ITEM: ORDINANCE NO. 126:1.., PERTAINING NO: 6.1!,. TO FLOOD PLAIN BY: P. HENTGES B�*JJDATE: 05/06/93 5 <o {q �
Attached please find a copy of Ordinance No. 1261 that was adopted by this body on March 8, 1993. A copy of the adopted Ordinance along with the published council minutes of February 22, 1993 were forwarded to the State of Minnesota DNR-Division of Waters as is required by the State. The DNR-Division of Waters is the state agency that will be assisting the city in the administration of the Flood Plain Ordinance. After reviewing the forwarded documentation, the state contacted this office and indicated that the Ordinance must be published. The need for a published notice of public hearing was not clear. The State has indicated that we must readopt Ordinance 1261 with a new effective date of June 23, 1993.
A notice of public hearing, to be held on May 24, 1993, has been forwarded to the Focus News and will be published in the May 11th edition. No changes have been made to the Ordinance and its readoption is required and will be made in exactly the same form. The primary concern of the DNR-Division of Waters is that a public hearing with published notice be given in order to prevent any later challenges to the validity of the Ordinance's adoption.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to waive the reading of the resolution, there being ample copies available for the public.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to schedule the second reading of Ordinance No. 1261, Being an Ordinance Amending Ordinance No. 853, City Code of 1977, as Amended, Pertaining to Flood Plain, for May 24, 1993.

Chapter 9, Article III, of Ordinance No. 853, City Code of 1977, as it currently reads, is hereby repealed.
Chapter 9, Article III, of Ordinance No. 853, City Code of 1977, shall hereafter read as follows, to wit:
STATUTORY AUTHORIZATION, FINDINGS OF FACT AND PURPOSE
Statutory Authorization: The legislature of the State of Minnesota has, in Minnesota Statutes Chapter 103F and 462.351 et. seq.

Therefore, the City Council of the City of Columbia Heights, Minnesota does ordain as follows:
9.301.2
Finding of Fact:

9.301.22
Methods used to analyze flood hazards. This ordinance is based upon a reasonable method of analyzing flood hazards which is consistent with the standards established by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources.
1

2
9.302.42
The boundaries of the zoning districts shall be determined by scaling distances on the Official Zoning Map. Where interpretation is needed as to the exact location of the boundaries of the district as shown on the Official Zoning Map, as for example where there appears to be a conflict between a mapped boundary and actual field conditions, and there is a formal appeal of the decision of the Zoning Administrator, the Board of Adj ustment shall make the necessary interpretation. All decisions will be based on elevations on the regional (100-year} flood profile and other available technical data. Persons contesting the location of the district boundaries shall be given a reasonable opportunity to present their case to the Board and to submit technical evidence.
9.302.5
Abrogation and Greater Restrictions: It is not intended by this Ordinance to repeal, abrogate, or impair any existing easements, covenants, or deed restrictions.

9.302.7
Severability: If any section, clause, provision, or portion of this Ordinance is adjudged unconstitutional or invalid by a court of competent juris diction, the remainder of this Ordinance shall not be affected thereby.
9.302.8

As part of the 1993 budget process, the City Manager recommended reducing the number of
precincts in Columbia Heights from nine to eight There were two reasons for this recommendation: 1)This would reduce election costs as the City w0uld only need election judges to staff eight
precincts and supplies and ballots for eight precincts; 2) The current Precinct Five is very small,havfag a population of 694 and 513 registered voters. In reducing the number of precincts to eight,
the population in all precincts will be more closely equalized . The attached map has a minimaleffect in precinct boundary changes. On this map, Precinct Five and a major portion of Precinct
Four are combined into the new Precinct Five. Precinct Seven's boundaries are moved south from44th Avenue to 42nd Avenue, and the precinct number is changed from Seven to Four. Precinct Six
is expanded to pick up the old portion of Precinct Seven, which was n0rth of 50th Avenue. Precinct
Eight remains the same, with the number being changed to Precinct Seven. Precinct Nine remains
the same, with the na me being changed to Precinct Eight. The effect on voters due to this changewill be very minimal. All voters will still vote at the same polling place with the followingexceptions: Voters in the portion of old Precinct Four that was combined with old Precinct Seven
will now vote at Highland Elementary instead of Shiloh-Bethany; voters in old Precinct Five will
now vote at Shiloh-Bethany instead of Prestemon Park.
Minnesota State Statutes require that any changes in precinct boundaries be adopted by the City
Council at least ninety (90) days prior to the Primary Election. Since the City's Primary Election is scheduled for September 21, 1993, changes would have to be adopted prior to June 21, 1993. These changes then need to be posted sixty (60) days prior to the Primary Election, and any registered
voters whose polling place has changed must be notified at least fourteen (14) �ys prior to the
Election. As a minimal number of voters have a change in polling place, it is estimated that the cost
to notify these voters will be less than $500.
In addition to the above information, Jo-Anne Student, the Deputy City Oerk, has researched other alternatives for a polling place for the newly created Precinct Five. She will be available at the
Council meeting to provide information on possible alternative sites. At this time, the City Council
has two options: To reduce the number of precincts to eight or leave the number of precincts at nine
and increase the election department budget to accommodate staffing and supplies for nine
precincts.

APPROVAL
As previously reported, on February 16, 1993, we received notice from the Minnesota Department
of Employee Relations that our pay equity plan, as presented using December 31, 1991, data, was
out of compliance.
The action necessary to pass the compliance test is to submit a new report to the Department of
Employee Relations by June 30, 1993, with data being current as of one month previous to
submission. If the department's analysis of the new report shows that we are in compliance, no
penalties will be assessed and a "Notice of Compliance" will be issued. However, if the analysis
shows the jurisdiction out of compliance, penalties will be assessed back to December 31, 1991
($100/day or 5% reduction in Local Government Aid, whichever is greater).
Compliance can be achieved by improving the underpayment ratio to at least 80%. This can be
accomplished by reducing the number of female classes which fall below predicted pay.
Based on the recommendation of the City Manager and discussions at a recent work session, it is
recommended that the City achieve an underpayment ratio of 86.4% by adjusting pay of the
following five female positions for 1993 as follows:
Assistant to the City Manager . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $54/month
Administrative Assistant -Public Works . . . . . . . . $57 /month
Special Projects Coordinator . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $57/month
Senior Citizens Coordinator . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $62/month
Payroll/ Accounting Clerk . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $173/month
The new wage ranges would then be adjusted by 2.3% for 1994. Attached is a resolution which
would authorize these new wage ranges.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to waive the reading, there being ample copies available for
the public.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to adopt Resolution 93-__ ; being a resolution adjusting
salaries to comply with pay equity.

Ms. Nygaard presented the request of Mr. Johnson and Mr. Fogerty for site plan approval to allow a 12 foot by 24 foot detached garage to be moved
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING -MINUTES
MAY 4. 1993 PAGE 3
onto the lot at 4229 Quincy Street.
She stated that the property is co-owned by Mr. Johnson and Mr. Fogerty and has been used as rental property for a number of years. As part of
the requirements of the Housing Maintenance inspection, the previously demolished garage was supposed to have been rebuilt with a deadline of June 1992.
Photographs of the proposed garage to be moved to 4229 Quincy Street were presented. Mr. Johnson's application stated that the property has
recently been surveyed with the four corner irons in place. However, a Certified Certificate of Survey has not been submitted to this office. Ms. Nygaard stated that until the surveJor signs the Certificate of Survey, the placement of the irons have no credence. She indicated that
the survey had been done about a year ago, but the surveyor would not issue the certificate until he is compensated for the work.
Ms. Nygaard informed the Commission that there would be five items that would need to be followed if approval would be granted to move in the proposed garage. They are as follows:
1.A performance bond of $4,000.00 be submitted upon application for a
moving permit and building permit.
2.A deadline of ninety (90) days from this meeting date is establishedfor total completion of the garage installation including a fully paved
driveway. Failure to complete by that date would be grounds forforfeiture and the bond would be cashed.
3.The moved-in structure is to be made "As New" and would comply with
UBC requirements for accessory structures (i.e. private garages).
4.The moving contractor, the concrete contractor, electrical contractor(if structure is to be wired for electricity) and any other contractorinvolved in this move and installation are required to be licensed and
bonded with the City of Columbia Heights.
5.In order to obtain a building permit for this garage, a signed,
certified certificate of survey with the proposed structure shown, thedrainage indicated by arrows and proposed elevations indicated must be
submitted.
Council Representative Peterson stated that a current, signed Certificate
of Survey would be necessa�y to be submitted before any permits could be
issued.
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
REGULAR MEETING -MINUTES MAY 4, 1993 PAGE 4
Mr. Johnson asked the Commission if the five items stated were required of
everyone or if these were specifically designed for him. Council Rep. Peterson replied that the criteria is the same as would be required of anyone moving in a building.
It was the contention of the Commission that the style of the proposed garage would fit in well with the house and surrounding buildings.
Motion by Peterson, seconded by Fowler, to approve the site plan allowing the proposed detached garage to be moved onto the lot at 4229 Quincy Street provided the five items as stated by the Building Inspector are met. Roll Call: All Ayes.
E.Public HearingCond. Use Permit/VarianceCase #9305-41
Robert Proft 4911 Central Avenue Columbia Heights, Mn.
Evelyn Nygaard presented the request of Mr. Pro ft on behalf of a prospective buyer for a Conditional Use Permit and Variance to allow Mike Glynn of Brooklyn Heating and Air to purchase the property at 4911 Central Avenue and operate his business out of the accessory structure in the rear
while retaining the full use of the existing house as his residence. She informed the Commission that the property is located in the RB, Retail Business, District and, as a residence, is considered a non-conforming use
in that District. Under Section 9.113(2) (b) of the Conditional Use Section of the Retail Business District, dwelling units are allowed by Conditional Use Permit provided the dwelling unit does not occupy the first floor.
Ms. Nygaard informed the Commission that in October of 1985 Mr. Proft petitioned the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council for a Conditional Use Permit to allow the construction of the large accessory structure and its use for his home occupation of a sign construction
company. One of the conditions placed on Mr. Proft's Conditional Use Permit, in addition to those describing a Home Occupation and signage on the property, was that the CUP would NOT be transferable and would become
VOID if Mr. Proft is not living in the residence.
It was Staff's opinion that Mr. Glynn's proposed use clearly would not fit
the definition of a Home Occupation per the Zoning Ordinance. To approve
this request would clearly set a precedent as well as increasing a non
conforming use.
The definition of a Home Occupation per the Zoning Ordinance is as
follows:
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING -MINUTES
MAY 4, 1993 PAGE 5
1.When engaged in only by persons residing in the dwelling.2.Vhen the occupation does not require additional parking.3.Vhen evidence of the occupation is not visible from the street.4.When the principal structure becomes the base of the operation forthat occupation.
5.Vhen the occupation does not involve the retail sales on the site ofproducts produced off the site.
Council Representative Peterson was concerned that the building of ductwork from sheet metal would be very noisy and create a disturbance for the residences at the rear of the property. Mr. Glynn stated he would not be using any machines or large equipment for his operation but would be assembling ductwork from sheet metal. The building is well insulated with
no windows or doors on the back of the building so the sound transmission should be minimal. He stated that most of the work is done in the field. The building would basically be used to house furnaces, air conditioning units and other related i�ems.
Commissioner Szurek voiced concern that the Commission not violate any section of the Zoning Ordinance or any other City codes in this process if the request is approved.
Council Rep. Peterson stated that Mr. Proft could not meet only one requirement of the Home Occupation definition when he was approved in
1985. In his opinion, Mr. Glynn's proposal does not meet any of the five items to catagorize his use as a home occupation.
Attorny Bocwinski stated that the property is non-conforming to the Zoning District as it is. Mr. Glynn's proposed use does .not meet the requirements of the Home Occupation definition. There are few uses that
could fit this lot unless the house was razed and the property brought
into conformance.
Mr. Proft asked if the house was razed, could the accessory structure be used for a business. Evelyn Nygaard stated that the building would be required to conform to all zoning and building codes including bathroom
requirements of which there currently are none.
Council Rep. Peterson felt this case should be reviewed by the City Council. Because the minutes from the meetings of 1985 state that the Conditional Use Permit is not transferable and becomes void if the house
is not occupied by Mr. Proft plus the limitation placed on the signage, he
is lead to believe that there were some questions and concerns regarding
the approval.
Motion by Peterson, seconded by Fowler, to recommend to the City Council
the approval of the Conditional Use Permit and Variance due to the existing circumstances of the use of the property and the uniqueness of
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING -MINUTES MAY 4, 1993 PAGE 6
the parcel. Roll Call: All Ayes.
*THIS ITEM TO APPEAR ON THE MAY 24, 1993 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA .
4.STAFF REPORTS.
A.Tires Plus Conditional Use Amendment .
Evelyn Nygaard informed the Commission that Mr. Rasmussen, representing Tires Plus at 5126 Central Avenue was asking for input regarding a change to the enclosed dumpster location. She reminded the Commission of the concerns expressed by the representative-from St. Timothy's Church at the meeting in June of 1992 when the CUP was reviewed. The concerns encompassed the cleanliness of the lot as well as the maintenance of the property. When she made an inspection of the premises not long ago, she found the dumpster outside the required enclosure and a waste oil tank inside the dumpster enclosure. Tires Plus has added the service of oil changes and needed an area for the waste oil tank. She presented two drawings on behalf of Tires Plus that had been submitted as alternative solutions to the required dumpster enclosure problem.
Motion by Peterson, seconded by Szurek, to approve the garbage dumpster be combined in the enclosed tire storage area and the waste oil tank in the enclosure by itself. Roll Call: All Ayes.
B.Zero Lot Line Ordinance.
Evelyn Nygaard presented a request by the City Council for the review of a proposed "zero" lot line ordinance. This Zoning Ordinance amendment would allow existing qualifying side by side double bungalows to be legally "split" and become saleable as single, owner/occupied dwelling units. Owners of these buildings had been surveyed as to their interest in this type of change. She informed the Commission that of the 546 duplexes in the City, there appear to be 95 possible candidates for the "zero lot line".
Discussion followed on Ordinance content. It was the concensus of the Commission that the existing proposed Ordinance was insufficient to cover the needs of the City. A number of suggestions were made for additions including the following:
1.Restrict to unit being owner/occupied and not used as future rental.2.Draft a section covering maintenance of building including continuityof exterior upkeep (ie. roofing, siding, painting, etc.)3.Escrow account for maintenance.4.Section 9.108(2)(d)(7), add a requirement that the garage and-driveway
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSIONREGULAR MEETING -MINUTES MAY 4, 1993PAGE 7
construction must be completed prior to conversion to zero lot line singlefamily unit.
5. Any newly constructed units must meet the square footage requirementsof the Zoning Ordinance. 6. Sound transmission barrier must be installed between units, top tobottom, for all new construction.
The Commission directed the City Attorney's office to check if the changesthey have suggested are feasible, and to prepare these amendments to the proposed Ordinance to be presented to the City Council at the May 24, 1993meeting.
C.Accessory Structures
Evelyn Nygaard informed the Commission that Section 9.104(5) of the ZoningOrdinance pertaining to accessory structures does not address smallerutility buildings. She explained that for a number of years, Staff hasused certain procedures, not addressed by the Ordinance, to issue building permits for utility buildings under 120 square feet. If the size was over
120 square feet, a Conditional Use Permit was r equired. She felt it wasnecessary that Section 9.104(5) be amended to include these specialprocedures for utility buildings.
The Commission directed Evelyn Nygaard to draw up items to be addressedfor an amendment to Section 9.104(5) to add requirements for utilitybuildings under 120 square feet.
Motion by Fowler, seconded by Peterson, to adjourn the meeting at 8:30p.m. Roll Call: All Ayes.

"THESE MINUTES NOT APPROVED"
A.PUBLIC HEARING TO REMOVE "2 HR. PARKING" SIGNS ON 5TH ST.
FROM MILL ST. TO 40TII A VE.
A request has been made by Mr. Krause of 500 Summit St N.E. to remove "2
hr. parking" signs at 500 Summit St. N.E. No other requests for the removal
of these signs has been made. The signs were originally installed when
Minneapolis Electric Steel was fully occupied. Cmrently the building is not
being fully utilized and there is private parking available to the employees.
Motion by Clerkin, seconded by Goodman, to recommend to the City Council
that the "2 hr parking" signs on 5th St. from Mill St. to 40th Ave. be removed.
Roll Call: All ayes.
B.PARKING AT 40TH AVE. AND MILL ST.
Staff reviewed the request by the Fire Department that the location of the bus
stop at 40th Ave. and Mill St. be mov�d. Presently the MTC bus stops at the
comer of this intersection on 40th Ave. and when the Fire trucks are called out,
it makes it difficult for them to see eastbound traffic if a bus is at the stop.
Staff recommended that the existing no parking zone be extended 40' west
This would eliminate two parking spaces. There would be two 30-minute
parking spaces and two parking anytime spaces.
Commissioners Goodman and Carlson felt the City would be setting a
precedent and indicated that the bus is only stopped for such a short time it
shouldn't be a problem. They indicated they would like input from the Fire
Chief. He will be asked to attend the June meeting. The Police Chief will
also review the intersection and report back at the next meeting.

Motion by Cler.kin, seconded by Goodman, to table this item until the June 7th meeting. Roll Call: All ayes.
IV.OTIIER OID BUSINESS
Commissioner Goodman had asked why there aren't lane markings on the east side of
40th Ave and Central. There are on the west side. Staff indicated that the west side
lane has a designated right tum lane.
V.NEW BUSINESS
A.CIRCLE TERRACE
A member of the City Council requested that the Traffic Commission look at
the possibility of turning Circle Terrace into a one-way street due to school bus
concerns. Staff explained that the street width is insufficient to provide
adequate space for two-way traffic and parking on both sides. TheCommission commented that this item had been discussed previously with no
resolution, concern over increased speed if the street becomes one-way,emergency vehicle response concerns and complaints from residents.
Motion by Cler.kin, seconded by Goodman, to leave Circle Terrace as it is due
to insufficient public demand, safety risk of children in the area, and delay in
emergency response time that could occur. Roll call: All ayes.
VI.OTHER NEW BUSINESS
Four applications have been received for the vacant positions on the Traffic
Commission. Mr. Clerkin advised that City Council's review of the applications will
occur at the next work session.

A letter has just been received requesting the installation of a "Handicapped Parking" sign at 4216 7t.11 St N.E.
Motion by Goodman, seconded by Clerkin, to recommend the City Council approve the request for a "Handicapped Parking" sign at 4216 7th St. N.E. Roll Call: All ayes.
There will be a meeting of the Traffic Commission on June 7, 1993.
A request has just been received regarding the intersection at 41st Avenue and Cleveland Street. This item will be placed on the June agenda.
Mr. Winson provided an update on signalization of Central and 51st Court. A request was made to Mn/DOT and a verbal reply received this week. Mn/DOT indicated that in the last three years there have been 11 accidents at this intersection, none of which could have been prevented or avoided had there been a signal. They indicate there is not sufficient warrant for a signal. They did traffic counts at different times of the day and would be willing to look again at this issue at some future time.
Several complaints have also been received about the intersection at 53rd Ave. and T.H. 65. Motorists in the left lane on 53rd Ave. to north on T.H. 65 and then cut into the right land on T.H. 65 for the 1-694 exits. Mn/DOT has been contacted and have responded that they will be adding a sign on 53rd Ave. that says "To 694, Use Center Lane".
B.POLICE CHIEF
None
C.OTHER COMMISSIONERS
Mr. Clerkin asked about a public crosswalk from the parking lot to MurzynHall. Staff indicated that a public crosswalk tends to bring people to one
location to cross a street but it also gives a false sense of secu rity. It doesn•tnecessarily mean that tr"c.ffic is going to stop. The Ci� may not want to takeon the liability of a crosswalk. Staff will review this item and make a
recommendation at the next meeting_.

The Traffic Commission held a Public Hearing at 7 P.M. on May 3, 1993, to receive comments regarding the removal of the existing "2 Hr.
Parking" signs on 5th St. from Mill St. to 40th Ave. No one from the public commented on the item.
The signs were original ly installed when the Electric Steel building was fully occupied and there were problems with employees parking along the streets. Currently, the Electric Steel building is not being fully utilized and there is private parldng available to the employees.
Based on the lack of public comment and the change in the conditions that originally resulted in the signs being installed, the Traffic
Commission approved a motion to recommend that the signs be removed.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to remove the "2 Hr. Parking" signs on 5th St. from Mill St. to 40th Ave. based on the recommendation
of the Traffic Commission.

CITY MANAGER
B� DATE: S i4 (Cf.s
The Park and Recreation Commission has reviewed the situation surrounding the continued vandalism of the roof of the Sullivan Lake Park
picnic shelter. Instead of installing a new metal roof, the Commission is recommending that one section of the decorative arbors be removed
at each end of the picnic shelter in order to deter vandals from using these structures to access the shelter roof.
Staff agrees with the recommendation of the Commission and wishes to withdraw the request for authorization to seek bids to reroof the
shelter that was tabled at the April 12, 1993 Council meeting.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to deny authorization to seek bids for reroofing the Sullivan Lake Park Shelter and fmthermore to concur with recommendation of the Park and Recreation Commission to remove one arbor section at each end of the picnic shelter and to
reuse the salvaged material at another location, if appropriate.

CITY OF COLUMBIA HEIGHTS
TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: PAT HENTGES, CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: MANAGER'S REPORT
DATE: MAY 7, 1993
1)OPERATIONAL REPORTS FOR APRIL--
JO. A.
Attached are operational reports from various Division Heads indicating the significant items undertaken
or accomplished for the month of April. I trust you will find the reports to be informational and beneficial
with regard to major undertakings occurring within the divisions in this past reporting period.
2)COMMUNITY SERVICE WORKER HOURS--
During the month of April, staff utilized the following hours of volunteer service:
Administration/City Hall . . . . 51:40 hours -Community City Volunteer/ Anoka-Hennepin-Ramsey
Library . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 10:00 hours -Fare Share
Fire/Public Works . . . . . . . . . 0:00 hours -Anoka-Hennepin-Ramsey
61:40 hours -Total
3)SHARED RIDE RECAP--
See attached Shared Ride Expansion and Origination -Destination reports for the month of March, 1993.
4)SOUTHERN ANOKA COUNTY COMMUNITY CONSORTIUM--
Be advised that the Cities of Fridley, Hilltop, and Columbia Heights together with the respective school
districts have organized focus group interview meetings for the latter portion of May and early June.
Interview of citizens, activists, and business leaders in the community will be conducted in an effort to
formulate an inventory of issues and also strengths that the action plan will concentrate on. After the focus
group activities are complete, similar exercises will be conducted with City and school staffs. Also, the final
information will be individually reviewed with City Councils and School Board Members allowing
opportunity for their comment and further input. J believe this information will dovetail nicely into our
planning efforts for the Sheffield Neighborhood. Further, I have been impressed thus far with the efforts
of the Cities and School Districts to make this more than a study, but rather an action plan. Columbia
Heights focus groups are scheduled for May 26 and June 3, 1993. Again, these focus group meetings are
intended to be somewhat anonymous without City and School District participation. Hopefully, this will
promote more candid and open discussion by the participants.
5)IN-SERVICE TRAINING--
To date, the in -service staff training sessions have gone well. Please note, there are future in -service
training sessions scheduled on Non-Verbal Communications, Healthy Computing, Performance Evaluations,
Time Management in the Office, and Time Management in the Office.
MANAGER'S REPORT
Page 2
May 7, 1993
6)ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT--
I recently had an opportunity to meet with NSP officials involved in economic development marketing. The
fact that Columbia Heights is designated as a Gemini city for rate reduction incentives, make us somewhat
attractive for industries with heavy power usage. The City's stock of smaller industrial buildings and good
work force make us an attractive community for growing labor intensive industry. In fact, my discussion with
NSP and another building owner in the community have resulted in a couple of economic development leads.
I concur that our activity level may not constitute a "high powered" economic development marketing program
such as in Roseville or other larger communities, but a more intensive and organized commitment on the part
of the City could lead to expansion opportunities for the existing industries and siting of new, smaller type
industries. Moreover, an intensified commitment could result in an infill of commercial activity into vacant
door fronts.
Some of the economic development policy issues that could be studied by the City Council include:
a.Reorganizing the staff to better accommodate economic development activity, include focusing part of
a staff person's time to following up on leads;
b.Identify or clear an adequately-sized building site for new building purposes;
c.Work with existing industry to accommodate redevelopment expansion proposals;
d.Re-evaluate our economic development and financial incentive program to determine latitude in which
the City or HRA would assist new or existing business expansion.
7)NSP COMMUNITY INVESTMENT PROGRAM--
NSP recently has participated in number of housing rental programs that involve 40% equity participation by
NSP, piggybacked with Minnesota Housing Finance Agency (MHFA) financing and housing tax credits.
Though these projects have a low-income rental focus, most are developed as senior housing. I have included
information on a senior "cottage" project being developed under this format in Maplewood. Please advise me
as to any thoughts you have on pursuing such a project for Columbia Heights.
8)STINSON -37TH AVENUE BEAUTIFICATION PROJECT--
The various service clubs involved in the Stinson -37th Avenue railroad property beautification project have
met with a landscape designer to finalize their plans for the site. The contracts have been signed and returned
to the Soo Line Railroad. After a plan for the beautification project is finalized, I will forward a copy to the
·City Council for your information. They have scheduled June 19th as a date to undertake the project.
7)SOO LINE RAILROAD CROSSINGS--
Don Schneider and myself have met with various industries that have utilized the railroad spurs in the area of
Huset Park, Fifth Street, and 37th Avenue. The main challenge is to vacant the spur lines in'such a fashion
to assure rail access to Greif Brothers and the Steel Prep building. Ideally, the tracks would be consolidated
in a configuration to assure future maxim um development of the land along Fifth Street/31th Avenue. We have
scheduled a meeting with Sao Line officials to further discuss this project.
8)44TH/CENTRAL AVENUE BUS SHELTER--
All of the information has been sent to Super America on the City's request. As of today, we have not received
a response on the status of the bus shelter. I will keep you advised of any new developments in this area.
MANAGER'S REPORT
Page 3
May 7, 1993
9)POLICE/FIRE CIVIL SERVICE RULE REVISIONS--
I believe the City Council is aware that the Civil Service Commission is in the process of revising their police
and fire Civil Service Rules. Currently, information is being gathered from the League of Minnesota Cities
and similar surrounding communities. If you have any additional questions or thoughts in this matter, please
do not hesitate to contact Gerry Herringer who is heading up the process or City Attorney Gregg Woods.

l Events/ Accomplishments
A.April 22-24, 1993, our Explorer Post attended the annual Breezy Point Law Enforcement
Conference. Explorers from around the state gathered to compete in various academic
and practical events.
This year there were 445 young men and women at Breezy Point. Our Post placed fifth
in DUI-traffic, an academic event. A special thanks goes to Officers Steve Korts, Terry
Nightingale, and CSO Joe Sturdevant for their long hours of work with the Explorers.
I would also like to thank the Council for their continued generous support of the law
enforcement Explorer program.
B.On April 27, 1993, Sergeant Roddy, Officer Dietz, and I attended an all day workshop
hosted by the Office of Drug Policy. The purpose of the workshop was to review all
currently funded grant programs they have out in the state. We heard from large and
small towns, both within and outside of the metro area. The programs all varied
somewhat. They all dealt with some form of community policing. It was decided that
we, as a group, would try to organize and host a major community policing training
session for the state. I will be taking part in organization of this training.
II.Projects/Goals
A.I am completing the first quarter report. It should be forwarded to you soon.
III.Issues/Problems

RE: OPERATIONAL REPORT
APRIL 1993
DEPARTMENTAL GOALS:
1992 AUDIT
The auditors have completed the City's annual audit report in a rough draft format. All
that is left at this time is for staff to go through and approve the report. It is anticipated
that the final report will be issued to the City Council by mid-May.
1994 BUDGET PROCESS
All departmental budgets for 1994 have been turned in to the finance department.
Finance department staff are now preparing the first draft of the 1994 budget.
LIQUOR OPERATIONS
The grand opening of Top Valu Liquor at 2241 37th Avenue was April 28th through May
1st. Flyers for this grand opening were distributed with the Focus Newspaper, and a
small ad was placed in the Minneapolis Tribune. For the grand opening, Phil had
promotions on twelve major merchandise items. This generated a good turnout at both .
liquor stores.
For the first month of operation, the new liquor store had total sales of $52,537. This
was a very good start considering no advertising was done until April 28th. Based on the
pro formas that were presented to the Council in planning the new store, the sales for the
month of April were 42% of what the average monthly sales need to be for the store to
break even in the first year. As May and June start the busy summer season, it is
anticipated, based on the April sales, that we will easily make the break even point as
presented in the pro formas. I also feel that Phil Suckerman should be highly commended
for the excellent work he did in opening the new store. Phil's duties in opening the new
Operational Report
May 3, 1993
Page Two
store went well beyond the normal expectations of a liquor operations manager, and went
well beyond his job description. Remodeling of the store was done without the necessity
of hiring an architect or a general contractor to do the work. Phil assumed and undertook
all of these duties in an excellent manner, resulting in a significant savings to the City of
Columbia Heights.
ISSUES AND PROBLEMS:
HRA ACCOUNTING
Work is still being done with the HRA staff related to the City doing HRA 's accounting.
Finance department staff time being spent on this project is at least double the amount
estimated. If this cannot be improved in the upcoming months, it will be my
recommendation to significantly increase the accounting fees charged to HRA for 1994.
CITY TELEPHONE SYSTEM
As was previously reported, the voice mail system has been inoperative ever since an
employee flooded the phone room. At this time, the City's insurance company has made
a full settlement less the $1000 deductible in the City's property insurance policy. With
this settlement, I anticipate having voice mail back in operation within two or three
weeks.

I enjoyed the opportunity to have lunch the other day and discuss some of the community and
economic development issues you see facing Columbia Heights.
As promised, I am providing some materials on one of the elderly "cottage" projects financed
in part using the federal Low Income Housing Tax Credit, or LIHTC, that NSP is evaluating.
NSP is actively engaged in making direct investments in LIHTC projects.
Most projects typically include first mortgage financing provided either by a local financial
institution or the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency (MHFA). Many projects also include a
second mortgage, once again provided by a local financial institution or the MHF A. Direct
subsidies, such as a grant, or development assistance through tax increment financing are also
typically part of the financial package. The equity investment by private corporations or a
national "syndicator" completes the sources of funds.
In Minnesota, tax credits are awarded to projects by the MHFA. Mr. John Madson is a contact
at the MHFA for LIHTC projects. V.'e would be pleased to provide a list of developers who
are interested in or have experience developing "cottage" projects should you so desire.
Once again, it was a pleasure meeting you. If I can of further assistance, please contact me
at 330-5834.
Sincerely, K�
Kenneth E. Stabler
Administrator, Economic Development
