ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED:

Motion to Accept Letter of Resignation from Police Officer Joseph “JC” Stratton.

OVERVIEW:

Attached you will find a letter from Police Officer JC Stratton giving notice of his intent to resign his position with the South St. Paul Police Department effective May 18, 2021. Officer Stratton was hired as a Police Officer with the South St. Paul Police Department on March 5, 2018 after spending the previous five years working as a Deputy Sheriff with Mesa County Sheriff’s Office (Colorado).

During his three years of employment with the Police Department, JC has shown himself to be an outstanding employee. JC has been an integral part of our Department and he will be sorely missed by all of us not only on a professional level, but also on a personal basis.

Members of the Department wish JC the best as he moves into the next chapter of his life. We thank him for his service to our Department for the last three years. A copy of his letter of resignation is attached.

A CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT Date: May 17, 2021 8-D Department: Community Development-Planning Prepared by: Michael Healy, City Planner/Zoning Administrator Administrator: JRH

AGENDA ITEM: Waive Filing Deadline for Final Plat of “The Yards” Addition

ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED:

A motion:

1. Approving Resolution #2021- 77 waiving the filing deadline to record the final plat of “The Yards Addition.”

OVERVIEW:

Background

The Beard Group has partnered with the City’s EDA and is redeveloping the northwest corner of the intersection of Concord Exchange and Grand Avenue with two (2) market rate apartment buildings which are being built in two phases. This is land that had previously been owned by the EDA. The Applicant obtained a Preliminary Plat approval and a Conditional Use Permit for a Planned Unit Development (CUP/PUD) approval on December 21, 2020. The City Council approved the final plat for “The Yards Addition” on February 16, 2021. The final plat reconfigures the piece of land into two buildable lots, one for each of the proposed apartment buildings.

The EDA’s initial plan was to record the plat of “The Yards Addition” as part of the closing when they transferred ownership of the subject property to the Beard Group. Unfortunately, the property has title issues that intertwined HUD related encumbrances on the John Carroll property with the development property that are preventing the final plat from being recorded. The City Attorney is working diligently to resolve the title issues, but due to the complexities of HUD’s process, the timeline for resolution is unclear. The plat cannot be recorded until the title issues are resolved.

Waiver of Filing Deadline

Per City Ordinance, final plats must be recorded within 90 days of approval unless the City Council approves an extension:

Sec. 114-33. - Same—Final plat. (d) Filing by subdivider. (1) The subdivider, upon approval and signing of the final plat by the city, shall file the final plat with the county and submit proof of said filing to the city. Failure by the subdivider to file the final plat within 90 days shall render city approvals null and void unless an extension is granted by the city council.

Because the final plat was approved on February 16, 2021, it must be recorded by May 17, 2021 unless the City Council grants an extension. The City Attorney will not be able to resolve the remaining title issues prior to May 17th and an extension is needed. Because the City has taken full responsibility for completing the plat recording, the City Attorney is advising that the City Council waive the recording deadline entirely, giving the City Attorney’s office sufficient time to resolve the title issues.

STAFF AND CITY ATTORNEY RECOMMENDATION

Staff and the City Attorney recommend approval of Resolution #2021-77 waiving the filing deadline for the final plat of “The Yards Addition.”

60-DAY REVIEW DEADLINE: NA City of South St. Paul Dakota County, Minnesota

RESOLUTION NO. 2021-77

A RESOLUTION WAIVING THE FILING DEADLINE FOR THE FINAL PLAT OF THE YARDS ADDITION

WHEREAS, the City Council approved the final plat of The Yards Addition on February 16, 2021 (Resolution #2021-30), legally described as:

Lots 1 and 2, Block 1 and Outlot A The Yards Addition

WHEREAS, City Code Section 114-33 (d) states that failure by the subdivider to file the final plat within 90 days shall render city approvals null and void unless an extension is granted by the City Council; and

WHEREAS, the City and the EDA have assumed responsibility for resolving outstanding title issues and recording the final plat. The City Attorney has stated that additional time is needed to record the final plat and has advised the City Council to waive the filing deadline for “The Yards Addition.”

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of South St. Paul, Minnesota as follows:

A. The City Council hereby waives the 90-day filing deadline for the final plat of “The Yards Addition.”

Adopted this 17th day of May, 2021.

Agenda Item: Approval to Retain Bjorklund Compensation Consulting for Total Classification and Compensation Study

Action to be considered: Motion to approve the hire of Bjorklund Compensation Consulting for Total Classification and Compensation Study.

Overview: The City of South St. Paul has not had a comprehensive classification and compensation review in over 20 years. Currently, the City reviews positions and salary ranges with surrounding Dakota County cities and cities in the metro area that are similar in size and structure to South St. Paul. The City also utilizes the DCA, Inc. Position Evaluation System created by the Stanton Group. The plan meets the requirements of MN Statutes 471.991-471.995 which were created to prohibit discrimination in pay based on gender. These laws require local government employers to utilize an approved system to determine the comparable worth and corresponding pay of positions. To be compliant, the employer’s job classifications and pay structures must meet the criteria laid forth in the law, and the employer must register their system and submit periodic reports as required by the State to show continued compliance. The current reporting cycle is every 3 years, and the City last submitted a report and received a compliance notification form the State in 2019.

Over the past five years or so, the City has realigned and/or created several new positions, resulting in the reorganization of departments; and, due to the uniqueness of some of the positions within the city it is becoming more difficult to match them with comparable jobs in the market. It is common practice for agencies to conduct full classification studies about every 10 years and since the City of South St. Paul has not conducted a study in over 20 years, staff feels a city-wide study is in order.

An RFP was issued to several consultants with expertise in public sector classification and compensation studies and five proposals were received. City Administrator Joel Hanson and Asst. City Administrator/HR Director Shelly Anderson met with representatives from two firms in the metro area that specialize in public sector compensation studies and pay equity and classification systems. Both firms were impressive, but staff feels Bjorklund Compensation Consulting will offer the most comprehensive study at the best value.

Robert Bjorklund, of Bjorklund Compensation Consultants has been in the business for over 30 years and is an expert in Pay Equity, comparable worth, and classification/compensation plans. The estimated timeline for completion is approximately five months, with total costs estimates of $20,000-$25,000 dependent upon selection of certain services. They will also add the South Metro Fire Department into the study for an additional $2,330. The proposed work scope is attached to this memo. Staff recommends retaining the services of Bjorklund Compensation Consulting to complete a total classification and compensation study for the City of South St. Paul.

II. BCC’s WORK PLAN

In this section, we summarize the services and project steps that BCC will perform during the study. Given the constraints of COVID, BCC assumes that meetings and interviews will be conducted via video conference whenever possible. Furthermore, the same steps of the study will apply to South Metro Fire Department’s seven positions should they wish to be included in the study. The work plan is presented in seven major phases as follows and outlined below in diagram form:

Phase I: Understanding Your Current Needs & Pay Philosophy Phase II: Conduct Position Analysis Phase III: Conduct Job Evaluation Phase IV: Conduct a Salary Survey and Develop Pay Plan(s) Phase V: Prepare Classification and Compensation Handbook and Conduct Training Phase VI: Develop & Conduct Appeals Process (Optional) Phase VII: Prepare and Present Final Report

AGENDA ITEM: Approve Bid from HDR, Inc for the Independent Fee Estimate for Construction Administration and Related Services for the Runway Rehabilitation Project

ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED:

Approve Bid from HDR, Inc for the Independent Fee Estimate for Construction Administration and Related Services for the Runway Rehabilitation Project

Overview:

On May 10, 2021, Airport staff reached out to three engineering firms to request a bid for an Independent Fee Estimate for the 2021 Runway Reconstruction Project.

FAA AC 150-5100-14E states that a Sponsor (City of South St. Paul) must perform a cost price analysis for every A/E contract. To properly evaluate the cost of professional services an independent fee estimate (IFE) is required, prior to receiving the consultant’s proposal, as part of the cost analysis for all A/E contracts and contract modifications. The IFE is intended to be used as a negotiation tool by the Sponsor. The word “independent” does not imply that the IFE has to be performed by someone other than the Sponsor.

Preparation of an IFE can be completed in a number of ways, such as the following, or as approved by your local ADO: 1. A Sponsor having a staff with experience in estimating the professional services and negotiating contracts for these services can develop its own IFE for the services, based on the scope of services agreed upon in paragraph 2.12. 2. Sponsors having no staff with this expertise or having minimal or no previous experience may engage the services of a consultant on retainer for preparation of the IFE provided the consultant has experience with the services involved and who is not being considered for the project. 3. Alternatively, an independent engineering, architecture, or planning consultant may be retained to prepare an IFE provided this consultant was not on the pre-selection short-list. The consultant must have recent experience in airport work similar to that proposed and be familiar with FAA requirements and procedures. The Sponsor should request evidence that the consultant meets the above requirements. Because the total cost of the construction project is estimated to be more than $100,000.00, a detailed fee/cost analysis is required.

Because this project is part of the 2021 FAA Grant for the Runway Reconstruction, this design agreement will be fully funded by the FAA. The most recent stimulus legislation included 100% funding for FAA AIP Projects in 2021.

Two bids were received with the bid results as follows:

BIDDERS TOTAL BID Becher-Hoppe, Inc $3,500.00 HDR Inc. $3,000.00

Airport Staff recommends the low bidder, HDR Inc. for the project.

This project will be included in our 2021 Grant Request with the FAA and will be 100% funded by the FAA.

AGENDA ITEM: Approve Bid from Becher-Hoppe, Inc for the Independent Fee Estimate for Professional Consultant Services

ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED:

Approve Bid from Becher-Hoppe, Inc. for the Independent Fee Estimate for Professional Consultant Services to Update the Existing Exhibit A – Airport Property Map

Overview:

On May 10, 2021, Airport staff reached out to three engineering firms to request a bid for an Independent Fee Estimate for the 2021 Update to the Existing Exhibit A – Airport Property Map.

FAA AC 150-5100-14E states that a Sponsor (City of South St. Paul) must perform a cost price analysis for every A/E contract. To properly evaluate the cost of professional services an independent fee estimate (IFE) is required, prior to receiving the consultant’s proposal, as part of the cost analysis for all A/E contracts and contract modifications. The IFE is intended to be used as a negotiation tool by the Sponsor. The word “independent” does not imply that the IFE has to be performed by someone other than the Sponsor.

Preparation of an IFE can be completed in a number of ways, such as the following, or as approved by your local ADO: 1. A Sponsor having a staff with experience in estimating the professional services and negotiating contracts for these services can develop its own IFE for the services, based on the scope of services agreed upon in paragraph 2.12. 2. Sponsors having no staff with this expertise or having minimal or no previous experience may engage the services of a consultant on retainer for preparation of the IFE provided the consultant has experience with the services involved and who is not being considered for the project. 3. Alternatively, an independent engineering, architecture, or planning consultant may be retained to prepare an IFE provided this consultant was not on the pre-selection short-list. The consultant must have recent experience in airport work similar to that proposed and be familiar with FAA requirements and procedures. The Sponsor should request evidence that the consultant meets the above requirements. Because the total cost of the project is estimated to be more than $100,000.00, a detailed fee/cost analysis is required.

Because this project is part of the 2021 FAA Grant for the Runway Reconstruction, this Property Map Update will be fully funded by the FAA. The most recent stimulus legislation included 100% funding for FAA AIP Projects in 2021.

One bid was received with the bid results as follows:

BIDDERS TOTAL BID Becher-Hoppe, Inc $3,500.00

3. Dispute Resolution Client and Consultant agree that they shall first submit any and all unsettled claims, counterclaims, disputes, and other matters in question between them arising out of or relating to this Agreement to mediation in accordance with the Construction Industry Mediation Rules of the American Arbitration Association in effect at the date of this agreement.

However, since Consultant has no control over the cost of labor, materials, equipment or services furnished by others, over contractor’s methods of determining prices, or over competitive bidding or market conditions, Consultant cannot and does not guarantee that proposals, bids, or actual construction cost will not vary from Consultant’s opinions or estimates of probable construction cost.

AGENDA ITEM: Dakota County All-Hazard Mitigation Planning Process

ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED:

Adopt Resolution 2021 – 078 to Participate in the All-Hazard Mitigation Planning Process.

OVERVIEW:

Keeping residents safe when disaster strikes is important to Dakota County and South St. Paul. In 2005, 2010 and 2016, the County partnered with cities in the County to prepare a plan to reduce damages related to disaster events and ensure communities remain eligible for FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) funds to mitigate and recover from a disaster. This multi-jurisdictional plan is the Dakota County All-Hazard Mitigation Plan, approved in 2006, 2011 and 2016. FEMA requires the plan be updated every five years and an updated plan is due in 2021.

The County and incorporated cities are required to have a plan, and City staff believes it is beneficial to partner on a multi-jurisdictional plan. To be included in the Dakota County plan, FEMA requires the city to have a formal resolution adopted by the City Council stating the City of South St. Paul will be part of this multi-jurisdictional plan.

South St. Paul staff will be involved in the update process with Dakota County. We will be providing information specific to South St. Paul and will have an opportunity to review and approve the updated plan before it is submitted to FEMA.

AGENDA ITEM: Approve Hire of Community Service Officer

ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED:

Motion to make a conditional job offer to Ryan Pavlak for a part time Community Service Officer position, effective on or after June 14th, 2021, at the starting salary as outlined in the current AFSCME contract, contingent on the successful completion of a background investigation.

OVERVIEW: The Community Service Officer (CSO) position is a uniformed, non-sworn position in the Police Department. Primary CSO responsibilities include park patrol, animal control, and support services for the Police Department. In addition to these primary responsibilities, the CSO position is assigned with resolving code enforcement violations tasked to the police department.

As of May 2021, three of the four Community Service Officers within the Police Department are attending their Law Enforcement Skills training, which is the final component required prior to obtaining eligibility for licensure as a police officer. A statewide shortage of quality applicants, combined with the individual skill sets of our Community Service Officers leads us to believe that they will begin to obtain licensed police officer positions later this year, leaving a significant void in our authorized staffing, and directly impact our ability to meet our code enforcement and animal control obligations. By hiring now, we will be able accomplish the training prior to the departure of our current staff members.

The CSO position is a AFSCME Union position requiring an internal job posting. No internal candidates were identified; therefore, the position was posted publicly in late January of 2021. Interviews were conducted with all eligible applicants and a candidate has been identified.

Ryan Pavlak is a graduate of Mahtomedi High School, is currently attending the University of MN pursuing a degree in Sociology of Law, Criminology and Deviance, is active in outdoor recreational activities and is the great grandson of Officer Leo Pavlak, who lost his life in the line of duty in 1933 serving the City of South St. Paul.

Police Department staff feel that Ryan Pavlak will be an excellent addition to the Police Department and recommends his appointment to the position of part time Community Service Officer. A redacted copy of his application is attached.

AGENDA ITEM: Approve Plans & Specifications and Call for Bids for AIR-12-112 2021 Runway 16/34 Reconstruction at the South St. Paul Airport

ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED:

A motion to adopt RESOLUTION 2021-82 APPROVING THE PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS FOR AIR-12-112 2021 RUNWAY 16/34 RECONSTRUCTION AT THE SOUTH ST. PAUL AIRPORT AND ORDERING ADVERTISEMENT FOR BIDS.

OVERVIEW:

Runway 16/34 is the sole runway at South St. Paul Municipal Airport – Fleming Field. The runway is approximately 4,000 feet in length and 100 feet wide. The existing bituminous pavement has been in place since the 1990s and studies have indicated that it is reaching the end of its useful life. SEH has finalized the design of the runway reconstruction and is ready to advertise for bids so that we can continue the grant application process with the FAA.

This project will consist of full depth reclamation of the existing runway and some of the taxiway connectors. It will also include new airfield lighting and signs as well as the replacement of the existing culverts and grading to improve drainage.

SEH has prepared the final design plans. Review of the final plans has been done by Airport Staff. The City of South St. Paul will provide bidding services and SEH will assist with grant administration.

RECOMMENDATIONS:

Staff recommends adopting a resolution to approve the plans and specifications for the project and authorize advertisement for bids.

SOURCE OF FUNDS:

The engineers estimate for this project is $4.1 million dollars but because this project is part of the 2021 FAA Grant for the Runway Reconstruction, it will be fully funded by the FAA. The most recent stimulus legislation included 100% funding for FAA AIP Projects in 2021. With 100% funding, the City of South St. Paul is saving an estimated $205,000 (5%) from a more normal funding arrangement!

Fund Use Prohibited. The Local Government will not utilize any funds received pursuant to this Agreement to compensate, either directly or indirectly, any contractor, corporation, partnership, or business, however organized, which is disqualified or debarred from entering into or receiving a federal or state contract. This restriction applies regardless of whether the disqualified or debarred party acts in the capacity of a general contractor, a subcontractor, or as an equipment or material supplier.

Review Times Application Submittal: April 1, 2021 Planning Commission: May 5, 2021 Tentative City Council Meeting: May 17, 2021 60-Day Review Deadline: May 31st, 2021

Background

Staff received an application from Rachell Gerten to run a small, in-home salon at her place of residence. Her property is located at 319 11th Avenue South. The property is zoned R-2- Single-and-Two-Family Residential. Home occupations are allowed by Conditional Use Permit in the R-2 District.

The applicant is the owner of the home and the proposed salon would remain accessory to the primary use as a single-family home. The proposed hair salon studio would utilize one room on the first floor of the home. The salon studio would offer coloring, cutting, perming, and waxing services. The applicant would be the sole employee at the studio. The salon would be limited to one client at a time, as is required by state guidelines. Customer parking would take place out front of the home. The owner has not requested any signage for the businesses. The proposed hours of operation are as follows:

• Monday: Closed • Tuesday: 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM • Wednesday: 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM • Thursday: 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM. • Friday: 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM. • Saturday/Sunday: Closed

Relevant Code

The City Code currently requires a conditional use permit for any type of home occupation. A home occupation is defined as:

Home occupation means any occupation or profession engaged in by the occupant of a dwelling when carried on within a dwelling unit. Such uses may include professional office uses which require or include customers coming to the residence to obtain a business service or product, or teaching, and similar uses; however, a home occupation shall not be interpreted to include beauty salons or barbershops with two or more salon chairs, tourist homes, restaurants, or similar uses. The term also includes the performance of massage services pursuant to a personal service license issued under article XIII of chapter 18 of this Code.

Performance standards for home occupations are found in Section 118-121, Single-family residential district. These standards are as follows:

Sec. 118-121. - R-1, single-family district. f. Home occupations, as defined in section 118-8, provided that: 1. Entrance to the home occupation is gained from within the structure; 2. The occupation shall be conducted entirely within the principal structure; 3. No accessory building or attached garage shall be used for the home occupation; 4. Evidence of the occupation shall not be visible from the street; 5. No stock or warehousing for the occupation shall be stored on the premises; 6. No more than three parking spaces are needed at any given time in addition to the parking spaces required by the resident occupants; 7. Home occupations such as massage are limited to no more than one client waiting for services and no more than one client receiving services at any given time; and 8. Home occupations such as teaching are limited to three students at any given time.

Conditional Use Permit Analysis

The Applicant needs a conditional use permit in order to have a home occupation. The Code states that a Conditional Use Permit should only be recommended for approval if the Planning Commission has made the following determination:

(1) That the conditional use, with such conditions as the commission shall determine and attach, conforms to the general purpose and intent of this chapter. (2) If the application is based on the conditional use provision in this chapter that the issuance conforms to the general characteristics of the district of which it will become a part. (3) That the conditional use will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of property in the neighborhood for uses permitted in the district or districts affected. (4) That adequate utilities, access roads, streets, drainage, and other necessary facilities have been or will be provided. (5) That adequate measures have been or will be taken to provide ingress and egress in such a manner as to minimize traffic congestion and hazards in the public streets. (6) In residential districts, certain uses may not be considered appropriate within the interior of residential neighborhoods because of noise, traffic, or other conditions that would tend to adversely affect the residential character of the neighborhood and possibly reduce property values. These may be considered appropriate only on the periphery of residential neighborhoods or under such conditions as the city council may deem proper. The uses may represent "buffer" uses for those areas lying between residential dwellings and nonresidential uses. Discussion

The applicant has proposed a home occupation use that meets the City’s regulations for a home occupation. In-home salons are one of the most common home occupations. Staff would note that while the current home occupation ordinance requires a Conditional Use Permit for this use, this part of the City Code will soon be updated. Under the proposed new rules, minor in-home occupations will no longer need a conditional use permit so long as they fully comply with a set of performance standards. The proposed in- home salon would be considered “permitted” and would not need a conditional use permit under the proposed new standards. The Applicant was informed of the upcoming changes to the Code and has indicated that she wants to start her new in-home business immediately and is not able to wait for the new standards to be adopted.

Staff Recommendation

Staff recommends approval of the proposed Conditional Use Permit, subject to the following conditions:

1. Scope of Business. The applicant is required to abide by the scope of business operation as detailed in the applicant’s narrative, including: a) The home occupation hours of operation shall be consistent with what is stated in the narrative unless changes to the City Code increase flexibility and grant all home occupations the ability to operate during set hours. If the Code is updated, the Applicant’s business shall be permitted to operate during the expanded set of hours established by the updated Code. b) No more than one (1) client may be waiting for service and no more than one (1) client may be receiving service at any time.

2. No Home Occupation Exterior Signage Without Additional Approvals. This conditional use permit does not include approval for the installation of any exterior signage for the home occupation.

3. No Employees who Do Not Reside in Dwelling Unit. The home occupation must be operated by the occupant of the dwelling unit and may not have any on-site employees who do not reside in the dwelling unit.

4. Building Code/Fire Code Compliance. The operation must comply with the Building Code and Fire Code and the Applicant must obtain any required permits. A fire extinguisher must be mounted in the room where the salon is located.

5. Other Permits and Licensing. The applicant is responsible for obtaining all permits and approvals from other government agencies and for securing the appropriate business license from the City Clerk. The business license must be kept in good standing. 6. Conditional Use Permit Termination. Per City Code, the Conditional Use Permits will terminate if the improvement has not been substantially begun within one (1) year from the date of approval. Per City Code, the City Council may revoke the Conditional Use Permit, following a public hearing, if any of the above conditions have been violated.

Required Action

The Planning Commission has the following actions available on the proposed application:

A. Approval. If the Planning Commission wishes to recommend approval of the Conditional Use Permit the following action should be taken:

• Motion to recommend approval of a home occupation CUP at 319 11th Avenue South, subject to the conditions laid out in the Staff report.

B. Denial. If the Planning Commission wishes to recommend denial of the proposed Conditional Use Permit, the following:

• Motion to recommend denial of the Conditional Use Permit for a home occupation at 319 11th Avenue South.

If the recommendation is for denial, the Planning Commission should adopt a finding that the proposed use fails to meet the Code’s requirements for Conditional Use Permits.

Agenda Item: Variance for an Additional Accessory Structure at 600 Gun Club Road

Action to be considered: A motion to approve Resolution 2021-71 approving a variance to allow an additional accessory structure at 600 Gun Club Road.

Overview:

Application

The applicant, George Derks on behalf of the South St. Paul Rod and Gun Club, is requesting a variance to allow an additional accessory structure at 600 Gun Club Road. The applicant has proposed to place an 8’ X 10’ resin shed on the property. The shed would be used to store firearm safety equipment and classroom training aids. No guns or live ammunition would be stored in the shed.

Site Information

The South St. Paul Rod and Gun Club has been in South St. Paul since 1935. The property is zoned “I, Industrial” and is considered legal non-conforming as gun ranges are not an allowed use in the Industrial District. The property has special rights under the Minnesota Shooting Range Protection Act or Minnesota Statutes Chapter 87A. This statute allows legal non-conforming shooting ranges to “conduct additional shooting activities within the range's lawful property boundaries as of the date the range became a nonconforming use, provided the shooting range remains in compliance with noise and shooting range performance standards...” This means that the Gun Club can add additional shooting activities even though the property’s use is legal non-conforming.

Most properties function with one principal structure and one accessory structure that serves that principal structure/use. The South St. Paul Rod and Gun Club’s use is unique in that there is one principal structure and multiple accessory structures that work together to create an experience for the site users. The site’s use is most similar to a ‘private recreational day camp’ use. Properties that involve a large number of building are supposed to be processed as a Planned Unit Development, but this is not an option for the Gun Club due to the complicated status as a lawful nonconforming use with limited expansion rights guaranteed by State Statute.

Request

The proposed shed is less than 200 square feet, so only a zoning permit is required for the structure. The shed would not be visible from the road and meets all the setback requirements for an accessory structure. The shed would complement the exterior materials of the Gun Club’s main building. The shed is not located in the Floodplain or Flood Fringe districts, so no additional permitting or zoning approval are required. A variance is necessary for the proposed accessory structure because only one accessory structure is allowed for each principal building on any non-residential site. The site is grandfathered to have one principal structure and multiple accessory structure. Any additional accessory structures require a variance from the City Council. Planning Commission Public Hearing and Recommendation:

The Planning Commission reviewed the application at their meeting on May 5th, 2021. No members of the public were present to comment, and no written comments had been received on the item. The Planning Commission voted to recommend approval of the Variance with a 5-0 vote.

Staff Recommendation

Staff recommends that the City Council approve Resolution 2021-71 approving a variance for an additional accessory structure at 600 Gun Club Road.

RESOLUTION NO. 2021-71

RESOLUTION APPROVING A VARIANCE FOR AN ADDITIONAL ACCESSORY STRUCTURE AT 600 GUN CLUB ROAD

WHEREAS, the City received an application from George Derks on behalf of the South St. Paul Rod and Gun Club for a variance to allow an additional accessory at the site; and

WHEREAS, the subject property is located as at 600 Gun Club Road and is legally described as follows: (See Exhibit A)

WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a public hearing on the application at their May 5, 2021 meeting, proceeded by notice as required by law; and

WHEREAS, the Planning Commission took action to recommend approval of the variance (5-0) at their May 5, 2021 meeting; and

WHEREAS, the City Council has considered the application, the recommendation of the Planning Commission and other evidence presented for consideration;

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the City Council of the City of South St. Paul, Minnesota, as follows:

1. Facts. The facts found by the Planning Commission as stated in the Planner’s report dated May 5, 2021 regarding this matter are hereby adopted and included herein by reference including the following attachments: a. Site Location Map b. Proposed Shed c. Proposed Shed Location d. Applicant’s Narrative e. FEMA Map of Gun Club Showing Proposed Shed

2. Findings.

A. The City Council determines that the proposed Variance is consistent with the following criteria:

i. That the variance is in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the ordinance.

The variance is in reasonable harmony with the general purpose of the ordinance which is to prevent a property from having an overwhelming amount of accessory structures which clutter the site. In general, properties that involve a large number of buildings are supposed to be processed as Planned Unit Developments but that option is not appropriate for the Gun Club due to its complicated status as a lawful nonconforming use that has limited expansion rights guaranteed by State Statute. The nature of the Gun Club differs from a traditional business use in that there are many structures that serve the principal use of the site to create a user experience.

ii. That the terms of the variance are consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.

The variance does not contradict the comprehensive plan.

iii. That economic considerations are not the reasoning for the variance.

Economic considerations are not the reasoning for the variance. The Applicant desires to have additional storage to improve the functionality of the property.

iv. That the Property Owner proposed to utilize the property in a reasonable manner.

The property owner is proposing to use their property in a reasonable manner by storing equipment in an enclosed building to keep the grounds orderly and to prevent the equipment from being damaged or stolen.

v. That the plight of the property is not due to the circumstances by the property owner.

The South St. Paul Rod and Gun Club has been in South St. Paul since the mid- 1930s. The facility was built before the City created its first zoning code. As the zoning code has evolved over the 90 years that the Gun Club has existed, language was never included to provide the Gun Club with the ability to have multiple accessory structures to serve the use of the site. Up until the 1990s, properties in the industrial district had few regulations and could develop essentially as they saw fit, so there was little need to create standards to codify the unique relationship of accessory structures at the Gun Club. The site’s use is most similar to a private recreational day camp as opposed to an industrial or manufacturing operation.

vi. That the variance will not alter the essential character of the neighborhood.

The addition of a shed at the Gun Club will not impact the character of the site or the surrounding properties.

B. The City Council approves the variance subject to the following conditions:

A. Consistency with Submitted Plans. The shed’s design must be substantially consistent with the submitted plans and its location must be substantially consistent with the submitted site plan.

B. Permit Required. The Applicant shall obtain a miscellaneous permit prior to installing the shed.

C. Compliance with Zoning Requirement for Sheds. The applicant shall adhere to setback requirements, exterior material requirements, and other relevant zoning requirement for sheds.

D. Installation Standards. In accordance with the City Code, the shed shall be anchored to a concrete slab or otherwise securely fastened to the ground by other methods approved by the Building Official.

E. Termination of the Variances. Per City Code, the variance will terminate if improvements have not substantially begun within one (1) year from the date of approval of the variance. The violation of any condition of approval may result in the termination of the variance, following a hearing by the City Council.

Adopted this 17th day of May, 2021.

Item Description: Public Hearing for a Variance for An Additional Accessory Reviewed By: Michael Healy, City Planner Structure at 600 Gun Club Road

ACTION REQUESTED A motion recommending approval or denial of a variance for an 8’ x 10’ accessory structure (shed) at 600 Gun Club Road.

BACKGROUND

Application

The Applicant, George Derks on behalf of the South St. Paul Rod and Gun Club, is seeking the following approval:

1. A variance to allow an additional accessory structure (shed) at 600 Gun Club Road.

Review Times Application Submittal: April 5, 2021 Planning Commission: May 5, 2021 Tentative City Council Meeting: May 17, 2021 60-Day Review Deadline: June 4, 2021

Request

The applicant has requested a variance to allow an 8’ x 10’ resin shed that a member is proposing to purchase and donate to the Gun Club. The shed would be used to store firearm safety training equipment and classroom training aids. No firearms or live ammunition would be stored in the proposed shed. The shed would not be visible from the road and would meet all setback requirements. The shed would match the exterior materials of the Gun Club’s main building. The shed is less than 200 square feet, so only a zoning permit is required for the structure. A variance is necessary for the proposed accessory structure because only one accessory structure is allowed for each principal building on a non-residential site. The site is lawful nonconforming and is “grandfathered” to have one principal structure and multiple accessory structure but any new accessory structure requires a variance. Background

The South St. Paul Rod and Gun Club has been in South St. Paul since 1935. The Gun Club Property is about 81 acres in size and is located generally south of interstate 494 and east of Gun Club Road. The Gun Club offers outdoor rifle and pistol ranges that are open year-round. The site has a main club house with a pro shop, restaurants, pavilion, and a full bar.

The property is zoned “I, Industrial” and is considered legal non-conforming as gun ranges are not an allowed use in the Industrial District. The property has special rights under the Minnesota Shooting Range Protection Act or Minnesota State Chapter 87A. This statue allows legal non-conforming shooting ranges to “conduct additional shooting activities within the range's lawful property boundaries as of the date the range became a nonconforming use, provided the shooting range remains in compliance with noise and shooting range performance standards...” This means that the Gun Club can add additional shooting activities even though the property’s use is legal non-conforming.

In addition to being in the Industrial District, the Gun Club is also within the Floodplain districts. These are special district that apply to the properties within the FEMA flood insurance rate maps 27037C0041E, 27037C0043E, 27037C0044E, and 27037C0107E. The Gun Club has sections of its property that are within the Floodway District and others that fall into the Flood Fringe District. A map of these districts can be found as Attachment D.

Most properties function with one principal structure and one accessory structure that serves that principal structure/use. The Gun Club’s use is unique in that there is one principal structure and multiple accessory structures that work together to create an experience for the site users. This site is most similar to a ‘private recreational day camp’ use.

Relevant Previous Approvals

The South St. Paul Road and Gun Club has previously received a number of approvals for accessory structures at the site, including:

• 1983- Special Use Permit (SUP) and Variance for Metal Accessory Building • 1987- SUP for Manufactured Building • 2000- Picnic Shelter CUP • 2003- Clubhouse Addition CUP • 2016- Permanent Rifle Firing Shed CUP • 2016- Storage Container IUP • 2017- Temporary Rifle Firing Structure IUP • 2017- Temporary Shot Gun Stand IUP • 2019- Temporary Shot Gun Stand IUP • 2019- Temporary Rifle Firing Structure IUP

Relevant Code

Two sections of the City Code are relevant to the request: Section 118-171 and Section 118-208.

Section 118-171 lists standards for properties that are within the Floodplain districts. Section 118-171 (d) lists performance standards for properties in the Floodway District. Section 118-171(e) lists performance standards for properties in the Flood Fringe District. The South St. Paul Rod and Gun Club has sections of its property in each of these districts.

Section 118-208 regulates accessory structures and buildings. Section 118-208 (b) regulates the number of accessory structures that can be on a site and Section 118-208 (e) regulates the maximum size of accessory structures.

Why Is This Not An IUP/CUP Request?

Historically, certain accessory structures at the Gun Club have been approved either with a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) or an Interim Use Permit (IUP) because the Gun Club is located in the Floodplain Districts. These districts are based on flood insurance rate maps prepared by the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Any accessory structures located within a “floodway” as designated by FEMA flood insurance maps requires a Conditional Use Permit. The structures constructed with a Special Use Permit or Conditional Use Permit in 1983, 1987, 2000, and 2003 were all structures that were placed in a floodway. These structures are in flood zone AE which has an 1% annual change of flooding.

The accessory structure approvals that took place between 2016 and 2019 were generally for accessory structures that were temporary. Section 118-208 requires a conditional use permit for any accessory structure larger than 200 square feet. Many of these structures are intended to be temporary structures which is why staff processed these non-permanent structures with an IUP. The City Council has consistently stated that they would prefer to see the Gun Club invest in building more permanent structures and move away from their reliance on temporary structures.

The proposed shed is less than 200 square feet which means the structures does not need a CUP per Section 118-208. The proposed structure is outside of the flood plain and therefore does not require any additional special approvals related to flooding risk.

Variance Analysis

The Planning Commission is asked to review the proposed variance using the criteria laid out in the City Code. Staff has drafted an analysis that the Planning Commission can use if they wish to recommend approval of the variance: a. That the variance is in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the ordinance The variance is in reasonable harmony with the general purpose of the ordinance which is to prevent a property from having an overwhelming amount of accessory structures which clutter the site. In general, properties that involve a large number of buildings are supposed to be processed as Planned Unit Developments but that option is not appropriate for the Gun Club due to its complicated status as a lawful nonconforming use that has limited expansion rights guaranteed by State Statute. The nature of the Gun Club differs from a traditional business use in that there are many structures that serve the principal use of the site to create a user experience. b. That the terms of the variance are consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The variance does not contradict the comprehensive plan. c. That economic considerations are not the reasoning for the variance. Economic considerations are not the reasoning for the variance. The Applicant desires to have additional storage to improve the functionality of the property. d. That the Property Owner proposes to utilize the property in a reasonable manner The property owner is proposing to use their property in a reasonable manner by storing equipment in an enclosed building to keep the grounds orderly and to prevent the equipment from being damaged or stolen. e. That the plight of the property is not due to the circumstances created by the property owner

The South St. Paul Rod and Gun Club has been in South St. Paul since the mid-1930s. The facility was built before the City created its first zoning code. As the zoning code has evolved over the 90 years that the Gun Club has existed, language was never included to provide the Gun Club with the ability to have multiple accessory structures to serve the use of the site. Up until the 1990s, properties in the industrial district had few regulations and could develop essentially as they saw fit, so there was little need to create standards to codify the unique relationship of accessory structures at the Gun Club. The site’s use is most similar to a private recreational day camp as opposed to an industrial or manufacturing operation. f. That the variance will not alter the essential character of the neighborhood. The addition of a shed at the Gun Club will not impact the character of the site or the surrounding properties.

Staff Discussion and Recommended Action

Staff recommends approval of the variance. The variance is consistent with the City Council’s longstanding stance that they want the Gun Club to invest in permanent structures and stop relying so heavily on temporary structures such as converted trailers. The variance would allow the Gun Club additional storage at the site and prevent exterior storage. The proposed location of the shed is hidden from the view of roads and is outside of the floodway. It is a good location for this type of structure. Staff recommend approval of the variance subject to the following conditions of approval:

1. Consistency with Submitted Plans. The shed’s design must be substantially consistent with the submitted plans and its location must be substantially consistent with the submitted site plan.

2. Permit Required. The Applicant shall obtain a miscellaneous permit prior to installing the shed.

3. Compliance with Zoning Requirements for Sheds. The applicant shall adhere to setback requirements, exterior material requirements, and other relevant zoning requirements for sheds.

4. Installation standards. In accordance with the City Code, the shed shall be anchored to a concrete slab or otherwise securely fastened to the ground by other methods approved by the Building Official.

5. Variance Termination. Per City Code, the variance will terminate if improvements have not substantially begun within one (1) year from the date of approval of the variance. The violation of any condition of approval may result in the termination of the variance, following a hearing by the City Council.

Required Action

The Planning Commission has the following actions available on the proposed application:

A. Approval. If the Planning Commission wishes to recommend approval of the variance, the following action should be taken:

• Motion to recommend approval of a variance for an additional accessory structure at 600 Gun Club Road.

B. Denial. If the Planning Commission wishes to recommend denial of the proposed setback variance, the following action should be taken: • Motion to recommend denial of a variance for an additional accessory structure at 600 Gun Club Road, finding that the variance does not present a practical difficulty.

If the Planning Commission wishes to recommend denial, they should adopt a finding that the project fails to meet the variance criteria.

Agenda Item: Conditional Use Permit for Truck Repair at 116 Hardman Court

Action to be considered:

Motion to approve Resolution 2021-85 approving a Conditional Use Permit for truck repair at 116 Hardman Court.

Overview:

Application

The Applicant, Andrew Biggs on behalf of AVM Group LLC, owns a 20,000 square foot office warehouse building that was constructed in 2020. The building consists of four (4) 5,000 square foot suites. The Applicant is seeking a City approval to allow a new tenant to move into one of the suites:

1. A Conditional Use Permit to allow Interstate Truck Driving School to use the suite addressed “116 Hardman Court” as a maintenance facility for their truck fleet.

Background

AVM Group LLC was approved in June of 2020 to construct a roughly 20,000 square foot office warehouse building at the southeastern end of the Hardman Court cul-de-sac in the Bridgepoint Industrial Park. Their building contains four (4) different 5,000 square foot suites, one of which is occupied by AVM Construction’s contracting operation. There is a screened exterior storage area at the rear of the lot behind the building which is governed by a Conditional Use Permit.

Construction of the shell of the building has been completed and AVM Group LLC is now actively marketing the three (3) vacant suites to prospective tenants. The interior of each suite will be finished according to each tenant’s individual needs.

AVM has reached a tentative agreement with Interstate Truck Driving School, a business with an existing presence in South St. Paul, to occupy one of the vacant suites. Interstate Truck Driving School owns a fleet of trucks that are used for driving instruction and would use the suite for storage and for light maintenance of their truck fleet.

Zoning

The property is zoned I-1 Light Industrial. This zoning district allows offices, manufacturing, warehousing, and printing/publishing as “permitted” uses where a City Council approval is not needed. Most other industrial uses, including “automobile, truck, and other vehicle repair” are listed as conditional uses, meaning that the use is allowed but a Conditional Use Permit is required.

The proposed business would have “truck repair” as its principal use so a conditional use permit is required before they can move forward with occupying the space. Summary of Proposed Business

The Applicant provided the following summary of the proposed business’s operations:

• The space will be used for maintenance of Interstate Truck Driving School’s fleet vehicles.

• There will be somewhere between 1-5 employees working at the site on an average day.

• The typical hours of operation are Monday-Friday from 7 AM to 5 PM but there may occasionally be use of the space outside of those hours.

• The business may make use of the existing approved exterior storage area but will not store any materials that may be hazardous to the health of the river through stormwater runoff. There will be no exterior storage of unlicensed vehicles, junk vehicles, or automotive parts or debris.

• The repair shop will not be open to the general public, it will only support Interstate Driving School’s operation.

Discussion

This is a relatively straightforward request that appears to fully comply with the I-1 zoning district rules. The proposed business is very limited in its scope of operations and will have a minimal impact on the surrounding area. Because the repair facility will not serve the general public, there is no compelling reason to attach strict conditions to the Conditional Use Permit. The CUP should specify, however, that the facility cannot serve the public. Any plan to expand operations in the future and provide service to the general public would require a CUP amendment and further review.

PLANNING COMMISSION PUBLIC HEARING AND RECOMMENDATION

The Planning Commission held a public hearing at their May 5, 2021 meeting. No members of the public submitted comments or attended the meeting. The Planning Commission recommended approval of the Conditional Use Permit with Staff’s recommended conditions with a 5-0 vote.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION

Staff recommends approval of Resolution 2021-85 approving a Conditional Use Permit for truck repair at 116 Hardman Court.

Prepared By: Meeting Date: Michael Healy, City Planner 5/5/2021

Item Description: Public Hearing for Conditional Use Permit for Truck Repair at 116 Hardman Court

ACTION REQUESTED A motion recommending approval or denial of a Conditional Use Permit for truck repair at 116 Hardman Court.

BACKGROUND/ DISCUSSION

Application

The Applicant, Andrew Biggs on behalf of AVM Group LLC, owns a 20,000 square foot office warehouse building that was constructed in 2020. The building consists of four (4) 5,000 square foot suites. The Applicant is seeking a City approval to allow a new tenant to move into one of the suites:

1. A Conditional Use Permit to allow Interstate Truck Driving School to use the suite addressed “116 Hardman Court” as a maintenance facility for their truck fleet.

Review Timeline

Application Submittal: April 5, 2021 Planning Commission: May 5, 2021 Tentative City Council Meeting: March 17, 2021 60-Day Review Deadline: June 4, 2021

Background

AVM Group LLC was approved in June of 2020 to construct a roughly 20,000 square foot office warehouse building at the southeastern end of the Hardman Court cul-de-sac in the Bridgepoint Industrial Park. Their building contains four (4) different 5,000 square foot suites, one of which is occupied by AVM Construction’s contracting operation. There is a screened exterior storage area at the rear of the lot behind the building which is governed by a Conditional Use Permit.

Construction of the shell of the building has been completed and AVM Group LLC is now actively marketing the three (3) vacant suites to prospective tenants. The interior of each suite will be finished according to each tenant’s individual needs. AVM has reached a tentative agreement with Interstate Truck Driving School, a business with an existing presence in South St. Paul, to occupy one of the vacant suites. Interstate Truck Driving School owns a fleet of trucks that are used for driving instruction and would use the suite for storage and for light maintenance of their truck fleet.

Zoning

The property is zoned I-1 Light Industrial. This zoning district allows offices, manufacturing, warehousing, and printing/publishing as “permitted” uses where a City Council approval is not needed. Most other industrial uses, including “automobile, truck, and other vehicle repair” are listed as conditional uses, meaning that the use is allowed but a Conditional Use Permit is required.

The proposed business would have “truck repair” as its principal use so a conditional use permit is required before they can move forward with occupying the space.

Summary of Proposed Business

The Applicant provided the following summary of the proposed business’s operations:

• The space will be used for maintenance of Interstate Truck Driving School’s fleet vehicles.

• There will be somewhere between 1-5 employees working at the site on an average day.

• The typical hours of operation are Monday-Friday from 7 AM to 5 PM but there may occasionally be use of the space outside of those hours.

• The business may make use of the existing approved exterior storage area but will not store any materials that may be hazardous to the health of the river through stormwater runoff. There will be no exterior storage of unlicensed vehicles, junk vehicles, or automotive parts or debris.

• The repair shop will not be open to the general public, it will only support Interstate Driving School’s operation.

Conditional Use Permit

The Applicant needs a conditional use permit in order to have “truck repair” as a principal use in the suite addressed 116 Hardman Court. The Code states that a Conditional Use Permit should only be recommended for approval if the Planning Commission has made the following determinations:

(1) That the conditional use, with such conditions as the commission shall determine and attach, conforms to the general purpose and intent of this chapter. (2) If the application is based on the conditional use provision in this chapter that the issuance conforms to the general characteristics of the district of which it will become a part. (3) That the conditional use will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of property in the neighborhood for uses permitted in the district or districts affected. (4) That adequate utilities, access roads, streets, drainage, and other necessary facilities have been or will be provided. (5) That adequate measures have been or will be taken to provide ingress and egress in such a manner as to minimize traffic congestion and hazards in the public streets.

Discussion

This is a relatively straightforward request that appears to fully comply with the I-1 zoning district rules. The proposed business is very limited in its scope of operations and will have a minimal impact on the surrounding area. Because the repair facility will not serve the general public, there is no compelling reason to attach strict conditions to the Conditional Use Permit. The CUP should specify, however, that the facility cannot serve the public. Any plan to expand operations in the future and provide service to the general public would require a CUP amendment and further review.

Staff Recommendation

Staff recommends approval of the Conditional Use Permit, subject to the following conditions:

1. Compliance with Plans/Submittals. The site shall be utilized in substantial conformance with the following plans on file with the Community Development Department.

a. Application/Narrative (A. Biggs) dated April 5, 2021 b. 116 Hardman Court Site/Building Plan (Rosa Architectural Group) dated July 10, 2021

2. Building Permits Required. Building permits are required for any proposed construction. All building plans and specifications are subject to the review and approval of the City Building Official and the South Metro Fire Marshal.

3. Vehicle Repair Performed in Enclosed Building. All vehicle repair shall take place within an enclosed building.

4. Noise Mitigation. Noise from the facility shall be controlled to ensure that the use does not adversely impact adjacent uses such as the Mississippi River Trail. The overhead door to the facility shall be kept shut when vehicle repair is taking place.

5. Use of Property’s Exterior Storage Area. The exterior storage area on the subject property will continue to be governed by Conditional Use Permit via Resolution #2020-78. The truck repair business shall be permitted to utilize the exterior storage area but there shall be no exterior storage of tires, automotive parts, or vehicle repair debris. Additionally, there shall be no exterior storage of vehicles waiting repairs that are unlicensed and/or not operable under their own power.

6. No Vehicle Repair Services Offered to the General Public. This conditional use permit only authorizes the use of the suite addressed 116 Hardman Court as an “in-house” vehicle repair facility for fleet vehicles owned or leased by the entity that is operating the truck repair facility. No vehicle repair services may be offered to the general public without an amendment to the conditional use permit.

7. Conditional Use Permit Termination. Per city Code, the Conditional Use Permits will terminate if the improvement has not been substantially begun within one (1) year from the date of approval. Per City Code, the City Council may revoke the Conditional Use Permits, following a public hearing, if any of the above conditions have been violated.

Required Action

The Planning Commission has the following actions available on the proposed application:

A. Approval. If the Planning Commission wishes to recommend approval of the Conditional Use Permit, the following action should be taken:

• Motion to recommend approval of the Conditional Use Permit for truck repair at 116 Hardman Court, subject to the Conditions laid out in the Staff report.

B. Denial. If the Planning Commission wishes to recommend denial of any or all of the proposed Conditional Use Permit, the following action should be taken:

• Motion to recommend denial of the Conditional Use Permit for truck repair at 116 Hardman Court.

Agenda Item: Conditional Use Permit and Variance for Illuminated Wall Art on The Drover at 161 Concord Exchange North

Action to be considered:

Motion to approve Resolution 2021-86 approving a Variance and Conditional Use Permit for illuminated wall art on “The Drover” at 161 Concord Exchange North.

Overview:

Application

The Applicant, Master Properties, is requesting two City approvals relating to their proposal to install illuminated wall art on the north side of “The Drover” apartment building at 161 Concord Street North:

1. A Conditional Use Permit for an exterior light source that is more than 16 feet off the ground in the Concord Gateway Mixed-Use (CGMU) zoning district.

2. A Variance to allow an exterior light source that is not downcast in the Concord Gateway Mixed Use (CGMU) Mixed-Use zoning district.

Background

The Applicant owns “The Drover,” an apartment building that is located at the southwest corner of Concord Exchange and Grand Avenue. The skyway that connects “The Drover” to the small office building across the street is being removed because that building across the street is being torn down for redevelopment. The skyway was constructed by the South St. Paul Housing and Redevelopment Authority in 1974 and is governed by a written agreement. The agreement requires the City to restore the north wall of the Drover “to a serviceable condition, in a reasonably esthetic and workmanlike manner” if the skyway is ever removed.

The Drover’s main exterior building material is gravel-faced concrete precast panels which is not a building material that can easily be recreated to patch the hole that will be left in the north wall. City Staff had initially encouraged the Drover’s owner to plan to restore the north wall with either decorative siding to match the rooftop patio area or some type of painted mural. The building owner, however, declined to take Staff’s suggestions and is instead proposing to fill the hole with “illuminated wall art.” They have obtained two historic flashing neon signs that at one time hung outside a bar in Minneapolis. The signs are painted images with neon tubes over the paintings. One sign depicts a cowboy riding a horse and the second sign depicts a steer being lassoed. The building owner is proposing to install these flashing neon ornaments on the north wall of the Drover to fill the hole. The City Council has reviewed this concept at Worksession meetings and has been extremely supportive of the proposal. Zoning Status and Site Conditions

The subject property is zoned Concord Gateway Mixed Use Subdistrict 1 (CGMU-1) which is a mixed- use zoning district with strict architectural requirements that was adopted in 2003 with the goal of recreating a traditional early 1900’s downtown main street along Concord Exchange. The subject property is also located within the Mississippi River Corridor Critical Area zoning overlay.

The building on the subject property was constructed in 1974 as an office building but this use ceased a number of years ago when Wells Fargo vacated the building. In 2017, the City approved a Conditional Use Permit which allowed the building to be converted into a 68-unit apartment complex.

Signage vs. Art

The City Code has a definition of what constitutes a “sign” and has strict rules for signage which regulate sign size, height, illumination, location, etc. Many types of signage are completely prohibited citywide, including painted signs, and many other types of signage are tightly controlled through performance standards.

The City has historically taken the stance that murals and other non-advertising wall art are NOT signage. This position has led to a number of murals being painted on the sides of buildings on Southview Boulevard and Marie Avenue, something that would not be possible if murals were considered signs since “painted signs” are expressly prohibited by the sign ordinance. The proposed paint and neon light wall display at “The Drover” does not directly promote the apartment building as signage and can reasonably be considered “wall art.” The City Attorney has advised that the City should be consistent in its policies and should treat the proposed steer and cowboy wall art the same way that is has treated other wall art in recent years.

Why a Conditional Use Permit and Variance?

The City generally does not regulate “wall art” and all of the painted murals on Southview Boulevard and Marie Avenue were installed without permits or any type of approval from the City. The difference here is that the cowboy and steer are proposed to be framed by neon light tubes that can flash on and off to animate a scene of the cowboy lassoing the steer. The Concord Gateway Mixed-Use (CGMU) zoning district has strict rules when it comes to exterior lighting. Per City Code Section 118-125 which regulates the CGMU district:

All exterior lighting in the CGMU district shall be downcast cutoff type fixtures and shall follow the styles and types identified in the framework manual. No light source may be more than 16 feet above the ground, except by conditional use permit for buildings more than 20 feet in height.

The highest point of the neon lights will be roughly 23 feet off the ground which requires a Conditional Use Permit under the CGMU ordinance. A variance is required because the neon lights will shine directly outward and are not downcast/cutoff type lighting.

Placing Conditions on the Conditional Use Permit and Variance

During the City Council Worksession, several Councilmembers asked Staff to explore the possibility of approving the CUP and Variance without conditions or with limited conditions and then coming back later to add stricter conditions if there are problems. Staff reviewed this idea with the City Attorney who advised that this approach legally is not allowed. Once the CUP has been granted, the City cannot revisit it in the future to attach more conditions. If the City wants to attach conditions to the approval, it needs to be done now. The City can potentially remove conditions in the future but cannot attach more. PLANNING COMMISSION PUBLIC HEARING AND RECOMMENDATION

The Planning Commission held a public hearing for the item at their May 5, 2021 meeting. No comments were received from the public and no members of the public were present to speak at the meeting.

The Planning Commissioners all agreed that there was a need to regulate the “flashing” activity to keep the neon art from being overly distracting to drivers or being a nuisance to surrounding property owners. Additionally, they all agreed that there was a need to regulate the times that the neon could be illuminated. The Planning Commission asked the Applicant if they would be amenable to “hours of operation” restrictions that required the neon to be turned off overnight and the Applicant stated that they had no issue with that type of restriction. The Applicant also shared with the Planning Commission that the art’s timing could be adjusted so that the images would flash more slowly if that was something that would make the display more acceptable. Staff explained to the Planning Commission that, per the Code, electronic signs are generally able to change their display once every 8 seconds in commercial areas and once every 15 seconds in residential areas. The proposed “wall art” is not a sign but those standards could still be useful in regulating it.

The Planning Commission voted 5-0 to recommend approval of the Conditional Use Permit and Variance with two additional conditions:

1. The lighting on the art must be turned off between 10 PM and 7 AM

2. The neon lighting may not transition between different images more frequently than once every 15 seconds.

Commissioner Felton requested that it be added to the record that he has apprehensions about art being used to fill the hole in the side of the Drover and that the City Council and City Attorney should review what it would mean if the Applicant sold the building and took their art with them. He asked that EDA Staff verify that the HRA’s 1974 skyway agreement would not require the City to pay for another wall restoration if the art was removed. EDA Staff has verified that the City is only financially responsible for repairing the hole left by the skyway removal one time and would not be responsible for any costs if the Applicant removes the art in the future and creates another hole.

Staff Recommendation

Staff recommends approval of Resolution 2021-86 approving a Variance and Conditional Use Permit for illuminated wall art on “The Drover” at 161 Concord Exchange North.

RESOLUTION NO. 2021-86

A RESOLUTION APPROVING AVARIANCE AND CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR ILLUMINATED WALL ART AT THE DROVER AT 161 CONCORD EXCHANGE NORTH

WHEREAS, the City received an application from Master Properties requesting the following approvals:  A Conditional Use Permit for an exterior light source that is more than 16 feet off the ground in the Concord Gateway Mixed-Use (CGMU) zoning district.  A Variance to allow an exterior light source that is not downcast in the Concord Gateway Mixed Use (CGMU) Mixed-Use zoning district. WHEREAS, the subject property is located at 161 Concord Exchange North (“the Property”); and is legally described as follows: (See Exhibit A)

WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a public hearing on the application at their May 5, 2021 meeting, preceded by notice as required by law; and

WHEREAS, the Planning Commission recommended Approval (5 –0) of the application at their May 5, 2021 meeting; and

WHEREAS, the City Council has considered the application, the recommendation of the Planning Commission and other evidence presented for consideration;

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of South St. Paul, Minnesota as follows:

1. Facts. The facts found by the Planning Commission as stated in the Planner’s report dated May 5, 2021 regarding this matter are hereby adopted and included herein by reference including the following attachments:

a. Site Location Map b. Cowboy Art Location Drawings c. Applicant’s Narrative d. Email from Lighting Specialist About Glare

2. Findings. Resolution 2021-86 May 17, 2021 Page 2 of 5

A. The City Council determines that the proposed variances are consistent with the following criteria: i. That the variance is in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the ordinance. The general purpose and intent of the ordinance is to require building lighting to be downcast to minimize light pollution. The proposed illuminated wall art incorporates targeted decorative lighting as an essential feature. This is very different than an exterior light that simply is not shielded properly.

ii. That the terms of the variance are consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The variance is not inconsistent with the comprehensive plan.

iii. That economic considerations are not the reasoning for the variance. The reasoning for the variance is the Applicant’s desire to install a piece of art on the side of their building.

iv. That the Property Owner proposes to utilize the property in a reasonable manner. Wall art is a reasonable façade treatment.

v. That the plight of the property is not due to the circumstances created by the property owner. The City is obligated to restore the hole in the side of the building that is being left by the removal of the skyway. The skyway is being torn down to benefit the property across the street and its removal does not provide direct benefit to the property owner. The property owner is proposing illuminated wall art as a strategy for filling the hole.

vi. The variance will not alter the essential character of the neighborhood. The City recently approved a Planned Unit Development that allowed non- downcast LED lighting as an architectural treatment on a new apartment building being built across the street from the subject property so there is Resolution 2021-86 May 17, 2021 Page 3 of 5

a precedent for waiving the standard. The streetscape along Concord Exchange is eclectic and the variance will not alter the essential character of the neighborhood.

B. The City Council determines that the proposed Conditional Use Permit is consistent with the following criteria:

i. That the conditional use, with such conditions as the commission shall determine and attach, conforms to the general purpose and intent of this chapter. ii. If the application is based on the conditional use provision in this chapter that the issuance conforms to the general characteristics of the district of which it will become a part. iii. That the conditional use will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of property in the neighborhood for uses permitted in the district or districts affected. iv. That adequate utilities, access roads, streets, drainage, and other necessary facilities have been or will be provided. v. That adequate measures have been or will be taken to provide ingress and egress in such a manner as to minimize traffic congestion and hazards in the public streets.

C. The City Council approves the Variance and Conditional Use Permit subject to the following conditions:

1. Compliance with Plans/Submittals. The site shall be utilized in substantial conformance with the following plans on file with the Community Development Department.

a. Application/Narrative (M. Heitzman) dated April 5, 2021 b. Cowboy Art Location Drawings dated March 31, 2021

2. Building Permits May Be Required. Building permits may be required for the proposed installation. All plans and specifications are subject to the review and approval of the City Building Official and Zoning Administrator.

3. Compliance with Glare Ordinance. The illuminated wall art must comply with the City’s glare ordinance. The City will reserve the right to require the lighting to be dimmed or turned off it is determined to be out of compliance.

4. Hours of Operation. The neon lighting on the wall art must be turned off each night between 10 PM and 7 AM.

5. Transition Frequency. The neon lighting on the wall art may not transition between different images more frequently than once every 15 seconds. Resolution 2021-86 May 17, 2021 Page 4 of 5

6. Conditional Use Permit Termination. Per city Code, the Conditional Use Permits will terminate if the improvement has not been substantially begun within one (1) year from the date of approval. Per City Code, the City Council may revoke the Conditional Use Permits, following a public hearing, if any of the above conditions have been violated.

7. Variance Termination. Per City Code, the variance will terminate if improvements have not substantially begun within 1 year from the date of approval.

Adopted this 17th day of May, 2021.

The Applicant, Master Properties, is requesting two City approvals relating to their proposal to install illuminated wall art on the north side of “The Drover” apartment building at 161 Concord Street North:

1. A Conditional Use Permit for an exterior light source that is more than 16 feet off the ground in the Concord Gateway Mixed-Use (CGMU) zoning district.

Review Timeline

Application Submittal: April 5, 2021 Planning Commission: May 5, 2021 Tentative City Council Meeting: March 17, 2021 60-Day Review Deadline: June 4, 2021

Background

The Applicant owns “The Drover,” an apartment building that is located at the southwest corner of Concord Exchange and Grand Avenue. The skyway that connects “The Drover” to the small office building across the street is being removed because that building across the street is being torn down for redevelopment. The skyway was constructed by the South St. Paul Housing and Redevelopment Authority in 1974 and is governed by a written agreement. The agreement requires the City to restore the north wall of the Drover “to a serviceable condition, in a reasonably esthetic and workmanlike manner” if the skyway is ever removed. The Drover’s main exterior building material is gravel-faced concrete precast panels which is not a building material that can easily be recreated to patch the hole that will be left in the north wall. City Staff had initially encouraged the Drover’s owner to plan to restore the north wall with either decorative siding to match the rooftop patio area or some type of painted mural. The building owner, however, declined to take Staff’s suggestions and is instead proposing to fill the hole with “illuminated wall art.” They have obtained two historic flashing neon signs that at one time hung outside a bar in Minneapolis. The signs are painted images with neon tubes over the paintings. One sign depicts a cowboy riding a horse and the second sign depicts a steer being lassoed. The building owner is proposing to install these flashing neon ornaments on the north wall of the Drover to fill the hole.

The Applicant’s proposal to mount the neon cowboy and neon bull on the side of their building was informally discussed by the City Council at two Worksession meetings on January 25th and April 12th of this year. The City Council is enthusiastically supportive of the proposal and thinks it is a fun and colorful way to beautify the side of the building. The Council feels the proposal is a nice throwback to South St. Paul’s history with cattle and cowboy culture. The City Council strongly encouraged the Applicant to move forward with their proposal and seek formal approvals.

Zoning Status and Site Conditions

The subject property is zoned Concord Gateway Mixed Use Subdistrict 1 (CGMU-1) which is a mixed-use zoning district with strict architectural requirements that was adopted in 2003 with the goal of recreating a traditional early 1900’s downtown main street along Concord Exchange. The subject property is also located within the Mississippi River Corridor Critical Area zoning overlay.

The building on the subject property was constructed in 1974 as an office building but this use ceased a number of years ago when Wells Fargo vacated the building. In 2017, the City approved a Conditional Use Permit which allowed the building to be converted into a 68-unit apartment complex. The apartment conversion primarily involved changes to the interior of the building although it did include the addition of a new rooftop patio which includes a small enclosure with decorative siding.

Signage vs. Art

The City Code has a definition of what constitutes a “sign” and has strict rules for signage which regulate sign size, height, illumination, location, etc. Many types of signage are completely prohibited citywide, including painted signs, and many other types of signage are tightly controlled through performance standards.

The City has historically taken the stance that murals and other noncommercial wall art are NOT signage as long as they do not directly promote the building’s occupant. This position has led to a number of murals being painted on the sides of buildings on Southview Boulevard and Marie Avenue, something that would not be possible if murals were considered signs since “painted signs” are expressly prohibited by the sign ordinance. The proposed neon display at “The Drover” does not directly promote the apartment building and can reasonably be considered “wall art.” The City Attorney has advised that the City should be consistent in its policies and should treat the proposed steer and cowboy wall art the same way that is has treated other wall art in the past.

Why a Conditional Use Permit and Variance?

The City generally does not regulate “wall art” and all of the painted murals on Southview Boulevard and Marie Avenue were installed without permits or any type of approval from the City. The difference here is that the cowboy and steer are proposed to be framed by neon light tubes that can flash on and off to animate a scene of the cowboy lassoing the steer. The Concord Gateway Mixed-Use (CGMU) zoning district has strict rules when it comes to exterior lighting. Per City Code Section 118-125 which regulates the CGMU district:

All exterior lighting in the CGMU district shall be downcast cutoff type fixtures and shall follow the styles and types identified in the framework manual. No light source may be more than 16 feet above the ground, except by conditional use permit for buildings more than 20 feet in height.

The highest point of the neon lights will be roughly 23 feet off the ground which requires a Conditional Use Permit under the CGMU ordinance. A variance is required because the neon lights will shine directly outward and are not downcast/cutoff type lighting.

Glare Considerations

The City Code regulates glare to prevent private exterior lighting from creating a nuisance by spilling its light onto adjacent properties. Glare is regulated citywide but there are even stricter rules for glare in the CGMU zoning district. In the CGMU district:

Lighting levels shall not exceed one-half footcandle at the abutting property line or right-of-way line, and no direct glare from lighting on site shall extend onto the public street, public open space or neighboring properties.

City Staff advised the Applicant that they must have a photometric plan prepared, just as the City would normally require for any type of business that was proposing to install new exterior lighting. The Applicant hired Daniel J. Kaufman of the Kaufman Sign Company to review the “wall art” and advise them on this matter. Mr. Kaufman has stated that a photometric plan is not necessary in this situation as neon lights do not create glare. He stated that neon lights are very intense and the neon light itself will be highly visible at a great distance from the property line. There will be no significant secondary or spillover light, however, and the lighting will not create any glare.

Discussion

The City Council believes that the proposed neon wall art will be a valuable addition to the Concord/Grand streetscape and has encouraged City Staff to work with the Applicant to make sure this project is successful. As previously stated, the City is not normally in the business of regulating “art” and this project is only subject to City regulations because of the lighting component.

Across the street from the subject property, the City recently granted “The Yards” apartment project a Planned Unit Development approval which included permission to have a glowing LED strip at the top of their building as an architectural feature. That glowing strip required the same Conditional Use Permit as the neon cowboy project and the glowing strip also required the waiver of the rule requiring all exterior lighting to be downcast.

From Chief Messerich:

“I hope it isn’t a distraction for drivers, as there will be increased traffic at this intersection once the Yards in occupied.”

Potential Conditions of Approval

The proposed illuminated wall art will face out towards the south façade of “The Yards” apartment building which will soon be under construction. The proposed flashing neon lights could potentially create a nuisance for some residents living in “The Yards” in addition to potentially being distracting to drivers. The City does have the authority to attach conditions of approval to the lighting to mitigate the potential impact. Some potential conditions that could be attached are:

1. Hours of Operation. The wall art lighting could be required to be turned off at a certain time each night.

2. No Flashing Allowed. Staff will share a video of the flashing neon effect the meeting. The City has the authority to prohibit flashing and require this to be a static neon light display.

3. Timing Restriction for Flashing. The City Code does allow changeable electronic signs in many zoning districts but always includes a rule that the signage cannot change more than once every 8 seconds. If the City does want to allow the neon cowboy and steer to flash but wanted to restrict the frequency, the CUP could potentially require the “illuminated wall art” to follow the 8-second rule.

4. Set Performance Times. The flashing neon could be allowed to “perform” once or twice a day during set hours but the neon would otherwise need to remain static.

During the City Council Worksession, several Councilmembers discussed the possibility of approving the CUP and Variance without conditions or with limited conditions and then coming back later to add stricter conditions if there are problems. Staff reviewed this idea with the City Attorney who advised that this approach is not legal. Once the CUP has been granted, the City cannot revisit it in the future to attach more conditions. If the City wants to attach conditions to the approval, they need to be attached now. The City can potentially remove conditions in the future but cannot attach more.

Conditional Use Permit Review Criteria

The Planning Commission is tasked with reviewing the Conditional Use Permit request through the following lens:

Sec. 118-40. - Conditional use permits.

(d) Standards for approving a conditional use permit. The planning commission shall make the following affirmative determinations before a conditional use permit may be recommended for approval by the city council: (1) That the conditional use, with such conditions as the commission shall determine and attach, conforms to the general purpose and intent of this chapter. (2) If the application is based on the conditional use provision in this chapter that the issuance conforms to the general characteristics of the district of which it will become a part. (3) That the conditional use will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of property in the neighborhood for uses permitted in the district or districts affected. (4) That adequate utilities, access roads, streets, drainage, and other necessary facilities have been or will be provided. (5) That adequate measures have been or will be taken to provide ingress and egress in such a manner as to minimize traffic congestion and hazards in the public streets. (6) In residential districts, certain uses may not be considered appropriate within the interior of residential neighborhoods because of noise, traffic, or other conditions that would tend to adversely affect the residential character of the neighborhood and possibly reduce property values. These may be considered appropriate only on the periphery of residential neighborhoods or under such conditions as the city council may deem proper. The uses may represent "buffer" uses for those areas lying between residential dwellings and nonresidential uses.

Variance Review Criteria

In order to recommend approval of the variance, the Planning Commission must adopt findings that the proposal satisfies the variance criteria listed in the zoning ordinance. Staff has drafted findings that could be potentially used in support of the variance:

a. That the variance is in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the ordinance. The general purpose and intent of the ordinance is to require building lighting to be downcast to minimize light pollution. The proposed illuminated wall art incorporates targeted decorative lighting as an essential feature. This is very different than an exterior light that simply is not shielded properly.

b. That the terms of the variance are consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The variance is not inconsistent with the comprehensive plan.

c. That economic considerations are not the reasoning for the variance. The reasoning for the variance is the Applicant’s desire to install a piece of art on the side of their building.

d. That the Property Owner proposes to utilize the property in a reasonable manner. Wall art is a reasonable façade treatment.

e. That the plight of the property is not due to the circumstances created by the property owner. The City is obligated to restore the hole in the side of the building that is being left by the removal of the skyway. The skyway is being torn down to benefit the property across the street and its removal does not provide direct benefit to the property owner. The property owner is proposing illuminated wall art as a strategy for filling the hole.

f. The variance will not alter the essential character of the neighborhood. The City recently approved a Planned Unit Development that allowed non-downcast LED lighting as an architectural treatment on a new apartment building being built across the street from the subject property so there is a precedent for waiving the standard. The streetscape along Concord Exchange is eclectic and the variance will not alter the essential character of the neighborhood.

Staff Recommendation

Staff recommends approval of the Conditional Use Permit and Variance, subject to the following conditions:

1. Compliance with Plans/Submittals. The site shall be utilized in substantial conformance with the following plans on file with the Community Development Department.

a. Application/Narrative (M. Heitzman) dated April 5, 2021 b. Cowboy Art Location Drawings dated March 31, 2021

2. Building Permits May Be Required. Building permits may be required for the proposed installation. All plans and specifications are subject to the review and approval of the City Building Official and Zoning Administrator.

3. Compliance with Glare Ordinance. The illuminated wall art must comply with the City’s glare ordinance. The City will reserve the right to require the lighting to be dimmed or turned off it is determined to be out of compliance.

4. Conditional Use Permit Termination. Per city Code, the Conditional Use Permits will terminate if the improvement has not been substantially begun within one (1) year from the date of approval. Per City Code, the City Council may revoke the Conditional Use Permits, following a public hearing, if any of the above conditions have been violated.

5. Variance Termination. Per City Code, the variance will terminate if improvements have not substantially begun within 1 year from the date of approval.

In addition to these five conditions, Staff would advise the Planning Commission to review and discuss the potential conditions listed earlier in this memo that would regulate the flashing of the neon light and/or the hours of operation. The City would be well within its rights to place such conditions upon the approval. As previously mentioned, such conditions could potentially be removed in the future but no new conditions can be added once the Conditional Use Permit has been approved.

Required Action

The Planning Commission has the following actions available on the proposed application:

A. Approval. If the Planning Commission wishes to recommend approval of the Conditional Use Permit and Variance, the following action should be taken:

• Motion to recommend approval of the Conditional Use Permit and Variance for exterior lighting on a piece of wall art at 161 Concord Exchange North, subject to the Conditions laid out in the Staff report (and any additional conditions that the Planning Commission wishes to recommend).

B. Denial. If the Planning Commission wishes to recommend denial of the Conditional Use Permit and Variance, the following action should be taken:

• Motion to recommend denial of the Conditional Use Permit and Variance for exterior lighting on a piece of wall art at 161 Concord Street North.

A CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT DATE: May 17, 2021 10-F DEPARTMENT: LIBRARY & ADMINISTRATION Prepared By: Kathy Halgren & Joel Hanson ADMINISTRATOR: JRH

AGENDA ITEM: Resolution 2021-75 to Dakota County Board of Commissioners Regarding Library Project

ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: ADOPT RESOLUTION 2021-75 FOR SUBMITTAL TO THE DAKOTA COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS REGARDING THE CITY’S DESIRE TO BECOME PART OF THE DAKOTA COUNTY LIBRARY SYSTEM RESULTING IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW LIBRARY IN SOUTH ST. PAUL.

OVERVIEW:

The Library Board and the City Council have been trying to resolve the challenges associated with upgrading the South St. Paul Library facilities for a number of years. This past November, the Dakota County Board of Commissioners unanimously voted to undertake a programming study to determine the appropriately sized library needed to serve SSP. They also asked the study to tell them what a $6 million dollar project would buy.

The results of the study indicated SSP needs a library of 16,146 square feet based on their service model used in other similar Dakota County communities. The lowest cost option to accomplish that objective would be to utilize the City owned land at 7th & Marie. The total estimated cost for this option (exclusive of land) is $8,266,000. To build at the current library site would cost $11,463,000 ($3,197,000 more). That project would not provide any off-street parking.

In terms of what a $6 million project budget could buy, the study concluded the following: ♦ 11,700 square feet at City’s 7th & Marie site ♦ 8,500 square feet at existing Library site ♦ A remodel of the current Library (11,840 square feet) Neither the Library Board or the City Council indicated that any of these options were viable largely due to these projects lacking sufficient community space and the overall reduction in the recommended base program of 16,146 square feet.

The Dakota County Board of Commissioners will review this report at their General Government & Policy Committee meeting on June 8th. It is imperative that we send a supportive message to the County Board as they consider the possibility of incorporating the SSP Library into the Dakota County Library system and then building a new facility to meet the needs of this library. To that end, Resolution 2021-75 is attached for your consideration. The Council should discuss the resolution to ensure it sends the correct message. It should be noted that the Library Board is also adopting a similar resolution to be forwarded to Dakota County. This resolution is based on their decision this past Monday to support the 7th & Marie site for a new 16,146 square foot library and to reaffirm their commitment to become part of the DCL system. The Library Board’s decision is also contingent upon their involvement in resolving the details of the transfer itself as well as design considerations for the new facility.

SOUTH ST. PAUL LIBRARY BOARD RECOMMENDATIONS FOR FUTURE COUNTY LIBRARY IN SOUTH ST. PAUL

WHEREAS, the South St. Paul Library Board has been studying various possibilities for an improved library facility to provide better public service since 2016; and

WHEREAS, the South St. Paul Library Board values the unique character of our current library building but recognizes its challenges for staff and visitors alike as well as the high cost of renovation; and

WHEREAS, the South St. Paul Library Board voted on March 9, 2020, to the submission to the County of the Proposal Regarding the “Transfer of Library Operations from the City of South St. Paul to the Dakota County Libraries,” with the understanding that the Library Board would be involved in future discussions; and

WHEREAS, in said Proposal, the preferred site option for a remodeled/new library was the existing library site combined with the Lawshe Museum site if the Dakota County Historical Society discontinued its operations at Lawshe Museum; and

WHEREAS, the preferred site is now the City and Special School District #6 Property at 7th and Marie Aves. since the Dakota County Historical Society is not vacating the Lawshe Museum site; and

South St. Paul combined City Council and Library Board Meeting 10 May 2021 Outline

• Background of Programming Study • Study Focus • Study Process • Study Outcomes • Staff Recommendations • Request for Action • Questions Background

• City of South St. Paul (SSP) has run a library since the 1920’s • For decades the SSP Library has shared resources with Dakota County Library (DCL) • SSP suggested they could join DCL and offered: ➢ Option 1 - a new site at Marie and 7th Avenues ➢ Option 2 - redevelopment of the existing library site Study Focus

In late 2020, the DC Board authorized a Programming Study which would:

o Outline what could be built on the new site (Option 1) or the existing site (Option 2) given a County Project Budget limit of $6 million.

o Estimate the cost for upgrading the building and its systems to meet a “Net Zero” energy model. Study Process

• Selected Hagen Christensen & McIlwain’s (HCM) • Visited libraries and site in play • Design Team completed a full Facility Assessment • Visioning Workshop produced Goals • Met with Core Team including Facilities and City & County Library staff every other week • Produced Base Program Study Process Study Process

New spaces in Base Program, not in existing SSP library: • More collections space for Teens • Large Community Room at front entry • Secure vestibule with modern toilet rooms • Mix of smaller conference and meeting rooms • New public seating areas throughout the building • Quiet Reading Room & multifunction Program Space • Dedicated delivery and work rooms with book handler • Full sized mechanical, electrical and networking rooms Study Process

Existing SSP library spaces changed in Base Program: • Remove dedicated Book Sales area • Replace General Storage areas under the stairs • Reduce adult and children's collections with the addition of seating space.

• The largest library of all-new construction wound be built on Marie Ave on the City-owned parcel, because the School- owned parcel is burdened by the existing amphitheater and community pressures. • On the existing site, 65% of the construction budget is consumed by the restoration and remodeling of the existing 1927 building. So, very little is left for new construction. • A better alternative for the money spent on the existing site is a complete remodel of the 1927/1964 structure. Study Outcomes

A building is termed Net Zero when it produces all the energy the building consumes. To accomplish this the building must first consume relative little energy and contain equipment to produce energy. The existing site cannot practically meet Net Zero; the new site can at an addition cost of $1.1 million. Recommendations

• Remove School Site from further consideration

• If more funds are available, consider full Base Program being implemented at :

o New Site for $8.3 million (Option 1B) o Existing Site for $11.5 million (Option 2A) Recomendations

Base Program on City-Owned Site at 7th and Marie Avenues

$8.3 Million Recommendations

Base Program on Existing Library Site

If $6 million remains the project limit, consider:

o 11,700 gsf new structure on new SSP City-owned site OR o 11,840 gsf total renovated 1927 bldg & 1964 addition

Understand that neither of these provide the Base Program, nor a Program that is fully consistent with County & City Needs. Recommendations

Site driven considerations:

o New Site ▪ Centrally located, Adjacencies, off street Parking

o Existing Site ▪ Preserves 1927 building, no off street public parking Recommendations

If alternate funding is sought for this building to be considered a Net Zero facility:

The Project Budget must be increased by $1,100,000 And Net Zero can only be implemented on the new site Request for Action

City Council Agenda Date: May 17, 2021 10-G Department: Legal Prepared By: Pete Mikhail, City Attorney Administrator: JRH

Agenda Item: Declaration and Resolution Extending Local Emergency

Action to be considered:

Adopt Resolution 2021-80 DECLARATION AND RESOLUTION EXTENDING DECLARATION OF EMERGENCY.

Overview:

The current success in battling the pandemic has led the Governor to sunset many of the pandemic-related public health regulations. Among other things, beginning on May 28, the Executive Order “strongly encouraging” remote meetings for government bodies will be rescinded. It appears we may finally terminate the local emergency when the Governor’s regulations are lifted. Therefore, the proposed resolution extends the declaration of emergency until May 28.

In-person meetings will resume for all meetings governed by the Open Meeting Law. I note that under the Open Meeting Law, if you so choose, members of the public may continue to attend/participate remotely using the technology we have all become familiar with this past year.

Though we are optimistic that progress will continue uninterrupted, I note that the Mayor does retain the power to declare a local emergency should the pandemic become resurgent. Likewise, the Mayor, the City Administrator, and the City Attorney retain the statutory authority to determine that in-person meetings are not practical or prudent because of a health pandemic if circumstances warrant.

2. This extension of the Declaration of Emergency shall be given prompt and general publicity and be filed promptly by the City Clerk.

Declared this 17th day of May, 2021.
