Ayes: 4 Nays: 0 Absent: 1 PULLED CONSENT AGENDA ITEM A) APPROVAL OF MAY 6, 2014 CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Councilmember Duggan asked if the findings of fact should be included in the minutes for the resolutions that were adopted. Councilmember Petschel asked for clarification that the findings are included in the resolutions. City Administrator Justin Miller replied that it is not the practice to include the findings in the minutes as they are included the resolutions. However, if Council desires, the findings could be included in the minutes going forward. Councilmember Petschel stated that she is satisfied as the findings are on record. Councilmember Duggan moved to approve the May 6, 2014 City Council minutes as presented. Councilmember Petschel seconded the motion. Ayes: 4 Nays: 0 Absent: 1 B) APPROVAL OF MAY 7, 2014 AIRPORT RELATIONS COMMISSION MINUTES Councilmember Petschel noted two important dates in the minutes. The Airport Relations Commission meeting will be televised on June 11 at 7:00 p.m. There will be a presentation by John Nelson, Manager of Noise, Environment and Planning at MAC. Also, the Metropolitan Airport Commission public comment meeting will be held on July 29 at 7:00 p.m. in the Mendota Heights Council Chambers. The commission will be listening and fielding residents' concerns regarding the airport. Councilmember Petschel moved to approve the May 7, 2014 Airport Relations Commission minutes. Councilmember Duggan seconded the motion. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 page 4 C) APPROVAL OF MAY 13, 2014 PARKS AND REC COMMISSION MINUTES Councilmember Duggan clarified the Parks and Recreation meeting minutes regarding the discussion of the potential dog park in Mendota Heights. The commissioners studied and listened to reports regarding five possible sites and determined that none of those sites were acceptable as they would prefer something larger. Yet, they chose the small hockey rink for the dog park site which is smaller than the acre they preferred. Councilmember Duggan noted that this is a topic that will tax and test residents and Councilmembers as they search for a solution that will satisfy the residents and the dog owners. Councilmember Duggan moved to table the May 13, 2014 Parks and Rec Commission minutes to give the Commission an opportunity to expand on the minutes. Councilmember Norton seconded the motion. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 H) ACCEPT RETIREMENT OF SERGEANT NEIL GARLOCK Chief of Police Michael Aschenbrener stated that Sergeant Neil Garlock has decided that Thursday, May 29, 2014 will be his last day with the City, after 24 years of service. He started in 1990, bringing over 10 years of law enforcement experience and four years in the United States Marine Corp with him. He has had a hand in training every officer hired since 1990. He has been Chief Aschenbrener's right-hand man for the last eight years. He has always made decisions with the city of Mendota Heights in mind and in his heart. For the last seven years, he has donated many volunteer hours to Special Olympics on behalf of the Mendota Heights 5K race. Councilmembers made comments in appreciation for all that Sergeant Garlock has done and in congratulating him on his retirement. Councilmember Petschel moved to accept the retirement of Sergeant Neil Garlock, with regrets. Councilmember Norton seconded the motion. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 I) APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION 2014-29 RECOGNITION OF PUBLIC WORKS WEEK L) DESIGNATION OF MAY 30, 2014 AS "TOM OLUND DAY" Councilmember Duggan stated that as Mr. Tom Olund had been the head of the Public Works Department for many years, it would be appropriate to combine the designation of Tom Olund Day with the recognition of National Public Works week. He, along with all of the residents of Mendota Heights, wished to thank the department for their snow plowing efforts and all of the other work that helps to keep the city pristine and beautiful. page 5 Councilmember Duggan then read the proclamation declaring Tom Olund Day. Councilmember Duggan moved to approve the proclamation designating of Friday, May 30, 2014 "TOM OLUND DAY". Councilmember Povolny seconded the motion. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 Councilmember Norton moved to approve Resolution 2014-29 Recognition of Public Works Week. Councilmember Duggan seconded the motion. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 K) APPROVAL OF MENDOTA TECHNOLOGY CENTER 4TH ADDITION DEVELOPER'S AGREEMENT Councilmember Duggan noted that Section 1, Item N of the agreement references items the Council has not seen. Planner Nolan Wall reviewed the items which included changes that had been made to the planned landscaping and screening on the western boundary of the site. Councilmember Duggan moved to approve the Mendota Technology Center 4th Addition Developer's Agreement. Councilmember Norton seconded the motion. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 PRESENTATIONS A) CONVENT OF THE VISITATION "ROBETTES" ROBOTICS TEAM Students Madeleine Logeais and Claire Sebastian, members of "The Robettes" First Robotics Team gave a brief background on their robotics team and the competition for 2014. The team won one of their regionals by designing, building, and competing with their 120 pound robot named "Gracie". Also, Madeleine Logeais was awarded the prestigious Dean's List Award at the For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology (FIRST®) Robotics World Championship — , one of ten people worldwide to win the 2014 award at the First competition in St. Louis, Missouri. The students presented information on their team's outreach into the community and how that has impacted the team and Visitation School; and their leadership activities in helping younger robotics teams learn and grow. PUBLIC COMMENTS There were no public comments. page 6 NEW AND UNFINISHED BUSINESS A) APPROVING STUDENT REPRESENTATIVE POSITION FOR PARKS AND REC COMMISSION Mayor Krebsbach, referencing a memo from Sloan Wallgren, Recreation Program Coordinator, noted that the Parks and Recreation Commission would like to add a student representative to the commission who would be chosen from Henry Sibley High School, Visitation School, or St. Thomas Academy. Recreation Program Coordinator Sloan Wallgren explained to the Council that the main goal of the student representative would be to keep an open line of communication with the youth in the city and the Parks and Recreation Commission. Councilmember Povolny asked if this would be a two-year or a four-year term. Mr. Wallgren replied that this would be a one-year term; however, a student could be reappointed for a second term. Mayor Krebsbach noted that there are other high school students in the area but the idea was to have someone who goes to school and lives in Mendota Heights on the commission. Mayor Krebsbach asked how the selection would be made. Mr. Wallgren answered that the position would be appointed by the City Council after receiving responses from advertisements in the fall. Councilmember Duggan moved to approve the student representative position for Parks and Recreation commission. Councilmember Povolny seconded the motion. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 B. ORDINANCE 462, AMENDING CITY CODE TO PROHIBIT PARKING ON CITY STREETS SURROUNDING HENRY SIBLEY HIGH SCHOOL Mayor Krebsbach explained that this is not a public hearing but the Council would welcome comments from the community, after which Council would confer and decide how to move forward. City Engineer John Mazzitello started with a very brief background of the issue. He then explained the parking requirements for Sibley High School based on the city code. For parking at a high school, the City Code requires one stall for every seven students, based on the capacity of the high school, plus one stall for every three classrooms in the building. According to building plans from the 2006 facility renovations, the student capacity of Henry Sibley High School is 1,635 students; which would require 234 parking stalls. There are also 90 classrooms in the facility; which would require an additional 30 stalls, for a total requirement of 264 parking stalls. On the site itself, in the main lot of Henry Sibley High School, there are 367 parking stalls. There are an additional page 7 53 stalls for a separate lot that is dedicated to the offices of School District 197. There are 50 stalls in the maintenance, operation, and food service lot on the east side of the main building and 52 stalls in the southeast lot mentioned before — at Delaware and Mendota Road. Of those 367 parking stalls, 100 of them are allocated to faculty and staff, 230 allocated to students, 8 allocated to visitors; these do not include ADA stalls. Also, according to District 197, for the 2013-14 school year they have issued 197 parking permits at $100/semester. There are also 10-15 day permits issued at $2.00/day per vehicle. No one has ever been turned down for a parking pass due to a lack of space in the lot. In a non-scientific observation, counting nine different times picked at random, of how many cars are parked on Warrior Drive; the counts ranged from 35 to 72, with an average of 47.5. With the construction of the North Urban Regional Trail realignment, there are going to be three no - parking anytime areas along the east side of Warrior Drive. City Engineer Mazzitello then shared an aerial photograph of the parking areas described above. Ordinance City Engineer Mazzitello shared a copy of the map that was sent out to the area residents outlining the areas already designated as no parking anytime areas and the areas being proposed as no parking from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. The map also showed the no parking anytime that would be established with the realignment of NURT. The map and notice was sent out to residents within an approximate 750 -foot radius of the school. The no parking areas would consist of the south side of Marie Avenue, all of Ridgewood, the east half of Callahan, the east side of Warrior Drive not impacted by NURT, all of High Ridge Circle, and all of Sibley Court. Questions/Comments from Council Mayor Krebsbach asked for clarification that there are 367 total student parking stalls. Engineer Mazzitello replied that the student parking, as allocated by Henry Sibley School, is 230 in the main lot and 52 in the southeast lot; for a total of 367 total student parking stalls at Henry Sibley. Councilmember Duggan asked if the numbers just mentioned include the unofficial parallel parking spots on the north end of the parking area. Engineer Mazzitello replied that the 367 stalls are all of the faculty/staff, all of student parking, the 29 unallocated parallel parking stalls, and eight visitor parking stalls. Councilmember Povolny commented on the number of empty parking spots. Engineer Mazzitello stated that the school district did a count on May 15 and it showed, counting the ADA stalls, that in the student lot they had 239 available spaces with seven of them open. In the faculty lot, there were 143 spaces and 34 were open; Engineer Mazzitello believed that number included the maintenance, operation, and food service lot on the east side. The District 197 office had 58 stalls with 10 open, there were 4 open visitor slots, and the southeastern lot had all 52 stalls open. That gave a total of 107 open stalls on the site. In the main lot (student lot and faculty lot combined), there were 41 open stalls. page 8 Councilmember Petschel noted that on the particular day that this count was taken, realistically there were only seven open student parking stalls available in the north lot and 52 in the southeastern lot. Engineer Mazzitello confirmed. Mayor Krebsbach asked if enrollment were to go up at Henry Sibley at what point would they be out of compliance with parking stalls. Engineer Mazzitello replied that by the equation of one stall for every seven students plus one stall for every three classrooms — without any facility adjustments, when the population hits a point where that number would go over 367 — they would be noncompliant with the City code. Henry Sibley would have to have 2,359 students before they would be noncompliant with the Code requirements. Councilmember Duggan asked when the referendum was used to build a couple of schools and used to redesign Henry Sibley, if that increased the number of classrooms. Engineer Mazzitello replied that the most recent set of plans on file are from 2006; the only set of plans this was compared to was the original construction plans in 1965 andyes, capacity increased between those two sets of plans. Currently the numbers are covering the maximum capacity of the school as it now stands. Public Comments Mr. Mark Spurr, School Board Chair of School District 197, stated the School District and City have had a good partnership over the years. When this issue of parking on Warrior Drive was first brought up, he felt it was not the School Board's jurisdiction. As an elected official, he feels that not charging the students for parking is not the solution. Personally, he has struggled with understanding the harm being caused by student parking on Warrior Drive. As he has talked with many families and realizes what harm could occur if the parking ban went into effect. He has a strong belief that the Council has the best interest of the community at heart. Mr. Spurr stated that the school board had a discussion and the message they wish to convey is; please do not implement this parking ban but join with them and with the residents of Warrior Drive to determine how best the long-term parking needs of the community and students can be met, in a way that is sensitive to the needs and concerns of the residents along Warrior Drive. He encouraged the Council to join with the school board to come up with a better and fairer plan of action. Ms. Sharon Benmaman, a parent of two students who attend Henry Sibley and park on Warrior Drive, asked what the basis would be for putting this ban into place. Mayor Krebsbach replied that the residents of Warrior Drive presented it as a public safety issue. Ms. Benmaman asked, with the public safety issue, how many accidents there have been on Warrior Drive. Chief of Police Michael Aschenbrener replied that in the last 10 years there have been approximately two. She then asked for the number of tickets given on Warrior Drive; the answer was unavailable. She then asked how `public safety' was defined. Councilmember Petschel commented that, having been down in the area first thing in the morning and in the afternoon, as far as the neighbors are concerned, the issue is that the student cars are having to do a U- or Y -turn to get into the proper position to park. This can be up to 70 cars in a relatively short period of time. At the same time there are school buses on Warrior Drive picking up the residents' younger children. Councilmember Petschel continued by stating that another concern regards trash. page 9 Councilmember Povolny commented that there is also loud music and noise. Ms. Benmaman commented that if this really is a safety issue why would the ban be only from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Ms. Benmaman shared enrollment projections completed by the former State demographer, indicating that the number of student drivers could increase and she wondered where would the rest of the student drivers would park. Ms. Benmaman then listed other solutions and why they would not be viable: • Ask the school to build a new lot — legally the school is in compliance so they could not be forced to build a new lot • Use taxpayer money to build a new lot — possible but not ideal • The City could change its code — the school would be grandfathered in until they remodel • Use other surrounding roads — the frontage road would need to become one-way or widened, Delaware is a county road, Marie was deemed as unfeasible for large-scale daily parking • Limit the number of students who could drive to school. If the Warrior Drive parking ban does go through, the school would probably start out with limiting the availability of parking Ms. Benmaman suggested the residents, school, district board, and the City Council to work together to come up with alternative creative solutions. Councilmember Povolny commented that he agreed with a lot of Ms. Benmaman's thoughts. He stated the right people are now getting together and realizing as a group that this needs to be resolved. He understands the concerns of the residents and students; he also understands the no pay part of parking on the street. Ms. Reine Shiffman, 1595 Diane Road, a former elected official of the school board, clarified the 'free parking' suggestion by commenting that the state provides transportation money for buses; however, it is not enough. Therefore, anytime the District has to pay for something, education has less funding. She also mentioned that Country Day School is right next to Diane Road which has parking on both sides of the street. The parking is horrendous, but she recognizes that the children who attend Country Day School and the staff who park on her street are doing something that is part of the community — of which she is a part of as well. She is hopeful that this issue would be looked at from an entire community point of view, rather than just a neighborhood point of view. Ms. Holly Farber (1701 James Road) and Ms. Nancy Goldberger (588 High Ridge Circle), both of whom have children attending Henry Sibley, mentioned that they walk their dogs along Warrior Drive in the morning and afternoon. They cannot imagine how anyone could have a problem with parking on Warrior Drive as it is a big, wide street. They have never had a problem with the students. She noted that the buses dropping the school students off are on High Ridge — not on Warrior Drive. Ms. Goldberger also noted that the south parking lot is pretty remote and that she does not believe the area is plowed in the winter. It was pointed out that High Ridge Circle has access just off of Warrior Drive and she has not heard of any complaints from the residents there. page 10 Ms. Bruber added that she is not aware of a trail between the lower lot and the school. The Council noted that there is a 10 -foot wide trail along Delaware Avenue. Ms. Bruber and Ms. Goldberg urged that there be no ban of parking on Warrior Drive. Mr. Kent Mogler, 592 High Ridge Circle, stated he has never had the concerns articulated and he has lived in the area for 18 years. He finds that the students that park on Warrior Drive are the least of his concerns about traffic. The students, for the most part, pull in and leave in a very respectful manner. He realizes that he lives in a neighborhood and needs to make accommodations. He asked for objectivity about the issue. Ms. Grace Brooks, a student at Henry Sibley, spoke on behalf of many students who could not be in attendance. Many of the students are in sports, activities, and AP testing is taking place this week. She is on the Henry Sibley student council and has spoken to many classmen and underclassmen; they are very concerned with the proposed parking ban on Warrior Drive and around the school. She then listed some of the responses she has received from other students regarding the proposal: • If parking is banned around the school, where are they expected to park • This seems mean-spirited • Why are the neighbors angry • What have they done to deserve this • Why would anyone against student parking move into a home next to school knowing that the students have parked there every day for the nine months during the school year; as well as at night and on weekends when the fields are being used • Henry Sibley was here way before any of the other neighboring houses were built • Why is the ban from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. when students are in school, but the ban is lifted during nights and weekends • If this ban passes, it would appear that student academics falls second to community recreational activities • Students feel that it is unjust that a few citizen's concerns are more important than an entire student body • The issues with littering, safety, or anything else along Warrior Drive has never been addressed by the administration or brought up in any assemblies • Students need to be allowed to park along Warrior Drive • It is understood why Sibley charges for parking passes in the lot because it encourages carpooling and we don't want more people driving to school than necessary; however, people need an alternative if they cannot afford the $100 per semester parking pass or if they do not drive every day These reasons and more are why students are asking that parking along Warrior Drive not be banned. Ms. Judy Hillstead, 666 Callahan Place, stated that those residents who live in her area feel very strongly that the students should be able to park on Warrior Drive. They feel that it is a very safe street, it is wide enough to handle both parking and two-way traffic, and there is no city thru-traffic as it mainly serves Sibley and the neighbors on the west side. Most of the walkers in the area use Warrior Drive as part of their route and they do not feel that their safety is in jeopardy. page 11 She also noted that she has walked that area in the last few days and has counted the cars. She counted 42 to 50 cars; of which 20 would be eliminated when the HURT traffic restrictions go in. She suggested that the kids be directed to travel south on Delaware, turn west onto the Highway 110 Frontage Road, go north up Warrior Drive to park, then after school they should continue north on Warrior and then exit east through the school parking lot. She stated that it is not only students that make the U-turns; parents coming to attend the ball games make U-turns as well. Mr. Kevin Ryan, 2470 Bridgeview Ct, is a 19 year resident of Mendota Heights, and all three of his children have graduated from Henry Sibley. He applauded the Council for trying to do what is best for the community. He drove down Warrior Drive before this meeting and found that it is easily five to six car widths wide. He offered that this be looked at from a practical standpoint. There are 20 spots that are going to be eliminated. He suggested that the Council table this topic to see the effects of those 20 spots on the traffic and that no U-turn signs are installed. The litter cannot be attributed directly to the students. Mr. Chris Mason, 10048 Oxborough Rd, asked why Knob Road was included as a place for parking; it is a smaller street with no turnaround. Engineer Mazzitello replied that Knob Road is located one block west of Warrior Drive and it was not included in the parking restrictions because if cars were to park on Knob Road that would be twice the length of a walk from the southeastern lot. It would be the City's hope that students parking outside of the Henry Sibley pay lot would choose that southeastern free lot first. Mr. Tom Thieman, 581 Sibley Court, applauded all of the comments made on behalf of students. He has lived in his house for 21 years and the parking has not been a major issue for him, although he has noticed an increase in student parking since the inception of student pay parking at the high school. Given that there would be fewer parking spots when the restricted parking for the trails takes effect, there may be one or two predictable affects in where the students who are currently parking on Warrior may go. One is they could be inclined to park further down on Warrior; the other is that they could start parking on High Ridge Circle or Sibley Court as these areas would be a shorter walk. Mr. Thieman suggested that the parking bans on High Ridge Circle and Sibley Court be put into effect so that when parking becomes in shorter supply on Warrior, the students do not park on residential streets. There is precedence for that because of the West St. Paul residential streets on the east side of Delaware being no parking areas. Upon being asked, Engineer Mazzitello and Chief Aschenbrener stated that it is assumed; however, it has not been verified that the City of West St. Paul installed the no parking signs in the subdivision east of Delaware Avenue. Mr. Stuart Simek, 577 High Ridge Circle, has lived in Mendota Heights for over 25 years and is a graduate of Henry Sibley. He commented that the ultimate goal is for safety and quality of life for the neighborhood and for the students to park in the parking lot as it was intended. Mr. Simek referenced a bond levy referendum in 2008 where the residents of Mendota Heights paid over $350,000 for the new parking lot, tennis courts, etc. page 12 He continued by stating that there was a count that indicated 107 open parking spaces; the parking can be sliced and diced in any way, but it comes down to a matter of allocation. He gave credit to the residents on High Ridge; however, they do not live as close to Warrior as he does (50 feet away). All they are asking is that they be on parity with the neighborhood in West St. Paul, which has a similar parking ban. An important question that the Council needs to consider — is it the role of the City to provide parking to businesses and institutions, or is it the role of the businesses and institutions to provide parking for their customers and students. Mr. Simek cited the City Code Sec 12-1D-16, under off-street parking and loading spaces. "A. Purpose: Regulation of off street parking and loading spaces in this chapter is to alleviate or prevent congestion of the public right of way and to promote the safety and general welfare of the public by establishing minimum requirements for off street parking, ... " He empathizes with the students, but their goal is to get the cars into the parking lots, creating a safer environment for the neighborhood and for the students. Mr. Simek also noted that the District is putting the problem on the City. He questioned why one special interest user should be able to monopolize the parking on Warrior Drive five days a week, nine months of the year. Mr. Simek believes that District 197 and the City have an obligation of safety to the students and neighbors. Mr. Simek closed with a recent article from the Pioneer Press from a neighboring city's council meeting where a resident stated on a matter before the council, 'the fundamental responsibility of the government is to provide for the public health, safety, and general welfare of its' citizens'. He asked that the City Council provide for the public health, safety, and general welfare of the neighborhood and the students who attend the school. Dr. Frank Pilney, 1867 Warrior Drive, stated there are six or seven houses at the end of Warrior Drive where residents cannot park due to the spaces being occupied by students. If his family has guests there is nowhere for them to park. He has observed, at 2:30 p.m., cars whipping out of the parking lot. He also stated that he has picked up trash. Mr. Kevin Bormann, 1875 Warrior Drive, stated he objects to the assertion that the litter on the street was not associated with the students and he agreed with Dr. Pilney's comments about the litter belonging to the students. It is not a matter of the cars being unsightly; it is what they leave behind. Mr. Bormann believes that the school has a problem and they have shifted that problem to the people on Warrior Drive. He understands that the number of residents who are impacted by this situation are largely outnumbered by the number of parents whose kids park along Warrior Drive; however, if they were to experience some of the negative aspects of having the students park across the street, they would probably have similar feelings of the residents who live on Warrior Drive. Mr. Joseph Lapean's mother lives at 620 Callahan Place and they moved there 50 years ago — before the school was built. When the school was built all of the properties along Warrior Drive belonged to Henry Sibley High School. He noted that only half of the block was notified on Callahan Place. As Henry Sibley sold off the lots, they came through his parents' property and obtained an easement for storm sewer. All of the properties along Warrior Drive were built after Henry Sibley. Since that time, curb and gutter has been installed along Callahan Court and if cars are parked on both sides of the street, page 13 the garbage trucks have a hard time squeezing through. A solution to student parking — either another parking lot or even a parking ramp — needs to happen. It is going to continue to be a problem as the school grows if something is not done now. Mr. Joe Lawder, 1851 Warrior Drive, got involved in these issues because of the NURT trail. The trail and the parking issues come together because the parking is going to be pushed further down Warrior. If no ban is put in place he foresees the other lot being used more. Mr. Lawder claimed that it appears to be an equal distance from the free parking lot to the school as it would be from the open areas on Warrior once the NURT trail goes in. Mr. Lawder continued by suggesting a pool of money be created to improve and enlarge the free lot. Mr. Lawder is not directly affected by the parking on Warrior, however, he does worry about what is going to happen once the trail goes in. If this is at a decision point, the City needs to take into consideration what is best for the area overall. If this is not at a decision point, a period of study is necessary to see how the NURT trail would affect the parking situation in the fall. Ms. Gail Wildenauer, 1859 Warrior Drive, stated that they built their home 23 years ago. She is not against the students parking along Warrior Drive; however, she is for working together as a community. There can be problems anytime a resident lives by a school, but they have not had a lot of problems. Mr. Larry Chlebeck, 613 High Ridge Circle, has lived in the neighborhood for 25 years. He agreed with the previous comment that everyone needs to work together and figure this out with the school district and the Council. His family has always gotten along with them and has had no issues. He suggested that Mendota Heights get with West St. Paul and figure this out as the school population is going to continue to grow. Mr. Chlebeck stated he believes it is the responsibility of the School District to provide parking for their students, not the City. Mr. Kevin Gillen, 574 Sibley Court, stated that the east side of his property is right along Warrior and he expressed his desire to go on record that he has no issue with the students parking along the side of the street. He did agree that the speed of some of the vehicles can get a little high; however, he believes there is a solution here. He suggested that the police monitor the area for the first couple of weeks of the school year. He continued by stating that if parking along Warrior Drive was limited, it would also limit parking in front of his home. He would not want to see the parking in front of his home limited during the day. Mr. Joseph Lapean returned to the podium and clarified that he is not happy about the proposal. He also asked for confirmation that the school district is trying to get the football field moved over to Henry Sibley and if so, where are they contemplating putting it. Chair Spurr replied that there has been a fairly active advocate group promoting the idea. They came to the school board fairly close to the time when they needed to firm up their levy; and at that time the school board said no. They have spent two years trying to develop these proposals and wished to wait until after the levy question. As for location, the concept has not been very well developed; however, the conversation has tended to be geographically focusing on the south end of the property along Highway 110. page 14 Chair Spurr continued by stating that this is inevitable and if there is an effort to develop a sports facility on the Sibley campus, parking is going to have to be a part of the equation. Councilmember Povolny pointed out that if there is a change to the property, a new parking lot would need to be considered to meet code requirements. Mr. Jim Pirkl, 1825 Warrior Drive, stated that he has not seen the problem that seems to exist and is against banning parking along Warrior. He has lived in his home for 17 years and prior to that he lived on Callahan. Currently, five or six students from the neighborhood walk down his driveway, across his neighbor's driveway, and onto Callahan because it's closer for them to get to their homes. If more traffic is pushed onto Callahan and the other streets, he is going to have a stream of students going through his yard. Also, he believes that if the parking is pushed onto the side streets the City would need to plow them twice because the cars are going to be there all day long. Mr. Kent Mogler returned to the podium to add a point of history about losing parking. When he moved into his home, parking on both sides of Warrior Drive was allowed. Warrior Drive is an extremely wide street and if all parking was banned — two cars go down the road together very fast now. At one time the street had parking for the students on both sides. Parking capacity could easily be increased by the same amount as is being eliminated by NURT; although he is not proposing that. Ms. Laurie Tostrud, 1490 Somerset Court, is a parent of a Henry Sibley student. She stated that what she is hearing is that there is not too much of a problem on Warrior Drive. It has been heard that there has not been a lot of safety issues, there are U-turns that happen that are perfectly legal, and there have been no problems. This seems to have become a city versus school issue and she did not understand why. Ms. Tostrud asked for confirmation that the proposed ban is just during school hours, and this seems to be targeted at just Henry Sibley students. Warrior Drive is just as busy after school during the Mendota Heights Athletic Association games and others. She also addressed the suggestion of expanding the free parking lot by claiming that the school would have to give up field space for all athletic events; Sibley's and the community's. She encouraged the Council to not ban parking and to work with Henry Sibley and the entire community. Mr. Stuart Simek returned to explain that the airport was here before the residents moved in and there is an Airports Relations Committee where these types of issues are discussed and worked through; this is a similar situation. There needs to be a dialogue with the school and work through some of these issues. He also pointed out that neighboring suburban high schools do not allow student parking to spill into the adjoining neighborhoods. Ms. Deb Paradise, 585 High Ridge Circle, said that her only access is onto Warrior Drive and she is also a runner. She explained that anyone who says there are not a lot of U-turns and that it is safe during the day is mistaken. The feeling in the evenings and weekends with activities is different. The times before school and after school are really hectic and more intense. Mr. Andy Mills, a parent of two students at Henry Sibley, summarized what he was hearing by saying that there are three serious issues that the local residents are bringing up: • Speeding out of the high school page 15 • Litter • U-turns The number of cars in the Sibley parking lots dwarfs the number of cars on Warrior Drive. The majority of the cars coming out of the parking lot and down Warrior Drive are the ones speeding. Banning parking on Warrior Drive is not going to help that issue. That is a traffic issue that the police are going to need to deal with it. In regards to litter, his observation is that the kids coming out of school just want to get home; they are not littering. The littering comes from the after school activities, the activities in the fields, people coming to watch these activities, and parking for those activities is not what is being banned. As for the U-turns, he has seen these occur and has seen an accident during one — but these can be dealt with by putting up a one-way sign during school hours. Parking does not need to be banned to fix the issues as there are much simpler methods available. Council Deliberations Mayor Krebsbach stated that this is not a public hearing. The Council will take into consideration all of the materials they have and everything they have heard. The Council has the option of making a decision or considering this as a review. Mayor Krebsbach also noted one piece of new information and that was that the property along Warrior Drive where the homes are was sold by the school district for housing. There was a benefit to the school district to accrue that income from the sale of those properties. Mayor Krebsbach asked if there were any additional questions from Councilmembers. There being none, she asked for a recommendation from the Council. Councilmember Petschel said she is not against Henry Sibley High School. Councilmembers are elected by the residents of Mendota Heights and there were a group of residents that came to them with a problem; the Council was obligated to address it. Some of her frustrations came from the fact that the Council reached out to the school district in an attempt to work together; however, initially they did not receive much of a response. To be a good problem solver, a person needs to listen to everybody and solutions usually suggest themselves. The piece that was missing was getting everyone to the table. There were two speakers that had an impact on Councilmember Petschel; Mr. Kevin Ryan and Ms. Grace Brooks. Mr. Ryan's comments all but echoed her own. There are things that could be done with Warrior Drive (i.e. adjusting the direction of traffic flow, eliminating U-turns) and she feels very badly about anyone who cannot afford to park in the parking lot. She would like to see everybody be able to park in the lot. She expressed her appreciation to Chair Spurr for being in attendance. It has become apparent to her that enrollment is going up. So between the NURT, increasing enrollment, and the lack of enough parking spaces currently, there is a looming issue. She believes in being proactive rather than reactive. page 16 Ms. Brooks' point that Councilmember Petschel thought was really important was communication. The students have not heard about this at assembly or elsewhere. Part of the solution has to be better communication between the City, the school board, the school, and the students. Councilmember Petschel suggested a working group that would involve City staff and the school board at the very least — and possibly effected residents — to take a closer look at the situation. Having identified this looming problem with more drivers, increased enrollment, hardship, residents' concerns, and the possible addition of a football field, she would like to see a task force come together and see if there are ways to resolve this issue. Councilmember Povolny also agreed that the Council should take a step back and have the groups meet to try to resolve the issue. Something needs to be done but more discussion needs to occur before a decision is made. Councilmember Duggan reminded everyone of the "Proud Past — Bold Future" campaign. Mendota Heights has outstanding schools in one of the finest cities in Minnesota. The reason for this is because of the residents working with each other and working with the City. At this point, Mayor Krebsbach asked for clarification that the school is in compliance to the code in regards to student parking. Engineer Mazzitello confirmed that the school is in compliance. Councilmember Duggan continued by stating that the school is in compliance with the code; but the school district is not in compliance with respect to encouragement or enforcement of parking in the school lots. Councilmember Duggan continued that the major problem is the number of parking spaces and asked whose responsibility is it to take care of that. According to the city's code, it is the school. They should provide parking within the school property, as do churches and businesses. Many residents have been heard from in that they do not want the overflow coming into their neighborhoods and on their streets. The argument as to what was first in an area is fraught with significant legal difficulties. Councilmember Duggan agreed with Councilmember Petschel in having an ad hoc committee; however, it needs some limits, direction, and timelines. He also stated that the school district needs to be bold enough to come forward, sit down with the City, and come up with a plan. They need to get advice from City staff, work with a member of the Planning Commission, maybe a Councilmember, and maybe representatives of the neighborhood, to ensure all are heard. Councilmember Duggan would support waiting for the NURT to be completed and come back late August or early September to restudy the issue at that time; with a timeline and a deadline of making a decision before the end of this year (2014). Councilmember Norton commented that he believes that some perceptions have changed with the more open dialogue with the school board. He also expressed his appreciation to Chair Spurr for speaking. There are valid concerns on everyone's part. The people who are interested in banning parking on Warrior Drive are concerned about the safety of everyone. page 17 He lives on Marie Avenue just outside of the notification area. He observed a Henry Sibley student who drove by at approximately 50 miles per hour; there is always going to be something like that. Everyone needs to try to provide for the best possible situation for the residents, the students, and everyone else. He originally felt that it was ridiculous for the school to be charging $200 a year for student parking at a public institution when there is ample space to provide for parking. That still remains his opinion; however, it has been pointed out that nearly every public school in the suburbs is requiring its students to pay for parking. With the projection of the enrollment increase, everyone agrees that there would be a potential parking problem in the future. However, it is not something that could be decided tonight — and should not be made tonight. Councilmember Norton moved to table Ordinance 462, Amending City Code to Prohibit Parking On City Streets Surrounding Henry Sibley High School. Councilmember Duggan seconded the motion. Mayor Krebsbach commended Mendota Heights for their deliberations, their time, and for sharing their ideas. She then asked Chair Spurr his thoughts on the suggestion of putting together a working committee. City Administrator Justin Miller commented that it is very clear that the City and the school district would work together in the coming weeks and he would be glad to work with the superintendent and the board chair and figure out the best way, so all sides are represented, including the residents who are most impacted. Other points that Mayor Krebsbach felt were important for the agenda of this group would be: • Discussing the hardship of not being able to pay for parking • Wait and see with NURT • Suggestion of no U-turn Councilmember Povolny asked that some sort of timeframe be added. Chair Spurr emphasized his comments from earlier regarding Economics 101. Mayor Krebsbach responded that the Council is not suggesting that parking be made free to everyone but that the discussion of hardship should be added to the committee's beginning working agenda. He agreed that the beginning working group should include staff and the school board; but that it should also — at some point — include the residents on Warrior Drive. After questioning City Attorney Tom Lehman, the motion stood as presented. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 Councilmember Petschel commented that careful attention should be given to not limiting the working committee to just the suggestions that have been made. There may be better or more creative ways to reallocate parking or solving these issues than what has been mentioned this evening. The working group should be free to explore these other, possibly better, solutions. page 18 After further discussion, direction was given to staff to create the working group with the above referenced agenda items to begin with; participants to be city staff and the school staff, and possibly the local residents; and with an end date of December 31, 2014 or sooner. The Council would be kept apprised of the progress and situation. COMMUNITY ANNOUNCEMENTS Assistant City Administrator Tamara Schutta made the following announcements: • The Village will start their free concert series on Wednesdays, 6:30 — 8:00 p.m. at Market Square.

Mayor Krebsbach asked that this item be put on a Council agenda. Councilmember Duggan also noted that he is getting questions regarding Fisherville. City Administrator Justin Miller explained that a financial advisory firm from Eagan has purchased the building and they are converting it to their offices. Councilmember Duggan congratulated all of the graduates from all of the schools and colleges. He wished them sober evenings on their particular graduating days. ADJOURN Councilmember Duggan moved to adjourn. Councilmember Povolny seconded the motion.

The regular meeting of the Mendota Heights Planning Commission was held on Tuesday, May The following Commissioners were present: Chair Litton Field, Jr., Commissioners Michael Noonan, Doug Hennes, Robin Hennesey, Mary Magnuson, and Ansis Viksnins Those absent: Commissioner Howard Roston. Others present were City Planner Nolan Wall, Public Works Director/City Engineer John Mazzitello, Consultant Planner Phil Carlson, and City Attorney Andrew Pratt. COMMISSIONER NOONAN MOVED, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER VIKSNINS, TO City Planner Nolan Wall explained that SAC Wireless has applied, on behalf AT&T and the Ridge South Condominium Association for a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for a wireless antenna facility and a variance for an accessory structure. Planner Wall shared an image of the proposed property and explained that the subject parcel is approximately 2.7 acres, contains a multi -family dwelling complex, is zoned R-3, and guided for high density residential use on the comprehensive plan. The applicant is proposing to construct a wireless antenna facility on the west side of the roof and an accessory structure south of the east parking lot. page 21 46 T -Mobile currently maintains an additional wireless antenna facility on the east side of the 47 building and an accessory structure in a similar location. 48 49 The proposed wireless antenna structure would consist of three antennas, six RRH units mounted 50 on a 10 -foot tall tower on top of a four foot, eight inch tall elevator penthouse that is on top of 51 the existing building. It would also include associated fiber cable trays. 52 53 Planner Wall then reviewed the purpose of the City Code pertaining to wireless antennas, towers, 54 and accessory structures being allowed by a CUP. He also reviewed the criteria that would need 55 to be met and evaluated for a CUP request for this type of facility; and he explained the need for 56 and requirements of the variance request for the accessory structure. 57 58 Staff recommended approval of this Conditional Use Permit and Variance request. 59 60 Commissioners asked questions regarding a possible location or stand-alone tower if this request 61 were to be denied, how the `non -economic consideration' criteria can be met given that the 62 condominium association is presumably being compensated, and if a variance had been approved 63 for the existing accessory structure. 64 65 Chair Field asked the applicant to come forward and address some of the questions asked by the 66 Commissioners and provide additional information, if any. 67 68 Chair Field opened the public hearing. 69 70 Seeing no one coming forward wishing to speak, Chair Field asked for a motion to close the 71 public hearing. 72 73 COMMISSIONER VIKSNINS MOVED, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER NOONAN, TO 74 CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. 75 76 AYES: 6 77 NAYS: 0 78 ABSENT: 1 79 80 COMMISSIONER VIKSNINS MOVED, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER HENNES TO 81 RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT REQUEST FOR 82 BUILDING -MOUNTED WIRELESS ANTENNA FACILITY AND VARIANCE REQUEST 83 FOR ACCESSORY STRUCTURE BASED ON THE FOLLOWING FINDINGS OF FACT 84 1. The proposed project is consistent with the conditional use permit requirements allowing 85 such facilities. 86 2. The proposed project will not negatively affect the public health, safety and general 87 welfare of the community. 88 3. Installing a new wireless antenna facility on an existing structure is a preferred means of 89 co -location. 90 4. The proposed accessory structure is necessary to securely contain the wireless antenna 91 facility's equipment. page 22 92 5. The proposed accessory structure meets the applicable setback and height requirements, 93 will be screened from the parking lot, ground -floor units, and surrounding properties and 94 be constructed to match the condominium building. 95 AND WITH THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS: 96 1. A building permit must be obtained prior to construction and installation of the wireless 97 antenna facility. 98 2. The applicant shall abide by all regulations in Title 12-1D-14 of the City Code, as 99 outlined in the Staff report. 100 3. The applicant shall enter into an agreement with the Ridge South Condominium 101 Association and provide a copy to the City. 102 4. The proposed wireless antenna structure is painted to match the existing roof -top 103 structure and the condominium building's brick exterior. 104 5. The proposed accessory structure is constructed with a brick exterior that matches the 105 condominium building. 106 107 AYES: 6 108 NAYS: 0 109 ABSENT: 1 110 111 Chair Field advised the City Council would consider this application at its June 3, 2014 meeting. 112 113 PLANNING CASE #2014-13 114 Ken and Mary Kay Noack VI 115 677 — 4th Avenue 116 Lot Split, Variance and Wetlands Permit 117 118 City Planner Nolan Wall stated that the applicant requested a lot split, a variance, and a wetlands 119 permit. The subject parcel is 1.19 acres and contains a single family dwelling with an attached 120 garage and a 1,064 square foot detached garage. In addition, there is an accessory structure that 121 is currently being used as a shed, which would be demolished in the future if any subdivision 122 requests were approved. The property is zoned R-1 and guided for low density residential use in 123 the comprehensive plan. If approved, the applicant intends to construct a new single family home 124 on the newly created parcel. 125 126 Planner Wall provided background by explaining that the subject parcel was formerly two 127 parcels consisting of two single family dwellings. The lots were combined to facilitate 128 demolition of that home on the original easterly lot in 2010. That was done so as to not create 129 nonconformity with an accessory structure present on a parcel without a principal building. It is 130 the applicant's desire to maintain the existing detached garage on the subject parcel, which 131 exceeds the newly adopted allowable square footage based on the lot size requirements. 132 Therefore a variance to remain on the subject parcel is required if a subdivision were to be 133 approved in the future. 134 135 In addition, the subject parcel is within 100 feet of a wetland or water resourced related area. If 136 approval for a subdivision and variance request is granted, a wetlands permit would be required page 23 137 for construction of a new dwelling on the parcel. Therefore, the applicant was encouraged to 138 submit the request as part of the application submittal for consideration. 139 Lot Split Request 140 Planner Wall shared an image of the parcel survey included in the application. The subdivision 141 would create two lots; the subject parcel would be reduced from 1.19 acres to 36,766 square feet. 142 The newly created parcel would be approximately 15,055 square feet. Both parcels would meet 143 the R-1 lot size and setback standards. 144 145 Planner Wall then shared the subdivision ordinance requirements. He also explained that, based 146 on the proposed subdivision application, it is staff's interpretation that the proposed shared lot 147 line is noncompliant with the code requirements. The applicant can seek input from the Planning 148 Commission on alternative lot configurations that would not create noncompliant side lot lines. 149 Staff included three applications for consideration and discussion with the applicant. 150 151 Planner Wall reviewed the details of the three alternative applications. He noted that although 152 not included as an option in the staff report, demolition of the existing detached garage is an 153 option that the applicant will not consider. 154 155 Staff recommended denial of the proposed subdivision and encouraged the applicant to pursue 156 other alternatives as outlined in the report or suggested by the Planning Commission. 157 158 Variance Request 159 Ordinance 454 was passed in January 2014 and that amended the code to allow detached and 160 attached private garages for residential properties in compliance with various size requirements. 161 The existing dwelling on the 1.19 acre parcel does contain a 1,064 square foot detached garage, 162 which is a legal nonconforming structure due to the subject parcel not exceeding 1.5 acres. The 163 code does allow for normal maintenance of a nonconforming structure without increasing the 164 nonconformity; however, as a result of this subdivision request the number and size of accessory 165 structures must conform to the corresponding zoning standards. Therefore, any subdivision of the 166 subject parcel pursued by the applicant would require a variance for the existing detached garage 167 to be located on either parcel. 168 169 Planner Wall reviewed the standards to be met for a variance request. 170 171 Based on the recommendation regarding the proposed subdivision, staff recommended that the 172 variance request be withdrawn and included as part of a future subdivision request. 173 174 Wetlands Permit 175 Planner Wall explained that if the proposed request or subsequent requests are permitted, a 176 wetlands permit would be required prior to construction of a new dwelling. Staff recommended 177 that the applicant package the application requests in order to avoid future planning approvals 178 that would be necessary. 179 180 The parcel is located approximately 60 feet from the wetland area and is also separated by Fourth 181 Avenue. Staff supports the wetlands permit request as included and in future applications 182 pertaining to a subdivision request. However, based on the staff recommendations regarding the page 24 183 proposed subdivision, staff recommended that this wetlands permit be withdrawn and included 184 as part of future subdivision request. 185 Mr. Ken Noack came forward to address the Commission and explained the purpose for his 186 request as being twofold: 187 1. To preserve some family history as his son and grandson would be the owners of the 188 newly created lot 189 2. To create another taxable property for Mendota Heights 190 191 Commissioners asked questions regarding the applicants' willingness to revise the lot lines and 192 therefore, have a narrower lot. Based on the applicants' confirmation the Commission then had a 193 discussion with staff on how to proceed. 194 195 Based on discussion and suggestions, the applicant requested this application be laid over to the 196 next Planning Commission meeting to allow him to work with staff to modify the request. 197 198 Chair Field opened the public hearing. 199 200 Ms. Elisha Lopez, 1505 Somerset Court, expressed her concern that the proposed new lot has 201 been vacant and it has a wonderful green space and appeal in the neighborhood. It sits in the 202 middle of the block and to put a house there would be awkward looking. She also expressed her 203 concern that, depending on where the new home would be located, it could be practically in her 204 backyard and would not align with the rest of the neighborhood on Fourth Avenue. 205 206 COMMISSIONER NOONAN MOVED, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER MAGNUSON 207 TO KEEP THE PUBLIC HEARING OPEN AND THAT THE APPLICATION BE LAID 208 OVER TO THE JUNE 24, 2014 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING. 209 210 AYES: 6 211 NAYS: 0 212 ABSENT: 1 213 214 PLANNING CASE #2014-14 215 Michael and Michelle Bader 216 1673 Delaware Avenue and Lot 3 of the Foxwood Plat 217 Concept Planned Unit Development Plan 218 219 Consultant Planner Phil Carlson of Stantec explained that this application is for a concept 220 planned unit development (PUD) review for the property at 1673 Delaware Avenue, a 10 -acre 221 parcel with an existing home; and Lot 3, a 2.5 -acre parcel located to the north. 222 223 Mr. Carlson continued by stating that the original application was for a PUD; however, City 224 Code appears to not consider this kind of case for a PUD. He then described the reasons for that 225 by giving the criteria for a PUD, of which this request does not meet. Discussion was had with 226 the City Attorney who agreed that this application would not fit the City's code as the code, 227 when developed, did not envision standard single family lots as a PUD. However, Stantec page 25 228 believes there are design issues or perhaps other issues that are pertinent and the applicant, Mr. 229 Bader has applied in good faith for the Concept Review. 230 Mr. Carlson asked that the Commission focus on the issues of how one would subdivide this land 231 in some reasonable way and what would be the design principles that may come to bear. 232 233 Mr. Carlson then shared images of the subject parcel in its existing condition and the two options 234 the applicants are proposing. 235 236 Commissioners asked questions regarding the options as presented, the limit to the length of a 237 cul-de-sac and when that was adopted, the right-of-way of Foxwood being 50 feet rather than the 238 standard 60 feet, and exactly what the Commission is being asked to do. 239 240 City Attorney Andrew Pratt described the role of the Planning Commission in this matter. He 241 explained that there is a helpful section in City Code that deals with Concept Reviews of PUD 242 [Section 12 -1K -6C] which describes this as a preliminary, non-binding action that would result 243 in discussion, potential recommendation to the City Council but not a requirement, or propose 244 ways to move forward to the applicant as this was a good -faith proposal. 245 246 Additional discussions and questions were had by the Commissioners. 247 248 Mr. Michael Bader came forward to address the Commission and to answer questions. He stated 249 his intention in purchasing the Foxwood lot was to extend the cul-de-sac to access his property 250 and summarized his previous requests, including why he applied for a Concept PUD Plan. He 251 further stated his intentions to discuss development options with surrounding property owners 252 and his preference to extend the cul-de-sac from Wentworth Avenue and build on the Foxwood 253 lot in the future. 254 255 Chair Field opened the public hearing. 256 257 Ms. Lisa Gray, 540 Wentworth sent a representative as she was unable to attend. Her 258 representative read a brief statement referencing her past expressed concerns and noted that the 259 current proposals presented do not address her concerns or the concerns of other residents in the 260 area. 261 262 Mr. Tim Aune, 554 Foxwood Lane, referenced a letter he sent to the Commission previously and 263 made himself available to answer any questions regarding his objections. 264 265 Mr. Jim Kolar, 1695 Delaware Avenue, voiced his concerns and objections to the proposed 266 plans. He further recommended the City consider developing a master plan for development of 267 the remaining large -acre lots in the area in question. He also requested the City consider 268 preserving access to his property in any future subdivision surrounding his property. 269 270 City Attorney Andrew Pratt reiterated for the record that the intent this evening was to gather 271 data and to have discussions regarding the various options and plans for the property; this was a 272 fact gathering situation and some of the facts need to be verified, proposals would need to come page 26 273 to staff, there is nothing that the Commission is being held to, and no recommendations to be 274 passed on to City Council. 275 276 COMMISSIONER VIKSNINS MOVED, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER MAGNUSON, 277 TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. 278 279 AYES: 6 280 NAYS: 0 281 ABSENT: 1 282 283 Chair Field expressed his desire that the Commission consider forwarding the summary of this 284 hearing to the City Council for their consideration in a similar manner as to the discussions this 285 evening. 286 287 Discussion of Public Hearing Guidelines 288 289 Planner Wall presented the background and referenced previous discussions on this topic. Based 290 on those discussions at previous Commission meetings, the following public hearing guidelines 291 are proposed: 292 1. Comments shall be limited to the proposed plan or amendment 293 2. A reasonable attempt shall be made to limit comments to no longer than 3 minutes 294 3. Comments shall not be repetitious until everyone else wishing to provide comments has 295 testified 296 4. The applicant shall be allowed to speak last to address any comments 297 5. The Chair can amend the procedures if necessary 298 299 If the guidelines are approved by the Commission, Staff would recommend the attached 300 statement be read by the Chair prior to opening the first public hearing of the evening and would 301 apply to all of the public hearings of the evening, if any. 302 303 Commissioner Noonan suggested that item one be changed to read "Comments shall be limited 304 to the application at hand" or "... matter before the Commission" so as to not limit it to a plan or 305 amendment. 306 307 He also noted that 3 minutes may not be long enough for a resident to give proper consideration 308 to a complicated matter or application with a great deal of complexity.

Maczko, Fire Chief SUBJECT: Re -keying of Knox Box Key Boxes BACKGROUND: page 28 5c. The City of Mendota Heights Fire Department has been using the Knox Box lock box system since 1985 without issue. Due to circumstances outside our control, we now need to replace the locks citywide to ensure proper access to commercial, industrial, and commercial buildings for our fire department personnel. Knox Companies has offered to provide the latest lock technology they have available for their cost of $23.00/unit. We would then propose to use firefighters at their hourly rate to install the cores as quickly as possible. We have looked at other options and this appears to be the best available course of action at this time. BUDGET IMPACT: The cost of re -securing our system is estimated as follows: Total Material Cost: Lock Cores from Knox Companies Master Keys from Knox Companies Shipping & Handling Installation: Estimated 65 hours x $21.09 255 units x $23.00 =$5,865.00 10 keys x $0.00 =$ 0.00 =$ 80.00 Total - Knox Companies $5,945.00 $1,370.85 This is an expense that was not anticipated and therefore is unbudgeted. Staff recommends paying for this expense out of the fire department budget with the understanding that it may result in a slight overspending of the budget at the end of the year. page 29 RECONIlVIENDATION: Staff recommends the city council approve the purchase and replacement of the lock cores for the cost of supplies of $5,945.00 and an estimated cost for installation of $1,370.85. This action requires a majority vote of the city council. page 30 5d. 11'1 Victoria Curve 1 Menccik.t•y:; , .. 551.45r~1 SO it e J 651.1M940 fax wv w.mendota•heights.com CITY OF MENDOTA HE IOHTE DATE: June 3, 2014 TO: Mayor, City Council and City Administrator FROM: Tamara Schutta, Assistant to the City Administrator/HR Coordinator SUBJECT: Personnel Action Item Item 1: Authorize Appointment of Public Works Superintendent At a recent meeting, the City Council authorized staff to begin the internal promotional process to fill the Public Works Superintendent position. City Administrator Justin Miller, Public Works Director/City Engineer John Mazzitello, City of West St. Paul's Public Works & Parks Director Matt Saam and I interviewed Parks Lead Terry Blum for the PW Superintendent Position. It is our pleasure to recommend to you that the city appoint Terry Blum as the PW Superintendent. Mr. Blum has over 30 year years of experience and successful performance with the Mendota Heights Public Works Department. Mr. Blum has extensive knowledge of the Public Works operations. His experience includes overseeing repair/maintenance schedules for the Mendota Heights parks and supervising staff to ensure projects are completed. City staff recommends that city council approve the appointment of Terry Blum as the PW Superintendent effective Wednesday, June 4, 2014 with wages set at Grade 34, Step B of the 2014 Employee Position/Pay Classification Plan. The 2014 rate for Grade 34, Step B is $76,336 annually. BUDGET As noted above. RECONIlVIENDATION Staff recommends that the Mendota Heights City Council approve the appointment of Terry Blum as the Public Works Superintendent effective Wednesday, June 4, 2014. irwoomm"" CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS DATE: June 3, 2014 TO: Mayor, City Council, and City Administrator FROM: Ryan Ruzek, PE, Assistant City Engineer Almin Ramic, EIT, Civil Engineer page 31 1101 Victoria Curve 1 Mendota He,y 651.452.1850 phone 1 651.452. www.mendota-heights.com SUBJECT: Accept Bids and Award Contract for Victoria Road & Rolling Green Neighborhood Improvements BACKGROUND The feasibility report for the Victoria Road & Rolling Green Neighborhood Improvements was accepted by the Mendota Heights City Council on September 17, 2013. This project includes reconstructing the rural section of Victoria Road from Marie Avenue to Caren Road. This project also includes rehabilitating the urban sections of Walsh Lane (from Marie Avenue to 150' south of Stratford Road), Stratford Road, Oxford Court, Windwood Court, Rolling Green Curve, and Coventry Court. Council ordered the Victoria Road & Rolling Green Neighborhood Improvements at their November 19, 2013 meeting, and directed staff to prepare plans and specifications for this street reconstruction project. Council approved the plans and specifications at their May 6, 2014 meeting. Two bids (see below) were received and opened on Wednesday, May 28, 2014, at 10:00 a.m. for the Victoria Road & Rolling Green Neighborhood Improvements. NAME OF BIDDER McNamara Contracting, Inc. Bituminous Roadways, Inc. AMOUNT OF BID $1,819,014.30 $2,462,403.65 McNamara Contracting, Inc. submitted the lowest responsible bid of $1,819,014.30. Their bid was less than the Engineer's Estimate of $1,993,050.75. McNamara Contracting, Inc. is a contractor with many years of experience with an office in Rosemount, Minnesota and has completed projects in Mendota Heights in the past and Staff recommends them for this contract. The substantial completion date for the project is September 27, 2014. I expect that McNamara Contracting, Inc., serving in the capacity of General Contractor, is capable of meeting the completion dates and installing the proposed improvements in accordance with the plans and specifications given their experience and the amount of equipment and manpower they have at their disposal. page 32 Staff will mail out a general notice to the residents about the project after council awards the contract, including information regarding the construction schedule. Project Schedule A proposed schedule for the remainder of this project is shown below: Item: Date: Award Contract June 3, 2014 Begin Construction June/July 2014 Complete Construction Fall 2014 Assessment Hearing October 2014 Final Wear Course of Bituminous Pavement October 2014 Limited Use Permit Mendota Heights has trails that are located within Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) owned right-of-way which are proposed to be rehabilitated with the project. MnDOT is requiring the city to execute Limited Use Permit for these small trail sections. In order to begin the process of executing a Limited Use Permit, MnDOT requires Council to pass a Resolution indicating the City's willingness to enter into a Limited Use Permit Agreement. The attached Resolutions would authorize staff to enter into a Limited Use Permit with MnDOT on behalf of the City. When the final Limited Use Permit is ready, thorough review by the City Attorney will take place prior to staff approval of the permit. Preventative Maintenance The proposed project also includes preventative maintenance to adjacent streets in the Tilson Highland Heights, which consists of crack sealing and seal coating. The City of Mendota Heights has a Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) administered by the City of Burnsville, Although the JPA is written for a number of services, the City of Mendota Heights only utilizes limited services provided by the JPA (Crack Sealing and Seal Coating/Chip Seal). These services are delivered at a comparable or reduced unit cost to bid prices the City could get on their own, and the administrative fees paid are slightly more economical than if the services were administered by in-house staff. Staff proposes having the crack sealing and seal coating completed under the JPA. The total estimated cost of the crack sealing and seal coating is $100,000. BUDGET IMPACT The Victoria Road & Rolling Green Neighborhood Improvements are proposed to be financed by Special Assessments, Municipal Bonds, Municipal State Aid, and Utility Funds. Total Project costs match those as ordered by City Council at their November 19, 2014 meeting with an estimated bond debt of $850,000. page 33 RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the council accept the bids and award the construction contract to McNamara Contracting, Inc. for their bid in the amount of $1,819,014.30. If city council wishes to implement the staff recommendation, pass a motion adopting A RESOLUTION ACCEPTING BIDS AND AWARDING CONTRACT FOR THE VICTORIA ROAD & ROLLING GREEN NEIGHBORHOOD IMPROVEMENTS (PROJECT #201308) and RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING A LIMITED USE PERMIT WITH THE MINNESOTA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION FOR A PEDESTRIAN TRAIL IN THE RIGHT-OF-WAY OF INTERSTATE 494 and RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING A LIMITED USE PERMIT WITH THE MINNESOTA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION FOR A PEDESTRIAN TRAIL IN THE RIGHT-OF-WAY OF TRUNK HIGHWAY 13. This action requires a simple majority vote.

Mazzitello, PE, PMP, MBA Public Works Director/City Engineer 5i. SUBJECT: Purchase of a New Pickup Truck for Public Works (Parks Division) BACKGROUND Public Works needs to purchase a new pickup truck to replace a 2005 pickup with plow and lift gate. On May 9th, the 3/4 -ton truck operated by the Parks Maintenance Division blew its engine, and has been determined too costly to repair. There are three vehicles in Public Works that are prioritized for replacement, and this truck is one of them. Staff proposed replacement of this truck in the 2014 budget workshop session (Parks Department), and estimated the cost to be $37,500. The quotes received to replace the truck are (prices listed are dealer price. Tax, license, and trade in value not calculated): State Contract (2015 model) - $36,200 Inver Grove Ford (unsold 2014 model) - $36,218 In order to save money on the purchase, Public Works staff will re -use the plow and lift gate currently on the 2005 truck, and re -install them on the new vehicle. Inver Grove Ford has a vehicle that can be delivered within 2 weeks. The State contract order would take 10-12 weeks for delivery. BUDGET IMPACT While this purchase was not included in the levy supported portion of the 2014 budget, it was identified as a purchase that would be made out of fund balance when needed. The total price of the truck from Inver Grove Ford is $36,218 plus taxes and license fees and less trade-in value. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the City Council authorize a purchase order to be made to Inver Grove Ford for $36,218.00 plus tax and license fees. This is to expedite delivery of a new vehicle, and to avoid up to a three-month waiting period. Approval of this action requires a majority vote of the city council. page 50 1101 Victoria Curve 1 Mendota He,g 7a • 651.452.1850 phone 1 651.452. yv� www.mendota-heights.com IrW1111111.1.1 CITY OF I - ILI MENDOTA HEIGHTS DATE: June 3, 2014 TO: Mayor, City Council and City Administrator FROM: Nolan Wall, AICP Planner SUBJECT: Resolution Approving a Conditional Use Permit and Variance to Construct a Wireless Antenna Facility and Accessory Structure BACKGROUND The applicant, on behalf of AT&T and the Ridge South Condominium Association, is requesting a conditional use permit and variance to construct a building -mounted wireless antenna facility and accessory structure at 1860 Eagle Ridge Drive. The Code allows wireless antenna facilities, including accessory structures, by conditional use permit in the R-3 zoning district. The applicant has demonstrated compliance with the specific evaluation criteria and is required to comply with the remaining standards as part of the building permit application process. In addition, properties less than four acres within residential districts are limited to one accessory structure not to exceed 144 square feet. Since the property already contains an accessory structure for an existing wireless antenna facility, a variance from the number and size standards is required. The proposed accessory structure meets the applicable setback and height standards and is recommended to be constructed with a brick exterior to match the condominium building and screened from the ground -floor units by additional landscaping. The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing at the May 27 meeting. There were no public comments. BUDGET IMPACT N/A RECOMMENDATION The Planning Commission recommended approval of the conditional use permit and variance request, with conditions, as described in Planning Case 2014-16. If the City Council desires to implement the recommendation, pass a motion adopting RESOLUTION 2014-30 APPROVING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AND VARIANCE FOR A WIRELESS ANTENNA FACILITY AND ACCESSORY STRUCTURE. This matter requires a simple majority vote. page 51 CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS DAKOTA COUNTY, MINNESOTA RESOLUTION 2014-30 RESOLUTION APPROVING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AND VARIANCE FOR A WIRELESS ANTENNA FACILITY AND ACCESSORY STRUCTURE WHEREAS, SAC Wireless, on behalf of AT&T and the Ridge South Condominium Association, has applied for a conditional use permit and variance to construct a building -mounted wireless antenna facility and accessory structure at 1860 Eagle Ridge Drive (EAGLE RIDGE PLAT 2, LOT 1, BLOCK 1) as proposed in Planning Case 2014-16; and WHEREAS, the Mendota Heights Planning Commission held a public hearing on this matter at their regular meeting May 27, 2014. NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Mendota Heights City Council that the conditional use permit and variance requests as proposed in Planning Case 2014-16 are hereby approved with the following conditions: 1. A building permit must be obtained prior to construction and installation of the wireless antenna facility. 2. The applicant shall abide by all regulations in Title 12-1D-14 of the City Code, as outlined in the Staff report. 3.

CITY COUNCIL CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS Sandra Krebsbach, Mayor ATTEST: Lorri Smith, City Clerk 0 DATE: TO: FROM: irows""' SUBJECT: CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS APPLICANT: PROPERTY ADDRESS: ZONING/GUIDED: ACTION DEADLINE: page 52 1101 Victoria Curve 1 Mendota Heights, MN 55118 651.452.1850 phone 1 651.452.8940 fax www.mendota-heights.com May 27, 2014 Planning Commission Nolan Wall, AICP Planner Planning Case 2014-16 Conditional Use Permit and Variance Request for Wireless Antenna Facility and Accessory Structure SAC Wireless/Ridge South Condominium Association 1860 Eagle Ridge Drive R-3 Multiple Family Residential/HR High Density Residential July 11, 2014 DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST The applicant is seeking a conditional use permit and variance to construct a building -mounted wireless antenna facility and accessory structure. Title 12-1D-4 of the Code requires conditional use permit approval for wireless antennas and accessory structures. Title 12-1D-3(C)(2)(a)(2) of the Code limits residential properties of less than four acres to one accessory structure up to 144 square feet. BACKGROUND The subject parcel is approximately 2.7 acres and contains a multi -family residential condominium building. The parcel is zoned R-3 Multiple Family Residential and guided for high density residential development. The applicant is proposing a 15 -foot tall building -mounted wireless antenna facility on the west side of the roof and a 228 -square foot accessory structure south of the east parking lot. T -Mobile currently maintains a building -mounted wireless antenna facility on the east side of the roof and accessory structure south of the parking lot, which was approved by conditional use permit as part of Planning Case 2006-33. ANALYSIS Title 12-1D-4 of the Code contains regulations regarding wireless antennas, towers, and accessory structures and requires a conditional use permit in all zoning districts. The purpose of the Code section is to protect the public health, safety and general welfare of the community while accommodating the communication needs of residents and businesses, and is necessary to: 1. Avoid potential damage to adjacent properties and personal injury from tower collapse through structural standards and setback requirements. 2. Protect the aesthetic qualities of the community by requiring tower and antenna equipment to be screened from properties within viewing distance of the site and to be designed in a manner to blend in with the surroundings and complement existing structures. page 53 3. Maximize the use of existing and approved freestanding antenna towers, buildings, and existing light poles for new wireless telecommunication antennas. 4. Minimize the number of freestanding antenna towers needed to serve the community by utilizing collocation. 5. Facilitate the provision of wireless telecommunication services to the residents and businesses of the city. The Code section also contains the following specific evaluation criteria for a conditional use permit application. Wireless Antenna Facility The proposed wireless antenna structure consists of three antennas with six RRH units mounted to 1 0 -foot tall tower on top of a 4'-8" foot tall elevator penthouse, including associated fiber cable trays. The following Code standards apply to the proposed project: Building Mounted Antennas: 1. Permitted Buildings: Antennas may only be mounted on institutional buildings (churches, schools, businesses, etc.) or multiple family dwellings two (2) stories or higher. Wireless telecommunications antennas are not permitted on attached or detached single-family homes or townhome dwellings. The proposed location is on top of a three-story multi -family residential dwelling structure. 2. Flush Mounting; Color: a. Building mounted antennas must be flush mounted to the sides of the building and painted the color of the building exterior unless the applicant can demonstrate to the council that protrusion above the roofline is necessary for communication effectiveness. Response from the applicant: The foliage (trees) is taller than the building so it's imperative to get above that obstacle. It's a short building on high ground, so it requires us to get a little higher to get over some of the trees and to compensate for the already short RAD Center. Overall, 40 feet is just enough to get over the trees with no excess height. b. In no case shall building mounted antennas or any attachment thereto be allowed to protrude more than fifteen feet (15) above the roofline of the building. The proposed wireless antenna structure will extend 15 feet above the roofline of the building and will be approximately 43 feet above ground. 3. Agreement To Mount On City Property: If both the applicant and the city consent to mounting the antennas on the city's water tower or other municipal building, a developer's agreement may be necessary at the discretion of the city in addition to a conditional use permit. Not applicable. Aesthetics: 1. Design: All freestanding antenna towers shall be of a monopole type design. The use of guyed towers is prohibited. Not applicable. page 54 2. Color: a. Those portions of all freestanding antenna towers and all antennas which protrude into the air shall be painted eggshell. The applicant is proposing to paint the proposed wireless antenna structure eggshell white, in compliance with the Code requirements. Staff recommends the applicant paint the proposed structure the same color as the existing roof -top structure, which is a dark brown that matches the brick of the condominium building (see attached photos). b. Those portions of all antennas that are flush mounted to the sides of buildings shall be painted to match the exterior of the building. The proposed wireless antenna structure is not flush -mounted. 3. Screening: All accessory buildings to all freestanding towers shall be screened from public view by a landscape plan according to the landscape standards of the appropriate zone and as described in subsection 12 -1D -13-2D1 of this article subject to council review. The proposed accessory structure will be located four feet west of the existing T -Mobile accessory structure, south of the east parking lot (see Sheet C-2). The area contains a mix of existing coniferous and shrub plantings that provide screening from the parking lot and ground -floor units. The applicant is proposing to plant three five-foot tall blue spruce evergreens to provide additional screening from the parking lot and building. Staff recommends that the applicant install additional plantings to completely screen the proposed accessory structure from the ground -floor condominium units. 4. Advertising: Advertising of any kind shall not be permitted on any freestanding antenna tower, antenna, or accessory structure. No advertising is proposed for the wireless antenna facility. 5. Lighting: Artificial lighting of any kind shall not be permitted on any freestanding antenna tower, antenna, or accessory structure unless such lighting is required by the FCC, the FAA, or another federal or state regulatory body. If such a requirement exists, only the minimum amount of lighting required shall be allowed. No lighting is proposed for the wireless antenna facility. 6. Prohibitions: Structures, functions, uses or activities that are not found by the city to be specifically necessary for the proper functioning of the antennas shall be prohibited on any antenna or tower without express permission from the city unless the city grants a waiver to this requirement. The applicant is required to comply with this requirement. Safety: 1. Report Of Compliance: For a freestanding antenna tower, the applicant must provide a report from a licensed qualified professional structural engineer certifying that the tower will meet or exceed current EIA/TIA-222-E standards including, but not limited to, standards for withstanding meteorological conditions such as high winds and radial ice. The applicant has submitted a structural analysis report that will be reviewed by a City -contracted structural engineer, at the applicant's cost, to verify compliance with the applicable standards as part of the building permit application. page 55 2. Compliance With Building And Electrical Codes: All antennas, freestanding antenna towers, and accessory structures shall conform to all building and electrical codes. Compliance with building and electrical codes will be reviewed as part of the building permit application. 3. Fencing: The applicant may be required by the council to erect a security fence around any freestanding antenna. No fencing is proposed for the wireless antenna facility. Accessory Structures For Antennas: 1. Location And General Requirements: Accessory buildings to antennas or freestanding antenna towers must lie completely within all applicable setbacks from all property lines and must otherwise conform to all requirements for accessory buildings within the description of the specific zone. Title 12 -1D -3(B) and (C) of the Code contain the following accessory structure standards for all residential districts: As shown in the table above, the proposed accessory structure meets the applicable setback and height requirements.

Not applicable. 11. Prohibitions: Use of mobile cell/PCS sites or COWs (cell sites on wheels), or any other temporary antenna apparatus is strictly prohibited except in the case of emergency equipment used for public safety purposes for a limited time during or in the immediate aftermath of a natural disaster or other emergency. (Ord. 429, 8-3-2010) The applicant is required to comply with this regulation. Variance Request As noted, a variance from the number and size standards for an accessory structure in the R-3 District is required as part of the proposed project. When considering a variance for the proposed accessory structure, the City is required to find that: 1. The request is in harmony with the general purposes and intent of the ordinance and comprehensive plan and the applicant proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner. The use of the property for an accessory structure as part of a building -mounted wireless antenna facility is permitted by conditional use permit in the R-3 Zoning District and there is another structure already located on the property. The applicant's desire to construct such a facility, including the accessory structure, is a reasonable use of the property and meets the purpose and intent of the ordinance and comprehensive plan. 2. The applicant establishes there are practical difficulties with complying with the ordinance due to circumstances that are unique to the property which are not created by the applicant or based on economic considerations. The use of the property for another accessory structure is necessary to house the proposed wireless antenna facility's equipment. Applying the existing number and size standards for accessory structures in the R-3 District creates a practical difficulty in locating another wireless antenna facility on the property. 3. The request will not alter the essential character of the locality. Another carrier currently maintains a building -mounted wireless antenna facility and accessory structure on the property. The proposed facility would be similar in height and requires an additional accessory structure located in the same general area as the existing accessory structure. The structures are located in the rear of the property and will be screened from the parking lot, ground -floor condominium units, and surrounding properties. The applicant is proposing to construct the accessory structure with similar colors to the condominium building. page 58 STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the conditional use permit to construct a building -mounted wireless antenna facility and variance request for construction of an accessory structure to exceed the number and size standards for the R-3 District, with the following conditions: 1. A building permit must be obtained prior to construction and installation of the wireless antenna facility. 2. The applicant shall abide by all regulations in Title 12-1D-14 of the City Code, as outlined in the Staff report. 3. The applicant shall enter into an agreement with the Ridge South Condominium Association and provide a copy to the City. 4. The proposed wireless antenna structure is painted to match the existing roof -top structure and the condominium building's brick exterior. 5. The proposed accessory structure is constructed with a brick exterior that matches the condominium building. ACTION REQUESTED Following a public hearing, the Planning Commission may consider the following actions: 1. Recommend approval of the conditional use permit to construct a building -mounted wireless antenna facility and the variance request for construction of an accessory structure to exceed the number and size standards, based on the attached findings of fact. OR 2. Recommend denial of the conditional use permit to construct a building -mounted wireless antenna facility and the variance request for construction of an accessory structure to exceed the number and size standards, based on the findings of fact that the proposed project does not meet the Code requirements and an additional site may be found that does not require a variance for the accessory structure.

Variance Checklist/Questionnaire (modified 12/6/2013) Page 1 of 3 page 68 Eagle Ridge - 12734889 - Variance Checklist Questionnaire 1. In your opinion, does the proposal put the property to use in a reasonable manner? Yes or No, Why or Why not. Yes. This building is currently being used as a Wireless Telecommunication Service Facility for another carrier. Installing new wireless telecommunication equipment on an existing structure is a preferred means of co -location in most jurisdictions. The variance is to allow the additional accessory structure on the same property at a slightly larger size. The size of the pre -fabricated equipment shelter is necessary to safely house the support equipment for the roof top antennas. 2. Please describe the circumstances unique to the property (not created by you). Under the existing City Code requirements, properties under 4 acres are limited to one accessory structure not to exceed 144 square feet. We are seeking relief from this requirement for permission to add an additional 228 square foot shelter adjacent to the existing equipment used by the existing carrier. 3. In your opinion, will the variance, if granted, fit with the character of the neighborhood? Yes or No, Why or Why not Yes. Under the existing City Code requirements, the proposed equipment shelter must be architecturally compatible with the principal structure. We are working closely with City Staff to ensure that this guideline will be met. - J 9S a a a •• ASF • qv r i P W ^ " jos ', o ° ° �y'iy ° -- tom\, '3 ds H in • as o a S u ZN. T. a 50 LLQ m O ac �:.

This helps avoid the possibility of licensed frequencies interfering with other. This is a standard convention in the telecom industry. AT&T Mobility acquires their licenses from the FCC, which entitles us to operate within an assigned frequency range. This helps avoid interference issues from other frequencies coming from CB radios, electronic appliances, pacemakers, fire and police equipment, as well as other cellular/pcs licensed carriers antennas. In the highly unlikely event that some type interference does occur, AT&T Mobility will cooperate with the provider experiencing interference, to help identify and correct, to the extent reasonably possible, the issues. In the event AT&T Mobility ceases operation of RF service at 1860 Eagle Ridge Drive, Mendota Heights, MN 55118 all antennas, unused free standing towers, and ancillary equipment will be removed within six (6) months.

They requested review of a Concept Plan for a Planned Unit Development to subdivide the land for additional single-family residential development. The purpose of a concept review is to provide the prospective developer with information and comments to assist in determining the viability of a proposed development. As noted in the Staff report, after acceptance of the application and further review, the proposed development options do not appear to qualify as a planned unit development based on the Code requirements. As a courtesy to the applicant, the Planning Commission conducted a public hearing and provided comments. The concept review process also allows the City Council an opportunity to provide comments. However, such action is not and is not intended to be binding on the City in any way, but simply advisory on a preliminary basis only. The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing at the May 27 meeting. Various residents abutting the proposed development area provided comments. BUDGET IMPACT N/A RECOMMENDATION Acknowledge and accept the staff report's recommendations and comments from the Planning Commission discussion concerning the proposed development options. No formal action is necessary. page 93 5 Stantec Item No. 2014-14 MEMORANDUM Date: May 27, 2014 To: Mendota Heights Planning Commission From: Phil Carlson, AICP, Consulting Planner RE: Planning Case 2014-14: Bader PUD, Concept Review Action Deadline: None (Preapplication conference) BACKGROUND Mike & Michelle Bader own approximately 12.5 acres of land on the east side of Mendota Heights on Delaware Avenue, just south of Wentworth Avenue. The property consists of their home on a 10 -acre parcel fronting Delaware Avenue, plus an adjacent 2.5 -acre lot that fronts Foxwood Lane. They are requesting review of a Concept Plan for a Planned Unit Development to subdivide the property into five or six lots: four or five new single family home lots, plus their existing home on a modified lot. All would be served with public infrastructure. The property is guided Rural Residential and zoned R -1A One Family Residential. Single family homes are permitted on lots with minimum width of 125 feet and a minimum 30,000 square feet lot area. The purpose of a Concept Review is for the prospective developer to gather information and comments on their proposal to help determine the viability of a proposed development. The Baders have requested a PUD concept review, but the City Code does not appear to allow a project like theirs to qualify as a PUD. The PUD section of the Code includes the following: 1) 12-1K-2 A.1: A PUD is defined as a project where some use would not otherwise be permitted in the zoning district — not the case here. 2) 12-1K-2 A.2: Defines a PUD as located in a residential district and the housing is proposed to be clustered — not the case here. page 94 3) 12-1K-3: PUDs are defined with four designations only, two of which are residential: High Density and Medium Density — neither is the case here. 4) 12-1K-5 B.1: This section refers to HR -PUD and MR -PUD, not low density like the R-1 or R - 1A districts. From the above, it appears the Bader project does not qualify under the Code to be processed as a PUD; the City Attorney concurs with this opinion. The appropriate avenue to pursue development here would be a standard plat, which could be applied for. Review and comment on the current project therefore will focus on the design issues and not on a PUD. HISTORY There is a long and interesting history to the development of this part of Mendota Heights and a number of proposals have been made over the years to further subdivide the property. Others are more familiar with the history and specific issues that have been discussed, including private covenants, preservation of trees, extension of utilities to serve the property, County permission to access to Delaware Avenue with a new driveway or street, etc. Our review here is only on the design concepts for this initial PUD review. KEY SITE FEATURES There are several key site features which affect almost any concept for subdividing the property: 1) Foxwood Lane is a cul-de-sac within a 50 -foot -wide public right-of-way, although the street itself is a private drive, per previous approvals. The width of the right-of-way is less than the City standard of 60 feet. Maximum length of a cul-de-sac allowed by the City's Subdivision Code is 500 feet. 2) There are slopes on the site of 20% and greater. 3) There is a small wetland in the middle of the property, due west of the Bader home, and larger wetlands on the far west edge of the property. 4) The site is heavily wooded. Exhibit 1 (attached) is labelled "Existing Conditions" but there is no mention of wooded areas or a tree survey. page 95 5) In addition to the Bader home, there are three other homes in close proximity to the subject property: Aune/Miller, Gray, and Chadima, all noted on Exhibit 1. All three appear to be about 20 feet or less from the Bader property line. PROPOSED CONCEPTS The Baders submitted two concepts for the design of the PUD, attached as Exhibits 7 and 8: 1) Exhibit 7 is the "Thru-Street Option", which extends a new public street off of Delaware Avenue east -west along the southern property line meeting a new north -south street which is an extension of Foxwood Lane. a. The plan notes the need for a retaining wall or grading easement on the adjacent property to the south in order to build the new east -west segment of street. b. The plan notes a retaining wall next to the small wetland to accommodate the new north -south street. c. Five new lots are created, all of which meet the R -1A minimum size and width standards. d. The Baders' existing driveway would be rerouted to connect with the new street, eliminating its direct access to Delaware Avenue. e. Five new lots are shown, all meeting R -1A minimum dimensions, plus a modified lot for the Bader home, which would take access off the new street instead of Delaware Avenue. 2) Exhibit 8 is the "Four Lot Option", which extends Foxwood Lane south into a longer cul- de-sac, for a total length of about 800 feet. a. The plan places the small wetland inside the bulb end of the new cul-de-sac. b. Four now lots are shown, plus a modified lot for the Bader home. DESIGN PRINCIPLES In order to design a reasonable subdivision of the property, staff recommends the following design principles be followed: 1) Design a new street compliant with City construction standards, not a long cul-de-sac. page 96 2) Keep all grading on the subject property. On the south side of the property, this means widening the street ROW further north where needed, while still maintaining a reasonable front setback to the existing Bader home. 3) Provide an access stub to the property to the south for potential future development. This access should be located about at the center of the south property line where the grades are less steep, south of the small wetland. 4) Respect at least a 40 -foot setback from any new street ROW to the existing homes: Bader and Gray. 5) Respect as much as practical the existing trees on the property. Without a tree survey it is difficult to know exactly how this might best be accomplished. Taken together, these principles would suggest a concept plan that might look like the graphic below.

Very truly yours, Mike and Michelle Bader Enclosures page 102 MICHAEL M. BADER MICHELLE K.BADER 1673 DELAWARE AVENUE MENDOTA HEIGHTS, MN 55118 (612) 865-1845 May 5, 2014 TO: The Mendota Heights City Council, Planning Commission and Staff Pursuant to Title 12, Article K of the City Code and the City's requirements for a Planned Unit Development, the following is submitted pursuant to 12-1 K-6, Introduction History Michelle and Mike Bader have resided in Mendota Heights for 25 years. Since 1998 our home has been 1673 Delaware where we raised our four children. Our children are now in their mid to late twenties and have, for the most part, left us. We have had considerable interest by other young families in purchasing our home and we are excited about downsizing and building a new, smaller home, on less than the 10 acres here at 1673 Delaware. The prospective buyers of our existing home are uniformly uninterested in maintaining 10 acres and prefer a 31/2 acre site encompassing our home and yard. In 2003 we purchased Lot 3 Foxwood with the expectation that we could gain access for the lots in our western property from Wentworth. Our subdivision plan was denied in the spring of 2003. At that time, the city required a variance because the proposed cul-de-sac exceeded 500 feet. Subsequently, a new city attorney agreed that requiring this variance would constitute spot zoning and agreed that a variance is not required for a cul-de-sac in excess of 500 feet. In 2010, we were told by city staff that to access our property from a cul-de-sac from Wentworth over the Foxwood right of way, would require a variance because the Foxwood right of way was approved - without a variance - for a fifty foot right of way and the city code requires 60 feet. We applied for a variance in 2010 without submitting a development plan and our application was denied. We were encouraged by two Council members to consider a planned unit development. So, we are pleased to submit our concept plan for a planned unit development, It is our belief that this plan will allow for the infill of upper -end homes similar to those in Hidden Creek. Our plan is in keeping with similar surrounding home sites. Also, widening Foxwood and eliminating the private road on a public right of way, page 103 will enhance the value of our Foxwood neighbors as it will allow for a safe road, street parking, curbside trash removal, mail and newspaper delivery Finally, the proposed plan increases the size of Lot 2 Foxwood and saves the owners of Lots 1 and 2 more than $10,000 00 for pending street maintenance FOXWOOD Foxwood is a three -lot subdivision on 10 acres in Mendota Heights. Lot 1 is owned by Lon and Jennifer Lutz; Lot 2 by Tim Aune and Anne Miller; and Lot 3 by Mike and Michelle Bader. Lots 1 and 2 are improved with residences. Lot 3 is vacant.. Foxwood Lane serves as access for the three lots„ The Foxwood pavement is 20' wide and approximately 480 foot long with a cul de sac.. Ex 1 The Baders reside on a 10 -acre lot that abuts their Lot 3 to the south. Access to our home is from Delaware. Our home/yard occupies approximately 3 1/2 acres of our 10 acre parcel.. The western 7 acres is densely wooded. Ex. 1. Foxwood Lane is unique because it is a private road on a public right of way, perhaps the only one of its kind in the state.1 Because Foxwood is a private road, the Foxwood owners split the cost of road construction and maintenance, pursuant to the Operating Agreement. Ex. 2, p. 3 ¶3.2. The owners' right to construct and maintain Foxwood as a private road is explicitly conditioned on the City's permission to do so: Maintenance of Common Area. To the extent permitted by the City of Mendota Heights, the Road Area shall be maintained by the Committee in good, safe and usable condition. Id, p. 3, ¶ 3.2. 1In VanLANDSCHOOT V. City of Mendota Heights 336 N W 2d 503 (1983), the City of Mendota Heights successfully argued to the Supreme Court that the denial of a variance for a private road over a public right of way was warranted for concerns over the City's tort liability, maintenance and snow removal. The Supreme Court stated: From the evidence, the council could have rationally found the request to build a private driveway over a portion of the public right-of-way .would have made problems in connection with snowplowing and removal; and was fraught with problems of tort liability claims and maintenance, and therefore would raise safety and traffic condition problems. I d at p. 508-9. page 104 The Operating Agreement can only be amended by the unanimous consent of all three owners. I d., p. 9, 76.9. Regrettably, as the stewards of Foxwood, we have failed to construct and maintain Foxwood Lane road as required by the city code, the city council's conditions for approving the Foxwood Subdivision application, and our own Operating Agreements, specifically: SAFETY: The slope from Foxwood to its terminus with Wentworth exceeds 6%, as does the slope of the driveways to Lot 3 and Lot 2, Ex,. 3. This exceeds the slope requirement of City Code which is 6% (Chapter 11-3-3 §B.3.a.). All lot owners agreed that the slope to Wentworth was dangerous but a majority of the owners rejected a bid to soften the slope for $8,000.00 Ultimately, a lengthy and expensive arbitration occurred last November and ruled that the slope to Wentworth be corrected. According to Tim Aune, the slope to his house and the access to Lot 3 cannot be reduced because there isn't enough room, apparently without putting in retaining walls. After a spring snowfall in 2013 while inspecting Foxwood for potholes, I was unable to pass 3-4 cars parked on Foxwood in the cul-de-sac without driving (in my four wheel drive SUV) over the snow covered median. This past winter I have made numerous trips through Foxwood to observe the plowing. I never detected any salt/sand application and the two slopes remained ice/snow packed for most of the winter. On a Friday evening several days after a recent snowfall, I encountered a Lincoln Town Car stuck on the slope up from Lot 2 No salt/sand was applied on Foxwood. It has been my observation that the equipment used by our plowing company is not heavy enough to clear the snow down to the pavement and with this winter's snowfall the plow was unable to clear the snow the entire width of Foxwood due to the high snow banks. When cars were parked on Foxwood this winter, emergency vehicles could not access Lots 2 and 3. PARKING Because Foxwood is only 20 feet wide, parking is prohibited by both the city and the Operating Agreement2 2 On December 22, 1992, the Mendota Heights Planning Commission recommended approval of the Foxwood Plat (then known as Somerset Place) upon the following conditions: page 105 Parking was supposed to be limited to parking pads shown on Ex.. 6.. We did not install the pads when Foxwood was originally paved and have yet to find a solution for parking. If the pads are installed as indicated on Ex. 6, they will not be convenient to Lot 1 as they will require a lengthy walk up the hill. Parking on Wentworth is challenging and potentially dangerous.. That is why when Lisa Gray had a remodeler's showcase tour at her home last fall, we allowed her to have her guests park on Foxwood. The problem is Foxwood is not wide enough to allow for parking and emergency vehicles to pass. Also, it became apparent this winter that our snow plow contractor's equipment is not as heavy as the City's and cannot remove all the ice/snow from the pavement.. Nor, does our contractor salt/sand Foxwood As a result, Foxwood was ice/snow packed the entire winter.. It also becomes narrower as the light equipment cannot get the snow over the mounds of snow.. As a consequence of the steep slopes, snow -packed road, inability to plow curb to curb, and Foxwood parking, emergency vehicles would not be able to access Lots 2 and 3 in the winter. That the access roadway be twenty-four feet (24') wide and the driveways be twenty feet (20') wide. 3. That the following be included within covenants to be filed with the Plat. a.. That the City be able to enforce snow removal from the full twenty-four foot (24') width of the access road That the driveway access road be designated a fire access lane and "no parking" be enforced. Ex., 4. At the March 2, 1993 Mendota Heights City Council meeting, the Foxwood preliminary plat was approved "subject to the conditions recommended by the Planning Commission." Ex.. 5 The Operating Agreement (Ex 2) recognizes the City Council's prohibition of no street parking on Foxwood Lane.. The Operating Agreement states 6.15 Rules Regarding Use of Road Area.. To the extent the City of Mendota Heights permits the Declarant to control the Road Area, the parties hereto agree that the road area should be used solely: A. For vehicle access from the dedicated public roads adjacent to the Property to the driveways and roadways from time to time existing upon the Property.. It is anticipated that the road on the Road Area shall be constructed upon the Property materially as shown on plans and specifications approved in writing by Declarants and on file with page 106 Architectural Form (the "Road Plan"). Map attached to Ex,. 1. For the parking of automobiles upon the parking areas designated on the plat of Foxwood, as existing on the date thereof.. UTILITIES: Water service for Lot 3 and the large parcels south of Foxwood is also a concern. City water is supplied by the St. Paul Water Department. I have been speaking, meeting and corresponding with them since June 4, 2013.. Suffice to say, they are perplexed by the status of Foxwood as a private road on a public right of way. The Foxwood plat has a utilities easement under Foxwood and across the eastern portion of Lot 3 to our 10 -acre parcel. The last word I heard from St. Paul Water is that they would not construct an 8" main from Wentworth south on Foxwood to our back acreage because it is not a "public road." Therefore, water service to our Lot 3, and back 7 acres, as well as the other large lots south of us can only be accomplished by 1 1/2 inch linesThe problem with the small lines are numerous and include: 1) they would not accommodate fire hydrants as recommended by the fire chief back in 2003; 2) they are more susceptible to failure/reduced pressure; 3) they would not allow for a loop with Marie/Ridgewood; and 4) four small lines would not allow water access to the lots south of us when those neighbors decide to develop. The owners of Lots 2 and 3 are understandably concerned about applying a wear course at a cost of some $10,000 for each of the three lot owners (without allowance for parking pads). It is felt that a 24' to 27' road to access our property would benefit all owners. Parking on one side of the road would be allowed (like the Glen Toro PUD).. The City's larger snow removal equipment would make the road safer. Michelle and I would pay for the cost of bringing the new Foxwood Lane to city standards saving the Lot 1 and 2 owners thousands of dollars. Utilities would allow for fire hydrants nearer the homes on Lots 2 and 3 and would serve the large parcels south of our property (the Kolars and Obers) Alternatives Over the past 11 years, we have looked at access to our west acreage from every direction. The Obers and Kolars are, they tell us, not interested in developing their western acreage for years. The Obers own the Outlot at the north end of Ridgewood.. The Kolars and Obers can access their rear lots for development when and if they decide to do so. In 2003, and again in 2010, I met with Dakota County inquiring about a cul-de- sac from Delaware down our south property line (with the Kolars).. The county was not receptive to a Delaware cul-de-sac. They noted the number of driveways on Delaware page 107 and the fact that Delaware had roughly twice the traffic volume as Wentworth. The county was not particularly receptive to a Wentworth cul-de-sac either, but agreed it was much more preferable than Delaware due to less traffic and no driveways to the north of Wentworth (Somerset Golf Course). The county did express a preference for a "loop road" connecting Wentworth to Delaware. Ex. 7, The problem with this is first the cost was estimated at more than $500,000, thus requiring more lots. This connected road was also unanimously panned by all our neighbors. As for specific questions outlined in 12-1 K-6: 2.. A concept plan must include both maps and a written statement, and must show enough of the area surrounding the proposed planned unit development to demonstrate the relationship of the planned unit development to adjoining uses, both existing and proposed„ The maps which are part of the concept plan may be in general schematic form, and must contain the following information: a. The existing topographic character of the land.. See attached plan (Exhibit 1). b. Existing and proposed land uses and the approximate location of buildings, utilities and unique development features of the site See attached plan (Exhibit 1, existing & Exhibit 8, proposed). In regard to proposed utilities serving the proposed 4 -lot area of this PUD we provide the following: Sanitary sewer, if it is ever extended to this area, it has to come from Ridgewood Drive (due to grades and sewer depth). To serve this PUD, including the two existing homes in Foxwood on Lots 1 and 2, the main would have to extend from the south only to a point near the southeast corner of Lot 1. It would not be built in the existing 50 foot R/W area of Foxwood Lane. It would all be constructed within right-of-way in this PUD that would meet the minimum 60 foot width,. Storm sewer, if any, would start south of the 50 foot wide RM/ area.. The 50 foot wide area on the north of Foxwood Lane would surface -drain in the street section, from Wentworth south to where the storm sewer would begin. The only city utility in the 50 foot wide existing right-of-way would be watermain, which could easily be accommodated in that area page 108 The small utilities — gas, electric, cable and telephone — would be anticipated in the 10 -foot boulevard on either side of the pavement or, if any design problem is found with that area, these could be extended from Delaware Avenue, through the Bader homestead portion of the PUD.. c. The location of major thoroughfares. See attached plan (Exhibit 1). Public uses, including schools, parks, playgrounds, and other open spaces. There are no known public areas within the entire "Super Block".. The proposed lots are larger than required by zoning and provide considerable open space. Care will be taken -with the assistance of Dodge Nature staff to avoid or relocate nesting wildlife. It is not anticipated that any wetlands will be disturbed.. In fact, it is the Baders' intention to increase the depth and size of the small pond in the center of the proposed cul-de-sac It also bears remembering that back in 2003 the Baders hired a civil engineer to compare the percentage of wetlands between our proposed development (12 31 acres) and the Foxwood development (9 21 acres). Our larger of the two plots has 7.8% of the property in wetland as compared to Foxwood, where 17.9% of the land was wetland. In fact Lot 1 Foxwood was so impacted by wetlands that a dramatic front -yard setback variance had to be granted (a 30 foot variance was granted such that the house on Lot 1 could have been build 10 feet from the street right of way instead of the required 40 feet.. The house was built at a 20 foot setback). The approval of the Foxwood development in 1993, allowing the creation of Lot 1 containing the Targe wetland, not only required the significant front - yard setback variance but it also required the Foxwood Lane right-of- way to be narrowed from the required 60 foot width to 50 feet. No variances would be required for any of the proposed homesites in our PUD submittal.. 3. A written statement shall accompany the concept plan, which must contain the following information:: a. An explanation of the character of the planned unit development and the manner in which it is consistent with and has been planned to comply with the planned unit development provisions contained in this article. page 109 The proposed planned unit development encompasses the Baders' 10 acres and the Baders' Lot 3 (21/2 acres). The proposed lot sizes are larger than some immediate neighbors (Joyce, 1 acre, Gray, 2 acres) and similar in size to the lot sizes in Hidden Creek, the last development in the "Super Block There have been 53 lots platted between the 6 platted subdivisions in the "Super Block" in recent history (Foxwood, Breckenridge Estates, Hidden Creek Estates, Willow Spring, Pine Creek and Wallner-Joyce). The lot sizes in those plats range from 0.56 to 4.08 Acres. The average lot size for those platted subdivisions is 1.11 acres In Foxwood the average lot size is 2.25 acres, ranging from 2.00 to 2 4 acres. Here are the proposed lot sizes in this proposed PUD„ • In the four -lot subdivision area — lot sizes from 1.43 acres to 2.14 acres for an average lot size of 1 „895 acres. • In the entire PUD area (including the current Bader home and its final proposed lot) the average lot size would be 2.314 acres.. This average lot size is slightly larger than the average size in Foxwood.. A statement of proposed financing From our savings, or, if necessary, a loan on Lot 3. A bid from Arndt Construction was received for $180,000..00 for road construction.. It is anticipated that all the costs would approach $250,000..00. Also, several home builders have expressed interest in a joint venture. If need be, I could obtain a loan on Lot 3, which is unencumbered, or a second mortgage on our home which has considerable equity c. A statement of the present ownership and ail existing or contingent interests in all of the land included within the planned unit development. We, the Baders, own Lot 3 Foxwood and the 10 acres south of Lot 3, Foxwood as joint tenants. As noted, Foxwood is a private road on a public right of way, which is subject to the city's approval to continue as a private road. A general indication of the expected schedule of development including progressive phasing and time schedules which shall not page 110 exceed five (5) years from the date of approval of the final development plan for the planned unit development to the completion of all construction. It is anticipated that the Baders would start road construction soon after approval of the PUD. The Baders plan to build their home in step with a local builder who will build on the other lots.. In speaking with the prospective builders, it appears there is a strong demand for home sites in Mendota Heights.. We will work with the builders to coordinate construction of all home sites to minimize disruption. Certainly, all construction would be completed in 5 years. e. The character and approximate density of dwelling units. g In terms of character, the homes will be estate -type single family homes similar to the homes in Hidden Creek.. In terms of density, Mendota Heights' latest comp plan regarding this Rural Residential area recommends density of 1.1 UNITS PER ACRE (equates to a parcel size about 40,000 sq. ft.).. The proposed PUD with 4 lots off of Foxwood has a density of 0.47 units per acre — in the 4 -lot area.. Less than half of the recommended density. When you add in the Bader homestead parcel — which will be included in the PUD because it is being divided — the density would be 0.4 units/acre (about one-third of the recommended density in the comp plan). For the same neighborhood let's look at Zoning and parcel size This area is zoned R -1A - minimum parcel size 30,000 sq.. ft.. This proposed PUD would have an average parcel size of 84,100 sq.. ft.. or 1.9 acres (in just the 4 -lot area) and 100,777 sq.. ft.. or 2.3 acres in the overall PUD proposed. (3.4 times larger than the minimum required).. Estimated industrial or commercial acreage and projected employment.. N/A.. Estimated square footage of any commercial development N/A.. h.. Estimated amount of open space and a computation showing the percent of impervious surface in the project area.. The proposed PUD would have about a 10..4 % impervious surface page 111 coverage. Of the original 12..5 acres, following development of the PUD, there would be about 111 acres of open space remaining. That consists of the area exclusive of homes, driveways and street„ Projected traffic Assuming 3 additional lots at 7 to 10 trips per day per home, increased traffic will be projected at 21 to 30 additional cars/day on Foxwood. So, we appreciate the City's time and continued effort to address what we feel is a plan that not only improves our property, but also complements our neighborhood.

Bader: At your request, 1 measured the slopes on Foxwood and viewed the road as well as the plat map you provided (see copy attached). My first comment is that 1 have been in the asphalt business for more than 40 years and I don't believe I have ever run across a private drive on a public right of way. I can't imagine why a city would want this situation. I have many times re -paved and improved private roads that a city takes over for one reason or another. My observations are as follows: Both of the slopes to the cul-de-sac and Wentworth exceed 6°. While traffic is light, I suspect these exceed the city code. The slope to Wentworth is probably the biggest concern due to Wentworth through traffic. I could bid the work with the parking pads as shown on the plat, but I would suggest you consider widening Foxwood to allow for parking on the east side of the street. By the time you install the pads and fix the grade to Wentworth, the cost would be about the same. Fixing the grade to the cul-de-sac would be more expensive. I would suggest moving the access to Lot 3 to the top of Foxwood (east) and leave the cul-de-sac a private drive. Where the plat shows the driveway access to Lot 3 makes no sense to me (tight turn on steep slope). Exhibit 3 page 127 If you have any questions regarding my observations, please feel free to give me a call.

We support the opinion that the application by Mike and Michelle Bader does not qualify under Code to be processed as a PUD. Furthermore, with regards to moving ahead with the application being a standard plat, we respectfully ask that the Planning Commission recommend, and the Council deny the proposed application. I hope to attend the meeting on Tuesday. While not salient to what the Commission will review, the application and report refers to the private Operating Agreement and Covenants. Should you care to hear an alternative opinion to those references, or if there are other issues related to the application where you would like an adjacent landowners input, I will be more than happy to answer any questions Staff or Commission members may have at that time.

Regretfully, we will be in Omaha, Nebraska at a family celebration and will not be able to appear at the meeting of the Planning Commission on Tuesday, May 27, when this item is scheduled for comment. I trust that this correspondence will be shared with the City Planning Commission and will serve in our stead to present our opposition to this latest plan. While this may be a new subject for you, as City Planner, Mr. Wall, it is certainly not new to us, the Planning Commission or the City Council. I will not now reiterate the entire history that Foxwood has had with the City from its inception in 1993. That can be accomplished at a later date should the City require a summary. However, in March 2003, shortly after purchasing Lot 3, the Baders initiated their attempts to change Foxwood, by extending the Foxwood Lane right-of-way and thus constructing a road across Lot 3 of Foxwood. This request came complete with plans to subdivide both Lot 3 and the back acreage of their Delaware home into many lots, with all traffic using Foxwood Lane for ingress and egress. This plan was opposed by the owners of Lot 1 (Lutz) and Lot 2 (Aune/Miller), as well as the owners of the properties adjacent to Foxwood. The petition was denied by the City in July 2003. I mention this initial attempt by the Baders for several reasons. First, the Baders purchased Lot 3 Foxwood, with full knowledge that it was encumbered by Restrictive Covenents that would not allow for the construction of a road across Lot 3 without the approval of the other two lot owners in Foxwood. While the City has no authority to enforce Restrictive Covenents, and we would not ask the City to do so, it is informational, at the least, to acknowledge their existence. With regard to said covenents and a proposed road, Mr. Bader DOES NOT and WILL NOT receive the consent of the owners of Lot 1 or Lot 2. The arguments against this concept plan are exactly the same as the arguments made in 2003, 2010, and 2012. Nothing has changed. The owners of Lots 1 and 2 purchased lots and built homes in a small, quiet 3 -Lot development on a private road (with a public right-of-way). The City approved Foxwood as such, with no mention of further development and the lot owners have the right to rely on that. page 138 Second, it is clear that the Baders, upon purchasing Lot 3, had no intention whatsoever of honoring the Restrictive Covenents that the owners of Lots 1 and 2 relied upon in the purchase of their properties. Indeed, the Baders state very clearly in the subject submission. "In 2003 we purchased Lot 3 Foxwood with the expectation that we could gain access for the lots in our western property from Wentworth." (May 5, 2014 Application for a concept PUD, p. 1, para.1; emphasis added) If the Baders had any consideration whatsoever for the property rights of their prospective neighbors in Foxwood, it would have been prudent, not to mention polite, to check with them regarding the possibility of development prior to making such an investment and forming such an expectation. Third, the Baders suggest that Foxwood Lane poses a significant public safety risk. I am surprised that the Baders would invest in a lot on a road that presented such a risk. Of course, there is no such risk, this is really just the latest in a long list of tactics the Baders have attempted to use in getting the City to alter Foxwood. If the primary concern of the Baders were truly public safety, why wouldn't they just ask the City to widen the road within the right of way? Public safety does not also require a public street and multiple additional lots tacked on to Foxwood. Foxwood Lane does not present a risk to public safety. Indeed, when the road was constructed the City was very involved in every last detail regarding the road, it's width and even the placement of the home on Lot 1. (See Exhibit 1) The Baders mention the recent arbitration regarding the placing the final wear course on the road. Despite the contention otherwise, the only real subject of arbitration was that wear course. Prior to Bader's demand for arbitration, all owners agreed to obtain bids to soften the grade of Foxwood Lane as it joins Wentworth. The Baders had a contractor that suggested he could do the job but then delayed to the point that the weather would no longer allow the work. Indeed the major usefulness of the arbitration was that it set a deadline of June 30 for the work to be done on the grade and for the wear course to follow. Any issue regarding parking was deemed by the arbitrators to be not ripe for decision as the Baders do not yet reside in Foxwood and are thus unaffected. Fourth, it bears mentioning that the primary issue at the intersection of Foxwood Lane and Wentworth is not Foxwood Lane. It is Wentworth and it's grade combined with speed of traffic, absent shoulders, steep ditches and no guardrails. We are softening the grade of Foxwood and widening the mouth to the width of the culvert in order to accommodate easier ingress and egress by any driver during any kind of weather. Indeed the County recently added the stop sign to remind drivers to take care when entering Wentworth. Adding significantly more vehicle traffic to Foxwood and joining Wentworth at that intersection, as suggested in the PUD Concept plan at issue, would create a far greater public safety risk. I appreciate that the Planning Commission would like to find a solution to this issue. Unfortunately, there really is no solution that involves and extension of Foxwood Lane that would be fair to the other lot owners. If the Baders would like to develop the back acreage of their Delaware home, I would again suggest that they utilize all 10 of the acres that they own rather than placing the entire burden of their development aspirations on the other Foxwood residents and our neighbors. They have far more room between their Delaware home and the property line to place a public street than there is between our home and the property line of Lot 1. In that scenario their property alone would bear the burden of the development - as it should be. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Good luck with your new development! Sincerely, Kevin Batchelder Administrative Assistant cc: James E. Danielson, Public Works Director I have asked Gary Caufield to appear on my behalf this evening, as I am unable to attend personally. I own the property noted as the Gray property on the various plat drawings that have been presented to the Commission. I have previously voiced my concerns about the proposals that the Baders have presented for developing their property. To date none of the proposals presented by the Baders address the concerns that I have raised, nor for that matter the concerns raised by the neighbors most affected by the Bader's plans. Indeed, it seems impossible -to mlhow any plan that calls for the widening of Foxwood would not have a material adverse impact on the Lutz property. Moreover, although not directly relevant to the City's decision, each of the plans submitted by Bader violate the covenants to which my property is a direct beneficiary. Until and unless these concerns are addressed to my satisfaction, I will not agree to any permanent or temporary easements necessary to build the required public infrastructure.
