ANOK4 COUNTYSHERIFF'S OFFICEMONTHLYREPORT
Commander Kevin Halweg from the Anoka County Sheriffs Office updated the City Council on law
enforcement activities within the City in August.
CONSIDER AN INTERIM USE PERMIT — SUBORDINATE CLASSROOMSTRUCTURES-
3037 BUN %ER LAKE BOULEVARD NW— MEADOW CREEK CHURCH
Mr. Carlberg explained Kinghom Construction, on behalf of Meadow Creek Church has requested
additional time for the existing subordinate classroom structures. The church would like to extend
the approval for these two structures an additional two years. The subordinate classroom structures
are currently being used for the Legacy Christian Academy. No changes to the existing buildings are
proposed.
Mr. Carlberg reviewed the staff report with the Council.
• Councilmember Bukkila stated as she was looking through the paperwork, the expiration date was
August 31, 2015 so she did not understand that if something were set to expire, in theory it should
have already been removed or at what point does an expiration date not expire. Mr. Carlberg stated
• Regular Andover City Council Meeting
Minutes — September 15, 2015
Page 3
there was an expiration date and it was acknowledged that has passed. It is their intent to ask for an
extension of time to allow the subordinate classroom structure versus removing it. They became
aware of this after the expiration date and are asking for an extension of time. He stated this has
happened in the past where an expiration date was missed and the City worked with the individual on
their plans.
Councilmember Holthus stated having been on Planning and Zoning Commission for a number of
years they have addressed this topic of portables quite often. They are supposed to be temporary and
she feels better that this request is for only two years but she would feel a lot better if she knew
exactly what the intention is and the timeline for the addition they want to put on the facility.
Mr. Grady Kinghom, Kinghom Construction, stated they actually started this awhile back and they
did not realize the deadline was August 2015. He stated when they originallybrought the portables
in, their plan was to add onto the church. The problem was in 2007 -2008, the economy fell and
school enrollment dropped as well and to add on they did not have the numbers to make it work. He
stated in January/February 2015 they started meeting to discuss the needs and expansion of the
church. He stated the school is growing and the next expansion will probably not be the last
expansion. He stated they are in the planning phase right now and think they can make that happen
• in the next year and a half or so
Mayor Trade asked if the portables are being used for the Legacy school and are they also used for
church on Sundays. Mr. Kinghom stated they are being used by Legacy for 5' and 61 graders daily.
Motion by Bukkila, Seconded by Knight, to approve the Interim Use Permit extension for a
subordinate classroom structure at 3037 Bunker Lake Boulevard NW, Meadow Creek Church.
Motion carried unanimously. (See Resolution R079 -15)
ACCEPT RESIGNATION /ALTERNATE FOR THE LOWER RUM RIVER WMO
Mr. Dickinson stated the City Council is requested to accept the resignation of Brace Perry as the
alternate representing Andover on the Lower Rum River WMO and consider appointing or
advertising for an alternate to serve as his replacement.
There was discussion regarding a replacement. Councilmember Holthus indicated she would be
interested but would need to check her availability. Councilmember Knight indicated he would
also be interested. It was discussed that the Council would like to appoint a Councilmember to
the Commission.
Motion by Knight, Seconded by Bukkila, to accept the resignation of Brace Perry. Motion
