Re: 40th and Central Redevelopment-Northeast Business Center
This memo is being sent in regards to the Northeast Business Center redevelopment proposal
that was initially addressed to the City Council, Library Board and Library Task Force on January 24,
2013.The Task Force has discussed this redevelopment since then and has forwarded to the City Council
a motion "encouraging the City Council to proceed with a market survey" ( Entire February 12, 2013
memorandum attached). The idea that was discussed at the January roll out meeting was if the Council
so desired,the next steps in the due diligence process would be for the City to commission a senior
market study in order to determine both the market capacity and the rent levels that could be achieved.
If the Council desires to move forward, staff is prepared for the March 11, 2013 meeting to bring an
action regarding the same. If the Council desires any additional information prior to the work session,
please contact me at 763.706.3672.

Mr. Mayor
Members of the City Council
City of Columbia Heights
590 40th Ave NE
Columbia Heights, MN 55421
Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:
At our meeting of February 11, 2013, the Library Task Force unanimously approved the
following resolution in regard to the proposed redevelopment of the Northeast Business Center
property:
The Task Force is favorably impressed with the redevelopment site at 40th and
Central Avenue and encourages the City Council to proceed with a market survey.
The Task Force recognizes that a new library that embodies our vision for a facility
to serve Columbia Heights could be created on one of several different sites.
Furthermore, the Task Force discussed advantages and shortcomings of the property and plan
which are outlined below:
Advantages of Redevelopment of Northeast Business Center
1. If the city makes a major investment in a library and city hall, this is a visible location at
a key corner of downtown Columbia Heights. It will improve downtown Columbia
Heights and aid in the redevelopment of the Mady's property.
2. 369 parking spaces in a 4-story structure with multiple entries from the surrounding
streets
3. The ability for the library and city to share facilities including meeting rooms and parking
spaces.
4. The Task Force has had numerous discussions of a combined-use facility incorporating a
library and housing.
5. Redevelopment at this site would free three properties in the city for sale or development:
the site behind the Public Safety Building, the current Library, and the current City Hall.
6. The current plan includes one large, open space for the library which can be appropriately
planned by architects experienced in library design.
7. This proposal could cause the rebirth, renewal, and resurrection of the only modern,
multi-story office building in Columbia Heights.
8. The location would provide a gateway into a Columbia Heights cultural region which
would include the Library, Heights Theatre, and the Dairy Queen.
9. Preliminary drawings elicited a"Wow!" response at the January 24, 2013, meeting of the
Council, Library Board and Task Force.
10. The proposed build-out warms up a building that is contemporary and aesthetically cold.
11. It is our hope that the building can be purchased at a reasonable price.
12. We assume the soundness of the building will be certified by a structural engineer before
proceeding.
Shortcomings of Redevelopment Plan
1. Building out the Library and City Hall to the curb means there is no room for expansion
of either space should future need warrant it.
2. The plan lacks green space and natural landscaping. Is it possible to use some of the 21
parking spaces in the northeast surface lot to add green space?
3. The site location on a commercial thoroughfare may be noisy.
4. Two elevators are not sufficient for 60 residences.
5. Does subterranean storage space exist in the current building?
In conclusion, the Task Force thinks the redevelopment of 40t'and Central Avenue is an exciting
proposal with much merit which would strengthen the downtown area. We look forward to
continuing the conversation.
The Task Force plans to present a final report and recommendation regarding a new library for
Columbia Heights to the City Council at the April 8,2013, meeting.
Sincerely,
O"�

ITEM: EMERALD ASH BORER (EAB) BY: Kevin Hansen BY:
UPDATE DATE: 2/26/13 DATE:
In the 2013 adopted budget, a line item was added that provided Emerald Ash Borer(EAB)treatment
for City-owned trees in the amount of$7,500. The intent was to begin treating our trees to provide
reasonable protection for Ash trees in city parks and to a lesser extent, public right-of-ways.
To provide additional background regarding the EAB problem, attached is a two-page summary that
details the problem of EAB and provides signs of EAB and which type of Ash trees are most
susceptible.The realization is not one of`if,' but`when' we will contract EAB in the City of Columbia
Heights. While EAB has not been detected in Columbia Heights, we do border two quarantine areas
where the insect has been identified (see attached map).
While the discovery of EAB is relatively new in the United States (2002—Michigan), there has been
much more study of the insect and resulting management information available recently.Attached is a
Decision Guide produced by the Indiana DNR and Purdue University that details which trees can be
saved, treatment options, and provides a flow diagram for the management of EAB.
Rather than just starting to treat public trees, staff is recommending developing a management plan that
begins with a complete inventory of Ash trees on public land. We propose to use an intern(University
of Minnesota Forestry Department)in 2013 to conduct the inventory,which would include the number
of Ash trees, location (GPS), size of tree, and a qualitative ranking of each tree. Based on this, staff
would make a determination of Ash trees worth saving, and then develop cost estimates for treating
those trees on a 1 or 2-year cycle. There are three primary treatment techniques to provide the insecticide
to Ash trees: soil drench; injection; and bark spray. An injection type treatment has the benefit over a
soil drench type treatment in that it provides a direct injection of the insecticide as opposed to larger
dispersal of liquid on the ground at the base of the tree. Injection is also on a 2-year cycle reapplication
as opposed to soil drench on an annual basis. Spray applications are applied to the bark of a tree also at
one year intervals. Many require a state license to apply the insecticide. Environmental considerations
will also need to be part of the management plan.

Complete Management Protocol
Emerald ,ash Borer
overview of the (Problem
The Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) has killed millions of ash trees since its discovery in
southeastern Michigan in 2002. Native to Asia, this insect was probably introduced
to the United States in wood packing material carried in on cargo ships or airplanes.
Through a combination of natural spread and human activity it is now found in
Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, Pennsylvania, Maryland, West Virginia, i
Virginia,Wisconsin, Kentucky,Minnesota,and Iowa,placing millions of additional ash
trees at risk. It will continue to spread.
Symptoms of EAB
Adult beetles feed on leaves and it is uncertain what impact adult feeding has on tree health. Larvae, on the other
hand, feed on the inner bark and disrupt the movement of water and minerals within a tree causing eventual dieback,
decline, and death of the tree. Symptoms of an early infestation may be difficult to diagnose. Be on the look-out for
multiple declining ash in a given area. As an infestation progresses, small vertical splits in the bark can be seen on
twigs or the main trunk and woodpecker holes may be present on trees.Trees may die after 2-4 years or less(small
trees).

ITEM: ADA COMPLIANCE FOR CITY WADING POOLS BY: Kevin Hansen BY:
DATE: 2/26/13 DATE:
In November 2012, the City Council authorized the preparation of plans and specs for meeting ADA
rules that are now in effect. Based on lack of available funding and the desire to keep the pools open,
the Park & Recreation Commission recommends modifying the pools with a zero entry type
modification,which staff also recommends for a lower,long-term maintenance cost. Staff also believes
this is an overall safer installation for pools without a lifeguard. The Park &Recreation Commission
also recommended pursuing this option at all three pools, but phased in over a three to five year time
period—contingent upon State approval.
Staff has contacted the MN Department of Health (MDH) for a phased in type approach for our three
pools, which they have conditionally agreed to contingent on final plan approval.
The selection of which pool to begin with was reviewed and discussed with the Park & Recreation
Commission at their February 27th meeting. The Commission is recommending proceeding with the
McKenna Park pool in 2013, followed by the Huset Park pool in 2014 or 2015. The schedule is to
prepare final plans in March, receive bids in April, and have the pools ready for use in early June,
following County inspection.
Another issue is that of overall pool circulation which we were grandfathered in on in 2008,the MDH
has also agreed to review plans based on the ADA requirements only.

Next Steps
During the next phase of the Study,the Detailed Evaluation of Alternatives,the following information will be prepared for
the enhanced bus, modern streetcar and no-build alternatives, and for the conceptual starter streetcar alternative:
• Cost to build • Cost affectiveness
• Number of people who would ride it (,generally cost divided by riders)
• Effects on the environment • Ability to attract more housing and businesses/jobs
• Effects on the traffic flow tot he Corridor
• Cost to operate and maintain 0 Public and stakeholder sentiment
(annual recurring cost)
This information will assist in determining which alternative best meats the project's purpose and goals and selection of a
Locally Preferred Alternative for transit in the corridor. The_hart belcv.,shows the current study process and timeline,as
ti. all as the subsequent work needed to advance the project.

ITEM: CITY-WIDE BIKE LOOP STUDY BY: Kevin Hansen BY:
DATE: 2/26/13 DATE:
In the fall of 2011,Anoka County Community Health and Environmental Services(CHES)announced they
had received grant funding from the State for its Statewide Health Improvement Program or SHIP.CHES then
began the process of contacting communities in the County to review SHIP strategies.The goal of SHIP is to
create a healthier environment and reduce health disparities. CHES's goal is to create and maintain safe and
convenient places to be physically active for people regardless of age by designing and/or redesigning systems
that decrease the barriers that prevent citizens from engaging in routine physical activity.
Throughout 2012 staff met with the County in response to their interest in forming a partnership with the City
to meet SHIP's goals. Through those discussions,we focused on one of the Minnesota Design Team goals of
creating a Bike Loop and connecting the City's 13 parks,along with the Anoka County Park.The Mississippi
River Regional Trail (MRRT) is also located just to the west of the city. It links the cities of Anoka, Coon
Rapids, Fridley and connects to the Minneapolis parkway system. In 2012, the City of Fridley received a
Transportation Enhancement grant that will provide pedestrian and bicycle connection over I-694(on Main
Street)and between our communities.Because of these resources,CHES suggested a partnership and provided
funding for a City-wide Bike Loop study,meeting SHIP's goal of promoting healthier,more environmentally
friendly modes of transportation,increasing residents'physical activity and enhancing the quality of life in the
community.
Based on the original MN Design Team recommendations, attached are three bike loop layouts and a
description of each:
Option 1 —Bike Lanes: This figure shows the impacts to the existing roadways if on-street bike lanes are
striped on the roadways.In this scenario,a 5'bike lane would be provided for each direction of travel.In most
cases,parking would need to be removed from at least one side of the roadway.
Option 2—Bike Lanes(One Direction Only): This figure shows the impacts to the existing roadways if an on-
street bike lane is striped in only one direction. In many cases, a 5' bike lane in only one direction can be
striped without removing the existing on-street parking if the existing travel and parking lanes are narrowed.
All lane widths would be consistent with State-Aid standards (which permit 8' parking lanes and 11' travel
lanes in many cases). From a cyclist perspective, a bike lane in only one direction is less desirable than bike
lanes in both directions; however, it is more desirable than no bike lanes at all. It is uncommon to provide a
bike lane in only one direction,but also not unheard of. Shared Lane Markings can be used to demarcate the
path for cyclists traveling in the direction where a dedicated bike lane is not provided (see below for more
discussion of shared lane markings).
Option 3—Off Street Paths: This figure shows the areas where we believe it would be feasible to construct an
off-street path adjacent to the roadway within the existing right-of-way.In these areas,off-street paths maybe
provided rather than(or in addition to) on-street bike lanes.
Option 4—Shared Lane Markings:The final option(no figure attached,but see image below)is to use Shared
Lane Markings(a.k.a. Sharrows) in both directions. Shared Lane Markings (as shown in the image below)
encourage bicyclists and motorists to share the existing travel lanes.As they do not require dedicated space on
the roadway, they can be used on any roadway without having any impacts to the existing lane widths or

configurations.Generally,most cyclists will perceive Shared Lane Markings to be less safe and less desirable
than dedicated on-street bike lanes.
In addition to designating and providing connectivity to our City parks and the City of Fridley plans that will
provide a connection over to the MRRT,the bike loop supports ISD 13's efforts of biking/walking through
their Safe Routes to School Grant(SRTS).
