Fire Chief Malenick emphasized that was what the Vital Aging Council has 33 done in St. Anthony. 34 35 Fire Chief Malenick explained the Fire Department took on a project to standardize its 36 equipment, including trucks and hoses. He reported these are now manufactured to the same 37 specifications as all cities in the area. Fire Chief Malenick reported this left the fire department 38 with a mix of equipment and hoses that could no longer connect to the old hydrants. He 39 explained the Fire Department looked for a way to identify the older hydrants needing adaptors. 40 He stated the decision was to paint all the hydrants that would need the adaptor. He mentioned it 41 would have taken the fire department two seasons or more to complete this project, but the Vital 42 Aging Council volunteers took on the project and finished in two weeks. Chief Malenick stated 43 the group is very motivated and enthusiastic. Chief Malenick read the names of the Vital Aging 44 Council members who helped with this project. He also recognized Firefighter Ryan Antilla for 45 organizing the group, identifying the hydrants needing painting, and acquiring the supplies 46 needed for the project. 47 48 Police Chief John Ohl also recognized the Vital Aging Council for its work in the community. 49 He mentioned it began as a grassroots organization to tap the experience, expertise, and energy City Council Regular Meeting Minutes October 24, 2006 Page 2 1 of older residents.

He explained the purpose of the Police Reserve program is to be a volunteer 18 organization that donates its time and efforts for the betterment of St. Anthony residents. He 19 stated the Police Reserves are the ultimate volunteers who put on the uniform and put themselves 20 in harms way. Chief Ohl stated he could not say enough about the professionalism of the St. 21 Anthony Reserve Officers; the Police Officers have a very high regard for the Police Reserve. 22 He stated the Police Reserve logged about 3,000 hours of volunteer time last year. Chief Ohl 23 mentioned five new individuals were added to the reserve force. He introduced the members of 24 the Police Reserve in attendance.

Mayor Faust stated many of the community events could not happen 33 without the help of the Police Reserved. He thanked them for filling in the gaps and the sense of 34 safety, well-being, and concern for the citizens they show the members of the community. He 35 mentioned taxes would be much higher without the Police Reserve. 36 37 C. Citizen's Academy Graduation, Recognized by John Ohl, Police Chief 38 39 Police Chief Ohl recognized the first Citizen's Academy .graduates. He explained everyone's 40 idea of law enforcement comes from TV and it becomes increasingly difficult because of 41 unrealistic expectations. Chief Ohl stated the Police Department works hard to dispel some of 42 the myths about what it takes to become a police officer and do the job. He explained students 43 covered patrol procedures, firearms, criminal law, finger printing, alcohol and drugs, use of force 44 and some even volunteered to be tazed. He commented the students came away with a better 45 idea of what it takes to do this profession. Chief Ohl reported City Manager Mornson attended City Council Regular Meeting Minutes October 24, 2006 Page 3 1 one class and recognized how anxious the students were to start class on time. Sergeant John 2 Mangseth and Mayor Faust handed out certificates to the graduates. 3 4 Chief Ohl noted this was a unique group of people interested enough in law enforcement and the 5 community to attend seven Thursday classes for a total of 21 hours. He stated this was an 6 opportunity to meet some very nice people interested in the community. Chief Ohl recognized 7 Officer John Mangseth, Officer Tressa Sunde, and Reserve Lieutenant Carolyn Quick for doing 8 the hard up front work it took to put the course on.

Ordinance 06-006; Amend Section 1400.07 and Section 1400.12 of the St. Anthony 42 Municipal Code for Electronic Gasoline Signs, 43 44 Planning Commission Chair Joel Stromgren presented Ordinance 06-006 to amend chapter 14 of 45 the City Code on signage. He stated the Planning Commission received a request from Mr. 46 Roger Bona, owner of the Mobil Station at 2801 Kenzie Terrace, to amend the code to allow 3 City Council Regular Meeting Minutes October 24, 2006 Page 4 1 electronic price signage for gas stations. Chair Stromgren stated the Planning Commission went 2 through the conceptual review in September and a public hearing in October. He stated the 3 Planning Commission voted unanimously to recommend adoption of the amendment to the City 4 Council. Chair Stromgren pointed out the present restrictions on gas station price signage 5 restricts signage to pylon signs that may not exceed 150 square feet of sign surface and only one 6 sign is allowed per establishment. 7 8 Chair Stromgren explained the Planning Commission placed additional stipulations on the 9 amendment which include: copy height shall not exceed 14.5 inches; the electronic copy is 10 limited to numeric characters only; the electronic copy shall not scroll, flash, blink or include 11 animated copy of graphics; the electronic copy shall be limited to one color; and the electronic 12 copy shall be equipped with an automatic dimming feature t0 reduce brightness at night. 13 14 Councilmember Stille asked Chair Stromgren what the reasoning was for the request. 15 16 Chair Stromberg, replied that with the change in gas prices on almost a daily basis, the applicant 17 stated it has become dangerous in the winter and bad weather for employees to change the plastic 18 letters and numbers. He further explained this would be a remote or radio controlled unit. 19 2.0 Councilmember Stille asked if the Planning Commission discussed whether the electronic sign 21 could be on either the pylon or a monument sign. 22 23 Chair Stromberg replied it had, as the Commission did not want to restrict the electronic signs to 24 only the pylon. He also pointed out the locations of several monument and pylon signs at gas 25 stations around St. Anthony. 26 27 Councilmember Stille stated electronic signs had a long history where several businesses had 28 requested them, but were not approved. He asked Chair Stromgren if that aspect was discussed. 29 30 Chair Stromberg responded it was discussed as the Planning Commission is concerned with the 31 impact on the residences adjacent to the Mobil Station. He stated that is why the dimming 32 requirement was added to the restrictions. Chair Stromberg reported there was also discussion 33 on color; there was not being a strong feeling to restrict the signage to a certain color. He 34 mentioned red is the predominant color used as it is the cheapest. 35 36 Mayor Faust stated before them was an ordinance change not subject to the 60 -day rule, but is 37 subject to three readings. 38 39 Councilmember Gray stated he understood the need for these signs and the need for the ease to 40 change numbers. He mentioned he would like to see more standardization, perhaps on color and/ 41 or size. He stated would not allow signs that stood out excessively. Councilmember Gray stated 42 he would like to consider either all monument or all pylon signs for standardization. He 43 expressed he preferred monument signs as they would be the least intrusive. 44 45 Councilmember Stille stated he thought about the other businesses that asked for electronic signs 46 and were consistently rejected by Council. He stated the only way he could support this is if it City Council Regular Meeting Minutes October 24, 2006 Page 5 1 were on a pylon sign, as the only reason this is being considered is for safety reasons. He stated 2 he would exclude monument signs, as they exhibit no safety issue. Councilmember Stille 3 explained the only way this could be justified to other businesses was if it were truly a safety 4 issue. 5 6 Councilmember Theusen stated, for the most part, he is in agreement with the Planning 7 Commission. He mentioned he favors the monument, but if it is limited it to just one such as a 8 pylon sign, this might take away the unique characteristics of a business. He stated there is a 9 difference between this request and the other requests that were advertising for milk or bread. 10 Councilmember Theusen stated the Planning Commission covered some of the important points 11 such as scrolling, blinking, and flashing. He stated he is open to looking at the pylon versus 12 monument issue. 13 14 Councilmember Horst stated this is long over due, particularly in the gas industry where they 15 have undergone some tremendous changes in pricing; it is difficult to keep up with changing gas 16 prices. He stated it is something needed in the 21St century. Councilmember Horst stated the 17 signs do not need to be overly bright or wild. He stated the City has a red sign that does not flash 18 and it should extend the same courtesy to area businesses. He expressed he is in favor of the 19 amendment and believes it is overdue. 20 21 Mayor Faust stated there are seven gas stations in the community, and once approved, the genie 22 is out of the bottle. He asked what makes gas stations a privileged player. Mayor Faust 23 explained the individuals who worked on the sign ordinance used the same neon signs as bad 24 examples. He stated he is not sure if the issue is safety or more of convenience and for 25 advertising. He said everyone is in the same competitive arena at this point. Mayor Faust 26 explained the sign the community uses for hours of operation is turned off at 10:00 p.m. and 27 turned back on at 6:00 a.m. He mentioned at one point, canopies were on the agenda and now 28 every gas station has a canopy. He stated canopies do not extend themselves to Wal-Mart, 29 Culvers or other businesses. Mayor Faust stressed if St. Anthony had a gas sign at the entrance 30 of 39th and Silver Lake Road, into Silver Lake village it would take away from all the hard work 31 done and there would be no way of denying it once this ordinance were approved. Mayor Faust 32 stated in his opinion, it is best to keep the ordinance the way it is. 33 34 Commissioner Gray asked Chair Stromgren if any other technology could be used. 35 36 Chair Stromgren stated LCDs were not used for exterior signs in warm climates, but especially 37 not in cold climates. He stated flipper signs are often used; however, they are not common in 38 northern climates. He stated the use of LEDs for changeable copy signs are by far the most 39 commonly used in northern climates. 40 41 Motion by Councilmember Thuesen, seconded by Councilmember Horst, to Ordinance 2006- 42 006; an Ordinance .Amending Chapter 14 of the City Code, being Sign Regulations with a 43 change of 14.5 with no restrictions for monument or pylon. 44 45 Councilmember Stille stated he would not be in favor of this if it included other than pylon signs. 5 City Council Regular Meeting Minutes October 24, 2006 Page 6 1 He asked if staff could explore the safety issue further. He is in favor this time to move it to a 2 second reading. 3 4 City Manager Mornson asked Councilmember Stille for clarification regarding if he wanted to 5 know what other cities allowed regarding pylon or monument signs. 6 7 Councilmember Stille replied he wanted to know if it were truly a safety issue or more of a 8 convenience issue. He asked Chair Stromgren if this had been discussed at the Planning 9 Commission meeting. 10 11 Chair Stromgren replied it was not debated, however, the concept review included a presentation 12 by Mr. Bona on how the signs were changed on a day-by-day basis. He stated a discussion with 13 Mr. Bona included the safety issues. 14 15 Commission Horst stated he would like to see this moved to the second reading. He challenged 16 any Councilmember to try to change these numbers in reasonably warm weather. He expressed 17 how difficult it is to change letters when it is cold, as the letters do not stick to the pole. He 18 stated the option of not changing it is a poor looking sign. Councilmember Horst stressed he 19 would like to see this move along and gather more research. Commissioner Horst expressed this 20 is unique to the gas station business. 21 22 Mayor Faust stated the only change to the first reading would be to sub Para 2, (2) 14.5 inches. 23 24 Mayor Faust called for the vote. 25 3- es 2 -bays (Faust, Gray) 26 27 Mayor Faust asked if the reference to monument signs is to be removed from the second reading. 28 29 Councilmember Theusen stated he would be agreeable to removing monument signs. 30 31 Councilmember Stille agreed. 32 33 Councilmember Horst stated it did' not matter if it is there or not. 34 35 Mayor Faust stated the amendment would come back to the Council without reference to 36 monument signs. He stated he would like more information on the safety issue. 37 38 VI. GENERAL POLICY BUSINESS OF THE COUNCIL. 39 A.

JO:vj 22 STAFF REPORT To: Mayor and City Council r From: Kim. Moore -Sykes, Assistant City'Manager Date: November 14, 2006 Subject: Yard Waste Site Joint Powers Agreement with Ramsey County Background: In 2005, representatives from Ramsey County met with City officials to discuss the possibility of permitting Hennepin County residents to use the compost and yard waste facility in New Brighton. It was agreed to establish a pilot program for a year to determine the level of use and this facility's ability to take in additional amounts of yard waste. The City agreed to compensate Ramsey County $5,000 for the additional load on the County's yard waste system. In October, City staff contacted Ramsey County staff to discuss extending this program into a multi- year agreement. Ramsey County had reported that the program was a success and they agreed to extend the JPA for an additional five (5) years. Attached is a draft copy of the resolution that will be presented to the Ramsey County Board on November 28, 2006 for approval. Attachments: Request for Ramsey County Board Action City Resolution #06-082 Extending the Joint Powers Agreement between Ramsey County and the City of St. Anthony for Use of Yard Waste Management Sites from January 1, 2007 through December 31, 2011. 111406 Staff Report re resolution 06086 extdg JPA. doc W REQUEST FOR RAMSEY COUNTYBOARD ACTION ❑ Type of Agenda: ❑ Policy Administrative Requesting Department: Public Health Committee: Committee: County -Wide Ramifications or Affected Commissioner District(s) #: ❑ Consent ❑ Public Hearing El Information El Ordinance Meeting Date: Meeting Date: Board Meeting Date: 11/28/06 Board Meeting Date: SUBJECT: Yard Waste Site Joint Powers Agreement with the City of Saint Anthony EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The City of Saint Anthony is located in two counties, with about one-third of its residents in the Ramsey County portion and two-thirds in the Hennepin County portion. Longstanding County policy has been that only residents of Ramsey County may use the County's yard waste sites. In late 2005 the City requested that all its residents be allowed to use Ramsey County's yard waste sites and that it was willing to compensate the County for the costs for such services for its residents who reside in Hennepin County. Consequently, the County Board and City Council approved a joint powers agreement to allow any City resident to use the County's site in Arden Hills through 2006. The City and County agreed that an annual payment of $5,000 for this period would compensate the County adequately for the additional burden on its yard waste system. This payment is based on the County's costs for its yard waste system and the relative proportion of residents residing in the Hennepin County portion of the City. The City has requested that this arrangement be extended for an additional five years, with the City providing an annual payment of $5,000 to the County for these services. Because the arrangement has worked well, the Department of Public Health recommends that the County Board approve a joint powers agreement for these purposes. ACTION REQUESTED: 1. Approve the Joint Powers Agreement between Ramsey County and the City of Saint .Anthony for Use of Yard waste Management Sites, for the period of January I, 2007, through December 31, 2011. 2. Authorize the Chair of the County Board and the Chief Clerk to execute the Joint Powers Agreement. SUBJECT.- Yard Waste Site Joint Powers Agreement with the City of Saint. Anthony ATTACHMENTS: Joint Powers Agreement between Ramsey County and the City of Saint Anthony for Use of Yard Waste Management Sites PREVIOUS ACTION: none COUNTY MANAGER. COMMENTS: The City of Saint Anthony would like to continue to provide the same convenient yard waste services enjoyed by its Ramsey County resdients to those citizens that reside in Hennepin County. The joint powers agreement has worked well for the past year. This partnership with the City will provide another alternative to residents there to assure environmentally sound management of yard waste from City residents. The County Manager recommends approval.

ATTEST: City Clerk Reviewed for Administration: Mayor City Manager F:\Council Meetings\2006\ 11142006\resRamsey County joint powers.doc w FREERS & ASSOCIATES INC On December 19, 2003, the City and HRA entered into a Redevelopment Contract with Apache Redevelopment LLC. Pursuant to Section 10.1 of the Redevelopment Contract, the Developer was to begin construction of the Phase IB For Sale Housing Development by July 1, 2006 (condominium buildings #3 and #4). In addition, pursuant to Section 12.3 of the Redevelopment Contract, the City's Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) was to provide the developer with a Pay -As -You -Go (PAYG) TIF Note in the amount of $3,432,758 to construct this phase of housing. Upon issuance of this Note, the developer would assign the PAYG TIF Note to their construction lender (just like they did in Phase IA) who in return would deposit this amount in the disbursement account for use in construction of the project. The developer is currently finishing up construction on condominium building #2 and anticipates beginning construction on building #3 in the summer of 2007 and building #4 by the summer of 2008. Therefore the developer has requested that the dates in the original Redevelopment Contract be amended to state that construction needs to commence by September 1, 2007 and September 1, 2008 for each building respectively. The delay in the construction of both buildings is only one year from what was originally projected as part of the sizing of the TIF Note ($3,432,758). Due to the increased value we are seeing at the project (higher sales prices than originally projected), this one year delay will not jeopardize or decrease the amount of TIF that will, be needed to satisfy the. required PAYG TIF Note ($3,9432,758). With regards to issuing the $3,432,758 PAYG TIF Note, the developer has requested that the Note be prorated accordingly between the two buildings and issued separately when construction of each building is ready to commence. By splitting the PAYG Note into two Notes it will assist the developer in obtaining better financing rates (due to less risk of constructing 64 units up front vs. getting financing commitments for 128 units) and will decrease carrying costs to the project (carrying a lower principal amount over a shorter period of time). If the note amount is prorated based upon the amount of increment generated by each building, the Phase IB — 1 Housing Note would be for $1,642,978 (building adjacent to 39t' Avenue) and the Phase IB — 2 Housing Note would be for $1,789,780 (building located on old Cadawallader property).

Gilligan DATE: October 3, 2006 RE: Amendment.of City Code to With Respect to Closure of Manufactured Home parks Minnesota Statutes, Section 327C.095, sets forth requirements to be followed by the owner of a manufactured home park to close all or a portion of the park or to convert it to another use. This statute requires that the Planning Commission review the closure statement required to be given by the owner to the park residents, and the City Council to hold a public hearing to review the closure statement and any impact that the park closing may have on displaced residents and the park owner. Under the statute the City may require that reasonable relocation costs be paid to displaced residents. It is being proposed that the City Council adopt an ordinance pursuant to the authority contained in Minnesota Statutes, Section 327C.095, which provides for payment by the owner to the resident of relocation costs for relocating a manufactured home to a manufactured home park located within a 25 mile radius, and for alternate compensation if the resident cannot relocate the manufactured home to a park within 25 miles. Such alternate compensation will be either the purchase by the owner of the home at its estimated market value, or payment by the owner to the resident of -the average of the relocation costs awarded to other residents of the park. The resident has the option to choose which alternate compensation it is to receive. Providing for alternate compensation allows a displaced resident who is unable to relocate or doesn't want to relocate, the ability to sell his manufactured home at its appraised value. The proposed ordinance provides for certain remedies if the owner fails to comply with the requirements of the ordinance, including withholding building permits for the reuse of the park if the required relocation costs and alternate compensation is not paid by the owner, and provides that any land use approvals by the City in connection with the reuse of the park shall be conditioned on the compliance with the ordinance requirements. if the City does not adopt this ordinance, a resident would only- be entitled to relocation costs under the statute if the resident's manufactured home cannot be relocated to another park within a 25 -mile radius. The adoption of the ordinance allows a resident to also receive relocation costs if the home is relocated within a 25 --mile radius of the park, and the option to elect to have the home purchased at its estimated market value if the resident is unable to relocate the home within a 25 -mile radius of the closed park. The City is authorized to require such payments under the provisions of Minnesota Statutes, Section 3270.095.

Mr. Roger Bona initiated this process by requesting a change to Chapter 14 to allow electronic gas price display signs. The Planning Commission approved a recommendation to allow the language change to Chapter 14, listing conditions and restrictions for an electronic gas price sign based on information provided by staff collected from surrounding communities that allow electronic changeable message signs; including gas price signs. A representative from St. Anthony. Mobil also informed the Planning Commission that allowing an electronic gas price sign alleviated a safety issue for his employees responsible for manually changing the gas prices, particularly in the winter when ladders and equipment get slippery. Council asked staff to do additional research on :the issue. They were- especially interested in the findings that these communities came to in deciding to allow electronic gas price display signs. Staff spoke with Mark Noble of Shakopee; Matt Brown of Coon Rapids; Jeff Sargent of Columbia Heights; Grant Fernelius of New Brighton; and Scott Hickock of Fridley. Most indicated that the change was allowed because electronic signs looked neater in appearance, were technologically advanced and were viewed as a convenience for the business owner. Jeff Sargent of Columbia Heights indicated that electronic gas display signs are allowed as their ordinance only prohibits those electronic, signs that s-croll, flash, or are animated. Scott Hickock, from Fridley, discussed a court case that the City was involved in regarding electronic signs. The case went as far as the State Court of Appeals, whereby the Court upheld the City's ability to place stipulations and restrictions on electronic signs with the exception of message, which the Court viewed as a Constitutional issue. Matt Brown of Coon Rapids reported that their sign ordinance is probably more lenient than most communities, with the exception of those businesses along Coon Rapids Boulevard. Those businesses are scrutinized more closely because of the intensity of development along that roadway. He also indicated that employee safety. was not an issue that was considered but indicated that their council didn't feel that electronic gas price display signs were any more intense than other signs.

Proposed Language Chan2e to Chapter 1.4 Signs to- allow Electronic Gas Price 43 Display Suns, 44 45 Chair Stromgren opened the public hearing at 7:03 p.m. 46 47 Assistant City Manager Moore -Sykes reported Mr. Roger Bona contacted Staff about the process 48 for submitting a request to install an electronic gas price sign. She stated Mr. Bona was informed Planning Commission Meeting Minutes October 17, 2006 Page 2 1 electronic signs were not permitted for any districts except signs located on property owned by 2 the City or Independent School District 282. She mentioned Mr. Bona informed Staff that 3 because gas prices are constantly changing, it was difficult at times to keep up with the 4 fluctuation. She stated Mr. Bona informed Staff the numbers become brittle and more difficult to 5 attach to the pylon sign during the winter, and using a ladder is dangerous. 6 7 Assistant City Manager Moore -Sykes stated Staff was asked to determine what other Minnesota 8 communities allowed electronic gas display signs. She reported Staff found Shoreview, New 9 Brighton, Columbia Heights, and Watertown allows electronic gas display signs. Assistant City 10 Manager Moore -Sykes explained Coon Rapids allows changeable copy for illuminated signs and 11 the City of Bloomington is considering an ordinance that separates various types of electronic 12 signs into four categories to establish development standards unique to each sign type. 13 14 Assistant City Manager Moore -Sykes stated Staff is asking for a recommendation to the City 15 Council on whether to change the language to Chapter 14 of the City's sign ordinance regarding 16. permitting electronic gas price display signs. She explained because this not a change to the 17 City's Zoning Ordinance, City Council would need to hold three readings for the proposed 18 language change. 19 20 Assistant City Manager Moore -Sykes explained the proposed language change would be to 21 Chapter 14 Signs, Sections 1400.0 and 1400.12. She read the recommended language for each 22 subdivision; 1400.07 Prohibited Signs, Subdivision 20, Electronic Message Signs would include 23 (2) Gas price display signs for fuel stations in the Commercial Zoning District. 24 25 Assistant City Manager Moore -Sykes stated under 1400.12 District Schedules; Subdivision 2, 26 Commercial and Limited Business (2), would included the following wording: "A gasoline 27 station will be allowed, in addition to all other authorized signs, one pylon sign to identify the 28 gasoline brand. This sign may not exceed 30 feet in height, and must have a minimum clearance 29 of eight feet from the basic grade level to the lowest element of the sign surface and may not 30 exceed 150 square feet in sign surface area. Such establishment will be allowed one changeable 31 price display sign for each frontage having a ,curb cut. That portion of the gas sign that 32 announces prices and consists of changeable copy, manual or electronic. A gas price display 33 must be integrated into a freestanding, pylon sign. Fuel stations may integrate a gas display sign 34 into an electronic changeable copy sign, provided: copy height shall not exceed 14.5. inches; the 35 electronic copy is limited to numeric characters only: the electronic copy shall not scroll, flash or 36 blink, or include animated copy of graphics; the electronic copy shall be limited to one color. 37- Such freestanding signs will be in addition to those signs allowed in paragraph one of this 38 Subdivision." 39 40 Mr. Tom Archambeau, St. Anthony Mobil Manager, commented the"proposed changes are for 41 the purposes stated. He stated the volatility of gas prices require changes several- times per week. 42 He commented that in the last few winters, a combination of rain, sleet, and snow created safety 43 issues for employees as they attempted to change the signs. 44 45 Commissioner Jenson asked Mr. A.rchambeau for the current gas price heights. a Planning Commission Meeting Minutes October 17, 2006 Page 3 2 -Mr. Archambeau replied he believed they were roughly 13 or 14 inches high. 3 4 Commissioner Jenson asked Mr. Archambeau if the proposed 14.5 inches would replicate what is 5 currently in place. 6 7 Mr. Archambeau replied the proposed sign would be no larger than the current sign. He 8 displayed a graphic of the proposed sign stating only two of the products carried would be 9 displayed; a smaller space for the sign may be required. He mentioned the current sign advertises 10 three pro ducts . 11 12 Commissioner Jensen asked Assistant City Manager Moore -Sykes if what is proposed is that 13 okay the height be limited to the smaller of the two sizes displayed on the graphic; he did not see 14 the harm in having a 21 -inch number if that is what has been submitted in the package. 15 16 Mr. Archambeau replied the upper portion of the sign is 21.5 inches; what is written in the packet 17 is that the numbers themselves could not be more than 14.5 inches in height. Mr. Archambeau 18 stated the way he interprets the display is the top portion of the sign would be 21.5 inches. He 19 stated he is not sure of the exact height of the digital display. 20 21 Chair Stromgren stated if it stays as written, Mobil would have the option of making it smaller or 22 adding the third product. 23 24 Assistant City Manager Moore --Sykes stated at the last meeting, the Commissioners talked about 25 the size and not wanting them more than 14.5 inch high. She mentioned this is the public 26 hearing for changes to the ordinance. She mentioned Council would hold three readings. 27 Assistant City Manager Moore -Sykes stated if the Commission wants to suggest a taller font size, 28 Staff could do that. 29 30 Chair Stromgren commented, based on his unscientific survey, the current size at the stations in 31 St Anthony seem to work fine. He stated electronic signs would be that much more obvious and 32 easer to read; the larger size would not be needed for slower speed streets. He stated that 'if they 33 were on an interstate, it would be different. 34 35 Commissioner Jensen stated the rewriting of the code applies only if the sign is on a pylon sign. 36 He explained a number of businesses have a monument signs and he did not see why the benefit 37 could not be carried over to the monument signs also. 38 Commissioner Galyon asked Commissioner Jensen if he was referring to only gas stations. 39 . .40 Commissioner Jensen stated what is often seen in a refurbished gas station is a sign incorporated 41 into a monument sign. He stated he did not see why it must state only a pylon sign or what harm 42 it ,would cause the community to include a monument sign. 43 44 Assistant City Manager Moore -Sykes stated the applicant had asked the pylon sign to become 45 electronic because it is the most difficult to reach manually. AKA Planning Commission Meeting Minutes October 17, 2006 Page 4 1 2 Chair Stromgren replied the current code is written for gas price signage to be on a pylon. Re 3 stated Commissioner Jensen is correct in that a number of signs are monument style in and out of 4 the City. 5 6 Commissioner Jensen responded the Commission is attempting to update the code to deal with 7 current and future conditions. He stated during the reading process, he would like to insure 8 monument signs are included so another amendment would not be needed later. 9 10 Chair Stromgren reported receiving one email from Mr. Dennis Cavanaugh expressing his 11 concern about the impact an electronic sign would have on the neighborhood. 12 13 Chair Stromgren closed the public hearing at 7:17 p.m. 14 15 Commissioner Jensen remarked the Commission should deal with monument signs as well as 16 pylon signs for gas stations. He stated perhaps the proposal should be sent back to Staff to 17 include monument signs. 18 19 Chair Stromgren replied he is not sure if this is referenced in another subsection. 20 21 Commissioner Jensen responded he is offering an amendment to ensure changeable copy is 22 allowed regardless of the sign type and to continue the reading process forward. He stated he is 23 confident staff would find the correct wording. Commissioner Jensen recommended wording in 24 subdivision two of the amendment. 25 26 Chair Stromgren pointed out the fist sentence where pylon is also referenced. 27 28 Commissioner Jensen recommended making a global change. g g 29 30. Commissioner Jenson asked if both monument and pylon signs are freestanding. He suggested 31 leaving the word freestanding to represent both monument and pylon signs. 32 33 Chair Stromgren replied monument and pylon signs are both defined in the beginning of Chapter 34 .14. He state this would keep everything consistent and ensure a reference is not missed. 35 Commissioner Jensen stated it is an attempt to make a copy change sooner than later rather than 36 in the middle of the winter. 37 38 Chair Stromgren stated he wants to make sure it remains monument or pylon so it could not 39 become attached to the building. He stated only one monument sign with the LED is allowed per 40 business. 41 42 Commissioner Jensen pointed out subdivision two mentions one sign only. He asked Assistant 43 City Manager Moore -Sykes if the Commission could forward this to the City Council along with 44 the friendly amendments and discussion. 45 53 Planning Commission Meeting Minutes October 17, 2006 Page 5 1 Assistant City Manager Moore -Sykes replied it could be forwarded as 'Council would be doing 2 the readings and making revisions. She stated once approved and published it becomes the 3 ordinance. 4 5 Commissioner Hanson commented he sees cigarette prices being advertised along with the gas 6 prices and asked if there is any way to make sure that is not allowed. 7 8 Assistant City Manager Moore -Sykes replied the amendment could be made more specific in 9 1400.07, subdivision 20 by adding the word fuel. 10 11 Chair Stromgren stated LED comes in a range of colors, red being the cheapest. He asked if 12 there is a different impact on the neighborhood relative to colors. 13 14 Commissioner Hoska stated he has only seen the red ones and red is fine. 15 16 Commissioner Jensen responded what is proposed is one color; specify lumens or colors are not 17 addressed. He stated he is not sure the Commission could effectively predict what the correct 18 lumen should be. 19 20 Commissioner Galyon added if it were white it would be brighter than red, at night it could not 21 be dimmed and must it be on constantly. 22 Chair Stromgren clarified the lights would dim at night because a photocell would dim 23 automatically. 24 25 Commissioner Galyon stated it should be included in the recommendation. 26 27 Chair Stromgren replied it should be added that an automatic dimming feature to decrease 28 illumination levels at night must control electronic signs. 29 30 Commissioner Jenson asked if lumens should be specified for a.m. and p.m. He also asked what 31 `limited to one color' meant. He asked if it meant the first station to implement the LED signs 32 would set the precedence for the color used by other stations. 33 34 Chair Stromgren replied each station would be limited to the use of one color; multi colored 35 signs could not be used. 36 37 Commissioner Jensen interjected that what this implies is that each station could work with 38. individual corporate colors. 39 40 Commissioner Hanson asked about the reference to curb cuts in the amendment and asked if this 41 meant there could be more signs if there were more curb cuts. 42 43 Assistant City Manager Moore -Sykes explained that is how it is stated in the ordinance with the 44 exception of the words changeable and display. She pointed out in subdivision 2 (2), it states 45 they would be allowed. one pylon sign. She clarified it meant the electronic sign could only be on 41 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19. 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 Planning Commission Meeting Minutes October 17, 2006 Page 6 one pylon. She clarified further the station could have a monument sign for every right-of-way, but only one pylon. Chair Stromgren stated the last seven words should be taken out, add a period after `sign,' and take out the reference to curb cut. He restated how the sentence should read. Assistant City Manager Moore -Sykes -summarized the recommended changes, additions, and deletions under 1400.07 and 1400.12 for the Commissioners: She stated Staff would submit the rewrite to the City Attorney to make sure it reads correctly. Motion by Commissioner Jensen, seconded by Commissioner Hoska to recommend approval of the proposed Language Change to Chapter 14, Signs to allow Electronic Gas Price Display Signs, as amended and clarified by staff . Motion carried unanimously Chair Stromgren stated this would be presented at the October 24, 2006 City Council meeting for the first of three readings. Chair Stromgren recommended Mr. Archambeau have someone from the Mobil station attend the City Council meeting to answer questions. ,1 f A. 3�W Downers ,gave -- Stoop Encroachment in Front Yard Assistant City Mia .. ager Moore -Sykes stated Mr. Mark Shadduck contStaff for information on removing and reps ;ing his concrete driveway.

Pursuant to Section 10.1 of the Redevelopment Contract, the Developer was to begin construction of the Phase IB For Sale Housing Development by July 1, 2006 (condominium buildings #3 and #4). In addition, pursuant to Section 12.3 of the Redevelopment Contract, the City's Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) was to provide the developer with a Pay -As -You -Go (PAYE) TIF Note in the amount of $3,432,758 to construct this phase of housing. Upon issuance of this Note, the. developer would assign the PAYG TIF Note to their construction lender (just like they did in Phase IA) who in return would deposit this amount in the disbursement account for use in construction of the project. The developer is currently finishing up construction on condominium. building #2 and anticipates beginning construction on building #3 in the summer of 2007 and building #4 by the summer of 2008. Therefore the developer has requested that the dates in the original Redevelopment Contract be amended to state that construction needs to commence by September 1, 2007 and September 1, 2008 for each building respectively. The delay in the construction of both buildings is only one year from what was originally projected as part of the sizing of the TIF Note ($3,432,758). Due to the increased value we are seeing at the project (higher sales prices than originally projected), this one year delay will not jeopardize or decrease the amount of TIF that will be needed to satisfy the required PAYE TIF Note ($3,432,758). With regards to' issuing the $3,432,758 PAYG TIF Note, the developer has requested that the Note be prorated accordingly between the two buildings and issued separately when construction of each building is ready to commence. By splitting the PAYG Note into -two Notes it , financing will assist the developer in obtaining better rates (due to less risk of constructing 64 units up front vs. getting financing commitments for 128 units) and will decrease carrying costs to the project (carrying a lower principal amount over a shorter period of time). If the note amount is prorated based upon the amount of increment generated by each building, the Phase IB — 1 Housing Note would be for $1,642,978 (building adjacent to 39#x` Avenue) and the Phase IB -- 2 Housing Note would be for $1,789,780 (building located on old Cadawallader property).
