Chairperson of the Crooked Lake Parent Advlsorv CounciJ - reviewed the diagram of the proposed playground layout at Crooked Lake School. They are asking that the City contribute $14,000 for upgrading the playground and enter Into a Joint powers agreement with the School District and their Parent Advisory Council for that proJect. The School District and the Parent Advisory Council have aJready committed $14,000 each. Frank Stone. Public Works Supervisor - stated they met with the School District and the Advisory Council regarding the City's concerns about completing the ball fields and making the hockey rink a priority. Ms. Judd - stated the Advisory Council Is willing to raise funds to do whatever Is necessary to upgrade the hockey rInk. The SchooJ District has scheduled to put In the ball fields In July. -. Regular City Council Meeting Minutes - June 6. 1989 Page 2 (Crooked Lake PJayground Equipment Request, Continued) Wa II v Johnson. Crooked Lake Prlnclpal - explained when the property around the school developed, It was discovered the bal I flelds were 100 teet over the property line. But there were no funds In the budget to upgrade the bal I dIamonds this past year. Approxlmately $3.000 has been budgeted for 1989. and he Is confident work wi I I begin on thebal] diamonds some time during the week of July 4. Mr. Johnson stated he also asked that the fields be maintained frequently to keep them In good condition. Also, they hope to raise funds to complete the hockey rink In the near future. He welcomes a working agreement wi th the City to upgrade the playground so it can be used for community and school purposes. Dick Nvbeck. Anoka-Hennepln School DistrIct - reviewed some of the other Joint powers agreements entered Into with other cities to provide playgrounds and ball fields. The School District has already agreed to this proposal where each of the three parties would contribute 33 1/3 percent of the costs. The entire cost Is about $42,000. and It Is hoped to be done this year. Ms. Judd - noted the first phase of the proJect would cost abou t $26.000, and they wi] I provide a breakdown of costs, labor, etc. They will go out for bids to be sure the prices are competitIve. Counc 11 discussion noted the City does not have the funding In the bUdget for 1989, though there was a general consensus to participate In the project. Councllmember Jacobson asked If the fIrst phase ot the project could be done this year wIth the funding from the School District and the Advisory Councl]. wIth the second phase done In 1990 using the City's contribution. That way the City could Include the item Into the 1990 budget. Ms. Judd. Mr. Johnson. and Mr. Nybeck a] I felt that would be agreeable. Counc I I raised the question as to what the City wou]d do If School District 15 asked for the same type of contribution. Marc McMu I I en. Park Board Chairman. stated the Park Board discussed that Issue. It probably would not happen with District 15 because they do not have any schools withIn the City Ilml ts; however, It is conceivab]e the City would have a slmlllar request for the Andover Schoo]. The thinking was the City Hal I Complex Is close enough to the Andover Schoo] where such a program may not be needed; whereas. there are no other park facilities next to the Crooked Lake School other than the boat landing. But this Joint venture would make It easier for the CI ty and athletic associations to use the fields. which the Park Board teels Is Important. Regular City Council Meeting Minutes - June 6. 1989 Page 3 (Crooked Lake Playground Equipment Request. Continued) Me. Johnson noted the fields could be scheduled for use after school and In the summer. He saw a new relationship In the use of the facilities with the signing of the Joint powers agreement. There was a brief discussion on whether Meadowcreek Church would be Interested In participating In the program If the playground was enlarged. Several problems were raised as to possible time conflIcts in the use of the playground. though It was felt that the matter Is worth pursuing. Councllmember Jacobson stated he would ask the Meadowcreek Board If there Is any Interest. Me. Nvbeck - thought the maintenance costs would be divided three ways as set out in the Joint powers agreement. though he fe]t that Is a negotiable Item. Mr. Johnson - stated the grounds crew would be responsible for maintaining the Crooked Lake equIpment. so the City Staff would not be Involved. Counc II generally felt the City shou]d not be Involved In the costs of maintenance. Attorney HawkIns saw no problem with the Joint powers agreement except that legall y It can only be between two governmental units. The Advisory Council cannot be Included In the actual agreement. Me. Nvbeck - saw no problem with the Joint powers agreement stating the school district would pay for two-thirds and the City one-third. MOTION by Perry. Seconded by Knight. that the Andover City Council enter Into a JoInt powers agreement with School District 11 for the Improvement of the Crooked Lake Elementary School park with the understanding that Phase 1 would be done In the year 1989; and tha t Phase 2 would be done In the year of 1990. and at that time the CI ty of Andover would budget for $14.000 of the 1990 Capital Budget; and authorize the Mayor and Clerk to sign the Joint powers agreement. Motion carried unanimously. NORTH LEXINGTON LANDSCAPING SPECIAL USE PERMIT Chairperson Pease reviewed the Planning Commission's recommendation to approve the speclal use perml t to mine soil to form a wlldJlfe pond by North Lexington Landscaping. TheIr concern was the proximity to the gas plpJine easement, recommending that permIts be sought from the DNR and Army Corps of Engineers and a letter from Koch Pipe as to who wouJd be liable should any spl]1 or damage occur as a result of the issuance of this permit. Me. Blake stated the City has not yet received a letter from Koch Pipeline. Mr. Kuiken. North LexlnQton LandscaplnQ - was told Koch Plpe]lne was going to call the City. He didn't know If they had. Regular City Council Meeting MInutes - June 6. 1989 Page 4 (North Lexington Landscaping Special Use Permit, Continued) Me. Blake stated the City wants additional assurance that there would be no detrimental effect In the area of the pipe as a result of the City issuing this permit. as the pond does get very close to the easement. The City has written to Koch Pipeline asking for that assurance but has not yet heard anything. Me. Kuiken - stated he tried to get a letter from them but they won't give one because the digging Is not on the easement. The digging on the end of the pond next to the easement Is already done; he Just has to haul the dIrt away. He will not be doing any more digging next to the pipeline. only on the other side of the pond. MOTION by Knight, Seconded by Jacobson. Introducing the Reso]utlon as provided (See Resolution R098-89. approving a Special Use Perml t requested by North Lexington Landscaping to mine soil from the property described as that part of the SW 1/4 of the SW 1/4 of Section 11 32 24 as required per Ordinance 8. Section 4.24) DISCUSSION: Counc I I agreed to allow Mr. Kuiken to haul the dirt away but not to do any more digging until the City receives the letter addressing their concerns from Koch Pipeline. Motion carried unanimously. WENDT SPECIAL USE PERMIT Chairperson Pease reviewed the Planning Commission's recommendation to approve the Special Use Permit requested by Harold and Irene Wendt to construct an accessory structure prior to the construction of a principal structure on property located at approximately 166th and Verdin Street. They have been asked by the City to clean up their property, and they want to construct the pole building to put the I terns In. They do not have any plans for building a house there. Pole buildings are common In the area. It Is vacant land and would not have a negative Impact on the traffic. Harold Wendt - stated It is not a horse pasture at this time, though It was at one time. There are two empty semis which he put there 15 years ago and had been using for storage of tiles for his business. He stated he Is now cutting them up. He got a letter from the City of Andover asking hIm to clean up his property. so he wants to put up the building to store everylng In. Councllmember Jacobson was reluctant to grant such a permit with no plans to construct the principal structure. thinking that has not been done in the past. Other Councllmembers noted It has been al lowed and the ordinance does not mention that plans are needed for the principal structure for the perml t to be granted. Councllmember Perry was concerned about the maIntenance of a single accessory building when no one Is living on the property, not wan t i ng to create an unsightly parcel. There Is also the Issue of vandalism. Regular City Council Meet! n9 Minutes - June 6. 1989 Page 5 (Wendt Special Use Permit, Continued) Me. Blake stated the placement of the structure allows for future subdivision of the parce 1 . noting the plans before the Council show how subdivision could occur In the future. Mr. Wendt - stated his son I I ves on Parce I A and would be watching the building. MOTION by Knight. Seconded by Orttel, to approve the request as presented. (See Resolution R099-89 approving the Special Use Permit request of Harold and Irene Wendt) DISCUSSION: Councllmember Octtel didn't think there would be a maintenance or vandaJism problem with their son living next to It. as I twill appear to be a part of that residence. He also thought similar requests were granted and the principal structures were never built even though there were plans to do so. VOTE ON MOTION: YES-EJ ling, Knight. Orttel; NO-Jacobson, Perry Motion carried. CAMPBELL COMPANIES SPECIAL USE PERMIT Me. Blake reviewed the SpeclaJ Use Permit application of Campbel Is Companies for a permanent monument sign located at the Junction of Bittersweet Street and Bunker Lake Boulevard at the Bent Creek Estates development. He was surprised to see that the sign Is already up, as It was put I n after It was approved by the P & z. The one other Item that needs to be addressed Is the maintenance agreement. The property owner of that lot must know that the sign Is on his Jot and that he Is required to maintain It. Me. Campbe I I has stated he wouJd contact the purchaser of that Jot to sign an agreement. Me. Blake changed his recommendation. urging the Council to table the Item or grant It contingent upon the City receiving that maintenance agreement. The Counc I I was generalJy annoyed with having to act on the request after the fact and discussed courses of action when I terns are acted upon afterwards. Attorney Hawkins advised the possibility of doubling the fees or Imposing a minimum of $150 or $200 fine In such Instances to reimburse the extra staff time for Inspections and ordinance enforcement. No action was taken regarding this Issue. MOTION by OrtteJ. Seconded by Jacobson, a Resolution approving the Special Use Permit request of Campbel I Companies, Inc.. to allow the placement of a permanent monument sign In Bent Creek Estates on property described as Lot 1 . Block 1 Bent Creek Estates, Anoka County. Minnesota, wi th the fol lowing provision: that documentation be obtained showing that the lot purchaser Is wiJllng to accept the maintenance of the sign. (See Resolution R100-89) Motion carried on a 4-Yes, I-No (Knight) vote. Regular City Council Meeting Minutes - June 6. 1989 Page 6 OLESEN ADDITION FINAL PLAT Councllmember Jacobson was concerned about Item 3 in the Staff's recommendation regarding the escrow for uncompleted grading. Given the recent problems In Creekrldge where the final grading may not have been correctly done, he wondered what could be done to protect the City and to assure that the grading does meet the specifications. There was some Council discussion on the procedure used In all plats, not! ng that the only problem there has been Is In Creekrldge and that It would be costly to have the City survey the final grading for conformance. Some Councllmembers still fe It there should be some method by which recourse could be taken against the developer or engineer if the grading specifications are not fol lowed. Suggestions were to have each lot surveyed prior to the issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy or to hold the escrow for two to three years unt II the plat Is developed out. Counc II noted there has been a question on the drainage on Lot 3. Mr. Olesen - stated Mr. Haas told him the drainage plan Is correct. He stated he hasn't done any grading yet. He understood Mr. Haas had said the final grading plan hadn't been approved yet. He's been waiting for those final plans. Councllmember Orttel stated typically the grading Is done when the final plat Is approved. That also eliminates the need for escrowing for the work. Me. Olesen - stated he was going to grade the three lots and rough grade the entire 20 acres, Including the cui de sac. When the three lots sold. he planned to do the second phase and put In the blacktop. Rather than changing the process for all plats, Councllmember Orttel recommended the City pay particular attention to the grading In this plat because of the questions raised about the drainage on Lot 3. MOTION by Perry, Seconded by Orttel. to request on the 01 esen Addl t!on Final that the CI ty at the time the grading Is completed, that the City Engineer go out and verify the grading, and that the Planning Commission be asked to look at the process that is currently standard In the City and make a recommendation to the Council for either continuing that standard process or recommendations for changes to It. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Olesen - didn't realize the grading could be done before the final plat was approved. expressing annoyance at wasting the last 60 days. He stated he preferred to do the grading prior to final plat approval and avoid having to escrow for grading. Counc II agreed to table the Item until the grading Is completed. MOTION by Jacobson, Seconded by Perry, that we table this until the grading Is completed. Motion carried unanimously. Regular City Council Meetl ng Minutes - June 6. 1989 Page 7 VARIANCE/RAINTREE REALTY Chairperson Pease reviewed the request of Ralntree Realty for a variance to allow the construction of a single family home situated greater than 45 degrees from the front lot line at 16451 Makah Street. Because the original approved plans we~e not followed by the bullde~. the Planning Commission recommended denial of the variance and to prosecute under the Building Codes criminal proceedings. The house would then become a nonconforming structure which would not have to be moved. Ron Sml th. Ralntree Realtv - applied for the building permit, then realized the house was facing the tu~key farm. So they changed the way It faced. and he didn't get back to City Hall to have the Building Off Iclal Inspect and approve It. After the house was substantlal]y up. he was told he was In violation of the ordinance. Mr. Sml th apologized for the error, not realizing It was an ordinance violation. It Is on a five-acre corner lot. Dave Almgren, Bui Idlng Official, believes the structure Is further back off the road than shown on the map. Attorney Hawkins understood what the Planning Commission was trying to do, but didn't think prosecuting Mr. Smith will solve the problem. In this instance, it is conceivable that an argument for undue hardship would be the turkey farm across the road. which was not created by the landowners. He would rather see the Council consider the variance under the criteria, thinking there Is some latitude here. Perhaps Mr. Sml th shou I d be required to pay for the administrative time the City has put In because of the error. If the variance Is granted. he cou I d stll I prosecute for Intentlona]ly changing approved plans. Councllmember Knight stated no matter which way the house Is faced, I t wi I I view a lot of the farm activities. He didn't know what harm Is Involved. Councllmember Perry was concerned about leaving the house as a nonconforming structure, because that penalizes any purchaser as he may not be able to get financing and wi 11 not be able to expand on that use at any time. She didn't see that anything was gained financially by changing the plans. Councllmember Orttel didn't think the variance was as much of a concern as the Intentional changing of an approved plan. He saw no reason to burden a future owner with a nonconforming use. Councilmember Jacobson disagreed, stating the act was Intentionally done and It does not meet the criteria for granting a variance. Discussion continued on how and when the error was noticed. about what has been done In the past. about the fear of setting a precedent, and on what to do to discourage builders from changing approved plans In the future. Regular City Council Meet! ng Minutes - June 6, 1989 Page 8 (Varlance/Raintree Realty. Continued) MOTION by Orttel. Seconded by Knight. that a variance be granted to the frontage of the property located at 16451 Makah Street to al low location of the house more than 40 degrees off from the Makah Street frontage, and that due to the fact that this has been received after the location of the structure was situated, the City will require that all I ts costs Involved in the Investigation and processing of the variance will be passed to the property owner -- at our costs Including our overhead. (See Resolution Rl01-89) DISCUSSION: Councilmember Jacobson felt this sets a precedent and that the City's ordinances wi I I continue to be I aughed at. Councllmember Perry agreed with the Planning Commission's Justifications for a variance, other than the turkey farm. Motion carried on a 4-Yes, i-No (Jacobson) vote. KIRBY ESTATES PONDING DISCUSSION Me. Schrantz explained the pond In Kirby Estates Is part of the regional ponding system, reviewing the overall storm drainage plan approved by Coon Rapids and Andover. If this area was not being platted, the City would have to get the land for this pond. Mr. and Mrs. Olson disagree with the City's previous action to take ai I the land as part of the plat. Me. Schrantz stated another Issue Is the Engineer from Coon Rapids has Indicated a desire to move a pond south of 133rd north Into Andover on Mr. Smith's property. Me. Schrantz stated the City did not pay for the regional pondlng on Colony Estates but other ponds In a regional pond area, such as Red Oaks. have been purchased. Coon Rapids pays about $10.000 an acre for high land, $3,000 an acre for lowland, and $l,OOO/acre for wetland when acquiring property. Using that formula. they avoid the expense of hiring appraisers. After a brief discussion, Counc I 1 asked that the amount of area needed for the regional pond and the amount needed for the Kirby Estates plat be calculated, and the City would pay for the difference in area needed over and above the needs of the plat itself. Jack McKelvev - stated Coon Rapids took 1.1 acres of land on 131st for pondlng. He received $4.000 for the land and then was assessed for storm sewer for $3,900. He recommended checking with Coon Rapids to see how much they are paying for land for pondlng since they too are acquiring land In that area. Me. Schrantz stated Andover wll I be assessed using Coon Rapids' policy, suggesting Andover also acquire Its ponds using their policy. Counc II agreed to check with Coon Rapids and to negotiate with the property owners. Regular City Council Meetl ng Minutes - June 6, 1989 Page 9 (Kirby Estates Pondlng Discussion. Continued) MOTION by Jacobson. Seconded by Perry. that we direct the Attorney and,'or City Engineer to check the parcel In question that we have been discussing and to come up with a dollar figure which would be the difference between the actual acreage taken for the normal drainage from the plat versus the amount of drainage contained In the large regional pondlng scheme and to come up with an offer and use that as a basis for discussion with the property owners. Motion carried unanimously. Counc II discussed the pond along 133rd that Is now In Coon Rapids. Mr. Schrantz stated Andover needs to hold a hearing to assess for storm drainage north of 133rd between Hanson and Jay Street. He noted the costs for the proJect given by Coon Rapids Is almost twice as much as originally estimated. Ken Gust - stated he working on the Coon Rapids side and didn't know why they would put 133rd through the low part when so much ponding Is needed, especial 1 y wi th the street being so wide. He thought maybe the 100-year flood elevation wll I need to be adJusted, noting the results of borings done by Coon Rapids. Given the large expense Involved In the storm drainage system, he thought other alternatives should be looked at such as adding more bounce to the ponds for additional storage rather than adding extra acreage. No Counc II action was taken on the matter. DUERR PROPERTY DISCUSSION Mr. Blake raised the Issue for discussion of the blue home in the Red Oaks Manor 6th Addition development. Since the memo was written to the Counc II , Kenko. Inc. , has agreed to buy the house. Dave Almgren. Building Official, understands Kenko now plans to remove the house from the property. Me. Blake stated If the house Is moved, the grading plan wi J I need to be readdressed. Counc I J supported the Staff's position to have the house removed from the property, though It was recognized that cannot be required. MOBILE HOME PERMIT/HUPP MOTION by Orttel, Seconded by Knight. that we approve a temporary mobile home permit for William Hupp, 1650 Andover Boulevard NW, subJect to It being connected to private utilities for a period of 90 days.

Schrantz reviewed the proJect of watermain, sanitary sewer. storm drain and streets for 133rd Avenue and Jay Street area. The cost for storm sewer. the proJect done by Coon Rapids, Is about $35.000 more than they had estimated. Those numbers affect everyone In the benefitted area west of Jay Street. The area to the east of Jay Street will need to have a pub]lc hearing. Plus 133rd Avenue will be assessed because Good Va]ue Homes and Stanton both petitioned for It. Counc II expressed concern over the cost Increase In the storm sewer proJect. Mr. Schrantz noted that was covered In the agreement signed with Coon Rapids. The project was done over a year ago. and the costs were given to the City after It was completed. Andover Is paying Interest on the money that has been paid by Coon Rapids to front the proJect.
