such as Heritage Heights and the redevelopment interest on 39th and Central Avenue by Uddipi,
Taco Bell and the car wash. The cost for additional staff to work on these and items such as grants,
would be $68,000 including wages and fi:inge benefits. The salary would come from budget savings,
antenna fees, and fees collected for the renovation. This would be an entry level position. The EDA
made this recommendation for City Council approval.
Williams stated that the Apache area must also be considered for improvement. Streetar added 825
41 5t Avenue also has to be considered.
Motion by Williams, second by Ericson Diehm, to authorize one additional staff person to be hired
as soon as possible to assist with a number of redevelopment and housing projects.
Nawrocki indicated that the motion does not state specifically where the funds are to come from.
Staff has downplayed the amount of personnel in this department and that the senior planner position
is soon to be filled. Staff is also spending less time on the Senior High Rise that has been turned over
to a contractor. He asked the dollar amount spent on consultant fees by this department. The motion
needs an appropriate budget amendment and should not be adopted.
Streetar reviewed staff reductions from 2003 to the present. The Building Official and Pelmit Clerk
handle their own area. He reminded Council of when Nedegaard, Central Lofts developer pleaded
Jor a full time Building Official because of the delays. Streetar stated that we are working with less
and have less.
.Elicson Diehm stated redevelopment is at a critical point and staff has been given many
expectations. We have so many great opportunities presenting themselves; it would be a shame if we
.didnot take advantage of them.
Williams referred to the millions of dollars in grant money appropriated by this department.
Nawrocki indicated understanding of the workload and disagreement with the use of consultants.
Kelzenberg thanked the COlmnunity Development Director for the job he has done.
Peterson stated that there is more being done by this department than at any time dUling his life. If
we want improvements to continue, we need additional help. He thanked Streetar for all of the grant
funds received.
Nawrocki again asked where the funds would come from, and that it should be part of the action. He
referred to excess funds being the result of charging above actual cost for inspections.
Elrite concurred that before a position is filled, there should be a Council motion appropriating
funds. This can be reviewed in the Audit Report. Hoeft stated this would not amend the budget.
Peterson stated that the current motion is acceptable, with the funding source to be defined at a later
date. Hoeft stated that the State Building Code determines pennit fees, and if there is excess it is not
in violation of any law to place them in the General Fund.
Upon vote: Kelzenberg, aye; Williams, aye; Ericson Diehm, aye; Nawrocki, nay; Peterson, aye. 4

2) Case #2005-0701, Approve Lot Split of 134844 Y2 Avenue N.E. with Conditions
Streetar introduced Jennifer Haskamp, Consultant Planner from DSU.
Ericson Diehm asked if this person would be retained when the new full time planner comes on.
Streetar stated no, they would only be added in a time shortage.
Haskamp described the three way lot split request. The proposed lots meet all regulations. The
Planning and Zoning Commission (P&Z) recommends approval.
Nawrocki indicated concerns about sinking and cracking for future owners. The soil borings were
not the appropriate type and to authorize a lot split without knowing what you can put on the
property is ludicrous.
Ericson Diehm stated there was a lot of discussion by the P&Z and what the ultimate development
would be, but that is not a requirement to request a lot split. The property meets all ordinance
requirements. The P&Z informed the Developer of concerns for the future and of the moratorium on
duplexes. Williams stated that a similar type issue was addressed a few months ago. Nawrocki stated
that there should have been a change to our ordinance to protect future owners against damage and
settling.
Haskamp indicated that her research showed no soil contamination, but improper pilings for the last
home caused a gap with water settling and a sewer pipe breaking, resulting in a "sick home". The
CUlTent property owner has conducted soil tests and is aware the property would require significant
pilings.
Nawrocki stated that the settling lead to the contamination. We should make every effort to assure
citizens do not face these problems. Streetar stated the Building Official must approve the soils
when structures are built.
Motion by Williams, second by Ericson Diehm, to approve the lot split of 1348 44 Yz Avenue N.E.
into three lots, as the proposed lot split is consistent with the City of Columbia Heights
Comprehensive Plan and meets the regulations of the Zoning Ordinance for the R-2 District,
conditional on the following requirements:
1.. That the applicant pay a park dedication fee in the amount of $5,542; and
2. That lot size and structure coverage of the existing duplex is provided.
Peterson stated our building department would monitor this, and indicated that piling operations
have changed dramatically over the years. Also, if there is cracking the builder must stand behind his
work for ten years.
Upon vote: Kelzenberg, aye; Williams, aye; Ericson Diehm, aye; Nawrocki, nay; Peterson, aye. 4
ayes - 1 nay. Motion carried.

follow up on the water hardness brochure. Magee stated that as indicated in staff responses on
July 1, Kevin Hansen is looking into this and will give a report.
· Requests to see the directive from MnDot on the barricades discussed at the last meeting.
· Looking for more infonnation on the administrative change for the land use of the home bumed on
Mill Street. Streetar indicated the house is being removed for the storm water ponding, which will
benefit the City and the Developer. This was initially bought to expand the park property.
CITIZENS FORUM
Paul Knutson, 500 Club, 500 40th Avenue NE, stated he has been the target of extortion and coercion by a
Councilmember and by City Staff. He received complaints from the City on a three foot fence he placed to
keep dogs out, on a canopy and chairs he placed by the building, and only having enough parking for 20
patrons while having seating for 40. He was told he could keep the seating for 40 ifhe removed the canopy.
He felt this was extortion and that he would have to confonn to the building code of 20 seats. Knutson
stated that other businesses should be required to do the same. He asked for infonnation on parking
requirements, which he did not receive. When meeting with staffhe was told that ifhe wanted to sell his
building the City would block the mortgage, which was intimidating. He stated that he completed removal
of the excess seats, then called Bob Streetar and stated that he expected other neighborhood businesses to
also comply, but he did not get a response. Following this he again met with Streetar, whose attitude was
con:li-ontational, indicating nothing would be done to other businesses. He then indicated that he was
recording the conversation and questioned why a Cit"y employee would be concerned about a duplication of
what was said. He talked to Fehst also, and asked him for an exact statement as to the number of seats
allowed. He stated that the City is not fiiendly to businesses. Knutson stated that Streetar told him he
should not waste his time, and that he does not work for me.
Nawrocki disagreed that this is extortion. They disagreed on the definition.
Streetar n~plied that the City Manager received an inquny from a Councihnember to see if the 500 Club was
incompliance with the zoning ordinance. Staff found parking sufficient for 20 seats, while they have 40.
They have a deck they do not have a pennit for. The owner clanlled the previous Building Official said it
was fine. He told the owner that the City wants to be supportative, but there are a lot ofthings that are
nonconfonning, and we would have the Building Official look at the deck for safety. He also told the owner
that the canopy could be up during the Jamboree but would have to come down after that time. The owner
stated he did not want to do that and insisted that Staff go across the street and do the same to them. Streetar
stated his answer was that then- use had not intensified. Streetar indicated that if the owner chose to file a
complaint, we would inspect the area. He stated that staff has tried to work with this owner, but he does not
want to cooperate.
Nawrocki again stated that he takes strong exception to the claim that someone is trying to extort anything.
Nawrocki stated that he was the Councilmember that asked the question, because he was asked the question,
regarding building add-ons. He referred to the deck and fencing added on the property and Police
Department concems of alcohol being passed through the fence. Questions were also raised about parking.
He also questioned ifthere was a building pennit for the structure and the unstable canvas cover. Nawrocki
stated he was infonned there was not a pemlit issued. He asked the City Manager about the seating and
parking. The City Manager indicated to him that there was not a solid floor, so a structure was not allowed.
Nawrocki stated that we were told the structure was for viewing the Jamboree. On two occasions before that
people were using the structure. The canopy is only plastic sheeting. Questions have also been raised about
signage. Nawrocki stated that he would not apologize for following up on a resident's question. He also
spoke of one ofthe past owners.
Knutson read the definitions of coercion and intiInirl.,t;')n.

Peterson stated that the City Manager would return next week and he suggested that Councihnembers stop
by the 500 Club.
Knutson stated he would return to the next Council meeting.
Nawrocki explained that grandfathering would apply to property that is nonconfonning and does not
change. Any change nullifies being grandfathered in. The new structure must comply with current codes.
Peterson stated that we are a small old town, and if we went strictly by code, we would close half the
businesses in town.
COUNCIL CORNER
Kelzenberg
· At the last meeting the Mayor asked for something positive about the City. The "people" are the positive of
the City. What the City has accomplished in the last few years is marvelous. The City is going in the right
direction. People are working to make their property and yards better.
o Wished Councilmember Ericson Diehm a Happy ''upcoming'' Birthday.
Williams
· Our people are our positive, some complain, but most are working for our fhture and t"1.e betterment of our
City.
· Read a letter fi-om Elaine Feely stating that she does not agree with resident's negative comments toward
Councilmembers. She complimented Fire Chief Gcinnan on the job he does.
· Read a resident letter stating appreciation for the job the Fire Department did extinguishing the fire on the
. back of their garage.
· We should do onto others as we would have them to do unto us.
· The Rising to New Heights Committee will meet tomorrow night.
Nawrocki
· Negatives are opportunities to make improvements, in which case they become positives.
· Redevelopment in the Industrial Park area is a classic example often pounds in a five pound bag. The
comment by the Planner that. there wouldn't be many children in that area, can be related to the Sheffield
neighborhood where this was to be the same, but did not turn out that way. This results in us having to clean
up the area. Concern about the units becoming rental property, which should not be allowed. Was told by
our Attorney that we can not do so. Fridley has stipulations in their condo declarations that no more than
five percent of tlle units can be rental at one time. This is excellent and should be explored.
· Has the fmancial report been published in the local paper? Elrite stated the liquor report has been published
and the City report will be soon. The Coon Rapids and Blaine reports have revenue and expenditure on a per
capita basis. Would like to see that for our City. Who do the reports go to? Elrite indicated they go to the
State Auditor.
e When is the 2006 budget to be presented? The Charter calls for presentation in August. The last few years
we only get a sUlmnary. We need to spend more time on the budget and less time on the fancy presentations.
· Fall Newsletter should have an article on the sewer backup insurance and the 2006 budget.
· Last meeting brought up resident's son not being supervised at a program through our recreation
depaliment. Allegedly, the people we sent to supervise were playing volleyball. How many did we send?
The response in the Green Sheet did not answer the question. Concerned about the reputation of our
programs, but more concerned about the safety and perceived safety of our children.

Peterson
· Thanked everyone for their prayers and concem for his "heart adventure".
· Realizes what a God-send people like our Fire Fighters and EMT's are. Thank you, and we are proud of
you.
· The Sunday house bum adjacent to Huset Park was amazing. Most of us would not go in a burning building,
yet they do so with no hesitation.
· Could not pick a positive out of Nawrocki's rep011.
· Our people are our strongest asset. In looking for bad properties and long grass, found that 95 percent of our
community is beautiful. A mess may not bother you, but may bother your neighbor. Look around your yard
and pick things up - just to be a good neighbor.
· Cooperation is the biggest thing Councihnembers need to have, at meetings and with staff. Apologized to
Streetar for the negative comment given to him earlier.
· Don't take ourselves too seriously. Do a random act of kindness.

Boosters Club currently has a premises permit to conduct charitable gambling at the Star Bar
and Grill, which the City Council approved August 23, 2004, and for which the Athletic

Charitable Gambfulg Control Board stating that the City of Columbia Heights has no objection

employment details that are handled through the department. These details were for security at Unique
Thrift Store, Columbia Heights High School activities, the Middle School security detail, Columbia
Heights High School All Night Party, and Valley View PTA event.
Since this type of off duty employment is handled through the department, officers have signed up and
worked these details since January 1, 2005, and we have received checks from the following entities:

Committee in the amount of $176; and one check from Valley View PTA in the amount of $141.00.
According to the City Finance Director, this money is considered revenue, had to be and was placed in the
City General Fund.
ANALYSIS/CONCLUSION
The Police Department is requesting that the City Council pass a motion requiring the $9,556.37 received
from Unique Thrift Store, CHHS activities, CHHS All Night Party Committee, Valley View PT A, and the
Middle School security detail to cover the cost of off duty officers working security at these locations be

CITY COUNCIL LETTER

ITEM: Authorize extension of contract with Auction
House to auction excess City property, unclaimed
/forfeited police evidence and found property.
NO.

ORlGINATING DEPARTMENT
POLICE
BY: Thomas M. JOhnSOl
DATE: June 30, 2005
BACKGROUND
On May 13, 2004, the City Council approved a one-year contract with Auction Masters of Maple Grove.
During the past year, they have performed two auctions for us. The first was August 19, 2004, and the
City received a check for $1,626.37; the second auction was April 21 , 2005, and the City received a check
for $3,988.88. The Police Department was able to greatly reduce the personnel time involved with the
auction by using Auction Masters instead of running the auction ourselves. Sergeant Dietz, who prepares
the auction items, also feels we are obtaining better prices by going through the auction house. I have
contacted Greg Christian, the owner of Auction Masters, and he has agreed to lock in for two years our
Clli~ent commission rate of25%. Since we use City trucks and trailers to take the items to Maple Grove, I
feel we have minimal costs involved in the auction, which results in a greater return to the City.
ANALYSIS/CONCLUSION
ill order to continue to save stafftime and costs to maximize the City's return, the Police Department is
recommending that we enter into a two-year contract with Auction Masters of Maple Grove, Minnesota,
with the commission to be 25% ofthe items auctioned for the City by Auction Masters for the period
August 2005 to August 2007.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to authorize the City Manager and the Police Chiefto enter into a
two-year contract (August 2005 to August 2007) with Auction Masters of Maple Grove for auctioning
excess City property, unclaimed/forfeited police evidence, and found property with the commission to be
set at 25% ofthe proceeds for both years ofthe contract.

Slmshine Management
P.O. Box 120728
New Brighton, MN 55112
In May, we received your license application for your property at 1000 Peters Place NE in Columbia
Heights. As you may know, we have had some issues regarding this property. On Jlme 9, 2005 an
inspection was made of the entire property with a significant number of violations found. The violation
notice will be coming to you in a separate notice.
My concern today is that a question has arisen on who actually owns the property. According to Anolca
County records Peters Place Apartments LLC owns the property. The application submitted was
incorrect. A management company cannot be listed as an owner unless it is the owner of record. Also,
with a Limited Liability Corporation we need to have a corporate officer listed by name along with the
other personal information asked for on the application. The same corporate officer needs to sign the
application. Sunshine Management can continue to be listed on the application as the entity to contact
for inspections and to mail inspection paperwork to.
I am sending a new, blank license application along with this letter. The completed application needs to
be returned to us by June 28, 2005 or the property will be scheduled for a license revocation hearing.
Please contact me if you have any further questions regarding this application or the recent inspections.
Sincerely,
Columbia Heights Fire Department
