18
. 19 Motion carried unanimously.
20
21 Commissioner Jones indicated he would represent the Commission at the next Council
22 meeting to be held October 23, 1984.
23
24 The Manager indicated there would be no need to hold the public hearing scheduled
25 for that time on the McGinn request for subdivision without platting/variance for
26 the property at 4021 Fordham Drive since the applicant had withdrawn his petition .
27
28 In the interim before the next scheduled hearings, several miscellaneous matters
29 were brought up for discussion by the Commission members.
30
31 Commissioner Jones reported that it appeared to him that the Equinox garages were
32 being reconstructed without the required fire wall separation between every four
33 stalls. Mr. Childs indicated the apartment owners had been told that both City
34 ordinances and state building codes require such separations, and said he was
35 surprised the construction was not in conformance since. Larry Hamer had been
36 closely supervising -the reconstruction of- the- storm damaged- property —He added-----
37
dded ----37 that the City was not able to require less than four stalls between separations
38 because the City Ordinance cannot be more restrictive than the state code. There
39 should be .less chance of vandalism with four stall separations than existed in the
40 garage before it was demolished by the storm;-Commissioner Jones said. The Com-
41 missioner then requested staff to see what they could do to get the insulation and .
42 storm debris cleared off the hill in back of the apartment building and just
43 across Silver _Lane from his own home.
44
45 :There was a brief discussion of how the Apache Shopping Center reconstruction was
46 progressing and :when the reopening of the mall is anticipated. Mr. Childs reported
47 both the City-owned bar and bottle. shop have reopened but still lack identification
or
-2-
1 because the sign company the Apache management had recommended had not .finished the •
2 sign for those facilities. This led to a report from the Manager on what the City
3 intends to do with the Apache: liquor operation once the lease runs out in 1986 and:
4 Mr. Childs told Commissioner -Bjorklund he anticipates the Planning Commission would
5 have some input into that decision through the Capital Improvements Plan they
6 would be-working on soon. When Commissioner Bjorklund termed the tattered
7 temporary signs on the Country Store to be a "blatant violation of the City's Sign
8 Ordinance," Mr. Childs agreed with him that it was time for the store's Grand
9 Opening signage to be removed. However, he also indicated that the Council had
10 agreed with his own decision to "go easy" on any Apache businesses which were
11 attempting to let the public know they had resumed operation in the center complex
12 even though the majority of stores had not reopened after the tornado. The
13 Manager then reported the controversial beauty shop signage across from Apache
14 was down in a heap in front of that facility.
15
16 Now that most of the planning decisions which had to be made after the tornado had
17 been-taken care of, Mr. Childs reported he and the Public Works Director were
18 almost ready to give a presentation of the Street Improvement Plan for the City
19 which he perceived the Commission would now have more time devote to than during
20 the busier development seasons. He agreed with Commissioner Bjorklund that it
2 1 would be essential to have a plan for replacing the deteriorating streets in
22 place long before the City has to take it to the residents and said the proposed
23 plan would address all the possibilities for funding such improvements.
24
25 Commissioner Hansen reported the St. Anthony Legion Post had voted to participate
26 with the New Brighton Post in a joint purchase of a building in New Brighton for •
27 which the revenues from the St. Anthony property would be used. The Commissioner
28 indicated he understood the Legion property which included the gas station on the
29 corner, had been appraised at $180,000 and the move to New Brighton would be con-
30 tingent upon finding a buyer for that parcel .
31
32 Mr. Childs reported Arkell is still seeking 53,000,000 construction financing for
33 the Kenzington project but he anticipates that funding would be found long before
34 the H.R.A. would even consider revoking the developer's Letter of Credit which
35 has to be renegotiated in November. The Manager indicated he perceives there would
36 be few buyers of the condominiums who would back out at this stage since they are
37 receiving i-nterest on their down payment money and are locked in at a lower purchase
38 price.
39
40 In a related matter, Mr. Childs reported the $1 .6 million H.U.D. financing for the
41 202 senior housing project is 99 percent certain and he anticipates the sponsor
42 would be in within a few months to let the Commission look at the final plans for
43 the project. He also reported that at a recent meeting with Walker, which he and
44 Commissioner Wagner had attended, the sponsor had said they expected construction
45 to start on about September of next year. Nothing is happening related to the
4 6 redevelopment of the Northgate property, the Manager said.
47
48 Commissioner Bjorklund indicated he appreciated being kept apprised of planning
49 developments because he perceives the Commission are often first on the firing
50 line for resident questions on such matters.
51
52 At 8:01 P.M. the Chair opened the public hearing scheduled for that time to con- •
5 3 sider .the request from Michael C. Anderson, 720 Sycamore Lane, Plymouth, Minnesota
5 4 for a two foot variance to the City Zoning Ordinance requirement for 15 foot total
55 sideyard setbacks for residential property to allow the construction of a 34 foot
-3-
1 wide home on the existing 47 X 156'
foot lot located at 2608 33rd .Avenue N.E. The
• 2 proposed structure would have an eight foot east setback and five foot setback
3 on- the west, as negotiated with--th.e. neighbors on those sides. .
4
5-Chair Zawislak read .the notice of hearing which had been mailed.to all property
6 owners of record within 250 -feet of the subject property. No one present indicated
7 failure to receive the notice or objected to its content.
8
9 The Manager had, in his October 12th memorandum, addressed the Anderson proposal
10 which had been given conceptual approval by the Commission during their September
11 18th meeting and had indicated that he perceived, because the lot is narrow, a
12 case could be made for a hardship based on topographic or size characteristics.
13 A call from the neighbor east of Mr. Anderson's property had prompted the Manager
14 to recommend the proposed house be sited closer to the west than the east lot line
15 where it would probably not interfere with Hertog's plans for redeveloping their
16 storm damaged property.
17
18 Mr. Anderson was present and indicated he had met with both Mrs—Taylor, 2700 -
19 33rd Avenue N.E. and John Hertog and had come to the same conclusion as the
20 Manager, that an 8 and 5 foot split to the east and west, respectively, would
21 work out best for all concerned and would not interfere with his own plans for
22 the property.
23
24 Mr. Anderson told Commissioner Jones he estimated the Taylor house itself to be
23 the normal 7-1/2 feet from the property line but the porch addition, for which
26 there must have been a variance sometime in- the past, was between four or five
27 feet -from his east lot line. However, Mr. Anderson said he anticipated no con
28 flirt with his property since the widest part of his front yard would be adjacent
29 to the porch. With the eight foot setback, there would be 13 feet between his and
30 Mrs. Taylor's house and, Mr'. Anderson told the Commissioners, he intends to line
31 his house up with hers.
32
33 The applicant said Mr. Hertog had told him his family would be tearing down the
34 old structure on the 10.0 X 100 foot lot, west of the Anderson property, and he
35 would anticipate no problems with setbacks for the home which would be built there.
36
37 The plans for the house Mr. Anderson proposes to build, a sketch of the house,
38 and the preliminary plans for subdividing the storm damaged Hertog property into
39 seven lots had been included in the agenda packet and Mr. Anderson told Com-
40 missioner Bjorklund the house plans had been adjusted to fit this lot from the set
41 of plans for the Rivard home which he had submitted for concept review September
42 18th. Mr. Childs told the Commissioner the lot was a platted lot of record and
43 the precedent had already been set for developing lots of a similar size just
44 around the corner on Roosevelt Street.
45
46 Staff had received no other calls, except that from Mrs. Taylor, related to the
47 proposal and none of the neighbors were present to provide input to the discussion.
48 The hearing was closed at 8:14 P.M.
49
50 Motion by Commissioner Jones and seconded by Commissioner Wagner to recommend the
.51. Council grant a two foot sideyard setback variance to the City Ordinance to
•
52 Michael ' C.' Anderson, 720 Sycamore Lane, Plymouth, MN for the 34 foot wide home he
53 proposes to construct on the lot of record at 2608 - 33rd Avenue. N.E. to replace
54 that which'- had been severely damaged in the April 26th tornado, on the condition
55 the house is sited to provide an eight foot sideyard setback on the east and a five
56 foot setback on the west, as requested by the neighbor to the east.
-4-
1 In recommending approval of the variance, -the Planning Commission finds that:
2
3 1 . The subject property conforms to the •City Ordinance requirement for total square
4 footage;
5
6 2. There. was no opposition to the project from any of the neighbors and the two
7 most affected property owners had provided input on the location of the house;
8
9 3. The purpose of the proposed variance is not based exclusively upon the desire
10 of the owner to increase the value or income potential of the parcel of land;
11
12 4. The precedent for allowing substandard lots of a similar size had- already been
13 established in the same neighborhood and the perceived hardship could be con-
14 sidered to have been caused by the City and not by persons having an interest.
15 in the parcel of land.
16
17 Motion carried unanimously.
18
19 At 8:22 P.M. , the Chair opened the hearing on a petition from Ronald L. Hansen for
20 a variance to the City Ordinance sideyard setback requirements which would allow
2 1 the construction of a six, foot addition to the existing one car garage on the west
22 side of the home at 2704 - 32nd Avenue N.E. , to within four feet, three inches, of
23 the property line, where 10 feet would be required by the Ordinance.
24
25 The notice of the hearing which had been published in the October 2nd Bulletin
26 and mailed to all property owners of record within 200 feet of the subject pro-
2 7 perty, was read by Chair Zawislak. No one present reported failure to receive the
28 notice or objected to its content. The Manager reported receiving no calls from
29 the neighbors regarding the proposal and no one appeared to discuss the request
30 other than the petitioner who is a member of the Planning Commission.
31
32 Commissioner Hansen had provided a sketch of the proposed addition as it related
33 to the existing house and the properties to the east and west of his home. He also
34 submitted a petition of approval of his plans which had been signed by all six of
35 the adjacent and abutting property owners. As he had shown on the sketch,- the
36 Commissioner pointed out that only seven and a half feet of the proposed garage
37 addition would be adjacent to his west neighbor's free standing garage which
38 exits, as his does, off 32nd Avenue N.E. and he indicated the Kalina home itself
39 faces Wilson Street N.E. and the remaining portion of Commissioner Hansen's garage
40 would face their backyard. The applicant reported there would be a corresponding .
41 expansion of his existing family room on the back of his home, which would not-
42 require a variance since it faces his backyard. The distance between eaves would
43 be just over seven feet, Commissioner Hansen estimated, which would -be more than
44 between some of the new homes which are being built on Belden Drive, according to
45 the measurements he had taken.
46
47 The Commissioner showed several photos of his existing property which documented
48 the tangle of electric and cable lines and a tilting electric light pole on the
49 southern corner of his lot directly behind the proposed garage addition. He said
50 the utility company was going to move the pole they had mistakenly placed within
51 three feet of his property line, but had indicated they could do nothing about the.
52 crooked pole which had been-erected hastily in wet ground after the tornado. •
5.3 .,Commi-ssioner Hansen indicated he would be seeking staff help in correcting the
54'- s:ituation,' ideally with the- installation of the utilities underground.
55
-5-
1:.The ,hearing was closed at 8:38 P.M:.. for.Commission. consideration of a. .recommendation
2 to the Council on the request.
-3 -
4 During the developmentof a motion; Commissioner Bjorklund questioned whether
5 permitting only YO .feet between adjoi-ning garage. structures complied with the
- .6 Ordinance intention regarding the provision of access for emergency vehicles and,
.7 in .response to the proposed .finding regard.i:ng two car garages, commented that one
8 of the Metropolitan Council 's major objections to St. Anthony's Zoning Ordinance
9 had been the requirement for two car garages, which poor people would .find too
10 expensive -to build The maker of the motion indicated his intention of leaving
11 that finding in the motion.
12
13 The Chair commented that the fact that the adjoining garage was a free standing
14 structure made it easier for him to recommend approval of the request.
15
16 Motion by Commissioner Jones and seconded by Commissioner Bowerman to recommend
17 the Council grant the requested 5 foot 9 inch sideyard setback variance to Ronald
18 L. Hansen, which would allow him to make the garage and family room addition he
19 proposes on the west and south side of his existing §arage and home at 2704 -
20 32nd Avenue N.E. , finding that:
21
22 1 . The proposed garage addition would be adjacent to a free standing garage on the
23 west and would not now, or likely ever, be adjacent to living quarters on that
24 property;
25
26 2. Permitting a two car garage would bring the structure into conformance with
• 27 the City Zoning Ordinance;
28
29 3. The original purpose of the City Ordinance requiring sideyard setbacks large
30 enough for emergency equipment and vehicles to gain access to the property
31 would not be a valid consideration in granting this variance because, with the
32 line of utility poles in the area behind the two garages, such access would
33 necessarily have to be on the other side of the house;
34
35 4. The purpose of the proposed variance is not based exclusively upon the desire
36 of the property owner to increase the value or income potential of the parcel
37 of land since it is perceived the cost of construction would exceed what the
3.8 property would appreciate because of the improvement;
39
40 5. There were no neighbor objections to the variance and, in fact, the applicant
41 had submitted a petition signed by six of the adjacent and abutting property
42 owners which indicated they had no objections to the proposal and supported the
43 granting of a variance for the garage addition as proposed.

Approval .
------------------------------------------------------------------------
TO: St. Anthony Planning Commission
FROM-: David M. Childs, City Manager
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY DISCUSSION OF SUBJECT: This is a request for preliminary plat approval.
from John Hertog for approval of a 7 lot subdivision as shown on- the attached pre-
liminary plat. The property is located on the east side of Edward Street between
32nd and 33rd Avenues N.E. and actually represents a replat of the property which
currently is mainly 50 foot lots as shown by the underlying property lines (dashed)
on the preliminary plat .
The subdivision ordinance requires a minimum width of 75 feet and minimum lot area
of 9000 square feet for interior lots and a minimum of 90 feet width and 11 ,000 square
feet in area for corner lots . These lots are slightly smaller than the required
size but represent a good compromise with the underlying lots , most of which are
buildable under the zoning ordinance even though they are only 50 feet wide. Increas-
ing the width from the proposal would result in a six lot subdivision with an average
size of over 12,000 square feet, which is much above our requirement of 9,000 square
feet and nearly double the recommendations of the Metro Council for the provision of
affordable housing.
ALTERNATIVES: Approve, modify or deny.
RECOINUTENDATION: Staff recommends approval .

COUNCIL MINUTES
October 9, 1984
The meeting was opened at. 7:30 P.M. with the Pledge of Allegiance led by Mayor
Pro Tem Ranallo.
Present for roll call : Marks, Ranallo, Enrooth, and Makowske.
Absent: Sundland.
Also present: David Childs, City Manager..
The Mayor Pro Tem indicated he wanted a clarification in the September 25th minutes
to indicate his neighbor's complaints about not being able to move his garage had
been made two years ago;, and not in response to Mrs. Smith 's reconstruction project.
Insertion of '-two years ago" after ".him" at the end of line 4, paragraph 10,
page 2, was accepted.

amended the minutes of the Council meeting held September 25, 1984.

Before acting on the school district billing, the Mayor Pro Tem asked Mr. Childs to •
extend his compliments to the Public Works Department for the maintenance of Park
View.
Motion by Councilman Marks and seconded by Councilman Enrooth to approve payment of
$6,000 to the St. Anthony School District for the City's use of the Park View

Motion carried unanimously.
Motion by Councilman Marks and seconded by Councilman Enrooth to. approve payment
of $350 to LeFevere, Lefler, Kennedy, O'Brien & Drawz for legal consultation with
Mr. Drawz regarding the New Brighton water contamination litigation and determination
of filing of papers necessary to protect the City's rights in a related contamination
problem.
Motion carried unanimously.
Councilman. Marks indicated the conflict in meeting night dates made it hard for
him to attend meetings of the Chemical Abuse Information Committee to which he is
the Council 's representative. Mr. Childs indicated he had in the past suggested
the Committee reschedule their meetings for the first rather than the second
Tuesday of the month. In a later discussion of the Committee's September 18th
minutes, the Manager indicated he had discussed the Council 's 1985 grant to the
Committee with Shelley Freeman and had been trying to contact one of the Committee
members .who had consistently been absent from the Committee meetings to ascertain •
that member's interest in continuing service on that board. The Mayor Pro Tem
questioned just how effective the Committee could be with only three members in
attendance for the meetings and Councilman Marks surmised that the lack of a con-
scientious effort to notify members in advance of meetings might account for
non-attendance. The Councilman indicated it was his intention to try to make the
Committee meeting scheduled that evening if the Council meeting did not run too
long and, at that time, he would reiterate the suggestion that Committee dates be
rescheduled not to conflict with Council meeting dates. If he's able to determine
how many Committee appointments would be necessary, Mr. Childs said, he would
publicize the openings in the City Newsletter which goes out the following week.
Mayor Pro Tem Ranallo reported the League of Minnesota Cities Federal Legislation
Committee on which he serves would be sending a resolution to. the National League of
Cities Conference recommending support for the, amendment of the Anti-trust Law
which would protect cities from monetary damages in anti-trust litigations. The
Mayor Pro Tem indicated a resident had recently requested of him that the City
refuse to issue a garbage hauling license for poor performance by a firm who
serves the City and Mayor Pro Tem Ranallo realized the protection the amendment
could provide the City if such action were taken, although he recognized that the
revised law would not prevent the firm from filing an injunction against such
action.
The indication that the Cable T.V. companies might be reneging on their promise to
the League of Cities that control of cable service would remain in the hands of the
cities for .at least four years, had prompted the Commission he serves :on to prepare •
another resolution urging the National League to work for an amendment to the cable
law which would oppose the transfer of.control , the Mayor Pro Tem reported, and he
said he had submitted the name of Mayor Sundland to be considered for appointment

to the National League .Cable T.V. - Committee whenever a vacancy opens up on that
body: Councilman Marks commented .that he perceived it might be too late for such
action since the League h6d initially failed to get behind legislation which might
have prevented- the transfer of control .
The September Fire Department Report and Liquor Sales Summary were ordered filed
following a report by the Manager that the bottle shop at Apache was open and Ray
Nelson anticipates the Apache on-sale facility could open the following week.
Mr. Childs said, because of the economies involved, the decision had been made to
carpet the bar rather than to convert it into a peanut bar.
As an addendum to the .October 1st staff notes ' reference to the Police Chief's
attendance at a three day training session on law enforcement, the Manager said
Chief Hickerson had reported there had also been a very helpful session on how
cities could determine their manpower needs. Councilman Marks indicated he would
certainly appreciate hearing any new suggestions which might aid the City in'
making such determinations in the future.
According to Mr. Childs the. League of Minnesota Cities had developed a resolution
urging the state legislature to take a close look at what 's going on in the Public
Employees Retirement Association where eight Association members are being sued
by other members for appointing, during a closed meeting, the P.E.R.A. union member
to serve as the Association's counsel for a combined salary of $113,000 and a
potential $70,000 a year pension for Mr. Allers within five years. A resolution
• supporting the League's position would be provided for Council consideration during
their next meeting, Mr. Childs indicated.
The September 27th meeting summary of actions taken by the Citizens Advisory Com-
mittee to the Urban Hennepin County CDBG program had reported the designation of the
City to receive $6,500 from_the-1-983 Jobs Bill additional appropriations as
assistance in clearing the Mimosa Restaurant site for the erection of the senior
housing project. The Manager surmised the City might have gotten this grant because
he had personally appeared before the County Commissioners to protest the City's
being left off previous funding and had been assured by the Commissioners that
St. Anthony wouldn't be overlooked in the next round of fundings. Mr. Childs
pointed out that these additional revenues would relieve some of the pressure on
the 19.85 budget.
The Council members had also been furnished a copy of the October 3rd letter from
the Coordinating Engineer on the County Road D project which the Manager said he
perceived to be a positive indication that, unless all federal funds for such
project were cut off for some reason or another, the City would at last be getting
a new road starting in the spring of 1985.
In the Ramsey County League of Local Government October newsletter, which the
Manager had distributed, it was reported that several Metropolitan Council rep-
resentatives would be present at the October 17th, RCLLG to answer some of the
concerns about the role and effectiveness of the Metro Council . The newsletter
gave a more detailed report on the -insight given the organization related to the
Minnesota taxes and tax structure at their September 19th meeting as reported by
• Councilman Makowske at the last Council meeting.

Because the public hearing on the 1985 Revenue Sharing allocation had been scheduled
for 8:00 P.M. , the meeting was recessed from 7:49 P.M. to that time, with the Mayor
Pro Tem opening the hearing by reading the notice of the hearing which had been
published September 25th in the Bulletin.
The Manager reported receiving no written comments on this budget and there were
no residents present to-give the Council the benefit of their thinking related to
the use of .these funds. Mr. Childs indicated the funding amounts had not changed
appreciably over the years. The Mayor Pro Tem said the League of Cities had
remained dedicated to those funds and at the last National Conference had resisted
any amendments which might affect the funding for cities who practice energy
savings.
The hearing was closed at 8:03 P.M.

• At 8:05 P.M:; the. Mayor Pro Tem opened the public-hearing on the 1985 City budget
by 'reading the notice of the hearing which had been published in the September 25th
Bulletin. Mr. Childs indicated he had received_ no written comments on the.-budget
except the October 3rd letter from Chris Clausen, the Executive Director of the
Northwest Suburban Youth .Service, related to the level of funding for his organi-
zation, which had been included in the agenda packet.
Mr. Childs had attached to his October 5th memorandum summarizing the $1 ,609,330
1985 budget, charts illustrating the monetary effects the proposed tax levy of
12.674 mills would have on the average $80,000 home in St. Anthony as well as one
whose market, value is $100,000, and documenting the primary reasons for increasing
the taxes beyond the corresponding 4% budget increase, as being the 17.9% decrease
in budgeted revenues from the liquor operation and a 9% drop in state aids since
the 1983 allocation.
As a point of reference for a discussion of Mr. Clausen' s letter, a copy of the
Council 's April 10th minutes reporting on previous Council action related to the
Youth Bureau funding had been included in the agenda packet. The minutes indicated
the Council had at that time authorized City sponsorship of a federal grant under
which youth intervention services were to continue to be provided in the City by
the Youth Service Bureau at the same time the Council had agreed to give considera-
tion at budget time to participation in a joint powers agreement with nine other
suburban communities under which that service would be continued in 1985 at a cost
to the City of 56,883, to be assessed on. a .per. capita basis. No formal request
had been received in the interim and the funding was overlooked in the budget
• process and not included in the tax levy. When this omission was brought to the
Council 's attention' September. 25th, the decision had been to fund the service at
a 51 ,500 level from the Council Contingency Fund, the general consensus being that
the project should not automatically be funded each year, but rather treated like
the Chemical Abuse Information Committee support and considered on an annual basis
at budget time.
When the head of the Youth Service Bureau had learned of the Council decision not to
participate in the joint powers agreement, he wrote to the City officials indicat-
ing the $1 ,500 level of funding would force his organization to discontinue their
services to the City at the end of 1984. Mr. Clausen was present and amended his
statement by saying that, rather than to force a hasty decision by the Council that
evening, which he perceived could have an adverse effect on the City's young people,
and taking full responsibility for not making a formal proposal as he had in the nine
other suburban communities, the Bureau was prepared to "live with the amount you
have allocated for 1985, with some adjustments in the level of service, as long as
we don 't perceive a strong flavor on the Council against signing the joint. powers
agreement later on, in which case the service could not be provided in 1985 for
only a funding of $1 ,500.
Mr. Clausen indicated St. Anthony is the only community in either Ramsey or
Hennepin. -counties which hasn't funded youth intervention services. and he s.aid all
the other'communities consider that expenditure to be money well spent to keep their
young people out of health care, juvenile court, and welfare systems. The. Youth
Bureau. official pointed out that, as indicated in his October 3rd letter, the
Bureau had budgeted $21 ,000 for services they propose to provide the City for the
• $6,881,investment, .with the difference being made up from other funding sources.
In addition to the youth intervention services the City has now, St. Anthony would
also be the beneficiary of three other programs extended to the other nine com-
munities. These would be a youth employment service, a training program for school
personnel to help troubled young people; and a unique program where the skills of
the youths are utilized to aid senior citizens with their home chores.

grams in other -communi.ties :and..said 18%young people had-been counselled in
St. Anthony: Although he could not specifically identify those persons, the
Executive Director said the counselling involved help with peer problems; incor-
rigible and abusive beha.vior. at. home;. runaways; drinking problems; and one case
involving suicidal behavior.
John Sullivan, who had replaced Ron Taylor as the-Bureau counselor in St: Anthony,
was introduced to the Council and told them his office was in space donated by the
school district in the same building as City Hall . Mr. Clausen indicated
Mr. Sullivan might not be able to continue to serve as counselor but would be
replaced with two other staff people, one a woman, who might bring a different
perspective to the service.
Mayor Pro Tem Ranallo. told Mr. Clausen he had been on the Council for seven years
and perceives it to be a very conservative body, which sees itself as accountable
to the taxpayers for every cent that is spent and goes to great lengths to .prove
to the citizenry that every service provided is essential . The Mayor Pro Tem
said he respected the need for confidentiality, but perceived this service would
have to become more visible to the residents and the people who work with the
community's young people than it has been in the past.
Councilman Makowske indicated she perceived providing this type of social service
would involve a type* of policy decision and commitment by the Council than had
ever been made before, since all social service funding in the past had been
provided either through the school or county. She agreed with the Mayor Pro Tem
that $7,000 would be a substantial amount for the Council to account for to the
residents.
The Mayor Pro Tem asked Mr. Clausen whether he was saying that, if the City didn 't
commit that evening to pay the assessed amount in 1986, services would be cut off
for 1985, and if so, indicated that was a commitment he was not prepared to make
on the little information he had on the actual cost of the services which had
already been provided. Mr. Clausen responded by saying that was not what he meant
but, rather, he was only asking whether the Council would be open to considering
participation in the joint powers agreement in 1986 after he had satisfactorily
. answered their concerns about the program.
. Councilman Enrooth warned Mr. Clausen that at the time of that decision he would
have to have an awful lot of information which would justify committing the City
to paying out S70,000 over ten years for the service. The Councilman agreed with
Councilman Makowske's assessment that this program involved a "whole new ball game
for the City" since it meant providing social services which had not been the
practice in the past.
Councilman Marks disagreed that signing the joint powers agreement would be a long
time commitment, perceiving the expenditure would come up every year at budget time
for Councill-approval . However, it was his personal belief that St. Anthony would
be just like .the other communities who once they are in the program, perceive it to
be so valuable they want to continue participation. He wondered if a vote on the
:budget could be delayed long enough for the City to conduct ,a special work session •
with the Youth Service Bureau representatives. Mr. Childs told him that, although
the budget 'did not have to be passed that evening, the tax levy did, and if the
City decides: to go with the program in 1985, there would probably have to be a
special levy for the $6,883.

The Mayor ..Pro,:Tem
7-The' Mayor. ..Pro,:Tem said he perceived the Bureau 'Di-rector,-.was willing- to leave. the
funding .at the level .set by the Council for the time-being. and: suggested a work
.session could be scheduled sometime long before the: next budget is set, where
Mr. Clausen could provide-:the necessary information the Council would need to
answer to their constituencies for -expending almost $7,000 on a program like
this. Mayor Pro Tem Ranallo said he perceived at this time the Council had been
provided with only intangibles and he foresaw the residents would demand more
tangible evidence of the worth of the service.
Mr. Clausen requested that before the work session is held, the Council members
talk to League of Cities members who are participating i,n the program to find out
first hand how they see the program,lis worth to their communities. Mr. Childs told
Councilman Marks he would not anticipate the City Attorney would find much fault
with a document which had already been passed by nine other city attorneys.
There was no one else present to provide input towards the budget decision and the
hearing was closed at 8:42 P.M.
Motion by Mayor Pro Tem Ranallo and seconded by Councilman Enrooth to adopt the
resolution which approves the 1984 tax levy of $817,500, collectible in 1985, and

Doug Jones gave the report on the Planning Commission meeting held October 16th, as
reflected in the minutes of that meeting. He noted that the required dividers are now
being installed in the Equinox garages.
The Commission had unanimously recommended the Council grant Michael Anderson a two
foot sideyard setback variance which would enable him to replace the 1910 storm damaged
structure on the 47 X 156 foot l.ot at 2608 - 33rd Avenue N.E. with a 34 foot wide home
which the petitioner intends to sell , Commissioner said. He indicated the primary
reason the Commissioner members had little or no problem with the proposal had been
that fact that Mr. Anderson had agreed to site the house closer to his west property
line where it would abut the back yards of the property the Hertog's propose to
develop for residential lots along Edward Street N.E.
Mayor Sundland reported assuring Mrs. David Taylor, 2700-33rd Avenue N.E. , who lives •
just east of the subject property, that the Anderson house would be built eight feet
away from her property line. Mr. Anderson was present and confirmed that the house
would be built no closer. The petitioner indicated he would have preferred to have
a four foot variance to work with, but understood why the City would be reluctant
to give him any more than two feet.
When Councilman Ranallo questioned whether the City might be setting a precedent for
47 foot wide lots for the Hertog {property, the Manager told him that property had
originally been platted for 50 foot lots, but, as indicated on the preliminary plat
for their property, which had been included in the agenda packet, the Hertog's intend
to develop 70 foot wide (or larger) lots instead.
Motion by Councilman Marks and seconded by Councilman Enrooth to grant a two foot
variance to the City Ordinance requiring 15 foot sideyard setbacks to Michael C.
Anderson, 720 Sycamore Lane, Plymouth, MN, for the 34 foot wide home he proposes to
construct on the lot of record at 2608-33rd Avenue N.E. to replace the smaller home
which had been severely damaged in the April 27th tornado, on the condition the house
is sited to provide an eight foot sideyard setback on the east and five foot setback
on the west, as requested by the neighbor to the east.
In granting this variance the Council finds, as did the Planning Commission, that:
1 . The subject property conforms to the City Ordinance requirement for total square
footage;
2. There was no opposition-.to the project:from.any :of the neighbors and .the two most
affected property owners had provided input on the location of the proposed house; •
e4 i
-3-
v

3. The purpose .of..the proposed variance is not based exclusively upon the desire of
• the owner to- incr.ease.the value or :income potential. of the parcel of land; and,
4. The precedent :for. al-Towing substandard lots -of a: similar size had already been
established in the same neighborhood and the. perceived hardship could be considered
l to have been caused by the City, and not by persons having an interest in the
parcel of land.
1
Motion carried unanimously.
The Commission spokesman next reported that all but one of the Commissioners (Hansen
had abstained) had voted to recommend the Council approve the request from Commissioner
Hansen for a sideyard setback variance which would allow addition to an existing one
-:� car garage to within four- feet, three inches of his west property line at 2704-32nd
Avenue N.E. , where ten feet would be required by the City Zoning Ordinance. Com-
missioner Jones indicated the main reason the other Commissioners had not objected to
j the expansion had been that the garage would face another detached double garage
and the back yards of homes which front on Wilson Street N.E.
Ron Hansen was present to discuss his addition plans, which had been included in the
agenda packet, and confirmed that the resultant garage would be smaller than the
normal double garage and that he had a full five foot sideyard setback on the east
{
side of his home.
' In response to the comments about the inaccessibility between the two garages for
i. emergency vehicles, Councilman Marks indicated he perceived the City had never
• realistically addressed that ordinance requirement since the practice city-wide had
been to permit people to plant trees and shrubbery, and even fences, on the back of
their lots which would make them inaccessible for emergency vehicles. There was a
general concurrence that this was a valid assessment of the existing situation in
St. Anthony.
Motion by Commissioner Ranallo and seconded by Commissioner Marks to grant the requested
five foot nine inch sideyard setback variance to the City Ordinance requirement for
15 foot sideyard setbacks to Ronald L. Hansen which would allow him to make the
garage and family room addition he proposes on his home at 2704-32nd Avenue N.E. ,
finding, as did the Planning Commission, that:
3
1 . The proposed garage addition would be adjacent to a free standing garage on the
west and would not now, or likely ever, be adjacent to living quarters on that
property;
2. Permitting a two car garage would bring the structure into conformance with the
R City Zoning Ordinance;
3. The original purpose of the City Ordinance requiring sideyard setbacks large
enough for emergency equipment and vehicles to gain access to the property would
not be a valid consideration in granting this variance because, with the line of
utility poles in the area behind the two garages, such access would necessarily
have to be on the other side of the house;
4. The purpose of the proposed variance is not based exclusively upon the desire of
the property owner to increase the value or income potential of the parcel of
land, since it is perceived the cost of construction would exceed what the property
would appreciate because of the improvement; and,
-4-
5. There were no nei:ghbor..obj.ections, to the vari-ance-.and, in fact, the .applicant •
had submitted 'a petition •.s i:gned.:by- s i x of: the 'adjacent: and. ab utt i ng property
owners which indicated they had no objections to the proposal and supported
granting the variance- for- the garage addition. as proposed.
Motion carried unanimously.
At the conclusion of his presentation, Commissioner Jones reported he had talked
to Richard Stroncek, owner of the Rexall Drug in Apache, who had indicated his store
was being forced out of the shopping center so a cut rate drug company could operate
in the mall . The Commissioner indicated he recognized that the City could not
dictate the type of businesses which could operate in Apache, nor could the Council
make any official -statements about a matter which was in litigation, but he requested
that during any future discussions with Apache management they be made aware that
there is a great deal of community disappointment that this long time merchant would
no longer be operating in the center and -providing the personalized service related
to medications.
Before the October 9th St. Anthony Chemical Abuse Information Committee minutes were
ordered filed as informational , Councilman Marks reported that by the time he had
gotten away from the Council meeting that evening, the meeting had been adjourned.,
but in the meantime, he had gotten an agreement from the Committee members to change
some of the future meeting dates to avoid conflicts with Council meetings.
The September Financial Report was also ordered filed.
Don Hickerson, Chief of Police was present for the consideration of the August and •
September Police Reports. The Mayor. told him he was pleased with the new report
format and its inclusion of the dispositions of litigations. He asked the Chief to
extend the Council ' s thanks for such informative reports to Captains Engstrom and
Thoemke. The Council concurred that the cover page should be continued on a monthly
basis and used to make an annual summation at the end of the year.
Chief Hickerson reported he had developed a slide presentation on burglaries in the
City which would be given to the Kiwanis Club the next day and to the Council at
a later date. The Chief indicated he also hoped to give his presentation to neighbor-
hood groups in the hopes of getting residents interested in establishing the Crime
Watch program in their neighborhoods. Some of the slides are graphic examples of
burglaries where forced entry was unnecessary since doors and garages were left
open and in one case the garage door opener button had been installed on the outside
of the building.
During the consideration of the October 17th staff notes, Mr. Childs indicated he
perceived there had been some misunderstanding about the cheese shop in the liquor
warehouse. He said the proprietor of the establishment also owns Bev's Cheese House
in Apache, which was closed down by the tornado and she leases her store space from
the liquor operation.
The October 16th letter from the Ramsey County Commissioners sought nominations for
the position on the Rice Creek Watershed District Board of Managers which is now
held by a New Brighton resident, whose term of office expires in January. The
Manager indicated heperceived there might be a strong case. for having a district •
manager from the St. :Anthony portion of 'Ramsey County and he agreed to research

study commission might.. also be a good candidate.
The Association of Metropolitan Municipalities' report on metropolitan activities
of interest to its members was noted and ordered filed as informational .
Mr. Childs reported the agreement with Max Saliterman for the purchase of the Mimosa
Restaurant property calls for a $25,000 option payment on November 1st, which the
H.R.A. does not have. He said he would research the possibility that there might
be CDBG funds available for this purpose, but, in the meantime, recommended that
funds be loaned to the H.R.A. from the City.
a Motion by Councilman Marks and seconded by Councilman Ranallo to set up a transfer of
$25,000 at 10% interest from the City' s General Reserves Fund for a period of 12
months, or until the transfer of the Mimosa property is completed.

Motion carried unanimously.
Because the new state law regulating charitable gambling would not go into effect
until March of 1985, the Manager reported there would be an interim time period where
local charitable organizations in the City would not be able to operate their usual
fund raisers under the Ordinance the Council had adopted at their last meeting.
r Mr. Childs distributed copies of the proposed Ordinance amendment which had been
drawn up by the City Attorney under which temporary gambling permits could be granted
• at the Council 's- discretion until next March. The Manager suggested a $100 application
fee would be reasonable to cover administration costs.
Motion by Councilman Marks and seconded by Councilman Makowske to waive the second
and third readings and adopt Ordinance 1984-006 which becomes effective October 23,
' 1984, and to impose a 5100 application fee for gambling permits to cover administra-
tive costs.

Motion carried unanimously.
The water and sewer bills, which had gone out that week, represented a 47% sewer
rate increase and a 12% water rate- increase. The billings also spelled out that
of the money received by the City for sewer charges, 19% went for City costs and
81% would be passed through to the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission, according
to the Manager, who told 'Councilman Makowske the Public Works Director had partici-
pated in the calibration of the metering stations. However, he noted that the rate
of increase in the MWCC charges to .the City had slowed appreciably since their
representatives had met with the Council .
Councilman Makowske reported on her attendance at the October 17th Ramsey County
League of Local Government where Chuck Wiger, the City 's representative on the
Metropolitan Council , had reported on the Metro Council and its effectiveness. They
City Council member indicated she had been impressed with the discussion of pro-
vision of transportation for the elderly, which Councilman Makowske perceived should
be a concern of City officials as well . In lieu of a lengthy verbal report on the
meeting, the Councilman indicated she would be passing around pieces of literature
she had collected at the meeting which might be of interest to the rest of, the
Council and Mayor.
Mr. Childs said he believes an insurance settlement for the Hertogs ' property would •
be made very soon and he anticipates the owners would be in during November to
present their proposal for replatting their property into seven residential lots.
The Manager has had no further information regarding the Johnson plans.
Mayor Sundland indicated he and Mr. Childs would be meeting with the Metropolitan
Airport Commission Noise Abatement Staff the following morning and said he intended
to request the Commission take sound measurements in the City, as they have in other
communities, so City officials would have objective points of reference for dis-
cussion with residents who call complaining about the airplane noise levels over
St. Anthony.
In his October 8th memorandum related to the Sister Cities International , the Manager
had reported that there had been over 10 community organizations who had expressed a
desire to be represented on a proposed committee related to the Sister Cities
program. Mr. Childs had also indicated he perceived there would be no problem with
justifying the expenditure of $100 for membership fees with such a positive response
from the community and had given his recommendations on how the advisory committee
should be set up and administered by the Council . When the discussion turned to the
selection of a Sister City for St. Anthony, Councilman Makowske commented that, with
the level of interest in the program which had been demonstrated by such a varied
cross section of the community, she. perceived there would probably be no reason .for
limiting the contact to only one city.
Motion by Councilman Ranallo and seconded by Councilman Marks to authorize the City's
participation in the Sister Cities International Program by payment of the $100
membership fee; to set up a Sister Cities Advisory Committee made up of representa- •
tives from the .various organizations who have indicated an interest in participation

CITY OF ST. ANTHONY
HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MINUTES
October 23, 1984
The meeting was called to order by Chairman Sundland at 8:55 P.M.
Present for roll call : Sundland, Vice Chair Enrooth, Secretary/Treasurer Marks,
and Commissioners Ranallo and Makowske.
Also present: David Childs, .Executive Director; and Richard Krier of the Derrick
Companies, Consultant.
Motion by Commissioner Ranallo and seconded by Secretary/Treasurer Marks to approve
as submitted the minutes of the Housing and Redevelopment Authority meeting held
September 25, 1984.
Motion carried unanimously.
Motion by Commissioner Ranallo and seconded by Vi-ce Chair Enrooth to approve
payment of $175.00 to Dorsey & Whitney for legal services rendered during August,
1984, related to the supplemental agreement for the 202 project and the report
to the auditors.
Motion carried unanimously.
The Executive Director had informed the H.R.A. members in his October 19th memorandum
that the Consultant had concluded, after comparing the property, reuse, and fi;:ture
appraisals, and relocation estimate for the Walbon property with the cash flows run
by the Springsted Company in June, that the proposed redevelopment of the Walbon
property at 33rd and -Old Highway 8 for townhomes to be feasible and Mr. Krier had
recommended the H.R.A. begin negotiations with the Walbons. In his memo, Mr. Childs
had listed the six major steps he perceived the H.R.A. would have to take to pro-
ceed with the project.
The Consultant was present and first congratulated the H.R.A. on being selected for
202 funding for their proposed senior housing project .on Kenzie Terrace, which
Mr. Krier indicated, he perceived to be a major accomplishment for the community.
A brief discussion ensued related to what effect the 202 project and the Walbon
redevelopment might have on the securing of construction financing for the Kenning-
ton project. The H.R.A. Consultant indicated he believes construction financing for
the Kenzington project would be made available within the next few weeks but he did
not perceive either the 202 project or the Walbon development could have much
effect on securing that financing, since the major objection from financial institu-
tions had been their disappointment that they could anticipate so little mortgage
financing since all but one of the 60 prospective condominium buyers had indicated
they intend to pay. cash. The most recent meeting with one of those institutions had
been rescheduled because one of the bankers was out of town, Mr. Childs said.
Mr. Krier discussed various aspects of the memorandum to the H.R.A. which he had
• distributed at the start of the meeting in which he had described the -Walbon
project; reported on the real estate valuation set for the property and recommended
the action the H.R.A. should take to proceed with the project. The Consultant also -
-2-
told Commissioner Makowske he' would .see- what he could find out about the financing
for -the cooperative housing-project which is underway in the Lee School building
in Robbinsdale.
Motion by- Commissioner Ranallo and .seconded by the Secretary/Treasurer to authorize
the Executive Director to proceed with the Walbon Redevelopment Project by directing
a review appraisal and scheduling negotiations with the property owner based on
that appraisal , with an H.R.A. work session to be called whenever Mr. Childs deems
it necessary to discuss those- negotiations.
Motion carried unanimously.
The Executive Director reported he had tentatively scheduled a meeting with the
property owners the following afternoon.
Motion by Secretary/Treasurer Marks and seconded by Vice Chair Enrooth to adjourn
the St. Anthony Housing and Redevelopment Authority meeting at 9:08. P.M.
Motion carried unanimously.
Respectfully submitted,
Helen Crowe, Secretary
