AIR NOISE Air Noise Consultant Bob Collette was present
to review proposed air corridor modifications.
He gave Council and the audience a history of
the City's involvement in the air noise issue,
and explained the proposed corridor
modifications which would establish a defined
north boundary for departures of 105 degrees
off runway 11L. Mr. Collette informed Council
that the proposal has been made by the MAC
Blue Ribbon Committee and while it has been
embraced by the local FAA, it must go through
regional and national review. Mr. Collette
reviewed overheads of the two departure tracks
for Council.
Mayor Mertensotto informed the audience that
the proposal gives the City a northern
corridor boundary which can be argued and
protected. He explained that last year there
were 350,000 operations from the airport and
55 to 60% of those operations were over
Mendota Heights and Eagan. The proposed
corridor is very important to Mendota Heights
because it would mean that planes will be
confined to the corridor instead of flying all
over the City, and that planes must fly four-
tenths of a mile beyond the end of the runway
before changing headings. If the proposal is
approved, planes will no longer depart over
the Roger's Lake, Curley's and Friendly Hills
neighborhoods. Departures will still affect
homes in Bridgeview and the southern parts of
Copperfield. He stated that the proposal is a
major breakthrough for the City and is the
culmination of more than two years of efforts.
Responding to a question from Councilmember
Smith, Mr. Collette stated that he does not
Page No. 3009
February 5, 1991
know how quickly the proposal can be effected
but that he is hoping for a spring or summer
implementation.
CASE NO. 90-44, STRUB Mayor Mertensotto informed the audience that
Mayor Mertensotto asked whether additional
future variances will be needed to accommodate
the expansion. Mr. Glowa responded that the
preliminary plat Council originally reviewed
for phase 2 was for a 3.77 acre site but that
the site has been expanded to 5.35 acres to
accommodate the potential building expansion.
Mr. Glowa asked that Council authorize the use
of $60,000 in Tax Increment Financing to
assist in the costs of creating a retention
pond on the Solvay site.
Mayor Mertensotto asked Public Works Director
Danielson whether the proposed pond is
necessary as part of the Solvay Phase 2
development.
consideration of an application from William
Strub for the subdivision of property on T.H.
13 had been scheduled on the agenda but that
the Planning Commission had continued its
hearing to February.
Councilmember Koch moved that consideration of
the application for subdivision be tabled to
the March 5th Council meeting.
Councilmember Smith seconded the motion.
Ayes: 3
Nays: 0
HEARING, CASE NO.
Mayor Mertensotto opened the meeting for the
91-02, SOLVAY
purpose of a public hearing on an application
from Solvay Animal Health for an amendment to
its conditional use permit for Planned Unit
Development to allow construction of Phase II
of its development.
Mr. Dale Glowa, from United Properties,
explained that Solvay has asked United to
construct a second building for Solvay's
office campus. He reviewed drawings for
Council and the audience and stated that
Solvay has asked United to enlarge its site to
allow for a future 12,000 square foot
expansion of the building - the total building
size he is proposing could eventually be
42,000 square foot.
Mayor Mertensotto asked whether additional
future variances will be needed to accommodate
the expansion. Mr. Glowa responded that the
preliminary plat Council originally reviewed
for phase 2 was for a 3.77 acre site but that
the site has been expanded to 5.35 acres to
accommodate the potential building expansion.
Mr. Glowa asked that Council authorize the use
of $60,000 in Tax Increment Financing to
assist in the costs of creating a retention
pond on the Solvay site.
Mayor Mertensotto asked Public Works Director
Danielson whether the proposed pond is
necessary as part of the Solvay Phase 2
development.
Page No. 3010
February 5, 1991
Mr. Danielson responded that the storm sewer
system for the industrial park was constructed
many years ago under then-prevailing design
criteria. Since that time, there have been
several large water events which caused
flooding in the business park, and staff has
asked Barr Engineering, as part of their
overall storm water plan, to recommend steps
which should be taken to resolve the problems.
He stated that since the plan will not be done
for six months, staff has asked the developers
of this project to do what they can to hold
back water on their site. He informed council
that because this is the largest available
site in the business park the developers have
been asked to develop a retention pond. He
stated that creation of a pond in the middle
of the site would solve the drainage problems,
and that 1.5 acres would be needed for water
storage on the site. He informed Council that
the developers feel that a good way to handle
the water would be to create an aesthetically
designed storm water pond which would enhance
the development. The City would not own the
pond but would purchase an easement (through
T.I.F.), and Solvay would do the maintenance
on the pond.
Mr. Glowa stated that the overall cost of the
project is much higher than is stated in Mr.
Danielson's memo to Council, but that Solvay
feels it makes a good deal of sense to turn
the pond into an aesthetic feature, with
extensive landscaping and adding a fountain,
and that they are willing to bear the cost to
enhance and maintain the pond.
Treasurer Shaughnessy informed Council that
the City's bond counsel has determined that
this would be an appropriate expenditure of
tax increment funding and that there is
sufficient funding available.
Mr. Glowa responded to Council questions
regarding the proposed variances for the
number, parking ratio of 4 spaces per 1,000
square feet of building versus 5 spaces/1,000,
and parking space width of 8.5 feet versus 9
feet. He stated that the requested parking
variances are consistent with what has been
done in the business park.
Mayor Mertensotto pointed out that the
requested amendment to the conditional use
Page No. 3011
February 5, 1991
permit for P.U.D. includes variances for
parking ratio (4 spaces per 1,000 square
feet), parking stall size (8.5 feet), a 20
foot variance for sign setback, and an 8 foot
sideyard setback variance for a covered
walkway.
Mayor Mertensotto asked for questions and
comments from the audience.
There being no questions or comments,
Councilmember Smith moved that the hearing be
closed.
Councilmember Koch seconded the motion.
Ayes: 3
Nays: 0
Councilmember Smith moved adoption of
Resolution No. 91-06, "A RESOLUTION APPROVING
AMENDMENT TO A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR A
PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT FOR SOLVAY ANIMAL
HEALTH PHASE II," as amended to delineate the
requested four variances, along with approval
for a Tax Increment Financing expenditure in
the sum of $60,000 to assist in the storm
water holding pond proposed for the site and
authorization for issuance of the necessary
building permit.
Councilmember Koch seconded the motion.

HEARING: CASE NO. Mayor Mertensotto opened the meeting for the
91-01, ST. PAUL purpose of a public hearing on an application
TURNER'S CLUB from the St. Paul Turner's Club for rezoning
and minor Comprehensive Plan amendment. He
informed the audience that the Planning
Commission has continued its hearing to
February 26th and has recommended Council
continuation to March 5th.
Councilmember Koch moved that the hearing on
Case No. 91-01 be continued to 8:15 P.M. on
March 5th.
Councilmember Smith seconded the motion.

Nays: 0
HEARING, CASE NO. Mayor Mertensotto opened the meeting for the
90-39, PUTNAM purpose of a public hearing on an application
from R.A. Putnam Associates for a
comprehensive plan amendment for a
neighborhood commercial center. Mayor
Mertensotto informed the audience that Mr.
Page No. 3012
February 5, 1991
Putnam is unable to attend the meeting and has
requested that it be continued.
Councilmember Koch moved that the hearing on
Case No. 90 -39 be continued to 8:00 P.M. on
February 19th.
Councilmember Smith seconded the motion.
Ayes: 3
Nays: 0
CASE NO. 91- 03,MOSSMAN Ms. Bonnie Mossman was present to request
approval of the use of a temporary business
sign at 2150 Dodd Road (T. Belvidere's) which
requires a twelve foot front yard setback
variance and seven square foot sign size
variance. Ms. Mossman stated that she would
like permission to install the portable 32
square foot sign on her property for 90 days.
Councilmember Smith moved to approve a
temporary 25 foot front yard setback variance
and 7 foot sign area variance to allow a
temporary portable four by eight foot business
sign to be located at T.Belvidere's for 90
days.
Councilmember Koch seconded the motion.
Ayes: 3
Nays: 0
CASE NO. 91 -04, Ms. Sylvia Pentel and her legal representa-
PENTEL tive, John Bellows, were present to request
approval of a thirty -seven foot height
variance to allow construction of a 68 foot
high crank -up tower to support a rotatable
beam ham radio antenna on her property at 556
Fremont Avenue.
Mr. Bellows stated that Ms. Pentel is seeking
the variance to construct and maintain a well -
engineered tower and antenna system to provide
reasonably adequate communications at a
minimum height. Ms. Pentel is federally
licensed. She has submitted specifications on
a retractable tower which is engineered to a
safety factor of two, and is rated to
withstand 80 mile per hour winds. It would
have no guywires and would be a self -
supporting tower which is retractable to 29
feet if necessary.
Mayor Mertensotto asked the lot size and the
proposed location of the tower.
Page No. 3013
February 5, 1991
Mr. Bellows responded that the lot is 60 feet
wide by 120 feet deep and that the tower would
be located within ten feet of the back of the
home, adjacent to an existing deck. He
further stated that there are 60 foot tall
cottonwood trees behind the Pentel lot.
Mayor Mertensotto asked if there are two
existing antennas on the home.
Mr. Bellows responded that there are, and that
they are vertical, single rod antennas that
extend up about 45 feet. The proposed tower
antenna would greatly increase the reliability
of transmission and reduce the likelihood of
interference with the neighbors. He further
stated that Ms. Pentel feels the 68 foot tower
is the minimum height needed for reliable
communications and that she feels that because
of the nature of the communications it is
important to have a certain minimum height.
He stated that Ms. Pentel is operating on a
frequency which requires 62 to 68 feet of
height for reliability. He recognized that
there is neighborhood opposition, but that Ms.
Pentel is proposing an installation that is a
minimum necessary in terms of height and
placement. It will be visible but not as much
as people think. He stated that it is not the
only structure in the neighborhood that is
visible that people find unattractive, and
showed Council pictures of existing power
poles, a transmission tower about a block
away, etc., that people might not consider
"works of art" in the neighborhood. He
further stated that the Council approved an
application for an antenna tower on Delaware
in 1987.
Mayor Mertensotto responded that he has looked
at the antenna on Delaware. There was no
neighborhood objection to that antenna, and
the applicant assured Council that there would
be limited use and it would be nested often.
He further felt that a tower of this type
could topple down on someone else's property
or home and therefore presents a potential
safety hazard.
Mr. Bellows stated that such towers are
engineered with those specific considerations
in mind and that if the tower was extended to
68 feet in storm conditions, it is possible to
nest it at 28 feet, which is not true for
Page No. 3014
February 5, 1991
other structures, such as trees, which could
more easily fall. He felt that trees present
much more of a hazard than the tower would.
He suggested that failure to grant the
variance would prevent Ms. Pentel from doing a
ham radio activity. He stated that Council
must deal with a 1985 issue from the FCC which
states that local regulations involving the
placement, screening or height of antennas
based on health, safety or aesthetics must
represent minimum practical regulations. He
informed Council that he has given the City
Attorney six citations which have dealt with
the issue: in each of the six, the actions by
councils to unduly restrict the height of
towers have been overturned, and in two, the
court has awarded attorney fees. He stated
that Ms. Pentel is proposing a well - engineered
tower, and minimally necessary height to
provide reasonable operation, and that the
objections based on interference, etc., are
either based on misunderstanding or
aesthetics.
Mayor Mertensotto stated that the Tower on
Delaware was the first to be approved and was
only approved because there was no
neighborhood objection. He stated that the
City has a responsibility as far as safety of
the towers, and asked why the application
should have the right to put up something that
could fall over onto someone else's property.
He further pointed out that the City does not
allow buildings of the height proposed by the
applicant for the tower. He the offered an
opportunity for Ms. Pentel's neighbors to
speak on the matter.
Ms. Elizabeth Plummer, 605 Garden Lane, spoke
to the comparisons between the Pentel request
and the tower on Delaware. She stated that on
Delaware, the tower runs right along the
fireplace and goes just to the top of the
chimney and is barely noticeable. The
proposed Pentel tower is not unlike the metal
structure for a windmill and is very
unsightly. She further stated that Ms. Pentel
has stated that when the tower is up it would
be used to record the wind velocity, yet she
also says that during wind storms she would
lower the tower - which is contradictory. She
pointed out that Ms. Pentel has two towers now
- one is a wind monitor, which she has seen at
a 90 degree angle when it is windy. She
Page No. 3015
February 5, 1991
wondered what such winds would do to a 68 foot
tall structure. She informed Council that she
has submitted a petition of opposition signed
by 25 neighbors who oppose the request, and
that she could get many more signatures if she
had more time. She felt that the tower could
interfere with television and radio reception,
garage door openers, and mobile telephones,
and it could tip over in a wind. She pointed
out that ham radio operation is a hobby for
Ms. Pentel but that the rest of the neighbors
would be made to sacrifice for her hobby. She
felt that the tower is unsightly and that
there is not room in the yard for such a
massive structure.
Mr. Robert Cunningham, 561 Hiawatha, stated
that he lives directly behind Ms. Pentel's
property and that he echoes Mrs. Plummer's
comments and protests the tower request.
Mayor Mertensotto asked Ms. Pentel what the
tower would offer over what she already has
available with the existing antennas.
Ms. Pentel responded that there would be
better communication, it would be more
liability, and it would provide the ability to
communicate anywhere in the U.S. It is a
directional antenna and allows her to make
contact anywhere she needs to. She stated
that communication must be reliable or it is
no good and the her present system is not
reliable for what she wants to do. It is good
for what it is designed to do, but the
proposed tower is for a different type of
transmission. She stated that she needs long
range capability and reliability and that ham
radio operation is not just her hobby.
Mayor Mertensotto stated that he does not like
to have a situation which pits neighbors
against each other and that it is obvious that
the neighbors are concerned over the height of
the structure.
Mr. Don Driver, acting area manager for the
National Medical Disaster System, stated that
Ms. Pentel is his communications officer, and
is a volunteer. The disaster system is
prepared to respond to major disasters. There
are other forms of communication used on a
daily basis, - telephone, computers, etc., but
there are those situations where back up
Page No. 3016
February 5, 1991
communications are necessary and maybe even
primary if there were a tornado and the City
was damaged. He stated that one of the most
important aspects of any emergency is
communication. He suggested that the City's
Fire Department may be a part of the disaster
system, and informed Council that there are 22
participating medical centers throughout the
seven-county metro area. The amateur network
can communicate verbally and electronically
over the airwaves and can also transmit a
television signal electronically, and he can
see that communication in his emergency
operations center. He stated that if a
tornado came through, the neighbors would be
very glad they had the tower to get help.
Responding to Mrs. Plummer's comments, Mr.
Bellows stated that the tower is not windmill
size and that the structure on Delaware is 8
feet from the property line whereas the Pentel
tower would be 16 feet from the property line.
He stated that he presumes there is no more of
a safety concern with the Pentel proposal than
the Delaware tower. With respect to
interference, he stated that he is reluctant
to tell someone they cannot do something, but
that radio interference is within the
exclusive province of the FCC, and the fact is
that Ms. Pentel is responsible to be sure she
is not the cause of any interference. He is
not aware of any complaints of interference at
this time and has no reason to think there
would be more interference with a taller
tower.
Mrs. Plummer stated that the proposal sounds
very commercial to her and it is not a
commercial area.
Mayor Mertensotto responded that this is not
the issue, that the issue is does the City
want to allow the tower from a health, welfare
and safety standpoint without unduly
interfering with Ms. Pentel's right to be a
ham radio operator. He asked Ms. Pentel if
reception for the existing antennas would be
improved if the trees were topped. Mr.
Bellows responded that it would not, that
reception is degraded because the trees are
there but to have reliable communications a
certain elevation is needed - and Ms. Pentel
is saying that the minimum necessary to
achieve this level is 62 to 68 feet.
Page No. 3017
February 5, 1991
Councilmember Smith asked what the range of
the Ms. Pentel's current system is.
Ms. Pentel responded that she could go around
the world with the proposed tower. She can
sporadically get various places in the U.S.
now, but it is not reliable for a distance.
She would have more availability of
international and thorough nation -wide
transmission with the tower.
Mrs. Lorraine Gerten, 542 Fremont, stated that
nothing has been mentioned with respect to
electrical current or how far the tower would
be from the power lines.
Mr. Bellows responded that radio energy is
located in the top of the antenna and is radio
frequency energy, and is not 110 or 220 volt.
The tower at full extension would not, even if
it fell, hit the power lines.
Mayor Mertensotto stated that Mr. Bellows has
quoted citations on the FCC ruling, but
Council has control over heights and types of
structures allowed.
Mr. Bellows responded that in the citations,
PRB -1 was in conflict with the Zoning
Ordinance where it restricts antennas to less
than 60 feet and that each case over -rode the
action of the City in denying a variance or
conditional use permit.
Councilmember Smith asked whether all of the
cases dealt just with antennas or did they
deal with other structures.
Mr. Bellows responded that they specifically
related to amateur towers and antennas.
Mayor Mertensotto asked whether the ordinances
in question were trying to regulate amateur
radio towers. Mr. Bellows responded that most
were general height restrictions for any
structure.
City Attorney Hart stated that the question is
what is minimally necessary in order to
reasonably accommodate amateur communications.
The City's ordinance does not preclude amateur
radio communications. Council must balance
the needs of the amateur radio operators
Page No. 3018
February 5, 1991
against local needs. Council must determine
that if it feels if the tower is unsafe at 62
feet or whatever height, at what level would
it be safe.
Mr. Bellows agreed that the ordinance does not
prohibit amateur radio operation but stated
that the conflict is height, and Ms. Pentel
believes that 68 feet is necessary and no one
has rebutted that.
Council directed that the matter be continued
to the February 19th meeting and that the City
Attorney prepare a report on what discretion
is available to Council in the matter.
WEED CUTTING Council acknowledged a memo from Weed
Inspector Dick Gill regarding the weed
ordinance and enforcement policy. Public
Works Director Danielson the memo is in
response to issues raised by Council - concern
over the response time for getting weeds cut
and providing for exemption language in the
ordinance.
It was the consensus that one certified ten
day notice to cut weeds is sufficient time for
response/action by property owners, and that
staff should prepare an ordinance amendment to
provide for the granting of exceptions to the
ordinance. Mayor Mertensotto suggested that
the weed cutting regulations should be
addressed in the next issue of Heights
Hilites.
SCHOUVELLER PROPERTY Council acknowledged a memo from Treasurer
TIF PURCHASE REQUEST Shaughnessy regarding interest expressed by
Mr. Jerry Schouveller for the sale of his
property on Roger's Road to the City. Mr.
Schouveller was present for the discussion.
Mr. Shaughnessy explained that the purchase of
the five residential properties on Roger's
Road was included in the TIF plan because they
are non-conforming uses in a B-1 District and
are located within the airport noise zones.
Council discussed the matter with Mr.
Schouveller and his representative. It was
pointed out that the City's appraisal of the
vacant lots is considerably less per square
foot than is the appraisal which was done for
Mr. Schouveller by Metzen Realty, and that the
$3.36/square foot in the Metzen appraisal is
Page No. 3019
February 5, 1991
higher than $2.94 /square foot cost for the
Solvay drainage easement even though the
Solvay property is fully improved.
Mayor Mertensotto suggested that Mr.
Schouveller come back with a new proposal if
he wishes.
CITY HALL PAYMENT Council acknowledged and discussed a memo from
Treasurer Shaughnessy regarding a request from
the City Hall general contractor for payment
of $11,277.61 of the $18,000 withheld on the
construction contract. Mr. Shaughnessy stated
that the contractor is requesting
reimbursement for work that has been done on
excavation to correct the drainage problem and
water seepage damage. He stated that the
question needing to be considered is whether
the $5,000 which the City would continue to
hold is sufficient to correct remaining
problems. He pointed out that it cannot yet
be determined whether the drainage correction
will work.
Building Manager Guy Kullander stated that the
City withheld the $18,000 to cover a number of
I problems needing correction. He informed
Council that staff has asked the contractor to
give the City a written description of how he
plans to correct the deficiencies, including
correcting drainage along the back sidewalk by
the Police Department and repairing carpet and
wall damage caused by the water seepage on the
south side of the building.
It was the consensus that funds would not be
released until all problems are corrected and
until it can be determined that the drainage
corrections on the south side of the building
will work.
MENDAKOTA PARK BIDS Mr. Kullander gave the Council a brief
ARCHITECTURAL SERVICE background on the Mendakota Park acquisition
and development, including review of currently
proposed development plans.
Mayor Mertensotto commented that the comfort
station roof pitch is so steep that the roof
would be the focal point in the park. He
suggested that the roof should be lower
profile.
Mr. Kullander informed Council that the
observation deck on the comfort station and

the bandshell/picnic pavilion have been added
to the original park concept. He then briefly
reviewed the anticipated costs and available
funding. He asked for Council authorization
to advertise for bids to construct the fields,
parking lot, trail, fence, etc.
Council acknowledged a memo from Public Works
Director Danielson regarding a request from
Station 19 Architects that Council approve a
$1,750 increase in its contract for Mendakota
Park architecture because of the increased
scope of the project.
After discussion, Councilmember Smith moved to
accept the plans and specifications for the
Mendakota Community Park and authorize
advertisement for bids, and to increase the
architectural agreement with Station 19
Architects by $1,750 in recognition of
additional work requested by the City.
Councilmember Koch seconded the motion.

Councilmember Koch seconded the motion.
It was the consensus that Council meet at 6:30
P.M. on February 19th to interview individuals
who have applied for appointment to the
Planning Commission vacancy created by the
retirement of Jerry Morson.
COUNCIL WORKSHOPS Council acknowledged and discussed a memo from
the City Administrator regarding the
scheduling of Council/Commission teambuilding
and goal setting workshops.
It was the consensus that the goal setting
workshop be held on Saturday, March 2nd from
8:30 A.M. to 12:30 P.M. and that the
Page No. 3021
February 5, 1991
teambuilding session be tentatively scheduled
for April 6th.
PERRON PROPERTY Council acknowledged a memo from Administrator
Lawell regarding an offer from the Margaret
Perron Estate for the sale of 2370 Highway 55
to the City. Mayor Mertensotto pointed out
that Council has made a decision not to
acquire any more properties in the Furlong
Addition, and felt that there is no reason for
the City to acquire the property.
It was the consensus of Council that the offer
be declined.
ADJOURN There being no further business to come before
the Council, Councilmember Smith moved that
the meeting be adjourned to 6:30 P.M. on
February 19th for Commission candidate
interviews.
