8.DEPARTMENT BUSINESS
A. City Council
1). Committee Updates
Joint Power Water Board
Hendrickson reported that the board discussed replacement of the EDA water main along CSAH 19
during the road improvements in 2019. It would be from the Albertville Premium Outlets to 37th
Street NE.
Washington D.C. Lobbying Trip
Nafstad reported that Hendrickson, Cocking, and Olson attended. They had many meetings with
legislators and transportation officials regarding funding for I-94 and transportation fn general.
Nafstad stated the trip was successful and Hendrickson felt it brings heightened awareness to this
area’s need for transportation improvements.
B.Planning/Zoning
1). Samaritan Hill Lutheran Church Conditional Use Permit
Brixius reported that Samaritan Hill Lutheran Church is proposing to move into the shell building
located at 6826 Laketowne Place NE and will provide a worship area, Sunday school, offices for
family and marriage counseling, a clothing donation charity, and a pre-school programming. He
stated that a religious use is not specified as an allowed use, but assembly use is. However, under
the RLUIPA Act, religious and institutional uses cannot be treated differently than other assembly
uses.
Cocking inquired about improvements to the parking as it is in disrepair and Brixius replied that it
would be conditioned to be brought current code standards. Cocking also had concerns if there was
adequate parking, especially during worship times. Brixius stated it meets the requirements. Upon
speaking with the applicant, Brixius stated that if more than 125 persons were gathering for worship, DRAFTAgenda Page 4
City Council Meeting Minutes Page 3
Regular Meeting of October 1, 2018
their intent is to offer a second service. Vetsch had concerns about SAC/WAC fees if a second
service is added. Nafstad replied that the SAC/WAC fees already paid will be credited, but the
original use those were based on assumed a retail use, not assembly. Therefore, there will need to be
additional SAC/WAC fees needed for an assembly use and those will be calculated a specific
formula for that use.
Cocking inquired about signage and Brixius replied they would need to follow a comprehensive sign
plan. Cocking asked applicant, Randy Lowe, if they are purchasing the property and Lowe replied
they were. Vetsch inquired if additional SAC/WAC fees could be special assessed if that would help
the applicant and Nafstad replied they could.
Motioned by Cocking, seconded by Hendrickson, to Adopt Resolution Number 2018-031
approving the Conditional Use Permit to amend the Shoppes of Towne Lakes to allow
Samaritan’s Hill Lutheran Church the B-2A District at 6826 Laketowne Place NE with condition
5 stated in the resolution removed. Ayes: Hendrickson, Cocking, Olson, and Vetsch. Absent:
Hudson. MOTION DECLARED CARRIED.
2). Outdoor Storage of Recreational Vehicles
Brixius reported that no action is needed on the item tonight as Council previously directed staff that
any changes should come in late November or December; however, Brixius stated staff needs
direction on what the Council would like staff to bring then. He reported there are several options
they could look at such as narrowing the requirements or limiting the size of recreational vehicles.
They could also look at requiring additional screening of the recreational vehicles. Vetsch stated
that any screening should be earth tone in nature and not brightly colored.
Brixius reported that this topic has been highly controversial in other communities. Cocking
inquired if the city could be more restrictive than the state in what is considered a recreational
vehicle and Couri replied they could. Hendrickson would like to see any changes, if any, be in place
prior to winter. Nafstad stated staff has received numerous complaints that the two foot side yard
setback is too close for some in the community. Brixius stated if that were removed, it may not be
suitable to the community. Brixius stated it is more reasonable for recreational vehicles to be
located in the side yard rather than on grass.
Brixius stated they could amend the definitions of what is classified as a recreational vehicle; they do
not need to use the state’s definitions. Vetsch had concerns with that and felt people want to use
their property for storage of their personal vehicles. Cocking stated he isn’t opposed to moving
forward with the discussion, but also felt they are not obligated to make changes. He felt it should
have a hearing on it where concerned residents can voice their opinions and suggested that be done
through the Planning Commission. Ultimately, the Planning Commission could make their
recommendation to Council. Vetsch stated there are costs involved with any code modification.
Council briefly discussed what would happen if properties became noncompliant after any code
change.

1). Ice Arena Maintenance and Shift Supervisor Employment Offer
Nafstad reported that due to the second sheet of ice, they will need additional full-time staff. He
stated all the applications received were well qualified and they interviewed six individuals. The
position will be a City of Albertville employee, but paid for by the Arena Board budget. There will
be no impact to Albertville, St. Michael, or Arena Board budges as the position was included in the
2018/2019 arena board budget. Staff recommends Brian LeDuc for the position.
Motioned by hire Brian LeDuc for the full-time position of Ice Arena Maintenance and Shift
Supervisor. Ayes: Hendrickson, Cocking, Hudson, and Vetsch. Absent: Hudson. MOTION
DECLARED CARRIED.
2). City Administrator’s Update
Nafstad stated there would be a groundbreaking ceremony for I-94 at the outlet mall with the I-94
Coalition on October 12 at 10:00 a.m. There will also be a depot dedication on October 15 at 6:00
p.m. prior to the City Council meeting.
Nafstad gave an update on the Washington D.C. lobbying trip and stated it was very successful. He
added that a local business also traveled with the group to advocate for the transportation
improvement in the area. Vetsch felt it was very nice to have local businesses participate

any of the Council is interested in attending. Olson reported he found the conference to be beneficial
