7a. Establishment of Texa Tonka Tax increment financing district. EDA Resolution
No. 21-06. EDA Resolution No. 21-07.
Mr. Hunt presented the report.
Commissioner Harris asked if there is any benefit to the city to have shorter terms on
tax increment financing (TIF) districts. Mr. Hunt stated the sooner a project’s TIF Note is
paid off, the sooner the full value of the project can be added to the tax rolls but noted
a TIF district can be held open longer and a portion of the tax increment can be used for
affordable housing projects.
Commissioner Harris noted this project has been discussed for quite a long time and she
is supportive of the establishment of the TIF district. She continued Paster Properties
has been a good partner and she is eager to see how this unfolds, noting they are
invested in the community especially at this intersection of Minnetonka and Texas –
which is the true West End of the city.
President Brausen asked if the TIF note will be paid off after 12 years, and if the council
can continue to make that decision each year, while the city is not obligated to keep it
open the full 26 years. Ms. Barton stated that is correct.
Commissioner Rog stated she likes this project and the development but will oppose the
establishment of a TIF district and the development contract because of her ongoing
concerns with TIF. She reiterated she is not opposed to the project but has concerns
about how much of the city’s tax base is wrapped up in TIF districts. She stated TIF is
something everyone is playing a role in and everyone is playing their parts. She added
the developers are requesting, staff is making their analysis and the council approves.
She stated she has lingering concerns about how much of the city’s tax base is wrapped
up in this system for private developers and whether there is a better system to use
public funds for maximum public benefit. She noted the $2.6 million buys 20 units at
50% AMI.
Commissioner Rog stated there will be studio and 1-bedroom units, as well as 2-
bedroom units, but this will not be sufficient for families that need 3-bedroom units. She
is not convinced this is the best way to invest tax dollars; therefore, she will oppose this
and hopes the council will dive deeper into the TIF issue and how to reach ROI and goals
with TIF.
Commissioner Kraft added he appreciated Commissioner Rog’s stance on this, adding he
has also been thinking a lot about TIF and has some discomfort with it, although he will
support this project. He acknowledged it is good to see a project proposed for this space
Economic development authority meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 3a) Page 3
Title: EDA meeting minutes of April 5, 2021
and it is a thoughtful development, especially with its green features. He stated he
appreciates the developers’ ties to St. Louis Park as well.
Commissioner Kraft stated he does question the but-for clause, adding he would also
like to discuss TIF further with council at a later date.
Commissioner Harris stated she was skeptical about TIF when she first joined council,
but then saw it was a good value for city resources and a good investment, while TIF
funds could be put towards affordable housing.
President Brausen agreed and stated the city would not have this money unless the
development occurs.
Commissioner Spano stated he assumed this would be a unanimous vote, adding TIF is a
strategy that has resulted in the redevelopment of St. Louis Park, which would not have
happened if not for TIF. He added the city had zero affordable housing units before TIF,
and while it is not perfect, it is a tool that works and an investment strategy helping to
develop a first-tier suburb. He stated he will support this.
Commissioner Dumalag stated she will also support the TIF, but added she appreciates
Commissioner Rog’s pause on how the city uses TIF. She stated she will support it to
redevelop a part of our city that has been left out, adding Paster Properties will
participate via TIF and this is a way to obtain affordable housing.
Commissioner Mohamed added she will also support this but did agree with
Commissioner Rog’s comments about units and bedrooms, noting more space is needed
for families. She added, however, because this is a Texa Tonka project she will support
it, as that part of the city needs this development.
President Brausen stated he will also support the establishment of the Texa Tonka TIF
district.
It was moved by Commissioner Harris, seconded by Commissioner Mohamed, to adopt
EDA Resolution No. 21-06, approving establishment of the Texa Tonka Tax Increment
Financing District; and, to adopt EDA Resolution No. 21-07, authorizing an interfund
loan for advance of certain costs in connection with the administration of the Texa Tonka
TIF District.
The motion passed 6-1 (Commissioner Rog opposed).
7b. Redevelopment contract with Paster Development – Texa Tonka Apartments
EDA Resolution No. 21-08
Commissioner Rog stated she will oppose this; however, not because she is opposed to
the project. She stated this is a conversation she has been wanting to have for a while,
and there needs to be a pause to clarify if the city wants to continue with this.

Mr. Harmening stated Chief Harcey will provide a high-level overview of the events in Brooklyn
Center of this week and going forward. He noted a separate detailed security update can be
scheduled for a future date.
Chief Harcey discussed public safety after the Brooklyn Center incident and noted that 28
agencies across Hennepin County are involved in forming the West Command Mobile Field
Force policy and procedures. He noted the Brooklyn Center police chief requested mutual aid
assistance from the West Command Mobile Field Force to help maintain the crime scene. He
noted after they left the scene, they were asked by the Brooklyn Center police chief to assist in
protecting the critical infrastructure of the Brooklyn Center Police Department. He stated they
took action to disperse crowds the day of the incident and subsequently on Monday, Tuesday,
Wednesday, and Saturday. The entire time the St. Louis Park staff was there, they assisted on
several arrests and one use of force incident.
Chief Harcey stated on Sunday night there was one burglary at a St. Louis Park cell phone store,
adding this was a related event to the Brooklyn Center unrest. Going forward, the city’s mobile
field staff is on call every third night to assist with any future civil unrest. He added the police
force continue to watch the Chauvin trial updates and timeline information on the verdict. He
stated they will have additional police and resources in St. Louis Park during the verdict and
afterwards.
Councilmember Harris thanked Chief Harcey for his leadership. She stated it is helpful having
the West Command Mobile Field Force working on this. She also is concerned about public
perception and added the city’s officers involved have not utilized pepper spray or rubber
bullets, but she has concerns as they were near or adjacent to officers that are using these
methods. She asked how to explain this to residents if questions come to her. Chief Harcey
stated use of force reports and incidents are documented and reviewed by their own agencies.
He stated if chemical munitions are used, they were used correctly to defend the officers and
community.
Councilmember Harris stated our officers are using our own policies and asked if each group
uses their own city policies as well and how do they differ. Chief Harcey stated each officer is
required to follow their own city’s use of force policies, while the incident commander from
Brooklyn Center and Hennepin County made tactical decisions.
Councilmember Dumalag asked about public perception and what St. Louis Park is doing related
to Operation Safety Net. Chief Harcey stated the city is part of Operation Safety Net. He noted
all are working in a unified command and this is a region-wide response to Brooklyn Center and
in preparation for the Chauvin verdict. He added the chemicals used on protestors were done
so in response to the attacks on police and the Brooklyn Center Police Department was under
attack with plans to burn it down.
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 3a) Page 4
Title: City council meeting minutes of April 19, 2021
Councilmember Rog stated she understands the chaos happening, adding it was happening
with both police and within the crowd. She asked if use of non-lethal force is at the officers’
discretion. Chief Harcey stated yes.
Councilmember Rog asked about the process of unlawful assembly and how people are
dispersed. Chief Harcey stated directions are provided in advance to the crowd about
dispersing. He noted the Brooklyn Park crowd was told three times to disperse.
Councilmember Rog stated she understands the concerns of the police, but also knew of a case
of a person leaving when dispersed and then being pulled back out of their car and arrested.
She stated she hopes St. Louis Park police were not involved in this, adding it is a very
complicated time.
Councilmember Rog asked why SWAT team assistance was needed. Chief Harcey stated they
were needed for chemical munitions as they have training and are certified in this area. He
added, however, chemical munitions were not used by the St. Louis Park SWAT team members.
Councilmember Rog asked who pays for overtime and additional costs for police during the
Brooklyn Center protests. Chief Harcey stated this will be worked on over time, but under the
agreement, St. Louis Park will pay for their officers’ salaries to a certain point and then Brooklyn
Center may be asked to assist. He noted a salary plan was in place for unrest during the Chauvin
trial, but this has now changed considerably.
Councilmember Kraft thanked Chief Harcey for his clear communication and transparency,
adding he wishes for safety for police and protestors. He asked about claims that media was
being targeted by police. Chief Harcey stated police issued dispersal orders and asked media to
leave the area while media were given the opportunity to leave. He added, however, there
were certain members of the protest group that stated they were from the media and police
were not certain if they were legitimate or not.
Councilmember Kraft asked when the verdict comes down, how much notice do the police
receive. Chief Harcey stated it should be enough time to get personnel deployed as needed,
adding it might be a few hours only.
Councilmember Kraft stated he would prefer a more detailed discussion in the future on this
topic and would like to pursue what would happen if there was a protest in St. Louis Park and if
chemicals were to be used. He added he would like to be prepared and discuss in advance with
staff and police what would happen rather than react after the fact.
Mayor Spano agreed, adding he is also interested in discussing this further.
Councilmember Brausen stated no one wants to be involved in these situations, but it is the
duty of police to protect the public, adding everyone appreciates the efforts of police. He stated
the very traumatic events of last summer and now in Brooklyn Center are horrific and continue
to occur. Councilmember Brausen added because our communities are part of the system,
everyone can be demonized, but added the system is failing people and it is frustrating. He
stated he feels bad the police have been put in this position, and while some question the use
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 3a) Page 5
Title: City council meeting minutes of April 19, 2021
of chemicals or curfew, we need to trust our leaders even though they do not always make
perfect decisions. He added he hopes all can work together to address this trauma and
expressed his appreciation for police and their work, while adding he hopes systemic issues can
be addressed around some of the city’s policies.
Mayor Spano agreed with the councilmembers’ comments and added his appreciation for the
police and their transparency. He asked about the burglary at the cell phone store in St. Louis
Park and how it was tied to the Brooklyn Center events. Chief Harcey stated the suspects’
vehicle was tied to some activities in Brooklyn Center related to looting, adding it was a similar
target and mode of operation.
Mayor Spano stated there was some confusion around what was asked for and decisions made
related to the mutual aid request by Brooklyn Center to St. Louis Park, West Metro, the
Hennepin County Sheriff’s office, and the mayor’s press conference, which was confusing. He
asked the chief for clarification on this. Chief Harcey stated the less than lethal forces that were
suspended in Brooklyn Center were orders for their officers only, and not for the assisting
police forces.
Mayor Spano asked about the use of SWAT forces and the specialized skills. He stated he would
like to discuss this specialization at a future date and will submit this topic for a study session.
Mayor Spano stated the issue of the press clearing the area is a concern with freedom of the
press and asked how it is reconciled telling the press to leave when they are doing their job by
covering the situation. He added this is problematic and he did not understand why the media
was asked to leave.
Chief Harcey stated there was violence occurring and people were trying to get through the
fence to the police station. He added the dispersal order was given 3 times and warnings that
arrests would occur if folks did not disperse. He stated the media was also given the warning to
leave or face arrest, along with protestors, if they stayed, and police wanted to get them out of
the perimeter.
Mayor Spano stated these things must be reconciled.
Councilmember Rog asked if there is a certain set of criteria on who decides what. Chief Harcey
stated if there are violent acts and the public or police are put at risk of bodily harm, then it is
not a peaceful protest and a dispersal order is given.
Councilmember Rog stated it was mostly a peaceful protest. She asked what groups are asked
to assist. Chief Harcey stated all police groups assisting work under a unified command system
with a commander to ensure safety. He added the local agency is responsible as the incident
commander during a mutual aid request.
Councilmember Brausen stated he trusts the city manager and police to make decisions in
situations like this, adding he does not have expertise and would rather respond to a situation
versus trying to get out in front of it and brainstorm on every possible scenario on when to and
when not to use lethal force.
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 3a) Page 6
Title: City council meeting minutes of April 19, 2021
Mayor Spano stated there are lines of accountability and authority and it is appropriate for the
council to question who is doing what and when.
Mr. Mattick stated the council can call a special meeting but must give 3-days public notice. He
added if the council wants an emergency meeting, that can happen as well, but the emergency
will need to be explained.
Mayor Spano stated this is not an emergency meeting but there should be a special closed
meeting on Friday of this week.
Mr. Harmening stated staff will send a poll asking councilmembers for a good time to meet on
Friday.

Minutes: 3b
Unofficial minutes
City council special study session
St. Louis Park, Minnesota
April 19, 2021
The meeting convened at 7:43 p.m.
Councilmembers present: Mayor Jake Spano, Tim Brausen, Lynette Dumalag, Rachel Harris,
Larry Kraft, and Margaret Rog
Councilmembers absent: Nadia Mohamed
Staff present: City Manager (Mr. Harmening), Director of Operations and Recreation (Ms.
Walsh), Engineering Director (Ms. Heiser), CFO (Ms. Schmitt), Senior Engineering Project
Manager (Mr. Sullivan), Senior Management Analyst (Ms. Solano), and Recording Secretary (Ms.
Pappas)
1.Governmental accounting overview
Ms. Schmitt presented the overview to the council.
Councilmember Rog asked if 59 funds is a large amount for a city the size of St. Louis Park, and
if there is a benefit to having more or fewer funds. Ms. Schmitt stated it is not unexpected to
have 59 funds and added the benefit of more or fewer funds depend on the funding structure
of the city. She noted many city funds come from TIF districts, it is smart to open a larger
number of funds to account for TIF and Bonds.
Councilmember Rog asked if it is recommended to keep a 35-50% fund balance, and noted the
city is at 45%. She also asked if there is a difference in ratings between 35-45%. Ms. Schmitt
stated the lowering of a fund balance could tip a lower bond rating but added bond ratings can
be caused by many factors.
Councilmember Rog asked if a restricted fund balance is related to staffing. Ms. Schmitt stated
it is not, it is related to maintaining the debt. Ms. Schmitt then explained what arbitrage
reporting is for each bond.
Councilmember Rog asked about strategic investments for the city. Ms. Schmitt stated you
cannot intentionally invest debt proceeds to make more interest than you are paying, it is illegal
to do that.
Councilmember Rog asked about a 0% tax levy and why Hennepin County did a 0% tax levy. She
also asked about a status update on federal funds for the city. Ms. Schmitt stated staff does
have an idea of what the city will received in federal funds, noting it could be $4-5 million;
however, staff has no details on what the funds can be used for yet.
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 3b) Page 2
Title: Special study session minutes of April 19, 2021
Councilmember Kraft asked about keeping 45% of expenses in the fund balance and what this
all applies to. Ms. Schmitt stated this is the city’s fund balance policy and only applies to the
general fund. She added the general fund is the largest and has the most money in it, noting
this is the most important fund. She added the city also has utility funds and other funds and
each has a fund balance policy related to it, noting it varies on what the funds can be used for.
Councilmember Kraft stated last year the city’s expenses ran under balance and asked if this
then generates a fund balance. Ms. Schmitt stated it certainly can, adding the budget is the
plan, but there are unanticipated overages or underages. She stated staff watches and tracks
this with monthly financial reports and if something happens on the revenue side, it could be
used for the fund balance.
Councilmember Dumalag asked about yearly tax rate changes as it relates to market values. Ms.
Schmitt stated the tax rates change every year, and the market rate depends on values which
also change every year. She noted all communities in the Twin Cities metro area contribute 40%
into a pool and the state prepares a distribution rate and sends funds back out. Ms. Schmitt
added this is only done in Minnesota and makes it fair as it relates to a city’s development and
tax rates.
Councilmember Dumalag asked if the term of debt varies. Ms. Schmitt stated ideally more
infrastructure can be maintained using debt. She pointed to pavement projects as an example
here, that can be completed over a 10-year revolving schedule.
Councilmember Harris asked if there are best practices related to the maximum amount of debt
to carry. Ms. Schmitt stated that depends on the overall financial structure of a city, and every
city does it differently.
Councilmember Harris asked if using debt to pay for pavement structure is common. Ms.
Schmitt stated yes.
Mr. Harmening added Connect the Park has been driving this in St. Louis Park over the last 5-7
years. He noted also with the magnitude of projects coming up, the city may have to investigate
the local option sales tax again or certain projects like Connect the Park may not be able to be
done.
Councilmember Rog asked about grants and what the city secures in grants each year. Ms.
Schmitt stated she will find out and report back. Mr. Harmening stated the city does put energy
into some foundation funds available for municipalities for climate action or racial equity. He
noted most grants come from county, Met Council, or the state, but not from private
foundations that support certain goals. He noted the McKnight Foundation may have some
funds for housing and could be pursued.
Councilmember Kraft asked Ms. Schmitt if franchise fees go to pavement management. Ms.
Schmitt stated yes but noted cable fees are different.
Councilmember Brausen added the pavement management is needed and more must be
invested for infrastructure of the city which is 75 years old.
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 3b) Page 3
Title: Special study session minutes of April 19, 2021
Ms. Schmitt stated the next budget discussion will be at the May 10 meeting of the council.
Mayor Spano thanked Ms. Schmitt for the very helpful presentation.
2. Connect the Park policy discussion
Mr. Sullivan presented the updates on Connect the Park policy and approach. He noted this will
be a different way to approach the public process portion and staff recommendations and
presents a new and updated way to review Connect the Park projects going forward.
Councilmember Kraft stated he is excited to see this keep moving forward. He suggested when
discussing how people move about the community, the phrase “without a car” be added as well
as e-bikes and e-scooters. He has a concern with the use of the term “best fit design,” which
sounds like a term that assumes a certain outcome. He is also concerned there is some
unconscious bias in saying “best fit”.
Councilmember Kraft noted the term “populations served” and asked how staff is thinking
about this term. Mr. Sullivan stated there can be no forecast about who might use the corridor
and it depends on the population that has access here, their ages, demographics, and would be
dependent on this information.
Councilmember Kraft asked how the model will consider the network effect of the biking
infrastructure. Mr. Sullivan stated the bike network analysis tool helps staff understand how
biking levels could change, adding he is not sure if it represents all areas, but it can look at
correlations.
Councilmember Kraft added impacts could be negative; however, there can be positive capital
returns. Mr. Sullivan agreed, adding impacts do not have to be negative. He stated staff will
learn from this and refine each project to keep it more in line with what council and future
councils want to see.
Councilmember Kraft added when looking at policy, he will want to see racial equity
considerations included.
Councilmember Harris noted the public input phase, ROI criteria, and bike buddy program, and
stated some might not be aware the city is creating a program for those interested by
concerned or more cautious bikers. She encouraged staff to share widely that the goal is for the
more casual bikers. She requested a public input feedback loop or infographic to articulate to
residents how and when the city will take input, how their input will impact the process, how it
matters and changes that will come.
Mr. Sullivan stated staff does have a feedback loop in practice and will take suggestions to find
ways to illustrate infographics to the community for a better recommendation and project.
Councilmember Rog stated she appreciates the thinking behind this, and all is moving in a great
direction. She noted the ROI chart and that the best fit is the interested but concerned biker.
Ms. Sullivan stated interested but concerned means more with larger negative impacts, but in
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 3b) Page 4
Title: Special study session minutes of April 19, 2021
the end will get more riders out. He stated staff can change how they are described or find a
better name to remove preconceived notions.
Councilmember Rog stated she would like to push more thinking about changing how cars work
on the road. She would like to see the Dakota Bridge costs and funds included in the ROI
analysis as well. She agrees with resident input comments, adding each project might have its
own needs around public engagement and councilmembers can bring ideas from within their
wards and connect earlier in the process about who else to engage with.
Councilmember Rog also stated she wants everyone to continue to think about non-motorized
definitions, noting that electric bikes do have motors. She asked if there is value in scoring or
looking at different segments or the order of choosing segments in terms of equity or as being
more supportive of the city’s racial equity goals.
Councilmember Brausen stated he would also like a ROI analysis, noting carbon reduction and
public health impacts may be hard to quantify, but he will want to see them. He added he sent
staff his comments on data, bike, and pedestrian counts also.
Councilmember Brausen stated some of the improvements will be retro fitting as the roads
were built for cars and trucks, and the city will continue to get negative feedback on this. He
pointed out as the Ward 4 councilmember, the west end of Cedar Lake Road continues to have
improvements pushed out until 2036 and this is difficult to tell his constituents.
Mayor Spano stated he likes the fact this is being approached as a work in progress versus a
solution to implement. He agreed with Councilmember Kraft’s comments on race equity as well
and asked staff to clearly state the differences between bike trails and bikeways.
Mayor Spano added he would like to bring in and leverage the strength of other professional
organizations to help build community and community engagement around this.
Councilmember Kraft stated guidance is not clear on the interested but concerned biker and
noted it would be valuable to create a transportation commission here.
Councilmember Brausen added, however, he worries about adding increased costs with
involving professionals. He asked if the city is still planning to do a community survey soon,
noting that Connect the Park has been great about connecting communities who can talk on
sidewalks and meet their neighbors. He stated the city gets ROI on community building but
noted they do not do a good enough job on promoting before going onto the next project.
Councilmember Dumalag stated she sees value in hiring an outside consultant on the public
engagement process, noting it would be money well-spent and should be explored. She pointed
out the city is already halfway through Connect the Park.
Councilmember Rog stated she feels what the Mayor is proposing is entirely different based on
what council has directed staff to work on for many months, adding she feels like this
supersedes what was presented tonight.
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 3b) Page 5
Title: Special study session minutes of April 19, 2021
Mayor Spano stated he sees this as part of the public engagement process.
Councilmember Rog stated, however, this seems like a whole other conversation. She stated
while she likes this idea as a concept, the resource allocation would be significant, adding this
item should be taken up at a separate time.
Ms. Heiser stated next steps will be discussing financials with Ms. Schmitt, and how to speed up
the process as it relates to Cedar Lake Road and Louisiana Avenue.
Communications/meeting check-in (verbal)
Councilmember Brausen volunteered to conduct the planning commission interviews, as noted
in the written report, seeing as Councilmember Harris is unable to do them.
Ms. Solano stated she will make that schedule change and send an email update to the council
on the boards and commissions appointment process, as well as a poll regarding scheduling the
council closed session.
The meeting adjourned at 10:00 p.m.

1.Parks and recreation advisory commission 2021 workplan review
Mr. Canter presented the 2021 workplan for the parks and recreation advisory commission.
Councilmember Harris asked if the commission is part of basketball in the park or if that is
through public safety. Ms. Walsh stated the police run this program.
Councilmember Harris asked if there are dedicated efforts to get kids outside and goals related
to this. Mr. Canter stated every child has a park in their neighborhood and the cost for activities
is $0. He stated city parks are so used that trash cans are full and emptied every day.
Councilmember Rog asked about the Webster Park master plan. Ms. Walsh stated the plan is a
MnDot issue, adding that MnDot is in the process of turning back property that the city leased
from them. She stated it is still a wait and see issue, but possibly a task force could be involved.
Councilmember Rog stated she appreciates the gentle pressure the city is putting on MnDot
related to Webster Park, and added residents have shared ideas and continue to be involved in
the master plan as it takes shape. Ms. Walsh added staff will be involved and recommendations
will be made to the parks commission and filtered out for best practices.
Councilmember Rog asked about access to programs and how is the city doing, are there
metrics and how much is being spent. Ms. Walsh stated she will get a report on this to the
council.
Councilmember Rog stated she noticed there are no recycling bins at Birchwood Park. She
asked about other ways the city is looking at equity for access, and if any progress has
happened with the naturalist program. Ms. Walsh stated progress is being made, but there is a
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 3e) Page 2
Title: Study session minutes of April 26, 2021
long way to go. She added staff and volunteers had great success last year, but with
modifications for COVID-19. She noted the parks program is a great feeder program for the city
to diversify the workforce also.
Mr. Canter added the commission wants to see diversity, adding that young children do not
notice color at all. He stated everyone has something to give and the commission is ready to
help all they can to diversify. He added COVID-19 is also a mental health epidemic, and
everyone needs to get out and moving in the parks as much as they can.
Councilmember Rog asked about access to park programs that run a half day only and require
parents to pick up children only after a few hours. She noted this type of program limits access
to people at certain income levels. She asked the commission and staff to look at access
barriers with time of day and transportation. Ms. Walsh stated there are all day programs at
the Nature Center that are 2-3 weeks long or also for the entire summer.
Mayor Spano added the neighborhood park programs also allow parents to sign up for morning
and afternoon sessions and the cost is minimal for the whole summer. Ms. Walsh added rates
are approximately $15 and families can sign up for multiple weeks all summer long.
Councilmember Brausen stated the commission is doing a great job considering the challenges
with the pandemic. He noted the city council has talked about access to programs and how to
do more, but this has been on hold due to the pandemic. He added he hopes the city can get a
response from the school systems on this and all can access the nature center, and he
encouraged more work on this.
Councilmember Kraft agreed with the comments about equity and thanked the commission for
their good work on the plan. He added he likes the Westwood equity access plan and the
electric blower and chain saws used by staff. He stated he heard about the ice cream for staff
and noted the at-large councilmember could help serve.
Councilmember Dumalag thanked the commission for their work. She also agreed with
comments made about equity and hours of offerings. She added she would like to see how
resources are allocated on keeping parks clean, noting she had feedback on this also.
Councilmember Harris asked about the survey on park updates, and how folks can weigh in.
Ms. Walsh stated postcards are sent to all neighborhoods regarding their parks. She stated the
electronic survey conducted had a tremendous response, with more input online vs. at a
meeting. She stated folks have really responded to this and the ability to reach people has
quadrupled.
Mayor Spano agreed parks are being used and cleaned on a regular basis, noting this is a great
way to know parks are being used. He appreciates the projects and the diversity of projects the
commission is working on, as well as the staff appreciation. He stated the parks and recreation
commission have the most commission-initiated projects, with some direction from council.
Mayor Spano asked how the commission was able to do this. Mr. Canter stated most of their
projects are ongoing, including annual staff appreciation, annual Minnehaha Creek clean-up
and speaking to youth sport associations. He stated more items were added by the council such
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 3e) Page 3
Title: Study session minutes of April 26, 2021
as the Westwood Nature Center programs, and equity in programs. He stated if the council
would like to add more, the commission is happy to work on additional projects.
Councilmember Kraft stated as the commission works on the Westwood Nature Center
anniversary event, think about how to get interest in climate action, or create an education tool
on climate action. He encouraged the commission to look at equity throughout all their work
and expand to all their projects as well.
Councilmember Rog added the council’s study session priorities list, which includes easy access
to nature, could be looked at as a priority and input given before it comes to council.
Mayor Spano suggested Mr. Canter and Ms. Walsh discuss this and how it can fit into their work
plan. Ms. Walsh stated this was an excellent idea and could be a main goal for the commission
for 2021. She added in reviewing internal policies with an equity lens, staff may be
unintentionally inviting or uninviting people without realizing it.
Mayor Spano thanked the commission for their work, noting there are so many parks in St.
Louis Park, and most people are only 2-3 blocks from a park. He added robust investment
should go to neighborhood parks, as well as to neighborhood spaces.
2. Planning commission and board of zoning appeals 2021 workplan review
Planning commission and board of zoning appeals chair Eckholm presented the report. He
noted key accomplishments and projects from 2020 including Historic Walker Lake zoning
district (MX-2) and an ordinance allowing accessory dwelling units (ADUs). He also presented
the work plan for 2021 which includes review of single family building scale regulations, home
occupations, parking regulations, a new transit-oriented development zoning district for the
light rail transit station areas, allowing two family dwellings in low density areas on
appropriately-sized lots, review of the food security and access study, racial equity training, and
consideration of a new transitional industrial district or amendments to current industrial
districts.
Councilmember Kraft stated there are interesting issues coming before the planning
commission in 2021, which will have social impacts on racial equity and the climate crisis. He
appreciates the work the commission does and is excited to look at two-family dwellings, which
is a key tool for affordable housing. He stated electric vehicle parking is important but noted
how some of the city’s electric vehicle parking requirements have already become obsolete. He
asked if the commission will look at parking regulations more broadly. Mr. Walther stated they
will look at the electric vehicle parking as one element of a broader review of off-street parking
requirements, including some reductions in parking requirements around light rail transit areas.
Councilmember Kraft noted the food security topic and stated he is interested that the
commission is looking at this, adding he does a newsletter with Roots and Shoots at the high
school on this topic. He noted an example in Denmark of persons walking everywhere they
need to go within 5 minutes or less and asked the commission if they will discuss easy access
for walking and biking. Mr. Eckholm stated they would like a discussion on this and ways to
solve problems now for the future. He stated their intent is to find ways to improve and make
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 3e) Page 4
Title: Study session minutes of April 26, 2021
better choices going forward and see if there are ways to support and connect people with
existing resources.
Councilmember Kraft noted the “parking lot” or lower priority issues listed in the work plan,
water conservation and housing analysis, and asked how they came to be part of their
workplan. Mr. Eckholm stated this was something a former commissioner was supportive of
and the commission kept this on, noting they may be included in the 2022 work plan.
Councilmember Harris stated the commission’s report was impressive and showed great
teamwork. She stated she was interested in the industrial transition zone portion and agreed it
is smart to look ahead on this. She asked how residents and area businesses will be engaged.
Mr. Eckholm stated staff has done a great job on expanding outreach in new ways during the
pandemic and bringing events to the community in an effective way. He noted Historic Walker
Lake and Texa Tonka small area planning are both good examples of this engagement. He
added the industrial transition zone is not intended to transition out of industrial, but to move
to industrial without the traditional pollution or transportation issues, while also creating a
more dynamic and flexible mix of uses.
Councilmember Harris noted the duplexes and asked if there were considerations for triplexes
and quads. Mr. Eckholm stated the commission will investigate duplexes first, as per the
comprehensive plan, adding they want to be sure folks are supportive of them, and there is also
buy-in. He noted a benefit may be to bring the tax burden down by spreading taxes amongst
more homeowners, without changing the character of a neighborhood. He stated duplexes just
allow more people to be your neighbors.
Councilmember Harris stated with more businesses and live/work arrangements, this will be an
important lens for viewing types of housing. She stated she would love to see quads and
triplexes in the city as well.
Mr. Eckholm stated this has been an “all of the above” proposition. The comprehensive plan
also suggests rezoning certain corridors to allow medium density housing with attached
townhomes, row homes, triplexes, and quads. This is an underrepresented housing type. He
stated the planning commission will continue to seek ways to add more housing.
Councilmember Rog noted comments from the planning commission about collaboration with
other commissions and mentioned it is a great way to help merge expertise. She added this will
reduce barriers to participation and is a goal for the council as well. She noted an upcoming
study session will feature idea sharing with city staff.
Councilmember Rog added she likes the idea of a housing analysis and asked if the commission
looks at the Maxfield Housing Analysis every few years. She asked if targets are not prescriptive,
what does the commission see policy targets being. Mr. Eckholm stated the commission was
not as interested in policy targets regarding a specific renter versus owner occupied housing
ratio, but on studying what we have currently, along with capacity, areas of the community that
are established, and also have room to grow.
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 3e) Page 5
Title: Study session minutes of April 26, 2021
Mr. Walther added Assistant Housing Supervisor Marney Olson has presented the Maxfield
analysis to the commission regularly, and also shares the new and expanded programs the city
offers to help provide context to the commission as they perform their duties. Councilmember
Rog suggested they make sure to look at this document.
Councilmember Rog added moving forward, if the city wants to change inequities, it might have
to radically change, adding she is open to that and partnering with the commission going
forward.
Commissioner Weber noted if the council wants the commission to work on certain items or
areas, or to have an expanded role, they could provide additional direction to the commission,
adding this might help the commission move forward on certain areas.
Councilmember Rog stated she appreciated that clarity, adding this is relevant to most of the
city’s boards and commissions, and stated the council will continue to try to address this.
Councilmember Dumalag stated she is impressed with the work of the planning commission,
noting this is a robust set of items the council has tasked the commission to do. She will look
forward to the commission’s recommendations related to the housing analysis and unintended
consequences of one owner with multiple properties.
Councilmember Dumalag added she likes the space for home-based businesses if it is allowed
by the city from a land use perspective. She stated it is in the city’s best interest to make
affordable housing safe. She appreciated the discussions around food security and access,
stating the mobile market can help from a use perspective, and can be allowed in certain parts
of the city. She stated she is also interested in the racial equity portion and the collaboration
with the ESC. Councilmember Dumalag added she appreciates looking at parking, noting so
often parking is the way a development gets evaluated.
Councilmember Kraft asked what specific questions would the commission ask of council.
Commissioner Weber stated an example of a parking lot issue at Costco. He noted the
commission decided that asking for a redesign of the parking lot would not be within the
commission’s scope. He stated if council had told them in advance to pursue this issue, the
commission may have voted differently on it and asked businesses in that area to come
together with a solution for all.
Mr. Walther stated staff usually takes a role on this type of issue and is mindful of what the
council has on its broad strategic priorities as well as its study session topics, and most
importantly what has been formally adopted in the comprehensive plan or other policies. He
added the commission has study sessions as time allows based on the volume of current
planning and zoning applications, and noted they want to focus on the highest priorities. The
purpose of this discussion is to receive input from the city council regarding the priorities
identified in the work plan.
Mayor Spano pointed out the commission has legal authorities, which is different than other
commissions, adding those need to be looked at first in order to avoid legal problems for the
city.
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 3e) Page 6
Title: Study session minutes of April 26, 2021
Councilmember Brausen agreed with Mayor Spano on this and on the planning commission
needing guard rails, adding it is not the proper scope for the planning commission to level any
land use, noting it is up to staff and the city attorney. He stated it is important to conform with
the city’s laws and policies.
Mayor Spano stated he liked the idea of walking to a corner store, but noted the council and
commission needs to be prepared that this might shift expectations with residents and change
existing aspects of neighborhoods. He added with parking, the council and commission will
need to know they will be faced with frustrated residents, need to preface a conversation shift
with residents, and be conscious of that.
Mayor Spano asked Commissioner Imran how different his experience is here on the planning
commission versus when he served on a planning commission in Kenya. Commissioner Imran
stated it was quite different especially related to zoning and city ordinances. Mayor Spano
thanked Commissioner Imran for his work on the commission and taking responsibility for
complicated issues.
Councilmember Rog noted the commission’s input on a recent application and some of the
challenges that are identified by commissioners or the public through the process. She stated
this is where boards and commissions with public engagement can shine and get to best
outcomes. She would like the commission to leverage their role to get best outcomes for our
city, adding this is worth pursuing.
3. Zoning code size limits for houses
Mr. Morrison presented to the council. He asked if council wants to revise the code size limits
scale of additions and new construction for houses.
Councilmember Rog stated she appreciated the report and the planning commission’s work on
this. She noted it has been three years since this was discussed and she believes the council is
now more systems focused and aligned with goals. She explained there are three outcomes
that should be worked towards: affordability, move up options, and impact of large homes on
neighbors. She felt the way it is being approached is piecemeal and the end impact would be
limited, adding she thinks the council can do better. She suggested staff step back and take
another look at the levers and focus on these outcomes.
Councilmember Rog added the Move up in the Park program has become income restricted, a
large group who do not qualify is being left out, and those folks are leaving the city. She also
wants to see more data on allowing “McMansions”, and if that has an impact on people moving
out of the city. She stated staff needs to get more formal input from neighbors and suggested
council ask staff to explore more policy changes that help to achieve goals. She stated she will
bring a new study session topic forward and asked staff to work on new goals that align with
council priorities.
Councilmember Kraft agreed with Councilmember Rog’s comments. He added it would be
helpful to step back and look at this in a more holistic manner, noting there are 10-15
teardowns per year in St. Louis Park and in Edina there are 150 per year. He stated St. Louis
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 3e) Page 7
Title: Study session minutes of April 26, 2021
Park is running out of properties, he fears there could be more teardowns per year, and he
wants to look at how the council wants the community to look over time.
Councilmember Kraft added council needs to look at more significantly affordable homes, have
staff help define this, and prevent an epidemic of teardowns and building of “McMansions”. He
added redevelopment should be balanced against incomes and priorities and questioned how
the city meets these goals using the mix of policies it has.
Councilmember Harris stated she keeps reflecting on light and shadow and noted one of the
things that impacts the quality of life is access to natural light. She added the height of a
structure is less of a concern, but it can become problematic if the grade is built up.
Councilmember Harris stated she is in favor of leaving room for expanding home sizes but is
worried about people moving out. She supports the Move up in the Park program but is
struggling with how encouraging expansion of homes will meet the city’s climate goals. She
agrees with Councilmember Rog on the systems approach and wants to move forward on
further discussion of this in the future.
Councilmember Brausen stated he is supportive of this, noting over the years residents have
pushed back on tear downs and McMansions. He stated if there is something the city can do to
allow some without totally eliminating tear downs, he is willing to look at that. He added the
council needs clarity on goals and which will be primary, climate impact or the desires of the
homeowner. He worries about a systems approach, about scope of where this goes, and sees it
as a heavy lift.
Councilmember Dumalag stated she agrees with the council but noted there also needs to be a
conversation on investment and how does one buy into St. Louis Park, and the idea of the
creation of wealth through real estate. She added it is a conversation worth having, noting it is
difficult for young families to move here.
Mayor Spano stated he is not sure what the council is trying to fix here, noting St. Louis Park
does not have the numbers that Edina or Minnetonka have with tear downs. He stated this is a
lot of work for a very small return, which he does not favor. He noted it is not a good use of the
planning commission’s or staff’s time, the majority of these are arbitrary, and staff shouldn’t be
making subjective assessments on architectural style. Mayor Spano added when he looks at the
scope of this, he is not interested in taking this up when it only affects 20 homes.
Councilmember Rog stated she is not looking to prohibit people from expanding their homes or
get rid of housing options for people, adding that many residents have a viewpoint on this
issue.
Councilmember Rog stated St. Louis Park is not Edina, but based on realtors’ perceptions, it
could be another Edina, where fewer than 150 of their homes are less than $400,000. She has
concerns the city could become like Edina as well, while adding all people should be supported
to have ownership in the community, including BIPOC groups. She would like to take up this
discussion sooner rather than later, and if the council is looking at creating more affordability, it
will be remiss in not doing system-thinking.
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 3e) Page 8
Title: Study session minutes of April 26, 2021
Mayor Spano agreed this could be a problem in a year or two, but it hasn’t materialized yet,
and added stepping back to take a broader view of this would be helpful, but he is not
interested in these proposed policy changes.
It was the consensus of the council to discontinue discussion of this item, and Councilmember
Rog will resubmit this topic and rework it into a broader context for city council to consider
adding to the future study session discussion list.
4. Future study session agenda planning and prioritization
Mayor Spano and Councilmember Rog discussed Dakota Bridge and the idea of reaching out to
the Dakota Sioux to see if they want to have a relationship with the city, related to the bridge.
Mayor Spano stated this would also be about an art project involving the tribal community and
St. Louis Park.
Councilmember Rog stated Dakota Park is in her ward, adding she reached out to Jamie about
this, and noted that all kinds of things can come along with land acknowledgements. She noted
they would like to have staff investigate this further. Ms. Walsh stated staff will do this, and Ms.
Solano stated she has been working with Jamie and can look further into this.
Councilmember Brausen stated the May 10 agenda looks very long and he would like to reduce
the time allotments of the commission presentations. Mayor Spano suggested one of the
commission’s presentations be moved to another meeting, rather than shortening times.
Councilmember Dumalag stated she does want to hear from the HRC as they are working on
the Summer of Action events.
Ms. Solano stated she will look at the council calendar to see what can move around.
Communications/meeting check-in (verbal)
Councilmember Harris stated Minneapolis St. Paul Magazine listed St. Louis Park three times in
their latest issue, related to the Texa Tonka area, the Nordicware new café, and the Beehive.
Councilmember Harris stated she would like an update on the Place project and also on
Sidewalk Poetry. Ms. Barton stated the Place project is having cash flow and timing problems,
but they have assured staff the work stoppage is only temporary, and they anticipate they will
have their funding in the next couple of weeks.
Ms. Solano noted the Sidewalk Poetry project launched its first ever contest near Walker
Library as people stated they wanted to see art in unexpected places within the city. She stated
poems can be submitted until May 23, and the next area to feature poetry is Texas Avenue and
36th Street, which is considered an art desert, with no art nearby.
Councilmember Kraft asked that staff put an explanation on the city website about St. Louis
Park police involvement in Operation Safety Net. He stated there have been questions and it
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 3e) Page 9
Title: Study session minutes of April 26, 2021
needs to be made clear and transparent as to what occurred, and to allow residents to weigh in
as well.
Councilmember Rog agreed, adding how the explanation is phrased and first amendment rights
being a top concern, are important. She stated it is unclear how taxes are supporting or not
supporting police actions, and this should be addressed also.
Councilmember Brausen stated while he supports the police in Operation Safety Net, if there
were an emergency, the city would need this same type of support from police in the metro
area so if a statement is made, it must be clear that the council supports the police and the
work they are doing here.
Mayor Spano stated the council can ask communications to reflect on this and have Chief
Harcey review it prior to posting, with what should and should not be included.
Councilmember Kraft referenced the written reports and stated he would like to scrutinize the
TIF at 3440 Beltline Ave., adding this is a desirable location.
Councilmember Dumalag added that a neighborhood meeting has been scheduled on Opus
proposal and Beltline.
The meeting adjourned at 9:44 p.m.

The motion passed 7-0.
7. Requests, petitions, and communications from the public – none
8. Resolutions, ordinances, motions, and discussion items
8a. First reading of ordinance pertaining to fences and yard definitions for
accessory structures
Mr. Morrison presented the staff report.
Councilmember Brausen asked about a house on Cedar Lake Road that is on the angle
and points toward the corner, and if the front is where the address would be located.
Mr. Morrison stated the address does not determine the front yard, and homeowners
can switch their address back and forth when in a situation like this on a corner.
Councilmember Dumalag stated she remembers this coming in front of BOZA earlier this
year and asked if this was because a cedar privacy fence is located here. Mr. Morrison
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 3f) Page 4
Title: City council meeting minutes of May 3, 2021
stated it is the height of the fence that is causing the problem. The house faces Texas
Circle, but the front yard is on Texas Avenue. As a result, even though the fence is on
the side of the house, it is technically in the front yard since it is proposed between the
house and Texas Avenue. Therefore, it has a height limit of four feet.
Councilmember Rog asked if under this ordinance, ADUs would be allowed in a front
yard. Mr. Morrison stated detached ADUs are accessory buildings and, therefore, are
only allowed behind the house.
Councilmember Rog asked if this ordinance is only about fences. Mr. Morrison stated
yes, and the ordinance adds fences to the group of structures governed by the
secondary yard definitions.
Councilmember Rog stated she is not a fan of 6-foot fences and does appreciate the
change in the ordinance, adding the report was well written and not confusing.
Councilmember Harris asked if a 6-foot fence is allowed in the side yard if adjacent to a
neighbor’s front yard. Mr. Morrison stated yes, noting that this is a condition that exists
today and is allowed.
Councilmember Harris asked if fence heights are limited when adjacent to sidewalks.
Mr. Morrison stated no, but there are limitations at intersections for visibility purposes.
He added the intent is for safety.
Councilmember Harris commented on walkability in commercial districts and asked if in
the future the city might consider walkability along sidewalks and legislating fence
height.
Councilmember Kraft thanked the planning commission, BOZA and staff for their work
on this. He stated he is pleased with this work and allowing taller fences along-side of
houses.
Mayor Spano stated the assumption is there will be fences that are non-conforming and
will be left alone until reconstructed. Mr. Morrison stated he cannot think of any that
have a 6-foot fence in the front yard at this time.
Mayor Spano noted he is impressed that Mr. Morrison knows this information. He asked
how the city treats exceptions to this. Mr. Morrison stated higher fences, such at 8-foot,
are only allowed at highways and parking lots, so there are no exceptions in residential
code, and 6 feet is the maximum.
It was moved by Councilmember Brausen, seconded by Councilmember Rog, to approve
the first reading of an ordinance amending Section 36-162 (b) pertaining to fences and
yard definitions for accessory structures and set second reading for May 17, 2021.
The motion passed 7-0.
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 3f) Page 5
Title: City council meeting minutes of May 3, 2021
9. Communications
Mr. Harmening stated the application period is now closed for the city manager position,
adding that 60 applications were received. He stated the consultant will go through these
applications, narrow it down to 12 or so, and then present these to council on May 17, 2021.
From there, the applications will be reduced to the final list of 3-5 and then in-person
interviews will be conducted by the council.
Councilmember Dumalag asked if by May 17, when there are 12 applications, will they be made
public at that time. Mr. Harmening stated they will not be made public until the last round and
the council will not discuss the 12 applicants by name during the meeting. He noted names will
be made public when candidates are officially considered to be finalists.
Councilmember Kraft asked if 60 applications was a good number and if the consultant was
pleased with that. Mr. Harmening stated yes.
Councilmember Rog asked if the national spotlight of recent events had any impact on the
applications received. Mr. Harmening stated he did not know but could find out.
Councilmember Harris stated she was in communication with Paster Properties related to the
Texa-tonka project and noted there is a supply chain issue with a shortage on coolers, which is
slowing down the opening of Revival. She noted the restaurant should be opening in mid- to
late-June, and the same also for the Angel Food bakery.
Councilmember Rog asked if there is any news on the Place project. Mr. Harmening stated
there is nothing new to report at this time.
Mr. Harmening noted a follow up to a question from Councilmember Rog regarding the weekly
report about police calls for service related to catalytic converter thefts in St. Louis Park. Mr.
Harmening stated there have been 82 thefts since May 3, 2020, and 3 attempted thefts.
Mr. Harmening stated the city will hold a catalytic converter clinic on Saturday, May 23, 2021 so
folks can bring their cars to the municipal center to have converters painted or etched, to deter
them from being stolen. He stated this is a free service and there will be 70 spots open and
sign-ups.
Mr. Harmening added a bait car can also be utilized to help deter thefts and Chief Harcey is
working on this as well. Funding will be made possible through crime fund donations.
Councilmember Rog asked if police fines and fees are accrued to the police department and
then used to fund such things as the bait car. Mr. Harmening stated there are rules around
what fees can be used for. He added fines and fees for traffic tickets go into the city’s general
fund.
Mayor Spano thanked Wat Prom for hosting a vaccination clinic with the county, noting they
were tremendous hosts and a great partner in this.
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 3f) Page 6
Title: City council meeting minutes of May 3, 2021
Mayor Spano also reminded folks that May 15, 2021 there is a festival at Wat Prom for all to
attend, and Sunday, May 9, 2021 is Mother’s Day.

Executive summary
Title: Accept donation from the St. Louis Park American Legion
Recommended action: Motion to adopt Resolution approving acceptance of $3,000 to be used
to purchase three BolaWraps to be evaluated in the field as a less-than-lethal use of force option.
Policy consideration: Does the city council wish to accept the gift with restrictions on its use?
Summary: State statute requires city council’s acceptance of donations. This requirement is
necessary in order to make sure the city council has knowledge of any restrictions placed on the
use of each donation prior to it being expended.
The St. Louis Park Police Department has a strong history of being innovative in providing a safe
community through quality service, community partnerships and professionalism. One of the
challenges for a modern police department is meeting our community’s demand to address
crime and disorder while minimizing the use of force to achieve this objective. When necessary,
officers must use force to gain control of dangerous or combative subjects. Often, this has the
potential to cause injury to either the subject and/or the officer(s) that are involved in the
incident. Currently, patrol officers are limited in their available responses during use of force
incidents to hands-on techniques, OC spray, taser, batons, or firearms. All available responses
rely on some method of pain compliance to work, and each with increasing probability of injury.
Officers would benefit from a device that does not rely on pain compliance, can be applied from
a distance, easily subdues a subject to be taken into custody and offers limited injury risk.
BolaWrap has the potential to be that device. (www.wrap.com)
The BolaWrap device allows officers to apply a restraint cable while remaining at a safe
distance from the subject. The device propels a Kevlar cable at a distance between eight feet
and 20 feet from the subject, immobilizing the part(s) of the body targeted. The BolaWrap
can effectively restrain arms, legs or both prior to officers approaching. The level of force in
BolaWrap deployments has been considered the equivalent of handcuffing by agencies that
are utilizing it. The donation to purchase the BolaWrap will allow the police department the
opportunity to evaluate the tool in the field as a less-than-lethal use of force tool.
The city attorney has reviewed this matter. His opinion is that state law permits the payment
of such expenses by this organization, regardless of whether the funds come from primary or
secondary sources. It is treated as a gift to the city and therefore needs a resolution adopted by the
city council, determining that accepting this gift furthers the police department’s commitment to
providing a safe community through quality service, community partnerships and professionalism.
Financial or budget considerations: None
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to creating opportunities to build
social capital through community engagement.

Title: Accept donation from the St. Louis Park American Legion
Resolution No. 21-___
Accept donation from the St. Louis Park American Legion
Whereas, the city of St. Louis Park is required by state statute to authorize acceptance of
any donations; and
Whereas, the city council must also ratify any restrictions placed on the donation by the
donor; and
Now therefore be it resolved, the St. Louis Park American Legion has graciously donated
$3,000 to be used to purchase three BolaWraps to be evaluated in the field as a less-than-lethal
use of force option.
It is further resolved, by the city council of the city of St. Louis Park that the gift is hereby
accepted with thanks to the St. Louis Park American Legion for their generosity and support of
the police department’s commitment to providing a safe community through quality service,
community partnerships and professionalism.

Executive summary
Title: Bid tabulation – award bid for Belt Line SWLRT pedestrian improvements- 4022-2000
Recommended action: Motion to designate Thomas and Sons Construction the lowest
responsible bidder and authorize a contract with the firm in the amount of $1,132,245.06 for
Belt Line SWLRT pedestrian improvements (4022-2000).
Policy consideration: Does the city council wish to pursue the installation of sidewalks and trails
connecting to the future Belt Line Blvd SWLRT station area?
Summary: A total of three (3) bids were received for this project on May 13, 2021. A summary
of the bid results is as follows:
CONTRACTOR BID AMOUNT
Thomas and Sons Construction $1,132,245.06
GL Contracting Inc. $1,175,145.40
New Look Contracting, Inc. $1,186,315.50
Engineer’s estimate $826,978.70
The bid review indicates Thomas and Sons Construction submitted the lowest responsible bid.
Thomas and Sons Construction has completed this type and size of work successfully in other
cities. In addition, they are the contractor that is working on the Monterey-Belt Line-36th
improvement project near the Rec Center. Staff recommends that a contract be awarded to the
firm in the amount of $1,132,245.06
Financial or budget considerations: This project is included in the city’s Capital Improvement
Plan (CIP) for 2021. A combination of general obligation bonds and federal funds are expected
to be utilized to pay for the project. Additional information on the breakdown of the funding
can be found later in this report.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing a variety of options for
people to make their way around the city comfortably, safely and reliably.

Title: Bid tabulation – award bid for Belt Line SWLRT pedestrian improvements- 4022-2000
Discussion
Background: Council approved the final plans and specifications and authorized bidding
documents on March 15, 2021.
An advertisement for bids was published in the St. Louis Park Sun Sailor on April 22 and April 29,
2021, and in Finance and Commerce on April 22 through May 5, 2021. Email notification was
provided to four (4) minority associations, and final printed plans were available for viewing at
City Hall. In addition, plans and specifications were made available electronically via the
internet on the city’s eGram website.
Thirty-eight (38) contractors/vendors obtained plan sets, including five (5) Disadvantage
Business Enterprises (DBEs).
Project scope: The sidewalks and trail associated with this project are considered a retrofit
project that utilizes the existing right of way to add more connected pedestrian infrastructure
to a future light rail station. The approved design for the segments are:
•Ottawa Avenue from Minnetonka Boulevard to County Road 25:
o Remove west sidewalk and install a multi-use trail, narrowing Ottawa Avenue
o Replace sections of the existing sidewalk on the east side to meet ADA
requirements and repair broken panels
o Curb extension on west approach of 31st Street
o Curb extension and removal of median on west approach of N County Road 25
Service Road
o Surmountable curbs
o Removal of on-street parking
•Lynn Avenue from Minnetonka Boulevard to N County Road 25 Service Road:
o Widen sidewalk along west side
o Complete sidewalk along east side
o Converted to one-way southbound vehicle traffic
o Curb extensions for each approach at N County Road 25 Service Road
intersection
o Pedestrian/bicycle connection to cross County Road 25
The intersection of County Road 25 at Lynn Avenue will be signalized with
SWLRT construction.
o Surmountable curbs
o On-street parking moved from east side to west side of Lynn Avenue
•Beltline Boulevard from Park Glen Road to 36th Street:
o Install multi-use trail along the west side with boulevard and trees
In addition to these approved elements, the city was working with Xcel Energy to remove their
utility poles along the west side of Lynn Avenue and bury the lines. Unfortunately, during final
design, Xcel determined that additional easements were needed to complete this work.
Easements take 3 to 6 months to acquire. A delay of this duration would mean the project
would not meet the federal schedule deadlines for this project, resulting in loss of funding. Due
to this, this work is no longer being pursued as a part of this project.

Title: Bid tabulation – award bid for Belt Line SWLRT pedestrian improvements- 4022-2000
Financial considerations: A combination of general obligation (GO) bonds and federal funding
are expected to be utilized to pay for this project. The updated financial information is shown in
the table below. CIP Low bid
Construction cost $1,299,350.00 $1,132,245.06
Engineering and administration $324,837.00 $333,783.24
Right of way $0.00 $235,110.00
Total $1,624,187.00 $1,701,138.30
Funding sources
Federal funds $560,000.00 $560,000.00
General obligation bonds $1,064,187.00 $1,141,138.30
Total $1,624,187.00 $1,701,138.30
Due to the nature of construction projects, unexpected costs come up. To address this, past
practice has been to show a contingency for the project. What follows is a table that shows this
contingency and how this would affect the project costs.
Low Bid Contingency
(5%) Engineering Right of way Total
GO bonds $572,245.06 $56,612.25 $333,783.24 $235,110.00 $1,197,750.55
Federal aid $560,000 * * * $560,000.00
Total $1,132,245.06 $56,612.25 $333,783.24 $235,110.00 $1,757,750.55
*Federal funds can only be used for construction costs and are capped at the amount shown.
There are not additional federal funds available should unexpected costs occur. Contingency
cost for this funding source is added to the GO bonds contingency.
The low bid is $305,266.36 (36.9%) over the engineer’s construction estimate. However, the
overall project cost is $76,951.30 (4.74%) over the CIP estimate, with contingency this increases
to $133,564 (8.2%) over. This is primarily due to right of way costs. The need for right of way
was identified during project design and was not included in the CIP estimate.
Bid analysis: There are three potential options open to the city when a project cost is higher
than what is estimated. These are: Reject the bid and rebid for this year, reject the bid and
delay the project until a future year, or award the bid.
To prepare our recommendation for award, staff explored these options and recommends
awarding the bid. We developed this recommendation after reaching out to the contractors to
better understand the reasons for the bids being higher than estimated and reviewing the overall
financial summary for our 2021 transportation and maintenance projects. After reviewing the
options, bid environment, and the overall finances, we recommend awarding the bid.
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 4c) Page 4
Title: Bid tabulation – award bid for Belt Line SWLRT pedestrian improvements- 4022-2000
The primary reason for the bid pricing is that the cost of materials has increased in the last few
months. Due to this, staff does not recommend going back out to bid for this project in 2021
since it is unlikely that the pricing will change. In addition, a delay of 6 to 8 weeks to rebid will
result in the project not being completed this year.
Delaying the project to 2022 or later will likely not result in reduced pricing. It is expected that
the material costs will not change in the foreseeable future. We estimate that delaying this
project to 2022 would result in an increase of about $550,000. This is based on:
•Thomas and Sons is the contractor for the Monterey-Belt Line-36th improvement
project. They indicated that their bid pricing reflects an increase in efficiency by having
these two projects adjacent to each other. Their bid would probably be 15% higher if
the other project didn’t exist. That project will be complete this fall.
•The temporary easements have an expiration date in the fall of 2021. We would need to
reacquire the easements, with an estimated cost of $60,000.
•The engineering cost to rebid the project would be $12,000.
To complete pedestrian connections to the future Belt Line SWLRT station to serve our
community, staff recommends that we move ahead with this project in 2021. To accomplish
this, engineering has reviewed the contract costs with the Chief Financial Officer. There is
adequate funding for this project available due to cost savings on other transportation and
maintenance projects in the 2021 CIP.
Attached is the overall financial summary for the transportation and maintenance projects
included in the 2021 CIP. Table 1 shows the actual costs, including contingency for the projects
that the city council has awarded. The highlighted $610,469 is the budget amount left after the
project costs in the table. We have two projects remaining in 2021 with a budget estimate of
$238,588 for those projects. We are on track to be under budget in total for our 2021
transportation and maintenance projects.
Bonds were issued in April for all the projects included in the 2021 CIP. The total debt levy
increase for 2023 is projected to be 3.80%. This is based on 10-year bonding for most of the
projects, with a longer 15-year term for the Louisiana bridge project. Additional detail on
bonding and the levy projections will be discussed during the 2022 budget process.
Schedule and next steps: Staff will bring construction bids back to council in May for approval.
The project is expected to start construction in June and take approximately five months to
complete.

Executive summary
Title: Approval of inclusionary housing policy as amended
Recommended action: Motion to approve the amended inclusionary housing policy to require
the inclusion of family size units (three bedrooms or larger) in developments with 50 or more
units, to clarify language related to the provision of on-site vehicle parking for affordable units,
and to add a definition for homeownership.
Policy consideration: Do the proposed policy amendments meet the expectations and intent of
the council?
Summary: The inclusionary housing policy was initially approved in June 2015 and amended in
May 2017, August 2018, and April 2019. The topic of amending the policy to provide clarity on
the need for developers to provide family sized units ranked priority 2 for council discussion.
The current policy requires new market-rate multi-family residential rental properties with ten
or more units that receive financial assistance from the city, seek PUD land use approvals or
request a comprehensive plan amendment, to include units affordable to low income
households in the development. In the case of a for-sale property, developers are required to
make a payment to the city in lieu of including affordable units in the project. Based on the
council’s interest in creating rental opportunities for larger size families and the need to clarify
language related to parking requirements for the affordable units, staff is proposing the
following policy amendments to the Inclusionary Housing Policy:
1. Developments with 50 units or greater will be required to include a minimum number of
family size units (three bedroom or larger) in the development. The specific number of
three plus bedroom size units required per development will be based on the total
number of units in the development.
2. If underground or enclosed parking is the only on-site parking option available for
residents, an enclosed parking stall must be offered to the tenant at a discount from the
market rate fee. Parking will be included in the rent fee for units affordable at 30% AMI.
For units affordable at 50% and 60% AMI, the market rate parking fee will be discounted
to a level equal to the affordability level of the affordable units in the development.
3. Homeownership definition.
A study session report on these amendments was provided to the council on May 10, 2021.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing a broad range of
housing and neighborhood oriented development.

Title: Inclusionary housing policy proposed amendments
Discussion
Background: The inclusionary housing policy was initially approved in June 2015 and amended
in May 2017, August 2018, and April 2019. The current policy requires new market-rate multi-
family residential rental properties with ten or more units that receive financial assistance from
the city, seek PUD land use approvals or request a comprehensive plan amendment to include
units affordable to low income households in the development. In the case of a for-sale
property, the developer is required to make a payment in lieu of including affordable units. The
number of affordable units required in each development is dependent on the level of
affordability of the units and the total number of units in the development. Developers can
choose to include units affordable to households whose incomes are at 30%, 50%, or 60% area
medium income (AMI).
Present Considerations:
Family size unit requirement
Based on the council’s interest in promoting the creation of rental opportunities for larger size
families, it is proposed that the Inclusionary Housing Policy be amended to include the following
language:
Developments with 50 units or greater are required to include a minimum number of
family size units (three-bedroom or larger). The minimum number of family size units
required per development is based on the total number of units in the development as
noted in the table below.
Building Size – total
residential units
Required Minimum Number of
family size units (3+ bedrooms)
50 - 74 2
75 – 99 3
100 - 124 4
125 - 149 5
150 – 174 6
175 + 7
Developments with age restrictions serving households 55 years of age or older are exempt
from this requirement. Any deviation from the family size unit policy requires city approval.
The 50 unit or greater development size threshold for this requirement was established in
recognition of the increased cost of developing three bedroom and larger size units and the
decreased rent revenue generated per square foot by family size units. Larger developments
can more easily absorb additional construction and operating costs associated with including
family size units. Also, the requirements listed above are the minimum number of family size
units that must be included in a development. The Affordable Housing Trust Fund can be used
as a tool to encourage developers to exceed the minimum requirements.
Parking requirement
Building sites available in St. Louis Park for multi-family residential developments are often
limited in size. Adequate land for surface parking is typically very limited and the parking is
often reserved for visitors or commercial business parking. In order to meet zoning related
parking requirements developments most often rely on underground or enclosed parking.
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 4d) Page 3
Title: Inclusionary housing policy proposed amendments
Although it is important that the affordable tenants have access to adequate parking, it is also
recognized that underground and enclosed parking is expensive to build. In order to provide a
reasonable option that will ensure tenants have access to on-site vehicle parking while
preventing the parking requirements from becoming a deterrent to developers from including a
greater number of affordable units in a development, the following parking requirements are
proposed:
The Inclusionary Policy requires that at least one on-site parking stall (either surface or
enclosed) be provided for each affordable unit. If adequate on-site surface parking exists
as determined by the city based on the development’s parking plan, the requirement
will be met by providing a surface space to the resident at no additional cost to the
tenant. If underground or enclosed parking is the only on-site parking option available
for residents, an enclosed parking stall must be offered to the tenant at a discounted
rate. The market rate parking fee will be discounted based on the affordability level of
the inclusionary units in the development as follows:
Inclusionary affordability level Parking fee cost to resident
30 % AMI Free – included in rent
50% AMI 50% of the market rate fee *
60% AMI 60% of the market rate fee*
*Example: if the market rate fee for parking is $100 per month, residents in inclusionary units at the 50%
AMI affordability level will pay $50 per month; residents in inclusionary units at the 60% AMI affordability
level will pay $60 per month.
For developments utilizing a combination of surface parking and enclosed parking to
meet the inclusionary parking requirements, a waiting list will be established, and
parking options will be offered based on placement on the list.
City approval must be obtained for any proposed alternative to the parking
requirements noted in the Policy.
Homeownership Definition
The policy has also been amended to include a definition of a homeownership which clarifies
that a development with a cooperative form of ownership is considered a type of
homeownership under the policy.
Next Steps: Upon approval of the amended Inclusionary Housing Policy, the new requirements
will become effective immediately for any future residential housing developments that have
not yet entered into a development agreement with the city or submitted a planning
application for a development.

Title: Inclusionary housing policy proposed amendments
Inclusionary Housing Policy
This policy promotes high quality housing for households with a variety of income levels, ages,
and sizes in order to meet the city's goal of preserving and promoting economically diverse
housing options in our community.
The city recognizes the need to provide affordable housing to households of a broad range of
income levels in order to maintain a diverse population and to provide housing for those who
live or work in the city. Without intervention, the trend toward rising housing prices in new
developments will continue to increase. As a result, this policy is being adopted to ensure that a
reasonable proportion of each new development receiving city financial assistance, seeking
PUD land use approvals or requesting a comprehensive plan amendment include units
affordable to low-and-moderate income households and working families or in the case of for-
sale units, make a payment in lieu of including affordable units.
The requirements set forth in this policy further the city’s housing goals and the city’s
comprehensive plan to create and preserve affordable housing opportunities. These
requirements are intended to provide a structure for participation by both the public and
private sectors in the production of affordable housing.
I. Applicability and minimum project size
This policy applies to market rate multi-unit residential developments that receive financial
assistance from the city, seek PUD land use approvals or request a comprehensive plan
amendment, and includes:
a) new developments that create at least 10 multi-family dwelling units; or
b) any mixed-use building that creates at least 10 multi-family dwelling units; or
c) renovation or reconstruction of an existing building that contains multi-family dwelling
units that includes at least 10 dwelling units; or
d) any change in use of all or part of an existing building from a non- residential use to a
residential use that includes at least 10 dwelling units.
The development must comply with the Inclusionary Housing Policy as amended and approved
by the city council as of the date the development enters into a development agreement with
the city or submits a planning application for the project, whichever action comes first.

II. Affordable dwelling units
General requirement
Rental developments and for-sale developments subject to this policy shall provide a minimum
number of affordable dwelling units or a payment in lieu subject to the requirements listed below.
Calculation of units and payment in lieu required.
For development of multi-family dwelling units:
a) The required number of affordable dwelling units or corresponding payment in lieu is
based on the total number of dwelling units that are approved by the city or the number
of naturally occurring affordable housing (NOAH) dwelling units that are being
demolished or converted to a use other than low-income dwelling units in connection
with construction of the development.
b) To calculate the number of affordable dwelling units or payment in lieu required in a
development the total number of approved dwelling units shall be multiplied by five
percent (5%), ten percent (10%), fifteen percent (15%) or twenty (20%) depending on
the affordability standard. If the final calculation includes a fraction, the fraction of a
unit shall be rounded to the nearest whole number.
c) If an occupied rental property with existing dwelling units is remodeled and/or
expanded, the number of affordable dwelling units shall be based on the total number
of units following completion of renovation/expansion. At least five percent (5%), ten
percent (10%) or twenty percent (20%) shall be affordable, depending on the
affordability standard.
d) NOAH dwelling units that are being demolished or converted to a use other than low-
income dwelling units in connection with construction of the development must be
replaced in the new development on a one-for-one basis. New developments must
include a minimum number of affordable dwelling units equal to at least five percent
(5%) to twenty percent (20%) of the total number of dwelling units in the development
or the number of naturally occurring affordable housing dwelling units that are being
demolished or converted, whichever is greater. Any deviation from replacing NOAH
units on a one-for-one basis requires city approval.
*A NOAH unit is defined as a unit in which the amount of rent charged is affordable
to a household whose income is at or below 60% area median income based on
bedroom size, or for a for-sale unit, affordable to a household whose income is at or
below 80% AMI.
e) For-sale home ownership developments will be required to pay a payment in lieu of
including affordable units in the development. The payment in lieu will be an amount
equal to the difference between the average market rate sale price of the for-sale units
in the development and the for-sale home purchase amount affordable to a household
with an income at or below eighty percent (80%) AMI. The amount of the difference
will be multiplied by a number equal to fifteen percent (15%) of the total number of
for-sale units in the development. Home-ownership housing is defined as a form of
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 4d) Page 6
Title: Inclusionary housing policy proposed amendments
housing tenure in which a person, called the owner-occupier, owner-occupant, or homeowner,
owns the home in which they live. The home can be a house, such as a single-family
house, an apartment, condominium, or a housing cooperative.
III. Affordability level
The required number of affordable dwelling units within a residential project subject to this policy
shall meet an income eligibility and rent affordability standard for the term of the restriction as
follows:
a) Rental Projects:
a. At least twenty percent (20%) of the units shall be affordable for households at
sixty percent (60%) Area Median Income (AMI), or
b. At least ten percent (10%) of the units shall be at affordable for households at
fifty percent (50%) AMI, or
c. At least five percent (5%) of the units shall be affordable for households at thirty
percent (30%) AMI.
b) Demolished or converted NOAH units:
c) NOAH units demolished or converted to a use other than affordable housing in
connection with the construction of the new development must be replaced on a one-
for-one basis or at rate and affordability level as noted in III. a, whichever is greater. The
new units must be comparable in bedroom size to the units demolished or converted
and be affordable to households at 60% AMI or below.
*A NOAH unit is defined as a rental unit in which the amount of rent charged is affordable to a
household whose income is at or below 60% area median income based on bedroom size or a
for-sale unit affordable to a household whose income is at or below 80% AMI. NOAH status for
rental units will be based on the rents charged on the date 6 months prior to the submitting of
a development application.
d) For-sale projects:
For-sale home ownership developments will pay a payment in lieu of including
affordable units in the development. The payment in lieu will be an amount
equal to the difference between the average market rate sale price of the for-
sale units in the development and the current for-sale home purchase amount
affordable to a household with an income at or below eighty percent (80%) AMI.
The payment will be multiplied by a number equal to fifteen percent (15%) of
the total number of for-sale units in the development. NOAH pricing for for-sale
dwelling units shall be determined at time of issuance of the occupancy permit.
e) Rent and sale price level
Rental unit: The monthly rental cost for an affordable dwelling unit shall include
rent, utility costs, parking and any other non-optional monthly occupancy
charges. Surface parking for all inclusionary units, if available, or enclosed
parking for inclusionary units at the 30% AMI affordability level shall also be
included in the monthly rent for the unit. The maximum rent amount shall be
based on the metropolitan area that includes St. Louis Park adjusted for
bedroom size and calculated annually by the Department of Housing and Urban
Development and posted by Minnesota Housing for establishing rent limits for
the Housing Tax Credit Program.
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 4d) Page 7
Title: Inclusionary housing policy proposed amendments
For-sale projects: The qualifying affordable sale price for an owner-occupied
affordable dwelling unit shall be based on a homeownership unit affordable to a
household with income at or below eighty percent (80%) AMI for the
metropolitan area that includes St. Louis Park calculated annually by the
Department of Housing and Urban Development and posted by the Metropolitan
Council.
f) Period of affordability
For rental developments subject to this policy, the period of affordability for the
affordable dwelling units shall be at least twenty-five (25) years.
IV. Family sized unit requirement
Developments with 50 units or greater are required to include a minimum number of three,
four-bedroom or larger size units. The specific number of three, four-bedroom or larger size
units required per development is based on the total number of units in the development as
noted in the table below.
Building Size – total
residential units
Required Minimum Number of 3
and/or 4-bedroom or larger size
units
50 - 74 2
75 – 99 3
100 - 124 4
125 - 149 5
150 – 174 6
175 + 7
Developments with age restrictions serving households 55 years of age or older are exempt
from this requirement. Any deviation from the family size unit policy requires city approval.
V. Parking requirement
The Inclusionary Policy requires that at least one on-site parking stall (either surface or
enclosed) be provided for each affordable unit. If adequate on-site surface parking exists as
determined by the city based on the development’s parking plan, the requirement will be met
by providing a surface parking space at no additional cost to the tenant. If underground or
enclosed parking is the only on-site parking option available for residents, an enclosed parking
stall must be offered to the tenant at a discounted rate. The market rate parking fee will be
discounted based on the affordability level of the inclusionary units as follows:
Inclusionary affordability level Parking fee cost to resident
30 % AMI Free – included in rent
50% AMI 50% of the market rate fee *
60% AMI 60% of the market rate fee*
*Example: if the market rate fee for parking is $100 per month, residents of inclusionary units at the 50%
AMI affordability level will pay $50 per month; residents of inclusionary units at the 60% AMI affordability
level will pay $60 per month.
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 4d) Page 8
Title: Inclusionary housing policy proposed amendments
For developments utilizing a combination of surface parking and enclosed parking to meet the
inclusionary parking requirements, a waiting list will be established, and parking options will be
offered based on the resident’s placement on the list. Only inclusionary unit residents with a
tenant owned vehicle are eligible for parking at no or a reduced charge.
The resident’s monthly rent shall include the availability of adequate on-site parking for at least
one vehicle per affordable unit. If adequate on-site surface parking is not available, one
underground parking stall must be assigned to the unit; the cost of which is included in the
maximum rent amount. City approval must be obtained for any proposed alternative to the
parking requirements noted in the policy.
VI. Location of affordable rental dwelling units
Except as otherwise specifically authorized by this policy, the affordable dwelling units
shall be located within the development.
IV. Standards for inclusionary rental units
Size and design of affordable units
The size and design of the affordable dwelling units should be consistent and comparable with
the market rate units in the rest of the project and is subject to the approval of the city. The
interior of affordable dwelling units is not required to be identical to the market rate units but if
units are smaller than the other units with the same number of bedrooms in the development,
city approval must be obtained.
If naturally occurring affordable housing dwelling units are being demolished or converted to a
use other than lower-income dwelling units in connection with construction of the
development, an equal number of affordable units with a comparable number of bedrooms to
the units demolished or converted must be included in the new development.
Exterior/interior appearance.
The exterior materials and design of the affordable dwelling units in any development subject to
these regulations shall be indistinguishable in style and quality with the market rate units in the
development. The interior finish and quality of construction of the affordable dwelling units
shall at a minimum be comparable to entry level rental housing in the city. Construction of the
affordable dwelling units shall be concurrent with construction of market rate dwelling units.
VII. Integration of affordable dwelling units
Distribution of affordable rental housing units.
The affordable dwelling units shall be incorporated into the overall project unless expressly
allowed to be located in a separate building or a different location approved by the city
council. Affordable dwelling units shall be distributed throughout the building.
Number of bedrooms in the affordable units.
The affordable dwelling units shall have a number of bedrooms in the approximate proportion
as the market rate units. The mix of unit types, both bedroom and accessible units, of the
affordable dwelling units shall be approved by the city.
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 4d) Page 9
Title: Inclusionary housing policy proposed amendments
Tenants
Rental affordable dwelling units shall be rented only to income eligible families during the
period of affordability. A household that was income eligible at initial occupancy may remain in
the affordable dwelling unit for additional rental periods as long as the income of the
household does not exceed one-hundred forty percent (140%) of the applicable AMI.
Affordable units must be administered in compliance with the rules and procedures stated in
St. Louis Park’s Inclusionary Housing Program Guide.
VIII. Alternatives to on-site development of affordable dwelling units
This section provides alternatives to the construction of affordable dwelling unit’s onsite. The
alternatives are listed in subsection (c), below.
a) The alternatives must be:
1. Approved by the city council; and
2. Agreed to by the applicant in an Affordable Housing Performance
Agreement with the city; and
3. Applicant must show evidence acceptable to the city that a formal
commitment to the proposed alternative is in place.
b) This section does not apply unless the applicant demonstrates:
1. The alternative provides an equivalent or greater amount of affordable
dwelling units in a way that the city determines better achieves the goals,
objectives and policies of the city’s housing goals and Comprehensive
Plan than providing them onsite; and
2. Will not cause the city to incur any net cost as a result of the alternative
compliance mechanism.
c) If the conditions in (b) are met, the city may approve one or more of the following
options to providing affordable dwelling units that are required by this policy.
1. Dedication of existing units: Restricting existing dwelling units which are
approved by the city as suitable affordable housing dwelling units
through covenants or contractual arrangements. The city shall determine
whether the form and content of the restrictions comply with this policy.
Off-site units shall be located within the City of St. Louis Park. The
restriction of such existing units must result in the creation of units that
are of equivalent quality and size of the affordable dwelling units which
would have been constructed on-site if this alternative had not been
utilized.
2. Off-site construction: Offsite construction of affordable units must be
constructed within the city and should be located in proximity to public
transit service at a site approved by the city.
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 4d) Page 10
Title: Inclusionary housing policy proposed amendments
3. Partnering with an affordable housing developer: Participation in the
construction of affordable dwelling units by another developer on a
different site within the city.
4. Proposed alternative: An alternative proposed by the applicant that
directly provides or enables the provision of affordable housing units

condition of approval of the Affordable Housing Performance Agreement.
IX. Non-discrimination based on rent subsidies:
Developments covered by the policy must not discriminate against tenants who would pay their
rent with federal, state or local public assistance, including tenant based federal, state or local
subsidies, including, but not limited to rental assistance, rent supplements, and Housing Choice
Vouchers.
X. Affordable housing plan
a) Applicability

1. General information about the nature and scope of the development
subject to these regulations.
2. For requests of an alternative to on-site provision of affordable housing,
evidence that the proposed alternative will further affordably housing
opportunities in the city to an equivalent or greater extent than
compliance with the otherwise applicable on-site requirements of this
policy.

Executive summary
Title: Lease Amendment No. 2 to City Agreement No. 20-17 with T-Mobile for 5100 Park Glen Rd.
Recommended action: Motion to approve Amendment No. 2 to City Agreement No. 20-17,
between the city and T-Mobile Central LLC, for communication antennas on the city’s water
tower at 5100 Park Glen Road (Site no. A1P0022A).
Policy consideration: None at this time.
Summary: On June 3, 1996 the city council approved an original lease agreement with T-Mobile
allowing for the placement of antennas and related equipment on the Park Glen water tower.
On January 6, 2017 the city and T-Mobile entered into an amended and restated water tower
antenna lease agreement. T-Mobile desires to amend the agreement and remove all equipment
to allow for the reconditioning of the water tower by the city and then reinstall new
equipment.
This amendment grants T-Mobile the right and consent to updates in the communication facility
and the installation of equipment as described and depicted in exhibit A which is attached
hereto and by this reference incorporated herein, which equipment shall be considered part of
the communication facility under the lease.
The amendment has been reviewed and found to be acceptable by the city attorney.
Financial or budget considerations: The annual lease rate for 2022 of $44,944.86 has not
changed from the previous agreement due to no increase in equipment. The rent structure is
based on the number and type of antennas/auxiliary boxes and their height above ground on
the tower. The financial terms of this agreement require annual lease payments with a 5%
annual rate increase.
Strategic priority consideration: Not applicable.

Executive summary
Title: Temporary extension of licensed premises for events at Copperwing Distillery
Recommended action: Motion to approve a temporary extension of the licensed premises for
one-day events at Copperwing Distillery, located at 6409 Cambridge Street.
Policy consideration: Does the applicant meet the requirements for temporary extension of
their licensed premises for special, one-day events?
Summary: Copperwing Distillery, located at 6409 Cambridge Street, has requested a temporary
extension of their licensed premises for several one-day events throughout the spring and
summer of 2021. The “Block Parties” take place between 2 p.m. – midnight and will be held on
the following Saturdays: 6/19, 7/24, 8/14 and 9/25. The current licensed premises does not
include outdoor space and the applicant has proposed expanding the licensed premises
temporarily to the area immediately adjacent to the licensed premises for the events. None of
the other businesses in or adjacent to the event will be open during the requested times,
however Copperwing has obtained permission from the landowner and these businesses.
The events will feature Copperwing’s alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, multiple food
trucks, outdoor games, and music. Approximately 150-200 guests are expected to attend each
event and any projected audio will conclude by 11:30 p.m. or before. Fence barriers will be
placed around the event space to control entry and exit from the proposed area. In addition to
on-street parking, space will be available throughout the business center parking lot. The event
area will consume about 18 of the approximately 340 available off-street parking spaces.
Staff reviewed the request and found no issue with the proposed plans. Police and fire have
been notified and will ensure all safety and security measures are being met. Copperwing has
held similar events in the past and no issues or problems were experienced.
St. Louis Park City Code Section 3-106 states that “proposed enlargement or substantial
alteration which changes the character of the licensed establishment or extension of a premise
previously licensed shall not be allowed unless the city council approves an amendment to the
liquor license”. If approved, the temporary extension of the licensed premises would be valid
only for the dates and times outlined in the request.
Financial or budget considerations: Not applicable.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to creating opportunities to build
social capital through community engagement.

Title: Special assessment – sewer service line repair at 2840 Florida Avenue South
Recommended action: Motion to adopt Resolution authorizing the special assessment for the
repair of the sewer service line at 2840 Florida Avenue South, St. Louis Park, MN.
P.I.D. 08-117-21-44-0066.
Policy consideration: The proposed action is consistent with policy previously established by
the city council.
Summary: Alison Elwell, owner of the single-family residence at 2840 Florida Avenue South, has
requested the city authorize the repair of the sewer service line for her home and assess the
cost against the property in accordance with the city’s special assessment policy.
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 and/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 is 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 sewer
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 sewer service line repair and special assess the cost of the repair. The total eligible
cost of the repair has been determined to be $11,850.00.
Financial or budget considerations: The city has funds in place to finance the cost of this special
assessment.
Strategic priority consideration: Not applicable.

Applicant: Costco Wholesale Corporation
Case No: 21-09-S, 21-10-PUD
Mr. Morrison presented the report. Mr. Morrison noted a resident on the west side of
Costco expressed concern about commercial traffic on the service drive behind Costco,
and Costco loading and unloading. She stated that she opposes this application until this
is resolved.

Ms. Monson presented the report.
Commissioner Kraft asked about the rezoning and if the new developers want a PUD
back on that site, so as not to rezone twice. Ms. Monson stated the developers will ask
for a PUD on the property, to take full advantage of the transit-oriented development
land use on the site.
Chair Eckholm opened the public hearing. There were no comments. Chair Eckholm
closed the public hearing.
Commissioner Weber asked about the need to rezone from one PUD to another, adding
he invited staff to be creative with the code rather than going back and forth between
PUDs. Ms. Monson stated staff contemplated how to best move forward for this site for
several years, but it is a very complicated PUD with the multiple sites, so staff decided to
bring this to the commission to make steps easier.
Mr. Walther added staff is working on a better long-term solution going forward with a
new transit-oriented development zoning district, but reiterated the complexities for
this site and that this action was taken to streamline and clean up the process before
moving forward with a new development proposal for the site.

Executive summary
Title: Costco parking lot expansion - Park Place Plaza
Recommended action: Motion to adopt Resolutions approving a preliminary and final plat of Park
Place Plaza third addition and a planned unit development major amendment for expanded parking.
Policy consideration: Does the proposed plat and parking lot expansion meet city requirements?
Summary: Costco proposes to add 82 parking spaces by altering the site plan in five ways:
1.Replace an open pond with an underground stormwater storage and treatment facility that
meets current requirements.
2.Construct 125 new parking spaces above the new underground stormwater facilities.
3.Construct 44 new parking spaces on the west side of the building along the service drive.
4.Split Lot 8 into two parts. The easterly portion would be combined with the Lakeshore
Learning parcel for the purpose of constructing a new retail building. The new retail building
is not part of this application. It will be requested by the owner of that property. The
westerly portion of Lot 8 would be combined with Costco’s property and utilized for
employee parking.
5.Provide six electric vehicle charging stations.
6.Change the parking lot entrance to improve traffic flow within the PUD.
To facilitate the proposed parking lot expansion, the applicant submitted two applications.
1.Preliminary and final plat of Park Place Plaza Third Addition to combine properties and
relocate property lines.
2.Major amendment to the planned unit development to modify the site plan by replacing a
pond with underground stormwater treatment, alter the property lines within the PUD,
and construct new parking spaces.
The planning commission conducted a public hearing on May 5, 2021. One comment was
received about noise currently occurring at the Costco loading docks. It did not pertain directly to
the application, and staff followed up with Costco to address the noise. The planning commission
recommended the council approve the applications.

Title: Costco parking lot expansion - Park Place Plaza
Background: Costco was constructed in 2000 and since then several modifications to its building
and parking lot were made to improve circulation, increase parking and expand its liquor store.
Applications for a preliminary plat and major amendment to the PUD were submitted to the city
in February 2021. A neighborhood meeting was conducted on February 18, 2021. The planning
commission conducted a public hearing on March 3, 2021. The planning commission
recommended approval to the council with the request that the council review the Gamble Drive
traffic concerns noted by some commissioners. Public input received at the neighborhood
meeting and public hearings are described in the zoning analysis section of the report.
The applicant withdrew the applications before they were heard by the council because the plat
was amended to include the Home Depot property. Adding the additional property to the plat
could not be completed without conducting a second public hearing at the planning commission.
The applicant decided to withdraw the applications and submit new applications to amend the
PUD and plat. This also provided an opportunity to present proposed traffic improvements to
planning commission.
The current application includes the Home Depot property and includes changes to the parking
lot entrance to improve traffic flow as requested by the planning commission. No changes were
made to the parking proposed on the west side of the Costco building.
Proposed project: Costco proposes to add 82 parking spaces by altering the site plan in five ways:
1. Replace the open pond with underground stormwater storage and treatment facilities and
construct 125 new parking spaces above the new underground stormwater facilities.
2. Construct 44 new parking spaces on the west side of the building along the service drive.
3. Split Lot 8 into two parts. The easterly portion would be combined with the Lakeshore
Learning parcel for the purpose of constructing a new retail building. The new retail building
is not part of this application. It will be requested by the owner of that property. The westerly
portion of Lot 8 would be combined with the Costco property to be utilized for employee
parking.
4. Provide six electric vehicle charging stations, in compliance with city code.
5. Change Costco’s main parking lot entrance to improve circulation, as described below.
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 8a) Page 4
Title: Costco parking lot expansion - Park Place Plaza
Zoning analysis: Below is an analysis of the proposed applications. The improvements are broken
down into five areas that are described below the image.
Area 1: This area is currently a service drive used by delivery trucks for Costco and Home Depot.
The proposal is to add 44 parking spaces to be used by employees. The parking spaces would
extend west of the service drive into the existing berm. The effectiveness of the berm, however,
would not be lost as the cut into the berm would extend halfway into the berm. The result is a
retaining wall up to three feet tall that will block the headlights of the cars parked in the spaces.
Existing and proposed landscaping will complete the screening.
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 8a) Page 5
Title: Costco parking lot expansion - Park Place Plaza
The parking spaces will also require the removal of 13 trees. These trees will be replaced by a
mixture of 20 conifers and overstory trees. The new trees will be placed in areas to provide the
most effective screening for the residential properties across the street. An exhibit showing the
location of the removed and proposed trees is attached.
Area 2: This second area is an outlot that contains one of the three stormwater ponds for the
development. Outlots are unbuildable parcels of land that must be platted into lots and blocks.
The preliminary plat proposes to combine the outlot with the Costco parcel to facilitate the
expansion of the parking lot. The stormwater treatment and containment requirements provided
by the open pond will be replaced in the same area with an underground facility which will be
expanded to meet current stormwater treatment and storage requirements.
The existing sidewalk that extends from Cedar Lake Road to the parking lot will be reconstructed
in approximately the same location. Landscaping and slight berms will be added to either side of
the sidewalk.
The plat proposes to convey a 22-foot wide strip of land and the existing patio to Home Depot.
The strip of land will be used to construct a ten-foot wide sidewalk along the northern edge of
the Home Depot outdoor nursery. The existing patio will continue to be used as a patio.
Area 3: Six electrical vehicle charging stations will be added. Improvements will be made to the
accessible parking spaces.
Area 4: Proposed changes to Costco’s main parking lot entrance to improve circulation, as
described below.
• Extend the entrance in the parking lot from 90 feet to approximately 190 feet. The longer
lanes create additional space for vehicles to drive into the parking lot and change lanes
as needed while minimizing the impact to the parking lot entrance intersection.
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 8a) Page 6
Title: Costco parking lot expansion - Park Place Plaza
• Extend the Gamble Drive southbound right turn lane into the Costco parking lot. This will
add additional space for vehicles to cue at the Costco parking lot entrance intersection.
• Install a sidewalk along the south side of the Costco parking lot entrance. This sidewalk
will provide a separate pedestrian access that extends approximately halfway into the
parking lot.
The proposed changes were reviewed by the city engineering department and an independent
traffic and parking consultant. It is anticipated that the improvements will make traffic circulate
more smoothly by creating more space in the Costco parking lot for vehicles to make decisions
and maneuver and reduce conflicts vehicles near the new internal intersection. It will also slightly
reduced delays and congestion at the Gamble Drive and Costco parking lot driveway intersection.
The parking lot located southeast of 16th Street West and Gamble Drive is owned by Costco and is
utilized for overflow and employee parking. The preliminary plat proposes to split this lot into
two parcels. The easterly parcel will be sold and combined with the lot to the east to facilitate a
future improvement. The westerly parcel will continue to be owned by Costco and will be
Proposed Conditions
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 8a) Page 7
Title: Costco parking lot expansion - Park Place Plaza
combined with the Costco property. The Costco portion of this lot will continue to be utilized for
overflow and employee parking.
An application for the development of the easterly parcel has been submitted to the city and will
be considered at the same planning commission and city council meetings as the Costco
applications. The intent is to view both improvements at the same time as the design of this
parking lot impacts both Costco and the proposed Park Place Plaza retail building. As shown
below, the parking lot design proposes to close the parking lot access closest to the intersection
of the Costco parking lot and the private road. This closure is intended to improve traffic flow and
safety at the intersection and into the new retail building’s parking lot.
Parking: Costco currently has 618 parking spaces. City code requires a minimum of 600 parking
spaces and allows for a maximum of 1,000 parking spaces. The proposal is to add an additional 82
parking spaces, which will bring the total up to 700 parking spaces.
Electric vehicle charging stations: City code also requires one percent of the required parking
spaces to be equipped with level 2 electric vehicle charging stations. Costco proposes three dual
charging stations that can service six parking spaces, including two handicapped accessible
spaces. City code also requires that electrical capacity be provided to accommodate future level 2
charging stations for ten percent of the required parking. Costco identified locations in the
parking lot for these future stations.
Bicycle parking: City code requires bike racks at a rate of one bike rack per ten required parking
spaces. Costco’s minimum required parking is 600 parking spaces, which equates to 60 bike
parking spaces. Costco currently has 18 spaces but allows employees to park their bikes inside
the building in the receiving area. Given the nature of the warehouse style retail shopping, it is
rare that customers would ride their bikes to Costco. Therefore, Costco proposes to continue
with the current 18 parking spaces located in front of the store and continue to allow employees
to park their bikes inside the building. Additional racks will be added as needed to the front of the
store. The code allows proof-of-parking. This accommodation is acceptable to staff. A condition
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 8a) Page 8
Title: Costco parking lot expansion - Park Place Plaza
of approval requiring additional racks as a need is demonstrated is included in the staff
recommendations.
Landscaping: There are currently 176 trees of various sizes and varieties on the Costco site. The
parking lot expansion requires the removal of 18 trees.
The city requires trees to be replaced according to a formula that account for the size and species
of the trees removed and the trees remaining on the property. The formula for this project
results in no additional trees being required to be planted to replace those removed. This is not
unusual as the formula allows for a small number of trees to be removed on sites with many
trees. Nevertheless, Costco proposes to plant 57 trees. 20 of these trees will be planted on the
west side of the building to supplement the screening of the new parking spaces and replace the
13 trees removed. The remaining trees will be planted in the new parking lot in area 2. These
trees will be in the parking lot islands and along the new sidewalk to be constructed between
Costco and Home Depot.
Sidewalks: There are sidewalks along all adjacent streets and within the development. The
sidewalk located between Costco and Home Depot, which extends from Cedar Lake Road into the
development, will be replaced in the same location.
Preliminary/final plat: The improvements outlined above require the rearrangement of property
lines and combination of lots. Therefore, the preliminary plat proposes the following:
1. Eliminate Outlot C, which is improved with the pond. Outlot C would be combined with the
Costco property to facilitate the parking lot expansion.
2. Eliminate Lot 8, which is an overflow parking lot for Costco. Lot 8 would be split in half with
the west half being combined with the Costco property and the east half being combined with
Lot 7, which is improved with a small retail building. Combining the east half with Lot 7 is
required to facilitate the proposed new retail building and parking.
3. Convey approximately 7,923 square feet of land to the Home Depot property.
Neighborhood meeting: Below is a summary of the neighborhood meeting conducted on
February 18, 2021.
While questions were asked, it didn’t appear that anybody objected to the project. Comments
and questions were received from neighbors pertaining to the following:
1. Questions were asked about why the stormwater was being moved underground instead of
combined with the existing large pond in the middle of the development. The project
engineer explained the regulations pertaining to stormwater control and treatment and
responded that combining the two ponds is not feasible and underground storage and
treatment is the best option.
2. Questions were asked about the proposed parking on the west side of Costco and how they
proposed to mitigate the lost screening provided by the berm and trees. Costco responded
with slides showing the existing and proposed screening. They also showed how the berm and
proposed retaining wall will continue to block the headlights from cars parking in these
spaces.
3. A question was asked about noise generated from trucks driving on the service drive behind
Costco. The noise and vibration caused from trucks hitting the speed bumps disturbs the
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 8a) Page 9
Title: Costco parking lot expansion - Park Place Plaza
neighborhood. Costco responded that they would look into the speed bumps and how that
can be remedied.
4. Costco responded to a question about employee parking behind Costco and how that will
work when the drive aisle is closed to trucks with a gate. Costco explained that there are two
other areas where employees can park when the gates are closed. Employees will be parking
in the new spaces behind Costco when the gates are open.

Meeting: City council
Meeting date: June 7, 2021
Action agenda item: 8b
Executive summary
Title: Park Place Plaza planned unit development major amendment
Recommended action: Motion to adopt Resolution approving the major amendment to the
planned unit development (PUD) to construct a 7,000-square-foot retail building.
Policy consideration: Does the proposed PUD amendment meet city requirements?
Summary: Bianco Properties, representing PK Investment Associates, LLC, (the applicant)
requests a major amendment to the Park Place Plaza PUD to construct a 7,000-square-foot retail
building at 5799 16th St W, which is currently being utilized as over-flow parking for Costco.
The shopping center that includes Costco, Home Depot and several smaller retail buildings are
owned by four different entities. Costco proposes to swap some of their land with the applicant.
The applicant proposes to construct a new 7,000-square-foot retail building west of the
Lakeshore Learning/Five Guys building. The applicant’s proposed new retail building would be
constructed on Lot 2, Block 1, Park Place Plaza Third Addition plat proposed by Costco
Corporation. Therefore, the applicant’s proposal is contingent on city approvals of Costco’s
related plat of Park Place Plaza Third Addition.
This application to amend the Park Place Plaza PUD will result in two retail buildings on one lot
which is allowed by PUD. The proposed 7,000-square-foot building and the existing 7,000-square-
foot building (Lakeshore Learning/Five Guys) will both be located on Lot 2, Block 1, Park Place
Plaza Third Addition.
The planning commission conducted a public hearing on May 5, 2021. No comments were
received, and they recommended the council approve the application.
Financial or budget considerations: None.
Strategic priority consideration: Not applicable.

City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 8b) Page 3
Title: Park Place Plaza planned unit development major amendment
Background: An application for a major amendment to the PUD was submitted to the city in
February 2021. A neighborhood meeting was conducted on February 18, 2021. The planning
commission conducted a public hearing on March 3, 2021. The planning commission
recommended approval to the council with the request that the council review the Gamble Drive
traffic circulation concerns noted by the commissioners. Public input received at the
neighborhood meeting and public hearings are described in the zoning analysis section of the
report.
The applicant withdrew the application before it was heard by the council because the applicants
for the Costco project withdrew their applications with the intent to make revisions and
resubmit. The applicant’s proposal is subject to the Costco improvements; therefore, they
needed to be heard by the planning commission and council concurrently.
The traffic improvements proposed by Costco do not directly impact the Park Place Plaza plan.
The Park Place Plaza improvements are unchanged from what was presented to the
neighborhood in February and the planning commission in March.
The Park Place Plaza PUD was approved in 1996. The subject property is part of the Park Place
Plaza PUD and was improved with a 7,000-square-foot retail building and 52 parking spaces. The
building is currently occupied with Lakeshore Learning Center and Five Guys.
Proposed project: PK Investment Associates propose to construct a second 7,000-square-foot
retail building to the west of the existing building of the same size and reconstruct the existing
parking lot. To do so, the subject property will be combined with the easterly half of the adjacent
Lot 8 of Park Place Plaza as part of the Park Place Plaza Third Addition which was submitted to the
city by Costco Warehouse Corporation under a separate application. The proposed new building,
reconstructed parking lot and reconfigured property is illustrated below.
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 8b) Page 4
Title: Park Place Plaza planned unit development major amendment
Zoning analysis: Below is an analysis of the proposed application.
Principal buildings: As shown on the illustration above, the proposal will result in two principal
buildings on one parcel, which is allowed in a PUD.
Parking: The plan would increase the number of parking spaces on the new lot from 52 spaces to
99 parking spaces. The proposed 99 parking spaces do not include the 13 parking spaces located
west of the subject lot’s westerly property line. Those 13 parking spaces are located on the
Costco property and are intended to be overflow parking and employee parking for Costco.
The existing building is occupied with retail and a restaurant. Those two existing uses require 52
parking spaces after applying the 10% transit reduction. The proposed building requires at least
25 parking spaces. Combined, the two buildings require a minimum of 77 parking spaces to meet
code. As noted above, there are 99 parking spaces proposed, which gives the property owner
enough parking capacity to potentially accommodate a small restaurant or coffee shop.
Electric vehicle charging stations: City code also requires 1% of the required parking spaces to be
equipped with level 2 electric vehicle charging stations. An electrical charging station is proposed
on front of the new building, and will service two parking spaces, one of which will be an accessible
parking space. Future charging stations could be installed along the south side of the building.
Bicycle parking: City code requires bike racks at a rate of 1 bike space per 10 required parking
spaces. The applicant proposes to install ten bike parking spaces along the south side of the
building. This meets code.
Landscaping: There are 13 significant trees on the site. The proposal requires removing 10 of
them. As a result, the applicant is required to plant 57 caliper inches of trees. The applicant
proposes to plant 48 caliper inches and contribute $1,260 to the tree fund for the remaining
caliper inches per code.
The applicant proposes to plant 18 trees in the parking lot islands and around the perimeter of
the parking lot. Three conifers are proposed behind the new building to screen the backside of
the building. The landscaping plan is attached for your reference.
Sidewalks: There are sidewalks along all adjacent streets and within the development. A sidewalk
connection will be reconstructed in the northwest corner of the proposed parking lot. This
sidewalk will connect the public sidewalk along 16th Street to the development. A new sidewalk
connection will also be installed in the southwest corner of the parking lot to connect the Costco
overflow and employee parking spaces to the interior private sidewalks to provide a pedestrian
sidewalk connection from the parking spaces to the Costco store.
Building elevations: The proposed building exceeds the minimum class 1 materials on the north,
west and south elevations. The applicant proposes over 70% class 1 materials on each of these
elevations, city code requires at least 60%. The applicant proposes 40% class 1 materials on the
east side because the new building would be 12 feet from the existing building. As a result, most
of the east wall of the new building will not be visible from off-site. The portion that is visible will
be approximately 75% class 1, which is consistent with the other building elevations.
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 8b) Page 5
Title: Park Place Plaza planned unit development major amendment
Parking lot access: The parking lot entrance closest to the intersection of the private road and the
Costco parking lot would be closed as illustrated below. This closure will allow for improved
stacking space at the stop sign and eliminate turning movements near the intersection. Access
easements are in place to allow Costco access to its parking spaces located on the west side of
the parking lot.
Neighborhood meeting: A neighborhood meeting was conducted on February 18, 2021. The
application is unchanged from what was presented to the neighborhood in February.
The February meeting was held in conjunction with the Costco neighborhood meeting. Most
questions were asked about the Costco site. A person expressed concern about traffic on the
private road between 16th Street West and the Costco intersection and thought the one driveway
closure to the parking lot was insufficient and the entrance to the new parking lot should be
farther east.
Staff discussed the proposed development with the applicant in its earlier planning stages and
the city engineering department suggested the proposed closure. Staff believes that the spacing
is sufficient given the lower traffic volumes on the east leg of this intersection.

City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 8b)

Meeting: City council
Meeting date: June 7, 2021
Action agenda item: 8c
Executive summary
Title: Text amendment to section 36-268-PUD 9 and rezoning of 5950 36th St. W.
Recommended action:
• Motion to approve first reading of an Ordinance amending Section 36-268-PUD 9 of the
zoning code relating to previous development approvals at 5950 36th St. W. and to set
the second reading for June 21, 2021.
• Motion to approve first reading of an Ordinance rezoning 5950 36th St. W. to MX-1
vertical mixed use and to set the second reading for June 21, 2021.
Policy consideration: Does the city council support cleaning up the zoning ordinance to reset
the baseline regulations for a new development proposal at 5950 36th St. W.?
Summary: The City of St. Louis Park Economic Development Authority (EDA) owns the site at
5950 36th St. W. In 2016, the EDA entered into a preliminary redevelopment contract for the
site with PLACE E-Generation One as part of a larger development proposal that also included
two additional sites north of the future light rail line. On May 1, 2017, 5950 36th St. W. was
rezoned to a planned unit development (PUD) to allow a 110-room hotel and an 84-unit mixed-
use building. After numerous delays and an inability by the developer to secure financing for
the project, the EDA decided to not renew the preliminary redevelopment contract for this site
in 2019.
In 2021, the EDA entered into a new preliminary redevelopment contract for the site with
Anderson Companies and Saturday Properties. This development group will be seeking zoning
entitlements for the site in late 2021.
To prepare the site for a new development proposal, the City of St. Louis Park would like to
amend the approved PUD 9 so it regulates only the two sites currently owned by PLACE E-
Generation One. The city would also like to rezone 5950 36th St. W. to MX-1 vertical mixed use
until Anderson Companies and Saturday Properties advance their development proposal.
Financial or budget considerations: None at this time.
Strategic priority consideration: Not applicable.

Title: Text amendment to section 36-268-PUD 9 and rezoning of 5950 36th St. W.
Discussion
Background: The City of St. Louis Park Economic Development Authority (EDA) owns the site at
5950 36th St. W. In 2016, the EDA entered into a preliminary redevelopment contract for the
site with PLACE E-Generation One as part of a larger development proposal that also included
two additional sites north of the future light rail line. On May 1, 2017, 5950 36th St. W. was
rezoned to a planned unit development (PUD) to allow a 110-room hotel and an 84-unit mixed-
use building. After numerous delays and an inability by the developer to secure financing for

in 2019.
In 2021, the EDA entered into a new preliminary redevelopment contract for the site with

To prepare the site for a new development proposal, the City of St. Louis Park would like to
amend the approved PUD 9 so it regulates only the two sites owned by PLACE E-Generation

Proposed 2040 land use guidance Proposed zoning

Present considerations: The EDA would like to amend section 36-268-PUD 9 of the city’s zoning
ordinance to remove all language pertaining to 5950 36th St. W. The city would then like to
rezone the site to MX-1 vertical mixed use.
Zoning text amendment analysis: 5950 36th St. W., 5909 Highway 7, and 5855 Highway 7 are
all regulated by section 36-268-PUD 9 of the city’s zoning ordinance. PUD 9 established four
zones of development, Site A – E-Gen, which allows a anerobic digester and a greenhouse, Site
B – North, which allows 217 unit multi-family building (now known as Via Sol), Site C – Hotel,
which allows a 110-room hotel, and Site D – South, which allows for an 84 unit mixed-use
building.
PUD 9 also establishes the zoning requirements for the site and requires any development to
follow the exact site plan and official exhibits that were originally approved by the city council.
Since the EDA is no longer working with PLACE E-Generation One for the construction of this
site, they would like to allow a new development proposal to come forward. In order to
facilitate this process, the city would like to remove all language in PUD 9 referencing
development on 5950 36th St. W. The proposed text amendment accomplishes this goal. Staff
also recommend the greenhouse become a permitted use rather than an accessory use on Site
A – E-Gen.
Zoning map amendment analysis: Staff recommends rezoning 5950 36th St. W. to MX-1
vertical mixed use to keep zoning regulations in effect at the site once all the PUD 9 language is
removed. The site is guided as TOD transit-oriented development in the 2040 comprehensive
plan. Rezoning the site to MX-1 would follow the vision and goals of the 2040 comprehensive
plan as well as other planning studies for the area, including the Elmwood Area Land Use and
Transportation Study from 2003. Additionally, most adjacent properties along 36th Street West
were rezoned to MX-1 in 2019.
Planning commission: The planning commission held a virtual public hearing on May 5, 2021.
No comments were made by the public. The commission voiced support for a transit-oriented
development district in this area to reduce the number of planned unit developments and
rezoning near light rail. The commission voted 6 to 0 to recommend approval of the
amendment to PUD 9 and to rezone the property to MX-1 vertical mixed use.

Title: Text amendment to section 36-268-PUD 9 and rezoning of 5950 36th St. W.
Next steps: The city anticipates applications from Anderson Companies and Saturday Properties
to rezone the site to a new PUD in the later half of 2021. There will be several neighborhood
meetings and expect another public hearing during that process.
Recommendations: Staff recommends amending section 36-268-PUD 9 of the St. Louis Park
zoning code and recommends rezoning 5950 36th St. W. to MX-1 vertical mixed use.

Ms. Monson presented the report.
Commissioner Kraft asked about the rezoning and if the new developers want a PUD
back on that site, so as not to rezone twice. Ms. Monson stated the developers will ask
for a PUD on the property, to take full advantage of the transit-oriented development
land use on the site.
Chair Eckholm opened the public hearing. There were no comments. Chair Eckholm
closed the public hearing.
Commissioner Weber asked about the need to rezone from one PUD to another, adding
he invited staff to be creative with the code rather than going back and forth between
PUDs. Ms. Monson stated staff contemplated how to best move forward for this site for
several years, but it is a very complicated PUD with the multiple sites, so staff decided to
bring this to the commission to make steps easier.
Mr. Walther added staff is working on a better long-term solution going forward with a
new transit-oriented development zoning district, but reiterated the complexities for
this site and that this action was taken to streamline and clean up the process before
moving forward with a new development proposal for the site.

Executive summary
Title: First reading of ordinance regarding speed limits
Recommended action: Motion to approve first reading of Ordinance regarding speed limits and
set second reading for June 21, 2021.
Policy consideration: Does the council wish to implement speed limit changes on city streets as
allowed by state statute and based on a safety, engineering, and traffic considerations?
Summary: In May 2019, provisions passed by the Minnesota legislature gave cities increased
authority to set speed limits. Over four study sessions (Mar. 2020, Aug. 2020, Jan. 2021, and
May 2021), the council and staff discussed the scope, findings, and impacts of changing speed
limits citywide.
The proposed ordinance clarifies that the city will be using the new Minnesota Statute to
establish speed limits. The city engineer (engineering director) may establish speed limits based
on an evaluation considering the factors specified in the statute. The ordinance and statute can
only be used on roads under the city’s jurisdiction. The city does not have authority to change
speed limits on county, state, or private roads.
Lower vehicle speeds during a crash are less likely to lead to death or life-changing injuries. This
is especially true for people walking and biking. Reducing speed limits on many St. Louis Park
streets is an important tool in the city’s toolbox to create a safer transportation system.
If adopted, implementation of new speed limits is expected by the end of 2021.
Implementation includes speed limit signage and traffic signal retiming. Throughout the
summer and fall, staff will educate community members through print and virtual media as well
as through community and agency partners.
Financial or budget considerations: Financial impacts relating to changing speed limits are
currently estimated at $200,000. Costs include new signs, signal timing, and public outreach.
The funding source is general obligation (GO) bonds.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing a variety of options for
people to make their way around the city comfortably, safely and reliably.

Title: First reading of ordinance regarding speed limits
Discussion
Background: In May 2019, the Minnesota legislature passed a provision that gave cities
increased authority to set speed limits. It went into effect on Aug. 1, 2019. The full language of
the provision is provided below:
Minnesota Statues, Section 169.14, Subd. 5h. Speed limits on city streets. A city may
establish speed limits for city streets under the city's jurisdiction other than the limits
provided in subdivision 2 without conducting an engineering and traffic investigation.
This subdivision does not apply to town roads, county highways, or trunk highways in
the city. A city that establishes speed limits pursuant to this section must implement
speed limit changes in a consistent and understandable manner. The city must erect
appropriate signs to display the speed limit. A city that uses the authority under this
subdivision must develop procedures to set speed limits based on the city's safety,
engineering, and traffic analysis. At a minimum, the safety, engineering, and traffic
analysis must consider national urban speed limit guidance and studies, local traffic
crashes, and methods to effectively communicate the change to the public.
Proposed ordinance: The proposed ordinance clarifies that the city will be using the new
Minnesota Statute to establish speed limits. The city engineer (engineering director) may
establish speed limits based on an evaluation taking into account the factors in the statute
above. The ordinance and statute can only be used on roads under the city’s jurisdiction. The
city does not have authority to change speed limits on county, state, or private roads.
Purpose: Lower vehicle speeds during a crash are less likely to lead to death or life-changing
injuries. This is especially true for people walking and biking. Reducing speed limits on many St.
Louis Park streets is an important tool in the city’s toolbox to create a safer transportation
system.
Speed limit setting goals: The following goals, to help frame setting speed limits citywide, are
based on existing city policies and the new Minnesota speed limit statutes:
• To support the city’s goal to eliminate fatalities and serious injuries that are a result of
crashes on city streets.
• To reflect the city’s goal in creating a mobility system that prioritizes walking first, then
bicycling and transit, and then motor vehicle use.
• To ensure the quality and function of the transportation system contributes to equitable
outcomes for all people.
• To support the movement of people and goods.
• To be understandable, consistent, replicable, reasonable, and contextually appropriate
in setting speed limits.
• To clearly communicate and educate the new speed limits and their connection to
safety, especially as people enter the city.
Speed limit evaluation: The council was presented a full draft of the speed limit evaluation at
the Jan. 25 study session (attached). The document outlines city policies, national guidance,
safety research, a crash analysis, traffic evaluation, race equity and inclusion considerations,
City council meeting of June 7, 2021 (Item No. 8d) Page 3
Title: First reading of ordinance regarding speed limits
environmental considerations, conclusions, recommendations, and next steps. Updated existing
and proposed speed limit maps are attached.
If the ordinance is adopted, the document will be updated for legibility and accessibility. As
stated in the proposed ordinance, the evaluation will be kept on file in the engineering
department and posted on the website.
Implementation: If adopted, implementation of new speed limits is expected by the end of
2021. Implementation includes speed limit signage and traffic signal retiming. Throughout the
summer and fall, staff will educate community members through print and virtual media as well
as through community and agency partners.
Evaluation: If adopted, the engineering department will complete and present an initial
evaluation of speed limit changes to the city council within three years of implementation. The
evaluation is expected to include:
•Results from traffic speed study comparing data collected before and during the
evaluation period.
•A comparison of crashes on city streets with two years of data before and after the
speed limit change.
•The police and engineering departments will monitor traffic conditions throughout and
after implementation to inform the evaluation.
•Any future recommendations around speed limits, supporting safe traffic speeds, or
additional evaluation.
Any new speed limit national guidance, research, or findings from peer cities will also be
considered.
Utica Avenue south of Westside Dr
During the May 24 study session, the council expressed concerns regarding the speed data
provided for this section of roadway. To address these concerns, staff will be taking the
following actions for this segment of road:
Short term (2021): The police department will add this segment of road to their speed board
rotation to help educate drivers on the posted speed. In addition, they will conduct directed
patrol.
Long term (2022-2023): Staff will review the existing conditions and determine if there are any
interim traffic management measures that could be implemented that would influence driver
speed.
