Title: City council meeting protocols
Discussion
Background: During the city council’s annual retreat, several operational topics were identified
for follow-up discussion. The topics are generally related to meeting protocols or practices. An
overview of the topics, additional considerations or dependencies, and information related to
possible next steps is outlined below. Staff and the city attorney will be in attendance to help
answer questions and facilitate discussion.
City council meeting start time - The council will discuss the possibility of changing the start
time of regular city council meetings and study sessions to 6 p.m. Meeting start times are set by
the council as per section 2-31 of the city code. The city council previously amended meeting
start times in 2019. Meeting start times of public bodies vary greatly. Neighboring cities
generally have established meeting start times between 6 – 7 p.m.
• Present considerations – the council may want to consider and discuss the following:
o Council member availability.
o Possible outcomes, including who could benefit or be impacted by a change.
o Other dependencies, including required adjustments to the EDA meeting schedule.
• Next steps - If the council would like to change the start time for regular meetings and study
sessions, implementation would require:
o Amend city council rules of procedure by resolution
o Amend EDA bylaws
o Public outreach and education regarding change
o Update official city council and EDA meeting calendars and legal notices
o Update city communications resources (website, print materials, ParkTV, etc.)
o Adjust broadcast schedule for meetings
Public comment - The council will discuss protocols around public comment at regular city
council meetings. The city council currently provides the opportunity for members of the public
to comment on any item that is on a regular meeting agenda. Additionally, members of the
public can submit requests for agenda items such as proclamations, presentation time or an
item that is of concern to the city. This topic was previously discussed in 2022 and 2023 during
the community and civic engagement system. Staff reports and meeting minutes are provided
as a refresher for the council. Since that time, the strategies discussed have been implemented.
• Present considerations – the council may want to consider and discuss the following:
o Have your goals or desired outcomes related to this topic changed since the last
discussion? What is the need or issue you want to address?
o Possible outcomes, including who benefits or is impacted by current or new practices
and access to the council.
o Unintended consequences, such as impacts to meeting efficiency or council
effectiveness.
o Legal considerations related to first amendment rights.
• Next steps – TBD, based on council direction.

Title: City council meeting protocols
Public hearing protocols - The council will discuss practices related to the conduct of public
hearings including how questions are handled at hearings and how to handle situations in
which a member may be absent. This discussion will provide an opportunity for members to
share thoughts, ideas and concerns with current practices and possible outcomes.
• Present considerations – the council may want to consider and discuss the following:
o What works with the current practice? What are the challenges the council wants to
address?
o Possible outcomes, including who benefits or is impacted by current or new practices.
o Impact, positive or negative, of delaying consideration of items.
o Legal considerations related to notice requirements for public hearings and required
timelines for certain actions.
• Next steps – TBD, based on council direction.
Council connections - The council will discuss their needs and ideas related to opportunities for
social connection and relationship building as a group, outside of official meetings.
• Present considerations – the council may want to consider and discuss the following:
o What would work for you and what are you looking to get out of the connection
experience?
o Scheduling, frequency and location.
o Cost – because the purpose is to provide dedicated opportunities for interpersonal
communication, not city business, any costs incurred would be funded by attending
council members.
o What support do you need from staff, if any, to facilitate?
• Next steps – TBD, based on council direction.

Executive summary
Title: Resolution approving second amendment to preliminary development agreement with
Greater Minnesota Housing Corporation – Ward 1
Recommended action: Motion to adopt EDA Resolution approving the second amendment to
the preliminary development agreement between the EDA and Greater Minnesota Housing
Corporation (GMHC) relative to the proposed Minnetonka Boulevard affordable housing
initiative.
Policy consideration: Does the EDA wish to extend the preliminary development agreement
(PDA) with Greater Metropolitan Housing Corporation (GMHC) to continue joint efforts to
prepare a mutually acceptable affordable housing development plan for four EDA-owned
properties along Minnetonka Boulevard?
Summary: On July 6, 2021, the EDA entered a preliminary development agreement (PDA) with
Greater Metropolitan Housing Corporation (GMHC) to pursue development of owner -occupied
affordable housing on four single-family properties located at 5639, 5643, 5647 and 5707
Minnetonka Boulevard owned by the EDA. Since that time, GMHC and the EDA have been
working to secure outside grants to help fund the project. Additionally, GMHC has been
exploring a partnership with Homes within Reach to potentially include a community land trust
for the redevelopment. A staff report summarizing past actions and next steps was provided on
April 24, 2024.
A first amendment to the PDA was executed in 2023, which expires on June 1, 2024 , unless it is
extended. Given the progress made to date and the parties’ ongoing mutual interest in the
proposed affordable housing initiative, EDA staff recommend extending the PDA to December
31, 2025.
Financial or budget considerations: The precise purchase price of the EDA parcels and the
amount of financial assistance necessary to move the proposed Minnetonka Boulevard
redevelopment forward will require further exploration and discussion once the project
components are more fully defined. Staff anticipate the proposed redevelopment will require
financial assistance from the city and/or the EDA.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing a broad range of
housing and neighborhood oriented development.

EDA Resolution No. 24 - ___
Approving a second amendment to preliminary development
agreement
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; Authorization.
(a) The authority entered into a preliminary development agreement dated July 6,
2021 (the “original agreement”), with the Greater Metropolitan Housing Corporation, a
Minnesota nonprofit corporation, (the “developer”), pursuant to which the developer proposed
to acquire the property and to develop approximately eight twin home units for low to moderate
income individuals thereon (the “development”)
(b) Due to certain delays, the developer requested, and the authority agreed to
adopt a first amendment to the preliminary development agreement (the “first amendment”) to
extend term of the original agreement.
(c) The parties have negotiated and now propose to execute a second amendment
to the original agreement to further extend the term of the original agreement to ensure
completion of necessary preliminary activities.
(d) The board has reviewed the second amendment and finds that the execution
thereof and performance of the authority’s obligations thereunder are in the best interest of the
city and its residents.
Section 2. Approval of documents.
(a) The board approves the second amendment in substantially the form
presented to the board, together with any related documents necessary in connection therewith,
including without limitation all documents, exhibits, certifications, or consents, referenced in or
attached to the first amendment (the “documents”).
(b) The board hereby authorizes the president and executive director, in their
discretion and at such time, if any, as they may deem appropriate, to execute the documents on
behalf of the authority, and to carry out, on behalf of the authority, the authority’s obligations
thereunder when all conditions precedent thereto have been satisfied. The documents shall be
in substantially the form on file with the authority and the approval hereby given to the
documents includes approval of such additional details therein as may be necessary and
appropriate and such modifications thereof, deletions therefrom and additions thereto as may
be necessary and appropriate and approved by legal counsel to the authority and by the officers
authorized herein to execute said documents prior to their execution; and said officers are
hereby authorized to approve said changes on behalf of the authority. The execution of any
instrument by the appropriate officers of the authority herein authorized shall be conclusive
evidence of the approval of such document in accordance with the terms hereof. This resolution

(c) In the event of absence or disability of the officers, any of the documents

authorization of the board by any duly designated acting official, or by such other officer or
officers of the board as, in the opinion of the city attorney, may act in their behalf. Upon

Executive summary
Title: Resolution approving an MPCA Environmental Covenant related to Rise on 7 development
– Ward 2
Recommended action: Motion to adopt EDA resolution approving a partial release of mortgage
and consent to the recording of an environmental covenant related to the vapor barrier
constructed for CommonBond Communities’ Rise on 7 development.
Policy consideration: Does the EDA support the release of mortgage and recording of an
environmental covenant related to the vapor barrier constructed for CommonBond
Communities’ Rise on 7 development at 8115 MN Highway 7?
Summary: CommonBond Communities constructed the Rise on 7 all-affordable housing
development at 8115 MN Highway 7. Construction was completed in November 2023 and the
building is fully occupied.
Recently it was discovered that the legal description within the EDA’s LCDA loan mortgage on
the property contains an error. It includes the legal description of the daycare, which has a
separate owner and separate legal description. To correct the error, the developer has
requested a partial release of mortgage to remove the daycare legal description from the larger
property’s legal description.
Additionally, a vapor mitigation system was installed on the site as part of the required
response action plan (RAP) related to contamination stemming from former nearby gas
stations. Since the project received an allocation of Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC)
from the state, the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency is requesting a restrictive
environmental covenant be recorded on the property. The covenant states that the owners
shall maintain the integrity of the building floors and shall operate, monitor, and maintain the
vapor mitigation system to prevent intrusion of vapors into the building. The covenant also
gives the state, county, and city the ability to inspect the vapor barrier and monitor compliance.
Since the EDA holds a mortgage on the property related to the financial assistance provided for
the project, the EDA is asked to approve a resolution correcting the LCDA loan’s legal
description, and to agree to the recording of the proposed restrictive covenant on the property.
Staff and legal counsel recommend approval of the proposed resolution.
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.

EDA Resolution No. 24 - ____
Approving a partial release of mortgage and a consent to
environmental covenants
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; Authorization.
(a) The authority and the Metropolitan Council (the “grantor”) entered into a Livable
Communities Demonstration Account development grant agreement, grant number SG-14542, on
December 3, 2020, as amended by a first amendment of Metropolitan Livable Communities Act
Livable Communities Account development grant agreement (collectively, the “grant agreement”),
pursuant to which the authority was awarded $1,430,000 (the “grant funds”) to fund stormwater
management, holding costs, and site acquisition (“grant-eligible activities”) for an affordable
housing development on certain property (the “project”) within the city of St. Louis Park (the
“city”) to be developed by CB SLP Housing Limited Partnership, a Minnesota limited partnership
(the “developer”) on behalf of CommonBond Communities.
(b) On July 1, 2022, the authority and the developer entered into a loan agreement, as
amended by a first amendment to loan agreement, dated October 10, 2023 (collectively, the “loan
agreement”), pursuant to which the authority agreed to loan the grant funds to the developer to
finance the grant-eligible activities (the “lcda loan”). The lcda loan was secured by a promissory
note (the “lcda note”) and a mortgage on the development property (the “lcda mortgage”), both
from the developer to the authority and dated July 1, 2022.
(c) It was discovered that the lcda mortgage inadvertently contains the incorrect legal
description for the development property, and to correct the error, the developer has requested
that the authority execute a partial release of mortgage (the “partial release of mortgage”)
releasing and discharging from the lien of the mortgage a certain portion of the mortgaged
premises.
(d) On July 1, 2022, the authority, the city, and the developer entered into a contract
for private development whereby the authority agreed to make a loan from the city’s affordable
housing trust fund in the amount of $1,800,000 (the “ahtf loan”) for the costs of the project. The
ahtf loan was secured by a promissory note (the “ahtf note”) and a mortgage on the development
property (the “ahtf mortgage” and together with the lcda mortgage, the “mortgages”), both from
the developer to the authority and dated July 1, 2022.
(e) The developer plans to record an environmental covenant and easement on the
development property (the “environmental covenant”), as required by the Minnesota Pollution
Control Agency, and has requested the authority to execute consents of mortgagee (the
together, the “consent”) to record the environmental covenant and subordinate the mortgages
to the environmental covenant.

“American Indian Heritage Month”
Whereas, American Indian communities are an integral part of the diversity that makes
St. Louis Park a great place to experience life; and
Whereas, Minnesota celebrates American Indian Month in May to recognize and honor
American Indian cultures, contributions, history, traditions, art and land; and
Whereas, the lands that make up St. Louis Park are the ancestral and contemporary
homelands of different American Indian nations and communities, including the Dakota and
Anishinaabe; and
Whereas, American Indian entrepreneurs, educators, and community, spiritual and

Whereas, state and federally sanctioned laws and practices have contributed to the
historical and generational trauma and displacement of American Indian nations; and
Whereas, this month is an opportunity to take steps forward and work together to build
practices and policies that eliminate discrimination and promote understanding and respect of
American Indian communities and their tribal sovereignty.
Now, therefore, let it be known that the mayor and city council of the City of St. Louis
Park, Minnesota, hereby observe May 2024 as American Indian month in our community.
Wherefore, I set my hand and cause the

Title: Proclamation observing Jewish American Heritage Month
Recommended action: Mayor to read proclamation observing May as Jewish American heritage
month.
Policy consideration: None
Summary: Jewish American month is observed every May across the country and is especially
meaningful in our city where we have a vibrant and significant Jewish population. Jewish
migration to St. Louis Park was facilitated in part by access to homes that did not have
restrictive covenants against Jewish people, unlike other cities at the time. It has since become
a significant place of Jewish life in Minnesota, being home to several Jewish schools, businesses,
and communities. This month is a time to recognize the contributions of Jewish Americans and
culture in Minnesota.
Financial or budget considerations: None
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to being a leader in racial equity
and inclusion in order to create a more just and inclusive community for all.

April 1, 2024
The meeting convened at 5:30 p.m.
Council members present: Mayor Nadia Mohamed, Paul Baudhuin, Tim Brausen, Sue Budd,
Yolanda Farris, and Margaret Rog
Council members absent: Lynette Dumalag
Staff present: City manager (Ms. Keller), city assessor (Mr. Bultema), appraiser (Ms. Nathanson)
Discussion item
1.2024 market value update overview.
Mr. Bultema and Ms. Nathanson presented the report.
Council Member Brausen asked whether homestead filings are done at the county or at the city
level, since the county is taking over homestead. Mr. Bultema shared that if a property owner
would like to come into the city, staff will still see them at the front desk. He stated most of
those folks have either a technological or language barrier and prefer to work on homestead
filing questions in person.
Council Member Brausen asked if people should now be guided to complete homestead filings
online or at city hall. Mr. Bultema stated either way is acceptable, and the paper forms are still
available if needed.
Council Member Brausen asked about the median value of a unit and how many class A, B and
C units are in St. Louis Park. Ms. Nathanson stated about one-half of all units are class A and B,
and about one-half are class C. Mr. Bultema added the NOAH units are in line with the class C
units.
Council Member Brausen asked how many assessments, on average, go to the county board
each year. Mr. Bultema stated the average is between two to four, and most are resolved
before a hearing is necessary. He added it is the city’s desire to get to mutual agreement with
the homeowner. When the city and homeowner are not in agreement, then it must come to
the county board for review.
Council Member Rog asked if the board also reviews issues with commercial and industrial
properties. Mr. Bultema confirmed that they do. Ms. Nathanson added many of those
properties take their case to tax court, which is private and not a public process. She added that
homeowners can also go straight to tax court instead of to the board.

Title: Special city council study session meeting minutes of April 1, 2024
Council Member Baudhuin asked if price per square foot data is available compared to the
other cities in the area. Mr. Bultema confirmed that he can obtain this data but noted St. Louis
Park homes are smaller than Edina and Golden Valley homes, which affects price point.
Council Member Baudhuin asked if houses of worship are ever assessed for market value. Mr.
Bultema stated they are required to assess all parcels including non-profit parcels, houses of
worship, schools and some exempt areas of Methodist Hospital.
Council Member Budd asked about the line in the comparison chart noted as “suburban.” Mr.
Bultema stated that the chart represents all 47 suburban cities and the distinction is made
because Minneapolis is the economic engine of Hennepin County related to property tax.
Council Member Budd asked what the shaded neighborhood areas referenced. Mr. Bultema
stated that shading refers to the five-year review of a particular neighborhood. Postcards are
sent to all properties to alert residents that the city’s assessors will be in the neighborhood to
review properties. Photographs are taken for comparison over time.
Council Member Budd said it looks like St. Louis Park will attain $10 billion in market value, and
asked if this puts the city in a different class. Mr. Bultema clarified that it will not because a
city’s class, per statute, is population based vs. valuation based.

The motion passed 6-0 (Council Member Dumalag absent).
3. Presentations.
a.Discover St. Louis Park (DSLP) annual updated
Ms. Bakken presented the report. She shared a presentation and video that announced the
organization’s new name; Discover St. Louis Park is now known as Westopolis.
Following the presentation, Council Member Rog asked whether the increase in leads and
booked room nights, 35% and 34% respectively, increased the budget. Ms. Bakken agreed and
stated there is an increased budget but that leads do not always become actuals.
Council Member Rog recalled that in 2020, during COVID-19, DSLP had to cut staff and asked if
they have been able to build back the organization. Ms. Bakken confirmed this and explained
that they had gone from five employees, down to one, and are now back up to three
employees, adding that the organization feels very good about building back. She noted the
pandemic was a learning experience for DSLP where staffing was concerned.
City council meeting of May 6, 2024 (Item No. 4c) Page 2
Title: City council meeting minutes of April 1, 2024
Council Member Brausen shared that he is glad DSLP is building back up. Regarding the leads
data, he observed that 70% of the visiting demographic are female and 30% are male, noting
that is interesting. He stated the outreach being done is incredible, adding he has concerns
about the name change because they have done so much to build recognition with the current
name, but added he trusts Ms. Bakken’s judgement. He stated he is happy to see the positives
and also makes the case for a local city sale tax to capture revenue for infrastructure.
Council Member Rog asked Ms. Keller about the 5% the city retains of the city lodging tax and if
it is for public art and if that is still the case. Ms. Keller stated she will look into it and get back
to council on that.
Council Member Baudhuin expressed his thanks for Ms. Bakken’s work and asked if she knows
how the Wirth Park Cross Country Ski World Event impacted St. Louis Park and if there are
more conversations about more ski races at Wirth Park because of that success. Ms. Bakken
stated her inkling is yes there was impact in St. Louis Park and did really well in February 2024.
She stated they hosted the media in St. Louis Park hotels, and they had hoped to get the
athletes also, but did not this year. She stated there were many visitors and lots of dollars were
spent in St. Louis Park during this event.
Council Member Budd asked about the $985 noted in the report. Ms. Bakken explained the
State of MN Tourism office provides this number which points to the amount saved by
Minnesota households because it is collected by visitor generated taxes.
Mayor Mohamed stated she serves on the board of DSLP and added her congratulations on the
new name, which is very clever. She added she is very proud of the work being done here.
b. Presentation accepting monetary donation from the St. Louis Park Rotary Club for the
summer concert series ($3,000)
Mr. Brimeyer, 1306 Westwood Hills Road, noted he is the former city manager of St. Louis Park
and also served 8 years on the council. He added this is his second term as president of the St.
Louis Park Rotary. He explained they fund various projects such as STEP and have also raised
funds for projects including two sculptures at the Westwood Nature Center. He also noted
sponsorships with their raffle and presented the council with a $3,000 check for the St. Louis
Park summer concert series.
c. Presentation accepting a monetary donation from Maureen and John Drewitz for the
Access to Fun scholarship program ($600)
On behalf of the city council, Mayor Mohamed thanked Mr. and Mrs. Drewitz for their
donation.

Council Member Rog noted she attended and was impressed by an informational meeting with

community meetings in their new spaces.
Mayor Mohamed commented on item 5b related to Ms. Keller’s review, remarking on the
findings that Ms. Keller is well-suited to her position and scored high in all areas. Mayor
Mohamed added the council and staff appreciate Ms. Keller’s leadership. The salary cap for the
position of city manager was removed statewide in the 2023 legislative session, and like St.
Louis Park, many cities are reviewing their city manager’s compensation.
Mayor Mohamed remarked on item 5f, as it relates to her participation with a US delegation of
women mayors in Switzerland at the end of April. She looks forward to this experience and
opportunity to attend.
Council Member Brausen referenced the city manager’s performance evaluation. He shared the
results of the review were outstanding and increasing Ms. Keller’s salary to be commensurate
with other city managers in the area was necessary. He stated Ms. Keller is one of the best in
the business and is doing a great job. He shared that the city is lucky to have her, and thus
wanted to pay her appropriately.
Council Member Rog added that a focus on gender equity and pay scale was also something the
council considered in Ms. Keller’s salary increase.
It was moved by Council Member Brausen, seconded by Council Member Budd, to approve the
consent items as listed; and to waive reading of all resolutions and ordinances.
The motion passed 6-0 (Council Member Dumalag absent).

Title: Second reading and adoption of zoning text amendment pertaining to C-1 neighborhood
commercial zoning district
Recommended action: Motion to adopt second reading of an ordinance amending the zoning
ordinance pertaining to restaurants with intoxicating liquor located in the C -1 neighborhood
commercial zoning district and approve summary ordinance for publication.
Policy consideration: Should restaurants serving intoxicating liquor have a greater setback than
restaurants that serve either beer and wine or no alcohol at all?
Summary: The applicant requests a zoning text amendment to reduce the setback required for
restaurants with intoxicating liquor from residential zoned properties. The change would
reduce the setback from 100 feet to 25 feet and would apply to restaurants with intox icating
liquor within the C-1 neighborhood commercial zoning district. The city currently requires a 25-
foot setback from residential zoned properties for restaurants serving either no alcohol or
serving beer and wine only. The amendment, if approved, would require a 25-foot setback from
residential properties for any restaurant, whether it serves any type of alcohol or not , in the C-1
district.

Title: Resolution rescinding permit parking restrictions at 2841 Jersey Avenue - Ward 1
Recommended action: Motion to adopt resolution rescinding Resolution no. 20-161, removing
permit parking restrictions at 2841 Jersey Avenue.
Policy consideration: None
Summary: In April 2024, staff received a request from the resident residing next door to 2841
Jersey Avenue to remove the permit parking adjacent to the property, stating that it is no
longer needed at this address. Staff were able to reach the individual who had originally
requested the parking restriction and she confirmed there was no longer a need for it.
The parking was installed in 2020 following the city’s permit parking for persons with medical
needs practice through traffic study no. 743.
Engineering staff reviewed this request and recommends the removal of the permit parking.
This item is being brought to council since the permit parking was installed by resolution.
Future medical needs parking permits will be approved and removed administratively and not
brought to the council for action.
Financial or budget considerations: The cost to remove these controls is minimal and will come
out of the general operating budget.
Strategic priority consideration: Not applicable.

Executive summary
Title: Resolution establishing the Wolfe Park Streetlight Replacement project (5024-4101) –
Ward 2
Recommended action: Motion to adopt resolution accepting the project report, establishing
the Wolfe Park Streetlight Replacement project (5024-4101), approving plans and specifications
and authorizing advertisement for bids.
Policy consideration: Does the city council wish to pursue the Wolfe Park Streetlight
Replacement project?
Summary: The Public Works Department manages over 1,300 streetlights throughout the city.
Since 2013, the city has had an annual maintenance project that proactively replaces a
percentage of the high-pressure sodium (HPS) light fixtures with more energy-efficient light-
emitting diodes (LED). Light poles are replaced as they age beyond their life expectancy.
This year, the number of poles that need replacement is significantly higher than in previous
years. The commercial area along Park Center Boulevard and in Wolfe Park has a high
concentration of decorative concrete light poles that were all installed within a few years of
each other. Water intrusion and subsequent freeze-thaw cycles have caused some poles to fail
near the light fixture. Public works staff completed temporary repairs to prevent the light
fixtures from separating from the pole.
These poles have reached the end of life and need to be replaced. The deterioration at the top
of the light pole will require both the pole and light fixture to be removed and replaced. The
light pole will be removed and replaced with a similar height stainless steel pole. The light
fixture will also be replaced with a similar style LED light.
Financial or budget considerations: This project is included in the city's public works operating
budget for 2024. The total cost estimate for this project is $537,976.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing a variety of options for
people to make their way around the city comfortably, safely and reliably.

Title: Resolution establishing the Wolfe Park Streetlight Replacement project (5024-4101) – Ward 2
Discussion
Background: The Public Works Department manages over 1,300 streetlights throughout the
city. Since 2013, the city has had an annual maintenance project that proactively replaces a
percentage of the high-pressure sodium (HPS) light fixtures with more energy-efficient light-
emitting diodes (LED). In addition, light poles are replaced as they age beyond their life
expectancy.
This year, the number of poles that need replacement is significantly higher than in previous
years. The commercial area along Park Center Boulevard and in Wolfe Park (see attached map)
has a high concentration of decorative concrete light poles that were all installed within a few
years of each other. They have now reached the end of life and need to be replaced. These
concrete poles are deteriorating due to water intrusion near the top of the pole. Freeze-thaw
cycles have weakened the pole near the connection with the light fixture. The deterioration of
the concrete is considered a structural issue and has required public works staff to complete
temporary repairs to keep the lights attached to the poles.
Project scope: The deterioration at the top of the light pole will require both the pole and light
fixture to be removed and replaced. The light poles will be replaced with a similar height
stainless steel pole. The light fixture will be replaced with a similar style LED light. The poles will
remain in the current location and utilize the same foundation and electrical wiring. Public
works has prioritized the replacement of approximately 89 light poles that have structural
issues for replacement this year.
There are other decorative concrete poles along Excelsior Boulevard and near Excelsior and
Grand that have exhibited deterioration at the base. The bases of the poles have considerably
more reinforcing steel; thus, they do not require the same temporary repair or pose the same
level of structural deterioration. These poles are scheduled to be replaced in the coming years
as part of the proactive replacement schedule.
Financial or budget considerations: Public works has been budgeting for and replacing light
fixtures and poles on an annual basis since 2013. Typically, light pole and fixture replacement is
completed within the public works operations budget and is not brought to council for
approval.
However, due to the large number of poles experiencing structural deterioration, the cost to
complete the project is approximately three times greater than in a typical year. Since this
project is over $175,000, the city must follow competitive bidding requirements. The capital
improvement program (CIP) has identified $535,000 for this project. The engineer's estimate is
approximately $3,000 over the CIP amount. This is the first year that the city has programmed a
large streetlight and fixture replacement project. Due to the unique nature and size of this
project, staff used higher unit prices in the engineer's estimate. Staff will bring the bids to
council for approval on June 17.

Title: Resolution authorizing parking restrictions on the west side of Monitor Street south of
Lake Street – Ward 2
Recommended actions: Motion to adopt a resolution authorizing parking restrictions on the
west side of Monitor Street south of Lake Street.
Policy consideration: None
Summary: Concerns with vehicles parking along Monitor Street were first brought to the
engineering and police departments in 2023. Large commercial trucks were parking on the
street for periods of time that exceeded the city's 48-hour parking ordinance. The Police
Department completed directed patrol to address the long-term parking issues.
In early 2024, staff began receiving complaints that commercial trucks and personal vehicles
were parking on both sides of Monitor Street. This created a narrow roadway that didn't allow
enough space for larger trucks to make deliveries to the adjacent businesses or for city services
such as snow removal.
The traffic committee has reviewed this request and recommended prohibiting parking on the
west side of Monitor Street south of Lake Street. This would provide a clear width to allow
vehicles to access the adjacent businesses and still allow some on-street parking for commercial
and personal vehicles.
The properties adjacent to Monitor Street were contacted to gather feedback from the traffic
committee's recommendation to prohibit parking on the west side of Monitor Street.
Businesses on the west side of Monitor Street and at the south end of the street indicated they
were in favor of the traffic committee recommendation.
Financial or budget considerations: The cost of installing the signs to prohibit parking on the
west side of Monitor Street is estimated to be $1,500 and is expected to come from the general
operating budget. Similar traffic signs last roughly 10 years in the field.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing a variety of options for
people to make their way around the city comfortably, safely and reliably.

Title: Resolution authorizing parking restrictions on the west side of Monitor Street south of Lake Street – Ward 2
Discussion
Background: Complaints regarding parking of commercial vehicles parking along Monitor Street
were first brought to engineering in 2023. Large commercial trucks were exceeding the city's
48-hour parking ordinance. The Police Department completed directed patrol to address the
long-term parking issues. The increase in police education and enforcement addressed parking
concerns from adjacent property owners.
Staff continued to observe Monitor Street and in early 2024, staff witnessed an increase in
parking on both sides of the road. These observations were followed by complaints from the
adjacent property owners that parking on both sides of Monitor Street narrowed the road and
prevented commercial trucks from making deliveries to businesses along the street. In addition,
public works staff commented that it was difficult to remove snow when vehicles were parked
on both sides of the street.
Monitor Street is 24 feet wide. This is comparatively narrow for a street in a commercial/
industrial area. Monitor Street does not currently have any parking restrictions. Adjacent
commercial land use means a larger percentage of commercial vehicles are using the road to
access the nearby properties. When vehicles park on both sides of the road, it is challenging to
navigate the road or to turn in or out of the adjacent private property parking lots.
Traffic committee review and recommendation: The traffic committee is an internal employee
workgroup made up of engineering, public works, police and community development
department staff. The group meets monthly to discuss traffic requests from across the city and
makes recommendations on possible changes. Any official changes to traffic controls or parking
restrictions are ultimately approved by the city council.
The traffic committee reviewed the parking concerns and recommended prohibiting parking on
the west side of Monitor Street south of Lake Street. This would allow sufficient width for two-
way traffic and still allow one side to have on-street parking. The adjacent businesses have
large surface parking lots that provide adequate on-site parking and enough space to
accommodate shipping and receiving needs.
Community feedback: The properties adjacent to Monitor Street were contacted to gather
feedback prohibiting parking on the west side of Monitor Street. Businesses on the west side of
Monitor Street and at the south end of the street indicated they were in favor of the traffic
committee recommendation. They have large surface parking lots that do not require on-street
parking.
Next steps: The recommended action and attached resolution prohibit parking on the west side
of Monitor Street from Lake Street to the south end of the street. If the parking prohibitions on
the west side of Monitor Street are approved, no parking signage will be installed by mid-May.

Resolution No. 24-___
Authorizing parking restrictions on the
west side of Monitor Street south of Lake Street
Whereas, the City of St. Louis Park received a request to address on-street parking on
Monitor Street south of Lake Street; and
Whereas, and the properties adjacent to Monitor Street are zoned and used for
commercial/industrial purposes; and
Whereas, the street is needed for the adjacent business to receive deliveries; and
Whereas, the width of Monitor Street is 24 feet wide; and
Whereas, parking on both sides of the street prevents vehicles, including delivery
vehicles, from being able to navigate the road or to turn in and out of the adjacent properties;
and
Whereas, limiting parking to one side of the road will allow space for vehicles to access
the adjacent businesses.
Now therefore be it resolved by the city council of the City of St. Louis Park, Minnesota
that the engineering director is authorized to:
1. Prohibit parking on the west side of Monitor Street south of Lake Street.

Proposed Issue:
$3,265,000 General Obligation Bonds, Series 2024A
Purposes:
The proposed issue includes financing for the 2024 street rehabilitation and connect the Park projects
•County Minnetonka Blvd - $2,410,000
•Local Street Rehab (Area 2) Connect the Park- $280,000
•Local Street Rehab (Area 2) Living Streets - $575,000
Debt service will be paid from ad valorem property taxes.
Authority:
The Bonds are being issued pursuant to City Charter and Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 475.
The Bonds count against the Net Debt Limit of 3% of the estimated market value of taxable property in the
City, which is currently $292.466 million. Including this Bond issue, the City has $40.775 million in
outstanding debt that counts against this limit. This leaves approximately $248 million in unused debt
limit for the City.
The Bonds will be general obligations of the City for which its full faith, credit and taxing powers are
pledged.
Term/Call Feature:
The Bonds are being issued for a term of 16 years for the Minnetonka Blvd portion of the Bonds and five
years for the other two portions of the Bonds. Principal on the Bonds will be due on February 1 in the years
2026 through 2040. Interest will be due every six months beginning August 1, 2025.
The Bonds will be subject to prepayment at the discretion of the City on February 1, 2034 or any date thereafter.
Bank Qualification:
Because the City is expecting to issue no more than $10,000,000 in tax exempt debt during the calendar year,
the City will be able to designate the Bonds as “bank qualified” obligations. Bank qualified status broadens the
market for the Bonds, which can result in lower interest rates.

The City’s most recent bond issues were rated by S&P Global Ratings. The current rating on those bonds is
“AAA”. The City will request a new rating for the Bonds.
Basis for Recommendation:
Based on your objectives, financial situation and need, risk tolerance, liquidity needs, experience with
the issuance of Bonds and long-term financial capacity, as well as the tax status considerations related to the
Bonds and the structure, timing and other similar matters related to the Bonds, we are recommending the
issuance of Bonds as a suitable option.
Method of Sale/Placement:
We are recommending the Bonds be issued as municipal securities and offered through a competitive
underwriting process. You will solicit competitive bids, which we will compile on your behalf, for the purchase of
the Bonds from underwriters and banks.
An allowance for discount bidding will be incorporated in the terms of the issue. The discount is treated as an
interest item and provides the underwriter with all or a portion of their compensation in the transaction.
If the Bonds are purchased at a price greater than the minimum bid amount (maximum discount), the
unused allowance may be used to reduce your borrowing amount.
Premium Pricing:
In some cases, investors in municipal bonds prefer “premium” pricing structures. A premium is achieved when
the coupon for any maturity (the interest rate paid by the issuer) exceeds the yield to the investor, resulting in
a price paid that is greater than the face value of the bonds. The sum of the amounts paid in excess of
face value is considered “reoffering premium.” The underwriter of the bonds will retain a portion of this
reoffering premium as their compensation (or “discount”) but will pay the remainder of the premium to the City.
The amount of the premium varies, but it is not uncommon to see premiums for new issues in the range of
2.00% to 10.00% of the face amount of the issue. This means that an issuer with a $2,000,000 offering may
receive bids that result in proceeds of $2,040,000 to $2,200,000.
For this issue of Bonds we have been directed to use the net premium to reduce the size of the issue for the
project. The resulting adjustments may slightly change the true interest cost of the issue, either up or down.
The amount of premium can be restricted in the bid specifications. Restrictions on premium may result in
fewer bids, but may also eliminate large adjustments on the day of sale and unintended impacts with
respect to debt service payment. Ehlers will identify appropriate premium restrictions for the Bonds intended
to achieve the City’s objectives for this financing.

Review of Existing Debt:
We have reviewed all outstanding indebtedness for the City and find that there are no refunding
opportunities at this time.
We will continue to monitor the market and the call dates for the City’s outstanding debt and will alert you to any
future refunding opportunities.
Continuing Disclosure:
Because the City has more than $10,000,000 in outstanding debt (including this issue) and this issue is over
$1,000,000, the City will be agreeing to provide certain updated Annual Financial Information and its
Audited Financial Statement annually, as well as providing notices of the occurrence of certain reportable
events to the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (the “MSRB”), as required by rules of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC). The City is already obligated to provide such reports for its existing bonds, and has
contracted with Ehlers to prepare and file the reports.
Arbitrage Monitoring:
The City must ensure compliance with certain sections of the Internal Revenue Code and Treasury
Regulations (“Arbitrage Rules”) throughout the life of the issue to maintain the tax-exempt status of the Bonds.
These Arbitrage Rules apply to amounts held in construction, escrow, reserve, debt service account(s), etc.,
along with related investment income on each fund/account.
IRS audits will verify compliance with rebate, yield restriction and records retention requirements
within the Arbitrage Rules. The City’s specific arbitrage responsibilities will be detailed in the Tax Certificate
(the “Tax Compliance Document”) prepared by your Bond Attorney and provided at closing.
The Bonds may qualify for one or more exception(s) to the Arbitrage Rules by meeting 1) small issuer
exception, 2) spend down requirements, 3) bona fide debt service fund limits, 4) reasonable reserve
requirements, 5) expenditure within an available period limitations, 6) investments yield restrictions, 7) de
minimis rules, or; 8) borrower limited requirements.
An Ehlers arbitrage expert will contact the City within 30 days after the sale date to review the City’s specific
responsibilities for the Bonds. The City is currently receiving arbitrage services from Ehlers in relation to the
Bonds.
Investment of Bond Proceeds:
Ehlers can assist the City in developing a strategy to invest your Bond proceeds until the funds are needed
to pay project costs.
Other Service Providers:
This debt issuance will require the engagement of other public finance service providers. This section identifies
those other service providers, so Ehlers can coordinate their engagement on your behalf. Where you have
previously used a particular firm to provide a service, we have

assumed that you will continue that relationship. For services you have not previously required, we
have identified a service provider. Fees charged by these service providers will be paid from proceeds of the
obligation, unless you notify us that you wish to pay them from other sources. Our pre-sale bond sizing includes
a good faith estimate of these fees, but the final fees may vary. If you have any questions pertaining to the
identified service providers or their role, or if you would like to use a different service provider for any of the
listed services please contact us.

Discussion
Site location map.
Background: The drive-in restaurant was established in 1951. After being vacant for a few
years, it was acquired in 2008 by a new owner that remodeled and rebranded the site as Galaxy
Drive-In. The concept struggled as a seasonal restaurant, so a new plan to expand the building
and parking to allow it to be open year-round was approved in two steps in 2009 and 2010.
First, in 2009, the city approved the owner’s requests to:
1. Amend the comprehensive plan to change the land use guidance for the subject
property and the property to the west from low density residential to commercial.
2. Rezone the subject property and the property to the west from R-2 single-family
residential to C-1 neighborhood commercial.
The drive-in had been operating as a legally non-conforming use. Rezoning the property made
the use a legal and conforming use although some dimensional legal non-conformities
remained, including insufficient parking, parking lot setbacks, landscaping, etc.
Next, in 2010, the property owner proposed a new concept for the drive-in restaurant that
included expanding the building to include year-round seating, removing the house to the west
and expanding the parking lot onto that property. This proposal received several approvals, but
some have expired per city code regulations and the conditions of the approvals. Listed below
are the approvals and the present status of each.
1. A preliminary/final plat to combine the subject property with the property to the west.
The plat was never recorded, the properties were not combined and the plat approvals
expired.
2. A subdivision variance to not install a sidewalk along the frontage road. The subdivision
variance expired.
3. A variance to the parking lot yard requirements. This variance expired because the
parking lot was not constructed.
City council meeting of May 6, 2024 (Item No. 7a) Page 3
Title: Resolutions approving conditional use permits and variances – 3712 Quebec Ave. S, Wells Roadside – Ward 2
4. A conditional use permit to operate an in-vehicle service (drive-in restaurant). The
conditional use permit remains because the drive-in use has not been abandoned or
revoked. While the building has been vacant for a few years, it still exists as a drive-in
and has been marketed as such.
Present considerations: The proposed restaurant, Wells Roadside, is a dining concept where
people will either place their order at an order window or by an app. Either way, the food will
be picked up at the order window when it is ready. Alcoholic beverages will be ordered and
picked up at a separate window. Customers will take their order to the tables on the patios and
clear their own tables when finished eating. There will be no waitstaff, and at this time, the
drive-in model where people are served in their cars will not be utilized. It is anticipated that a
significant portion of the business will be carry-out. However, alcoholic beverages will not be
available for carry-out or in-vehicle service; they are for on-site consumption only.
Site and building changes: The owners propose several changes to the site and building. They
would reconstruct part of the parking lot to widen the drive-aisle to improve access to parking
spaces. The number of spaces that could be used for drive-in parking spaces would reduce from
15 to 10. The outdoor seating area would be maintained on the west side of the building and
would expand on the east side of the building. The overall outdoor seating would expand from
931 square feet to 2,095 square feet. They propose to remodel and expand the canopies on the
east and west side of the building. And finally, they intend to enclose the spaces below the
canopies during the winter and inclement weather to allow seating all year round.
Quebec Ave S Rhode Island Ave S 2010 Plan
City council meeting of May 6, 2024 (Item No. 7a) Page 4
Title: Resolutions approving conditional use permits and variances – 3712 Quebec Ave. S, Wells Roadside – Ward 2
Patio enclosure. The plan proposes to use a louvered roof system for the pergolas over the
patio areas so they can be open to the sky during the summer and closed during the winter to
provide shelter from the elements. In addition to the louvered roof system, the plan includes a
vinyl wall system around the perimeter of the patio that will roll down to fully enclose the
patios so they can be heated and occupied during the winter. While the building and energy
department determined that the proposed system meets the building code, they also note that
staff will work with the applicant to improve energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions as
much as possible.
The building and energy department provided the following review comments:
The proposed year-round restaurant building will need to meet the state building code. An
exception in the commercial energy code allows infrared heating (without restrictions on
time, permanence or portability, ambient temperature or duration of use) to be used when
heat is deemed necessary outside of any insulated building space. This design, while
permitted, is not consistent with the city climate action plan.
City staff does not have a basis to recommend denial of the application provided it meets
the minimum state code requirements. The next best course of action is to guide the
restaurant owners towards choosing the lowest greenhouse gas emitting heating solution.
The city’s sustainability manager recommends the restaurant owners install electrically
powered infrared heat lamps, ideally equipped with timer functionality and power settings.
As the electricity grid gets cleaner, these lamps will become less and less carbon intensive—
something that would not be true of gas-powered heat lamps. The heat lamps’ use could
also be offset with rooftop solar panels or purchased renewable energy. Further, electric
lamps do not require ventilation as there would be no products of combustion.
Pergola enclosure.

Title: Resolutions approving conditional use permits and variances – 3712 Quebec Ave. S, Wells Roadside – Ward 2
Restaurant with intoxicating liquor: The Wells Roadside concept includes beer and wine sales
for on-site consumption and wants to serve tap cocktail specialties. Tap cocktails refer to
premixed cocktails that are served out of a bulk container such as a tap or other type of
container. Alcoholic beverages would only be allowed in seating areas and would not be
allowed beyond the seating areas (exact boundaries to be defined in later the licensing process)
and would exclude vehicle parking areas, including the drive-in spaces if people choose to dine
in their vehicles.
A zoning text amendment would be required to allow a restaurant with intoxicating liquor on
this site, because it cannot meet one of the conditions of that use in the C-1 zoning district
which requires a 100 foot setback from residential zoned properties. The proposed zoning text
amendment would reduce the 100 foot setback to 25 feet. If approved, then the subject
property would meet the 25 foot setback. That request is being processed separately and
concurrently. The city council approved the first reading of the ordinance to reduce the
required setback to 25 feet at the April 1, 2024 city council meeting. The second reading is on
the consent agenda of the May 6, 2024 city council meeting. If approved, then the city council
may approve the conditional use permit to operate a restaurant with intoxicating liquor.

1 Existing building is legally non-conforming to the exterior materials requirement.
2 Variance required to reduce the number of required parking spaces.
Building materials. The existing building is legally non-conforming to the exterior materials
requirements of the zoning code. The zoning code requires at least 60% class 1 materials, which
includes materials such as glass, brick, stucco and other materials. While the building has some
glass, it is primarily prefinished metal, which is a class 2 material. The building can continue to
exist and be maintained as legally non-conforming to this requirement, so no changes to the
exterior are required.
As noted above, the existing canopies will be remodeled to replace the roof with a louvered
system that will be open to the sky during the summer and closed during the winter to provide
shelter from elements. In addition to the louver system on the roof, the proposal includes vinyl
sides that will roll down to fully enclose the patio space so the restaurant can be open all year
round. The proposed vinyl sides would be mostly transparent to preserve views into and out of
City council meeting of May 6, 2024 (Item No. 7a) Page 6
Title: Resolutions approving conditional use permits and variances – 3712 Quebec Ave. S, Wells Roadside – Ward 2
the patio space. The zoning ordinance allows temporary structures for up to 180 days per
calendar year, so the temporary siding does not need to meet the architectural exterior
requirements.
Height. The existing building is one story and approximately 10 feet in height. The plan does not
include any change to the building height. The maximum height allowed is 35 feet. The building
meets the height limits.
Parking. The zoning code requires one parking space per 100 square feet of building area for
fast food restaurants. Fast food restaurants include restaurants without waitstaff such as the
proposed Wells Roadside concept. For purposes of determining compliance with zoning related
items such as minimum required parking, the term building includes the kitchen area and the
patios covered by the canopies. These patios are included because they can provide shelter,
which meets the definition of “building” in the zoning ordinance. The building is approximately
2,800 square feet, and therefore requires 28 parking spaces. A 10% reduction is allowed for
proximity to transit to the west which reduces the parking requirement to 26 parking spaces.
There are 14 parking spaces proposed on the site, and three parking spaces available on
Quebec Avenue South directly adjacent to the property. This makes 17 parking spaces available
to count toward the minimum parking requirement. The site is nine parking spaces short of the
26 parking spaces required, and therefore needs a variance. Staff is recommending approval of
the variance, and the criteria for the variance is discussed below.
Bike parking. Sixteen bike parking spaces are required and 20 spaces are provided.
Electric vehicle charging stations (EVCS). The zoning code requires EVCS for parking lots
containing 15 or more parking spaces. The proposal has 14 parking spaces, therefore, EVCS are
not required.
Yards. As noted in the table above, the project complies with all minimum yard requirements
for the building.
The parking lot will be altered to remove parking spaces on the east side of the building and
move the curb along the north side closer to the property line. The parking lot on the west and
south side of the property will remain as is.
The zoning code requires the parking lot to be at least five feet from the north and east
property lines because they are adjacent to streets. The applicant proposes, however, to
expand the drive aisle on the north side of the building to improve access to the parking spaces
located on the north side of the building. This expansion will require a five-foot variance to the
required yard to allow the edge of the drive aisle to be located at the property line. The
variance request is analyzed later in the report.
An eight-foot yard is required to the property line to the south because it is adjacent to a
residentially zoned property. The current yard for the existing parking lot is approximately 4.5
feet. This yard is legally non-conforming and can continue as such without a variance.
City council meeting of May 6, 2024 (Item No. 7a) Page 7
Title: Resolutions approving conditional use permits and variances – 3712 Quebec Ave. S, Wells Roadside – Ward 2
A yard is not required to the west because it is adjacent to a property zoned C-1. The property
to the west is used as a single-family home, however, it was rezoned to C-1 neighborhood
commercial in 2009. The existing yard to the west is approximately two feet, so it meets the
yard requirement.
Landscaping. The zoning code requires one tree per 50 feet of site perimeter. Ten (10) trees are
required and 12 are proposed. The zoning ordinance also requires at least 60 shrubs and 65 are
proposed.
Screening. A six-foot privacy fence exists along the south and west property lines. There is also
some landscaping, however, the amount of landscaping that can be installed is limited by the
small yards as noted above. Screening of the parking lot to the property to the south is legally
non-conforming and can continue as is. The screening was enhanced in 2008 when the property
was remodeled into the current Galaxy Drive-In. Though not required, there is a six-foot-tall
privacy fence and some landscaping that screens the lot from the lot to the west.
Sidewalk. The zoning code requires commercial properties to have a sidewalk along all street
frontages. While the city granted a subdivision variance in 2010 to not install the sidewalk along
the north side, that variance has since expired because the plat it was approved with was never
recorded. Therefore, the city code requirement for the sidewalk needs to be met as illustrated
below:

Conditional use permit major amendment: The applicant requests an amendment to the
existing conditional use permit to replace the approved site plans with the site plans for the
proposed Wells Roadside concept. Staff finds the application meets the conditions specifically
required to operate in-vehicle sales and service, and the general conditions required for a
conditional use permit as discussed below.
Conditional use permit to allow in-vehicle sales or service: A conditional use permit to allow
in-vehicle sales or service was approved in 2010. The current application is to amend the
site plan that was approved in 2010 by removing the parking lot that was proposed on the
property to the west and expanding the patio area on the east side of the building. See
comparison of the 2010 plan and proposed plan above.
a. Drive-through facilities and stacking areas shall not be within 100 feet of any parcel that is
zoned residential and used or subdivided for residential use, or has an occupied institutional
building, including but not limited to schools, religious institutions, and community centers
unless the entire facility and stacking areas are separated from said parcel by a building
wall. The drive-in facility was constructed in 1951. The 100-foot setback was not required
at that time, and therefore, it does not meet this setback. As a result, it is legally non-
conforming to the 100-foot setback requirement, and the proposal would continue this
legal non-conformity.
b. Stacking shall be provided for six cars per customer service point and shall comply with all
yard requirements. Service has always been limited to vehicles parked adjacent to the
building. Therefore, a stacking lane has never been a part of the drive-in concept. This
condition does not apply.
c. This use shall only be permitted when it can be demonstrated that the operation will not
have a significant adverse effect on the existing level of service of adjacent streets and
intersections. This restaurant was constructed adjacent to residential properties and with
limited on-site parking. As a result, it has always relied on some traffic through the
neighborhood and some on-street parking. The requested improvements to cover the
patios so the restaurant can be open year-round will require a variance to the minimum
number of parking spaces required. The proposal requires 26 parking spaces, and it
provides 14 on-site parking spaces and three on-street parking spaces. If approved, it is
anticipated that the facility will continue to utilize on-street parking as it has historically,
with a potentially slight increase reliance on on-street parking. The difference being that the
facility will be open all year rather than being limited to during the summer only. As has
been demonstrated in the past, there is sufficient on-street parking to facilitate the use.
d. The drive-through facility shall be designed so it does not impede traffic or impair vehicular
and pedestrian traffic movement, or exacerbate the potential for pedestrian or vehicular
conflicts. The in-vehicle service does not impede the traffic flow on the site. Additionally,
the facility does not utilize a vehicle stacking area. Therefore, this condition is met.
e. Access shall be to a roadway identified in the comprehensive plan as a collector or arterial or
shall be otherwise located so that access can be provided without generating significant
traffic on local residential streets. The site direct has access to the Highway 7 frontage road.
City council meeting of May 6, 2024 (Item No. 7a) Page 10
Title: Resolutions approving conditional use permits and variances – 3712 Quebec Ave. S, Wells Roadside – Ward 2
f. Any canopy as part of this use shall be compatible with the architectural design and
materials of the principal structure. The canopy is existing. The proposed canopy will be
remodeled to be consistent with the new Wells Roadside concept with year-round use.
g. The use is in conformance with the comprehensive plan including any provisions of the
redevelopment chapter and the plan by neighborhood policies for the neighborhood in
which it is located and conditions of approval may be added as a means of satisfying this
requirement. The use conforms with the comprehensive plan.
Conditional use permit-restaurant with intoxicating liquor: A second conditional use permit is
requested to operate a restaurant with intoxicating liquor. The application does not meet the
current zoning requirements to operate a restaurant with intoxicating liquor because the
building is approximately 36 feet from a residential zoned property to the south, and therefore,
it does not meet the 100-foot setback from residential properties requirement. The applicant,
however, applied for an amendment to the zoning ordinance to reduce the 100-foot setback to
25 feet. If the zoning ordinance text amendment is approved, then the conditional use permit
application would meet the zoning requirements to operate a restaurant with intoxicating
liquor as summarized below:
a. Access shall be to a roadway identified in the comprehensive plan as a collector or arterial
or shall be otherwise located so that access can be provided without generating significant
traffic on local residential streets. The property has direct access to the Highway 7
frontage road.
b. Buildings shall be located a minimum of 100 feet from any parcel that is zoned residential
and used or subdivided for residential or has an occupied institutional building including
but not limited to a school, religious institution, or community center. The application does
not meet the 100-foot setback but would meet the new requirements if the code is
amended by ordinance to reduce this setback from 100 feet to 25 feet.
c. Separate pedestrian ways shall be constructed to allow for the separation of pedestrian
and vehicular movements within the parking lot. Pedestrian access is provided around the
building underneath the canopies.
d. The use is in conformance with the comprehensive plan including any provisions of the
redevelopment chapter and the plan by neighborhood policies for the neighborhood in
which it is located, and conditions of approval may be added as a means of satisfying this
requirement. The application is consistent with the comprehensive plan.
Below is a summary of how both conditional use permit applications meet the general criteria
required for approval of conditional use permits. The review assumes the city council will
approve the zoning text amendment based on vote for the first reading. If the city council does
not adopt the zoning text amendment, then council should deny conditional use permit to
operate a restaurant with intoxicating liquor because it would not meet the 100-foot setback
requirement.
City council meeting of May 6, 2024 (Item No. 7a) Page 11
Title: Resolutions approving conditional use permits and variances – 3712 Quebec Ave. S, Wells Roadside – Ward 2
1. Consistency with plans. It is consistent with and supportive of principles, goals,
objectives, land use designations, redevelopment plans, neighborhood objectives, and
implementation strategies of the comprehensive plan. The use of this property as a
restaurant is consistent with the comprehensive plan. The proposed building meets the
state building and energy code. Additionally, the building is small enough to not be
required to meet the city green building policy. City staff will work with the applicant to
encourage installing efficient infrared heating systems as recommended by the building
and energy department.
2. Nuisance. It is not detrimental to the health, safety, morals, and general welfare of the
community. It will not have undue adverse impacts on the use and enjoyment of
properties, existing and anticipated traffic conditions, parking facilities on adjacent
streets, and values of properties in close proximity to the conditional use. The restaurant
is adjacent to residential properties to the south, west and east. It was constructed in
1951 and has operated in a similar manner since. A review of aerial photos dating back
to 1957 shows that the site has consistently existed in some form as it currently stands,
and with limited on-site parking.
3. Compliance with code. It is consistent with the regulations, intent and purpose of city
code and the zoning district in which the conditional use is located. The proposed plan
meets the conditions required for a restaurant. It also meets the conditions for a
restaurant with intoxicating liquor only if the proposed text amendment to reduce the
100-foot setback to residential properties to 25 feet is approved.
In most other regards, the site meets code. There are some legally non-conforming
conditions to yard requirements, drive aisles width that exists, however, the proposal
includes improving some of these where they can. For example, a drive aisle on the
north side will be widened as much as possible. It is currently 10 feet wide and will be
widened to 17.8 feet. It cannot be widened any further because it is proposed to be
built to the property line with no setback and it is not allowed to extend over the
property line into the public right-of-way.
Variances to allow reduced yards, reduced drive aisle widths, and reduced parking are
requested. The variances are analyzed below. If city council approves the variances,
then this criteria for the conditional use permit review are met. If the variances are not
approved, then city council should deny the conditional use permits because the
proposal would not meet code requirements.
4. Consistency with service capacity. It will not have undue adverse impacts on governmental
facilities, services or improvements which are either existing or proposed. The proposal is
consistent with sewer and water service capacity.
5. Site design. As noted earlier, the restaurant has existed since 1951, the use is allowed,
and there are some existing legal non-conformities. The proposal seeks to expand the
patio area to the east and reconfigure the parking and access. The restaurant would be
open all year, instead of limited to summer months. These changes are mitigated by the
requested variances, and improvements to the flow of traffic through the site. The use
City council meeting of May 6, 2024 (Item No. 7a) Page 12
Title: Resolutions approving conditional use permits and variances – 3712 Quebec Ave. S, Wells Roadside – Ward 2
still, however, relies on on-street parking. This condition has existed for many years and
possibly since it was built in 1951.
6. Consistency with utilities. It is consistent with the city’s stormwater, sanitary sewer, and
water plans. The utilities have capacity for the proposed use.
Variances: The applicant is requesting the following variances:
1. A five-foot variance to the required five-foot yard for parking lots adjacent to public
right-of-way.
2. A seven-foot variance to allow a 17-foot wide drive aisle instead of the required 24 feet
for a drive aisle located along the north side of the property.
3. A variance to allow 17 parking spaces instead of the minimum 26 parking spaces
required.
When considering variances, zoning ordinance section 36-34(a)(2) requires that the city consider
the certain criteria listed in the ordinance. Below is a summary of staff’s findings for each of the
variances and for each of the criteria.
a. The effect of the proposed variance upon the health, safety, and welfare of the community.
Yard and aisle variance: These variances are needed to improve mobility around the
north side of the site and the ability to access parking spaces on the north side of the
building. The drive aisle is currently 10 feet, the required minimum width is 24 feet. The
24-foot width is needed to make turning movements into and out of parking spaces.
These variances would allow the drive aisle to be widened by five feet by reducing the
yard requirement to zero. Additional width is added to the drive aisle by converting the
parking spaces at the narrowest part of the drive aisle to compact parking spaces. The
variance along with the compact parking spaces results in a 17.8-foot-wide drive aisle.
The site has previously been operating with a legally non-conforming drive aisle. The
variances would remove the legal non-conformity by making it a legal 17.8-foot-wide
drive aisle.
Parking variance. The property currently has 14 parking spaces and is operating as a
seasonal drive-in with patio seating. The zoning ordinance does not have a parking
formula for a seasonal drive-in restaurant. Therefore, it is difficult to anticipate the
amount of traffic it will generate and the amount of parking required. The Wells
Roadside concept, however, converts the use to more of typical restaurant use by
enclosing the patios allowing the restaurant to be open all year round. As a result, the
city can apply the typical fast-food restaurant parking formula of one parking space per
100 square feet of building area to the concept. This generates the previously stated 26
parking spaces required for a restaurant of this size. While the conversion to a year-
round restaurant makes it difficult to compare the parking and traffic needs and impacts
to the previous drive-in, which also had patio seating, staff believes that the small size of
the restaurant, and the small size of the variance is reasonable to enable the existing
seasonal restaurant to convert to a year-round concept. Additionally, the variance to
improve access to on-site parking is expected to cause them to be used, when previously
they were not used due to their inaccessibility. Staff also believes that the impact will be

Title: Resolutions approving conditional use permits and variances – 3712 Quebec Ave. S, Wells Roadside – Ward 2
minimal compared to the summer traffic generated by the drive-in when it was
operating.
b. The request is in harmony with the general purposes and intent of the ordinance. All
three variances are intended to improve the operation and traffic flow of the existing
restaurant. In 2009, the city rezoned the property from R-2 single-family residential to C-
1 neighborhood commercial so that the use would be in harmony with the general
purposes and intent of the ordinance.
c. The request is consistent with the comprehensive plan. As previously noted, in 2009 the
land use designation of the property in the comprehensive plan was changed from low
density residential to commercial. As a result, the property is consistent with the
comprehensive plan.
d. The applicant for the variance establishes that there are practical difficulties in complying
with the zoning ordinance. “Practical difficulties,” as used in connection with the granting
of a variance, means that:
1. The property owner proposes to use the property for a land use permitted in the
zoning district in which the land is located. A variance can be requested for
dimensional items required in the zoning ordinance, including but not limited to
setbacks and height limitations.
Practical difficulties exist because the use is consistent with the C-1 neighborhood
commercial district. Restaurants with drive-ins are permitted in this district.
2. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to the property not
created by the landowner.
The restaurant was constructed in 1951 and changes to the site designed to
improve traffic flow and parking cannot be completed without the requested
variances. The site was constructed as a seasonal restaurant which creates
difficulties in maintaining staff to operate the restaurant.
3. The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality.
The yard and drive aisle width variance are on the north side of the building
adjacent to the Highway 7 frontage road. They will have no impact on the character
of the adjacent residential properties. The variance to reduce the number of
required parking spaces is needed due to the technicality of converting the
previously outdoor patio area to enclosed seating area. The variance request is also
precipitated by the fact that the patio area was expanded by approximately 1,456
square feet. As noted earlier it is difficult to compare the impact of the Wells
Roadside to the previously operating Galaxy Drive-In. It is expected that the Wells
Roadside concept may increase traffic and on-street parking, however, staff
believes there is sufficient parking in close proximity to the restaurant. It is also
expected that because of it being nestled in a neighborhood, many of the
customers will come from the neighborhood, and will arrive as pedestrians or by
bicycle.
City council meeting of May 6, 2024 (Item No. 7a) Page 14
Title: Resolutions approving conditional use permits and variances – 3712 Quebec Ave. S, Wells Roadside – Ward 2
4. Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties.
As noted throughout this summary, economic considerations alone do not
constitute the only reason for the request. It is expected, however, that the
previous seasonal concepts struggled due, in part, by the inability to provide staff
while school was in session. Converting to a year-round concept is expected to
alleviate this problem and make the site more financially viable.
5. Practical difficulties include inadequate access to direct sunlight for solar energy
systems. Access to sunlight for solar energy systems is not applicable to this
request.
e. There are circumstances unique to the property including the shape, topography, water
conditions, or other physical conditions unique to the property.
The restaurant is located on a small property. Improvements to traffic flow and parking
cannot be made without variances to the yard and drive aisle requirements. Additionally,
converting to a year-round concept changes how parking is calculated.
f. The granting of the variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a
substantial property right of the applicant.
The property has had difficulty operating as a seasonal restaurant. The original drive-in
was remodeled in 2010, however, that concept only lasted a couple years, and has been
vacant since it closed. Converting to a year-round restaurant is an important aspect to
operating a restaurant.
g. The granting of the variance will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to the
adjacent property, unreasonably increase the congestion in the public streets, increase
the danger of fire, or endanger public safety.
Granting the yard and drive aisle variances will not impact adjacent properties or cause
congestion in the streets, or otherwise endanger public safety.
Granting the variance to reduce the minimum number of required parking spaces may
increase impact traffic on adjacent streets. But it is difficult to determine if it will increase
traffic to the site. As noted earlier, it is anticipated that many of the customers will come
from the neighborhood as pedestrians or on bicycles. Additionally, the perception of
increased traffic is enhanced because the property has been vacant and the previous
business did not reach its expected potential and had to close down. Staff believes that
the Wells Roadside is a reasonable use of the existing drive-in and that the potential
traffic generated is acceptable given that most traffic will utilize the highway 7 frontage
road, and not drive through the neighborhood.
h. The granting of the variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant but is
necessary to alleviate a practical difficulty.
As previously noted, the yard and drive aisle variances are needed to improve traffic flow
on the north side of the building and to improve access to the parking spaces on the
north side of the building. Also, the parking variance is needed due to the proposed
conversion of the restaurant from a seasonal restaurant to a year-round restaurant.

Next steps: If the city council approves the applications, then the city will begin issuing permits.
The applicant hopes to be open in July of 2024.
Public outreach: A neighborhood meeting was conducted on March 19, 2024. Twenty-two
people attended the meeting. Generally, the neighborhood was in favor of the applications and
excited about its reopening. Concerns were expressed about traffic through the neighborhood
and the use of on-street parking. The majority supported the request for serving the specialty
cocktails, a couple people expressed concern about it.
Public hearing notices were mailed to property owners within 350 feet of the site and a sign
announcing the public hearing was posted on the property.
Comments were received at the public hearing regarding the applications. Please see the April 3
planning commission minutes for detailed comments. In summary, people spoke in favor of the
project and are excited to have the restaurant reopen. There were several comments received
expressing concerns about additional traffic brought to the neighborhood, specifically on
Quebec Ave S and the Alley between Quebec Ave S and Pennsylvania Ave S. Concerns were also
expressed about increased demand for on-street parking and past experiences residents had
with people blocking driveways. There was conversation about extending the sidewalk along
the south side of the frontage road from the subject property to Rhode Island Ave S to the
west. Some residents felt this sidewalk would increase safety for people walking to the
restaurant. One written response was received and is attached to the end of this report after
the planning commission minutes.

Minutes - April 3, 2024
Planning commission
Members present: Jim Beneke, Mia Divecha, Matt Eckholm, Katie Merten, Jan Youngquist
Members absent: Tom Weber
Staff present: Gary Morrison, Sean Walther
Guests: Luke Derheim, applicant
1. Call to order – roll call.
2. Approval of minutes – Mar. 20, 2024.
It was moved by Commissioner Eckholm, seconded by Commissioner Merten, to approve the
Mar. 20, 2024 minutes as presented. The motion passed unanimously.
3. Hearings.
3a. Zoning text amendment- restaurants with intoxicating liquor.
Applicant: Luke Derheim
Case No: 24-06-ZA
Mr. Morrison presented the staff report.
Commissioner Beneke asked for the definition of a restaurant vs. bar. Mr. Morrison stated
restaurant requires at least 50% of the proceeds to come from food, while a bar primarily
serves liquor, and the city of St. Louis Park does not allow a stand-alone bar.
Chair Divecha asked for clarification on the 25-foot set back if serving beer and wine, and if that
is set back from a residential property. Mr. Morrison stated that is correct. It is measured from
building wall to property line of a residentially zoned property.
Chair Divecha asked if this then removed the distinction between beer and wine and
intoxicating liquor and creates a consistent setback rule for these uses. Mr. Morrison stated
that is correct and pointed out the only difference remaining is that to serve intoxicating liquor
the owner would still need a conditional use permit.
Commissioner Youngquist asked if the beer and wine is limited to 3.2% alcohol. Mr. Morrison
stated it is not limited to 3.2%. He added beer and wine is licensed separately from intoxicating
liquor licenses.
Commissioner Youngquist asked why and when this distinction came about between beer and
wine and intoxicating liquor.
City council meeting of May 6, 2024 (Item No. 7a) Page 27
Title: Resolutions approving conditional use permits and variances – 3712 Quebec Ave. S, Wells Roadside – Ward 2
Mr. Morrison stated he did not know the history, but recognized the trend in city policy
decisions has been to relax restrictions and not differentiate them. Newer zoning districts do
not have a setback requirement.
Commissioner Merten asked if this approval would be 25 foot or 100 foot setback for both. Mr.
Morrison stated it would require a 25 foot for both restaurants with beer and wine, and
restaurants with intoxicating liquor.
Chair Divecha opened the public hearing.
There were no comments from the public.
Chair Divecha closed the public hearing.
Commissioner Eckholm stated the distinction here is irrelevant and noted he will support this.
Chair Divecha agreed.
Commissioner Youngquist added she also agreed, and noted there is really no distinction
between beer, wine and intoxicating liquor these days, and she will support this motion.
It was moved by Commissioner Merten, seconded by Commissioner Youngquist, to approve the
text amendment to reduce the 100-foot setback from residential properties to 25 feet for
restaurants with intoxicating liquor in the C-1 neighborhood commercial zoning district. The
motion passed unanimously.
3b. 3712 Quebec Ave S (Wells Roadside)- conditional use permits with variances
Applicant: Luke Derheim
Case No: 24-05-CUP, 24-09-CUP, 24-12-VAR
Mr. Morrison presented the staff report.
Commissioner Merten stated she only counted 13 parking spaces. Mr. Morrison stated that is
correct on this landscaping exhibit, however the site plan shows a 14th spot which he pointed
out on the plan slide.
Commissioner Merten asked where employees would park. Mr. Morrison stated the applicant
operates The Block Restaurant also, and he noted they negotiated shared parking agreements
at off-site parking lots for employees at that location and they are exploring similar agreements
for the Wells Roadside location at some of the offices located nearby. The goal is to preserve
the most convenient spaces for customers.
Commissioner Youngquist asked if parking is allowed on the frontage road at Hwy. 7 and
Quebec Ave. Mr. Morrison stated parking is not allowed there, and noted the road is narrow in
that location.
City council meeting of May 6, 2024 (Item No. 7a) Page 28
Title: Resolutions approving conditional use permits and variances – 3712 Quebec Ave. S, Wells Roadside – Ward 2
Commissioner Youngquist asked if there will be seating on the north side of the property. Mr.
Morrison pointed out the previous seating area on the grassy area on the north side of the
property will not be used, and noted the seating on the east side will be used.
Commissioner Youngquist asked if the existing seating on the north side is in the public right of
way. Mr. Morrison stated yes, it is. He added seating is allowed in public right of way with an
encroachment agreement. He noted this seating in the right of way and encroachment also
shows up on the east side of the property, adding that engineering staff have already reviewed
this seating on the east side of the lot that is proposed to remain, and they are fine with it. He
added there is also a short retaining wall which separates the east side seating area from the
sidewalk.
Chair Divecha asked about the additional property on the west and if that is out of scope. Mr.
Morrison stated that is correct and added the applicant is not pursuing the purchase of that
property.
Commissioner Beneke asked if the drive-in spaces are restricted only for those purposes or can
anyone park in those spaces. Mr. Morrison stated there is no proposal for drive-in spaces at this
time, so it will just be used as parking. He noted that the concept anticipates a lot of carry-out
service, so they may designate some spaces for short-term parking.
Chair Divecha opened the public hearing.
Russ Wilkinson, 3724 Pennsylvania Ave, stated he is two blocks to the east of the property. He
stated he has been in his home for 20 years and was there when the Galaxy opened. He stated
he understands this will go ahead and is a done deal, but he has concerns about parking. He
stated when Galaxy opened people drove all over their neighborhood, and in the alley behind
his home as well. He stated that traffic is a concern, and he noted he had placed cones in the
alley in the past to keep folks from driving there. He added at the last meeting they were told
100 people can sit at the site, and most cars would carry 2 people, so at capacity 2/3rds of the
parking would be in the neighborhood. He stated his neighbor had people parking blocking his
driveway and the owner then could not exit, and neighbors will have to compete for on street
parking spots. He stated this a concern, even though the owners have said it will be a quick
turnaround.
Bill Schwartz, 3715 Quebec Ave, stated he lives directly across the street and has been there 45
years, noting he was there when Wagner’s first came. He stated with seating for 100 people
and only parking for 14 cars, there will be parking on the streets. He stated he has a
handicapped parking sign in the front of his house, but that is ignored by most, even if police
are called. He added people drive down the alley like it is a racetrack and the house on the left
side has a daycare, so alcohol is not a good thing either with kids in the area. He stated when
Galaxy moved in the parking changed and made it worse, and added this is not set up for what
they want to do. He stated he totally opposes this project and added every time there is a
change the situation gets worse and the parking is insane. He noted his parked car was hit twice
last year. He added there are no handicapped parking spots either and for 100 people, which is
required.

Title: Resolutions approving conditional use permits and variances – 3712 Quebec Ave. S, Wells Roadside – Ward 2
Michelle Gallagher, 3726 Rhode Island Ave, stated she is one street over from the project and is
for the project, adding she is happy the clientele will be much different than when it was
Galaxy. She stated cars idling all day and the constant parades was frustrating as a neighbor and
now having the grab and go will be better. She stated the owners make it very clear what their
intentions are at their restaurants, and it will be for dining, having a glass of wine or beer and
leaving. She stated her concern is the sidewalk along the frontage road and was not sure if they
plan to build a sidewalk. She stated a sidewalk is needed there for pedestrian and bike safety.
She stated overall she and her neighbors are excited about it and hope there will be a sidewalk
included, as she and other neighbors will be walking to the site.
Jamie Betterly, 3726 Rhode Island Ave, stated she understands the concerns of other neighbors,
adding this model is different from those in the past. She stated Galaxy drew a car crowd, with
cars idling and sitting for hours with no food orders, and this will be a come and go type place.
She stated Galaxy was a disappointment. With the owners of Wells, they are very
straightforward with their plans. She noted other neighbors are happy also to not have to cross
Texas and Highway 7 to get to a restaurant, and they are happy to be able to walk or bike to it
and gather. She added the location already exists and it will be utilized in a better way, so there
is excitement about the project, and concern that a sidewalk be built.
Chair Divecha closed the public hearing.
Chair Divecha asked for clarification on the sidewalk variance. Mr. Morrison stated with a plat, a
sidewalk is required along all of the street frontages. When the plat was submitted in 2006 it
included the property to west, and the city council granted a variance to not install the required
sidewalk along the frontage road. He added for this proposal staff discussed a sidewalk on the
frontage road and noted the city can require conditions to mitigate issues created by the
conditional use permit or parking variance, if granted. Because the variance would reduce on-
site parking, a sidewalk could be required as a condition of approval recognizing it will generate
on-street parking and pedestrian traffic from the neighborhood to the site. However, he stated
the number of mature trees that would have to be removed would be significant. The tree
removal, replacement tree plantings, payment of fees in-lieu of new plantings and grading
and/or retaining walls that would be needed all add to the impacts and costs of sidewalk
construction. Therefore, it was not recommended by planning staff that a sidewalk be required.
Chair Divecha asked if there is sidewalk at all there now. Mr. Morrison stated there is not a
sidewalk on the frontage road.
Commissioner Eckholm asked about connecting Quebec Ave to the Cedar Lake Trail to the
south, and if wayfinding could be improved. He noted there is an entrance to the trail at Rhode
Island south, and then over Lake St. and to Quebec Ave. He asked if there is some way to
connect from the midtown greenway to connect here and cut down on the parking stress as
much as possible.
Chair Divecha asked if cars are allowed to idle when in the drive-up spots. Mr. Morrison stated
there is no ordinance about idling for the general public in the city. Commissioner Merten
stated there are informational signs around the city about idling and there was a campaign in
the city last year.

Title: Resolutions approving conditional use permits and variances – 3712 Quebec Ave. S, Wells Roadside – Ward 2
Chair Divecha stated she would encourage the applicant to put up no idling signs, for pollution’s
sake and also with food being served right there.
Chair Divecha asked about the drive-in spots. Mr. Morrison stated there will be no service to
drive-in spaces at this time, but the applicant did want to have this option included for the
future. He stated the parking on the north side is not drive-in, but parking spots only.
Commissioner Youngquist asked the applicant, Luke Derheim, several questions. She asked
about hours of operation. Mr. Derheim stated during the week it will be 11 a.m. – 10 p.m. for
winter and in summer open until 11 p.m. on Friday and Saturday nights, and potentially
opening Saturday and Sunday at 9 a.m. for breakfast. He stated this will be their first quick
service model with this type of project and different equipment for quicker cooking, with the
goal of providing fast service at a high value. He stated they want to address the parking also
and have quick app ordering with pick up and go, or ordering with drive-up, to keep things
moving in a fast, efficient and high-quality fashion.
Commissioner Youngquist asked if there will be any indoor seating. Mr. Derheim stated seating
will be all patio seating but with the ability to have drop down walls for the winter months, to
create an outdoor/indoor feel.
Commissioner Youngquist asked about protections for buying alcohol. Mr. Derheim stated they
will have a walk-up area and all beer or wine must be ordered there, at the window, and the
beverage will be handed to the individual, with ID required. He added there also will be no “to-
go” beer or wine orders.
Commissioner Merten asked if the louvers could be closed if it is raining. Mr. Derheim stated
yes, that is correct, adding they have had great success with them in a patio environment.
Chair Divecha asked about the walkability piece. Mr. Derheim stated they believe it is definitely
walkable, and noted the biggest thing is their staff is not parking on the site and are working
with properties to the east to find spots there. He stated they feel people will walk to the
location if the concept is good. He stated there are a lot of areas for off-site parking.
Chair Divecha stated in general she is in favor of this especially with the walkability and agrees
with the changes to parking to make things easier. She noted she is not interested in requiring
more parking, adding there may be an impact to the neighborhood, but added it is not
unreasonable and is worth the hassle. She added the walkability, and safety is worth discussion.
Commissioner Merten stated this might be an attraction for a while and added people do not
drive 25 mph on the Frontage Road and also, she has concerns about people speeding down
Quebec, Rhode Island and Pennsylvania Avenues as well. She added she is not certain signs will
do that much and has concerns.
Commissioner Eckholm asked when the frontage road might be up for reconstruction, and as it
relates to speeding. Mr. Morrison stated at this point, there are no plans for reconstruction
there.

Title: Resolutions approving conditional use permits and variances – 3712 Quebec Ave. S, Wells Roadside – Ward 2
Chair Divecha asked if a sidewalk were proposed, would it only be related to this property area
and no continuous sidewalk. Mr. Morrison stated yes, that is correct and also noted the city’s
sidewalk improvement program, and this is the program where sidewalks are added as needed.
Commissioner Youngquist asked if this frontage road was part of the Connect the Park plan. Mr.
Walther stated it was not included in the Connect the Park plan, favoring connections to the
south instead. This area is not included in the 10-year capital improvement plan. He added it
would be unusual but not entirely unheard of to require improvements beyond the boundaries
of the lot, so it is common for a commercial use to build sidewalk adjacent to their use, but that
would stop at the property line. What neighbors are asking is to require sidewalk to be built
west to the next street. Either way, the sidewalk would not go east-west beyond this lot or
block. He noted each step the city takes that goes beyond the norm for conditions of approval
would have a higher standard to justify that.
Commissioner Eckholm stated any talk about walkability should be on the connection from the
south and there is a good walkable grid of streets there, adding there may need to be an
addition of signs on the Frontage Road so that folks know there is a safe way to get there.
Chair Divecha noted Mr. Schwartz comments and stated he is welcome to contact his city
council member related to parking issues in front of his home.
Commissioner Beneke stated he likes this project in general and the connections to walking. He
added he can see where parking may be an issue there but is not sure what more could be
done to improve it any better and added he will support it.
Commissioner Merten agreed this is a good solution at this location. She noted she understands
the city cannot require the applicant to do anything about the sidewalks here, but added it is
worth some conversations about how to improve this, so no one gets hurt on their way to the
location.
Commissioner Eckholm stated there are few ways this could be structured, but this plan is good
for this location, with a neighborhood restaurant and with recognition of what this site is and
what it is not. He stated this has a good shot at working and he will support it.
Chair Divecha added there will be an impact with parking and it is challenging, but she noted
the vision for the city is not lots of restaurants with parking lots adding the vision is density and
encouraging people to walk and bike to locations, which is good for affordability and livability.
Commissioner Youngquist added she likes the idea of the project and is familiar with the
applicant’s other restaurants, noting they do a good job. She stated her concern is that the
seating is outside and with alcohol and also the later summer hours and with potential of noise,
she is wondering if the city has noise ordinances. She noted she has concerns about noise with
the single-family homes across the street.
Mr. Morrison stated the city does have a noise ordinance that would apply to music or a loud
party at a residence, adding he is not sure how effective it would be for normal conversation at
a patio in a business setting.

Mr. Walther noted C1 district also has restrictions on hours of operation and does allow for
operations after midnight without a conditional use permit. He added the shorter hours of
operation being proposed are welcome compared to what the district would allow.
It was moved by Commissioner Beneke, seconded by Commissioner Eckholm, to table
consideration to the April 17, 2024 planning commission meeting so staff can confirm proposal
will meet building code requirements. The motion passed unanimously.
4. Other Business – none.
5. Communications.
Mr. Walther noted the previous tabled item will be on the planning commission’s April 17
agenda and there will be a study session following the regular meeting to discuss the Arrive and
Thrive planning process. He added staff does expect the zoning ordinance to go to the April 15
city council meeting, and if approved, a second reading would be held on May 6. The Wells
Roadside CUP and variance requests would likely also be on the May 6 council agenda.
6. Adjournment – 7:21 p.m.

3712 Quebec Ave S (Wells Roadside) – conditional use permits with variances
Applicant: Luke Derheim
Case No: 24-05 – CUP, 24-09- CUP, 24-12-VAR
Mr. Morrison presented the staff report.
Commissioner Beneke asked about the sidewalk, and if it would be easier to extend it in the
future. Mr. Morrison stated yes and added the city requires sidewalk along the street front of
all commercial properties so that is why it is a condition of requirement for a portion of the
sidewalk adjacent to the property. He added however the extension to the south cannot be
required by the city, and therefore are not requiring approval of this, but could be extended in
the future.
Commissioner Merten asked if the city could require the sidewalk, and also if technically the
property owner has a say as that is a lot of shade. Mr. Morrison stated that could be considered
as the sidewalk is in the public right of way. He added the trees are also in the public right of
way. He added if trees were removed that would impact screening on Hwy. 7 and would be
costly.
Commissioner Youngquist noted at the public hearing neighbors were concerned about traffic
and walking, adding she is sensitive to that. She asked being that there is public right of way
there, would the city consider putting signage that says to watch for pedestrians if this is to be a
walkable destination. Mr. Morrison stated there is traffic committee that does review issues
City council meeting of May 6, 2024 (Item No. 7a) Page 34
Title: Resolutions approving conditional use permits and variances – 3712 Quebec Ave. S, Wells Roadside – Ward 2
like this, adding the committee has already been alerted about this, and they will help to look at
ideas to mitigate impacts.
Commissioner Eckholm asked if this sidewalk were added to Connect the Park would be a low
priority and would it be implemented in the 2030’s. Mr. Morrison stated typically sidewalk
improvements are made when street improvements are made, otherwise priority areas have
been schools and other key destinations and other areas where there needs to be safe
pedestrian connections.
Commissioner Eckholm asked if there would be any improvements to the frontage road in the
near future. Mr. Morrison stated there will not be any in the near future.
Commissioner Merten stated residents that spoke at the public hearing stated they are
interested in a sidewalk there, adding she would agree with that need.
Commissioner Eckholm asked about the applicant’s discussions with property owners to the
east about a parking arrangement, and if there could be a sidewalk extension in the direction of
where a parking lot would be. Mr. Morrison stated there are no parking agreements set up as
yet and he noted the commission would need to consider the expressed needs for the sidewalk.
He stated if there were significant parking on Rhode Island Ave. there could then be terms for a
variance adding it would have to be justified.
Commissioner Eckholm stated he is asking about this because he would hope if the applicant
would need to pay for additional sidewalk, he would want it to be where there would be the
most use.
Commissioner Weber asked about the traffic committee and if they also look at other traffic
calming or speed bumps or lower speed limits in the area. Mr. Morrison stated these can be
brought to that committee, although the speed limit was already reduced within the city limits
recently and speed bumps are not allowed in the right of way. He stated the committee will
look at signage as well as other items.
Commissioner Eckholm asked about the city restriping the road to barricade part of it off or
adding temporary bollards. Mr. Morrison stated these items can be looked at by the committee
to see if there are things that could be done in the interim and if there will be future street
improvements.
Chair Divecha asked about the downside of adding this to the variance. Mr. Morrison stated the
cost is a consideration and noted it could be as much as $70,000 with sidewalk construction,
tree removal and tree replacement fees, as well as impact to the neighboring property owner
losing screening of the trees.
Commissioner Merten asked if in five years this restaurant gains great popularity and is very
busy, can the property owner come back to the city and show that there are traffic concerns,
and then ask for a solution at that time. Mr. Morrison stated yes, staff is always open to hearing
ideas and added this is the purpose of the traffic committee as well.
City council meeting of May 6, 2024 (Item No. 7a) Page 35
Title: Resolutions approving conditional use permits and variances – 3712 Quebec Ave. S, Wells Roadside – Ward 2
It was moved by Commissioner Weber, seconded by Commissioner Merten, to approve a major
amendment to operate a drive-in with conditions recommended by staff; to approve a
conditional use permit (CUP) to operate a restaurant with intoxicating liquor with conditions
recommended by staff; and to approve variances to driveway yard requirements, drive-aisle
width requirement, and minimum number of parking required with conditions recommended by
staff. The motion passed unanimously.
11. Communications.
Mr. Walther noted the next meeting is May 1, which will be a study session only. He added the
city is considering amending the tree preservation ordinance and staff would like to update the
commissioners about the Arrive and Thrive planning process. He noted tonight’s item is
scheduled for May 6 at the city council meeting.
Mr. Walther also noted there is a vacancy on the planning commission and those interested can
apply on the city website. He stated the application deadline is May 30.
12. Adjournment – 6:21 p.m.

PMy name is and for the last 45 years my wife and I have lived directly across Quebec from the drive in.
We have seen a lot of changes in that time,with numerous tenants.Since Wagner's left,most changes have been
detrimental for the neighborhood,such as:
extremely bad parking problems
loud music
loud cars and motorcycles
bright lights
badly designed parking areas
extreme lack of parking places for patrons
trash that finds it way into adjacent yards
Now they want to add indoor seating for over 100 people with only 14 parking spaces (with no handicap parking).
They want to add beer and wine to the menu,which will increase the length of stay by patrons.As a result,this could
have impaired drivers in our neighborhood
that has many young children.The business will be surrounded on three sides by family homes unlike any of their other
locations.
I have permit parking in front of my house because I am handicapped,which is routinely ignored by patrons.
When the police are called about this,they do not even ticket these patrons.
I am also afraid that the resale values of nearby homes will be negatively impacted.
This is NOT a good location for this type of restaurant!!
I hope you would consider the taxpayers surrounding Wells Roadside and notjust the opportunity for a new business.

Meeting: City council
Meeting date: May 6, 2024
Action agenda item: 7b
Executive summary
Title: Resolution approving conditional use permit for fill and reclamation - 6300 Walker Street -
Ward 2
Recommended action: Motion to adopt Resolution approving the conditional use permit for
6300 Walker Street subject to the conditions recommended by staff.
Policy consideration: Does the conditional use permit meet code requirements? Does city
council approve of the use of a MNTrust escrow account for the performance guarantee?
Summary: Cuningham Group, on behalf of St. Louis Park Public Schools, applied for a
conditional use permit (CUP) for the movement of more than 400 cubic feet of fill on the site at
6300 Walker St. to meet watershed district stormwater management requirements for the
district’s campus in this area and the district will undertake other site and building
improvements at Central Community Center.
The site work includes east parking lot reconfiguration with added underground stormwater
sand filtration chambers, new site lighting and plantings, installation of underground iron
enhanced sand filtration chambers beneath south parking lot and removal of an existing
underground fuel tank.
The site work to reconfigure the east and south parking areas and add underground sand
filtration chambers requires a conditional use permit (CUP).
Financial or budget considerations: None.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing a broad range of
housing and neighborhood oriented development.
Supporting documents: Discussion, draft resolution, excerpt of planning commission minutes,
site plans

Site information:
Site area (acres): 5.87
Current use: Surrounding land uses:
Early childhood education, medical
clinic, administrative offices, gym and
pool
North: residential
East: residential, commercial
South: Highway 7

Background: The building at 6300 Walker Street has been used as a middle school, community
center, Park Spanish Immersion (PSI) elementary school, and early childhood learning. The
school district currently uses the building for its administrative offices, early childhood learning
and community center.
Present considerations: St. Louis Park Public Schools applied for a conditional use permit (CUP)
to move fill on the site at 6300 Walker St. to meet watershed district stormwater management
requirements for the district’s campus in this area and the district will undertake other site and
building improvements at Central Community Center. The project includes a full remodel of the

building's lower level men’s and women’s locker rooms and added family locker rooms, added
wheel chair lift from locker rooms to the pool deck, mechanical pool systems upgrades,
remodel of three gym spaces, added board room/training room, 55-square-foot delivery dock
addition within the existing footprint, east parking lot reconfiguration with added underground
stormwater sand filtration chambers, new site lighting and plantings, installation of
underground iron enhanced sand filtration chambers beneath south parking lot, new
mechanical systems and two new hot water boilers, removal of an existing underground fuel
tank, and new lighting and technology throughout interior remodeled spaces.
The site work to reconfigure the east and south parking areas and add underground sand
filtration chambers requires a conditional use permit (CUP).
Performance guarantee: The school district requests an alternative method to meet city
performance guarantee requirements for installation of certain off-site public improvements
and school district site improvements. The school district proposes setting up a MNTrust
escrow account containing the funds for these improvements. The proposed escrow account
does not fully satisfy the city’s interests in the event the project does not perform. It limits the
city’s ability to resolve issues and increases the city’s risk by not collecting the traditional
security. However, the school district is a public institution and government entity that
maintains a long-standing cooperative relationship with the city. The city has previously
approved this approach for the high school and data center projects.
Zoning analysis:
Off-street parking: The site work related to the CUP is located primarily on the east parking lot
and south parking lot. To accommodate the new underground filtration chambers for
stormwater management, both parking lots are proposed to be removed and reconstructed. As
they are to be reconstructed, current parking design standards apply to this work.
For the east parking lot, the existing lot has 116 parking spaces. The owners propose
reorienting the drive aisles for better circulation. The new layout has 101 parking spaces within
the same boundaries. The south parking area currently has 41 parking spaces. The applicant
proposes to remove one parking space in that area to accommodate a landscaped island.
Serving this use is also the west parking area, which was built four years ago and has 49 parking
spaces. No changes are proposed to this parking area. Finally, the building is currently served by
on-street parking spaces along the north side of 35th Street West, the east side of Dakota
Avenue South and the north side of Walker Street.
Even with the reduction of the parking spaces in the east and south lots, the parking counts for
the entire site meets city requirements for the MX-2 district.
EV charging stations: The applicant proposes the addition of 6 EV charging stations to the east
parking lot, along with capabilities to expand EV charging in the future to more spaces in the
east parking lot. Future EV charging capabilities are also proposed for the west parking lot.
City council meeting of May 6, 2024 (Item No. 7b) Page 4
Title: Resolution approving conditional use permit for fill and reclamation - 6300 Walker Street - Ward 2
Landscaping and tree replacement: City code requires that off-street parking areas have
landscaped islands with canopy trees and have screening, in the form of shrubs, hedges, or
walls, between the parking lot and public right of way. The proposed landscape plan meets tree
and shrub minimum planting requirements.
City code requires that any trees that are removed from private land shall be replaced
according to the following formula:
((A/B)-0.20) x C x A = D
A = Total diameter inches of significant trees lost as a result of land alteration or removal.
B = Total diameter inches of significant trees situated on the land.
C = Tree replacement constant (1.5).
D = Replacement trees (number of caliper inches).
The applicant has shown that three private trees are proposed to be removed as part of this
project, accounting for 23 caliper inches removed. The applicant is proposing the planting of 17
trees, totaling 45 caliper inches, as part of this project, meeting city tree replacement
requirements.
Stormwater management: The project includes two new underground stormwater detention
chambers to treat stormwater on the site. Staff find the proposed plan is sufficient to treat
stormwater from the site and meets city rate control standards. A Minnehaha Creek Watershed
District stormwater management permit will be required prior to city building and erosion
control permits are issued for the project.
Lighting: The photometric plans for the east and south parking lots meet city requirements for
outdoor lighting.
Utilities: Staff find that the existing city utilities have capacity for the proposed building
improvements. The plans propose to make new stormwater connections to Minnesota
Department of Transportation (MNDOT) owned storm sewer infrastructure. A MNDOT drainage
permit will be required prior to the city issuing erosion control permits for the project.
Conditional use permit: Section 36-79(a) requires a conditional use permit when a project
moves more than 400 cubic yards of fill. Staff find the application meets the following general
requirements for conditional use permits:
1. Consistency with plans. The proposed use of this property is consistent with and
supportive of principles, goals, objectives, land use designations, redevelopment plans,
neighborhood objectives, and implementation strategies of the comprehensive plan. The
property is guided civic and the use is consistent with the plan.
2. Nuisance. It is not detrimental to the health, safety, morals and general welfare of the
community as a whole. It will not have undue adverse impacts on the use and enjoyment
of properties, existing and anticipated traffic conditions, parking facilities on adjacent
streets, and values of properties in close proximity to the conditional use. There are no
adverse impacts anticipated due to this project.
3. Compliance with code. It is consistent with the regulations, intent and purpose of City
Code and the zoning district in which the conditional use is located. The proposed plan
City council meeting of May 6, 2024 (Item No. 7b) Page 5
Title: Resolution approving conditional use permit for fill and reclamation - 6300 Walker Street - Ward 2
meets the conditions required of conditional use permits. The MX-2 zoning district
permits office, group day care, private indoor entertainment and medical office uses.
4. Consistency with service capacity. It will not have undue adverse impacts on
governmental facilities, services or improvements which are either existing or proposed.
Services will not be impacted by the proposed educational facility.
5. Site design. It is consistent with code requirements for parking, circulation, landscaping,
and stormwater treatment and retention. The site design meets city requirements.
6. Consistency with utilities. It is consistent with the City’s stormwater, sanitary sewer, and
water plans. On-site stormwater management improvements will be made as part of
the site improvements. The utilities have capacity for the use. The proposed design is
consistent with all city plans.

Meeting: Special study session
Meeting date: May 6, 2024
Discussion item: 2
Executive summary
Title: Utility risk assessment update
Recommended action: None. The purpose of this discussion is to provide the city council with
an overview of the findings of the recently completed utility risk assessment study.
Policy consideration: None at this time.
Summary: Last year, staff hired a consultant to complete a citywide risk assessment of the
sanitary sewer and water pipe delivery networks to assist with decision-making and identifying
additional capital investment.
This is the third of four discussions surrounding engineering infrastructure projects. Topics
included in this discussion are:
Infrastructure project
development process
An in-depth overview of the engineering portion of the existing
10-year CIP, how it was developed, what is included and who it
serves.
Engineering projects not in
the 10-year capital plan
An overview of engineering infrastructure projects and project
types not currently included in the 10-year CIP.
Utility risk assessment study
review
The findings of the recently completed Utility risk assessment
study.
Future infrastructure project
planning
Discussion of engineering staff's approach to modifying the 10 -
year CIP based on:
•Infrastructure projects not currently in the CIP
•The utility risk assessment study
Financial or budget considerations: The city's overall 10-year CIP includes almost $287 million
in improvements. The engineering department is responsible for the delivery of almost $200
million in projects, which is about 70% of the total CIP. The forecast for the overall property tax
levy assumes funding for the projects already included in the CIP and will require levy increases
of an average of 5.5 percent each year without any new projects. Modifying the engineering
department CIP will require an extensive review of available funding to identify if additional
funding is needed and review of staff workload to determine if these projects can be delivered.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing a variety of options for
people to make their way around the city comfortably, safely and reliably.

Title: Utility risk assessment update
Discussion
Background: In May 2022, 54 properties in the Oak Hill Park and Texa Tonka neighborhoods
were affected by a watermain break on Minnetonka Boulevard between Texas and Sumter
avenues. A 12-inch watermain ruptured and flowed underground through the sanitary sewer,
emerging in the basements of nearby homes. Two weeks later, in early June, the same
watermain ruptured, affecting a portion of the homes that had been affected by the first break.
Watermain breaks are not uncommon occurrences in St. Louis Park or in other cities across the
nation. In most cases, they are quickly fixed and cause little or no damage to properties. What
made these watermain breaks unique was the way the water traveled. Most watermain breaks
result in water flowing to the surface and overland and are quickly spotted and fixed. In this
case, the water flowed underground and then broke into the sanitary sewer main. This allowed
the escaping water to travel through sanitary sewer pipes and into homes, eventually emerging
through basement drains.
Since these watermain breaks happened, the city's primary focus in this area has been caring
for affected residents and helping them understand the insurance claim and city
reimbursement processes to repair their homes. The city also continues to focus on its ongoing
commitment to planning proactively to manage infrastructure investment. This report
summarizes the status of staff's efforts in this area.
Present considerations: In March 2023, staff engaged HDR Engineering, Inc. to complete a
citywide risk assessment of the sanitary sewer and water systems. The purpose of the study
was to review the city's water and sanitary sewer pipe networks to assist with decision-making
and identifying additional capital investment.
In March 2024, HDR completed this desktop risk assessment. The evaluation highlighted pipe
segments based on a risk assessment model to support the city's capital improvement planning.
This assessment offered insights into areas of potential risk, which will help the city develop
rehabilitation and replacement plans aimed at reducing the risk of interruption of water
service, consequences of interruption and to manage sanitary system maintenance.
At the meeting, staff will present an outline of the findings of this report, including maps
summarizing the key takeaways regarding risk for both the water and sanitary sewer pipe
networks.
This discussion is not meant to provide the council with final recommendations or overall
funding plans. It is staff's intent to provide the council with an overview of the findings of the
recently completed utility risk assessment.
This water and sewer risk assessment will help inform priorities for future infrastructure
replacement needs.
Background of our system: HDR's approach made use of existing data related to watermain
and sanitary sewer assets to develop risk model s (one specific to the water distribution system
and one specific to the sanitary sewer collection system) that will be used to help prioritize
rehabilitation and replacement projects within each asset type.
The city's service area encompasses nearly 10.8 square miles and consists of approximately 178
miles of water pipe and 144 miles of sanitary sewer pipe.

Title: Utility risk assessment update
Water pipe network: Initial city growth occurred in the 1930s, with a pause during World War
II, followed by substantial growth in the 1950s with installation of primarily metallic cast iron
(CAS) pipe. From 1960 to about 1990, a good majority of pipe installations are of unknown
material. A smaller portion of the system was installed as polyvinyl chloride (PVC) in the 1990s.
Pipe installation from 2014 onward has consisted predominately of ductile iron pipe (DIP).
About 64% of the pipe network was installed in the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s. While actual
lifespan can vary greatly, the average life expectancy of water pipes is 100 years.
Approximately 58% of the system's pipes are made of CAS, while 16% is DIP, and 26% is
remaining as unknown or plastic pipe materials. CAS is an older material that tends to be more
brittle than newer materials, which adds to its susceptibility to breaking. Around 74% of the
total length of the system consists of pipes smaller than 10 inches in diameter. Smaller water
pipes are more prone to breakage than larger ones; at the same time, these repairs are often
more easily completed with minimal interruption for users. Some of the pipes in the city system
are nearing the end of their useful life based on age, material, and diameter.
Sanitary sewer pipe network: The first sanitary sewer pipes in the system were installed in
1941 as primarily vitrified clay pipe (VCP), while newer installations are polyvinyl chloride (PVC)
pipe. About 66% of the pipe network was installed in the 1950s.
Approximately 75% of the system's pipes are made of VCP, while 13% is reinforced concrete
pipe (RCP) pipe, 6% is metallic pipe consisting of steel, ductile iron, cast iron, and galvanized
steel pipe with the remaining as various other materials. VCP is an inert material with a life
expectancy of over 100 years. Around 80% of the total length of the system consists of pipes
smaller than 10 inches in diameter. Some of the pipes in the system are nearing the end of their
useful life based on age, material, and diameter.
Purpose of the study/ methodology: The purpose of the Desktop Risk Assessment is to identify
risk in the system and inform future condition assessment and renewal and replacement
decisions. As the system ages, this assessment will help the city to better understand the
condition of the system and develop a program for assessing the risk to plan for necessary
repair and rehabilitation projects.
An initial step in developing a pipeline assessment program is performing a desktop risk
assessment evaluation and framework. HDR, in collaboration with city staff, developed a risk
framework for various likelihood of failure (LoF) and consequence of failure (CoF) factors for
the system. HDR then reviewed historical records and the city's existing GIS files for input into
the risk model. The risk model assesses areas within the distribution system s for critical, high,
medium, and low-risk pipelines. This desktop risk assessment will assist in developing priorities
for future infrastructure replacement needs.
Managing the risk associated with assets is a core principle of strategic asset management. Risk
is the product of two primary variables: LoF and CoF for an asset. LoF factors indicate the
likelihood that an asset will experience a failure. CoF factors represent the consequence of
failure for that asset. Asset risk is then represented by a risk score.
A higher risk score means that there is increased risk associated with structural failure for a
given asset. Assets with a higher risk score are typically programmed for more frequent
inspections to monitor conditions and to identify the appropriate time for renewal. As
condition assessment information becomes available, the risk score will be revisited and
adjusted based on new information. Risk calculation is different for each type of asset.

Title: Utility risk assessment update
Water pipe network: An asset's risk score is the weighted sum of its LoF and CoF scores. Each of
those scores is determined by several attributes. Below are the attributes considered for the
water pipe network.
Likelihood
+
Consequence
Break History Customer and service impact
Pipe characteristics
Community and environmental impact
Damage resulting from a break/
Difficulty of repair
The Total Risk Score is then calculated as:
Water pipe total risk score = Likelihood x 0.65 + Consequence x 0.35
Sanitary sewer pipe network: An asset's risk score is the weighted sum of its LoF and CoF
scores. Each of those scores is determined by several attributes. Below are the attributes
considered for the sanitary sewer pipe network.
Likelihood
+
Consequence
Pipe and soil characteristics Customer and service impact
Pipe deterioration and condition
Community and environmental impact
Cost and difficulty of repair
The Total Risk Score is then calculated as:
Sanitary sewer pipe total risk score = Likelihood x 0.60 + Consequence x 0.40
High level findings/ conclusions: Risk analysis and management is a dynamic process. The
results of the initial risk assessment provide a current picture of risk across the city's system.
However, this picture is a snapshot in time, and it is important to update the risk model on a
periodic basis as conditions change with the city's available data.
•Water pipe:
o Less than 5% of the water main pipe scored High or Very High risk.
o When the watermain replaced as a part of the city's 2022-2024 CIP
transportation projects is factored into this assessment, the percentage lowered
to 3.1%.
•Sanitary sewer:
o 40.3 % of sanitary sewer scored High or Very High risk. This risk is driven by age
of pipe. We have been using trenchless technology, pipe lining, to extend the life

of sanitary sewer pipe. Using this technology will lower this risk in a relatively
short time.
o The city has implemented HDR operation and maintenance recommendations.
•In 40 years, 70% of the watermain and sanitary sewer will have reached their life
expectancy; the city should work on an overall replacement plan. The replacement plan
will be informed by all of the current data points used by the city, as reviewed in earlier
council meetings this spring, in addition to this risk assessment data.
Financial considerations: The initial estimate for this study was $126,000. The actual cost of
this study is $102,565 and is paid for using water and sanitary sewer funds.
Next steps: Capital planning is a system that relies heavily on identifying all the needs,
prioritizing improvements and making decisions based on infrastructure condition. This ensures
that the city will maximize our investment and make public dollars go further.
The information provided in the study will be used to inform the 10-year CIP starting in the
2026 budget process. Over the coming year, planning level cost information for renewal or
rehabilitation for each asset type will be developed to assist the city with capital improvement
planning.
Incorporating this information into the engineering department CIP will require an extensive
review of available funding, potential needed additional funding, and staff workload to
determine how it can be delivered.

Executive summary
Title: Letter of no-default Beltline Station Development – Ward 1
Recommended action: None at this time. The EDA and city council will be asked to consider a
letter of no-default related to the Beltline Station Development on May 20, 2024.
Policy consideration: Does the EDA wish to approve the letter of no-default related to the
Beltline Station Development relating to the property purchase date and construction
commencement and completion dates for the project?
Summary: In October 2023, the EDA and city approved amendments to the purchase
agreement and contracts related to the Beltline Station Development requiring the developer
to close on its financing and purchase property from the EDA no later than January 31, 2023.
This extension allowed for the redesign and rebidding of the public-private parking ramp
related to the development, since the original parking ramp bid came in several million dollars
over budget.
After a substantial redesign, the parking ramp was rebid. The bid opening occurred on January
23, 2024 and two bids were received. The lowest bid was $20.2 million which was $3.5 million
lower than the September 2024 bid, but it is still several million higher than what the developer
projected in its financial pro-forma for the development.
The bid, combined with high interest rates and increased construction costs, has not allowed
the developer to fully close its financial gap. Sherman Associates has applied for various grants
from Hennepin County and await award decisions which are anticipated in May and early June.
Additionally, in early April, Sherman Associates hired a broker to secure additional equity
partners to help finance the multi-phase development. The broker has indicated that it will
likely need until September 2024 to obtain the equity needed to bring the project to closing.
The developer remains committed to the project, and its private lenders are requesting
additional letters stating the EDA and city will not declare Sherman Associates in default since
the expiration date of the contracts was January 31, 2024. Since all parties continue to work
cooperatively to bring the Beltline Station Development to fruition, EDA legal counsel and staff
recommend approving a resolution stating the EDA and city will not declare a default under the
terms of the contracts. The EDA and council will be asked to consider resolutions approving the
no-default letters at their respective May 20 meetings.
Financial or budget considerations: All legal and financial assistant costs associated with the
preparation of the no-default letter and subsequent amendments will be paid by the developer.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing a broad range of
housing and neighborhood oriented development.
Supporting documents: None.
