PUBLIC HEARING: 12. RECONSIDERATION OF SPECIAL USE PERMIT. SP #94-18, FOR SINCLAIR SERVICE GARAGE, GENERALLY LOCATED AT 6290 HIGHWAY 65 N.E. (TABLED APRIL 10, 2000) (WARD ??): MOTION by Councilmember Bolkcom to remove this item from the table and open the public hearing. Seconded by Councilmember Wolfe. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, MAYOR JORGENSON DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED AND THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS OPENED AT 7:50 P.M. Mr. Hickok, Planning Coordinator, stated that there was discussion of the Sinclair site and concern over the stipulations. Subsequent to that meeting, staff inet with the operator of the site and also with Sinclair corporate representatives. Staff went through each item on the special use permit and discussed the stipulations. There was an agreement about what would happen with each one of these stipulations. The first stipulation was that there would be a fenced screened area behind the building. The screened fence would be eight feet in height and have a board on board design with�an opaque gate according to the approved plan. Used tires, the dumpster, and the waste oil tanks and so forth should be placed within this storage area. The screened storage FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JULY 10, 2000 _ PAGE 8 area is on the west side of the facility. The screened area was built and through miscommunication they built a chain link fence with screening slats. It meets the intent of the ordinance; however, they failed to see the specifics in the wood. Mr. Hickok stated that the second stipulation states that no junk vehicles shall be stored on site. Mr. Preciado, Operator of Sinclair, has agreed to monitor closely and maintain the site so that stipulation is adhered to. The third stipulation is that vehicles leaking fluid shall not be stored outside without a device to prevent fluid from running off the site. Mr. Preciado has agreed to monitor and maintain the compliance of that stipulation. The fourth stipulation states that signage shall comply with Chapter 214 of the City Code. Sinclair's signage does meet that section. The fifth stipulation states that alterations to the site shall comply with the uniform fire and building codes. The property meets those standards. The sixth stipulation states that the petitioner shall provide on site additional landscaping areas by the concrete as indicated on the improvement plan. The landscaped area shall included seed or sod, three ornamental trees and shrub beds with evergreen and deciduous shrubs. Landscape shall be completed on or before December 31, 1998. Sinclair has agreed to have the landscaping done by August 15 of this yeaz to comply. Mr. Hickok stated that the seventh stipulation is that there shall be no vehicle storage outside the screened area except for licensed motor vehicles, which are parked in designated parking stalls provided that they are not parked there for more than 48 continuous hours. Mr. Preciado agreed that he would monitor and maintain consistency with that stipulation. The eighth stipulation was that the drive aisle shall be reduced to 32 feet and shall be completed on or before December 1 of 1998. Their analysis on the tanks revealed that they did not need new tanks and they lost the rest of that stipulation. The code requires a 32 foot drive maximum at the curb. Mr. Haukaas is working with them to have the curb improvements made that will put nice rounded end caps on the landscaped area on the front of the pumps and will provide that standard 32 foot width. They will do that during this year as coordinated with the public works staff and the concrete crew. The cost will be entirely for Sinclair. Stipulation No. 9 states that in the event that this structure is remodeled so the overhead doors are located other than on the east side of the building the special use permit shall be reviewed again. This is not applicable at this time, however they agreed that if that happens certainly they would come back. Mr. Hickok stated that the tenth stipulation states that if additional parking areas are designated above and beyond what is shown on the submitted plan City staff must approve the parking areas. Mr. Preeiado has indicated that he will do that pazking in the very near future. He will ask staff if there is an opportunity to bring in at least two more stalls. Mr. Preciado has indicated that he will not allow people to park outside of the striped azea. The eleventh stipulation states that time improvements to stipulations number six and eight are started, petitioner sha11 submit a performance bond of $5,000 to cover those. That would carry through the year 2001 to make sure the landscape improvements stay vital and plants live and the site looks good. The irrigation to those landscaped areas will happen at a time they refinish their curb and gutter. Mr. Preciado, operator of the Sinclair site, stated that he would like to ask if he could add parking. He would like to angle the north and south parking and run about three more that go � � FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JULY 10. 2000 PAGE 9 east and west and add a handicapped spot right next to the building next to a non-handicapped spot. Mr. Hickok stated that he does not think that should be an issue. As long as the east and west traffic can get in and out the parking should be fine. Mr. Preciado stated that it still provides enough space to circle the structure. Ms. Bolkcom asked Mr. Hickok if he could get back to Mr. Preciado before he actually adds the parking. Mr. Hickok stated that he would. Mayor Jorgenson thanked Mr. Preciado for working with staff. She thought it came out to be a win-win situation. MOTION by Councilmember Wolfe to close the public hearing. Seconded by Councilmember Barnette. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, MAYOR JORGENSON DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY AND THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED AT 8:02 P.M. 13. MOTION TO RECONSIDER SPECIAL USE PERMIT. SP #94-18, FOR SINCLAIR SERVICE GARAGE. GENERALLY LOCATED AT 6290 HIGHWAY 65 N.E. (WARD ??): Mr. Hickok, Planning Coordinator, stated that based on the activity and efforts of Sinclair and its operator, staff recommend that Council allow continuance of the special use permit with the modifications outlined in the previous presentation. Mayor Jorgenson asked if that was with the stipulations placed on it. Mr. Hickok stated that was correct. There were eleven stipulations which responses have been received. Councilmember Bolkcom asked if they are the original stipulations. She asked if staff did not adding or delete any stipulations. Mr. Hickok stated that they were the original stipulations.

VARIANCE REQUEST, VAR #00-10, BY WOODCREST BAPTIST CHURCH, TO INCREASE �HE ALLOWABLE SQUARE FOOTAGE OF AN INSTITUTIONAL SIGN GENERALLY LOCATED AT 6875 UNIVERSITY AVENUE N.E.: Mr. Hickok, Planning Coordinator, stated that Woodcrest Baptist Church was seeking to increase the size of the free-standing institutional sign from 32 square feet to 70 square feet. The church is located at 6875 University Avenue and currently does not utilize a free-standing sign. Chapter 214 of the City Code requires an institutional sign to not exceed 32 square feet in size. The petitioner's statement of hardship is "The sign that is too small to read would create safety problems if people were to slow down to read the sign." Code requirements for sign variance approval has two criteria. The first is that exceptional or extraordinary circumstances applicable to the property or ihe intended use that does not apply generally to other properties in the vicinity or district. The sign code is enforced uniformly across the City, and no churches currently have FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JULY 10, 2000 PAGE 11 institutional signs in excess of 32 square feet. The next criteria states that for the variance it is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of the substantial property rights possessed by other properties in the same vicinity and district, but which is denied the property in question. Larger than code signs are not a right possessed by others in the vicinity. Mr. Hickok stated that the petitioner has additional wall sign opportunities. Any larger than code signs along this stretch of University are for multi-tenant properties with unique hazdships. Texaco/Taco Bell asked for a larger sign and were denied. A multi-tenant building up the road further asked for a larger sign and was denied. Historically, the City has approved variances when a combination of two signs for the price of one such as Bob's Produce or Lyndale Garden Center and chose to combine the signs and have one sign in an optimum location. They combined their signs and reduced their overall square foot dimension they could have from 160 to 120 square feet. Mr. Hickok stated that there is no real hardship here. There are no topographic constraints that would produce a statutory hardship. The granting of the variance would not be materially detrimental to the public health, safety, or general welfare or detrimental to the property vicinity. A sign would give this church a commercial look in a residential district. Granting would set a precedent for increasing the sign size for all places of worship in residential areas. The Appeals Commission reviewed this and determined that Woodcrest Baptist Church was originally seeking to increase the size of the free-standing sign from 32 square feet to 70 square feet but then revised their request to 48 square feet. The Appeals Commission indicated that there is a lack of hardship and a sign this size would be inconsistent in a residential district. The neighbor's objections and precedence that would be set, the Appeals Commission voted to recommend denial of any variance request that would exceed 32 square feet m�imum size. Staff recommended denial due to no statutory defined hardship, and no comparable variances have been granted. The property is zoned residential and this would set a precedence for increasing sign size for all places of worship in residentially zoned districts. The property has good visibility from University Avenue, and the Appeals Commission found no hardship. (incomplete sentence?) Councilmember Billings stated that when staff makes recommendations for approval or stipulations to include the language of the sign code so variances do not last in perpetuity but meet the requirements of the sign code for changes. This was discussed extensively at the Appeals Commission. MOTION by Councilmember Billings to deny variance #00-10. Seconded by Councilmember Bolkcom. Mayor Jorgenson asked if there was a petition from the neighbors regarding this sign. Mr. Hickok stated that it was only verbal commentary indicating folks were not impressed with having a sign that size in a residential district. There was teleophone commentary regarding the opposition to this request. Mayor Jorgenson asked if this is based on hearsay basically. FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JULY 10, 2000 PAGE 12 Mr. Hickok stated that folks sometimes would rather call staff to voice their opinions rather than attend an Appeals meeting. Staff felt that it was important for residents to voice their opinion during the meetings. Mr. Hickok believed there were two telephone comments. Mayor Jorgenson asked for a vote on the motion. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, MAYOR JORGENSON DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 14B. APPROVE CONTRACT BETWEEN THE CITY OF FRIDLEY AND HOISINGTON KOEGLER GROUP, INC, FOR PLANNING SERVICES PERTAINING TO THE PROPOSED NORTHSTAR COMMUTER RAIL SITE IN FRIDLEY: Councilmember Wolfe asked that if the Metropolitan Council and the Northstar Corridor the commuter rail is such a good idea, why would the City spend $6,000 rather than those two organizations. Mr. Burns stated that he thought the organizations needed a few more steps in the process. This question will be discussed in the public meeting. Councilmember Wolfe stated that Metropolitan Council and the Northstar Corridor are the ones who think this is the best idea and are all for it. Mr. Burns stated that they are the ones that did the planning study and the project to raise money frorn federal, state, and other sources. Councilmember Billings stated that he does not think it would be totally inappropriate for the City Council to indicate to the Northstar Corridor Development Authority that there are certain processes and procedures in terms of communications with the citizens. The City requires almost all applicants for rezoning and whatnot to go through and encourage all developers to have public meetings. It would be appropriate to send a letter requesting reimbursement from the Northstar Corridor Development Authority for the cost of this contract. He would be in support of tabling this if the time constraints were not so critical. MOTION by Councilmember Barnette to approve the contract between the City of Fridley and Hoisington Koegler Group, Inc., for planning services pertaining to the proposed Northstar Commuter Rail site in Fridley for the amount of $6,000. Seconded by Councilmember Bolkcom. Councilmember Bolkcom stated that she wants to make sure that people realize this is not a done deal. She said Council wants to know what residents concerns. That is why neighborhood meetings are held. All residents are invited to attend whether or not they receive notices. These meetings are to give information about the traffic issues, what it would look like, and what other communities that have commuter rail look like. There are a lot of unknowns, but Council would like to start informing residents and the business community. This is a consultant that has � FRIDLE_Y CITY COITNCIL MEETING OF JULY 10, 2000 PAGE 13 worked on the vision teams and comprehensive plan. Council is familiar with how he conducts meeting. The company also has a good understanding of the comprehensive plan. Councilmember Billings stated that Council is asking the Northstar Corridor Development Authority to do more than make presentations. Council is asking them to have the public meeting ahead of time and to make their presentation to the Planning Commission, then make the presentation to the City Council. There are a lot more issues for Fridley than there are in Big Lake or some of the cities along the route where the stations are going to an undeveloped neighborhood. There are other issues that need to be brought out. Councilmember Bolkcom took the lead on requesting them to make multiple presentations to Fridley. This is fair to ask those organizations to pay the cost of the meetings even though we are asking them to hold the meetings. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, MAYOR JORGENSON DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. MOTION by Councilmember Wolfe to approve the resolution that City of Fridley request funding from the Northstar Corridor Development Authority and the Metropolitan Council to conduct all the necessary public hearings. Seconded by Councilmember Barnette. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, MAYOR JORGENSON DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 14. INFORMAL STATUS REPORTS: Mayor Jorgenson stated that she attended a retirement luncheon for Dick Larson. He served on the Fire Department for over thirty years, was responsible for the hazardous rnaterial program, and provided numerous hours of training for fire safety. She said he will be missed. Mr. Burns stated that a meeting is scheduled for Tuesday afternoon, July 11 for the public regarding Northern States Power clearcutting the trees around the Starlite Boulevard neighborhood. Councilmember Bolkcom stated that she and Councilmember Billings talked with an NSP representative in St. Cloud about the issues with the trees which is how the idea for this meeting got started. Councilmember Billings stated that he has had conversations previously with the office of the President of NSP. This meeting intends to explore possible options and if a remedy exists. Mayor Jorgenson commended Councilmember Billings for contacting NSP. Councilmember Bolkcom asked if Council could see an example of the new Medtronic sign possibly at the next meeting. Mr. Hickok stated that the sign is a very elegant sign. One sign is on the building face closest to I-694 and almost looks like a signature on the building as opposed to a big monstrous sign. FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF NLY 10, 2000 PAGE 14 Along the drive coming into the development that divides the two wetland areas, there is a retaining wall on the backside of the wet azeas that has the Medtronic sign. It is high enough that it will not be affected by the pond elevations and low enough to reflect the word Medtronic off the pond as you are driving into it. Mr. Burns stated that they could have the signs shown at the next meeting. Mr. Hickok sta.ted that he could do that. ADJOURN: MOTION by Councilmember Barnette to adjourn the meeting. Seconded by Councilmember Bolkcom. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, MAYOR JORGENSON DECLARED THE JULY 10, 2000, CITY COUNCIL MEETING ADJOURNED AT 8:30 P.M. Respectfully submitted, Signe L.

Burns, City Manager Barbara Dacy, Community Development Director Scott J. Hickok, Planning Coordinator SUBJECT: Geis Final Plat - PS #99-04 — 520 Dover Street On September 15, 1999 the Planning Commission held a public hearing to consider preliminary plat PS, #99-04. The Commission recommended approval of the plat request with 8 stipulations. The City Council approved preliminary plat, PS, #99-04 as recommended by the Commission on October 11, 1999. Though generally in concurrence with the plat, Anoka County Torrens Department would not accept the Geis plat without creating Lot 1A. The purpose of creating this lot is to separate the Torrens from the Abstract parcels and thereby allow the plat to be recorded. Since the parcel is too small to be a free-standing residential parcel and its sole purpose is to provide access to the existing home (at Anoka County's insistence), staff is comfortable with the record showing Lot 1A as a separate parcel, for purposes of recording. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the attached resolution with 8 stipulations. M-00-128 1 RESOLUTION NO.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of Fridley directs the petitioner to record this plat at Anoka County within six (6) months or said approval shall become null and void. PASSED AND ADOPTED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FRIDLEY THIS 24th DAY OF JULY, 2000. ' ATTEST: DEBRA A. SKOGEN - CITY CLERK I' NANCY J. JORGENSON - MAYOR Resolution No. � - Page 2 Exhibit A 1.

Burns, City Manager Barbara Dacy, Community Development Director Scott J. Hickok, Planning Coordinator SUBJECT: Lombardi Brothers Meats Temporary Trailer License �1i��3•II�I�IL�I.] Michael Gau, General Manager, Lombardi Brothers Meats, 7501 Commerce Lane, has requested approval of a temporary trailer license to allow an office trailer on their site at 7501 Commerce Lane. The City has a license procedure for this type of trailer application. Staff recommends approval with 4 stipulations. ISSUES Mr. Gau has indicated that their company is in the process of planning and designing a permanent addition, but their current space combined with the growth of their sales staff is making a temporary office space solution necessary. Staff has reviewed the site and has determined that the proposed location is best suited for the 658 s.f. (11'-9" x 56'-0") trailer. Lombardi's trailer office lease is for a one-year term and they do not anticipate needing a future license renewal request. This request is different than the recent Islamic Center request in that the Industrial district provides a temporary trailer license opportunity. To have a classroom expansion at a school, on the other hand, requires modification of the school's special use permit due to potential impacts of a private school expansion in a residential district. Parking stalls must be striped on this site to assure that the parking area for employee vehicles is clearly defined. Staff recommends a maximum 1-year term for this temporary office trailer. �� Lombardi Brothers Meats July 20, 2000 PAGE 2 RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the attached license with 4 stipulations. 1. Trailer license is for a maximum term of 1-year at which time the trailer is to be removed from the site. 2. All parking shall be on-site on asphalt parking areas only. 3. All stalls shall be striped in accordance with the City's 9' x 20' industrial parking requirements. a. Any necessary building permits shall be acquired prior to commencement of the work on this project.

Flora, Public Works Director July 19, 2000 SUBJECT: University Ave Backlit Street Signs PW00-091 The City of Columbia Heights has initiated a program for installing internally illuminated street name signs on the highway intersections within the City of Columbia Heights. They are currently installing signs on University Avenue. The 49`� Avenue crossing on University Avenue is within the City boundaries. Accordingly, they are requesting that the City participate in their project by installing an internally illuminated street name sign at that crossing. The City of Fridley has installed internally illuminated street name signs from 53� Avenue north. Installing an internally illuminated street name sign at 49`� would be consistent and would complete the Universiry Avenue corridor in Columbia Heights and Fridley. Recommend the City Council join with Columbia Heights and install an internally illuminated street name sign at 49`� Avenue and request State Aid funds for this improvement.

At 49`� Avenue, the Right-of-Way is entirely within the City of Fridley, and not eligible for State Aid funding by Columbia Heights. Therefore, I am asking if City of Fridley would be interested in participating in this type of improvement, creating a consistent theme on University Avenue from 37`� Avenue to those previously placed in Fridley, north of 53"� Avenue. The signs aze state-aid N ligible for funding. This would also require the City of Fridley paying the energy cosis for the 49 Avenue installation. If the City of Fridley is interested in the insta�lation of backlit street signs at 49`� Avenue, please contact me at 76�/706-3705, so we may discuss the next steps. ) KH:jb � � Works Director/City Engineer THE CITY OF COLUMBIA HEICHTS DOES NOT DISCRlMINATE ON THE � 'SERVICF IS O�JR 8US�1��SS" �-7?F DISABILiTy IN EMPLOYMENTOR THE PROVISIOM OF SERVICES � f�<:=�A�.
