A.Ordinance 2021-03; An Ordinance Amending Chapter 152 of the St. Anthony City Code,46
known as the Zoning Ordinance, Amending the R-4 Multiple Family Zoning District.47
48
1
City Planner Steve Grittman reviewed at their April meeting the Planning Commission discussed 1
staff-proposed amendments to the R-4 Zoning District during a work session. At that session, the 2
Commission agreed that the proposed amendment, with some additions and modifications, was 3
ready to proceed to consideration at a public hearing for formal Planning Commission 4
recommendation. 5
6
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on the updated language at its July 20, 2021 7
Regular Meeting. No resident or public comments were received. The intent of the update is to 8
create a zoning district for multiple family development that is consistent with the 9
Comprehensive Plan in terms of density, allows for more contemporary building size and scope, 10
and identifies a series of baseline performance standards and expectations for any new such 11
development. 12
13
A copy of the current regulations in place, as well as an updated table-form document that lists 14
the series of potential amendments to the district was provided to the City Council for review. 15
Comments are provided for each proposed change discussing the rationale behind the new 16
language. Also provided is ordinance-form language, and a red-lined version identifying all the 17
changes from the current code. 18
19
The current district language was established many years ago, and reflects a more moderate 20
density, suburban style of multi-family development. In the past few years, the City has 21
considered multi-family projects on four different sites. One of these projects did not proceed. 22
Each of those were required to utilize the PUD zoning process due to a series of modifications 23
the projects required from typical R-4 regulations, including density, setbacks, parking 24
calculations, height, and other factors. 25
26
The current R-4 District restricts density to anywhere from about 13 units per acre up to 24 units 27
per acre, depending upon the size of the building. Over the past two years, the City considered 28
and adopted, an updated Comprehensive Plan that directs development in high density zoning 29
districts to between 20 and 40 units per acre. 30
31
The items included in the last stage of updating are: 32
• Modify the prior staff-proposed allowable maximum height from sixty feet and five 33
stories to fifty feet and four stories. 34
• Address the proposed requirement for location of senior multi-family on a collector or 35
arterial street (due to concerns over existing facilities that may not comply with this 36
standard). The proposed language includes an alternative that the facility is served by 37
alternative transit options, either public or privately offered. 38
• Adding requirements to the “General Regulations” in Section 152.105 relating to: 39
o Building materials; 40
o Landscaping; and 41
o Sustainability. 42
43
Planning Staff and Planning Commission recommend approval of the proposed amendments. 44
These changes will make multi-family development more straightforward in those areas where it 45
2
is proposed, set specific minimum expectations for such development, and bring the zoning 1
ordinance more closely into conformance with the Comprehensive Plan. 2
3
Councilmember Randle asked if this is in response to the concessions made to the Interstate 4
project or has it been in the works for a while. Mr. Grittman stated this was being discussed prior 5
to COVID. 6
7
Councilmember Walker asked about the requirements for building materials. Mr. Grittman stated 8
the recommendation is that a threshold percentage of exterior wall be a higher level of building 9
materials. Architecture and building materials will be part of the project review. 10
11
Councilmember Jenson stated he liked the way the basic changes were summarized. He asked 12
under item H including one resident at least 55 years old. Mr. Grittman stated one occupant 13
needs to be 55 years old or older but other occupants in same unit could be under 55. 14
15
Mayor Stille asked about item H also and believe it needs to say all units need to have at least 16
one occupant 55 years old or older. Mayor Stille also asked about if restrictions change and how 17
can the City protect themselves. Mr. Grittman stated a Development Contract would need to be 18
in place and the purpose of the project cannot be changed. Some projects may be age restricted 19
with subsidies. 20
21
Councilmember Webster thanked Mr. Grittman and the Planning Commission for their work on 22
this. She asked what the Planning Commission would be reviewing next. Mr. Grittman stated he 23
did not bring his list. Mayor Stille suggested this item be voted on and then Mr. Grittman can 24
provide next steps for the Planning Commission. He agreed the work by the Planning 25
Commission and Staff was well done. 26
27
Motion by Councilmember Jenson, seconded by Councilmember Webster, to adopt Ordinance 28
2021-03; An Ordinance amending the R-4, Multiple Family Zoning District, Section 152.100 – 29
152.105, it its entirety, with the addition of the word “all” by Mayor Stille. 30
31
Motion carried 5-0. 32
33
Mr. Grittman stated Staff has been reviewing the Code for conflicts and some with entail zoning 34
ordinance changes and code changes. The allowed use of single-family residential property in the 35
community and how redevelopment and rehabilitation is treated to have owners reinvest in their 36
properties. 37

VI. GENERAL BUSINESS OF COUNCIL. 4
5
A. Resolution 21-063; a Resolution Receiving Feasibility Report and Ordering Plans and 6
Specifications for the 2022 Street and Utility Improvements. 7
8
City Engineer Justin Messner reviewed the 2022 Street and Utility Improvement Project 9
feasibility report for the reconstruction of Rankin Road from 33rd Avenue NE to 31st Avenue NE. 10
11
The feasibility report also proposes the following locations for bituminous mill and overlay: 12
• Crestview Drive from 31st Avenue NE to 29th Avenue NE. 13
• Armour Terrace from Silver Lake Road to Crestview. 14
• Bell Lane from Armour Terrace to Crestview Drive. 15
• East Gate Road from Crestview Drive to Rankin Road. 16
• Coolidge Street Alley from Murray Avenue to 29th Avenue NE. 17
• Murray Avenue/St. Anthony Boulevard Alley from Wilson Street to Coolidge Street. 18
• 29th Avenue NE/St. Anthony Boulevard Alley bounded by 29th Avenue NE. 19
• Roosevelt Street Alley bounded by St. Anthony Boulevard and Stinson Boulevard. 20
21
Mr. Messner provided a power point presentation. He reviewed the method for selection of 22
reconstruction projects is flood relief effort, existing utility deterioration, pavement condition, 23
and adjacent infrastructure replacement (construction phasing). The method for selection for 24
mill & overlay projects is to maintain previously reconstructed roadways (age), pavement rating 25
– PCI and pavement cores. The street and utility improvements include sanitary sewer system 26
improvements (pvc pipe), water distribution system improvements (watermain and water 27
service), and drainage improvements (storm sewer will be added where it is missing). 28
29
The project costs and funding breakdown were reviewed by Mr. Messner. The total street and 30
utility improvements for 2022 total $2,293,600.00 of which $483,070.00 will come from 31
assessments and $1,810,530.00 will be City cost. Maps showing the properties to be assessed 32
were shown for the Street Reconstruction and the Mill & Overlay. Mr. Messner will recheck the 33
Mill & Overlay Improvements as to why it isn’t 50-50. 34
35
Mr. Messner reviewed the Project Schedule in detail. Construction is scheduled to begin 36
Spring/Summer 2022 with final paving Spring/Summer 2023. 37
38
Residents can sign up to receive email and/or text message project status updates by visiting the 39
project webpage under the “projects” tab on the City’s website at http://www.savmn.com. The 40
complete feasibility study was provided for Council review. 41
42
Councilmember Webster thanked Mr. Messner for the overview. She asked about Rankin Road 43
and use of Municipal State Aid Fund. She asked what are the qualifications for a street to use 44
those funds. Mr. Messner reviewed the Municipal State Aid Process. Cities that have over 5000 45
residents, are given this money to reconstruct their roadways. The amount depends on the miles 46
4
of roadway maintained. There are some restrictions such as use for collector roadways. It is an 1
interior collector roadway. 2
3
Mr. Don Jensen, 3004 Armour Terrace, appeared before the Council. He stated they are in the 4
largest Mill & Overlay area. He has been a resident since 2004. He reviewed his background in 5
the City. He asked the City to look at how the feasibility study is done and how resident’s are 6
assessed. He represents the residents in his neighborhood. He suggested there are better ways to 7
inform residents about these projects. Mr. Jensen provided the Council with written 8
documentation. Mr. Jensen commented on the feasibility and stated most residents don’t 9
understand the drawings provided in the feasibility study. He suggested some of the zones be 10
moved for feasibility to 3-4 years. They would like to see the preliminary cost sheets at the 11
upcoming meetings with residents. He is personally concerned about the storm sewer in his 12
neighborhood. Information about paying off assessments needs to be explained. He asked about 13
using copper line for water service to the homes. Alternatives are available and should be 14
considered. He asked for the upcoming public hearing meetings, he asked for some clarity for the 15
residents. 16
17
Mayor Stille stated regarding the assessment questions, Shelly Rueckert created a study on the 18
history of how people pay off their assessments. For the engineering questions, Justin can 19
comment on as many as he can address. Mr. Messner stated the numbers where 50-50 was 20
incorrect of the breakdown between assessments and city’s cost. Some work is done on sanitary 21
sewer when mill & overlay work is done. The castings and barrier shields are put in and are not 22
assessed to residents. Gate valve covers are replaced and not assessed to residents. Mr. Messner 23
stated he understands how it can be confusing when residents see a street being reconstructed 24
when it was scheduled 2-3 years later. Storm sewer was stubbed. There are a number of 25
roadways without storm sewer such as Hilldale Road. If the State pays for a road with MSA 26
funds a very detailed study needs to be done and approved. This is the reason the design is 27
slightly different on Rankin Road. Mr. Messner referred Mr. Jenson to the method of selection 28
for road reconstruction. He has ridden with public works on each of the streets included. Total 29
buy-in is received from City officials. He maximizes the dollar investment for each project. The 30
ductal iron vs. C900 is a hot topic in the industry. Many communities Mr. Messner works with 31
uses C900 pipe but there are issues with the use of that. 32
33
Mayor Stille stated Don Jensen’s comments are received. There are many concerns when 34
looking at doing things differently. Some of the major projects are being shortened. Mill & 35
Overlays are catching up. Council is committed to taking care of the City’s infrastructure. 36
Mayor Stille suggested if Don has any more questions he can speak with Mr. Messner or bring 37
up at the future meetings regarding the projects. 38
39
Motion by Councilmember Randle, seconded by Councilmember Webster, to approve 40
Resolution 21-063; a Resolution Receiving Feasibility Report and Ordering Plans and 41
Specifications for the 2022 Street and Utility Improvements. 42

Motion carried 5-0. 44

MEMORANDUM
To: St. Anthony Village City Council
From: Shelly Rueckert, Finance Director
Date: August 24, 2021 City Council Meeting
Request: Approval of fund balance Policy as revised
BACKGROUND
Discussions regarding the revision of the Fund balance were part of the 2021 Goal setting. The proposed
revisions were reviewed at the City Council work session on 8/20/21. The substantive revisions proposed were:
•Increasing and expanding the minimum fund balance range from 30-35% to 35-50%
•Providing for the Minimum Fund balance to be re-set at 42.5% annually – as feasible
•Transfer of excess fund balance may be directed to capital or special revenue funds
The attached redlined fund balance policy incorporates these revisions.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of Resolution 21-0xx
ATTACHMENTS:
•Redlined policy
•Resolution 21-064

Fund Balance Policy
Purpose:
It is important to establish sound financial management policies to ensure financial stability of
the City of St. Anthony for the benefit of residents and businesses. Fund balance reserves are
an important component in ensuring the overall financial health of a community, by giving the
City sufficient funds to meet contingency and cash-flow timing needs. In establishing an
appropriate fund balance, the City needs to consider the demands of cash flow, need for
emergency reserves, ability to manage fluctuations of major revenue sources, credit rating and
long-term fiscal health.
General Fund Policy:
•The City will maintain an unassigned General fund balance (minimum fund balance) in
the range of 35-50% of subsequent year’s budgeted operating expenditures (net of
expenditures for police services and financial services to other organizations ) to meet
contingency and cash-flow timing needs; however, this need could fluctuate with each
year’s budget objectives.
•Annual proposed General fund budgets shall include this benchmark policy. Council
shall review the amounts in fund balance in conjunction with the annual final budget
approval, and make adjustments as necessary to meet expected cash-flow needs In the
event that a balanced budget has beginning minimum fund balance in excess of 42.5%,
the excess balance may be transferred to Capital or Special revenue funds.
•In the event the unassigned General fund balance will be calculated to be less than the
minimum requirement at the completion of any fiscal year, the City shall plan to adjust
budget resources in the subsequent fiscal years to bring the fund balance into
compliance with this policy.
•The City Council may also consider increasing the minimum fund balance in situation a
balanced budget has beginning minimum fund balance in excess of 50%.
•Appropriation from the minimum fund balance shall require the approval of the City
Council and shall be used only for non-recurring expenditures, unforeseen emergencies
or immediate capital needs that cannot be accommodated through current year savings.
Replenishment recommendations will accompany the decision to utilize fund balance.
•At the discretion of the City Council, fund balance may be committed for specific
purposes by resolution designating the specific use of fund balance and the amount.
The resolution would need to be approved no later than the close of the reporting
period and will remain binding unless removed in the same manner.

Authority to Assign: (All Funds)
•The City Council authorizes the Finance Director and/or City Manager to assign fund
balance that reflects the City’s intended use of those funds.
Flow Assumptions: (All Funds)
•When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the City’s
policy to first use restricted resources, and then use unrestricted resources as they are
needed. When committed, assigned or unassigned resources are available for use, it is
the City’s policy to use resources in the following order; 1) committed 2) assigned and
3) unassigned.
Definitions: (General Fund and All Other Governmental Funds)
Nonspendable fund balance – amounts that are not in a spendable form or are required to be
maintained intact.
Restricted fund balance – amounts subject to externally enforceable legal restrictions.
Unrestricted fund balance – the total of committed fund balance, assigned fund balance, and
unassigned fund balance.
Committed fund balance – amounts that can be used only for the specific purposes
determined by a formal action of the government’s highest level of decision-making
authority. Commitments may be changed or lifted only by the government taking the
same formal action that imposed the constraint originally.
Assigned fund balance – amounts a government intends to use for a specific purpose;
intent can be expressed by the government body or by an official or body to which the
governing body delegates the authority.
Unassigned fund balance – residual amounts that are available for any purpose in the
general fund.
Fund balance – the difference between assets and liabilities reported in a governmental fund.

FROM: Shelly Rueckert, Finance Director
ITEM: 2022 Preliminary Levy / General Fund Budget
At the March 9th work session, the City Council and staff reviewed the proposed 2022 Debt
Levy. The Debt Levy provides funding for 2022 debt service payments for the Road
Improvement debt, Lease Revenue debt (city buildings) and the Tax Abatement debt (parks and
sidewalks). The proposed 2022 Debt Levy was approved at the July 13th City Council Meeting.
At the June 8th work session, The Staff provided the City Council with an early projection
regarding the overall levy and General Fund Budget. Staff presented an updated overall levy
scenario and a detailed 2022 General Fund budget at the August 10th Council work session. The
City Council also reviewed the proposed adjustments to the Housing Redevelopment Authority
(HRA) levy, Capital Improvement and Building Improvement Fund levies. The Levy proposed
below reflects the work session discussions.
The proposed 2022 overall levy is $8,243,092, which represents an increase of $377,497 or a
4.8% increase compared to the 2021 overall levy.
The standard parameters used for preparing the General Fund Budget and Levy include:
•City revenues budgeted at current run rates for sources that are subject to trends and
conservative baseline estimates for re-occurring aids and charges for services.
•Expenses budgeted at amounts that will maintain present level of City services.
•Liquor transfers to the General Fund are based on liquor operating results.
The General Fund Budget and Levy details:
Each year the General Fund revenue and expenditure budget line items are examined for
changes in expected collections/charges, labor adjustments, changes in contract rates,
insurance rates, utility costs, usage of various materials or needs, etc. The findings of this
2021 $ Change 2022 % Change
General Fund 4,754,650$ 325,647 5,080,297$ 6.85%
HRA Fund 197,564 11,850 209,414 6.00%
CIP Fund 283,200 25,000 308,200 8.83%

Park Improvement Fund - 5,000 5,000 NA
Total 7,865,595$ 377,497$ 8,243,092$ 4.80%
examination produce the drivers associated with the proposed 4.8% increase in the Overall
Levy - see below:
General Fund Expenditures:
• Personnel costs – 70.5% of expenditures, costs increased by $229,900 or 4.24%
• The 2022 wage increases reflect the estimated Union contracts settlements, at a
cost of $186,855 or 3.91%. Please note that the 2021 Budget anticipated open
positions being filled during 2021 versus 1/1/2021. Therefore, a portion of the
increase represents positions being staffed all year. Union Longevity and Step
increases occurring in 2022 are also factored in the 2022 costs.
• Includes an allowance for an additional fulltime firefighter starting mid-year. The
Fire Chief is seeking a grant which would fund 50% of this position. Net cost is
estimated at $27,250 for 2022.
• A risk allowance of $45,688 has been included for union settlements.
• Health Insurance premium decrease of 3.2 % is shared 50/50 by the City and the
employees, expected savings are $25,894.
• Contracted services – 11.0% of expenditures, overall increase of $38,217.
• Construction permits inspections budgeted at an increasing baseline activity has
results in greater expense of $24,261. This increase has no impact on the levy as
the inspection fee is a percentage of permit revenue received.
• Assessor, Attorney, Auditor, Engineer and Planner services reflect rate and activity
increases. The net result of these factors is cost impact of $13,894.
• Contracted Information Technology costs down $5,000.
• Miscellaneous service contracts are estimated to increase by $5,091.
• Other Insurance costs – 4.4% of expenditures, overall costs up by $3,321.
• Workman's Compensation experience rating improved 8% in the 2021-2022
renewal, offset by duty related rate increases, resulting in a cost increase of $19,667
or 10.7%.
• 2021-2022 Liability, Property and Casualty premiums to decrease by $16,346 due
to improved experience rating, absorbing the impact of rate increases.
• Pass through costs – 2.2% of expenditures, costs up $1,325.
• In 2021 the New Brighton fuel sales ended and the St. Anthony fire relief state aid
was paid directly to the PERA pension plan. Therefore, the total amount of 2022
expected expenditures for this category has dropped substantially.
• Remaining budget line items – 11.9% of overall expenditures or $953,210, costs up
$69,481. The overall increase includes $20,000 for a Community survey and returning to
pre-COVID activity levels which increases spending on communications, supplies,
repairs and maintenance, training, utilities and fuels. Also, inflationary factors of 3% to
6% have been applied to many of the estimated costs as well.
• Costs include repairs and maintenance, utilities, fuels, training, supplies,
communications, sustainability programing, road maintenance, printing and
publications etc.
General Fund Revenues:
• Liquor transfer to the General Fund remains at $250,000 for 2022.
• 2022 State funded Local Government Aid remains unchanged from 2021.
• Police contracted services has increased by $29,065.
• Excess Tax Increment collections are projected to decrease by $32,475 in 2022.
• General Fund investment earnings are expected to decline by $9,500 in 2022.
• School District opted to eliminate the DARE program in January 2021, revenue loss of
$14,500.
• Statewide appeal to extend PERA Aid failed, lost revenue $7,197
The 2022 HRA Budget and Levy cost drivers is substantially personnel and professional costs
and inflationary impacts. Therefore, the proposed Levy increase for the HRA is 6.00% or
$11,850.
The 2022 Debt Related Levies are proposed to increase by $0 over the 2021 combined debt
levies. A debt levy reduction program (Peak to Plateau) began in 2014 to stabilize the annual
increase in levies created by the annual street reconstruction plan. Without the use of resources
committed to this program the impact of 2021 street bonds issued along with existing debt
service requirements would have required a 11.91 % increase in the overall Levy.
The 2022 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and the 2022 Building Improvement Levies
annually proposed increases of $25,000 and $5,000 respectively were deferred for 2021 and
have been reinstated for 2022. An Infrastructure levy supporting Infrastructure improvements
was established in 2021. A 2022 levy increase of $5,000 has been proposed.
A Park Improvement levy supporting park improvements has been proposed for 2022. Annual
levy increases of $5,000 are planned in connection with repaying the interfund loan which
financed the resurfacing of the City Hall tennis courts. The repayment term is 15 years with the
Park Improvement levy reaching $50,000 by 2031. The scheduled Levy and Interfund loan
activity will produce additional funds for future park improvements.
