G.5 Approve Resolution Restricting Parking Along Portions of 147th Street Improvements to 147th Street includes reconstructing the existing portion of 147th Street from Flay Avenue to Finale Avenue and extending a new street section from Finale Avenue to Oneka Parkway. 147th Street has been designated as a Municipal State Aid (MSA) roadway and will be required to be constructed to meet the design requirements set forth by MnDOT as the City will be expending MSA funds for the project. Staff recommends approval of the resolution restricting parking along both sides 147th Street from Forest Boulevard (TH 61) to Oneka Parkway as the proposed pavement widths do not provide adequate width for parking on the street. G.6 Approve Resolution Rescinding the Local Emergency A local emergency was declared by Mayor Weidt on March 18, 2020, in response to the COVID- 19 Pandemic. On March 20, 2020, the Council approved a resolution to extend the Mayor declared local emergency. Though no actions were ever taken, this declaration put the City in a state of readiness should it need to make decisions quickly. At its March 15, 2021, the Hugo City Council discussed the COVID-19 pandemic and unanimously approved rescinding the City’s local emergency powers. Staff recommends Council approve the resolution rescinding the local emergency effective midnight, March 15, 2021. G.7 Approve Resolutions Approving Variance and CUP Amendment for Xcel Energy - 13620 Fenway Boulevard North Xcel Energy currently owns and operates a training facility on property located at 13620 Fenway Boulevard North and is proposing to construct additional training facilities to include a “mock” transmission line. The transmission line is proposed to have approximately 12 utility poles of various types and heights. This requires a conditional use permit amendment to amend the site plan for utility pole locations in the conditional use permit. The applicant is also requesting a variance from the maximum building height for the training poles to be 72 feet tall, where 50 feet is required by ordinance for structures and buildings. At its March 25, 2021 meeting, the Hugo Planning Commission held a public hearing and considered the requests. There were no residents who spoke during the public hearing. The Planning Commission found that the applications meet all requirements necessary for approval and recommended that the City Council approve the variance and CUP amendment for Xcel Energy for property located at 13620 Fenway Boulevard North. G.8 Approve Property Line Adjustment on 9604 170th Street North – Scott Johnson Scott Johnson is requesting approval of a property line adjustment for the properties located 9604 170th Street North. The applicant is proposing to adjust the common property line between the properties. The existing Parcel A is 2 acres and Parcel B is 37.33 acres. This adjustment will result in Parcel A totaling 3.7 acres and Parcel B totaling 35.63 acres. Staff finds that the property line adjustment reduces the extent of any nonconformities. Staff recommends approval of the resolution approving a property line adjustment for Scott Johnson for the properties located at 9604 170th Street North.
