Ms. Schmitt presented the staff report. She noted the full amount recommended is
$1,517,799, which is 0.0185 of the estimated market value allowable for HRA Levy
purposes.
It was moved by Commissioner Spano, seconded by Commissioner Harris, to waive the
reading and adopt EDA Resolution No. 21-23, authorizing the 2022 Preliminary HRA
Levy.
The motion passed 7-0.
7b. 2022 preliminary EDA levy certification
Ms. Schmitt presented the staff report. She noted this is a new request, to go to the
redevelopment fund.
Commissioner Kraft stated he has concerns on transparency and clarity. He is concerned
about a perception of hiding the true number of the levy increase. He added the
discussion was about a 6.5% levy increase and no where was it discussed the overall
impact which would be 7.8-7.9% increase. He added he has concerns about clarity,
noting the uses would be for partial staff salaries and climate investment, but only
commercial uses.
Commissioner Kraft stated only a minority of residents will understand these issues,
adding these are complex issues. He does not understand how this creates a stable
funding source as an EDA levy. He stated the council sets each levy amount each year
and could eliminate a levy, if warranted. He asked what the difference between the
amounts having noted as an EDA levy versus as part of the general levy but pointed out
he does support the amounts of the levy. He noted, however, the way to address
transparency and clarity would be to enter these amounts into the general levy, making
it clear this is a 7.8-7.9% increase.
Commissioner Spano asked what is different about the HRA levy versus the EDA levy in
the issue of transparency. Commissioner Kraft stated the city could do a better job on
clarity and communicating the combined impact of those levies. He thought the impact
of levies should be better explained in materials that are sent out. He stated on
transparency, he would like to have the impact of the levies explained better.
Commissioner Harris asked about the taxable impact to residents on an EDA levy and
HRA levy, on top of the annual levy that is set. She stated she is not sure on the amount
of both levies and asked for an average amount per average home. Ms. Schmitt stated
the impact would be $4-5 per year per home for the HRA and $12-15 per year per home
for the EDA.
Economic development authority meeting of November 1, 2021 (Item No. 3a) Page 3
Title: EDA meeting minutes of Sept. 20, 2021
Commissioner Harris stated she sees these are tools used in the city’s levy toolbox, and
that the commissioners can help explain this information to residents. While she does
understand Commissioner Kraft’s comments, she supported a levy at 5% and lower.
However, she does support the EDA levy that helps with the city’s sustainability goals,
which can be used to fund the climate action plan for commercial and residential.
Commissioner Rog asked how the 7.8% figure was reached. Commissioner Kraft stated
he looked at the total dollars levied proposed this year and next year. Ms. Schmitt
stated staff is looking at 3 different levies, in 3 different buckets, which are not
combined.
Commissioner Kraft stated the impact to residents is the total amount they are being
taxed.
Commissioner Rog agreed with this 7.8% total tax figure and is uncomfortable adding a
new levy which could be supported within the general levy and be more transparent.
She stated franchise fees are a hidden tax as well. She noted no new levy should be
started this year, and while she supports the goals of the EDA levy, this levy should be
added into the general fund for transparency.
Commissioner Dumalag stated this is a messaging conversation about the EDA fund and
how funds are separate or combined. She stated with the separate levies, the council
can expressly state the priories for each year, so she is comfortable with the separate
levies, but agreed there should be better messaging around this.
President Brausen pointed out the table on page 3 of the packet shows clarity and
transparency on the 3 levies.
Commissioner Spano asked about the implications of moving the levies if there are legal
or staffing impacts. Ms. Schmitt stated this has been looked at and the idea of rolling
climate action into an EDA levy is more transparent. She stated the EDA levy is $500,000
and is not rolled into anything else, while being able to be called out easily. She
explained the climate action funding can be moved into the general fund, adding the
salaries would not be impacted initially. She noted if the preliminary EDA levy is not
passed, it will be off the table for the year, adding the commission can pass the
preliminary EDA levy and then not pass the final levy.
Commissioner Mohamed agreed with Commissioner Kraft’s comments on messaging.
She asked if Commissioner Kraft wants to pull the EDA levy off the table completely.
Commissioner Kraft stated he would like to have a new line item within the general levy
to include the climate action fund, for clarity purposes.
Commissioner Mohamed stated she is not comfortable putting the EDA levy aside at this
time. She understands the comments about messaging and transparency, but she is in
favor of the levy.
Economic development authority meeting of November 1, 2021 (Item No. 3a) Page 4
Title: EDA meeting minutes of Sept. 20, 2021
President Brausen stated he is supportive of the preliminary EDA levy and as the
discussions continue, the transparency and clarity will be evident for those who are
listening.
It was moved by Commissioner Harris, seconded by Commissioner Spano, to adopt the
2022 Preliminary EDA levy by the city council.
The motion passed 5-2 (Commissioners Kraft and Rog opposed).
7c. Establishment of the Beltline Residences Tax Increment Financing (TIF) District
EDA Resolution No. 21-24 and EDA Resolution No. 21-25
Mr. Hunt presented the staff report.
Commissioner Harris asked what constitutes the public redevelopment costs. Mr. Hunt
stated there are several costs specified under state statute for which TIF can reimburse
developers. In this instance, they refer to building demolition, soil remediation and
correction, and structured parking.
Commissioner Harris asked who determines what is an appropriate revenue projection.
Mr. Hunt stated staff works with Ehlers in analyzing development proformas to ensure
they meet the required “but-for” test.
Commissioner Rog stated, as noted in the past, she will be opposing the next two items.
She stated she is not completely opposed to TIF, as it can be a useful tool, but has
concerns that TIF is consuming an ever-larger portion of the tax base, benefiting
developers but potentially creating extra costs for the community.
Commissioner Rog stated TIF comes with the territory when dealing with development
and the council approves it every time. She stated all systems warrant scrutiny. She
stated Opus is the developer here and the affordable portion of the project comprises
about 2/3 of the total of the TIF request. She continued given that only 1 in 10 of the
apartments will be affordable, is this what the city wants, and is this the best bargain
the city can strike. She stated given these developers’ access to resources, from a
wealth disparities perspective, she questions if TIF is critical to this projects’ success and
whether the city needs to forego tax revenue for that many years to get 19 affordable
singles and 5 family units. She stated the city gets the money back eventually but loses
out as well and forgoes significant tax revenue of about $400,000 per year, as does the
county and school district. She stated these monies could be invested in climate
initiatives, lowering the levy, paying down debt, and partnering with non-profits to
create more affordability. She stated the city should be requiring more and be a leader
like the city is in other areas. She would like a deeper dive into TIF impacts and look at
other ways to achieve city goals.
Commissioner Dumalag stated she will support this TIF proposal and the “but-for” is
pretty unique, especially with the city’s history of being a dumping ground for others.
She stated the project is compliant with inclusionary housing policies for 25 years, green
Economic development authority meeting of November 1, 2021 (Item No. 3a) Page 5
Title: EDA meeting minutes of Sept. 20, 2021
policies, and while the city’s racial equity policies are still being created regarding TIF,
they are working with the city on that. She stated the community needs to know the city
is thinking broadly about housing.
Commissioner Kraft thanked Commissioner Rog for her comments, adding they should
continue to be discussed further. He added there is another development item on the
agenda tonight that is next door and similar with flood plain, and that one is complying
with green policies and not asking for TIF. He asked for staff perspective on this. Mr.
Hunt stated since the other project has not asked for TIF, staff has not seen their
financial information or pro forma. He stated they might have lower property
acquisition price, construction costs, operating costs, or different financing structure.
Commissioner Mohamed agreed with Commissioner Rog on her comments. She added
every time TIF comes up, there is minimal affordable housing. However, as hesitant as
she is to support this, one apartment is better than nothing to her and it will help at
least one family. She added though a lot of the TIF is for luxury apartments noting most
of the apartments she approves of, she cannot afford to live in. She stated we may need
to look at affordable housing differently than with TIF only.
Commissioner Spano stated if the EDA is uncomfortable with what developers propose,
then that is on the EDA. He stated the EDA sets those parameters and the developers
work with that. He agreed with Commissioner Mohamed’s comments. He stated he will
support this request and asked how many dollars the city has given out in TIF and how
much has the city gotten back over time. Mr. Hunt stated the city’s TIF district portfolio
shows over 1100% increase in market value.
Commissioner Spano stated he typically looks at TIF as an investment fund that the city
puts money into and that brings back a return, in order to fund more projects in the
future.
Commissioner Rog stated she is not criticizing staff or her colleagues or anyone’s
performances but she would like to find other times to discuss her concerns outside of
the approval process.
Commissioner Spano stated he would like to discuss this further, compare what other
cities are doing to pay for the cost of affordable housing, how they are using or not
using TIF, as well as look at additional financing options to facilitate these
developments.
President Brausen stated he will support this TIF request. He stated the development
will allow for workforce racial equity goals, create luxury and affordable units and
commercial property, and follow green policies. He stated he disagreed with the
characterization that the EDA always approves TIF requests. He said Ehlers carefully
reviews all TIF requests before they come to the EDA and staff only presents deals that
have been vetted and the EDA can support. He stated he will support this request.
Economic development authority meeting of November 1, 2021 (Item No. 3a) Page 6
Title: EDA meeting minutes of Sept. 20, 2021
Commissioner Kraft stated the key question for a study session will be if this is the most
cost-effective use of the city’s dollars. He stated he will support this.
It was moved by Commissioner Dumalag, seconded by Commissioner Harris, to waive the
reading and adopt EDA Resolution No. 21-24, approving the establishment of the
Beltline Residences Tax Increment Financing District (a redevelopment district); and to
waive the reading and adopt EDA Resolution No. 21-25, authorizing an interfund loan
for advance of certain costs in connection with the Beltline Residences TIF District.
The motion passed 6-1 (Commissioner Rog opposed).

Executive summary
Title: Installation of groundwater monitoring wells at 7015 Walker Street
Recommended action: Motion to adopt EDA Resolution approving the installation of
groundwater monitoring wells at 7015 Walker Street.
Policy consideration: Does the EDA approve of the installation of three groundwater monitoring
wells on its property located at 7015 Walker Street?
Summary: Environmental consulting firm GHD, has requested permission to access and install
three groundwater monitoring wells on the EDA’s vacant property located at 7015 Walker
Street on behalf of clients Daikin Applied Americas Inc. and Super Radiator Coils Limited
Partnership; successors to a former property owner of nearby 6714 Walker Street. The
monitoring work is being conducted with oversight of the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency
(MPCA) in association with the consulting firm’s current monitoring of 6714 Walker Street. The
monitoring wells are to assist in the characterization of the groundwater hydraulics and
groundwater chemistry in the area of 6714 Walker Street.
GHD will work cooperatively with the EDA and will share any data collected on the 7015 Walker
property. Drilling activities will be conducted by a licensed Minnesota well driller. The wells will
be installed in accordance with the Minnesota Department of Health Well code. The well
owners will be responsible for the maintenance of the proposed wells. If, at any time, the EDA
wishes to terminate the Access agreement and have the wells removed, it may request the
abandonment and removal of the wells with 30 days’ notice. The wells would then be removed
by GHD at its client’s expense.
Financial or budget considerations: The proposed well installation, monitoring, maintenance,
and eventual removal is to be performed at no expense to the EDA.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to continue to lead in
environmental stewardship.

6714 Walker Street. The monitoring wells are to assist in the characterization of the
groundwater hydraulics and groundwater chemistry in the area of 6714 Walker Street.
Proposed location of groundwater monitoring wells on 7015 Walker Street
Present considerations: GHD and its clients will work cooperatively with the EDA and will share
any data collected on the 7015 Walker property. Drilling activities will be conducted by a
licensed Minnesota well driller. The wells will be installed, maintained, and removed in
accordance with the Minnesota Department of Health Well code.
Agreement terms: Key terms of the agreement are as follows:
•The EDA grants Daikin Applied Americas Inc. and Super Radiator Coils Limited Partnership
(the “Grantees”) access to the Subject Property to (a) install three Monitoring Wells in the
locations depicted in the photo above, in accordance with the Minnesota Department of
Health’s code and requirements; (b) perform groundwater monitoring activities with
oversight of the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (“MPCA”); and (c) maintain the
Monitoring Wells (the “Permitted Activities”).

1. Charter commission update and future considerations
Commissioner Beckstrand provided an overview of the duties and responsibilities of the charter
commission and updated the council on the commission’s current work to review certain
sections of the charter related to interference with administration and conflicts of interest. He
explained the commission authorized the creation of a subcommittee to complete the review
and provide a recommendation to the commission on proposed changes. He stated the
commission’s obligations are to ensure good governance through transparency and
accountability to the public. He noted the commission should review the charter periodically
and suggest changes, as needed, with these tenets in mind.
Commissioner Brimeyer reviewed the work of the commission and subcommittee. He stated
the subcommittee and the commission have spent a lot of time discussing and debating the
best way to clarify certain sections of the charter to achieve the desired outcomes of greater
transparency and accountability in how alleged violations of the charter are handled and to
provide greater clarity to elected officials on what constitutes a conflict of interest and when it
should be disclosed.
Ms. Kennedy clarified that no specific amendments or language are being proposed at this
time. At the last meeting of the Charter Commission the group decided it would be a good idea
to get feedback from council on the main topics identified in the staff report to help provide a
framework for future discussions by the commission and determine next steps.
Councilmember Brausen asked how many members were on the charter commission, noting
that several members had left due to relocation. Ms. Kennedy stated the commission has 15-
members and confirmed there are several vacancies. She noted members of the Charter
Commission are appointed by the Chief Judge of the Hennepin County District Court.
City council meeting of November 1, 2021 (Item No. 3a) Page 2
Title: Study session minutes of Sept. 13, 2021
Councilmember Harris asked how the subcommittee members were recruited. Commissioner
Beckstrand stated the members were nominated by the commission.
Councilmember Harris asked how the goal of promoting a highly engaged citizenry and
community is connected to the review of the sections identified. Commissioner Beckstrand
stated you will find this when looking broadly at the goals and general practices of charter
commissions across the country.
Commissioner Kraft asked if the areas of concern identified in the report arose out of the
alleged violation by a former councilmember from last year or if there were some longstanding
concerns. Commissioner Brimeyer stated the Charter Commission was not interested in
discussing past allegation and was most concerned about the best way to handle things going
forward.
Commissioner Beckstrand added some of the concerns that came up reflected potential areas
of weakness or lack of clarity in the charter, but the alleged violation from last year was not the
sole driving factor behind initiative.
Commissioner Brimeyer stated overall the commission wants to ensure that the city’s elected
officials understand that they are accountable to the community and the perception of their
actions matters. He noted it is important to have oversight so the public can have the ability to
question if something isn’t right.
Mayor Spano stated he supports the concept of third-party investigations as it relates to alleged
violations of the charter, noting an extra set of eyes is not a bad thing. He explained his main
concern was the potential to weaponize the charter, particularly in instances where it could be
reactionary to an unpopular council decision. Commissioner Brimeyer stated the commission
wanted to avoid that situation as well. Mr. Beckstrand added if a matter came in front of the
charter commission for investigation, the item would still go back to council for review and
adjudication.
Councilmember Rog stated she is comfortable with voters being the outside body that
ultimately determines who is elected and represents the city. She is uncomfortable with the
idea or assumption that the city manager is not able to objectively handle alleged violations of
the charter and disagrees that it is a conflict of interest for the city manager or city attorney to
be involved in the process. Regarding specific conflicts of interest of council members, she
stated many elected officials have expertise in various areas that intersect with their work, it
does not mean that they personally benefit from that connection or have an inherent conflict.
She noted background can also help them to have interest in public service and make them a
better representative for the community and the initiatives they are most passionate about.
Councilmember Kraft stated he will respond to the discussion questions in the packet, adding
that the city manager and city attorney do not work for him personally or solely, and he does
not see an issue with conflict of interest from that perspective. Regarding the issue from 2020,
he did not see a problem with that process or how it was handled.
City council meeting of November 1, 2021 (Item No. 3a) Page 3
Title: Study session minutes of Sept. 13, 2021
Councilmember Kraft stated he supports updating the conflict-of-interest disclosure
requirements for public officials. He added he did not see an issue with conflict-of-interest
definitions and scope for public officials and is open to proposals from the commission. He
stated he is not in favor of third-party investigations. He does not see anything wrong with how
the investigation was handled last year and is not in favor of requiring a third-party
investigation. He would like to know specifically where there was not transparency in the
process or how the process did not work.
Councilmember Kraft stated he does not see an issue with the question of the city attorney
overseeing an investigation process for the city or with the council making the final
determination about one of their colleagues. He stated he does not take an oath to any of his
colleagues, a councilmember takes an oath to uphold the constitution. He stated he does not
see an issue with this item.
Councilmember Harris stated it would be beneficial to define what a conflict-of-interest is. She
added for the disclosure requirements of conflict-of-interest, the timing should be as soon as
possible. She asked for greater clarification on how a benefit is defined when determining if
there is a conflict-of-interest. She stated regarding intent of section 2.08, she is uncomfortable
with the charter commission having oversight of council but is comfortable with the charter
commission having oversight of governance in general. She stated she is not in favor of
automatic third-party investigations of alleged violations.
Councilmember Mohamed stated these are all valid points and transparency and accountability
are both very important for council, as well as disclosure of conflicts. She stated when the
council sets up mechanisms, the concern is what will this look like in the future, and the charter
will need to withstand the changes of time and not fall to human biases, especially if the
commission does not represent the community racially, economically, or socially. She stated we
need to make sure we ask who is in the room and who is making the decisions, and many times
it is not black or brown folks making those decisions.
Councilmember Dumalag stated disclosure of a conflict of interest should happen as soon as
possible and she is in full support of making that as clear as possible. Related to transparency
and accountability, she supports the concepts, but has concerns about who is on the charter
commission, how decisions are made, and has discomfort around this in general because she
would need more information to understand what the issue is that they are trying to address.
Councilmember Brausen stated he is always in favor of increased transparency, however; he is
not certain the current method addressing conflict-of-interest is adequate. He stated there is
no specific language in front of the council that they can react to, so he would like to see
options and what other cities are doing before he could discuss this further. He would also like
more discussion about councilmembers non-profit activity and conflict-of-interest before
making decisions.
Mayor Spano stated he has dealt with these issues over the past 10 years, especially
considering his regular job. He noted discussing conflicts-of-interest is very vague, adding he
agrees if there is a conflict, a councilmember does have an obligation to disclose early. He
noted the definitions and scope must be as clear as possible.
City council meeting of November 1, 2021 (Item No. 3a) Page 4
Title: Study session minutes of Sept. 13, 2021
Mayor Spano stated related to the first point about accountability, he does agree with having a
third-party entity do an investigation if needed and pointed out other areas where this is done
within the city, such as the third-party yearly audit report. He added, however, the third-party
entity should report to the city manager and city attorney and work with staff. Having the
charter commission oversee this is not correct as they are not elected officials and there could
be conflicts-of-interest within the charter commission as well.
Commissioner Beckstrand stated the commission looked at statute when discussing what a
conflict is, how it should be defined and how far down the chain of connection to an elected
official the definition should be applied.
Councilmember Kraft asked if Mayor Spano was saying that third-party investigations should be
a requirement. Mayor Spano stated no. Councilmember Kraft stated he would support a third-
party investigation if it was warranted.
Commissioners Beckstrand and Brimeyer thanked council for their time and feedback.
2. STEP update: current state of food access and insecurity
Mr. Reise presented the report, noting it will include trends on food insecurity and poverty,
especially during the pandemic. He stated trends before the pandemic show the poverty rate
has decreased since 2012 in St. Louis Park, but housing costs have increased and there are
many residents who can no longer afford to live here and have had to move out of the
community.
Mr. Reise stated STEP has pivoted toward housing during the pandemic, noting they served 1
out of 100 families in St. Louis Park with rent assistance. With this financial support for housing,
many families were limited out of poverty during the pandemic.
Mr. Reise stated because of the uncertainty of food insecurity, STEP is needed and this in part
has fostered STEP’s expansion at this time. He added this will help with a high standard food
program for the community, that can adapt with fluctuations on what is going on in the larger
world.
Councilmember Mohamed stated when her family first moved to the community, they relied on
STEP for food, clothing, and school supplies. She noted the impacts to families and women of
color and asked if STEP has a system in place when temporary help is done. Mr. Reise stated the
majority of households that STEP serves are female only led households. He stated STEP has
enough access to food and were able to get food in place when the pandemic hit.
Councilmember Mohamed asked if STEP has access to a healthy variety and nutritious food. Mr.
Reise stated yes, and they have worked to expand this by increased refrigeration capacity, using
local retail stores, and receiving not yet expired foods.
Councilmember Mohamed thanked STEP for the rental assistance, adding she has referred
many to them during the pandemic. She asked about evictions and noted at times the judicial
City council meeting of November 1, 2021 (Item No. 3a) Page 5
Title: Study session minutes of Sept. 13, 2021
discretion does not protect renters. Mr. Reise noted Minnesota is in a much stronger place than
other states related to evictions, so he has not seen any increase or decrease during the
pandemic related to evictions.
Councilmember Harris noted STEPs shifting emphasis during the pandemic with renter
assistance and asked if this program will end this fall. Mr. Reise stated he is not aware of this,
adding that many funds have not yet been distributed.
Councilmember Harris asked how many have asked for housing assistance and if the funds stop
down the road, what other type of assistance will be available through STEP. Mr. Reise stated
this is an unknown at this time. He stated they are getting inquiries from 3-4 families per
month, adding these federal funds are for pandemic related hardships only.
Councilmember Harris asked if there any gaps in what STEP is able to provide. Mr. Reise stated
the biggest gaps are related to specific emergencies related to housing and rent increases. He
added transportation is another issue that STEP is not able to help with and can only provide
temporary bus cards.
Councilmember Rog stated she works for a non-profit that provides food and had noted food
needs decline here as well. She noted undocumented families are not eligible for benefits and
asked if Mr. Reise is seeing any issues related to this. Mr. Reise stated they do not ask for
documentation, but noted these families are still receiving STEP services, and in deeper ways
than others.
Councilmember Rog asked how the council can be responsive and supportive here. Mr. Reise
stated the city’s funding of the STEP housing program has helped in the past. He noted the
federal government did loosen the requirements here for undocumented families, so STEP has
been able to serve those families. He noted when there is great federal support for pandemic
issues, there is an equity concern due to lack of funds.
Councilmember Rog asked if MNSURE navigators are at STEP to help families get health
insurance. Mr. Reise stated no, adding they do not have the capacity to do the training for this.
He stated however they do point families to the insurance program and stated they have not
seen a huge demand for this type of assistance at STEP.
Councilmember Rog noted in the past, STEP has discussed the idea of having a multi-service
center to be in partnership with the schools and city and asked if this is still being looked at. Mr.
Reise stated STEP has pivoted from that approach and currently looking to expand providing
the resources they do provide, by themselves. He added community partnerships are very
valuable with the city and schools, but there are ways to do this without the physical
requirements of a multi-service center.
Councilmember Rog asked how much the city currently allocates to STEP annually. Mr. Reise
stated STEP receives funds from the city in 3 ways: an annual amount of support at $47,000; a
specific amount for family housing security at $65,000; and indirect funding with the housing
authority. He added they also received federal funding through the housing authority.
City council meeting of November 1, 2021 (Item No. 3a) Page 6
Title: Study session minutes of Sept. 13, 2021
Councilmember Rog stated there are other federal funds available now and she wondered if
STEP is looking at leveraging these funds for equipment or other items. Mr. Reise stated most
of the federal funds available are for programs, and ARPA funds can be used for some capital
improvements such as HVAC.
Councilmember Rog asked how the city can engage in discovery with STEP, such as childcare,
transportation and jobs, and if this is an appropriate relationship for the city and STEP to
engage in. Mr. Reise stated STEP is very willing to partner with the city on these initiatives.
Councilmember Rog stated the more data they have and awareness, the more help can be
provided, and encouraged the conversations to be ongoing.
Councilmember Kraft asked what STEPs biggest areas of concerns or risk are at this time. Mr.
Reise stated that is housing and helping to make the city a place that can continue to provide
housing for all. He added this a short- and long-term concern that continues to happen.
Councilmember Kraft asked what the biggest areas of food insecurity in St. Louis Park are. Mr.
Reise stated his concerns are that STEP is the largest entity doing this work in the city and he
wants to be sure STEP continues to be accessible, adding there is always room for
improvement.
Councilmember Dumalag asked if there is any racial or age demographic information that can
be shared. Mr. Reise stated 40% are under 18, 15% are over 65, and that has been consistent
over the years. He added racially the numbers correspond with racial breakdowns of those
living in poverty within the city. He stated 35-40% are African American, 20% identify as
multiracial, and 20-25% are Hispanic.
Councilmember Dumalag asked about household income or AMI. Mr. Reise stated about 91% of
families served by STEP are under the poverty line and 100% are less than 185% of poverty.
Councilmember Dumalag asked if STEP has an endowment. Mr. Reise stated they have a board-
created endowment at $400,000 approximately.
Councilmember Dumalag stated it can be exciting to do a capital campaign, but she is always
concerned about operating and an entity being able to run in the future and she is glad there is
support here.
Councilmember Brausen asked if groceries are being delivered. Mr. Reise stated yes to about 50
families per month. He thanked Mr. Reise for all the work that STEP does.
Councilmember Harris noted she has volunteered at STEP in the past and asked if folks need to
work with the social worker when coming in for food. Mr. Reise stated yes there is an
appointment system, but on Tuesday or Thursday afternoons families can come to pick up a
pre-packed bag of fruits, vegetables, frozen meats, milk, eggs, and bread. He stated this is
publicized with folks already in the system and social media. Councilmember Harris asked for
this information to be shared with the council so members can help with promotion.
City council meeting of November 1, 2021 (Item No. 3a) Page 7
Title: Study session minutes of Sept. 13, 2021
Mayor Spano thanked Mr. Reise for all the work STEP does. He noted STEP’s facilities are noted
for future council discussions. He noted the earlier discussion on rent increases for low-income
families and stated there is a larger population that STEP serves that is deep and broad and the
city is blessed to have STEP there to serve those needs.
Councilmember Brausen asked for the timeline with the building will be completed. Mr. Reise
stated the tenant in the building has now left, and STEP is working to raise funds to expand and
remodel the building, adding it will take some time for this.
Councilmember Rog stated there is a plan to discuss food security again but wanted to confirm
STEP does not feel there is a shortage of healthy food in the community. Mr. Reise stated there
is not a shortage of healthy food, but there might be some access issues.
Councilmember Rog stated access continues to be a challenge and asked what the challenges
are. Mr. Reise stated improvement of cultural competencies and engaging in racial equity work
as a community and being responsive to all people’s needs.
Councilmember Rog noted that Seeds Feeds is not competition for STEP and asked if there is
synergy between the two organizations. Mr. Reise stated STEP has partnered with Seeds Feeds
and connected clients with their cooking and nutrition programs and helped with food
distribution. He stated these are areas they can complement each other and help folks with
accessibility to both programs.
Councilmember Harris stated some folks feel there is a stigma in signing up for STEP and noted
the partnership with Seeds Feeds can help with residents reaching out for help, while
addressing access needs.
3. Future study session agenda planning and prioritization
Councilmember Harris referenced the Sept. 27 agenda and the topic “Transportation
Commission.” Ms. Keller stated there was an error in timeline for this item and noted there are
several upcoming study session items that will be combined. Staff will bring a proposal to
council and look at a systems approach.
Councilmember Harris asked if this topic will come up before the end of the year, since she will
not be on council. Ms. Keller stated this would be taken into consideration. Councilmember
Kraft asked if a prioritization can be done. Ms. Keller stated that would be helpful as well.
Councilmember Rog asked if food security will be discussed again independent of STEP. Ms.
Keller stated a discussion around food security, a potential task force and facilities will all be
discussed at the same time.
Councilmembers Kraft and Dumalag discussed a study session discussion proposal related to
limiting outdoor smoking on patios and looking at a policy decision. Councilmember Kraft
stated there is an equity issue in that employees do not have the option of leaving a very
smoke-filled area. Councilmember Dumalag stated there is no distinction between smoking and
non-smoking areas on these outdoor patios at this time within the city.
City council meeting of November 1, 2021 (Item No. 3a) Page 8
Title: Study session minutes of Sept. 13, 2021
Councilmember Mohamed stated she is in support of this and would like more discussion.
Mayor Spano stated he is not supportive of the discussion. Councilmember Brausen supports
the discussion and asked for information on how many properties are involved. Councilmember
Harris stated she hesitates restriction of the patio areas for smokers but is open to talking
about this and would like to look at data points.
Mayor Spano stated we have no restrictions currently, he is not clear on the discussion points
yet, and is concerned about heading down another path of issues. He directed staff to prepare
the discussion for a future council study session.
Mayor Spano noted a discussion on land acknowledgement and if there was interest in this. He
stated once this is more firm, council can look further at this for a study session discussion.
Communications/meeting check-in (verbal)
Discussion on written reports
Councilmember Rog noted she prefers the sidewalk report be a discussion. Ms. Keller asked if
this was a future study session topic. Mayor Spano stated it is on the list for discussion.
Councilmember Rog stated she would like to spend more time on this with a discussion soon.
Councilmember Kraft agreed there needs to be discussion on the sidewalk topic and asked if it
could it be added to the Sept. 27, 2021, study session.
Councilmember Brausen stated he would like robust community discussion on this topic.
Mayor Spano stated he is not opposed to discussing this, but there are other priorities. Ms.
Keller stated there appears to be a need to look at priorities and discussion process again, and
staff will come back with a proposal to council. She stated she will discuss with staff to see if
this discussion can come back to council at the Sept. 27, 2021, study session.
Councilmember Harris asked about the MSA funds written report and asked if a discussion can
happen around this topic. Ms. Keller stated if there is interest to discuss the scope, the timeline
is close now. Councilmember Harris stated she is interested if there will be impacts on the
scope that would affect the tax levy. She noted the price can go down from the maximum
noted in the report, so therefore she is not interested in changing the scope.
Councilmember Kraft agreed.
Councilmember Rog added she is not interested in reducing costs either because she does not
want more on-street buffered bike lanes. She stated she is supportive of the cycle tracks.
Mayor Spano stated the report did not address anything that was not Louisiana Avenue for the
bike structure. He noted dedicated and separate makes sense but again, staff should be looking
for options that are not on the busiest roads.
City council meeting of November 1, 2021 (Item No. 3a) Page 9
Title: Study session minutes of Sept. 13, 2021
Councilmember Brausen stated option 2 might work and he is interested in hearing how the
bollards work. He is also supportive of this as the best possible product for the community.
Mayor Spano stated related to the American Recovery Plan report, he is not sure if staff works
on grants and asked if there is a way for Minneapolis to support a regional effort on this.
Councilmember Kraft stated the Just Deeds update is largely symbolic and should be linked to
historical housing discrimination issues, within zoning, and so it can be tied into community
support.
Mayor Spano added he has discussed with the city attorney using his home as an educational
piece related to Just Deeds.
Councilmember Rog noted this Saturday is “Minnesothai” at Wat Prom temple and Mayor
Spano will make a presentation. The event is from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. She encouraged folks to
bike or park at Beth-El Synagogue and walk on the bridge.
Ms. Keller stated Fire Station #1 is having an open house event on Friday from 4:30-7:30 p.m.
Mayor Spano stated on Friday there was a threat of violence against Beth-El and he wanted to
thank police and the swift response from the Jewish community to make sure the word got out
related to this anti-Semitic threat. He thanked all those involved.
The meeting adjourned at 9:31 p.m.

MAC, Stacy Kvilvang, Ehlers.
1. Introduction of MAC Commissioner Jim Lawrence
Councilmember Dumalag disclosed that the MAC is a client of her workplace.
Mr. Lawrence introduced himself and reviewed his background. He noted he was appointed
earlier this year by Governor Walz as MAC commissioner. He stated he represents St. Louis Park
and is available to answer any questions of the council.
Mayor Spano stated the noise mitigation program is funded by purchased airline tickets, asking
if that was correct. Ms. Nelson stated it is funded through airport generated revenues.
Mayor Spano asked how the current noise mitigation plan may have changed over the last year.
Ms. Nelson stated the current program sunsets in 2024 and it is through a court-ordered
agreement set up in 2005-07. It states for those to be eligible for the noise mitigation program,
residents need to be within a certain area for 3 years in a row. She added in 2019 there were no
new homes introduced and in 2020, because of the pandemic, there were lower operations
numbers. She stated this program will not be continued. A new program is in the works and
dialogue continues to present this soon.
Councilmember Harris asked how residents should reach out and how the MAC can be of
assistance to people. Mr. Lawrence stated residents can contact Mr. Hoffman or Ms. Nelson at
the MAC. He added he is happy to be contacted as well.
Councilmember Harris asked what type of topics residents ask about. Ms. Nelson stated
anything about the airport, noting residents can contact the MAC by phone or email, and
information is available on their website.
City council meeting of November 1, 2021 (Item No. 3b) Page 2
Title: Study session minutes of Sept. 27, 2021
Councilmember Harris noted occasionally she does receive residents noting loud plane noise in
their neighborhoods. She asked what suggestions can be given to residents for working on their
homes to help mitigate noise. Ms. Nelson stated the MAC can provide contact information for
contractors and the website also provides an interactive flight tracker tool about changes that
occur related to flight traffic. Mr. Lawrence added planes will get quieter over time, not noisier,
as the older planes are going out of service.
Councilmember Kraft referenced the city’s strategic priorities especially the climate action plan
and noted air travel is included in the greenhouse gas plans for the area and reducing carbon
emissions. He asked if the MAC has a climate action plan or any strategic plans on greenhouse
gases or sustainability.
Mr. Lawrence noted he has discussed the city’s climate action plan with Mr. Hoffman. He
complimented the city for their work on climate action and noted as planes get less noisy, they
will also lower their carbon footprint. He stated airlines are very conscious of climate change
and have plans in place.
Ms. Nelson stated the sustainability plan has 4 goals for 2030. She stated the MAC emissions
goal is to reduce carbon emissions by 80% by 2030 at the MSP campus. She added this does not
include specific airline emissions but noted there will be movement in that area as airlines
change the fuels used. She stated solar panels on top of the airport parking structures at
terminals 1 and 2 are part of this plan, along with capability to extend this. She added they did
update support equipment at the airport to electric, as well as an overhaul of their HVAC
controls. She stated they have a way to go to hit 80% at the MSP campus but are working on
how to include these measures into their capital improvement plans.
2. 2022 utility rate study
Ms. Kvilvang presented the report.
Ms. Kvilvang noted the recommendations of rate increases as follows:
• Water 4.5% annually
• Sanitary sewer 3.5% annually
• Storm sewer 6.0% annually
• Sanitation 5.25% annually – and continue phase out of the 20-gallon container
Councilmember Dumalag asked if this is an annual increase over the previous year. Ms. Kvilvang
stated yes. Councilmember Dumalag asked if the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District is its
own taxable entity versus Bass Creek and if the pass through is just to the residents living in
that district. Ms. Weller confirmed it was for residents living in that area.
Councilmember Kraft asked if the council is only looking to see if these criteria meet our
conservation goals and what are the city’s conservation goals. Ms. Kvilvang stated to not
penalize low users and noted that higher users would be pushed into a higher tier, which would
increase the irrigation rate, to encourage conservation.
City council meeting of November 1, 2021 (Item No. 3b) Page 3
Title: Study session minutes of Sept. 27, 2021
Councilmember Kraft asked what the irrigation percentage is. Ms. Kvilvang stated irrigation
pays a higher rate. She noted the goal was to separate this out and then charge at a higher rate
for water usage.
Councilmember Kraft asked what is meant by ‘tiers are working as designed.’ Ms. Kvilvang
stated meeting the goal of not penalizing the lower users and charging the higher users more
for their use shows that the tiers system is working as designed.
Councilmember Kraft asked what was meant by ‘the capital improvement plan is aggressive.’
Ms. Kvilvang stated it is aggressive and complete and a detailed plan, with replacements made
as needed as per staff recommendations. She noted an example of this is as the city is doing
pavement management and roads are dug up, utilities are replaced during that timeframe,
which is efficient.
Councilmember Kraft asked about storm sewer and why there are big jumps in ending cash. Ms.
Kvilvang stated this is cash building up for rate increases, noting it is such a small fund, the
jumps seem exaggerated.
Councilmember Kraft stated the concern he has on the policy question is that the low user is
being penalized. Councilmember Harris agreed. Ms. Kvilvang stated most customers will not fill
the 20-gallon container every week.
Councilmember Kraft stated the policy does not meet the goals especially in the sanitation
area. Additionally, in the multi-family and in commercial, it seems to be a lower cost in the
commercial area. He noted the residential user pays more over time versus the commercial
user.
Councilmember Brausen stated it is a higher percentage increase, but they start at lower rates.
Ms. Kvilvang stated they are paying for what they are using, so it evens out.
Councilmember Mohamed asked about the 6.7% increase. Ms. Kvilvang stated that is the year
over year increase. Councilmember Mohamed asked if residential will pay less because of the
irrigation. Ms. Kvilvang stated yes.
Councilmember Mohamed stated on the policy consideration she believes the city is meeting
the goals as presented.
Councilmember Harris asked which fund is not meeting the goals right now. Ms. Kvilvang stated
the water fund. She stated the city wants to have 3 months operating expenses, next year’s
debt service and all capital plans and cash in reserve in case a problem arises with a utility.
Councilmember Brausen asked if this is a straight user fee of costs for the city providing
services. Ms. Kvilvang stated yes. Councilmember Brausen stated the council decided to
increase the rates on irrigation, such as golf courses or large lawns, to discourage too much
water usage. He supports the tiered rate structure the city uses and noted it accomplishes what
it sets out to do. He hopes to see the costs go down at some point, adding he would not be
averse to increasing irrigation costs.
City council meeting of November 1, 2021 (Item No. 3b) Page 4
Title: Study session minutes of Sept. 27, 2021
Councilmember Brausen stated he is happy about the 30-gallon container and every other
week pick up, adding it is the most used. He asked about commercial solid waste and noted the
residents seemed to pay more if at 90 gallons or more. He noted higher rates might encourage
them to recycle more.
Councilmember Brausen asked if Waste Management does all the commercial collection or if
they use independent companies. Ms. Kvilvang stated commercial can opt out of the city waste
vendors. She added commercial users also have more of an ala carte program to work from, so
it is hard to compare apples to apples.
Councilmember Brausen asked if Waste Management does any type of survey or data about
how full the containers are when emptied. Ms. Fisher stated Waste Management does provide
limited services to commercial, and they do not provide data and is not something the city
requires under the contract.
Mayor Spano stated most folks will move to the 30 gallon and every other week rates. He also
noted the tiering system does not seem to be reducing people’s water usage. Ms. Kvilvang
stated that is correct. Mayor Spano stated this may then need to be revisited if it is not working
to help water conservation.
Mayor Spano noted he did not know that irrigation systems used different water meters. He
added the city has a requirement that projects have dedicated green space, and then the city
requires it to be irrigated. So, we might need to look at this further in the future.
Councilmember Kraft agreed with Mayor Spano’s comments and with adding to the irrigation
fees to benefit the low users. He stated with the green space, the level of maintenance and
watering depends on what is being planted in those areas such as Kentucky Blue grass versus
native plantings.
Councilmember Brausen stated that would require a policy decision on discouraging use of
water and that would warrant a discussion with residents. He stated he would be interested in
this and would want to ask the city attorney for an opinion as well.
3. Update on council-requested agenda items/topics
Ms. Kennedy presented the report to council and asked if the council supports the use of a
systems approach to manage council-requested items.
Councilmember Harris stated she likes the concept. She asked if the process council uses to
request new items would change. Ms. Kennedy stated that would be addressed in a subsequent
phase, noting staff will work through the entire process and bring back suggestions in a future
discussion with council. She noted the first step in the process is to make sure council is ok with
the systems approach. Councilmember Harris stated she supports the approach being taken.
Mayor Spano asked how topics will be included in study sessions. Ms. Kennedy stated many of
the items on the existing list are more substantive topics, adding she would envision putting
City council meeting of November 1, 2021 (Item No. 3b) Page 5
Title: Study session minutes of Sept. 27, 2021
several topics together on one agenda or across several meetings to allow for more meaningful
and thoughtful discussion by council.
Councilmember Kraft noted a specific line from the staff report, ‘the current method is not
achieving desired outcomes for staff or council’ and asked what that means from a staff
perspective and from councils’ perspective.
Ms. Kennedy stated there are a lot of items and it has become difficult to track the status of
items for both council and staff and at times there is confusion on the work being done on
certain topics and how items are prioritized. She added staff will work on developing a tool with
a timeline element that would allow council to better track the status of their items on an
ongoing basis and understand other needs and variables that may be involved.
Councilmember Kraft stated he is supportive of this and would want prioritization to be more
clarified. Ms. Kennedy agreed, noting staff can provide more support for council in this area
going forward.
Councilmember Dumalag appreciated the direction of the process and the buckets of topics.
She also appreciates the items were being categorized to align with the council’s strategic
priorities.
Councilmember Brausen stated he is also in support of a systems approach, noting it would be
nice to get to some of the items that have been on the list for a while.
Councilmember Harris stated there are many items on the list that were proposed a long time
ago and asked how it is determined when items are brought forward. Ms. Kennedy stated there
are many factors that go into determining when an item is brought forward, such as capacity
and readiness. She explained there are items and projects that come up over time that may be
more urgent and need immediate time and attention, such as the city’s pandemic response
efforts. Ultimately it is up to the city manager to determine how and when items are scheduled.
She noted the council will also need to think about and be aware of capacity to manage their
requested items because they are in addition to the standard line of business items that also
need to be completed.
Mayor Spano stated there are items that might not be relevant any longer and can be removed,
and staff can identify them. Ms. Kennedy stated that would be a helpful exercise and staff could
work on that prior to the next discussion with council. She added staff will also be thinking
about how they can help council be more efficient, so everyone has the information needed.
Ms. Keller stated it will be difficult to address all the topics on the current list in the remaining
three months left in the year, but she wanted to point out she is aware of the history of some
of the items and how long they have been outstanding.
Ms. Keller thanked Ms. Kennedy for her work on this project. She reiterated phase 1 of the
project is addressing the backlog of items and then setting up a more efficient system that will
work for both council and staff going forward. She appreciates the spirit of experimentation
and is looking forward to partnering on it.

Title: Study session minutes of Sept. 27, 2021
4. Future study session agenda planning and prioritization
Councilmember Brausen asked about the idling report being addressed here versus being
discussed as a sustainability item. Ms. Kennedy stated yes, staff had already prepared and
scheduled this item for discussion, so it was kept on the current schedule.
Communications/meeting check-in (verbal)
Ms. Keller stated a mailing will be going to residents about yard waste collection and going back
to weekly collection. She thanked residents for their patience on this as Waste Management
hired more drivers.
Ms. Keller noted an award planning staff received from Success Stories and Implementation for
work on the Historic Walker District revitalization plan and an innovation and planning award
around the speed limit work.
Councilmember Harris stated the Louisiana Bridge will be completed and reopened on Oct. 18,
2021.
Councilmember Brausen referenced the green building policy report and asked if a car
dealership is proposing to rebuild one of their buildings, and since it is a CUP, can they be asked
to install solar or adhere to sustainability policies.
Ms. Keller stated there may be some limitations since it is a CUP and not a full rebuild. She
stated she will contact the city attorney for further information.
The meeting adjourned at 8:20 p.m.

Executive summary
Title: Second reading to amend city code regarding setting of fees
Recommended action: Motion to approve second reading and adopt Ordinance amending the
St. Louis Park City Code related to the setting of fees.
Policy consideration: Does the city council wish to align with recommendations from the
League of Minnesota Cities and adopt utility rates and liquor license fees by ordinance?
Summary: Based on various Minnesota state statutes, the League of Minnesota Cities (LMC)
advises setting most fees by ordinance. To comply with this guidance, staff recommends city
council adopt utility rates and liquor license fees by ordinance, rather than by resolution. City
codes to be modified include 3-59 Retail license fees, 32-31 Water rates, 32-32 Service
connection fee, 32-98 Sewer rental rates, and 32-203 Water meters. This ordinance also
corrects language in city code 32-142 Rates and charges.
Financial or budget considerations: Not applicable.
Strategic priority consideration: Not applicable.
Supporting documents: Discussion

2021 Appendix A
Prepared by: Sharae Sledge, finance manager
Reviewed by: Melanie Schmitt, chief financial officer
Approved by: Kim Keller, city manager
City council meeting of November 1, 2021 (Item No. 4b) Page 2
Title: Second reading to amend city code regarding setting of fees
Discussion
Background: The City of St. Louis Park fee schedule includes major items such as permits,
license fees, and inspections. The current process to modify our fee schedule is to review all
fees annually, by department, and staff determines where changes are needed. We then
present these changes to council in the ordinance to be adopted for the following year. In prior
years, we have set our utility and liquor license fees by resolution. Fees approved by resolution
were not included on the schedule or fees being approved by ordinance. After reviewing
guidance provided by the League of Minnesota Cities and seeking legal counsel, it has been
decided that utility and liquor license fees should be adopted by ordinance.
Present considerations: We propose changing our ordinance to comply with best practices and
include the following fees in appendix A (see below). By moving from passage by resolution to
passage by ordinance, the process will change from not including liquor license fees and utility
fees in the fee ordinance, to now including them so they are published on the city’s website.
This change will add convenience and increase visibility for users when looking for fees charged
by the city. We will continue to list utility rates separately on the utility billing web page, but
they will now also be included on the fee schedule.

Title: Second reading to amend city code regarding setting of fees
Next steps: Modify city code to adopt utility and liquor license fees by ordinance rather than
set by resolution. Add liquor license fees and utility rates to appendix A items of fee schedule.
Staff will continue to evaluate all fees annually as part of the budget process. Fees will be
updated to remain comparable with other cities and to ensure that amounts charged
adequately cover costs associated with providing city services.
A public hearing with first reading of the full Appendix A fee schedule will be held on Nov. 15,
2021.

Ordinance No. ___-21
City of St. Louis Park
Hennepin County, Minnesota
An Ordinance Amending St. Louis Park City Code Sections
relating to the setting of fees
The City of St. Louis Park does ordain:
Section 1. St. Louis Park City Code Section 3-59(a) is hereby amended by adding the
underlined language and deleting the strikethrough language as follows:
Sec. 3-59. Retail license fees.
(a)Annual fees. The annual fee for all licenses shall be set by the city council, by
resolution ordinance, in amounts no greater than those set forth in M.S.A. Ch. 340A.
Section 2. St. Louis Park City Code Section 32-31(a) is hereby amended by adding the
underlined language and deleting the strikethrough language as follows:
Sec. 32-31. Water rates.
(a)Rates. The rate due and payable to the city by each water user with the city for
billings on or after February 26, 2001, for water taken from the city water supply system shall
be set by city council resolution ordinance. All charges for single-family and multiple-family
dwelling users shall be determined and payable on a quarterly basis, and all charges for
commercial, industrial and institutional users shall be determined and payable on a monthly or
quarterly basis; provided, however, that there shall be a service charge to each water user for
each quarter year period during which water service is furnished as set by city council
resolution. In case the meter is found to have stopped or to be operating in a faulty manner,
the amount of water used will be estimated in accordance with the amount previously used for
the comparable period of the last previous year.
Section 3. St. Louis Park City Code Section 32-31(c) is hereby amended by adding the
underlined language and deleting the strikethrough language as follows:
Sec. 32-31. Water rates.
(c)Water bills. Water bills shall be mailed to customers for the service periods set
forth in subsection (a) of this section, and shall specify the water consumed and the charges in
accordance with rates set forth by city council resolution ordinance.
Section 4. St. Louis Park City Code Section 32-32 is hereby amended by adding the
underlined language and deleting the strikethrough language as follows:
City council meeting of November 1, 2021 (Item No. 4b) Page 7
Title: Second reading to amend city code regarding setting of fees
Sec. 32-32. Service connection fee.
The state-mandated service connection fee listed in this section for testing water supplies
will be collected by the city and remitted to the state department of revenue. The service
connection fee due and payable to the city by each water user within the city for water taken
from the city water supply system shall be an amount set by city council resolution ordinance.
Section 5. St. Louis Park City Code Section 32-98 is hereby amended by adding the
underlined language and deleting the strikethrough language as follows:
Sec. 32-98. Sewer rental rates.
Charges for sewer service to residential and nonresidential users within the city provided
in section 32-97 for billings on or after February 26, 2001, shall be: an amount per 100 cubic
feet of water consumption set by city council resolution, as measured during the winter
consumption (or otherwise determined in subsection (1) of this section), and a monthly service
charge of an amount set by city council resolution ordinance, or an amount quarterly per
dwelling or account set by city council resolution ordinance.
(1) All residential sewer customer charges shall be determined by computing the
winter water consumption as determined by the city billing cycle for each
district. Commercial sewer charges shall be determined by computing the water
consumption each month throughout the year. In any case where winter meter
readings are not available or appropriate, charges shall be made on the basis of
current water consumption.
(2) A penalty of ten percent shall be added to the amount due on any sewer bill if
not paid within three weeks after the billing date. Payments received within
three working days following the due date shall be deemed as paid within such
period.
(3) All owners, lessees and occupants of buildings discharging sewerage into the city
sewer while using water from any source other than the city municipal water
system shall install meters or other measuring devices meeting with the city
water meter specifications to measure either the water used or the discharge
into the sewer.
Section 6. St. Louis Park City Code Section 32-142 is hereby amended by adding the
underlined language and deleting the strikethrough language as follows:
Sec. 32-142. Rates and charges.
Fees for the use and availability of the storm sewer system shall be determined through
the use of a residential equivalent factory (REF). A residential equivalent factory is the ratio of
the volume of runoff generated by one acre of a particular land use to the volume of runoff
generated by one acre of single-family and two-family residential land use based upon average
annual rainfall.
Section 7. St. Louis Park City Code Section 32-203(e) is hereby amended by adding the
underlined language and deleting the strikethrough language as follows:
City council meeting of November 1, 2021 (Item No. 4b) Page 8
Title: Second reading to amend city code regarding setting of fees
Sec. 32-203. Water meters.
(e) Whenever any meter shall become obstructed or out of order, the director of public
works shall cause it to be repaired. The director of public works shall direct the cost of such
repairs to be paid out of the funds of the water department unless the meter has been
damaged by freezing or willful neglect by someone outside of the city employ. On request of
any customer and payment to the city clerk of a fee set by city council resolution ordinance, the

FEE SCHEDULES:
FIXING FEES VIA ORDINANCE OR RESOLUTION
It is becoming increasingly popular for cities to make use of a fee schedule in setting and/or changing licensing and other regulatory
fees. The fee schedule is a list of each fee charged by the city that is usually found in an appendix of the city’s ordinance book. Fee
schedules are developed in lieu of listing individual dollar amounts in each separate licensing or regulatory section of the ordinance
book. By using a fee schedule, a city can revise all its fees at once in a single ordinance revision, rather than revising many separate
ordinance provisions. The schedule also generally makes it easier to handle publishing concerns.
While fee schedules can be convenient, they have the tendency to blur the distinctions between different types of licensing fees. Often
State statutes impose unique notice or hearing provisions regarding a change in licensing fees. In other instances, State statutes may
prescribe dollar limitations on certain fees. Cities must heed these requirements in changing their fees even when using a blanket fee
schedule.
Finally, most fees should be set via ordinance and changed via an ordinance amendment. Although fixing license fees by resolution is
more convenient and eliminates the necessity of publishing, fixing fees in such a manner is probably invalid. A rare exception to this
occurs only where the enabling State statute allows for the fee to be sent via resolution. Where State statute does not permit cities to
set the fee via resolution, such fees are probably void and likely unenforceable in a court of law.
The attached chart has been developed by the League Research Department to provide cities with a convenient method for
determining whether a fee should be set via ordinance or resolution, when a public hearing or individual notice is required and
whether the State imposes limits on the fee amount.

Executive summary
Title: Second readings of ordinances for 9808 and 9920 Wayzata Boulevard redevelopment
Recommended actions:
1.Motion to approve second reading and adopt Ordinance amending Section 36-268-11
and approve the Summary Ordinance for publication.
2.Motion to approve second reading and adopt Ordinance vacating drainage and utility
easement and approve the Summary Ordinance for publication.
3.Motion to approve second reading and adopt Ordinance amending right-of-way
vacation ordinance and approve the Summary Ordinance for publication.
Policy consideration: Does the proposed redevelopment meet the city’s affordable housing and
neighborhood development goals?
Summary: ESG Architects, on behalf of Bigos Management, proposes a six-story, 233-unit
apartment development on property located at 9808 and 9920 Wayzata Boulevard. Twenty
percent (20%) of the units will be affordable at 50% area median income (AMI).
The planning commission held a public hearing on Oct. 6, 2021 and recommended approval of a
comprehensive plan amendment, preliminary and final pat, and PUD amendment.
On Oct. 18, 2021, city council unanimously approved: a resolution amending the
Comprehensive Plan 2040 Land Use Map for 9808 and 9920 Wayzata Boulevard from office
(OFC) and right-of-way (ROW) to high density residential (RH); a resolution for a preliminary
and final plat; a first reading of the PUD amendment ordinance; a first reading of an easement
vacation ordinance; and a first reading of a right-of-way vacation amendment ordinance.
Financial or budget considerations: The development team has expressed that the proposed
project’s financial pro forma exhibits a substantial gap which makes the mixed income
development financially infeasible. To offset this gap, the development team has applied for tax
increment financing (TIF) assistance to enable the project to proceed. Staff will submit a report
outlining the TIF request to the EDA at a future meeting. Staff recommend collecting $349,500
in park dedication fees in-lieu of park land, and $52,425 in trail dedication fees.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing a broad range of

Executive summary
Title: Special assessment – sewer service line repair at 5616 Vermont Street
Recommended action: Motion to adopt Resolution authorizing the special assessment for the
repair of the sewer service line at 5616 Vermont Street, St. Louis Park, Minnesota.
P.I.D. 21-117-21-34-0035.
Policy consideration: The proposed action is consistent with a policy previously established by
the city council.
Summary: Craig Bloomstrand, owner of the single-family residence at 5616 Vermont Street, has
requested the city authorize the repair of the sewer service line for his 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 $6,000.
Financial or budget considerations: The city has funds in place to finance the cost of this special
assessment.
Strategic priority consideration: Not applicable.

Title: Final payment resolution – Southeast Bikeways – Project No. 4018-2000
Discussion
Background: The Southeast Bikeways are a part of the city’s Connect the Park capital
improvement plan (CIP). Connect the Park is designed to create a system that provides
sidewalks approximately every 1/4-mile and bikeways every 1/2-mile to improve pedestrian
and bicycle connectivity throughout the community.
As in the case with most of the bikeways in the Connect the Park initiative, this transportation
project is a retrofit project rather than a full reconstruction of the street. Reconstruction of any of
these street segments is not on the current 10-year CIP. Instead, this project made improvements
at key locations to further the city’s policy goals of safer travel for all modes of traffic.
On Aug. 17, 2020, the city council awarded a contract in the amount of $347,676.50 to GL
Contracting, Inc. for the Southeast Bikeways. The project included bikeways on Wooddale
Avenue, Princeton Avenue, Quentin Avenue, Park Commons Drive, Wolfe Park and 38th Street.
During construction, some unexpected items came up that added to the cost of the project. The
additional work that was completed increased the cost of the contract by $84,255.59. There
were change orders on the project and quantity increases during construction. This additional
work was necessary to ensure there is quality street, bikeway, and sidewalk infrastructure for
years to come and to address resident requests.
The additional costs can be attributed to the following:
•The construction of the bikeway along Park Commons Drive from Quentin Avenue to
Princeton Lane required relocation of curb and removing a portion of the pavement on
this road segment. During construction, it was determined that the condition of the
pavement that would have been left in place was very poor. This segment of roadway
was not on the city pavement rehabilitation schedule until 2026. Leaving it until 2026
would have likely resulted in potholes developing in the pavement that was not
replaced. As a preventative measure and to reduce future disruption for the property
owners, the full width of the pavement was replaced on this block at a cost of $50,000.
•When the parking bay on Wooddale Avenue just south of 42 1/2 Street was installed,
the resident at 4251 Wooddale Avenue was concerned about how the parking
interacted with their driveway. To address this concern, we removed and replaced the
bay to provide greater separation from the driveway. The cost for this work was $7,400.
•The asphalt trail in Wolfe Park was expanded to improve safety by providing a wider
merge area for the various trails near the REC Center entrance at a cost of $7,500.
•Various concrete sidewalk panels were removed and replaced along Wooddale Avenue
to remove trip hazards and damaged segments of walk at a cost of $8,300.
•All the catch basin castings along the bike route were switched out to bicycle-safe grates
at a cost of $4,500.
•Through resident feedback and an audit of the corridor by staff, we added signs to the
corridor. This included additional no parking signs, bike lane signs, upgrades to
crosswalk signage and replacement of stop signs at a cost of $6,800.
•It was determined that it would not be possible to maintain a safe pedestrian crossing of
Wooddale near 42 1/2 Street during construction. To address this, we installed a
temporary sidewalk and crossing to maintain the pedestrian route for the community for
the duration of construction at this busy intersection. The cost for this work was $500.

Title: Approve trail connection agreement with Three Rivers Park District on North Cedar Lake Trail
Recommended action: Motion to authorize the mayor and city manager to execute the local
trail connection agreement with Three Rivers Park District.
Policy consideration: Does the city council support the continued use of the city’s connections
to the North Cedar Lake Regional Trail?
Summary: A version of this agreement was presented to council on Oct. 18. That agreement
included three connections to the North Cedar Lake Regional Trail:
• Existing trail access at Nelson Park that was not impacted by construction of the Dakota
Edgewood trail bridge
• Existing trail access at Dakota Park that was removed and is being replaced as part of
the bridge construction
• New temporary trail access at the east side of Dakota Park that was built as the regional
trail detour during bridge construction
During the discussion council directed staff to modify the agreement to remove the temporary
trail connection that was created in the fall of 2020 to connect the North Cedar Lake Regional
Trail to the east side of Dakota Park. This trail was used as the detour route for regional trail
users to safely bypass bridge construction activities. Now that construction is nearing
completion the trail is no longer required and will be removed as part of the final grading.
Three Rivers Park District is still requesting an access agreement for the remaining two trail
connections to define ownership and maintenance of the existing trail connection. The
updated agreement has been modified to removal the temporary trail connection along the
east side of Dakota Park.
Financial or budget considerations: The city has been maintaining and removing snow from
these trail connections and this trail connection agreement does not have additional financial
impacts to the city.
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: Approve trail connection agreement with Three Rivers Park District on North Cedar Lake Trail
Discussion
Background: During the early stages of construction of the Dakota Edgewood trail bridge, the
contractor constructed an asphalt trail along the east side of Dakota Park, connecting the North
Cedar Lake Regional Trail to the east side of Dakota Park near the home plate of the northerly
baseball field.
The trail was used as a detour route multiple times during the construction of the bridge. This
included several weeks over the winter to allow the contractor to pile drive and dig footings
adjacent to the trail. The trail was anticipated to be removed at the end of the project due to
the Three Rivers Park District's concern during project development with how this access might
impact the regional trail. The Operations and Recreation department received positive
feedback about this trail connection and asked engineering staff if we could keep the trail as a
permanent connection. The connection had been in place for almost a year and has been
proven to be a safe and well-used access to the regional trail. Three Rivers Park District
supports allowing this trail connection to remain.
During discussions with Three Rivers regarding the temporary trail access it was determined
that no agreement was in place for the two trail accesses that were in place prior to
construction starting. As a result, an agreement was drafted for all three accesses.
This agreement was brought to council on Oct. 18. As a part of the discussion, council directed
staff to remove the temporary trail access at the east side of Dakota Park that was built as the
regional trail detour during bridge construction. The revised agreement includes two access
locations to the North Cedar Lake Regional Trail at the following locations:
• Existing trail access at Nelson Park that was not impacted by construction of the Dakota
Edgewood trail bridge
• Existing trail access at Dakota Park that was removed and will be replaced as part of the
bridge construction
The city currently owns and maintains these trail connections on city-owned land. The local trail
access agreement formalizes these connections and does not change ownership or
maintenance responsibilities of the trail connections.

District for the North Cedar Lake Trail

interest to enter into an agreement with Three Rivers Park District to establish the connections

Title: 2022 budget and property owner service charges for Special Service District No. 1
Discussion
Background: On Oct. 17, 2016, the city council approved a resolution imposing a multi-year
service charge for Special Service District No. 1 (this district is located along Excelsior Boulevard
from Quentin Avenue to Highway 100 and along Park Center Boulevard and Monterey Drive).
Annually, the city council must set a service charge for the district following a public hearing on
the proposed charge. The Special Service District property owners approved the proposed 2022
budget and service charges. The notice of public hearing was published on the city’s website
and in the Sun Sailor on Oct. 7 and Oct. 21, 2021. The public hearing notice was sent to all
property owners within the district.
Special Service District No. 1 Financial Position
Special Service District No. 1 has an anticipated 2021 year-end fund balance of approximately
$54,845.
Proposed 2021 Budget and Service Charges
The property owners recommended approval of the following:
• 2022 budget amount of $106,672; no change from 2021.
• 2022 service charge amount of $96,672; no change from 2021.
• In general, expenses do not typically reach 100% of budget. The expected unused budget
amount along with the service charges is anticipated to allow the district to achieve the
goal of a 75% fund balance which staff and board agreed should be maintained.
Present considerations: The Special Service Districts are a benefit to the businesses and city as
they help maintain the improvements made in the district, promote a positive image of the
business corridor, and attract customers to the area.
Next steps:
• On Nov. 15, 2021, the city council will be asked to adopt a resolution setting the 2022
Special Service District No. 1 budget and property owner service charges and directing
staff to certify the annual service charges to Hennepin County.
• In late-November, the city certifies the 2022 assessments (service charges) to Hennepin
County.

to maintain the proper fund balance.
2)For 2022, the proposed budget and service charges remain the same.
3)The proposed 2022 service charge calculations are based upon the same methodology used for the initial service charge collection.
a) Commercial sidewalk snow removal charges are based on the square foot of sidewalk in front of the property.
b) All other services charges are based on the property's front footage.

City council meeting of November 1, 2021 (Item No. 6a-IV) Page 2
Title: 2022 budget and property owner service charges for Special Service District No. 4
Discussion
Background: On Oct. 5, 2015, the city council approved a resolution imposing a service charge
for Special Service District No. 4 (located along Excelsior Boulevard west of Highway 100 to
Louisiana Avenue). Annually, the city council must set a service charge for the district following
a public hearing on the proposed charge. The Special Service District property owners approved
the proposed 2022 budget and service charges. The notice of public hearing was published on
the city’s website and in the Sun Sailor on Oct. 7 and Oct. 21, 2021. The public hearing notice
was sent to all property owners within the district.
Special Service District No. 4 financial position
Special Service District No. 4 has an anticipated 2021 year-end fund balance of approximately
$7,046.
Proposed 2022 budget and service charges
The property owners recommended approval of the following:
• 2022 budget amount of $26,935; no change from 2021.
• 2022 service charge amount of $24,935; a $2,000 increase from 2021 to reflect a $2,000
reduction in transfer from reserves.
• In general, expenses do not typically reach 100% of budget. The expected unused budget
amount along with the service charges is anticipated to allow the district to achieve the
goal of a 75% fund balance which staff and board agreed should be maintained.
Present considerations:
The Special Service Districts are a benefit to the city as they promote a positive image of the
business corridor and to attract customers to the area.
Next steps:
• On Nov. 15, 2021, the city council will be asked to adopt a resolution setting the 2022
Special Service District No. 4 budget and property owner service charges and directing
staff to certify the annual service charges to Hennepin County.
• In late-November, the city certifies the 2022 assessments (service charges) to Hennepin
County.

Title: 2022 budget and service for Special Service District No. 6
Discussion
Background: On June 15, 2009, the city council approved a resolution imposing a service charge
for Special Service District No. 6 (located along 36th Street W. from Wooddale Avenue to
Highway 100). Annually, the city council must set a service charge for the district following a
public hearing on the proposed charge. The special service district property owners approved
the proposed 2022 budget and service charges. The notice of public hearing was published on
the city’s website and in the Sun Sailor on Oct. 7 and Oct. 21, 2021. The public hearing notice
was sent to all property owners within the District.
Special Service District No. 6 financial position
Special Service District No. 6 has an anticipated 2021 year-end fund balance of approximately
$42,910.
Proposed 2022 budget and service charges
The property owners recommended approval of the following:
• 2022 budget amount of $27,400; no change from 2021.
• 2022 service charge amount of $20,400; no change from 2021.
• In general, expenses do not typically reach 100% of budget. The expected unused budget
amount along with the service charges is anticipated to allow the district to achieve the
goal of a 75% fund balance which staff and board agreed should be maintained.
Present considerations: The Special Service Districts are a benefit to the city as they promote a
positive image of the business corridor and to attract customers to the area.
Next steps:
• On Nov. 15, 2021, the city council will be asked to adopt a resolution setting the 2022
Special Service District No. 6 budget and property owner service charges, extending the
district for another 10 years, and directing staff to certify the annual service charges to
Hennepin County.
• In late-November, the city certifies the 2022 assessments (service charges) to Hennepin
County.

Notes:
1)The proposed 2022 budget is $27,400, but the service charge is only $22,400 because $5,000 was transferred from reserves
to maintain the proper fund balance.
2)For 2022, the proposed budget and service charges remained the same.
3)The proposed 2022 service charge calculations are based upon the same methodology used for the initial service charge collection.

Executive summary
Title: Smoking restrictions on restaurant/bar/distillery outdoor patio spaces
Recommended action: No action required. Staff is providing background information and data
on outdoor smoking restriction policies for council consideration.
Policy consideration:
• Does the City Council wish to pursue business and restaurant education around how to
reduce or eliminate secondhand smoking impacts for staff and patrons that do not rely
on additional regulation?
• Does the City Council wish to amend city code to implement restrictions on the outdoor
smoking of tobacco and tobacco products at food and beverage establishments?
Summary: The Minnesota Clean Indoor Air Act (MCIAA) does not prohibit outdoor smoking,
regardless of the proximity to building openings including doors and windows, or for outdoor
seating in service establishments. Local governments are authorized to adopt and enforce more
restrictive measures to protect individuals from secondhand smoke. An ordinance that requires
no smoking areas but does not prohibit smoking in outdoor seating areas will not eliminate the
risks of secondhand smoke to employees.
Currently, few cities in Minnesota have adopted smoking restriction ordinances around outdoor
seating in service establishments. Instead, restaurants have largely addressed the issue through
their business models. A limited review of food and beverage establishments in the City of St.
Louis Park finds that most businesses already prohibit or restrict smoking in outdoor seating
areas and only one of the reviewed establishments was found to have no restrictions.
St. Louis Park has limited enforcement authority over the food and beverage businesses,
especially those without a liquor license. Additionally, complaints about individuals smoking
would result in police response and potential ticket against the individual, not the business.
Based on staff’s market review and enforcement limitations, an ordinance adopted to restrict
smoking will likely have minimal overall impact. An alternate solution is to direct staff’s
educational efforts to reduce or eliminate secondhand smoking impacts.
Financial or budget considerations: None
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to continue to lead in
environmental stewardship.

Title: Smoking restrictions on restaurant/bar/distillery outdoor patio spaces
Discussion
Background: The Minnesota Clean Indoor Air Act (MCIAA) prohibits smoking in many indoor
places and was amended in 2007 under the Freedom to Breathe Act to include bars and other
food or liquor establishments. In 2019, the MCIAA was amended again to expand the definition
of smoking to include vaping (the use of electronic delivery devices for nicotine). The MCIAA
does not prohibit outdoor smoking. The MCIAA does authorize local units of government to
limit or prohibit smoking in outdoor areas.
The MCIAA interprets outdoor area as those areas that do not meet the definition of an indoor
area which is defined in Minnesota Statute Section 144.413.
Subd. 1a. Indoor area. “Indoor area” means all space between a floor and a ceiling that
is bounded by walls, doorways, or windows, whether open or closed, covering more than
50 percent of the combined surface area of the vertical planes constituting the perimeter
of the area. A wall includes any retractable divider, garage door, or other physical
barrier, whether temporary or permanent. A 0.011 gauge screen with an 18 by 16 mesh
count is not a wall.
OSHA does not provide specific regulations to employees’ exposure to secondhand smoke.
Employees are protected under OSHA rules regarding air quality, but tobacco smoke exposure
rarely reaches a level exceeding OSHA standards. Smoking restrictions do provide a means to
mitigate the harmful effects of secondhand smoke to the public and employees.
St. Louis Park was an early leader in working to reduce secondhand tobacco exposure in
restaurants. Before the MCIAA was amended in 2007, the city began a tobacco disclosure
notice program for food and beverage establishments, consisting of entrance signage and
testing for establishments that elected to not go smoke free.
In recent years city tobacco sale license requirements have been implemented by council to help
reduce tobacco usage by increasing the age to purchase and limiting sales of flavored products.
Present considerations: Following preliminary council discussion, staff researched which other
cities and counties in Minnesota had adopted an ordinance further restricting smoking and
electronic cigarettes specifically for outdoor seating areas of food and beverage establishments.
The table below outlines those findings. Cities not listed were not identified as having smoking
regulations above and beyond MCIAA.

Title: Smoking restrictions on restaurant/bar/distillery outdoor patio spaces
The requirements also typically include the posting of signage identifying the outdoor space, or
portions of, as a no-smoking area.
Currently Hennepin County Environmental Health is the licensing authority for food and
beverage establishments in St. Louis Park, giving the city limited enforcement authority over
the business. That said, the Building and Energy department may enforce a signage code
violation against the business. Additionally, multiple, validated complaints against a business
with a liquor license could be subject to adverse license action. St. Louis Park would not have
licensing authority in situations of where a food and beverage establishment does not have a
liquor license. Specific complaints generated about individuals smoking would result in police
response and potential ticket against the individual, not the business.
A survey of a number of city establishments with outdoor seating areas was completed to
discover the scope of the issue. The following smoking policies were reported:
Establishment No Smoking Limited Smoking Smoking not restricted
Crave X
Rojo X
Block X
Park Tavern X
McCoys X
Bunny’s X
The table above indicates that most establishments in St. Louis Park already prohibit or limit
smoking in outdoor seating areas. Adoption of a new ordinance would have limited impact to
food and beverage establishments.
Next steps: If council would like staff to pursue additional education with businesses, staff
would reach out to those food and beverage establishments currently allowing smoking in
outdoor areas and provide public health information regarding the harmful effects of
secondhand smoke to individuals and employees to encourage them to go smoke free.
If council would like staff to pursue considering adopting a code limiting outside tobacco and
tobacco product use, staff will discuss effectiveness of different ordinance models with other
jurisdictions and work with our city attorney, police department, clerk’s office, and the business
community on a recommendation to present to council.
