PLEDGE OFALLEGLANCE
SPECIAL PRESENTATION — FIT CITYA WARD
Minnesota Labor & Industry Commissioner Steve Sviggwn made a presentation to the City
Council and presented Mayor Gamache with the Fit City Award.
RESIDENT FORUM
Mr. Blake Gust, 2291149"' Avenue, stated he previously sent the Council a letter regarding an issue
by his house. He stated he was at the meeting to talk about street safety by the High School in the
Woodland Estates residential development. He explained he is proposing putting a stop sign in at
the 149 Avenue and Raven Street intersection because the trail is not designated as a walking path.
He stated with so many vehicles driving to work and through the neighborhood he wanted to raise
awareness of this issue. He aslced the Council to take a proactive approach rather than a reactive
approach before another child gets hurt.
Mayor Gamache stated they have looked into the possibility of a four way stop sign but they deal
with State laws as well as City laws and this site does not meet the warrant requirements but he
stated they have never looked at a crosswalk at that intersection and that may be something they
could look into.
Mr. Gust stated he would like to see some sort of sign or awareness of a pedestrian crossing.

Minutes — December 15, 2009

Mr. Berkowitz stated there are not any pedestrian signs posted along there but was not sure if there is
a bike path sign posted there or not. He stated they have worked with the property owner on the
northeast corner and they have cut the pine trees back. Mr. Berkowitz indicated they can look into
this to see what else could be done.
Councilmember Trude stated when the high school first went in they wanted the street to be closed
and take back the street easements, put in sod and narrow it down but the neighbors around there
objected. They lilted that area for parking and for the kids to practice biking and access to their lot
sides and backyards. She thought the next step would be to have a neighborhood meeting and have a
pedestrian and bike safety discussion because there is really nothing to draw traffic off of Crosstown
except the residential homes.
Mr. Gust stated this is a residential neighborhood and there are others besides the people who live
there that utilize this roadway. He stated without a sign of some sort it leaves a gray area as to who
is responsible. Councilmember Trude thought there were joint responsibilities because generally
when they look at signage, they look at traffic counts. The counts in this area are lower than other
areas where kids are walking to school. She stated there are issues to where they put crosswalks and
the rules do not allow them to put stripes down because they think it would improve child safety.
She stated it comes down to State guidelines on how to sign things.
Mr. Berkowitz reviewed the process the City follows to meet the State traffic guidelines.
Councilmember Jacobson thought they should be looking at what signs they can put there legally that
may help the situation.

activities occurring within Andover.
CALL FOR THE SALE OF BONDS
Mr. Dickinson introduced Mr. Mark Ruff, Ehlers & Associates who made a presentation to the
Council regarding the sale of bonds.
Councilmember Jacobson stated he is confused because if they need the money by the end of the year
why are they issuing the bonds in February 2010. Mr. Dickinson stated they will cash flow the
purchase internally and will need the bond proceeds in February to reimburse the operations funds.
Mr. Dickinson indicated various transfers would facilitate the cash flow.

at the Planning Commission meeting someone did show up after the item was approved to speak
against this but he did not have any other information as far as a name or anything.
Pastor Mark Hellmann, representing Grace Lutheran Church was at the meeting and was
available for questions.
Motion by Jacobson, Seconded by Knight, to approve the resolution as presented. Motion
carried unanimously. (See Resolution R106 -09)

Mr. Neumeister stated staff discussed this with the City Council at a workshop on October 27, 2009

and Council indicated they would like the hunting areas map and City Code to be consistent between
the map and text and easier to interpret.
Councilmember Jacobson stated on the bottom of page 3, under D, the way he read it if he had more
than 40 acres he still could not hunt unless he talked to the neighbors and had fifty percent agree to
allowing this. Mr. Neumeister stated that is correct. Councilmember Jacobson asked if they still
wanted consent of the surrounding property owners. Councilmember Trude remembered discussing
this before and the concern was some of the homeowners that butted up against neighborhoods.
Councilmember Jacobson asked if this is still reasonable to have this.
Mayor Gamache stated if someone owns forty acres they are not going to hunt next to an area that
has homes adjacent to it.
The Council discussed the regulation regarding approval to hunt on forty acres in area one.
Councilmember Trude thought they should hold this over and have a workshop to discuss this
fiuther. Mr. Dickinson indicated a public hearing was advertised.
Motion by Jacobson, Seconded by Knight, to open the public hearing. Motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Tony Howard, 2119 156' Avenue, stated he is an avid bow hunter and his concern is not the
areas outlined but his concern is regarding shotguns. He thought there should be a workshop to
address it. He stated his concern is north of County Road 20. He explained the problems he has
encountered on his brothers land while bow hunting. He thought there are areas where slug hunting
- should be allowed hnwever ten acres is not enoug4h -_
Councilmember Flight stated Andover has a lot of open fields and nothing to contain the slug so it
could travel a long way. Mr. Howard agreed and said even if the slug hits something it may travel in
a different direction.
Motion by Jacobson, Seconded by Knight, to hold the public hearing open until the second meeting
in March 2010. Motion carried unanimously.
CONSIDER CITY CODEAMDNEMF,NTIADDING SECTION 943 & AMENDING SECTIONS
OF TITLE 121WIND TURBINES
Mr. Neumeister stated City Code does not currently regulate wind turbines and the City has
received a few inquiries from residents wanting to erect small residential/non- commercial wind
turbines within residential districts.. The City Council has previously discussed this item and
suggested moving forward by obtaining feedback from the Planning and Zoning Commission
through a code amendment similar to that of the City of Oakdale's City Code on wind turbines.
Mr. Neumeister made a correction to page six regarding the non- commercial WECS (Wind
Regular Andover City Council Meeting
Minutes — December 15, 2009
Page 6
Energy Conversion Systems).
Councilmember Knight stated on page six, regarding the commercial WECS, he wondered how
long the blade length was. Councilmember Jacobson stated they vary for commercial.
Councilmember Knight asked at what size it exceeds the noise ordinance. Councilmember
Jacobson stated it depends on the size and design of the turbine.
Councilmember Jacobson stated his opinion is a lot of the small turbines really do not do any
good but people like to put them up to feel good. He stated if they are going to have an
ordinance he would like to make it the best they can.
Councilmember Jacobson stated towards the bottom of page five, definition of windmill is not
quite accurate and should be adjusted. He stated on page six under 9 -13 -3, permit requirements,
the second to last line, the word "altered" should be removed.
Councilmember Jacobson stated down towards #2 under building permit, the problem with this
ordinance is it does not differentiate very well between the large commercial units and the small
residential owned units placed in yards and did not think they should be required to purchase
$500,000 in insurance, that is fine for commercial but extravagant for the residential. Mr.
Dickinson stated the small windmill would be exempted. Mr. Neumeister stated anything under
thirty-five feet is exempt and the code reflected this. Councilmember Trude thought they should
lower the amount to $300,000 since that is typical in a homeowner's policy. Mr. Dickinson
thought with a commercial unit a higher amount of insurance should be required because with
larger units more problems can occur. Mr. Dickinson suggested they have $300,000 for
residential and $500,000 for commercial turbines.
Mayor Gamache wondered if they should separate the paragraph into two to distinguish between
small and large turbines.
Councilmember Jacobson stated towards the bottom of page nine, 13 -4, it talks about
exemptions and this exempts windmills, a windmill is not a WECS, he thought the definition is
different so if they are excluding an exception for a windmill they have not made any exception
for a larger home residential WECS so they need to change that. He stated he would remove the
last line, A and B.
Councilmember Jacobson stated on page 7, under General Standards, item 2, WECS Prohibited
they are talking about not being in the Scenic River Way which is reasonable or WDE which is
also reasonable but he wondered about City Parks. Councilmember Trude thought they should
not prohibit them on the WDE site because in the future they may be allowed to put them there.
She also thought they should leave this open and take them on a case by case basis through a
CUP process.
Councilmember Trude thought this should be rewritten.

Minutes — December 15, 2009

Councilmember Jacobson wondered why a WECS needed to be less than ten kilowatts output.
Councilmember Trude thought they needed to regulate the size of blades. Mr. Neumeister stated
he would find out why ten kilowatts was included but indicated this is from the Oakdale
example.
Councilmember Jacobson stated another concern is the height of the unit from the top of the
structure. Mr. Dickinson explained the reason for the height restriction. Councilmember
Jacobson stated with all the restrictions listed it is going to be almost impossible for someone to
put a WECS up. Councilmember Trude agreed. Mayor Gamache thought the roof mounted units
will be the ones restricted the most.
The Council discussed further changes to roof mounted units.
Councilmember Trude thought this is all very complicated and did not know what happened to
the Oakdale model. Mr. Dickinson stated the Oakdale model is all there, what was added were
definitions for commercial and non - commercial.
Mayor Gamache asked if it would make sense to have an ordinance for commercial and another
one for non - commercial units. Mr. Neumeister thought they were trying to use the direction from
the Council to create one ordinance that works for both but if they want to have two ordinances
they can do that also.
The Council continued to discuss the regulations with staff.
Co Jacobson stated he did not understand wh is meant on page eight regarding the
generating power for use. Mr. Dickinson stated these units cannot be their own utility and the
energy generated must be purchased by the local utility company.
Mayor Gamache thought they needed to look at these as two separate regulations, commercial
and non - commercial.
Mr. Dickinson stated the Planning Commission wanted to restrict these to 2.5 acres or more to
keep them out of high residential areas. Councilmember Jacobson thought the real issue is how
it looks-to others.
Mr. Dickinson stated staff can rework this to look at commercial and residential separately.
Councilmember Jacobson stated he wanted to make sure what they have works and what they
currently have before them does not work and he also agreed with the Mayor that they need to
split this up. Councilmember Trude thought this needs to be organized better.
City Attorney Baumgartner stated while looking at this he thought there were a lot of provisions
that apply to both and instead of having two separate ordinances they could put provisions in
there that apply to both and have separate sections for commercial and residential which would
Regular Andover City Council Meeting
Minutes — December 15, 2009
Page 8
identify the criteria that applies to that particular area. He thought that would make it more user
friendly and would not be difficult to do.
Mr. Dickinson asked if they wanted to not allow the commercial units in particular locations in
the City. Mayor Gamache is not sure but did not want to remove the possibility at this time.
Mr. Dickinson asked if there are any specific spots in the City commercial or residential units
should not be allowed at all.
The Council discussed some areas they may not want the units placed.
Councilmember Jacobson stated if they wanted to continue this at a workshop he could have
someone come in who knows about this and discuss it with the Council.
Mr. Dickinson indicated this would be brought to the February 2010 workshop.
CONSIDER AUTHORIZING 2010 CDBG APPLICATION
Mr. Neumeister stated at the December 1, 2009 meeting, staff suggested an additional $50,000 be
sought for the city's housing rehabilitation program or some type of other assistance to deal with
foreclosures. Mr. Neumeister indicated that the County stated those types of programs wound not be
funded. Staff's next idea is they could try to apply for funding to run a water line down 138
Avenue and see if they could get some money to assist the project.
Councilmember Tr, rlr e. thou hg t that' should try to go for some of the costs of the street
reconstruction if they are going to try to get funding to run water down 138 Avenue.
Staff discussed with the Council the reason why they thought the Council should apply for this.
It was noted most of the people along there are likely low or moderate income, which is a
requirement for a grant.
Councilmember Bulddla did not want to end up having to assess these people for reconstruction
of the road. Mr. Berkowitz stated they would get at least partial funding for the road if they
received the grant.
The Council thought staff should apply for the grant and see if they get it. Mr. Dickinson
indicated staff would come back with a formal resolution of support for the Council to approve at
the January 5 meeting.
CONSIDER RESOLUTION OF SUPPORT FOR HIGH SPEED BROADCASTING
BROADBAND CONNECTIVITY
Mr. Dickinson stated Anoka County started a project last spring that is focused on increasing the
availability of high speed broadband and fiber -optic connectivity in the County. The project is called
Regular Andover City Council Meeting
Minutes — December 15, 2009
Page 9
"The Connect Anoka County Project ". The most recent information related to the project is on the
project website, www.connectanokacounty.com. Also there is an organized group of public
stakeholders representing cities, school districts, colleges and other institutions that meets
periodically of which a City of Andover staff member attends.
Motion by Knight, Seconded by Trude to approve the resolution as presented.
Councilmember Bukkila stated she was able to spend some time reviewing the Anoka County
website to see what was proposed and it showed they did phone surveys and the way it was
introduced was if people would be willing to pay for a County Sponsored Broadband System and
everyone said if it was cheaper, yes but, what it did not indicate was it would probably take
taxpayers money to fund this to begin with so it may be cheaper each month once the provider
comes on board but would actually be paying more up front in tax increases. She stated five
percent of the people surveyed indicated they were concerned with taxes going up for this or they
were concerned that the Government was suddenly providing a utility service. She did not know
if it was readily clear to people when receiving the call that they would like to raise taxes to have
lower internet fees. She did not know if that was truly conveyed to the people that were
questioned and she thought the only model she knew of was the City of Minneapolis and with
that they had some existing fiber optic capabilities or they maintained the infrastructure within
the City but US Internet actually came in and paid fees for locations for the wireless to be
mounted in different locations in the City so the City received revenue for use of infrastructure.
She stated this was a considerable savings for the City to enter into a contract with US Internet.
Her concern is that Anoka County is planning on being the actual provider and there is not a
whole lot of information that the County is putting forward.
Councilmember Trude wondered when the survey was done. Mr. Dickinson stated it was in the
last three or four months. Councilmember Trude stated what she is reading is they want to
connect the County together but previously she thought that what Councilmember Bukkila was
talking about is what the County wanted to do. She wondered if this is another next generation
thing and not something the City of Minneapolis is doing. Mr. Dickinson stated they needed a
backbone fiber loop because in order to serve areas they need backbone fiber otherwise the
service would be terrible.
Councilmember Jacobson stated he would object to doing this and the City should remain silent
on it. He thought this was Government stepping in where private enterprise should be taking
over. Through the stimulus plan private companies right now are looking at expanding their
systems and if they inject County Government in this he had a bad vibe about this. He stated it
sounds great on the surface but he is a little afraid when Govermment steps in to what private
providers can and should be doing.
Councilmember Knight asked what the odds are for getting stimulus money. Councilmember
Jacobson stated stimulus money is just taxpayer money and will need to be repaid.
Councilmember Bukkila stated the resolution is a wide explanation but when you go to the
website it explains it will be paid for somehow and she thought people needed to know there is a
Regular Andover City Council Meeting
Minutes — December 15, 2009
Page 10
tax implication to this.
Councilmember Trude thought all the County Commissioners thought this was a good idea and a
worthwhile project and businesses indicating fiber optic cable is the way to go, the best and they
do not have the best in a lot of the community. She did not know why the City would not
support the County in seeking grant dollars since they have always been supportive of seeking
grant dollars in improving communications.
Councilmember Knight removed his motion until he had additional information.
Mayor Gamache stated this was also the Governor's plan to try to get outlying areas in the State
that do not have broadband and trying to bring them in as well. He thought Anoka County was
just using their ability to try to get Federal dollars to do the same thing in areas that are not being
served.
Councilmember Knight asked how they would get this service to the northern part of the City.
Mayor Gamache did not expect Comcast to bring broadband out to the outlying areas anytime
soon. Councilmember Jacobson stated the telephone companies are interested in doing that.
Mayor Gamache stated they have heard that before but he has not seen anything happen.
Councilmember Trude stated she is afraid if they do not support it and the County gets the grant
and moves ahead they will not have the opportunity to participate or will be the last to get it.
Councilmember Sukkila stated she is not denying it has a certain significant value to it but the
q uestion is who is going to pay-for it, bow T urb Of It and how are llle -y to facilitate a
private business and become a utility and what is the limit.
Mr. Dickinson stated he was at the last stake holder meeting and he reviewed the information and
outcome with the Council.
Councilmember Knight stated if this went through as proposed they would have two issues, the
WIFI and this where the northern part of the City would not qualify. Mr. Dickinson stated
private businesses are looking to expand and this is looking at the southern part of the City where
density is enough to pay for construction and ongoing fees where the northern area is not dense
enough to pay for this and may remain unserved until density raises.
The City Council discussed with staff the pros and cons to this item.
Mayor Gamache asked why the County is seeking City support. Mr. Dickinson stated it is to
present a united front.
Councilmember Knight stated he had mixed feeling about this because he could see both sides
but stated he would renew his motion.
