Discussion Item: 1
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
TITLE: Newspaper Circulars
RECOMMENDED ACTION: No action required at this time. The City Attorney and staff
desire to discuss concerns and complaints that have been received from residents regarding the
unwanted delivery of newspaper circulars and resulting littering issues.
POLICY CONSIDERATION: What further action, if any, would the City Council desire staff
to pursue regarding this issue.
SUMMARY: Over approximately the last year city councilmembers and staff have received
numerous complaints regarding the unrequested and unwanted delivery of newspaper circulars
that are thrown in residents driveways, front yards or backyard alley areas. The nature of the
complaints vary and include strong concerns about littering.
Recently, staff sent out a postcard to residents informing them of steps to unsubscribe from the
delivery of these circulars. Unfortunately, comments from residents indicate that even after
unsubscribing the circulars continue to be delivered.
The City Attorney will be present to assist in the discussion with the City Council.

CITY COUNCIL SPECIAL STUDY SESSION
ST. LOUIS PARK, MINNESOTA
AUGUST 18, 2014
The meeting convened at 6:34 p.m.
Councilmembers present: Mayor Jeff Jacobs, Tim Brausen, Gregg Lindberg, Anne Mavity,
Susan Sanger, and Jake Spano.
Councilmembers absent: Steve Hallfin.
Staff present: Deputy City Manager/Director of Human Resources (Ms. Deno), Director of
Community Development (Mr. Locke), Economic Development Coordinator (Mr. Hunt), Senior
Planner (Mr. Walther), Marketing & Communications Coordinator (Mr. Zwilling), and
Recording Secretary (Ms. Hughes).
Guests: David Graham (ESG Architects), Rich Kauffman (DLC Residential), Burt Coffin (ESG
Architects), Luke Appert (Cushman & Wakefield), and Russ Krivor (DLC Residential).
1. West End Redevelopment Update
Mr. Locke presented the staff report and advised that Duke Realty has proposed to make changes
to a portion of the West End development, primarily due to market conditions as they relate to
the office site. He then introduced Mr. David Graham with ESG Architects.
Mr. Graham distributed an Illustrative Concept Plan and explained that the revised plan provides
approximately 700,000 square feet of office space, as well as a residential and hospitality district
along Utica Avenue. It includes the previously planned boulevard extension at Utica that
becomes the main boulevard through the development, as well as a large linear park. He stated
that the plan contains two eleven-story office buildings and a parking ramp along the freeway
and pointed out that the gross square footage of developable area is still 1.2 million square feet.
The demand for parking has been reduced by approximately 800 stalls because of the reduction
in office space and the introduction of 400 units of housing.
Councilmember Brausen stated that he met with the Duke Realty development team earlier today
to review their proposal, and he shared with the development team his passion for affordable
housing. They discussed the City’s recently adopted housing goals and available tools, adding
that he felt the City could work with Duke on this revised plan.
Councilmember Sanger stated she felt that the revised concept plan was worth pursuing. She
also felt that the proposed park needed further attention and requested that the developer find
ways to connect the bike trails to the rest of St. Louis Park.
Councilmember Lindberg spoke in favor of the revised concept plan.
Councilmember Mavity stated that she would prefer to see the buildings built closer together to
achieve more usable green space, adding that the same goes for the parking.
City Council Meeting of September 2, 2014 (Item No. 3a) Page 2
Title: Special Study Session Meeting Minutes August 18, 2014
Mr. Graham stated that the plan provides two levels of residential parking below grade, with a
ratio of one stall per bedroom. The office buildings generate a need for 2,827 stalls, and the plan
provides that the parking ramp be located against the expressway with two levels underground
and six levels above ground, adding there is an opportunity to share parking because of the mix
of uses.
Councilmember Mavity suggested that the developers consider the use of an hour car and stated
that if the City were to receive a ten or fifteen year commitment with some collateral for an hour
car, the City might be able to reduce some of the parking requirements that would save money
that could be used toward underwriting the affordable housing component.
Mr. Graham acknowledged that the parking solution is a significant design issue, and they would
like to discuss the possibility of reducing parking requirements to 1.2 or 1.3 stalls per unit to
make it possible to fill the cost gap for affordable housing, along with the use of hour cars.
Councilmember Mavity expressed concern about the corner of 16th Street and Highway 100 and
felt that the intersection needs to be signalized, particularly with the increased uses and traffic.
Councilmember Spano agreed with Councilmember Mavity’s remarks about increased green
space and coalescing the office structures to achieve more green space. He stated that Council
has previously discussed whether the current infrastructure supports the development and asked
how the proposed changes would impact the infrastructure, including storm and waste water, and
clean water delivery, as well as the fiber optic network.
Mr. Locke advised that utility capacity was addressed as part of the AUAR, and this issue will
need to be addressed going forward. He added that part of the permanent easement for the pump
station is for the sewer interceptor going through this area.
Ms. Deno noted that Novartis is no longer manufacturing in St. Louis Park, which has made
sufficient water capacity available, and agreed that the other areas will be analyzed as part of any
revised concept plan.
Councilmember Sanger stated she hoped that the apartment mix included some larger apartments
and not just one-bedroom apartments. She requested that the developers give due consideration
to the architectural design of the buildings. She also asked if there was going to be a TIF request
for this proposal.
Mr. Locke explained that the redevelopment contract already exists for the West End. It provides
TIF assistance for the project and states how the TIF money is to be used. The concept plan
before the City Council tonight is about changing the physical plans but not changing the terms
of the redevelopment contract, adding that there will be changes in the schedule for the
construction of the remaining components of the West End to a more realistic schedule for the site.
It was the consensus of the City Council to direct staff to further pursue Duke Realty’s new
Concept Plan for the eastern portion of the West End property.
The meeting adjourned at 7:18 p.m.

She stated that Section 8-1 has been revised to add electronic delivery devices to tobacco
products such that if someone wants to open an establishment that sells only electronic
cigarettes they would have to comply with licensing requirements and regulations in the
City Code, including an annual inspection and compliance check by the Police
Department. She stated that Section 8-191 requires all business license applicants to
provide a designated management agent and to update the City whenever there is a
change in this agent. She stated that Section 8-297(d) and Section 8-303(b) have been

must provide a government issued ID.
City Council Meeting of September 2, 2014 (Item No. 3b) Page 3
Title: City Council Meeting Minutes August 18, 2014
Councilmember Sanger asked if someone applying for a permit to demolish a building
would have a certain amount of time in which to rebuild once a building is demolished.
Ms. Boettcher stated anyone taking a permit out to demolish a building would have up to
180 days to either restore the property or provide a building permit application to
construct on the property.
Ms. Deno noted a property owner could flatten the property and leave it as green space.
Councilmember Sanger requested confirmation that there is no time limit by which they
have to replace the building.
Ms. Deno replied that this was correct.
Councilmember Sanger asked if property owners would be provided with the City’s
requirements about maintaining a property so it does not become a nuisance. She also
asked about the City’s remedy if someone does not comply with the requirements.
Ms. Deno agreed that City staff could give property owners the City’s regulations
regarding demolition, cleanup, and the weed ordinance.
Ms. Boettcher stated that a Temporary Property Maintenance Certificate includes an
escrow that is equal to the amount of money to demolish the building and property
owners do not get this money back until the property is restored. She stated the City also
receives a damage deposit when someone gets a demolition permit that the City can use
to restore a property.
It was moved by Councilmember Lindberg, seconded by Councilmember Mavity, to
approve First Reading of Ordinance Relating to Property Maintenance Inspections,
Business License Applications, Tobacco Product and Massage Therapy Licensing
Provisions, Amending Chapters 6 and 8 of the St. Louis Park Code of Ordinances and to
set Second Reading for September 2, 2014.
The motion passed 6-0 (Councilmember Hallfin absent).
9. Communications
Mayor Jacobs stated that school starts again in a couple of weeks and urged residents to
watch out for kids waiting for the bus.
Councilmember Spano stated that the City recently launched a free mobile app called
“My SLP” that allows residents to do a number of things, e.g., finding polling locations,
construction updates, and also includes a function called “nearby requests” where
residents can take a picture of a problem that needs to be addressed such as a road sign
that has been knocked over and the request is routed to City staff for resolution.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
TITLE: Temporary On-Sale Intoxicating Liquor License - Frank Lundberg American Legion
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to Approve a Temporary On-Sale Intoxicating Liquor
License for the Frank Lundberg American Legion Post 282, 5605 36th St. W. in St. Louis Park,
for their Annual Anniversary Celebration to be held September 6-7, 2014, in the parking lot at
the American Legion.
POLICY CONSIDERATION: Does Council wish to approve the Temporary On-Sale
Intoxicating Liquor License for the Frank Lundberg American Legion for their Annual
Anniversary Celebration being held September 6-7, 2014?
BACKGROUND: The Frank Lundberg American Legion Post 282 has applied for a temporary
liquor license for their Annual Anniversary Celebration to be held on Saturday, September 6,
from 5:00 pm to 10:00 pm, and Sunday, September 7, from 2:00 to 5:00 pm, in the American
Legion parking lot located at 5605 36th St. W. A DJ will provide music from 7:00-10:00 pm on
Saturday, and there will also be music from 2:00-5:00 pm on Sunday. Food will be prepared and
served indoors, though there will be tables for eating outside. The parking lot will be fenced off
and tented for the event.
The American Legion Post 282 is a service organization with the purpose of promoting
Americanism, patriotism, and to provide for the needs of our youth and children. The event will
also involve a Hockey Association Fundraiser.
The Police Department has completed the background investigation on the principals and has
found no reason to deny the temporary license. The applicant has met requirements for issuance
of the license, and staff is recommending approval.
FINANCIAL OR BUDGET CONSIDERATION: The fee for a temporary liquor license is
$100.00 per day of the event.
VISION CONSIDERATION: Not Applicable.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
TITLE: Second Reading of Amendments to Chapter 6 and 8 of City Code of Ordinances
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to approve Second Reading and Adopt Ordinance of
amendments to Chapters 6 and 8 of the City Code of Ordinances relating to Building and
Building Regulations and Business Licenses for Massage Therapist, Massage Therapy
Establishment and Tobacco Products and Tobacco Related Devices effective September 26,
2014, and approve summary ordinance for publication on September 11, 2014.
POLICY CONSIDERATION: Does Council wish to approve the Ordinance amendments
being proposed?
SUMMARY: First reading of the ordinance amendments was approved 6-0 by Council on
August 18, 2014.
Following the first reading a point of clarification was made by the city attorney that “electronic
delivery device” is a separate definition under state law, which needs to be incorporated
separately and not included in the definition of tobacco and tobacco related products. Therefore,
Sections 7 through 13 of the proposed ordinance have been revised since the first reading to
include “electronic delivery device” wording where necessary.
This group of proposed amendments is intended to provide increased effectiveness in the point-
of-sale property maintenance program, and licensing for tobacco sales and massage therapy:
• Sections 6-177 Application and 6-178 Inspection for Certificate of Property Maintenance –
Proposal is to simplify the process and reduce application fee.
• Section 8-1 Definitions – Tobacco related devices. Amend the definition and related sections
to specifically include electronic delivery devices as a regulated product.
• Section 8-191 Initial Application –All business license applicants must provide a designated
local management agent.
• Sections 8-297(d) and 8-303(b) Applicants must provide a current Minnesota or Wisconsin
government issued identification as part of the application process.
FINANCIAL OR BUDGET CONSIDERATION: Reduced fee for point of sale inspection for
buildings to be demolished will have an imperceptible impact on overall program revenue.
VISION CONSIDERATION: Not applicable.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
TITLE: Abatement of Hazardous Building – 3925 Zarthan Avenue South
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to Adopt Resolution ordering the abatement of the
hazardous buildings located at 3925 Zarthan Avenue South.
POLICY CONSIDERATION: Does Council concur with staff’s recommendation of declaring
the structures as hazardous buildings and authorize the abatement process to protect the public
health and safety?
SUMMARY: The property contains a single family home and garage and has a history of
exterior property maintenance deficiencies that resulted in staff declaring the property a nuisance
and hiring a company to clean up the exterior of the property earlier this year. Evidence of
hazardous conditions within the interior of the house led to the City obtaining an Administrative
Search Warrant to perform an inspection within the structure.
Property Maintenance Inspector Manny Camilon and Director of Inspections Brian Hoffman
acted on the Warrant and attempted to complete the inspection on August 22, 2014. The
attached inspection report prepared by Inspector Manny Camilon details the health and safety
concerns discovered. In general the house is full of trash, decaying organic matter, infestation,
and generating a putrid odor. The building remains posted as unsuitable for occupancy and
secured. Our City Attorney realizes the urgency to abate this condition and believes we can
obtain an order by early October.
FINANCIAL OR BUDGET CONSIDERATION: If the Court approves the summary of
enforcement, the City will hire a contractor to abate the hazardous conditions. Expected cleaning
costs are estimated to be $10,000 - $15,000. The City will request the Court to order an
assessment against the subject property for the expenses and legal fees the City will incur.
VISION CONSIDERATION: Not applicable.

Re: Hazardous Building Located at 3925 Zarthan Avenue South
This matter is now before the St. Louis Park City Council to determine whether to declare the
Subject Property a Hazardous Building. The following documents are attached to this
memorandum for Council review:
1) A Proposed Resolution Ordering the Abatement of the Hazardous Building
2) Exhibit A: This contains all evidence (documents, reports, and photographs) relating to
the code violations at the Subject Property.
3) Exhibit B: An Order for Repair and Removal of Hazardous Conditions
Summary of Code Violations at 3925 Zarthan Avenue South
On April 2, 2014, Manny Camilon, a Property Maintenance Inspector for the City of St. Louis
Park, observed a topaz Mercury GS motor vehicle with Minnesota license plate 580 DNU on the
curtilage of the property located at 3925 Zarthan Avenue South in the city of St. Louis Park. Said
motor vehicle was filled with rubbish, garbage, and perishable items, and fly carcasses lined the
windowsill.
On April 23, 2014, police officers executed a search warrant based upon probable cause at 3925
Zarthan Avenue South. Once inside, officers observed that the house was filled with garbage,
rubbish, and decaying matter. All of the surfaces were covered with garbage, plants, food, and
rubbish. The stovetop was covered with food, cooking oil, and pans. The amount of rubbish
inside the house created an odor and made it difficult to walk through the premises.
Camilon received several additional complaints about the property. The owner of the property,
Ramona Cagley, is now living in a nursing home. On August 22, the City of St. Louis Park
obtained and executed an administrative search warrant at the Subject Property to document the
code violations.
The previously observed hazards persisted at the time of execution of the warrant. Additionally, it
was noted that the garage was so filled with garbage that, when the garage door was opened,
garbage spilled out into the driveway. A strong odor of decay resonated from the garage any
time the door was opened. Large amounts insulation had fallen from the rafters, indicating
animal infestation.
City Council Meeting of September 2, 2014 (Item No. 4d)
Title: Abatement of Hazardous Building – 3925 Zarthan Avenue South Page 3
Overview of Hazardous Building Declaration Process
Minnesota law permits the St. Louis Park City Council to order the repair and abatement of
hazardous conditions that exist within its city limits. Hazardous conditions include health, safety,
and fire hazards that exist because of inadequate maintenance, dilapidation, physical damage,
unsanitary condition, or abandonment. Minn. Stat. § 463.15, subdiv. 3. A condition is a hazard if
it affects public safety or health.
If the St. Louis Park City Council determines that the Subject Property constitutes a hazardous
building, it may sign a resolution ordering the owner to abate the hazards. Once the resolution
has been signed, the Order for Repair and Removal of Hazardous Conditions (Exhibit B) will be
served upon the owner, Ms. Ramona Cagley. Ms. Cagley will then have twenty (20) days to
remedy the hazardous conditions. If she fails to comply within that time period, we will seek
permission from District Court to allow the City of St. Louis Park to abate the hazardous
conditions.

RESOLUTION NO. 14-____
RESOLUTION ORDERING ABATEMENT
OF HAZARDOUS BUILDING
WHEREAS, the Property Maintenance Inspector for the City of St. Louis Park has
attempted without success to have the owner of certain property remedy the hazardous and unsafe
condition of the uninhabitable house situated on property at 3925 Zarthan Avenue South, St. Louis
Park, Minnesota 55416 (“Subject Property”), in Hennepin County; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has determined that the premises, its curtilage, and garage,
including a topaz Mercury GS motor vehicle with Minnesota license plate 580 DNU located on the
Subject Property, constitute a hazardous building and are a health and safety hazard within the
meaning of Minn. Stat. § 463.15, subd. 3;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF ST. LOUIS PARK, MINNESOTA:
1. The City has fully considered all evidence relating to the code violations at the
Subject Property. Said evidence is attached hereto as Exhibit A. Exhibit A includes
the following documents:
a. Ownership Documents: Certificate of Title
b. Administrative Search Warrant
c. Photographs and Report of Manny Camilon, Property Maintenance Inspector
for the City of Saint Louis Park, dated August 22, 2014.
2. After fully considering all of the reports, photographs, documents, and other
evidence pertaining to the code violations at the Subject Property, the City of St.
Louis Park finds:
a. Ramona Cagley, 3925 Zarthan Avenue South, St. Louis Park, Minnesota
55416, is the owner of the Subject Property. There are no lienholders of the
Subject Property.
b. The condition of the Subject Property constitutes a hazard to public safety or
health and is therefore a Hazardous Property within the meaning of Minn. Stat.
§ 463.15, subd. 3.
c. An administrative search warrant was executed on August 22, 2014 at 9:25
am. Manny Camilon, Property Maintenance Inspector for the City of Saint
Louis Park, Brian Hoffman, Director of Inspections, and Officer Josh Ryan

the house.
City Council Meeting of September 2, 2014 (Item No. 4d)
Title: Abatement of Hazardous Building – 3925 Zarthan Avenue South Page 5
d. At that time, the individuals present noted that the garage was so filled with
garbage that, when the garage door is opened, garbage spilled out into the
driveway. A strong odor of decay resonates from the garage any time the door
is opened. Large amounts of insulation have fallen from the rafters, indicating
animal infestation.
e. A topaz Mercury GS with Minnesota license plate 580 DNU is located on the
Subject Property. The doors of the vehicle are locked. Moldy storage boxes
are located inside the car. Dead flies and maggots have accumulated on the
dash of the rear window. There is an old bag of shriveled potatoes or similar
vegetable on the front seat.
f. A strong, putrid smell exists in the house and emanates outside when the doors
are open. Although a few photographs were taken of the interior of the house,
the smell prevented those present from taking more detailed photographs.
Camilon noted that piles of trash and decaying matter observed in his last
inspection still filled the house.
g. Evidence of lice and bedbug bites were present on the homeowner when she
was removed from the house, and it is likely these infestations still exist within
the home. There is also a high likelihood of rodent activity due to the rotting
food left in the house.
3. Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes § 463.16 et seq., the City hereby adopts and
approves the Order for Repair and Removal of Hazardous Conditions attached
hereto as Exhibit B.
4. The City’s legal counsel, Campbell Knutson, P.A., 317 Eagandale Office Center,
1380 Corporate Center Curve, Eagan, Minnesota 55121, is directed to serve the
Order for Repair and Removal of Hazardous Conditions and to proceed with
enforcement in accordance with Minn. Stat. § 463.15 et seq.

Inspection Report
To: Brian Hoffman, Ann Boettcher
From Manny Camilon, R.S., EHS
Re: Search Warrant for 3925 Zarthan Ave South, SLP
Date: August 22, 2014
An administrative search warrant was issued today at 9:25 am at 3925 Zarthan Ave. South, home of
Ramona Cagley who is now in a nursing home. The house is vacant and was previously secured by the
City. Present were Brian Hoffman, Director of Inspections, Officer Josh Ryan and myself. I posted the
search warrant on the locked front screen door & photographed it. The search warrant authorized the
photographing of current conditions inside the garage, an abandoned vehicle & the interior of the
house.
We first opened the overhead garage door and junk literally began to spill out into the driveway. There
was a very strong stench of putrefied items coming out of the garage opening as well. It was so bad that
the only way we could control the spread of the odor was to close the overhead door.
I next photographed items inside of the car. There were storage box that had mold growing on the
outside of the box. Dead flies and maggots had accumulated on the dash of the rear window. An old
bag of shriveled potatoes or a similar vegetable was noted amidst all the junk in the front seat. Doors
were locked.
Brian then unlocked the side door to the house, and as he opened the door, a very strong sour stench
right at the entrance prevented overcame him and stopped him from venturing in. He had to go to the
curb to regain his breath. I came over and also noted the raunchy smell and had to back off for a breath
of fresh air. Even though we had Tyvec suits on, booties, gloves and a face mask, the putrid smell was
too powerful for us to go in. Every time I tried to go near the house, I became nauseated and backed
off. I finally managed to take a deep breath, reach into the entry way and shoot three photographs of
the stairs leading to the basement, the entry way and the kitchen. I immediately closed the door and
locked it again to prevent the offensive odors – the same ones the neighbors are complaining about –
from escaping. It is evident we would not be entering the basement today due to the overpowering
stench and the same massive amount of trash, garbage and litter in the stairwell since out last
inspection.
Officer Ryan indicated in an earlier conversation that when the owner Mrs. Cagley (86 years old) was
removed from the house earlier this summer, the doctors who examined her found evidence of lice and
bedbug bites on her body. It is almost certain the infestation still exists. I also concluded there is a high
likelihood of rodent activity with all the open rotting food left in the house. And from the large amounts
of blown insulation from the rafters raining down upon the junk and items in the garage, I suspect some
animal has been living in the garage and may still be.
Brian noted a basement light on inside the window. He did however verify that all the windows and
doors were secured - evidence of no break-in or intruders. We secured the house with a padlock and
closed the garage overhead door at approximately 9:47 am.

Title: Bid Tab: Maintenance Project - 2014 Random Concrete Repair - Project No. 4014-0003
DISCUSSION
BACKGROUND: Bids were received on August 19, 2014 for the annual repair and construction
of sidewalk, curb and gutter, and storm sewer catch basins at various locations in the city. Staff
annually surveys the condition of sidewalks to identify hazards for repair. Panels of sidewalk
that are cracked or have been lifted by tree roots to create trip hazards that need to be removed
and replaced are included in this contract. Curb and gutter with similar defects that create
drainage or safety problems are also repaired. Deteriorating catch basins that are within the work
area will also be repaired or rebuilt. Most of this work will be concentrated in next year’s
sealcoating areas (Areas 7 and 8, which include the Blackstone, Cedarhurst, Lake Forest, Fern
Hill, Pennsylvania Park, North Side, Eliot and Eliot View neighborhoods).
An advertisement for bids was published in the St. Louis Park Sun-Sailor on July, 24, 2014. In
addition, plans and specifications are noticed on the City Website and are made available
electronically via the internet by our vendor Quest CDN.com.
Seven contractors/vendors purchased plan sets including two Disadvantaged Business
Enterprises (DBE) and one Veterans Preferred business
Funding Details
Based on the low bid received, cost and funding details are revised as follows:
Expenditures
Construction Cost (proposed contract) $ 232,507.00
Engineering & Administration (12%) $ 27,900.00
Total $ 260,407.00
Revenues
PW Operations Funds (sidewalk repairs) $ 82,500.00
PW Operations Funds (curb and gutter repairs) $ 12,500.00
Pavement Management Funds $ 100,000.00
Stormwater Utility Funds $ 60,000.00
Total $ 255,000.00
These projects were planned for and included in the City’s adopted Capital Improvement
Program with an estimated combined budget of $255,000. The $5,407 cost difference between
the expenditures and revenues will be made up from the pavement management budget.
Construction Timeline:
This work is to be completed in two parts; Area 8 will be completed by October 31, 2014 and
Area 7 will be completed by June 19, 2015.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
TITLE: Approve Design Services Contract - Project #4015-2000 Connect the Park! Sidewalk-
Trail-Bikeway Installation for 2015
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to approve a Consultant contract with Bolton & Menk,
Inc. for preliminary and final design of the 2015 Connect the Park! sidewalk, trail and bikeway
segments in the amount of $371,430.
POLICY CONSIDERATION: The proposed contract is for the design of segments that are
consistent with the City Councils adopted Connect the Park! sidewalk, trail and bikeway system
plan and the City’s Capital Improvement Program. Does Council desire to move forward with
this project as identified in the City’s Capital Improvement Program?
SUMMARY: Staff has begun implementation of Connect the Park! master plan with the
construction of a number of segments of sidewalk during the summer of 2014. For the 2015
construction season staff is anticipating constructing eight sidewalk and trail segments and five
bike facility segments. Our experience with the 2014 project is that there is a need for a high
level of customer contact to develop plans and address concerns. To accomplish this goal and at
the same time provide the same high level of customer contact for the other projects in the City's
CIP, staff recommends that we hire a consultant to perform the survey, preliminary design,
public engagement and final design for these thirteen facilities. City staff will continue to be
engaged throughout the design process and the construction phase of the contract.
Bolton & Menk, Inc provided these services to the City for the 2014 sidewalk segments. Staff
believes that their experience with the process and City staff makes them the best consulting firm
to lead the 2015 project.
FINANCIAL OR BUDGET CONSIDERATION: The design contract for the 2015 proposed
project is $371,430. The estimated overall project cost for these segments is $1.5 million. The
anticipated design and construction costs for this project are consistent with the estimates
included in the Capital Improvement Program. The costs for this project will be paid for using
general obligation bonds.
VISION CONSIDERATION: St. Louis Park is committed to being a connected and engaged
community.

Title: Approve Contract Project # 4015-2000 Connect the Park! Sidewalk-Trail-Bikeway Installation 2015
DISCUSSION
BACKGROUND: The overall estimated project costs for the implementation of the Connect the
Park! initiative over the 10 year period is approximately $17-24 million dollars. The estimated
construction cost for the 2014 sidewalk segments is $980,000. The initial construction estimate
for the 2015 project is $1.5 million. The 2015 project includes the following segments:
Sidewalk and Trails:
1. Texas Avenue sidewalk from Cedar Lake Road to Franklin Avenue (west side)
2. Morningside Road sidewalk from Wooddale Road to Edina City limits (either side)
3. Flag Avenue/16th Street Area Neighborhood Sidewalks (evaluate both sides)
a. 14th Street
b. Hillsboro Avenue
c. 18th Street
d. Flag Avenue
4. Louisiana Avenue trail from Walker Street to 32nd Street (west side)
5. 32nd Street Trail between Oregon Ave and Pennsylvania Ave (new connection)
Bike Facility Segments:
1. Texas Avenue Bikeway from Interstate 394 to Edgebrook Drive
2. Flag Avenue/16th Street Area Neighborhood
a. Flag Avenue
b. Franklin Avenue
c. Ford Road
d. Shelard Parkway
Staff anticipates that the public engagement will be at the same level as the 2014 project. Many
of these segments present significant design challenges. As a result, it is very likely that there
will be multiple design scenarios.
The Flag Avenue/16th Street area (segment 3 of sidewalk and trails and segment 2 of bike
facilities) include rehabilitation of the roadways in this neighborhood. Designing the roadway,
bikeway and sidewalks as one integrated project will result in a cohesive design and achieve
some cost savings. As a result, staff is requesting that Bolton & Menk, Inc. complete the
preliminary and final design of these roadway segments in conjunction with the sidewalk and
bikeway design.
Staff is confident that Bolton and Menk, Inc. will provide the high level of support required for a
successful project.
NEXT STEPS: If Council approves this contract, Bolton & Menk, Inc could begin data
collection within the first few weeks of September. Staff would expect to hold a minimum of
two public open houses for each of the segments. The open houses would typically take place in
late October/early November and again in early January. Staff would anticipate bringing to
Council a feasibility report in late winter for discussion and approval. This would allow for early
spring bidding and allow construction to begin late spring.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
TITLE: Statutory Tort Limits for Liability Insurance
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to Adopt Resolution electing not to waive the statutory
tort limits for liability insurance.
POLICY CONSIDERATION: Does the Council agree with Staff’s recommendation to
continue the past decision not to waive the statutory tort limits for liability insurance?
SUMMARY: Each year the Council is required to pass a resolution indicating if they wish to
waive or not waive the monetary limits on municipal tort liability insurance established by
Minnesota Statute 466.04.
The statutory liability limits for claims that occur after July 1, 2009 are $500,000 per claimant
and $1,500,000 per occurrence.
The City Council must review and make an election of one of the following three options:
• Not to waive the statutory tort limits
• Waive the limits and not purchase excess liability coverage.
• Waive the limits and purchase excess liability coverage
The three options are given in more detail in the background of the report.
FINANCIAL OR BUDGET CONSIDERATION: The City will continue to maintain liability
insurance coverage through the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust in the amount
required by State Statute, and the required annual motion will be in place in preparation for the
new policy year.
VISION CONSIDERATION: Not applicable.

Title: Statutory Tort Limits for Liability Insurance
DISCUSSION
BACKGROUND: The three options the City Council has are detailed below. The City’s
practice has been option 1, to not waive the statutory tort limits. Staff recommends the Council
continue with this practice.
Option 1 (Current)
If the city elects not to waive the statutory tort limits, an individual claimant would be able to
recover no more than $500,000 on any claim to which the statutory tort limits apply. The total
which all claimants would be able to recover for a single occurrence would be limited to
$1,500,000.
Option 2
If the city waives the statutory tort limits and does not purchase excess liability coverage, a
single claimant could potentially recover up to $1,500,000 on a single occurrence. The total
which all claimants would be able to recover for a single occurrence to which the statutory tort
limits apply would also be limited to $1,500,000, regardless of the number of claimants.
Option 3
If the city waives the statutory tort limits and purchases excess liability coverage, a single
claimant could potentially recover an amount up to the limit of the coverage purchased. The
total which all claimants would be able to recover for a single occurrence to which the statutory
tort limits apply would also be limited to the amount of coverage purchased, regardless of the
number of claimants.
The City of St. Louis Park in the past has elected to not waive the statutory tort limits and has not
purchased excess liability coverage. Staff recommends continuing this practice and not to waive
the statutory limits. The following resolution allows the statutory tort limits to remain in place
until the Council changes this election. Staff will ask Council to consider this question annually
as required by the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust.

TITLE: Conditional Use Permit – 4101 31st Street Apartments
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to Adopt Resolution approving a Conditional Use
Permit (CUP) for a 13-unit apartment building located at 4101 West 31st Street, with conditions
as recommended by staff.
POLICY CONSIDERATION: Is the proposed CUP consistent with the Zoning Ordinance and
the Comprehensive Plan?
SUMMARY: A CUP is requested to construct a 3-story, 13-unit apartment building with no
variances.
The property is zoned R-4 Multiple-Family Residence and is guided medium density in the
Comprehensive Plan. The lot is .48 acres (20,854 sf) in area.
The CUP was presented to the Planning Commission with three variances. The Planning
Commission recommended approval of the CUP, and denial of the variances. Since then, the

DISCUSSION
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Requested is for a Conditional Use Permit to allow a three-story,
13 unit apartment building with structured parking.
The structured parking and a lobby for the residential units take up the ground floor. The
apartment units are located on the second and third floors.
The 13 units consist of nine one-bedroom units and four two-bedroom units.
BACKGROUND:
Comprehensive Plan: Medium Density Residential
Zoning: R-4 Single Family Residential
Neighborhood: Triangle Neighborhood
The property is .48 acres, or 20,854 square feet in area.
The parcel was previously improved with a single family house. The house was removed in
2010; however, the detached garage still exists today, and will be removed as part of the project.
It is located on the south side of 31st Street, and is bordered by a single family home on the west
side, and a new 2 story, 7 unit apartment building on the east side. The Inglewood apartment
building borders the south property line.
City Council Meeting of September 2, 2014 (Item No. 8a) Page 3
Title: Conditional Use Permit – 4101 31st Street Apartments
ZONING ANALYSIS:
Proposed Use:
The proposed 13 unit apartment building is allowed by Conditional Use Permit (CUP) in the R4
Multi-Family Residential Zoning District. The apartment building is subject to additional
conditions, including architectural standards, a Designed Outdoor Recreation Area (DORA),
landscaping and sidewalks. As discussed below, the proposal meets these requirements.
Setbacks
The proposal meets the required
setbacks. The setbacks for the
proposed building are detailed
in the following table:
Required Yards Min Required Proposed
Front (North) 23.5 feet 23.5 feet
Side (West) 25 feet 32 feet
Side (East)* 11 feet, 6 inches 15 feet
Rear (South)* 25 feet 25 feet
* Additional setback is required for sidewalls that exceed 50
feet in length. The proposed building meets the additional
setback requirements.
City Council Meeting of September 2, 2014 (Item No. 8a) Page 4
Title: Conditional Use Permit – 4101 31st Street Apartments
Exterior Building Materials
At least 60% of each elevation must be
constructed using Class 1 materials.
The proposed building materials are
brick, stucco, glass, and cement siding.
The brick, stucco and glass are
considered to be Class I materials.
Also, cement siding can be used for up
to 10% of the required 60% Class1
minimum as long as it is lap siding.
The plan meets or exceeds the
requirements as follows:
Height
The maximum height in the R4 Zoning District is three stories or 40 feet in height, whichever is
less. The proposed height is 33 feet, 6 inches.
Parking
City Code requires at least one parking space per bedroom. A breakdown of the required and
proposed parking is as follows:
Use Required Provided Met?
Multiple Dwelling
(17 bedrooms) 17 spaces 15 underground,
2 outside
Yes
On-street parking is allowed on the north side of the street only. So on-street parking cannot be
counted toward the required parking for this proposal.
Landscaping:
Existing Conditions:
There are many trees scattered throughout the site, however, only three are considered to be
significant by definition found in the City Code. There are also numerous volunteer trees and
shrubs that have spread through the site since the home was vacated in 2010.

Title: Conditional Use Permit – 4101 31st Street Apartments
Site Landscaping:
The landscaping ordinance requires 13 trees (one per dwelling unit), and at least 126
shrubs/perennials.
The landscaping plan shows 10 trees (3 deciduous and 7 conifers) along with 126 shrubs. As
noted below in the tree replacement section, a total of 79 caliper inches of trees are required as a
result of the removal of three significant trees on site. This translates into 29 trees. The
applicant is proposing to dedicate the remaining 19 trees to the City tree fund to replace trees lost
to disease and storms in city parks and boulevards. This alternative is permitted by City Code.
The applicant is intentionally not planting additional trees along the south and west side of the
Designed Outdoor Recreation Area (DORA) to protect and preserve access to sunlight to the
apartment building and the DORA.
Tree Replacement:
The applicant is proposing to remove nearly all the trees including all three significant trees. The
removal of these trees will require at least 79 caliper inches of new trees to be planted. This
translates into approximately 29 trees. The applicant is proposing to plant 10 trees (3 deciduous
and 7 conifers). The applicant will pay the required tree replacement fee ($5,405) into the city
tree fund for the remaining 19 trees. These funds will be used to replace trees lost to disease and
storms in city parks and boulevards.
Screening:
The landscaping will be arranged in such a way as to provide some privacy along the side
property lines. Five conifers will be planted along the east side property line to provide some
privacy for the neighboring apartment building currently under construction. Arborvitae will
also be planted to provide additional screening.
The west side property line will be screened
by a six foot privacy fence and numerous
arborvitae which will provide a green wall.
This screening proposal meets code and is the
result of conversations with the neighbor
during the neighborhood meeting.
Designed Outdoor Recreation Area:
The property is 20,854 square feet in area, and
12% of the land (2,503 square feet) must be
utilized for DORA. The applicant is
proposing 3,000 square feet of DORA to be
located on the west, south, and east side of the
property. The applicant states that the purpose
of the DORA is to provide a variety of
recreation opportunities which includes Bocce
Ball and other games, grilling, dog run. The
landscaping plan shows additional amenities
such as the grill tables and benches.
City Council Meeting of September 2, 2014 (Item No. 8a) Page 6
Title: Conditional Use Permit – 4101 31st Street Apartments
Utilities:
The Zoning Ordinance requires all utilities for new construction to be buried underground.
Grading and Stormwater
The property is relatively flat, and slopes slightly to the west and southwest. The proposed
grading plan will slightly modify the current grades to create the building pad; however the
existing drainage patterns will be maintained.
The applicant proposes one infiltration field to control stormwater runoff, which will be located
in the rear yard on the southwest corner of the property. The basin will be appropriately
landscaped as a rain garden. The field, which has been reviewed by the City Engineering
Department, will contain and treat runoff from the property.
Additional permits from the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District will be required prior to
beginning construction on the site.
Park Dedication:
Park dedication is required in the amount of $1,500 per unit for a total of $19,500.
Trail dedication is also required in the amount of $225 per unit for a total of $2,925.
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT ANALYSIS:
Multiple-family dwellings are allowed in the R-4 Multiple-Family Residence Zoning District by
Conditional Use Permit. As part of the review, City Code requires that the proposal meet the
following conditions. Staff finds the plan meets the conditional use permit requirements.
1. 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.
The property is located one block south of County Road 25, which is classified as an arterial
roadway in the Comprehensive plan. Direct access is provided to County Road 25 by Inglewood
Ave to the west of the development, and Glenhurst Ave which is located to the east of the
development. There are other similar sized multiple-family dwellings on this same block.
2. At minimum of 12% of the building lot shall be developed as Designed Outdoor
Recreation Area (DORA).
The site is approximately 20,854 square feet. 12% of the site is 2,500 square feet. The proposal
is showing 3,000 square feet of DORA which represents 14% of the property size. The DORA is
being consolidated in one area of the lot to provide a large lawn with recreation opportunities
such as bocce ball, grilling and sun bathing. The area is intentionally being landscaped with few
trees to provide direct access to sun light which the applicant has identified as a priority for the
development given all the mature trees and shade in the area.
3. The minimum spacing between buildings shall be the average heights of the
buildings.
There is only one building proposed, so this provision does not apply.
4. All buildings shall be located a minimum of 15 feet from the back of the curb line of
internal private roadways or parking lots.
The driveway and parking area are shown to be 15 feet from the building, so this provision is
met.
City Council Meeting of September 2, 2014 (Item No. 8a) Page 7
Title: Conditional Use Permit – 4101 31st Street Apartments
5. If parking is accommodated on the required public or private road system, it must
meet minimum public street width requirements of this chapter to allow on-street parking.
The proposal does not utilize on-street parking to meet the required number of parking spaces.
6. Sidewalks with a minimum width of five feet shall be provided along all sides of the
lot that abut a public street. Sidewalks shall also be provided between the public street and
parking areas to all building entrances.
A six foot wide sidewalk is proposed along 31st Street West. Additional sidewalks will be
provided from the parking areas to the building entrance.
City Council Meeting of September 2, 2014 (Item No. 8a) Page 8
Title: Conditional Use Permit – 4101 31st Street Apartments
PLANNING COMMISSION:
The plan proposed to the Planning Commission included the following three variances. (The
setbacks listed below are different than those shown in the current proposal because the building
shape and location in the current proposal were altered to eliminate all variances.)
1. An 8 foot variance to the required 21 foot, 9 inch side yard. This would have allowed the
building to be 13 feet, 9 inches from the east side property line.
2. A 14 foot variance to the required 25 foot rear yard for the corner of the building only. This
would have allowed the southeast corner of the building to be 11 feet from the rear property
line.
3. A 15 foot variance to the required 15 foot setback between the building and the parking lot.
This would have allowed the parking lot to be located directly adjacent to the building.
The Planning Commission conducted the public hearing and received comments from the public
expressing concern about the requested variances. A concern was also received about the hours
of construction. City Code allows construction from 7am to 10pm on weekdays and 9am and
10pm on weekends and holidays.
The Planning Commission recommended approval of the CUP, but recommended denial of all
three variances.
As a result, the applicant met with the neighbors to review the proposal and their concerns. The
plans were revised to eliminate the variances and try to meet the concerns expressed by the
neighbors.
City Council Meeting of September 2, 2014 (Item No. 8a) Page 9
Title: Conditional Use Permit – 4101 31st Street Apartments
NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING:
A neighborhood meeting was conducted, and the site plan was changed in the following manner
in response to comments received:
1. Increase screening between the parking lot and the house to the east.
2. Moved the driveway and parking area further away from the house to the east. The original
plan showed the driveway and parking area to be four feet from the property line. The
current plan shows the driveway to be seven feet from the property line and the parking area
to be 8.5 feet from the side property line.
3. Reduced the number of bedrooms from 20 to 17.
4. Reduced the number of parking spaces outside the building from four to two.
5. Moved the entrance to the garage further south so that headlights would not shine into the
windows of the house as vehicles leave the garage.
6. The plan presented to the Planning Commission included three variances. The proposal was
altered so that the variances were no longer needed. This resulted in the building being
further away from the east property line and the removal of two outside parking spaces.
Also, the patio was relocated so that it is between the parking spaces and the building.

2. The City Council has considered the advice and recommendation of the Planning
Commission (Case No. 14-19-CUP) and the effect of the proposed conditional use permit on the
health, safety and welfare of the occupants of the surrounding lands, existing and anticipated

health, safety, or general welfare of the community nor will it cause serious traffic congestion
nor hazards, nor will it seriously depreciate surrounding property values, and the proposed
multiple-family dwelling is in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the Zoning
Ordinance and the Comprehensive Plan.
4. The contents of Planning Case File 14-19-CUP are hereby entered into and made part of the
public hearing record and the record of decision for this case.

3. Public Hearings
A. Conditional Use Permit with Variances for a 13-unit Apartment Building
Location: 4101 31st Street W.
Applicant: William Wells Architect
Case No.: 14-19-CUP and 14-20-VAR
Gary Morrison, Assistant Zoning Administrator, presented the staff report. The request is for a
conditional use permit to allow a three-story, 13 unit apartment building with structured parking.
Variances are also being requested for the east side setback, rear setback, and the required
spacing between the building and interior driveway. Mr. Morrison reviewed the zoning analysis
of the proposal. He reviewed the site plan.
Mr. Morrison discussed the request for an 8 foot variance to the required 21 foot, 9 inch side
yard. He reviewed the request for a 14 foot variance to the required 25 foot rear yard for the
corner of the building only. He discussed the request for a 15 foot variance to the required 15
foot setback between the building and the parking lot.
Mr. Morrison stated that staff recommends approval of the Conditional Use Permit and three
variances subject to conditions.
Commissioner Kramer asked if the applicant also owns the building to the east of the property.
Mr. Morrison replied that the applicant is not the owner of the building to the east.
Commissioner Kramer asked for more details about the south half of the building being jogged
to the left.
Mr. Morrison responded that the advantage to moving the building to the east is that it allows the
applicant to consolidate all the Designed Outdoor Recreation Area (DORA). It also allows for
off-street parking. It also allows the entrance to the structured parking to be on the west side of
the building rather than the front. Additionally, it allows the lobby to be towards the street.

Chair Carper asked if the rear corner of the lot was a normal square cut rather than angled would
any variances be required?
Mr. Morrison said if it was a regular property line there would be no variance for the rear
setback.
Commissioner Johnston-Madison asked how many units were in the adjacent apartment building
which is under construction.
Mr. Morrison said there are 7 units in the adjacent building.
William Wells, project architect, stated they have tried to balance a lot of issues in the project,
maximize the DORA space and make the project the best it could be with the smallest number of
variances having very little impact on adjacent property owners. He said moving the project a
little bit closer to the property line allows the DORA space to be maximized, functional and
usable. Mr. Wells said there are challenges with the angled rear property line. He remarked that
it is woodsy so there shouldn’t be any impact on the adjacent property owner. He added that
there is a very steep slope there as well.
Commissioner Kramer said he was concerned about noise and the close proximity of the two
buildings. He asked if the applicant had considered moving the building to the west and
increasing the space between the two buildings.
Mr. Wells and Josh Brandsted, property owner, said the disadvantage would be separation of
DORA.
Mr. Morrison spoke about a provision in the code where 50 ft. of wall length is allowed at the
minimum setback, which in this case is 11.9 ft. He explained the formula regarding setback
when the wall is longer than 50 ft.
Mr. Wells said one of the benefits of keeping DORA off the property line would be noise
reduction between the two buildings.
Commissioner Kramer spoke about the unassigned parking spaces and the traffic coming in and
out. He said he would advocate for a staggered building and moving the entrance of the
building further south. This would eliminate the need for the first variance.
Mr. Wells responded that would break up the DORA space and the cars would have a negative
impact on the adjacent property owner as the driveway would be very long.
Mr. Morrison stated that staff did not have concerns about access in and out of the unassigned
parking spaces.
Chair Carper asked if a neighborhood meeting was held regarding the proposal.
Mr. Wells said he met with the adjacent property owner to the west.
The Chair opened the public hearing.

Title: Conditional Use Permit – 4101 31st Street Apartments
Chair Carper read a petition in opposition to the variances signed by 18 residents of the 4000 31st
Street block.
Andrew Brenner, developer and builder of the property to the east 4013 31st St. W. introduced
himself. He said he was also the manager of the property to the west, Inglewood Boutique
Condominiums. He stated the residents of Inglewood Boutique are concerned about screening
and they would like to see Black Hills spruce for screening. He said they are also concerned
about the relocation of telephone poles on their property. Mr. Brenner said he is concerned about
water from the pond seeping into the underground parking garage at the Inglewood
condominiums. He would like an assurance about that situation.
Mr. Brenner said he is very upset regarding his property on the east, 4013 31st St. W., because he
was before the Planning Commission and City Council one year ago and he built according to
code. He said he spent 100 hours preparing drawings to fit into zoning code. He said he was
told he could not get variances for his project. Mr. Brenner said he was told the City does not
want long lines of square buildings. He spoke about the cut-outs in the building design to meet
zoning code. Mr. Brenner said he complied with code and as a result has odd shaped units which
were very difficult to build. He discussed the winding staircases which those units required. He
discussed the wall structure of those units which required extra soundproofing. He said the
staircases and soundproofing were very expensive. He said the front of the building was very
expensive. He said he was not able to have an enclosed garbage unit in the parking garage
because of the cut outs which were required. He discussed the cut out on the east side which
prevented one of the units from having a staircase. Mr. Brenner said staff told him to reduce
the size of the building. He added that the cost of the zoning changes cost him about
$100,000.00. Mr. Brenner stated he is asking for fairness. He said he didn’t get any variances.
He said the issue is the buildings being so close without a physical barrier. He spoke about
hardship criteria for variances, saying the front and rear of his lot is shaped oddly and the lot is
not square. He said that was not considered as a hardship and he doesn’t think it should be a
hardship for anyone else.
Mr. Brenner commented that he was required to retain the existing lilacs at his building and that
consistency with that policy should be maintained. He stated that this is the opportunity for
zoning to be fair. He said he did not get any breaks and his next door neighbor shouldn’t get
any breaks. Mr. Brenner discussed his DORA. He said the new building will block the view of
his building, it is too close, and higher than his building.
Mr. Morrison discussed the rerouting of the telephone pole locations. He said there shouldn’t be
an impact to either of the apartment buildings.
Mr. Morrison spoke about variances saying that every case is different and the variances are
warranted depending on circumstances impacting a property. He said the conversation staff
typically has with applicants regarding variances is that they show staff why it is needed. If an
applicant can stand before the Planning Commission and City Council and argue the merits of a
variance, and there is a benefit to it and/or it is definitely mitigating the impact, by all means an
application should be made. That is what the variance process is for. He remarked that on Mr.
Brenner’s building the question very simply is what is gained and what is the argument for the
variance. Mr. Morrison said staff does not tell people not to apply for a variance. They have the
right to do that. He said staff tries to prepare applicants that they have to have a case if they are
going to argue it before the Planning Commission and City Council.

Mr. Morrison spoke about the merit in Mr. Well’s variance requests.
He said Mr. Brenner has received the benefit of variances for a different project, his condo
project on Inglewood Ave.
Regarding Mr. Brenner’s concern about the holding pond, Mr. Morrison said that the watershed
district, the City’s environmental coordinator and the City’s engineering department have
reviewed the plans.
Chair Carper closed the public hearing.
Commissioner Person asked staff to comment on a remark from the petition that parking stall
No. 1 is 5 feet from the house.
Mr. Morrison said that parking stall is located considerably more than 5 feet from the house.
Commissioner Person asked if the 4 foot sideyard is conforming.
Mr. Morrison replied that is legally conforming.
Commissioner Robertson said he has no problem with the conditional use permit. He said he
thought the building could be built without the variances. He commented that the DORA
argument is weak. He said a DORA in two or three pieces might be better. He said the front 60
feet could be jogged rather than the rear 60 feet which would provide more separation between
the two buildings. He said he doesn’t like the 15 ft. variance as it would affect units on the first
floor. Commissioner Robertson stated that it is too much building for the lot. He said he did not
see a compelling reason to approve the variance requests.
Commissioner Johnston-Madison stated she agreed with Robertson’s comments. She said she’s
concerned that a neighborhood meeting was not held. She suggested that occur prior to the
Council meeting. She concluded by saying she could not support the variances.
Commissioner Kramer said he wasn’t against the size of the building. He said economically that
often makes sense. He stated that the building could be much more neighborly without
variances.
Commissioner Robertson made a motion to recommend approval of the Conditional Use Permit
to allow a 13 unit apartment building. Commissioner Kramer seconded the motion, and the
motion passed on a vote of 4-1 (Johnston-Madison opposed).
Commissioner Robertson made a motion to recommend denial of the three variances requested.
Commissioner Kramer seconded the motion, and the motion to deny passed on a vote of 4-1
(Carper opposed).
