PUBLIC HEARINGS
16. Consideration of Resolution 2021-68 for a Variance to Allow for the Construction of an
Attached Garage with Front Yard Setback Encroachments Located at 4161 Polk Street NE
Planner Hark reported that the applicant requested a Variance for a proposed attached
garage to be located at 4161 Polk Street NE and is proposing to demolish the existing
detached singlestall garage on the property and construct an attached standard garage
which measures 928 square feet in size on the north side of the home.
7
Item 1.
City of Columbia Heights MINUTES August 9, 2021
City Council Meeting Page 4
The applicant seeks a variance for the following: 1) Variance to allow the accessory
structure (attached garage) to be constructed and located within the front yard. City Code
Section 9.106 (C) (1) (b) stipulates that “No accessory structure shall be constructed or
located within any front yard,” while City Code Section 9.106 (C) (1) (c) stipulates that
“Accessory structures for one- and two-family dwellings shall be…behind the principal
structure building line in the front yard.” 2) Variance to allow the accessory structure
(attached garage) to be constructed and located with a front yard setback less than 25 feet.
City Code Section 9.109 (C) stipulates a 25-foot front yard setback for residential buildings.
As a corner lot that abuts a diagonal street, there are unique setback requirements that
apply to the subject property in relation to neighboring lots. In consideration of corner lots,
the City Code states that the lot line having shortest dimension of street frontage is
considered the front lot line. Thus, the site’s north lot line, along 42nd Avenue, is
considered the front and is therefore subject to a minimum required building setback of 25
feet. The west lot line along Polk Street NE is subsequently considered a side lot line, from
which a minimum 10-foot building setback is required. The required setback from Polk
Street NE is considered unique in that other homes located along the street that are south
of the subject site are subject to a 25-foot setback along the same street. The attached
garage is proposed to be located 17.2 feet from the north front property line. This location
is considered to be in front of the principal structure building line in the front yard.
The use of the property as a residential home complies with the Zoning Code. The
Comprehensive Plan guides this area for residential development. The proposed garage is
consistent with the goals and intent of the Comprehensive Plan. The subject property is
not located in a Design Guidelines District.
The proposed project was circulated amongst appropriate City Staff for review. The
Building Official provided conditions of approval, and the Public Works Department
addressed issues pertaining to stormwater runoff. In review of the applicant’s site plan,
application, and other relevant materials, Staff finds the Variance request to be reasonable
and will not negatively impact the health, safety, or welfare of the City, its residents, and
property owners. On August 4, 2021 the Planning Commission held a public hearing and
unanimously voted (with two absences) to recommend approval to the City Council on this
matter. Thus, Staff recommends that the City Council approve the Variance as presented,
subject to certain conditions.
Mayor Márquez Simula opened the public hearing.
No one, other than the applicant, was present to speak.
Motion by Councilmember Buesgens, seconded by Councilmember Novitsky, to close the
public hearing and waive the reading of Resolution 2021-68, there being ample copies
available to the public. All Ayes, Motion Carried 5-0.

Carried 5-0.
17. Consideration of Resolution 2021-62, Revocation of the License to Operate Rental Units
Within the City of Columbia Heights Against the Rental Property at 600 51 st Avenue NE
for Failure to Meet the Requirements of the Residential Maintenance Codes
Mayor Márquez Simula reported that the City Council on July 26, 2021 held a public
hearing regarding revocation of the license to operate rental units at 600 51st Avenue NE
and voted to table final action on the revocation to the August 9, 2021 meeting to allow
the property owner additional time to bring the property into compliance.
Assistant Chief O’Brien reported that the property was inspected on August 3, 2021 and
was found to be in compliance with City Code and Staff recommends that the City Council
deny the motion to revoke the license to operate rental units at that location.
Motion by Councilmember Jacobs, seconded by Councilmember Murzyn, Jr., to waive the
reading of Resolution 2021-62, there being ample copies available to the public. All Ayes,
Motion Carried 5-0.
Motion by Councilmember Jacobs, seconded by Councilmember Murzyn, Jr., to deny
Resolution 2021-62, being a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Columbia Heights
approving revocation pursuant to City Code, Chapter 5A, Article IV, Section 5A.408(A) of the
rental license listed, as the Licensee has resolved all outstanding compliance issues. All
Ayes, Motion Carried 5-0.

Councilmember Novitsky said National Night-Out was a great night, and he was able to attend six
parties; he encouraged residents to continue to get to know their neighbors because it does help.
Councilmember Jacobs reported the Salvation Army’s board began their backpack and school supplies
drive, and she said residents wishing to donate may do so at 2727 Central. Attended the media
security training. Attended Representative Feist’s live forum on education. Attended the swearing -in
ceremony for Officers Frankie and Trevor, adding that she was pleased to see candid ates coming from
the City and “it is a tough culture and means a lot to see these young people come forward.”
Acknowledged Scott Schulte’s “Love Where You Live” campaign, which encourages all to shop , utilize
recreation opportunities, activities, vendors and facilities of Anoka County; and she said that she
especially wanted to point out that the focus should be on Columbia Heights as well. Continued to
volunteer at SACA and said the thrift store is finally open; masks are now being mandated, and each
customer is being asked to cover both their nose and mouth. On August 15, 2021 there will be a brief
history at 50th and Monroe about that area of the City, which will be hosted by Thomas Sullivan, who is
a great great grandson of one of the original settler s of Columbia Heights; she is disappointed that she
will be unable to attend. Attended several locations for National Night-Out with Officer Momberg and
saw many new faces. Attended the third and final “Music in the Park” and said “the music was great
and interaction with residents prior to the event is always rewarding.” Citing ICC Summer Jam, she
said she posted an article on Facebook about an 11-year-old young man “who is the biggest and most
dedicated Beatles fan.” She shadowed one of the City street crews 7:00 am to noon on Friday while
they did street repairs on 40th by Circle Terrace; she said it was a great crew and she is always pleased
to be with them, with special shout-out to Ben, Janelle, Jackie, Jake, Matthew and David – adding that
she rode with Matt to pick up a load of asphalt, they laid 16,000 pounds and “the sun stayed behind
the clouds until the first truck came over with the asphalt and it was hot.” She said the fix was delayed
45 minutes Friday morning because one car was parked on the street where the crew needed to work,
so that impacted their work – and “they deal with a lot and are very patient and professional – far
more so than I would have been, I think, under those circumstances.” Congratulated all Olympians,
especially the Minnesotans, and said they made everyone proud. Both dinner and dance tickets are
still available for the Lions’ “Speakeasy” on September 18, 2021.
Councilmember Buesgens attended the Council’s media training. Attended the swearing-in for Francis
Rodriguez Soto and Trevor Norleon. Attended three National Night-Out parties and said it is always
fun to speak with the residents. Continued to volunteer at Blooming Sunshine Garden, where there
are now peppers and lots of greens that residents may pick for free if interested at Lomiaki Park.
Attended the “Music in the Park” event, which was nice, and said residents “really lucked out this
summer with good nights for the events and the food trucks there were fantastic.”
Report of the City Manager
Manager Bourgeois reported that Finance Director Joe Kloiber reported that a dozen commercial
customers needed to have their radios changed out on their water meters, so Public Works staff
performed a door-knocking campaign and all were then completed. She acknowledged foreperson
Sherri Jensen and superintendent Jim Hoth and said, because of the upgrade, the benefit is that now
the Utilities staff doesn’t have to bring two readers with them every time they go out to read meters.
There were 150 people who attended the last “Music in the Park.”

WORK SESSION ITEMS
1. Parks/Fireworks/Nuisance Discussion
Bourgeois reported that at the last work session the Council had a brief discussion
regarding fireworks and disrespectful activities in our parks. At that time, staff mentioned
being in the process of putting together information on parks use and rentals a nd issues
related to those. Staff from Police, Public Works, and Recreation have been putting
together information and discussing options to address the issues and are ready to present
the information and options to address some of the issues with the Council.
Austin referenced the recent July 4 issues at Huset Park related both to crime and disorder
problems. Throughout the City as a whole, there has been an increase in a disregard to
order and lack of respect of citizens towards other citizens and the police, which he thinks
has been driven by a lack of consequences, civil unrest from the past 18 months, the
pandemic and how it has impacted the court system. There has been an increase in crimes
this year compared to last, and this has been seen in every city in Minnesota. Some
notable comparison statistics he cited between the two years included: 48% increase (43
compared to 29) in aggravated assaults (great bodily harm or weapon involved), 31%
decrease (11 from 16) in robberies, 28% decrease in burglaries as well as a decrease in
thefts/larcenies. There has been a big change (17 YTD this year from 24 in 2020 and 8 in
2019 for the entire years) in vehicle pursuits, which is a similar phenomena in all of the
Metro area. There have been a number of firearm calls, seizures and weapons violations
(200% increase compared to 2020). 17% increase (75 from 64) in auto thefts and/or
recovered stolen vehicles over 2020 YTD and 103% increase over 2019. There has been a
little increase in misdemeanor assaults.

Item 2.
City of Columbia Heights MINUTES August 2, 2021
City Council Work Session Page 2
The BCA release of the 2020 Uniform Crime Reports cited a 16% increase in violent crime
compared to 2019, and motor vehicle thefts statewide are up 20%. The two biggest
statistics that are very concerning are the number of officer -related shootings (31 in 2020
compared to 37 in 2019 in Minnesota and evenly split between outstate and Metro) and
the number of assaults on officers (667 in 2020, a 62% increase compared to 2019 and the
largest number ever recorded in the State). There has not been an officer-involved
shooting in Columbia Heights since 2016; however, two officers were recently spit on by
person was in crisis. He has a number of videos he would like to share with the Council
that would show some of the things that the Police Department is dealing with. He said he
believes eventually it will get better but is something that must be dealt with now, also
citing two recent large fights at the Anoka County Fair. Another trend that he cannot recall
having to deal with is when responding to major incide nts, when the crime scene is being
rushed and additional officers have to be called in to secure the scene.
Austin expects that it will take some time, likely a year, to get better; but he emphasized
the dilemma with the current court system. Until it is up and fully operational and there is
some accountability in the courts, there will continue to be the problems cited earlier. It is
his understanding that misdemeanor assaults and misdemeanor DWIs will be addressed
this year and everything else is getting pushed into next year. He said that whatever
happens in Minneapolis from a crime and disorder perspective, it has a direct impact on
everything the Columbia Heights Police Department does. With the current significant
staffing challenges, he doesn’t believe the Minneapolis Police Department will be back to
normal from 2020 for the next several years. Right now, the City’s Police Department is
short staffed, as are many other cities, but he anticipates being in good shape by the end
of the year. Programs such as Neighborhood Watch, other community groups, Public
Works, Fire Department, Community Development, Park and Recreation will all help to get
through this period.
Buesgens asked whether additional staff have been hired to help the courts get c aught up,
and Austin said he was unaware but believes they are striving to do what they can to catch
up.
Markham displayed nighttime City park photos (Ramsdell Park pool, Silver Lake Beach,
Silver Lake Beach porta-potty and pavilion, Sullivan Park, Huset Park East basketball court,
and Huset Park West near Murzyn Hall, and Labelle Park) and reported that he had
reviewed their degrees of lighting, in particular those with pavilions, and said some of
those that Public Works has revamped are in good shape but some still need to have
expanded lighting. He prefers the clear, more natural LED lighting because clothing
description at night is important and fluorescent lighting distorts clothing color. He thinks
no changes are necessary at LaBelle Park but would like to swap outdated park lights with
LED lights and install solar-powered LED lights in pavilions.

Item 2.
City of Columbia Heights MINUTES August 2, 2021
City Council Work Session Page 3
Jacobs inquired about the Huset Park East bridge, where there is currently no lighting, and
Markham said his preference would be to update all outdated lighting. Jacobs then asked
whether power could be shut off on a timer to the pavilion outlets, and Hansen said they
would have to be rewired. Markham added that Wi-Fi capability attracts people.
Buesgens asked about Keyes. Markham said there isn’t a pavilion there and it was one of
the recent parks that was redone in 2018. Hansen added that there isn’t a lot of activity
there.
Jacobs asked about Circle Terrace. Markham said there have been some problems there,
with damage to the building and some garbage left behind. Cameras are being replaced
with those that can’t be damaged so easily, and other mitigation actions are being
considered.
Buesgens asked about the highest-use parks, the highest being Huset, and Markham said
the department receives more calls there and then displayed the types of cases for all the
parks.
Markham said he is a big proponent of infrared cameras and technology is a great asset in
solving crimes, as being able to pull up videos for review and legitimate proof. Cameras
being considered include Huset Park and the Library.
Márquez Simula asked for confirmation that lighting being considered is City owned and
not privately owned, and Markham confirmed that. She then asked whether a private
home would be videotaped it a camera was directed, as an example, a park pool. Markham
said the company doing the software for the camera system goes on site to cover just the
vulnerable areas of the park. He added that the part s of the project include both camera
and electrical installation, which run off different voltages. Hansen briefly described the
needed requirements for various sites. Markham said he would be speaking with the
vendor about adding two outside cameras on Murzyn Hall. With the new City Hall being
built within the year, he thinks no cameras are needed on the old City Hall – since camera
directions on Murzyn Hall could be adjusted to view a good portion of the City Hall.
Markham reported that the $61,000 quote is for Murzyn Hall’s cameras installation, which
include the back side facing east and another on the southeast side, and others at Huset
Park to get the most coverage. If any changes are made to Huset Park, cameras can be
moved. Cameras were being considered at Sullivan, but the network isn’t set up there; and
it was determined that they would be more useful at the Library. Increasing camera
coverage on Central Avenue is a priority, as are cameras in the Library parking lot along
with the cell tower. The proposal for the Library is $27,000.
Márquez Simula thinks cameras, as a budget item, initially won’t deter crime unless there is
a lot of signage that says, “Smile, you’re on camera.”
14
Item 2.
City of Columbia Heights MINUTES August 2, 2021
City Council Work Session Page 4
Markham commented that it may deter some, but the message would definitely get out if
crimes are solved using the cameras.
Buesgens asked whether cameras would be visible, and Markham confirmed so.
Jacobs asked whether the cameras would be caged for protection, and Markham said they
have a protective dome over them – and if someone damaged the dome, it could be
replaced fairly cheaply.
Austin said every time a study analysis of crime is done to property of any kind, lighting is
one of the big things to focus on. With that and the cameras, he thinks it a couple of good
tools for the toolbox.
Buesgens said once the housing moratorium is over, there may be more problems with
park issues.
Jacobs inquired as to which budget the funds would be allocated from. Markham said it
would come out of the operating budget for the camera. She then asked about
maintenance, and he said 180 cameras have great quality and are inexpensive and easy to
install and maintain.
Buesgens asked about what is covered with the quotes. Markham said they include labor
and installation – and the only thing not covered is running additional electricity.
Márquez Simula asked whether there would be any storage fees, and Markham said there
would be none – just the City’s, having enough ports for camera usage.
Jacobs said a lot of work went into the lighting analysis and said she appreciated it. She
then asked whether signs would be posting alerting users that cameras have been
installed. Austin cameras are pretty visible. Markham added that, as an example, if
owners have surveillance cameras that are installed but not used, then they are liable for
any lawsuits.
Referring to a question Buesgens had earlier in the session about a recent noise complaint
she had received, Austin said there were about 300 people in one of the buildings on 40 th,
believed to be 704. Jacobs shared information she had received from a nearby resident of
the area. Austin said it took, with the help of Fridley officers because some City officers
were involved in a significant domestic call, about 45 minutes to clear the “pop -up party”
site the evening the noise complaint occurred. Officers ar e still working on the case,
following up with the owner in trying to determine the nature of the violation and what
exactly occurred, and will then, with the help of the City Attorney, determine what action is
needed.
15
Item 2.
City of Columbia Heights MINUTES August 2, 2021
City Council Work Session Page 5
Jacobs asked if it could be determined if those responsible were from out of town, and
Markham said the procedure will be to backtrack whether it’s te nant or who owns the
building. Buesgens preferred that the owner of the building ultimately be held responsible.
Park Policy Changes and John P Murzyn Hall Senior Center Rental Policy Changes
Hansen reported an uptake in park maintenance and cleanup, some parks more than
others, due to lack of respect and care by users. An analysis will be done in the fall to
determine whether the correct amount is being charged for park rentals, but it has been
noted that parks with shelters are those that are most often being misused. Because of the
splash pad and shelter rentals and lack of seasonal workers, two Public Works staffers are
needed on the weekends for maintenance and cleanup. Egging, which Public Works
documents with the Police Department, has increased over the last two years. Will go
back to the Park and Recreation Commission to report this and look at rental fees park by
park. The biggest park usage is at Huset, but Silver Lake Beach as well on weekends. Friday
shelter rentals has increased and requires more staffing on Saturday morning to get ready
for Saturday rentals. Another problem that’s come to his attention is when someone has
reserved a shelter, another party may make an unscheduled appearance.
Márquez Simula inquired about Public Works attention to garbage. Hansen said his staff as
seen it all, where both empty and full garbage bins have garbage scattered all around
them. Windschitl added that shelter users are supposed to clean up their areas afterwards
and said he’s gone out over the last couple months with a chart which cites who has rented
them, trying to eliminate usage overlapping. He thinks some residents don’t realize they
can rent shelters. Hansen added that his staff monitors daily any location that has a water
feature to check chlorine levels and ensure any splash pad is operating correctly.
Jacobs asked whether permanent signs could be posted at the pavilions announcing “You
must rent the pavilion,” so users know they have to rent the shelter before advertising its
location to attendees. Hansen said it was discussed at a Park and Recreation Commission
meeting, and it was suggested best to display “Please check that this shelter is available for
rental.” Márquez Simula said it had been discussed at Circle Terrace, having staff unlock a
window to post a sign as to what is happening that week, including how to reserve a
shelter and contact information. Jacobs thinks the more verbiage on a sign, the less likely it
will be read. Hansen said he could discuss it with the Park and Recreation Commission.
Buesgens asked how other cities address overlapping shelter usage. Windschitl cited, as an
example, that Minneapolis park police monitor their shelters. She suggested that staff
contact neighboring cities to see how they address the issue.
Hansen said, with the decline of the river level, the DNR and Minneapolis may enact
further water restrictions, so the City may have to shut down the splash pad to reduce
water usage. Novitsky agrees that it would be a good idea to shut it down because it
doesn’t circulate water. Márquez Simula suggested a sign designating days and/or hours of
operation should the splash pad need to be partially closed.
16
Item 2.
City of Columbia Heights MINUTES August 2, 2021
City Council Work Session Page 6
Buesgens said it might be best to just shut it down and then asked how many gallons of
water the splash pad uses, and Hansen cited 7 million gallons per year, averaging about
70,000 gallons per day during the typical 100 days of operation. It was group consensus to
recommend shutting the splash pad down and restricting resident water usage to only
newly-planted trees or grass seeds.
Reviewing rentals, Buesgens prefers non-resident fees doubled to $200, to cover the cost
of cleanup. Windschitl said most rentals are done over the phone and it is hard to
determine if an actual resident is making the reservation, as a nonresident could use a
resident’s name; if reserving in person, an ID could be used to verify residency.
Park Policy Changes and John P Murzyn Hall Senior Center Rental Policy Changes
Windschitl reported that the Park and Recreation Commission at their June 23 meeting
recommended changes to be proactive and update the policy to prevent any potential
problems during rentals:
Park reservations end at 8:00 pm
All park reservations be placed in a maximum of four-hour increments (no
back-to-back reservations)
Change the Fee Scale for park reservations for nonresidents be increased from $75
to $100, including tax
Change all John P. Murzyn Hall Senior Center rentals to end by 7:00 pm
Limit Senior Center rentals to a 50-person maximum
Only snacks (no dinners) served in the Senior Center
Novitsky asked if the Boosters need to find a different spot because they start at 7:00 pm,
and Windschitl said they would not need to do so.
Park Rental Fee
Márquez Simula asked if the $125 fee would remain the same for groups over 100 people.
Windschitl said the Park and Recreation Commission decided not to change the fee
because it likely occurs only one or two times per year.
Jacobs also prefers that the nonresident fee be doubled. Buesgens agreed and said any
rental fee should cover the cost of cleanup, especially with the lack of seasonal staff , and
thinks the resident rental fee is too low. Novitsky said he agreed that the nonresident fee
should be doubled.
Windschitl cited the current shelter rental fees are $50 for resident, $75 for nonresident,
and $125 for groups over 100. Jacobs said she would be fine with a $150 nonresident fee if
it would cover the cost of cleanup.
17
Item 2.
City of Columbia Heights MINUTES August 2, 2021
City Council Work Session Page 7
Hansen said he thinks $150 nonresident fee would cover the cost of cleanup if it’s not an
unusual event.
Buesgens also requested that staff, when surveying neighboring communities, ask how
those cities verify non-residency versus residency when making reservations. Jacobs
suggested that staff mandate those making reservations do so in person, rather than on
the phone, in order to ensure residency. Windschitl said he was unsure whether the City
would want to do that, given that online reservations are becoming more popular.
Márquez Simula suggested those making reservations via phone email a copy of their
photo ID or driver’s license to confirm residency. Novitsky said he didn’t think renters
would want to share their personal information in order to rent a park shelter. Windschitl
will survey neighboring cities as Council requested.
It was Council consensus to approve the $150 nonresident shelter rental fee and add the
subject to the August 9 City Council Meeting agenda.
2. Replacement of Cabinetry in Police Department
Austin reported that the building is about 12 years old now and so wear-and-tear is
beginning to show up in certain areas. His department has done a good job with upkeep
on the outside and next year carpeting will likely be replaced, painting touchup, etc. A few
areas needing help include millwork that is showing significant wear.
Markham said the largest quote item coming in at $21,642 is for cubbies right outside of
the garage that officers and community-service officers use, called duty bags to use during
their shifts. Those are made with MDF board with laminate over them and they are in
disrepair, and the plan would be to replace them with powder-coated steel cubbies that
need to be specifically built for the existing space – but should last a lifetime. The cabinets
in the gun range are of the same material, where ammunition and other items are stored,
and are also in disrepair and cannot be locked any longer; the plan would also be to replace
them with powder-coated steel cabinets and would be specifically built for the existing
space at a quote of $3,875 – and should also last a lifetime. It’s his understanding the
current stainless steel countertop will be secured to the top of the new cabinets. The
planned upgrades would come out of the operating budget.
Novitsky thinks it is a worthwhile improvement. Knowing MDF is not indestructible,
Márquez Simula said it would still be interesting to see photos of the existing cubbies and
cabinets – but is not asking to see them before approving the upgrades. Markham will
email photos to the Council. Austin said the subject will be added to the next City Council
Meeting Consent Agenda.
3. Designate Four-Hour Parking – Huset Park Parking Lots
Hansen reported there is code enforcement activity going on in different areas of the City,
and the evening’s discussion would concern “area one.” Staff is seeing business parking in
Huset Park parking lots, and the goal is to eliminate business parking in City parks.
18
Item 2.
City of Columbia Heights MINUTES August 2, 2021
City Council Work Session Page 8
Huset Park has three parking lots within it, and he believes businesses may go from one lot
to another if all three are not addressed at the same time.
The primary lot is right off of Huset field five, another smaller parallel lot is on the west side
Jefferson, and the third is the Quincy Avenue lot. Hansen said staff didn’t want to include
Murzyn Hall parking in this plan. Hansen thinks limiting parking to the suggested hours
below will not limit scheduled events within the park, and the plan would be to post signs
along the perimeter. Staff’s recommendation is to preserve the park space for park use
and limit business use of park space, designating both Huset East and Huset West lots and
the Quincy lot as “Four-Hour Parking.” This limit would be designated from 8:00 am to
4:00 pm.
Novitsky asked if violated vehicles would be towed. Austin said the current plan would be
to ticket them, which would be similar to the current six-hour violations and are not towed
unless 24 hours have passed. For clarification, the vehicles in question are those of
customers that businesses are moving to the lots, not business staff vehicles. As of this
date, a ticket would go to the registered owner, not the business. Novitsky cited a
potential problem if a vehicle being parked by a business would be in violation, get
ticketed, but the business owner would pull the ticket and not inform the registered owner
who was being serviced; and Austin said he has not come across that issue in the past but
would be addressed if that should occur. State statute does not allow an immediate
tag-and-tow of a vehicle in violation unless it is a danger or obstructing, though there is a
municipal exception under certain circumstances. Bourgeois clarified that this is being
done concurrently with zoning code, to ensure that taxpayer dollars are not being used for
non-City business. The subject will be added to the next City Council Meeting Consent
Agenda.
4. Amending City Code Relating to On-Sale Intoxicating Liquor Licensing
Hark reported the City’s current On-Sale Intoxicating Liquor Licensing does follow the State
statute. In summary, the licensing may be issued to hotels, restaurants, bowling centers
and clubs or congressionally chartered veteran organizations; but, after further analysis,
staff determined that the City Code needs to be amended for further clarification. The
evening’s discussion will address mainly section 8.2 that concerns restaurants.
Two Columbia Heights businesses, Jimmy’s Pro Billiards and Soiree, have requested an
amendment to City’s On-Sale Intoxicating Liquor Licensing Code to allow for consideration
of an on-sale license for their establishments. Current code dictates that restaurants have
a minimum seating of 150 guests at one time and dining area with a minimum floor area of
3,000 SF; both cited establishments cannot currently meet those stated requirements. A
consultant analyzed neighboring city codes, with some having a smaller seating
requirement, no square footage minimum but rather use minimum annual food sale
percentages, a combination of requirements, and no restrictions at all.
Staff described possible amendment options. Aligning with State statute, Jimmy’s Pro
Billiards needs to be classified as a restaurant.
19
Item 2.
City of Columbia Heights MINUTES August 2, 2021
City Council Work Session Page 9
Staff preference is to eliminate any floor area of minimum dining number of guest
requirements because it would open up opportunity for City businesses to compete
regionally. The intent would not be for liquor to outweigh the food, however. The key
difference between the two preferred options below is the 5% ratio.
Amend the Code to eliminate the dining floor area and minimum number of guests for
restaurants and continue to require restaurants having a full license to have 60% food
sales and 40% liquor sales. Sales reporting must be documented and presented to the
City with each renewal of the liquor license.
Amend the Code to eliminate the dining floor area and minimum number of guests for
restaurants and amend the requirement for restaurant with on -sale liquor licenses to
meet minimum gross sales of 55% food, not to exceed 45% liquor sales. Sales reporting
must be documented and presented to the City with each renewal of the liquor license.
Jacobs preferred the 60% food and 40% liquor sales option. Novitsky said he could support
either option, though the 55%-45% option would be easier for Jimmy’s Pro Billiards to
comply. Chirpich clarified that, in the City’s current code, bowling alley sales can be
combined with food sales in order to reach, as an example, the 60% food sales minimum;
and staff thought billiards, to provide a buffer, would be similar to bowling alleys. Jimmy’s
is trying to expand his restaurant capacity and emphasize food.
Buesgens is glad staff is proposing eliminating the dining floor area minimum and prefers
the 55%-45% option, which would provide some breathing room for businesses.
Márquez Simula prefers the 55%-45% because of the price differential between food and
liquor sales, as an example, a burger costing $9 and two beers totaling $10. Novitsky
added that liquor sales would cost even more.
Council consensus was to move forward with the proposed amendments. Hark will also
include a wine section and eliminate the Limited Intoxicating Liquor License section.
Márquez Simula requested that language be updated, citing a couple specific examples,
and Hark will review and update as needed.
Jacobs inquired as to whether a business has the ability to ask for a variance. Chirpich said
it would not apply.
Buesgens asked what section a business offering art and a glass of wine, not selling food,
would fall under; and Hark cited the current code that applies. It was also confirmed that
no bars are currently allowed within the City. Buesgens asked how a new business coming
in that wanted to offer wine, such as above, would be able to do so. Hark said it would
involve amending the On-Sale Wine License to eliminate food, and Buesgens said she
would like to be proactive so action wouldn’t be dependent on a business request. Jacobs
preferred there be some form of food requirement in such an amendment.
20
Item 2.
City of Columbia Heights MINUTES August 2, 2021
City Council Work Session Page 10
Hark and Chirpich will analyze further according to State statutes and bring before the
Council at one of their upcoming August meetings.
5. Proposed Changes to the City’s Tobacco Ordinance
Hark reported that the City has begun the process of amending City Code to address the
potential restriction or ban of flavored tobacco, along with the potential elimination or
minimization of penalties for underage possession, use and/or purchase of tobacco
products to help combat this global issue. City staff collaborated with the Public Health
Law Center and the Association for Nonsmokers-Minnesota on prospective ordinance
changes that would address these issues. Regional review revealed that proactive
municipalities typically follow one of two regulations: the restriction of flavored tobacco
sales or the complete prohibition of flavored tobacco sales.
The following options are proposed for the Council to consider in regulating flavored
tobacco sales: 1) no change, 2) prohibit the sale of flavored tobacco or 3) restrict the sale
of flavored tobacco. In addition to addressing flavored tobacco, City Code requires
amendments to the penalties section regarding underage possession, use and/or purchase
of tobacco products. With the help of the Public Health Law Center, a proposed draft
ordinance would bring City Code into State and federal compliance with regard to
penalization of individuals under the age of 21 for possession, use and/or purchase of
tobacco products.
City staff recommend adopting these proposed changes, as they align with State law and
make the licensee responsible, and recommend moving forward with City Code
amendments regarding underage possession, use and purchase of tobacco products;
however, staff does not have a recommendation regarding flavored tobacco at this time.
Novitsky prefers the option to restrict the sale of flavored tobacco, to limit it to adult -only
establishments, but wonders whether or not the City should allow it in liquor stores so the
City is not making money on something that would be banned from othe r stores. He also
cited the difference between “restrict” and “prohibit” and wouldn’t want to further hurt a
tobacco store already having been limited in regulation of its business. Hark added that
there is a strong cultural component to flavored tobacco. Novitsky thinks flavored tobacco
should not be available at convenience stores.
Jacobs prefers the option to restrict the sale of flavored tobacco and removing it from
liquor stores.
Buesgens prefers the option to prohibit the sale of flavored tobacco because underage
children may be exposed to parents who use tobacco and use fake IDs for access.
Márquez Simula prefers the option to restrict the sale of flavored tobacco and asked
whether it could be sold, as an example, at gas stations, as they may not check IDs. Hark
said in a tobacco store, one is only selling tobacco products and their accessories and no
one under 21 should be able to purchase there.
21
Item 2.
City of Columbia Heights MINUTES August 2, 2021
City Council Work Session Page 11
Buesgens what the consequence is for a business selling flavored tobacco to someone
under 21. Hark reported that the penalty, as an example, for a first offense from increased
from $75 to $300 and they go up from there on additional offenses. Buesgens doesn’t
think an amendment will help the situation but is willing to go along with whatever the
other Councilmembers prefer. Jacobs clarified that a business would now be responsible
for selling to an underage customer, rather than the young purchaser being cited.
Kloiber added that it would be problematic at two local liquor stores to check IDs at the
door; but if staff monitoring their security cameras sees someone come into the store
underage, it could likely be a grab-and-flee shoplifter. He said typically a compliance check
system is set up to be at the checkout, rather than the entrance; and as tobacco products
are usually stored behind the checkout (for security and lack of access for those underage),
access to them would be more difficult.
Márquez Simula said there may be reluctance for a business (and staff) to allow a sale of
flavored tobacco to someone under 21 if their business would be put at risk to lose their
City license.
Buesgens asked what the frequency is for tobacco compliance, and Austin said the goal is
twice per year. Chirpich added that the State mandates once per year. Austin added that
liquor businesses are very typically very vigilant in checking IDs before sales, as their license
renewals are very valuable to them.
Hark said all tobacco-licensed businesses will need to be notified of the proposed
amendment before it would come before the Council at an upcoming meeting sometime in
the fall.
6. Update on Information Systems Strategic Planning
Kloiber cited the evening’s two main discussion points as being 1) the process for the
strategic planning by itself and 2) certain upcoming technology costs not formalized in the
2021 and 2022 budgets.
His report stated that earlier this year, the City contracted with Sciens Consulting to
prepare a broad assessment of the City’s information systems function and recommend a
strategic plan to guide these activities for the next several years. The first report is the
Information Systems Assessment Report and is in final published form and available for
review upon request. It assesses the City’s current information systems function, strengths
and weaknesses, and describes alternative strategies. The second report, now in draft
form, incorporates the conclusions of the first report into a five-year technology action
plan. Following the release of the second report, Sciens will make a Zoom presentation to
the Council, likely at a September Work Session.
A primary theme of both reports is that the City is underspending and understaffing the
information systems function.
22
Item 2.
City of Columbia Heights MINUTES August 2, 2021
City Council Work Session Page 12
Kloiber said the consultant recommends increasing the IT staff from three to five, but to
contract out two positions (the purchase, build and install of user devices) a nd updating IT
equipment on a four- to five-year basis rather than on a rolling basis, which is more
affordable contracting out, but a financing mechanism would be needed. Another
recommendation is to have Microsoft host email along with the Cloud and oth er Office
applications, rather than in-house hosting. He said the consultant’s recommendations are
valid but detailed preferences should be left to the City.
Staff prefers the creation of an IT Director position that would report to the City Manager
and that two sets of two would be at different levels and have overlapping duties, which
would help with better coverage on weekends, vacations and eliminate redundancy.
Bourgeois’ hope is that an IT Director be hired in 2021. She said that in the past IS has
been treated as “the kid in the basement” and did not have the latitude or tools to perform
the needed work, which goes back to the budget. The proposed 2022 budget will include
an approximate $200,000 addition (current budget is about $429,000) for both a division
head position and a certain amount for that division head to have some tools to work with
in the first year.
Buesgens enthusiastically supports the IT amendments. She also had interest in finding out
what neighboring cities pay for their IT Departments, and Kloiber said he could locate that
information and email to the Council.
Kloiber said it is important to have an IT Department that can have an overall cohesive plan
for technologies within the City, rather than leaving it up to individual departments to
make their choices.
Jacobs asked how the proposed amendments would factor into the new City Hall’s
improvements. Kloiber said there will be contractor bidding for the sub -constructor
package work. He said there are current communication issues within the City, citing an
example of users being unaware of the capability to access voicemail remotely, and so an
outreach communication initiative is needed but will take some time. In addition, he said it
will be beneficial to be proactive with technology improvements.
Bourgeois said there has been a turnover of division heads and the expectation for
technology has been dramatic, both for residents and City staff, and so it will be important
to do long-term planning in where departments want to be in the future.
Kloiber said aggravated numbers are determined shortly, fiscal disparities for the levy are
unknown and may affect them but will be known before the Council votes.
23

Timewise, Kloiber cited the following schedule:
August 9 City Council Meeting – 2021 amendments for $20,000 cable services,
$22,000 IS funding for extra cost for upgrading laser license, email archiver and
other equipment, software tool recommended by Sciens, including $10,000 for
potentially a helpdesk management tool - totaling $40,000-50,000
August 23 City Council Meeting – City Manager’s proposed 2022 budget
September City Council Work Session – Sciens’ Zoom presentation, Finance
Director’s overall City budget presentation
Upcoming EDA levy
September 27 City Council Meeting – City Council adoption of proposed levy for the
City, fiscal disparities will be known, and approval of the creation of an IT Director
position
Buesgens thinks residents and City staff will be pleased with the technology upgrades and
is important to set up all at once.
Novitsky supports the IT amendment and thinks it is the right time, aligning with the new
City Hall, and will give residents more of what they are looking for. He said you can’t fix
problems for free.
Jacobs supports the IT amendment and thinks it may be more palatable for residents,
knowing that the new technology will be a piece of moving into the new City Hall, that it
goes hand-in-hand.

Present: Christopher Elsenbast, Prodeo Academy (via Zoom)
2.REQUEST FOR NO PARKING DURING STUDENT ARRIVAL AND DISMISSAL TIMES ON THE SOUTH
SIDE OF 42ND AVENUE AND THE WEST SIDE OF 4TH STREET FOR PRODEO ACADEMY
Prodeo Academy is a new building on University Avenue. Christopher Elsenbast has requested
No Parking adjacent to Prodeo Academy on the south side of 42nd Avenue and the west side of
4th Street from 6:00 am to 8:00 am and from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm. to facilitate student drop off
and pick up. Due to parked cars in the area it’s been challenging for parents to drop off and pick
up students quickly.
At the last meeting commissioners felt that 42nd Avenue was narrow enough to consider no
parking along the south side. However, according to the dismissal diagram for student pickup,
they questioned if 4th Street should be designated as no parking or as a loading zone. Item was
tabled until the next meeting in July pending more information from the Prodeo representative.
Davis stated that according to the arrival diagram Prodeo is only utilizing the area on 4th Street
for dismissal at a different time. He questioned why there’s a difference between the arrival and
dismissal zones because it seems like this should be consistent. Mr. Elsenbast advised this will be
consistent during the upcoming year. Both areas will be used for arrival and dismissal because
they won’t have distance learning, so a lot more kids will be dropped off and picked up. They
plan to build in 4th Street for cars lining up so both streets will be used for the same amount of
time at arrival and dismissal. Schluender advised that we have a proposed motion for either no
parking or a loading zone. Asked if they are currently using the designated no parking on 4th
25

Street as a loading zone with cars moving through. Mr. Elsenbast advised this will be used as a
loading zone and its high traffic in the afternoon.
There are also approximately 10-15 vans and taxis that pick up the students. Buses are up front
in the parking lot and the taxis and vans come through the back. Students do not walk to 42nd
Avenue to load; vehicles pull up on 4th Street. The most traffic is in the morning and the
beginning of the dismissal time. This is when cars need a holding area until they come through
the traffic line.
Young advised we can call a Public Hearing to designate No Parking, but can step down to a
loading zone. Mr. Elsenbast stated times for the loading zone would be 6:30 am to 8 am and 1
pm to 3 pm or 6:30 am to 3:30 pm. Davis suggested 6 am to 3 pm. Young advised it will depend
on how the residents feel regarding the 6 am to 3 pm; they may want midday parking available
to them. Parking will still be allowed on the east side of 4th Street. Commissioners agreed with
no parking on 42nd Avenue.
Motion by Davis to call a Public Hearing to designate “No Parking” on the south side of 42nd
Avenue from University Avenue to 4th Street, next to Prodeo Academy. Seconded by Schluender.
Motion passed unanimously.
Motion by Davis to call a Public Hearing to designate “Loading Zone 6 AM to 3 PM School Days”

Seconded by Schluender. Motion passed unanimously.
3. REQUEST FOR TRAFFIC CALMING MEASURES ON RESERVOIR BOULEVARD FROM 37TH AVENUE
TO 40TH AVENUE
Carrie Gille had requested traffic calming measures on Reservoir Boulevard from 37th Avenue to
41st Avenue, the concern being traffic speed.
Speed counts collected by the Police Department were reviewed at the June meeting. One
traffic calming measure is to add striping to make the travel lane seem narrower. The City
Council supported the idea of adding white parking lane and bicycle lane striping at a council
meeting. On Reservoir Boulevard this will make the travel lane 10’, bicycle lane 5.5’, and parking
lane 7’. Speed counts would be retaken in approximately one year to see if the striping has
helped. Staff would also obtain a neighborhood perspective to see if residents feel this has
slowed traffic or not.
There will also be upcoming meetings regarding the 37th Avenue project and this could be tied
into these meetings to see what people think about the bike lanes. In the meantime, staff will
advise residents on Reservoir Boulevard about the striping and allow them to comment. The
striping is currently scheduled for August as part of a citywide project. Schluender asked about
bicycle counts. These would need to be done manually. Some of the consulting engineers we
work with have video equipment, but the tape would then need to be reviewed.
Davis does not feel three blocks of bike lanes are very useful, feels it would make more sense to
have them the full length of Reservoir. He understands part of this is Anoka County. He would
26

City of Columbia Heights MINUTES July 20, 2021
Traffic Commission Page 3
like to see some discussion from the City Council as to whether they would want a continuation
of the striping and what it would take to work with Anoka County for options and guidance. He
knows residents from 40th to 44th have complained about speed on Reservoir Blvd as well.
Finkelson asked if this would be a good opportunity to discuss a crosswalk at 39th Ave and
Reservoir Blvd. There’s a fair amount of traffic at this intersection making it a good spot for a
crosswalk. Young advised we can look at the parameters. There are sidewalks on both sides of
Reservoir Blvd but none on 39th Ave; however, this is an offset intersection so we would be
running into a landing issue for the crosswalk. Young advised a pedestrian ramp would need to
be installed on the opposite side of the street that would point back onto Reservoir Blvd.
Finkelson thinks one crosswalk across Reservoir between the two 39th Avenues would be the
best, then there would only be one crosswalk and it would be 90 degrees perpendicular to the
street. Davis would not feel comfortable with this because this is a common jog for cars-- going
from one 39th to the other. He would recommend the north end of the east intersection. He also
feels the lighting is insufficient on those corners. There’s only one overhead light for the two
intersections. Finkelson agrees. Having only one light makes it difficult to see pedestrians.
Motion by Nekora to direct staff to contact property owners on Reservoir Boulevard from 37th
Avenue to 40th Avenue regarding plans to stripe bicycle lanes on Reservoir Boulevard. Seconded
by Finkelson. Motion passed unanimously.

Present: Mike Morris, 4713 Heights Drive
4. REQUEST FOR NO PARKING AT THE INTERSECTION OF HEIGHTS DRIVE AND UPLAND CREST
Mr. Mike Morris has requested NO PARKING along the east side of Heights Drive and Upland
Crest, near the intersection. The issue is limited visibility for southbound vehicles on Upland
Crest, continuing south on Heights Drive.
Upland Crest intersects with Heights Drive at an angle. Southbound traffic on Upland Crest has a
YIELD sign before entering the intersection with Heights Drive. The topography of the
intersection combined with the curve on Heights Drive limits visibility for southbound traffic.
Drivers must proceed cautiously to continue southbound.
Heights Drive and Upland Crest are both 31’ back of curb to back of curb. This width is typical for
residential streets in Columbia Heights.
Mr. Morris has lived at 4713 Heights Drive for over 20 years. There hasn’t been a lot of parking
on this corner until recently, which has caused a visibility issue. He hasn’t seen any accidents but
drivers need to approach very, very slowly and it’s difficult to see traffic coming from Upland
Crest. It would help visibility if there was no parking designated between the two driveways on
Heights Drive. Schluender questioned the amount of parking in the general area. Overall, the
amount of parking in the area is relatively full along Heights Drive between 45th and 49th. There’s
also quite a bit of parking in the wintertime. When traveling north on Heights Drive drivers need
to cross over Upland Crest. Due to parked cars on the right hand side of the curve, you can’t see
approaching southbound cars from Upland Crest until you’re in the intersection, making crossing
27

City of Columbia Heights MINUTES July 20, 2021
Traffic Commission Page 4
over to continue on Heights Drive difficult. There is a yield sign coming from Upland Crest but no
other traffic control, so it can be a surprise for both parties. When cars are parked on both sides
of Heights Drive it becomes even narrower. However, the only real problem spot is when cars
are parked between the two driveways on Heights Drive. Cars parked before or after these
driveways don’t really affect the visibility.
Motion by Finkelson to call a Public Hearing to designate “No Parking” on the east side of Heights
Drive between the driveway entrances for 4617 Heights Drive and 4623 Heights Drive. Seconded
by Davis. Motion passed unanimously.

ITEM: Approve Expenditures for Camera Installation at Huset Park, Murzyn Hall, and Library

BACKGROUND:
Recent issues at city parks prompted a discussion about park use and police incidents that occur at them.
Expanding city owned camera coverage to city parks was explored as a way to prevent crime and solve issues
inside the parks. Huset Park is the largest city park and the most utilized. Adding cameras to Murzyn Hall and
Huset Park would allow for camera coverage of the entire area and these cameras would be part of the
existing city owned camera system due to the base camera infrastructure that already exists inside Murzyn
Hall.
The City has an established relationship with Marco, as they are the vendor who has installed most of the city
owned cameras. Marco also sells the March Networks software that the city uses to monitor the cameras and
record video.
Camera coverage was also examined at the Columbia Heights Library due to past incidents that lacked
sufficient surveillance coverage, and the need for additional security along Central Avenue and behind the
Library for future city hall overflow parking.
Marco prepared a quote for Murzyn Hall and Huset Park that included expanding camera coverage around and
inside Murzyn Hall. During the quote process, city staff learned that the current March Networks software that
the city has used for years will eventually expire and a new version of the software is available. The new
software allows staff to view camera feeds on wireless devices like cell phones and laptop computers , a
feature that is not available on the current version. The new version of the software is updatable and does not
require an annual subscription fee.
Part of the quote process for the camera installs in Huset park required running power to existing light poles ,
therefore an electrical quote was also needed in order to complete the project.

BACKGROUND: At the July Traffic Commission meeting commissioners called for a Public Hearing to designate
No Parking/Loading Zone areas next to Prodeo Academy.
Prodeo Academy has requested “No Parking” on the south side of 42 nd Avenue and “Loading Zone 6 am to 3
pm School Days” on the west side of 4th Street to facilitate student drop off and pick up. Due to parked cars in
the area it’s been challenging for parents to drop off and pick up students quickly.
A Public Hearing was held on Tuesday, August 17, 2021 at 6:00 pm. Notice of the hearing was published in the
LIFE newspaper on August 6, 2021 and affected residents were notified via postcard.
No residents were present at the meeting.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Next to Prodeo Academy, 42nd Avenue is 24’ wide from back of curb to back of
curb and 4th Street is 31’ wide. Commissioners agreed that 42nd Avenue is narrow enough to designate no
parking along the south side. Commissioners also agreed with designating a loading zone on 4th Street from 6
am to 3 pm on school days. Parking would still be allowed on the east side of 4 th Street.
Staff supports the recommended motions.
RECOMMENDED MOTION(S):
MOTION: Move to designate “No Parking” on the south side of 42 nd Avenue from University Avenue to 4th
Street, next to Prodeo Academy, based on recommendation of the Traffic Commission.
MOTION: Move to designate “Loading Zone 6 AM to 3 PM School Days” on the west side of 4th Street from
235’ south of 42nd Avenue to the south property line of Prodeo Academy, based on recommendation of the

BACKGROUND:
Two Columbia Heights businesses have made requests for amending the City’s On -Sale Intoxicating Liquor
Licensing Code to allow for consideration of an on-sale license for their establishment. Soiree, located at 4028-
4030 Central Avenue NE, is a local restaurant/banquet facility that wishes to pursue an intoxicating liquor
license; however, the establishment cannot meet the City’s current minimum requirement for restaurant
seating and floor area to qualify for the license. Jimmy’s Pro Billiards, located at 4 040 Central Avenue NE,
meets the floor area for restaurant and provides 150 seats; however, the establishment does not have
customer dining in a defined 2,000 square foot dining area. Their seating arrangement is dispersed throughout
the larger building among the available billiards tables, which has prevented them from receiving an
intoxicating liquor license.
These requests prompted further research by City Staff regarding suitable amendments to the current City
Code in regards to regulations for liquor licenses, specifically for restaurants. At the August 2, 2021 Council
work session, staff presented the City Council with an overview of options and an analysis of how nearby cities
are regulating their intoxicating liquor licenses. It was determined that, in an effort to promote businesses of
all sizes and expand the variety of dining options within the community, it would be most suitable to amend
the City Code to eliminate the minimum dining floor area requirement and minimum number of guests for
restaurants to qualify for an on-sale intoxicating liquor license. Additionally, it was determined that it would
be most suitable to amend the requirement for restaurants with on-sale intoxicating liquor licenses to meet
minimum gross sales of 55% food, not to exceed 45% alcohol sales. This would allow for current unique
businesses, such as Jimmy’s Pro Billiards and Soiree, and potential future businesses with eccentric concepts
to operate under an on-sale intoxicating liquor license with a bit more leniency on food sales.
During staff’s research on the City’s regulation of liquor and beer licensing regulations, City Staff found that
additional updates were needed of Chapter 5.5 for the City Code. This includes eliminating Limited Intoxicating
Liquor Licenses, updating and adding definitions, updating application requirements for all liquor and beer
licenses, and incorporating gender-neutral language. 101

(Q) (1) At the time of filing an application for any on-sale or off-sale 3.2% malt liquor license, the
applicant shall file with the Clerk proof of financial responsibility for liability. The issuer or surety on any

canceling party has first given 30 days’ notice in writing to the issuing authority of intent to cancel the
policy; and
(2) Nonpayment of premium unless the canceling party has first given ten days’ notice in writing to
the issuing authority of intent to cancel the policy.
(T) The operation of an on-sale, off-sale, or temporary on-sale beer license without having on file at all
times with the city the liability insurance policy or other evidence of financial responsibility required
herein shall be grounds for immediate revocation of the license. Notice of cancellation of a current
liquor liability policy serves as notice to the licensee of the impending revocation and unless evidence of
compliance with the financial responsibility requirements of this section are presented to the Clerk
before the termination is effective, the license will be revoked instantly upon the lapse in coverage.

licensee during business hours without a search and seizure warrant and may, in the absence of a
license to sell intoxicating liquor, seize all intoxicating liquors found on the licensed premises. Business
hours shall be deemed any time when licensee or employees are present on the premises. Refusal to
permit such inspection is a violation of this section and grounds for revocation of license.
(Y) Any person violating any provision of this section shall be guilty of a misdemeanor.
(Z) Any “on or off sale” license holder is subject to provisions of 5.510 5.511 regarding penalties for
license violations.

periodically check establishments for compliance with hours and license conditions. The city will act as a
resource to provide server training or to direct businesses to approved training on an annual basis. The
city wishes to have all businesses choose to be a best practices liquor license.
(B) Best practices. Best practices licensees will have the benefit of following the best practices violation
matrix. The best practices program is voluntary and serves as a cooperative venture between licensees
and the city to meet the goals of the city laid out in the city code. Best practices licensees will fill out an
application from the city committing their establishment to working towards 100% compliance with the
applicable ordinances and state statutes.
(1) Required activities. Best practices licensee will agree to keep records of best practices activities
and to have them available for inspection. The best practices licensee will have 75% of all alcohol selling
staff trained by the Police Department, Minnesota Department of Alcohol and Gambling Enforcement,
the Minnesota Municipal Beverage Association, the Minnesota Licensed Beverage Association, (or any
other organization who provides similar training upon approval by city's Liquor Licensing Department)
on an annual basis. Best practices licensees will have a written internal training program for new
employees and a written policy requiring identification on anyone appearing to be 40 years old or
younger.
(2) Optional activities. Best practices licensees will do four (three if they do integrated ID scanner
on register) of the following:
(a) Continuously certify 75% of all employees who sell alcohol are trained.
(b) Internal employee reward/recognition program for employees who catch underage customers.
(c) Run an approved internal compliance program.
(d) Automated ID card scanner integrated into cash register.
(e) Pre-arrange to meet with staff and prosecutor on violations.
(f) Have a policy to check ID on every sale.
(g) Have a policy to work with the Police Department to prevent secondary resale of alcohol.
137
Item 8.
(h) Have a minimum age of 21 for employees selling alcohol products.
(C) Process followed for violations. The purpose of this section is to establish a standard by which the
city determines the length of a license suspension, revocation, and/or civil penalty. This policy shall
apply to all on-sale and off-sale license holders. These penalties are deemed to be appropriate for all
violations. Licensees shall be informed that this policy applies to the license holder and does not apply
to the criminal charges against the person who actually violates the law. The City Council may choose to
deviate from the prescribed penalty if there are extenuating circumstances. Should the City Council
deviate from the adopted policy, they must take official action and document the reasons for the
deviation. The City Council may only consider the penalty portion of the action. Should the licensee
wish to appeal the facts of a violation, they must request a due process hearing.
(1) Notice. Upon a determination that a violation of a city ordinance or state law relating to
alcoholic beverages has occurred in a licensed premises, the licensee will be issued a notice, either
personally or by U.S. Mail, setting forth the nature, date, and time of the alleged violation, the
administrative penalties if applicable, the process for appealing the determination and the penalty for
failing to comply with the penalty. Mailed notice will be considered complete upon deposit in the U.S.
Mail addressed to the licensee at the most current address contained in city records.
(2) Compliance. Within 14 calendar days of the date of the notice, a licensee may comply with the
penalties set out in the notice by paying the administrative fine and notifying the Licensing Clerk of the
dates the licensee chooses to submit to any imposed suspension. Suspension days must be consecutive
business days the last of which must not be more than 60 days after the date of the notice.
(3) Hearing. Any licensee who receives notice of a violation may, within 14 calendar days of the
date of issuance of the notice, request in writing a hearing before the City Council. A request for a
hearing must be submitted to the Licensing Clerk who will cause the request to be placed on the agenda
of the next regular City Council meeting that will be held not less than 15 calendar days after receipt of
the request. Written notice stating the date, time, and place of the hearing will be provided to the
licensee no less than ten calendar days before the hearing. The notice will be considered complete
upon deposit in the U.S. Mail addressed to the licensee at the most current address shown in city
records. The City Council may sustain, dismiss or amend the violation, and may sustain, waive, reduce,
or increase any penalty provided for in this chapter, except that no penalty may exceed the maximum
permitted under state law. The City Council, if it sustains or amends the violation, will establish a new
compliance date for the penalties imposed.
(4) Revocation. Notwithstanding any provisions in this chapter to the contrary, a violation for which
the established penalty is revocation must be forwarded to the City Council for disposition. The notice
of violation will include the nature, date, and time of the violation and the date, time, and place of the
Council's consideration, which will be not less than ten, nor more than 20 calendar days after the date of
service of the notice. Notice will be considered complete upon personal service on the licensee or upon
deposit in the U.S. Mail addressed to the licensee at the most current address shown in city
records. The Council may sustain, dismiss, or amend the violation. If Council sustains or amends the
violation it may revoke the license or impose such other penalty it deems as appropriate provided the
penalty does not exceed the maximum permitted under state law.
(5) Multiple violations. Each incident with respect to date, time, place, and persons involved, will be
deemed a single violation for the purposes of imposing administrative penalties notwithstanding that an
138
Item 8.
incident may involve more than one offense. The City Council may take multiple offenses into
consideration when determining whether to deviate from the established penalties for any violation.
(6) Violations when another is pending. Any violation that occurs at a licensed premise while a prior
violation is pending for those same premises will be treated as a separate violation and considered a
subsequent violation for purposes of imposing an administrative penalty.
(7) Submission to Council in lieu of administrative procedures. With the concurrence of the City
Manager, or their designees, the Licensing Clerk, in lieu of accepting the administrative penalties

Section 11
5.511 of the Columbia Heights City Code is hereby amended to read as follows, to wit:
§5.511 POLICY FOR ALCOHOL LICENSE VIOLATIONS. PENALTY.
(A) It is the goal of the city to have each liquor license comply with the law 100% of the time in relation
to the chapter regarding liquor. The city will maintain staff to complete annual compliance checks,
periodically check establishments for compliance with hours and license conditions. The city will act as a
resource to provide server training or to direct businesses to approved training on an annual basis. The
city wishes to have all businesses choose to be a best practices liquor license.
(B) Best practices. Best practices licensees will have the benefit of following the best practices violation
matrix. The best practices program is voluntary and serves as a cooperative venture between licensees
and the city to meet the goals of the city laid out in the city code. Best practices licensees will fill out an
application from the city committing their establishment to working towards 100% compliance with the
applicable ordinances and state statutes.
(1) Required activities. Best practices licensee will agree to keep records of best practices activities
and to have them available for inspection. The best practices licensee will have 75% of all alcohol selling
staff trained by the Police Department, Minnesota Department of Alcohol and Gambling Enforcement,
the Minnesota Municipal Beverage Association, the Minnesota Licensed Beverage Association, (or any
other organization who provides similar training upon approval by city's Liquor Licensing Department)
on an annual basis. Best practices licensees will have a written internal training program for new
employees and a written policy requiring identification on anyone appearing to be 40 years old or
younger.
(2) Optional activities. Best practices licensees will do four (three if they do integrated ID scanner
on register) of the following:
(a) Continuously certify 75% of all employees who sell alcohol are trained.
(b) Internal employee reward/recognition program for employees who catch underage customers.
(c) Run an approved internal compliance program.
(d) Automated ID card scanner integrated into cash register.
139
Item 8.
(e) Pre-arrange to meet with staff and prosecutor on violations.
(f) Have a policy to check ID on every sale.
(g) Have a policy to work with the Police Department to prevent secondary resale of alcohol.
(h) Have a minimum age of 21 for employees selling alcohol products.
(C) Process followed for violations. The purpose of this section is to establish a standard by which the
city determines the length of a license suspension, revocation, and/or civil penalty. This policy shall
apply to all on-sale and off-sale license holders. These penalties are deemed to be appropriate for all
violations. Licensees shall be informed that this policy applies to the license holder and does not apply
to the criminal charges against the person who actually violates the law. The City Council may choose to
deviate from the prescribed penalty if there are extenuating circumstances. Should the City Council
deviate from the adopted policy, they must take official action and document the reasons for the
deviation. The City Council may only consider the penalty portion of the action. Should the licensee
wish to appeal the facts of a violation, they must request a due process hearing.
(1) Notice. Upon a determination that a violation of a city ordinance or state law relating to
alcoholic beverages has occurred in a licensed premises, the licensee will be issued a notice, either
personally or by U.S. Mail, setting forth the nature, date, and time of the alleged violation, the
administrative penalties if applicable, the process for appealing the determination and the penalty for
failing to comply with the penalty. Mailed notice will be considered complete upon deposit in the U.S.
Mail addressed to the licensee at the most current address contained in city records.
(2) Compliance. Within 14 calendar days of the date of the notice, a licensee may comply with the
penalties set out in the notice by paying the administrative fine and notifying the Licensing Clerk of the
dates the licensee chooses to submit to any imposed suspension. Suspension days must be consecutive
business days the last of which must not be more than 60 days after the date of the notice.
(3) Hearing. Any licensee who receives notice of a violation may, within 14 calendar days of the
date of issuance of the notice, request in writing a hearing before the City Council. A request for a
hearing must be submitted to the Licensing Clerk who will cause the request to be placed on the agenda
of the next regular City Council meeting that will be held not less than 15 calendar days after receipt of
the request. Written notice stating the date, time, and place of the hearing will be provided to the
licensee no less than ten calendar days before the hearing. The notice will be considered complete
upon deposit in the U.S. Mail addressed to the licensee at the most current address shown in city
records. The City Council may sustain, dismiss or amend the violation, and may sustain, waive, reduce,
or increase any penalty provided for in this chapter, except that no penalty may exceed the maximum
permitted under state law. The City Council, if it sustains or amends the violation, will establish a new
compliance date for the penalties imposed.
(4) Revocation. Notwithstanding any provisions in this chapter to the contrary, a violation for which
the established penalty is revocation must be forwarded to the City Council for disposition. The notice
of violation will include the nature, date, and time of the violation and the date, time, and place of the
Council's consideration, which will be not less than ten, nor more than 20 calendar days after the date of
service of the notice. Notice will be considered complete upon personal service on the licensee or upon
deposit in the U.S. Mail addressed to the licensee at the most current address shown in city
records. The Council may sustain, dismiss, or amend the violation. If Council sustains or amends the
violation it may revoke the license or impose such other penalty it deems as appropriate provided the
penalty does not exceed the maximum permitted under state law.
(5) Multiple violations. Each incident with respect to date, time, place, and persons involved, will be
deemed a single violation for the purposes of imposing administrative penalties notwithstanding that an
incident may involve more than one offense. The City Council may take multiple offenses into
consideration when determining whether to deviate from the established penalties for any violation.
140
Item 8.
(6) Violations when another is pending. Any violation that occurs at a licensed premise while a prior
violation is pending for those same premises will be treated as a separate violation and considered a
subsequent violation for purposes of imposing an administrative penalty.
(7) Submission to Council in lieu of administrative procedures. With the concurrence of the City
Manager, or their designees, the Licensing Clerk, in lieu of accepting the administrative penalties
provided for in § 5.510, may submit any violation to the City Council for review and determination. The
decision must take into consideration the number and seriousness of the offenses allegedly committed
in a single incident. The decision to submit a violation to the Council must be included in the initial
violation notice along with the date, time, and place the Council will consider the matter.
(A) Penalty for noncompliance. In addition to any criminal penalties which may be imposed by a court
of law, the City Council may suspend a license for up to 60 days, may revoke a license and/or may
impose a civil fine on a licensee not to exceed $2,000 for each violation on a finding that the license
holder or its employee has failed to comply with a statute, rule or ordinance relating to alcoholic
beverages, malt beverages, or wine.
(B) Minimum penalty. The purpose of this section is to establish a standard by which the City Council
determines the civil fine, the length of license suspensions and the propriety of revocations, and shall
apply to all premises licensed under this chapter. These penalties are presumed to be appropriate for
every case, however, the Council may deviate in an individual case where the Council finds that there
exist certain extenuating or aggravating circumstances, making it more appropriate to deviate, such as,
but not limited to, a licensee's efforts in combination with the state or city to prevent the sale of alcohol
to minors or, in the converse, when a licensee has a history of repeated violations of state or local liquor
laws. When deviating from these standards, the Council will provide written findings that support the
penalty selected. When a violation occurs, the staff shall provide information to the City Council to
either assess the presumptive penalty or depart upward or downward based on extenuating or
aggravating circumstances. The staff shall notify the licensee of the information being considered and
acted upon by the City Council.
(C) Penalties.
(1) Except as otherwise provided in this chapter, the sale of alcoholic beverages to a person under
the age of 21, the sale of alcoholic beverages to an obviously intoxicated person, or the failure of an on-
sale licensee to take reasonable steps to prevent a person from leaving the licensed premises with an
alcoholic beverage will subject the licensee to the following administrative penalties (best practices
applies only to license holders who are enrolled in the program at the time of the violations):

Gather. Dine. Celebrate.
Please accept this letter in support of requested changes to City ordinance for liquor license s.
Background:
Our property is located at 4028/4030 Central Ave. We purchased this bank owned property in 2010 and
completed extensive remodel including a full commercial kitchen and sprinklers. Our company, founded
in 2003, provided residential services to people with mental illness and consistently employed over 80
people. The upper floor was used as office/training space for our foster care homes and the larger
ground floor space was used as an adult daycare for people with mental illness. In 2019 the operation
of the foster care homes was sold to a larger company, but we retained the properties. (total of 11
single family homes in Columbia Heights, Fridley, SLP and NE Mpls) We continued to operate the Adult
Daycare until the pandemic forced its closure.
Going forward:
We began exploring alternative uses for our property pre-pandemic and have spent this time making
improvements to our space, painting, flooring etc.
We have a certificate of occupancy for I-4 & A-2 mixed use with a load of 213. Our main floor space is
approximately 4500 sf and the upper floor is another 3100. We have sufficient and accessible lavatory
facilities. A portion of our property (4028) was previously a coffee shop and the set-up remains, the
larger space (4030) consists of the new commercial kitchen a large open area and additional bathrooms
and storage areas. The spaces are connected via a hallway and additional set of bathrooms.
At this time, we are working to develop a concept that combines a small restaurant space with a larger
event space. The restaurant space would be focused on the 4028 entrance but may expand into the
larger space as needed for say a mother’s day brunch or other special occasions. The events would vary
in size, from intimate private dinners to mid-sized weddings and other celebrations. We would strive to
strike a balance between high quality simple food and fine dining. Options would also include take-out
and catering.
In support of this development we would like to obtain a full liquor license. Our expectation is that our
primary service would focus on wine and beer, but a full liquor license would allow us to include craft
cocktails and special events etc. Even though our space would meet the current requirements for
seating and space, we do not intend to operate at that scale. We are requesting that statute allow a
minimum of 50 seats and 2000 sf for full license requirements.
As a Columbia Heights Alum, I welcome the opportunity to be part of the revitalization of this part of the
avenue and I am anxious, as I am sure you all are as well for the new city center!
Sincerely, Shelley Santrach
