The petition requests that the Council revisit the question of allowing chickens in the residents’ backyards. He referenced previous requests as an example, most recently Planning Case 2014-35 in December 2014, which was denied. He also noted that the discussion at the Goals Workshop held by the City Council really was not a discussion but an agreement by the Council to not allow chickens to be raised as pets within the City. He listed several neighboring cities that have found no quality of life or nuisance issues with their modifications in their city codes allowing for raising chickens as pets. Mr. Howard Paster of Paster Properties announced that all of the spaces in Mendota Plaza are now leased. The King and I Thai Restaurant opened up a couple of weeks ago and Fresh and Natural Foods grocery store is leasing the end cap location. There has not been a grocery in this location since the late 1980’s. Mr. Paster introduced Mr. Kerry Larson from Fresh and Natural Foods to give a snap shot of their grocery stores. Mr. Larson explained that they are in the health business and food is their vehicle; a full- service grocery store with a full fresh meat department, full deli, scratch meat deli, large produce department with a large selection of bulk foods as well, and then a grocery, frozen food, dairy, natural health and body care products, natural beauty care products, and health supplements.

It was noted that the city’s general fund balance has been reduced from 98% in 2012 to a current 80%. A base budget with very few differences from the 2015 budget was presented which showed an increase of $207,394. The increase is due to wages, workers compensation insurance, lower transfers, and City Hall rent. The overall base levy increase is 3.72%. The Council reviewed 25 improvement packages submitted by staff. 13 of the improvement packages were recommended for funding in 2016. The total cost of those improvements would be $158,027. If all 13 improvement packages were approved, it would add 2.26% to the overall levy increase. It was noted that each additional $70,000 added to the budget generates a 1% increase. The proposed overall base levy and the improvement packages as recommended would increase the levy by 5.98% for FY 2016, or a total levy increase of $418,721. The effect on taxes for a home valued at $334,863 (median home value) would be $62.59. Councilmember Petschel stated she would like to see the tax increase for a home valued at $225,000.

CALL TO ORDER Mayor Krebsbach called the meeting to order at 4:42 p.m. Councilmembers present included Duggan, Petschel, and Povolny. Councilmember Norton arrived at 5:00 p.m. Also in attendance: City Administrator McNeill, Public Works Director John Mazzitello, Finance Director Kristen Schabacker, City Clerk Lorri Smith, General Manager Steve Schneider from St. Paul Regional Water and Matt Anfang, Chairman of the Board of Commissioners for St. Paul Regional Water Service. ST. PAUL REGIONAL WATER CONTRACT DISCUSSION Public Works Director John Mazzitello provided an overview of existing contractual agreement with St. Paul Regional Water Service. The agreement expires in December 2015. Under the current agreement, the City of Mendota Heights owns the distribution system and is responsible for all routine maintenance, rehabilitation, and replacement of the system components. St. Paul Regional Water supplies the water and is responsible for all emergency repairs, inspection or completion of new or replacement projects, and conducts all billing for the utility. Because of this, St. Paul Regional Water charges Mendota Heights residents a rate 20% higher than their base rate for other municipal customers. Additionally, the City of Mendota Heights charges a 10% surcharge to all water utility customers to gain revenue for the Water Utility Fund which is used to fund maintenance activities as well as rehabilitation and replacement projects. St. Paul Regional Water presented the Council with a revised proposed contract, showing updates made based on the Council’s comments from the June 29, 2015 Workshop meeting. Mayor Krebsbach asked for a proposed timeline. Mr. Schneider stated that if the Council approves the agreement to convey the system to St. Paul Regional Water, then that contract would be presented to the Board of Commissioners of St. Paul Regional Water System for their approval. If this contract is not approved by the Mendota Heights City Council, then an extension of the current contract could be discussed. The Councilmembers discussed how the city could take back the system in the future if they desire to do that, the age of the water pipes throughout the city and which ones get replaced first, the capacity of the St. page 13 Paul Regional Water System’s facility, and whether the water distribution system is an asset or a liability for the City. Mayor Krebsbach requested additional information for the next meeting, including a chart of the water mains in the city and the repair cycle of the mains and the financial statements for St. Paul Regional Water System. It was noted that St. Paul Regional Water has a AAA bond rating with Standard and Poor’s. FIRE STATION FEASIBILITY AND PROGRAMMING STUDY Staff in attendance: City Administrator McNeill, Assistant to the City Administrator/HR Coordinator Tamara Schutta, Finance Director Kristen Schabacker, Fire Chief John Maczko, City Clerk Lorri Smith, Randy Engel and Modris Feders, representing Buetow 2 Architects. Fire Chief Maczko presented an overview of fire station feasibility study that was completed by Buetow 2 Architects. Randy Engel then gave a presentation of their findings of need. He presented four proposed action plans. Three of the plans would retain the existing fire station building. One plan would replace the existing building. The first plan presented is the lowest in cost and includes only the minimums to be done. It would include repairs and replacements to the existing 25,500 square foot facility. This action plan does not address the essential long-term improvements to the facility such as space needs, handicapped accessibility, gender equity, training facilities, safety improvements, or security enhancements. The estimated project cost for this plan is $1,550,000. The second action plan (5A) would include an addition to the existing building which would improve the way the building operates and improve security. The expansion would include an apparatus bay addition, firefighter addition, training addition, and an ambulance suite, along with renovations to the existing space. This plan adds approximately 10,600 square feet to the existing building. The estimated project cost for this plan is $6,000,000. The third action plan (6A) would include an addition to the existing building which would improve the way the building operates and improve security. The expansion would include an apparatus bay addition, firefighter addition, training addition, and an ambulance suite, along with renovations to the existing space. This plan adds approximately 8,300 square feet onto the existing building. The estimated project cost for this plan is $5,200,000. Action plan #4 would include replacement of the existing building with a new 20,000 square foot structure. The estimated project cost for this plan is $7,200,000. It was noted that this plan would provide for operational savings and rebates from Xcel Energy, and the building would be the most efficient. There are also many ‘unknowns’ when a remodel project is completed. The needs of the department were identified by Chief Maczko. They were training, storage, HealthEast ambulance inside storage, safety and storage for the turnout gear, air quality sensors, and mechanical- heating system. page 14 The Council discussed the location of the fire department, temporary space that would be needed during the duration of the project, the current trends in fire departments, and the possibility of the department merging with another adjacent department in the future. Mayor Krebsbach stated that the financing of this project will be the biggest challenge. She stated that the city hall should have a space needs analysis completed before any action is taken on this project. Councilmember Povolny suggested that the city consider moving the police department to the fire department site, and a building be completed for both departments to be located adjacent to each other. Administrator McNeill summarized that the city will look into the cost of completing a space needs analysis of the police department and the administration departments, and this item will be brought back to a Council workshop meeting in one month. CONTINUED BUDGET FY2016 DISCUSSION Staff indicated that the 2016 budget discussion will continue on the workshop agenda set for Tuesday, September 1, 2015 starting at 5:00 p.m. ADJOURN Mayor Krebsbach adjourned the meeting at 7:28 p.m. ____________________________________ ATTEST: Sandra Krebsbach, Mayor _______________________________ Lorri Smith, City Clerk page 15 CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS 1 DAKOTA COUNTY, MINNESOTA 2 3 PLANNING COMMISSON MINUTES 4 August 25, 2015 5 6 The regular meeting of the Mendota Heights Planning Commission was held on Tuesday, August 7 25, 2015 in the Council Chambers at City Hall, 1101 Victoria Curve at 7:00 P.M. 8 9 The following Commissioners were present: Chair Litton Field, Jr., Commissioners Howard 10 Roston, Michael Noonan, Doug Hennes, Mary Magnuson, Christine Costello and Ansis Viksnins. 11 Those absent: None. Others present were City Planner Nolan Wall and Public Works Director/City 12 Engineer John Mazzitello. 13 14 Approval of Agenda 15 16 The agenda was approved as submitted. 17 18 Approval of July 28, 2015 Minutes 19 20 Commissioner Viksnins asked for clarification that Commissioner Hennes moved to approve 21 Planning Case 2015-24 and then voted to deny. Commissioner Hennes confirmed that once he had 22 made the motion he then changed his mind and voted to deny, so the minutes are correct. 23 24 COMMISSIONER NOONAN MOVED, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER HENNES TO 25 APPROVE THE MINUTES OF JULY 28, 2015, AS PRESENTED. 26 27 AYES: 7 28 NAYS: 0 29 30 Hearings 31 32 Chair Field noted that staff advertised a public hearing for Planning Case 2015-33, a Wetlands 33 Permit at 2195 Glen Toro Road; however, that application has been withdrawn. It is anticipated 34 that the applicant will be resubmitting for consideration at the September 22, 2015 Planning 35 Commission Meeting and another notice will be published and mailed to surrounding properties. 36 37 PLANNING CASE #2015-26 38 Robert Alvarez, 1176 Ivy Hill Drive 39 Variance Request for Deck 40 41 Chair Field noted that this application was held over from last month’s meeting and is back before 42 the Commission this evening. 43 44 City Planner Nolan Wall explained that the applicant is seeking to construct a deck that requires a 45 variance from the R-1 district’s rear yard setback standards. The Planning Commission tabled 46 action on this request at the July meeting with the public hearing remaining open. The applicant 47 page 16 intends to construct a deck wrapping around the west and northwest corner of the existing dwelling. 48 As proposed, a portion of the proposed deck within the rear yard requires a variance. 49 50 The original request was for a nine-foot rear yard setback variance. The applicant has since 51 amended the application and is now proposing to construct a 3.5-foot-wide walkway/landing into 52 the rear yard to access the compliant portion of the proposed deck in the side yard, resulting in a 53 reduction of the previously-proposed encroachment by over five feet. 54 55 Planner Wall then reviewed the three standards to be considered and applied in this variance 56 request and how this request meets those standards. Staff recommended approval of this amended 57 variance request. 58 59 Mr. Robert Alvarez, 1176 Ivy Hill Drive was available to answer questions and make comments; 60 there were none. 61 62 Chair Field asked if there was anyone in attendance to comment on this request since the public 63 hearing was still open. Seeing no one coming forward wishing to speak, Chair Field asked for a 64 motion to close the public hearing. 65 66 COMMISSIONER VIKSNINS MOVED, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER ROSTON, TO 67 CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. 68 69 AYES: 7 70 NAYS: 0 71 72 COMMISSIONER NOONAN MOVED, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER VIKSNINS, TO 73 RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF PLANNING CASE 2015-26, VARIANCE REQUEST BASED 74 ON THE FOLLOWING FINDINGS OF FACT: 75 1. Construction of the proposed walkway/landing within the required setback to access the 76 rear yard and compliant deck structure in the side yard through an existing patio door is a 77 reasonable use of the property and meets the purpose and intent of the Code and 78 Comprehensive Plan. 79 2. Due to the subject parcel’s frontage and existing conditions, a practical difficulty is 80 demonstrated in order to construct a walkway/landing within the required rear yard setback 81 to access a compliant deck structure from within the existing dwelling and provide safe 82 access to the rear yard. 83 3. As proposed, the request would not allow for useable deck space in the rear yard or 84 negatively impact the essential character of the neighborhood. 85 AND WITH THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS: 86 1. The proposed encroachment would extend no further than 3.5 feet from the northeast 87 corner of the existing dwelling to provide access to the compliant portion of the proposed 88 deck in the side yard. 89 2. The applicant obtains a building permit. 90 91 AYES: 7 92 NAYS: 0 93 94 page 17 Chair Field advised the City Council would consider this application at its September 1, 2015 95 meeting. 96 97 PLANNING CASE #2015-31 98 Joe Juliette, 1920 Glenhill Road 99 Critical Area Permit 100 101 City Planner Nolan Wall explained that the applicant was requesting a Critical Area Permit to 102 remodel an existing single-family dwelling within the Mississippi Corridor Critical Area. The 103 subject parcel is located 1920 Glenhill Road, zoned R-1, and guided as Low Density Residential 104 Development in the Comprehensive Plan. 105 106 Planner Wall shared an aerial image of the subject property and explained that the proposed project 107 potentially impacting the Critical Area consists of removal and reconstruction of the existing deck 108 and porch, including roof modifications. As proposed, the project does meet the applicable zoning 109 regulations and conditions for improvements to existing structures that were built prior to 2003 in 110 the Critical Area. The new porch and deck do not extend any closer than the existing condition 111 and the overall building height is not increased. Staff recommended approval of this Critical Area 112 Permit request with conditions. 113 114 Commissioners asked for clarification on what exists and what is proposed as new and how much 115 disturbance of the property there would be in connection with the project. 116 117 Mr. Joe Juliette, 1920 Glenhill Road was present to answer questions or make comment. 118 119 Commissioners asked the applicant about how much disturbance to the property there would be. 120 121 Chair Field opened the public hearing. 122 123 Seeing no one coming forward wishing to speak, Chair Field asked for a motion to close the public 124 hearing. 125 126 COMMISSIONER ROSTON MOVED, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER COSTELLO, TO 127 CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. 128 129 AYES: 7 130 NAYS: 0 131 132 COMMISSIONER MAGNUSON MOVED, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER HENNES, TO 133 RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF PLANNING CASE 2015-31, CRITICAL AREA PERMIT 134 BASED ON THE FOLLOWING FINDINGS OF FACT: 135 1. The proposed project meets the purpose and intent of the Critical Area Overlay District 136 and with the city’s comprehensive plan. 137 2. The proposed addition is in keeping with the character of the area. 138 3. The proposed use is allowed under city ordinance. 139 4. The proposed addition does not increase the height of the existing structure. 140 141 AND WITH THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS: 142 page 18 1. All applicable permits are obtained from the City prior to construction of the proposed 143 project. 144 2. Construction of the proposed improvements shall be in compliance with the City’s Land 145 Disturbance Guidance Document. 146 3. Separate permits will be applied for and obtained when the existing exterior stairs are to be 147 replaced and for any additional future projects. 148 149 AYES: 7 150 NAYS: 0 151 152 Chair Field advised the City Council would consider this application at its September 1, 2015 153 meeting. 154 155 PLANNING CASE #2015-32 156 HD Supply Construction & Industrial – White Cap, 1400 Commerce Drive 157 Conditional Use Permit and Variances 158 159 City Planner Nolan Wall explained that the applicant was seeking a Conditional Use Permit to 160 expand an existing outdoor storage area and variances to allow outdoor storage within 1,500 feet 161 of a residential zone and to allow screened open-air storage of materials. 162 163 Planner Wall shared images of the property and described its surroundings. The subject parcel is 164 approximately three acres and zoned and guided for industrial development. The existing 165 office/warehouse building is currently vacant and has a legally nonconforming outdoor storage 166 yard. 167 168 The proposed use is a permitted nonmanufacturing use in the Industrial District as landscaping and 169 building design and construction. The applicant is proposing to expand the existing outdoor storage 170 area to approximately 19,000 square feet. Outdoor storage for the permitted use is allowed by a 171 Conditional Use Permit, subject to thirteen conditions. The proposed project meets all but two of 172 those required conditions, those being: 173 174 • No outdoor storage can be located within 1,500 feet of a residentially-zoned property 175 • All storage and display must be under three-sided covered structures 176 177 Regarding the first variance request, Planner Wall shared a zoning map showing the residentially-178 zoned property in question, which is a portion of Acacia Park Cemetery. Staff feels that due to the 179 nature of the use and the fact that the subject parcel is not visible from the cemetery, the intent of 180 the Code’s setback provision is met. He also noted that there are three existing nonconforming 181 residential structures that are located within 1,500 feet, but they are not zoned residential; 182 therefore, they do not apply in this case. 183 184 Regarding the second variance request, Planner Wall shared images of other sites operated by the 185 applicant and described the materials proposed to be stored on-site. Due to the nature of the 186 materials to be stored outside and because they will be obscured from view by the recommended 187 fencing, staff felt that requiring three-sided covered structures was unnecessary in this case. 188 page 19 Planner Wall further explained how the proposed use meets the standards for approval of the 189 variance requests. 190 191 Planner Wall shared images of the proposed six-foot-high slatted chain-link fence. He noted that 192 while specifications were not provided as part of the application, it would most likely not meet the 193 Code’s 90% opacity standard. Therefore, staff is recommending a wood fence that meets the 194 opacity standard be erected around the entire proposed outdoor storage yard, which would be 195 consistent with other properties in the immediate area. 196 197 Staff recommended approval of the requests with conditions. 198 199 Commissioners asked questions regarding proposed condition #2 (All materials will be packaged 200 or self-contained. No loose or bulk materials), if another finding should be added that the 201 residentially-zoned property is a cemetery and not residential homes, if a minimum height 202 requirement of six feet should be added to condition #3, and if this application would create a 203 disconnect between what the Industrial District study is considering. 204 205 Ms. Jessica Beyer from HD Supply Construction & Industrial – White Cap, 5205 Highway 169 206 North, Plymouth, MN was on hand to answer questions or comment. She commented that they 207 would be agreeable to erecting a wood fence and noted that many of items shown in the images of 208 other storage yards they operate would be stored inside at this location due to the size of the 209 warehouse. She further commented that they would continue to operate at their existing location 210 and that this would be a secondary location with room to grow. In response to a question on the 211 need for the proposed expanded outdoor storage yard, she indicated that they also intend to store 212 vehicles within the locked fenced-in area. 213 214 Chair Field opened the public hearing. 215 216 Seeing no one coming forward wishing to speak, Chair Field asked for a motion to close the public 217 hearing. 218 219 COMMISSIONER VIKSNINS MOVED, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER NOONAN, TO 220 CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. 221 222 AYES: 7 223 NAYS: 0 224 225 COMMISSIONER ROSTON MOVED, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER VIKSNINS, TO 226 RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF PLANNING CASE 2015-26, VARIANCE REQUEST BASED 227 ON THE FOLLOWING FINDINGS OF FACT: 228 1. The proposed variance meets the purpose and intent of the conditional use permit standard 229 for 1,500’ buffer from residential uses and that the residential use within that 1,500’ buffer 230 is a cemetery. 231 2. The proposed variance meets the purpose and intent of the conditional use permit standard 232 for three-side enclosed covered storage. 233 3. Granting of the variances sought is in accordance with the standards laid out in the City 234 Code. 235 page 20 4. The proposed project meets the purpose and intent of the remaining conditional use permit 236 requirements for outdoor storage in the Industrial District of the City Code. 237 5. The proposed project will aesthetically improve an existing nonconformity. 238 AND WITH THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS: 239 1. Materials stored on site will not exceed a height of 6’. 240 2. All materials will be packaged or self-contained. No loose or bulk materials. 241 3. A 6’ high wood fence that provides a minimum of 90% opacity during all seasons will be 242 provided on the front and side yards. 243 244 AYES: 7 245 NAYS: 0 246 247 Chair Field advised the City Council would consider this application at its September 1, 2015 248 meeting. 249 250 PLANNING CASE #2015-34 251 City of Mendota Heights 252 Proposed City Code Amendment Concerning Alternative Energy Systems 253 254 City Planner Nolan Wall explained that the City was considering amendments to Title 12, Chapter 255 1, Articles B, D, and E of the City Code concerning alternative energy systems. Currently, there 256 are no standards in place for alternative energy systems; however, the 2030 Comprehensive Plan 257 includes a section on protection of solar access and a policy to consider modifying the Code. 258 259 Draft Ordinance 485 creates a new section in the Code and provides standards, right now, only for 260 solar energy systems. Additional sections can be added as necessary in the future to address 261 ground-source heat pumps (geothermal) and wind energy systems, if and when the need arises. 262 The proposed draft ordinance ensures that consistent standards are in place to encourage 263 sustainable practices that do not adversely impact the community. 264 265 Planner Wall then reviewed the proposed amendments and regulations contained in draft 266 Ordinance 485. 267 268 Commissioners asked questions regarding setback requirements, demolition permits, conditional 269 use permit standard #2 (That the solar energy system has a net energy gain), the existence of any 270 legislation about solar energy systems, and conditional use versus permitted as an accessory use. 271 After further discussion regarding the conditional versus permitted use issue, the Commission 272 agreed that this would be a policy issue for the City Council to determine. 273 274 Let the record reflect that there was no one present to address a public hearing so no motion to 275 close was necessary. 276 277 COMMISSIONER VIKSNINS MOVED, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER NOONAN, TO 278 RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF PLANNING CASE 2015-34, PROPOSED CITY CODE 279 AMENDMENT CONCERNING ALTERNATIVE ENERGY SYSTEMS 280 281 AYES: 7 282 NAYS: 0 283 page 21 PLANNING CASE #2015-14 284 City of Mendota Heights 285 Proposed City Code Amendment Concerning Trade Schools 286 287 City Planner Nolan Wall explained that the City is considering amendments to Title 12, Chapter 288 1, Article B, Section 2 of the City Code concerning the definition of a trade school. Staff originally 289 brought this request forward at the May Planning Commission meeting; action was tabled with the 290 public hearing remaining open. The intent is to clarify the City’s interpretation of the existing 291 definition. 292 293 Commissioners asked to be reminded why the revised definition includes “privately-owned” 294 versus “public”, why the definition says “including, but not limited to”, 295 296 After discussion it was the consensus of the Commission to amend the definition as follows 297 (remove or add): 298 299 TRADE SCHOOL: A privately-owned, post-secondary, skill-based educational institution which 300 offers completion programs that issue certificates, diplomas, and degrees;, and or certified 301 training to full and/or part time students including, but not limited to, such as those in technical, 302 mechanical, services and computing fields. 303 304 Let the record reflect that there was no one present to address a public hearing so no motion to 305 close was necessary. 306 307 COMMISSIONER VIKSNINS MOVED, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER COSTELLO, TO 308 RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF PLANNING CASE 2015-14, PROPOSED CITY CODE 309 AMENDMENT CONCERNING TRADE SCHOOLS AS AMENDED BY THE COMMISSION 310 311 AYES: 7 312 NAYS: 0 313 314 Schedule Redevelopment Plan Workshop 315 316 Planner Nolan Wall noted that earlier this year the City received a grant from the Dakota County 317 CDA to do a redevelopment plan for the Industrial District. The Council approved a project scope 318 and staff is working with the planning consultants (Stantec) on the initial scope and the work. One 319 of the pieces of the scope of the project is to have a joint workshop between the Planning 320 Commission and the City Council once feedback has been received from stakeholders to share 321 ideas and get feedback. 322 323 Planner Wall noted that the already scheduled Planning Commission meetings and City Council 324 meetings do not work for some members of the Council or the planning consultant. Other dates 325 under consideration are October 19th, 21st, 22nd, or 29th. It is anticipated that the meeting would 326 begin at 5:00 p.m. and last approximately two hours. He then asked if any of the proposed dates 327 would definitely not work for any members of the Commission, noting that any potential dates 328 would need to be brought to the City Council for their availability. 329 330 The consensus of the Planning Commission members were for October 19th, 21st, and 29th. 331 page 22 Verbal Review 332 333 Planner Wall gave the following verbal review: 334 335 PLANNING CASE #2015-27 336 Wetlands Permit at 2185 Glen Toro Road 337 • Approved by the City Council as recommended by the Planning Commission. 338 339 PLANNING CASE #2015-24 340 Critical Area Permit and Variance for a Retaining Wall at 1680 Mayfield Heights Road 341 • The Commission tabled this request last month, the applicant withdrew the application and 342 submitted a building permit for a revised plan that did not need a variance. 343 344 PLANNING CASE #2015-25 345 Variances for Accessory Structure at Mendakota Country Club 346 • Approved by the City Council as recommended by the Planning Commission. 347 348 PLANNING CASE #2015-28 349 City-initiated Code Amendment Concerning Video/Electronic Display Scoreboards 350 • Ultimately approved by the City Council with minor revisions concerning the setbacks 351 352 PLANNING CASE #2015-29 and PLANNING CASE #2015-30 353 City-initiated Code Amendment and Interim Use Permit for the city-operated Off-lease Dog Area 354 at the Pilot Knob South site 355 • Ultimately both were approved by the City Council 356 • At the most recent City Council meeting they approved a fencing plan for that area 357 • City Engineer John Mazzitello provided an update on the fencing, lighting, and other plans 358 359 Staff and Commission Announcements 360 361 • Next Planning Commission Meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, September 22, 2015 362 363 Adjournment 364 365 COMMISSIONER MAGNUSON MOVED, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER ROSTON, TO 366 ADJOURN THE MEETING AT 8:24 P.M. 367 368 AYES: 7 369 NAYS: 0 370 page 23 DATE: September 1, 2015 TO: Mayor and City Council, City Administrator FROM: Lorri Smith, City Clerk SUBJECT: November 3rd City Council Meeting Time Change BACKGROUND This year, the November 3rd City Council meeting falls on the same date as the regularly scheduled school district general election. While there are no city races on the ballot, state law prohibits public meetings between the hours of 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. In years past, the city council has chosen to start their meeting on this night an hour later. If this is the desire of the council, the official start time of the November 3rd city council meeting would be posted as 8:00 p.m. RECOMMENDATION If the council desires, a motion to approve changing the start time of the November 3rd city council meeting to 8:00 p.m. would be in order. Approval of this action requires a majority vote of the city council. page 24 DATE: September 1, 2015 TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Mark McNeill, City Administrator SUBJECT: Joint Meeting with Planning Commission COMMENT: INTRODUCTION The Council is asked to approve the scheduling of a joint meeting with the Planning Commission to discuss the Industrial Area Redevelopment Plan. BACKGROUND At the August 18th meeting, Council discussed when to schedule a joint meeting with the Planning Commission, which would provide an opportunity to present ideas to the two bodies in order to receive feedback, gauge support and develop a preferred plan for Stantec to refine. After determining that the originally suggested date wouldn’t work, alternative dates have since be discussed with the consultant and the Planning Commission. The new suggested time and date is Thursday, October 29th. A joint workshop could begin at 5:00 PM. An alternative to that would be Wednesday, October 21st. RECOMMENDATION: I recommend a joint workshop to discuss the preliminary Industrial Area Redevelopment Plan be scheduled for 5:00 PM, on Thursday, October 29th. The meeting would be in the City Council Chambers. ACTION REQUIRED: If the Council concurs, the Council should, by motion, schedule a joint meeting with the Mendota Heights Planning Commission to be held at 5:00 PM on Thursday, October 29th. ____________________________ Mark McNeill, City Administrator page 25 DATE: September 1, 2015 TO: Mayor, City Council, and City Administrator FROM: Lorri Smith, City Clerk SUBJECT: Temporary On-Sale Liquor License for St. Thomas Academy INTRODUCTION Pursuant to State Statutes and our City Code, no person shall sell or give away liquor without first having received a license. Temporary On-Sale Liquor licenses shall be granted only to clubs and charitable, religious or nonprofit organizations for the sale of intoxicating liquor. The licenses are subject to final approval by the Director of Alcohol and Gambling Enforcement. DISCUSSION St. Thomas Academy, located at 949 Mendota Heights Road, is planning to hold their annual reunion weekend activities at St. Thomas Academy on September 23 – 25, 2015. The events will take place as follows: • Wednesday, September 23, Opus Sancti Thomae Major Benefactor Dinner in the Ciresi Atrium and Holtz Gym. • Thursday, September 24, Senior Stag Dinner in the Holtz Gym, and also the alumni gathering in the Sjoberg Arena. • Friday, September 25, Athletic Hall of Fame Inductees Dinner and a hospitality room for alumni and guests during homecoming football game in the Holtz Gym. They have requested a Temporary On-Sale Liquor License to allow for the sale of alcoholic beverages at the events. St. Thomas Academy has submitted an application and a certificate of insurance showing liquor liability on above dates. It should be noted that temporary on-sale liquor licenses have been issued in the past to St. Thomas Academy and other charitable, nonprofit and religious organizations within the city with no incidents or negative reports. RECOMMENDED ACTION Staff recommends the City Council approve a Temporary On-Sale Liquor License for St. Thomas Academy for September 23, 24, and 25, 2015, subject to approval of the Director of Alcohol and Gambling Enforcement. page 26 DATE: September 1, 2015 TO: Mayor, City Council, and City Administrator FROM: John R. Mazzitello, PE, PMP, MBA – Public Works Director/City Engineer SUBJECT: Ordinance 486 – Establishing Parking Restrictions – Acacia Boulevard BACKGROUND With the establishment of an Off-Leash Dog Area (OLDA) on Acacia Boulevard, it will become necessary to regulate parking in order to maintain public pedestrian and traffic safety in the area. The OLDA will utilize on-street parking for patrons of the OLDA to park. Acacia Boulevard is 44 feet wide and experiences large truck traffic from the Mendota Heights Industrial park throughout the day. With the addition of on-street parking for the OLDA, this traffic may be adversely impacted. The attached Ordinance would formally codify parking restriction on Acacia Boulevard in the vicinity of the OLDA. The Ordinance would prohibit parking on the north side of Acacia Boulevard and for the westernmost 75 feet on the south side of Acacia Boulevard. These restrictions will allow for continued two-way truck traffic as well as provide safety for the patrons of the OLDA by preventing people and animals from having to cross Acacia Boulevard to access the OLDA. This is consistent with parking restrictions imposed at other Mendota Heights parks. These parking restrictions will still allow up to 28 vehicles to park along Acacia Boulevard at any given point in time. BUDGET IMPACT Other than the costs of Ordinance publication and sign manufacture, no significant costs are anticipated. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends Council adopt the attached ORDINANCE No. 486 – AN ORDINANCE AMENDING TITLE 6, CHAPTER 3, OF THE CITY CODE TO PROHIBIT PARKING ON PORTIONS OF ACACIA BOULEVARD. page 27 CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS DAKOTA COUNTY, MINNESOTA ORDINANCE NO. 486 AN ORDINANCE AMENDING TITLE 6, CHAPTER 3 OF THE CITY CODE TO PROHIBIT PARKING ON PORTIONS OF ACACIA BOULEVARD The City Council of the City of Mendota Heights, Minnesota ordains as follows: SECTION 1 The following language is added to Section 6-3-3C – Parking Prohibited on Certain Streets: Acacia Boulevard North Between Pilot Knob Road and Highway 13 Acacia Boulevard South Between Pilot Knob Road and 75 feet east of Pilot Knob Road Adopted and ordained into an Ordinance this first day of September 2015.

Following completion of the street sweeping operations, any remaining budget is allocated to paint striping or markings on city streets. The remaining budget after the spring street sweeping for 2015 is approximately $20,900.00. Staff estimates that a fall sweeping will cost approximately $5,000. City Council approved the use of epoxy enamel marking paint, which lasts two to four times longer than the paints previously used. This product is extensively used by Dakota County and MnDOT. Mendota Heights is able to secure bids for this service through the JPA with the City of Burnsville. Sir Lines-A-Lot was granted the service through the JPA and submitted a quote of $13,818.40. Marie Avenue from Lexington Avenue to Dodd Road is proposed to be striped. The new striping will eliminate the dashed centerline which will be replaced with a double solid yellow stripe and include white fog lines to separate parking areas from drive lanes. New crosswalks and turn arrows will also be added. BUDGET IMPACT The project costs will be funded through the Public Works Street Cleaning and Striping Budget which has sufficient funds to cover the project costs. The total cost for the 2015 Street Striping is $13,818.40. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the council accept the quote and authorize staff to execute a Purchase Order. If city council wishes to implement the staff recommendations, pass a motion authorizing staff to execute a Purchase Order to Sir Lines-A-Lot for street striping and markings with a not to exceed amount of $13,818.40. This action requires a simple majority vote. page 30 DATE: September 1, 2015 TO: Mayor, City Council and City Administrator FROM: Nolan Wall, AICP Planner SUBJECT: Resolution Approving Critical Area Permit at 1920 Glenhill Road BACKGROUND The applicant is seeking to remodel an existing single family dwelling, within the Mississippi River Corridor Critical Area, by removing an existing porch and deck and replacing it with a new porch and deck, and modifying the roof. The project requires a Critical Area Permit before a building permit can be issued. The proposed project will not increase the site’s impervious surface coverage or overall building height and will reduce the existing encroachment towards the river valley. Therefore, the improvements are consistent with the Code requirements for such projects in the Critical Area. The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing at the August 25 meeting; there were no public comments. BUDGET IMPACT N/A RECOMMENDATION The Planning Commission recommended approval of the critical area permit request, with conditions, as described in Planning Case 2015-31. If the City Council desires to implement the recommendation, pass a motion adopting RESOLUTION 2015-68 APPROVING A CRITICAL AREA PERMIT AT 2190 GLENHILL ROAD. This matter requires a simple majority vote. page 31 CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS DAKOTA COUNTY, MINNESOTA RESOLUTION 2015-68 RESOLUTION APPROVING A CRITICAL AREA PERMIT AT 2190 GLENHILL ROAD WHEREAS, Joe Juliette has applied for a critical area permit to remodel an existing single-family residential dwelling as proposed in Planning Case 2015-31 and described in Exhibit A; and WHEREAS, the Mendota Heights Planning Commission held a public hearing on this matter at their regular meeting on August 25, 2015.

CITY COUNCIL CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS _____________________________ Sandra Krebsbach, Mayor ATTEST: ______________________________ Lorri Smith, City Clerk page 32 Item No. 2015-31 MEMORANDUM Date: August 25, 2015 To: Mendota Heights Planning Commission From: Phil Carlson, AICP, Consulting Planner RE: Planning Case 2015-31: Joe Juliette 1920 Glenhill Road Critical Area Permit to demolish existing porch and construct new porch on an existing single family home in the Critical Area Action Deadline: September 29, 2015 (60 days from complete application submittal) INTRODUCTION The applicant wishes to remodel an existing single family home at 1920 Glenhill Road, within the Mississippi River Corridor Critical Area, removing an existing porch and deck and replacing it with a new porch and deck, and modifying the roof. The project requires a Critical Area Permit to demolish a portion of the existing structure and construct a new porch addition within the Critical Area. BACKGROUND • The property is guided LR Low Density Residential in the City’s Land Use Plan. • The property is zoned R-1 One Family Residential. • There is no change in the impervious coverage on the site. • There is no change in the overall height of the structure. ANALYSIS The pertinent provisions of the Critical Area Overlay District that apply to this application are: 12-3-7. Existing Structures and Uses: D. Existing Residential Uses: Residential buildings on parcels developed and built upon prior to June 1, 2003, that otherwise conform to the standards and regulations of the zoning ordinance, and which comply with the standards and regulations of this chapter with the exception of the slope requirements, may be expanded with the addition of attached or detached structures, provided that: page 33 1. The expansion or accessory structure shall encroach no closer toward the river than the existing structure. 2. The expansion or accessory structure shall comply with all other performance standards and regulations of this chapter and the zoning ordinance. 3. The proposed expansion shall be processed in accordance with the procedures for site plan review as listed in section 12-3-17 of this chapter. The proposed addition meets these objectives, since the existing porch and deck jut out significantly from the house and the new porch and deck are recessed back closer to the house, in keeping with the spirit of the regulations. See attached floor plans graphics, which overlay existing and proposed building lines. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend to the City Council approval of the application for Critical Area Permit for the Joe Juliette application with the following conditions: 1.

Of the other calls, two were commercial, five were EMS calls, two were utility checks, and there was one vehicle accident with injuries where extrication was required. Monthly Department Training The monthly department training was a ladder drill. The training focused on the proper use of the ground. Each of the department’s apparatus carries at least three different types of ladders ranging in length from 8’ to 35’. The drill was conducted at the public works facility. When crews reached the roof they dropped rope bags to the firefighter below and the ropes were then used to pull saws and other equipment to the roof. Monthly Squad Training The squad training for the month was boat operations. In the eyes of the NFPA the operation of our boat is considered a technical skill that requires annual training. Crews launched the boat at Rogers Lake Park and trained on boat operation and performing water rescues. page 51 MENDOTA HEIGHTS FIRE DEPARTMENT JULY 2015 MONTHLY REPORT FIRE CALLS NO. 15120 -15143 NUMBER OF CALLS:24 FIRE ALARMS DISPATCHED:NUMBER STRUCTURE CONTENTS MISC.TOTALS TO DATE ACTUAL FIRES Structure - MH Commercial $2,510 Structure - MH Residential $100,000 Structure - Contract Areas $0 Vehicle - MH $9,900 Vehicle - Contract Areas $0 Grass/Brush/No Value MH Grass/Brush/No Value Contract TOTAL MONTHLY FIRE LOSSES MEDICAL Assist 5 $0 $0 $0 Extrication 1 HAZARDOUS SITUATION FIRE LOSS TOTALS MENDOTA HEIGHTS Spills/Leaks Arcing/Shorting ALL FIRES, ALL AREAS (MONTH)$0 $112,410 Chemical Power Line Down 1 MEND.

We are continuing to see large groups of footgolfers visit our course every day, and have booked and hosted many group outings. We have limited the footgolfers to Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from noon to 3:00pm and Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday after noon. This allows us to accommodate our golf leagues and busy Saturday and Sunday mornings. Our Women’s League, Junior League and Golf camps will finish up for the season right before Labor Day. Maintenance Update The weather has been very good for the golf course. The course conditions remain very good and we are still continuing to receive many complements from golfers and footgolfers. During the month of July we stained and painted the maintenance building to bring back the beautiful color of the building. We are planning on aerating the greens on September 28, 2015. Budget Total sales for the month of July were $32,018 and total expenses were $26,874. Total sales for the year through July are $110,616 and expenses are $82,479 resulting in a net profit of $28,137 year to date. We saw a large increase in Clubhouse Wages for July 2015 due to the fact that we ran more Golf Camps, and during July 2015 there were three pay periods. The Clubhouse Wages will be lower in the month of August for 2015 compared to August 2014, which included three pay periods.

Mazzitello, PE, PMP, MBA - Public Works Director/City Engineer SUBJECT: Public Hearing – Vacation of Part of a Drainage and Utility Easement BACKGROUND A Mendota Heights business owner that owns property at 1450 Northland Drive has requested the vacation of a portion of a Drainage and Utility Easement located along the southern boundary of the property, recorded as Document Number 371255, and part of the Inland Industrial Park plat of 1974. The property owner is requesting that 240 feet of the easement be vacated. The request is being made in order for the property owner to re-purpose the building for their own use. The new use will require larger trucks that the current loading dock configuration can accommodate. In order to accommodate the larger trucks, the paved lot needs to be expanded, and that expansion will encroach on the easement being requested for vacation. A diagram of the conceptual expansion and the easement is attached for your reference. Staff has researched the Drainage and Utility Easement referenced and located on the subject property. This portion of the easement is not being utilized by the City or any other utility we have located or identified in our Geographic Information System (GIS) database. In order for the City to vacate a Right-of-Way or Easement, a public hearing must be conducted. After the public hearing, Council may consider vacating the easement described as the north-westernmost 240 feet of the 30-foot wide Drainage and Utility Easement identified by Document Number 371255, located at Lot 2, Block 1, part of the Inland Industrial Park plat in Mendota Heights. All impacted property owners, and all property owners party to the associated subdivision plat have been notified about the public hearing by published and mailed notice. BUDGET IMPACT Other than the staff time to process the vacation, there is no impact to the city budget. The application fee, per the City Fee Schedule, has been paid. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the City Council pass a motion adopting Resolution No. 2015-66, RESOLUTION VACATING A PORTION OF AN EASEMENT AT 1450 NORTHLAND DRIVE UPON REQUEST BY THE PROPERTY OWNER. This action would require a 4/5 majority vote. page 69 CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS DAKOTA COUNTY, MINNESOTA RESOLUTION NO. 2015-66 RESOLUTION VACATNG A (PORTION OF) AN EASEMENT AT 1450 NORTHLAND DRIVE UPON REQUEST BY THE PROPERTY OWNER WHEREAS, a request by the property owner of 1450 Northland Drive in Mendota Heights was received by the City clerk on the 20th day of July 2015; and WHEREAS, the request is that the City Council pursuant to Minnesota Statute §412.851 vacate a drainage and utility easement (a portion thereof) located at the southwest corner of the property legally described as: The north-westernmost 240 feet of the 30-foot wide Drainage and Utility Easement identified by Document Number 371255, located at Lot 2, Block 1, part of the Inland Industrial Park plat in Mendota Heights. WHEREAS, the City Clerk has reviewed and examined the request and determined that the requestor is the valid property owner; and WHEREAS, City staff has reviewed the easement for current and future potential uses by the City and determined that there are no current uses and no apparent future uses of the easement by the City; and WHEREAS, a public hearing to consider the vacation of such easement was held on the 1st day of September, 2015, before the City Council in the City Hall located at 1101 Victoria Curve at 7:00 pm after due published and posted notice had been given, as well as personal mailed notice to all affected property owners by the City Clerk on the 10th day of August, 2014 and all interested and affected persons were given proper notice and an opportunity to voice their concerns and be heard; and WHEREAS, any person, corporation or public body owning or controlling easements contained upon the property vacated, reserves the right to continue maintaining the same or to enter upon such way or portion thereof vacated to maintain, repair, replace or otherwise attend thereto; and WHEREAS, the City Council in its discretion has determined that the vacation will benefit the public interest because it is not detrimental to the health, safety and welfare of the community. NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS, COUNTY OF DAKOTA, MINNESOTA, that such petition for vacation is hereby granted and the (portion of) easement described as follows is hereby vacated: page 70 The north-westernmost 240 feet of the 30-foot wide Drainage and Utility Easement identified by Document Number 371255, located at Lot 2, Block 1, part of the Inland Industrial Park plat in Mendota Heights BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Mayor and City Clerk are hereby authorized to sign all documents necessary to effectuate the intent of this resolution.

The original request in this case was for a nine-foot variance, which was tabled by the Planning Commission at the July 28 meeting. Subsequently, the applicant amended the request for a 3.5-foot variance to construct a walkway/landing to access the rear yard and compliant portion of the proposed deck in the side yard from inside the existing dwelling. The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing at the July 28 and August 25 meetings; there were no public comments. BUDGET IMPACT N/A RECOMMENDATION The Planning Commission recommended approval of the variance request, with conditions, as described in Planning Case 2015-26. If the City Council desires to implement the recommendation, pass a motion adopting RESOLUTION 2015-67 APPROVING A VARIANCE AT 1176 IVY HILL DRIVE. This matter requires a simple majority vote. page 76 CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS DAKOTA COUNTY, MINNESOTA RESOLUTION 2015-67 RESOLUTION APPROVING A VARIANCE AT 1176 IVY HILL DRIVE WHEREAS, Robert Alvarez has applied for a variance to construct a deck as proposed in Planning Case 2015-26 and described in Exhibit A; and WHEREAS, the Mendota Heights Planning Commission held a public hearing on this matter at their regular meetings on July 28 and August 25, 2015. NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Mendota Heights City C ouncil that the variance request as proposed in Planning Case 2015-26 is hereby approved based on the following findings of fact: 1. Construction of the proposed walkway/landing within the required setback to access the rear yard and compliant deck structure in the side yard through an existing patio door is a reasonable use of the property and meets the purpose and intent of the Code and Comprehensive Plan. 2. Due to the subject parcel’s frontage and existing conditions, a practical difficulty is demonstrated in order to construct a walkway/landing within the required rear yard setback to access a compliant deck structure from within the existing dwelling and provide safe access to the rear yard. 3. As proposed, the request would not allow for useable deck space in the rear yard or negatively impact the essential character of the neighborhood. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, by the Mendota Heights City Council that the variance request as proposed in Planning Case 2015-26 is hereby approved with the following conditions: 1. The proposed encroachment would extend no further than 3.5 feet from the northeast corner of the existing dwelling to provide access to the compliant portion of the proposed deck in the side yard. 2. The applicant obtains a building permit. Adopted by the City Council of the City of Mendota Heights this first day of September, 2015. CITY COUNCIL CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS _____________________________ Sandra Krebsbach, Mayor ATTEST: ______________________________ Lorri Smith, City Clerk page 77 DATE: August 25, 2015 TO: Planning Commission FROM: Nolan Wall, AICP Planner SUBJECT: Planning Case 2015-26 Variance Request for Deck APPLICANT: Robert Alvarez PROPERTY ADDRESS: 1176 Ivy Hill Drive ZONING/GUIDED: R-1 One Family Residential/LR Low Density Residential ACTION DEADLINE: November 4, 2015 (extended to 120 days) DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST The applicant is seeking to construct a deck onto an existing single-family dwelling and requires a variance from the rear yard setback requirements for a portion of the structure in the R-1 Zoning District. BACKGROUND The original request in this case was for a nine-foot variance, which was tabled by the Planning Commission at the July 28 meeting with the public hearing remaining open. Based on the previous staff report and Commission discussion, the applicant has since amended the initial variance request to include a reduced rear yard setback encroachment. The original staff report is attached for additional background and analysis. ANALYSIS As proposed in the amended variance request (see attached Site Plan), the applicant is proposing to construct a 3.5-foot-wide walkway/landing to access the rear yard and the compliant portion of the proposed deck in the side yard; therefore reducing the previously-proposed rear yard setback encroachment by over five feet. When considering the variance request for the proposed walkway/landing, 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 applicant’s desire to construct a deck onto the existing single-family residential dwelling is a reasonable use of the property and consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The existing dwelling has an above-grade patio door intended to provide access to the rear yard, which, due to the existing condition, is a safety issue that should be addressed. The portion of the proposed walkway/landing within the required setback is intended only to access the compliant portion of the deck in the side yard and rear yard via steps. As a result of the reduced encroachment and limited use of the walkway/landing within the required setback, the intent of the Code’s rear yard setback standard is met. page 78 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 subject parcel is a long narrow lot and the frontage on Ivy Hill Road resulted in construction of the existing dwelling at the maximum front and rear yard setbacks. Therefore, a practical difficulty is demonstrated in order to construct a walkway/landing within the required rear yard setback to access a compliant deck structure from within the dwelling and address an existing safety issue. As proposed, the amended variance request allows for the least impactful option to address the unique circumstances in this case while meeting the applicant’s needs. As discussed in the previous staff report, the installation of an above-grade patio door without appropriate access to the rear yard is a circumstance created by the applicant, and the resulting safety issue could potentially be addressed by only proposing a rear yard setback variance to construct a compliant landing and steps. However, it would not provide access from the dwelling to the compliant portion of the proposed deck extending into the side yard. 3. The request will not alter the essential character of the neighborhood. The proposed walkway/landing encroaching into the required rear yard setback abuts the side yard of the adjacent property to the north at 1167 Dodd Road. As proposed, the 3.5-foot-wide walkway/landing is intended only to provide access to the rear yard and side yard deck and will not negatively impact the neighboring property due to the proposed reduced encroachment and limited use capabilities. ALTERNATIVES 1. Recommend approval of the amended variance request to allow construction of a 3.5-foot-wide walkway/landing from the patio door to access the rear yard and compliant portion of the proposed deck extending into the side yard, based on the attached findings of fact, with conditions. OR 2. Recommend denial of the original variance request for construction of the proposed deck and the amended variance request for construction of the proposed walkway/landing within the required rear yard setback, based on the attached findings of fact. OR 3. Table the request. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Based on the amended variance request, staff recommends approval of the 3.5-foot rear yard setback variance as proposed by the applicant in this case, based on the attached findings of fact, with the following conditions (Alternative #1): 1. The proposed encroachment would extend no further than 3.5 feet from the northeast corner of the existing dwelling to provide access to the compliant portion of the proposed deck in the side yard. 2. The applicant obtains a building permit. MATERIALS INCLUDED FOR REVIEW 1. Revised Site Plan – dated August 17 2. Staff report and application materials provided in the July 28 Planning Commission packet page 79 FINDINGS OF FACT FOR APPROVAL 3.5-foot Rear Yard Setback Variance Request 1176 Ivy Hill Drive The following Findings of Fact are made in support of approval of the amended variance request: 1. Construction of the proposed walkway/landing within the required setback to access the rear yard and compliant deck structure in the side yard through an existing patio door is a reasonable use of the property and meets the purpose and intent of the Code and Comprehensive Plan. 2. Due to the subject parcel’s frontage and existing conditions, a practical difficulty is demonstrated in order to construct a walkway/landing within the required rear yard setback to access a compliant deck structure from within the existing dwelling and provide safe access to the rear yard. 3. As proposed, the request would not allow for useable deck space in the rear yard or negatively impact the essential character of the neighborhood. page 80 FINDINGS OF FACT FOR DENIAL Rear Yard Setback Variance Requests 1176 Ivy Hill Drive The following Findings of Fact are made in support of denial of the proposed variance requests: 1. Reasonable use of the property can be made without the need for a variance. 2. Alternatives exist to reduce the proposed encroachment into the rear yard and provide safe access to the existing patio door. 3. The proposed encroachment does not meet the intent of the Code by decreasing the buffer area between the adjoining properties and would negatively impact the essential character of the neighborhood. page 81 2 6 8 2 6 6 4 5 5 1 3 5 9 4 65 11 2 6 70 4 2 3 4 0 7 26 8 100 129 2 6 6 2 6 6 70 1167 1176 1161 604 1155608 1170 IV Y H I L L D R DOD D R D Planning Case 2015-261176 Ivy Hill Drive City of Mendota Heights030 SCALE IN FEET GIS Map Disclaimer:This data is for informational purposes only and should not be substituted for a true title search, property appraisal, plat,survey, or for zoning verification.

BACKGROUND The subject parcel is approximately 21,000 square feet and contains a single-family dwelling. The property is zoned R-1 One Family Residential and guided for low density residential development. While not updated on the attached aerial map, a portion of right-of-way along Ivy Hill Drive was vacated, which increased the lot size prior to construction of the existing dwelling. The applicant intends to construct a deck wrapping around the west and northwest corners of the existing dwelling into the side and rear yards. As proposed, the portion of the deck within the rear yard requires a variance from the applicable setback requirements in the R-1 District. The existing dwelling was constructed in 2006. Between 2004 and 2005, the configuration of potential building pads on the subject parcel was discussed at length by the Planning Commission and City Council in a series of planning applications containing various requests. According to available minutes and application files, and without including a detailed summary of the discussion and background on the requests, the actions included: 1. Case 2004-13: Subdivision and variances for street frontage and front yard setback • Proposed lot reconfiguration for construction of a new dwelling on the subject parcel and variance from the 100-foot lot width requirements along Dodd Road • Denied by the Planning Commission and City Council (Resolution 2004-47) 2. Case 2004-44: Variance for rear yard setback for proposed dwelling • Proposed variance to allow 10-foot rear yard setback • Lot width variance was recommended for approval by the Planning Commission • Both requests denied by the City Council (Resolution 2004-108) page 86 3. Case 2005-11: Variance for rear yard setback for proposed dwelling • Proposed variance to allow 10-foot rear yard setback • Not reviewed by the Planning Commission • Denied by the City Council (Resolution 2005-18) ANALYSIS Comprehensive Plan The subject parcel is guided LR Low Density Residential in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan. The applicant’s request to construct a deck on the property is consistent with the continued use as a single-family dwelling. Variance The R-1 District’s required rear yard setback is 30 feet or 20% of the average lot depth, whichever is greater. In this case, due to the orientation of the existing dwelling fronting Ivy Hill Drive, the required rear yard setback is 30 feet. As a result of the aforementioned denials for a rear yard setback variance, the existing dwelling was issued a building permit for construction in its current location. Based on the existing conditions, but without an as-built survey, it can be assumed it was approved to be constructed in compliance with the applicable Code requirements, including within the required setbacks. However, attached decks are considered to be part of the principal structure, therefore the same setback standards apply. As proposed, the deck would encroach nine feet into the 30-foot setback and requires a rear yard setback variance. When considering the variance request for the proposed deck in this case, 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 applicant’s desire to construct a deck onto the existing single-family dwelling is a reasonable use of the property. However, the proposed encroachment into the rear yard is excessive and could be reduced or eliminated to still allow for reasonable use of the property in compliance with the Code requirements. The intent of the rear yard setback is to discourage crowding and maintain open space between dwellings, which is compromised by the proposed project in this case and therefore does not meet the intent of the Code. 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. According to the applicant, the existing patio door facing the rear yard and the proposed deck were included in the approved building plans for the existing dwelling, which is implied as both a practical difficulty and unique circumstance in this case. Staff was not able to locate those plans; the city is only required to maintain residential building permits for five years after expiration, which is one year after issuance. Furthermore, the installation of patio doors with access to the rear yard above the existing grade is a circumstance created by the applicant, and the resulting safety issue can potentially be addressed with a revised variance request that reduces the proposed encroachment. The portion of the deck extending approximately 13 feet into the side yard is compliant due to an over 130- foot setback from the side yard property boundary line. However, the proposed deck in this location can only be accessed from the existing patio doors along the north side of the dwelling without constructing steps accessing the side yard. As a result, staff contends there are at least three options to reduce the proposed encroachment and/or eliminate the variance request: page 87 A. Consider a three-foot variance to allow construction of a landing/walkway from the patio door to the portion of the proposed deck extending into the side yard. This option allows access to the compliant portion of the proposed deck in the side yard from inside the house and decreases the excessive encroachment being requested in this case. According to the building code, three feet is the minimum width of a landing required for a walkway. In this scenario, staff would further recommend the three-foot encroachment extend no further than three feet from the northeast corner of the existing dwelling. B. Consider a three-foot variance to allow construction of a landing/steps to the existing patio door and eliminate the portion of the proposed deck encroaching into the rear yard. This option addresses the safety concern raised by the applicant regarding access to the existing patio door. A compliant landing at least three long and steps could be constructed to provide safe access to the rear yard from the existing dwelling. However, it would not provide access from the dwelling to the compliant portion of the proposed deck extending into the side yard. C. Eliminate the portion of the proposed deck encroaching into the rear yard and construct steps to access the compliant portion from the side yard. This option does not require a variance and, in staff’s opinion, still allows for reasonable use of the property by providing access to the compliant portion of the deck extending into the side yard. As with Option B, it would not provide access from the dwelling to the portion of the proposed deck extending into the side yard or address the potential safety issue. 3. The request will not alter the essential character of the locality. The compliant portion of the proposed deck extending into the side yard will not alter the essential character of the neighborhood. However, the proposed deck’s nine-foot encroachment into the rear yard will decrease the distance between the abutting property to the north at 1167 Dodd Road. Based on aerial maps, it appears the dwelling is constructed near the 10-foot minimum side yard setback line. Due to the subject parcel’s frontage on Ivy Hill Drive, the existing condition already provides for the minimum separation distance of 40 feet between both dwellings; any further encroachment should be carefully considered in order to ensure appropriate buffering between the properties. ALTERNATIVES 1. Recommend denial of the nine-foot rear yard setback variance request for construction of the proposed deck, based on the attached findings of fact. OR 2. Recommend approval of a three-foot rear yard setback variance request to allow construction of a landing/walkway from the patio doors to the compliant portion of the proposed deck extending into the side yard, as proposed for consideration by staff and acceptable to the applicant, based on the attached findings of fact, with conditions. OR 3. Recommend approval of a three-foot rear yard setback variance request to allow construction of a landing/steps to the existing patio doors and eliminate the portion of the proposed deck encroaching into the rear yard, as proposed for consideration by staff and acceptable to the applicant, based on the attached findings of fact, with conditions. OR page 88 4. Recommend approval of a nine-foot rear yard setback variance request for construction of the proposed deck, as proposed by the applicant, based on the findings of fact that the use of the property is reasonable, a practical difficulty has been established based on unique circumstances not created by the applicant, and the essential character of the neighborhood is not altered; with the condition that the applicant obtain a building permit. OR 5. Table the request. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends denial of the proposed nine-foot rear yard setback variance as proposed by the applicant, based on the attached findings of fact (Alternative #1). As noted in this report, there are other design options that would allow for a reasonable use of the property with a reduced encroachment or no variance. If acceptable to the applicant, staff is supportive of a recommendation approving a reduced encroachment to allow a three-foot rear yard setback variance as included in Alternative #2 (Option A), based on the attached findings of fact, with the following conditions: 1. The three-foot encroachment would extend no further than three feet from the northeast corner of the existing dwelling to provide access to the compliant portion of the proposed deck in the side yard. 2. The applicant obtains a building permit. If acceptable to the applicant, staff is also supportive of a recommendation approving a reduced encroachment to allow a three-foot rear yard setback variance as included in Alternative #3 (Option B), based on the attached findings of fact, with the following conditions: 1. The three-foot encroachment would be no wider than the existing patio door, or the minimum width as determined by the Building Official. 2. The applicant obtains a building permit. MATERIALS INCLUDED FOR REVIEW 1. Aerial site map 2. Site photos 3. Planning applications, including supporting materials page 89 FINDINGS OF FACT FOR DENIAL Nine-foot Rear Yard Setback Variance Request 1176 Ivy Hill Drive The following Findings of Fact are made in support of denial of the proposed request: 1. Reasonable use of the property can be made without the need for a variance. 2. Alternatives exist to reduce the proposed encroachment into the rear yard and provide safe access to the existing patio door. 3. The proposed nine-foot encroachment does not meet the intent of the Code by decreasing the buffer area between the adjoining properties and would negatively impact the essential character of the neighborhood. page 90 FINDINGS OF FACT FOR APPROVAL Three-foot Rear Yard Setback Variance Request – Option A 1176 Ivy Hill Drive The following Findings of Fact are made in support of approval of the alternative request, referred to as “Option A” in the staff report: 1. Construction of a three-foot landing/walkway within the required rear yard setback to access a compliant deck structure through an existing patio door is a reasonable use of the property. 2. The subject parcel is a long narrow lot and the frontage on Ivy Hill Road resulted in construction of the existing dwelling at the maximum front and rear yard setbacks; therefore a practical difficulty is demonstrated in order to construct a walkway/landing within the required rear yard setback to access a compliant deck structure from within the existing dwelling. 3. The alternative request reduces the proposed encroachment by six feet and would not allow for a useable deck space in the rear yard or negatively impact the essential character of the neighborhood. page 91 FINDINGS OF FACT FOR APPROVAL Three-foot Rear Yard Setback Variance Request – Option B 1176 Ivy Hill Drive The following Findings of Fact are made in support of approval of the alternative request, referred to as “Option B” in the staff report: 1. Construction of a three-foot landing/steps to the existing patio door within the required rear yard setback to provide safe access to the dwelling/backyard is a reasonable use of the property. 2. The subject parcel is a long narrow lot and the frontage on Ivy Hill Road resulted in construction of the existing dwelling at the maximum front and rear yard setbacks; therefore a practical difficulty is demonstrated in order to construct a landing/steps within the required rear yard setback to provide safe access to the dwelling/backyard. 3. The alternative request eliminates the proposed deck’s encroachment into the required rear yard and would not negatively impact the essential character of the neighborhood. page 92 page 93 page 94 page 95 page 96 page 97 DATE: September 1, 2015 TO: Mayor, City Council and City Administrator FROM: Nolan Wall, AICP Planner SUBJECT: Resolution Approving Conditional Use Permit and Variances at 1400 Commerce Drive BACKGROUND The applicant is seeking to establish a warehouse and distribution facility at 1400 Commerce Drive, which is currently vacant. The property is zoned Industrial and contains a legal nonconforming outdoor storage yard. Based on information supplied by the applicant, the use is considered a permitted nonmanufacturing use in the Industrial District. Therefore, the Code allows outdoor storage and display of materials and equipment by conditional use permit. As a result, the proposed project to expand the existing outdoor storage yard requires the following approvals: 1. Conditional Use Permit for expanding an existing outdoor storage yard. 2. Variance to allow the outdoor storage yard to locate within 1,500 feet of a residentially zoned area. 3. Variance to store material in a fenced open air yard instead of the required three-sided, covered structures. The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing at the August 25 meeting; there were no public comments. BUDGET IMPACT N/A RECOMMENDATION The Planning Commission recommended approval of the conditional use permit and variance requests, with conditions, as described in Planning Case 2015-32. If the City Council desires to implement the recommendation, pass a motion adopting RESOLUTION 2015-69 APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AND VARIANCES AT 1400 COMMERCE DRIVE. This matter requires a simple majority vote. page 98 CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS DAKOTA COUNTY, MINNESOTA RESOLUTION 2015-69 RESOLUTION APPROVING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AND VARIANCES AT 1400 COMMERCED DRIVE WHEREAS, HD Supply – Construction and Industrial White Cap has applied for a conditional use permit and variances to expand an existing outdoor storage yard as proposed in Planning Case 2015-32 and described in Exhibit A; and WHEREAS, the Mendota Heights Planning Commission held a public hearing on this matter at their regular meeting on August 25, 2015. NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Mendota Heights City Council that the conditional use permit and variance requests as proposed in Planning Case 2015-32 are hereby approved based on the following findings of fact: 1.

CITY COUNCIL CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS _____________________________ Sandra Krebsbach, Mayor ATTEST: ______________________________ Lorri Smith, City Clerk page 99 Item No. 2015-32 MEMORANDUM Date: August 25, 2015 To: Mendota Heights Planning Commission From: Phil Carlson, AICP, Consulting Planner RE: Planning Case 2015-32: HD Supply Construction & Industrial – White Cap 1400 Commerce Drive 1. Conditional Permit to expand existing outdoor storage yard 2. Variance to allow outdoor storage within 1,500’ of residential zone 3. Variance to allow screened open air storage of material Action Deadline: October 4, 2015 (60 days from complete application submittal) INTRODUCTION The applicant, HD Supply Constructions & Industrial – White Cap (HD Supply), wishes to establish a warehouse and distribution facility at 1400 Commerce Drive. HD Supply warehouses and distributes products used in the construction industry through jobsite delivery, direct-ship options and/or will call. The products typically include erosion control supplies, building materials, tools, jobsite and safety supplies to large and medium sized contractors. The property is currently vacant and zoned I Industrial and has a smaller, legal non-conforming outdoor storage yard. The project requires: • Conditional use permit for expanding an existing outdoor storage yard. • Variance to allow the outdoor storage yard to locate within 1,500 feet of a residentially zoned area • Variance to store material in a fenced open air yard instead of the required three-sided, covered structures ANALYSIS Based on the information supplied by the applicant, the use is considered a permitted nonmanufacturing use in the Industrial District. City code Section 12-1G-2: Conditional Uses states, “within the I industrial district, no outdoor storage and display of materials and equipment accessory to landscaping and building design and construction shall be used except by conditional use permit”. page 100 1. In order for a conditional use permit to be granted, “no storage and display shall be located on any parcel that is within one thousand five hundred feet (1,500') from any residentially zoned property, measured from the closest point of the lot lines”. The objective of this standard is to make sure residents are kept undisturbed by the uses of the property in terms of noise, dust, view, and other adverse impacts. In this case, the residential area in question that is within 1,500’ from the HD Supply property is the Acacia Park Cemetery, where no residents are present. In addition, the site is visually blocked by other properties from the cemetery property. Therefore, granting a variance in this case will cause minimal adverse impact to the residentially zoned property. 2. The conditional permit also calls for “All storage and display shall be located under three (3) sided, covered structures, with the exception of landscape plant materials and trucks or equipment as shown on a specific and detailed site plan”. The objective of this standard is to keep the site tidy in appearance and to minimize problems such as those caused by material run off. The three sides in the standard assume two sides and rear, plus top (covered). In this case, the material stored on site will be screened from view by a 6’ tall chain link fence with slats completely surrounding the site. All material will be stored inside the fence and piled less than 6’ in height. The material stored on site will be already packaged or of a nature that does not require coverage or containment. Examples of the materials include rebar, vapor barrier, foam boards, wire mesh and drain tiles. Similarly screened outdoor storage can be found in nearby neighboring properties. It appears that a variance to this standard on this site will not increase the risk of material run off or create undesirable views from outside of the property. According to City Code 12-1D-13-2: Additional Requirements for All B and I Districts, the opacity of “required screening or buffering may be achieved with fences, walls, earth berms, hedges or other landscape materials. The screen shall provide a minimum opacity of ninety percent (90%) during all seasons”. HD Supply is proposing to use a chain link fence with slats for screening the storage site. No specification was provided as to the opacity of the particular model to be used. Our research indicates a typical chain link fence with slats offers opacity in the 75% range, so it may not meet the city’s standard. HD Supply has indicated willingness to use fencing material preferred by the city. Some neighboring properties use wood fence that offer 100% opacity, which may be a better choice here, at least on the front and side yards facing the street and neighboring property. page 101 From City Code 12-1L-5: A variance shall only be recommended when the planning commission finds: 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. 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. 3. The request will not alter the essential character of the neighborhood. As discussed in previous paragraphs, the variance required for the 1,500’ rule has a special circumstance in this case because the residential zone has no actual residents. So the strict application of the standard would deprive the applicant of the proposed expansion of the existing outdoor storage yard while not eliminating any real potential adverse impact to any city residents. The requirement for 3-side covered storage for all materials generally would be intended for easy to disburse material such as dirt, liquids, landscaping materials. This site will store large building materials usually not requiring structures or are bagged and therefore not likely to blow around or leak off site. Strict application of the standard will impose unnecessary burden to the applicant and may restrict the reasonable use of property while no public welfare issues exist. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend to the City Council approval of the application for Conditional Use Permit and Variances for the HD Supply Application with the following conditions: 1. Materials stored on site will not exceed a height of 6’. 2. All materials will be packaged or self-contained. No loose or bulk materials. 3. A wood fence that provides a minimum of 90% opacity during all seasons will be provided on the front and side yards. REQUESTED ACTION Following the public hearing and discussion, the Planning Commission may consider the following actions: page 102 1. Recommend approval of the Conditional Use Permit and Variances, based on the attached findings of fact, with conditions. OR 2. Recommend denial of the Conditional Use Permit and Variances, based on the findings of fact that the proposed expansion of the existing outdoor storage area does not meet the purpose and intent of the Code and reasonable use of the property can be made without a variance. OR 3. Table the request, pending additional information from staff or others. MATERIALS INCLUDED FOR REVIEW The following exhibits are attached for your review: 1. Aerial Location Map 2.

The operation of HD Supply Construction & Industrial – White Cap is a wholesale distributor to construction professionals in the Commercial, Residential, and Industrial building industries. White Cap customers are professional contractors with established accounts rather than the general public. We warehouse and distribute our product through jobsite delivery, direct ship options, and/or will-call. We are not a retail store. Shipments are received in the warehouse on daily basis to replenish the inventory. White Cap maintains a large inventory of products for use in the construction industry. Our facilities typically maintain an inventory of and distribute erosion control supplies, building materials, tools, jobsite and safety supplies to large and medium sized contractors. This property is currently vacant and our business will bring 9 new jobs to Mendota Heights. We are requesting a Conditional Use Permit to expand the existing non-conforming outdoor storage yard. The expanded yard will improve the look of the property as the outdoor activity for the business will be screened and fenced in. The site plan with this application shows the area of the existing yard and the area we would like to expand to. All of the area within the desired yard area is already paved and no land disturbance is needed or landscape removal. No parking is effected and all circulation to enter the site and access all the rear doors and docks are maintained. We are asking for the expanded space for more efficiency for our trucks to get to materials that are stored in the yard as well as the ability to secure our trucks on the property overnight as the current yard does not provide that. The site plans shows 3 spaces in the dock area that are striped, which will be for our large trucks to park. We plan to use 6 feet high chain link fence with slats for screening to enclose the rear area and no material would be stored over the fence. Photos are attached of the fence and slats to show the look of the enclosure. If the City would prefer a different type of slat or a wooden fence, we will change to that. Please stipulate which fence type is preferred. We are requesting a Variance on two out of the twelve requirements for outdoor storage and display of materials: 1. Item #C - No storage and display shall be located on any parcel that is within one thousand five hundred feet (1,500') from any residentially zoned property, measured from the closest point of the lot lines. (Map attached showing a small portion of R-1 with 1500 feet, note that this is a cemetery and not homes) 2. Item #I - All storage and display shall be located under three (3) sided, covered structures, with the exception of landscape plant materials and trucks or equipment as shown on a specific and detailed site plan. _____________________________________________________________________________________ page 107 Questions Addressed for Variance: 1. In your opinion, does the proposal put the property to use in a reasonable manner? Yes, it meets items A through H and J through L of 12- 1G- 2 for the outdoor storage and display of materials and equipment accessory to landscaping and building design and construction requirements described in our designated zone 12G for our permitted use. All material will be screened from the road and neighboring properties 2. Please describe the circumstances unique to the property (not created by you). For item C, we understand the impact our use of this property has on residential neighbors and the manager of this location has visited the area that falls with the 1,500 feet area that is zoned residential, which is a cemetery, and confirmed that the yard area and the building is not visible from there. Two other buildings block the view completely and also serve as a buffer for any possible noise. For item I, all of our material that goes in the yard are self-contained so no cover is needed over the yard area. The typical items we store are various sizes of rebar, vapor barrier, foam boards, wire mesh, and drain tiles. Nothing will be stacked higher than the fence so everything would be fully contained and screened. 3. In your opinion, will the variance, if granted, fit with the character of the neighborhood? Yes, MN DOT and Bituminous Roadways are fellow businesses in the park that have outdoor storage with a screened fence just as we are requesting for ours to be. No businesses in the immediate neighborhood have a covered structure for storage, therefore ours would fit in to not have it as well. Attached are some photos of existing White Cap branch in Elk Grove Village, Illinois with a large fenced-in storage yard (pictures specifically of outdoor yard area). This location is across the street from O’Hare Airport and also from a Wyndham Hotel and needed special approval and the location has never received a complaint about the yard appearance. These photos show how we store in a screened fence with product not stored above the fence line. Jeremiah George, the District Manager for this area will attend the City meeting for any questions or additional information. Thank you for your time and consideration, Bobbi Curry Senior Manager of Construction HD Supply _________________________________________________________________________________________________ page 108 page 109 page 110 page 111 page 112 page 113 W S 1 - N W S 1 - N W S 1 - N W S 1 - N 4 2 x 1 0 8 4 2 x 1 0 8 4 2 x 1 0 8 4 2 x 1 0 8 4 2 x 1 0 8 4 2 x 1 0 8 4 2 x 1 0 8 4 2 x 1 0 8 4 2 x 1 0 8 4 2 x 1 0 8 4 2 x 1 0 8 4 2 x 1 0 8 3 6 x 9 6 4 2 x 1 0 8 4 2 x 1 0 8 4 2 x 1 0 8 3 6 x 1 0 8 4 2 x 1 0 8 3 6 x 1 0 8 3 6 x 9 6 4 2 x 1 0 8 C O M M E R C E D R I V E P I L O T K N O B R O A D LOADINGDOCKS P O N D 30' ROLLING GATEEXISTING STORAGE YARDTO BE REMOVED PROPOSED FENCEDSTORAGE YARD = 19,821 SF159'-9"114'-6"43'-6"90'-7" EXISTING PARKING A A SETBACK 6250 BROOK HOLLOW PKWY.

A wetland delineation report for the Lemay Lake Shores Property was approved by city council in October of 2014. During an inspection of the site, staff noticed disturbances to two wetlands that were identified in the delineation report. Site meetings were held with Dakota County SWCD, DNR & the MPCA. The consensus was to have the developer submit an application for the unauthorized work in a wetland boundary. Wetland 2 and Wetland 3 on the site have been impacted/filled. The stated reason for filling the two wetlands was to cap them as they had been used as a garbage dump for the cemetery. The application report submitted by Ryland Homes consultant Kjolhaug Environmental identify the two wetlands as being low quality and posing a public safety hazard due to their use as a garbage dump. The developer is proposing to keep the wetlands capped and has secured wetland credits from an approved wetland bank. The wetlands are being replaced at a 2:1 ratio. The wetland bank credits are of a higher value and function wetland within the same Minnesota river watershed but not located in Mendota Heights. Wetland Application attached. BUDGET IMPACT None, this process is a judicial requirement of the city. If council approves the application a Notice of Decision will be sent to respective agencies (Dakota County SWCD, BWSR, LMRWMO, Army Corps.) The previously listed agencies have not submitted comments as this was the course of action discussed during the field meetings. page 122 RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that council approve and accept the application as submitted by Kjolhaug Environmental Services Company, Inc. on behalf of Ryland Homes and direct staff to issue the Notice of Decision on the report extension. page 123 26105 Wild Rose Lane, Shorewood, Minnesota 55331, Phone: 952-401-8757, Fax: 952-401-8798 Memorandum Date: July 31, 2015 To: Ryan Ruzek, City of Mendota Heights Cc: Shawn Wenzel, Ryland Homes From: Melissa Barrett, Kjolhaug Environmental Services Company (KES) Re: After-the-Fact Wetland Permit Application Lemay Shores, Mendota Heights, MN The Lemay Shores development site (formerly called Lemay Lake Site) is located in the NE ¼ of Section 34, Township 28N, Range 23W, City of Mendota Heights, Dakota County, Minnesota. The approximately 80-acre site is located south of Lake Augusta, east of Lemay Lake, and west of Resurrection Cemetery, less than a quarter mile north of the junction of Lemay Lake Road and Mendota Heights Road (Figure 1). The site was originally delineated by Kjolhaug Environmental Services (KES) in October 2006 and wetland boundaries were reviewed and approved by the LGU (Local Government Unit) at that time. The site was re-visited by KES in 2014 to assess site conditions and re-check previously delineated wetland boundaries for any changes. KES submitted a memo documenting that land use on the site had not significantly changed and requested and extension of the 2006 wetland delineation approval. An extension was granted by the City of Mendota Heights in August of 2014 (Appendix A). Approved wetland boundaries are shown on Figure 2 and Appendix B. Recent Wetland Fill Since the time of the 2014 delineation extension, Wetland 2 and Wetland 3 on the site have been impacted/filled. The reason for filling these two wetlands and their immediate surrounding areas was to cap them, as they had been used as a garbage dump for the cemetery (former landowner of the site) for many years. page 124 Page 2 of 2 Avoidance and Minimization Simply cleaning out garbage from the wetlands (wetland restoration; avoidance) is not possible as the garbage dump encompasses more than these two wetland areas. Furthermore, these wetlands were low quality and posed a public safety hazard due to their use as a garbage dump. Impact replacement via wetland banking is certain to provide an increase in wetland functions and values as compared to the existing wetlands (i.e. the impacts meet sequencing flexibility as outlined in MN Rule 8420.0520 Subp. 7a. Sequencing Flexibility). Because the entire area of Wetland 2 and Wetland 3 were impacted with fill, impact minimization is not possible. Wetland Replacement Plan To compensate for after-the-fact-wetland impacts the applicant proposes to purchase Standard Wetland Credit (SWC) from an available wetland bank within the same major watershed (Watershed 33 – Minnesota River) and Bank Service Area (BSA9) as the impacted wetlands at a 2:1 replacement ratio.

Staff identified the Mendota Road Neighborhood Improvements as a 2016 street reconstruction and rehabilitation project in the 2013-2017 Street Improvement Plan (SIP). As identified in the 2013-2017 SIP, the proposed street to be reconstructed is the rural section of Mendota Road (previously Hwy 110 Frontage Road) from Delaware Avenue to Oak Street in Mendota Heights. This street has deteriorated to the point where it is no longer cost effective to patch. Under the circumstances, the questions that need to be resolved are related to the design details of the street as opposed to whether or not the street should be reconstructed. The proposed streets to be rehabilitated, as identified in the 2013-2017 SIP, are High Ridge Circle, Sibley Court, and Warrior Drive. Based on our observations as well as our pavement management system, these streets have deteriorated to the point where it is no longer cost effective to patch the street and rehabilitation is necessary. Residents on these streets were not surveyed although staff has received several telephone inquiries as to when resurfacing will take place. The preparation of a feasibility report for the Mendota Road Neighborhood Improvements Project (201507) was authorized by the Mendota Heights City Council by adopting Resolution 2015-32 at the City Council meeting held on May 19, 2015. The streets to be rehabilitated have concrete curb and gutters so a pavement replacement is proposed. Street rehabilitation typically includes removing and replacing the existing bituminous surface with a new bituminous surface, curb and gutter repair, and catch basin repair. Before staff presents the feasibility report to the city council, a neighborhood meeting will be held to discuss possible design issues for the proposed project. A copy of the feasibility report is attached to this memo. page 128 Street Reconstruction – Mendota Road Mendota Road was constructed in 1970. Concrete curb and gutters were installed on a portion of the street and the roadway widths currently measure 24 feet from edge of pavement to edge of pavement, and 26 feet from face of curb to edge of pavement in the areas were curb was installed. The pavement cross-section consists of a 4.5” bituminous surface over a 13” aggregate base. Sanitary sewer and water main were constructed on this street during the original project in 1970 and existing storm sewer on a part of the road during the Town Center project. Proposed improvements for Mendota Road will include the reclamation of the existing bituminous roadway and the placing of a 3” bituminous base course and a 2” bituminous wear course over the reclaimed pavement material, new curb and gutter installation, storm sewer extension and existing curb and gutter and catch basin repair. Street Rehabilitation – High Ridge Circle, Sibley Court and Warrior Drive Warrior Drive was constructed in 1970 and High Ridge Circle, Sibley Court were constructed in 1988. Warrior Drive has a pavement cross-section consisting of a 3” bituminous surface over a 6” aggregate base. Concrete curb and gutter was installed on this street and the roadway widths currently measures 44 feet from face of curb to face of curb. High Ridge Circle and Sibley Court have a pavement cross-section consisting of a 3.5” bituminous surface over a 6” aggregate base. Concrete curb and gutter was installed on the streets and the roadway widths currently measure 33 feet from face of curb to face of curb. Storm sewer, sanitary sewer, and water main were also constructed on these streets in 1970 and 1988. Proposed improvements for Warrior Drive will include the reclamation of the existing bituminous roadway and the placing of a 2.5” bituminous base course and a 1.5” bituminous wear course over the reclaimed pavement material, curb and gutter repair, and catch basin repair. It will also include construction of a concrete median and a mini roundabout at the intersection of Warrior Drive and Henry Sibley High School entrance. High Ridge Circle and Sibley Court will include the reclamation of the existing bituminous roadway and the placing of a 2.5” bituminous base course and a 1.5” bituminous wear course over the reclaimed pavement material, curb and gutter repair, and catch basin repair. Trail Improvements Proposed improvements to the existing Brookside Lane to Laura Court trail include overlaying the existing bituminous surface with 2” bituminous pavement. (Appendix E) Pedestrian curb ramps will be constructed at the each end of the trail, as well as on every crosswalk location on Mendota Road trail with truncated dome detectible warning systems in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Preventative Maintenance- Fog Seal Coating of the bike trail between the Dodd Road and Delaware Avenue Proposed improvements for the bike trail between the Dodd Road and Delaware Avenue will include a fog seal. Fog seals are used to delay weathering of the pavement, waterproof the pavement surface, and improve the pavement’s ability to keep water from penetrating the base course or subgrade, and reduce raveling. page 129 Preventative Maintenance - Seal Coating of the Bunker Hills Neighborhood Streets and the Town Center approaches Proposed maintenance treatment for Arvin Drive, Freeway Road, Hilltop Court, Hilltop Road, Knob Road, Linden Street, Market Street, Maple Street, North Freeway Road, Ridge Place, South Freeway Road, South Lane, Valley Curve, Valley Curve Alley, Wachtler Avenue, and Willow Lane will include the chip seal coating which will consider distributing bituminous oil, or liquid asphalt, on the street surface, application of an aggregate cover, and using the pneumatic roller to reorient or seat the aggregate particles and tighten the rock matrix. After the asphalt cures, the excess aggregate is removed by sweeping so the seal coat provides the street with a new water proof surface and uniform look. BUDGET IMPACT The attached report indicates the estimated costs for the project, along with preliminary assessment estimates. At the end of the feasibility report, a project financing summary is included to show project cost splits and funding sources. The total estimated cost of the project is $1,955,246. Street improvement projects are proposed to be assessed to the benefiting property owners. Pursuant to the City’s Street Rehabilitation and Reconstruction Policy, the benefiting properties should be assessed 50% of the street rehabilitation costs. The following tables show the estimated unit assessments based on the City policy and proposed unit assessments that are being recommended by staff.

page 134 Feasibility Report Page 3 Project No. 201507 INTRODUCTION Authorization The preparation of this report was authorized by the Mendota Heights City Council by adopting Resolution 2015-32 at the City Council meeting held on May 19, 2015. This street reconstruction and rehabilitation project has been designated as City Project No.201507. The Improvements to High Ridge Circle, Sibley Court, Warrior Drive, and Mendota Road (previously Hwy 110 Frontage Road) from Delaware Avenue to Oak Street in Mendota Heights are located in the Section 25, Township 28, Range 23. Scope This report addresses the feasibility of reconstructing the rural section of Mendota Road (previously Hwy 110 Frontage Road) from Delaware Avenue to Oak Street and rehabilitating High Ridge Circle, Sibley Court, and Warrior Drive. Pedestrian improvements were also studied as to rehabilitating the existing trail along Mendota Road and Trail that connects Laura Lane and Laura Court. Opinions of estimated costs for the associated improvements are noted herein and project funding strategies have been developed in this report. Location The proposed project location area is shown in Appendix A. page 135 Feasibility Report Page 4 Project No. 201507 EXISTING CONDITIONS Streets High Ridge Circle, Sibley Court, Mendota Road and Warrior Drive Mendota Road and Warrior Drive were constructed in 1970 under Project Number 6928 as a State Project (SP) 1918-55. Concrete curb and gutters were installed only along a portion of one side of Mendota Road and on both sides of Warrior Drive. Mendota Road typical section varies and the road width is between 27 and 30 feet. Warrior Drive measures 44 feet from face of curb to face of curb. Mendota Road has a pavement cross-section consisting of a 4.5” bituminous surface over a 13” aggregate base. Warrior Drive has a pavement cross-section consisting of a 3” bituminous surface over a 6” aggregate base. Sanitary sewer and water main along Mendota Road and Warrior Drive were also constructed on these streets as part of Project Number 6928. Storm Sewer is constructed along Warrior drive and only partially along Mendota Road. High Ridge Circle and Sibley Court were constructed in 1988 under Project Number 8711. High Ridge Circle and Sibley Court have a pavement cross-section consisting of a 3.5” bituminous surface over a 6” aggregate base. These streets currently have a failing bituminous surface and are in relatively poor condition. All of these streets appear to be near the end of their useful life and the cost to maintain and repair the roadways is steadily increasing. These streets no longer meet the City’s minimum design standards and it is no longer cost effective to continue to repair these streets. Based on the extent of fatigue cracking, a rehabilitation of High Ridge Circle, Sibley Court, and Warrior Drive is recommended by the pavement management system. Street rehabilitation will consist of reclaiming the existing bituminous roadway and the placing of a new bituminous surface over the reclaimed pavement material. Pavement cores will be obtained for these streets to verify the existing street cross-section and that the material will be suitable for pavement reclamation. Overlaying or seal coating the existing pavement is no longer a feasible alternative. The Mendota Road pavement section consists of a 4.5” bituminous surface over 5” Class 6 aggregate base and 8” Class 3 aggregate base. The pavement condition varies along Mendota Road, but it is generally in very poor condition, and appears to be near the end of its useful life while the cost to maintain and repair the roadway is steadily increasing. Overlaying or seal coating the pavement is no longer feasible. Based on the extent of fatigue cracking, our pavement management system recommends reconstruction of Mendota Road. Mendota Road no longer meets minimum design standards and is no longer cost effective to continue to repair. Sanitary Sewer The sanitary sewer located within the limits of the project site was cleaned and televised as part of a Mendota Heights City project in 2012. Overall, the pipes throughout the proposed project site are in good condition with very few instances of leaking located near the manholes. This project does not include replacing any of the existing sanitary sewer lines. page 136 Feasibility Report Page 5 Project No. 201507 Water Main The existing water main in the Mendota Road Neighborhood is 8” ductile iron pipe and is currently in good condition with no need for replacement. The existing water main in the Warrior Drive Neighborhood is 12” ductile iron pipe and 6” ductile iron pipe at High Ridge Circle, Sibley Court. The water main pipes are currently in good condition with no need for replacement. Storm Sewer All existing storm sewer systems along the High Ridge Circle, Sibley Court and Warrior Drive are currently in good condition with no need for replacement. The existing storm sewer along Mendota Road was constructed with HDPE pipe and the condition of it will be assessed when connection of the new storm sewer is made. Private Utilities Providers of privately owned gas, electric, communications and cable television utilities are present in the neighborhood. page 137 Feasibility Report Page 6 Project No. 201507 PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS Roadway Reconstruction – Mendota Road Mendota Road requires a 9-ton street design meeting MDOT’s Municipal State Aid (MSA) standards. For a 20-year design life, the soils report recommends a street section consisting of a minimum 5” bituminous pavement surface over a 10” aggregate base. The horizontal alignment of Mendota Road will remain approximately the same from Oak Street to Delaware Avenue. The proposed street widths varies from 28 feet to 34 feet wide from face of curb to face of curb, which is generally 0 feet to 6 feet wider than the existing streets due to the addition of a parking lane, and concrete curb and gutter. See Appendix A for site plan. See Appendix B for resident survey results. See Appendix C for the typical sections. An effective way of rebuilding streets to achieve a greater design strength and reduce material costs is to reclaim the existing bituminous surface and incorporate the reclaimed bituminous as part of the base material for building the new streets. The City has utilized this construction procedure with good success on past reconstruction projects. Bituminous reclamation will be utilized where feasible. Driveways that are disturbed due to the street reconstruction will be replaced in kind. Disturbed boulevard areas will be restored with topsoil and sod. The existing right-of-way along Mendota road varies. No additional right of way or easements are anticipated with this project. Roadway Rehabilitation – High Ridge Circle, Sibley Court and Warrior Drive The rehabilitation of High Ridge Circle, Sibley Court and Warrior Drive requires a 7-ton street design per the City’s Street Rehabilitation and Reconstruction Policy. Any damaged concrete curb and gutter along these streets will also be replaced as part of the roadway restoration. Driveways that may be disturbed due to the street rehabilitation will be replaced in kind. Disturbed boulevard areas will be restored with topsoil and sod. The existing right-of-way is 80 feet wide on Warrior Drive and 55 feet wide throughout High Ridge Circle, Sibley Court. No additional right-of-way or easements are anticipated. Proposed improvements for High Ridge Circle, Sibley Court and Warrior Drive will include the reclamation of the existing bituminous roadway and the placing of a 2.5” bituminous base course and a 1.5” bituminous wear course over the reclaimed pavement material. By using the reclaimed pavement material as a base there is a cost savings versus importing a new aggregate base material. This method should rehabilitate the streets to like new condition and extend the life of the pavement an additional 20-30 years with continued preventative maintenance. The typical section of Warrior drive will be changed to allow for a concrete median lane divider and parking lane on the east side. See Appendix C for the typical sections. page 138 Feasibility Report Page 7 Project No. 201507 Trail Improvements Proposed improvements to the existing Brookside Lane to Laura Court trail include overlaying the existing bituminous surface with 2” bituminous pavement. (Appendix E) Pedestrian curb ramps will be constructed at the each end of the trail, as well as on every crosswalk location on Mendota Road trail with truncated dome detectible warning systems in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Preventative Maintenance Seal Coating of the Bunker Hills Neighborhood Streets and the Town Center approaches Proposed maintenance treatment for Arvin Drive, Freeway Road, Hilltop Court, Hilltop Road, Knob Road, Linden Street, Market Street, Maple Street, North Freeway Road, Ridge Place, South Freeway Road, South Lane, Valley Curve, Valley Curve Alley, Wachtler Avenue, and Willow Lane will include the chip seal coating which will consider distributing bituminous oil, or liquid asphalt, on the street surface, application of an aggregate cover, and using the pneumatic roller to reorient or seat the aggregate particles and tighten the rock matrix. After the asphalt cures, the excess aggregate is removed by sweeping so the seal coat provides the street with a new water proof surface and uniform look. There are two main reasons for seal coating streets: 1. The first main reason for seal coating is to seal the bituminous surface against the elements. The older a bituminous surface gets the more porous it becomes. This is due to the wearing away of the surface due to air, sunlight, rain and traffic. The rougher the surface becomes due to these factors, the more vulnerable it is and the more rapidly it deteriorates. Water trapped in the surface and freezing at night and thawing during the day over a few days begin the formation of potholes. One method of avoiding this result is to routinely seal coat the streets to keep the water out. 2. The second reason to seal coat streets is to coat the bituminous surface with a wear resistant material such as a hard material like granite. This not only minimizes damage done by normal traffic wear, but it also protects our streets from damage that might be done by scraping them several times a year with snowplows. Consequently seal coating does not add strength to the street; therefore, it is not used on older streets that need other type of repair such as overlaying or total reconstruction. Fog Seal Coating of the bike trail between the Dodd Road and Delaware Avenue Proposed maintenance treatment for the bike trail between the Dodd Road and Delaware Avenue will include the fog seal. Fog seals are used to delay weathering of the pavement, waterproof the pavement surface, improve the pavement’s ability to keep water from penetrating the base course or subgrade, and reduce raveling. Fog seals add new asphalt to the surface and help protect the asphalt and improve the appearance. It is relatively inexpensive treatment when compared to other surface treatments and will extend the quality life of the trail. See Appendix D for the Preventative Maintenance site map. page 139 Feasibility Report Page 8 Project No. 201507 Sanitary Sewer As mentioned before, the existing sanitary sewer is in satisfactory condition. This project does not include replacing any of the existing sanitary sewer lines. Water Main As mentioned before, the existing water main is in satisfactory condition. This project does not include replacing any of the existing water main lines. Storm Sewer As mentioned before, the existing storm sewer is in satisfactory condition. This project does not include replacing any of the existing storm sewer lines. New storm sewer will be extended on Mendota Road. Private Utilities No utility companies have indicated they will be making improvements to their distribution networks in conjunction with our proposed improvements. Funding Per the City’s Street Rehabilitation and Reconstruction Policy, it is proposed that the benefiting property owners will be assessed for street construction. Municipal bonds will be used to finance the City’s portion of the street reconstruction. Feasibility From an engineering standpoint, this project is necessary, cost-effective, feasible, and can be accomplished as proposed. page 140 Feasibility Report Page 9 Project No. 201507 FUNDING SOURCES AND SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS The area proposed to be assessed is every lot, piece, and parcel within the city limits benefiting from said improvement, whether abutting or not, within the following described areas: High Ridge Circle, Sibley Court, Mendota Road and Warrior Drive. Specific property descriptions included in the above-described area are shown on the map attached in Appendix A. The roadway improvement costs can be assessed on a unit basis to the benefiting properties as per the Street Rehabilitation and Reconstruction Policy adopted by the City council on June 16, 1992. All units with a driveway located on one of the proposed streets that are to be rehabilitated will be assessed. The following sections discuss the assessment distribution for the streets based on the City’s policy.

The 2013-2017 Street Improvement Plan (SIP) identifies future street reconstruction and rehabilitation projects and the Mendota Road Neighborhood Improvement project is planned for 2016. The Mendota Heights City Council ordered the preparation of a feasibility report for the Mendota Road Neighborhood Improvements at the May 19, 2015, city council meeting. The next step is to get feedback from you regarding a number of key components of the project. The information you share with us is essential in determining certain aspects of the project that may be constructed. Things to know and consider if an improvement project is approved:  Residents pay a portion of the overall project cost in the form of a special assessment. You will not be billed for the special assessment until Fall 2017. Estimated special assessments for your neighborhood will not be determined until after information has been gathered from the questionnaires and a feasibility report is completed.  Components of a project vary and are based on questionnaire responses. Special assessments typically include the cost of the new roadway. Other utility upgrades such as water main, sanitary sewer, and storm sewer are funded through utility funds and are not assessed.  Construction typically starts in spring/early summer and ends in late fall of the same year. The following information explains the questionnaire that is enclosed. A map showing the boundaries of the area to be reconstructed is also enclosed. After reading this letter completely, please complete the questionnaire and return by July 17, 2015, in the self-addressed stamped envelope. Drainage and Erosion Issues Typically, the installation of curb and gutter as well as rain gardens go a long way in correcting drainage issues due to concentrated flows from streets onto private property. The City would like to know about any local drainage problems that you may have. Does storm water run-off stand in the street or in front of your house? As part of the storm sewer design process, we would like to know if this or similar situations are occurring in your neighborhood. page 147 If so, please describe it in the drainage and erosion section of the questionnaire. We will review them for possible corrective action. Rain Gardens A rain garden is simply a "sunken" flowerbed, designed to retain and infiltrate as much storm water as possible. Rather than having the typical "raised" flowerbed that drains water away from the plants that need it, how about creating a garden to capture and use storm water to water the plants? The benefit to the environment is the reduction in the amount of storm water entering our ponds, lakes and streams. Every drop of water entering the street has no place to go, except down the gutter, into the storm sewer and into our ponds, lakes, streams and rivers. Should you choose to have a rain garden, it will be graded, prepared and plants supplied as part of the project at NO additional cost to you. The only condition is that you take ownership of the garden as far as maintaining it as part of your landscaping. Please call or stop in at the Engineering Department in City Hall for more information. Private Underground Utilities Some residents install private underground utilities in the City owned right-of-way. Typically the right-of-way is 15' to 20' behind the roadway. These utilities are usually lawn irrigation or pet containment systems. Utility and roadway reconstruction can damage these utilities. The contractor is responsible for protecting marked irrigation systems and pet fences, if damaged; they will be replaced to their original condition by the contractor. However, if the contractor knows the location of these private utilities, they can attempt to avoid damaging them. If you have any private underground utilities, please tell us in the private underground utilities section of the questionnaire. Tree Issues The City regards trees as an important element in any neighborhood environment and will do everything possible to design around any boulevard trees - especially mature ones. By no means will the City ever clear-cut entire boulevards of trees as part of a construction project! Property owners must understand, however, there are some instances in which boulevard trees may need to be removed. Several instances include whether 1) the tree is an obstruction in which the new street, in extreme cases, cannot be designed around or 2) if the tree has been a maintenance problem or sight distance hazard in the past, or 3) if the tree is located over an existing utility in need of repair. If a tree needs to be removed, the City will notify the property owner whose yard fronts the boulevard in which the tree stands prior to removal and explain the reason for removal. Residents who desire to have boulevard trees removed must notify the city prior to construction bidding which usually occurs in early spring. Residents who desire to have non-boulevard trees removed or trimmed must do so at their expense. page 148 Traffic/Pedestrian Issues The City of Mendota Heights typically reviews traffic or pedestrian issues on local streets. We would like to know if you feel that your roadway has any traffic or pedestrian issues. The existing street width on Mendota Road is between 27 and 30 feet wide from bit edge to bit edge. The city standard street width is 33 feet wide from face of curb to face of curb. The street width of 33 feet wide would be wide enough for one car to be parked and still maintain two drivable lanes on the street. The 33 feet wide street section will allow for parking only on the one side of street and the other side of the street would be posted as “No Parking". An alternative option is to reconstruct the street to be 28 feet wide. This option would result in no on-street parking. Please tell us your preferred street width in the traffic/pedestrian issues section of the questionnaire and indicate your preferred choice, On-street parking in front of your property or no on-street parking. Questions If you have questions after reading this letter, please call me or the engineering staff at 651-452- 1850.
