Drengson May Enterprises, LLC, is requesting approval of a property line adjustment, variance, minor subdivision, preliminary plat, final plat, and development agreement for a residential development to be known as “Acres of Bald Eagle” consisting of nine single family homes on approximately 13 acres of property. At its July 8, 2021, meeting the Planning Commission held a public hearing and considered the request. Staff recommended approval of the applications subject to the conditions in the resolutions.

Minnesota statues allow cities to issue General Obligation Tax Abatement Bonds to finance the construction of public facilities; including parks and recreation and community centers. The statutes require that a hearing be held to gather public input regarding the establishment of a tax abatement area for financing the public improvements. Mikaela Huot from Baker Tilly will present information to the Council regarding the use of tax abatement to finance the Lions Park improvements and related public improvements.

Each city in the county could apply for $40,000 per year with a 1:1 match. The match could be local or by a private entity or landowner; however, the City was required to apply for the grant. Marvin and Judith LaValle had requested that the City apply for the grant for land use planning for their property south of County Road 8 and west of Highway 61.

He showed the sketch plan that consisted of nine lots adjacent to 121st Street and explained the preliminary design had utilities extended Hugo City Council Meeting Minutes for June 21, 2021 Page 7 of 9 past 12 existing properties that were not included in the concept plan. These property owners had individual wells and septic systems and were interest in connecting. Erichson showed the utilities being proposed and the properties that would be assessed. The improvements funded through assessments would be sanitary sewer from the development street to two existing properties on Falcon Avenue and sewer and water service to properties abutting 121st Street and Falcon Avenue.

All Ayes. Motion carried. Discussions on Possible DNR Restrictions Concerning Outdoor Water Use City Administrator Bryan Bear informed Council that the City had been notified by the DNR that an order banning outdoor water use may be forthcoming if drought conditions continued. Community Development Assistant Emily Weber presented information on what the City’s role would be when such and order is issued. Weber provided background on the City’s Local Water Supply Plan that stated how to allocate water during an emergency and outlined the City’s conservation objectives and strategies. City Code also allowed the Council to adopt a resolution imposing regulations. A resolution adopted in 2001 imposed an odd/even watering restriction on properties that used the City’s water supply system. Addresses ending in an odd number could water on odd days, even number on even days, except for new sod and vegetation. A resolution was also adopted that established a $25 penalty for the first offense and $50 for each subsequent offences within one year. Weber explained if dry conditions continued, the MN DNR may ask cities to implement water restrictions. Additionally, if the Governor declared a critical water deficiency by executive order, Hugo would need to adopt and enforce water conservation restrictions on non-essential uses as outlined in MN State Statute. Weber explained that stormwater reuse projects helped the City conserve water, and there was no concern with the City’s infrastructure meeting demand; however, concerning behaviors pertaining to water usage had been noticed such as water during the middle of the day, and residents were concerned about low stormwater ponds. She asked Council to discuss the current water restrictions and stated there was an opportunity to educate residents. Hugo City Council Meeting Minutes for June 21, 2021 Page 8 of 9 It was asked by Council if the levels of the current stormwater ponds were meeting their minimum and if some of the stormwater reuse systems were converting to City water. Bear replied that there were a couple of ponds that were very low, and restrictions placed on residents by their HOAs were causing some residents to connect a hose to the City’s water supply for outside irrigation. It was asked if even/odd restriction applied to private wells, and it was explained the resolution only pertained to City water. Bear talked about neighborhoods continuing the frequent watering that began when they were establishing sod. This was monitored and regulated by the HOAs. Weidt talked about how fragile access to water was and felt education needed to be done. Rules needed to be considered that included stormwater ponds. The Council generally agreed it was important to be proactive. It was suggested engaging the HOAs to help with implementation and education on water conservation. There was also a suggestion to send a friendly letter to the top water users, as was done in the past, as a reminder and heads up that more restrictive measures may be forthcoming. Weidt made motion, Klein seconded, to direct staff to look at the City’s ordinance to strengthen the requirements and language on both the City water users and water reuse users and to work on the education piece. All Ayes. Motion carried. Cancel July 5, 2021 Council Meeting City Administrator Bryan Bear informed Council the first regular Council meeting in July was on July 5, 2021, the same day as Independence Day (4th of July) was observed.

We have reviewed the project plans dated 4/28/2021, and geotechnical report dated 9/30/2020. In lieu of an actual construction schedule, NTI has endeavored to provide the City of Hugo with our best value proposal focusing on quality of service and cost effectiveness. The length of on-site activities significantly affects the frequency and duration of on-site observation and testing. When a schedule becomes available, we can refine our estimate to represent the timeline more accurately. Our current estimate is based upon the provided documents and previous experience on similar projects. PROJECT INFORMATION This section provides the basis for our best value proposal outlining the interpreted scope of the project, noted construction type, construction schedule, and specific conditions. The following construction testing, and special inspections scope of work includes the following considerations: • The proposed project consists of a 5,500 SF pavilion, located in Lions Park at 5524 Upper 146th Street North in Hugo, Minnesota. • Scope of work included in this proposal are as follows: excavation observation and soil testing, concrete testing and observation, and structural steel special inspection. • Scope of work not included in this proposal but can be provided, if needed, are as follows: structural steel fabrication shop special inspections if the fabricator chosen is not AISC certified and observation and testing services for firestopping or fireproofing materials. • The RFP stated that all exterior work was not part of the scope of this project; only items from the structural drawings were included. No sidewalk, curb, or other exterior work is included in our estimate. • Comparing the Finley street centerline versus the boring location map, it appears the building has been moved since soil borings were taken. Time for test pits and observations are therefore included. • All other considerations are considered standard and included in the scope of work section of this document.

Recitals. (a) The Internal Revenue Service has issued Treasury Regulations, Section 1.150-2 (as the same may be amended or supplemented, the "Regulations"), dealing with "reimbursement bond" proceeds, being proceeds of bonds used to reimburse the City for any project expenditure paid by the City prior to the time of the issuance of those bonds. (b) The Regulations generally require that the City (as the issuer of or the primary obligor under the bonds) make a declaration of intent to reimburse itself for such prior expenditures out of the proceeds of subsequently issued bonds, that such declaration be made not later than 60 days after the expenditure is actually paid, and that the bonding occur and the written reimbursement allocation be made from the proceeds of such bonds within 18 months after the later of (1) the date of payment of the expenditure or (2) the date the project is placed in service (but in no event more than 3 years after actual payment). 2. Official Intent Declaration. The Regulations, in the situations in which they apply, require the City to have declared an official intent (the "Declaration") to reimburse itself for previously paid project expenditures out of the proceeds of subsequently issued bonds. The Council hereby authorizes the Administrator to make the City's Declarations or to delegate from time to time that responsibility to other appropriate City employees. Each Declaration shall comply with the requirements of the Regulations, including without limitation the following: (a) Each Declaration shall be made not later than 60 days after payment of the applicable project cost and shall state that the City reasonably expects to reimburse itself for the expenditure out of the proceeds of a bond issue or similar borrowing. Each Declaration may be made substantially in the form of the Exhibit A which is attached to and made a part of this Resolution, or in any other format which may at the time comply with the Regulations. (b) Each Declaration shall (1) contain a reasonably accurate description of the "project," as defined in the Regulations (which may include the property or program to be financed, as applicable), to which the expenditure relates and (2) state the maximum principal amount of bonding expected to be issued for that project. (c) Care shall be taken so that the City, or its authorized representatives under this Resolution, not make Declarations in cases where the City doesn't reasonably expect that reimbursement bonds will be issued to finance the subject project costs, and the City 2 officials are hereby authorized to consult with bond counsel to the City concerning the requirements of the Regulations and their application in particular circumstances. (d) The Council shall be advised from time to time on the desirability and timing of the issuance of reimbursement bonds relating to project expenditures for which the City has made Declarations. 3. Reimbursement Allocations. If the City is acting as the issuer of the reimbursement bonds, the designated City officials shall also be responsible for making the "reimbursement allocations" described in the Regulations, being generally written allocations that evidence the City's use of the applicable bond proceeds to reimburse the original expenditures. 4. Effect. This Resolution shall amend and supplement all prior resolutions and/or procedures adopted by the City for compliance with the Regulations (or their predecessor versions), and, henceforth, in the event of any inconsistency, the provisions of this Resolution shall apply and govern. Adopted on July 19, 2021, by the City Council of the City of Hugo, Minnesota. ________________________ Tom Weidt, Mayor ATTEST: ________________________ Michele Lindau, City Clerk 3 CERTIFICATION The undersigned, being the duly qualified and acting Administrator of the City of Hugo, Minnesota, hereby certifies the following: The foregoing is true and correct copy of a Resolution on file and of official, publicly available record in the offices of the City, which Resolution relates to procedures of the City for compliance with certain IRS Regulations on reimbursement bonds.

Date: July 19, 2021 _______________________________________ Interim Finance Director City of Hugo, Minnesota Agenda Number H.1 CITY OF HUGO COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT PLANNING AND ZONING APPLICATION STAFF REPORT TO: Bryan Bear, City Administrator FROM: Rachel Juba, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Drengson May Enterprises, LLC. Request for Variance, Property Line Adjustment, Minor Subdivision, Preliminary Plat, Final Plat, and Development Agreement for a residential development to be known as “Acres of Bald Eagle” consisting of 9 single family homes on approximately 13 acres (3 existing lots) of property located north of 121st Street North and West of Falcon Avenue North. DATE: July 14, 2021, for the City Council Meeting of July 19, 2021 ZONING: Large Lot Single Family Residential (R-1) LAND USE: Very Low Density Residential (VLD) REVIEW DEADLINE: July 22, 2021 (120-days) 1. PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING UPDATE: At its July 8, 2021, meeting the Planning Commission held a public hearing and considered the request. Staff recommended approval of the applications subject to the conditions in the resolutions. There were several residents that spoke during the public hearing on a variety of topics. The concerns were regarding the amount of height of homes, wildlife, preservation of trees, grading, drainage, and flooding. Staff stated that the maximum height of the homes is required to be 35 feet on all of the lots except lots 8 and 9 where a maximum of 25 feet is required by ordinance in the shoreland overlay district. The applicant is proposing to remove a several trees on the west side of the development in the area of lots 1-7. This is due to the grading and the stormwater management facilities for the site. The applicant stated that they are working with their engineer and tree company to save as many trees has they can. Staff stated that the residents should expect the several trees will be removed. The residents to the north stated they wanted to ensure the trees on their property were not damaged during construction. Staff stated that they are working with the applicant to pull the grading away from the adjacent property lines. There were also a few residents concern about the drainage and flooding of their property because of the development. Acres of Bald Eagle Page 2 Staff stated that the drainage will remain on the development property and is required to meet all stormwater management regulations determined by the Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD). The Planning Commission reviewed all of the questions and concerns again with staff. Two Commissioner’s stated they think there is an effort from the applicant to save the trees they can on the property. One Commissioner stated they think the applicant has created a development that will fit in with the character of the area. The Planning Commission had questions about the drainage, however stated they have confidence in the engineering design. The Planning Commission agreed that the requirements were met to approve the applications. The Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval of the Variance, Property Line Adjustment, Minor Subdivision, and Preliminary Plat, for a residential development to be known as “Acres of Bald Eagle” 2. DESCRIPTION OF REQUEST: The applicant is requesting approval of a property line adjustment, variance, minor subdivision, preliminary plat, final plat, and development agreement for a residential development to be known as “Acres of Bald Eagle” consisting of 9 single family homes on approximately 13 acres of property. 3. BACKGROUND: Earlier this year the Planning Commission reviewed a sketch plan for this property and provided informal comments to the applicant on the plan. The sketch plan was completed to get comments from the Planning Commission and City Council prior to moving forward with the formal development approval process. The proposed development looks very similar to the sketch plan. The Planning Commission and City Council generally thought that the layout of the development was in character with the surrounding neighborhood. They stated that the variance for the lots to the west seemed reasonable because of the unique shape and access points of the property. The utilities would need to be extended past several properties that are not included in the in the sketch plan. The applicant met with the surrounding property owners and indicated that some of the property owners are interested in connecting to municipal sewer and/or water if they were to become available, with possible assessments. In this case, the construction cost would be paid with assessments. They City Council discussed the road and utility construction that is required for development of the property and stated that since there is some interest from adjacent property owners for connection to sewer and water that a neighborhood meeting should be held. In April staff held a neighborhood meeting to gage interest from the adjacent properties to construct a public improvement project for sewer and water with assessments to those properties. Staff provided high-level cost estimates for the assessments for the project. There were several questions from the property owners on the project and assessments. The neighborhood meeting went well and there were several properties owners interested a public improvement project with assessments. There was general consensus to move forward with the public improvement project. Acres of Bald Eagle Page 3 The developer will be responsible for the any improvements that are required with the development, including the paving of 121st Street. If the development does not move forward, the public improvement project will not move forward. 4. CONTEXT: A. Surrounding Land Use and Zoning The properties surrounding the proposed development are zoned Large Lot Single Family Residential (R-1) and are occupied by single family homes. B. Natural Site Characteristics There is a large wetland in the center of the development site. The applicant is not proposing to impact the wetland. There are several trees and brush on the property. 5. ANALYSIS: A. Level of City Discretion in Decision-Making The City’s discretion in approving or denying a variance is limited to whether or not the proposed project meets the standards in the Zoning Ordinance for a variance. The City has a higher level of discretion with a variance because the burden of proof is on the applicant to show that they meet the standards for variances in the ordinance. Where adjacent property owners desire to adjust their mutual lot line without creating a new parcel or lot of record, they may request a property line adjustment. The City has limited discretion in approving or denying a minor subdivision application. The City’s discretion is limited to whether or not the proposed subdivision meets the standards outlined in the Comprehensive Land Use Regulations. If it meets these standards, the City must approve the subdivision. The City has limited discretion in approving or denying a preliminary plat and final plat is limited to whether or not the proposed plat meets the standards outlined in the Comprehensive Land Use Regulations. If it meets these standards, the City must approve the preliminary plat and final plat. B. Consistency with Ordinance Standards Variance, Property Line Adjustment, Minor Subdivision, Preliminary Plat, and Final Plat The property line adjustment, variance and minor subdivision relate to the existing property to the west and an adjacent property along 121st Street. Acres of Bald Eagle Page 4 The minor subdivision creates two new lots parcel A (1.5 acres) and parcel B (4.18 acres). Parcel B is further subdivided with the preliminary plat into two lots. The applicant is proposing a property line adjustment with parcel B and an adjacent property along 121st Street. The property line increases the lot width along 121st Street for parcel B from 16.46 feet to 28 feet wide and it is further increased to 38 feet side with the preliminary plat discussed later in this report (Lot 8). Additional property is also added to the adjacent property on the north side of the property. Each property stays the same size with the property line adjustment. The preliminary plat and final plat is proposed to subdivide the new parcel B (4.18 acres) and the two existing parcels to the east (4.99 acres and 4.78 acres) into 9 lots. The total buildable acreage for the property is 12.39 acres with the net density of .73 units per acres. This meets the density requirements for the R-1 zoning district and the 2040 Comprehensive Plan land use. Lot Size The R-1 zoning district requires a minimum lot size of 1 acre and a minimum lot width of 150 feet. The lots compl y with the ordinance standards, except the lot width on parcels 8 and 9 of the preliminary p lat. The applicant has requested a variance for the lot widths to 38 feet for lot 8 and 30 feet for lot 9, where 150 feet is required by ordinance for the R-1 zoning district. Further, lots 8 and 9 are in the shoreland overlay district because they are within 1000 feet of Bald Eagle Lake. The shoreland ordinance allows a lot width in that area to be 80 feet wide for lots that are served by municipal sewer. Both lots are proposed to the served by municipal sewer. 1. Variance Standards The Planning Commission must review the requested variances with the standards outlined in Section 90-38 of the City Code. Staff used these standards to review the variance request and finds the following: (1) Law. The variance as requested is permissible by law. The proposed variance is permissible by law. (2) Practical Difficulties. The applicant for a variance shall establish that there are practical difficulties in complying with the provisions of the zoning regulations. The term “Practical Difficulties” as used in the granting of a variance means: a. Reasonable Use. The property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not permitted by the zoning ordinance and; The existing west property is 5.36 acres in size and can be subdivided. The applicant is proposing to subdivide the property into lots that are larger than the minimum lot size of 1 acre as required by the R-1 zoning district. The applicant is proposing to use the property in a reasonable manner. Acres of Bald Eagle Page 5 b. Unique Circumstances. The plight of property owner is due to circumstances unique to the property not created by the landowner and; The shape of the property is unique in that has three separate access points to public streets, two on Everton Avenue North and one on 121st Street North. Besides the access point for the existing house that will remain, the other access points do not meet the minimum lot width requirements. The property has been this shape for several decades and staff did not find any information on how it became this way. c. Character of Neighborhood. The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the neighborhood. There are other properties in the area that do not meet the lot width requirements for the zoning district and the proposed variance would not noticeably change the character of the area. (3) Spirit and Intent. The granting of the variance would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of this chapter and with the policies of the City’s Comprehensive Plan. The spirit and intent of the zoning regulations is to establish lot width requirements for subdivisions in each zoning district. The property currently has three access points two along Everton Avenue and one along 121st Street. Currently the property could be accessed by any of the access points. The existing home is remaining on site. The applicant is proposing to subdivide the property and gain access to lots 8 and 9 through the other access points along Everton Avenue and 121st Street. It is in staff’s opinion that the spirit and intent of the ordinance is meet. (4) Prohibited Use. The variance, if granted, shall not have the effect of allowing any use prohibited in the district. A residential lot is allowed in the City Code. (5) Hazard Consideration. The variance, if granted, shall not permit a lower degree of flood protection than required by this chapter. The variance shall be determined the minimum necessary, considering the flood hazard, to afford relief, and the variance shall not be issued within any designated regulatory floodway if any increase in flood levels during the base flood discharge would result. The property is not located within a FEMA designated floodplain. (6) Septic and Well Compliance. The sewage treatment system and water system of the subject property is in compliance with city and state codes. The property is proposed to be served by City sewer and water. Acres of Bald Eagle Page 6 Setbacks The minimum required setbacks for the R-1 zoning district are as follows: Front yard: 30 feet Side yard: 10 feet Rear yard: 30 feet The proposed development meets the setback requirements. Further, lots 8 and 9 meet the shoreland ordinance setback requirement of 100 feet from the ordinary high water mark of Bald Eagle Lake. Building Height The maximum building height in the R-1 zoning district is 35 feet. Lots 8 and 9 in the shoreland overlay district shall be a maximum of 25 feet in height. Landscaping/Lighting The landscape ordinance requires two over-story shade trees in the front yard of each lot. The applicant did not submit a landscape plan for the development, however they will be required to install two over-story shade trees in the front yard. The developer shall submit a landscape plan for review and approval by the City. The applicant has not submitted a lighting plan for the development, however they will be required to meet the requirement for street lighting in residential zoning districts. The street lighting shall be reviewed and approved by City staff prior to installation. Streets/Access The property is located along 121st Street North, which is a gravel roadway. The existing house located is proposed to continue to have its driveway connection to Everton Avenue North, as well as the proposed house to be located on Lot 9. Lot 8 is proposed to have a connection to 121st Street North. Lots 1-7 will be located on the new public street and it shall be an urban-section paved roadway with curb and gutter, with access to 121st Street. 121st Street North is currently a rural-section roadway with a gravel surface. The entire length of the street, from Everton Avenue to Falcon Avenue, shall be constructed as rural-section paved roadway. Utilities Development of the site requires connections to municipal utilities. Sanitary sewer service is available in the middle of the site via the Met Council sewer interceptor. Water service is available within 700 feet to the west on Everton Avenue North. The utilities would need to be extended to the property and to the property boundaries. Acres of Bald Eagle Page 7 The utilities would need to be extended past several properties that are not included in the in the sketch plan. The applicant has been meeting with the surrounding property owners and has indicated that some of the property owners are interested in connecting to municipal sewer and/or water if they were to become available, with possible assessments. In this case, the construction cost would be paid with assessments. In April staff held a neighborhood meeting to gage interest from the adjacent properties to construct a public improvement project for sewer and water with assessments to those properties. Staff provided high-level cost estimates for the assessments for the project. There were several questions from the property owner on the project and assessments. The neighborhood meeting went well and there were several properties owners interested a public improvement project with assessments. There was general consensus to move forward with the public improvement project. A public hearing for the public improvement project with assessments is scheduled for Monday, July 19, 2021, at 7 pm at the City Council meeting in the City Hall Council Chambers. The developer will be responsible for the any improvements that are required with the development, including the paving of 121st Street. If the development does not move forward, the public improvement project will not move forward. Further, in order for the public improvement to move forward the developer shall execute the development agreement and final plat, and pay all fees including the cost of improvements that are required for the development, including the paving of 121st Street. If the public improvement project does not move forward, the developer will be required to construct and pay for all of the improvements required for the development. Drainage/Grading The proposed plans are consistent with City storm water management requirements with regard to the building elevation, storage, treatment, and infiltration. Staff is working with the applicant to make a few minor modifications to the storm water management plans; however, none of the modifications will require a change in the overall plan. The ponds are also being excavated for soil to construct the pad sites for the homes in the development. Additional detailed comments on the drainage design and stormwater management system have been provided to the applicant and will need to be addressed as the project moves forward. Staff recommends that the grading proposed close to the north and east adjacent property lines be moved away from the adjacent properties to ensure there is not damage to existing trees in that area. Staff will continue to work with the applicant on this dimension and it is included as a condition of approval. Stormwater reuse is not proposed for this development as there are only infiltration basins proposed and they will not hold enough water for a stormwater reuse system. Park Dedication Acres of Bald Eagle Page 8 The property is served by Oak Shore Park and Bald Eagle-Otter Lake Regional Park. The applicant will be required to pay park dedication fee of $2,400 per new unit which totals $16,800. There are 3 existing lots, so 7 of the lots are considered in the total. At its February 17, 2021, meeting the Parks Commission stated that the dedication fee in lieu land dedication was acceptable. Development Agreement The development agreement is written as if public improvement is moving forward. If the public improvement project does not move forward, the language for requirement improvements will be revised along with the required fees. 6.CONCLUSION: Staff finds that the development meets the criteria necessary to approve a variance, property line adjustment, and minor subdivision. Further, the development is consistent with comprehensive land use regulations and subdivision regulations for the property for the preliminary plat and final plat. 7.STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of property line adjustment, variance, minor subdivision, preliminary plat, final plat, and development agreement for a residential development to be known as “Acres of Bald Eagle”, subject to the findings in the attached resolution and review and approval of the development agreement by the City Attorney. 8.PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: The Planning Commission agreed that the requirements were met to approve the applications.

Lots 8 and 9 will take access directly from 121st Street and Everton Avenue, respectively. 5. Additional detailed comments on the street and utility system have been provided to the applicant and will need to be addressed as the project moves forward. 6. Overall grading adjacent to property line will require separation to not impact trees near the property line on adjacent properties. 7. Drainage and utility easements appear to adequately cover the stormwater features, utility pipes, and existing wetlands with possibly minor exceptions noted on our redline plan set.

Watermain is available to the 121st Street corridor and Drengson Property via the existing watermain located within Everton Avenue. The applicant is proposing to extend watermain to their east plat line and into their subdivision at their proposed street entrance. 9. Sanitary Sewer Service is available to serve the property as well as other properties within the 121st Street corridor from the MCES 42” Interceptor that extends along the Drengson’s west property line. The applicant is proposing to extend an 8” sanitary sewer within their development and to their east plat lines along 121st Street. 10. Other property owners have expressed interest in receiving sewer and/or water service as well. An informational meeting was held to discuss what a public improvement project would look like and to gage interest from the adjacent properties. 11. Hugo City Council received a feasibility study that outlines a public improvement project that includes sanitary sewer, watermain, storm sewer and street improvements for both the development and existing properties along 121st Street and the three parcels adjacent to this development along Falcon Avenue. Hugo City Council set a public hearing for these public Improvements for July 19, 2021. Assessments for sewer and water services extended to adjacent properties would be assessed, with all other remaining costs to be paid for by the developer as part of the Development Agreement terms. Stormwater Management/Wetlands 12. The development is meeting stormwater management requirements through the use of on- site infiltration basins. Infiltration basins are being designed to provide the required water quality volume and to meet rate control restrictions. 13. The proposed development will collect and route drainage from a portion of 121st Street which will be reconstructed concurrently with the development. Based on the area of impervious of the 121st Street project, stormwater management is not required however drainage will still be routed through the Acres of Bald Eagle site for water quality treatment. 14. Documentation will be required to confirm hydrology to the wetland onsite are being maintained post construction. If hydrology is not being maintained that would be considered a wetland impact and would require wetland mitigation. 15. Proposed structures are currently shown to meet freeboard requirements. If stormwater management design is modified, applicant will need to confirm freeboard requirements continue to be met. 16. Stormwater reuse is not proposed for this development as there are only infiltration basins proposed. 17. Additional detailed comments on the drainage design and stormwater management system have been provided to the applicant and will need to be addressed as the project moves forward. Thank you for the opportunity to provide comments on this project. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at 651-286-8463.

The proposed project lies easterly of Everton Avenue North and northerly of 121st Street North in the City of Hugo. We are proposing to replat the 3 existing parcels, which total approximately 15.02 acres, into 10 single family lots. There is an existing home that would remain on one of the proposed lots (lot 10), which would meet all existing R1 standards. On the east 9.78 acres, there will be a short cul-de-sac surrounded by seven new SF homes. Along the cul- de-sac, we plan to follow the local standards of lights per street length, and will be installing 2 or 3 street lamps. All landscaping will be left up to the respective buyers, falling in code with covenants we have yet to declare. The west 4.18 acres (of the existing 5.34 acres) will be divided into two lots where there will be two new SF homes. The current parcels are zoned R-1, Single Family Residential. The R-1 zoning provides for development density of 1 unit per acre, which is consistent with the sketch plan provided. Below is a comparison of the R-1 zoning code and the requested variance. Item: Requirement: Requested Deviation: Minimum Lot Width per R-1 150 Feet 30 feet for Lot 9 38 feet for Lot 8 This project will adhere to and match all of the following standards, with no deviation needed: • Development Density = 1 acre. (Standard met, no deviation needed.) • Minimum Lot Depth = 250 feet (Standard met, no deviation needed.) • Front Setback = 30 feet (Standard met, no deviation needed.) • Side Yard Setback = 10 feet (Standard met, no deviation needed.) • Rear Yard Setback = 50 feet (Standard met, no deviation needed.) • Wetland Setback = 30 feet (Standard met, no deviation needed.) What applications do you expect to apply for? • Would there be a need to rezone? If yes, then we would do so. This project adjoins 121st Street North, which is one of the few unimproved streets in this neighborhood. It is understood that this street will need to be improved, along with the installation of utilities, in order to develop our parcel. There are existing homes that front and utilize 121st Street. In communicating with these and adjacent neighbors to our property, we have found several have interest in accessing city sewer and/or water as well as having 121st Street paved. It is understood that this improvement project may also provide benefit to said neighboring homes in these ways. We are hoping to collaborate with the City of Hugo to better understand the process and cost sharing/ assessment opportunities that may be associated with this street improvement project. • DRAINAGE CONCERNS FROM NORTHERLY NEIGHBORS: It is understood that there are drainage concerns from the neighboring homes to the north. The proposed layout does lend itself to a pond design on the north end of the project, and it is anticipated that review of the site topography and elevations for the northerly neighboring homes would be taken into consideration with the civil design. Conclusion: Thank you for your assistance and review of our proposed subdivision. We hope this project will be a welcomed contribution to the City of Hugo and surrounding neighborhoods by adding quality housing and preserving the natural character of the site. Feel free to inquire or reach out to our team if you have any additional questions or needs for the review process.

Sec. 90-96. – Large Lot Single-Family Residential District (R-1). 12165 Everton Ave. N. Hugo, MN PID 31 -031-21-43-0001 On behalf of Dan May and the Drengsons, we are asking for a variance from the minimum lot width requirement as stated in the R-1 Large Lot Single-Family Residential code. The current resident owner of the 12165 Everton Ave 5.34 acre property has chosen to subdivide his property into two separate parcels, selling 4.18 acres and retaining his home on 1.16 acre. As the buyers, we are seeking to split the 4.18 acres into two 2+ acre lots. However, due to the unique shape and position of the property, and the current owner’s desire to retain his home on the acre which fronts Everton Ave, in purchasing the 4.18 acres, we are left with two access points. One point of entry is on the northern boundary where the lot adjoins Everton Ave. with a frontage of 30ft. The second is the southern point of entry where the lot adjoins 121st with a proposed frontage of 38ft. Requirement Requested Deviation Minimum Lot Width at Front Setback Line 150ft Lot 9: 30ft Lot 8: 38ft We recognize the deviations from the standard are significant, however, considering the unique position and accessibility, we have come to find this is the most logical and certainly the most nature-preserving method of access to these lots. In being granted this variation, we aim to maintain the quiet nature of the area and placing only two large parcels on the 4.18 acres. We have, thus far, found this to be agreeable to our adjoining neighbors. It should be noted that there are existing parcels which adjoin our project and do not meet the 150 foot lot width requirement. As a result, we feel this request is not a large departure from what exists within the neighborhood today. Thank you all very much for your time and consideration of our project.

Hello Emily Can you print us the recent packet concerning the latest Drengson Development plan? I can come and pick it up at city hall. Is there a link to it on the city website? I could not find it. Hello Rachel and Emily After reviewing the grading plan, it would appear that the company that developed this had no consideration for leaving any trees on the property. This is quite disturbing, as well as showing walk- out homes on land that already has a high water table and drainage issues, thereby creating the need to make grading elevations that much more extreme. One of our personal big concerns is the grading they plan to do close to/on the property line. We have several trees we have planted over the years and nurtured in the goal of maintaining privacy and a buffer zone. If those tree roots become damaged it will compromise the trees or kill them. My understanding is that if a neighbor’s excavation practices kill your trees, they are responsible for compensating you for the damage/loss. I don’t really want this to go there. There was an extensive tree survey done. Can you tell me what the purpose of this is if the trees will likely be all removed? Is there a formula that the developer has to follow to put in new trees for the amount that was removed? Are there limitations on the dwellings that can be built? Limitations on height? We are concerned about three story homes essentially built on grade towering over the landscape, spoiling the rural feel of the neighborhood. There are a number of us neighbors who have been communicating and meeting and we have many different concerns with the grading plan. We will all be at the planning meeting next week, so please make allowance for us to speak. Please tell me what form of media we can bring to share. I assume we can bring handouts. Is there also a possibility for us to bring media (power point or whatever) on a flash drive to share? Please let me know so we can prepare. Looking forward to your response.

Also, with grading changes that close to our property line it will likely impact the survival of our trees, that we have planted and nurtured to keep a natural look to the area and a buffer zone.

Tom Thomas and Teresa Sorensen July 6, 2021 5049 124th St Ct N White Bear Lake, MN 55110 Gromit618@aol.com 651-261-5997 Good afternoon Council Member Petryk, My name is Teresa Sorensen. I live with my husband Tom at 5049 124th St Ct N. We have resided at our Hugo home since 1987, when we were drawn here by the rural setting and the spacious one acre lots. We recently received notice of a planning commission hearing on July 8th on the proposed development adjacent to our south property line named the Acres of Bald Eagle and we would like to share some concerns: First and foremost, Tom and I are frustrated with the fact that we are unable to voice our concerns about the project to the city staff or to the developer. The city staff has directed us to appeal to the developer and the developer refuses to speak with us about the project. When we moved into our home, the previous owner of the proposed development land had planted a buffer of white pine along the property line and left the land in a natural setting. Tom and I enhanced the buffer by planting many trees on our property boarder as well as throughout our entire yard. Over the years, and after much expense and hard work, we have managed to turn a former corn field into a treed lot offering us a lovely private setting. We do not want this development to endanger the buffer we have worked so hard to achieve. Initially the developer stated they were intending to live in the development and wished to preserve as much of the natural environment as possible. Given the hard work we have done to preserve the natural rural setting, we were very happy to hear that. However, the developers must have had a change of heart as the grading plan they are proposing will eliminate most all of the trees on the property (as shown on the Tree Inventory and Removal Map, including 40 year old white pines the previous owner planted) as well as compromising the trees on the neighboring properties. To protect the trees on our property and the beautiful pines and oaks along the property lines, we would like the developer to be directed to leave a wider buffer along the north and east property lines of the development than what is shown on the current grading plan and the Tree Inventory and Removal Map. This would be of mutual benefit to the existing home owners and new home owners and is in line with a recommendation from the city engineers. Another one of our concerns is the style of houses in the proposal: Thirty five foot high walk-outs. It seems to us that the intense grading and tree removal is due to the developer’s desire to offer walk-out lots. This large style of home is not in keeping with the surrounding homes and will tower over neighboring ramblers and split entry homes. Please urge the developer to reconsider the grading plan to open up the opportunity to build ramblers and single story homes rather than the current plan designed specifically for looming two plus story homes. Finally, the proposed drainage method shown in the grading plan includes a moat ditch system, which will drain and funnel into a “pond” located along the development’s north property line within sight of our home. This shallow pond will only become a sludge pit over time; an eyesore and mosquito breeding ground. As our city council representative, we ask that you please share this letter with the full council, the mayor and planning commission members. In conclusion, we respectfully request that the members of the Planning Commission let the neighboring property owner’s voices be heard at the upcoming hearing on Thursday. Please table approval of the Acres of Bald Eagle development to give the developer an opportunity to consider a less disruptive development plan, including wider buffers along the adjoining property borders, a less intense grading plan allowing for single story or story and a half homes rather than thirty-five foot tall two plus story homes, and a better solution for the drainage pond. See comments below regarding the grading plan and tree removal. Thank you, Trese and Tom Sorensen This intense grading and dramatic elevation change will compromise the existing trees on the neighboring properties to the north. There needs to be a wide buffer zone along the development’s north border, with no disturbance of the existing grade staying well away from the existing tree driplines. Sorensen letter - Acres of Bald Eagle Development - 070621.pdf Existing trees in this area on the north end of the development should remain for a buffer zone. From:Barb Proulx To:Becky Petryk Cc:Emily Weber Subject:Acres of Bald Eagle Date:Wednesday, June 30, 2021 2:59:29 PM Caution: This email originated outside our organization; please use caution. Good afternoon Council Member Petryk, It is my understanding that the City Council is scheduled to approve the new development named the Acres of Bald Eagle at their meeting on July 19. It is also my understanding that the Planning Commission will be taking public comment on this at the July 8 public hearing. If you haven't already, I would encourage you to walk the property, better yet - walk my property so you can see the impact. I would like to share, and sincerely hope that you pass this on to the full council, mayor and commission, my thoughts pertaining to this proposed development. I have had the pure enjoyment and satisfaction of living and raising our kids on my one acre parcel in Lake Air Estates, Block 1, Lot 19 for the last 37 years. When we purchased the property, one acre was the smallest lot you could purchase in Hugo. My how times have changed! Our large lot residential neighborhood is unique. We have neighbors, yet we have space that provides for privacy. Our property is directly adjacent to the proposed development. I have a few concerns that I would like to share. Currently the property proposed for development is an urban forest. We enjoy the deer, turkey, fox, pheasant, bald eagles, hawks and owls...just to name a few of habitants of this property. I am hoping that the developer will take this to heart when the excavators show up to scrape the land. Will there be a wooded buffer zone around this development? I know a tree survey was done. What does that mean? I would encourage the developer to keep most of the trees around this property. New developments that have been going up all seem to have trees planted around the property. This is a mutual benefit to both the current and new property owners. I am concerned that the drainage and storm runoff proposed on the plat map is not the best use of the way the property is naturally formed. The property currently has a low wetland. This appears to be eliminated on the plat map and a moat like ditch system will replace it and put it in a "pond" directly next to my property. I am wondering why they would do the extra work? Is it because they will take the dirt to build up the home sites so they can put the tall towering two story walkout homes as proposed? When we purchased our lot, those many years ago we were given a list of covenants. July 6, 2021 City of Hugo Community Development Board of Zoning and Planning Commission Members Mayor and City Council Members We have reviewed the PRELIMANARY PLAT map of DRENGSON/MAY ENTERPRISES LLC for the proposed development, ACRES OF BALD EAGLE at 4990 121st STREET. We live at 12116 FALCON AVE N. (corner of 121st Street and Falcon Ave. N.) Our property runs along a good portion of the eastern border of the proposed development. Narrative prepared by developers on May 28, 2021, at the conclusion wrote “We hope this project will be a welcomed contribution to the City of Hugo and surrounding neighborhoods by adding quality housing and preserving the natural character of the site.” Review of the site grading of the property shows EXTREME RESHAPING of the property. Current design is for a moat that requires removal of soils to a depth of up to eleven feet below current soil elevations. This counter intuitive design from a water flow perspective diverts all the runoff from the new development entirely to the east towards three residential properties discharging into the new perimeter moat. This water must then continue to flow north and then west before allowing it to spill over the weir. This water must flow the entire perimeter of the property. The elevation for the bottom of the moat is set for 934 feet which is the same elevation as the wetlands to the west. However, the weir on the west end controls the moat water level at the 935.24 feet elevation, thereby creating a holding pond approximately 1.24 feet deep. Additionally, as the soil boring from the east side has indicated there are water bearing samples at approximately the bottom of the moat level (933 to 934 feet). With the added 1.24 feet of water in the moat and continually being refreshed with the entire runoff, the resulting added head/water pressure will potentially lead to significant risk of raising the water level near or above the basement floor levels of these properties to the east and a significant risk of contaminating the water table. Containment of runoff can bring additional issues that have negative effects on properties and our wellbeing! i.e., stagnant water increasing mosquito breeding, unmaintained ditches, basins, and swales with saturated soils bringing blight to the area, child safety issues (drowning). This extreme reshaping of the land surface will not resemble any of the existing characteristics of the property or the neighboring properties. It will in fact destroy most if not all the existing trees on the property. TREE INVENTORY LIST counts 9,071 trees. CAREFUL GRADING on the eastern border MUST BE MET as not to disturb the root system of FIVE mature oaks on our property. The preliminary plat map raises the soil levels at the proposed unit locations as much as four feet above current soil levels. The plat map shows these elevations to create walk out lots. With soil height and most likely the construction of two-story homes we will be looking at intrusive thirty-five-to-forty- foot roof tops which will tower over the existing neighborhood of modest homes. With proposal of improvements for 121st Street there may be issues with drainage on the northside intersection of 121st and Falcon Avenue North. There has been a history of pooled water on the northside of this intersection. There is no culvert or drain for the water to flow. Additionally, water flows down our existing driveway on 121st Street N. as this gravel road as elevated over the past years. We also want the developers and the City of Hugo Engineering staff to be informed of the high-water table and water drainage issues in and around the properties of the proposed development. Respectfully submitted, Tom and Denise Sames 12116 Falcon Avenue N. White Bear Lake, MN 55110 Covenants that make and keep a great neighborhood - a great neighborhood. Where are the covenants for this development? What is okay? What's not okay? What will be in my sightline? They have the opportunity to create a neighborhood that would fit in with the existing neighborhoods. In my opinion, the two story walkout homes are not feasible here. I can only guess that with all of the work that has taken place so far, and all of the work to be done, these lots will be expensive. The young families that want the two story towers will not be able to afford to buy the lot and build their home. Older folks, empty nesters, will be able to afford to do this however, they do not want a big house with several sets of stairs to climb. Perhaps that is why the developers themselves are building slab on grade one story homes. I would like to see the new homes of this "executive" neighborhood be along the same lines as the neighborhood that went in a few years ago on Everton. This fits with the existing, established neighborhood. The property that the Dregson May folks have purchased is a rare gem. They will love it here! I would advise them to be careful, very, very, careful when they cut the facets of the gem so in the end it is a jewel and not just a stone.

The proposed term of the abatement will be for up to twenty (20) years in an amount not to exceed $9,000,000. The abatement will apply to the City's share of the property taxes derived from the property described by tax parcel identification number included in the adopting resolution (as attached). Tax abatement is a tool that communities use for financing of improvements to private property, for financing or providing public infrastructure, acquiring or constructing public facilities (including parks and recreation and community centers) and for phasing in property tax increase/equalization of property. The City is proposing to use the abatement for construction of public facilities, namely park and related improvements. The tax abatement is adopted by resolution by the City Council following a public hearing that was noticed more than 10 and less than 30 days prior. The properties included within the abatement have been identified as those that may ‘benefit’ from the improvements and will continue to pay taxes like all other properties within the City. The City will use its share of property taxes on the abatement properties for repayment of debt service on the bonds issued to finance the park and related improvements. Prior to approving a tax abatement, the City makes a finding that it expects benefits of the proposed abatement to at least equal the costs to the political subdivision of the proposed abatement and doing so is in the public interest because it will: • increase or preserve tax base • provide employment opportunities in the political subdivision • provide or help acquire or construct public facilities • help redevelop or renew blighted areas • help provide access to services for residents of the political subdivision • finance or provide public infrastructure Thank you for the opportunity to be of assistance to the City of Hugo.

The following members were present: and the following were absent: Member ______________________ introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLUTION NO. _________ RESOLUTION APPROVING PROPERTY TAX ABATEMENTS BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Hugo, Minnesota (the "City"), as follows: WHEREAS, the City proposes to approve tax abatements in connection with public improvements to the Lions Park and related public improvements in the City (the "Project"). The City proposes to use the abatement for the purposes provided for in the Abatement Law (as hereinafter defined), including the Project. The proposed term of the abatement will be for up to twenty (20) years in an amount not to exceed $9,000,000. The abatement will apply to the City's share of the property taxes (the "Abatement") derived from the property described by tax parcel identification numbers on the attached “Exhibit A” (the “Property”) located in the City and in Washington County; and WHEREAS, the City has requested, in writing, that Independent School District No. 624 (the “White Bear Lake Area School District”) grant an abatement for the Project. The White Bear Lake Area School District has declined, in writing, to grant an abatement and therefore the City has the authority to grant an abatement for up to 20 years; and WHEREAS, on the date hereof, the Council held a public hearing on the question of the Abatement, and said hearing was preceded by at least 10 days but not more than 30 days prior published notice thereof; and WHEREAS, the City Council proposes to issue its General Obligation Tax Abatement Bonds, Series 2021A (the "Bonds") in an amount not to exceed $9,000,000 to finance the Project; and the Abatement will be pledged to the payments of the Bonds; and 13510929v1 2 WHEREAS, the Abatement is authorized under Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.1812 through 469.1815, as amended (the "Abatement Law"). NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Hugo, Minnesota, as follows: 1. Findings for the Abatement. The City Council hereby makes the following findings: (a) The Council expects the benefits to the City of the Abatement to at least equal or exceed the costs to the City thereof. (b) Granting the Abatement is in the public interest because it will: (i) provide or help acquire or construct public facilities; (ii) help provide access to services for residents of the political subdivision; and (iii) finance or provide public infrastructure. (c) The Property is not and will not be located in a tax increment financing district during the Abatement period. (d) In any year, the total amount of property taxes abated by the City by this and other existing abatement resolutions, shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of net tax capacity of the City for the taxes payable year to which the abatement applies or $200,000, whichever is greater (the "Abatement Limit"). The City may grant other abatements permitted under the Abatement Law after the date of this resolution, provided that to the extent the total abatements in any year exceed the Abatement Limit the allocation of the Abatement limit to such other abatements is subordinate to the Abatement granted by this resolution. 2. Terms of Abatement. The Abatement is hereby approved. The terms of the Abatement are as follows: (a) The Abatement shall be for up to a twenty (20) year anticipated to commence for the taxes payable in the year 2022. The City reserves the right to modify the commencement date, but the abatement period shall not exceed twenty (20) years. (b) In accordance with Section 469.1815 of the Act, the City will add to its levy in each year during the term of the Abatement the total estimated amount of current year Abatement granted under this resolution. (c) The City will abate the City's share of property tax amount which the City receives from the Property, cumulatively not to exceed $9,000,000. 13510929v1 3 (d) The Abatement shall be subject to all the terms and limitations of the Abatement Law. (e) Because the City anticipates issuing General Obligation Tax Abatement Bonds, the Abatement may not be modified or changed. This resolution shall become effective immediately upon its passage and without publication.
