C. Qther Business
1. Leasing of Water Tower Site for Communication Antennas
Copies of the site lease agreement were distributed at the
meeting. It has been reviewed by the City Manager and the
Public Works Director.
Staff feels that the terminology in the most recent lease
agreement protects the City's rights and privileges.
REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING
JULY 22, 1996
PAGE 8
Dave Fisher, from SBA who represents Sprint Spectrum, advised
the Council of the efforts he made with Sprint to meet the
requests of the City regarding annual rent, the escalator and
the renewal terms.
The City Manager mentioned that one sticking point in the
lease agreement was terms of the renewal. He also noted that
the lease allows for the tenant (Sprint) to exit the lease but
does not allow the same option for the City.
Mr. Fisher stated that the whole project is part of an
integral system and that each site owner needs to stay for an
extended period of time to maintain high standards of service
to Sprint's customers.
Councilmember Jones inquired where Spectrum has other sites.
Mr. Fisher responded that the site in Champlin is completed
and is located on the water tower. The cities of Medina and
Prior Lake are near completion and the cities of Plymouth,
Bloomington and St. Paul are being approached about using some
buildings as sites. Also, several sites in Wisconsin are being
considered.
Councilmember Jolly inquired what measures have been taken to
address possible power failures. Sprint has its own power
source and own power meter. If there are any sounds emitting
from the site these can be resolved. It is the hope of the
company to start installation as soon as possible and have the
system up and running by February, 1997.
Councilmember Ruettimann advised that members of the Council
had only received a copy of the latest site lease agreement at
tonight's meeting. He felt it would be very premature to make
any decisions on the lease tonight.
Councilmember Ruettimann observed that there are three
competitors who will be pursuing sites. A total of 1,800 sites
are needed for a system. It was advised that Sprint only needs
200 sites.
Councilmember Ruettimann also noted that this Council is being
requested to commit councils twenty-five years in the future.
He stated there are competitors of Sprint which would not
necessitate adding antennas to the water tower and do not
require long lease terms. He also noticed there was no mention
in the site lease agreement of a bond and no promises to
remove equipment if the company ceased operations.
REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING
JULY 22, 1996
PAGE 9
Other members of the Council stated they were not comfortable
with approving the lease agreement in that it had only been
received. Many of their concerns were with the length of the
terms of the lease.
The City Attorney has reviewed the most recently proposed
lease agreement and feels it protects the City. He also noted
the City of Champlin has negotiated a lease for less than
twenty-five years and for less money.
Motion by Sturdevant, second by Ruettimann to table this item
until the August 12, 1996 City Council Meeting. Roll call: All
ayes
8. ADMINISTRATIVE REPORTS
a. Report of the City Manager
1. Weekly "Green Shee~"~ The City Manager advised he will be
sending members of the City Council a general information
newsletter on a weekly basis. The monthly department reports
submitted by division heads will continue on a quarterly basis
if this meets with the approval of the Council. The City
Manager feels weekly information will better serve members of
the Council in keeping current with what is happening in and
around the City.
2. Property for Sale: On July.23rd, Anoka County will be
requesting bids for the sale of abandoned properties, one of
which is located at 4150 Central Avenue. Commissioner Kordiak
has been contacted regarding this property and the concerns
held by the City about its future. The City Manager requested
direction on this buiilding and the potential for its sale.
Councilmember Ruettimann suggested the sale be made subject to
passing an environmental impact report. Another option
mentioned by Councilmember Ruettimann was to make the sale
subject to the clean-up of any asbestos problems on the
property or in the building.
The City Manager will advise Commissioner Kordiak of the
Council's direction. He had also asked if the Commissioner
could remove this property from the list after bid requests
have been published. The Commissioner will follow up on this
inquiry.

3. Habitat for Humanity Properties/Garages: Councilmember
Jones expressed her concern with the size of the garage built
at the recently-constructed Habitat for Humanity house. Her
observation is that it is too small to accommodate the normal
functions associated with garages. She measured the garage and
it meets the standards of the ordinance, those being 12 feet
by 20 feet. The builder of the garage is being contacted by
the developer for Habitat for Humanity to request
consideration for expanding the forms for the garages on the
remaining houses.
Councilmember Jones requested that the developer and the
contractor for Habitat for Humanity attend a future Council
work session. The Public Works Director noted that the City
Council has review rights.
Councilmember Jones also inquired if siding can be ordered by
the property owners of these newly-constructed homes for any
additions to the homes which made by made in the future. The
City Manager will contact the contractor with this question.
Noting that the measurements of this particular garage meet
ordinance requirements, Councilmember Peterson questioned
whether the ordinance should be amended to increase the size.
4. Executive Session Issue: The City Manager advised there has
been an agreement reached relative to the issue discussed at
the most recent Executive Session. It will be further
discussed.
b. Report of the City Attorney
The City Attorney addressed the matter of the garage sizes
being built with Habitat for Humanity houses. He noted that
City approval must be given of the plans and specifications
for these houses before the permits are issued. He suggested
staff be contacted regarding this matter. He recommended that
the standards for single car garages be reviewed. He also
recalled that the property was sold to Habitat for Humanity
for $1.00 and other considerations. He felt garage size could
be one of those other considerations which can be made by the
Council.

NO: Case ~9608-39, 4116 Quincy street -- DATE: August 8, 199~
The Planning and Zoning Commission reviewed the request of Mr. and Mrs. Javes for
permission to install a seven (7) foot high wood board special purpose privacy fence
along the sides and rear property lines to enclose the entire yard of 4116 Quincy
Street. The reason for the request is to provide privacy around the yard.
Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council approval is required for all privacy
fences which lie in the front and/or to the side of any house and exceed 42 inches
in height. All required signatures of consent from the adjacent property owners
have been obtained.
The Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously recommends approval of the special
purpose privacy fence for 41!6 Quincy Street.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
Move to approve the request for a seven (7) foot high special purpose privacy fence
as requested provided the required property irons have been located and the required
permit is obtained prior to the fence installation.

ITEM: Conditional Use Permit, A~ok Bedi
NO: Case ~9608-41, 4022 Ce~raCkv~e~ue DATE: August 8, 1996
The Planning and Zoning Commission reviewed the request of Ashok Bedi for a
Conditional Use Permit to allow the operation of a deli with seating combined with
a grocery store at 4022 Central Avenue.
Section 9.112(2) (h) of the Central Business District portion of the Zoning Ordinance
requires a Conditional Use Permit for restaurants, cafes, tea rooms, taverns, and
bars provided said design is to only serve customers seated at tables, counters, or
booths.
The proposed site is 52 feet by 99 feet and will be a combination grocery store and
deli which will be called "Sahib's Gateway to India". This owner is currently
operating a grocery store at 4303 Central Avenue. He is interested in expanding
this with a deli. The use will be divided up in half as you can see from the site
plan. The dining area will be located at the front of the store while the grocery
items~ flowers, and dry goods will be in the rear of the store. The kitchen
facilities will be connected through an entrance to the grocery store. A counter
will be located at the front for deli customers where nine tables will also be
provided for approximately 33 seats. The kitchen equipment and placement are also
detailed on the site plan.
This business location, as the others on the block, are adjacent to the Columbia
Heights parking ramp. Businesses along this block have been assessed for the
construction of this ramp, thus, any off-street parking needs can utilize the
Municipal lot. Customers may also use available street parking while visiting the
grocery/deli.
Mr. Bedi is aware that approval from the Anoka County Health Department is required
before the business license will be granted and the business allowed to open. As
of this date, he has not yet submitted his plans to the Health Department and this
is a must before any licenses can be issued.
The Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously recommend approval of the Conditional
Use Permit as requested for 4022 Central Avenue provided approval is granted by the
Anoka County Health Department and the site is in compliance with all building and
fire codes.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
Move to approve the Conditional Use Permit to allow the operation of a 33 seat
deli/restaurant in combination with grocery sales at 4022 Central Avenue as both
uses are in compliance with the Zoning Ordinance provided approval is granted by the
Anoka County Health Department, the Building and Fire Inspectors.

NO: ~ CITY MANAGER APPROVAL., f/~
NO: MANAGER ~, A ' DATE: 7-24-96 . . '
Each year, the National Association of Telecommunications Officers and Advisors holds a
national conference. The conference provides an opportunity to learn more about cable
regulation, legislation, technology, protection of the public rights-of-way, municipal
programming and franchise administration. This conference is particularly timely due to the
passage of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 and subsequent FCC rules and regulations, and
the ever changing legislative environment surrounding telecommunications.
Monies are budgeted for this conference in the cable budget.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to authorize the attendance of Linda Magee, Assistant to the City
Manager, at the National Association of Telecommunications Officers and Advisors Conference
to be held in Palm Beach, Florida, from September 8-11, 1996, and that all related expenses
be reimbursed from Funds 225-49844-3105 and 225-49844-3320.

ITEM: Taxicab Driver License Denial__ ~ BY: Kathrp~ Pepin }~- BY: ~' ~'~S
NO: , ·--'~ / DATE: August !2, 1996
The Police Department has reviewed the application submitted by William Elmer Floyd
on June 14, 1996 for a license ~o drive a taxicab within !~he City of Columbia
Heights for Suburban Taxi Corporation. During investigation of Mr. Floyd's driving
record by the Police Department, it was found that Mr. Floyd had falsified his
application answering "no" to the question "Have you ever had any driving
violations?" and "Have you ever been convicted of a crime or misdemeanor?".
The Police Department has :found that Mr. Floyd has tags and arrests on his driving
record, three of which are misdemeanors.
A letter was mailed to Mr. Floyd on June 25, 1996 informing him of the
recommendation of denial and notifying him of the City Council meeting date. A copy
of that letter was also mailed to his employer, Suburban Taxi Corporation, to the
attention of Michael Waidmann, the general manager. On June 28, 1996 the letter
mailed to Mr. Floyd at the address stated on his application was returned by the
post office indicating ~hat Hr. Floyd was no longer at that address and no
forwarding address was on file~ I then attempted to contact Mr. Floyd at the
telephone number on his application and that number has been disconnected.
On July 3, 1996 I was able to contact Mr. Waidmann at Suburban Taxi Corp. to verify
that he had received my letter regarding Mr. Floyd and informed him that Mr. Floyd
no longer resided at the address stated on the license application. He stated that
he would attempt to reach Mr. Floyd and have him contact my office.
Section 5.104{3) of the License Ordinance states: "Nondisciosure, misrepresenEation
or misstatement of a material fact in any application for a license under this
chapter shall be a prima facie showing of cause for revocation, suspension, or such
other action restricting the privileges of ,~ licensee as the City Council may
determine"
Due to the fact that Mr. Floyd has falsified information on his license application
and does, in fact, have items of concern on his record, and now has an i. nvaiid
drivers license due to an inaccurate address, Staff recommends denial of the taxicab
driver license.
At ~he City Council meeting of July 8, 1996, the City Council reviewed the City
Council letter from the License Clerk based upon the recommendation of the Police
Department regarding the denial of the application by William Elmer Floyd for a
license 2e drive a taxicab vehicle within the City ef Columbia Heights. The City
Council gave Mr. Floyd thirty days to complete a new application reflecting his new
address and the correct information. Mr. Floyd was contacted, through his employer,
by the Police Chief and given this information. As ef this date, Mr. Floyd has not
submitted a new application, nor has he made any effort to contact Staff regarding
~his problem.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
Move to deny the license application of William Elmer Floyd for a taxicab driver
license based on the findings of the Police Department.

NO:
iTEM: Zoning Ordinance Amendment BY: Tina Goodroa BY: ~
NO: Ordinance #1329 ~ . DATE: August 8, 1996
The Planning and Zoning Commission reviewed the attached ordinance amendment number
1329 to the Conditional Use Portion of the Retail Business Section that would allow
vehicle sales, not to exceed two <2) ton, in conjunction with only automobile repair
businesses which do not sell fuel.
The proposed ordinance was discussed at Two work sessions when re~uiremen5s for
use were determined. The Planning Commission reviewed Uhe original six requirements
and proposes to remove number 5wo which reads (shown on page marked "draft"):
Vehicles for sale must be iocaEed at the fron5 of the lot ~side in which the front
of the building faces) and visible from the streeE. The reason for ~his is concern
for enforcement and if we restrict areas that cars can be dispiayed, would this be
enforced.
The Commission also believes businesses would not benefit from displaying cars
behind a building, so this issue may not even come up. The Commission did not find
any o5her problem with uhe o~her five requirements and unanimously recommend
forwarding Ordinance ~1329 ~o the City Council for 5he first reading. A public
hearing has been published on August 2, 1996 in sufficien5 time for the first
reading.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to waive the reading of the ordinance, there being ample
copies available to the public.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to schedule the second reading of Ordinance I329, an
Ordinance amending Section 9.113(2)(k) of Ordinance No. 853, City Code of 1977, for August

Revocation of the license to operate a rental unit(s) within the City of Columbia Heights is requested
against Bette Scott regarding her rental property at 4518 Monroe Street NE. Ms. Scott has lost this

because of a six month redemption period on the foreclosure, their hands are tied and they cannot take
any actions.
I am recommending that the license, which is approximately 60 days past due, be revoked so we may
take necessary, actions to correct the problems associ~_ed-w~property.

For the July 8, 1996, City Council meeting staff had prepared a Council letter and a motion
designating First Lutheran Church at 1555 40th Avenue N.E. as the official election polling place
for Precinct 5 for future city, county, and federal elections. This motion was unanimously passed
by the City Council.
However, in retrospect, this action should not have been done by motion as the precincts were
originally adopted by a resolution. Subsequently, staff has prepared the attached resolution
changing the location of precinct #5.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to waive the reading of Resolution 96-53, there being ample

CITY MANAGER
The existing sanitary sewer line is 8" Cast Iron Pipe. The line was installed in 1960 at a depth of 4', only several ~/~et from the lake.
Over the years the inside of the pipe has developed a very. rough surfhce that solids and paper tend to stick to, increasing the fi~equency
of back-ups. Several back-ups on this line have overflowed into the lake.
The sanitary., sewer line was televised by staff. The pipe is structurally sound and the joints are aligned. Staff feels groundwater
infiltration into the pipe is significantly increasing pumping costs at the nearby lift station.
Three sanitary,, manholes in this line are conslructed with block. Root and groundwater infiltration into these manholes is a problem.
Staff proposes to have the existing pipe lined with a thin flexible pipe. The liner becomes rigid as it bonds to the existing pipe through a
chemical process. The existing manholes will be rehabilitated by installing a liner. Funds are budgeted in 652-49499-5 t 30 tbr this
prqject.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to authorize staff to seek bids to line the sanitary, sewer pipe and manholes along Silver Lake from
beach to boat landing.

ITEM: APPROVAL OF WATER ~ CLEAN~G BY: M. Winson BY:
NO. SERVICE WITH H.E.R.C. ~ _, DA~: 8/5/96 . DATE:
Residents in the area of Innsbruck Parkway West and Innsbruck Parkway have been experiencing "red water" and low pressure for a
number of years. A line loop was installed in 1991 to alleviate the problem. This provided a partial solution but problems still remain
due to tuberculation in the water main. Tuberculation is caused by "iron bacteria" that causes a build-up of oxidized iron within the line.
A recently removed section of this tine indicates that more than 40% of the interior is closed off by tuberculation.
Staff has researched a number of methods to alleviate this condition. The methods include line replacement, "pigging" or mechanical
cleaning of the line with a new cement grout lining and a relatively new method called "Pipe-Klean" by H.E.R.C. "Pipe-Klean" involves
circulation, under controlled conditions, of a proprietary acid solution tailored for the condition of the line to be cleaned. This process is
not only less expensive than other methods but there is also far less disturbance to the residents. Both line replacement and mechanical
cleaning require significant excavation and replacement of pavement resulting in the process taking any where from two weeks to two
months. The "Pipe-Klean" system can be accomplished in less than 24 hours per line section with minimal excavation.
Staff has checked with several water systems that have tried this process and all have reported acceptable results.
H.E.R.C. has prepared a proposal to clean 2,476 feet of 6" pipe for $44,403 or $17.93/foot. Staff has not solicited bids for this work as
the process is proprietary. For comparison, replacement of the line including pavement repairs is $43/foot and mechanical cleaning with
grouting is $29/foot.
Although with the "Pipe-Klean" system, each section could be cleaned and returned to service in less than 24 hours, staff feels that a
temporary water system be installed in case something unforeseen should happen to lengthen the time that homes would be without
water. H.E.R.C. has supplied the City with unit prices to install a temporary water system. Based on these unit prices, staff estimates
the cost for the temporary system at $13,000.
Should the Council approve this contract with H.E.R.C., the temporary water system would be installed late the week of August 19-23
and the water main cleaning would be done the week of August 26-29.
Staff estimates that the total contract with H.E.R.C. would not exceed $57,500. Additionally, there will be an approximately $2,500
charge by the City of Minneapolis to chlorinate the cleaned lines before the line goes back in service. The total estimated

contracted cost would be $60,000. The 1996 budget includes $15,000 for water main cleaning. Staff feels that the budgeted replacement
of the master meter can be delayed for a year or more, freeing up $45,000 in funds budgeted for 1996.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to accept the proposal from H.E.R.C. of Phoenix, Arizona, for the cleaning of 2,476 feet of 6"
water main and provision of a temporary water system for a cost not to exceed $57,500; and, furthermore to authorize the Mayor and
City Manager to enter into an agreement for the same, funding to be from Fund 651-49449-5130.

Dear Mr. McClanahan:
Attached you will find descriptive info~ofl on the temperary pipe system that we use at
Herc when providing temporary water services as part cC our Pipe*Klean® watedi~
cleaning project. Additionally w~ are also officially providing to you this brief letter
p~poeal to perform the installation of the~e temporary lines as part of our ex~sting offering
The cost associat~ with having Hem install, maintain and remove the temporary lines
would be as follows:

ITEM: ~JECT BIDS FOR 1996 ZO~ 1 BY: M. Winson BY:
NO. ST=ET ~BILITATION PRO,CT ~) ~. ~ DATE: 8,5,96
Bids were opened for the 1996 Street Rehabilitation Project on August 2nd. Plans and specifications were requested by 11 firms, 9 of
which would be considered prime contractors.
Four bids were received. The Iow bid was submitted by Midwest Asphalt at $684,432.85. This bid is higher than the single bid of
$649,882.95 submitted by Midwest Asphalt at the initial bid opening on May 17th.
Without raising assessments, an additional $202,399 in City funding would be needed. This would be $29,029 from the Sewer
Construction Fund, $9,714 from the Water Construction Fund and $163,656 additional from the Infrastructure Fund. Based on this bid,
the following is a breakdown of where funding would come from:
Assessments (streets)
Assessments (water services)
Sewer Fund
Water Fund (water service)
Water Fund (water main)
Infrastructure Fund
$336,869
$ 16,000
$ 40,029 (storm sewer and sanitary sewer)
$ 6,504
$ 3,210
$281,821
$684,433
In analyzing the bids, the total for street related items dropped $35,500 as a result of the changes that were made in the specifications.
Although quantities were reduced for concrete related items, the overall cost rose $60,600. This apparently reflects that concrete
subcontractors feel they have more than enough work to get through this season. Example: Concrete curb and gutter, usual price $7-
8/foot, bid $20/foot.
Staff feels that the high costs shown in all the bids received indicates that contractors still have plenty of work for the rest of the year.
Staff is recommending that all bids be rejected as they exceed the available funding. Staff further recommends that the work for Zone 1
be bid with the Zone 2 work next spring. The street crew would do remedial patching and repairs on the Zone 1 streets this fall that
were to be rehabilitated in order to get them through the winter.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to reject all bids submitted for the August 2nd bid opening for the 1996 Street Rehabilitation Zone
1 Project, as all bids exceeded the available funding.

On Monday, April 8, 1998 the 1986 Ford Ambulance

compartment, fume odor and a rough running engine.
was brought to
in the engine
Upon inspection the exhaust manifold was found to have a slight
leak at the rear of the right manifold. The rear bolt is broken
and will take considerable expense to repair. The Cylinder head
must be removed to get the manifold off and there will be other
expenses such as air tubes, etc. when the job would be done.
I talked to Miner Ford and they estimated that it would be $600
to repair the manifold if there was no problems, such as the
broken bolt in our engine. At that point Miner Ford said there
would be considerably more expense as the engine would have to be
torn down to get the manifold off and remove the broken bolt.
I attempted to drill and remove the bolt with no success. I did
seal the leak with some exhaust sealer and it appears to be very
minimal at this time. I also found the valve cover bolts on the
right valve cover to be very loose, which were tightened. This
would account for the fume odor.
This vehicle has been a maintenance problem from the day we
received it as can be seen from the attached vehicle history~Jt
report. Presently there are 64358 miles and 6239 hours on the~
m~it. The hours would represent 187,170 miles if the unit was
driven at 30 mph for each hour the engine has been run. There
are obviously a lot of idling hours on the unit, which accounts
for all the cooling system problems we have had over the years.
I would suggest you consider replacing this unit as soon as
possible, due to the history and usage this vehicle has received.
It would also help if excessive idling could be avoided on calls,
drills etc. I do not feel we can justify putting the money into
this unit to make everything perfect. From the enclosed records
it can be seen that cooling, electrical and fuel systems
maintenance are the major problems with this unit. The alcohol
in todays fuels also contributes to the drivabi!ity problems we
are encountering, this fuel does not function properly in the hot
enviorment this engine runs in.
If you have any further questions feel free to contact me.

Attached is a contract that will be entered by and between the City of Columbia Heights and
Kevin Stark for the demolition of 537 - 38th Avenue N.E. This structure was recently
destroyed by fire and the structure and land has reverted back to the Department of Housing
and Urban Development (HUD). The remains need to be demolished and removed as soon as
possible. The process HUD normally follows when a building needs to be demolished is
requesting the City to hire a contractor of our choice, pay for the work, and certify the
cost to the taxes for this property. HUD plans on marketing to sell this property as soon
as possible. Once sold, the assessments for this work will be paid. HUD will not pay for
seeding of the lot, however, this amount is only expected to be approximately $200.
The Building Inspector received a verbal bid for removal of the house, garage and
foundation, concrete private walks and driveway. Backfill and final grading will also be
completed. The bid submitted by Kevin Stark is for $4,645.00. This was the only verbal
bid received thus far. Payment will be made from 201-46310-3050 which will be reimbursed
from HUD when funds are received. If the City Council chooses not to award this contract,
HUD would take care of the demolition, however it would not be by a contractor of our
choice.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to award the demolition contract for 537 38th Avenue N.E.
to K. A. Stark Excavating, Inc., with funds to be appropriated from 201-46310-3050; and,
furthermore to authorize and Mayor and City Manager to enter into an agreement for the same.

Here are the most recent changes that we discussed on Friday 8/9/96. I have
left a copy of the mewly revised redline as well as a clean copy and a copy ready

requested were made.
Here are the changes that were made:
P.2 # 2 Clause B,-Time of Paymen:, Taxes- Monthly Rent was changed to annual rent.
P.3 # 4 Term & Renewals- We changed the word "and" to "or" , so the ci=y's rent will
commence whether (A.) or (B.) happens rather ~han both of them needing to happen.
We also added "either" to "being the "effective Date". This should further ~pecify
exac~Iy when rent is to commence.

changed from 90 days to 180 days.
If you have any questions regarding any of the changes please feel free to call me.

Landlord;
Public safety agencies, including law enforcement, fire, and ambulance
services, that are not part of the Landlord;
Other governmental agencies where use is not related to public safety; and
Government-regulated entities whose antennae offer a service to thc
general public for a fee, in a marz,.er similar to a public utility, such as
long distance and cellular telephone, not including radio or television
broadcasters.
(b) Purpos_e_s. Tenant shall use the Leased Premises only for the purpose of installing,
maintaining, and operating a communications antenna facility, equipment, cabinets and an
accessory building, and uses incidental thereto for providing radio and wireless
telecommunication services which T~nant is legally authorized to provide to the public. Tenant

antennas in accordance with its submitted application attached as Exhibit B. If Tenant wishes to
install additional antennas so that the number of antennas will exceed 12, it must first pay for an
evaluation carried out by a qualified professional, retained by Landlord demonstrating that
each additional antenna will not interfere with existing antennas or with proposed antennas with
a hi~her priority and. that (ii) any Structure can structurally support the additional antennas. The
cost of each evaluatbn must be paid by the Tenant within 30 days a~ receiving written notice
JUL- 19-1996 17:14 SBA,
,.Name: Columbia Heigilt~ Wa:er Towcr ~ite I.D.: :'VIS03XCII3V1
of the cost. Landlord must consent to installation of additional antennas, but such consent will
not be withheld if the evaluation indicates the additional antennas will not cause interference to
higher priority users and that the Structure can support the additional antennas. ~f Landlord
consents, the parties will negotiate the amount of additional rental for the antennas.
(d) Qp...eration. Tenant shall have the right, at its sole cost and expense, to operate and
maintain the Antenna Facilities on the Leased Premises in accordance with good engineering

A. PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER CHANGE IN MCTO ROUTE 10
The City was contacted by Metropolitan Council Transit Operations (MCTO) concerning a
change in Route I0. The City Council directed the Traffic Commission to hold a public
hearing to receive the input of the residents. All property owners in the area bounded by
37th Avenue to 42nd Avenue N.E. from Main Street to Central Avenue and on 44th Avenue
from University Avenue to Central Avenue were notified of the hearing. Approximately 32
residents were in attendance of the hearing. MCTO was represented by transit planners Steve
Mahowold and Adam Harrington to present the proposed plan and answer questions.
Proposed changes for Route 10 would add east bound bus traffic on 44th Avenue and
eliminate stops on the University Avenue Service Road and on 40th Avenue. Route 18
would continue to serve 40th Avenue. The change would double the number of buses on
44th Avenue and reduce the number of buses on 40th Avenue. Mr. Mahowold stated the
reason for the proposed change is to eliminate passenger confusion regarding the layover of
the 10C buses and confusion regarding where to board the bus at 40th and Central
intersection.
Resident concerns were voiced regarding increased bus traffic on two-lane 44th Avenue,
along with the fact that there are no sidewalks on 44th Avenue, creating a hazard for bus
passengers waiting for and going to and from the bus. They noted that 40th Avenue has
sidewalks and is a four-lane street. Other residents noted they would have to walk several
more blocks during evening hours, which caused them concern about their safety and
inconvenience. Current bus riders present indicated Route #t8 offers limited service on
weekends and holidays; in addition, the downtown route takes 15 minutes longer than the
#10. Riders indicated they would like to see more frequent service on Route t 8, especially
on weekends and holidays. Some residents indicated the proposed change would create a
severe hardship for them to get to their jobs.

Commissioner Duda reflectedthe 10C loop route has been in existence for many, many years
and seems to have worked well for the area. Council member Meg Jones inquired if
Columbia Heights residents were complaining about the current Rome 10 service. Mr.
Mahowold responded that yes, residents complained about the confusion of the layovers and
where to board the bus at 40th and Central intersection. There were several suggestions to
have the drivers announce the intended layover to passengers at pickup point or to have a
sign at the bus entrance.
Motion by Carlson, second by Duda, to recommend to the MCTO that no changes be made
in Route 10. Roll Call: All ayes.
REQUEST FOR STOP SIGNS AT THE INTERSECTION OF 43RD AVENUE AND 7TH
STREET
Ms. Jennifer Bailey was present to discuss her request for a stop sign at this intersection.
This intersection is uncontrolled, with fair visibility. Ms. Bailey stated her concern with the
speed of traffic and noise created by cars speeding across the dip in the road on 43rd Avenue
and also her concern about vehicle and pedestrian safety. Records indicate only one reported
accident at this intersection. Resident Elaine Jahn noted visible damage to the street by cars
"bottoming out" and vehicle pans left behind.
Commission members indicated their desire to inc,:ease signage at this intersection without
installation of stop signs and suggested Engineering look into the options and report back to
the Commission at the next meeting. Motion by Goodman, second by Sturdevant, to table
this item. Roll Call: All ayes.
REQUEST TO ELIMINATE PARKING ON ONE SIDE OF 47TH AVENUE FROM 5TH
STREET TO 6TH STREET
Mr. Mark Paul requested parking be eliminated on one side of 47th Avenue from 5th Street
to 6th Street as this street is narrower than the typical residential street in Columbia Heights
and is too narrow to have parking on both sides. Concern exists for emergency vehicle
aCCeSS.
Motion by Sturdevant, second by Duda, to call for a public hearing on this item. Roll Call:
All ayes.
REQUEST TO INSTALL STOP SIGNS AT THE INTERSECTION OF QUINCY STREET
AND 43RD AVENUE
This recurring issue has surfaced again as a result of another accident at this intersection.
Chief Johnson presented accident statistics for the period 1993 to the present. Accidents in
1996 increased, but several were apparently due to road conditions. Commissioner Jolly
stated his preference for a yield sign, rather than a stop sign, and that the signage be placed
on Quincy Street. Other members were in agreement.
Motion by Goodman, second by Duda, to call for a public hearing to install yield signage
on Quincy Street at 43rd Avenue. Roll call: All ayes.

have been installed on 37th Avenue.
School bus tums onto north bound Tyler Street and Polk Street from east bound 37th

a Iotsptit of the property located at 957 N.E. 42nd Avenue legally described as the east one-half of Lot 34, Block
3, Reservoir Hills, Anoka County, Minnesota; subject to easement to the City of Columbia Heights over the north
30 feet. The proposed Iotsplit would split the north 55' x 135' portion of the existing lot to make the north portion
viabte for single family construction.
Ms. Goodroad referred to a copy of the survey enclosed in the agenda packet indicating the proposed Iotsptit line
to create two legal and conforming lots for single family construction. She stated that the south tot would measure
55 x 145 feet for a total of 7,975 square feet and the north lot would measure 55 x 135 feet for a total of 7,425
square feet. Under the R-2 Zoning District, a 60 foot lot width would be required along with a total lot area of
6,500 square feet for single family construction. Ms. Goodroad explained that under Section 9.407(2) of the
Lotsplit Section of the Zoning Ordinance, this newly created tot would meet the requirement for lot width using the
90% calculation. She stated that both lots would be limited to single family construction as a two family dwelting
would require a minimum of 8,400 square feet of lot area.
The public hearing was opened by Chairperson Szurek. No one was present to speak regarding this case.
The public hearing was closed by Chairperson Szurek.
MOTION by Peterson, seconded by Fowler, to recommend to the City Council the approval of the request for a
lotsptit of the property located at 957 N.E. 42nd Avenue as all requirements of the Iotsplit ordinance are in
compliance. Roll Call: All Ayes. Motion carried.

Ms. Goodroad presented the request of Mr. Jim Disbrow of BW-3 for site plan review and approval for a 37' x 40'
patio area off of the front of the building located at 4811 Central Avenue. She reminded the Commission that this
item was discussed at the time the Conditional Use Permit and the original site plan were reviewed and approved.

She stated that the patio area would be at the front of the building where the cooler is located. There is one
entrance proposed from the building into the patio and only one emergency exit out of the patio as indicated on
the plans. The Fire Department also reviewed the plans and are requiring two exits for the patio to meet Fire Code.
This patio area will be enclosing an open green area in front and would abut the front driveway but will not
eliminate the drive area or disrupt traffic flow. The exterior seating that is planned for the outdoor area would be
eight four-person tables and five two-person tables. Ms. Goodroad informed the Commission that the parking
required by these additional seats has been accounted for and approved on the original site plan.
Ms. Goodroad stated that, during the original site plan review, the Planning and Zoning Commission discussed
requirements for this patio including fencing around the exterior of the patio, access permitted only from the interior
restaurant, and outdoor seating allowed only seasonally. She informed the Commission that the Police Chief, Tom
Johnson, submitted his concerns regarding the outdoor seating area to the Commission in writing after the meeting.
He outlined three issues regarding this proposal. First, he would like
around the patio to prevent the passing of beverages to the outside.
an eight (8) foot high fence. Ms. Goodroad stated that the building
compared to the roof line and determined that a ten foot fence would

The plans submitted by BW-3 indicate only
inspector checked the ten foot fence height
be at or a little above the roof line and could
be considered unsightly. A six to eight foot high fence, either wood or wrought iron with separations of no more
than 314 inch between fence parts would control the passing of beverages.
Ms. Goodroad also informed the Commission that Chief Johnson also suggested limiting the hours of operation for
this area to 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. in order to comply with the State Statute on creating a public nuisance. He
also recommended that no music, either live or mechanical, be allowed in the outside patio area. The concern is
over how easily noise travels and there are residences to the east of this building.
She also indicated that Chief Johnson would also like to see an agreement between BW-3 and the Police
Department that if there would be two complaints of toud noise andlor disturbances created by this outdoor patio
area in any given night and that when an officer arrives on the scene and verifies that the area is indeed creating
a loud noise and/or disturbance, BW-3 will close the patio area upon notification from the officer that the area is
loud and/or creating a disturbance.
The final item of concern to Chief Johnson is that he would like to see an egress from the patio area which is
indicated on the drawing. However, this egress would be for emergencies only. Ms. Goodroad explained that the
indoor entrance is the only way customers would be able to access the patio area.
Ms. Goodroad stated that since the concept of the patio was approved with the original site plan, Staff would
recommend approval with the recommendation that the Planning and Zoning Commission discuss the issues raised
by Police Chief Johnson regarding the height and type of fence, hours of operation, and how disturbances will be
handled. All of these concerns should be addressed with the approval of the site plan.

ChairPerson Szurek opened the public hearing. Mr. Jim Disbrow was present to speak on behalf of the restaurant
as the owner. He stated that he did not have a problem with the requirements outlined by the Fire Department
but had hoped to be able to work out a compromise as far as the height of the fence and the hours of operation
of the patio area. He informed the Commission that he was working with an architect on a desion for the patio
area using cedar materials and the aesthetics of the front of the building to make it more aesthetically pleasing.
He was not sure if the patio would be implemented yet this year or if they would wait until spring. If and when
the drawings were completed by the architect, he stated that he would bring them back for additional review and
comment. He did request that the hours of operation be allowed until 12:00 a.m. in order to avoid asking patrons
to leave the patio area at 10:00 p.m. and possibly loose a customer by creating bad feelings.
Commissioner Larson felt the eight foot high screening proposed would be of sufficient height for the patio area.
He was not in favor of limitin9 the hours of operation to 10:00 p.m. It was his contention that the City should
not place a limitation on the hours of operation when there have not been any problems. He felt, that the City and
OW-3 should have an aoreement regarding complaints, and if they become excessive, then place restrictions on the
operation or have the time of operation revert to the 10:00 p.m. closin9 of the area. He stated that the heioht
of the fence and the building would act as a buffer to any noise eminating from the patio area.
Commissioner Paulson inquired as to how the noise levels would be measured. Staff indicated that the Police
Department utilized a particular meter to take decibal readings and the Zoning Ordinance restricted the noise levels
during certain times of day. Mr. Disbrow requested a letter from the City that he could have on hand at the
restaurant indicating the times of day certain decibal levels are acceptable.
MOTION by Larson, seconded by Peterson, to approve the site plan for the BW-3 Bar and Grill at 4811 Central
Avenue to allow the operation of a 37' x 40' enclosed patio area on the front of the building provided the fence
be a minimum of eight feet in height, the hours of operation be between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 12:00 a.m.,
the second egress is added to the patio area, the sound levels not exceed those as defined by the existing Zoning
Ordinance, and that an agreement is prepared between the restaurant and the Police Chief as described in a memo
from Chief Tom Johnson regarding noise violations. Roll Call: All Ayes. Motion passes.

Ms. Goodroad presented the request of Mr. Ashok Bedi for a Conditional Use Permit to operate a deli with seating
combined with a grocery store at 4022 Central Avenue. She informed the Commission that the site measures 52
feet by 99 feet and would be a combination grocery store and deli. The owner is currently located at 4303 Central
Avenue where he operates a grocery store. The proposed location would be divided in half as indicated on the site
plan. The dining area with nine tables providing approximately 33 seats and a counter to serve the deli would be
located at the front of the store while the grocery items, flowers and dry goods would be located at the rear of
the store. The kitchen facilities would be connected through an entrance to the grocery area. The kitchen

Ms. Goodroad stated that this business is adjacent to the Columbia Heights parking ramp. She explained that
businesses along this block have been assessed for the construction of this ramp, thus, any off-street parking needs
can utilize the municipal lot. She indicated that customers could also use available on-street parking while visiting
the grocery/deli.
Ms. Goodroad emphasized the necessity for the approval of the Anoka County Health Department of the plans for
the deli operation before the business can open.

Appeal
Case #9608-042
Wagamon Bros.
3707 N.E. 3rd Street
Columbia Heights, Mn.
Ms. Goodroad presented the request of Wagamon Bros. for an appeal of an administrative decision by the Zoning
Department to require screening along the property line facing 3rd Street. She explained that this issue of
screening came up during the site plan review of their expansion. A six foot high chain link fence was installed
last summer without any filter strips added to the areas of the fence within 300 feet of residential zoning. The
company installed the fence for security reasons to eliminate thefts that had previously taken place and have now
been reduced by the addition of the fence.
Ms. Goodroad stated that the appeal is based on their belief that providing the partial screening (50% opaque) would
block the view to the lot of the Police Department no longer giving the police the visibility during a drive by and
assist in the prevention of theft and vandalism.
Ms. Goodroad explained that, after visiting the site and studying the language in the Zoning Ordinance, staff believes
that it may be difficult to enforce the screening requirement at this site. The reason for this lies in the last

sentence of Section 9.117(3)(b) which reads "Such screening shall not be required for the front of such business
or industrial use." This business address is off of 3rd Street which is regarded as the front. The buildings also
have a "front" appearance on the 3rd Street side. She stated that there is fencing along the sides of the building
which enclose vehicles. However, the Zoning Ordinance reads front, not front yard, so the front yard screening
cannot be enforced either. She explained that she was bringing this to'the Commission as the 3rd Street side is
the only side facing residential properties or within 300 feet of residential uses as required by the Ordinance. The
side along 37th Avenue faces residential, however, it is the City of Minneapolis on that side, and was unsure if
the City of Columbia Heights could enforce the screening requirement.
Ms. Goodroad expressed her belief that City Staff and the Commissioners want a screening ordinance that would
be effective for screening cars, storage, etc. She felt that this section was not written in such a way to be
effective enough. She stated that the screening requirement pertains only when the use is within 300 feet of a
residential use and felt that the City should also want screening for the benefit of other businesses and the
community as a whole. She also felt that the language "front" is not clearly defined and effective in the
Zoning Ordinance. The front of the building may not need screening, but many front yards do need screening. She
felt that this code does not work as it is written and suggested that the Commissioners discuss how that section
can be rewritten so that the goal of adequate screening can be achieved.
Commissioner Szurek opened the public hearing. Robert Ruettiman, representing Wagamon Bros, was present to
speak on behalf of the owners presenting a list of ten names/signatures from adjacent residents stating they have
no objections to the lack of screening being provided at 3707 N.E. 3rd Street. He explained that slats placed in
the existing chain link fence will give thiefs more area to hide and they would also hinder the visibility of the Police
Department when driving through the area. He informed the Commission that only wood, plastic or vinyl slats are
available and that the wood slats are very unattractive, the vinyl and plastic fade and break up and look poor.
These slats cost approximately 82.00 per slat. He agreed that the ordinance for screening should be studied and
rewritten to better serve the needs of the City and the residents.
Ms. Goodroad stated that no telephone calls, questions, inquiries or complaints had been received regarding this
case,
ChairPerson Szurek closed the public hearing.
It was the concensus of the Commission members that Staff rewrite the screening section of the Zoning Ordinance
and make a presentation to the Commission in the near future.
MOTION by Larson, seconded by Fowler, to grant the appeal as the language in Section 9.117(3)(b) of the Zoning
Ordinance is not effective in enforcing the screening requirements for this specific case. Roll Call: All Ayes.

Public Hearing
Zoning Ordinance Amendment
Case #9608-43
City of Columbia Heights
590 N.E. 40th Avenue
Columbia Heights, Mn.
Ms. Goodroad presented an amendment to the Conditional Use Permit section of the Retail Business Section of the
Zoning Ordinance that would allow vehicle sales, not to exceed two (2) ton, in conjunction with only automobile
repair businesses which do not sell fuel provided the six listed requirements are met. This would amend the current
language which required car sale lots to have three acres or more.
Ms. Goodroad explained that this issue and request for the amendment was raised to staff by Mr. Jim Eng, owner
of the 30 Minute Muffler Store at 5101 University Avenue. Mr. Eng has been in business for just over one year
at this location and has done substantial clean-up and repair of the building and grounds. She reminded the
Commission that a Conditional Use Permit was approved for his muffler business and the U-Haul rental operation
and he has completed all requirements that had been stipulated for these uses. She informed the Commission that
Mr. Eng has been struggling the last few months with getting enough business. Mr. Eng's business has been helped
by muffler repair on used cars before they are sold, but, general sales/customers are down. Mr. Eng is requesting
permission to sell used cars, on a limited basis at this location.
Ms. Goodroad explained that she had previously taken this request to the City Council at a work session to gauge
the City Council's feetings on this request before pursuing the amendment. During the discussions, several
restrictions were determined that would limit the use and provide the City with a measure of control. The
restrictions include limiting the car sales use to automobile repair businesses which do not sell fuel. This would
eliminate requests for car sales in any vacant lot or other type of vacant building. It would also prevent gas
stations from selling cars and keeps the car sales with a similar use, as the repair, instead of having "stand alone"
sales lots. She stated that required parking spaces for the primary use could not be eliminated. Ail cars must be
located at the front of the lot for security purposes. This requirement would eliminate several auto repair
businesses who might be interested but simply do not have adequate space for display of cars or for increased
traffic flow. She stated that signage would be limited to the interior of the car and all required state and local
licenses must be obtained. The amendment would also limit the number of cars to no more than ten (10) at any
one time on the lot. She felt that this would maintain some control over the lots. Ms. Goodroad stated that at
the time of reviewing the Conditional Use Permit, traffic flow, lighting, striping of the lot, etc. would be reviewed
before an approval is granted.
Ms. Goodroad informed the Commission that, at the request of the City Council, she checked to see how many
businesses could potentially take advantage of this amendment at this time at their current sites. With all
restrictions in mind, she stated only three current locations could be a potential sales site:
1. Auto Max at 4501 Central has twenty parking spaces available where six spaces would be required.

2. Wallace Automotive at 4807 University Avenue has seven parking spaces provided with the possibility of

a non-conforming operation as major auto repair is being conducted where only minor repair is allowed.
3. The 30 Minute Muffler Shop at 5101 University Avenue has 24 parking spaces provided with space for an
additional 16 spaces. Nine spaces are required for the use.
After reviewing the information provided and the proposed restrictions, the City Council suggested to proceed with
bringing the amendment before the Planning and Zoning Commission. Ms. Goodroad stated that the RB, Retail
Zoning District, is similar to the district in which other cities allow this type of use. She informed the Commission
that 5101 University Avenue is located in the RB District.
Commissioner Szurek opened the public hearing. No one was present to speak regarding this item.
Commissioner Szurek closed the public hearing.
Discussion was held regarding item #2 requiring any vehicles for sale to be located at the front or side of the lot
(side in which the front of the building faces) and that they be visible from the street. Council Representative
Peterson questioned why we would make this requirement and asked who would enforce such an item. He felt
that it would be unenforceable. Ms. Goodroad informed the Commission that the City Council felt this was
important for security purposes and so that the operator of the business would be able to see when someone was
inside the lot looking at a vehicle. It was the concensus of the Commission that Item #2 of the requirements
should be eliminated from the list.
MOTION by Larson, seconded by Fowler, to approve Ordinance #1329 amending Section 9.113(2)(k) the Conditional
Use Section of the Retail Business Section of the Zoning Ordinance to allow vehicle sales, not to exceed two (2)
ton, in conjunction with only automobile repair businesses which do not sell fuel provided the five listed requirements
are met. Roll Call: All Ayes. Motion Carried.

of a 24' x 153' wood storage building twenty feet in height at 3801 N.E. 5th Street. She reminded the
Commission that this item was tabled at the July 9, 1996 meeting due to lack of sufficient plans and information
nor did a representative of the company attend the meeting to provide any explanations.

Zoning Commission and explained that architectural drawings would be required. Because of delays in receiving a
response from the company and the submittal of the proper plans in a timely manner, a review of any site drawings
were not done by Staff prior to the meeting. She also informed the Commission of a statutory 60 day timeline
that must be observed after an application for action is received, it was her opinion that the Commission should
deny this request and suggest that the site plan start over with a new application to be reviewed at the September
meeting. She suggested that the Commission review the information presented by Mr. Ellis and his architect at
this meeting and discuss them so Mr. Ellis has an understanding of what is expected so that a decision can be
made at the September meeting.
Chair Person Szurek opened the public hearing.
Gary Larson withdrew from acting as a member of the Commission in this case as he is serving as the architect
for Rayco Construction. Mr. Larson presented plans he prepared, as Mr. Ellis' architect, and stated that the
proposed storage building has been relocated to the rear of the new lot purchased by Rayco in 1995. This lot lies
to the east of the original parcel. He informed the Commission that the existing storage building that was
constructed along the north property tine without any approval or permit does not meet the setback requirements.
He stated that 28 hard surfaced off-street parking spaces would be provided along the 39th Avenue side of the
lot and at the rear of the principal building. There is existing chain link fence along the east, west and north
property lines. However, he felt that this site has the same problem as the previous Wagamon Bros. case as the
type of fence existing is not appropriate for screening as it is not 50% opaque.
Commissioner Szurek asked if the new parcel and the original parcel have been combined into one parcel. Mr. E~lis
stated that they had not. He was informed by Staff that the combination would be necessary before any approval
would be granted.
Ms. Goodroad directed the Commissioners attention to a letter from Mr. Ellis requesting a time period of four years
to complete the paving requirements due to the cost of paving the site. He has proposed constructing the storage
building this year and paving 25% of his lot each year over the next four years and would agree to signing a legal
document to that effect. His need for the storage building is due to the loss of about 8t,000 a month because
of equipment sitting outside and suffering weather damage. He indicated that funds may not be available to fulfill
the hard surface requirement.
Ms. Goodroad again informed the Commission that action would be required regarding this case as the sixty (60)
day deadline would expire August 12, 1996. She stated that the Commission would need to deny the request due
to lack of adequate plans and have Mr. Ellis reapply. Attorney Hoeft indicated that, if Mr. Ettis agreed to an
extension for this process and stated it for the record, the sixty day deadline would be extended. Mr. Ellis stated
that he would be in agreement to extend the time frame for action on this request.
Discussion was held regarding the request for a four year timeframe to complete the paving requirement. Attorney
Hoeft indicated that a letter of credit would be an appropriate means of security to guarantee that the 25% of

paving would be completed each year with a "draw down" upon completion of each yearly phase. He had concerns
regardin9 the request without the City securin9 some means of guarantee. What if the pavin9 is not completed
after site plan approval has been 9ranted and the new building constructed? He stated that it would be very
difficult for enforcement and there would be no leverage at that point. With a letter of credit, if the work is not
done according to the agreement, the City could draw on the letter of credit and contract out the work and assess
any costs to the property taxes. He stated that the letter of credit should be entered into within a sixty day period
to guarantee the performance in a timely manner before the building permit is issued.
Mr. Larson felt that the letter of credit was extreme as this is a private business area with no use by the public.
The area in question would be for company use only for loading and unloading, etc. It was his opinion that the
City should work with the businesses in the area not restrict their development. He felt a letter of credit was
punitive.
Commissioner Paulson felt agreeing to a four-year paving agreement would be setting a precedent and creating a
definite problem by not having the required paving installed as we have required of all other site plan approvals.
The reason is for the control of dust, drainage, debri and/or silt or mud going into the street, etc.
ChairPerson Szurek closed the public hearing.
It was the concensus of the Commission that appropriately drawn plans should be submitted to staff in a timely
manner to facilitate the required review by the Fire Department, Engineering Department and Building Inspector prior
to the next meeting.
MOTION by Peterson, seconded by Fowler, to table the request for site plan approval until the September 3, 1996
meeting to allow for appropriate plans to be submitted in a timely manner for review by staff prior to the next
meeting. Roll Call: Larson - Abstain; All others- Aye. Motion carried.

Ms. Goodroad informed the Commission that Ken Anderson, the Community Development Director, had stated that
there could be some possible new businesses proposing to move into 3989 Central and the Columbia Heights Mall
at 4100 Central Avenue as part of the "incubator program". Some of these businesses may not be an approved
or conditional use for the CBD, Central Business District. She informed the Commissioners that she would be
contacting other cities and researching the possibility of making some changes to the uses allowed in the Central
Business District and bringing them to the Commission for review in the near future.
