Meeting: Special Study Session Meeting Date: March 3, 2014 Discussion Item: 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY TITLE: Pilot Program with Park Nicollet Healthcare/Methodist Hospital RECOMMENDED ACTION: No action required. The City Council requested that further discussion take place on this topic. This report is intended to help facilitate the discussion at the study session POLICY CONSIDERATION: Does the City Council wish staff to pursue undertaking a pilot program to test the feasibility of a partnership with Park Nicollet/Methodist Hospital? SUMMARY: Fire Chief will update City Council on the proposed Pilot Program with Park Nicollet Healthcare/Methodist Hospital; Post Discharge Firefighter Visit and answers questions regarding this initiative. FINANCIAL OR BUDGET CONSIDERATION: Not applicable at this time VISION CONSIDERATION: Not applicable. SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS: Discussion Project Form Process Flow Prepared by: Steve Koering, Fire Chief Approved by: Tom Harmening, City Manager Special Study Session Meeting of March 3, 2014 (Item No. 1) Page 2 Title: Pilot Program with Park Nicollet Healthcare/Methodist Hospital DISCUSSION Pilot Program with Park Nicollet Healthcare/Methodist Hospital; Post Discharge Firefighter Visit The efforts continue to develop and plan for a pilot program where the fire department plays an integral role in reducing the readmissions of high risk patients. The problem hospitals experience is the gap in time after the patient leaves the hospital and is then seen by Home Care or goes to their first Primary Care visit. During this time the patient is really left to their own devices and in some cases it is during this gap that something will happen that causes the patient to access care through 911 (which we respond to) and is then readmitted. In many cases the issue could have been easily resolved had a visit occurred in the home environment prior to the 911 call. Examples of tasks that would benefit the patient are as follows: • Validate the patients understanding of their discharge orders. • Confirming prescriptions match with what was prescribed. • Did the patient actually pick up the prescription? • Could be that some symptoms are normal and the patient needs reassurance. • Does the patient have family or friends that are checking in? These are just a few examples of the kind of positive impact having a resource showing up in this window of time can deliver. By managing this pre-911 situation the patient gets to stay in the home, Park Nicollet reduces their costs and the overall patient/resident experience is improved. Why should the City and its Fire Department be involved? The concept being discussed is for the City’s fire personnel to partner with Park Nicollet to undertake the visits to certain patients shortly after their discharge to preventively address issues that might result in another 911 call and re-admittance into the hospital. After considerable research into this issue and our discussions with Park Nicollet’s team there were several benefits identified either for the City and/or Park Nicollet by the City undertaking the initial home visits. The following is a summary list: • Prevent unnecessary 911 calls and the associated costs for which there is no offsetting revenue. • Improve the lives of our residents, some of whom are our most vulnerable, consistent with the City’s Health in the Park initiative, which is also a partnership with Park Nicollet. • Firefighters are among the most trusted members within the care spectrum. • Firefighters are licensed, vetted, uniformed, and dispatched. • Firefighters have the necessary training, and the needs of these patients conform to the scope of practice firefighters are trained to do. • Fire operations are scalable and can meet the unpredictable demands on the system. • St. Louis Park Fire Department is already seeing a number of these patients post 911. • Provides potential revenue source to the City relating to the home visits. The pilot is intended to determine whether this initiative and such a partnership makes sense. The close partnership and relationship between the two organizations (the City and PNHC) already affords access to improved services, and this will extend that list. The City’s focus on Special Study Session Meeting of March 3, 2014 (Item No. 1) Page 3 Title: Pilot Program with Park Nicollet Healthcare/Methodist Hospital community wellness and safer communities becomes an integral component of this program and a revenue stream to recover costs and potentially fund future growth could become a reality. Additionally, the Park Nicollet Foundation is extremely interested in discussing how they might support this, including partnering with outside funding sources. Currently Park Nicollet along with City of St Louis Park personnel and other agencies are facilitating planning meetings guided by the Lean process management structure. The purpose of these meetings is to identify the needs and solutions for all concerned while moving towards a mock patient visit and ultimately a go live date sometime in early April. The parameters including timing, length of the pilot and outcome measurements will be defined as part of the planning process. As of this date there have been two 2 hour planning meetings in addition to work product being produced in between each meeting. These meetings have centered on understanding the varied questions, road blocks and benefits of a pilot of this type. The next meeting is March 10th. It will be at this meeting where we define more closely the patient check list, escalation matrix, documentation and other action items stemming from the February 24th meeting.

For this, PN accepted accountability for a population of Medicare Fee for Service patients. Our charge is to improve care based on the triple aim - quality care at a low cost and positive patient experience. During this time, we also joined the RARE campaign. This state program’s goal was to increase the number of nights that patients would be at home vs. the hospital as a result of better discharge planning and patient preparation. These readmission reduction programs lead to a lot of changes in the way that we deliver care that include the following: Risk stratification for those patients at high risk of readmission, Standardized care coordination/transitions/ handoffs, Post DC phone calls 24-72 hours after DC, Senior Services after hours call program, Care team redesign, Home care visits for patient who do not qualify for home care, Medication reconciliation processes and pilot, and an improved After Visit Summary A time in the patient process that continues to concern us is from the time that the patient is discharged to the time that home care starts or the patient comes in for a Hospital Discharge visit. This time has caused angst for home care as well as the clinics and decisions are made based on a gut feeling as to “will the patient be OK until x time?” The SLP Fire Department approached PN about becoming a community partner and using EMS to help decrease health care costs and improve the patient experience at the pre-911 timeframe, thus potentially decreasing 911 calls (a possible success measure). Patient calls to 911 dispatch police, fire as well as the vehicles they drive and the ambulance service- often times dispatching more than what the patient really needs. An opportunity exists is to partner with the Fire Department around a Post Discharge Visit. They are already seeing our patients in a crisis situation. They can prevent a patient “crisis” by completing a planned visit within the first 24 -48hours post DC. . There is a high percentage of EMT’s in the area that knows how to apply their skills for this type of patient encounter. Using the Fire Department allows for a quick scale up or down of resources with one phone call as they have systems in place. Similar work has been done by other systems with success: North Memorial has reduced readmissions using Community Paramedics for planned visits related to chronic disease and high ER utilization.

LOUIS PARK, MINNESOTA FEBRUARY 18, 2014 The meeting convened at 6:37 p.m. Councilmembers present: Mayor Pro Tem Susan Sanger, Tim Brausen, Steve Hallfin, Gregg Lindberg, Anne Mavity, and Jake Spano. Councilmembers absent: Mayor Jeff Jacobs. Staff present: City Manager (Mr. Harmening), Fire Chief (Mr. Koering), and Recording Secretary (Ms. Hughes). 1. Update on Fire Department Operations Mr. Harmening presented the staff report and stated that Mr. Koering has done outstanding work since his arrival in November and was pleased with his leadership in the Fire Department. Mr. Koering discussed the onboarding process and stated that one of the first priorities is to develop a current set of standard operating guidelines. He advised that a process for developing these guidelines has been established and five guidelines have been implemented to date, adding that every month he will send out three to five guidelines for review so that by the end of the year the Fire Department should have a complete set of standard operating guidelines. He stated that other priorities include increased communication and succession planning for the department. He indicated that the Fire Department will have some retirements during 2014 that will create opportunities for people to move up within the department. He advised that the City’s emergency operations plan is currently being reviewed and compared to the updated Hennepin County plan documents. He indicated that final updates to the EOCs are planned for 2014 with the goal of having the primary EOC at the police station. He discussed the implementation of Community Emergency Response Teams (CERT) and advised that CERT team members are community volunteers who are trained in basic disaster response skills and basic fire prevention, as well as traffic control during community-wide events. He added that he recently learned about some grant money that may be available to fund the development of CERT and agreed to provide further information to Council regarding CERT in the near future. Councilmember Lindberg expressed support for the CERT program and urged the City to make sure it secures the necessary resources to fund this program if the grant funds are not available. Councilmember Mavity stated the CERT program represents an opportunity to identify different leaders within the community and felt it would be important to consider how the City recruits for this program. Mr. Koering provided an update regarding the pilot program being considered with Park Nicollet in response to the Affordable Care Act whereby the Fire Department would schedule five or six home visits per day to check on recently discharged patients with the goal of keeping these people from being readmitted to the hospital or becoming high volume users of the emergency response system. He stated that keeping these patients in their homes will improve the patient City Council Meeting of March 3, 2014 (Item No. 3a) Page 2 Title: Special Study Session Minutes of February 18, 2014 experience and improve the brand of the City and the Fire Department. He explained that the Fire Department would get a list of discharged patients and schedule visits with these patients to check whether they have their prescriptions filled, verify discharge orders, and make sure the patient is off to the right start until the home nurse comes to assure continuity of care and keep them out of the emergency room, adding that if a patient does need to go back to the hospital, the Fire Department can be on scene in acute situations more quickly than in the past. He stated that staff believes this program represents a great partnership with Park Nicollet and there are a number of fire departments looking into this type of program. Mr. Harmening stated that the Affordable Care Act includes penalties to hospitals if patients are readmitted to the hospital within the 30-day period following discharge and the pilot program is intended to avoid re-admittance and to provide a better level of service to residents who are not in an emergency situation. He stated that further work needs to be done on the program, including the revenue the City would receive from Park Nicollet for providing this service, adding that Park Nicollet is very interested in working with the City on this program. He noted that conversations have also been taking place with the unions about the program. Mr. Koering discussed the timeline for implementation of the pilot program and stated that a complete test of the concept will take place on March 19, 2014, and suggested that he follow up with Council after that time. Mayor Pro Tem Sanger felt that Council needs to have a further discussion before agreeing to implement the program. Councilmember Mavity felt it would be informative to hear back from staff after the test on March 19th and Council can make a determination at that point whether to proceed with the program. Mayor Pro Tem Sanger stated she would like further information about how this program would impact the City’s ability to fight fires, as well as any additional costs to the City and whether additional staff would be needed. It was the consensus of the City Council to direct staff to bring this item back to Council for further discussion in a Study Session on March 3. The meeting adjourned at 7:32 p.m. ______________________________________ ______________________________________ Nancy Stroth, City Clerk Susan Sanger, Mayor Pro Tem Meeting: City Council Meeting Date: March 3, 2014 Minutes: 3b UNOFFICIAL MINUTES CITY COUNCIL MEETING ST.

Ms. Olson presented the staff report and explained that the allocation amount is expected to remain close to fiscal 2013 funding levels and these funding levels are being used until the 2014 allocation is finalized. She stated the City will receive $195,859 and proposes to use $45,000 for the low income single family emergency repair program, $60,000 for the low income single family deferred loan program, $20,000 for the Homes within Reach program, $23,359 for the St. Louis Park Housing Authority, $20,000 for PPL, $20,000 for Perspectives, Inc., and $7,500 for youth park programming at Meadowbrook. Mayor Pro Tem Sanger opened the public hearing. Mr. Larry Jones, 3000 Highway 100, appeared before the City Council and requested that Council consider providing funds to Vail Place if the funding is ever expanded. Mayor Pro Tem Sanger indicated the City has provided assistance in the past to Vail Place for its facilities within St. Louis Park. Mayor Pro Tem Sanger closed the public hearing. Councilmember Brausen stated there appears to be a substantial demand for the deferred loan program and requested that Council consider funding this program at a higher level in the future. He also requested that Council consider revising the program to shorten the loan forgiveness term to ten years for projects that include energy improvements. Mayor Pro Tem Sanger stated this could be discussed at a future study session.

Requests, Petitions, and Communications from the Public – None City Council Meeting of March 3, 2014 (Item No. 3b) Page 4 Title: City Council Meeting Minutes of February 18, 2014 8. Resolutions, Ordinances, Motions and Discussion Items 8a. First Reading – Zoning Ordinance Amendments Related to Anaerobic Digesters. Mr. Kelley presented the staff report and proposed Zoning Ordinance amendments to allow anaerobic digesters in the I-G General Industrial zoning district and explained the amendments are in response to a specific development concept presented by PLACE at the site of the former McGarvey building that includes a suite of renewable energy recourses including an anaerobic digester. He stated the digester is controlled composting that occurs in an enclosed container within a controlled environment that produces biogas to produce electricity or heat. He explained that the proposed CUP conditions are based on PLACE’s concept project and include conditions related to truck traffic, odor, and require that materials deposited from trucks take place in an enclosed system inside the building. He presented photographs of the receiving bin and digester unit, adding that additional conditions also address where material is coming from, how energy is used, and what permitting is involved from other State or County agencies. Councilmember Mavity expressed support for the digester and felt this project has the potential to produce a pilot project that could be replicated in other areas. She asked if this model has been used in other locations and also asked if the success of this project was dependent on PLACE securing a contract for organics recycling or whether it stands on its own. She also asked what leverage the City has to address any adverse smells emanating from the site and whether the digester would be required to be removed if housing does not occur as planned on the site. Mr. Kelley replied that if nuisances occur, staff would go out and check the system to see whether it is functioning as intended and if not, there are additional odor controlling devices that could be required. He stated that staff has been told that during the initial phase there would be odor control and air scrubbers in place and the City would not require installation of additional devices during the initial phase because they may not be needed, however, the City could require additional measures to control odor in the future if the need arose. He added the City could also consider revoking the CUP if the conditions are not met. Mayor Pro Tem Sanger felt it would be better to add a condition that states no odor should be detected beyond the digester so that the City has a clear method of enforcing the ordinance and felt it was PLACE’s obligation to comply with that requirement. Mr. Naresh Pallager 7602 South Bay Circle, Bloomington, appeared before the City Council on behalf of PLACE and stated that there are similar digesters in place successfully generating power. Councilmember Mavity asked if there was still a market for this project if PLACE does not secure a contract for organics recycling. Mr. Pallager replied in the affirmative and stated PLACE might get a smaller quantity than they anticipated and they are looking at other sources. City Council Meeting of March 3, 2014 (Item No. 3b) Page 5 Title: City Council Meeting Minutes of February 18, 2014 Mr. Kelley stated that Council is being asked to amend the Zoning Ordinance to allow anaerobic digesters in the I-G district and stated if a CUP was approved, then the digester could operate on this site. He stated the City would likely not be able to add a condition that requires construction of phase 2, adding that it appears it would not be economically viable to operate only a digester on this site. Councilmember Brausen asked if the City could require that all energy generated be used on site. Mr. Scott replied that the City could add that as a condition. Mr. Kelley noted that in some cases, all of the electricity generated cannot be used on site and they should be allowed to sell the excess electricity back into the grid. Councilmember Lindberg stated he would like the City to promote the project, but was concerned that if the City approved these standards, the City might find itself in the position of deciding whether this is the actual use it wants to see and was hesitant to say yes at this point. Councilmember Mavity asked staff to further research whether the digester is an appropriate use in an area where the City is trying to promote density. Councilmember Spano felt that Council should set its allowable expectations for the digester, e.g., no discernable odor, and allow PLACE to figure out how to meet those expectations with the understanding that the City retains the ability to pull the CUP if they do not meet all the requirements. Mayor Pro Tem Sanger felt there should be no discernable noise at the nearest residential property and requested this be included in the ordinance. She also requested further information about truck traffic carrying the end products not used on site. She expressed concern about potential fire hazards from the gases being produced and questioned whether there should be an insurance requirement to deal with hazardous issues. She also felt the City needed to find a way to tie the digester to the housing project and did not think using the site for the digester alone was a good economic use of the property. Councilmember Brausen suggested that Council consider creating a separate zoning district for properties that qualify for placement of a digester so the City could determine whether it should rezone a particular property for this purpose. Ms. McMonigal stated the City has developed conditions for this type of use anywhere in the I-G district and felt there were sufficient safeguards in place with the CUP process. Councilmember Mavity stated she would prefer to approve first reading and have a study session discussion to address Council’s ongoing concerns prior to second reading. It was moved by Councilmember Spano, seconded by Councilmember Mavity, to approve First Reading of Ordinance Amending the St. Louis Park Ordinance Code Relating to Zoning by Amending Sections 36-4, 36-142, and 36-244, and to set Second Reading for March 3, 2014. City Council Meeting of March 3, 2014 (Item No. 3b) Page 6 Title: City Council Meeting Minutes of February 18, 2014 The motion passed 6-0 (Mayor Jacobs absent). 8b. Law Enforcement Labor Services (LELS) Local #218 Police Sergeants Labor Agreement 2014-2015. Resolution No. 14-031. Ms. Deno presented the staff report and advised that the LELS Local #218 contract is a two-year contract with a 2% wage increase for 2014 and a 2.5% wage increase for 2015 and the employer contribution for health insurance is consistent with other groups. She stated this contract also includes assignment pay of $360, for crisis negotiators which is the same amount provided to other staff assigned to the Emergency Response Unit and the contract provides double time pay for unscheduled hours on Christmas and Thanksgiving and is consistent with the Patrol and Local 49 groups. It was moved by Councilmember Spano, seconded by Councilmember Brausen, to adopt Resolution No. 14-031 Approving the Labor Agreement between the City of St. Louis Park and Law Enforcement Labor Services, Local #218 Police Sergeants (January 1, 2014 – December 31, 2015). The motion passed 6-0 (Mayor Jacobs absent). 8c. Law Enforcement Labor Services (LELS) Local #220 Dispatch Labor Agreement 2014-2015. Resolution No. 14-032. Ms. Deno presented the staff report and advised that the LELS Local #220 contract is a two-year contract with a 2% wage increase for 2014 and a 2.5% wage increase for 2015, the employer contribution for health insurance is consistent with other groups, and provides double time for Christmas and Thanksgiving, consistent with the other union groups. She stated that the Police Chief has requested special recognition for five dispatchers who performed outstanding work under extreme staffing conditions and the contract provides a one-time net payment of $250 to each of the five dispatchers. Councilmember Mavity stated she was proud of the staff and proud of the City for recognizing its employees. Other Councilmembers also agreed with Councilmember Mavity and are appreciative of the work of dispatch staff. It was moved by Councilmember Mavity, seconded by Councilmember Hallfin, to adopt Resolution No. 14-032 Approving the Labor Agreement between the City of St. Louis Park and Law Enforcement Labor Services, Local #220 Police Dispatchers (January 1, 2014 – December 31, 2015). The motion passed 6-0 (Mayor Jacobs absent). 8d. Mayor Pro Tem Policy. Resolution No. 14-033. Ms. Deno presented the staff report and proposed policy relating to the appointment of the Mayor Pro Tem, which provides that the Mayor Pro Tem shall rotate every four months with appointments based on seniority. She noted that if a question arose regarding seniority with councilmembers elected at the same time, the rotation would be based on alpha by last name. Mayor Pro Tem Sanger asked what would happen if a councilmember had to resign. Mr. Scott advised that if for any reason a councilmember were unable or unwilling to serve as Mayor Pro Tem, the position would go to the next person based on seniority. City Council Meeting of March 3, 2014 (Item No. 3b) Page 7 Title: City Council Meeting Minutes of February 18, 2014 Councilmember Spano stated the policy appears to state that if, for example, Councilmember Brausen was Mayor Pro Tem and had to step down, Councilmember Lindberg would step in and fill out the balance of Councilmember Brausen’s rotation as Mayor Pro Tem and then serve his rotation as Mayor Pro Tem. Ms. Deno stated that the policy provides that in the absence of the Mayor and Mayor Pro Tem, the most senior available Councilmember will serve as Acting Mayor Pro Tem. Mr. Harmening stated that staff would review the policy and clarify the issues raised. It was moved by Councilmember Hallfin, seconded by Councilmember Spano, to direct staff to add additional language regarding rotation to the proposed resolution amending the St. Louis Park City Council Rules of Procedure Relating to the Appointment of the Mayor Pro Tem. The motion passed 6-0 (Mayor Jacobs absent). It was moved by Councilmember Hallfin, seconded by Councilmember Spano, to adopt Resolution No. 14-033 Amending and Restating Resolution 14-003 Regarding Appointment of Councilmembers to the Office of Mayor Pro Tem. The motion passed 6-0 (Mayor Jacobs absent). 9. Communications Mayor Pro Tem Sanger stated the City’s streets are becoming very narrow due to all the snow with some streets becoming impassable and the City is implementing a mandatory system of parking only on the odd side of those streets that are the most difficult. Mr. Harmening stated the City will be sending out notification to property owners who will be affected by the parking restrictions and signs will be posted later this week. Mayor Pro Tem Sanger stated the City recognizes this will cause some inconvenience and the City does not take this step lightly, but the City has the responsibility to keep its roads open and accessible. She stated that once the signs are posted, the City can enforce the parking restriction and vehicles will be ticketed and towed. She thanked residents for their cooperation and stated these restrictions will be in effect until the end of the winter. Mayor Pro Tem Sanger reminded residents of the annual home improvement fair on February 23rd at Eisenhower Community Center in Hopkins from 10:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Mr. Harmening reminded residents of the Health in the Park community meeting on Thursday, February 20th, from 6:30-8:30 p.m. at the Marriott West Hotel.

POLICY CONSIDERATION: Does the Council wish to adopt the rotation policy for appointing a Councilmember to serve as the Mayor Pro Tem with modifications as discussed at the February 18, 2014 regular city council meeting? SUMMARY: At the Special Study Session on February 3, 2014, Council discussed the Mayor Pro Tem and how rotating the appointment allows all Councilmembers the leadership experience.

Council also reviewed and discussed a proposed second resolution relating to revisions to City Council Rules of Procedure as they relate to the selection of the Mayor Pro Tem. During the discussion, Council agreed they would like to add language to clarify how the schedule would work if a member was not available to serve as Mayor Pro Tem. City Attorney Tom Scott provided additional language to address this and it has been added to both the Council Rules of Procedure and the attached Resolution as follows: “In the event that a Councilmember is unable to or chooses not to complete his or her term as Mayor Pro Tem, the next Council member in the rotation will complete the term and continue to serve his or her term as scheduled. “ FINANCIAL OR BUDGET CONSIDERATION: Not applicable.

PRESENT CONSIDERATIONS: As stated in the City Council Rules of Procedure, the Council shall adhere to the rules as stated therein unless revised by a majority vote of the City Council. NEXT STEPS: Should Council approve the resolution, the City Council Rules of Procedures will be amended and distributed to Council, and the Mayor Pro Tem position will rotate as stated by resolution.

Reviewed for Administration: Adopted by the City Council March 3, 2014 City Manager Mayor Attest: City Clerk Meeting: City Council Meeting Date: March 3, 2014 Consent Agenda Item: 4b EXECUTIVE SUMMARY TITLE: Accept Donation from Minnesota Society of Arboriculture RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to Adopt Resolution approving acceptance of a monetary donation from the Minnesota Society of Arboriculture in an amount not to exceed $2,000 for all related expenses, for Jim Vaughan, Environmental Coordinator, to attend the 2014 International Society of Arboriculture Conference in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. POLICY CONSIDERATION: Does the City Council wish to accept the gift with restrictions on its use? SUMMARY: State statute requires City Council’s acceptance of donations. This requirement is necessary in order to make sure the City Council has knowledge of any restrictions placed on the use of each donation prior to it being expended. The City of St. Louis Park’s Environmental Coordinator, Jim Vaughan, will represent the Minnesota Society of Arboriculture (MSA) as their International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) Council Representative at the 2014 Arboriculture Conference in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, July31 - August 6, 2014. This conference is an annual international conference for arborists covering many aspects in the science, technology, management and practice of urban tree care. The Minnesota Society of Arboriculture elected Mr. Vaughan as their representative to the ISA. The ISA requires each chapter representative (i.e. Mr. Vaughan) attend each annual ISA conference. As a result of Mr. Vaughan’s election/appointment, the Minnesota Society of Arboriculture has offered to pay all related conference expenses in an amount not to exceed $2,000. The City Attorney has reviewed this matter. His opinion is that state law permits the payment of such expenses by this organization, regardless of whether the funds come from primary or secondary sources. It is treated as a gift to the city and needs to be a resolution adopted by the City Council determining that attendance at this event serves a public purpose and accepting the gift. The resolution needs to be adopted before attendance at the conference. The City of St. Louis Park will pay for travel, the conference and hotel accommodations up front and submit receipts to MSA for reimbursement. FINANCIAL OR BUDGET CONSIDERATION: This donation will be used toward the expenses incurred by Jim Vaughan’s attendance to the International Society of Arboriculture conference in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

POLICY CONSIDERATION: Is the proposed Variance and CUP consistent with the zoning ordinance and the Comprehensive Plan? SUMMARY: The subject property is a tenant space in the Texa-Tonka Mall located adjacent to the YESmart, and was previously occupied by the New York Bagel business that closed approximately 10 years ago. The applicant is not proposing to make any exterior changes. The subject property is zoned C-2, General Commercial. Restaurants with intoxicating liquor are allowed in this district with conditions. One of the conditions is that it must be located at least 100 feet from a parcel that is zoned Residential. The proposed restaurant will be located 24 feet from a residential property to the north, therefore, the variance was requested. A floor plan and menu was included with the application, and is attached to this report. The restaurant will provide cooked to order seasonal food, and provide a wide variety of locally crafted beer on tap. The floor plan shows seating for up to 67 people with 17 of those seats at a bar. An intoxicating liquor license is required for this proposal. The background check for the liquor license is not complete at this time; therefore, the CUP/Variance application is proceeding to the Council separate from the liquor license application. The applications have to be separated because State law requires all zoning applications, including CUPs and variances to be answered by the City Council within 120 days from the date the application was submitted. The 120 days expires on March 15, 2014. The March 3, 2014 City Council meeting is the last meeting before the 120 days expires. The 120 day limit does not apply to the liquor license review. FINANCIAL OR BUDGET CONSIDERATION: Not applicable VISION CONSIDERATION: Not applicable. SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS: Discussion, Resolutions, Excerpt of Planning Commission Minutes, Development Plans (description and menu), Survey Showing Setback to Residential, Letter from Property Owner Prepared by: Gary Morrison, Assistant Zoning Administrator Reviewed by: Sean Walther, Sr. Planner Michele Schnitker, Housing Supervisor Approved by: Nancy Deno, Deputy City Manager/HR Director City Council Meeting of March 3, 2014 (Item No. 8a) Page 2 Title: Bin & Keg, LLC, Conditional Use Permit (CUP)/Variance – 8128 Minnetonka Blvd. DISCUSSION BACKGROUND: Proposed Use: The restaurant is described as being a casual opportunity for families and friends to gather and dine. It will feature gourmet bar food with a wide selection of beer on tap, many of which will come from local Minnesota breweries. The restaurant will use fresh ingredients and a cook to order concept. The proposed restaurant will be located in the west side of Texa-Tonka Mall, adjacent to the Yesmart. It is approximately 5,140 square feet in area, and is proposed to have 67 seats. Location: Zoning Regulations: Comprehensive Plan: Commercial Current Zoning: C-2 General Commercial Existing Use: Former New York Bagel tenant space located in the Texa-Tonka Mall. City Council Meeting of March 3, 2014 (Item No. 8a) Page 3 Title: Bin & Keg, LLC, Conditional Use Permit (CUP)/Variance – 8128 Minnetonka Blvd. ZONING ANALYSIS – CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT: Restaurant with Intoxicating Liquor License: Restaurants with an Intoxicating Liquor License are permitted in the C-2 Zoning District by Conditional Use Permit. The Restaurant must have a full service kitchen capable of: 1. Preparing food on-site from fresh ingredients. 2. Serving the food in individual portions for consumption on-site. 3. Meeting all building and health code requirements. The floor plan submitted with the application shows sufficient detail to confirm that the restaurant meets the parking requirements and that there is a kitchen. The plan does not, however, confirm that there is sufficient space for a full-service kitchen that meets all building and health code requirements. A more detailed plan, drafted by an architect, will be required for the City building permit and County health code review. The plan will also have to conclusively show that the menu presented to the Council for review under the CUP approval can be prepared in the kitchen plan submitted for building and health code review. A copy of the proposed menu and description of the restaurant is attached. The conditions of approval of the CUP should include the following: 1. A detailed floor plan and kitchen plan, prepared by a licensed architect, shall be submitted to the City Inspections Department and County Health Department for review and approval. 2. The kitchen plan must show that the menu presented to the City Council for Conditional Use Permit approval, and attached herein as “Exhibit A” can be prepared in the proposed kitchen. The menu may change without further review by the City; however, the menu must remain consistent in form and substance as that shown in the attached exhibit. Liquor License: Bin & Keg, LLC applied for an Intoxicating Liquor License in November of 2013. The application is currently being reviewed by the City Clerk’s office, and the background check is in process. Typically the Liquor License application and the CUP for the restaurant would be on the same City Council agenda, however, the CUP and Variance is subject to a State mandated timeline that the liquor license is not. The State requires the City to respond to all zoning applications such as Conditional Use Permits and Variances within 120 days. The application is deemed approved if the City Council does not approve the application within the 120 days. The 120 days for the Bin and Keg CUP and Variance applications expire on March 15. Therefore, the applications must be heard by the City Council on March 3rd since it is the last City Council meeting prior to the March 15th deadline. This also means that the City Council cannot table consideration of these applications without written consent from the applicant. To date, the applicant has not authorized an extension. He would like the City Council to act on the CUP and Variance applications on the March 3rd meeting. Therefore, the conditions of approval of the CUP should include a condition requiring approval of the intoxicating liquor license applied for by Bin & Keg, LLC in November of 2013. City Council Meeting of March 3, 2014 (Item No. 8a) Page 4 Title: Bin & Keg, LLC, Conditional Use Permit (CUP)/Variance – 8128 Minnetonka Blvd. Parking: Per the zoning ordinance, the restaurant requires 72 parking spaces. The entire mall, with the proposed restaurant and the existing Than Do restaurant, requires 299 parking spaces. There are a total of 326 parking spaces available. 172 parking spaces are located in front of the Texa Tonka Mall. Another 154 spaces are located off-site, on the east side of Texas Avenue, across the street from the mall. These off-site spaces are owned by the owner of the Texa Tonka mall, and are held for required parking for the mall. Staff finds that parking requirements are met. Conditional Use Permit-Conditions of Approval: Restaurants with intoxicating liquor license are allowed in the C-2 General Commercial zoning district by CUP with some conditions specific to this use. A review of the conditions follows: a. Access shall be to a roadway identified in the comprehensive plan as a collector or arterial or shall be otherwise located so that access can be provided without generating significant traffic on local residential streets. Access is to Minnetonka Blvd and Texas Ave. Minnetonka Blvd is Arterial Minor Reliever, and Texas is a Minor Collector. This condition is satisfied. b. Buildings shall be located a minimum of 100 feet from any parcel that is zoned residential and used or subdivided for residential or has an occupied institutional building including but not limited to a school, religious institution or community center. The space in the mall occupied by the proposed restaurant is located 24.1 feet from a parcel zoned residential. The proposed restaurant does not meet this condition, and a variance request is included as part of the requested CUP. An analysis for the variance application is below, following the CUP analysis. c. Separate pedestrianways shall be constructed to allow for the separation of pedestrian and vehicular movements within the parking lot. There is a sidewalk along the entire front of the mall that will safely conduct pedestrians to the restaurant from the parking lot, including the off-site parking lot. There is also a sidewalk along Minnetonka Blvd and Texas Ave. This condition has been met. d. The use is in conformance with the comprehensive plan including any provisions of the redevelopment chapter and the plan by neighborhood policies for the neighborhood in which it is located and conditions of approval may be added as a means of satisfying this requirement. The property is guided commercial in the comprehensive plan, and it is located in the Texa Tonka Neighborhood. The Texa Tonka plan by neighborhood chapter of the Comprehensive plan calls for: 1. Continued efforts to revitalize and redevelop the Texa Tonka commercial node. 2. Encourage the addition of neighborhood-oriented retail businesses such as a small grocery store, coffee shop and pub. The proposed restaurant is in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan and Plan by Neighborhood policies. City Council Meeting of March 3, 2014 (Item No. 8a) Page 5 Title: Bin & Keg, LLC, Conditional Use Permit (CUP)/Variance – 8128 Minnetonka Blvd. ZONING ANALYSIS - VARIANCE: The following variance is requested: A 76 foot variance to allow a Restaurant with Intoxicating Liquor License to locate 24 feet from a parcel zoned residential instead of the required 100 feet. Below is an analysis of the proposal based on the City’s criteria for granting variances found in Section 36-34 of the Zoning Ordinance. Consideration of the effect of the proposed variance upon the health, safety and welfare of the community. The restaurant is proposed to locate within the existing Texa Tonka mall, and the closest residential property is located behind the mall. The restaurant is oriented toward Minnetonka Boulevard with the primary entrance facing Minnetonka Boulevard, placing the activity of the restaurant away from the residential properties behind. The parking lot is also on the front side of the mall, opposite the residential properties. The parking lot has direct access to Minnetonka Blvd and Texas Ave, so traffic should not impact the residential properties. Staff finds this criterion has been satisfied. The request is in harmony with the general purposes and intent of the ordinance. The request is in keeping with the general purpose and intent of the ordinance. Staff believes the intent of the ordinance is to provide a buffer between residential areas and uses with potential noise and traffic impacts. This restaurant with intoxicating liquor license use is located in a mall with the primary entrance fronting Minnetonka Boulevard. Additionally, the parking lot is between the mall and Minnetonka Boulevard. The area between the mall and the residential properties behind is a private service alley that is currently used for the other businesses within the mall. Staff finds this criterion has been satisfied. The request is consistent with the comprehensive plan. The request is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan as demonstrated below: Section IV, Goal 4 of the Comprehensive Plan states: Preserve and revitalize neighborhood commercial nodes that provide essential neighborhood commercial services, unique neighborhood identity, and neighborhood gathering opportunities. Section F. Plan By Neighborhood – Texa Tonka Neighborhood Improvement Opportunities states: Continue to revitalize and redevelop the Texa-Tonka commercial node; and Encourage the addition of neighborhood-oriented retail businesses in commercial nodes, such as a small grocery store, coffee shop, pub. Allowing this use to locate in the Texa Tonka mall provides a neighborhood gathering opportunity, removes a vacant storefront and contributes to the vitality of the Texa Tonka mall. Staff finds this criterion has been satisfied. City Council Meeting of March 3, 2014 (Item No. 8a) Page 6 Title: Bin & Keg, LLC, Conditional Use Permit (CUP)/Variance – 8128 Minnetonka Blvd. There are practical difficulties in complying with the Zoning Ordinance. Practical difficulties are defined as follows: 1. The property owner proposes to use the property for a land use permitted in the zoning district in which the land is located. The applicant is requesting to open a restaurant with intoxicating liquor, which is permitted with a Conditional Use Permit in the zoning district. 2. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to the property not created by the landowner. The plight is the result of the zoning ordinance requiring a 100 ft. distance between the use and residentially zoned properties, and the applicant is proposing the use in an existing building as opposed to new construction. The use would be located within an existing mall which currently contains businesses serving alcohol. The mall building provides a buffer between the primary entrance to the restaurant and the parking lot. 3. The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality. The proposed use is to be located within an existing mall which currently houses other businesses such as: restaurants, a convenient store and a bowling alley. The addition of this restaurant would provide a unique dining and public gathering option in the area, while coalescing with the character of the Texa Tonka mall. 4. Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties. Major considerations for the variance are for consistency with the character of Texa Tonka Mall and the Comprehensive Plan. 5. Practical difficulties include inadequate access to direct sunlight for solar energy systems. This is not applicable. Staff finds that these criteria, as applicable, are met. Neighborhood Meeting: The applicant held a neighborhood meeting on December 5, 2013 at City Hall. Notices were mailed out to property owners within 350 feet of the subject property and the neighborhood leaders of the Texa Tonka, Aquila and Oak Hill neighborhoods were notified. There were six residents in attendance. All spoke in favor of the proposed concept and welcomed this addition to the neighborhood. Planning Commission: A public hearing was conducted on December 18, 2013. Neighbors spoke in favor of the application. The Commission voted (5-0) to recommend approval of the requested CUP and variance. A copy of the minutes is attached for review.

The property is located in the C-2 Zoning District at the following location, to-wit: Par 1: Lots 24, 25, 27 and 28, Block 4 Texa-Tonka Addition. Par 2: Tracts A, B and C, Registered Land Survey No. 176, Hennepin County, Minnesota. Par 3: The West 130 feet of the North 160 feet of the East 210 feet of the South 293 feet of all that part of the Southeast Quarter of the Southeast Quarter of Section 7, Township 117, Range 21 commencing at the Northwest corner of the Southeast Quarter of the Southeast Quarter of said Section; thence East along the North line of said Southeast Quarter of Southeast Quarter a distance of 438.5 feet; thence turning South at right angles and running to the South line of said Southeast Quarter of Southeast Quarter; thence West along said South line a distance of 437.8 feet to the Southwest corner of said southeast Quarter of Southeast Quarter; thence North to place of beginning, excepting therefrom the Great Northern Railroad right of way, said right of way being a strip of land 100 feet wide, being 50 feet wide on each side of the center line of the railway of the Great Northern Railway as now constructed across said land. Par 4: Lots 14, 16, 17, 18. 19. 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, and 27 and Lot 15, except that part thereof lying Southeasterly of a line drawn from a point on the South line of said lot line distant 18 feet West of the Southeast corner of said Lot 15 to a point on the East line of said Lot distant 18 feet North of said Southeast corner. All in Block 2, Texa-Tonka Addition. 2. On December 18, 2013, the Planning Commission held a public hearing, received testimony from the public, discussed the application and moved approval of a variance to reduce the required 100 foot setback for a restaurant with intoxicating liquor license to a residential property. 3. The Planning Commission has considered the effect of the proposed variance upon the health, safety and welfare of the community, existing and anticipated traffic conditions, light and air, danger of fire, risk to the public safety, the effect on values of property in the surrounding area, and the effect of the proposed variance upon the Comprehensive Plan. City Council Meeting of March 3, 2014 (Item No. 8a) Page 8 Title: Bin & Keg, LLC, Conditional Use Permit (CUP)/Variance – 8128 Minnetonka Blvd. 4. Because of conditions on the subject property and surrounding property, it is possible to use the property in such a way that the proposed variance will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to the adjacent property, unreasonably increase the congestion in the public streets, increase the danger of fire, endanger the public safety, unreasonably diminish or impair health, safety, comfort, morals, or in any other respect be contrary to the intent of the Zoning Ordinance and the Comprehensive Plan. 5. The special conditions applying to the structure or land in question are peculiar to such property or immediately adjoining property and do not apply generally to other land or structures in the district in which such land is located. 6. There are practical difficulties in complying with the Zoning Ordinance. The proposed use will be located in an existing mall, and the existing building serves as a buffer between the residential neighborhood and the front entrance of the proposed restaurant. 7. The contents of Planning Case File 13-41-VAR are hereby entered into and made part of the public hearing record and the record of decision of this case. 8. Under the Zoning Ordinance, this variance shall be deemed to be abandoned, revoked, or canceled if the holder shall fail to complete the work on or before one year after the variance is granted. 9. Under the Zoning Ordinance, this variance shall be revoked and cancelled if the building or structure for which the variance is granted is removed. CONCLUSION The application for the variance to allow a restaurant with intoxicating liquor license to be located 24 feet from a property zoned residential and used for residential purposes instead of the required 100 feet is granted based upon the findings set forth above, and with the following conditions: 1. The variance shall be null and void if the liquor license applied for by Bin & Keg, LLC in November of 2013 is not approved by the City Council. 2. The variance shall be null and void if the use is discontinued for more than one year. 3. The variance is applicable to that portion of the mall proposed to be occupied by Bin & Keg, LLC as represented in the attached floor plan labeled “Exhibit A”. The restaurant cannot be expanded in floor area without further amending this variance. The City Clerk is instructed to record certified copies of this resolution in the Office of the Hennepin County Register of Deeds or Registrar of Titles as the case may be.

Public Hearings A. Conditional Use Permit and Variance Location: 8128 Minnetonka Boulevard Applicant: Bin & Keg LLC (Brent Olson) Case No.: 13-40-CUP and 13-41-VAR Ryan Kelley, Associate Planner, presented the staff report. The application is for an American Grill restaurant with intoxicating liquor license at Texa Tonka Mall. A 76 foot variance is also requested to allow a restaurant with intoxicating liquor license to be located 24 feet from a parcel zoned Residential instead of the required 100 feet. Mr. Kelley reviewed staff findings regarding the site orientation which results in impacts to the residential properties being minimal and meeting the intent of the ordinance condition. He discussed how the application would meet the intent of the Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Kelley noted that there is consistency with an existing approved restaurant with intoxicating liquor at Thanh Do which is within the same Texa Tonka mall. Mr. Kelley spoke about the neighborhood meeting that was held on December 5, 2013. He said the residents in attendance at the neighborhood meeting spoke in favor of the proposed concept. Mr. Kelley noted that one letter of support was received and is included in the staff report. He added that one phone call was received from a resident opposing the project. That resident is located to the southeast of the mall, across Minnetonka Blvd. Commissioner Carper asked if the Thanh Do restaurant needed a variance for its liquor license based upon its location. Mr. Kelley responded that in 1999 a variance and a conditional use permit were granted for the space now occupied by Thanh Do. Thanh Do met those same conditions. Commissioner Kramer asked if the Indian restaurant and Texa Tonka Lanes at the mall required a variance for intoxicating liquor license. City Council Meeting of March 3, 2014 (Item No. 8a) Page 15 Title: Bin & Keg, LLC, Conditional Use Permit (CUP)/Variance – 8128 Minnetonka Blvd. Mr. Kelley said beer and wine is permitted in the C2 District without the distance requirement. The Indian restaurant has beer and wine only. Texa Tonka Lanes does have an intoxicating liquor license and conditional use permit. He said he would have to check on the variance. Texa Tonka Lanes is within 100 ft. of the residential to the north. Brent Olson, applicant, said the concept intent is for full liquor, wine and a feature of 15- 20 fine craft beers on tap. It’s intended to be a full service restaurant with an upscale, urban concept. The intoxicating liquor will be an option at the bar, but not a feature. Mr. Olson said he is hoping to open in March. Chair Robertson opened the public hearing. Brandon Gallagher Watson, 2912 Texa Tonka Ave., stated that a couple of months ago he and his wife hosted a neighborhood gathering, which included Councilmember Santa, looking at what they as citizens could be doing to improve the look and feel of the community. Mr. Watson said the proposed upscale bar/grill is perfect and he hopes it kicks off the revitalization of the Texa Tonka area. Josh Grossman, representing Fine Properties of MN, said he wanted to reassert the support of Fine Properties as mentioned in the letter included in the staff report. Commissioner Kramer asked that the message be passed along that more development is encouraged at the mall. Thomas Walker, 2953 Texa Tonka Ave., said his property is the parcel which is 24 ft. from the proposed restaurant. He said he and his wife have met with the owner and they are very impressed and look forward to the development. He asked that the Planning Commission approve the request. Brett Brown, 2940 Virginia Ave. S., said an issue which has been brought up to the city before is the traffic which will go around the loop. He spoke about the problem of turning in from Minnetonka to Virginia and then to Texas. He said Fine Mgmt. was supposed to comply with having some type of a stop system or parking barrier within the parking lot. It’s been proposed to change the exit and entrance to Virginia. Mr. Brown said he is in favor of rejuvenating the whole area but on-going parking concerns should be addressed and complied with by Fine Management. Chair Robertson closed the public hearing. Commissioner Morris stated that he is hearing that it is good to have a new business but the site itself is in need of improvement. He said the parking situation is bad. There is no parking striping or greenscape. The traffic situation getting in and out is abysmal. He asked at what stage in redevelopment of Texa Tonka with new tenants does the city get involved with site development and issues of parking and traffic management. Meg McMonigal, Planning and Zoning Supervisor, responded that staff will talk with the applicant and property owner about those issues prior to the City Council meeting to take a closer look and see if something could be done; particularly regarding striping and clear traffic patterns. She said that could be a condition of a conditional use permit. City Council Meeting of March 3, 2014 (Item No. 8a) Page 16 Title: Bin & Keg, LLC, Conditional Use Permit (CUP)/Variance – 8128 Minnetonka Blvd. Commissioner Morris said he understood that Minnetonka Blvd. is a county road, but possibly the ingress and egress on Mtka. Blvd. could be moved down more to allow for better ingress. The divided roadway on Texas is prohibitive for getting in and out. Commissioner Morris said if this were a stand-alone site and the developer was proposing to bring in a strip mall and we were looking at the existing traffic and parking situations, we’d be saying this has to be improved. At some point the property owner has to bring a better site plan into the city. Chair Robertson said he agreed with Commissioner Morris’ comments completely. He said additional traffic worries are justified. Commissioner Kramer remarked that he is in favor of the applicant’s proposal. He said historically he didn’t see the property owner making changes on that property voluntarily. It needs to be a mandated requirement. Commissioner Morris made a motion recommending approval of the Conditional Use Permit to allow a restaurant with intoxicating liquor license and a 76 foot variance to allow a restaurant with intoxicating liquor license to be located 24 feet from a residentially zoned parcel instead of the required 100 feet. He added to his motion the additional comment that as the site continues to utilize its rental/retail space the Commission agrees that it’s a unique situation and there is no reason to penalize businesses or the community from having a vibrant type of entity. He added a condition that staff takes a serious look at future development of the Texa Tonka Mall as to the traffic and parking conditions that exist there. Commissioner Kramer seconded the motion to recommend approval with comment and condition, and the motion passed on a vote of 5-0.

POLICY CONSIDERATION: Does the City Council wish to continue implementation of the City’s Pavement Management Program? SUMMARY: Each year the City rehabilitates several miles of local residential streets. This particular street is a Municipal State Aid (MSA) street. The street rehabilitation work generally consists of removing and replacing the existing bituminous pavement, curb and gutter, and watermain. Other work includes storm sewer and concrete repairs. Access to properties is typically maintained throughout construction. FINANCIAL OR BUDGET CONSIDERATION: This project was planned for and is included in the City’s adopted Capital Improvement Program with an estimated budget of $395,000. This amount of financing estimated assumed that the street would be rehabilitated with a mill and overlay. Due to the condition of the street, concrete curb, and the need to replace the watermain, a full depth rehabilitation is necessary.

SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS: Discussion Resolutions Project Map Prepared by: Joseph Shamla, Senior Engineering Project Manager Reviewed by: Debra Heiser, Engineering Director Jay Hall, Utilities Superintendent Approved by: Nancy Deno, Deputy City Manager/HR Director City Council Meeting of March 3, 2014 (Item No. 8b) Page 2 Title: Municipal State Aid Project – Pennsylvania Avenue – Project No. 2016-1100 DISCUSSION BACKGROUND: The 2014 MSA Street Project, Project No. 2016-1100, is located on Pennsylvania Avenue from Wayzata Boulevard to Franklin Avenue. The project includes installation of water main, curb and gutter replacement, and bituminous replacement. Pennsylvania Avenue is an MSA road. In order to use MSA funds to reconstruct the street, the new road must meet MSA standards. The selection of Pennsylvania Avenue was based on previous condition surveys of the streets and field evaluations to determine current conditions of the pavement, curb and gutter, and the city’s underground utilities. A team of staff members worked together to select streets and to recommend appropriate rehabilitation techniques for inclusion in this year’s Pavement Management Projects. The team included staff from Operations, Utilities, and Engineering. The soil borings for Pennsylvania Avenue show that the road was constructed with a uniform section of 4 inches of bituminous over silty sand/ gravelly base. Staff has determined that an appropriate treatment for rehabilitating the streets consists of removing old asphalt pavement and replacing it with four inches of new pavement over 8 inches of Class 5 aggregate base. This will meet the 10 ton road design required by MSA standards. The majority of the street is 32 feet wide. To meet MSA standards, parking is only allowed on one side of a 32 foot wide road. To allow parking on both sides, the street would need to be widened to 38 feet wide. Staff took a look at the road and the existing driveways and determined that widening the street to accommodate parking on both sides would create steeper driveways and require the removal of a number of mature trees. As a result, staff is proposing to keep the road width as 32 feet and establish additional parking restrictions. Between 13th Lane and 14th Street the road is only 30 feet wide. This segment will be widened by two feet in order to accommodate parking on one side of the street. Parking restrictions were discussed with the property owners during the public meeting; a full discussion of the restrictions is in the “Public Process” section below. A no parking resolution is attached for City Council approval. The Engineering Staff has prepared plans and specifications for this year’s project. In conjunction with the pavement replacement, watermain will also be replaced from Franklin Avenue to 14th Street. During the installation of the new watermain, water service will be maintained to each of the properties through a temporary system. Along with replacing the water main, the residents on this street will have the option of replacing their water service line, at their expense, from the main to the shut-off valve located at the property line. The city’s contract will include items for this work. The bid price on these items will be charged against those properties choosing to replace their water service line. Owners will be requested to prepay or be specially assessed this cost. Owners may also opt to arrange to do this work utilizing their own hired contractor, provided it does not interfere with or delay work on the city contract. Other utility work will include curb and catch basin repairs and hydrant replacement at various locations throughout the project. City Council Meeting of March 3, 2014 (Item No. 8b) Page 3 Title: Municipal State Aid Project – Pennsylvania Avenue – Project No. 2016-1100 Utility companies have been contacted to inform them of the city’s proposed work plan and schedule. For those companies that have buried utilities, staff has asked them to consider replacing any aging systems prior to our paving of the streets. Centerpoint Energy has indicated they will be replacing gas main lines and services on Pennsylvania Avenue. Centerpoint Energy typical begins their gas main work in mid to late April about a month prior to the start of the street work. Public Process: Staff invited the property owners that live on Pennsylvania to an open house to review the preliminary plans for the proposed street construction work on January 18, 2014. Five residents attended. Typical questions were raised about the timing of the project and what construction impacts would be felt by the residents while the project is underway. The main topic of discussion was parking; the property owners requested that we do what we can to maximize the number of stalls available on the street. The initial proposal for parking restrictions was to restrict parking on the west side of the street for the entire length of the project. Staff responded to the feedback from the property owners by making some changes to the “no parking” areas to get the most available parking stalls. The proposed parking restrictions are as follows: • No parking on the west side of Pennsylvania Avenue from Wayzata Boulevard to W. 16th Street. • No parking on the east side of Pennsylvania Avenue from Wayzata Boulevard to 1333 Pennsylvania Avenue. • No parking on the east side of Pennsylvania Avenue from W. 16th Street to Franklin Avenue. A letter was sent out updating the property owners of the modifications to parking in early February along with the attached parking exhibit. Project Timeline: Should the City Council approve this Project, the following schedule is proposed: • Approval of Plans/Authorization to Bid by City Council March 3, 2014 • Advertise for bids Mid-Late March, 2014 • Bid Opening April 10, 2014 • Bid Tab Report to City Council; Award contract April 21, 2014 • Begin Construction Late May, 2014 The project is anticipated to last approximately 4 months. During this work, residents will nearly always have access to their driveways and overnight parking will be allowed on both sides of the street. However, driveways will not be accessible for 7 days where concrete aprons are replaced.
