LENNOX BUILDING PERMIT Council acknowledged a report from Public
Works Director Danielson and Administrative
Assistant Batchelder regarding a request from
United Properties for site plan approval and
building permit. United Properties proposes
to construct a 30,517 square foot
office/warehouse in the Mendota Heights

building. It was noted that the applicant
also requests reconfirmation of variances for
sign setback and parking stall width, a change
in street name from LeMay Drive to Commerce
Drive, and approval to construct 42 of the
required 51 parking spaces with associated
approval on proof of parking for nine future
spaces at the northwest corner of the

CATHOLIC CEMETERIES Council acknowledged an application from the
VARIANCE (CASE 91-29) Catholic Cemeteries for variances to allow
four temporary signs at the Resurrection
Cemetery entrances located on Lexington Avenue
and Highway 110, and associated staff reports.
Mr. Dave Kemp, representing the Catholic
Cemeteries, responded to Council questions.
Councilmember Smith moved to allow four
temporary signs as requested, with a total of
113 square feet of area, for a period of three
years with an option for two additional years

Councilmember Blesener moved to approve a four
foot, three inch variance to the front yard
setback at 706 First Avenue to allow
construction of a garage addition as proposed,
along with a one foot sideyard setback

Councilmember Koch moved to grant a 4.2 foot
side yard setback variance to allow the garage
Page No. 3072

addition as proposed for 6 Dorset Road.
Councilmember Smith seconded the motion.
Ayes: 5

CASE NO. 90-35, Council acknowledged a report from the Public
DUGGAN Works Director and Administrative Assistant
regarding a request from Mr. & Mrs. Ultan
Duggan for reconsideration of the July 16th
denial of their application for wetlands
permit for a fence.
Mayor Mertensotto stated that although he
voted with the prevailing side, he has since
viewed the site and can find no basis for the
denial. He stated that City ordinances are
applied in the same manner for all
subdivisions in the City and Council has no
authority with respect to private covenants
and therefore has no basis to deny a wetlands
permit as long as the fence does not encroach
on the 15 foot easement area around the pond.
He noted that the applicants have modified
their plan so that the entire fence is wrought
iron, and all chain link has been eliminated.
Mayor Mertensotto moved to reconsider the July
16, 1991 denial of the Duggan wetlands permit
application for fence.
Councilmember Smith seconded the motion.

Cummins
Mrs. Joan Bjorklund presented the Duggans with
a letter from the Copperfield Architectural
Review Committee with respect to the covenants
and restrictions relating to fences in the
Copperfield Additions.
Councilmember Blesener commented that on the
same basis of not getting involved in
enforcing restrictions and covenants, Council
should not be getting involved in this type of
issue when there is a neighborhood association
bringing a recommendation to the City. She
stated that she believes Council should take
no action until the Architectural Review
Committee and the homeowners association work
things out - Council should not get involved
in a neighborhood controversy. She also
disagreed that there is no basis for denial,
stating that the wetlands ordinance gives
Council rights and discretion.
Page No. 3073
August 6, 1991
Mayor Mertensotto responded that after viewing
the property he can see no way that a wrought
iron fence as proposed would cause an
intrusion in the wetlands.
Councilmember Blesener stated that the Council
has acted repeatedly to deny variances, etc.,
when it has had objection from the
neighborhood, even in cases where there has
been overwhelming support from all but one or
two individuals.
A resident at 2354 Fieldstone Court, directly
across the pond from the Duggan property,
stated that he thinks he represents many
silent neighbors who share a concern that the
area's restrictions and covenants are going to
be reviewed by the Council and who do not want
that to happen. He stated that the fence is a
neighborhood issue and should not be
considered by Council, and that the Mayor has
taken the right direction. He felt that if
the wetlands issue has been resolved by the
Planning commission, Council should take its
recommendation.
Councilmember Cummins stated that he has
reviewed the wetlands ordinance since the last
meeting and would be reluctant to vote in
favor of the application. He stated that he
does not support what is proposed and hopes
that the neighbors take action in respect to
the private covenants, which Council cannot
get involved in.
Mr. Jack Huber stated that he is concerned
about the wildlife and the covenants. He
further stated that he would laud the
Council's granting of the permit because that
would be consistent with what has been done
throughout the City and hopes that the ARC
responds appropriately. He felt that the
focus should be on other problems in the
neighborhood, such as roaming dogs.
Mr. Mike Dwyer, 558 Stone Road, stated that he
is both Chair of the Planning Commission,
which made a recommendation to grant the
permit, and is a resident of Copperfield who
feels Council has been mislead. He stated
that the only residents of Copperfield who
were surveyed by the ARC about fences were
those who surround the pond. He felt that it
would be arbitrary and capricious for Council
Page No. 3074
August 6, 1991
to deny the application when it has approved
similar requests throughout the community -
Copperfield should not be treated any
differently.
Mayor Mertensotto stated that the fence is
proposed to be wrought iron on all four sides,
fifteen feet from the high water mark and at
least 6 inches inside the property line. He
asked Mr. Duggan if he intends to maintain
both sides of the fence.
Mr. Duggan responded that it is his intent.
Mayor Mertensotto moved to approve the
application for wetlands permit to allow
construction of the proposed fence on the
conditions that it be wrought iron on all four
sides, may not encroach on the wetlands
easement area and be at least 15 feet from the
high water mark.
Councilmember Smith seconded the motion.

RECESS Mayor Mertensotto called a recess at 8:22.
The meeting was reconvened at 8:30 P.M.
HEARINGS: CENTEX HOMES Mayor Mertensotto opened the meeting for the
CASE 91-23; LOCKWOOD purpose of a public hearing on an application
DRIVE STREET VACATION from Centex Homes for the vacation of Lockwood
Drive within Kensington and for rezoning,
conditional use permit for PUD for Kensington
Phase II, and for approval of wetlands permits
and preliminary and final plat approval.
Administrative Assistant Batchelder informed
the audience that the planning applications
are the culmination of more than 1 1/2 years
of effort which began in 1990 when a Centex
application for rezoning was denied.
Subsequent to the denial, Centex developed an
alternative plan which was submitted to the
Planning Commission. In January, 1991 Centex
filed suit against the City for failure to
rezone. Following the initiation of the suit,
Council directed the City Planner to prepare a
southeast area scoping study with respect to
land use in the area. Centex attended the
presentation of the study and indicated to the
City thereafter that they would be willing to
negotiate a settlement to the suit. The
negotiations began in April and continued for
a three month period, during which time
Ayes: 5
Nays: 0
Page No. 3075
August 6, 1991
Council developed a set of criteria for the
developer to meet in order for a•plan to be
acceptable. Council accepted a concept plan
from Centex on July 2nd and ordered public
hearings by Council and the Planning
Commission. Staff conducted an open house on
the proposed plan on July 18th, and the
Planning commission hearing was conducted on
July 23rd. The Commission recommended
approval of the plan currently proposed to
Council.
Mayor Mertensotto reviewed the street vacation
request and asked for questions and comments
from the audience.
There being no questions or comments,
Councilmember Cummins moved that the hearing
on the application for vacation of a portion
of Lockwood Drive be closed.
Councilmember Koch seconded the motion.
Mayor Mertensotto informed the audience that
the Council, in arriving at a compromise
settlement set down a number of criteria to
control the development. As far as the
rezoning, the property is partly zoned R-1A,
R-1 and B. In order to accomplish the
proposed PUD for Kensington Phase 2, rezoning
to HR and MR PUD is required. He stated that
he has no problem in granting rezoning but
that it must be conditioned upon a developers
agreement between the City and Centex. Centex
has submitted a proposed agreement to City
staff, but the Council has not yet reviewed
the proposed agreement - Council review and
approval must be a condition of any approvals.
With respect to the conditional use permit for
planned unit development, he stated that he
again has no problem, conditioned upon the
successful negotiation of a signed agreement.
He further stated that it has been the City
practice in conditional use permits for PUD to
change the underlying zoning for the PUD.
Council would not rezone the subject land but
for this project, therefore there must be a
signed developer's agreement for the CUP. He
stated that the developer has also asked for
preliminary and final plat approvals but
pointed out that the final plat has not been
submitted. Council could approve the
preliminary plat with conditions which must be
Page No. 3076
August 6, 1991
met, but that the final plat must come before
Council for approval.
Mr. John Bannigan, legal counsel for Centex,
stated that the ground rules the Mayor set
forth are to the advantage of Centex as well
as the City. He felt that it is fair to all
sides to approve the requests subject to the
developer's agreement execution.
Mayor Mertensotto stated that the CUP would be
the covenant for the development of the land
and runs with the land, and so does the
developers agreement. He pointed out that any
subsequent developer of the project would be
bound by the conditional use permit for PUD
and the developer's agreement.
Mr. Bannigan stated that he feels it is fair
to both parties to proceed on the basis of a
signed developers agreement.
Mayor Mertensotto asked for questions and
comments from the audience.
Mr. Joe Malzarek, 2545 Concord Way, stated
that when he purchased his property he
purchased on the basis of a sales brochure.
The new proposed plan changes the character of
Heritage Drive from four manor homes and a
parking space to 22 homes with access to
Heritage Drive and no parking spaces. He
informed Council that tonight there were 6 to
7 cars parked on the street from the existing
manor homes on Heritage Drive, and that there
will be a serious problem if there are 22
homes and no off - street parking spaces. He
stated that he understood that the Planning
Commission recommendation was going to be that
the existing manor homes be protected from
dumping a heavy density load onto their
streets and into their neighborhoods. He
stated that he would have no objection to the
plan if there were four manor homes on
Heritage Drive and some off street parking
rather than 22 homes.
Mayor Mertensotto expressed concern over the
claim of inadequate parking for the existing
manor homes.
Mr. Bannigan stated that the entire project
has been de- intensified - there were 280
dwelling units proposed in the plan which was
Ayes: 5
Nays: 0
Page No. 3077
August 6, 1991
denied. He stated that Centex has
substantially relieved pressure on the land
and the streets and there are substantially
fewer units than Mr. Malzarek would have been
looking at if the project developed as
proposed in the sales brochure to which he has
referred.
Mr. Tom Boyce, from Centex, showed Council the
final plan on the sales brochure which shows a
four -unit building on Heritage Drive in Phase
I and another 4 unit building and one 8 unit
building on Heritage in Phase 2. The new plan
proposes a twelve unit building, six units of
which face on Heritage, and a 10 unit
building, five units of which face on
Heritage. He stated that he would have no
problem in trying to provide a couple of
additional parking spaces for the existing
manor homes. He also suggested that the
residents start parking in their garages
rather than on the street.
Councilmember Cummins stated out that it
appears that there will be less traffic on
Heritage Drive under the current proposal
because of the way the units face.
Mayor Mertensotto pointed out that screening
of the parking areas, etc., was discussed in
the planning report and that Centex has agreed
to staff review and approval of the
landscaping plan and City engineering review
and approval of sewer and water lines.
There being no further questions or comments,
Councilmember Cummins moved that the hearing
be closed.
Councilmember Smith seconded the motion.
Mayor Mertensotto stated that Council would
not be approving the rezoning but for the
development proposed, therefore any action
must be predicated upon entering into a signed
developers agreement. The PUD will be the
footprint for the development and cannot be
changed without application for amendment.
The PUD controls the development, whether it
is in the hands of Centex or a future
developer. The developers agreement will also
control the development. The developer has
indicated that a forester will mark existing
trees. Lot adjustments can be made in the
Page No. 3078
August 6, 1991
final plat as Council is aware of them, and as
long as the criteria is established which
tells how many lots there must be of specific
sizes. He stated that there must also be
adjustment to the park areas in the
preliminary plat. He stated that there are
ground rules in force and that the developer
has agreed that all of the single family lots
will meet City ordinances with respect to
setbacks, etc.
Councilmember Cummins moved adoption of
Resolution No. 91 -43, "A RESOLUTION APPROVING
VACATION OF STREET RIGHT OF WAYS AND DRAINAGE
AND UTILITY EASEMENTS," on the condition that
the vacation will not be certified until the
developers agreement for Kensington Phase II
has been executed.
Councilmember Smith seconded the motion.

Ordinance No 278, "AN ORDINANCE AMENDING

from R -1 and R -1A to HR -PUD, on the condition
that the ordinances will not be published or

Nays: 0
Councilmember Blesener stated that she feels
Council has compromised to the point where it
has lost some opportunities it will not have
again. The development proposed in 1990
provided for 34 acres of park as opposed to 13
in the current plan, and also although the
number of multiple family units have
decreased, single family structures have
increased and statistics show that greater
traffic is generated by single family units.
She felt that the City has lost its option to
Page No. 3079
August 6, 1991
provide diversified housing for the community
as its population ages.
KENSINGTON PRELIMINARY It was noted that the preliminary plat for
PLAT Kensington Phase II generally reflects the
conditions of the settlement agreement but
that the final plat must include drainage and
utility easements.
Councilmember Smith moved approval of the
preliminary plat for Kensington Phase II
conditioned that it will not be effectively
approved until after execution of a developers
agreement.
Councilmember Cummins seconded the motion.

KENSINGTON WETLANDS Mayor Mertensotto stated that a number of the
PERMITS proposed single family lots in Kensington
Phase II do not meet the 100 foot wetlands
setback requirement.
Councilmember Smith stated that Council is
being asked to approve a number of wetlands
permits as the lots are shown on the
preliminary plat. She asked whether the
setbacks will need to be amended in the future
if the plat needs adjustment to preserve trees
and the scenic easement area.
Mayor Mertensotto responded that lot lines
cannot be amended once the final plat is
approved and that he sees no reason why
Council could not make adjustments in the
wetlands setbacks in the future for proper
reasons with the understanding that it is not
a matter of right.
Mr. Bannigan stated that the developers
understand they must be sensitive to saving
existing trees, as the Planning Commission had
recommended, and understands that they can
move building pads away from the wetlands and
trees as long as they do not violate the basic
criteria. He stated that, with respect to the
trees, the developers will not necessarily
know whether lot lines need to be shifted
until grading occurs.
Mayor Mertensotto stated that he does not want
to build in hardships and would have no
problem with changing wetlands permits because
of shifting for trees, but that sideyard
Ayes: 5
Nays: 0
Page No. 3080
August 6, 1991
setbacks are a different matter. He stated
that he appreciates the concern to save some
of the trees but before the developer prepares
the final plat he will know what needs to be
shifted.
It was recognized that the developer should
have the right to request minor variances in
the wetlands permit configurations where
needed to preserve existing trees.
Councilmember Cummins moved approval of
wetlands permits in accordance with the
exhibit presented to Council this evening
(page four of the staff report dated August 2,
1991) and reaffirm the wetlands permits for
Block 7 which have been previously approved,
conditioned upon execution of a developers
agreement.
Councilmember Smith seconded the motion.
Mayor Mertensotto stated that he is concerned
about balancing the soil amounts in the
grading of the site. He stated that the City
may wish to proceed with developing the park
and asked how that would fit into the
developers grading plans. Mr. Boyce responded
that he does not know until he sees the City
plan, and that he proposes to start with the
single family and carriage homes right away.
Councilmember Blesener stated that the City
may well have to grade more of the site than
it wants to in order to balance quantities.
Mr. Boyce stated that he will be balancing
fill and that the City can have excess fill
from the development. Grading plans will be
submitted to the City next week.
Council expressed the desire that construction
access to the park property be available in
1992 and that paved public access be available
in 1993.
CAT CONTROL Council acknowledged a report from the Police
Chief regarding a proposed cat control
ordinance. Chief Delmont and Mr. Ralph
Johnson were present for the discussion.
Chief Delmont stated that Council had directed
him to meet with Mr. Johnson and come up with
a compromise between the proposed ordinance
presented on July 16th and doing nothing. He
Page No. 3081
August 6, 1991
felt the City must weigh the impact of the
draft ordinances on all of the citizens
against the concerns of other citizens.
Mayor Mertensotto asked Mr. Johnson why he
sees the necessity for a cat control
ordinance.
Mr. Johnson responded that he has no objection
to people having cats as pets but when they
are allowed to run at large they create
problems for the environment, themselves and
the community. He felt that cats should be
treated the same as dogs.
Chief Delmont stated that it would be
extremely difficult to enforce the proposed
cat ordinance and the Police Department policy
would be to not strictly enforce it. He
informed Council that the department has only
three cat complaints on file, including the
complaint from Mr. Johnson and his neighbor.
Councilmember Cummins stated that he has never
received complaints about cats. He further
stated that the Police Department is already
working to maximum capacity and if Council
adopted the cat controls they would largely be
unenforceable.
Mr. Earl Christie, 1064 Esther Lane, stated
that he has owned cats for 28 years and has
never had any complaints from his neighbors.
With respect to the proposed leashing
requirement, he stated that he has tried
putting his current cat on a leash but has
never been able to break the cat to it.
Councilmember Smith stated that she would have
difficulty voting for an ordinance that cannot
be enforced.
Mayor Mertensotto stated that he has had three
or four complaints about cats and has had to
respond that the City has no ordinance
controlling cats except the nuisance
ordinance. He stated that even though the
Police Chief has indicated that the ordinance
would not be aggressively enforced, adoption
of the ordinance would provide regulations.
Councilmember Blesener agreed, stating that
Council must acknowledge that there must be a
tool available to deal with problem cats.
Page No. 3082
August 6, 1991
Mr. Johnson stated that several surrounding
communities have similar ordinances and have
had no problems with them. He has spoken to
his neighbors who let their cats run, but has
had no success since there is no ordinance to
give him some leverage. He did not feel that
the ordinance would create a hardship for
anyone.
Councilmember Cummins suggested that perhaps
the leverage Mr. Johnson seeks is to amend the
trapping ordinance without amending the animal
control ordinance, which would give him the
ability to humanely trap cats on his property.
Mr. Johnson responded that he favors leashing
and licensing of cats.
Councilmember Cummins moved adoption of
Ordinance No. 279, "AN ORDINANCE AMENDING
ORDINANCE NO. 914,11 to permit the humane
trapping of domestic animals.
