Pat Hentges, City Manager 95/18 OFFICIAL PROCEEDINGS COLUMBIA HEIGHTS CITY COUNCIL SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING FEBRUARY 28, 1995 The Special Council Meeting was called to order by Mayor Sturdevant at 7:05 p.m. Jolly, Ruettimann, Peters.n, Sturdevant - present PURPOSE OF SPECIAL MEETING Discuss and address inquiries as to Bruce Nawrocki's request for appointment to the City Council.~ The City Manager reviewed the history of Mr. Nawrocki's resignation from the City Council and the ensuing Council actions. At the December 12, 1994 Council Meeting, Mr. Nawrocki submitted his resignation letter with the resignation being effectiveDecember 31, 1994. A council vacancy was declared by the Council at its January 9, 1995 Council Meeting. The vacancy was discussed at the February 6, 1995 Council Work Session as was a letter dated February 6, 1995 received from Mr. Nawrocki. This letter stated his interest in being considered for appointment to the vacancy. A letter was also received from Ms. Nan Tilkens indicating her interest in being considered for appointment to the vacancy. Ms. Tilkens withdrew her request shortly thereafter. Similar requests were received from Mr. David Abraham and Mr. James Johnson at a later time. A City Attorney's opinion had been sought and responded to regarding the appointment process. The City Manager advised there was discussion about Mr. Nawrocki's eligibility and qualifications regarding the appointment and some discussion relative to charter requirements. He noted that PERA, the retirement fund which had required Mr. Nawrocki to resign from the Council, has formally declined to provide the City with information about the disposition of his retirement if he were to be appointed to the Council. The City Manager referred to all of the correspondence received about this appointment and vacancy. SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING FEBRUARY 28, 1995 PAGE 2 Mr. Nawrocki read a prepared statement which addressed his interest in being appointed to the Council, his qualifications to serve in this position, his observations relative to his pension, and what action he may have to take if his pension were to be denied based on his appointment to the Council. He distributed tot he Council copies of the PERApolicy regarding working after retirement in the public service sector. The resident at 3974 Quincy Street supports Mr. Nawrocki's appointment. She recalled how helpful he had been with an issue regarding a proposal for Huset Park. The resident at 5129 Seventh Street, who serves cn the Charter Commission, questioned the ethics and fairness of the process and felt the delay with handling the matter was poor. Councilmember Ruettimann responded that there is no procedure in place to addressthis situation and this has contributed to the problem. The resident at 3939 Van Buren Street suggested negligence on the Council's part resulting in the delay. She indicated her intention to apply for appointment to the Charter Commission. She also acknowledged having received some incorrect information regarding the appointment process and activities of Mr. Nawrocki as representing the City since his resignation. The resident at 625 47th Avenue had written a letter supporting the appointment of Mr. Nawrocki. She also spoke to this matter at the Special Meeting. A former Mayor stated his opinion that Mr. Nawrocki brings superior qualifications to the vacancy and was supportive of his appointment. The resident at 1137 44 1/2 Avenue was not supportive of Mr. Nawrocki's appointment citing various issues and activities in which Mr. Nawrocki participated in what the resident viewed a detrimental way. The resident at 1221 39thAvenue felt this special meeting was the proper thing to do as she views public input as a priority. She felt Mr. Nawrocki should not be appointed to the vacancy and other should begiventhe opportunity for service on the Council. She had some questions regardingMr. Nawrocki continuing to receive City material he formerly received as a seated Councilmember. The City Manager responded to her questions. She also observed that some councilmembers appear to agree that the process for appointment needs to be more clearly defined. SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING FEBRUARY 28, 1995 PAGE 3 The resident at 1037 43rd Avenue supports the appointment of Hr. Nawrocki and feels the issue has been blown out of proportion. The resident at 4200 Madison Street inquired how similar situations involving PERA retirees had been handled. Councilmember Jolly noted there had been a somewhat similar situation last year but was not sure it was analogous. Me spoke to his own experiences as a retiree from public service and an office seeker. 3. CONSIDER APPOINTN~NT TO FIr.T. THE CITY COUNCIL VACANCY This appointment will run until the end of the year but the seat will be onthe ballot for the 1995 municipal elections. Councilme~ber Jolly inquired if Hr. Nawrocki could complete the term. Hr. Nawrocki responded he is prepared to serve. He noted that PERA does not have an exact precedent to his situation. He also stated he would have to resign if PERA decided to interrupt his retirement benefits based on this appointment. Councilmember Jolly noted that all members of the Council agree that Hr. Nawrocki's experience and credentials to serve on the Council are superior. Their primary concern was if they appointed him to the Council this may Jeopardize his retirementpension. Councilmember Jolly holds the opinion that the PERA Board would not act in Mr. Nawrocki's favor. Councilmember Ruettimann said his only concern is this vacancy would have to be addressed again if Hr. Nawrocki were forced to resign again to receive his retirement benefits. Councilmember Peterson stated he could not support Hr. Nawrocki's appointment because he could not guarantee the entire term would be fulfilled. Mayor Sturdevant suggested this matter should bediscussed at the March 6th Council work session. The City Manager reco~endeda process to receive applications from those interested in being considered for the appointment. Receipt of applications would be closed on March 13thwiththe applications received being presented to the Council at the Regular Council Meeting on that date. He reviewed the accompanying publicity in the local newspapers and on cable television. The applications could be reviewed for two weeks and the appointment could be made at the March 27th Council Meeting. SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING FEBRUARY 28, 1995 PAGE 4 e There was a five minute recess taken from the Special Meeting. Motion by Sturdevant to appoint Bruce Nawrocki to the City Council vacancy.

The other three members of the Council stated their rankings of applicants for the Civil Service Commission. One applicant, Sean Clerkin, was not interviewed for the position.

Malcolm and Esther Watson have requested that they be allowed to purchase the duplex at 4535-37 Taylor Street N.E. and to renovate the structure into a single family house. Due to the costs for renovation being at least $35,000 and the expected value after renovation expected to be only approximately $80,000, the Watsons will purchase the property as is for $45,000.

Columbia Heights, Mn. 55421 Gentlemen: This letter is a request to purchase the city-owned vacant duplex structure at 4535-37 Taylor St. N.E. I under- stand that the city can supply a clear title, free of any liens or encumberances. It would be our intention , if you see fit to accept our offer, to remodle the duplex into a split entry single family dwelling. It will ultimately be occupied by our daughter and son-in-law and their three children. Our son-in-law Tech Sergeant Dale E. Cichocke will complete his 20 year tour of duty with the Air Force 3une 1, We know that the building is in need of extensive repairs and renovations to bring it up to code and fit for occupancy. This includes but is not limited to: Building a new double garage, repair plumbing (some new fixtures), replacing the double front doors with a single new door, remove inside wall to create a broad landing, replace rotted window frames and windows, replace almost all interior doors, repair broken plaster, repair broken stucco siding, replace rusted gutters & downspouts, remove and replace all old floor coverings, replace overhang soffits, install concrete sidewalks & steps, replace two old furnaces, replace sump pump, clean and repaint all interior walls & ceilings after repairs, and install all ne- cessary window coverings. The costs to accomplish the foregoing will exceed $35,000. Family members will also do much "sweat equity" in the cleaning and minor repairs. Based on our cost projections and information from a contractor we can make an offer for this property in an as-is condition of Forty five Thousand dollars ($45,000). We would respectfully furthur request that you take action on this request as soon as possible so that we can proceed with financial arrangements and refurbishing to allow occupancy on or about June 1, 1~9~.

Wagamon Brothers and Ernest and Betty Paulson are the only owners of property along this alley located between 37th and 38th Avenues and 3rd Street to University Avenue. Attached are letters from the Police and Public Works Departments stating that they have no objections to closing the alley. However, the Fire Department has concerns that are addressed in the enclosed letter. To avoid an unkept area, because University Avenue right of way is on the East line of the alley, I would recommend that the Ordinance state that the 14 feet of vacated alley be granted to the property owners along the west line of the alley. The Wagamon brothers are also in the process of applying for fence permit to enclose portions of their yards for the purpose of providing security for vehicles that are being serviced by their business. I emphasize that these vehicles in some cases are inoperable when they are brought in, and in other cases are repaired and remain in the storage yard until the owner makes arrangements to pay for his or her bill. However, they assured us that they do not impound or store cars for the purpose of salvaging parts. The Wagamons have indicated intentions to plant evergreens adjacent to the south and east boundaries of their properties, and screen their "block" storage area that is in front of their property. Because they are an existing business, and the type of vehicle storage is not of a permanent nature, the screening and fencing does not require the approval of the Planning Commission or the City Council. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to waive the reading of the ordinance, there being ample copies available to the public. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to establish the Second Reading of Ordinance No. 1299 for Monday, April 10, 1995, at approximately 7 p.m. COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NO. 1299 BEING AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. 853 CITY CODE OF 1977, VACATING A CERTAIN ALLEY EASEMENT The City of Columbia Heights does ordain: Section 1: The City of Columbia Heights herewith vacates the public alley over, across, and under the following described property, to wit: The alley running North-South, adjacent on the east side to Lots 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, and 30, Block 91, Columbia Heights Annex to Minneapolis, Columbia Heights, Anoka County, Minnesota, excepting and reserving the authority of any person, corporation or municipality owning or controlling electric or telephone poles and lines, gas and sewer lines, or water pipes, mains and hydrants, thereon or thereunder, to continue maintaining the same or to enter upon such way or portion thereof vacated to maintain, repair, replace, remove or otherwise attend thereto.

OLD BUSINESS PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER TRAFFIC CONTROL ON JOHNSON STREET FROM 49TH AVENUE TO LINCOLN TERRACE A Public Hearing was held to consider traffic control on Johnson Street from 49th Avenue to Lincoln Terrace. Mr. William Marshall and petitioners were present to discuss their concerns and to encourage the Commission to recommend to the Council that more frequent radar monitoring of motor vehicle speeds over 20 m.p.h., installation of one stop sign at the intersection with Innsbruck Parkway, installation of a speed hump at the north end of Mathaire Park, construction of a sidewalk along Mathaire Park to 49th Ave. and "no parking" along the west side of Johnson Street from 49th Avenue to the north edge of Mathaire Park. Staff reviewed and discussed each of the requests at length. The 20 mph signs posted at each end of the park are advisory and not enforceable. Mn/DOT's study on Johnson St. determined that the urban statutory speed limit of 30 mph is considered the "maximum" safe speed. A school speed limit zone is not warranted as no school crosswalk abuts property where school buildings are located. Official Proceedings Columbia Heights Traffic Commission March 6, 1995 Page 2 The City conducted a traffic volume and speed count on Johnson Street. Northbound u'affic between 49th Avenue and Innsbruck Parkway was 1,267 vehicles in a 48-hour period with 98% of the vehicles traveling at 30 mph or less and southbound traffic between Innsbruck Parkway and Lincoln Terrace was 916 vehicles in a 48-hour period with 55% of the vehicles traveling 30 mph or less and 80% of the vehicles traveling at 35 mph or less. Traffic on Innsbruck Parkway is required to stop. A stop sign on Johnson St. is not warranted. Staff felt that stop signs would be ineffective in slowing the traffic through the park area as northbound traffic is just entering onto Johnson St. from 49th Ave. Southbound traffic would not be forced to slow down until nearing the south end of the park. Installation of speed humps has been discussed with the City Council provided the established guidelines are met. It has been suggested that the property owners in the area pay for the installation or removal of the speed humps. The cost to install speed humps would be close to $5,000 for two. A more accurate speed study would need to be conducted to determine if the traffic speed complies with the guidelines. This could be done once a petition is received to install and pay for two speed humps. Staff has been asked to write a policy and will be bringing it to the Traffic Commission at their next meeting and recommending it go to the City Council for adoption. Staff discussed the installation of a sidewalk on the west side of Johnson St. from 49th Ave. to the north side of Mathaire Park with the Park and Recreation Commission. There is some support for the proposal. It is suggested that a 5-6' bituminous pathway could be installed. A concrete walkway would be far too costly. The Commission felt it was better to have "No Parking" on the west side of Johnson St. Mr. Winson indicated no funds are budgeted for a pathway and suggested if the residents were interested in the installation of a sidewalk, a petition should be submitted to the Park and Recreation Commission. No parking along the west side of Johnson St. from 49th Ave. to the north edge of Mathaire Park is one solution to provide improved visibility in the area provided the property owners in the area support it. Staff also discussed the recent legislation allowing cities to reduce the speed limit to 25 mph on certain residential streets less than 1/4 mile in length. However, County Road 104 was recently turned back to the City (including Johnson St. from 49th Ave. to Innsbruck Parkway) which disqualifies Johnson St. for the lower speed limit. Official Proceedings Columbia Heights Traffic Commission March 6, 1995 Page 3 Residents present were given an opportunity to address the issues. One suggestion was to consider expanding the Mathaire parking lot. Staff indicated there wasn't enough room between the building and the pool to expand parking. However, the school parking lot is accessible to the park. If the pathway were installed, at some future time it could be continued around the park area to make the parking lot more usable. Mr. Marshall again expressed his concerns with the safety of children and felt a stop sign and a sidewalk are necessary. Staff stated that a stop sign is not a solution for slowing traffic down. A suggestion was made that the "no parking" be on the east side so children would not have to cross the street when parents park on that side. Residents present indicated they did not feel it fair for them to be assessed for speed humps when it is a public street used by anyone. They did indicate that they would be willing to "chip in" if it was a feasible solution. Staff indicated a legal opinion will be obtained from the City Attorney. Motion by Jolly, second by Duda, to recommend the City Council designate "No Parking" on the west side of Johnson St. N.E. from 49th Ave. to the north edge of Mathaire Park. Roll Call: Ail ayes. A suggestion was also made that the City look at installing an official sign at Mathaire Park with the Columbia Heights logo that states "Additional Parking On The Other Side Of Park". Motion by Duda, second by Sturdevant, to recommend to the Park and Recreation Commission to look into a sidewalk from the end of the school property adjacent to 49th Ave. to the north end of Mathaire Park. Roll call: All ayes. REVISED SITE PLAN REVIEW FOR HOLIDAY STATION STORE AT 43RD AVENUE AND CENTRAL AVENUE Representatives from Holiday Station Store were present to explain the revised traffic patterns at the site. Two approaches will remain on Central Avenue in approximately the same location, one for Big Wheel Rossi and one for the Holiday Station. The existing north approach to the Holiday Station will be eliminated. Two approaches will remain on 43rd Avenue. The east approach will Official Proceedings Columbia Heights Traffic Commission March 6, 1995 Page 4 IV. VI. VII. be in the proposed location. A second approach closer to Central Ave. was added. This west approach is less than 50' from Central Ave. To avoid stacking problems on 43rd Ave., the approach will be designated as an "enter only". Motion by Duda, second by Jolly, to approve the proposed access plan for the Holiday Station Store at 4259 Central Ave. identified as Option 12. Roll Call: All ayes. OTHER OLD BUSINESS None NEW BUSINESS None OTHER NEW BUSINESS None REPORTS A. CITY ENGINEER The property owner at 4209 6th St. requested a handicap parking sign be installed in front of the property. The owner provided the City Engineer with the required State ID number. The sign was installed and the property owner will be requested to inform the City Engineer when the sign is no longer needed. For information only. The First Community Credit Union, 843 40th Ave. N.E. is proposing to conduct a "One day car sale" in their lot on Friday, April 21, 1995. This is proposed as an annual event if it is successful. Approximately 20 new/used cars will be on site. The sale is for members only. The Credit Union anticipates 300 people will view the cars throughout the day. Staff does not anticipate a traffic problem due to the sale. Official Proceedings Columbia Heights Traffic Commission March 6, 1995 Page 5 VIII. B. POLICE CHIEF Acting Police Chief Olson has received complaints concerning truck parking on 45th Ave. from Benjamin St. to Stinson Blvd. This is a County State Aid Highway so options may be limited. One solution might be to restrict parking on 45th Ave. No further action was recommended. The caller has been advised to proceed through proper channels to formally request a parking restriction. C.

Residents in attendance supported the request along the length of the park in order to provide improved visibility in the area.

Public Hearing Conditional Use Permit Case #9503-06 Ace Hardware 2261 N.E. 37th Avenue Columbia Heights, Mn. Evelyn Nygaard presented the request of Dan Terzich, Manager for Ace Hardware at 2261 N.E. 37th Avenue, for a Conditional Use Permit to allow the use of an accessory structure consisting of a 48'x24' tent to be located in the parking lot in front of Ace Hardware from April 20 through July 7, 1995 to conduct the retail sales of green and flowering plants. Approximately eight parking spaces would be eliminated directly in front of the store. She stated that this operation would be the same as was approved for use in 1993 and 1994. She stated that the Fire Department has reviewed the proposal and do not have any concerns other than that compliance with the requirements of Article 32 of the Minnesota Uniform Fire Code are required. Motion by Peterson, seconded by Fowler, to recommend to the City Council the approval of the Conditional Use Permit as requested provided there is compliance with the requirements of Article 32 of the Mn. Uniform Fire Code and that a $500 deposit is submitted to the License/Permit Clerk prior to the installation of the tent to assure its removal by July 8, 1995.

PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING - MINUTES MARCH 7, 1995 PAGE 2 Bo Public Hearing Conditional Use Permit Case//9503-07 1st Community Credit Union 843 N.E. 40th Avenue Columbia Heights, Mn. Evelyn Nygaard presented the request of the First Community Credit Union for a Conditional Use permit to allow the operation of a one-day car sales promotion on April 21, 1995 with a tent display in the northerly parking lot of 843 N.E. 40th Avenue. She explained that approximately twenty (20) new and used cars are proposed to be parked on the north side of the Credit Union parking lot including the fourth drive-thru lane eliminating the nine north parking spaces. The site plan indicated the parking position of the autos that would be offered for sale. By angling them with their front ends facing southwest toward the alley, the Credit Union believes that, should the need arise to take the cars out of position for a test drive or purchase, they can continue the regular traffic flow pattern. Autos now enter the Credit Union property off Van Buren Street only and exit either onto 40th Avenue or through the alley at the west end of the property. The plan for the day of the car sale would be to have all autos involved in the sale exit only through the fourth drive-thru lane which will be closed to teller transactions for the day and exit using the alley. The eleven parking spaces in the easterly parking area would be available for customer parking. Vehicles will be offered for sale to members from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Rick Lange, representing the Credit Union, was in attendance to explain that invitations would be mailed to the members of the Credit Union for this event. However, if someone would be interested in making a purchase and is not a member, they could complete an application that day and if the requirements for membership and the loan process are met, a purchase could be made. He stated that this special event was on an experimental basis depending on how it is received by the membership and if any problems are encountered. If it is a success, it would be the intention of the Credit Union to pursue this type of event on a two to three time per year basis. He informed the Commission that this type of event is held in other communities on a semi-annual basis. The Credit Union anticipates that this could be very successful due to the lack of dealerships in the area and the ability for people in the community to have a closer look at the cars. Motion by Fowler, seconded by Peterson, to recommend to the City Council the approval of the Conditional Use Permit to allow a one-day car sales promotion on April 21, 1995 in the northerly parking lot of 843 N.E. 40th Avenue and placement of a tent in the same area provided a $500 deposit is submitted prior to the installation of the tent to assure its removal by April 22, 1995.

This item was withdrawn by the applicant on March 7, 1995. The project will be redesigned to fit the lot without the need for a variance. STAFF REPORTS: Discussion was held on the possibility of amending the City Ordinance to allow a one to three day event to be administratively approved rather than filing for a Conditional Use Permit and appearing before the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council. The Planning and Zoning Commission directed Staff to survey surrounding communities to see how such events are regulated and the process used. Don Schneider informed the Commission that the possible sale of 500 N.E. 38th Avenue is being discussed for purchase by Metro Assemblies. He stated that this company manufactures medical components and would employ up to twenty-one people on varying shifts. He indicated that it could be possible that a variance may be necessary for parking. Mr. Schneider also updated the Commission on the status of the activity in the Sheffield Area. He also stated that Christina Goodroad would be the new Zoning/Grant Administrator as of March 13, 1995 coming to the City of Columbia Heights from the City of Anoka.

They, therefore, request a Conditional Use Permit to erect and operate a motor fuel station/convenience store with a car wash on their current site and variances to allow the following: 1. A dumpster room built into the front wall line of the proposed building. The area would be accessed by an overhead door. It would be separated from the convenience store by fire resistive construction and would require a sprinkler head to be installed in the room. 2. The location of parking spaces at the front of the building due to the hardship of the rear of the lot being higher than the front and 43rd Avenue being higher than the lot. Seven parking spaces would be provided directly in front of the building and another twenty spaces would be available at the pumps. Required parking spaces are calculated at 200 square feet per space. The net floor area of the building has 3,780 square feet, therefore, nineteen (19) spaces would be required for the convenience store. An additional six (6) spaces of off-street parking are required for the car wash use per Section 9.116(18) (i) of the Columbia Heights Zoning Ordinance. A total of 25 spaces will be required and 27 spaces are being provided. The members of the Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously recommend approval of the Conditional Use Permit and the requested variances including the new ingress/egress on 43rd Avenue within the one foot limitation and the site plan contingent upon compliance with the recommendations stated in the memo dated February 2, 1995 from the Public Works Director and subject to the final approval of site access by the Traffic Commission including the two curb cuts as proposed on 43rd Avenue. The proposed redevelopment was reviewed and approved by the City Engineer and the Traffic Commission at their meeting of March 6, 1995. Minutes from the Traffic Commission meeting are attached.

WINSON PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR/CITY ENGINEER 4259 CENTRAL AVENUE, HOLIDAY STATION FEBRUARY 2, 1995 The Engineering Staff has reviewed the proposed plan (dated 1/16/95) for reconstruction of the Holiday Station, 4259 Central Avenue, with regard to grading, drainage and access. The following are our comments: Site access has been changed from the preliminary plan reviewed by the Traffic Commission on January 4, 1995. The west entrance on 43rd Avenue must be at least 50' from Central Avenue. Before the owner obtains building permits from the City, site access must be revised and the proposed plan acceptable to the City Engineer. The site access plan will be presented to the Traffic Commission at the March 6 meeting for final approval. The owner needs to obtain the necessary permits from Mn/DOT with regard to the access location on Hwy. 65. Staff requests copies of these permits for our records. The proposed grading plan appears to be adequate. The design directs a majority of the on-site drainage to on-site catch basins which greatly reduces runoff to the street system. The drainage system appears to be adequate and complies with the request by staff to provide on-site temporary storage of runoff. This is accomplished by the use of large underground pipes. Staff requests a copy of design calculations for our records. The owner will need to obtain the necessary permits from Mn/DOT to install the new manhole in Hwy. 65. 5. The owner is responsible for all utility contacts.

OLD BUSINESS Ao PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER TRAFFIC CONTROL ON JOHNSON STREET FROM 49TH AVENUE TO LINCOLN TERRACE A Public Hearing was held to consider traffic control on Johnson Street from 49th Avenue to Lincoln Terrace. Mr. William Marshall and petitioners were present to discuss their concerns and to encourage the Commission to recommend to the Council that more frequent radar monitoring of motor vehicle speeds over 20 m.p.h., installation of one stop sign at the intersection with Innsbruck Parkway, installation of a speed hump at the north end of Mathaire Park, construction of a sidewalk along Mathaire Park to 49th Ave. and "no parking" along the west side of Johnson Street from 49th Avenue to the north edge of Mathaire Park. Staff reviewed and discussed each of the requests at length. The 20 mph signs posted at each end of the park are advisory and not enforceable. Mn/DOT's study on Johnson St. determined that the urban statutory speed limit of 30 mph is considered the "maximum" safe speed. A school speed limit zone is not wan'anted as no school crosswalk abuts property where school buildings are located. Official Proceedings Columbia Heights Traffic Commission March 6, 1995 Page 2 The City conducted a traffic volume and speed count on Johnson Street. Northbound traffic between 49th Avenue and Innsbruck Parkway was 1,267 vehicles in a 48-hour period with 98% of the vehicles traveling at 30 mph or less and southbound traffic between Innsbmck Parkway and Lincoln Terrace was 916 vehicles in a 48-hour period with 55% of the vehicles traveling 30 mph or less and 80% of the vehicles traveling at 35 mph or less. Traffic on Innsbruck Parkway is required to stop. A stop sign on Johnson St. is not wan'anted. Staff felt that stop signs would be ineffective in slowing the traffic through the park area as northbound traffic is just entering onto Johnson St. from 49th Ave. Southbound traffic would not be forced to slow down until nearing the south end of the park. Installation of speed humps has been discussed with the City Council provided the established guidelines are met. It has been suggested that the property owners in the area pay for the installation or removal of the speed humps. The cost to install speed humps would be close to $5,000 for two. A more accurate speed study would need to be conducted to determine if the traffic speed complies with the guidelines. This could be done once a petition is received to install and pay for two speed humps. Staff has been asked to write a policy and will be bringing it to the Traffic Commission at their next meeting and recommending it go to the City Council for adoption. Staff discussed the installation of a sidewalk on the west side of Johnson St. from 49th Ave. to the north side of Mathaire Park with the Park and Recreation Commission. There is some support for the proposal. It is suggested that a 5-6' bituminous pathway could be installed. A concrete walkway would be far too costly. The Commission felt it was better to have "No Parking" on the west side of Johnson St. Mr. Winson indicated no funds are budgeted for a pathway and suggested if the residents were interested in the installation of a sidewalk, a petition should be submitted to the Park and Recreation Commission. No parking along the west side of Johnson St. from 49th Ave. to the north edge of Mathaire Park is one solution to provide improved visibility in the area provided the property owners in the area support it. Staff also discussed the recent legislation allowing cities to reduce the speed limit to 25 mph on certain residential streets less than 1/4 mile in length. However, County Road 104 was recently turned back to the City (including Johnson St. from 49th Ave. to Innsbruck Parkway) which disqualifies Johnson St. for the lower speed limit. Official Proceedings Columbia Heights Traffic Commission March 6, 1995 Page 3 Bo Residents present were given an opportunity to address the issues. One suggestion was to consider expanding the Mathaire parking lot. Staff indicated there wasn't enough room between the building and the pool to expand parking. However, the school parking lot is accessible to the park. If the pathway were installed, at some future time it could be continued around the park area to make the parking lot more usable. Mr. Marshall again expressed his concerns with the safety of children and felt a stop sign and a sidewalk are necessary. Staff stated that a stop sign is not a solution for slowing traffic down. A suggestion was made that the "no parking" be on the east side so children would not have to cross the street when parents park on that side. Residents present indicated they did not feel it fair for them to be assessed for speed humps when it is a public street used by anyone. They did indicate that they would be willing to "chip in" ff it was a feasible solution. Staff indicated a legal opinion will be obtained from the City Attorney. Motion by Jolly, second by Duda, to recommend the City Council designate "No Parking" on the west side of Johnson St. N.E. from 49th Ave. to the north edge of Mathaire Park. Roll Call: All ayes. A suggestion was also made that the City look at installing an official sign at Mathaire Park with the Columbia Heights logo that states "Additional Parking On The Other Side Of Park". Motion by Duda, second by Sturdevant, to recommend to the Park and Recreation Commission to look into a sidewalk from the end of the school property adjacent to 49th Ave. to the north end of Mathaire Park. Roll call: All ayes. REVISED SITE PLAN REVIEW FOR HOLIDAY STATION STORE AT 43RD AVENUE AND CENTRAL AVENUE Representatives from Holiday Station Store were present to explain the revised traffic patterns at the site. Two approaches will remain on Central Avenue in approximately the same location, one for Big Wheel Rossi and one for the Holiday Station. The existing north approach to the Holiday Station will be eliminated. Two approaches will remain on 43rd Avenue. The east approach will Official Proceedings Columbia Heights Traffic Commission March 6, 1995 Page 4 IV. be in the proposed location. A second approach closer to Central Ave. was added. This west approach is less than 50' from Central Ave. To avoid stacking problems on 43rd Ave., the approach will be designated as an "enter only". Motion by Duda, second by Jolly, to approve the proposed access plan for the Holiday Station Store at 4259 Central Ave. identified as Option 12. Roll Call: All ayes. OTHER OLD BUSINESS None NEW BUSINESS None OTHER NEW BUSINESS None REPORTS A. CITY ENGINEER The property owner at 4209 6th St. requested a handicap parking sign be installed in front of the property. The owner provided the City Engineer with the required State ID number. The sign was installed and the property owner will be requested to inform the City Engineer when the sign is no longer needed. For information only. The First Community Credit Union, 843 40th Ave. N.E. is proposing to conduct a "One day car sale" in their lot on Friday, April 21, 1995. This is proposed as an annual event if it is successful. Approximately 20 new/used cars will be on site. The sale is for members only. The Credit Union anticipates 300 people will view the cars throughout the day. Staff does not anticipate a traffic problem due to the sale. Official Proceedings Columbia Heights Traffic Commission March 6, 1995 Page 5 B. POLICE CH~.F Acting Police Chief Olson has received complaints concerning truck parking on 45th Ave. from Benjamin St. to Stinson Blvd. This is a County State Aid Highway so options may be limited. One solution might be to restrict parking on 45th Ave. No further action was recommended. The caller has been advised to proceed through proper channels to formally request a parking restriction. C.

This vehicle is used by the Water Department and is usually assigned to the employee who services water meters. The van is used to Ixansport the numerous pieces of equipment and parts for turning water on and off at the stop box, stop box and valve parts and water meter repair parts. The vehicle is also used for keeping certain equipment warm and dry during water/sewer main repairs. The van currently has approximately 82,500 miles. Staff proposes to purchase a "cube" van to replace this vehicle. This type of vehicles provides substantially more storage and provides headroom in the cargo area. This will allow more tools and equipment to be kept at the site for water/sewer repairs. Several types of meter repair could be accomplished on site instead of being brought back into the shop. This would also provide a safe, warm and dry location for employees working on main break repairs during winter. The current van would be passed to the Parks Department to replace #235, a 1977 Dodge Tradesman. This vehicle is used to transport seasonal workers and equipment and is used to keep watering hoses warm during the hockey and skating rink maintenance. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to authorize staff to seek bids to replace the Water Department Van #117. MAW:jb 95-135 COUNCIL ACTION: CAPITAL EQUIPMENT PURCHASE JUSTIFICATION 1.

TO TECHNICAL ADVISORY COMMITYEE FOR DATE: 3/8/95 D RICE CREEK WATERSHED DISTRICT ~ The Rice Creek Watershed District is in the process of preparing major revisions to its District Management Plan. As part of the preparation for the management plan, the RCWD is creating a Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) composed of representatives from each of the municipalities within the Watershed District. Staff is suggesting that the Public Works Director/City Engineer be appointed to this Committee to represent the City. Additionally, the Watershed District is looking for representatives from each community on their Citizen's Task Force. Councilmember Jolly has indicated an interest in serving on the Citizen's Task Force. This group would meet in conjunction with the district's existing citizens advisory committee which meets the first Wednesday of each month at 7:00 P.M. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to appoint the Public Works Director/City Engineer to the Technical Advisory Committee of the Rice Creek Watershed District; and furthermore, to appoint Councilmember Jolly to the Citizen's Task Force of the Rice Creek Watershed District.

FOR KITCHEN AT JPM~'""~o / The 1995 budget allocates $4,800 for replacement of the kitchen floor at JPM. The existing vinyl floor has cracked and peeled and is, therefore, not acceptable to the County Health Department. Staff requested bids from three vendors to remove the existing flooring and install quarry tile that will approximately match the existing tile flooring in the hallway. Quarry tile will be easier to maintain and should last much longer than vinyl or rubber flooring. The following quotes were submitted: Tile Interiors, Hopkins House Calls, Blaine D & D Home Improvement, Fridley $ 4,310.31 $ 4,493.00 $ 7,130.00 Tile Interiors has previously done satisfactory work for the City. It has been stipulated that the work begin on a Sunday and be completed by the next Friday in order to meet scheduled events at JPM. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to award floor replacement for JPM kitchen to Tile Interiors of Hopkins, Minnesota, based on their low quote of $4,310.31, funding to be from Fund 101-45129-5120; and, furthermore, to authorize the Mayor and City Manager to enter into an agreement for the same.

Winson ~ DABY"~~ · DATE: 3/8/95 NO. CONNECTION IN HERITAGE HEIGHTS ~, ¢1 The agreement with First Choice Homes on the sale of properties in Heritage Heights includes the provision that the City will provide water and sewer services to the property line. The existing water services for the previous rental units were left in when the units were removed. These services are 3/4" copper lines with 3/4" taps. In 1991, the City revised the portion of the City Code dealing with services. Current code requires that 1" taps and service lines be used for all new residential construction. This is based on the need to provide sufficient volume to handle the higher use of water that has evolved. In order to be consistent with our own code, it will be necessary to replace the 3/4 inch services with one inch services. Staff has arranged with a local plumbing fuxn to do the work at $587.50 each with the City doing the backf'flling and surface restoration. For the 18 lots in Heritage Heights, the cost would be $10,575. Staff suggest that the $15,000 funded for cleaning one block of watermain be used to cover this expense. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to authorize the use of $15,000 funded in the Water Construction Fund 651-49449-5130 (watermain cleaning) for replacement of water services in Heritage Heights.

Date .Signature CITY OF COLUIVIBIA HEIGHTS /0 TO: FROM: DATE: RE: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL PATRICK HENTGES, CITY MANAGER MARCH 10, 1995 CITY MANAGER'S REPORT REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF MARCH 13, 1995 1) OPERATIONAL REPORTS Attached please find the operational reports for January, 1995. 2) COUNCIL APPOINTMENT APPLICATIONS To date, the City has only received two applications for filing on the City Council. However, there are eight outstanding applications that have been picked up, but not returned. I will forward a complete listing of Council candidate applications to the City Council at Monday's meeting. The closing date is 4:45 p.m. on Monday, March 13th, 1995. 3) SPECIAL TAX INCREMENT BILL On Thursday, March 9, I testified before the Senate Tax Sub-Committee regarding the City's Tax Increment Bill calling for an exemption of the HACA/LGA penalty. Senator Novak has been very supportive of our efforts, as has Representative Simoneau for the House version of the Bill. In the House of Representatives, the LGA/HACA exemption bills have run into some opposition from Representative Ann Rest of the New Hope area. She would like cities to share the HACA/LGA penalties through the inclusion of general fund or levy dollars (except in the case of smaller ethanol plant and/or housing projects that would be exempt). As it stands to date, we have a large local participation share in the Sheffield Tax Increment Project, but it is not clear that our financing proposal may not meet Representative Rest's criteria for local participation. We will be working with Representative Rest, our local legislators, and our bond and financial advisors to facilitate changes to our proposal to meet Representative Rest's concerns. I will keep the Council apprised of any new developments, as the bills move towards final approval in the form or inclusion within the Omnibus Tax Bill. 4) SHEFFIELD FIRST TIME HOME BUYER--FILLMORE/45 1/2 Be advised that after further review, First Choice Homes has decided to remove the existing foundation and construct a new basement for the starter home being proposed at the intersection of Fillmore and 45 1/2. First Choice Homes will be responsible for removal of the debris, except that the City will work with the demolition contractor to have the debris hauled away and disposed of. The financial aspects of the original agreement will remain the same. Hopefully, construction will begin this week. On a related matter, City staff is having difficulty in getting our house moving contractor mobilized to remove the four remaining structures on the target block. After some equipment problems, he is now up on the site preparing the interiors of the structures for removal, and has been doing some salvaging. We had thought about extending an opportunity to other contractors to remove the structures. However, in most cases, they need upwards to 120 days to make arrangements to sell and place the structures on other sites, as opposed to existing contractor who has capabilities to store the structures prior to final placement. First Choice Homes is quite anxious to have the structures removed, as it appears to have a number of bona fide sales inquiries for lots which are on or adjacent to the four remaining structures. Mr. Nedegaard has indicated that their marketing and inquiries have been very favorable. There has been some concern about condition and appearance of the some of the duplex/rental properties located across the street from the target block or near the entrances to the neighborhood. 5) POLICE CHIEF APPOINTMENT/CIVIL SERVICE PROCESS Mayor Sturdevant has forwarded a letter to the Civil Service Commission requesting that they begin the testing/qualification process for the Police Chief appointment. I have discussed the matter with the Chair, Gerry Herringer. He indicated the Commission will be discussing and voting on in the near future a specific process. However, he did inquire as to the availability of funding necessary to administer a written test and other costs of the necessary notices and ads. Last time, the Commission spent nearly $5,000 having the test administered, validating its results, and reviewing the qualifications of the applicants. Whether the test be open to only the existing employee or open to all qualified candidates, a validated test must be administered, as in the case of normal, promotional exam or entry level police officer selection. I expect that after the Commission meets, it will be requesting an appropriation of funding from the Council to administer the test and facilitate the process. I will keep the Council apprised of any developments in this area. 6) ZAIDAN/COLUMBIA HEIGHTS OFFICE BUILDING CLOSING The property closing and restructuring transaction for the Columbia Heights Office Building located at 39th and Central was completed on Friday. As you recall, the closing transaction involves approval of a tax forfeiture deed from the Department of Revenue, repurchase of the property by Zaldan from the HRA/Anoka County, payment of the non-tax increment delinquent taxes, the initial down payment of back tax increment dollars to the City/I-IRA, and the actual effective change in the tax increment/assessed value agreements. At a later date, I will provide you a written recap of the transaction. 7) CLIFFORD JOHNSON OPEN MIKE FOLLOW UP I previously submitted documents to you concerning Clifford Johnson's relocation benefits. I have been unable to get in touch with Mr. Johnson since the last meeting, but will forward a verbal and written response to his complaints once he recontacts the City. 8) REPORTS AND CORRESPONDENCE Attached please find the following reports and correspondence: a) b) c) d) e) Support for LMC Telecommunications policy in the legislation MN/DOT construction in Anoka County Met Council 1994 Utility Rate Study (City Staff will prepare a co~nparison of the City's rates in conjunction with any further discussion on water/sewer rate changes) Anoka County levy limitation Legislation excluding South St. Paul Police and Fire exclusion from Civil Service employees excluded from Civil Service. 9) WATERMAIN BREAK Last Thursday, a watermain break occurred in the vicinity of 43rd and Pierce. A few residents were upset concerning the length of time it took to repair the watermaln and the amount of time that they were without water. The watermain was repaired by midnight Thursday. The residents were without water the better part of the day. As a matter of practice, we have always notified a person in the residence affected by the watermain break and try to give them an approximation of time that they would be without water. Sometimes we are unsuccessful at the initial contact as the residents are typically not at home or at work. We encourage them to contact the people in the field that are doing the work for a status report. In the future, we will prepare a doorknob notice that can be hung out if we are unsuccessful at contacting them. In this particular case, we had difficulty locating the actual break because of frost conditions and the water tunnel that had rose to the surface. We could not turn the water back on, allowing the residents to fill their toilets because we would likely refill the trench, thus causing further delays in repairs. 95/19 COLUMBIA HEIGHTS PUBLIC LIBRARY II.

The morning session was conducted by Catherine Schendel and was entitled: "Influencing Skills for Individual Impact." Ms. Schendel had a handout which outlined her presentation. She gave specific skills to use in a variety of situations. She also talked about male vs. female communication skills. Her upbeat and personal examples were excellent. She provided some skills I will be able to use in all facets of my work and personal contacts. It also made me aware of how even your good intentions can be misinterpreted by another individual especially if that person is of the opposite gender. The afternoon session was lead by Jacqueline K. Miller and was entitled: "From Ha Ha to Ahh Hah"-utilizing humor to bring out creativity. This session had a very different focus from the morning one. Ms. Miller required active participation by the group. We did this by randomly being selected to be another person's partner and then went through a series of game playing together. Although the first part of the program was met with mixed feelings the second half made you realize what Ms. Miller was trying to accomplish. I felt this workshop was helpful and will enable me to be more productive. .Jeanine M.

Events/Accomplishments mo On February 15, I attended the Highland Elementary School D.A.R.E. graduation. The guest speaker was the new Anoka County Sheriff, Larry Podany. Our officers are getting very good at hosting these presentations and are to be commended for it. Several other guests included Councilman Jolly and Mayor Sturdevant. Bo The Police Department hosted the February monthly landlord meeting which was held the evening of February 22 at Murzyn Hall. Speakers ranged from our City Manager, Pat Hentges, to Captain Lowell DeMars and Firefighter Matt Fields of our Fire Department. The dialogue was very informative and attendance, as well as participation, was high. Future meeting topics are being formulated with various guest speakers to be announced. Co I was invited to read at Highland Elementary School to a third grade class on February 28. The school is promoting reading and utilizing guests for the promotion. It was an experience worth noting. I enjoyed this event as much as the children did. II. Projects/Goals mo For future police department vehicular fleet planning, I met with a representative of Superior Ford on February 23. Several of the police department's full size vehicles were scrutinized for trade capabilities in an effort to downsize the unmarked portion of police vehicles. It has been an issue for quite some time that the large vehicles, when removed from marked patrol service, continue to be used as staff cars when the more economical downsized auto could be incorporated. Results of the study will be in the near future. B° The department remains on schedule with community oriented police programs. Sergeants and officers are well underway interacting, hosting, and promoting citizen and business involvement. Communication and feedback is the beginning to promoting the partnership of police and community against crime. Mayor and Council Members Page 2 March 3, 1995 IH.

Preliminary reports show three businesses failed to date. Bo The department received information of concerned parents lodging inquiries at a past P.T.A. meeting regarding juveniles smoking on and around the public schools before and after school. We continue to patrol these areas and continue to make apprehen- sions when violations are observed.

MAW:jb 95-141 League of Minnesota Cities 3490 Lexington Avenue North St. Paul, MN 55126-8044 February 28, 1995 TO: Mayors, Administrators, Cities in Districts represented by members of the House Reguiated Industries Committee FROM: Ann Higgins, IGR Representative Support for LMC Telecommunications Policy and Legislation Please contact your local legislator, who serves on the House Regulated Industries Committee, to urge support of H.F. 857, the Minnesota Emerging Communications Services Act, legislation to bring cities the benefits of new communications services. bill, which was introduced this past week in the Minnesota House of Representatives,implements '95 LMC telecommunications policy priorities.. The Cities need to encourage lawmakers to make sure local government can improve local access to new information and video services being offered by a growing number of companies, including local and regional telephone companies, cable operators, the electric power industry, and other businesses. H.F. 857 would authorize cities to receive compensation from companies using city rights-of-way to provide private profit-making services. Compensation paid to cities would make it possible to bring about improvements in providing residents access to public (government) information, educational, and cultural programs, etc. designed to meet local needs. This is where your help is needed. The League needs local officials to urge legislators to support legislation (H.F. 857) to make sure that all providers of new communications services other than traditional phone service compensate the city for use of public rights-of-way and make available to the community a portion (capacity or space) of new (non-phone) services and technology. Reservation of capacity will aid communities to meet local information, educational, cultural and other locally identified needs. The bill proposes to allow cities to request compensation of up to 5 percent of gross subscriber revenues within the city or a linear foot charge for use of the right-of-way when the company using that location in the right-of-way does not provide local service to subscribers in the city. AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY/AFFIRMATIVE ACTION EMPLOYER (612) 490-5600 1-800-925-1122 plus your city code TDD (6121490-9038 Fax (612) 490-0072 Telephone companies generally oppose the bill since current law exempts the telephone industry from paying any compensation to cities for using streets or other public property for constructing the local phone system. The League has left that exemption alone. Instead, H.F. 857 would: * allow cities to receive payment from any provider of new communications services (such as video dialtone, inter-active video, home shopping services, movies on demand, home security services, and the like) in recognition of the value of local rights-of-way; * require any company offering such services to obtain a permit and comply with minimum standards for entry in local streets, alleys, easements or public property to construct their local infrastructure; * provide a source of funding for cities to support the development or improvement of public access to information, educationai programming and communication o£ local interest; * require providers of new communications services to set aside a portion of that capacity for such purposes and make it possible for cities to develop a local communications infrastructure to strengthen the community and the local economy. It is critical for cities to play a meaningful and effective role in the development of the new electronic information infrastructure. The 1995 telecommunications policy adopted last November by member cities sets forth cities' objectives: * Cities should have authority to require all providers of new communications services to obtain permits for use of local rights-of-way to lay wire, cable, or other facilities within the city; * The state legislature should support cities' interests in managing local rights-of-way, develop minimum technical and interconnection requirements and regulate rates in the absence of competition; * Telecommunications providers must not discriminate in providing services at the local level; * All providers of new communications services must support local public access and reserve a portion of the capacity on those services to meet information, education, and community needs ~ao~.:~:~ ,,~c....~,~ at the local * Cities should be allowed to receive payment from all providers of new communications services (industry neutral ) for use of public rights-of-way. Contact your local legislator immediately and explain the importance of these issues in providing communities an opportunity to ensure that public benefits and local economic development can be addressed by gaining some measure of return for the private use of the public rights-of-way in your city.

Boyer, General Manager Subject: 1994 Rate Study Since many communities are currently in the process of setting their utility rates for the coming months, MCWS' 1994 study of rates charged by our customer communities may be helpful and timely. A copy has been sent to the finance director or finance officer in your community. If other persons in your community would like copies, please call MWCS' Financial and Administrative Services department, 229-3263. Many communities use the residential rate portion of the study as a benchmark for setting their own rates, but I also encourage you to notice how favorably our rates areawide compare nationally. Since 1986, average Twin Cities area rates have been lower than the national average and are now 26 percent less. That difference helps keep the Twin Cities area economically competitive, while our service helps create an environmentally sustainable future.
