Albertville City Hall 7:00 PM
PRESENT: Mayor John Olson, Councilmembers Robert Gundersen, Gary
McCormack, Keith Franklin , and John Vetsch, City Engineer Pete Carlson, City
Attorney Mike Couri, and City Administrator -Clerk Linda Goeb
Mayor Olson called the regular meeting of the Albertville City Council to
order.
The agenda was amended as follows:
• Add Item 5e(4) — Park Shelter Tables
• Add Item 5e(5) — Strategic Planning meeting
Gundersen made a motion to approve the agenda as amended. Franklin seconded the
motion. All voted aye.
The minutes of the January 18, 2000, were amended on Page 2 to indicate that
the Council requires berming in the park area of the Albertville Villas project to
separate the park from the residential lots. Franklin made a motion to approve the
minutes as amended. McCormack seconded the motion. All voted aye.
Mayor Olson asked if anyone present wished to address the Council. Bill
Dwinnel asked the Council about building a garage on a lot he may purchase in the
Greenhaven Estates Addition. The Council advised Dwinnel to meet with staff to
discuss the rules regarding accessory buildings.
Gundersen made a motion to approve payment of Check #'s 12696 — 12724 and
Check #'s 12726 - 12737 as presented. McCormack seconded the motion. All voted
aye.
Gundersen made a motion to adopt RESOLUTION #2000-6 titled A
RESOLUTION APPROVING A ONE DAY, OFF -SITE GAMBLING LICENSE
FOR THE ALBERTVILLE LIONS. McCormack seconded the motion. All voted
aye.
The Council reviewed the proposal from Safety Train, Inc., for providing safety
training, a safety walk-through and a written safety manual for the City of Albertville
at a cost of $1,223 for each of the first two years of the program. Susan Pearson,
representing Safety Train, answered several questions from the Council regarding the
ALBERTVILLE CITY COUNCIL

program. Administrator Goeb explained each department has budgeted funds for
training that will cover the cost of the program.
Franklin made a motion to accept the proposal from Safety Train, Inc. to
provide training, walk-through and safety manual for the City of Albertville at a cost
of $1,223 per year for two years. Vetsch seconded the motion. All voted aye.
The Council reviewed the planning reports and the Planning Commission's
Findings of Fact relating to the Kollville Estates. The proposed development consists
of 131 townhomes on the 22.44 acres located in the northerly part of the Sylvester
Kolles property. A CUP/PUD will be necessary to allow flexibility from the strict
provisions of the Zoning Ordinance related to setbacks and building separation.
The developer requested that if he is required to provide equipment for the two
tot lots required by the Planning Commission, that credit be given toward his park
dedication requirement for that expense. No central office is planned on the site.
Rather, an off -site management company will be hired.
The Council discussed the 20' setbacks that were approved by the Planning
Commission. The Council concurred that the building should be setback further than
the 20' minimum. The Council also asked to see a revised plat showing greater
setbacks. The developer indicated that they may be unable to redesign the plat if they
are forced to meet the 35' setback requirement.
Gundersen made a motion to request staff prepare Findings of Fact for denial of
the preliminary plat and CUP/PUD for the Council to consider at the next meeting.
McCormack seconded the motion. All voted aye.
City Engineer Pete Carlson reported that a 3' gravel shoulder was designed and
constructed on the County Road 19 project. Wright County reviewed the plans prior
to construction but did not notice that only 3' shoulders were being planned. County
State Aid Highway standards require an 8' shoulder. The shoulder must be widened to
meet the standard. Carlson did not have an estimate of the additional costs at this time,
but he will keep the Council informed.
City Attorney Couri reviewed the potential tax revenues from development of
two lots on the City -owned industrial land north of the outlet mall. It is the consensus
of the Council that the City will not have offer the property for sale and will not
authorize an appraisal of the property.

parking lot. McCormack seconded the motion. Gundersen, McCormack and Olson
voted aye. Franklin and Vetsch voted no. The motion carried.
The Council reviewed the Change Orders for the fire hall building.
Gundersen made a motion to table action on Change Order # 10 (extend water
service as required by design change at an additional cost of $2,873.15) until the
engineer/architect could provide more information at the next meeting on why the
change was made. McCormack seconded the motion. All voted aye.
Gundersen made a motion to table action on Change Order # 11 (extend
completion date by 14 days due to delayed startup at an additional cost of $1,741.02)
until more information is provided by the engineer/architect. McCormack seconded
the motion. All voted aye.

on stairs for child safety at an additional cost of $5,524.87). Olson seconded the
motion. All voted aye.

transformer from front of building to side of building at an additional cost of $734.20).

than on a committee basis to discuss joint issues and proposed a meeting date of
March 7th. The administrator will contact Otsego regarding the meeting.
The Council ordered an inventory of the number and condition of tables at the
park shelter and directed the administrator to hold park damage deposit checks for 15

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Tim Guimont, Public Works
DATE: February 18, 2000
SUBJECT: PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT REPORT
♦ Public Works We received a long list of suggestions from Susan Pearson of Safety Train,
Inc. to correct throughout the City. We have begun working on the list of items.
♦ Building I have been getting quotes for some new doors and openers for the Maintenance
Bldg. We will work on them once the Fire Department moves to the new Fire and Recreation
Bldg.
♦ Waste Water Things have been going well with John and the Treatment Plant. Ken and I
have helped him when he needed it.
♦ Parks The skating rink is still open. We have been flooding it regularly. There still has been
some vandalism to the warming house. On Saturday, February 5 the door was broken off its
hinges. I have ordered some signs for the park that say "Smile — you're being video taped" as
this has helped to stop vandalism in other cities.

RE: Albertville - Mooney Addition Final Plat
FILE NO: 163.06 — 00.03
BACKGROUND
The application before the City Council is to consider the final plat of Mooney Addition
submitted by Mooney Development Corporation. The preliminary plat of Mooney
Addition was approved by the City Council on December 6, 1999. The final plat of
Mooney Addition will result in the creation of two commercial lots located at the
northwest corner of the County Road 19 (LaBeaux Avenue) and County Road 37 (65tn
Street) intersection. A Conditional Use Permit (CUP) and Building Site Plans have
already been approved for a Holiday Station Store/car wash to be located on Lot 1. The
City has also received a CUP and Site Plan application for a Burger King fast food
franchise to be located on Lot 2.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The applicant requests approval for the final plat of Mooney Addition. The requested
approval requires that the City Council consider the application in relation to established
Subdivision Ordinance review criteria and the approved preliminary plat. The decision
to approve or deny the requested final plat is viewed as a policy decision to be made by
the City Council. In the event that the plans are found to be acceptable by the City
Council, it is recommended that the following conditions be imposed.
1. All grading, drainage, and utility plans are subject to review and approval of the City
Engineer.

2. The NSP overhead utility lines shall be relocated prior to a building permit being
issued for either Lot 1 or Lot 2.
3. The applicant enters into a development agreement with the City, indicating that the
lot owner is responsible for parking lot restoration in the event the parking lot is
disturbed as a result of utility improvements, maintenance, or repair. This
agreement shall be subject to the review and approval of the City Attorney and shall
be recorded with the property.
4. All requirements of the City Engineer regarding easement location, configuration and
size, grading and drainage and utility plans are satisfied.
5. Park dedication requirements are satisfied and a required (10) foot trail is
accommodated via construction within the right-of-way of CSAH 19, pursuant to
approval of the City Engineer and Wright County. The bituminous trail shall be
constructed to City standards and installed at the time the final layer of asphalt is laid
over other parking/site areas. Any remaining park dedication is to be paid to the City
as a cash dedication.
6. The developer shall submit a cost estimate for installation of the trail. Information
consisting of a current appraisal or recent selling price of the subject site shall be
submitted to the City for the purpose of determining the fair market value of the land
and to calculate the park dedication fees for Mooney Addition.
7. All required driveway, utility, trail and other permits required by Wright County shall
be obtained by the applicant.
8. The appropriate shared access (ingress/egress) agreements and/or easements are
provided subject to review and acceptance by the City Attorney.
9. The final plat is amended to show the location of the 66-foot, public utility easement
that exists in the right-of-way area of former 65th Street.
8. A current title opinion or commitment of title insurance shall be submitted acceptable
to the City Attorney.
9. The developer shall provide the City with a reproducible copy of the recorded final
plat, either chronoflex or its equivalent, and two (2) prints prior to issuance of a
building permit for either lot.
10. All fees associated with this project shall be paid prior to the release of the final plat
mylars to the applicant.
11. The developer shall provide financial security for all applicable site improvements,
acceptable to the City Engineer and City Attorney.
2
12. The final plat, developer's agreement and all pertinent documents must be filed with
Wright County within 120 days from the date of City Council approval of the final
plat. Failure to record the documents by June 21, 2000 will render the final plat null
and void.
13. Any other conditions of the Planning Commission, City Council, City Attorney, City
Engineer and/or other applicable agencies.
Final Plat
The final plat has been reviewed according to the requirements of the Subdivision
Ordinance and the approved preliminary plat. The primary issues associated with the
final plat concern drainage and utility easements. One of the conditions of preliminary
plat was that the developer be responsible for relocating the overhead powerline located
in the northern part of Lot 2. To assure that this condition is satisfied and to provide for
the building envelope on Lot 2, this item has been identified as a condition to be
satisfied prior to issuance of a building permit for either lot.
A second issue concerning drainage and utility easements concerns the utilities located
in the right-of-way area of former 65th Street. At the time the re -alignment of CSAH 37
was negotiated through the Darkenwald property, the City vacated 65th Street but
retained an easement for utility purposes. The City is in the process of completing the
documentation with Wright County associated with the utility easement. As a condition
of final plat, the easement area is recommended to be shown on the final plat.
A third drainage and utility issue concerns the drainage plan over Lot 2. The preliminary
plat of Mooney Addition was approved with a concept plan for a fast food restaurant on
Lot 2 and the drainage and utility easements were shown based upon the conceptual
layout. Since the time of preliminary plat approval, Burger King has submitted a specific
site plan that contemplates a different building footprint and parking lot -drive thru
arrangement. The drainage and utility easements shown on Lot 2 have been revised
from the preliminary plat to address the Burger King site plan. A secondary issue is that
the future development of Lot 2 will likely show part of the parking lot extending within
the City's drainage and utility easement. Buildings may not be constructed within utility
easements, however, driveways and parking lots may extend into easements. It is
important that there be an established agreement for Lot 2 indicating that improvements
within drainage and utility easements are at risk of the property owner. In the event the
parking lot is disturbed as a result of utility improvements, maintenance, or repair, the
restoration of the parking lot and any other improvements will be the responsibility of the
landowner. As a condition of final plat approval, it is recommended that an agreement
concerning improvements within the City drainage and utility easement be incorporated
into the development agreement and recorded with the property.
Park Dedication: The final plat shows a 10-foot trail to be constructed within the right-
of-way of CSAH 19. It is recommended that the developer install the trail at the same
3
time as the final layer of asphalt is installed for the site parking lot(s). The cost of the
trail will be credited against the park dedication requirement (10% of fair market value of
the land). It is recommended that the remaining park dedication be taken in the form of
a cash dedication.
RECOMMENDATION
The final plat of Mooney Addition is in substantial compliance with the approved
preliminary plat and as such is recommended for approval subject to the conditions
outlined herein and in the draft Findings of Fact and Decision attached as Exhibit B.
ACTION REQUESTED:
A motion to approve, deny or conditionally approve the final plat. In the event that the
City Council approves the final plat with conditions other than those identified herein,
Staff should be directed to amend the Findings of Fact and Decision accordingly.

improvement of Highways 37 and 19, DJ testified under oath before the
condemnation commissioners that he had "purchased" the car wash lot (that
area west of the stub street) consisting of 56,628 square feet from his father for
$205,000, or $3.62 per square foot. DJ also testified that he paid his father an
additional $30,000 in services in kind for the stub street land, which consisted
of 9,528 square feet, or $3.14 per square foot. This translates to an average of
$3.55 per square foot. The entire Lot 1, Block 1 consists of approximately
97,000 square feet (this is an estimate), which would equate to a value of
approximately $344,350 for the existing Lot 1, Block 1 at $3.55 per square
foot. This value may be slightly overstated since the corner lot which sold for
$3.62 per square foot is probably more valuable than the portion of the lot east
of the stub street. However, it does provide one measure of value of the
property. Park dedication under this valuation would be $34,435.
3. Appraisal valuations —Andy Savitski had recently appealed the special
assessments the City levied against his property for the Highway 19/37
improvements. Although the case ultimately settled, Savitski had an appraisal
performed on his property prior to the settlement. Savitski's appraiser valued
Lot 1, Block 1 at $296,000 (land only). Park dedication under this valuation
would be $29,600.
Savitski's attorney had originally requested that the City justify how its 10%
park dedication fee is related to the park impacts caused by the development of
Savitski's property. This would require a fairly detailed study by the City as to
how development of commercial land impacts parks and therefore justifies park
dedication fees at the 10% level. In an attempt to settle this matter before a lot of
time and expense is incurred by either side, Andy is now willing to pay 10% of the
assessed valuation, or $5,520. The Council must now determine whether it
believes that $5,520 represents 10% of the actual value of the land being platted.
If the Council believes that some other figure better reflects the actual
valuation of the property, we would seek to come to some agreement with Andy
Savitski as to the amount of park dedication which should be paid. If no
agreement can be reached, the City would likely not approve the plat for failure to
pay park dedication fees, in which case Savitski could take the matter to Court.
Once in Court, the City would likely have to demonstrate a relationship between
the platting of commercial property and the level of park dedication fees, and
demonstrate the value of the Savitski property. Ultimately, the Court would then
determine the amount of park dedication due from the platting of the property.

Dear Albertville City Council Members:
It is our understanding that the city council has voted against snow plowing the STMA Arena for certain reasons.
This is understood by our Board, however, we are still in need of snow plowing for the remainder of the winter.
We respectfully request the City of Albertville to continue with snow removal at our facility. In return, we are asking
the City to bill the arena for this service. If this agreement is acceptable, please inform us of your rate.
We would like to thank you for the fine snow plowing we recieved earlier this year, and look forward to hearing
from you. Thank you for your time in considering this proposal.

Re: Temporary signs
Dear Council Members:
Last spring I purchased a 6'x10' sign with changeable letters. I used it to inform
people that my car wash was now open. It was very effective in bringing in new
business. My daily car wash count doubled and continued to increase a few a
day.
I then received a letter from the city that I had to remove my sign because it was
not legal. Needless to say, my car count fell off drastically.
I know these signs are allowed in many other cities. You see them all the time. I
would like to request the city to review this part of its ordinance to allow a very
effective way of drawing in new business.
Please contact me with the necessary steps we need to take to allow these
signs.

Dear City of Albertville:
We are writing about the small portable sign we had up last year. We had it up for
several months and were very pleased at how well it worked.
After several months, the city sent us a letter telling us to remove it. We want the city to
allow this type of sign. Enclosed is an article from the Elk River Star News. We need to
be able to promote our businesses by using these effective signs.
Please direct this letter to the proper people so we can put our sign back up.
You may contact Cindy or myself at (612) 497-4401.
Thank you,

Elk River
Business owners say sign
ordinance is too stringent
by Jim Boyle
Staff writer
Business at Dairy Queen
booms in the summer, especial-
ly when the temperatures soar
into the 70s and 80s.
In the winter, when tempera-
tures drop into the teens and
single digits — it needs a boost.
"People seem to forget about
us on nights like this," Scott
Mitchell, the owner of the Elk
River Dairy Queen, told mem-
bers of the Elk River City
Council on a recent wintery
night.
Mitchell has found a sign out
front of his store with specials
listed on it gives his business
just the boost it needs.
Charlie Houle, owner of Houle
Oil, struggles to find applicants
for his gas station and conve-
nience store. Ahelp wanted sign
out front brings them in and
he's able to stay on top of the
employee turnover that comes
with his business.
The only problem for these
two businessmen with their
signs is the city's sign ordinance
prohibits them from using the
signs the way they would like
W. They have in the past, but
the city is enforcing the city's
temporary sign ordinance now
that it has the resources to
investigate violators. The city
has also worked with sign com-
panies to make the cities ordi-
nances clear to them so they
don't mislead their customers.
The temporary sign ordinance
limits the size of temporary
signs to 4-by-8-feet or 32-square
feet as well as the length of time
they can be up.
The matter was before the Elk
River City Council on Dec. 20,
and it now will be worked
through the Elk River Planning
Charlie Houle of Houle Oil in Elk River posts this sign to attract
help at his gas station and convenience store. An ordinance lim-
its the size of the sign and the how often it's up.
Commission starting with a
workshop in February to which
Mitchell, Houle and other busi-
ness owners will be invited to
take part in.
Michele McPherson, the direc-
tor of planning, says she is not
opposed to making some revi-
sions to the sign ordinance, but
she doesn't want the purpose of
a sign ordinance lost in the
shuffle.
The sign ordinance exists to
prevent visual blight and to pro-
tect safety concerns raised
when vision is obstructed by
signs, she said.
As the city has grown, the
number of temporary signs has
grown. With the crackdown on
the ordinance, McPherson said
the city will keep the city from
looking cluttered.
"Drive to the Wisconsin Dells
and the reason for the ordi-
nance becomes obvious,"
McPherson said, noting that
there is no sign ordinance there.
"Part of it is what do you want
your city to be remembered for
— a mess of portable signs or a
great downtown and tasteful
development?" McPherson
asked.
Safety is another reason for
the ordinance. If the city starts
allowing businesses to park
signs in rights of way, there are
going to be safety hazards for
motorists and pedestrians, not
to mention problems with signs
being in the way of utility work,
McPherson said.
City Council Member Paul
Motin agrees that its one thing
to have some signs around
town. But once you start having
a line of businesses with them
out all the time, he would start
to have a problem with it.
McPherson says it's crucial to
be consistent and to avoid hav-
ing to constantly deal with vari-
ance requests.
Mayor Stephanie Klinzing
said the city must inject com-
mon sense into the matter, and
look at variance requests when
they arise.
