He asked if the City will be required to obtain new 45 credits in the future as it reconstructs its roads, e.g., in thirty years. 46 7 2 4 6 7 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 City Council Regular Meeting Minutes December 13, 2011 Page 5 City Engineer Hubmer stated it is difficult to predict what environmental laws will be in place in the future. He indicated the City is operating under a process called adaptive management, which is a pollution control standard, and felt that the City's current efforts will help the City achieve its goals. fie added that the measures currently in place should perform and the City should not need extra credit; however, if the City does not achieve its goals, then the City will need to evaluate what it has done and find new ways to reduce pollutants.

ANTHONY RESOLUTION 12-010 A RESOLUTION ADOPTING THE STANDING RULES OF CONDUCT FOR CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS FOR THE YEAR 2012 BE IT .RESOLVED, by the City Council of the City of St. Anthony hereby adopts the City Council Standing Rules 2012 for conducting City Council meetings during the year 2012 which said rules are attached herewith. Adopted this 10t1, day of January,2012, ATTEST: Mayor City Clerk Review for Administration: City Manager FACouncil Meet ings\2012\01102012\rosrtiles or couduct.doc 2012 29 CITY OF ST ANTHONY VILLAGE STANDING RULE FOR CONDUCTING CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS INTRODUCTION In the belief that the best decisions are made by the best informed decision makers and that the public decision is best served when the public has every opportunity to present views, the following rules are established to govern regular and special Council meetings as well as format public hearings. There are several goals behind these rules. In general, free and open discussion by all interested parties should be an essential part of the decision making process. 'The Council process should have as little procedural overhead as possible. Time is better spent on substantial matters rather than performa matters. The formal Council membership consists of the four Councihnembers and the Mayor. All five have one vote each and all five can introduce motions. For purposes of leading the meeting, the Mayor, or in the absence of the Mayor, the Mayor Pro -tern will be considered the Chairperson. A quorum of the Council is three members. A quorum is required to do official business. Meetings of the Council shall be held on the second and fourth Tuesday of each month at 7:00 pm. Council work sessions will be called from time to time, as the Mayor and Council deem necessary. RULES Order of Business The following shall be the order of business of the Council: CALL TO ORDER PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE ROLL CALL APPROVAL OF MEETING AGENDA PROCLAMATIONS AND RECOGNITIONS F:ACounci] MeetingSQ012\01102072\standing rules of conduct.doc 2012 30 CONSENT AGENDA These items are considered routine and will be enacted by one motion. There will be no separate discussion of these items unless a Councilmember or citizen so requests, in which event the item will be removed from the Consent Agenda and placed elsewhere on the agenda. Donations to the city will be handled in the same accordance as long as it follows the City of St. Anthony Donation ;Policy. PUBLIC HEARING COMMISSIONS AND STAFF REPORTS REPORTS FROM COUNCILMEMBERS AND CITY MANAGER COMMUNITY FORUM Individuals may address the City Council about any item not included on the regular agenda. Speakers are requested to come to the podium, state their name and address for the secretary's records, and limit their remarks to five minutes. Generally, the City Council will not take official action on items discusses{ at this time, but may typically refer the matter to staff for a future report or direct that the matter be scheduled on a upcoming agendas. INFORMATION AND ANNOUNCEMENTS ADJOURNMENT AGENDA To be considered, an item must on the agenda and the agenda must be distributed to all the Councilmembers and any other persons having responsibility for an item at least three working clays prior to the meeting. An agenda can be modified with addenda by a majority vote but this should be used only for minor items or items with extreme time constraints. An item can be moved from the consent agenda to the action agenda at the request of any Councilmember. Since there will be audience and cable TV viewers not familiar with each item, the Mayor will give a brief explanation of each item as it is addressed. The order of items on the agenda need not be followed absolutely. The Mayor may adjust the order in the interest of: Filling in time before a scheduled item, i.e. a public hearing. Grouping several items to best make use of consultant time. F:ACouncil Meetings\2012\01102012\standing riles of conduct.doc 2012 31 • Accommodating individuals who have attended the meeting specifically to provide input on an item. PROCESS REGULAR AND SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETINGS For these proceedings the Council will use the "open discussion" procedure. That is, discussion is open to any member before or after a motion is made. The privilege is also extended to the City Manager, and any of the consultants who may have an interest in or can contribute to the item at hand. The Mayor can make liberal use of the "unanimous consent" procedure. That is, items that in the judgment of the Mayor are likely to be unanimously approved can be introduced for approval with the statement: "If there are no objections, stands approved (or denied)." If any Council member has an objection, the item reverts to the standard motion procedure. This "unanimous consent" procedure cannot be used for items requiring formal votes, i.e., resolutions or for approval of the consent agenda. The standard motion procedure is that each motion requires a second. This also applies to amendments. Any motion, by any member shall be reduced to writing upon request of any member. No motion shall be put to a vote until it has been stated by the recorder at the request of any member of the Council. To eliminate confusion, only one amendment will be considered at a time and that amendment must be germane to the motion. An amendment cannot itself be amended. If a change to an amendment is deemed appropriate, the amendment should be withdrawn and reintroduced accordingly. The general mode of voting will be by acclamation but with enough clarity that the individual votes can be recorded in the minutes. If in doubt, the clerk can request clarification. Each individual's vote will be entered in the minutes. Any member may abstain from voting or disqualify himself/ herself. The reason for disqualification or abstention must be stated by the member and entered into the minutes. If a member disqualifies himself/ herself, he/she may leave the room while the issue is being considered. Roberts Rules of Order (revised) shall govern the Council procedures not covered by the standing rules of the council. The meeting will be video taped and the tape will be retained for 3 months following approval of the minutes of the meeting. The standard retention can be extended if in the judgment of the Mayor, City Clerk or any other Councilmember, such action is warranted. F:ACounciI Meetings\2012\01102012\standing rules ofconductdoc 2012 32 If the Council action is the result of a resident request and that request is denied in whole or in part, reasons of the fact supporting the denial will be made part of the public record. PROCESS - PUBLIC HEARING Since a public hearing is a more formal procedure and often requires certain procedures and actions to be legal, the meeting rules are changed accordingly. The primary aim of a public hearing is to take input from the public. To accomplish this in the most effective manner, the Mayor will introduce the hearing with an explanation of the issues. The Mayor will give this explanation or a person designated by the Mayor. The use of explanatory visual aids is encouraged. Following the explanation, input from the public will be taken. Prior to accepting input though, the Mayor will state the areas where input will be appropriate, the maximum time to be allotted to any individual presenter and any other procedural rules deemed appropriate to guarantee that all concerned parties have a fair and adequate opportunity to be heard. All individuals wishing to speak must fill out and submit and identification form and speak in to a recording microphone. Individuals not wishing to speak in public may provide a written statement. The Council may take up to 1.5 minutes to review written statements presented at the meeting. If the Council decides not to act on the issue at the public hearing meeting, it may by majority vote extend the time where written input will be taken to a day not later than one week before the next meeting where a deciding vote is planned. All speakers are expected to be business -like, to the point and courteous. Anyone not abiding by these rules will be considered to out of order. The Council will refrain from initiating a discussion during the public input phase of the hearing except to clarify points brought up. Once the public testimony phase is complete, the Mayor will announce the public hearing to be closed and the Council will revert back to its open discussion mode of operation. From this point on, public input will only be appropriate when solicited by the Council. It shall be the intent of the Council to vote on the issue at the same meeting as the public hearing and as close in time to the public hearing as possible. Should it be necessary to defer voting until a later date, the procedure will be clearly explained to the audience. F:ACouncil Meetings\2012\01102012\standing rules of conduct.doc 2012 33 If the motion contains conditions, as may occur in conditional use or variance requests, those conditions will be conveyed in writing to the requester. If the public hearing is the .result of a resident request and that request is denied in whole or in part, reasons of fact supporting the denial will be made part of the public record. If the public hearing is to set an assessment rate, the assessment formula(s) under discussion cannot be altered. This implies that the Council has fully discussed any formulas prior to the hearing and that the appropriate legal, fiscal and engineering consultants have passed on formula(s) viability, legality, and feasibility. If the hearing is to set an assessment, it cannot be scheduled later than the first meeting in September. This is to allow time to correct errors prior to the time needed to certify the rolls to the county. MAYOR PRO TEM The Mayor Pro tem shall be appointed in January of each year. The first Mayor Pro tem after adoption of this rule shall be the Councilmember with the most continuous time on the Council. The position shall be rotated among Councilmembers based on time of continuous service. If two or more members have identical seniority, the appointment shall be based on alphabetical order by last name. A Councilmember may not serve as Mayor Pro tem twice until all other Councilmembers have been Mayor Pro tem. A Councilmember must serve two years before being considered for Mayor Pro tem. A Councilmember may decline the appointment for good cause and maintain his/her place in the rotation for appointment the following year. ADOPTION/MODIFICATON/SUSPENSION These rules can be adopted, modified or suspended in whole or in part by a majority vote of the Council. If suspended they are automatically reinstated at the next meeting. ANNUAL REVIEW These rules will be reviewed annually at the first meeting in January. INTERPRETATION The Mayor will interpret the rules. However, the Mayor's interpretation can be appealed by any Councilmember and can be overruled by a majority vote.

ATTEST: Mayor City Clerk Reviewed for administration: _ City Manager STAFF REPORT 1 To: Mayor and Council Members Mark Casey, City Manager From: Ism Moore, assistant Cite MI an- ager January 10, 2012 Subject: Hennepin County Medical Clinic Anthony Market Place Requested Action: Council Consideration Date Application Received: Proneirty Address: Zoning District: 60 -Darr Expires: Waiver Letter Required: Future Action: November 9, 2011 2714—H,,vT88 Commercial January 9, 2012; March 9, 2012 Yes X Date Sent: December 13, 2011 No Background: Staff received a call from Richard Lang of Visual Comm-nunications Signs, requesting information on the process to apply fora variance. Staff had previously reviewed a sign plan for the Hennepin County Medical Center Clinic, which has located a facility at the St. Anthony Market Place Shopping Center. Staff advised Mr. Lang that the requested second identification sign which is proposed to be placed above the entrance, requires a variance because the City allows only one identification sign per right-of-way frontage per commercial establishment. Mr. Lang reported that the owners of the clinic are concerned that patients may not recognize the entrance as an entrance without this additional identification sign. Analysis. The clinic submitted as part of an overall sign plan, a request for two (2) wall signs identifying the clinic on the same wall. 0,155.29 DIS"T'RIC1 S SCHEDULES, (B)(1) states that for Commercial and li rdted businesses, one (1) identification (wall) sign per right-of-way frontage per commercial establishment is allowed. This sign may have no more than 2 SF of surface area per lineal foot of business frontage, up to a maximurn of 150 SF. The proposed main wall sign is 64.6 SF; the proposed smaller wall sign to be placed over the entrance is 25.5 SF 01155.03 DEFINITIONS defines an identification sign as a sign which is a non-commercial sign but is limited to the name, address, and number of a building, institution or person and to the activity carried on in the building or institution or the occupation of the person. Application Review As part of the application process, the applicant is required to provide evidence that discloses facts that are unique to the subject property. Section 152.245 of the City Ordinance outlines the requirements that must be addressed to qualify for a variance and the process by which a variance is granted. Specifically= Section l 52,245 C states that: no variance will be ranted unless evidence presented supports the following facts that strict 52 O g'� (' pl g > enforcement would cause practical difficulties because: The property cannot be put to a reasonable use without the variance. Staff did not find any evidence that a second identification sign would improve the tenant's ability to put this property to reasonable use. It is possible that there may be confusion about the location of the entrance to the clinic, but as time goes on, the exact entrance will become known to the community and the clinic's patients. The circumstances cansin r the practical difficulties were not created by the owner. The circumstances of the perceived practical difficulties are not of the applicant's making. Staff does agree the architectural design of the front of the building does hint that there may be two (2) separate businesses. The variance. if erant:ed will not alter the essential characteristics of the locality. The applicant states that adding a second identification sign would not alter the essential character of the locality. Staff feels that since no other: business in the Market Place Shopping Center has a second identification sign, allowing a variance to the Sign Ordinance could potentially create a situation that does change the character of the locality. Economic considerations alone erre not the basis of the practical difficulties. The applicant admits that adding a second sign is not an economic consideration or the basis of their perceived practical difficulty. Their clinic essentially occupies two (2) units and the frontage looks arclutectu ally different giving the visual sense that there are two (2) businesses instead of one (1). The circumstances causing the practical difficulty are unique. to the individual lot. The applicant feels that the practical difficulties that they foresee are unique to the individual site. Their clinic essentially occupies two (2) units and the frontage looks architecturally different giving the visual sense that there are two (2) businesses instead of one (1). The granting of the vqriance is in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Land Use Plan. Staff could find no evidence that the applicant's request is in keeping with the spirit and intent of the City's Zoning Code or Comprehensive Land Use Plan. Action: 13stablish Findings of Fact for this request, based on information and testimony presented by the applicants, the public and staff and pass a recommendation to Council regarding the variance request to the City's Sign Ordinance for a second identification sign. Communications: Staff received one phone call regarding this application and the caller was against the variance request to allow a second identification sign.

The clinic has a large storefront however, the patient entrance is located to the far right of the store on a fascia that is setback from the main storefront elevation. It is essential that users of all ages and physical disabilities, medical conditions understand where the main entry is for ease in approaching the facility, from vehicular traffic or when being dropped off. Currently the larger sign centered on the brick fascia is intended to act as identification and advertising for the clinic as there is not a possibility of ground monument identification. The sign requiring the Variance on the setback elevation is meant to direct users to the entrance in a more user friendly manner while providing lighting on the "Entrance" letters and sidewalk.. The signage has been designed with down lighting to illuminate the "Entrance" non illuminated letters which are essential during when daylight savings time is not in use during the dark winter months. The signage for each wall surface is less than 15% of the wall surface per (1 1) Signs on walls.
