21 Mayor Faust advised that the Fire Chief has been asked to discuss the gas line break that occurred in the
22 City this afternoon.
23
24 Chief Malenick explained that at approximately 2:30 p.m., a CenterPoint Energy contractor performing
25 routine work on the gas mains drilled through a 12" gas line that feeds most of Northeast Minneapolis
26 and into Columbia Heights. He stated that the vast majority of the gas is currently blowing into
27 Minneapolis and crews from Minneapolis and the City immediately barricaded the neighborhood and
28 evacuated many people along Stinson Boulevard. He indicated that because the gas line is under so
29 much pressure, the gas is shooting straight up in the air where it poses a decreased danger; CenterPoint
30 Energy advised the City that the bulk of what is going to fall back down is the odorizer included with the
31 gas and there is little danger it will come back down and settle into homes, etc. He stated that
32 CenterPoint Energy is currently working on a bypass to cut off the gas to the leak itself and the bypass
33 work should be completed by 10:30 p.m. this evening, when people can return to their homes. He added
34 that CenterPoint Energy expects to continue working past midnight to complete all repairs. He indicated
35 that the majority of residents affected by the leak are in the area of 30111 and Stinson and the City has
36 welcomed residents into the fire station if they need a place to stay until they can return to their homes.
37
38 Councilmember Stille asked if the potential severe weather will impact repair work.
39
40 Chief Malenick replied that any rain will force the gas down to earth in a safe manner; however,
41 lightning could create a problem and fire crews stationed in the area are prepared to deal with any severe
42 weather. I -Ie encouraged residents to contact the Fire Department with any questions or concerns at 612-
43 782-3400 or to call 911.
44
45 Mayor Faust expressed the City Council's thanks on behalf of all residents to the Fire Department and

35 several decades before breaking down and represent a significant pollution concern. I Ie added
36 that discarded cigarette butts would be considered an illicit discharge under the NPDES rules.
37 Iie stated that the pollution on the Army ammunition site has been in the environment for a long
38 period of time and there are some indications that the level of contamination is beginning to
39 subside. Ile indicated that if the site is redeveloped, there will be special concerns associated
40 with whether the improvements have the potential to move the contamination in the soil into the
41 drinking water of the communities in the area. He added there will be a significant amount of
42 discussion on this topic in the future to manage the pollutants and manage storm sewer runoff.

19 variance for two curves on Foss Road. Iie stated that there was a disparity between the date of
20 the official letter granting approval and the contract bid opening date, and Mn/DOT has

1 City Engineer Hubmer explained that the selection of next year's project location was based on
2 the fact that this area has had a number of water main breaks and once this project is finished, all
3 roads west of Silver Lake Road will be reconstructed and the City can then move to other
4 segments of the City. He stated that utility replacement is given highest priority when selecting a
5 project and the area around Belden and Coolidge has had a number of water main breaks. He
6 added that the City also does not want to have construction traffic over a recently reconstructed
7 street, which will mean that the 2012 project will have an entrance route on 36t" Avenue and the
8 City will then redo 36°i Avenue when construction is complete without damaging any new roads.
9
10 Councilmember Roth asked about the City's alleyways and the standards used in construction of
11 those alleyways. He also expressed concern about garbage haulers and stated it was his
12 understanding that the haulers agreed they would not enter the alleyways with loaded trucks.
13
14 City Engineer Hubmer stated that there are design issues with the alleys because they are not
15 designed to the same level as the streets, they are very flat with poor drainage, and some will
16 decay sooner than the roadways.
17
18 City Manager Morrison stated that the haulers agreed not to enter the alleys with loaded trucks;
19 in addition, the haulers are using smaller trucks in some cases.
20
21 City Engineer Hubmer added that the City has applied for a 319 grant to remove phosphorous
22 and pollutant loads to Silver Lake and improve Salo Park pond, which will help the City get into
23 TMDL compliance. He noted that the City already has $50,000 from Rice Creek Watershed
24 District for this project.
25
26 VII. REPORTS FROM CITY MANAGER AND COUNCIL MEMBERS.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: May 16, 2011
TO: City Council
FROM: Mike Morrison, City Manager
Roger Larson, Finance Director
ITEM: BUILDING PERMITS — MN STATUTE 326B.153
At the April 4`' and April 26th work sessions, staff discussed with the City Council St.
Anthony's current fee structure for "Building Permits". To determine what other Cities
charge, staff conducted a survey of surrounding Metropolitan Cities. The data shows that
building permit fees vary and there is no consistency or a uniform method used for
establishing building permit fees.
A compact history of how fee schedules in Minnesota have developed is as follows:
1) In 1972, Minnesota adopted the "Uniform Building Code (UBC)" which
included a fee schedule.
a. It was updated every three years.
2) In 2003, the UBC decides that it would no longer include a fee schedule.
3) In 2003, the League of Minnesota Cities and AMM formed a committee and
developed a fee schedule based on using the UBC and applying the Consumer
Price Index.
a. St. Anthony adopted this fee schedule and is what is used today.
4) Since no one was updating the fee schedule, in 2009, the Minnesota
Department of Labor and Industry developed a fee schedule that is part
of State Statute 326B.153.
The attached Excel spreadsheet reviews the building permit fee costs for 9 communities:
1) Blaine, Lino Lakes & Fridley are using the 2003 UBC fee schedule.
2) Golden Valley and St. Anthony are using the updated 2003 League of
Minnesota Cities/AMM schedule.
3) New Brighton, Roseville and Columbia Heights appear to be using their own
fee schedule.
4) Arden Hills adopted the State Statute fee schedule in January 2011.
In discussing this issue and networking with other Finance Directors, their feedback
indicates they are either in the process of reviewing or have plans to review the building
permit fee schedule as defined in State Statute.
Staff Recommendation:
1) Council approves ordinance amendment #2011-03 changing the City Ordinance
Chapter 33.061 for Building Permit Fees as defined in Minnesota State Statute
32613.153.
2) Effective date 01/01/20]2.
