1. The Council will consider a resolution relating to the reappointment of Gary Laurant as
a public representative on the West Metro Fire-Rescue District Board of Directors for a
two-year term expiring December 31, 2016.
According to Article IV of the West Metro Fire District joint powers agreement,
the seventh member of the Board is to be appointed by the city councils of both
Crystal and New Hope. Gary Laurant has been serving in this capacity for
several years and the New Hope City Council reappointed him at its meeting
earlier this month. Recommend approval of the resolution.
2. The Council will consider the 2015 budget and proposed 2015 property tax levy and
related resolutions approving: a) the 2015 property tax levies; b) 2015 General Fund
Budget; and c) the 2015 budgets for Special Revenue, Debt Service, Capital Projects,
Enterprise, and Internal Service Funds.
The City Council held its public hearing on the 2015 budgets on December 2 and
continued action until December 16 so all 7 councilmembers could be present.
Finance Director Charles Hansen will be available to answer questions on the
2015 budgets which are essentially the same as the preliminary budgets
approved in September. The overall levy is slightly lower due to the use of some
funds from the closed Post Employment Health Benefits Fund. Recommend
approval of the resolutions approving the 2015 tax levies and budgets.
3. The Council will consider resolutions approving CIP and bonds for the Public Works
facility.
The City Council held a public hearing on the proposed CIP and issuance of
bonds for the Public Works facility at its December 2 meeting and continued
consideration to December 16 to allow all 7 members to be present for
discussion.
At its September 2 meeting, the City Council adopted Resolution #2014-68 which
authorizes the issuance of up to $13,500,000 in bonds. The City Council may
Page 2 of 5
Crystal City Council Meeting Agenda
December 16, 2014
issue either general obligation (GO) CIP bonds in any amount or lease-revenue
bonds in the amount of $13.5 million.
4. The Council will consider a resolution shifting the rear lot line between 4939 Vera Cruz
Avenue North and 4938 Welcome Avenue North 45 feet east of its present location.
The two properties at 4939 Vera Cruz and 4938 Welcome are currently owned by
the same party. The owner plans to sell the property at 4939 Vera Cruz but
would like to increase the size of the Welcome property by decreasing the size of
the Vera Cruz property. At its December 8 meeting, the Planning Commission
held a public hearing and unanimously recommended approval of the lot line
shift subject to the conditions outlined in the staff report.
5. The Council will consider a variance to reduce the rear setback requirement to allow
an addition to a nonconforming house at 4717 Florida Avenue North.
The house at 4717 Florida was built prior to the current rear yard setback
requirement, making the house a nonconforming use. The owner intends to
make significant renovations to the house which will expand the house.
Because the house is nonconforming, a variance is needed to the setback
requirement. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on December 8 on
this request and unanimously recommended approval of the variance subject to
the findings and conditions outlined in the staff report.
6. The Council will consider the 2015 and 2016 Labor Agreement with International Union
of Operating Engineers, Local 49 (Public Works).
The proposed two year contract with IUOE, Local 49 (Public Works) includes
2015 wage and insurance adjustments consistent with those of all other city
employees, represented and non-represented. The 2016 wage adjustment is
consistent with that approved in the labor agreement with LELS, Local 56 (Police
Supervisors). Recommend approval of execution of the 2015-16 Labor
Agreement with IUOE, Local 49.
7. The Council will consider a resolution amending the order of business at council
meetings.
At its December 9 work session the Council discussed changes to the regular
Council meeting agendas and the Council's order of business. Recommend
approval of the resolution making these changes.
8. The Council will consider a resolution re-appointing Anne Norris as city manager and
authorizing execution of an annual employment contract for 2015.

SUBJECT: Council Consideration of the Proposed 2015 Budget and 2015 Property
Tax Levy
Background
According to the City of Crystal's Charter and state law, the City is required to hold a
public meeting to take input on the budget and then adopt the annual budget and
property tax levy. Three resolutions that adopt the budgets and tax levy are attached.
Discussion
2015 Property Tax Levies
The General Fund levy is reduced by $100,000 from the proposed 2015 tax levy that
was adopted on September 2, 2014 Property taxes now being levied for 2015
represent a 1.04% increase from the amounts levied for taxes payable in the year 2014.
When final property tax bills reach taxpayers next year, there should be some reduction
in the city portion of the property tax compared what is shown on the Truth-in-taxation
notices that were mailed to each property owner in November.
From 2009 through 2013, residential property values were dropping faster than
apartments or commercial/industrial property. This trend has now reversed and
residential values are increasing more rapidly than commercial/industrial property.
Property taxes shift to properties that are increasing in value.
The Truth-in-taxation notices were based on the preliminary tax levy that increased the
General Fund and debt service funds by 1.83% instead of the 0.72°/o now proposed.
Many taxpayers will see increases higher than 1.83% on their Truth-in-taxation notices
due to the increased residential values.
Total Property Tax Levies
2014 2015 Chanqe Percent
General Fund $8,237,000 $8,302,000 $65,000 0.79%
Pool Bonds 209,000 209,000 0 0%
County Highway 81 Debt 563,153 563,153 0 0%
Total General & Debt 9,009,153 9,074,153 65,000 0.72%
Housing & Redevelopment 208,000 239,000 31,000 14.90%
Total All Levies $9,217,153 $9,313,153 $96,000 1.04%

General Fund
Revenues
• Property tax levy increases by $65,000 (0.79%) over the 2014 adopted tax levy
• Special assessments rose to unusually high levels in 2011 through 2013 due to
administrative citations on vacant buildings. They have returned to normal levels
• General Government Charges are reduced due to the end of the agreement with
Robbinsdale to share the services of the Forester.
• Public Safety Charges increase due to pawn shop fees.
Expenditures
• Elections decrease because there will be no general election in 2015
• Finance is higher due to the addition of an Accountant/Project Manager
• Police decreases due to employee turnover, partially offset by the addition of a
police officer
• The allocation of personnel costs between Planning & Code Enforcement,
Building Inspections and Housing Inspections was updated to reflect current
workloads.
• Engineering increases due to the resumption of the street reconstruction
• Forestry decreases due to the Forester position becoming half time.
• Operating Transfers decrease due to a$100,000 reduction in the transfer to the
Permanent Improvement Revolving Fund
S�ecial Revenue Funds
• The Anthony Shopping Center TIF district begins supporting the Home
Improvement Rebate Program
• Housing TIF District #2 has collected its last tax increments. Housing District 2
will expend its remaining assets in 2014 and 2015. The 2015 budget is reduced
from the amounts shown earlier since more expenditures than anticipated are
happening in 2014
• The Economic Development Authority returns to a normal level of activity
following the sale of the Cavanagh land
Debt Service Funds
• The tax levy for the General Obligation Street Bonds, Series 2013B will continue
for 2015. Final payment to Hennepin County is supposed to take place in
December 2014. Based on past experience, we have to assume there will be
cost overruns for the County Highway 81 project that Hennepin County bill to the
City of Crystal in 2015. Any money not paid to Hennepin County can be
redirected to other capital projects.

Capital Projects Funds
• The Major Building Replacement Fund continues the project to replace the Public
Works Facility. This is estimated to be a$13,500,000 project. Land acquisition
and initial construction happened in 2014 costing an estimated $4,300,000.
Construction will finish in 2015 with an additional cost of $9,200,000.
• The Street Maintenance Fund does neither a mill and overlay project or a seal
coat project in 2015 as the condition of the pavement and the best approach to
maintaining the pavement are evaluated.
• Reconstruction of Phase 14 streets in the North Lions Park Neighborhood.
Utilitv Funds
• Operating costs of the utility funds are for the most part increasing at about the
rate of inflation in the overall economy.
• The Water, Sewer and Storm Drainage utilities are all facing substantial capital
costs in the coming years as aging infrastructure must be rebuilt.
• Rates for the Water, Sewer, Storm Drainage and Street Light utilities all increase
to provide the cash flow necessary for the capital projects. Recycling rates are
unchanged for 2015.
Conclusion
The required public hearing was held at the December 2, 2014 City Council meeting.
Citizen input may be taken at the December 16, 2014 meeting, but another public
hearing isn't required.

CITY OF CRYSTAL
FIVE-YEAR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN
2014 THROUGH 2O19
INTRODUCTION
In 2003, the Minnesota State Legislature adopted a statute that generally exempts city and
town general obligation bonds issued under a capital improvement plan fi�om the referendum
requireinents usually required for city halls, public works, public safety facilities and
libraries. The statute on general obligation capital iinprovement plan bonds is Minnesota
Statutes, Section 475.521 (the "Act").
I1. PURPOSE
Under the Act, a capital improvement is a major expenditure of City funds for the acquisition
or betterment to public lands, buildings, or othec improvements used as a city hall, town hall,
libraiy, public safety, or public works facility, which has a useful life of five years or more.
Undec the Act, capital improve�nents do not include light rail transit or related activities,
parks, road/bridges, administcative buildings other than a city hall or town hall, or land foc
those facilities. A Capital Improvement Plan ("CIP" or "Plan") is a document designed to
anticipate capital improvement expenditures and schedule them over a five-year period so
that they may be purchased in the most efficient and cost effective method possible. A CIP
allows the matching of expenditures with anticipated income. As potential expenditures are
reviewed, the City considers the benefits, costs, alternatives and impact on operating
expenditures.
If a petition signed by voters equal to at least 5 percent of the votes cast in the last general
City election requesting a vote on the issuance of bonds is received by the municipal clerk
within 30 days after the public hearing, then the bonds may not be issued unless approved by
the voteis at an election.
The statute has established ce►�tain cr�iteria that must be considered for each project to be
undertaken pursuant to this Plan (the "Projects"). These criteria are:
Condition of the City's existing iufrastructure and projected need for repair or
r�eplacement
2. Demand for the improvement
3. Cost of the improvement
4. Availability of public resources
5. Level of overlapping debt
451010v3 MNI CR225-420
� 1 � 1 1
.
.\... ....! \ .•.. _ . .!. ■ ..
Analysis
The City has analyzed the eight points required by the Act for the Projects on an individual
basis and as a whole. The findings are as follows:
1. Conditions of CiTy Infrastructure, Including the Projected Need for Repair or
Replacement and Need for the Project
The existing facility is outdated, violates cw•rent codes and is in the flood plain. After
extensive review, it was detecmined constructing a new facility is more cost-effective than
retrofitting the current facility.
2. Likely Demand for the Project
All Public Works operatioils will be housed in the new facility.
3. Estimated Cost of the Project
The estimated cost, including architectural/engineering, contingency, legal and bonding, of
the 2014/2015 Project (the only Project for which bond authorization is requested) is set forth
in Appendix A.
4. Available Public Resources
The City has a fund balance in its Major Building Replacement Fund, and expects to expend
inoneys from this fund to pay some portion of the cost of the 2014/2015 Project.
5. Level of Overlapping Debt in the City
As of December 31, 2013, the level of overlapping debt in the City is provided in the table
below:

Hennepin Suburban Park District

The proposed Project could potentially be financed through the issuance of lease-revenue
bonds. However, both costs of issuance and overall debt service payments would be higher,
since leasea�evenue bonds are not general obligation debt and are therefor�e not as attractive to
potential purchasers. The issuance of general obligation capital improvement plan bonds
represents the most cost-efficient way to finance the proposed Projects.

451010v3 MNI CR225-420
� 1 � 1 1
.
.\... ....! \ .•.. _ . .!. ■ ..
7. Operating Costs of the Proposed Project
Operating costs are expected to be reduced with the proposed improvements. In addition,
repairs and maintenance costs are anticipated to decrease due to the new construction.
Furthermore, the City does not expect to incur the costly repairs required to keep the existing
public works facilities running. New systems will reduce operating cost and efficiency.
8. Alternatives for Providing Services Most Efficiently Through Shared Facilities with
Other Municipalities or Local Government Units
All proposed capital iinprovements are being made to consolidate existing City facilities, and
as such, there would be no greater efficiency achieved through constructing shared facilities
with other local government wlits.
IV. FINANCING THE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN
The total amount of requested expenditures under the CIP is expected not to exceed
$13,500,000. These expenditures are to be funded, in part, by the sale of the City's general
obligation capital improvement plan bonds in the maxiinuin amount of $13,500,000 in the
year 2015 for the Project listed under the 2014/2015 Expenditures.
In the financing of the CIP, two statutory limitations apply. Under Minnesota Statutes,
Chapter 475, as amended, with few exceptions, a municipality cannot incur debt in excess of
3% of the assessor's Taxable Market Value ("TMV") for the municipality. In the case of a
municipality with a population of 2,500 or less, the bonds are not subject to the net debt
limits. The City's 2010 Census population was 22,151. Therefore, the proposed general
obligation capital improvement plan bonds to be issued in the years 2014 tiv�ough 2019 would
be subject to the debt limit.
Another liinitation on bonding undec the Act is that without referendum, the total amount that
can be used for principal and interest in any one year for CIP debt cannot exceed 0.16% of
the TMV for the City. In payable year 2014, the City's TMV was $1,441,224,900.
Therefore, the total amount available to be used to pay principal and interest under this Plan
is $2,305,960 per year ($1,441,224,900 x 0.16%).
Under this CIP the City may issue up to $13,500,000 in general obligation capital
improvement plan bonds in the years 2014 through 2019 to �nance the Projects. However,
the City intends to approve the issuance of general obligation capital improvement plan bonds
in an amount that takes into account the existiilg fund balance in the Major Building
Replacement Fund, inaking a smaller bond issue likely. If the City were to issue general
obligation capital improvement bonds in the maximum principal amount of $13,500,000 for
the 2014/2015 Project, the 2015 bond issue would be repaid over• a period not to exceed thirty
(30) years pw-suant to the Act. The annual principal and interest payments would be
estimated not to exceed $1,018,382 over 20 years at a rate of 3.64% per annum.
Expected debt service on the proposed bonds for the 2014/2015 Project is within the statuto�y
limits.

Annual Review of the Capital Improvement Plan
The City Cotmcil, using the process outlined in this CIP, may review this CIP annually,
taking into account proposed expenditures, making priority decisions and seeking funding for
those expenditures it deems necessa�y for the City. If deemed appr'opriate, the City Council
will prepare an update to this CIP.

Public Works Facility Financing Questions from December 2�d Meeting
Impact on Bond Ratin�
The city was last rated by Moody's Investor's Services in July 2013 at the time bonds were sold
to finance special assessments related to the Phase 13 street reconstruction project. Moody's
rated Crystal at AA2, which is a good rating for a city of Crystal's size and characteristics.
Reasons cited for the good rating include the city's healthy cash reserves and manageable debt
burden.
A change in rating methodology in 2013 placed greater emphasis on total debt outstanding.
This was the reason Golden Valley backed out of selling bonds to finance the emergency wells.
Any of the three financing alternatives could adversely affect the city's bond rating. However,
there is no way to reliably predict if the city would retain its current rating or be downgraded.
The all cash financing option, along with paying cash for the emergency wells and other
possible projects, could reduce cash reserves to the point where Moody's would no longer see
this as a strength and result in a downgrade. Or it may not.
Bonding for the entire cost of the Public Works Facility could raise the city's total outstanding
debt to the point where Moody's would see it as a weakness and result in a downgrade. Or it
may not.
The combination of paying cash for part and bonding for part of the cost of the Public Works
Facility would affect both of the areas that Moody's has seen as Crystal's strengths, but to a
lesser extent than the all cash or all bonds options. This could result in a downgrade. Or it may
not.

Bondin� Alternatives and Interest Costs
Numerous bond alternatives have been discussed over the past year. They have included
bonding for $3,000,000 to $5,000,000 to finance part of the Public Works Facility or
$13,500,000 to finance all of it. These alternatives have included terms for the bonds of 15, 20
and 25 years.
Another alternative was requested on December 2"d. It is for a$10,000,000 bond issue with a
twenty year term with an assumed interest rate of 3%. The specific request was to know the
total interest expense for this option. Attached is an amortization table which projects a total
interest expense of $3,528,000. This is only an approximate answer since there are numerous
factors that wouldn't be known until the bond sale is final.
Interest Earned on City Investments
It was also discussed how interest earned on the City's investments could offset the interest
expense of the bonds. There seemed to be some confusion in that it sometimes sounded like
interest earnings for just the General Fund were quoted and other times interest earnings for
all funds were quoted and the two were compared to each other without understanding the
difference.
It is possible that interest earned on the cash the City could retain as a result of a bond issue
would equal or exceed the interest expense of the bond issue. I wouldn't want to count on this
happening.
One financial consideration for a bond sale now is that it would reduce the required size of any
bonds needed for a future project, when interest rates may be higher.
Conclusion
Any of the three alternatives, all cash, all bonds, or a combination can be made to work. Each
alternative has pros and cons.

Decemher 70, 2014
Anr�e Norris, City Manager (for December 16 meeting)
SUBJECT: Consider a resolutio� shifting the rear lot line between 4939 Vera
Cruz A�venue North and 4938 Welcome Avenue North 45 feet east of
its present location
A. BACKGROt1ND
The subject properties are as foElows:
• 4939 Vera Cruz Ar►enue North (09-118-21-24-0036), legally described as Lot
9, Kirkwood's First Addition to Crystal Vilkage, Hennepin County, Minnesofa,
ar�d canta�ning 10,200 sq. ft. (0.23 ac�es)
• 4938 Welcome A�enue North (09-118-21-24T0043), legally described as Lot
6, Schroeder's Addition, Hennepin County, Minnesota, containing 6,000 sq.
ft. (0.14 acres).
Both s�abject properties and adjacent properties are zoned R-1 Low Density
Residential and are improved with single family houses, The owner and
applicant, Greg and Pam Rood, live in the house at 4938 Welcome. They also
own and are pla�ning to sell the vacant house at 4939 Vera Cr�z.
The owner desires #o increase t�e size o# their 4938 Weicome praperty while
downsizing the 4939 Vera Cruz property. To that end they propose ta detach the
west 45 feet of 4939 Vera Cruz and attach E# to 4938 Welcome, which would shift
the lat line 45 feet east of its present location.
Notice o# fhe Planning Commission's December 8 public hearing was mailed to
property owners within 350 feet and published in the Sun Post on November 26.
No written comments have been received. Howe�er, ne{ghbors testified at the
hearing aba�t a number of concerr�s whicF� are addressed at the bottom of
Section B o� this report.

On December 8 the Planning CommEssion �o#ed 8-0 to recommend approval of
the lot line shift.
The following Exhibits are attached:
A. Historical aerial photos
B. 2012 aerial photo
C. Maric-up of 2012 aerial photo showing new lot line
D. Mark-up of 1988 survey of adjacent property (4945 Vera Cruz) showing
location of existir�g detached garage in relation to proposed rear lot line
E. Proposed Resolution prepared by City Attorney
STAFF COMMENTS
After the reaiignment of the rear lot iine, The parcel dime�sions would change as
fallaws:
ADDRESS
4939 Vera Cruz
4938 Welcome
CUFtRENT DIMENSIONS PROPOS�D bIMENSIONS
60 x 170 = 10,200 sq. ft. 6Q x 125 = 7,500 sq. ft.
60 x 100 = 6,000 sq. ft. 60 x 145 = 8,700 sq. ft.
4939 Vera Cruz would still conform to the minimum lot dimensions required for
the R-1 district: 60 feet wide, 100 feet deep and 7,500 sq. ft. area (all three m�st
be met). 4938 Welcome would become a conforming lot (it is currentiy
nonconforming as to lot area).
Realignment of the rear lot line would not create any nonconformities to the city's
setback, lot coverage or related zoning requirements, provided that the owner
removes the existing concrete slab located behind ihe 4939 Vera Cruz garage.
Staff recammends that this be a required condition of appro�al. The owner has
indicated that they intended to remo�e the slab anyway because of its condition,
although given the current season this will not be practical until spring 2a15.
It is important to not� that the existing utility lines will remain in their present
location along the existing rear lot line. This means they will pass through the
middle of what will be 4938 Welcome's (now larger) rear yard. While this is nat
ideal, it is also not unprecedented in an older community where lot lines c�ange
many years after private utilities are installed. Howe�er, because there is no
easement for these utility lines, staff recommends that the city require the owner
to grant a drainage & utility easemen# along t�e existing utility lines. The owner
has indicated that they would not object to this requirement.
As mentioned in Section A— Background, se�eral concerns were rais�d in
neighbor testimony at the Planning Commission's public hearing. While tfi�ese
concerns do not provide cause to deny the realignment of the lot line, staff met
on-site with the neighbors on December 9 to discuss their concerns.
PAGE 2 OF 4

.\... ....! \ .•.. _ � . .!. ■ ...
• Regarding the viability of the remaining 4939 Vera Cruz property:
It is true that the downsized 4939 Vera Cruz property will have less rear
yard than at present, and tha# it wil! be 45 feet shallower than most other
lots on that side of the street. However, its proposed dimensions of
60x125 (7,500 sq. ft.) meet the city's minimum lot size requirem�nts. After
the lot line shift, there would still be room to build a new garage somewhat
south {see ne�ct item) and as much as �4 feet west of its present locatian
and still meet the city's setback and lot coverage requirements. While
such an arrang�ment may be less than ideal, it is not unusual for a house
in Crystal to have a detached garage and driveway #ake up a much
greater share of a rear yard than presently exists at 4939 Vera Cruz.
• Regarding the langstanding encroachment of 4939 Vera Cruz's garage
approximately two feet onto the property at 4945 Vera Cruz:
The garage at 4939 Vera Cruz was built in 1952 when both 4939 and
4945 Vera Cruz were owned by the same person. The garage encroaches
as much as 1.8 feet onto the 4945 lo#. In 1989, when the owner sold the
lot at 4945 Vera Cruz, the deed included easement language allowing the
encroachmen� "so long as said garage exists". On multiple occasions over
many years, city staff have tald inquiring parties (including current and
former owners) that the encroachment is a title issue to be resolved by the
owners, includ�ng a legal proceeding in ci�il court if necessary.
Regarding the condition of the garage at 4939 Vera Cruz, and the unlawful
use of the property for parking and storage of vehicles, trailers and materials:
These are current, ongoing code enforcement cases. In September 2014
the city sent a final �xtension notice for repair or removal of the garage at
4939 Vera Cruz. The compliance date is April 30, 2015. If the garage is
not either re{�aired or demolished by that date, staff will seek a court arder
to demolish the garage and assess the proper�y for the cost. Staff
continues to take action regarding unlawful parking and storage on the
property when th�se �iolations are brought to our attention.
C. ADDITIONAL C�NDITIONS RECOMMENDED BY CITY ATTORNEY
Staff drafted the proposed lot line resolution and easement documents for review
by the City Attorney. To ensure that the realignment of the lot line occurs as
intended, an� that future title problems are not created, th� attorney
recommends that the fallowing conditions be imposed:
1. Applicant must obtain re�ease of the mortgage on the West 45 feet of 4939
Vera Cr�z. This is necessary because, after the realignmen# of tF�e lot line, in
the event of foreclosure, the west 45 feet of 4939 Vera Cruz would effectively
become a separate, landfocked parcel that wauld not be part of either 4938
Welcome or 4939 Vera Cruz.
PAGE30F4
� 1 � 1 1
. I
.\... ....! \ .•.. _ � . .!. ■ ...
2. Applicant must obtain th� cansent of lenders to Easement on 4938 Welcome.
This is necessary because, without consents, in #he e�ent of foreclosure, the
prop�rty wauld not be su�ject to �he easEment.
3. Appiicant must obtain the conseni of lenc�er to Easement on 4939 Vera Cruz.
This is necessary because, without consent, in the e�ent of foreclosure, the
property would not be subject to the easement. Note: This requ+rement would
be unnecessary if the release of martgage over the west 45 feet of 4939 Vera
Cruz (#1 above) is recorded prior to this Easement.
4. Releases, Consents and Easements must be recorded prior to the
Resolution.
5. Applicant must execute and file with the Hennepin County Taxpayer Services
the Request for Lot DivisionlCombination with a copy of the Resolution.
6. If Resolution is to be recorded in 2015, Hennepin County will require tha# all
real estate taxes payable in 2015 must be paid in full prior to recording.
7. Applicant mus# pay all costs of recording.
D. PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
At its December 8 meeting the Planning Commission �oted 8-0 to recommend
approval of the requested realigr�ment of the rear lot line between 4939 Vera
Cruz and 4938 Welcome subject to the conditions recommended by staff
(Section B abo�e).
The Council motion should include by reference the conditions in Sect�on B and
also the conditions recommended by the Ci�y Attorney in Section C.
Council action is requested.

Anne Norris, Citj► Manager (for December 16 meeting}
SIiBJECT: Consider a �ariance to reduce the rear setback requirement to ailow
an addition to a nonconforming house at 4717 Fiorida A�enue North
A. BACKGROUND
The subject property is 75 #ee# wide and 95 feet deep, with an area of 7,125 sq.
ft. It has an 83� sq. ft. house that first appe2�rs in a 1947 aerial photo or� a larger
farmstead parcel that already t�ad se�eral other buildings. By 1956 most of the
ofher buildings had beer� demalished and the farmstead subdivided into 1ots. It
was during this period that the subject property's current dimensions were
estabf�shed and the surrounding neighborhood went from farmland to nearly fully
developed.
The property and adjacent properties are zon�d R-1 Low Density Residential.
The house is set back approximately 27 fee� firom the rear lot line which
conformed to the rear setback requireme�t in effect at the time (25% of the lot
depth, or in this case 23.75 fe�t). Upon adoption of the 30 fioot rear setback in
1976, the hause became noncanforming to fhe rea� setback �equirement. The
owner desires to significantly re�ovate the house and construct a major addition
on the north side. A noncor�forming building cannot be expanded withou# a
variance. Because the house is not parallel to the rear lot line, the setback
decreases as one mo�es north. For this reason, the owner seeks a variance to
reduce the rear setback to 25 feet for the house. The owner also desires to add
a deck to th� rear of th� hot�se, which would require a �ariance reducing the
deck setback from 22 to 14 #eet.
Notice of �he Planning Commission's Decemb�r 8 public hearing was mailetl to
property owners within 350 feet and published in the Sun Post on No�ember 26.
No comments were rece�ved prior ta the hearing. The owners testified at the
hearing, as did the adJacent owner of 4720 Georgia who supported the varEance.

On December 8 the Planning Commission �oted 8-a to recommend approval of
the Variance.
The following Exhibits are a#�ached:
A. Applicant's narrative
B. Historical aerial photos
C. 2012 aerial photo
D. Existing conditions survey excerpt
E. Site plan showing proposed house after addition
F'. House plans showit�g proposed renovation and addition
B. STA�� COMMENTS
State statute�` requires �ariances ta meet all three of the foflowing criteria:
• The property ow�er proposes to us� the property in a reasonable manner not
permitted by an official control; and
� the plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to the praperty not
created by the landowner; and
• the variance, if grant�d, will not alter the essential character of the locality.
"`!n 2411 stafe law was changed io replace the `undue hardship' criferia for
variances wifh much easier-fo-meet `practica! drfficulty' criteria.
The requested variance meets all three criteria in the statute:
Construction of an addition with approximately the same setback as the
existing house is a reasonable use of the property, pro�ided that it merely
extends the existing rear wall of the house as shown in the submitted hause
plans. Construction of a deck on the rear of the house is also a reasonable
use of the property, provided that it does not extend further from the hause
than shown in the submitted house plans.
2. The property has unique circumstances due to it being platted with an
unusually shallow depth of 95 feet and rear setback of approximately 27 feet.
3. The proposed use would no# alter the essential ci�aracter of the locality
because it is an addition that would be in line with an existing, lawfully
nonconforming building, and the house closest to the deck (4720 Georgia) is
on an o�ersized lot and is unusually far from the subject praperty.
Approval is recommended based on these findings of fact.
C. PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATI4N
At its December 8 meeting the Planning Commission voted 8-0 to recommend
that the Council appro�e the requested variance to reduce the rear setback
requirement to allow an addition to a nanconforming house at 4717 Florida
A�enue North, subject to the findings ir� the staff report.
I�[�I��il�]
• � • � � , � �
.
.\... ....! \ .•.. _ .!. ■
The specific setback reductians are:
• Minimum rear setback for principal building reduced #rom 30 feet to 25 feet.
• Minimum rear setbacfc for a#tached deck reduced from 22 feet to 1�4 feet.
Co�ncil action is requested. The motion should reference the findings and
cond�tions in the staff report or include other findings and conditions speci#ically
stated by the Council.

The time limit in each step may be extended by mutual agreement of the
EMPLOYER and the UNION.
7.7 Choice of Remedy
If, as a result of the EMPLOYER response in Step 4, the grievance
remains unresolved, and if the grievance involves the suspension,

Article 7 or a procedure such as: Personnel Rules and Regulations,
Veteran's Preference, or Fair Employment. If appealed to any procedure
other than Step 5 of Article 7, the grievance is not subject to the arbitration
procedure as provided in Step 5 of Article 7. The aggrieved employee
shall indicate in writing which procedure is to be utilized--Step 5 of
Article 7 or another appeal procedure-- and shall sign a statement to the
effect that the choice of any other hearing precludes the aggrieved
employee from making a subsequent appeal through Step 5 of Article 7.
Except that with respect to statutes under the jurisdiction of the United

pursuing a statutory remedy is not precluded from also pursuing an appeal
under this grievance procedure.

Minnesota, and the signed municipality. In the event any provision of this
AGREEMENT shall be held to be contrary to law by a court of competent
jurisdiction or administrative rulings from whose final judgment or decree no

administrative regulations, such provision shall be voided. All other provisions of

New home proposal from MT Builders
FROM: John Sutter, City Planner/Assistant Community Development Director ��
DEPARTMENT HEAD REVIEW: Patrick Peters, Community Development Director
DATE:
TO:
December 10, 2014
Anne Norris, Executive Director (for December 16 EDA meeting)
SUBJECT: Consider tentative acceptance of a proposal from MT Builders for the lot at
4331 Vera Cruz Avenue North
MT Builders has submitted
$50,000. Attached are the
house plans.
a proposal to purchase the lot at 4331 Vera Cruz Avenue North for
builder's proposal form, 2012 aerial photo, and preliminary site and
The house would be custom built for a specific home buyer. It would be a two story house with
an attached two car garage accessed from the street. There may also be a detached garage
accessed from the alley, although it is unclear how soon this would be built. The preliminary
plan for the house shows a 720 sq. ft. main floor with a half bath, great room, and
kitchen/dining area. It shows a 915 sq. ft. upper floor with three bedrooms, two bathrooms and
a laundry. The house would also have an unfinished basement.
Please note that the EDA guidelines for this lot require the garage to be accessed from the
alley not the street. The builder is asking that the EDA waive this requirement because this is a
custom build situation and the homebuyer wants an attached two-car garage. Staff
recommends that the EDA waive this requirement because, unlike similar lots at 43xx Zane,
there are some other houses on this block that have curb cuts and driveways on the street.
A public hearing is required prior to consideration of a resolution approving the lot sale. The
hearing is scheduled for a special EDA meeting on January 20 and more detailed house plans
will be prepared for that meeting. If approved at that time by the EDA, then the lot sale would
close shortly thereafter and the house would be completed in summer 2014.
REQUESTED EDA ACTION: EDA approval of a motion tentatively accepting the proposal for
the EDA lot at 4331 Vera Cruz Avenue North.
