No Council action was required. 10. CITIZENS FORUM TO ADDRESS THE COUNCIL ON MATTERS NOT ON AGENDA The resident at 4307 Tyler Street stated her son had been playing street hockey in front of her home. He was told by a Columbia Heights Police Officer to not continue playing hockey in the street. She suggested there is no state nor local law which prohibits playing hockey in the street. She also felt the officer had frightened her son and that an apology would be appropriate. The City Attorney stated that the State gives municipalities and police departments the authority to monitor activity in streets and rights-of-way. This is under the purview of public health, safety and welfare and this authority does not have to specifically address this behavior. It is viewed as "child endangerment" if this activity is condoned or allowed to continue. Discussion followed regarding usage of parks for skateboarding. The resident stated her son is too afraid to play in the street and she felt this was regrettable. She was advised that he can skateboard in the same area as bicycles are allowed but playing ball or hockey in the street are prohibited activities. Councilmembers Jolly and Ruettimarm indicated a willingness to meet with concerned parents to discuss the issue. The Police Chief offered to meet with the child, his parents, and the officer mentioned, at a time and place convenient to the parent. REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING JULY 13, 1998 PAGE 25 Miscellaneous Items: Councilmember Jolly recognized the high level of commitment by the Public Works Department employees and the Fire Department Inspections Department for inspections being done throughout the summer.

However, if you lose your section 509(a)(1) status, a grantor or contributor may not rely on t/~s determination if he or she was in part responsible for, or was aware of, the act or failure to act, or the substantial or material change on the part of the organization that resulted in your los~ of such Status, or if he or she acquired knowledge that the Internal Revenue Service had given notice that you would no longer be classified as a section 509(a)(1) organization. If we have indicated in the heading of this letter that an addendum applies, the addendum enclosed is an integral part of this letter. Because this letter could help reso'lve any questions about your private foundation status, you should keep it in your permanent records.

Rebecca Loader~i I Following the June 8, 1998, City Council meeting, staff retained A.A.C. Roof Consulting, Inc. through RHA Architects, Inc.(see attached biography of consultant William Holman) to prepare specifications and perform other project duties as outlined in their proposal concerning replacement of the Library's roof. Specifications were prepared and reviewed by staff on June 17, advertisement for bids was published in the Focus of June 25, a pre- bid conference was held on June 29, and bids were opened on July 10. ~ITEM: LIBRARY ROOF PROJECT CITY MANAGER APPRqV~L ~ Based on the bids submitted (see attached bid tabulation form), the consultant (see attached memo from William Holman) and staff are recommending that Council accept the bid from Dalco Roofing for $86,237 (see attached description of scope of work). The bid does not include a price for disconnecting and connecting the mechanical systems on the rooftop, and estimates for this work range from $2,500 to $5,000 for which a separate purchase order will be made. The consultant's fee, based on the successful bid, will be $4,743. The motion passed at the June 8, 1998, City Council meeting stated "with funding sources to be determined." Because this project had not been budgeted, Council needs to allocate funds to be used to pay bills related to the project. An account number (411- 45500-0000) has been set up so that expenditures can be tracked. Possible sources of funding identified are: Fund Balance, General Buildings, Cable, or Liquor. Based on information from the Finance Director (see attached memo from William Elrite), staff is recommending use of the undesignated Fund Balance of the General Fund to cover the total cost of the project at $95,980. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to authorize the Mayor and City Manager to enter into an agreement with Dalco Roofing and Sheet Metal Inc. for the purchase and installation of a roof at the Library for the amount of $86,237 based on their low, formal written bid. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to appropriate and transfer $95,980 from the General Fund undesignated fund balance to the capital improvements general government building fund to cover expenditures related to re-roofing the City's Library; specifically, $86,237 for Dalco Roofing and Sheet Metal Inc., up to $5,000 for disconnecting and connecting the mechanical systems, and $4,743 for consulting fees to RHA Architects, Inc.

Hohnan CITY OF COLUMBIA HEIGHTS DATE: JULY 8, 1998 TO: FROM: BECKY LOADER LIBRARY DIRECTOR WILLLMVi ELRITt~ FINANCE DIRECTOR LIBRARY ROOF REPLACEMENT This memo is a follow-up to our previous conversation regarding funding for the library roof. Over the years fund balances in most funds have been exhausted for special projects and have not been replenished. The liquor, cable, and general building improvements funds all have reasonably small fund balances. Liquor has no available fund balance because of the amounts that have been put into the infrastructure fund and capital equipment replacement funds in recent years. As a result, I am recommend the General Fund fund balance be used for the library roof repairs. At the end of 1997 the General Fund had an undesignated fund balance of $541,915. Of this, $326,555 was used for the 1998 budget, leaving an undesignated fund balance in the General Fund of $215,360, from which the City Council may appropriate funds for the library roof project. The following motion may be used to accomplish this: RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to appropriate and transfer $ from the General Fund undesignated fund balance to the capital improvements general government buildings fund to cover expenditures related to re-roofing the City's library. This motion, in addition to the motion authorizing the Mayor and City Manager to enter into the ageement for the roof replacement, is all that should be needed. If you need any additional assistance from me, please let me know.

All ayes, motion carried. OLD BUSINESS ROOF REPAIR/MURZYN HALL Commission Member Peterson explained to members that he had looked at the Murzyn Hall roof with the roof consultant. The roof has had problems since its construction in 1939. The roof problems are not easily solved because we would need to build an entire new roof to alleviate all the roof problems. The roof itseff is in good shape. The steamer used by Public Works crews will help with ice dams. The heat cables also help with ice on the roof. Magnesium chloride can also be used without damaging the roof or any landscaping on the ground. The roof does have approximately $2,000 to $3,000 worth of damage in the front portion. Insurance may partially cover the repair costs. Commission Member Peterson advises that staff be more pro-active instead of reactive with respect to the roof problems. Members discussed the possibility of creating a staff position for a Building Maintenance Management person who would take care of the pro-active repairs on all City buildings. Members directed the Recreation Director and the Park & Recreation Commission Chairperson to draft a letter of recommendation to the City Council to make the necessary repairs to the roof, f~e a claim in to the insurance company, include a letter from the roof consultant to document the roof problems, put all our buildings on a pro-active maintenance plan under the Public Works Department, and look at the possibility of creating a position for a Building Maintenance Management person who would take care of the pro-active repairs on all City buildings. COMPREHENSIVE PARK PLAN The Public Works Director/City Engineer requested that this item be discussed after the Park Survey Results are discussed. NEW BUSINESS MURZYN HALL DISHWASHER The Recreation Director advised members on the poor condition of the dishwasher. We cannot get parts for it anymore because it is obsolete. The lower unit is leaking. Members felt that purchasing a used dishwasher would be buying someone else's problems. Without a booster heater, a new dishwasher costs approximately $5,000. Members suggested that step-by-step instructions be posted for caterers who are using the dishwasher to make sure they are operating it properly. Members directed the Recreation Director to forward cost information for a new dishwasher to the next City Council work session. PAGE THREE : :: PARK & RECREATION COMMISSION MINUTES MEETING OF JUNE 24, 1998 CARPET IN THE MAIN HALL (PORCH AREA) OF MURZYN HALL The Recreation Director advised members that the carpet is tearing away from the area by the pillars. The carpet was installed in 1990 or 1991 at a cost of approximately $16 to $17 per square yard. Members felt that we should purchase some good commercial grade carpeting for this area and perhaps look at a carpet that has a pattern to help hide stains better. Members directed the Recreation Director to get a bid on carpet and some samples for the next meeting. PARK SURVEY RESULTS Members reviewed the Park Survey results. Most people indicated they would support a referendum for park improvements and a community center. The features they most dislike and/or seldom use are the tennis courts and horseshoe courts. The Recreation Director is meeting with an asphalt man who will make a recommendation on whether or not to repair our tennis courts COMPREHENSIVE PARK PLAN The Public Works Director/City Engineer indicated he would like to get a formal Comprehensive Park Plan to the City Council before year's end. The SRF consultants wilt help him to draft a plan for members to review. The Design Team did not give much input as to the parks. Members suggested giving the City Council a copy of the Park Survey results. The Council may then request that the Po/ice Department expand their neighborhood picnics to include McKenna, Prestemon, Ramsdell, and Ostrander Parks. REPORTS RECREATION DIRECTOR The Recreation Director reported that he has raised $3,000 in donations from community groups and businesses for fireworks. The City was donating $2,000, so the goat of $5,000 has been met. Members suggested that those who donated be thanked on cable TV. The Chamber-City softball game will take place on Saturday, June 27, 1998 at 3:00 p.m. at Huset Park. The first five Wild Wednesday Excursions have been filled with 90 children per trip, and children are enjoying the summer programs. The new puppet wagon is being used to give puppet shows at two parks per day on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. Staff would like to purchase some graphics to decorate the puppet wagon. Members suggested that staff ask Medtronics if they would let us put "Donated by Medtronics" on the trailer. PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR/CITY ENGINEER The Public Works Director/City Engineer reported that Huset Park neighbors will be consulted on the choice of new ptaygrouncl equipment. PAGE FOUR PARK & RECREATION COMMISSION MINUTES MEETING OF JUNE 24, 1998 MEMBERS Members discussed recognizing the contribution of Dick Petkoff, former Park & Recreation Commission Chairman, at the next meeting. Jo-Anne Student will order an engraved clock to be presented to him at the next meeting. ADJOURNMENT Motion by Peterson, second by Magnuson to adjourn. All ayes, motion carried.

Public Hearing Conditional Use Permit Case #9807-31 This case was withdrawn. Dr. Gary Good 3827 Central Avenue N.E. Columbia Heights, Mn. Bo Public Hearing Conditional Use Permit Case #9807-32 J & M investment Partnership RE: 3856 Quincy St. N.E. Columbia Heights, Mn. Mr. Hollman presented the request of Jeff Hage on behalf of J & M Investment Partnership for a Conditional Use Permit to allow an off-street parking lot in the R-3 Multiple Family Residential District at 3856 Quincy Street. He informed the Commission that Section 9.109(2)(k) of the Columbia Heights Zoning Ordinance permits off-street parking as a Conditional Use in the R-3 District adding that this property is currently a vacant parcel after a house on the property burned down in recent years. He stated that the proposed parking lot would serve 701 N.E. 39~ Ave. and 715 N.E. 39t~ Ave. which are across 39t~ Ave. and slightly to the west. Mr. Hollman informed the Commission that the surrounding property on the south and east is zoned R-3, Multiple Family Residential and is used residentially. The property to the north is zoned I, Industrial, and the area to the west is zoned 1-2, Heavy Industrial and is used for commercial/industrial purposes. THE CI3'Y OF COLUMBIA HE[GHTB DOES NOT OIBCRIMI~qATE ON THE BASIS OF D[SABiLI~ IN EMPLOYMEnt OR THE PROVISION O~ SERVICES EQUAL OPPOF~TUN[TY EMPLOYER PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING-MINUTES JULY 7,1998 PAGE2 He stated that Section 9.109(2)(k) allows off-street parking in the R-3 District when the proposed lot is located in any block or area which is zoned, used, or otherwise permitted for any non-residential use or uses and abuts on a lot or parcel which is in a "B" or "1" District and is in the same ownership or control as the land in the "B" or "1" District. Mr. Hollman addedthat the property to the west and also across 39~ Ave. is zoned industrially and is used as such stating that the subject property will be in the same ownership as the principal use which is across 39th Ave. and a short distance to the west. It was his opinion that the request is in compliance with the ordinance requirements. Mr. Hollman informed the Commission that other conditions in the Zoning Ordinance state that the subject parcel shall not be located between two abutting residential uses, and provided that such off-street parking is restricted to an area for a distance from the abutting edge of the "B" or "1" District equal to the combined widths of three contiguous platted lots or 150 feet, whichever is greater. He stated that the subject parcel is within 150 feet of the principal use which it will be serving and it is abutting residential only on the south side. It was his opinion that the proposal meets these provisions of the Ordinance. Mr. Hotlman stated the specific requirements for a parking tot are as follows: A fence, not over 6 feet high nor tess than 3.5 feet high, shall be erected along the property line abutting a residential district and shall be at least 50% opaque; A bumper curb of five to seven inches high, around the perimeter of parking area and a curb of no tess than 5 feet from a building that has parking around it; Driveways shall not exceed 6% and the parking lot shall be graded according to a drainage plan which has been approved by the City Engineer; 4. The maximum slope of any bank shall be 1:3 (1 being vertical and 3 being horizontal); 5. The parking lot will need to be striped and parking stalls are required to be 9' x 20' in size. He added that parking lots and driveways are required to be surfaced with a material to control dust and drainage. Mr. Hollman stated that the applicant proposes to pave the lot which will be in compliance. Mr. Holtman added that another requirement which is not listed above is that parking and loading areas are subject to required front yards. He stated that the front yard for the subject parcel is located adjacent to Quincy Street and the front yard setback in the R-3 District is 30 feet. He pointed out that the site plan indicates that the front 30 feet will not be used for parking and it will be separated by a curb and landscaping. The proposed layout of the parking spaces will create approximately a 30 foot drive aisle which is an adequate design for 90 degree parking. Mr. Hollman stated that one concern is that the parking spaces are shown as abutting the property line, and with this layout, problems could occur with vehicles bumping the required fence and hanging over into the right-of-way. PLANNING AND ZONING COMMI8810N JULY 7,1998 PAGE3 As a result, a condition is being recommended that a minimum two foot open space be maintained between the required bumper curb and the property line. He added that another concern is the potential impact a paved parking lot can have on surrounding property. Paving will increase the rate of water runoff. Water runoff will need to be directed into appropriate facilities and not onto adjacent property. He stated that the Public Works Department would need to review and approve drainage and grading plans. Mr. Hollman stated that all lighting of the parking lot will need to be shaded or diffused to reflect the light away from the adjoining property. Mr. Hollman informed the Commission that the City Comprehensive Plan designates this area for high density residential development. It was his opinion that the proposal does not impact the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Hollman stated that the positive aspects of the proposal would be that the parking lot would provide needed parking opportunities in the area, and, provided the site is adequately screened, the site can serve as a buffer between the industrial uses and nearby residential properties. Chairperson Szurek opened the public hearing. Joan Olson of 3837 Ouincy Street was present to ask if the property was to be rezoned as she was not in favor of the proposal. It was her opinion that it would devalue her property and would become an eyesore as it would not be maintained. Mordechai Kobany, one of the owners of Hage-Kobany Transmission of 701 N.E. 39~h Avenue, stated that this proposal is important for the future of the Industrial District for off-street parking as all the lots are small and do not allow room for improvement. This proposal is close by the businesses it will support adding that the owners will improve the corner by grading, hard surfacing and screening the site. Commissioner Szurek asked if lighting would be added for the tot. Mr. Hollman responded that the lot would not be used at night as the businesses are not open evenings. Chairperson Szurek closed the public hearing. MOTION by Ramsdell, seconded by Fowler, to recommend to the City Council the approval of the Conditional Use Permit to allow off-street parking in the R-3 District at 3858 Quincy Street, subject to the following conditions: Ownership of the property shall be transferred to the applicant; All required state and local codes will be met and in fult compliance; PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING.

Voice Vote: All Ayes. Motion carried. **THIS ITEM TO APPEAR ON THE JULY 13, 1998 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA. Public Hearing Variance Case #9807-33 William Paul Hatten 3723 Polk Street N.E. Columbia Heights, Mn. Mr. Hollman presented the request of William Hatten for a variance of one (1) foot from the required five (5) foot side yard setback to allow a 400 square foot addition onto an existing house at 3723 Polk Street. He explained that the existing house is currently four (4) feet off the north property line and approximately one (1) foot off the property line adjacent to the alley adding that it is considered legally non-conforming. Mr. Hollman informed the Commission that the surrounding property in all four directions is zoned R-2, Two Family Residential and is used for residential purposes. He stated that single family dwellings are a permitted use in the R-2, Two Family Residential District. Section 9.108(4) of the Zoning Ordinance requires the following minimum tot area, size, and setbacks for the principal structure: Minimum lot area shall be 6,500 square feet. The subject parcel is 7,392 square feet. · Minimum lot width shall be 60 feet. The subject parcel is 60 feet wide. · Minimum front yard setback shall be 25 feet. The existing house and proposed addition exceed this requirement. · Minimum side yard setback shall be five (5) feet. The existing house and proposed addition are four (4) feet off the side lot line which requires a variance. ,- Minimum rear yard setback shall be 30 feet. The existing house is slightly over one (1) foot from the rear lot line. PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION JULY 7, 1998 PAGE 5 Mr. Hollman informed the Commission that Section 9.104(3)(h) states that normal maintenance of a building or other structure containing or related to a non-conforming use is permitted, including necessary non-structural repairs and incidental alterations which do not extend or intensify the non-conforming use. He added that the Commission that the proposed addition will extend the nonconformity along the side yard which is not allowed. Mr. Hollman informed the Commission that another concern is that the cost of the proposed addition exceeds 50% of the fair market value of the house. Section 9.104(3)(e) states that whenever a nonconforming building or structure shall have been damaged by fire, flood, or act of God, it may be reconstructed and used as before, unless the damage to the building is 50% or more of its fair market value.- Because of this restriction, it may not be in the City's best interest to allow this investment into the property. Should the variance be granted and the addition be built and if the building incurs future damage exceeding 50% of the fair market value, the building would not be allowed to be reconstructed. The property owner could come back to the City claiming that the investment into the property should not have been allowed. Mr. Hollman stated that the existing house was built in 1924 and is 640 square feet which does not meet minimum floor area requirements of 1,020 square feet. The addition would improve the property and make the house 1,040 square feet which would exceed the floor area requirements. Mr. Hotlman reminded the Commission that Section 9.105(3)(d) of the Zoning Ordinane states the following: "In recommending a variance, it shall be found that by reason of narrowness, shallowness, or shape of lot or where by reason of exceptional topography, soil conditions, tree number or location or water conditions the owner of such lot would have an undue hardship in using his lot in a manner customary and legally permissible within the rules of the zoning district." He added that in order for a variance to be granted, hardship needs to be established stating that a hardship has not been demonstrated in this case. Council Representative Peterson asked what the lot size was and if there was a garage. Mr. Hollman responded that the lot is 60 feet in width and that no garage existed. Peterson asked the owner if there were plans included for the provision of a garage. Mr. Hatten responded in the negative. Mr. Peterson expressed concern that a garage was not proposed. Commissioner Ramsdel~ asked if the addition was setback five feet to meet current setback requirements, would the proposal then be acceptable. Planner Holllman responded that there would still be an issue as the addition would be intensifying an existing non-conforming use. Discussion followed regarding a hardship for the property. Peterson read the hardship definition to the audience and explained what was necessary for the Planning and Zoning Commission in order to approve or recommend approval of a variance to the City Council. Mr. Hatten stated that his house currently is four (4) feet from the side property line and about three (3) feet form the alley. He felt that the "shallowness" of the lot would fit the definition of the hardship requirement. Peterson PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION JULY 7, 1998 PAGE 6 stated that all lots in his area are similar in depth and width and that shallowness would be considered if the tot was unusual to the area in depth. Commissioner Szurek stated to Mr. Hatten that "it's not that we don't want you to improve your house, it's that a hardship must be identified even to intensify the existing building". Mr. Hatten asked Mr. Hollman to explain "grandfathered in" which he mentioned during earlier discussion. Mr. Hollman explained the phrase "grandfathered in" means that when the Zoning Ordinance was adopted, all existing structures that would not meet the new requirements would be allowed to exist as is by being "grandfathered in". Any improvements for upkeep or maintenance would be allowed, however, additions to the non- conforming structure would not be allowed without the hardship requirement as an addition would intensify the non- conformity of the structure. MOTION by Ramsdell, seconded by Fowler, to deny the variance application for a 400 square foot house addition at 3723 Polk Street because hardship has not been established and the addition would extend an existing nonconforming use. Voice Vote: All Ayes. Motion carried. Council Representative Peterson informed Mr. Hatten that he could file an appeal to the City Manager's office to have his request heard by the City Council. Public Hearing Variance Case #9807-34 Lesa Murlowski 4015 Stinson Blvd. Columbia Heights, Mn. Mr. Hollman presented the request of Lesa Murlowski for two (2) variances to Section 9.104(5) of the Columbia Heights Zoning Ordinance. He explained that the proposal is to demolish the existing home at 4015 Stinson Boulevard and build a new single family dwelling with a two level attached garage while leaving the remaining structures of the property intact. He added that 4015 Stinson Boulevard is located in the R-l, Single Family Residential Zoning District. Mr. Hollman stated that the total square footage of all existing and proposed accessory structures on the lot is 3,072 square feet which requires a variance of 2,072 square feet under Section 9.104(5)(3) which requires that no combination of accessory structures can exceed 1,000 square feet. The proposed new attached private garage will be in addition to the existing detached private garage. Mr. Hollman indicated that a variance will be required for one (1) additional private garage under .Section 9.104(5)(4) which states that within any "R-1" single family residential zoning district, private garages are limited in number to only one (1)garage. PLANNING AND ZONING JULY 7,1998 PAGE 7 Mr. Hollman informed the Commission that there is a guest house on the property that has been the subject of concern and complaints in past years. He noted that in 1980 a letter was written by the City Planner to the Mayor addressing the cabin. In summary, that letter stated that the cabin was grand-fathered in as it was allowed under the former code, and as long as compensation was not being paid by individuals living in the cabin the use could remain. The letter concluded that because the cabin has existed for many years and is not a detriment to the City's land use zoning laws, there was no rationale to pursue the matter further. He further noted that the cabin contains a living room, kitchen, one bedroom, and one three fixture bathroom. The original cabin was built in 1918 and was 336 square feet. In 1969 the City Council approved a permit to remodel and construct a 240 square foot addition onto the guest cabin. This cabin is considered an accessory structure and is included in the calculation for total square footage of all accessory structures. Mr. Hollman stated that the surrounding property in all four directions is zoned R-l, Single Family Residential. Silver Lake abuts the subject parcel on the north end while the property on the east, west, and south is used for residential purposes. He directed the Commissioners attention to the attached letters of support from the adjacent property owners on the east and west. Mr. Hollman stated that the proposed new construction meets all requirements of the Zoning Ordinance with the exception of the accessory structure issues identified above. Setbacks, floor area requirements, and lot coverage requirements are all being met. He informed the Commission that currently, the property has the following accessory structures: one 462 square foot garage (21' x 22') with an attached 154 square foot shed (7' x 22'); and, a 576 square foot guest cabin. The proposal indicates that a two-level attached garage will be constructed, totaling 1,880 square feet (940 square feet per level). The combination of all existing and proposed accessory structures is 3,072 square feet. The total square footage allowed of all accessory structures including attached garages is 1,000 square feet. This requires a variance of 2,072 square feet. Aisc, only one (1) private garage is allowed in the R-1 zoning district, but the proposal indicates that the existing garage will remain and a new garage will be constructed. This will also require a variance of one additional private garage. Mr. Hollman informed the Commission that the husband of the applicant has stated that they would be willing to remove the driveway to the existing garage and use that building only for the storage of boats, dock, etc. If this were accomplished, the building would no longer be considered a garage, but rather an accessory storage building. This would alleviate the need for the variance to allow two (2) private garages in the R.t zoning district. However, Mr. Hollman stated that the total square footage of all accessory structures would still be an issue. He reminded the Commission that Section 9.105(3)(d) of the Zoning Ordinance states that "In recommending a variance, it shall be found that by reason of narrowness, shallowness, or shape of lot or where by reason of exceptional topography, soil conditions, tree number or location or water conditions the owner of such lot would have an undue hardship in using his lot in a manner customary and legally permissible within the rules of the zoning district." He reiterated that in order for a variance to be granted, hardship needs to be established. Mr. Hollman PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION JULY 7, 1998 PAGE 8 stated that based on the strict interpretation of the definition, staff has not been able to determine a hardship. Discussion was held regarding the finding of a hardship to approve the variance requests as a hardship was not readily evident. Discussion also included the calculation of lot coverage. John Stenglein was present representing Belair Builders and spoke on behalf of the owner, Mike Murlowski. He stated that they would vacate the driveway to the detached garage and turn the garage into a storage facility for boats, etc. He questioned the use of the attached garage in calculating the lot coverage as required by the Zoning Ordinance stating that many cities do not include the attached garage. It was his opinion that it was a contradiction of terms to consider an attached garage as a separate structure and an accessory use as the attached garage and house are all one footing. He informed the Commission that the owner would be using the two level garage for the storage his private vehicle and two classic cars. Mr. Stenglein further stated that the new house is proposed with the two level attached garage due to the topography of the lot. Mike Murlowski, owner of the property in question, stated that he has the support of the property owners on each side of his property to not remove any of the trees or shrubbery and the large number of perennials around the guest cabin and detached garage. Chairperson Szurek opened the public hearing. Bruce Nedegaard of 4025 Stinson Boulevard spoke in favor of the variance requests stating that a large number of trees would be lost by Mr. Murlowski as well as himself if the detached garage was required to be removed. He also stated that neighboring cities do not consider an attached garage as an accessory structure. He felt that the extent and cost the Murlowski's are willing to put into this project would be a benefit to the area. Norm Miskowic of 4003 Stinson Boulevard was present to state that he was in favor of the proposed project adding that the existing yard is beautiful but the proposed new construction would be even more beautiful. The public hearing was closed as no one else was present to speak regarding this case. I~IOTIOI~ by Ramsdell, seconded by Fowler, to recommend to the City Council the approval of the variance requests for 4014 Stinson Boulevard due to a hardship of the topography of the lot and the loss of trees and shrubbery if the garage would be removed including those planted on the adjacent lot.

Eo Public Hearing Variance Case//9807-35 Larry MacDonald RE: 4757 Central Avenue Columbia Heights, Mn. PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION ~Er~LIL~, ~E.E.T~,~G - ~NJJTrr. s JULY 7, 1998 PAGE 9 Mr. Hollman presented the request of Larry MacDonald for three variances to Section 9.116 of the Zoning Ordinance to allow parking in the front yard in the RB, Retail Business District at 4757 Central Avenue NE. which is the future location for a Subway/TCBY Restaurant and other future tenants unknown at this time. He explained that Section 9.116 of the Zoning Ordinance requires that parking areas meet front yard setback requirement which is 15 feet in the RB District. Section 9.116(2)(d) requires that parking and loading areas are subject to required front yards according to the district in which such parking is located. The property at 4757 Central Avenue is zoned RB, Retail Business which has a front yard setback of 15 feet. The newly modified site plan indicates ten (10) existing parking spaces in the front yard, rather than the twelve spaces originally shown, which will require a variance. Section 9.116(3)(e) requires that a curb of five to seven inches high be required along the front yard setback line, and grass or planting shall occupy the space between the right-of-way line and curb. A variance will be needed to keep the 10 parking spaces in the front yard rather than the required curb and landscaping. Section 9.116(2)(h) requires that parking spaces shall not be less than nine (9) feet wide and twenty (20) feet in length. The proposal is to maintain 10 existing parking spaces that are nine (9) feet wide and 15 feet in length. A variance of five (5) feet is needed to keep these spaces 15 feet in length rather than the required 20 feet. Mr. Hollman informed the Commission that one of the conditions of the site plan approval in June under Case # 9806-26 was that the 10 parking spaces along the western edge of the property be brought into compliance through removal and relocation, or an application for variances would need to be made. The applicant has determined that applying for the variances is the best option. Mr. Hollman stated that the required dimensions of a parking space, under the Zoning Ordinance, are 9' x 20'. There are t 0 spaces with 9' x 15' dimensions located along the western property line. If the dimensions are extended to meet the 9' x 20' requirement an 18' drive aisle will be created which is narrow for 90 degree parking design. Typically, a 22 or 24 foot aisle is desired. He added that the Zoning Ordinance does not regulate the width of drive aisles. Mr. Hollman informed the Commission that one alternative that was suggested is the potential to remove and relocate those parking spaces on the site. The ten parking spaces are not needed for this proposal, but will more than likely be needed for future tenants in the remaining tenant spaces. The applicant has determined that the parking will be needed, not only to serve future tenants, but also to attract potential tenants. Another requirement is that a curb of 5-7 inches high is required along the front yard setback line, and grass or plantings shall occupy the space between the right-of-way line and curb. Should the variance to allow parking in the front yard be granted, this requirement will also need a variance. ?IANNIN8 AND ZONING COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING-MINUTES JULY 7,1998 PAGEIO Mr. Hollman stated that this is the parking layout which was used by previous tenants in the building and it appears that traffic circulation on the lot flowed without any significant problems. However, the Subway/TCBY has a higher turnover of vehicles than the previous restaurants at this site which creates concerns regarding the narrow drive aisle between parking spaces. Mr. Hollman reminded the Commissioners of Section 9.105(3)(d) which states that "in recommending a variance, it shall be found that by reason of narrowness, shallowness, or shape of lot or where by reason of exceptional topography, soil conditions, tree number or location or water conditions the owner of such lot would have an undue hardship in using his lot in a manner customary and legally permissible within the rules of the zoning district." He reiterated that in order for a variance to be granted, a hardship as described needs to be established. It was Mr. Hollman's opinion that it would appear that a hardship does exist due to the shape of the lot and the existing built nature of the property which prevents a desirable parking layout in this particular area of the lot adding that the topography also restricts the flow of traffic. He stated that there is not room between the existing building and the retaining wall on the south side of the property to allow traffic to circulate around the building. Because of the location of the existing building on the lot in relation to the front property line there is not enough room to have two areas for 90 degree parking at the required 9' x 20' dimensions and still maintain a safe drive aisle. Mr. Hollman directed the Commissioners attention to the recommendation of the City Planner for approval of the three variance requests to allow the 10 parking spaces to remain in the front yard as this is an existing condition and appears to have functioned adequately in the past. He added that the Community Development Director recommends denial of the three variance requests because allowing the 10 substandard parking spaces to remain will perpetuate an undesirable and potentially unsafe design. If the parking spaces were expanded to the required 9' x 20' dimensions, there would not be an adequate access aisle and internal traffic circulation would be restricted. He added that the City Attorney also is concerned as a precedent would be set for similar cases up and down Central Avenue. The Attorney also added that a variance on future parking needs would not be necessary at this time as they would be speculative as the future tenants and their parking needs are undetermined at this time. Mr. Hollman also stated that the City Attorney felt that a variance for the ten front parking spaces would not be required for the Subway/TCBY Restaurant as the other parking as shown on the site plan will suffice. Council Representative Peterson did not feel a precedent would be set and stated he would be in favor of a considering a variance if another owner of existing commercial property along Central Avenue has non-conforming parking space sizes that has been sufficient in the past or close enough to the required size. He stated that any new structures proposed would be required to comply with the Zoning requirements. Chairperson Szurek opened the public hearing. Larry MacDonald, owner of the property in question, stated that the building was 32 years old and built to different standards and under a different set of zoning laws. It is not his option to rebuild the entire building. He felt that he PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING. MINUTES JULY 7, 1998 PAGE 11 would need the front parking so as not to limit his pool of prospective tenants for the two other proposed tenant spaces. If the front parking is eliminatei~, he felt the type of tenants he would have would be limited. He stated that the handicap parking and van accessible parking spaces eat up about four regular parking spaces. Ken Welle of 4801 Central Avenue was present to state that the front parking spaces should be allowed to remain as is because, if eliminated, patrons would overflow into his lot and park in the front spaces for his business despite the parking in the rear. He sited his experiences with the customers of the BW-3 Restaurant to the north. The public hearing was closed as no one efse was present to speak regarding this case: Motion by Fowler, seconded by Ramsdell, to recommend to the City Council the approval of the variance of 10 parking spaces to allow the existing parking spaces to remain as is in the front yard at 4757 Central Avenue rather than the required curb and landscaping due to the hardship of the shape of the lot and topography of the lot. Voice Vote: All Ayes. Motion carried. Motion by Fowler, seconded by Ramsdell, to recommend to the City Council the approval of the variance of five (5) feet to maintain the ten ( 1 O) existing parking spaces that are nine (9) feet wide and 15 feet in length because shape of the lot and topography create a hardship.

Fo Public Hearing Conditional Use Permit/Site Plan Case #9807-36 Minnesota Pizza Company RE: 5098 Central Avenue Columbia Heights, Mn. Mr. Hollman presented the request of Kyle Wareing representing Minnesota Pizza Company for site plan approval and a Conditional Use Permit to open a Papa John's Pizza prepared food delivery establishment in the former Athenian Gyro's Restaurant at 5098 Central Avenue N.E. According to the written summary submitted with the application, this restaurant will only be used for delivery and carry-out, and will not include any customer dine-in seating. The proposed general hours of operation are between 11:00 AM and 11:00 PM Sunday through Thursday, and between 11:00 AM and 1:00 AM on Friday and Saturday. Mr. Hollman informed the Commission that Case #9506-18 was the most recent history on the site occurring in June of 1995 and was a request for a Conditional Use Permit for the operation of a delitsandwich restaurant which was approved. He added that the surrounding property in all four directions is zoned RB, Retail Business. The surrounding property to the north, south, and east is used commercially while the property to the west is a nonconforming residential use. It was his opinion that the re-use of this building would enhance the character of the surrounding property. PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION P, EGULAR MEET[I',/G - M{{',,tUTES JULY 7, 1998 PAGE 12 Mr. Hollman stated that Section 9.113(2) of the Zoning Ordinance requires a Conditional Use Permit when the proposed use contains a restaurant, cafe, tea room, bar, prepared food outlets subject to Section 9.116(15) and Prepared Food Delivery Establishments as such establishments are defined in Section 9.103(63). He explained that a prepared food delivery establishment is an operation where food is prepared for sale and consumption, and no food or beverage can be consumed by customers upon the premises. Mr. Hollman informed the Commission that the minimum Yard and Density Requirements are as follows: 1. Lot Width shall be at least 50 feet. The subject parcel is 130 f~et wide; 2. Lot Area shall be at least 6,000 square feet. The subject parcel is 17,550 square feet; 3. The Front Yard Setback shall be 15 feet. The existing structure exceeds this requirement; 4. There shall be at least one 10 foot side yard, the other side yard can be zero feet. The western side yard on the property is about 25 feet; 5. The Rear Yard Setback shall be 10 feet. The existing building is 10 feet off the rear property line; 6. The floor area ratio shall not exceed 1.0. The property has a floor area ratio of approximately .1, which exceeds this requirement; 7. Lot must have minimum frontage of 40 feet. The subject parcel has 130 feet of frontage along 51~ Ave. He stated that parking for a prepared food delivery establishment is at least one (1) parking space for each 180 square feet of gross floor area. The gross floor area of the building is 1,590 square feet which requires eight (8) parking spaces. He added that one (1) handicap accessible space is required for every 25 regular spaces with one space shown on the site plan off the northeast corner of the building. He stated that this space will need to be van accessible and it does meet dimensional requirements for a van accessible space. He noted that the signage designating it as a van accessible space will need to meet code requirements. Mr. Hollman stated that the site plan indicates that seven (7) parking spaces are located adjacent to the north property line along 51~ Avenue adding that this area is considered the front yard for the property. He informed the Commission that Section 9.116 of the Zoning Ordinance requires that parking areas meet front yard setback requirements adding that, because this property has been vacant for over 6 months, a variance will be needed to keep the parking in this location. He stated that those parking spaces could be removed as they are not needed to meet requirements for this proposed business. All open off-street parking areas shall provide a bumper curb of five to seven inches high around the perimeter of the parking area and a curb of no less than five (5) feet from a building that has parking around it. Also, a curb of five to seven inches high will be required along the front yard setback line, and grass or plantings shall occupy the space between the right-of-way line and curb. If the parking remains in the front yard, a variance from this requirement will be needed. Mr. Hollman reviewed the loading requirements as follows: A loading berth shall be not less than 12 feet in width, 25 feet in length and 14 feet in height and, for retail sales and service stores, at least one berth for each building having 2,500- 6,000 square feet. He stated that there is a loading berth indicated on the site plan on the west end of the building. PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION REGI..II. AR M'EETING - MINUTES JULY 7, 1998 PAGE 13 He informed the Commission that the site will continue to utilize the existing ingress/egress routes adding that the site does not require a large amount of parking spaces and there appears to be ample room in the lot for safe vehicle movement. Mr. Holtman stated that solid waste material shall be so located and fenced as to be removed from public view and shall be kept in an enclosed building or properly contained in a closed container for such purposes. The site plan indicates an enclosed area off the southwest corner of the building for storage of refuse. He added that where any business is adjacent to a residential use, that business shall provide screening along the boundary of the residential property. Screening can be accomplished by a privacy fence that is not less than 50% opaque, or it can be accomplished by providing plantings along the residential property. He reviewed the proposed lighting stating that all lighting used to illuminate an off-street parking area shall be shaded or diffused so as to reflect the light away from the adjoining property and away from abutting traffic flow. He stated that glare of an intensity exceeding three (3) foot-candles at the boundary of the site, directed onto adjoining properties or onto a public street shall not be permitted. The site plan indicates two (2) new parking lot lights which are shown in the public right-of-way. These will need to be relocated within the private property lines. A lighting plan will need to be submitted, reviewed and approved by staff during the building permit review and approval process. He informed the Commission that the site plan does not indicate any areas for snow storage. The Zoning Ordinance does not contain specific size or area requirements for snow storage, but it appears that the site contains enough space for snow storage. Signage information submitted with the application indicates that the existing pylon sign will be utilized and will contain 72 square feet of signage which meets the required maximum of 75 square feet for pylon signs. Also, the site plan indicates that the sign is located 16 feet south of the front property line which exceeds the 15 foot front yard setback requirement. He stated that there are two (2) 40 square foot wall signs proposed. The maximum amount of wall signage can not exceed 100 square feet and the proposal meets this requirement. The City Comprehensive Plan designates this area for future Commercial development. One goal of the Land Use and Redevelopment Plan is to improve the commercial viability of the Central Avenue corridor while protecting nearby residential neighborhoods, and the Plan promotes the rehabilitation of existing development land in the City. The proposal will not negatively impact any nearby residential areas and will provide an appropriate reuse of an existing building, so the proposal is consistent with the City Comprehensive Plan. Chairperson Szurek opened the public hearing. Kyle Wareing representing the Minnesota Pizza Company was present to state that it was their intent to install screening along the west property line as well as install green area on the north end of the site in lieu of the existing parking spaces. PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION JULY 7, 1998 PAGE t4 Tom Piersak of 5025 Jackson Street was present to find out the hours of operation. He explained the problems he had with the Boston Market operation with the late night deliveries and noise and hoped that this new business would not bef a problem. The public hearing was closed as no one else was present to speak regarding this case. Motion by Ramsdell, seconded by Peterson, to approve the Site Plan to allow the operation of a Papa John's Pizza Prepared Food Delivery Establishment in the Retail Business Zoning District at 5098 Central Avenue, provided the seven (7) parking spaces along the northern edge of the property be brought into compliance through removal.

Mr. Hotlman informed the Commission that the Census Bureau is looking to improve the way it conducts the census in the year 2000. The formation of Complete Count Committees is one way to improve the process. The Planning and Zoning Commission is being asked to recommend whether the City Council should establish this committee. He further explained that the Census Bureau is mandated by the U.S. Constitution to take a census every ten years. PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION ,JULY 7, 1998 PAGE 15 He further explained that the Census Bureau is mandated by the U.S. Constitution to take a census every ten years. Local governments can significantly enhance Census Bureau efforts by bringing local knowledge to the process. The Complete Count Committee will be a major vehicle for planning and implementing local, targeted efforts. The role of the Complete Count Committee will be to plan and implement a locally-based promotion to publicize the importance of Census 2000. The ultimate goal of this committee will be to achieve widespread participation in the census with objectives as follows: · Develop a targeted plan of action to support Census 2000 operations, recruiting, and promotion. · Use highly visible and well-respected local figures to increase community support for and response to the census, · Promote the census to community residents through government departments,.particularly those agencies with extensive public contacts. · Implement activities that will improve census participation by all residents, especially historically undercounted segments of the population. · Emphasize the Census Bureau's commitment to confidentiality to further increase participation in the census. Augment media programs, publicity, and promotions conducted by the Census Bureau. Provide local knowledge and intelligence that will assist Census Bureau's operational activities and programs. Support Census Bureau's programs and activities that promote and improve the census. Support Census Bureau's recruitment of employees needed to conduct the census. He directed the attention of the Commission to a handbook that would provide more detailed information about the role of the Complete Count Committee. Commissioner Szurek inquired as to how many people could be on the committee and who could serve on the committee. Mr. Hollman stated that a number was not specified. Members would be appointed by the Mayor. Council Representative Peterson asked if there was a time line the City should be working within. Mr. Hollman replied that the committees should be formed now, as soon as possible. MOTION by Peterson, seconded by Szurek, to forward this information on to the City Council and recommend that the City Council establish a Complete Count Committee to assist the Census Bureau's efforts for Census 2000. **THIS ITEM TO APPEAR ON THE JULY 13, 1998 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA. B. Mr. Anderson reminded the Commission that the Minnesota Design Team had recommended the establishment of neighborhood organizations within the City of Columbia Heights. He added that staff has been considering the placement of signs within the public right of way to illustrate the boundaries of the various neighborhoods as an PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION JULY 7, ]998 PAGE ]6 implementation step. The City Manager has directed staff to obtain input from the Planning and Zoning Commission regarding the proposed boundaries and functions of the neighborhood organizations. He reminded the Commissioners that the Minnesota Design Team recommended that approximately 21 neighborhoods be established configured generally in areas that are similar in size and centered around a community park within each respective geographic area. The neighborhoods would include the business districts as well as the residential areas. Mr. Anderson stated that advantages to having active neighborhood organizations in place would be to provide a forum for discussing common issues of concern, a focal point for dissemination of information to and from members within each group, groups can foster implementation efforts of the Police Department with community policing programs, the Public Works department with public improvements ~nd the Community Development Department regarding proposed development and redevelopment activities. He also stated that neighborhood groups can function as a fund raising group to generate interest and money to pay for neighborhood sponsored activities such as block parties, recreational projects, adopt-a-park program, etc. He stated that there are also some direct and indirect costs that may be experienced as the greater the number of neighborhood organizations, the greater the likelihood of time and resource demands placed upon City staff and other government and civic organizations. He added that it is possible that these organizations could serve as another layer of formal and informal bureaucracy through which City staff and officials will have to work. He reviewed the procedures and results obtained by other cities in this type of process specifically Fridley and St. Louis Park. He informed the Commission that the former City Manager, Pat Hentges, had coordinated some work and research related to the formation of neighborhood groups in 1994 and 1995. Mr. Hentges had proposed certain steps to be taken to implement the program which Mr. Anderson felt could be used as a guide to future actions necessary if the Commission wanted to pursue the creation of neighborhood groups. Discussion followed regarding the number of neighborhood groups that would be appropriate for this city. Mr. Hollman added that Fridley has 42 individual neighborhoods grouped into districts and that they deal mainly with Police issues. Commissioner Ramsdell felt 2t groups as proposed by the Design Team would be too many groups and the seven groups as shown by a Public Works Department Street Maintenance Zone Map would not be enough. He also felt that the businesses should be mixed in with the residential areas rather than a separate group for the business areas as many of the problems that are created are business issues affecting the residential area or the opposite. Motion by Szurek, seconded by Ramsdell, to direct staff to fine tune the boundaries of the neighborhood map prepared by the Minnesota Design Team with the intent to reduce the number of total neighborhood organizations. The motion also directed staff to approach the Minnesota Design Team Steering Committee and the Neighborhoods Subcommittee and coordinate a meeting between those two groups and other people who had indicated a willingness to participate in neighborhood projects on the questionnaires completed at the seven Police Department sponsored picnics held this summer to prepare a recommendation for future City Council consideration on establishing neighborhood organizations within the City of Columbia Heights.

The funds to pay for the consultant would come out of the cable budget, although an estimated cost for this consultant was not indicated. It was noted the estimated balance of the cable fund at the end of 1998 is $282,000. There was a discussion regarding the need to solicit help from a consultant to write a RFP for a new phone system. It was determined that no one has the knowledge, or time, to establish all the specifications we may want in a system. Motion by Ken, seconded by Reuben to recommend the City Council seek RFP for a consultant and that the quotes for such come back to the commission for further recommendations to the City Council.

She said the display is very impressive and emotional for those who have never seen the actual memorial in Washington. She encouraged members to take the time to see the display. Kathi informed the members that the new alert system will be installed by the required date (December 1998). Most channels will have both audio and video alert notification capabilities. However, broadcast channels do not wish to be interrupted as it interferes with their commercial space. MediaOne has designed a plan to notify subscribers to turn to a certain channel for alert information so it doesn't interfere with broadcast channels. TELECOMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION Page 4 July 16, 1998 Kathi then reported that the company has recently been notified by the FCC that based on a 1994 rate complaint, they have 30 days to notify subscribers that they have been overcharged for Preferred Basic Service, and undercharged for Basic service. Kathi reviewed the history of how the charges were arrived at by doing a revenue neutral shift which was approved by the City Council, and that all the proper forms were filed with the FCC asking for Special Relief as required. MediaOne will be filing for a Stay on this decision and is asking for the support of the systems affected by this decision. Bob Vose explained that he will be filing a paper with the FCC stating we continue to support the Resolution we passed previously whereby we approved the Revenue Neutral Shift being implemented to distribute the charges between the two tiers of service and to keep the rates "reasonable". If the Stay is granted, the company wouldnft have to do anything until the FCC reviews the ruling. Motion by Ken, seconded by Reuben that we continue to support the Resolution previously passed by the City Council regarding the Revenue Neutral Shift that was established for the Basic and Preferred Basic service Tiers. All ayes. Co Report of the Cable Attorney Bob had nothing further to report. Report of the Assistant to the City Manager Linda informed the members that Community Development is scheduling a meeting of all Boards/Commissions for input on the Comprehensive Plan that is being updated. The meeting is tentatively scheduled for August 5~h. A memo will be sent out next week continuing the date. Motion by Ken, seconded by Reuben, to adjourn the meeting at 9:05 pm. All ayes.

PREMIUM SERVICE REPACKAGING NOTICE We recently sent you a notice that we were changing some of our premium packages. We then decided to wait before making those changes, basically due to the possibility of not having the converts in stock. We planned to introduce a new Interactive Program Guide (IPG) which ; required expanded service converters. The new date for rolling out the packages is September 1. The change on the letter should include the IPG as part of the Premium Select service at $19.95. Details are forth coming but this new service will require a converter change out for existing customers who wish to move to this service. FCC RULING Background: In 1994, in conjunction with the creation of Universal Service, Meredith Cable was required to do a channel realignment which resulted in the shifting of several channels from the CPST tier (known as Preferred) to the BST tier (known as Basic). According to the FCC rate rules, this change would have resulted in an increase in the cost of Basic service and a decrease in the cost of Preferred. The Company, in cooperation with the Commissions and staffs, agreed to create a "revenue neutral" scenario, where we kept a lower cost Basic rate. The increase not applied to the Basic rate ended up being shifted to the upper tier in a manner that was revenue neutral. The Company filed the 1200 series forms with the FCC showing the proper rates for the CPST tier but applied for "special relief" to allow us the revenue neutral shill All of the Commissions actually approved the higher BST rate, and, in theory, the lower CPST rate calculated on the FCC forms, and passed a resolution authorizing the revenue neutral shift. That same resolution dealt with what would happen if the FCC didn't approve the Company's request. In short, the resolution allows the Company to offset any refund request due to an overhcarge on the CPST tier with the undercharge on the BST tier. Recently, the FCC ruled on the complaints filed in 1994 and ordered the Company to notify the subscribers within 30 days that they will be receiving a refund. We are asking for a stay of this order pending a full appeal to the FCC. The result of this would be notifying Preferred/Basic subscribers that they will get a refund on the Preferred rate but that they were undercharged on the Basic. That would also mean that the subscribers to Basic underpaid us for the past 4 years and would be required to true that up. Action: We would ask that the Commission assist us in this very important first step in asking the FCC to stay the order to notify subscribers of a potential refund until such time as the appeal to the full FCC Commission is ruled on. Secondly, we ask that the Commission and staff cooperate with our legal counsel in filing further petitions with the FCC.
