Activity Description
The Planning & Inspections Department ensures the public health, safety, and general welfare of the community through
implementation, administration, and enforcement of the City Zoning Code and the respective Minnesota State Building Codes.
The main activities of the Planning & Inspections Department include providing staff support to the Planning Commission;
implementing short and long-range planning policies that address the changing dynamics of social, political, and economic
environments; facilitating the implementation and administration of the Comprehensive Plan; conducting special projects for
the benefit of the community; serving as project managers for development and redevelopment projects; administering
FEMA requirements; issuing building, mechanical and plumbing permits, as well as contractor and business licenses; reviewing
building plans and construction documents; and inspecting the construction and installation of projects.
Objectives
City Goal - SAFE COMMUNITY & EXCELLENT HOUSING AND NEIGHBORHOODS
- Regulate building, mechanical and plumbing permits, as well as contractor and business licensure.
- Review building and mechanical plans.
- Conduct inspections for building, mechanical, and plumbing permits.
City Goal - ECONOMIC STRENGTH & EXCELLENT HOUSING AND NEIGHBORHOODS
- Provide project management and coordination for development projects.
- Provide staff assistance to the Planning Commission.
- Provide short and long-range community planning services.
- Lead various "special projects" related to city ordinance issues.
City Goal - STRONG INFRASTRUCTURE/ PUBLIC SERVICES
- Coordinate projects and programs with various outside agencies (Anoka County, FEMA, Met Council, MnDOT, etc.)
Budget Comments on Proposed Budget
The Planning and Inspections Fund decreased by $9,535 from 2020 to 2021. In 2021, the City's general levy will continue to
support the operations of the Planning and Inspections department.
PERSONAL SERVICES:
Personal Services will decrease by $15,900. This reduction is related to two primary staffing changes within the department.
First, there will be 5% less CD Director staff time allocated to this fund in 2021. Secondly, one of the Administrative Assistant
positions has been reduced to part-time. The part-time Administrative Assistant is participating in a phased retirement plan
with the department that will allow for the training of the new full-time Administrative Assistant.
SUPPLIES:
The Supplies budget will increase by $1,100 to adequately reflect the anticipated work load of the department.
OTHER SERVICES CHARGES:
Other Services and Charges will increase by $4,740 to adequately reflect the anticipated work load of the department, and
account for scheduled increases in Property and Liability Insurance, Information System Services, and Subscription and
Membership costs.

Activity Description
The Economic Development Authority coordinates several activities that both directly and indirectly act as a catalyst for
improving the community's overall quality of life, business vitality, and economic performance. The main activities of
Economic Development Authority staff include providing support to the Columbia Heights Economic Development Authority
and the Housing & Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Columbia Heights; leveraging public and private
partnerships to increase the amount of reinvestment within the City; serving as project managers for development and
redevelopment projects; writing and maintaining grants from governmental agencies and corporate institutions; preparing
and maintaining Tax Increment Financing, Tax Abatement, and Private Activity Bond records; developing and implementing a
Business Retention & Expansion program; managing housing programs; and facilitating the acquisition and conveyance of city
owned properties.
Objectives
City Goal - ECONOMIC STRENTH & EXCELLENT HOUSING AND NEIGHBORHOODS
- Implement goals and objectives of the Economic Development Authority
- Monitor and implement housing programs to ensure neighborhood reinvestment is occurring.
- Develop and implement programs that work to increase assessed property values.
- Enhance business opportunities with the City.
- Develop and implement a Business Retention & Expansion program.
City Goal - AFFORDABILITY
- Work to ensure that high -quality, affordable housing options are available for all residents.
Budget Comments on Proposed Budget
The Economic Development Authority Fund increased by $15,425 from 2020 to 2021. To accommodate this increase, the EDA
levy will have to be increased by 3.9%, or $9,525 for 2021.
PERSONAL SERVICES:
Personal Services will increase by $15,900 due to three primary changes within the CD department. First, there will be 5% less
staff time for the CD Director allocated to Fund 201, Planning and Inspections. This means that EDA Fund 204 will see a 5%
increase in staff time attributed to the Director position. Secondly, both the CD Director and Community Development
Coordinator are planned to receive step increases in 2021. Finally, EDA Fund 204 will transfer out $11,468 to the
Administrative department to contribute to the funding of the newly created Communications and Events Specialist position.
SUPPLIES:
Supplies will increase by $1,370 to properly address the anticipated work load.
OTHER SERVICES AND CHARGES:
Other Services and Charges will decrease by $2,370 due to decreases in Expert and Professional Services, Property and Liability
Insurance, Telephone, and Training and Education.

Activity Description
The Downton Parking Fund operates to increase the economic viability of the Central Business District and maintain its livable
qualities. This fund administers the management, operation, and maintenance of the two municipal parking ramps located at
950 40th Avenue NE and 4011 Van Buren Street NE, Columbia Heights, MN, a total of 679 parking stalls.
In 2019, the City's Economic Development Authority acquired the vacant six story office building located at 3989 Central
Avenue for redevelopment. 3989 Central Avenue is located next to the municipal ramp at 950 40th Avenue which provides
parking for the vacant office building. As part of the redevelopment plans for 3989 Central, the municipal ramp at 950 40th
Avenue is scheduled to be demolished in 2020. Therefore, the 2021 Downtown Parking Fund budget accounts solely for the
remaining municipal ramp at 4011 Van Buren Street.
Objectives
City Goal - STRONG INFRASTRUCTURE/ PUBLIC SERVICES
- Administer the management, operation, and maintenance of the municipal parking ramps.
Budget Comments on Proposed Budget
The Downtown Parking Fund will increase by $31,200. This increase reflects a structural change in the operation and
maintenance agreement for the municipal ramp located at 4011 Van Buren Street.
The primary user of the ramp at 4011 Van Buren Street is Fairview Health Services, as the adjacent Fairview clinic at 4000
Central Avenue has limited parking and relies on the ramp for nearly all of its parking needs. The 2020 budget anticipated the
renewal of an operations and maintenance agreement with Fairview's former landlord, Columbia Park Properties, LLP.
However, in late 2019, the City was informed that Fairview Health Services had purchased their building and that they were
interested in renegotiating the terms of the parking agreement. The new agreement in place for 2021 has Fairview Health
Services leasing 130 parking spaces in the ramp directly from the City. Under the previous agreement, the City reimbursed
Fairview for operational expenses related to the ramp. The new lease revenue represents the total fund increase of $31,200.
