Enclosures ~ 01 ANDOVER REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING - JUNE 4, 1985 MINUTES The Regular Bi-~10nthly Meeting of the Andover City Council was called to order by Mayor Jerry Windschitl on June 4, 1985, 7:35 p.m., at the Andover City Hall, 1685 Crosstown Boulevard NW, Andover, Minnesota. Councilmen present: Elling, Knight, Lachinski, Orttel Councilmen absent: None Also present: City Attorney, William G. Hawkins; City Engineer, James Schrantz; City Clerk/A. Administrator, P. K. Lindquist; and others RES !DENT FORUM Rosella Sonsteby - stated she now has water on the slab of her garage, and she cannot even go ln her garage. She has been there 44 years and never had water like this. She stated the water has to be coming from underneath. When Mr. Schrantz was out there, she said he was going to talk to the Council about pumping the water into the lake; but she never heard anything more. She has a crack in her siding 1/4 inch and she can see where it is sinking. She said something is going to have to be done about it. Walter Dick, 4260 144th Lane - is concerned with the same situation. The pond, WhlCh lS a Clty park, lS flooded. He is getting seepage into his basement because he has one of the deepest basements in the neighborhood. He is running a sump pump constantly to keep it dry. He called the City Engineer twice, but couldn't reach him; the Engineer never returned the call. There is a washout on 144th Lane because it is sugar-sand plus the flooding situation. There is another lot totally under water in the area. ElaineSchaff~'O 144th Lane - has the same problem Mr. Dick has. Her one lot is flooded. Leo 14450 Guarani Street - has tlTe same problem with water. Mr. Dick - explained some of the history of the development and how the problem is getting progressively worse because of it. The property from Johnson's development, Dehn's Addition, plus all property between them and 7th Avenue, in addition to what is being drained there from the east is contributing to this problem. Ms. Sonsteby - stated the City owns the park in Dehn's Addition, and that water is over on her property as well. Mr. Schrantz stated he asked the County to look at the drainage.'problem in that area to go both through the County ditch system when the road is built and through the Chutich pond. The County is in the design stage right now for the rerouting of Bunker Lake Boulevard. The concern with pumping that water to the lake is whether it would be effective because of .the amount of water and the fact that the lake is actually higher than this area. Pumping into the lake may not help because it may just come back. Mr. Dick - stated there is an overflow pipe about three feet above the ground on the south end of the lake. Mayor Windschitl stated th-e lake could take some water before it overflowed. He didn't know why the overflow was there. Ms. Sonsteby - stated that area was a hayfield at one time. One fall years and years ago they had a lot of rain. Because the haystacks were in the fields, they put a pipe to the lake to pump the water into Round Lake. She also felt once Northglen 5th Addition is completed, the problem will get worse, hoping Anoka County, the City of Anoka, and Andover can work something out. She stated her water is coming from the groundwater up because there is no way water enters into her pond. Regular City Council Meeting June 4, 1985 - Minutes Page 2 (Resident Forum, Continued) Council and engineers discussed possible solutio~such as waiting for the County report, plumping, or having a feasibility study done by a consulting engineering firm, and the problems of each. It was again noted other cities are having similiar water problems because of the high rainfall the past several years. It was agreed for the next Council meeting to see where the County is regarding the road design and if there is a feasibility of outletting the water to the Rum River. This item was also placed on the agenda. Jim Perry - asked to have the preliminary plat of Majestic Meadows rescinded. Councll noted the ordinance only allows one lot split every three years. The Clerk stated the lot split is on the Planning and Zoning Commission agenda for next week. Mr. Perry - stated he would be dividing the rest of the property by metes and bounds. Councll agreed to put the item on the agenda. Lorraine Tressel, 14267 Round Lake Boulevard - has lived there 19 years and a serious problem has arlsen ln their nelghborhood that they need help in resolving. It started last year when new neighbors moved in. Since then there has been an increase in noise, amplified music noise outside. It is heard most of the time on weekends, sometimes at nights; and it has certainly changed the living style of the rest of them. Two weeks ago it happened on a Sunday; and this last Sunday was one of the worst afternoons ever. The noise started around 3 o'clock and was so loud it blasted most of the neighbors out of their homes. It could be heard through closed doors and windows several blocks away. They called the police but nothing changed. The noise went down in volume slightly, but it continued until 10 o'clock. She noted the various tactics neighbors used to drown out the noise, some of them simply leaving their homes to escape the noise. She asked for the Council's help, feeling the City's ordinance describes what the citizens should have -- peace and quiet. Attorney Hawkins stated the enforcement of the ordinance calls for a judgement on the part of the Deputy. If they feel it is too loud, then they should affect arrests on those people. He thought it was a law enforcement problem. If it was as loud as Mrs. Tressel is saying, there should have been some warnings, and then some arrests made if the warnings didn't work. Mayor Windschitl stated the Deputy's log shows they were there at least twice, and a warning was given once. He felt the Deputies should meet with the Attorney so they understand what the Attorney feels he can enforce. He stated clearly these people shouldn't have to put up with that kind of noise. Councilman Elling stated he too could hear the noise while inside the Tressel's house with the doors and windows closed, two blocks away. He also estimated about 30 cars were parked along the street in that area. Art Tressel - stated they were selling tickets at that house for $5 apiece to 16, 17, and 18 year olds with all the liquor they wanted. And this has gone on before. He stated this is the loudest they have ever heard it. Phil Volk, 3527 142nd Lane - went to a neighbor who is extremely ill, and it was so loud lt was redlculous. He went home, called 911, and waited about half an hour. Nothing happened. He called again, and an officer called him but said there was nothing that could be done about it. He heard that if it was bothering the neighbor, she should have called; however, she is in bed and just can't be expected to call in. Council agreed the Attorney should meet with the Deputies about enforcing the city ordinance regarding this problem. Regular City Council Meeting June 4, 1985 - Minutes Page 3 (Resident Forum, Continued) John Hunt - stated the City put in a drainfield, and dirt was washed down both sides of the culvert on 159th Avenue. He has talked about this with the Engineer and is wondering what can be done about it. Mr. Schrantz stated this is one of the problems on his list that needs to be reviewed by the Council and will require some expenditure to solve. He stated he has quite a few water problems that has not been handled and he is getting repeat calls on. Mayor Windschitl asked to have this item put on the next agenda for consideration. AGENDA APPROVAL The following changes to the agenda were agreed to: Delete Item 4a, Special Use Permit - Mining/R. Benson; Add Items 4h, Rescind Majestic Meadows Preliminary Plat; 4i. Drainage/Dehn's Addition; and 4j, City of Andover Public Improvements Financing Policy/Amendment. MOTION by Knight, Seconded by Elling, to adopt the Agenda as noted. Motion carried unanlmously. FINAL PLAT - PRAIRIE MEADOWS/L. CARLSON Mr. Schrantz stated the driveway of Mr. Page will be cut back so it won't slope so much. He also noted the seeding is not done but felt that will be done by the developer and should be covered by the escrow. It was questioned why the cost of the signs were so high compared to Woodland Ridge. The Engineer was asked to recalculate those figures; and if there is an overcharge, it will be refunded. MOTION by Orttel, Seconded by Knight, that we direct the Clerk to prepare a Resolution approving the Final Plat of Prairie Meadows as presented with $4,400 park dedication fee and warranty escrow in the amount of $1,215; and authorize the Mayor and Clerk to sign the final plat. (See Resolution R055-85) Motion carried unanimously. FEASIBILITY STUDY - STACK ADDITION DRAINAGE Bob Schunicht of BRA reviewed the feasibility study for Project 85-13, drainage in the Russell-Stack Addition noting the three ponding areas involved, the water flow and direction, and three possible solutions, each one more permanent than the other. Alternate One would be a semipermanent solution and would provide an outlet from the largest pond to the Rum River. The water from the southern pond would have to be pumped out. Estimated cost is $30,400. Alternate Two calls for constructing a permanent ditch west of the area of Pond #2 just east of Argon Street and pipe the drainage from Argon out to the Rum River. Estimated cost is $46,000 plus $65,000 for the ditch. Alternate Three is the most permanent solution by installing drainage pipe from the three ponds to the ditch which ultimately goes to the Rum River. The costs do not reflect any land acquisition costs, assuming all easements will be donated. The area affected is 180 acres of which 30 acres is pond, for an assessable area of 150 acres. Mr. Schunicht stated pumping the water out of the area first to see if that would have any effect would be about $8,000, and it would have to be pumped for about two weeks. Mr. Schrantz stated the DNR was not concerned about this problem, stating it is a natural effect. They do not intend to do anything to ease the problem. Council suggested the area be pumped first to see how long that would last. And while the water is dOW8, repair the levy to see if that would permanently hold the water back. Mr. Schunicht felt it was worth a try but was not sure the repair of the dike would Regular City Council Meeting June 4, 1985 - Minutes Page 4 (Feasibility Study - Russell/Stack Addition Drainage, Continued) solve the problem. To provide any effective relief, any pumping should take the water off the three ponds by at least two feet. Council discussed the situation with the Engineers. It was noted the water naturally flows to the south and that the groundwater appears to be rising and is undermining the city street in one area. Council felt it would be extremely difficult to assess this project and show benefit. Because there are natural ditches in the field next to the river, it was asked whether those ditches would need to be cleaned or whether they would be sufficient to carry the water as is, thereby eliminating the expense of cleaning and/or enlarging them. Council also questioned how much the groundwater heat pump used by an individual is contributing to the problem. Mr. Schrantz didn't know if the pump is causing the problem or whether it is because of the high rainfall. Neil Powell, 16625 Argon - stated he has lived there nine years and that pond is usually completely dry. Pat Mann - stated three years ago he was able to walk his entire property. Most of the tlme there has been a little bit of water in the back. Now in places it is five feet deep, and it is one foot over the top of the septic tank. Mr. Powell - was concerned about areas outside the defined drainage area for this proJect that are under water. He stated he is #5, and he has water. Mr. Schrantz stated it was thought the road ditch took the water back the other way. It may be that other areas will be brought into the drainage area. Tom Krinke, 5131 166th Lane NW - didn't think the water could be held in Pond #1, statlng the water he recelved across his driveway came from underneath. Mr. Schunicht stated the $8,000 cost for pumping the area as a temporary solution includes temporary pipe run directly to the river. He estimated it would cost about $5,000 if pipe were run only to the ditch of the field instead. Council directed the Engineers to meet with the owner and renter of the field, Clyde Russell and Ed Fields, to determine if they would be willing to allow the City to use the ditch around the field for drainage purposes, acknowledging that the City would not have the right to flood that field. Then the water could be pumped down low enough to be able to put the levy back in. Mr. Schrantz didn't think it would cost much to repair the levy with City help. Council also agreed that some survey work should be done regarding the ditch along the field to more accurately determine how much water it would be able to handle in its present state. Mr. Schrantz felt the pumping costs could be reduced further if a more efficient, less expensive pump could be used. Council agreed to the Engineer checking into the feasibility of purchasing a pump for dewatering in the City. They also agreed the Engineer should proceed with getting the water out of the back yards as soon as possible. Mr. Krinke - felt once the water is over the hill and into the ditch, it wouldn't take much dltching to get it to the river. Council agreed if needed a special meeting could be called regarding this item next week. There was also some discussion on holding a public hearing on this project, but questioned just what areas are benefitted, how to show increased market value as a result of the project, and whether the project is feasible. No decision on scheduling a public hearing was made at this time, preferring to wait until it is known what Mr. Russell's position is to using his ditch and possibly the effects of pumping the area. The Engineer was directed to proceed with pumping the water if Mr. Russell gives permission to pump into his ditch. Regular City Council Meeting June 4, 1985 - Minutes Page 5 Recess at 9:10; reconvene at 9:20 p.m. SPECIAL USE PERMIT - NORTH AMERICAN TIRE Milton LaPanta - stated he is technically the sole owner of the operation at this tlme, and lntroduced Bob Sayers, his General Manager. Mr. Sayers - noted the three areas of change in the agreement with Anoka County. 1) Ihat the process area conform to the area the corporation is now going to lease, including roughly two acres to the east of the production building. The tires will be removed from that area. 2) The wording is changed to allow them to enter the wetlands for the purpose of removing the tires only. 3) To extend the hours of operation from 11:30 p.m. to midnight, Monday through Saturday. Mr. LaPanta - outlined a map of the area and explained the leasing agreements with Mr. Heldelberger and the reason the processing area is being doubled to include the primary tract. As the tires are removed from certain areas, the land reverts back to Mr. Heidelberger. The primary track is their only area for storage. It is also where the trailer sits. They will be taking over the trailer, except for a 40x100-foot strip of land in front that Mr. Heidelberger retains in his own possession. They will have control over the trailer except for that part retained by Mr. Heidelberger, the addition put onto the trailer. Mr. Heidelberger has a small office on that side of the trailer; and the first he was aware of the problem the City has with that addition was when he received a copy of the letter the Clerk sent to the Heidelbergers last week. Mayor Windschitl stated the recommendation has been to renew the special use permit with that addition to the trailer being removed. CeciJ~ Heidelberger - stated that addition isn't hurting anything. It came with the traller, was a part of the original trailer and has been on the trailer since October 3, 1984. The trailer was brought in two pieces. The original trailer was a rental one; this one was purchased. Mayor Windschitl asked Mr. LaPanta if he was going to use the trailer or build an office. Mr. LaPanta - stated they are going to try to make use of that trailer. He asked if lt lS permlssible that Mr. Heidelberger repair the original office that burned to be used as an office again. The Clerk stated nothing has been done for a period of three months on the little office building and the permit has expired. Mr. Heidelberger - stated he is working on the inside; and as soon as this goes through, the entire outside will be redone. The small building will be used for storage; and he will be using the addition of the trailer as an office. Council was concerned that they were not aware of the addition at the time the trailer was approved; however, after some discussion it was generally felt that because it is a temporary trailer, it could be allowed providing no further additions be added to the trailer. Mr. and Mrs. Heidelberger verbally agreed that no further extensions would be made to the trailer. Council generally agreed to the changes to the special use permit as outlined by Mr. Sayers. MOTION by Orttel, Seconded by Lachinski, introducing a Resolution approving the yearly renewal for a Special Use Permit for Milton LaPanta with the amendments to be the processing area will be expanded as shown on a map submitted with the Special Use Permit application and dated 6-4-85; the wetland area will be available for the removal of tires only; and the operating hours will be expanded from 6 a.m. to midnight, Monday through Saturday excepting holidays and Sundays. (See Amendment to R085-83) Motion carried unanimously. , Regular City Council Meeting June 4, 1985 - Minutes Page 6 MINING PERMIT/DRESEL TRUCKING Mr. Dresel stated he is the contractor for the rebuilding of County Road 20 between Highways g and 18. He has purchased some land off County Road 20 and is requesting a mining permit for sand fill to be used on that road, reviewing a contour map of the proposal. He stated the land, when finished, will be the same contour as much of the surrounding area. There is an excess of 15,000 yards of muck from the project that will be hauled back to this site for topsoil. He would like to go down to elevation 900. Mr. Schrantz stated he is recommending an elevation of 904. Council and Mr. Schrantz discussed several alternatives with Mr. Dresel of getting the amount of fill he needs but still meeting the Council's concern that the land be buildable once the mining is completed. Council suggested in some of the low areas to the rear that he be allowed to go below elevation 904, as long as there is enough area at 904 or above for building sites. And the deep borrow pits could be made into ponds when completed. Mr. Dresel felt he may be able to get some fill from a neighboring lot as well; but he felt he should be allowed to remove to the same elevation as Forest Lake Contracting was allowed to on a similiar project. Mr. Schrantz thought they were allowed to go down to 903. Council agreed that Mr. Dresel would be allowed to go below the 903 elevation in already unbuildable areas with the City Engineer's approval. MOTION by Orttel, Seconded by Knight, that we issue a mining permit to R. Dresel of Dresel Trucking for property identified as PIN No. R14 32 24 31 0001 and 14 32 24 34 0001 for an amount of approximately 65,000 yards; the main elevation upon completion of the mining on the properties that are at a buildable elevation now should be no less than 903 feet; and areas that are not buildable at this time may be excavated subject to the City Engineer's approval as work progresses. (See Resolution R056-85) DISCUSSION: Council felt the Engineer should have a written plan as to which areas will be at what elevations upon completion of the mining so there will be no mis- understanding on finished elevations for the area. Motion carried unanimously. RESCIND MAJESTIC MEADOWS PRELIMINARY PLAT MOTION by Orttel, Seconded by Elling, that we rescind the Preliminary Plat that was approved on Majestic Meadows. (See Resolution R057-85) Motion carried unanimously. ANDOVER VOLUNTEER FIRE DEPARTMENT REPORT Fire Chief Bob Palmer asked that the Attorney give an opinion on the Fair Labor Standards Action regarding the payment of City employees for volunteer fire service. Attorney Hawkins stated he has not yet had a chance to review the Act and determine how it will apply to the City. Council agreed to table discussion on the item until the Attorney has given an opinion. Chief Palmer asked the Council to meet with the Building Committee next Tuesday evening to discuss the plans for the new fire station and to get Council input. Council agreed to meet instead one-half hour earlier at its regular June 18 meeting to discuss this item. MOTION by Knight, Seconded by Lachinski, to start at 7 o'clock on the 18th. Motion carrled unanimously. PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT FINANCING POLICY/AMENDMENT The Clerk reported the provision in the financing policy that deals with mortgages has become a bookkeeping nightmare for the assessments, asking that that portion on Page 4 of the policy be deleted. Attorney Hawkins also advised that the City is Regular City Council Meç.ing June 4, 1985 - Minutes Page 7 (Public Improvement Financing Policy/Amendment, Continued) getting mortgage notes and transfers and it doesn't know where they are coming from. It has been a lot of added costs for the City. He recommended letting the owners sell the lots. The City will assess the lots for 15 years and only have the assessments paid when the Certificate of Occupancy is issued. The development contracts would be filed so there is notice that the assessments are to be paid when the Certificate of Occupancy is issued. MOTION by Orttel, Seconded by Lachinski, introducing an amendment to the City of Andover Public Improvement Financing Policy as follows: Under Part 2, Section A, City Financed Improvements, the following would be removed from the policy: "Developer may transfer lots within the development by contract for deed without the requirement that the outstanding assessments be paid in full. When any such transfer is made by contract for deed, however, the balance of the assessment shall be due and payable in full at the endeof three years following the levy thereof. In the event the developer conveys legal title to the parcel, the entire assessment shall be declared payable in full. In the alternative, the developer, at his opinion, may execute a promissory note secured by a first mortgage on the lot so transferred providing for payment of all outstanding assessments amortized over a period of fifteen years with the entire assessment plus accrued interest being payable on a date not greater than three years from the date of levy. Developer shall provide to the City, following recording of such mortgage, evidence in the form of an attorney's opinion and/or title insurance commitment indicating that the City has a valid first lien against the property as a result of the granting of such mortgage. The length of such promissory note and the interest rates thereon shall be determined by the City after review of the cost and terms of the financing for the project." VOTE ON MOTION: YES-Knight, Lachinski, Orttel, Windschitl; NO-Elling, wanting more information as to why that was placed in the policy to begin with. Motion carried. Attorney Hawkins also noted a clarification should be made in the policy to indicate that we will pay accrued interest on the escrow deposit. Also, now that the City is assessing the connection charges, he felt a clarification should be made that the 15 percent escrow is based only on the costs of putting in the internal improvements, not for the assessed area and connection charges. MOTION by Orttel, Seconded by Elling, that amendments to the Public Improvements Flnancing Policy be made to include the fact that we will pay interest on escrow deposits and to note that when 15 percent escrow deposit is calculated, it will only be required on internal improvements involved with the plat. Motion carried unanimously. DRAINAGE IN DEHN'S ADDITION AREA Attorney Hawkins advised the Council of the lawsuit being brought against the City by Rosella Sonsteby regarding the drainage in this area. Council briefly reviewed the problem, questioning why it is occurring and what can be done about it. Mr. Schrantz suggested the City of Andover join with the City of Anoka, who has already asked that the County have an independent engineering firm study the drainage for the area. MOTION by Orttel, Seconded by Knight, that the City of Andover join with the City of Anoka in encouraging Anoka County to do a water study report for the southwest corner of the City of Andover water problem. DISCUSSION: Some on the Council were not sure what this would accomplish, but it was generally felt this may help to get the county to look into the problem that is common to both cities and to look at what impact the rerouting of the county road could have in that area. Motion carried unanimously. Regular City Council Meeting June 4, 1985 - Minutes Page 8 MOTION by Knight, Seconded by Lachinski, to close this portion of the meeting. Motlon carried unanimously. 10:46 p.m. The Council, Engineer, and Attorney, then discussed the litigation by Ms. Sonsteby against the City regarding drainagßèin the southwest area of the City. MOTION by Knight, Seconded by Lachinski, to reopen the meeting. Motion carried unanlmously. 10:53 p.m. ENGINEER'S REPORT Mr. Schrantz noted the items the Council didn't address at the special meeting last month. He stated most of the items need Council attention and will require expenditures to solve, and he is getting repeat calls from residents on these complaints. MOTION by Orttel, Seconded by Knight, that we meet at the Andover City Hall at 6:30 p.m. on 6/5/85 to handle engineering items and other staff items, with the meeting to expire no later than 9 o'clock. VOTE Q~ MOTION: YES-Knight, Lachinski, Orttel, Windschitl; PRESENT-Elling as he will not be able to attend. Motion carried.
