Policy consideration: Does the Economic Development Authority want to amend the bylaws so the order of business is consistent with the order of business at city council meetings? Summary: The bylaws of the St. Louis Park Economic Development Authority were originally adopted in 1998 and have been amended in 2006 and 2019. The bylaws provide guidelines for the structure, duties, and conduct of business by the Economic Development Authority. Amendments to the bylaws require approval of at least four members of the EDA at a regular or a special meeting. In Dec. 2022 the city council approved amendments to their rules of procedure, including minor changes to the order of business at meetings. The changes reflected the council’s desire to provide ways for all stakeholders to better understand how the body conducts business. At that time staff also heard a desire to have the order of business at EDA meetings more closely match that of council meetings. The proposed amendments to section 4.5 of the EDA bylaws reflect that direction. If approved, the proposed changes would take effect for the March 20, 2023, EDA meeting. Financial or budget considerations: N/A Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to creating opportunities to build social capital through community engagement.

Inclusionary housing policy proposed amendments. Ms. Olson presented the staff report. Councilmember Rog asked if the developer would need to replace one for one on a building that is naturally occurring affordable housing at 60%. Ms. Barton stated yes, or they could go lower, but not higher. Ms. Olson noted the policy recommendations and asked the council to weigh in with their thoughts. • Modify the for-sale property requirements. • Increase the affordability period to 26 years. • Add flexibility around the development mix for senior housing developments. • Provide additional clarity in the policy. Councilmember Kraft asked for an explanation on affordability pricing. Ms. Olson explained on a $350,000 affordability priced home, if pricing is below $750,000, the difference is considered minus the $350,000 and that is then the price used, which is the difference between the affordable price and the price the home is being sold for. She noted if the average for-sale price exceeded the affordability, it would be capped. She added this is for a new 10 or more-unit development. City council meeting of March 6, 2023 (Item No. 4a) Page 2 Title: Study session minutes of Nov. 14, 2022 Ms. Olson stated the reason payment in lieu is used, is the unit would have to be sold at an affordable rate to a low-income buyer, and the money then goes into the affordable housing trust fund for other uses. Councilmember Kraft asked how often this scenario happens. Ms. Olson stated it has not happened yet, noting clarity about co-ops falling under the for-sale properties has been an issue. Ms. Barton stated the insurance requirements are for 10 years in a condo development, and usually developers do not want to do this. She added this was a deterrent to developers. Ms. Barton stated staff is hopeful the policy will help over time on condo development. Mayor Spano asked for a hypothetical situation on the for-sale policy. He also asked for the criteria on item #3 policy recommendation. Ms. Olson stated for the senior policy change, staff is open to two-bedroom, but it would not be required. Mayor Spano stated he would like criteria on this issue. Ms. Olson stated staff would want to have this conversation with developers at the beginning related to affordability and market rate, and which units would be affordable. Ms. Barton added affordable for seniors is mostly one bedroom and den. Councilmember Rog asked if there should be more conversation around the Beltline development. Ms. Barton stated all the affordable units at Beltline are in one building. She added the other development has affordability spread across the entire development. Councilmember Kraft asked if this would only be worked on at the front end or later. Ms. Barton stated this policy would give more flexibility for discussion at the beginning or later. Councilmember Kraft asked if TIF would be affected and the affordability level. Ms. Barton stated there is a look back provision, and if there is overperformance, then the city can recoup dollars. Mayor Spano stated he is supportive, but if staff will have authority to be flexible, he would like some clarity around the policy before agreeing to it, noting this is a substantial change. Councilmember Dumalag asked if there is any reason there have been issues with senior affordable housing. Ms. Randall stated the asset piece in the calculation with the two bedroom and with two people. Councilmember Rog asked if there is value in looking at the affordability levels the city is setting and if this is a barrier. Councilmember Rog added when looking at multi-generational housing, those living together may exceed the income levels as well. Ms. Olson stated in the policy it says that 50% must accept vouchers. City council meeting of March 6, 2023 (Item No. 4a) Page 3 Title: Study session minutes of Nov. 14, 2022 Ms. Barton added the study will also give insight as to the senior population, and affordability levels. Councilmember Kraft stated he is supportive but would like to see more guidelines from a fairness perspective, but also likes the flexibility and then would like staff to come back with policy changes. Mayor Spano added this would give him more comfort. Councilmember Dumalag agreed the flexibility is appreciated and she is supportive of the for- sale policy. Councilmember Mohamed asked how staff can investigate AMI without increasing numbers. Ms. Olson stated if a development is proposed staff looks at goals and what are the community needs, and then direct from that way. She added the affordable housing trust fund will also assist. Councilmember Mohamed stated some of the two-bedrooms are in the $200,000 range. She asked how the city and staff can encourage 30% AMI, adding she would love to see more of this. Ms. Olson stated that is a goal staff is working toward. Councilmember Mohamed asked about adding more townhomes in the city that are affordable. Ms. Barton stated townhomes are more challenging as the city is all developed and it’s more difficult for developers to find land for 10 townhomes versus 60-unit apartment buildings. She added the Sherman development has walk out first floor units, which are similar to townhomes. Councilmember Mohamed stated there are some families that are missing, including larger families with low income. She stated to find an apartment at 30% AMI is rare, and she would like to see more of that. Councilmember Kraft commended staff on the affordable housing as well as Councilmember Rog on pushing for 3-bedroom units. He stated the policy changes are making a difference. He stated the goals have been smashed for 50% AMI, and we are on track for 30% AMI for 2030. He asked why the inclusionary housing policy is then not changed to 30% AMI at this point. Ms. Barton stated it’s possible to change this, but it would be difficult for developers as financially it won’t work for them. Councilmember Dumalag agreed, noting this is not a one-for-one issue. Ms. Barton added the policy as is allows more flexibility, while staff is pushing for more 30% AMI, and there will be more coming up. She added changing the policy to focus only on 30% AMI would tie staff’s hands and would be difficult for developers. Councilmember Mohamed asked what the criteria was for coming up with these numbers of AMI. Ms. Olson stated if council wants significant changes, a feasibility study should be conducted so all the economic impacts can be determined. City council meeting of March 6, 2023 (Item No. 4a) Page 4 Title: Study session minutes of Nov. 14, 2022 Councilmember Kraft stated he would be interested in a feasibility study to address the 30% AMI and target the largest gap. Mayor Spano stated this should be tabled for now, and this can come back for more discussion. He noted this needs to be a regional initiative. Councilmember Rog added disability housing is also a concern and she has had folks reach out to her on this. She asked if this can be added to inclusionary housing for folks that don’t fall into the traditional ADA requirements and need adaptive and affordable places to live. Mr. Skallet explained the ADA requirements and adaptability and accessibility. He noted ADA units are equally dispersed on each floor, adding he can get more details to the council if needed. Ms. Barton added there is no one size fits all with accessibility, and the ADA does a good job of covering the broadest access, but there are different needs for individuals, so it’s difficult to build multiple accessible units. 2. 2023 final proposed budget and tax levies Ms. Schmitt presented the report. She noted the policy considerations for tonight: • The 2023 final property tax levy at $41,060,251 - which is a 7.02% increase over the 2022 final property tax levy. • A maximum HRA levy allowed by state statue at $1,582,696. • An EDA levy at $500,000. Councilmember Kraft stated he has no issue with the general levy adding staff has done a good job. He noted debt service is going up a lot, many are feeling the pain of inflation, and the education levies will be increasing 28%, so this puts more responsibility on the city. He asked about the EDA levy and what the projected balances are for this and next year. He added the development fund has been going down, some investments have been made, and he asked for the projections. Ms. Schmitt stated it will depend on whether the land sale goes through and if it does, it’s projected to be $13 million in the fund balance. She added if the land sale does not go through, the fund balance for the EDA levy will remain at $7 million. Councilmember Kraft asked if there are any updates on the land sale. Ms. Schmitt stated she is not aware of any updates. She added for next year, there are some sales projected and if the commercial property is completed, then the fund balance would go down. Councilmember Kraft asked about assumptions. Ms. Schmitt stated the variables are the property sales and the commercial building. Ms. Keller clarified the fund balance could be between $4.5 million and $13 million depending on the assumptions Ms. Schmitt noted. City council meeting of March 6, 2023 (Item No. 4a) Page 5 Title: Study session minutes of Nov. 14, 2022 Councilmember Kraft stated the assets should turn into funds at some point. He asked how long the $4.5 million would last if it were only used for salaries. Ms. Schmitt stated 5-6 years. Councilmember Kraft stated it is not responsible of the city to move forward with the EDA levy, adding the city does not need that money this year, especially when we have assets that will turn into dollars. Mayor Spano stated the city has done this and should continue to utilize this fund to allow for purchasing properties if they are available. He stated he disagrees with Councilmember Kraft’s comments, and feels the EDA levy should continue, noting it’s not only used to pay salaries. Ms. Barton noted beyond salaries there are other programs funded through the development fund, as well as various studies. Councilmember Rog stated she agrees with Councilmember Kraft on his comments and would like to take a pause this year considering inflation, adding this can be added back next year if needed. She noted this fund is not in perpetuity, which was a good agreement, and each year council should review and consider the impacts. She stated there will be plenty of funds available, and this should be paused for 2023. Mayor Spano stated he supports the EDA levy, because there are more guardrails on what it can be spent on, freeing up more funding from the general levy. Councilmember Kraft noted his concerns about the transparency of the EDA levy has been addressed by staff, however he does not agree with adding $500,000 to the development fund this year, given everything else that is going on. Councilmember Dumalag asked if the $500,000 were taken away, what would be the cumulative effect. Ms. Schmitt stated it would go down to 5.6%. Councilmember Mohamed asked what the EDA levy might look like next year. Ms. Schmitt stated if the economy were in a better position, she would recommend an increase versus leaving it flat. Councilmember Mohamed asked if it puts the city in a risky position if there is no EDA levy this year. Ms. Schmitt stated she agrees with refining the dollar amount and coming back to council, but she does not think the EDA levy should be removed. Councilmember Mohamed stated she agrees with staff recommendations and the risks of next year are unknown, adding she does not think the council should ask staff to shave off the amounts, adding she would prefer having options going into the next few years. Councilmember Rog asked if the land sales go through, would Ms. Schmitt recommend having the EDA levy the next year. Ms. Schmitt stated yes, to cover core operational expenses. She added without the levy, there will be no cash to purchase properties. City council meeting of March 6, 2023 (Item No. 4a) Page 6 Title: Study session minutes of Nov. 14, 2022 Councilmember Budd stated she agrees with staff recommendations, adding now is not the right time to forgo this. Mayor Spano asked what would happen if there was no development fund. Ms. Barton stated a different funding source would need to be found, adding the development fund was established through pooled increment dollars with no restrictions. She stated at one time there was $35 million in the fund, and it was depleted over the years, with no way to replenish it. Mayor Spano stated this fund has been a low interest loan over the years and has been an exceptional tool. He added there is a broader strategic need for this, and he would like to keep it. Councilmember Kraft stated this fund should be kept flat, given the economic times. Councilmember Rog stated she wants this tool and values it, but just not this year. She added she is not questioning the funds value and doesn’t hear the council talking as much about the taxpayers and what they have to say. She stated the EDA levy should be kept in perpetuity and feels strongly this tool is valuable. Councilmember Dumalag stated she is supportive of staff’s recommendations and is concerned about the development fund going this low. She explained she likes the flexibility but is concerned because it has been a tough year. She stated, however, the city needs to be prepared for unexpected things to come up, like a water main break, and she would hate to pull back on these investments. Ms. Schmitt stated staff could remove funds from all the levies, versus only taking funds out of one levy. She noted if council gives staff the flexibility, they can work up a new plan to bring back to council for review. Councilmember Kraft stated he appreciates staff’s efforts and asked if the land sale closes will that change anything for the other councilmembers. Councilmember Budd stated it would change it for her. A majority of the council support staff’s policy considerations. Councilmember Kraft noted with the HRA levy, he has an issue with TIF seeming like free money. He stated the city does not really know how much affordable housing is funded by TIF, and it seems to be going up. He asked if the city is using more TIF for this, shouldn’t there be a way to give taxpayers a break on the levy. Ms. Barton explained that TIF and levy dollars are not interchangeable and have different uses. Councilmember Kraft stated he understands this but added at the high level, how much can the city continue spending. Written Reports comments: City council meeting of March 6, 2023 (Item No. 4a) Page 7 Title: Study session minutes of Nov. 14, 2022 Councilmember Dumalag stated she is supportive of the zoning, and noted a resident also commented they were supportive of the food service and restaurants and walkability to small business aspects. Councilmember Rog stated on the public art report related to the Dakota Bridge, the project remains unfinished, and there needs to be a future conversation around this. Ms. Heiser stated in next year’s CIP there will be a project to do a sanitary sewer replacement as well as a bridge to the dog park. She stated the project will use ARPA and storm utility funds. She noted this is related to material and construction costs, and the bids increased due to inflation. She stated there is a question on if this project is needed, and it will be reviewed, as well as doing a public process and feedback. Communications/meeting check-in (verbal) Ms. Keller thanked staff for their plowing work on snowy roads today.

Minnetonka Boulevard reconstruction project (4023-7000) Ms. Heiser introduced Mr. Warford and Mr. Staebell who presented the report. Mr. Shamla noted the utility undergrounding configuration and relocation. Mayor Spano opened the public hearing. Diane Pecoraro, 2900 Glenhurst Ave., stated she lives close to the city border and there are many apartments in her area, which have become a wall. She is concerned because City council meeting of March 6, 2023 (Item No. 4b) Page 3 Title: City council meeting minutes of Nov. 21, 2022 there are new residents driving, heavy traffic, and Minnetonka Boulevard is closed at that area. She stated this will create a traffic mess. She agreed the area is a mess from Joppa Avenue to France Avenue and is happy to hear it will be addressed. Jerry Ribnick, 4310 West 25th St., stated he is a long-term resident, a walker, and biker. He suggested the issue is automobiles and people are understating the needs. The housing density will create more traffic. He noted if you travel east on Minnetonka Boulevard during rush hour, it’s a mess and this will just move it farther west. He added a shared-use trail is a concern with walkers, bikers, and scooters. He added from Joppa to France Avenue, if the traffic is reduced, it seems it will be doubled on Highway 25. Heath Hertel, 2833 Joppa Ave., stated his concerns relate to moving from a 4-lane to a 2-lane road. He explained trying to get onto Minnetonka Boulevard during rush hour is challenging and it’s the only way to get to Highway 100 efficiently. He stated when it goes down to one lane, turning will be a concern. He added rerouting of Inglewood Avenue traffic and not being able to turn there is also a concern. Mark Fredrickson, 2851 Joppa Ave., stated he has lived in his home for 28 years and in that time has seen changes, including adding a synagogue and narrowing of the road. He explained on Fridays and Saturdays only one lane of traffic can get on Joppa Avenue. He stated he is concerned about stormwater issues and has not heard how this will be addressed. Teresa Simon, Quentin Ave., noted the illustrations don’t show what will happen west of the mapped area. She noted moving the traffic away from the homes will be a good thing and residents need to have a say related to livability in the neighborhood. She thought the goal would be to make this a more residential street and move faster traffic to Highway 7. She added Quentin is a cut through and the front door of city hall should remain where it currently is. Julia Fredrickson, 2851 Joppa Ave., echoed many of the comments and disagreed that it is equally as fast to go from Minnetonka Boulevard to Highway 100 as on Highway 7. She is not a huge fan of three lanes and is concerned with the traffic light on Joppa and the traffic near the synagogues. She suggested a flashing crossing light should be there and to keep the current light at Inglewood. She noted Joppa is very narrow and it’s difficult to get through with cars parked along both sides. Virgil Boller, Joppa Ave., stated the traffic light on Joppa is not very thoughtful. He asked if staff knows how many streetlights are on Joppa, noting there are six lights on the school and synagogue, because there is constant foot traffic. He has concerns about more traffic on Joppa and noted that traffic accidents will be addressed by diverting traffic onto Highway 7. Mayor Spano closed the public hearing. The city council is scheduled to take formal action on this item at the Dec. 5, 2022, meeting. City council meeting of March 6, 2023 (Item No. 4b) Page 4 Title: City council meeting minutes of Nov. 21, 2022 7. Requests, petitions, and communications from the public – none. 8. Resolutions, ordinances, motions, and discussion items 8a. Adopt resolution accepting Councilmember Kraft’s resignation effective Dec. 30, 2022, and declaring a vacancy for the office of council member at-large A for the term expiring Jan. 2, 2024. Resolution No. 22-177 Councilmember Kraft stated he is excited and sad as he has enjoyed being on council and noted he will recuse himself from this discussion. Ms. Kennedy presented the report to council. She stated the application period will open on Nov. 22 and will close on Dec. 6. She noted applications are available on the city website, on the 3rd floor at city hall or upon request from her office. She explained as per council’s previous direction, staff developed an appointment process that would allow council to fill the vacancy in early 2023. Ms. Kennedy stated the new member will be appointed to fill the remainder of the term expiring on January 2, 2024. The office of council member at large A will be on the ballot in November 2023. If the new member wants to see a new terms, they will need to file for candidacy and run for the office during the 2023 election cycle. Mayor Spano stated Councilmember Kraft is resigning because he was elected to the state legislature representing St. Louis Park, noting the council is proud of him. Councilmember Rog asked where this information about the vacancy will be shared. Ms. Kennedy stated the information will be shared via the city’s social media accounts, the Sun Sailor, Next Door, Gov Delivery notifications, and on the city website. Mayor Spano encouraged residents to reach out with questions about serving in this role. It was moved by Councilmember Mohamed, seconded by Councilmember Dumalag, to adopt Resolution No. 22-177 accepting Councilmember Kraft’s resignation effective Dec. 30, 2022, and declaring a vacancy for the office of council member at-large A for the term expiring Jan. 2, 2024. The motion passed 5-0. (Councilmember Kraft recused himself). 8b. Adopt ordinance related to licensing requirements for the sale of cannabinoid products. Ordinance 2658-22 Mr. Pivec and Chief Harcey presented the staff report. Councilmember Kraft asked if license holders are notified in advance of compliance checks. Chief Harcey stated a notification letter is sent in advance of the check. City council meeting of March 6, 2023 (Item No. 4b) Page 5 Title: City council meeting minutes of Nov. 21, 2022 Councilmember Kraft asked if there is a violation, will the city wait until the following year to do a follow-up check. Chief Harcey stated typically the police will do a recheck within the next 6 months. Councilmember Kraft stated as a parent of teens he has mixed feelings about the legalization of marijuana, but generally he does feel this should be legal to avoid creation of a black market. He noted this should be kept out of the hands of teens whose brains are much more susceptible to being harmed by using this substance. He added given that the checking of a facility is not a surprise, he is not comfortable with the penalties being as low as they are and is more comfortable with something that is done much like liquor penalties. He asked that something different be considered for the penalties for violations. Councilmember Budd asked if the 3rd offense will stay at $2,000. Councilmember Kraft stated he made no changes to the 3rd offense. Councilmember Rog asked why there are different departments administering penalties for alcohol and tobacco – being city clerk and licensing. Mr. Mattick explained the city clerk does the liquor licensing, and tobacco is done in licensing. Mr. Hoffman added liquor licensing is something that is approved by the city council; therefore, the city clerk handles this. He noted other licensing is done administratively and does not need to go to council or the city clerk. He stated city council approval of liquor licenses is done in accordance with state statute and includes a public hearing requirement. Mayor Spano stated he is supportive with changing the penalty noting the rationale makes sense here. It was moved by Councilmember Kraft, seconded by Councilmember Rog, to adopt Ordinance 2658-22 related to licensing requirements for the sale of cannabinoid products, adding that the first offense be $1,000, and the second offense be $2,000, with no other changes to the penalties. The motion passed 6-0 (Councilmember Brausen absent). 8c. Adopt ordinance establishing fee for 2023 THC edible licensing and add to Appendix A of the city code of ordinances. Ordinance 2659-22 Mr. Pivec presented the staff report. Mayor Spano thanked staff and council for their work on this licensing process. Councilmember Rog stated she is supportive of further discussion related to parity between THC and alcohol violation penalties. City council meeting of March 6, 2023 (Item No. 4b) Page 6 Title: City council meeting minutes of Nov. 21, 2022 It was moved by Councilmember Dumalag, seconded by Councilmember Mohamed, to adopt Ordinance 2659-22 establishing fee for 2023 THC edible licensing and add to Appendix A of the city code of ordinances. The motion passed 6-0 (Councilmember Brausen absent). 9. Communications Ms. Keller noted Thanksgiving and Hmong new year, which are both holidays rooted around gratitude and the annual harvest. She stated she plans to educate herself about the history of Thanksgiving and activities she and her family can do to make sure this is an inclusive event for her and deepens her gratitude. She expressed her gratitude for council and staff and for the St. Louis Park community. Councilmember Mohamed commented on a shooting in Colorado Springs affecting the LGBTQ+ community and stated she wanted to pause and reflect on this incident. 10.

The motion passed 7-0. 6b. 2023 proposed budget, tax levies and truth in taxation public hearing. Ms. Schmitt presented the staff report. Mayor Spano opened the public hearing. City council meeting of March 6, 2023 (Item No. 4c) Page 3 Title: City council meeting minutes of December 5, 2022 Elaine Mentze, 6700 Cedar Lake Rd., expressed concern that her taxes have gone up and her home value is not commensurate with the proposed increase. She is a senior citizen and does not have income to sustain tax increases. She noted there are many senior citizens here that need to be taken care of, so they can live here the way they want to. She stated she lives next door to a commercial building and feels the tax proposal is outrageous. She asked what seniors are supposed to do when they need more funds. She questioned why the city needs bike lanes or more apartments, adding there is too much traffic, and it feels the city council is disregarding the citizens of St. Louis Park. Elaine Nikrad, 2411 Gettysburg Ave., stated she has lived in St. Louis Park for 45 years. She agreed with previous comments made, noting it seems her taxes went up 20%. She understands some can be gained back through tax credits. She reviewed the information provided to try to understand the logic behind the increase, but it does not make sense to her. She asked how the city considers the additional revenues that should be coming in from the new multi-family buildings and how devaluation of property is assessed. She noted home values and taxes are increasing, but incomes are not increasing at the same rate. Therese Samudio, 2947 Quentin Ave. S, stated the housing market went up last spring, but then it came back down, and she does not feel that is reflected in the calculations. She expressed concern that homes are not worth what they were in the spring of 2022. She stated the value of her house increased $40,000 but it was too late to contest the proposed valuation. She reiterated she does not believe the homes are worth what the city says they are. Mayor Spano closed the public hearing. Mayor Spano noted city staff and the city assessor can walk through the proposed taxes and property values with residents and encouraged them to contact staff at city hall. The city council is scheduled to take formal action on this item on December 19, 2022. 7. Requests, petitions, and communications from the public – none. 8. Resolutions, ordinances, motions, and discussion items 8a. Adopt resolution granting city support for the preferred layout for the Hennepin County Minnetonka Blvd. improvement project and authorizing staff to continue to work with Xcel Energy on undergrounding the overhead utilities. Resolution No. 22-187 Mr. Warford, principal transportation engineer for Bolton & Menk, presented the staff report. Councilmember Rog noted she had questions and concerns related to buses. Buses may block traffic and create flow problems, as well as drivers going around the bus. Mr. Warford stated they had conversations with Metro Transit noting buses do stop in lanes City council meeting of March 6, 2023 (Item No. 4c) Page 4 Title: City council meeting minutes of December 5, 2022 and stay there. Typically, that is modeled with average stop times. He added there is a benefit to keep buses in the lane and the traffic modeling shows minor impacts on travel time. Councilmember Rog asked if there are ways bus schedules and lights are coordinated to optimize travel times. Mr. Warford stated yes, but he has not heard this is a plan for Minnetonka Boulevard, and typically this is for corridors with heavier travel. Councilmember Rog noted a resident is concerned about people using side streets because Minnetonka Boulevard is a bottleneck. Mr. Warford stated in general, with the volumes seen today, there are not concerns. He added the two locations of concern are at Highway 100 and the turns at Highway 25. He stated west of Salem Avenue the configuration goes back to a 4-lane road, and it should not be a bottleneck. Councilmember Rog asked about adding an audible and beacon crossing light at Quentin. Ms. Heiser stated staff often receives this question from the public and it can be looked at. Councilmember Rog stated the owners of Yum are concerned about the project. Mr. Warford stated they met with the owners and acknowledged they do have concerns. He stated they have three issues: access, visibility, and seating. He explained the owners want to work through a few things before they will support the project and now have a better understanding of the access issues. He added there are some things the county wants to do and will work with the city to help address the owners’ questions during final design. Councilmember Rog stated as a pedestrian and biker, there will be a significant improvement on snow removal. Ms. Heiser stated snow removal on the sidewalks is the city’s responsibility, but there is nowhere to put the snow. She noted the 9-foot boulevard and trail will help the city do a better job of cleaning snow in the winter. Councilmember Rog asked what people can expect with construction. Mr. Warford stated construction is never fun, it’s a long corridor, and construction will be impactful. There will be some early utility relocation and replacement of the water main will be disruptive. He shared that there are some north/south routes that can be used, but he is not sure how this will be coordinated yet. He stated people will be able to get to their homes and businesses in the area. He added the work will be segmented over the course of a couple seasons. Councilmember Rog added the water main replacement will be a good project especially considering recent developments. Ms. Heiser stated it is time to replace this as this road has not been touched since 1954. Councilmember Kraft stated he appreciates the detail responding to the comments and concerns of residents, and the modifications, especially at Joppa Avenue. He added at the highest level this is consistent with strategic priorities and this will increase safety for pedestrians, bikes, and cars, and will create a bicycle corridor where one doesn’t City council meeting of March 6, 2023 (Item No. 4c) Page 5 Title: City council meeting minutes of December 5, 2022 exist today. He added it improves water management, adds green space, and makes this traffic neutral by diverting to help handle more volume. He added in principle this seems positive and he is supportive of the policy questions. Councilmember Brausen stated he agrees with Councilmember Kraft’s comments, noting it’s an expensive project and the fact that the county is covering two-thirds of the project is great. He added he knows folks have concerns about taxes going up, but this is the type of big project that requires funds. It creates infrastructure that will last 50 – 100 years, hopefully, is the city’s obligation, and what citizens expect. He stated he was also supportive of the policy questions. Councilmember Dumalag stated she will also support this project, appreciates the care taken around Salem, and is anxious to see how Joppa and Ottawa end up. She also expressed interest in seeing other iterations of the design. Councilmember Mohamed stated she supports this proposal, adding as a driver and pedestrian in that area, this helps her feel confident in the upgrades that will be coming. Councilmember Budd agreed with comments previously made and supported the policy questions. She is excited about the opportunity to feel safe walking and biking along Minnetonka Boulevard. Mayor Spano added he also will support this. He thanked county and city staff for coming back with the details and updates, especially around the light at Joppa Avenue. He feels insecure driving in this area, noting it is confusing, but this configuration will help Minnetonka Boulevard return to a neighborhood feel. He added the Quentin Avenue crossing is intimidating for him also and a concern, where a controlled crossing is needed. Mayor Spano stated he lives off Excelsior Boulevard where a lot has been done over the last 15 years. He stated it has increased traffic in his area, but in many ways has made him a more careful and thoughtful driver. He stated traffic patterns will change but over time, driver habits will become safer, noting he will support this as well. Councilmember Rog thanked the people who gave feedback in multiple ways and hopes everyone has felt heard. She saw multiple revisions to this plan and there will be more concerns as we move forward. She appreciated the work of county and city staff on the design, noting it aligns with community priorities for safe walking, biking, and cars, and promotes an active street and robust public realm. She stated one concern is that a resident said the re-design will destroy the charm of the Fernhill neighborhood, but she is confident those changes will enhance the charm and be more welcoming, adding she hopes the greatest skeptics will enjoy the design to come. She added she looks to staff to be sure detours are well managed and communicated during this challenging time and she is excited about the project. It was moved by Councilmember Rog, seconded by Councilmember Kraft, to adopt Resolution No. 22- 187, granting city support for the preferred layout for the Hennepin City council meeting of March 6, 2023 (Item No. 4c) Page 6 Title: City council meeting minutes of December 5, 2022 County Minnetonka Blvd. improvement project and authorizing staff to continue to work with Xcel Energy on undergrounding the overhead utilities. The motion passed 7-0. 9. Communications Mayor Spano stated Dec. 6 at 11:59 p.m. is the deadline to file applications for the upcoming vacant city council seat. He encouraged folks to consider applying and to reach out to council or staff with questions. Mayor Spano stated on Dec. 13 the Canadian Pacific Holiday Train is back and stopping at STEP that evening. He encouraged folks to make donations to STEP. Ms. Keller added the city website and email addresses will change from .org to .gov on Dec. 13. The new URL will be stlouisparkmn.gov. 10.

Mayor Spano referenced item 5h, stating the bid information was confusing. He noted $263,932 was budgeted for this item, and the bid was lower than that. He added the city manager’s authority for approval is capped at $175,000 per purchase, so this is the reason this item is coming back to council for approval. Councilmember Mohamed commented on item 5e, stating she likes the idea of having proclamations for cultural and religious holidays because it is a great way to increase awareness. She asked to explore how to make this practice more impactful and meaningful for residents and those the city is aiming to honor. She suggested community members who observe these holidays or events be invited to read the proclamation at the meeting. She asked for other suggestions to collaborate and find ways to honor the holidays and observances without tokenizing. It was moved by Councilmember Brausen, seconded by Councilmember Rog, to approve the agenda as presented and items listed on the consent calendar; and to waive reading of all resolutions and ordinances.

Councilmember Brausen noted the final design is 30% completed and asked when final design will be completed. Mr. Shamla stated in later 2023, early 2024. City council meeting of March 6, 2023 (Item No. 4d) Page 3 Title: City council meeting of January 17, 2023 Councilmember Brausen asked if, during the final design process, the city will continue to work with residents on their specific concerns. Mr. Shamla confirmed and noted residents can meet with staff at their residence or at city hall. Councilmember Brausen commented on the importance of this project to Ward 4, noting these are the two major roadways that run through the ward. He noted everyone uses these roads daily and this is a large, expensive project. He thanked the public that’s been engaged throughout this process, adding hundreds have participated thus far. He recognized the 20 or more in attendance and thanked them for being engaged in the process with council and staff. He stated all the public input will continue to have an impact on the project and final design. Mayor Spano opened the public hearing. Gay Arnaz, 8100 Virginia Circle, stated he does not want to see the lights at Cedar Lake Road and Texas removed. He added the roundabout at Cedar Lake Road and Louisiana Avenue scares him and he has concerns about maneuvering through that location. Mary Hendrickson, 9015 Cedar Lake Rd., stated she hopes the giant utility boxes will be removed from her front yard during the project. She stated there should be 15 feet for each easement and questioned if some might be protected beyond that typical easement given the associated costs. William Snell, 1615 Nevada Ave., referenced Cedar Lake Road and asked if there will be bike lanes on both sides, suggesting they should be sidewalks. He asked how people will get in and out of the shopping centers at Cedar Lake Road and Louisiana Avenue with a roundabout. He questioned how police and fire vehicles get through the roundabouts with traffic, especially during rush hour. He asked if roundabouts will be at Cedar Lake Road and Virginia Avenue and at Cedar Manor School and where the yield will be for these roundabouts. Mike Hendrickson, 9015 Cedar Lake Rd., stated residents need education on how to drive in and access roundabouts. He explained the storm drain on his property is always clogged with ice and snow, so they get water there, and he would like to see this cleared up. He also expressed concern that people were not trimming trees in front of homes and that the city was not trimming the trees in public rights-of-way and there should be a shared responsibility. Adam Bahalski, 1633 Louisiana Ave., stated the potential sidewalks and bike lanes would affect him as he lives on the east side. He opposed installing bike lanes and sidewalks on that side because of the mature trees. He stated it’s a gateway into the city and it would be a shame to get rid of the trees. He supported alternative #3 as proposed. He noted there is a sidewalk on the west side, and it does not get used, so he is not sure why one is needed on the east side. Nancy Gronseth, 7924 Cedar Lake Rd., stated she does not want the roundabout and expressed concern with semitrucks going through a roundabout. She added Louisiana City council meeting of March 6, 2023 (Item No. 4d) Page 4 Title: City council meeting of January 17, 2023 Avenue and Cedar Lake Road are grouped together, but noted they each have their own unique characteristics and uses. She stated Louisiana connects with 394, and goes to Minnetonka Boulevard, providing through access and Cedar Lake Road has more residential traffic. She stated Cedar Lake Road is still a neighborhood street with bikers and walkers. She asked the council to consider usage. She mentioned the boulevard trees, noting the trees have been planted three times in 35 years and they need to get the plan right. Louis Puga, 7918 Cedar Lake Rd., asked about tree impacts and how homeowners will find out what will happen to their properties. He expressed concerned about the roundabout. Kelsey Thomas, 9010 Stanlen Rd., stated she would like the families impacted that go to PSI to be actively invited to future design meetings. She felt the pop-up meeting was not well communicated and she would like to see better advertisement of those opportunities, so families can know in advance. Tyler Seeger, 2501 Pennsylvania Ave., thanked the city council for this process, stating he and his family are in support of the project, although it does impact them. He thanked city for making this pedestrian and bike friendly and for considering mass transit needs. He asked the council to please keep in mind the families impacted on Cedar Lake Road and Louisiana Avenue, and to try to minimize the impact of encroachment on the right-of-way and tree loss. Mayor Spano closed the public hearing. Councilmember Rog stated the questions from this evening will be responded to by staff verbally at the meeting in two weeks. Councilmember Brausen added that residents can reach out to staff for answers to their questions prior to the meeting, adding staff is very responsive. The council is scheduled to take formal action on this item at the Feb. 6, 2023, meeting. 7. Regular business. a.

Resolution No. 23-018 Mr. Wiesen presented the report. Councilmember Budd stated the Oak Park Village Community is very excited about this project and she is excited about this plan. Councilmember Brausen stated he appreciates staff’s work on the annual pavement management project, and commented on the public hearings and input that has gone City council meeting of March 6, 2023 (Item No. 4d) Page 5 Title: City council meeting of January 17, 2023 into this process. He appreciated the review of parking on Edgewood Avenue as that was a concern to property owners and is excited about the sidewalk addition as well. It was moved by Councilmember Brausen, seconded by Councilmember Budd, to adopt Resolution No. 23-018, establishing the 2023 Pavement Management Project (4023- 1000), approving plans and specifications, and authorizing advertisement for bids. The motion passed 6-0. 8. Communications. Councilmember Mohamed stated yesterday was the National Day of Racial Healing and an event was held at the Westwood Hills Nature Center, with great food, and great conversations. She enjoyed the event and thanked Dr. Stephens and School Superintendent Osei for their participation. She stated the real stars were the (SOAR) “Students Organized for Anti-Racism”, noting they did a wonderful job and commended them for facilitating the conversation on their day off. She stated she left feeling great about the future generation. Mayor Spano agreed and stated his work with the SOAR students has also been wonderful. Ms. Keller stated the next meeting on Mon., Jan. 23, will be the second round of interviews for the open councilmember position. Ms. Keller explained winter parking restrictions will be put into effect due to heavy snow in January. She stated there is a map online for which streets will go to one-side parking with enforcement (tickets and tows if needed) on Friday, noting the restrictions will not lift until the city decides when it is safe to do so. She noted the changes are needed because streets are too narrow for emergency vehicles and garbage trucks to pass through. She stated residents are encouraged to contact staff with any questions. 9.

Policy consideration: Does the city council support the proposed amendments to align the city’s regulations related to the sale and service of alcohol with state law? Summary: Chapter 3 of the city code governs the sale and service of alcohol in the city, including licensing requirements. The goal of the proposed amendments is to simplify certain areas of the code to align with the liquor rules and regulations outlined in M.S. Chapter 340A. Proposed changes reflect an explicit deference to state law to eliminate, wherever possible, the need to amend the code each time a provision in state law changes. The city attorney and League of MN Cities support this approach to regulating liquor at the local level. This ensures the city’s regulations comply with state law and are responsive to the needs of current and future licensees. The city continues to retain the ability to be more restrictive than state law, although the preferred approach has been to provide as much flexibility as possible for licensed establishments while also maintaining the character and standards of both neighborhood and commercial districts. The city council approved the first reading of the ordinance on February 21, 2023, with no changes. Financial or budget considerations: Not applicable. Strategic priority consideration: Not applicable.

Policy consideration: Does the city council want to award a contract for the removal of nuisance trees on public property? Summary: At their January 3, 2023, meeting, the city council approved advertising for bids to remove nuisance trees on public property. A total of six (6) bids were received for this project on March 2, 2023.

Pro-Tree Outdoor Services has successfully completed similar work for the City of Eden Prairie with positive feedback from Eden Prairie staff. Industry reports indicated an 8% - 10% increase in contract costs for 2023. This inflation is attributed to increased fuel and labor costs along with supply and demand from emerald ash borer removals in the area. Budget estimates were developed in June 2022, and the bids received came in under budget. Removal of trees on public property is required for compliance with the city’s vegetation nuisance codes; primarily removal of diseased, insect infested, and hazard trees. Tree removal helps keep the public safe and reduces infection/infestation in healthy trees. Financial or budget considerations: Annual tree removal is included in the city’s budget, under the natural resources division.

Information regarding this bidding opportunity was shared with three minority associations and 35 Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBE) contractors, as well as posted on the Association of Women Contractors Bid Opportunity Board. Forty-four contractors/vendors downloaded plan sets, of which six were DBE companies.

As each project is brought to the council for final approval and for bid award, this summary will be updated to reflect the bids received. Final numbers will depend on bids received. Bid analysis The low bid is 0.66% over the CIP amount. Below is an analysis of the costs for each funding category. Pavement management: The low bid for pavement management is $13,851.67 under the pavement management CIP amount. Water utility: The low bid for watermain utility is $2,635.94 under the watermain utility CIP amount. Stormwater utility: The low bid for the storm utility is $197,568.66 (33.7%) over the storm utility CIP amount. After reviewing the bid, the increase is due to the cost of catch basins, manhole structures, and reinforced concrete pipe. When compared to 2022 bid item prices, the cost of catch basins increased by 42%, the cost of manhole structures increased by 100%, and the cost of reinforced concrete pipe increased by 32%. City staff reached out to the contractor to gain a better understanding of the increase in storm structure costs. Contractors have been seeing a 50% to 100% increase in cost for concrete storm pipes and structures. This trend has been present for the last couple of years. This is due to a number of factors: ever-changing market, increase in construction demand, supply chain issues and trucking/delivery costs. Sanitary sewer utility: The low bid for the sanitary sewer utility is $51,354.20 (17.5%) over the sanitary sewer utility CIP amount. After reviewing the bid, the increase is due to the cost of sanitary sewer manhole structures. When compared to 2022 bid item prices, the cost for sanitary sewer manhole structures increased by 100%. The reasons for the increase in sanitary structure costs are the same as the increase in storm sewer structure costs. Sidewalks: The low bid for the sidewalk segments is $181,081.07 under the sidewalk CIP amount. Recommendation There are three options open to the city when a bid is higher than what is included in the CIP. These are: reject the bid and rebid for this year, reject the bid and delay the project until a Page 4 City council meeting of March 6, 2023 (Item No. 5d) Title: Bid tabulation: 2023 pavement management project (4023-1000) future year, and award the bid after a review of the overall financial management plan to understand if funding is available. To prepare the recommendation for award, staff explored these three options and is recommending that the bid be awarded. This recommendation was developed after reaching out to contractors to better understand the bidding climate. Staff does not recommend going back out to bid for this project in 2023 since it is unlikely that the pricing will change. To ensure that the condition of streets remains good and that they continue to serve the community, staff recommends that the city move ahead with this project in 2023. To accomplish this, engineering has reviewed the contract costs with the interim finance director. Utility funds will be able to pay for the increased cost of the project, including contingency, as long as future CIP projects are reviewed to offset these additional costs. In the coming months, staff will review the existing CIP and look for opportunities to offset the additional sanitary and stormwater costs in future years. Next steps Construction is anticipated to begin in May and should be completed by November 2023.

Policy consideration: Does Community Charities of Minnesota meet the requirements to conduct off-site gambling? Summary: Community Charities of Minnesota has submitted an application to conduct off-site gambling in connection with the ShamROC Ice Bowling event taking place at the St. Louis Park Recreation Outdoor Center (ROC) on March 18, 2023. Community Charities of Minnesota currently holds a premises permit to conduct lawful gambling at Park Tavern and will provide pull-tabs for this event. State law provides that a licensed organization can conduct lawful gambling on a premises other than the organization’s permitted premises. However, the city is required to approve the off-site request for the organization to obtain the required permit from the State Gambling Control Board. Community Charities of Minnesota adheres to the laws associated with gambling and all requirements have been met for issuance. Should the city council approve, the application and resolution will be forwarded to the State Gambling Control Board who is responsible for issuing the permit. Financial or budget considerations: None. Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to creating opportunities to build social capital through community engagement.

Policy consideration: Does the city council support the proposed ordinance amendments? Summary: Periodically staff proposes an ordinance to amend various sections of the zoning code for the purpose of making changes that are consistent with current policy, correcting errors and making clarifications. The following is a list of the more substantiative amendments: 1. Revise maximum number of vehicles allowed to be parked outside on a single-dwelling residential property. 2. Expand on existing driveway standards for residential properties in the R-1, R-2, and R-3 districts. 3. Extend the temporary structure time limit from 14 days to 180 days per calendar year. 4. Allow exterior materials on existing buildings to be painted without changing the class 1, 2 or 3 materials makeup. 5. Remove the condition requiring food service land uses to be setback from residential properties. 6. Revise the electric vehicle charging station requirement to be consistent with the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry ruling that cities cannot require EVCS in any building or parking structure, except surface parking lots. 7. Allow office uses as permitted uses in the MX-1 mixed-use district. 8. Additional minor amendments or code corrections. The planning commission reviewed the ordinance in study session on January 18, 2023, and conducted a public hearing on February 15, 2023. No comments were received at the public hearing and both staff and the planning commission are recommending approval. The attached discussion summarizes each proposed change in detail. The full ordinance is attached for your review. Financial or budget considerations: None Strategic priority consideration: Not applicable. Supporting documents: Discussion Draft ordinance Prepared by: Gary Morrison, zoning administrator Reviewed by: Sean Walther, planning manager Karen Barton, community development director Approved by: Kim Keller, city manager City council meeting of March 6, 2023 (Item No. 7a) Page 2 Title: Miscellaneous zoning ordinance amendments Discussion: The following is a summary of each section of the proposed zoning ordinance. The actual redlined changes to the code can be seen in the attached ordinance. Section 1. Land use definitions. City code section 36-73(b). This amendment clarifies that patios and ground level decks at non-residential properties can extend to the property line when adjacent to a street or other non-residential property. The intent is to clarify that outdoor patios and dining areas between the building and front lot line are allowed. Section 2. Fence regulations. City code section 36-74(e). This amendment updates the list of zoning districts where residents can build an eight-foot tall fence when adjacent to the list of non-residential zoning districts. It adds the MX and PUD districts to the list. These districts were inadvertently not added to the list when the districts were created. This section also replaces the word “church” with the words “religious institutions” to be more inclusive. Section 3. Temporary uses. City code section 36-82(b). This amendment increases the number of days from 14 to 180 that a temporary structure, such as a tent, can be utilized. This increase is the result of temporary measures taken during covid that allowed businesses to expand their active areas, such as dining outdoors. The change would allow activities to occur outdoors in a similar manner for up to six months per calendar year. The 180 days is expected to be utilized during the winter but could be used anytime during the year. Section 4. Land use by zoning district. City code section 36-115. This amendment updates the range of divisions resulting from the addition of additional zoning districts to the zoning ordinance. This is a minor update with no substantiative changes. Section 5. Land use definitions. City code section 36-142(d). This amendment updates the land use definition for in-vehicle sales or service. The update is in part a result of changes in the way businesses operate due to covid and technology. Many businesses rely on curbside pick-up as not only a convenience, but a way to accommodate people’s health needs and concerns. The proposed amendment excludes curbside pick-up and ATMs from in-vehicle service. As a result, curbside pick-up and ATMs will be allowed in more areas throughout the city and will not require special approvals such as a conditional use permit. These uses will be reviewed by staff as needed. Section 6. Residential restrictions and performance standards. City code section 36- 162(d)(1). This amendment clarifies that pool equipment are bound by the same setbacks as the pool itself, unless the equipment is contained within a shed, then the shed setbacks apply, which would allow it to be closer to the property line. Section 7. Residential restrictions and performance standards. City code section 36- 162(f)(3)a. This amendment would establish a maximum of three vehicles that can be stored outside on a property. Additional vehicles would have to be parked in a garage or on the street as allowed. At the planning commission’s request, an exception was added to allow the maximum to temporarily be exceeded during snow emergencies. City council meeting of March 6, 2023 (Item No. 7a) Page 3 Title: Miscellaneous zoning ordinance amendments Current city code allows a maximum of three vehicles but allows up to five vehicles if there are up to five licensed drivers living at the home. Enforcement of this exception requires city staff to visit the home to review the licenses of all residents, which can be an invasive experience for some residents. The exception also requires all residents to be home at the time of the inspection, which can be difficult to achieve. It is more practical and respectful to eliminate this exception and have a set number of vehicles that can be stored outside the garage. The term “vehicles” includes cars, trucks, trailers, recreational vehicles, and some commercial vehicles. The city code will continue to prohibit trailers and commercial vehicles to be parked on a residential street, require vehicles to be parked on a paved surface, and require inoperable vehicles to be parked inside a garage; the ordinance does not amend these rules. Section 8. Residential restrictions and performance standards. City code section 36- 162(f)(3)k. This amendment accommodates the new driveway regulations proposed in section 9. Section 9. Residential restrictions and performance standards. City code section 36-162(f). This section proposes adding the following driveway standards: 1. Establish a maximum driveway width of 36 feet for single-dwelling properties and 44 feet for two-dwelling properties. 2. The maximum width includes space for parking spaces, garage spaces, and turnarounds. 3. Establish a maximum of one curb cut per street and/or alley for lots less than 80 feet wide. Two curb cuts per street and/or alley for lots 80 or greater in width. This will accommodate horse-shoe driveways. 4. Clarify approved driveway and parking space surfaces. This allows ribbon driveways and permeable pavers if vegetation is maintained between the ribbons and open areas of permeable pavers. Dirt, sand, and gravel is not allowed as these materials tend to erode into the street. 5. The following exhibit will be adopted into the code to illustrate some of the regulations: City council meeting of March 6, 2023 (Item No. 7a) Page 4 Title: Miscellaneous zoning ordinance amendments Section 10. C-1 neighborhood commercial district. City code section 36-193(c). This amendment removes the conditions that food services must be located at least 25 feet from properties zoned residential and that they must be located on a collector or arterial roadway. Nearly all properties zoned C-1 neighborhood commercial are located within 25 feet of a property zoned residential. As a result, the food service use is not permitted in most properties zoned C-1 neighborhood commercial. This includes food related uses that rely on take-out such as bakeries, pizza deliveries, taco bars, or other food services with seating for 10 or fewer people. These uses are desirable in neighborhood commercial areas, and therefore, the setback requirement should be removed. Additionally, the 25-foot-setback is not required in other districts, so removing this requirement would be consistent with other districts. Section 11. C-2 general commercial district. City code section 36-194(b). This amendment allows the food service use, as discussed in section 10 above, to be a permitted use in the C-2 general commercial district without additional conditions. Section 12. C-2 general commercial district. City code section 36-194(c). This amendment removes food service from the permitted with conditions section. This deletion, in conjunction with section 11 above, which adds food service as a permitted use, eliminates the 25-foot setback from residential requirement. As a result, food service will be permitted in the same manner in all districts where it is allowed. Section 13. Electric vehicle supply equipment. City code section 36-361. This amendment removes the electric vehicle charging station (EVCS) requirement from inside buildings and parking structures. This deletion is required to be consistent with the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry ruling that cities cannot require EVCS in buildings or parking structures. The city can and will continue to require them in parking structures if financial assistance is provided, as part of a planned unit development or incentive agreement. The ruling does not restrict the city from requiring EVCS in surface parking lots, so the city will continue to do so. Section 14. Architectural design. City code section 36-366(c). This section allows brick and other materials on existing buildings to be painted. City code currently prohibits brick and other materials from being painted. It recently came to the city’s attention that some property owners have painted their building over the past several years in violation of city code. During the enforcement process, staff became aware that there was some interest from members of the council to allow buildings to be painted. Enforcement is a challenge because no permits are required to paint buildings, so staff are discovering them after they have been painted rather than preventing them from being painted. This section also proposes to allow non-residential buildings to enclose open covered patios with a flexible, transparent membrane for up to 180 days. This could allow covered outdoor patios to be used during the winter months. This regulation is consistent with the proposed amendment to allow temporary structures for up to 180 days. Section 15. Land use descriptions and characteristics. City code section 36-142(d). This section clarifies the existing marijuana dispensary definition to make sure it encompasses all City council meeting of March 6, 2023 (Item No. 7a) Page 5 Title: Miscellaneous zoning ordinance amendments types of facilities that could sell recreational and medical marijuana. There is some concern the current definition could be interpreted to exclude some facilities or even recreational sales. The city has a definition for the use, but currently does not allow the use anywhere in the city. If the city wishes to allow sales in the city, staff proposes to consider where and how it should be allowed if the state legalizes it. That way the city can consider all aspects of the use, including state requirements, before amending the ordinance to allow it. Section 16. M-X mixed use district. City code section 36-264 – Table 263(b). This section pertains to the MX-1 mixed-use district. It proposes to remove the office use from the “permitted in limited stories” category to the “permitted” category. The result is that office uses will be allowed on primary street frontages without additional conditions. Current code allows them on primary street frontages; however, the office use cannot occupy the front 30 feet of the tenant space. That space would have to be occupied by another use such as retail, showrooms, or other uses. The change would allow the office use to occupy the entire tenant space.
