Executive summary
Title: Managing change in residential neighborhoods
Recommended action: Review the strategic priorities and comprehensive plan goals and
strategies in preparation for questions you will be asked during a facilitated conversation and a
consensus workshop regarding the policy question.
Policy consideration: How can our low-density residential neighborhoods become more aligned
with our adopted strategic priorities?
Summary: On September 12, 2022, the city council agreed to discuss the topic of managing
change in residential neighborhoods. Council wanted to revisit the Vision 3.0 values,
comprehensive plan goals and strategies, and strategic priorities that are closely related to the
issue of managing change in existing single-family (low-density) residential neighborhoods.
To accomplish this, staff have planned a two-part study session, to be conducted in one
evening. First, staff will facilitate a focused conversation among council members as an
opportunity to share reflections and insights on our current policy guidance around this topic.
The facilitation should also help broaden perspectives and reveal the existing level of
consensus. The content developed in that conversation will be brought back to council later in
the same evening for a consensus workshop.
During the second part of the study session, staff will facilitate a workshop that will lead to
consensus-based group decisions that respect diverse perspectives, create joint resolve, and
lead to action. We expect to achieve basic outcomes that will help guide future work.
Staff assembled excerpts of Vision 3.0 and the comprehensive plan goals and strategies that
most closely relate to single-family residential neighborhoods for your review before the
meeting. We also attached the strategic priorities for council to review again before the
meeting. These provide context for the conversation.
Financial or budget considerations: None at this time.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing a broad range of
housing and neighborhood oriented development.
Supporting documents: Discussion; strategic priorities; map single-family districts

Executive summary
Title: Corridor parking policy
Recommended action: No action is required at this time. Please review the report and provide
comments or questions to city staff.
Policy consideration: Does the city council wish to allow businesses to have less- or no-required
on-site parking and for parking needs to be met, by some extent, by on-street parking facilities
throughout the city?
Summary: Current zoning code parking standards seek to contain most of the parking needed
for various uses on-site or adjacent to the property where they operate and avoid parking from
spilling out onto nearby local streets. This approach limits new uses that may occupy existing
buildings, as it presents a barrier for some businesses and organizations that want to locate in
well-suited buildings due to insufficient off-street parking on the property. This report explores
how changing the approach to parking may advance the city’s strategic priorities while also
looking at how changes to the approach could impact the community.
Financial or budget considerations: None at this time.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing a broad range of
housing and neighborhood oriented development.

Title: Corridor parking policy
Discussion
Background
In April 2021, Councilmember Kraft and Mayor Spano proposed a study session topic regarding
parking regulations. They highlighted that council policy prioritizes walkable, transit-focused,
dense redevelopment. The city’s current approach to parking and implementation through
zoning code regulations for parking can have the opposite effect, preventing proposals that
otherwise fit within the city’s vision for vibrant, walkable, neighborhood-oriented development
due to insufficient on-site parking.
The city’s most recent revision to parking standards reduced the amount of parking required for
some uses and for properties close to transit. Those revisions adapted rules to changing market
and site conditions yet followed the city’s same general approach to contain nearly all the
parking generated by a use to the site where it occurs.
Within this report, staff summarize the city’s current off-street parking regulations. It highlights
other recent changes in the Historic Walker Lake area (MX-2 zoning district), which may signal
interest to make more changes to the current approach to off-street parking or extend recent
policies to more areas and circumstances.
Current approach to parking standards
Parking standards in zoning
“The purpose of regulating off-street parking, paved areas and loading spaces is to prevent
congestion on public rights-of-way for the safety and welfare of the public. The regulations are
created through analysis of the associated land use intensity, duration, time and style and
result in design requirements and standards for such facilities.” [city code section 36-361]
The city’s off-street parking regulations require individual businesses and entities to provide
nearly all their estimated parking needs on-site and avoid vehicles parking the on-street,
especially on local roads where single-family houses are located.
Off-street parking regulations use formulas to determine minimum parking quantities based on
the use(s) of a property. For example, coffee shops require one parking space per 200 square
feet of gross floor area, requiring a 2,000-square-foot coffee shop to provide a minimum of 10
off-street parking spaces.
The focus of this report is on the quantity of vehicle parking required. Staff note that there are
additional regulations contained in the off-street parking section of the zoning code, and there
are added parking restrictions in other code sections such as conditions to conduct specific uses
within some districts. The other regulations address design of parking lots and loading areas,
including aisle and parking stall dimensions, lighting, yards, screening, landscaping, and other
issues meant to mitigate negative impacts of parking lots. The code also requires bicycle
parking and electric vehicle charging stations.
Special study session meeting of November 7, 2022 (Item No. 2) Page 3
Title: Corridor parking policy
The zoning code provides several ways to reduce the parking requirements:
• Transit reductions
o 30% reduction if within ¼ mile of LRT Station
o 20% reduction if within ½ mile of LRT Station
o 15% reduction if within ¼ mile of High-Frequency Bus Service stop
o 10% reduction if within ¼ mile of Regular Bus Service stop
• On-street parking reduction
o One-for-one reduction for each available on-street space when the spaces are
directly adjacent to the parcel
• Travel demand management (TDM) reduction
o Only applicable if the other two reductions listed above are not available
o 5% reduction if a TDM plan adopted
Required parking spaces must be located on the same lot as the principal use. The only
exception is when off-site parking is approved for the use. Off-site parking requires a
conditional use permit, permanent easements, pedestrian connections to the parking lot, and
the lot must be within 500 feet walking distance unless private shuttle services are provided.
Shared parking between uses/properties is also allowed in any district with conditions. It
requires a parking plan/study showing the highest peak demand hours for all uses. Shared
parking can be utilized for sites with mixed uses on one site, such as a campus or shopping
center, or between adjacent sites with complementary uses. Shared parking between sites also
requires an irrevocable covenant between the properties that is recorded with the county.
The code also includes a proof of parking provision, which is intended to help reduce the
amount of impervious surface on a site, at least temporarily, as another means to only build the
parking needed, rather than always strictly adhering to the minimum parking quantities the
standard formulas indicate are needed.
The intention of current regulations and policies is to ensure vehicles arriving to a property for
the uses on that property do not park on the street in surrounding areas.
Non-regulatory parking expectations
Many businesses, developers and lenders have their own expectations for parking. These
requirements vary based on their experiences or perceptions of what conditions their
customers or employees will require, demand, or tolerate. Larger corporations may have
prescribed formulas for their business model. Smaller businesses likely have more flexibility and
data to inform their decisions. They may consider many factors including the number,
convenience, visibility, and perception of the parking available. This usually means it is on-site
or immediately adjacent to the site and near the store entrance. When a city road construction
project results in fewer or less convenient on-street parking spaces, there is often vocal
opposition from stakeholders because the parking is not directly in front of the property even
when there are other options available. In many settings, parking is also expected to be free. In
St. Louis Park, currently there are few exceptions where people pay a fee to park. These are
convenient, climate controlled, secured parking garages or lots where there are few
alternatives available (e.g., apartment buildings, hospitals, and clinics, etc.).

Recent code changes and shifting policy direction
Historic Walker Lake
The city created the MX-2 neighborhood mixed use zoning district in November 2020, which
was the culmination of planning efforts for the Historic Walker Lake Area to establish zoning
standards that allowed for revitalization of existing buildings and infill growth that fit within the
existing character of that area. One major consideration was how to regulate off-street parking
there. A study of the neighborhood showed that there was an underutilized supply of parking
(private off-street, municipal parking lots and public on-street parking combined) and the city’s
parking requirements limited the types of desirable uses from occupying existing buildings.
The city adopted new parking standards for the MX-2 district that lowered parking minimums
and established parking maximums for the district, allow existing buildings to intensify the uses
within them without providing more parking. Only new buildings or building expansions are
held to the new, lower minimum parking requirements. In the lead up to the adoption of the
code, the board of zoning approvals granted two massive parking variances to allow two
businesses to occupy existing buildings that were proposed before the city concluded its
process. The city considered both the abundant existing supply of parking in the MX-2 district
and the relatively low risk, even long term, of parking spilling into the surrounding streets and
residential areas that border the district.
Parking formula amendments
The city council also recently adopted ordinance 2637-21 on December 6, 2021, which updated
several parking standards in the zoning code. The purpose of the ordinance was to update
parking language to closer align with the goals and policies established in the 2040
Comprehensive Plan. This involved reducing off-street parking minimum requirements for
various uses based on a variety of factors:
• shared parking and mixed-use site capture,
• availability of on-street parking immediately adjacent to the site, and
• proximity to transit and the frequency of that transit service.
The update was based on national and metro area trends and local experience to adjust
formulas based on customer turnover, number of deliveries, number of employees on
maximum shift, etc. Even with these updates, the intent of the code language is to capture
parking needs in off-street facilities and minimize on-street parking “spillover”, recognizing and
accepting inevitable variability seasonally and within any land use category.
On-street parking is a shared resource
As part of the connected infrastructure systems discussions, the city council held a study
session on August 8, 2022, regarding public parking that included on-street parking specifically.
The discussion represented an important shift in policy direction: on-street parking is
considered a shared resource for anyone in the community to use and as a shared resource, the
city should not implement permit parking where there is not a demonstrated medical need.
Members of the public, which include residents, employees, patrons, and customers, should be
able to use on-street parking facilities throughout the city, regardless of location.

Title: Corridor parking policy
Limitations of current approach
Different uses have different parking requirements for the same building
The current zoning code language for parking standards has limitations that may conflict with
some of the city’s larger overall strategic priorities. For new businesses and organizations
looking to move to St. Louis Park, as well as existing entities looking to grow and expand,
parking minimums are often a major hurdle.
New businesses that otherwise are desirable for active neighborhood commercial areas are
prevented from locating in existing vacant storefronts because the existing parking does not
meet their use’s minimum requirement. This simultaneously contributes to preventing new
small businesses from establishing in St. Louis Park, while also extending the time storefronts
remain vacant. One recent example is the childcare business mentioned by Mayor Spano and
Councilmember Kraft in their study session topic proposal. There are many other recent
examples of businesses looking to move to empty storefronts along Minnetonka Boulevard and
Excelsior Boulevard but are prevented from doing so due to parking regulations. Small shopping
centers, such as those at Texa-Tonka or along Minnetonka Boulevard, are prevented from
adding more restaurants and cafes because parking requirements are high for those uses and
would cause spillover to on-street parking on local streets.
Limits growth of existing uses
Another limitation is that successful businesses or organizations can be limited in their capacity
to grow and expand in place because their current property cannot accommodate more
parking. This may stall growth, require entities to look to neighboring properties for more
parking facilities, or force them to relocate. In the last fifteen years, the restaurant Yum! has
been very successful at their location at 4000 Minnetonka Boulevard, to the extent that their
success caused increased on-street parking for the local streets on Glenhurst Avenue and
Sunset Boulevard. In a reaction to this, neighboring residents petitioned for on-street parking
be permit-only for residents on Glenhurst Avenue. Yum! Responded to their success and
customer parking demand by obtaining a neighboring commercial property, tearing down the
building, and utilizing the property solely for parking. Demolishing existing commercial buildings
and replacing them with surface parking lots does not accomplish city environmental priorities,
nor does it promote the creation of vibrant neighborhood commercial areas.
Space constraints
A parking lot takes up approximately 250-300 square feet per space with the drive aisles
included. Smaller neighborhood commercial sites are constrained. For example, the Bais Yisroel
Congregation located at Joppa Avenue and Sunset Boulevard, were deterred from expanding
their building or from converting a portion of their old school facilities into a dining area. Their
2,500 square feet expansion (1,700 square feet of dining) would have required 68 additional
parking stalls based on the parking formula of one additional parking space per each additional
25 square feet of dining space. Adding 1,700 square feet of dining area, would have required an
estimated 17,000 square feet of parking lot. Providing surface parking at a ratio of 10:1 for the
additional building was not feasible for the congregation and the lot essentially had no room for
more parking.
Special study session meeting of November 7, 2022 (Item No. 2) Page 6
Title: Corridor parking policy
An option the congregation explored was obtaining a neighboring house and demolishing it to
provide additional parking. Demolishing properties in existing neighborhoods to replace them
with parking facilities just to meet off-street parking requirements does not accomplish the
city’s strategic priority of creating neighborhood-oriented development. Ultimately, the
congregation decided not to move forward with any expansions but is still looking for other
options in the future.
Equity impacts
From an equity standpoint, how and where parking “spillover” prevention is enforced has been
inconsistent. Residential areas can petition to the city to get resident permit-only on-street
parking on the city streets. This means that areas with residents who have the access, time, and
resources to go through the city process may get the privilege of reserving the public on-street
parking spaces on their streets for themselves and their guests, while other residents who do
not have those resources do not get exclusive use of public on-street parking facilities.
Cost of off-street parking also adds to equity impacts. According to the Victoria Transport Policy
Institute1, surface parking lots typically cost between $4,000-$10,000 per surface parking space,
and between $24,000-$50,000 per structured parking space in 2022. These costs include the
price of land, materials, and labor to construct. The cost increases when regulations such as
landscaping, lighting, additional setbacks, stormwater management systems and environmental
cleanup are included. These add up quickly and become barriers for small businesses to starting
or expanding their business.
Environmental impacts:
Reducing the amount of off-street parking, or at least not requiring more off-street parking for
existing buildings, has environmental benefits as well. More parking means more impervious
surfaces that can impact stormwater runoff rates and ultimately water quality. Large areas of
blacktop also contribute to urban heat island effects. Dedicating less space to parking can also
provide an opportunity for more greenspace, plazas, or outdoor seating.
Present considerations
Given the direction of city council that on-street parking is public infrastructure and should be
available to all members of the community, it is logical to open local streets’ on-street parking
to businesses as well as residents. Shifting away from the present approach of parking
regulation will have impacts within the city. In areas where business and organization parking
spills over onto neighboring local streets, residents in those areas may express dissatisfaction
with the policy.
The shift would likely result in greater demand of the city’s on-street parking facilities and may
require more management and monitoring of on-street parking spaces. These could include
signing and managing areas with limited hours for parking.

Special study session meeting of November 7, 2022 (Item No. 2) Page 7
Title: Corridor parking policy
Other elements impacted by direction
Other city departments and practices may be impacted by a change to zoning parking standards
and should be considered holistically and systematically.
• Status of existing on-street permit parking areas (map of areas can be seen here)
• Connectivity of sidewalks to get from on-street parking spaces to businesses
• Customer loading/drop-off needs
• Snow removal
o On-street spaces aren’t available during a snow emergency
o Sidewalks and walkways connecting on-street spaces to business entrances
• EV charging station locations and requirements
• Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) accessible parking locations
• Enforcement of limited-hour on-street parking facilities
Staff recommendation
Staff suggests extending the approach adopted in the MX-2 neighborhood mixed use zoning
district to other parts of the city. Staff recommend applying this method to districts with
smaller lot standards, including C-1 neighborhood commercial, MX-1 vertical mixed-use and
MX-2 neighborhood mixed-use zoning districts, as seen in the attached map. We may also
explore this approach for non-residential uses in residential districts. This method allows
existing buildings to maintain their existing parking as-is, rather than require more spaces for
more intense uses. Only in the case of building expansion or new development would parking
minimums be applied (and only to those expanded areas). This approach would help alleviate
some of the barriers for small businesses and local storefronts, while still providing guidance for
off-street parking minimums in the city.
Next steps
If council agrees with city staff’s recommendation to allow public streets to serve more of the
commercial parking demand, including streets in neighboring residential areas, this topic can be
added to the planning commission’s overall work plan. Planning staff can work with other
departments to ensure a holistic approach to reduce and avoid unintended consequences for
public operations are evaluated. This topic may be added to the planning commission’s work
plan and eventually lead to recommendations for ordinance amendments to the zoning code as
it relates to parking standards. The goal will be to reduce minimum off-street parking
requirements in areas where those requirements serve as significant barriers to investment and
are not necessary to protect public health and safety or pedestrians, bicyclists, or motorists
using the facility.

Executive summary
Title: Amended and restated Subordination Agreement and Collateral Assignment and TBRA
loan documents for St. Louis Park AH I, LLLP (Real Estate Equities) – Ward 2
Recommended action:
• Motion to Adopt EDA Resolution approving a loan and a grant to St. Louis Park AH I,
LLLP; and authorizing the execution of documents in connection to the loan and grant
for the Arbor House affordable multifamily housing development.
Policy consideration: Does the EDA and council find that the proposed amendment to the
Subordination Agreement and Collateral Assignment of the Tax Increment Note and TBRA loan
documents conform to the Contract for Private Redevelopment with St. Louis Park AH I, LLLP?
Summary: On June 6, 2022, the EDA entered into a Contract for Private Redevelopment with St.
Louis Park AH I, LLLP related to its proposed Arbor House development and approved a
Subordination Agreement and Collateral Assignment of the Tax Increment Note in favor of the
lender, Cedar Rapids Bank and Trust Company. Due to increasing construction costs and rising
interest rates, the redeveloper received an additional allocation of conduit bonds for the
project. The city is scheduled to issue the additional bonds on November 7, 2022. This
additional bond allocation requires the Subordination Agreement and Collateral Assignment be
amended and restated. No substantive changes have been made to the document.
To help off-set clean-up costs for the Arbor House development, the EDA was also awarded a
Tax Base Revitalization (TBRA) grant from the Met Council in the amount of $184,000. The
Metropolitan Council allows the EDA to structure the grant assistance to the developer as a
loan so the developer can take advantage of federal and state low-income housing tax credit
programs for affordable housing. As the grant recipient, the EDA is asked to approve this
change. Converting the grant to a loan will not change the way the grant funds are distributed.
The EDA will continue to serve as a pass through for the funds and the funds may only be used
for grant-eligible clean-up activities.
The EDA’s legal counsel has reviewed the proposed amendments and loan documents and
recommends the EDA approve and consent to these documents, which are substantially similar
to previous subordination and assignment documents approved by the EDA in the past.
Financial or budget considerations: All costs associated with the preparation of the documents
(Kennedy & Graven) are to be paid by Real Estate Equities.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing a broad range of
housing and neighborhood oriented development.

EDA Resolution No. 22-____
Resolution approving a loan and a grant to St. Louis Park AH I, LLLP;
authorizing the execution of documents in connection therewith; and
taking other actions related thereto
Be it resolved by the Board of Commissioners (the “Board”) of the St. Louis Park
Economic Development Authority (the “Authority”) as follows:
Section 1. Recitals.
1.01. To facilitate the development of certain property within the City of St. Louis Park,
Minnesota (the “City”), the Authority, the City, and St. Louis Park AH I, LLLP, a Minnesota limited
liability limited partnership (the “Developer”), entered into a Contract for Private Development,
dated July 6, 2022 (the “Contract”), which provides for the construction by the Developer of an
approximately 114-unit rental housing facility with approximately 117 underground parking
stalls (the “Minimum Improvements”) on certain property legally described therein (the
“Development Property”).
1.02. To provide financing for the Minimum Improvements, on July 6, 2022, the City
provided a loan to the Developer from the City’s Affordable Housing Trust Fund in the principal
amount not to exceed $850,000 (the “City AHTF Loan”).
1.03. To provide additional financing for the Minimum Improvements, on July 6, 2022,
the City issued its Multifamily Housing Revenue Note (Arbor House Apartments), Series 2022
(the “Series 2022 Note”), in the original aggregate principal amount of $27,990,550, and loaned
the proceeds thereof to the Developer. The Series 2022 Note was purchased by Cedar Rapids
Bank and Trust Company, an Iowa banking corporation (the “Senior Lender”).
1.04. Pursuant to the Contract, the Authority agreed to reimburse the Developer for
certain qualified public development costs from tax increment revenue generated from
property within the Wooddale Ave Apartments (Real Estate Equities) Tax Increment Financing
District, a housing district within Redevelopment Project No. 1 in the City, to be evidenced by a Tax
Increment Revenue Note (the “TIF Note”) to be issued in a principal amount not to exceed
$940,000.
1.05. To provide additional financing for the Minimum Improvements, on the date
hereof the City Council will consider a resolution authorizing the issuance of its Multifamily
Housing Revenue Note (Arbor House Apartments), Series 2022B (the “Series 2022B Note,” and
together with the Series 2022 Note, the “Senior Financing”), in the original aggregate principal
amount of $1,000,000. The Senior Lender has agreed to purchase the Series 2022B Note.
1.06. In order to assist with the costs of the Minimum Improvements, the Authority,
on behalf of the Developer, applied for and received a Tax Base Revitalization Account (TBRA)
grant in the amount $184,300 (the “TBRA Grant”) from Metropolitan Council and an

Environmental Response Grant in the amount of $184,325 (the “ERF Grant”) from the
Environment and Energy Department of Hennepin County, Minnesota (the “County”).
1.07. Metropolitan Council and the Authority entered into a Metropolitan Livable
Communities Act Grant Agreement, effective as of October 20, 2022 (the “TBRA Grant
Agreement”). Proceeds of the TBRA Grant may be used for eligible project components of the
Minimum Improvements (the “TBRA Grant-Eligible Activities”) as described in the TBRA Grant
Agreement. The Authority intends to loan the proceeds of the TBRA Grant (the “TBRA Loan”) to
the Developer to provide financing for the TBRA Grant-Eligible Activities in accordance with a
Loan Agreement (the “TBRA Loan Agreement”) between the Authority and the Developer.
1.08. The Authority and the County entered into an Environmental Response Fund
Grant Agreement (Contract No. PR00004510) describing the use of the proceeds of the ERF
Grant. The Authority intends to provide the ERF Grant to the Developer in accordance with a
Sub-Grant Agreement (the “ERF Sub-Grant Agreement”) between the Authority and the
Developer.
1.09. To provide the Senior Financing, the Senior Lender requires that (i) the City and
the Authority subordinate their rights to, title to, and interest in the Development Property and
the rights and the remedies and options of the City and the Authority under the Contract to those
of the Senior Lender under the Senior Financing; (ii) the City agree to the subordination of the
repayment obligations of the Developer with respect to the AHTF Loan to those of the Senior
Financing; (iii) the City agree to the subordination of the repayment obligations of the
Developer with respect to the TBRA Loan be subordinate to the obligations with respect to the
Senior Financing; and (iv) the Authority consent to the collateral assignment of the Developer’s
interest in the TIF Note to the Senior Lender.
1.10. There have been presented before the Board forms of the following documents:
(i) the TBRA Loan Agreement; (ii) a Promissory Note to be delivered by the Developer to the
Authority to evidence the Developer’s repayment obligations with respect to the TBRA Loan;
(iii) a Combination Mortgage and Security Agreement to be delivered by the Developer to the
Authority to secure the Developer’s repayment obligations with respect to the TBRA Loan;
(iv) the ERF Sub-Grant Agreement; (v) an Amended and Restated Master Subordination
Agreement (the “Master Subordination Agreement”) between the Senior Lender, the City, and
the Authority, setting forth the terms of the subordination of the City’s and the Authority’s
rights to, title to, and interest in the Development Property, the Contract, and the repayment
obligations with respect to the AHTF Loan and the TBRA Loan; (vi) an Amended and Restated
Collateral Assignment of Interest in Tax Increment Revenue Note (the “Collateral Assignment of
TIF Note”) between the Developer and the Senior Lender and to be consented to by the
Authority, pursuant to which the Developer will assign its interest in the TIF Note to the Senior
Lender; and (vii) an Amended and Restated Master Loan Disbursement Agreement (the
“Master Loan Disbursement Agreement”) between the Developer, the Senior Lender, the City,
the Authority, and Guaranty Commercial Title, Inc., as disbursing agent, pursuant to which
proceeds of the Senior Financing, the AHTF Loan, the TBRA Loan, the ERF Grant, and taxable
loans provided by the Senior Lender to the Developer will be disbursed.

Executive summary
Title: 2022 Small Business Saturday proclamation
Recommended action: Mayor is asked to read the proclamation designating Saturday,
November 26, 2022 as Small Business Saturday.
Policy consideration: Not applicable.
Summary: Founded by American Express in 2010, Small Business Saturday has become an
annual day to celebrate and support local small businesses. The impetus for this special day is
to honor local small businesses for the many contributions they make in their communities and,
in return, encourage people to support their local businesses by shopping small during the post-
Thanksgiving weekend.
In 2021, it is estimated American shoppers spent over $23 billion at independent retailors
during Small Business Saturday. This money went directly into local economies. For every dollar
spent at a small business, approximately 69 cents stays in the community where the business is
located. By promoting Small Business Saturday, St. Louis Park continues its long standing
recognition of its local businesses and all they do to further enrich the economic and social
fabric of the community. It also helps raise awareness among local residents of the importance
of supporting independent businesses this Small Business Saturday and throughout the holiday
season.
In addition to this proclamation, this recogition will be promoted on the city’s website and
through social media.
Financial or budget considerations: Not applicable.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing a broad range of
housing and neighborhood oriented development.

Title: 2022 Small Business Saturday proclamation
Proclamation
“Small Business Saturday”
November 26, 2022
Whereas, St. Louis Park celebrates its local small businesses and the many contributions
they make to the local economy and community; and
Whereas, small businesses are the backbone of our state local economies. According to
the United States Small Business Administration, there are approximately 534,400 small
businesses in Minnesota, representing 46 percent of the working population, and employing 1.3
million people; and
Whereas, studies have consistently shown that supporting the growth of existing small
businesses produce the majority of economic growth in the community. On average for every
dollar spent at local small businesses 69 cents stays in the local community; and
Whereas, by shopping “small”, consumers make a big impact on their communities and
local small businesses. In 2021, american consumers reportedly spent a record $23 billion at
independent local businesses during Small Business Saturday; and
Whereas, St. Louis Park supports and recognizes its small, locally-owned businesses for
all they do to further enrich the economic and social fabric of their neighborhoods; and
Whereas, the people of St. Louis Park are grateful to the independent businesses of the
city for the many investments they make, the jobs they create and the generous contributions
they provide to further the quality of life we all enjoy.
Now therefore, let it be known that the Mayor and City Council of the City of St. Louis
Park do hereby proclaim November 26, 2022 to be Small Business Saturday in St. Louis Park.
Wherefore, I set my hand and cause the
Great Seal of the City of St. Louis Park to be
affixed this 7th day of November, 2022.

City council study session
St. Louis Park, Minnesota
Aug. 8, 2022
The meeting convened at 6:30 p.m.
Councilmembers present: Tim Brausen, Sue Budd, Mayor Pro Tem Lynette Dumalag, Nadia
Mohamed, and Margaret Rog
Councilmembers absent: Jake Spano, Larry Kraft
Staff present: City Manager (Ms. Keller), Engineering Director (Ms. Heiser), Engineering Project
Manager (Mr. Sullivan)
Guests: none
1. Sidewalk policy – draft
Ms. Heiser presented the report.
Councilmember Brausen asked about a map on average daily vehicle counts. He noted a few
areas in his ward that were excluded from Connect the Park and noted they were possibly on
the cusp. He stated he is interested in seeing data on this but is generally in support. He also
noted he has concerns on budget to pay for the sidewalk policy and is hesitant to add any new
spending that is not essential. He added he would be in favor of a study on this.
Councilmember Mohamed added she likes this policy but wants to know how much money
needs to go into the project. She stated that because of the structure of this with high and low
volume, continuous sidewalks, and which sidewalks qualify, it will be important to have clear
definitions available for constituents.
Councilmember Budd asked if the sidewalks in the capital improvement plan (CIP) are known.
Ms. Heiser stated currently staff does not have the exact locations of where sidewalks would be
proposed in the CIP, however, they can study that and bring the information back to council.
Councilmember Budd stated she likes the idea of a policy but asked if because of that, it will
involve extra cost. Ms. Heiser stated if a policy is proposed, from staff perspective, money
would be added to the CIP. She added if the 10-year CIP is looked at, and there is too much tree
impact, perhaps we wouldn’t build out the sidewalks, but at least the money would be in the
budget.
Councilmember Rog stated she supports greater clarity for residents and staff when looking at
all these iterations. She appreciates the draft policy and the staff report detailing two side, one
side additions, and added she supports the policy suggestions streamlining the program. She
asked if there is any more information on the financial impacts. Ms. Heiser stated that
information will come with the study.
City council meeting of November 7, 2022 (Item No. 3a) Page 2
Title: Study session minutes of August 8, 2022
Ms. Heiser stated if an additional million dollars is requested, bonds would be sold and then
paid back over 10 years. She stated costs would depend on where existing sidewalks are along
the street segments being reconstructed.
Councilmember Rog stated she is supportive of the policy and a study and noted she would also
like to see more opportunities to evaluate as the city continues to add things, and what
tradeoffs might be made over time. She stated strategically this will be good to look at going
forward to identify tax revenues sources to pay for them.
Mayor Pro Tem Dumalag agreed and indicated she is also supportive of this and in favor of a
more consistent process. She stated for staff planning, this is a worthwhile exercise, while
adding budget considerations will also be important to review.
Ms. Heiser stated staff will review the CIP to identify sidewalk segments, create cost estimates
and come back to council with the policy and updates before adding the sidewalks to the CIP.
2. Public parking
Ms. Heiser presented the report. She noted there are 3 options for council to review, it will cost
approximately $1.3 million to re-construct all the lots proposed. She noted assessments were
used to construct the lots. She also noted that franchise fees could be used for the
reconstruction. She added doing an overall study to see if parking lots are still needed or if on-
street parking is better could also be done, similarly to what was done in the Historic Walker
Lake area. Ms. Heiser stated staff’s recommendation is to complete a study of the 4 lots in
question, which would cost $50,000.
Councilmember Rog stated she will need to look at this further. She asked how public parking is
defined relative to municipal lots. Ms. Heiser stated if it is city-owned, maintained, and
managed, including snow removal and repairs, then it is a municipal lot.
Councilmember Rog asked if business owners can restrict parking to customers that use their
businesses only. Ms. Heiser stated they are not supposed to be, but she believes some may
have done this. Councilmember Rog asked if those business owners are paying an assessment.
Ms. Heiser stated not at this time and added that no assessment has been paid since 1964,
when the lots were built. She added that in 2019, assessments were discussed to fund
reconstruction.
Councilmember Rog asked what the typical cost is to a business owner on an annual basis. Ms.
Heiser stated she would have to investigate this further. She added an assessment would be
over 10 – 15 years, depending on what council decides.
Councilmember Rog asked about restricting parking for restaurant pick up and wondered how
this can be included into the conversation. Ms. Heiser stated staff did not discuss timed parking,
but in some areas, it might make sense, although it is enforced only through complaints.
Councilmember Rog asked about metered parking. Ms. Heiser stated that has not been
discussed and there are costs involved.
City council meeting of November 7, 2022 (Item No. 3a) Page 3
Title: Study session minutes of August 8, 2022
Councilmember Rog stated the costs here and sidewalks costs are great examples of when
council must choose, and if she had to choose, she would choose sidewalks.
Councilmember Budd asked about municipal lot examples. Ms. Heiser described the municipal
lots adjacent to the businesses along Lake Street across the street from the stadium. These
businesses are surrounded by municipal lots that are on public property, with an alley behind
them. Ms. Heiser added a benefit of the study will show that the municipal lots are needed,
before they are redone.
Councilmember Mohamed stated she is interested in doing the study.
Councilmember Brausen asked if the city will ask the property owners if they are willing to
continue to pay an assessment. Ms. Heiser stated none of the existing owners have ever paid
assessments. She added a public process could be held but doing a study first will be beneficial.
Councilmember Brausen stated he is in favor of doing the study and asked if a phone survey of
the business owners might be worthwhile to ask if the continuation of a municipal lot would be
something they would like to pay for through an assessment, noting the answer will most likely
be no from most business owners. He added he is not interested in paying for public parking for
private business owners either, so if it is needed, the city will need to work with business
owners to find a solution.
Mayor Pro Tem Dumalag stated she is in favor of a study and sees this as future land use if the
council decides certain lots are no longer needed. She stated the study could help to show if
parking is needed, and then obligations for the costs of maintaining the lots.
Councilmember Budd added she also would support the study.
Ms. Heiser stated the $50,000 for the study is not in the current budget but is a part of the 2023
budget request.
Councilmember Rog asked what the city will specifically get from doing the study. Mr. Sullivan
stated for the four lots, they will look at utilization, what times of day they are utilized, and who
is using the lots. He added there might be synergy in uses and shared spaces throughout
portions of the day. He stated some of these lots are on parcels of land that could be sold or
could have other uses, and some are on city right-of-way.
Councilmember Rog asked how long information from the study would be considered valid.
Mr. Sullivan stated we would use the consultant’s judgement on duration and residential versus
commercial areas. He stated it would also depend on the surrounding land use.
Councilmember Budd asked if the study would look at the Mexico City business lot in the
Historic Walker Lake area. Ms. Heiser stated the lot in that area has already been looked at for
utilization.
Councilmember Rog asked if staff has any theories on utilization yet. Ms. Heiser stated she has
seen the lots are highly utilized, except for the park and ride, but available off-street parking
has not been looked at by staff.

Title: Study session minutes of August 8, 2022
Ms. Heiser stated staff will do the study and then come back before the 2024 budget process;
however, noted this may not be back to council for 6 months.
Communications/meeting check-in (verbal)
Ms. Keller reminded residents to get out and vote tomorrow, Aug. 9, 2022, and noted voters
should double check that they know where their polling place is located since some changes
were made during the redistricting process.
Councilmember Budd noted the book festival at the St. Louis Park High School going on today,
featuring free books, with today August 8 being the kickoff day.
The meeting adjourned at 7:33 p.m.

Director (Ms. Heiser), Engineering Project Manager (Mr. Sullivan), Communications and
Technology Director (Ms. Smith)
Guests:
1. Traffic control policy
Mr. Sullivan noted the traffic control policy considerations:
• Should traffic control be established based on micro/localized priorities, or should it be
approached as a system?
• Should the traffic control policy be updated to better achieve equitable outcomes?
• Does the city council want to approach traffic control/traffic safety in a more proactive
way?
Councilmember Rog asked about the history of speed bumps and why the cost is assessed to
property owners in the traffic control policy. Ms. Heiser stated in 1999 the policy was
established, and it specifically notes assessing property owners for traffic calming measures
including speed bumps. She noted most cities that have traffic calming programs typically
assess adjacent properties for them.
Councilmember Kraft asked if other cities have a petition process. Ms. Heiser stated St. Louis
Park is unique in having a petition process in place and noted other cities do not.
Councilmember Kraft stated this seems a bit inconsistent. Ms. Heiser stated petitions can have
implications as well, noting increased annual gas and CO2 due to the installation of stop signs.
Mr. Sullivan stated staff noticed that some hyper local decisions could affect the rest of the
community.
Councilmember Rog added that council can choose to not approve petitions. Ms. Heiser agreed.
Councilmember Rog stated she understands the inequities in the process but is still supportive
of the petition process.
City council meeting of November 7, 2022 (Item No. 3b) Page 2
Title: Study session minutes of September 6, 2022
Councilmember Rog stated it seems parking does not fall into traffic management. Ms. Heiser
stated any sign installed is a regulatory sign and approved by council, including parking signage.
Ms. Heiser noted option one is to update the traffic control policy and option two would
explore a systems approach to traffic control.
Councilmember Dumalag stated she is grateful there is a process to petition for traffic controls
and she would agree most with option two as there can be issues with the existing policy.
Councilmember Rog stated people who live in certain areas do have their eyes to the ground,
and sometimes engineering solutions don’t always match, which she is mindful of. She added
people liked that they felt empowered with the petition process.
Councilmember Rog stated if council moves ahead with option two, what happens to requests
currently in the pipeline. Ms. Heiser stated any requests in process will be reviewed, but if
petitions have not been received as of now, they won’t be processed.
Councilmember Rog added reducing fatalities and crashes were referred to and noted there are
few in the city each year. She stated feelings of safety for bikers and walkers should also be
measures of success for traffic management. She supported option two with the caveats she
noted.
Councilmember Mohamed stated she would like to see a combination of the policy and the
systems approach. She added she likes the petition request and empowering neighborhoods
with that option.
Councilmember Kraft asked what the goal of the current policy is. Ms. Heiser stated that the
goals from the 1999 policy are to provide fair and uniform treatment of all requests for traffic
control.
Councilmember Kraft stated this is not about outcomes, but about process. He is also in favor of
option two and would like to further discuss the goals of the process, including safety for
pedestrians. He noted the data should be changing over time for the better and asked why
people ask for stop signs.
Mr. Sullivan stated there is a perception that they can be a speed management tool, but they
do not slow down vehicles except right at the intersection. He noted there is a belief that
vehicle behavior eats away at the safety of a neighborhood.
Councilmember Kraft added parking should be separate.
Mayor Pro Tem Brausen agreed with option two as well. He appreciated the data presented by
staff and added the breakdown on stop sign compliance is terrible with only 27% coming to a
complete stop. He added if folks are worried about speed in neighborhoods, people need to
talk to their neighbors. He agreed that safety is the primary focus here and is supportive of
City council meeting of November 7, 2022 (Item No. 3b) Page 3
Title: Study session minutes of September 6, 2022
option two. He also pointed out the cost to staff time and working with the traffic committee is
notable.
Ms. Heiser stated staff will look at the systems approach to traffic control and notify residents
of this as well. She added staff will also work on goals and bring back further information to the
council in the future.
Councilmember Rog added other goals that council agrees on should be included as well. Ms.
Heiser agreed and stated there will be a foundation to the process and that can be built on.
2. Traffic management program
Ms. Heiser stated the policy question here is: Does council want to develop a city-funded
standalone traffic management program.
Councilmember Rog asked about areas to focus on or study, noting this feels like the traffic
policy that was just discussed. Ms. Heiser stated this could be a standalone policy, not
dependent on the policy just discussed, since that policy did not address traffic management.
Councilmember Rog added this policy question could also just be a tool of the process. Ms.
Heiser added data, input from the community and other questions and goals could be used to
develop the traffic control systems policy development.
Councilmember Kraft stated he would be more interested in aggressive traffic calming,
especially on bike routes or residential streets.
Councilmember Rog asked what the main tasks were for the Fernhill Roundabout study. Ms.
Heiser stated the public process took most of the time. She added working through the data
and working with the consultant are the other tasks. She stated these are figured in to the 300
hours of staff time to do a study.
Councilmember Dumalag stated messaging and being clear on outcomes will be important.
Mayor Pro Tem Brausen added a standalone traffic management program should be considered
as a part of the process. Ms. Heiser noted that staff would be working on developing a systems
approach to traffic control throughout the whole of 2023.
Councilmember Mohamed agreed the traffic management program should be a tool used
within the full process.
Ms. Keller stated developing a systems approach bundle can be done, and then cost can be
determined along with funding.
Communications/meeting check-in (verbal)
Councilmember Rog referenced the streetlights written report, noting the report does not
adhere to items discussed previously, as far as neutral approaches. She stated some things in
City council meeting of November 7, 2022 (Item No. 3b) Page 4
Title: Study session minutes of September 6, 2022
the policy seemed discretionary versus systemic. She also pointed out streetlights for
pedestrians should be increased, especially in the winter. She asked if this topic should be
included in an overarching safety study.
Councilmember Rog asked if someone does not want a streetlight in front of their property in
the right-of-way, can they refuse it through petition. She also asked about the cost for
pedestrian streetlights, noting it’s quite high. She asked if there are more affordable products,
as well as solar options, and if streetlights can be folded into the systems discussion.
Ms. Heiser noted that since they are shorter, there would be twice as many pedestrian lights
versus streetlights installed along a street, which is why there is a higher cost. She added there
can be more conversation around this as it relates to safety, and she can see if this makes sense
to incorporate into the action plan.
Ms. Keller proposed if there is a natural place to incorporate this topic into the action plan, staff
will do that, but more likely this will be a standalone conversation.
The meeting adjourned at 9:00 p.m.

Executive summary
Title: Aquila Elementary Parent Teacher Organization temporary signs in public right-of-way
Recommended action: Motion to adopt Resolution authorizing an annual sign permit
authorizing the Aquila Elementary Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) to place temporary signs
within the public right-of-way for its annual fundraiser.
Policy consideration: None.
Summary: The Aquila Elementary PTO requests permission to install temporary signs in the
public right-of-way for their annual fundraiser, Aquila Give$.
Section 36-362(e)(2) of the zoning code states that prohibited signs include, “Signs on or over
the public right-of-way unless the council grants permission for a temporary sign on or over the
public right-of-way for a period not to exceed ten days.”
The Aquila Elementary PTO is a non-profit volunteer organization whose mission is to enhance
the education experience of all Aquila students, families, and staff through fundraising and
volunteer opportunities. The requested signs advertise the Aquila Give$ fundraiser to be held
generally within the first two weeks of November. This activity is a direct donation fund raiser
for services and resources provided to the students, staff, and families of Aquila Elementary
School. The request is to install yard style signs at nine locations and one vinyl banner as early
as November 1st each year.
Staff was unable to schedule the request for a council meeting in time for the 2022 fundraiser,
so they will alter this year’s sign plan to install a banner on the school property along
Minnetonka Blvd and install the yard signs on parents’ property that have students enrolled in
the school. The request before you today is to allow the signs in the public right-of-way at the
requested locations for the following years beginning November of 2023.
If approved, the attached Resolution would authorize an annual sign permit to place signs
within the public right-of-way for the fundraiser. The approval would be for an annual permit so
the Aquila Elementary PTO would not have to apply to the council each year.
Financial or budget considerations: None.
Strategic priority consideration: Not applicable.

Resolution approving the Aquila Elementary Parent Teacher Organization’s
application for placement of temporary signs within public right-of-way
Whereas, The Aquila Elementary Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) applied for the
placement of nine temporary yard signs and one vinyl sign for nine days beginning November 1,
2023.
Whereas, pursuant to Section 36-362(e)(2) of the St. Louis Park Zoning Ordinance, the
City Council may approve the placement of temporary signs within the public right-of-way for a
period not to exceed 10 days.
Now, therefore, be it resolved by the City Council of the City of St. Louis Park,
Minnesota, that the City Council approves the Aquila Elementary School PTO’s application for
the placement of nine temporary yard signs and one vinyl sign within the public right-of-way for
their annual Aquila Give$ fundraiser campaign held in November of each year.
Be it further resolved by the City Council of the City of St. Louis Park, Minnesota, that
the staff may annually administratively approve a permit for the Aquila Elementary PTO annual
fundraiser provided that the request for signage is substantially similar to the current request
and until such time that the annual permit is rescinded by the City Council.
Be it further resolved that the size and placement of the nine temporary yard signs and
one vinyl sign are approved as described in the attached letter (Exhibit A).

Title: Special assessment – sewer service line repair at 3945 Kipling Avenue South
Recommended action: Motion to adopt a resolution authorizing a special assessment for the
repair of the sewer service line at 3945 Kipling Avenue South, St. Louis Park, MN.
P.I.D. 07-028-24-12-0158.
Policy consideration: The proposed action is consistent with policy previously established by
the city council.
Summary: Sarah Akin, owner of the single-family residence at 3945 Kipling Avenue South, has
requested the city authorize the repair of the sewer service line for his/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 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 property owners may face financial hardships when emergency repairs like this
are unexpectedly required. Plans and permits for this service line repair work were completed,
submitted, and approved by city staff. The property owner hired a contractor and repaired the 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 is $3,028.50.
Financial or budget considerations: The city has funds in place to finance the cost of this special
assessment.
Strategic priority consideration: Not applicable.

Park AH I, LLLP (Real Estate Equities) – Ward 2
Recommended action: Motion to Adopt a Resolution to amend and restate the Subordination
Agreement and Collateral Assignment of the Tax Increment Note and Redevelopment
Agreement in connection with the Contract for Private Redevelopment with St. Louis Park AH I,
LLLP for the Arbor House affordable multifamily housing development.
Policy consideration: Does the council find that the proposed amendment to the Subordination
Agreement and Collateral Assignment of the Tax Increment Note conform to the Contract for
Private Redevelopment with St. Louis Park AH I, LLLP?
Summary: On June 6, 2022, the EDA entered into a Contract for Private Redevelopment with St.
Louis Park AH I, LLLP related to its proposed Arbor House development and approved a
Subordination Agreement and Collateral Assignment of the Tax Increment Note in favor of the
lender, Cedar Rapids Bank and Trust Company. Due to increasing construction costs and rising
interest rates, the redeveloper received an additional allocation of conduit bonds for the
project. The city is scheduled to issue the additional bonds on November 7. This additional
bond allocation requires the Subordination Agreement and Collateral Assignment be amended
and restated. No substantive changes have been made to the document.
The city’s legal counsel has reviewed the proposed amendments and loan documents and
recommends the council approve and consent to these documents, which are substantially
similar to previous subordination and assignment documents approved by the EDA and city in
the past.
Financial or budget considerations: All costs associated with the preparation of the documents
(Kennedy & Graven) are to be paid by Real Estate Equities.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing a broad range of
housing and neighborhood oriented development.

Resolution No. 22-___
Resolution authorizing the execution of documents in connection
with a loan provided to St. Louis Park AH I, LLLP
Be it resolved by the City Council (the “City Council”) of the City of St. Louis Park,
Minnesota (the “City”) as follows:
Section 1. Recitals.
1.01. To facilitate the development of certain property within the City, the St. Louis Park
Economic Development Authority (the “Authority”), the City, and St. Louis Park AH I, LLLP, a
Minnesota limited liability limited partnership (the “Developer”), entered into a Contract for
Private Development, dated July 6, 2022 (the “Contract”), which provides for the construction
by the Developer of an approximately 114-unit rental housing facility with approximately 117
underground parking stalls (the “Minimum Improvements”) on certain property legally
described therein (the “Development Property”).
1.02. To provide financing for the Minimum Improvements, on July 6, 2022, the City
provided a loan to the Developer from the City’s Affordable Housing Trust Fund in the principal

1.03. To provide additional financing for the Minimum Improvements, on July 6, 2022,
the City issued its Multifamily Housing Revenue Note (Arbor House Apartments), Series 2022

the proceeds thereof to the Developer. The Series 2022 Note was purchased by Cedar Rapids
Bank and Trust Company, an Iowa banking corporation (the “Senior Lender”).
1.04. Pursuant to the Contract, the Authority agreed to reimburse the Developer for
certain qualified public development costs from tax increment revenue generated from
property within the Wooddale Ave Apartments (Real Estate Equities) Tax Increment Financing
District, a housing district within Redevelopment Project No. 1 in the City, to be evidenced by a Tax
Increment Revenue Note (the “TIF Note”) to be issued in a principal amount not to exceed
$940,000.
1.05. To provide additional financing for the Minimum Improvements, on the date

amount of $1,000,000. The Senior Lender has agreed to purchase the Series 2022B Note.
1.06. In order to assist with the costs of the Minimum Improvements, the Authority,
on behalf of the Developer, applied for and received a Tax Base Revitalization Account (TBRA)
grant in the amount $184,300 (the “TBRA Grant”) from Metropolitan Council and an
City council meeting of November 7, 2022 (Item No. 4d) Page 3
Title: Amended and restated Subordination Agreement and Collateral Assignment for St. Louis Park AH I, LLLP (Real

Environmental Response Grant in the amount of $184,325 (the “ERF Grant”) from the
Environment and Energy Department of Hennepin County, Minnesota (the “County”).
1.07. Metropolitan Council and the Authority entered into a Metropolitan Livable

Agreement”). Proceeds of the TBRA Grant may be used for eligible project components of the
Minimum Improvements (the “TBRA Grant-Eligible Activities”) as described in the TBRA Grant
Agreement. The Authority intends to loan the proceeds of the TBRA Grant (the “TBRA Loan”) to
the Developer to provide financing for the TBRA Grant-Eligible Activities in accordance with a
Loan Agreement (the “TBRA Loan Agreement”) between the Authority and the Developer.
1.08. The Authority and the County entered into an Environmental Response Fund
Grant Agreement (Contract No. PR00004510) describing the use of the proceeds of the ERF
Grant. The Authority intends to provide the ERF Grant to the Developer in accordance with a
Sub-Grant Agreement (the “ERF Sub-Grant Agreement”) between the Authority and the
Developer.
1.09. To provide the Senior Financing, the Senior Lender requires that (i) the City and
the Authority subordinate their rights to, title to, and interest in the Development Property and
the rights and the remedies and options of the City and the Authority under the Contract to those
of the Senior Lender under the Senior Financing; (ii) the City agree to the subordination of the
repayment obligations of the Developer with respect to the AHTF Loan to those of the Senior
Financing; (iii) the City agree to the subordination of the repayment obligations of the
Developer with respect to the TBRA Loan be subordinate to the obligations with respect to the
Senior Financing; and (iv) the Authority consent to the collateral assignment of the Developer’s
interest in the TIF Note to the Senior Lender.
1.10. There have been presented before the City Council forms of the following
documents: (i) the TBRA Loan Agreement; (ii) a Promissory Note to be delivered by the
Developer to the Authority to evidence the Developer’s repayment obligations with respect to
the TBRA Loan; (iii) a Combination Mortgage and Security Agreement to be delivered by the
Developer to the Authority to secure the Developer’s repayment obligations with respect to the
TBRA Loan; (iv) the ERF Sub-Grant Agreement; (v) an Amended and Restated Master
Subordination Agreement (the “Master Subordination Agreement”) between the Senior Lender,

repayment obligations with respect to the AHTF Loan and the TBRA Loan; (vi) an Amended and
Restated Collateral Assignment of Interest in Tax Increment Revenue Note (the “Collateral
Assignment of TIF Note”) between the Developer and the Senior Lender and to be consented to
by the Authority, pursuant to which the Developer will assign its interest in the TIF Note to the

Executive summary
Title: Assessment of delinquent charges
Recommended action: Motion to adopt Resolution to assess delinquent citation charges against
the benefiting property.
Policy consideration: Does the city council wish to follow our established special assessment
process to collect outstanding fees and charges?
Summary: The city certifies delinquent balances to Hennepin County in order to collect on these
accounts. The certification is done via special assessment process and becomes a lien on the
individual property, due over the next year or several years, depending upon the type of charge.
Delinquent charges include water, sewer, storm water, refuse, abatement of tree removals, tree
pruning, false alarms, mowing, and citations against the benefiting property. To help reduce the
number of accounts that get certified, city staff work with residents and businesses during the
certification process and throughout the year to resolve their outstanding balances by sending
notices, answering questions, and providing information to residents on where they can find
energy assistance payment programs to help reduce the balance of their delinquent account.
On Oct. 17, 2022, city council held a public hearing to solicit public comments regarding special
assessment balances. At that point there were 740 delinquent utility accounts along with 154
additional delinquent invoices for non-utility-related balances. No residents or businesses contested
their delinquent charges during meeting.
As of Oct. 28, 2022, the total delinquent balance was $511,358, which includes administrative fees
and penalties. Here is a comparison of the final certification amounts for the past five years:

2018 579 $546,948 75 $11,817 654 $558,765
Next steps: If approved, the charges and fees outlined above will be certified to Hennepin
County for collection as part of the owner’s property tax bill.
Financial or budget considerations: Collection of these charges is vital to the financial stability of
the City’s utility systems and to reimburse the City for expenses incurred in providing services.

Executive summary
Title: Resolution authorizing the issuance of additional multifamily housing revenue note for St.
Louis Park AH I, LLLP
Recommended action: Mayor to open the public hearing, take public testimony, and close
public hearing. Motion to adopt Resoluiton for AH I, LLLP regarding the issuance of additional
multifamily housing revenue note; approving an amended and restated housing program; and
authorizing the execution of related documents.
Policy consideration: Does the city council wish to consider the issuance of additional
multifamily housing revenue notes; approving an amended and restated housing program; and
authorizing the execution of related documents.
Summary: AH I LLLP requested multifamily housing revenue bonds to finance a portion of its
affordable housing project proposed to be constructed at 3801 Wooddale Avenue South. The
bonds will help finance construction of an 114 unit multifamily rental housing building and
facilities functionally related, to be located in the city for occupancy by individuals and families
of low and moderate income. This was approved on May 16, 2022, by the City Council.
On July 6, 2022, the city issued one series of tax-exempt notes in the principal amount of
$27,990,500. The city acts as a conduit for the housing bonds from Minnesota Management
and Budget. The borrower has notified the city that they require additional tax-exempt funds in
the approximate amount of $1,000,000. On August 15, 2022, the city received Certificate of
Allocation No. 435 from the Minnesota Department of Management and Budget allocating
bonding authority to the city in the amount of $1,000,000 from the State, pursuant to the
Allocation Act.
In accordance with the Housing Act, the city has prepared an amended and restated housing
program (the “Housing Program”) to authorize the issuance by the city of the Series 2022 Note
to provide additional financing for the project, and the Housing Program was prepared and
submitted to Metropolitan Council for its review and comment.
Financial or budget considerations: Issuance of these bonds will not impact the city’s debt
capacity, would not constitute a general or moral obligation of the city, and would not be
secured by the taxing powers of the city or any assets or property of the city. In addition, if the
financing goes forward, Beltline Station LP will pay an administration fee in the amount of 1% of
the outstanding principal of the bonds.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing a broad range of
housing and neighborhood oriented development.
