Nawrocki indicated that we have problems getting full attendance for 6 p.m. meetings. Patty
Muscovitz, City Clerk, indicated that the 6 p.m. meeting time was requested by Anoka County.
Peterson asked Williams to adjust his schedule to attend the meeting. Nawrocki stated it was not
fair of the County to limit the meeting to only two possible nights. Peterson stated that this time
we can honor their request and ask for more flexibility in the future.
Motion by Diehm, second by Williams, to establish the Local Board of Appeal and Equalization
meeting date for Monday, April 11, 2011, at 6:00 p.m. in the City Council Chambers. Upon vote:
All ayes. Motion carried.
D. Request for Four -Way Stop Signs on 7th Street and 41st Avenue
Peterson stated that the Traffic Commission has recommended no signage at this site. Staff has
suggested several alternatives. Kevin Hansen, Public Works Director, stated this item is an
appeal of the Traffic Commission recommendation. Hansen indicated the criteria that staff looks
at to determine signage, which includes traffic volume, vehicles and pedestrians, number of legs
(4), approach speeds (30 mph), site distance, and the crash record. Determinations are guided by
federal and state MUTCD restrictions, which regulate where signs can be placed for intersection
control. Regulations are different for low volume residential streets. This street does not meet the
criteria for the placement of stop signs. Staff looked at the possibility of installing yield signs and
believes that the North and South entrance could use yield signs. Staff also reviewed removing
parking within 20 feet from the intersection, and feels it would be beneficial. It remains staff's
recommendation to look at yield signs for 7 Street and to restrict parking to improve visibility.
Diehm stated there are a number of similar intersections in this area. Is this looked at on a case
by case basis or do we look at the surrounding area as well? Hansen stated both. The
investigation is initiated when we get a request, such as 41 and Washington was in 2009 and we
then also look at other intersections in the area. Diehm stated that she was involved in an
accident at an uncontrolled intersection; residents realize these intersections are uncontrolled, but
visitors may not. Hansen stated that at an uncontrolled intersection the rules are that the vehicle
on the left yields to the vehicle on the right, or the first vehicle to the intersection has the right -
of- way. Hansen stated the perception that stop signs stop accidents is not true. He referred to the
false sense of security where stop signs are placed.
Peterson asked if the regulations include corners with churches. Whatever action is taken here
we should also do at 41 and Washington. Hansen stated that land use is not considered. Speed,
volume, and accidents are considered for sign determination. Peterson referred to the discrepancy
in the number of accidents reported at this intersection. Hansen indicated that because of the
dates, the last two accidents may not have been included. Fehst stated there was one in October
2010, but none reported through January 2011.
Nawrocki questioned the rational for the stop sign at Jefferson and 41 Avenue. He stated it is
typical to want stop signs in your area but not the areas you drive in. Nawrocki asked if the
accidents were during church service dates and times. Hansen listed the times.
Abdulbaset Elhshik, Islamic Center of MN, 4056 7d, Street, stated that their service times vary
and the accidents were probably at that time. This request is also by surrounding residents and
the church at Washington and 41 Avenue.
A resident living at 41 and 7 Street stated that on December 28, 2010 there was an accident on
42 Drivers do not mind the speed limits. He asked if stop signs were placed in one direction if
7

it would help. Hansen again gave the federal requirements.
Schmitt indicated that most churches in our community have a controlled intersection by their
facility. These are the only two that do not. They sometimes share a parking lot, which results in
many pedestrians crossing the street. She referred to the Traffic Commission site review. Hansen
indicated the engineering process to review an intersection.
Eric Ness, 4057 7 Street, stated he lives on the Southeast corner and sees people driving 35 mph
on 41 Avenue that do not check the other directions as they cross. For safety, this has to change.
Peterson asked him in which direction would it be best to slow traffic. Ness stated that north and
south is the least used. Diehm stated that on 7 Street from 40 through 44 Avenue there are no
stop or yield signs.
Nawrocki stated the suggestions are reasonable and that we should consider both.
Motion by Nawrocki, to authorize installation of "Yield" signs on 7 Street and 41 Avenue,
yielding traffic on 7th Street, based on the configuration of the intersection and the amount of
pedestrian traffic generated by the nearby mosque and church, and to also designate "No
Parking" for 20' from the intersection on the approach lanes for 7 Street and 41 Avenue.
Nawrocki stated that 7 Street has historically been a through street in our city. Peterson asked if
Nawrocki would consider adding to his motion yield signs at Washington Street for St. Matthews
Church. Nawrocki asked if there should be a public hearing. Hansen stated this was brought
forward by them in October of 2009. Peterson stated that we will try this and see if it works or
we can review the results. Schmitt stated that yield signs are effective, but vehicles must yield to
pedestrians in crosswalks. Hansen stated that removal of crosswalks at low volume intersections
has improved safety. Schmitt recommended tabling this for resident input. Peterson again
indicated that what is good for this intersection would also be good for the Washington
intersection.
Diehm seconded the motion.
Peterson explained what this motion means and indicated that pedestrians do have the right -of-
way. Hoeft stated that the law is specific on who has the right -of -way and we are unable to
explain all of the various situations at this meeting.
Upon vote: All ayes. Motion carried.
Motion by Williams, second by Diehm, to authorize the installation of "Yield" signs on
Washington Street (North and South) at 41 Avenue, and also designate "No Parking" for 20'
from the intersection on the approach lanes for 7 Street and 41 Avenue.
Schmitt asked when this would take effect. Hansen stated that signage is usually placed in mid to
late April.
Upon vote: All ayes. Motion carried.
F. Approve Public Works Blanket Orders for 2011 Purchases
Nawrocki referred to stop box repair costs. Hansen stated the budgeted amount is based on past
experience. He indicated the estimated costs to repair a curb stop and the process of the petition

and waiver agreement.
Fehst stated that if residents have problems paying their water bill they should come to city hall
and work with us.
Motion by Williams, second by Diehm, approval to authorize staff to process blanket purchase
orders in an amount not to exceed the 2011 budget amounts for: De -icing salt for salt/sanding
operations purchased off the State of Minnesota Purchasing Contract, Fuel (unleaded and diesel)
for City vehicles from the State of Minnesota Purchasing Contract and the Anoka County
Cooperative Agreement, Bituminous asphalt for patching /paving City streets and alleys from
Commercial Asphalt, or Bituminous Roadways or C.S. McCrossan, and Curb stop and service
repairs, for delinquent accounts and foreclosed properties. Upon vote: All ayes. Motion carried.
G. Authorization to Seek Bids for the 2011 Miscellaneous Concrete Replacement and Installation
Project
Nawrocki asked if the locations are pre - determined. Hansen stated this annual program has the
spring locations already set and there will be fall work required after the bid has been let. Unit
pricing is used.
Motion by Diehm, second by Williams, to authorize staff to seek bids for the 2011
Miscellaneous Concrete Replacement and Installation Project. Upon vote: All ayes. Motion
carried.
H. Authorization to Seek Bids for 2011 Sanitary Sewer Pipe Lining Project
Nawrocki questioned the inclusion of 2010. Hansen stated this is from collection district 2 and
was determined in the fall of 2010. Hansen stated the budget last year was $125,000 and the
Council increased that to $168,000.. This year more funds were budgeted.
Motion by Williams, second by Schmitt, to authorize staff to seek bids for the 2011 Sanitary
Sewer Pipe Lining Project for the pipe segments identified herein. Upon vote: All ayes. Motion
carried.
PUBLIC HEARINGS - none
ITEMS FOR CONSIDERATION
A. Other Ordinances and Resolutions
2nd Reading of Ordinance 1588, being a Zoning Amendment as it Relates to Driveways.
Motion by Diehm, second by Williams, to waive the reading of Ordinance No. 1588, being
ample copies available to the public. Upon vote: All ayes. Motion carried.
Motion by Diehm, second by Williams, to adopt Ordinance No. 1588, being an ordinance
amending Ordinance No. 1490 City Code of 2005, relating to driveways within the City of
Columbia Heights.
Nawrocki stated that a permit is not required at this time. Schmitt asked to correct the part about
driveways leading to an attached garage and gave an example of a home with two driveways,
one not leading to a garage. Fehst stated this could be looked at. Peterson stated this would be for
new driveways. Diehm stated if a driveway was already there, we would not allow a driveway
directly to a house and would encourage them to widen the new driveway. If it is non-
conforming you have the right to rebuild it. Hoeft stated it would not affect any existing
9

driveways. Schmitt referred to homes without garages. Diehm stated that is not a change, we are
making the rule more lenient and that change would require a public hearing. Schmitt asked that
the Planning and Zoning Commission look at this. Nawrocki stated that placing a parking pad is
allowed.
Upon vote: All ayes. Motion carried.
B. Bid Considerations - none
C. New Business and Reports
Nawrocki referred to discussion at the work session on rejoining the SRA and the Xcel rate
increases. The SRA has 29 communities that participate to speak on utility rate increases. The
cost to belong, based on community size, is $1,600 a year. He would like this reconsidered.
Motion by Nawrocki, to rejoin the Suburban Rate Authority.
Diehm stated that she could not support this. In the budget process, the Council looked at all
memberships and there were several worthwhile organizations that were cut through that
process. With the SRA, right or wrong, our residents receive the benefit whether or not we
belong to the group. Diehm indicated that she would be more comfortable looking at all of the
organizations again, not just one organization.
Fehst indicated that the Council dropped their membership in the Northern Mayors Association
and the Metro League of Cities (which is a significant group). We must belong to the League of
Minnesota Cities to be part of their insurance. The SRA was useful to us for our franchise
agreements. He referred to the utility company's lack of working with us on a timely basis
during repairs. He also asked the Council to reconsider the SRA and Metro Cities memberships.
Nawrocki stated that this affects every one in town. He again indicated the benefits of belonging
to this organization.
Peterson stated that all organizations joined would be a benefit to residents. This should be
discussed at budget time. Schmitt asked how long it has been since we have not participated.
Fehst stated two years. Schmitt indicated that this has saved us $3,000. Peterson indicated that
whether we belong or not, they fight for all communities and we can look at this again at budget
time.
Peterson called for a second to the motion. Motion died for lack of a second.
Nawrocki stated he attended the Local Government Official's meeting. Council member Schmitt
also attended. He offered copies of information received and covered topics discussed such as
sharing services and equipment. Fehst stated that he has attended the Anoka County "shared
services" meetings and Magee is on one of the committees. It seems to be skewed to the smaller
cities. Fehst listed shared contracts and equipment. We continue to participate in the high speed
interne line discussion, to cooperate with the School District, and have an image committee.
Nawrocki referred to the fiber optic discussion and asked for better information to tie in to the
County system. Fehst stated that suggested costs have been significantly reduced. He
complimented Alexandr Chernin, IS Director, on his participation in this.
Nawrocki referred to the police car bids at the last meeting and indicated that he found current
10

mileage on the vehicles at about 60,000. He is convinced that we could get more mileage from
the existing cars. Nawrocki asked that he be registered for the March 24 LMC Legislative
meeting, excluding the lunch. He stated that at 4032 Van Buren there are eleven waste
containers, including recycling containers. Two containers were tipped over and there was a
computer device on the ground.
Nawrocki referred to the liquor store report received from the Finance Director following a
request at the last meeting and the comment that he spoke negatively regarding the liquor stores.
He indicated this was misrepresented and he does not make apologies for asking questions.
Nawrocki stated his concerns about the budget of the city. Both the State and Federal
government problems will filter down to local governments. He read his concerns from a
prepared statement. Fehst stated that this council has laid out a four year plan which includes our
bonding. This plan has increased our bond rating by two levels. There have been dramatic
cutbacks since 2003. Peterson stated that if we had kept up with the needs of the community we
would not be in this situation. He indicated his pride in our community, the new public safety
building and gym. He also stated that our city offices are in sad shape. The Council makes
decisions and moves forward. He requested to not go over past decisions at subsequent meetings.
We will continue to control spending.
ADMINISTRATIVE REPORTS
Report of the City Manager
Fehst referred to Nawrocki's question on building cleaning services, which has been previously
answered. We feel we will be able to save money and get a better product with in -house cleaning
and maintenance. Peterson stated this will take time to establish and the attempt is to save money.
Nawrocki requested specific numbers paid to the contractors.
Nawrocki questioned the replacement of computers and the cost. Elrite stated that every year we
replace some computers that are no longer efficient. We are far behind on this and some that should
be replaced won't be replaced because of the budget. Approximately 10 computers will be replaced
at a price range of $1,100 to $1,200.
Report of the City Attorney — nothing to report
CITIZENS FORUM
Dwayne Morrell, 4212 Reservoir Boulevard, suggested council and staff watch the movie
"Bruebaker ". He referred to liquor store employee costs. Fehst asked that he speak to the Finance
Director to explain this, as he may be misreading the information. The liquor operations manager will
attend a future meeting to describe our operations. Peterson stated that Mr. Morrell is unintentionally
misleading the public. Morrell asked if he can send a confidential email to the City. Fehst stated that
all communication received is public information. Morrell questioned what happened to bringing
Aldi's to the City and suggested building styles. Peterson stated that our Community Development
Department is actively working on this and any projects will be presented to the public. Morrell
questioned the purchase of Mady's bowl. Peterson stated that is not active. Fehst stated that citizen
comments are limited to five minutes and asked for any additional questions in writing; this is not a
give and take session. Upon the citizen becoming boisterous, Peterson ended the discussion.
Roger Strom, 690 40 Avenue, questioned if the sump pump inspections are a federal mandate.
Hansen stated this program is by city ordinance. Fehst stated that there is a federal mandate for clean
water and if we do not do this the Met Council charges us a yearly surcharge. Strom asked if this will
11

be done by city inspectors. Hansen stated that staff has done the inspections for the last four to five
years, completing two- thirds of the city. The remaining inspections will be completed by the company
contracted to replace water meter batteries. Strom questioned why his utility bill, for the last three
quarters, was estimated. Fehst stated it could be a bad battery.
Peterson: "Remember your service men and women. Don't take ourselves to seriously, enjoy life, and
do a random act of kindness."

NO: PUBLIC WORKS
ITEM: ACCEPTANCE OF FINAL PARK PLANS AND BY: K. Hansen BY: :� „; "r
AUTHORIZATION TO SEEK BIDS FOR RAMSDELL DATE: 2/24/11 DATE:
PARK IMPROVEMENTS
Background:
On November 22, 2010, the City Council authorized staff to prepare construction plans and specifications for capital improvements to
Ramsdell Park. The plans were based upon Master Plans developed for the park and accepted by the Council in 2008.
Analysis /Conclusions:
Construction plans were prepared by the consulting firm of Brauer and Associates and reviewed at development stages by City
staff and the Park & Recreation Commission. The plans were also posted on the City website and at the City Library for public
review (copy attached). Staff mailed notices to property owners abutting and surrounding the park for review and comment on the
proposed plans. The Park & Recreation Commission held a public meeting on January 12, 2011, with over 40 people attending. At
their regular meeting on February 23, 2011 the Park & Recreation Commission recommended approval of the final plans to the
City Council. Public comment provided was very positive for the recommended improvements as detailed below:
1. Athletic field for girls fast pitch softball and boys little league
2. A bituminous walking trail
3. New parking areas off of Johnson Street
4. A relocated playground area (playground equipment already purchased in 2009)
5. Small picnic shelter
6. Overall site landscaping / perimeter screening
7. Required surface water treatment areas (bioinfiltration areas)
8. Other Improvements: Parking expansion on the school -owned property (SE corner)
One of the primary issues raised at the public meeting was parking off of Johnson Street and the speed of traffic through this area. In
response, staff has changed the parking layout to provide 10 feet of additional depth in the stall lengths. This will allow better site
visibility in each direction and better maneuverability exiting the parking area. To address the speed issue, staff will work with the
Police Department (following snow melt) to review speeds on Johnson adjacent to the park. Depending on the outcome of actual speeds,
a stepped approach can be followed using educational measures, signage, intersection control or physical measures such as narrowing of
the street (throating).
Staff has also met with and reviewed the plans with the ISD 13 staff. Staff presented the plans to the School Board at their February 22 °d
regular meeting. The school provided a very positive response to the proposed improvements and has indicated cost participation on the
following elements:
• Parking Lot - expansion on ISD 13 property
➢ Drinking Fountain
➢ Athletic Field including outfield warning track & fencing
➢ Athletic Field scoreboard
➢ Athletic Field Batting Cage
➢ Bleachers
The engineers /architects estimate for the above elements is $75,000 to $85,000. An agreement would need to be prepared with the
school based upon actual bids received.
Due to budget considerations, work in Ramsdell Park was delayed in both 2009 and 2010. The preparation of construction plans and
review process (public, commission and staff) is complete. The 2011bidding market remains favorable in terms of pricing.
Approximately $300,000 is available in Fund 412: Parks Capital Improvements. The schedule would provide that improvements would
begin in June of 2011 with a completion date of August 2011— or 10 -12 weeks schedule.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to accept the Final Park Plan(s) prepared by Brauer and Associates for Ramsdell Park and
authorize the advertisement of public bids.
