Ms. Stroth presented the staff report and stated that Mr. Jason Alvey made application for

LLC, specialty beer store at 5630 West 36th Street. She indicated that The Four Firkins
City Council Meeting of August 1, 2011 (Item 3a) Page 2
Subject: Special City Council Minutes of July 11, 2011
has been operating since 2008 at 8009 Minnetonka Boulevard and the new larger location
will provide approximately 1,800 square feet. She advised that Mr. Alvey will begin
construction at the new location once the off-sale liquor license is approved by the City.
Mayor Jacobs opened the public hearing.
Mr. Jason Alvey, owner of The Four Firkins, appeared before the City Council and stated
that when he began operating his business three years ago, the concept was unproven and
unique in Minnesota and his business is the only beer-only store in Minnesota. He added
that the business has succeeded beyond his projections, has become a destination store for
the Twin Cities and surrounding states, and has achieved recognition on an international
level. He indicated that he looks forward to remaining part of the St. Louis Park
community as his business continues to grow.
Mayor Jacobs closed the public hearing.
It was moved by Councilmember Mavity, seconded by Councilmember Sanger, to
approve an off-sale intoxicating liquor license to The Four Firkins – Lagers, Ales and
Wines, LLC, located at 5630 West 36th Street with the license term commencing after the
closure date of the current licensed premises location at 8009 Minnetonka Boulevard
through remainder of the license term ending on March 1, 2012.
The motion passed 6-0 (Councilmember Finkelstein absent).
7. Requests, Petitions, and Communications from the Public – None
8. Resolutions, Ordinances, Motions and Discussion Items
8a. Zoning Ordinance Amendment for Temporary Uses – 1st Reading
Mr. Morrison presented the staff report and proposed amendments to Sections 36-82 and
36-142 of the Zoning Ordinance. He advised that the amendments include allowing the
City Council to approve temporary uses longer than 14 days with conditions, as well as
allowing the City Council to approve a temporary sign plan. He added that the
amendment also clarifies the definition of Carnivals and Festivals by removing the term
“promotional events” because there is a separate section of the Code that regulates
promotional events.
Councilmember Ross asked if “promotional events” should be replaced with the term
“special events” since there may be events other than festivals or carnivals taking place in
the City, especially now that the Convention and Visitors Bureau is in place.
Mr. Morrison explained that the Ordinance identifies carnivals and festivals as examples
of types of events and authorized temporary uses would still be considered on a case by
case basis.
Councilmember Sanger expressed concern that there were no parameters suggested for
how big temporary signs could be or for how long signs might be posted.
City Council Meeting of August 1, 2011 (Item 3a) Page 3
Subject: Special City Council Minutes of July 11, 2011
Mr. Morrison advised that the length of time allowed for temporary signs coincides with
the length of time the event is taking place. He stated that the City Council has the
authority to approve the duration and size of signs, so when any event comes along, it is
difficult to define the parameters within the Ordinance and staff chose to leave that open,
subject to City Council approval.
Councilmember Sanger indicated this could mean that a promoter of a festival could
come in with an expansive signage plan, leaving the City in a position to negotiate
against that type of plan, which could mean there are signs all over town. She requested
that staff provide Council, between the first and second readings, with some guidelines
relative to signage that are still flexible but not totally open-ended.
Councilmember Ross agreed with Councilmember Sanger and indicated there could be
advertising six months prior to an event. She suggested that the signage provisions also
state that signs must be removed within “x” number of days after an event.
Councilmember Santa requested that the signage provisions include language regarding
directional signs.
Councilmember Mavity asked if the Code contains sufficient language to address safety
issues, e.g., a ten-story tent.
Mr. Morrison replied that this would be covered under the tent permit process.
It was moved by Councilmember Sanger, seconded by Councilmember Ross, to approve
First Reading of Ordinance, Amending the St. Louis Park Ordinance Code Relating to
Zoning by Amending Sections 36-82 and 36-142, with the understanding that staff will
make further amendments to the Ordinance consistent with Council comments regarding
signage, to be presented at the Second Reading on July 18, 2011.
The motion passed 6-0 (Councilmember Finkelstein absent).
9. Communications
Mayor Jacobs complimented staff on the great fireworks over the 4th of July.

2. Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission 2010 Annual Report and 2011 Work
Plan Discussion
Ms. Walsh presented the staff report and introduced Ms. Christina Barberot, Chair of the Parks
and Recreation Advisory Commission.
Ms. Barberot discussed highlights of the Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission’s 2010
Annual Report, including fostering better relationships with the various youth associations,
installing different types of recycling bins in all the City’s major parks, participation in the
Minnehaha Creek cleanup, acquisition of park and trail dedication fees for the West End project,
ongoing educational outreach regarding Emerald Ash Borer, participation in preparation of the
Community Recreation Survey, and ongoing work with Friends of the Arts. She also discussed a
new program implemented at the Oak Hill Splash Pad intended to address overcrowding
concerns. She advised that non-residents are charged a fee and groups are required to register in
advance, and the program has been a success. She then presented the Parks and Recreation
Advisory Commission’s 2011 Goals, and indicated that the Commission’s work is currently
focused on the results of the Community Recreation Survey.
Councilmember Mavity requested that the Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission‘s 2011
work plan include discussions regarding environmental stewardship and finding ways to
collaborate with residents, e.g., buckthorn removal. She also suggested that the City put in more
water fountains in the parks and eventually ban plastic water bottles.
Councilmember Sanger requested that the Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission work
with the Police Advisory Commission regarding the rules for right-of-way when bike trails cross
streets. She stated that the current rules are very confusing and there needs to be consistent
interpretation of the rules for motorists as well as bicyclists.
City Council Meeting of August 1, 2011 (Item 3b) Page 2
Subject: Study Session Minutes of July 11, 2011
Councilmember Santa requested that the Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission work on
enhancing its relationship with Community Education and finding ways to work together. She
stated that she has received a lot of positive feedback regarding the seating provided on the new
trail on 36th Street as well as the benches provided in the area between 36th Street and 34th Street.
She encouraged the City to continue to provide this type of seating in the City’s open spaces.
Mayor Jacobs requested that the Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission look into whether
smoking should be banned in the City’s parks.
Councilmember Santa suggested that this effort be coordinated with the Police Advisory
Commission.
It was the consensus of the City Council to request that the Parks and Recreation Advisory
Commission, in collaboration with the Police Advisory Commission, provide Council with a
recommendation regarding banning smoking in City parks.
Councilmember Sanger requested that the Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission discuss
the City’s policy regarding availability of unlocked restrooms in City parks.
Mayor Jacobs expressed the City Council’s thanks to the Parks and Recreation Advisory
Commission for their ongoing efforts on behalf of residents.
3. Minnehaha Creek Restoration – Louisiana Avenue to Meadowbrook Road
Ms. Walsh presented the staff report and introduced Mr. James Wisker with the Minnehaha
Creek Watershed District and Minnehaha Creek Watershed District Board Member Jeff Casale.
Mr. Wisker presented an overview of the Minnehaha Creek restoration/re-meander project,
intended to restore the creek to a more natural channel and improve the floodplain characteristics
of Minnehaha Creek. He reviewed the trails, storm water, design considerations, and next steps,
noting that the Watershed District will be hosting community informational meetings and will
then order the project and move into the design phase of the project. He stated that one of the
key design elements will be to model this project off the success of the Methodist Hospital re-
meander project. He discussed the plans for making the canoe launch area handicap accessible at
the Louisiana Avenue site. He stated that one of the Watershed District’s key goals is recreation
and providing opportunities for people to enjoy the Watershed District’s restoration projects. He
discussed two options for trail location and the City’s preference for bituminous trails wherever
possible, which can be accommodated through a large section of the corridor. He added that the
Watershed District will continue to work with the City regarding design of the trail.
Councilmember Santa stated that people are interested in using this area in the winter and
requested that the trail remain accessible year-round.
Councilmember Mavity encouraged the Watershed District to engage area businesses in
discussions regarding the restoration project and added there may be opportunities for partnering
with area businesses on educational signs, clean-up, installation of benches, etc.
Mr. Wisker agreed and stated that the Watershed District has met with representatives from
Target to discuss storm water run-off.
City Council Meeting of August 1, 2011 (Item 3b) Page 3
Subject: Study Session Minutes of July 11, 2011
Councilmember Sanger expressed support for the project. She urged the Watershed District to
enhance the system for canoe rentals and to provide shuttle service.
Mr. Fulton stated that the restoration project will require a Conditional Use Permit for Council
approval later this year.
4. Deer Management Policy
Ms. Walsh presented the staff report and possible revisions to the City’s current deer
management policy based on previous Council discussion in February. She noted that any
changes to the policy would be formally adopted at a City Council meeting. She advised that the
DNR does not require any type of public notification to remove deer and suggested that the City
work with the City of Golden Valley in managing the deer population by obtaining a joint
permit; staff also suggests hiring a private contractor to remove deer.
Councilmember Sanger supported the revisions to the deer management policy and stated that
residents have expressed significant concerns regarding the deer population. She added that she
felt the acceptable deer count numbers could be lower. She indicated that the City needs to
enhance its educational outreach to residents that they should not feed the wildlife.
Councilmember Ross agreed and supported the idea of partnering with Golden Valley.
Councilmember Mavity suggested that paragraph II.A. of the policy be amended to state that the
comprehensive educational program will be implemented each year.
It was the consensus of the majority of the City Councilmembers in attendance to direct staff to
revise the City’s policy regarding deer management throughout the City.
It was also the consensus of the majority of the City Councilmembers in attendance to partner
with neighboring cities, including Golden Valley, regarding the management of the deer
population, and to work to ensure that the deer management policies complement each other.
Council discussed the notification process and the public record regarding this discussion.
Mayor Jacobs stated that this is a highly controversial policy and there will be residents in
agreement with it and residents who will be livid about the revised policy. He added that the
City has a long history of providing notification to residents and cautioned Council about
changing the policy and not providing adequate notice to residents.
Councilmember Mavity stated that she needs to further study the material and would like to take
additional time to review it.
Councilmember Sanger stated that the revisions to the policy will come back to Council with a
staff presentation prior to formal action, just like any other matter requiring Council action.
Councilmember Santa stated that this is a policy which can be changed by Council at any time.
She indicated that the Park Perspective should publish an article about wildlife feeding, health
hazards, reporting deer/car accidents, and should contain the revised policy, noting that the City
is managing the urban herd in conjunction with Golden Valley.
City Council Meeting of August 1, 2011 (Item 3b) Page 4
Subject: Study Session Minutes of July 11, 2011
Councilmember Ross pointed out that the City has already been managing the deer population in
the City and will continue to do so based on the revised policy.
Mr. Harmening stated that another draft of the policy will be presented to Council at an
upcoming meeting, followed by formal adoption at a regular City Council meeting.
5. Review of Water and Sanitary Sewer Service Line Policies
Mr. Rardin presented the staff report.
Mr. Harmening explained that the City has had a longstanding policy of requiring property
owners to maintain, repair, and replace the water service line from their home to the water main
in the street. He indicated that a question has arisen as to whether the City’s policy should be
revised to state that the City is responsible for the water service line from the shut-off at
approximately the right of way line out to the water main. He indicated that this would require
the City to take responsibility for approximately 12,000 water service lines in the City and would
cost approximately $750,000 per year, which would be paid through the water utility by
spreading the cost throughout the City.
Councilmember Mavity asked about the anticipated lifespan of the pipe. She also asked if
repaving the road following a line break is assessed to the property owner.
Mr. Rardin replied that the lifespan is approximately 70 years and varies depending on size and
use of the pipe. He stated that the costs include the road cost which is assessed back to the
homeowners.
Councilmember Santa pointed out that if a street is already torn up as part of the City’s street
maintenance program, a property owner has the option of replacing their service line at that time.
Councilmember Ross stated that it is cost prohibitive to consider an increase in rates to justify a
program like this.
Councilmember Sanger agreed that there are obvious prohibitive cost issues with this type of
program. She added that she did not feel any changes could be made until the City established a
clear, coherent policy regarding ownership of anything in the City’s right-of-way, including
trees, sewer lines, and responsibility for snowplowing.
Councilmember Mavity agreed, but stated that it does not appear that the City is being
overwhelmed with requests as it relates to ownership of service lines. She felt this was not a
major issue and did not require action by Council at this time.
Mayor Jacobs expressed support for changing the backwater valve program to include the
additional areas proposed by staff.
Councilmember Sanger suggested publishing some educational pieces in the Park Perspective
regarding the importance of this program.
Councilmember Mavity stated that Council does not need to individually approve the properties
eligible for the Backwater Valve program.
City Council Meeting of August 1, 2011 (Item 3b) Page 5
Subject: Study Session Minutes of July 11, 2011
It was the consensus of the City Council to authorize staff to approve the properties eligible for
the Backwater Valve program.
Councilmember Santa requested that staff give a heads-up to Council when staff informs
residents their water will be shut off if they do not make needed service line repairs.
Councilmember Sanger requested further information regarding the recent publication on water
quality.
Mr. Anderson stated that this is a Federally-mandated publication and must be mailed to every
water user in the City.
Councilmember Sanger suggested that the City’s lobbyist be asked to work on getting this
mandate changed because it appears to be a waste of money and few people read the publication.
6. Change in Drug Task Force Affiliation
Mr. Luse presented the staff report and proposed change in the City’s affiliation with the
Southwest Metro Drug Task Force effective January 1, 2012. He discussed the consortium led
by the Hennepin County Sheriff’s Office called CISA which shares information related to crime
trends and patterns in the area, including Minneapolis. He added that there are no hard feelings
with the Northwest Metro Drug Task Force and the proposed affiliation with the Southwest
Metro Drug Task Force represents a better model for the City.
It was the consensus of the City Council to support the Police Department’s change in affiliation
with a drug task force to the Southwest Metro Drug Task Force.
7. Communications/Meeting Check-in (Verbal)
Mr. Harmening presented a letter from Mn/DOT regarding the negative declaration on the freight
rail EAW. He stated that the document is available online and agreed to provide Council with
the entire document.
The meeting adjourned at 9:13 p.m.
Written Reports provided and documented for recording purposes only:

8b. Zoning Ordinance Amendment for Temporary Uses – 2nd Reading
Ordinance No. 2402-11
Mr. Morrison presented the staff report and proposed ordinance amendment. He indicated
that following the first reading on July 11, staff revised the ordinance to address
Council’s request to define the parameters for signage. He then recited the amended
language contained in the ordinance at subsection c.
Councilmember Ross requested clarification regarding the language pertaining to the
duration of promotional signage on site prior to an event.
Mr. Morrison explained that the each property in this district is allowed up to 80 square
feet of signage under the standard Zoning Ordinance, but properties are only allowed to
have signs 30 days per calendar year. He added that the provision in the Zoning
Ordinance amendment would allow the event to display temporary signage on site for
more than 30 days during the duration of an event.
Mr. Locke stated that the sign ordinance currently allows signs on a property announcing
an event on that property if it meets the City’s standards in terms of size.
It was moved by Councilmember Sanger, seconded by Councilmember Ross, to adopt
Ordinance No. 2402-11 amending the St. Louis Park Ordinance Code Zoning Sections

8c. Cavalia Temporary Use Permit
Resolution No. 11-072
Mr. Morrison presented the staff report and explained that Cavalia has requested a
temporary use permit to conduct its show at 1511 Utica Avenue South. He stated that the
site is located in the southwest quadrant of Highways 394 and 100 on a 13 acre site which
is part of the West End PUD. He advised that the Cavalia show is a mix of equestrian
and performing arts, multimedia and special effects with shows scheduled for 8:00 p.m.
Tuesday-Friday, 3:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. on Saturday, and 2:00 p.m. on Sunday. He
stated that Cavalia plans to begin set-up on August 19 and complete the tear-down by
November 18, with the first show scheduled for September 21. He added that the final
scheduled show would be October 23, but could be extended to November 6. He
reviewed the site plan and discussed traffic and temporary signage planned for the event.
He indicated that the Police Department has reviewed the plan and requested two off-
duty police officers two hours before the show and two hours after the show to help direct
traffic and provide crowd control. He stated that Cavalia has agreed to and will pay for
the two off-duty police officers and added that Cavalia has requested that the number of
off-duty police officers be reduced to one or zero depending on need because Cavalia is
confident the off-duty police officers will not be needed. He reviewed the proposed
parking plan, noting that there are 680 parking spaces to the south which will provide
ample parking in the area. He also reviewed the lighting plan and stated the impact of
lighting will be minimal and is comparable to the lights currently in the Highway 394 and
100 area.
Councilmember Ross expressed concern about illegal parking at some of the businesses
in the area, particularly during business hours.
Mr. Morrison stated that the shows will be held after business hours at 8:00 p.m. on
Tuesday through Friday and added that Duke has had conversations with the office
tenants regarding their obligation to provide parking during business hours. He added
that Duke is aware that patrons may be parking in private lots and Duke will be putting
together a plan to address this.
Councilmember Mavity asked if the parking on the surface parking lot will be paid
parking or free.
Mr. Morrison replied that parking in this lot will be $10.
Councilmember Mavity indicated that most people will likely navigate to the free parking
areas and expressed concern that the free parking will be used up, requiring moviegoers
or other patrons to pay for parking.
Mr. Morrison stated that Duke has been part of the City’s conversations and it is
anticipated that Cavalia patrons will park at the West End and dine at a restaurant prior to
the show, with some patrons using the free parking available in the ramps and VIP
patrons paying $10 to park close to the event.
Councilmember Sanger indicated that the Cavalia show dates overlap with the
International Film Festival at West End and expressed concern about demand for parking.
City Council Meeting of August 1, 2011 (Item 3c) Page 6
Subject: City Council Minutes of July 18, 2011
Mr. Morrison stated that parking demand has been factored in and noted that there is a
significant amount of parking available. He indicated that there will be approximately
600-800 cars arriving for the Cavalia show and all of these cars could park in the $10
spaces. He added that there are 1,900 parking spaces on the Duke property, 1,400
parking spaces at the theater, and 900 underground parking spaces.
Mr. Locke pointed out that the International Film Festival uses the existing theater and
does not represent a new addition to the parking demand for a typical movie night.
It was moved by Councilmember Sanger, seconded by Councilmember Ross, to adopt
Resolution No. 11-072 Approving Cavalia’s Application for Temporary Use Permit to
Operate at 1511 Utica Avenue South.
The motion passed 7-0.
8d. Joint Powers Agreement with the City of Golden Valley – Cavalia at The
West End
Mr. Locke presented the staff report and advised that the proposed Joint Powers
Agreement with the City of Golden Valley makes it possible for St. Louis Park to treat
the Golden Valley portion of the Cavalia site as if it were in St. Louis Park for all typical
day-to-day operations, including inspections, police, etc. He noted that Golden Valley
reserves its land use controls for the property located in Golden Valley and will be
following the same process as the City related to land use approval.
It was moved by Councilmember Sanger, seconded by Councilmember Santa, to approve
the proposed Joint Powers Agreement with the City of Golden Valley.
The motion passed 7-0.

TITLE:
Homes Within Reach: City Funded Revolving Line-of-Credit to Assist with Acquisition and
Rehab Costs of Affordable Homeownership Units.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Motion to approve increasing the revolving line-of-credit that the City previously approved for
Homes Within Reach (HWR), also known as West Hennepin Affordable Housing Land Trust
(WHAHLT), from the current amount of $100,000, to $250,000.
POLICY CONSIDERATION:
Does the City Council wish to increase the revolving line-of-credit to provide greater flexibility
with an established tool that would enable the City to further facilitate affordable
homeownership opportunities in our community?
BACKGROUND:
For the June 13, 2011 Study Session, staff provided a written report describing a proposal to
increase the amount of the revolving line-of-credit that the City currently has in place to assist
WHAHLT to provide long-term affordable homeownership opportunities for low-moderate
income families. No questions or comments were received on the proposal.
The goal of WHAHLT, a private non-profit, is to provide ownership opportunities for working
households in suburban Hennepin County. The buyer pays for the cost of the home only, and the
Land Trust purchases the land that it then leases back to the buyer for 99 years. Homebuyers
must have incomes at or below 80% of the median area income, or $64,200 for a household of
four. All of the homes are under the resale-restricted domain of the Land Trust and are designed
to stay affordable for low-moderate income households through one resale after another without
the need for additional subsidies.
The homeowner is responsible for the payment of all real estate taxes on the house and on the
land. The ground lease between the HWR and the homebuyer protects the assets of the land by
providing the Land Trust certain rights to safeguard the condition of the home and the continuity
of the homeownership. The homeowner may sell his/her home only to HWR or a qualified HWR
buyer. The resale price is limited by a formula which more than likely (based on market
conditions) allows the seller to recover the original cost of the house plus a modest profit. When
a homeowner sells a HWR home, they receive 35% of the appreciation of the home. The use of
the Land Trust ensures that public money supports the long-term affordability of homes,
compared to affordable housing models that benefit only the first buyers.
To date, the City has provided financial contributions to HWR to assist in the acquisition and
rehabilitation of seven St. Louis Park single-family homes that were then sold, using the land
trust model, to low income households. The City allocated CDBG and Housing Rehab funds to
assist with acquisition costs and has budgeted funds in 2011 to assist with the purchase of two
City Council Meeting of August 1, 2011 (Item No. 4a) Page 2
Subject: Homes Within Reach: City Funded Revolving Line-of-Credit
more single-family homes and one duplex. HWR leverages the City’s funds with funding from
the MN Housing Finance Agency, HOME funds, County Affordable Housing Incentive Funds
(AHIF) and funds from the Metropolitan Council.
The funds from the line-of-credit provide gap financial assistance for the cost of acquisition,
maintenance/repair and rehab prior to the sale of the home to a homebuyer. The line-of-credit
saves HWR the cost of accessing funds through an interest bearing line-of-credit with a financial
lender.
Increasing the line-of-credit to a maximum of $250,000 would provide HWR the ability to
purchase and rehab two properties simultaneously if the opportunity presents itself, using both
the City’s line of credit and the line-of-credit from the HWR’s financial lender, Bremer Bank.
Currently, Bremer limits the use of its line-of-credit to one home at a time regardless of the
amount borrowed. Each draw on the line of credit will be interest free, except that any interest
HWR earns on the funds must be paid to the City. The City Manager will have full discretion to
approve or deny funding for each housing unit and the funds will be designated to fund
acquisition, rehab and repair costs. HWR will be required to submit a written request to the City
that includes the property’s address, estimated market value and scope of required rehab/repair
work. Purchase price and a closing statement will be submitted following the closing. A
portion of the funds will be repaid to the City upon sale of the home to a homebuyer with the
remaining balance due within 90 days.
HWR accessed the City’s line-of-credit to assist in financing the rehab of the last two properties
purchased. On both occasions, the line-of-credit was repaid upon sale of the home in accordance
with the Agreement between the City and HWR.
FINANCIAL OR BUDGET CONSIDERATION:
The Housing Rehab fund will be the source of funds utilized to establish the revolving line-of-
credit. In addition to the line-of-credit, the City will continue to provide financial assistance
through the allocation of Housing Rehab funds to facilitate the purchase of two homes and a
duplex in 2011. Brian Swanson, Controller, has reviewed the proposal and verified the use of
the Housing Rehab fund as the financial resource.
VISION CONSIDERATION:
This action is consistent with the Council’s strategic direction - “SLP is committed to Providing
a Well Maintained and Diverse Housing Stock”.
Increasing the line-of-credit provides greater flexibility to an existing tool for promoting the
City’s Strategic Direction focus area of “working towards affordable single-family home
ownership throughout the City” at minimal expense to the City.

EDA Meeting Action Item Resolution Other:
Study Session Discussion Item Written Report Other:
TITLE:
Bid Tabulation – City Hall Garage Roof Replacement, Project No. 2009-1700.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Motion to designate American Liberty Construction Inc. the lowest responsible bidder and
authorize execution of a contract with the firm in the amount of $347,000 for the City Hall
Garage Roof Replacement Project No. 2009-1700.
POLICY CONSIDERATION:
Does the City Council wish to continue with this project?
BACKGROUND:
The earth sheltered parking garage located on the west side of City Hall was constructed in 1979.
After 32 years of service, the original rubber membrane roof has surpassed its’ life expectancy
and is allowing water into the parking garage. In order to prevent structural deterioration and
water damage within the building, the roof membrane is due for replacement. The need for this
project was previously identified and an evaluation by a consulting engineer resulted in $385,000
being allocated for the project budget in the City’s Capital Improvement Program (this included
design, irrigation system improvements and contingency).
BID ANALYSIS:
On June 20, 2011 the City Council approved the plans and specifications for the project and
authorized staff to advertise for bids. Five firms submitted completed bids for the project. The
low base bid of $347,000 was submitted by American Liberty Construction.
Summary of the base bids received is as follows:
• American Liberty Construction $347,000
• SPS Infrastructure Inc. $375,869
• RAM Construction $434,000
• Central Roofing $438,955
• Morcon Construction $457,277
Staff has qualified American Liberty Construction by checking references and confirmed
favorable experiences.
DISCUSSION:
The low bid received results in an overall project cost slightly higher than the engineer’s
estimated total project cost. Accepting the low bid of $347,000 results in the following modified
project budget:
City Council Meeting of August 1, 2011 (Item No. 4b) Page 2
Subject: Bid Tabulation – City Hall Garage Roof Replacement Project No. 2009-1700
Construction Cost $347,000
Design Consultant $ 25,000
Irrigation System $ 5,000
Contingency $ 15,000
Revised Project Budget $392,000 (as compared to $385,000 estimate)
Two bid alternates were included in the bid package as outlined below. Given the outcome of the
bidding process and total project cost, staff is recommending these bid alternates not be included
at this time in the overall project.
Alternate #1 ($5,200) includes a crushed limestone walking path connecting the roof top
sidewalk to the sidewalks at the intersection of Minnetonka Blvd. and Raleigh. This path, or one
constructed of asphalt or concrete, could be added to the project as a change order at a later date
if a sufficient amount of the contingency budget is unused (or in a future year if so desired).
Alternate #2 ($15,000) was added during the design phase and includes a metal replacement
stairway and matching guard railing system leading from the top of the garage roof down to the
main parking lot. Based on the original building drawings, the existing concrete stairs should be
able to remain during this project. However, the stairs top anchoring point may need to be
removed during construction to properly install the waterproof membrane. A replacement
stairway was designed and specified in the bid package so we could rapidly accommodate a
change during construction if the roof replacement dictated that the stairs must be replaced.
Since the existing concrete stairs are beginning to deteriorate and will eventually need
replacement, this work was added as an alternate to consider. The recommendation is to not
approve the bid alternate at this time but to proceed with the stair replacement only if necessary
as a part of the roof project.
FINANCIAL OR BUDGET CONSIDERATION:
Going forward with this project the overall budget including design, construction and
contingency is proposed to increase slightly to $392,000. The funding source for this project is
the Capital Replacement Fund and has been a planned and budgeted project.
TIMELINE:
Construction is expected to begin during the last half of August with substantial completion
expected by September 30, 2011. Liquidated damages begin to accrue after October 14, 2011 if
all contracted work is not completed and approved.
VISION CONSIDERATION:
This project is consistent with the City Council’s Strategic Direction related to environmental
stewardship (green roof and landscaping).

RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Motion to designate American Liberty Construction Inc. the lowest responsible bidder and
authorize execution of a contract with the firm in the amount of $347,000 for the City Hall
Garage Roof Replacement Project No. 2009-1700.
POLICY CONSIDERATION:
Does the City Council wish to continue with this project?
BACKGROUND:
This supplemental report is being provided as a result of correspondence received from SPSI
(second low bidder) regarding the bidding process and the recommendation to award the bid to
American Liberty Construction (low bidder). The issues presented in the correspondence related
to the general contractor complying with the project specifications relating to attendance at a
mandatory pre-bid meeting and the qualifications and experience of the general contractor.
With regard to the attendance at the pre-bid meeting, the subcontractor (Spec 7) was in
attendance on behalf of American Liberty Construction. We have received joint correspondence
from American Liberty and Spec 7 indicating that Spec 7 represented American Liberty
Construction at the pre-bid meeting. The attendance of the Spec 7 representative at the pre-bid
meeting was reviewed by the City Attorney and it is his opinion that the low bidder has met the
pre-bid meeting requirement as outlined in the project specifications.
With regard to the qualifications of American Liberty, staff has undertaken reference checks and
the results indicate American Liberty Construction to be a responsible bidder for the garage roof
project.

Special Assessment - Water Service Line Repair at 9219 Cedar Lake Road.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Motion to Adopt Resolution authorizing the special assessment for the repair of the water service
line at 9219 Cedar Lake Road, St. Louis Park, MN - P.I.D. 07-117-21-32-0003.
POLICY CONSIDERATION:
The proposed action is consistent with policy previously established by the City Council.
BACKGROUND:
Louis Pius, owner of the single family residence at 9219 Cedar Lake Road, has requested the City to
authorize the repair of the water service line for his home and assess the cost against the property in
accordance with the City’s special assessment policy.
Analysis:
The City requires the repair of service lines to promote the general public health, safety and welfare
within the community. The special assessment policy for the repair or replacement of water or sewer
service lines for existing homes was adopted by the City Council in 1996. This program was put into
place because sometimes property owners face financial hardships when emergency repairs like this
are unexpectedly required.
Plans and permits for this service line repair work were completed, submitted, and approved by City
staff. The property owner hired a contractor and repaired the water service line in compliance with
current codes and regulations. Based on the completed work, this repair qualifies for the City’s
special assessment program. The property owner has petitioned the City to authorize the water service
line repair and special assess the cost of the repair. The total eligible cost of the repair has been
determined to be $5,850.00.
FINANCIAL OR BUDGET CONSIDERATION:
The City has funds in place to finance the cost of this special assessment.

TITLE:
Highway 7 / Louisiana Avenue Interchange Project – Noise Wall Resolution – Project No. 2012-
0100.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Motion to adopt Resolution authorizing removal of noise walls from the project.
POLICY CONSIDERATION:
Does the City Council wish to continue to take the necessary steps to keep this project on
schedule for construction commencing as early as 2012?
BACKGROUND:
History
The City’s Capital Improvement Program (C.I.P.) indentifies the Highway 7/Louisiana Avenue
intersection as a priority improvement project. The proposed project will provide for the
construction of a grade-separated interchange at Louisiana Avenue and Highway 7. The project
also includes pedestrian and bicycle friendly improvements along with re-configuration of the
frontage roads in order to improve access, safety, and traffic flow for both the Highway 7
corridor and Louisiana Avenue. This proposed improvement is essential in meeting long term
transportation and safety needs of both Mn/DOT and the City.
Phase 3 Activities
Phase 3 activities include Preliminary Design and Environmental Assessment. The
Environmental Assessment (EA) is nearing completion. The EA document was published in
mid-May. A project open house/public hearing was held on Thursday, June 2, 2011 in the City
Hall Council Chambers to provide an opportunity for the public to view the approved design
layout and provide testimony regarding the Environmental Assessment. Eleven people attended
the open house/public hearing. No formal comments were submitted or recorded at the meeting.
The 30 day comment period to allow interested parties to review and comment on the findings
has now concluded. Final approval of the EA is anticipated by mid to late August.
Noise Analysis
A noise analysis was conducted as part of the EA. The noise modeling for the proposed
interchange indicated that noise levels are expected to increase slightly in some areas, while
noise levels at other areas are predicted to experience no change or decrease slightly. According
to the noise analysis, several locations in the area currently exceed State of Minnesota daytime
and nighttime noise standards. The analysis also indicated that several locations will exceed the
standards after construction of the new interchange. A full copy of the noise study is available if
so desired by the City Council.
The cost-effectiveness of constructing noise barriers to mitigate traffic noise was calculated. A
20-foot high wall located in the northwest quadrant of the intersection (along the north side of
Highway 7 and west of the Louisiana Avenue) that achieved the minimum 5 decibel reduction
City Council Meeting of August 1, 2011 (Item No. 4f) Page 2
Subject: Highway 7 / Louisiana Avenue Interchange Project – Noise Wall Resolution
was found to be cost-effective and was identified in the EA as being considered for inclusion in
the project. The City solicited comments from impacted property owners regarding preferences
for or against the noise wall at a June 2, 2011 EA public hearing and through a survey of
property owners conducted in May-June 2011. Results of the survey indicate that the directly
affected property owners did not support installation of the noise wall.
In summary, a noise wall along the north side of Highway 7 west of Louisiana Avenue was
proposed based on projected traffic noise levels. A survey was sent to those property owners
immediately adjacent to the location of the proposed noise wall. The survey requested a
response from the property owners on whether or not they support construction of a noise wall.
Those property owners who responded to the survey all indicated that they do not support
construction of a noise wall. As a result of the survey responses, staff recommends that Council
adopt a resolution requesting that a noise wall not be constructed in the northwest quadrant of the
project area.
Project Schedule
The work to this point has been proceeding to allow for construction of the project to begin in the
summer of 2012 (contingent on full project funding). A schedule summary is as follows:
April 2011 – Begin Final Design (Phase 4 activity)
June 2, 2011 – Project Open House and Public Hearing on the Environmental Assessment
August 2011 – EA completed and approved (concludes Phase 3 activities)
September - December 2011 – Right-of-Way Acquisition Process
January 2012 – Condemnation Initiated (only if needed)
January – March 2012 – Construction Plan Review/Revisions/Approval (Phase 4 activity)
March 31, 2012 – Federal Funding Sunset Date
May 2012 – Advertise for Bids
June 2012 – Open Bids
July 2012 – Award Contract and Begin Construction
Council can chose to slow down or to stop work on this project at any point or time.
FINANCIAL OR BUDGET CONSIDERATION:
Funding Sources and Opportunities
$7,630,000 in federal funds has been secured through the Met Council’s State Transportation
Program Urban Grant solicitation. $594,000 has been secured through the Mn/DOT Municipal
Agreement Program. Mn/DOT has also committed $1,000,000 in Access Management Funds
towards the project.
The estimated project costs and funding sources known at this time are:
Project Costs
Construction $16,500,000
Engineering $ 2,820,000
Right of Way $ 2,680,000
Total Costs $22,000,000
City Council Meeting of August 1, 2011 (Item No. 4f) Page 3
Subject: Highway 7 / Louisiana Avenue Interchange Project – Noise Wall Resolution
Funding Sources
Federal (STP) Funds $7,630,000
City (20% match – undetermined source) $2,398,000
Mn/DOT Access Management $1,000,000
Mn/DOT Cooperative Agreement $ 594,000
Total Committed Funds $11,622,000
Unfunded Amount $10,378,000
Current funding for Phases 1 through 4 is coming from HRA levy proceeds which have been
designated to pay for infrastructure improvements in redeveloping areas. A funding source for
the City’s required match noted above or other possible city costs has not yet been determined.
The HRA levy proceeds could be a logical source. Steps have and continue to be taken to secure
the remaining funds needed for this project (the “unfunded” amount noted above)
VISION CONSIDERATION:
The following Strategic Direction and focus area has been identified by Council.
St. Louis Park is committed to being a connected and engaged community.
Focus will be on:
Promoting regional transportation issues and related dedicated funding
sources affecting St. Louis Park including but not limited to Hwy. 100 and
SWLRT.

Amend and Restate Resolution to Disburse Sunset Ridge Condominium Housing Improvement
Area (HIA) Excess Project Fund Balance to Sunset Ridge Condominium Association.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Motion to approve Resolution amending and restating Resolution No. 11-066 regarding
disbursement of excess Project Fund balance to the Sunset Ridge Condominium Associations’
replacement reserve fund.
POLICY CONSIDERATION:
The Council supported Sunset Ridge Condominium Associations’ request to allow excess HIA
project funds to be deposited into the association’s replacement reserve fund, consistent with the
City and Association’s Development Agreement at the June 20, 2011 meeting. The amended
resolution would document and allow disbursement of a corrected (and lesser) fund balance.
BACKGROUND:
History
The Sunset Ridge Condominium Association petitioned the City Council in November 2008
to establish the Sunset Ridge Condominium Association Housing Improvement Area (HIA)
to facilitate common area improvements to the Sunset Ridge Condominiums located at 2010
– 2260 Ridge Drive.
The HIA was established in October 2009.
The Development Agreement between the City and Association was executed in March
2010.
Construction was substantially completed in fall of 2010, with final spring work completed in
2011. The construction cost came in slightly under budget and resulted in a Project Fund
balance thought to be $135,475.27.
On June 20, 2011 the Resolution to deposit the excess Project Fund balance in the
Association’s Replacement Reserve Fund for future improvements according to the
Development Agreement was approved. The excess Project Fund Balance was thought to be
$135,475.27.
Final Disbursement
Prior to the final disbursement of $135,475.27 by the City to the Association, an error was found
by city staff, and the actual excess Project Fund balance is less - it is $80,677.43. Staff has
worked with the Association’s representative to reconcile this final balance, and payment will be
made upon approval of the amended resolution.
FINANCIAL OR BUDGET CONSIDERATION:
The Sunset Ridge HIA Project Fund was funded by the sale of bonds and prepayments made by
owners. The City has held the funds and has made disbursements for all construction and soft
costs including the City’s administrative fee of $18,700. The disbursement of the excess Project
Funds to Sunset Ridge Condominium Association’s reserve replacement fund has no impact on

RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Motion to approve resolution to disburse excess Sunset Ridge HIA Project Fund Balance of
$135,475.27 to the Sunset Ridge Condominium Association’s replacement reserve fund.
POLICY CONSIDERATION:
Does the Council support Sunset Ridge Condominium Associations’ request to allow excess HIA
project funds of $135,425.27 to be deposited into the association’s replacement reserve fund,
consistent with the City and Association’s Development Agreement?
BACKGROUND:
The Sunset Ridge Condominium Association
petitioned the City Council in November 2008 to

October 2009, and a Development Agreement
between the City and Association was executed in
March 2010.
The City loaned the Association $3,105,000 to help finance almost $4,000,000 of common area
improvements. The average imposed fee for each of the 240 owners is $16,400 at 5.6% interest,
with a twenty-year repayment period via real estate taxes.
The improvements included replacement of exterior siding, windows and trim on all buildings.
Entry doors and trim and patio doors were replaced. Soffits and fascia were replaced. Garages
were resided and new garage doors installed. Patios, decks and porches were replaced as needed
and water damage was remediated as necessary. Some lighting was replaced along with
miscellaneous vents, signs, mail slots. Minor electrical work was required and lock boxes were
installed for emergency fire entrance. Construction was substantially completed in fall of 2010,
with final spring work completed in 2011. The construction cost came in slightly under budget and
resulted in a Project Fund balance of $135,475.27.
City Council Meeting of August 1, 2011 (Item No. 4g) Page 6
Subject: Amend and Restate Resolution to Disburse Excess Sunset Ridge HIA Project Fund Balance
Use of HIA Project Fund Balance. The use of the Project Fund balance is addressed in the
Development Agreement. There are three possible options, all of which require City approval:
1. Use funds for additional work defined in the original work scope.
2. Prepay principal due on internal loan.
3. Deposit funds in the Association’s Replacement Reserve Fund for future common
area improvements.
The Sunset Ridge Association Board discussed the above options and prefers that excess funds
be deposited in the Replacement Reserve Fund for future improvements. The Board submitted
the attached written request dated May 16, 2011 requesting Council approval of the disbursement
of $135,475.27 into the Association’s Replacement Reserve Fund. Council approval is required
for the proposed disbursement of the excess funds.
FINANCIAL OR BUDGET CONSIDERATION:
The project fund has been held by the City and funds have been disbursed for all construction
and all soft costs including the City’s administrative fee of $18,700. The disbursement of the
excess project funds to Sunset Ridge Condominium Association’s reserve replacement fund has
no impact on the City’s budget and will be required to be repaid to the City as a part of the larger
loan the City provided to the Association.
VISION CONSIDERATION:
The City’s HIA loan to Sunset Ridge for housing improvements is consistent with Vision St.
Louis Park and the Strategic Directions adopted by the City Council: “St. Louis Park is
committed to providing a well-maintained and diverse housing stock”. The HIA tool addresses
affordably valued, aging owner-occupied townhouse and condominium housing stock. The
proposed improvements specifically address the focus of property maintenance to foster quality
housing and community aesthetics. The proposed improvements also preserve affordable single-
family home ownership by making the improvements affordable using a low interest long-term
loan.

6. New Business
A. Comcast rate changes effective April 1
Mr. Dunlap reported on the rate changes and displayed a PowerPoint presentation.
He noted that the City has regulatory authority over basic cable rates, which went
down. He reviewed previous price adjustments from 2010. Price adjustments will
be effective April 1, 2011 and June 1, 2011 (shown in handout). This information
City Council Meeting of August 1, 2011 (Item No. 4i) Page 2
Subject: Telecommunications Commission Meeting Minutes of May 19, 2011
is also available on the City website, www.parktv.org and Comcast has a program
guide available at www.comcast.net/meetyourguide.
B. Fiber optic long range planning ordinance update
Commissioner Keeler noted he and Commissioner Browning co-chair the Fiber
Optic planning study group and attended four meetings. He thanked Mr. McHugh
for putting together the background information into a document for potential
bidders. He put together a cover letter for the packet explaining what they were
doing and background for the request for qualifications. They were asking
potential consultants or businesses to present their qualifications to be considered
for this project. They were unsure if there was a particular consultant in the country
that specialized in this area. They were going to post this on NATOA and MACTA
list serves. They are looking for responses by mid June and will then do an
evaluation. The committee will choose an applicant and make a recommendation to
the full Commission and then to the City Council sometime this fall.
C. School District updates and Communication Plan
Mr. McHugh noted the City is now operating the School District channels and
cablecasts school various performances, including 23 since January. This has been
well received and people are using the on-line viewing. Channel 14 will show the
shuttle landing because it still carries NASA part of the time. They are working to
come up with signage to display that will promote local channels while they are
recording in the community.
Mr. Dunlap added that the School District received the Americorps Promise Fellow
grant for 2011-12 and will begin in August to establish a digital media program for
30 disadvantaged students. It will be an after school program, and City Cable TV
staff will look for ways to include or mentor students using existing programs and
activities, like school sports or Park Update.
D. Update on Clear G4 service
Commissioner Browning noted 4G had been rolled out. It was hard to get good
connection, but it was quick.
Chair Mulligan believed a consumer survey they had been doing would primarily
be commercial from now on. It has it with Sprint and it has improved, but doesn’t
transfer between towers very well. It is good if you are stationary.
Mr. McHugh noted this would be part of the study they are doing and Clear would
be a provider.
7. Unfinished Business
A. Grand Stadium Agreement for High School Sports Sectionals coverage
Mr. Dunlap indicated a couple of options were listed in the hand out. He hoped
Commissioners mad a recommendation that would give the City the ability to make
last minute changes if necessary. They are concerned about losing access to local
play off games in the community.
City Council Meeting of August 1, 2011 (Item No. 4i) Page 3
Subject: Telecommunications Commission Meeting Minutes of May 19, 2011
Commissioner Theobald made a motion, Commission Browning seconded to table
the discussion until the next meeting.
The motion passed 7-0.
B. Consider franchise fee audit notice by June 30, 2011 if Commission chooses to
recommend an audit for: July 1, 2008-June 30, 2011
Commissioner Browning noted he was not convinced an audit was necessary based
on the cost of the previous audit and what they got out of it. It didn’t make sense to
commit the resources. Commissioner Keeler concurred. There is no requirement
about when to do the audit, except that after audit notice is provided, the auditor can
look back three years.
Commissioner Dworsky asked if they could get a City Attorney opinion about the
City’s exposure if they didn’t do an audit and recovery of funds if there was a
discrepancy. They could possibly miss a few months.
Commissioner Keeler asked about franchise fees and if they were based on gross
revenue, not the number of subscribers and if they had aggregate totals (basic,
digital, etc.)? He asked if the fees had been relatively consistent in the last several
years? Mr. Dunlap said it was very similar.
Commissioner Theobald said based on the discussion he felt comfortable forgoing
an audit or review.
Commissioner Peterson said he could go along with foregoing an audit for maybe a
year, but he also saw the value of keeping Comcast honest and that the audit is one
of the tools to do that. He’d like to see the figures and trends and more rudimentary
monitoring, and he’d like to see us tracking what we should be tracking.
Mr. Dunlap noted Comcast sends a quarterly report to staff and if it is not
considered proprietary, he would share it with the Commission.
Commissioner Dworsky made a motion, Commission Keeler seconded to turn the
matter over to the City Attorney for his opinion.
The motion passed 7-0.
Commissioner Keeler said he would review the Comcast information and put it into
a spreadsheet for Commissioners and also provide an update on the future of cable
TV looking at the impact of wireless internet, Cable TV, network, etc. and if there
would be revenue impact to the City with the decrease of cable subscribers. He said
there are potential new revenue streams for municipalities and a number of
communities are doing things to protect technology revenue streams. He said they
need to look at this more down the road and could possible set up a task force to
report on this.

Subject: Telecommunications Commission Meeting Minutes of May 19, 2011
8. Reports
A. Complaints
Commissioner Browning said that a common problem for customers is that they
can’t get through to Comcast, and he wondered if they were doing everything they
could about this. Mr. Dunlap said that Comcast customer service representatives
would be invited to attend the October 6 meeting to answer any questions about
company practices.
9. Communication from the Chair - None
10. Communications from City Staff
Mr. Dunlap read a proclamation from the City Council recognizing volunteers of Boards
and Commissions. He also reported on Bookmark in the Park, a program to encourage
reading in St. Louis Park. The book for this year is Lone Wolf.
Mr. McHugh indicated handed out the public service announcement pages and a brochure
on the City open house.
11. Adjournment
Commissioner Dworsky made a motion, Commission Keeler seconded to adjourn at 8:13.
The motion passed 7-0.

Ms. Olson read a proclamation from the City Council honoring Board and Commission
members for their volunteerism. She indicated the open house went well and they
received thanks for serving kosher treats.
III. HRC Council Report
Ms. Olson stated the HRC Annual Report went to City Council in February and they
requested another meeting with Commissioners. She and Chair Tomback will attend,
other Commissioners are also welcome. City Council felt it would be valuable to have
the HRC suggest key issues facing the community. One idea is bullying.
IV. 2011 Work Plan updates – them for a year?
Commissioners suggested other key issues: bullying of seniors (i.e. phone scams,
computer, etc.), zero tolerance of any bigotry and discriminations – establish equitable

treatment of one another, acceptance of peoples differences/diversity; the marriage
protection amendment on the upcoming ballot could become an issue closer to the
election.
Commissioner Tomback discussed the Commission consider picking a topic for year and
her suggestions was doing more outreach to schools/diverse populations. Bullying came
up as a topic because schools are a good “target” to reach a lot of the population and to
get the Commissions name out there. They can also reach the victim and aggressor. The
new neighbors programs would also be a nice tie-in. There would be potential for
community backing of speakers, etc.
Ms. Olson noted this would give a good focus and energy for the Commission. It is also
something that is on the City Council radar. It is also a good tie-in with PAC. DARE has
a bullying component, but it starts in 5th grade and bullying generally starts before then.
Stopbullying.org has PSA’s available to run on civic channels. This could be included
with the film series and speakers and their literature.
Chair Morgan felt they needed to educate young people about acceptance.
Commissioner Tomback believed the School Board would probably get behind them for
this. There are recent issues happening in St. Louis Park Schools with zero tolerance and
socio economic issues.
Ms. Olson added that the Community Education Advisory Commission might also be
interested in partnering with them. They could also talk to the high school students who
were recipients of the Human Rights award this year.
V. Film Committee
Commissioner Glaab stated he went to the VA to get information about veterans who are
returning from active duty and re-acclimating to civilian life.
Commissioners were unsure if it was an HRC issue and fit with their mission.
Ms. Olson noted a program called Yellow Ribbon Communities, which may be another
venue for the veterans. The Film committee can research more as a group and what is the
Human Rights element. They can have information on cable channel programming and
put information on the community resource list.
VI. Community Resource List
Commissioner Tomaback found some good updates and may also include more
information about the organizations. Something interesting she found was that people
could call 211 to reach the United Way.
Ms. Olson noted this is used as a resource to send to crime victims. She will Email the
list to Commissioners for suggestions or other updates. The League of Women Voters
also sponsors a community resource directory (also translated) for new community
members, which they can link to on the web page.

Ms. Olson stated the Diversity Lens is on the Human Rights page as well as links to the
brochure and a brief synopsis about the Commission. They will continue to add to it, but
it is taking shape. Send suggestions to Ms. Olson.
VIII. New Business
Chair Morgan suggested Commissioners attend the annual Human Rights conference if
they are able and that it is a good way of networking and the seminars are enriching.

TITLE:
Public Hearing for On-Sale Intoxicating Liquor License – El Patron Mexican Cuisine.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Mayor to close public hearing. Motion to approve application from El GordoUno, Inc. dba El
Patron Mexican Cuisine for an on-sale intoxicating with Sunday sales liquor license to be located
at 8140 Highway 7 with the license term through March 1, 2012.
POLICY CONSIDERATION:
Does the Council wish to approve the liquor license for El Patron Mexican Cuisine?
BACKGROUND:
The City received an application from El GordoUno Inc for an on-sale intoxicating liquor license
with Sunday sales for its restaurant, El Patron Mexican Cuisine, to be located at the current El
Gordo Authentic Mexican Cuisine location at 8140 State Highway 7 in St. Louis Park. This is
not the first time the corporation El GordoUno, Inc. has applied for a liquor license. El
GordoUno, Inc has been denied a liquor license in the past due to conflicts with the application
process and concerns with the past owner of the corporation, Baldo Valenzo. El GordoUno, Inc
has recently been purchased and is under new ownership by partners Mr. James Reyes and Mr.
Jose Vazquez. Mr. Vazquez will also be the store manager.
El Patron Mexican Cuisine will offer a full menu for lunch and dinner consisting of authentic
Mexican food. The restaurant will offer an assortment of alcohol choices but will primary serve
beer and margaritas. The planned bar is designed to complement food orders in the restaurant
and is not intended to be a stand alone bar for alcohol service only.
The Police Department has conducted a full investigation and has found nothing that would
warrant denial of the license. The application and police report are on file in the City Clerk’s
office should Council members wish to review the information prior to the public hearing. The
required public hearing notice was published in the Sun Sailor Newspaper on July 21, 2011.
Should Council approve the liquor license no actual license is issued until all required
compliance is met with City Inspections Department and the State Alcohol and Gambling
Enforcement Division.
FINANCIAL OR BUDGET CONSIDERATION:
The investigation fee for a new applicant is $500. The yearly license fee is $8,700 (pro-rated).
