2 Gudmundson stated to her that is a vehicle that someone drives and it should not matter if there are

19 indicated not yet. Councilmember Jacobson stated the parcel that has been purchased is large, what
20 are his thoughts on looking at smaller parcels, Mr, Kovich indicated when you are looking at natural

24 Mr, Kovich indicated the criteria for parcel consideration has been set and part of the criteria is based
25 on SIze,
26
27 Councilmember Trude wanted to know if another meeting with the Council would be helpful. Mr.

29 parcels that are being considered to purchase,

10 HOLD PUBLIC HEARING/ORDER PLANS & SPECS/IO-2/2010 STREET
11 RECONSTRUCTION
12
13 The City Council is requested to hold a public hearing at 7:00 p,m. for Project 10-02, 2010 Street
14 Reconstruction,
15
16 Mr, Berkowitz reviewed the project with the Council.
17
18 Mayor Gamache asked how this would work for the residents, would they need to contact City Hall
19 indicating what they wanted, Mr. Berkowitz stated before construction starts they will send out a
20 letter telling them what to mark on their property along with the contractor's phone number.
21
22 Mr, Berkowitz stated once a contractor is chosen they will work with them to see if they would want
23 to do driveway reconstruction while in the area, This would need to be worked out between the
24 resident and the contractor, The City would not be involved, They will also let the homeowner
25 know where the mail boxes will be and how they can be accessed.
26
27 CounciImember Jacobson asked if the four comments received from the November meeting were
28 indicating they are not in favor of the road reconstruction, Mr, Berkowitz stated he did not want to
29 speak for the residents but it is his understanding that the majority of the residents in the
30 neighborhood felt it is time to reconstruct the road,
31
32 Motion by Jacobson, Seconded by Knight, to open the public hearing. Motion carried unanimously,
33
34 Mr, Patrick Ayers, 17132 Swallow StreetNW, stated his concern is dealing with the watershed, He
35 stated when he talked to Mr, Law last week he called about extra drainage needed from Uplander,
36 The suggestion was to dig a trench from 170tb and Uplander across his neighbors and come across
37 the south side of the lot and dump it into the existing pond. He was talking about digging a small
38 trench but it is all sand there and nothing to hold the banks and his concern is with heavy runoff and
39 there will no longer be a trench, just a stream and in order to make it work they will need to fan the
40 trench out. Mr, Law indicated it would be approximately twenty feet which he objected to since it
41 would be devaluing his property,
42
43 Mr, Berkowitz stated they have been in discussion with the watershed engineer and would like to sit
44 down with Mr, Ayers and work out different options, They want to work with the property owners to
Regular Andover City Council Meeting
Minutes - January 19, 2010
Page 4
1 work out their needs and correct drainage issues,
2
3 Mr, Ayers stated a suggestion by Mr. Law is to run a culvert, which would be better than an open
4 trench. He is concerned if they open up a trench it would affect trees in the area and could harm
5 them,
6
7 CounciImember Trude wondered if they could pave a one way circle and turn the center into a green
8 space with a depression to collect the water, Mr, Berkowitz stated there is a lot of water in there and
9 a small island would not be enough to handle the entire run off.
10
11 Mayor Gamache asked if they have gone to any property owners indicating the owner was supposed
12 to have a retention pond but it was not put in when developed, Mr, Berkowitz stated it would be
13 easier to do ifthe City had an easement but unfortunately they do not on most of the properties,
14
15 Mr, Ayers stated when he talked to Mr. Law there was discussion about building the intersection up
16 which would help the flow of the water. Mr, Berkowitz stated the bulk of area already drains down
17 to the end of the cul-de-sac,
18
19 Mr. Berkowitz explained where the water drains to and how the improvements will help the
20 drainage.
21
22 Mr, Scott Brenner, 2220 173rd Circle, asked ifthere was discussion about rain gardens as opposed to
23 digging catch basins, Mr, Berkowitz stated they had discussions with a resident but they are not
24 interested in it.
25
26 Mr, Brenner asked if the budget would change based on the amount of engineering and work that
27 goes into diverting this water. Mr. Berkowitz stated all projects are related and they treat the
28 development equally, One whole area pays for the storm water improvements done,
29
30 Mr. Ayers asked if they had the option to pay the assessment in two installments, Mr, Berkowitz
31 explained how the City would assess this to homeowners and the terms of paying the assessment.
32
33 Motion by Knight, Seconded by Bukkila, to close the public hearing, Motion carried unanimously,
34
35
36 Motion by Jacobson, Seconded by Knight, to approve the resolution ordering the improvement of

40 CONSIDER CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT/ANIMAL THERAPY FACILITY/16274 VERDIN
41 STREET NW
42
43 Mr, Bednarz explained Russell Johansson has applied for a Conditional Use Permit, on behalf of his
44 wife Diana and himself for a proposed animal therapy facility to be located at 16274 Verdin Street
Regular Andover City Council Meeting
Minutes -January 19,2010
Page 5
1 NW. The property is a 14.5 acre parcel located north of 161s1 Avenue and west of County Road 59
2 (Verdin Street) within the R-1 zoning district, City Code 12-13 allows an animal assisted therapy
3 facility as a conditional use within the R1, R2 and R3 zoning districts on properties larger than five
4 acres in size, The property is heavily wooded providing natural screening around the property.
5
6 Mr. Bednarz reviewed the staff report with the Council.
7
8 Mrs, Johansson gave the Council a brief synopsis of their business, She stated she would be doing
9 animal assisted activities with autistic children and would not be doing the therapy but there may be
10 a time where they have a therapist come to their facility to do the therapy, They do have a mental
11 health care professional that works at the Fraser Center on their board but their facility is not
12 affiliated with the Fraser Center, She oversees their program,
13
14 Councilmember Knight asked if children will be there even without a licensed therapist there, Mrs,
15 Johansson stated that is correct. Councilmember Knight wondered how that would work, Mr,
16 Johansson stated this is a program with two parts. One part is the animal assisted activities which
17 Mrs, Johansson is trained for and will perform and the second part is the therapy where a mental
18 health professional will come on to the site. The mental health professional designed their program
19 for their animal activities, After the children go through their program further therapy will be
20 conducted by the family's health professionals.
21
22 Councilmember Jacobson asked if City Attorney Baumgartner is concerned about this part of the
23 application, City Attorney Baumgartner stated he is and in looking through the definition and
24 previous minutes the concern is how to distinguish between a petting zoo and a mental health
25 facility, He stated at that time they came up with the present definition and his concern is this did
26 not fit within the definition that was created, He wondered who is really directing this program in a
27 therapeutic manner if it is not the children's own therapist providing input, insight or direction into
28 the program,
29
30 Mr. Johansson stated since they have focused their program specifically on this clientele, the
31 professional in the field is actually operating with that clientele, They are singling out this one group
32 of individuals in order to develop a program for this type of clientele, Mrs, Johansson explained how
33 they distinguished this from a petting zoo, She explained what animal assisted activities are
34 compared to animal assisted therapy.
35
36 Mrs, Johansson wondered if they even needed a permit for what they are planning on doing but are
37 hoping the program expands and want to make sure they are staying within what the City allows.
38
39 Councilmember Jacobson asked if this would be the same thing as a farmer having kids come to his
40 farm to pet animals, He wondered if a therapist is not on site why would they need a permit. City
41 Attorney Baumgartner felt this application is premature and they are not really seeking an animal
42 assisted therapy. Councilmember Jacobson agreed and did not think they needed a permit to do what
43 they wanted to do.

Page 6
1 CounciImember Knight did not know if they could label them, He wondered where the liability
2 factor lies here, City Attorney Baumgartner stated it would lie with the property owner, Mrs,
3 Johansson stated it would be up to them to check identification and make sure the person on their
4 property doing the therapy is licensed and required by the State,

6 The Council, Staff and applicants discussed the definition of animal assisted therapy and the reason
7 for giving the applicant approval for this business,
8
9 CounciImember Jacobson felt this was too early to grant approval for what the applicants want right
10 now,
11
12 Councilmember Trude stated the City is worried about the neighborhood impact and traffic and she
13 thought the list they made up was not broad enough and may need to be revised, She thought the
14 definition might be a little too narrow, Their concern is the impact on the community,
15
16 Councilmember BukkiIa thought the idea was they wanted to separate this from having the petting
17 zoo type of thing and it had a designated purpose, more of a healthcare angle to it so these are not on
18 every rural lot. The narrow focus is to keep it within the healthcare realm,
19
20 Councilmember Jacobson asked if there is a State license needed in order to operate this as animal
21 therapy, Mrs, Johansson stated there is not but a therapist needs a license.
22
23 Mr, Johansson stated in order to operate a therapy program they must be licensed which would be
24 their consultant who they will contract with to provide their services that are therapeutic based, They
25 are operating two things in tandem, The animal program was drafted, designed and evaluated by the
26 mental health professional. They are just the tool that is delivering the service,
27
28 CounciImember Bukkila thought the risk they are taking is ifthey expand the business and have a
29 therapist on site they would teclmically be breaking the rules in the City if they are not given a
30 permit. CounciImember Trude wondered if this should be tabled for legal review,
31
32 Mayor Gamache stated it is his understanding they do not need a permit for what they are doing but
33 if they approved that they have the stipulation in place for parking, etc, and would that cause any
34 issues if they did approve it. He stated if approved they would be covered if they had a therapist on
35 site, City Attorney Baumgartner thought it would but could open them up to potential problems
36 down the road, If they start approving permits based on what they might do in the future where will
37 it stop and would they be able to deny it to the next person, They are essentially agreeing to allow a
38 use that is not being used yet so it is kind of premature,
39
40 Mr, Johansson stated this program is directed by a therapist but the mental health professional is not
41 onsite, He explained to the Council how the program will work.
42
43 CounciImember Knight stated he still sees this as approving a physical facility, not a program, He
44 wondered ifthey were to just approve the facility and nothing else, Mr. Dickinson indicated the
Regular Andover City Council Meeting
Minutes - January 19, 2010
Page 7
1 resolution infers that they are approving an animal assisted therapy facility because that is how their
2 definition reads, If they want to approve it he suggested they work through the other issues and craft
3 something in the Conditional Use Permit condition one that will cover the concern of how it is
4 supervised,
5
6 Mayor Gamache asked what the other concerns are. Mrs. Johansson stated there is one they wanted
7 to address on the conditions, The working days are Tuesday-Thursday and she saw that is the only
8 days they are approved and she did not think through for inciimate weather or sick days or holiday
9 make up days so she respectfully requested the days be expanded Monday-Saturday.
10 Councilmember Trude did not think that would be a problem,
11
12 CounciImember Jacobson suggested they delay this to the next meeting to allow a change in the
13 definition so they do not have this problem, He indicated he did not have a problem with this at all.
14
15 Councilmember Trude thought it really turns on the words "facility" and "directed", Councilmember
16 Jacobson did not think it was a problem with the applicant but a problem with the definition,
17
18 Motion by Jacobson to table this until the next Council meeting,
19
20 Mr, Dickinson stated they do have a time limit, Councilmember Jacobson asked if they could ask for
21 an extension on the time limit until the first meeting in February for the City to work on this,
22
23 Mr, Dickinson asked if there is language that could be put into the CUP that would reach a
24 recommendation from the Council without modifying the Code language, City Attorney
25 Baumgartner did not think it could because he thought what they are running up against is what is a
26 facility and what does the Council want to allow to be called a facility and what do they want to be
27 allowed to be called an animal assisted therapy facility, If the Council is ok with a structure where
28 animals are housed to be considered a facility that is one definition, if they want it to be considered
29 an animal assisted therapy facility that is a different type offacility, What it boils down to is what
30 the Council would be comfortable having on this property, They tied the two together for the
31 specific purpose oflimiting petting zoos, He thought they were coming into another area of what the
32 Council would be comfortable with allowing on this property, He wondered ifthey needed to add
33 another definition to address this item,
34
35 Mr, Dickinson stated he would request an extension from the applicant if they wanted to bring this to
36 the next meeting but if the Council is not comfortable with this the other option would be to
37 recqmmend denial. He believed the applicant would give the extension to the City.
38
39 CounciImember Jacobson reminded the Council that the CUP goes with the property,
40
41 Mrs. Johansson stated the Planning and Zoning Commissioners requested additional information
42 from them, which would separate them from a petting zoo, She stated they did have training to do
43 animal assisted activities for children that is therapeutic based and provided their certification of that
44 and they did secure a mental health professional and she thought that is what differentiated them

2
3 Mr, Johansson stated there would not be a problem with traffic and is a one on one program so there
4 will not be more than one child on site at a time, He did not think there would be an impact on the
5 surrounding community, He stated he met with seven of the nine residents and was able to get their
6 signatures in favor of the facility and what they are going to do.
7
8 Mr, Dickinson suggested allowing animal assisted therapy does not seem to be a problem with the
9 Council. He offered the Council a modification to change the title ofthe resolution that removes the
10 word facility and then in the first Where As "allow animal assisted therapy on the subject property",
11 and in the "Now Therefore it Be Resolved" they add "..,authorizing animal assisted therapy as
12 proposed and subject to the following conditions,.,"
13
14 Motion by Jacobson, Seconded by Trude, to approve the resolution with Mr, Dickinson's changes
15 and in doing so point to the City Code 12-2 which defines an animal assisted therapy as one directed
16 by a health or human service provider working within the scope of his or her profession".
17
18 Councilmember Knight asked the Council to cross out items 2-4 in the resolution. CounciImember
19 Trude stated the whole point of having the permit is to have some limits because it runs with the
20 land.
21
22 CounciImember Trude asked if they could amend the motion on condition two to state, the
23 operational hours shall be limited to Monday through Saturday, between the hours of 7 :00 a,m. and
24 8:00 p,m, and to limit it to forty clients per week.
25
26 Councilmember BukkiIa suggested they change the number of clients to indicate that no more than
27 two clients on the property at one time are allowed,
28
29 CounciImember Jacobson accepted the Trude and BukkiIa amendments,
30
31 Motion carried unanimously. (See Resolution R009-1 0)

SUBJECT: Approve Resolution Accepting Donationl AAA/Sunshine Park/Scoreboards
for Ball Fields/lO-11 - Engineering
DATE: February 3,2010
INTRODUCTION
This item is in regards to approving a resolution accepting a contribution of scoreboards made by
the Andover Athletic Association to be installed at Sunshine Park for ball fields 1-6.
DISCUSSION
Attached is a letter from the Andover Athletic Association (AAA) formally notifying the City of
Andover that the AAA Board of Directors approved the purchase of 6 new scoreboards for
Sunshine Park. AAA has identified in the letter they will pay for other items such as the concrete
work and electrical work. The Public Works Department will provide equipment and manpower
to set the scoreboards on the concrete piers once the scoreboards are ready to set. The conduits
and wiring for all the scoreboards were originally installed as part of the ball field lighting.
The Park and Recreation Commission was presented with this donation from AAA on January
21, 2010 and recommended approval.
Note: One other item that has been requested by AAA is that they would like the City to consider
charging a fee to other associations that may want to use scoreboards as they have chosen not
to participate in their purchase. Staff would recommend that this be brought back to the Park
and Recreation Commission for their consideration and recommendation.
ACTION REOUlRED
The City Council is requested to approve the resolution accepting the contribution of scoreboards
for Sunshine Park.

Re: Sunshine Park Scoreboards
Dear Todd;
This is to formally notify the City of Andover that the AAA Board of Directors, at our December
2009 meeting, approved the purchase of 6 new scoreboards for Sunshine Park ballfields. Our
chosen vendor is AIM Electronics in Bloomington, MN.
The cost of the scoreboards, concrete work and electrical required to install will be paid for
with AAA funds. I understand we will go through the normal permit and inspection process
required of the City. Any contractors working on our behalf will be licensed and insured.
We hope to receive, and will acceptfrom the City, any assistance with manpower and
equipment required to move the scoreboards and poles around during installation.
We understand the boards will become the property of the City of Andover, but would hope
there is a fee charged to other associations to use them, as they chose not to participate in
their purchase.
Feel free to contact me with questions.

Date: February 3, 2010
INTRODUCTION
The City of Andover is required to comply with the latest NPDES regulations set forth by the
Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA). One requirement as part of this process is to
hold a public meeting to receive feedback on the program.
DISCUSSION
To satisfy the MPCA requirements, City staff created and submitted a Storm Water Pollution
Prevention Program (SWPPP) in May of2003. That has since been revised several times. It is
composed of Best Management Practices (BMP's), which are actions taken to improve the
quality of storm water runoff.
Staff will give a brief presentation summarizing the City's program. Following the
presentation, we ask the Mayor to open up the public meeting. Residents of the City will have
an opportunity to make written and/or oral comments on the City's efforts thus far. They may
comment on the components of the SWPPP as well.
ACTION REQUESTED
The City Council is requested to hold a public meeting to review the City's status of
compliance with the program and make recommendations as needed.

SUBJECT: Approve Bond Sale for Open Space and Refunding Bonds - Ehlers &
Associates
DATE: February 3, 2010
INTRODUCTION
Mark Ruff or Todd Hagen from Ehlers & Associates, the City's Financial Advisor, will be in
attendance to present the results of the City's sale of the following bond issues authorized at
the January 5, 2010 Council Meeting for the $3,200,000 General Obligation Open Space and
Refunding Bonds Series 2010A. A breakdown is as follows:
$1,685,000 Open Space Bonds
$1,515,000 Permanent Improvement Revolving (PIR) Refunding Bonds
DISCUSSION
The City Council authorized at the January 5,2010 Council Meeting to provide for the sale of
the aforementioned bonds based on the following justification for each bond issue:
$1,685,000 Open Space Bonds
These bonds are being issued to finance the acquisition of property for open space pursuant to
an election held on November 7, 2006 in the City.
$1,515,000 PIR Refunding Bonds
These bonds are proposed to be issued to current refund the City's outstanding Series 2006A
PIR Bonds for interest rate savings.
BUDGET IMPACT
The $1,685,000 Open Space Bonds are funded by an annual tax levy. For the $1,515,000 PIR
Refunding Bonds it is expected that the special assessments and property taxes, the sources of
payment originally pledged to the Series 2006A Bonds, will pay for the Bonds.

Long Term Rating AAt/Stable New
Andover GO
Unenhanced Rating AAt(SPUR)/Stable Affirmed
Rationale
The 'AA+' long-term rating assigned to Andover, Minn.'s series 2010A general obligation (GO) bonds is supported
by the following factors:
. Participation in the large and diverse Minneapolis-St. Paul (Twin Cities) economic base,
. Economic indicators that compare well with national averages, and
. A debt burden Standard & Poor's Ratings Services considers as low to moderate with limited additional debt
needs.
Offsetting these strengths are annual debt service costs that we consider to be high, although a wide array of
dedicated revenue sources for payment of debt service is available. In addition, amortization of debt and lease
payments that extend out to 2034 also limit the rating.
The 'AA+' long-term rating on the city's previously issued GO bonds has been affirmed. The city's unlimited-tax GO
pledge secures debt service on the series 2010A bonds and other GO bonds.
Andover is located 20 miles north of the Twin Cities and has a population of about 30,700. The city has grown
rapidly into a large bedroom community, doubling in population since 1990.
All of the city's economic indicators are favorable. Median household effective buying income is considered very
strong at 170% of the national average, and per capita effective buying income is considered strong at 126% of the
national average. The city's estimated market value is $3 billion, which equates to a level we consider very strong at
$97,045 per capita.
Andover's general fund financial position has remained very good over the past several years, and management does
not anticipate any major changes to that position. On fiscal year-end Dec. 31, 2008, the unreserved general fund
balance was $4.0 million, or what we consider to be a very strong 46.7% of expenditures. For 2009, the city expects
to post a surplus of about $165,000, and the 2010 budget is balanced without the use of reserves.
The city's financial management practices are considered "strong" under Standard & Poor's Financial Management
Assessment methodology. An assessment of strong indicates that the city's management practices are strong, well
embedded, and likely sustainable. Highlights of these policies include the following:
Standard & Poor's I RatingsDirect on the Global Credit Portal I January 26, 2010 2
771 0711300065753
Summary: Andover, Minnesota; General Obligation; Tax Increment
. Regular review of budget performance with elected officials,
. The existence of formal, multiyear financial and capital planning updated annually,
. Comprehensive investment and debt management policies, and
. The adoption of annual fund balance targets as part of the city's budget document approved by elected officials.
Overall net debt, excluding debt paid solely from utility revenues, is considered moderate at $2,184 per capita and
low at 2.3% of market value. Although debt service typically represents close to 30% of operating expenditures (a
level we consider to be high), most of the debt service is paid directly with tax increment, special assessment, or
utility revenues instead of general property taxes. Principal amortization is also somewhat below average, with 59%
retired over 10 years and 88% over 20 years.
The city's 2010-2014 capital improvement plan shows $40.0 million of capital expenditures over that time period.
The plan indicates only $4.7 million of funding from GO bonds and $12.9 million from revenue bonds, so we
consider the city's debt needs to be minimal.
Outlook
The stable outlook is based on Standard & Poor's expectation that the city will continue to benefit from its
participation in the Twin Cities' regional economy and that reserve levels will remain at levels at or above the city's
stated fund balance policy.

(c) Book Entry Only System. The Depository Trust Company, a limited purpose
trust company organized under the laws of the State of New York or any of its successors or its
successors to its functions hereunder (the "Depository") will act as securities depository for the
Bonds, and to this end:
(i) The Bonds shall be initially issued and, so long as they remain in book entry form
only (the "Book Entry Only Period"), shall at all times be in the form of a separate
single fully registered Bond for each maturity of the Bonds; and for purposes of
complying with this requirement under paragraphs 5 and 10 Authorized
Denominations for any Bond shall be deemed to be limited during the Book Entry
Only Period to the outstanding principal amount of that Bond.
(ii) Upon initial issuance, ownership of the Bonds shall be registered in a bond
register maintained by the Bond Registrar (as hereinafter defined) in the name of
CEDE & CO, as the nominee (it or any nominee of the existing or a successor
Depository, the "Nominee").
(iii) With respect to the Bonds neither the City nor the Bond Registrar shall have any
responsibility or obligation to any broker, dealer, bank, or any other financial
institution for which the Depository holds Bonds as securities depository (the
"Participant") or the person for which a Participant holds an interest in the Bonds
shown on the books and records of the Participant (the "Beneficial Owner").
Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, neither the City, nor the
Bond Registrar, shall have any such responsibility or obligation with respect to
2455318vl 3
(A) the accuracy of the records ofthe Depository, the Nominee or any Participant
with respect to any ownership interest in the Bonds, or (B) the delivery to any
Participant, any Owner or any other person, other than the Depository, of any
notice with respect to the Bonds, including any notice of redemption, or (C) the
payment to any Participant, any Beneficial Owner or any other person, other than
the Depository, of any amount with respect to the principal of or premium, if any,
or interest on the Bonds, or (D) the consent given or other action taken by the
Depository as the Registered Holder of any Bonds (the "Holder"). For purposes
of securing the vote or consent of any Holder under this Resolution, the City may,
however, rely upon an omnibus proxy under which the Depository assigns its
consenting or voting rights to certain Participants to whose accounts the Bonds
are credited on the record date identified in a listing attached to the omnibus
proxy.
(iv) The City and the Bond Registrar may treat as and deem the Depository to be the
absolute owner of the Bonds for the purpose of payment of the principal of and
premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds, for the purpose of giving notices of
redemption and other matters with respect to the Bonds, for the purpose of
obtaining any consent or other action to be taken by Holders for the purpose of
registering transfers with respect to such Bonds, and for all purpose whatsoever.
The Bond Registrar, as paying agent hereunder, shall pay all principal of and
premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds only to the Holder or the Holders of
the Bonds as shown on the bond register, and all such payments shall be valid and
effective to fully satisfy and discharge the City's obligations with respect to the
principal of and premium, ifany, and interest on the Bonds to the extent of the
sum or sums so paid.
(v) Upon delivery by the Depository to the Bond Registrar of written notice to the
effect that the Depository has determined to substitute a new Nominee in place of
the existing Nominee, and subject to the transfer provisions in paragraph 10,
references to the Nominee hereunder shall refer to such new Nominee.
(vi) So long as any Bond is registered in the name of a Nominee, all payments with
respect to the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on such Bond and all
notices with respect to such Bond shall be made and given, respectively, by the
Bond Registrar or City, as the case may be, to the Depository as provided in the
Letter of Representations to the Depository required by the Depository as a
condition to its acting as book-entry Depository for the Bonds (said Letter of
Representations, together with any replacement thereof or amendment or
substitute thereto, including any standard procedures or policies referenced
therein or applicable thereto respecting the procedures and other matters relating
to the Depository's role as book-entry Depository for the Bonds, collectively
hereinafter referred to as the "Letter of Representations").
(vii) All transfers of beneficial ownership interests in each Bond issued in book-entry
form shall be limited in principal amount to Authorized Denominations and shall
2455318vl 4
be effected by procedures by the Depository with the Participants for recording
and transferring the ownership of beneficial interests in such Bonds.
(viii) In connection with any notice or other communication to be provided to the
Holders pursuant to this Resolution by the City or Bond Registrar with respect to
any consent or other action to be taken by Holders, the Depository shall consider
the date of receipt of notice requesting such consent or other action as the record
date for such consent or other action; provided, that the City or the Bond Registrar
may establish a special record date for such consent or other action. The City or
the Bond Registrar shall, to the extent possible, give the Depository notice of such
special record date not less than fifteen calendar days in advance of such special
record date to the extent possible.
(ix) Any successor Bond Registrar in its written acceptance of its duties under this
Resolution and any paying agency/bond registrar agreement, shall agree to take
any actions necessary from time to time to comply with the requirements of the
Letter of Representations.
(x) In the case of a partial prepayment of a Bond, the Holder may, in lieu of
surrendering the Bonds for a Bond of a lesser denomination as provided in
paragraph 5, make a notation of the reduction in principal amount on the panel
provided on the Bond stating the amount so redeemed.
(d) Termination of Book-Entry Only Svstem. Discontinuance of a particular
Depository's services and termination of the book-entry only system may be effected as follows:
(i) The Depository may determine to discontinue providing its services with respect
to the Bonds at any time by giving written notice to the City and discharging its
responsibilities with respect thereto under applicable law. The City may
terminate the services of the Depository with respect to the Bond ifit determines
that the Depository is no longer able to carry out its functions as securities
depository or the continuation of the system of book-entry transfers through the
Depository is not in the best interests of the City or the Beneficial Owners.
(ii) Upon termination of the services of the Depository as provided in the preceding
paragraph, and if no substitute securities depository is willing to undertake the
functions of the Depository hereunder can be found which, in the opinion of the
City, is willing and able to assume such functions upon reasonable or customary
terms, or if the City determines that it is in the best interests of the City or the
Beneficial Owners of the Bond that the Beneficial Owners be able to obtain
certificates for the Bonds, the Bonds shall no longer be registered as being
registered in the bond register in the name of the Nominee, but may be registered
in whatever name or names the Holder of the Bonds shall designate at that time,
in accordance with paragraph 10. To the extent that the Beneficial Owners are
designated as the transferee by the Holders, in accordance with paragraph 10, the
Bonds will be delivered to the Beneficial Owners.
2455318vl 5
(iii) Nothing in this subparagraph (d) shall limit or restrict the provisions of paragraph
10.
(e) Letter of Representations. The provisions in the Letter of Representations are
incorporated herein by reference and made a part of the resolution, and if and to the extent any
such provisions are inconsistent with the other provisions of this resolution, the provisions in the
Letter of Representations shall control.
3. Purposes: Findings. The Bonds shall provide funds to finance the Project and for
a current refunding of the Refunded Bonds (the "Refunding"). The total cost of the Project,
which shall include all costs enumerated in Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.65, is estimated to
be at least equal to the amount of the Tax Levy Portion of the Bonds. Work on the Project shall
proceed with due diligence to completion. The City covenants that it shall do all things and
perform all acts required of it to assure that work on the Project proceeds with due diligence to
completion and that any and all permits and studies required under law for the Project are
obtained. It is hereby found, determined and declared that the Refunding is pursuant to
Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.67, and shall result in a reduction of debt service cost to the
City.
4. Interest. The Bonds shall bear interest payable semiannually on February 1 and
August 1 of each year (each, an "Interest Payment Date"), commencing August 1, 2010,
calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months, at the respective rates per
annum set forth opposite the maturity years as follows:
Maturity Year Interest Rate Maturity Year Interest Rate
2011 2017
2012 2018
2013 2019
2014 2020
2015 2021
2016 2022
5. Optional Redemption. All Bonds maturing on February 1,2019, and thereafter,
shall be subject to redemption and prepayment at the option of the City on February 1,2018, and
on any date thereafter at a price of par plus accrued interest. Redemption may be in whole or in
part of the Bonds subject to prepayment. If redemption is in part, the maturities and the principal
amounts within each maturity to be redeemed shall be determined by the City; and if only part of
the Bonds having a common maturity date are called for prepayment, the specific Bonds to be
prepaid shall be chosen by lot by the Bond Registrar. Bonds or portions thereof called for

outstanding and unpaid, provided that the City reserves the right and power to reduce the levies
in the manner and to the extent permitted by Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.61, Subdivision 3.

the Refunding Portion of the Bonds. The special assessments are such that if collected in full
they will produce at least five percent in excess of the amount needed to meet when due the
principal and interest payments on the Refunding Portion of the Bonds; consequently, no taxes
are levied at the present time. The special assessments were levied as provided below, payable
in equal, consecutive, annual installments, with general taxes for the years shown below and with

powers of the City shall be and are hereby irrevocably pledged. If the balance in the Debt
Service Account is ever insufficient to pay all principal and interest then due on the Bonds and
any other bonds payable therefrom, the deficiency shall be promptly paid out of any other funds
of the City which are available for such purpose, and such other funds may be reimbursed with
or without interest from the Debt Service Account when a sufficient balance is available therein.

and information as are required to show the facts relating to the legality and marketability of the

refunding bond does not exceed the outstanding amount ofthe refunded bond;
(f) the aggregate face amount of the Refunding Portion of the Bonds does not exceed
$5,000,000;
(g) each of the Prior Bonds was issued as part of an issue which was treated as
meeting the rebate requirements by reason of the exception for governmental units issuing
$5,000,000 or less of bonds;
(h) the average maturity of the Refunding Portion of the Bonds does not exceed the
remaining average maturity of the Prior Bonds; and
(i) no part of the Refunding Portion of the Bonds has a maturity date which is later
than the date which is thirty years after the date the Prior Bonds were issued.
26. Designation ofOualified Tax-Exempt Obligations. In order to qualify the Bonds

entities whose obligations are treated as issued by the City) during this calendar year 2010 will
not exceed $30,000,000;
(e) not more than $30,000,000 of obligations issued by the City during this calendar

2455318vl 21

$30,000,000;
(i) the average maturity of the Refunding Portion of the Bonds does not exceed the
remaining average maturity of the Refunded Bonds;
G) no part ofthe Refunding Portion of the Bonds has a maturity date which is later

apply in order to effectuate the designation made by this paragraph.

all pledges, covenants and other rights granted by this resolution to the registered holders of the
Bonds shall, to the extent permitted by law, cease. The City may discharge its obligations with
respect to any Bonds which are due on any date by irrevocably depositing with the Bond

should not be paid when due, it may nevertheless be discharged by depositing with the Bond
Registrar a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full with interest accrued to the date of such
deposit. The City may also at any time discharge its obligations with respect to any Bonds,
subject to the provisions oflaw now or hereafter authorizing and regulating such action, by

SUBJECT: Consider Conditional Use PermitlHidden Creek North Park/Clear Wireless LLC-
Planning
DATE: February 3, 2010
INTRODUCTION
Clear Wireless, LLC is seeking to locate a 75 foot tall tower and wireless internet antenna array
within Hidden Creek North Park. A conditional use permit is required to locate antennas above
35 feet in height.
DISCUSSION
The attached photo simulation illustrates what the antenna will look like from ground level. The
attached site plan shows the proposed location of the tower within the park. Additional
attachments show a top view and all four side views of the tower, including the proposed antenna
installation and ground mounted equipment.
The antenna equipment will be located inside what is commonly referred to as a stealth
monopole. As a result the entire tower will be 32 inches in diameter and the antennas will not be
visible.
As with all antenna installations, some ground mounted equipment will be necessary. For this
installation a small cabinet will be located near the base of the tower. The cabinet will be
approximately 38 inches wide by 25 inches deep and 54 inches tall. A photograph of a similar
cabinet is attached. A six foot tall chain link fence will enclose the tower and cabinet within a
ten foot by ten foot area. In the event the proposal is approved, staff is recommending that slats
be provided in the fence to provide additional screening.
Review Criteria
12-14-6 B. provides the following general criteria for granting conditional use permits:
1. In granting a Conditional Use Permit, the City Council shall consider the
advice and recommendation of the Planning Commission and:
a. The effect of the proposed use upon the health, safety, morals
and general welfare of occupants of surrounding lands.
b. Existing and anticipated traffic conditions, including parking
facilities on adjacent streets and land.
c. The effect on values of property and scenic views in the
surrounding area, and the effect of the proposed use on the
Comprehensive Plan.
City Code 9-12 provides the specific requirements for antennas and towers. The proposal meets
the height, location and design requirements of City Code 9-12. The revised location suggested
by the Park and Recreation Commission will also meet the setback requirements of City Code 9-
12.
The applicant is requesting a variance to the collocation requirements to allow the new tower to
be solely utilized by Clear Wireless LLC. Typically new towers are required to provide space for
additional future users. The request for this variance was encouraged by staff to reduce the
height of the tower as described below.
As with all variances, hardship must be demonstrated to vary from the City Code. The standards
used to evaluate hardship are as follows:
1. There are circumstances unique to the property that were not created by the landowner.
Unique conditions may include the physical characteristics, including topography or
water conditions that may exist on the property.
2. The property, if the variance is granted, will not be out of character with other properties
in the same neighborhood.
3. The applicant has exhausted all reasonable possibilities for using his/her property
4. Economic considerations may not constitute an undue hardship if reasonable use of the
property exists with application of the minimum standards of this chapter.
The applicant has indicated that by allowing Clear Wireless, LLC to be the sole user of the tower
that the tower height can be held down to 75 feet in height. Typically 12 feet of separation is the
minimum required between different types of antennas. This means that the tower height would
need to be increased by that amount for each additional collocation opportunity. Additionally,
equipment can only be shrouded at the top of the tower due to structural requirements. This
means that any antennas collocated below the top of the tower would require an antenna array to
hang off the side of the tower as many older installations have done in the past. Staff is in favor
of the variance to allow the reduced height and to prevent the potential for additional antennas
and ground mounted equipment from being located in the park.
Location
This park was selected as one of five proposed antenna locations in the city to provide wireless
internet coverage to the more densely populated areas of the city. Staff asked the applicant to
evaluate the recently constructed T -mobile tower approximately one quarter mile to the north
along Crosstown Drive. The applicant indicated that this location was too far north to provide
the coverage area that is needed. The applicant will be present at the meeting to discuss the
coverage area maps used to make this determination.
The applicant indicated that the location of the tower within the park can be adjusted based on
the preferences of the city. The location was discussed by the Park and Recreation Commission.
The Commission recommended that the tower be located as far north as possible between the
skating rink and ball field. This general area is shown on the attached 'Park and Recreation
Commission Recommended Location' drawing.
Radio Frequency Emissions and Interference with Other Signals
The applicant will be present to address these items. Generally, studies conducted and monitored
by the United States Federal Communications Commission have found that these types of
installations do not pose a threat to humans. Additionally, the applicant is required to be licensed
to use a specific frequency to prevent interference with other signals. The applicant has provided
a copy of this license.
Planning Commission Recommendation
The Commission recommended approval of the conditional use permit and variance to
collocation requirements with a 5-1 vote. The recommendation included a request that the Park
and Recreation Commission review the location of the tower and make a recommendation based
on their experience. The draft minutes from the meeting are attached.
Park and Recreation Commission Recommendation
The Commission recommended approval ofthe proposed conditional use permit with a 5-1 vote.
The recommendation suggested the tower be located between the ball field and ice skating rink
as shown on the 'Park and Recreation Commission Suggested Tower Location' attachment.
Additionally, the Commission requested trees to provide screening of the ground mounted
equipment. The draft minutes from the meeting are attached.
ACTION REOUESTED
The Council is asked to approve or deny the proposed conditional use permit. If the Council
wishes to approve this item, the location should be specified along with the conditions of
approval included in the attached resolution.

Clearwire Communications, (NASDAQ: CLWR), offers a robust suite of advanced
high-speed Internet services to consumers and businesses. As part of a multi-year
network build-out plan, Clearwire's 4G service, called CLEAWM, will be available in
major metropolitan areas across the U.S, and bring together an unprecedented
combination of speed and mobility. Clearwire's open all-IP network, combined
with significant spectrum holdings, provides unmatched network capacity to
deliver next generation broadband access. Strategic investors include Intel
Capital, Comcast, Sprint, Google, Time Warner Cable, and Bright House Networks.
Clearwire is currently working on network expansion in Minnesota with over 500
new sites proposed for the Twin Cities service market.
Clearwire combines two of the most exciting technological advances of our
generation - mobile communications and the Internet - in order to free their
customers to take their rich home or office broadband experience with them
anywhere around town or on the go. The system consists of a wireless high-speed
modem, about the size of a small book. Customers simply plug the modem into a
power outlet anywhere in their home or office and connect the modem to their
PC to access the internet. Clearwire operates form a point-to-point, line of site
relay system of antennas to provide the Clearwire customer experience is similar
to that provided by Wi-Fi, but without the short range limitations of a traditional
hotspot. Clearwire uses a 4G technology that differs from Wi-Fi called WiMAX,
which provides service areas measured in miles, not feet.
Clearwire's typical installation requires an average rad center height of
between75'-125' and the equipment footprint is typically 1 single BTS cabinet
that fits inside a 7' x 7' area. This "low impact" footprint easily allows for many
collocation sites. Over 75% of there sites will be collocations. When there is not a
structure in the immediate area to collocate on, Clearwire will agree construct a
new monopole, favoring light pole replacements using existing light pole
locations, Ball fields, City Parks, etc.
Clearwire is approved and licensed by the FCC. Headquartered in Kirkland, Wash.,
additional information about Clearwire is available at www.c1earwire.com.

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
CITY OF ANDOVER
COUNTY OF ANOKA
STATE OF MINNESOTA
Thursday; January 21st
7:00 PM
Andover City Hall
1685 Crosstown Boulevard West
Andover, MN 55304
The City of Andover Parks Board will have a meeting as noted above to discuss the
Conditional Use Permit (09-11) to erect a 75 foot telecommunications tower for Clear
Wireless, llC behind the outfield fence of the baseball diamond in Hidden Creek North
Park at 2620 Bunker lake Boulevard in Andover (see attached park map).
The City Council of Andover had a Planning Meeting on Tuesday, January 12th in which the
council members voted 5 FOR and 1 AGAINST the permit, but TABLED the issue until the
Parks Board meets on Thursday, January 21st at 7:00 PM at the City of Andover located at
1685 Crosstown Blvd. to further discuss this matter. This meeting is open to the public for
comments and questions. I urge anyone who uses the park for Little League baseball,
soccer, area day cares, ice skaters and park play equipment users, to attend this meeting
(preferably with ALL their children) to voice opposition to this ill-planned request.
This tower will emit microwaves in low frequencies, and I was told that if the tower fell, it was
supposed to collapse in upon itself. We have a major issue in the area with straight line
winds arising out of the low lying area that the park sits on, not to mention the fact that the
park is basically a large sand box.
Clear Wireless sent a representative to the January 1 ih meeting to discuss their installation
plans, however they sent a marketing person (not an engineer) so none of the technical
questions could be answered logically as to the safety concerns voiced. We need
documented proof about the environmental readings related to the tower's emissions and
who will assume liability if the tower falls and injures or kills someone.
The notice for the January 1 ih meeting was only sent to the people living directly on the
park's perimeter, so please pass along this information to anyone else you feel would have
their children's health and safety jeopardized by this installation. Let's make them find
another spot for this microwave emitter. Thank you for all you can do to keep our park safe!
Unable to attend the January 21st
meeting? Call Todd Haas (763)
767-5131 or Email him at

Thank you for your response.
Here is the email that I would like the Council to hear/see.
Dear Council members,
My name is Colleen Kay Thompson, I have lived behind Hidden Creek North Park since before it was really
even a park. It was just a single mass of playground equipment. I have so many memories of playing
there as a child they are countless. I urge you to reconsider putting a telecommunications tower in the
park. Not only is it smack in the middle of a neighborhood, but it is a highly used park weather it be
winter or summer. Please reconsider the placement of the tower somewhere less residential.
Thank you,
Colleen K. Thompson

Mr. Bednarz,
We are unable to attend the Public Meeting on January 12, 2010 regarding the telecommunications tower for Clear
Wireless, though we would like to state our reasons for opposing this tower put up at the Hidden Creek North Park.
A tower of that size is too big for that area that they are suggesting. There is not enough room between the basketball
court and playground equipment. This does not belong in a park where there are lots of children around. During the
spring, summer, and fall, the baseball and soccer fields are very busy with many children.
We are opposing this tower being put up in this park.
Thank you,

Todd,
Below is a response you can forward to the resident.
Thanks!
Steve
How long has your company been in business and in what cities are your towers currently located?
October 2003. In Minnesota Clearwire is in St. Cloud and Duluth. Also in 10 other states. Clearwire
currently has over 1 million subscribers
. How many other locations in our immediate area have you tried to get permits for prior to
deciding on this park? We have not applied for any in this specific site. We reviewed the area
and selected a prior park site which was deemed to small by the City of Andover Zoning
Department.
. Is this tower of your own design (i.e. do you hold the patent on it)? If yes, what is that patent
number? No. The monopole is made by tower company and is commonly used throughout the
area. If the City would like we can supply a structural evaluation at the time of building permit
application
. Do you have documentation as to the microwave emission rate coming out of this tower
design? Who certified these readings? Clearwire has been reviewed and approved to
operate and is licensed by the Federal Government (FCC). Wireless design and applications
1
are not handled or reviewed on a City, County or State level. Feel free to review infomation
from the FCC if you would like.
. Can this tower be located elsewhere and still be effective? FYI - The City of Andover just
erected a new Civil Service Siren adjacent to the Fire Station on Crosstown. Can't your tower
be located there instead? No. We have reviewed all sites in the area and this site is the only
area where we can get the coverage we need for the surrounding area. This is part of a
network of sites that all tie into one another. We always try and collocate on existing towers or
buildings (over 70% of our new locations are on existing sites)
t;t'J-
. Has the City of Andover or the Parks Department sent notices to the Little Baseball or Girls
Intramural Soccer Leagues disclosing these plans? If not, then why? City question
. Why would anyone lend you money to expand your business when you don't even have
preliminary approvals for your prospective tower locations? Not sure what's meant by
"preliminary approvals" but we have been working with the City on this site for 6 months.
. Can the other towers in the area be raised so this tower wouldn't be necessary at all? No. This
site ties into existing sites (City water towers).
. Who assumes liability if the tower falls in the park and injures or kills someone? There will be
an insurance policy in place to cover anything of this nature.
. Who assumes liability if someone is injured due to electrical shock from the tower? There will
be an insurance policy in place to cover anything of this nature.
. Who assumes liability when the baseball players use the tower for target practice and it gets
damaged? It is a metal tower and it's unlikely a baseball would damage it, but Clearwire
assumes tower maintenance responsibilities as it's Clearwire's pole.
. Who will dismantle the tower when your company goes bankrupt in the middle of the night?
Clearwire is a publicly traded company on the NASDAQ. The City requires us to provide
financial backing to remove the tower in the event it is no longer used.
. What is the City of Andover or the Parks Department getting in return for putting the tower in
the park? Monthly rent that is used specifically for maintenance and upgrades to this Park.
. Why were the.City of Andover Planning Meeting Notices only sent to the people living directly
on the park? The City is required to notify residents within 300' of the area

Mr. Haas,
We are unable to be at the meeting tomorrow regarding the tower that Clear Wireless wants to put up at the park at
Hidden Creek.
We want you to know that we are totally against them putting this tower up there. A park is not place for this tower.
This is an area were baseball games are played, soccer games are played, and a playground where kids run and play. It is
a residential area. I certainly do not want to look out my window and see some sore looking tower up. This company is
not thinking about the safety of the children that are living in this area that use this park. I am sure there are other
areas where this tower can be put up.
Please let the Park Board and the council members know that we are opposed to this tower being put up at the Hidden
Creek Park North.
Thank you,

Hi Todd I believe this would be a huge mistake to'put tower at the park this is where kids are!!
Find a place to put thIs tower where kids are not present! This also is a place where familys go!! Its
a direct representation of our community. Do wewant to show other cQmmunitys that attend ,
sporting events at our locations that having this tower is ok. Its a beautiful park and to put this
tower there does not make any sense. Its like putting a garbage dump in the middle of a h'abitat

Dear Mr. Haas:
I am writing to suggest that you find a alternate location for the 75 foot telecommunications tower which
is currently proposed to be erected at Hidden Creek North Park.
We live just across the street, kiddy corner to the path down to the park, at 13594 Hidden Creek Dr., and
the tower will undoubtedly be in plain view out our front window. Not only is it an eye sore, but also the
real and/or perceivep health risks associated with such structures may serve to devalue my, and my
neighbors, property.
I urge you to please find a better location for the tower. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Todd Haas,
We live at 2591 136th Ave NW and our backyard which butts up to the park where children play their
sports, we helped make our neighborhood look and feel better to live in by spending $4 million or so of
our tax dollars to upgrade this park and NOW you want to put a "TOWER" in our 'backyards? Have you
lost you mind? What are you thinking? not only do we want this crazed idea stopped in its tracks, it is in
the park in the field area where kids are playing, in the sights of us and our neighbors as HELLO we like
to look out our windows now but NOT to see a steel structure that would fall hi a storm, and take away
from the beauty of the park, as well as block our view. We live here YOU dont so stop and think how you
would feel having a heap of metal looking in your windows, flashing lights so planes done hit it in your
windows at night, who ever is trying to make money off this is a fool! As the neighborhood that
surrounds this park and our back yards that is directly affected by some idiotic idea will not be the same.
Hmmm the churches down the way have plenty of land that would not be adversely affected, the swamp
at co 18 and co 116 has plenty of unused property that would not on'ly help to assist in what ever signal
you think will help out here, but not affect the general public and THEIR property as much as it will in a
park... where game after game of all sports is being played and also I DONT WANT TO LOOK OUT MY
WINDOWS AND SEE THIS CRAP! Lets think about this, and votes.. if this happens DO NOT EXPECT to
be voted back into office as this is completely and uneducated decision, idiotic to put it where children
are finally playing, and an EYE sore. Can we complain then and have whomever cited for an EYE SORE
to us the people who have to look at it everyday? As Andover is quick to pass ordinances to keep our
community clean.... Now Really how crazy is this? I think our legislature needs to be notified, and when it
falls and kills someone in their own back yard due to flying debris? Speaking of, your park service cant
even keep the garbage from the park from flying into our backyards how can you think you could keep
this a safe, idea?
Dumb not impressed, honestly do we need to get people in office with an engineering degree and

Page 7 DRAFT
PUBLIC HEARING: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 09-11 TO CONSIDER
TELECOMMUNICATIONS TOWER FOR CLEAR WIRELESS, LLC IN HIDDEN
CREEK NORTH PARK LOCATED AT 2620 BUNKER LAKE BOULEVARD NW
Mr. Bednarz noted Clear Wireless, LLC is seeking to locate a 75 foot tall tower and
wireless internet antenna array within Hidden Creek North Park. A conditional use
permit is required to locate antenna above 35 feet in height.
Mr. Bednarz reviewed the proposed Conditional Use Permit with the Commission.
Commissioner Kirchoff asked what the Park Commission feelings were on this. Mr.
Bednarz stated the Park Commission will review this at their next meeting. He stated the
intent of the Planning Commission was to have a public hearing and weigh in on the
review criteria for the CUP.
Commissioner Holthus agreed with staff that this is probably not the best location for the
tower. She thought the Park Commission should recommend where the tower should be
placed.
Commissioner Walton asked if there was a tornado siren pole in the park. Mr. Bednarz
indicated there was not.
Motion by Falk, seconded by Kirchoff, to open the public hearing. Motion carried on a
6-ayes,O-nays, I-absent (Casey) vote.
Mr. John Lexxon, 13564 Hidden Creek Drive, stated where they are proposing to place
the tower is the actual focal point of the park where people meet and kids play. He could
not believe there is not a better location for this. He stated he was against putting this
type of equipment in a public park.
Ms. Patricia Grayheck, 13678 Yukon Street, stated when they moved to Andover the big
selling point in that area was all the utilities were placed under ground and nothing to
look at but beauty. She stated there are people there at all times of the year and she stated
she cannot see this happening. She asked, for the children, please put this somewhere
else.
Mr. John Stinson, 2551 136th Avenue, stated he lives in the southeast comer of the park
and agreed with the other residents. He has seen kids play in the park all the time and he
would not want to see the tower come down with a lot of kids playing in the park. He
stated they will also have to put underground electricity to the tower and will that cost
money to the residents to place it underground. Chairperson Daninger indicated it would
not be a cost to the City or residents.
Mr. Stinson thought the tower could be placed in the landfill area because it is not being
used for anything. It was noted that nothing could be placed in the landfill area.

Ms. Susan Wince, 13684 Yukon, stated they live right by the park and bring their
daughter to the park all the time. She did not want this in her neighborhood, backyard or
the park. She stated this would be an eyesore and would not be safe with children in the
area.
Mr. Lexxon asked what kind of tower is this. He wondered if there will be microwave
emissions and possibly dangerous.
Ms. Grayheck stated children do fly kites and other toys in the park and if a tower were
placed in the park people would not use the park anymore.
Chairperson Daninger noted the Commission received a letter from Renee Hinnenkamp,
who was not in favor of the tower.
Mr. Steve Stalls, Clear Wire, LLC, reviewed the proposal with the Commission.
Chairperson Daninger asked what kind of pole this will be. Mr. Stalls stated it will be a
monopole and all the antennas will be located inside the tower. Chairperson Daninger
asked if Mr. Stalls was qualified as to concerns with it in case it falls and how it falls.
Mr. Stalls stated the monopole itself is designed to collapse upon itself in half the
distance. In regard to property line setbacks it is well within the full height of the tower.
He stated they have discussed other areas in the park where the tower could be placed and
would be willing to put a siren on the tower and is flexible as long as the tower is to
remain in the park itself.
Chairperson Daninger stated there was a question about what was transmitted from the
tower. Mr. Stalls stated they operate at 2.4 to 2.6 GHz, which is a very low frequency.
He explained what a point to point relay system is.
Commissioner Holthus asked if the network would work iflocated outside of Hidden
Creek Park. Mr. Stalls stated if this site is not there then the surrounding sites cannot
connect or work together. He noted they have done extensive research on this and the
park is the area that will work.
Commissioner Holthus wondered if another pole by the Fire Station would work because
it is new pole with collocation and a new siren on it also. Mr. Stalls stated it would not
work based on their research they have taken.
Commissioner Kirchoff thought it was interesting that they could install lights on the
pole. Mr. Stalls stated they could do this to light up a baseball field if the City wanted
that.

Commissioner Falk asked if they would need to access the monopole by a truck or van.
Mr. Stalls stated they would not need to access with a truck; the technician could walk to
the site and carry the equipment they would need.
Chairperson Daninger asked what the sound emissions would be. Mr. Stalls stated there
is virtually no sound being emitted.
Chairperson Daninger asked what kind of screening would be needed. Mr. Stalls stated
they currently have a six foot fence proposed but could angle the top so a ball would
bounce off and come back.
Mr. Stalls stated this site will connect to the Coon Rapids site and other sites in Andover.
The Commission discussed with Mr. Stalls possible locations for the pole other than the
proposed site.
Motion by Walton, seconded by Holthus, to close the public hearing. Motion carried on
a 6-ayes, O-nays, I-absent (Casey) vote.
Commissioner Falk asked ifthere were any plans to put up lights at the field. Mr.
Bednarz stated he did not think so but it could be discussed at the Park Commission.
Commissioner Kirchoff wondered if there was a possibility of putting this in the parking
lot for a light. Commissioner Falk indicated this is higher ground also. Commissioner
Cleveland wondered ifthere would be room in the parking lot for a pole. Mr. Bednarz
stated the issue is that the park boundaries are somewhat narrowed by the parking lot and
the seventy-five foot tower could fall in a direction that would be outside of the park
lines.
Mr. Bednarz stated if the Commission is interest in looking at alternate sites, the only
spots in the park that are not occupied by park facilities are between the outfield fence
and the soccer field.
Commissioner Holthus asked if there was another area in the vicinity where the tower
would be permitted. Mr. Bednarz reviewed the commercial sites with the Commission.
Mr. Bednarz noted the revenue from this would go back into the park.
Commissioner Kirchoff stated he would like to see what the Park Commission decides
regarding this because they may be able to fmd a better place for this. He would like to
table this to see what the Park Commission says.
Commissioner Walton stated he sympathized with everyone that lived around this park.
He indicated they needed to find a place for this and make it fit. He was concurring

about tabling to hear what the Park Commission wants to do. He noted there is a spot on
here near Outlot A that might work.
Chairperson Daninger asked if the Commission wanted the tower in the park and if so,
where would they like it. Commissioner Cleveland stated he would like it in the park but
someplace else in the park.
Commissioner Holthus stated she did not have a problem with it being in the park but
would like to hear from the Park Commission to see what they would want. The rest of
the Commission concurred.
Chairperson Daninger stated he did not like that spot and felt there was another spot that
this tower could go outside of the park.
Commissioner Holthus stated she saw Hidden Creek Park as being on Andover's main
street and was apprehensive about having the tower in Hidden Creek Park.
Chairperson Daninger asked if the Commission was ok with the seventy-five feet.
Commissioner Cleveland thought it was too tall.
Motion by Walton, seconded by Falk, to approve the request for a tower in Hidden Creek
Park subject to better location and input from the Park Commission and allowing the
variance ofseventy-five feet. Motion carried on a 5-ayes, I-nays (Daninger), I-absent
(Casey) vote.
Mr. Bednarz stated that this item would be before the Park and Recreation Commission at
the January 21, 2010 meeting.
PUBLIC HEARING: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 10-05 TO CONSIDER
TELECOMMUNICATIONS ANTENNAS FOR CLEAR WIRELESS, LLC ON CITY
WATER TOWER LOCATED AT 14057 ROSE STREET NW
Mr. Bednarz noted Clear Wireless, LLC is seeking to locate a wireless internet antenna
array at the top of a city water tower located on this city park property. A conditional use
permit is required to locate antennas above 35 feet in height. The water tower is 140 feet
tall.
Mr. Bednarz reviewed the staff report with the Commission.
Commissioner Falk asked if Clear Wireless will need access to the inside of the tower.
Mr. Bednarz stated they will need access occasionally and will be required to notify the
City when access is needed.

PARKAND RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING - JANUARY 21, Q~AFT
MINUTES
The Regular Bi-Monthly Meeting of the Andover Park and Recreation Commission was called to
order by Chair Butler on January 21,2010,7:00 p.m., at the Andover City Hall, 1685 Crosstown
Boulevard NW, Andover, Minnesota.
Commissioners Present: Chair Ted Butler, Tony Kowalewski, Vice Chair Jim Lindahl,
Mark Miskowiec, Shan Ramnath and Shaun Van Vark.
Commissioners Absent: Bill Hupp.
Also Present: Assistant Public Works Director, Todd Haas.
REVIEW REQUEST FOR CUP/CLEARWIREIHIDDEN CREEK NORTH PARK
Mr. Haas explained that this item is in regards to reviewing a request for a Conditional Use
Permit (CUP) from Clear Wireless, LLC to place a telecommunications antenna facility at
Hidden Creek North Park.
Mr. Steve Schulz, Representative, reviewed the request with the Commission.
Commissioner Miskowiec wondered if a water tower is used to place an antenna on is the
antenna shorter or is the same size antenna used as in other places. Mr. Schulz stated they
typically place an antenna on the top of a water tank and their equipment would be placed on the
top rail with no additional construction done. This site is seventy-five feet which is the
minimum they can go to hit the other sites. This is a site to site connection.
Commissioner Van Vark wondered what they would do if the park was not located where it is,
would they look for a private landowner or business owner to try to fmd space. Mr. Schulz
stated they start first with the City Code and review the telecommunications code to find out
where the towers are available to be placed and the setback requirements and then they look from
there. That is how they found this spot because they meet all the setback requirements and that
is why they got Planning Commission recommendation.
Mr. John Stinson, 2551 136th Avenue North, stated he did not want to look at an antenna when
he looks out his window. He thought there were better places in the City to place the antenna.
Mrs. Ally Torres, 13669 Yukon, stated a couple of her concerns were if other options and
locations were looked at and what kind of security will the tower have. She stated the safety and
security of the kids come first.
Mr. & Mrs. Andrew and Kristina Tremble, 2633 136th Avenue NW, stated they purchased the
house on December 15th, not know this was all taking place and if they had known that this was
'3f
on the table they would not have purchased the house. He wanted to look out his window and
see kids playing in the park and not a tower. He stated City Parks are not for towers they are for
kids to play in and people to enjoy. He stated he was also concerned about the loss of property
value on a house they just purchased. He stated they also did not receive any notice of this item
being discussed.
Mr. Tremble wondered why other areas in the City were not looked at for the site of the antenna.
Mrs. Tremble stated she is taking care of her mother who has cancer and she does not want her to
be exposed to anything harmful. She also noted she has a daycare and does not want the kids to
play on or near the tower or to lose business because of an antenna being put in the park by them.
Mrs. Jan Anderson, 1368 Yukon Street, stated this is a segway to what the previous speakers
mentioned. She stated she has lived in this neighborhood for 21 years and has seen the weather
that goes through there. The park is rather low and they have had any number of straight line
winds go through the park. She did not think a tower would be feasible. There is also very
sandy soil there which would not support the tower.
Ms. Patricia Greyheck, 13678 Yukon Street, stated she was at the last meeting for this and
discussion regarding the possibility of the tower falling in the street if it did not fall on itself.
She wondered about the safety of the people who use the park. She also wondered if the City
was going to reimburse the residents for the loss of value to their homes because of this.
Mr. John Lexxon, 13564 Hidden Creek Drive, stated his concern has to do with the right of way.
He thought utilities had to purchase right of way to put in utilities and he wondered why this
does not need to be done. He also wondered how the park will benefit from this and how will it
be improved.
Chair Butler stated they do not have current plans for the park because they do not budget for it
until they actually have the money.
Mr. Lexxon wondered how much will the City get for the antenna being placed in the park. Mr.
Haas stated it had not been determined yet. Mr. Lexxon stated he did not want this antenna in
their park because there are commercial properties in the area that could be used.
Ms. Kate Morphew, 13682 Xavix Street NW, thanked the Commission for letting them present
their case. She stated she lives a block and a half away and her kids use the park all the time and
the park is always packed. She stated Andover is known for their parks and parks are made for
people to enjoy them, not to increase revenue.
Mr. Joseph Bush, 2586 135th Lane NW, stated he has lived there for about twelve years and the
reason he moved to Andover was because of the parks. He stated towers do not belong in parks,
they are meant for people.
Chair Butler stated one of the concerns with the residents were what other locations were looked
at. Mr. Schulz stated other locations were considered and they looked at all the applied. They
--;;;;
have a ring they work with just south to this site and this is the best spot for this. He stated it is
not an easy situation to come in and build in a park. They are doing it because it is their only
option in this area because they would lose coverage for the connecting sites.
Mr. Schulz stated they were open to designing the tower to suit the City's requirements and
would be willing to screen it. He stated they do have an anti-climb tower so kids cannot climb
on it and they would also be willing to put up a six foot fence that would be tilted so balls would
not go into the area.
Mr. Schulz stated to his knowledge there is not affect on property taxes what so ever. It is
common to see towers throughout cities now.
Chair Butler stated there was concern about electro-magnetic fields. Mr. Schulz stated they are
normally at one quarter of what one cell tower emits. He stated there is no need for fear of
exposure.
Chair Butler asked what the fall rate is on towers like this. Mr. Schulz stated this tower is a
monopole tower which is the safest tower out there and is intended to fall on itself. He stated
they will go through the same inspection and review process that any building in Andover goes
through.
Commissioner Kowalewski stated there is photo in the packet of a generator enclosed with a
wire fence opened at the top and he wondered ifthis was what they would have. Mr. Schulz
stated typically the applications they have put in are six foot fences open at the top but the
Planning Commission has requested they put a fence over the top of it so balls would roll off and
they are willing to do that.
Commissioner Kowalewski asked for clarification on the strategic investors in their company.
Mr. Schulz explained to the Commission the financial aspect of his company and noted it was a
very solid and liquid company.
Chair Butler asked ifthere were other parks besides Prairie Knoll that has antenna's. Mr. Haas
indicated Prairie Knoll Park will be the first one with an antenna.
Chair Butler stated these are not easy decisions to make and the City is facing tight financial
times and continuing to pay for maintenance for the parks is challenging for the City. Paying for
any Capital Improvements is off the table for a while so no improvements will be made. The
City Council needs to weigh the pros and cons and decide what the best course of the City is
overall. He appreciated the residents coming out and voicing their comments.
Commissioner Lindahl stated one of the things brought forth was the recreational use of the
facility itself and he thought if the tower does go in there is opportunity for another field of
people for recreation use of the cellular ofwi-fi so he thought they needed to consider that also
because the people who do not use the park would benefit from that.
:,~
Commissioner Miskowiec stated he did have a question about the location and wondered if it
could be placed closer to Bunker Lake Boulevard so it blends in better with the lights. He stated
he did not like the placement to be in the middle of the park. He was looking to the future if they
wanted to redo the park and how it would affect how the park is reconstructed. Commissioner
Lindahl did not think the park would be reconstructed because it was recently redone.
Mr. Haas stated at the stafflevel they looked at placing the tower on the north side along Bunker
Lake Boulevard between the field and it does not meet the setback requirements. They would
have to go through the variance process to do that and ifit fell it would fall outside of the
boundaries of the park.
The Commission discussed with staff alternate placement of the tower in the park.
Commissioner Van Vark stated he understood the concerns from the neighborhood about safety.
He wondered how far the City wanted to go in allowing parks to be a good place to put revenue
generated things. He wondered if it would stop once allowed.
Chair Butler stated it comes down to a question of how appropriate it is and if they are going to
allow it what would they like to see in terms ofthe location and requirements as far as how it is
built and what surrounds it in terms of vegetation and security features.
Mr. Schulz reviewed the set back requirements of the City with the Commission and how they
have followed the City Code in order to determine where the tower will work.
The Commission reviewed some alternate sites in the park. A suggestion was to place it by the
skating rink if a light could be placed on it for the rink. Mr. Schulz indicated they would be
willing to put a light on it for use for the rink and the ballfield.
Chair Butler preferred the site closer to Bunker Lake Boulevard, out ofthe center of the park and
would encourage the Commission to require that slats be placed in the fence to block the view of
the equipment and City Staff put together a recommendation for natural screening around the
fence including evergreen trees. He also asked they stick with the Planning Commissions
recommendation of using a tiered fencing structure to keep both balls and kids out of the area of
the equipment.
Commissioner Kowalewski agreed with not having it in the center ofthe park. He fully
understood a lot of the residents worry about the parks. He liked to look at this as long term for
maintenance of the park. He recommend that they try to find a location closer to the road.
Commissioner Lindahl agreed that providing there is enough space along the road to move it out
of the center of the park.
Commissioner Ramnath agreed with the screening and vegetation and agreed with also moving it
closer to Bunker Lake Boulevard if possible. He did not think this was something that could be
ignored technology wise and will happen eventually. He thought it will be a great service for the
community and a security light would be a great addition to the park.
)4
Motion by Lindahl, seconded by Ramnath, to recommend to the City Council approval to install
a wireless internet service antenna in Hidden Creek North Park with the considerations that the
Commission would like to see it closer to Bunker Lake Boulevard and that they would also get
the option to see the screening prepared for the location. Motion carried on a 5-ayes, I-nays
(Van Vark), I-absent (Hupp) vote.

SUBJECT: Consider Conditional Use PermitJRose Park/Clear Wireless LLC - Planning
DATE: February 3, 2010
INTRODUCTION
Clear Wireless LLC is seeking to locate a wireless internet antenna array at the top of a city water
tower located on this city park property. A conditional use permit is required to locate antennas
above 35 feet in height. The water tower is 140 feet tall.
DISCUSSION
The attached photo simulation illustrates what the antenna will look like from ground level. The
attached site plan shows the location of the tower within the park and the surrounding park
improvements, trees and residential homes. Additional attachments show the top and all four
side views of the tower, including the proposed antenna installation.
As with all antenna installations, some ground mounted equipment will be necessary. For this
installation a small cabinet will be located inside the base of the water tower.
Review Criteria
12-14-6 B. provides the following general criteria for granting conditional use permits:
1. In granting a Conditional Use Permit, the City Council shall consider the
advice and recommendation of the Planning Commission and:
a. The effect of the proposed use upon the health, safety, morals
and general welfare of occupants of surrounding lands.
b. Existing and anticipated traffic conditions, including parking
facilities on adjacent streets and land.
c. The effect on values of property and scenic views in the
surrounding area, and the effect of the proposed use on the
Comprehensive Plan.
City Code 9-12 provides the specific requirements for antennas and towers. The proposal meets
the height, location, design and setback requirements of City Code 9-12. The collocation
requirements of9-12-6 do not apply due to the fact that a new tower is not part of the proposal.
Additional future users would need to be evaluated on a case by case basis.
Location
This site was selected as one of five proposed antenna locations in the city to provide wireless
internet coverage to the more densely populated areas of the city.
Future Changes
It is anticipated that the water tower will be removed from the park in the next 5 to 10 years. It
will not be necessary to reconstruct a new water tower in the park. The applicant has requested
the ability to construct a monopole tower to continue to provide coverage to this area of the city
at that time. City Code 9-12-3 requires a conditional use permit amendment to review any
proposed changes.
Radio Frequency Emissions and Interference with Other Signals
The applicant will be present to address these items. Generally, studies conducted and monitored
by the United States Federal Communications Commission have found that these types of
installations do not pose a threat to humans. Additionally, the applicant is required by the FCC
to be licensed to use a specific frequency to prevent interference with other signals. The
applicant has provided documentation indicating compliance with FCC requirements.
Park and Recreation Commission Recommendation
The Commission unanimously recommended approval of the proposed conditional use permit.
They also requested an opportunity to review changes to the site when the water tower is
removed and the applicant requests approval of a new telecommunications tower.
Planning Commission Recommendation
The Commission unanimously recommended approval of the proposed conditional use permit
subject to the conditions listed in the attached resolution.
ACTION REQUESTED
The Council is asked to approve or deny the proposed conditional use permit request.

RE: Clear Wireless LLC Applications for Conditional Use Permits
To Attach Antennas to City of Andover Water Towers
Dear Andover City Council and Planning Commission:
With this letter and enclosures, Clear Wireless LLC (Clearwire) is applying for
conditional use permits to attach antennas to City of Andover water towers at 1717
Crosstown Boulevard NW (#MN-MSP304) and at 14055 Rose Street NW (#MN-
MSP422) in Andover and to locate ground equipment inside the base of these towers.
Relating to these requests, enclosed are the following:
1. Application forms for each of the sites signed by me as agent for Clearwire;
2. Two checks in the amount of $400 each for the application fee these antenna sites
(two additional checks in the amount of$130 each to cover the public notification
sign and the recording fee are forthcoming);
3. A set of plans for each of the sites consisting of small and large scale site plans
and north, east, south and west elevation plans;
4. A photograph of each of the water towers with antennas simulated on them; and
5. A letter from Radio Frequency Engineer Gyan Pandey of Clearwire addressing
interference with public safety telecommunications, service coverage in the City
of Andover and FCC emission regulation compliance. Two maps are attached
which model service coverage in the City without and with the five proposed
Andover sites activated.
Clearwire is a high speed broadband internet provider based in Kirkland, Washington
who has launched service in numerous major and minor metropolitan areas in the
country. The service is intended to serve the in-building residential and small
commercial market and as a result a dense pattern of sites spaced a little more than one
mile apart is required. Clearwire's standard antenna configuration consists three panel
antennas about four feet long by one foot wide and three microwave dish antennas 26" in
diameter. The Crosstown site has a fourth microwave dish antenna. The area surrounding
the antenna site is, for coverage purposes, divided into three sectors and panel antenna are
oriented at 30 degrees, 150 degrees and 270 degrees to serve these sectors. A small
radio and a dish antenna which serves to "network" or tie the sites together are located
next to the panel antennas. Equipment consists of a base station (43"H x 47"W x 30''0)
is located on the ground, in these cases inside the base of the towers.

SUBJECT: Consider Conditional Use Permit/1717 Crosstown Boulevard NW/Clear Wireless LLC-
Planning
DATE: February 3, 2010
INTRODUCTION
Clear Wireless, LLC is seeking to locate a wireless internet antenna at the top and sides of the
city water tower located adjacent to City Hall. A conditional use permit is required to locate
antennas above 35 feet in height. The water tower is 166 feet tall.
DISCUSSION
The attached photo simulation illustrates what the antennas will look like from ground level.
Additional attachments show the top and all four side views of the tower, including the proposed
antenna installation.
As with all antenna installations, some ground mounted equipment will be necessary. For this
installation a small cabinet will be located inside the base of the water tower.
Review Criteria
12-14-6 B. provides the following general criteria for granting conditional use permits:
1. In granting a Conditional Use Permit, the City Council shall consider the
advice and recommendation of the Planning Commission and:
a. The effect of the proposed use upon the health, safety, morals
and general welfare of occupants of surrounding lands.
b. Existing and anticipated traffic conditions, including parking
facilities on adjacent streets and land.
c. The effect on values of property and scenic views in the
surrounding area, and the effect of the proposed use on the
Comprehensive Plan.
City Code 9-12 provides the specific requirements for antennas and towers. The proposal meets
the height, location, design and setback requirements of City Code 9-12. The collocation
requirements of 9-12-6 do not apply due to the fact that a new tower is not part of the proposal.
Additional future users would need to be evaluated on a case by case basis.
Location
This site was selected as one of five proposed antenna locations in the city to provide wireless
internet coverage to the more densely populated areas of the city.
Radio Frequency Emissions and Interference with Other Signals
The applicant will be present to address these items. Generally, studies conducted and monitored
by the United States Federal Communications Commission have found that these types of
installations do not pose a threat to humans. Additionally, the applicant is required by the FCC
to be licensed to use a specific frequency to prevent interference with other signals. The
applicant has provided documentation indicating compliance with FCC requirements.
Planning Commission Recommendation
The Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval of the proposed conditional use
permit subject to the conditions listed in the attached resolution.
ACTION REOUESTED
The Council is asked to approve or deny the proposed conditional use permit.

RE: Clear Wireless LLC Applications for Conditional Use Permits
To Attach Antennas to City of Andover Water Towers
. Dear Andover City Council and Planning Commission:
With this letter and enclosures, Clear Wireless LLC (Clearwire) is applying for
conditional use permits to attach antennas to City of Andover water towers at 1717
Crosstown Boulevard NW (#MN-MSP304) and at 14055 Rose Street NW (#MN-
MSP422) in Andover and to locate ground equipment inside the base of these towers.
Relating to these requests, enclosed are the following:
1. Application forms for each of the sites signed by me as agent for Clearwire;
2. Two checks in the amount of $400 each for the application fee these antenna sites
(two additional checks in the amount of$130 each to cover the public notification
sign and the recording fee are forthcoming);
3. A set of plans for each of the sites consisting of small and large scale site plans
and north, east, south and west elevation plans;
4. A photograph of each of the water towers with antennas simulated on them; and
5. A letter from Radio Frequency Engineer Gyan Pandey ofClearwire addressing
interference with public safety telecommunications, service coverage in the City
of Andover and FCC emission regulation compliance. Two maps are attached
which model service coverage in the City without and with the five proposed
Andover sites activated.
Clearwire is a high speed broadband internet provider based in Kirkland, Washington
who has launched service in numerous major and minor metropolitan areas in the
country. The service is intended to serve the in-building residential and small
commercial market and as a result a dense pattern of sites spaced a little more than one
mile apart is required. Clearwire's standard antenna configuration consists three panel
antennas about four feet long by one foot wide and three microwave dish antennas 26" in
diameter. The Crosstown site has a fourth microwave dish antenna. The area surrounding
the antenna site is, for coverage purposes, divided into three sectors and panel antenna are
oriented at 30 degrees, 150 degrees and 270 degrees to serve these sectors. A small
radio and a dish antenna which serves to "network" or tie the sites together are located
next to the panel antennas. Equipment consists of a base station (43"H x 47"W x 30"D)
is located on the ground, in these cases inside the base of the towers.
Page 2- November 18, 2009 Letter to Andover City Council and Planning Commission
Our understanding is that the Planning Commission will consider these conditional use
permit requests at their meeting on December 8, 2009, if the City Council decides to
move ahead with these two antenna sites at its meeting on November 24. Please contact
me at 763-245-4852 or DAHag;en@Live.com if additional information is required.
Thank you.

PUBLIC HEARING: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 10-04 TO CONSIDER
TELECOMMUNICATIONS ANTENNAS FOR CLEAR WIRELESS, LLC ON CITY
WATER TOWER LOCATED AT 1717 CROSSTOWN BOULEVARD NW
Mr. Bednarz stated Clear Wireless, LLC is seeking to locate a wireless internet antenna at
the top and sides of the city water tower located adjacent to City Hall. A conditional use
permit is required to locate antenna above 35 feet in height. The water tower is 166 feet
tall.
Mr. Bednarz reviewed the information with the Commission.
Motion by Falk, seconded by Walton, to open the public hearing. Motion carried on a 6-
ayes, O-nays, I-absent (Casey) vote.
Mr. Dave Hagen stated this item is similar to the one just discussed and was available to
answer questions.
Chairperson Daninger asked if the antennas on the lower unit be painted to match the
water tower. Mr. Hagen stated they would be.
Chairperson Daninger asked why they were going to use split antennas. Mr. Hagen
stated they did want more height with the microwave dish antenna above the tower. They
needed more height with the point to point network. He stated they needed to be lower
with the coverage antennas to reach the homes and businesses that will actually use the
service.
Commissioner Falk asked if this antenna will talk to the one in the park. Mr. Hagen was
not sure but he thought it would.
Motion by Walton, seconded by Kirchoff, to close the public hearing. Motion carried on
a 6-ayes, O-nays, l-absent (Casey) vote.
Motion by Kirchoff, seconded by Walton, to make a recommendation of approval to the
City Council on the Conditional Use Permit. Motion carried on a 6ayes, O-nays, l-absent
(Casey) vote.
Mr. Bednarz stated that this item would be before the Council at the February 3, 2010
City Council meeting.
OTHER BUSINESS.
Mr. Bednarz updated the Planning Commission on related items.
