FROM: Dan Olson, City Planner
DATE: May 11, 2017
TO: Anne Norris, City Manager (for May 16 meeting)
SUBJECT: PUBLIC HEARING: Consider adoption of a resolution approving a
vacation of a drainage and utility easement in the Gardendale
Subdivision
A. BACKGROUND
The City Council is being asked to adopt a resolution in Attachment C to vacate part of
a city-owned drainage and utility easement within the Gardendale Subdivision plat. The
easement is located at 3219 Georgia Avenue North, the proposed location of a single-
family home. SVK Development is the applicant for the easement vacation and owns
the property at 3219 Georgia.
Attachments:
A. Photo showing drainage patterns before home construction
B. Proposed revisions to drainage plan
C. Resolution
B. PROPOSED EASEMENT VACATION
In 2016 City Council approved the Gardendale Subdivision which provided a 10.5’ wide
drainage and utility easement on the south side of the lot at 3219 Georgia Avenue
North (lot 3). The easement was to be the location for a new catch basin and storm
sewer pipe that was to connect to a newly installed pipe system in Georgia Avenue .
Instead of installing the catch basin and pipe, the applicant is proposing to grade the
rear and north side yards of lots 1-4 so they drain to a recently installed stormwater pipe
northeast of lot 3.
Before the new residential lots were platted, drainage flowed to the area marked as “1”
on attachment A, which is a low area in the backyards of 3226 and 3232 Hampshire
Avenues North. The water then flowed overland to the area marked as “2”. As part of
the Gardendale development, a new stormwater system was installed in Georgia
Avenue North to reduce the need for overland flow from area 1 to 2.
COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Easement Vacation for Gardendale
Subdivision Plat
7.1
PAGE 2 OF 2
With the proposed regrading, stormwater from the rear yards of lots 1-4 will flow north,
then east along the property line between 3219 Georgia and 3226 Hampshire to the
new stormwater pipe (see attachment B). There is a 5’ wide drainage and utility
easement located on the north side of 3219 Georgia and the south side of 3226
Hampshire to accommodate this drainage pattern. Regrading of this area will improve
the flow of storm water to the pipe and reduce the amount of water that currently drains
into the backyards of 3226 and 3232 Hampshire Avenues North. On the south side of
3219 Georgia (lot 3) the oversized 10.5’ wide easement would be reduced to a standard
5’ wide easement.
City staff has been in communication with the property owner of 3226 Hampshire, as
well as the property owner at 3232 Hampshire. The regrading proposed for 3219
Georgia could be extended to those properties to improve drainage to the new outlet in
Georgia Avenue. Staff has met with the property owner at 3226 Hampshire to discuss
potential drainage improvements on their property and has provided drainage options to
the property owner at 3232 Hampshire. Both are in support of improving drainage
along the north property line to the new storm pipe.
Notice of the May 16 public hearing was published in the Sun Post on May 4, and
mailed to four utility companies: Comcast, CenterPoint Energy, Xcel Energy, and
CenturyLink. All four companies have responded by saying they have no objection to
the easement being vacated.
C. REQUESTED ACTION
City staff recommends that the drainage and utility easement on the south side of the
lot at 3219 Georgia Avenue North be partially vacated to reduce the width to 5’ with the
following condition:
1. The applicant will maximize the length and width of the drainage swale
within the existing easements along the property line between 3219
Georgia Avenue North/3220 Hampshire Avenue North and 3226
Hampshire Avenue North. This swale will capture stormwater runoff from
the south and direct it towards the new stormwater outlet in Georgia
Avenue North.
City Council motion to approve the proposed resolution (Attachment C) is requested.

from Hennepin County. In looking at the information, first thing find the lowest elevation areas. Two
main areas stand out as being the lowest areas with an elevation of around 868 feet.
These two areas are marked with an “1” and “2.” Area “2” is somewhat of a backwards L shape. It
should also be noted that the LiDAR data was collected prior to the soil being piled on the property to
surcharge the sub‐soils.
Since these two areas (“1” and “2”) have the lowest elevation, they are the areas that will hold water
first and for the longest as a result of any rainfall.

DATE: May 11, 2017
TO: Anne Norris, City Manager (for May 16 meeting)
SUBJECT: Consider adoption of a resolution approving a conditional use permit
for Randy Bickmann for a vehicle impound lot at 5425-5431 Lakeland
Avenue North
A. BACKGROUND
Randy Bickmann of Minnesota Grinding, 5400 Douglas Drive North, is proposing a
conditional use permit (CUP) to allow a vehicle impound lot at properties he owns at
5425-5431 Lakeland Avenue North. The properties are zoned Light Industrial (I-1) and
an impound lot is a conditional use within that district. Notice of the April 10 public
hearing was published in the Sun Post on March 30 and mailed to owners within 350
feet (see attachment B). This CUP request was originally submitted to the Planning
Commission concurrently with a CUP request from the same applicant for outdoor
storage on the same property (see agenda item 8.4). The Planning Commission
requested that the two CUP requests be reviewed separately.
Attachments:
A. Site location map
B. Map showing public hearing notification area for both conditional uses

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Conditional Use Permit for Vehicle
Impound Lot for Randy Bickmann
8.3
2
B. PROPOSED CONDITIONAL USE
General Information
The property at 5425 Lakeland is 43,432 SF in size and the property at 5431 Lakeland is
12,033 in size. The size of the combined lot at 5425-5431 Lakeland is 55,465 SF. The
following are the existing zoning districts and land uses surrounding these properties:
North: The property is zoned Light Industrial (I-1) – location of office
building
East – BNSF rail tracks and proposed future location of the Blue Line
extension of the light rail line; east of the rail line are properties zoned C-2
West – Property is zoned I-1 (location of Minnesota Grinding offices)
South – Property is zoned I-1 (location of Minnesota Grinding offices)
Proposed conditional use
The applicant is leasing space to Schmit Towing for a vehicle impound lot. At the
property owner’s request staff allowed this use on the property pending approval of a
CUP. Schmit Towing also has an impound lot in Fridley, in operation for some four
years. Some Planning Commission members expressed interest in the compatibility of
Schmit Towing’s operations with the city of Fridley’s community standards. Staff has
been in communication with city planning and police staff at the city, and they responded
by saying that there have not been any negative issues associated with Schmit in the city.
The only exception to this was when Schmit first opened their impound lot they parked
towed vehicles on the public street. However when staff notified them that this was not
allowed, Schmit immediately ceased parking vehicles on the street and there have been
no additional code enforcement issues.
Vehicle impound lot at 5425-5431 Lakeland Avenue North
The following are the criteria in city code section 515.53, Subd. 4 for approval of vehicle
impound lots, followed by staff’s findings to the criteria.
a). This conditional use permit allows for the storage of impounded
vehicles, including not only impounded motor vehicles but also
impounded recreational vehicles and equipment, but not including
parking or storage of vehicles or equipment for other, non-impound
purposes such as seasonal storage; and
Findings: The applicant is in agreement with these impound lot
restrictions.
b) The impound lot is located on a property that abuts the right of way
of an active freight railroad; and
8.3
3
Findings: The impound lot is adjacent to a right-of-way for an
active freight railroad.
c) The impound lot is located on a property that does not abut the
right of way of any collector or arterial street or any frontage road
adjacent to a collector or arterial street; and
Findings: The properties at 5425-5431 Lakeland Avenues
North do not abut the right-of-way of a collector or arterial
street or a frontage road adjacent to a collector or arterial
street.
d) The impound lot is located on a property that does not abut any
property zoned residential; and
Findings: The impound lot does not abut property zoned
residential.
e) The impound lot is located on a property with an area of at least 1
acre; and
Findings: The property at 5431 Lakeland, where the majority of
the impound lot is to be located, is only 12,033 in size (0.3
acres). Therefore the applicant will be required to combine the
properties at 5425 and 5431 Lakeland into one property of
55,465 SF (1.3 acres). The West Metro Fire Rescue District has
requested the properties have a Hanson Court address to
make locating the properties more intuitive. Therefore the
combined property will be addressed as 5246 Hanson Court
North.
f) The portion of the property occupied by the impound lot does not
exceed 1 acre; and
Findings: The impound lot is 25,540 SF (0.58 acres) in size.
g) The portion of the property occupied by the impound lot is fully
screened from adjacent property and public streets to the
satisfaction of the City Council; and
Findings: There is an existing chain link fence installed around
the impound lot. A condition of approval is that the applicant
will add slats for screening to this fence, unless the City
Council finds that such screening is unnecessary.
h) Vehicles shall only be parked on a designated hard surfaced area
approved by the City Council; and
8.3
4
Findings: As shown on the site plan (attachment G), the
applicant will pave the impound lot. The applicant must
receive approval from the Shingle Creek Watershed
Management Commission of an erosion control plan related to
this project.
i) Vehicles shall not be parked or stored on any non-hard-surfaced or
landscape areas on the property, nor on any adjacent property or
public right-of-way; and
Findings: The applicant is in agreement with these impound lot
restrictions.
j) The City Council determines that all applicable requirements of
Subsection 515.05, Subdivision 3 a) and Section 520 are
considered and satisfactorily met. Section 515.05: 1) Consistency
of the proposed use with the comprehensive plan; 2)
Characteristics of the subject property as they relate to the
proposed use; and 3) impact of the proposed use on the
surrounding area. Section 520 contains the requirements for a site
plan.
Findings: 1) The 2030 Comprehensive Plan land use designation
for these properties is “Industrial”, which is described as
“manufacturing, storage and some automobile-oriented
businesses”. The proposed uses are consistent with this
designation; 2) The properties and existing building are
designed for an industrial use, and the properties will continue
to exhibit these characteristics; 3) The properties have been
used for an industrial use for many years, and will continue to
be compatible with the surrounding area. Since the applicant is
not proposing to make any alterations to the building footprint,
the requirements of Section 520 of the Zoning Code, Site and
Building Plan Review, are not applicable to this application.
Notable Site Plan Elements
The following is a description of notable site plan elements:
1) Stormwater management. Stormwater management will be provided
by a new on-site infiltration basin that will connect with existing storm
sewer pipes. The basin is located to the south of the proposed
outdoor storage and impound lot. The city engineer has reviewed the
plans and confirmed that the basin complies with city code rain event
requirements. Since the infiltration basin is located on private
8.3
5
property, its maintenance will be the responsibility of the property
owner.
Some Planning Commission members expressed concern about
vehicle fluids entering the infiltration basin. Staff inquired of both the
Shingle Creek Watershed Management Commission and Bassett
Creek Watershed Management Commission for their thoughts on this
situation. Watershed staff responded to say that some fluid leakage
is expected with any use involving parking or storage of vehicles and
that no special requirements to address this issue would be needed.
The City of Fridley has not had any issues with leaking fluids for the
Schmit Towing location in that community.
2) Landscaping. Since the applicant is not requesting Site and Building
Plan Review, the applicant is not required to add additional
landscaping. However new turf will be added to the properties (see
attachment G) to meet the city’s requirement that no more than 75%
of the properties be covered with impervious surface.
3) Exterior lighting. The applicant is not proposing to add exterior
lighting to the properties.
4) Cross-access agreement. The properties at 5425-5431 Lakeland are
landlocked and do not have access to a public street. Instead they
are accessed through 5400 Douglas Drive, which is also owned by
the applicant. As a condition of approval for the outdoor storage and
impound lot, staff recommends a condition that the applicant submit a
copy of a signed agreement that provides access to 5425-5431
Lakeland for traffic, parking, and stormwater management.
C. REQUESTED ACTION
At its meeting on May 8, 2017, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the
CUP for Randy Bickmann for a vehicle impound lot by a vote of six to one (with two
members absent) subject to the following conditions of approval:
1. The vehicle impound lot shall be paved according to the site plan in
attachment G. Prior to disturbing the site for the new impervious surface, the
applicant shall:
a. Submit an erosion control plan to the Shingle Creek Watershed
Management Commission for their review and approval.
b. Sign a site improvement agreement with the city to guarantee
completion of the installation of the new impervious surface and
stormwater infiltration basin.
c. Combine the property identification numbers (PID) for 5425 and 5431
Lakeland Avenues North, using 5246 Hanson Court North as the
address for the combined properties.
d. Provide a copy of a signed agreement for traffic access, parking, and
stormwater management between 5400 Douglas Drive and 5246
Hanson Court (formerly the combined properties at 5425-5431
Lakeland Avenue).
8.3

2. Applicant shall add screening slats to the existing chain link fence around the
vehicle impound lot.
City Council motion is requested to approve the proposed resolution (Attachment H)
which approves the CUP for a vehicle impound lot for Randy Bickmann.

I. PROJECT INTRODUCTION NARRATIVE
A. EXISTING CONDITIONS
The property has been utilized for many years as a vehicle storage area for buses and
towing operators. The existing north portion of the lot is gravel surfaced. The south
portion of the lot has a building and portions of the lot is utilized for outdoor material
storage, which is utilized by the business tenant in the building. The property is
surrounded by chain link fencing and fencing with gates dividing the existing property
uses. Train tracks boarder along the east side and high density apartments are located
north of the property. Both are currently screened with vegetation that has been
established along the property lines. This screening is proposed to remain undisturbed
with these improvements. Existing property west and south of this location are utilized by
businesses in commercial and industrial manufacturing.
B. SCOPE
The proposed improvements include reconstruct the existing parking areas with pavement
surfacing and provide storm water management on property located at 5425 and 5431
Lakeland Avenue. Proposed improvements will create green space and storm water
infiltration areas to meet the City requirements for the proposed site conditions and
intended use.
C. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT
The proposed storm water facilities include grass filtration and infiltration areas, water
quality treatment and volume control measures. Excess flows are routed into the city
storm system thru an outlet pipe or overland across existing vegetation then into the City
storm system.
D. PROPOSED USE
The impound lot is proposed to occupy the existing north fenced area. The lot would be
operated similar to other impound lots in the area with hours of operation dependent on
conditions that bring vehicles into the lot. No employees are proposed to be full time at
the site. Only when vehicles are delivered or removed are employees anticipated to be
on-site. It is anticipated that approximately 130 vehicles could be stored at this location
when the lot is full.

A. BACKGROUND
Randy Bickmann of Minnesota Grinding, 5400 Douglas Drive North, is proposing a

Lakeland Avenue North. The property is zoned Light Industrial (I-1) and outdoor storage
is a conditional use within that district. Notice of the April 10 public hearing was

H. Resolution
B. PROPOSED CONDITIONAL USE
General Information
The property at 5425 Lakeland is 43,432 SF in size. The following are the existing
zoning districts and land uses surrounding this property:
COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Conditional Use Permit for Outdoor
Storage for Randy Bickmann
8.4

North: The property is zoned Light Industrial (I-1) – location of office
building
East – BNSF rail tracks and proposed future location of the Blue Line
extension of the light rail line; east of the rail line are properties zoned C-2
West – Property is zoned I-1 (location of Minnesota Grinding offices)
South – Property is zoned I-1 (location of Minnesota Grinding offices)
Proposed conditional use
The applicant is leasing space to New Look Concrete who would like a CUP for outdoor
storage. At the property owner’s request sta ff allowed this use on the property pending
approval of a CUP.
Outdoor storage at 5425 Lakeland Avenue North
New Look Concrete is leasing space from Minnesota Grinding within the
existing 4,560 square foot building. New Look is a company specializing in
installing products such as concrete and granite, and they are proposing an
outdoor storage area that is 2,380 SF in size on the north side of the building.
The items stored in this area are smaller trailers (see attachment E). No
parking spaces will be lost as a result of the new outdoor storage area. The
following are the criteria in city code section 515.53, Subd. 4 for approval of
outdoor storage areas, followed by staff’s findings to the criteria.
a) The storage area is hard surfaced and clearly designated on the site as
being limited to the specific, approved area.
Findings: The storage area will comply because the applicant is
proposing a hard surface.
b) The storage area does not exceed 60% of the gross floor area of the
building, 40% of the area of the property, or 20,000 square feet,
whichever is less.
Findings: New Look is proposing a 2,380 SF outdoor storage area.
The maximum size of the area is calculated as follows:
Gross floor area of the building: 4,560 SF x 60% = 2,736 SF
Property area: 43,337 SF x 40% = 17,335 SF
Since the lowest calculation is 2,736 SF, that is the maximum size of
the outdoor sales area. The proposed 2,380 SF outdoor storage area
would comply.
c) The items to be stored outdoors are typically found outdoors and are
constructed of materials appropriate for outdoor weather conditions.
8.4
3
Findings: The materials that New Look proposes to store outdoors
are hardy enough to withstand outdoor weather conditions.
d) The city council finds that there will be adequate screening and buffering
between the establishment and adjacent uses.
Findings: The outdoor trailers will be screened from view from
Douglas Drive and Hanson Court by the Minnesota Grinding
buildings.
Notable Site Plan Elements - The following is a description of notable site plan
elements:
1) Stormwater management. Stormwater management will be provided
by a new on-site infiltration basin that will connect with existing storm
sewer pipes. The basin is located to the south of the proposed
outdoor storage. The city engineer has reviewed the plans and
confirmed that the basin complies with city code rain event
requirements. Since the infiltration basin is located on private
property, its maintenance will be the responsibility of the property
owner.
In the event that the City Council denies the CUP for the vehicle
impound lot (item 4b on the May 8, 2017 Planning Commission
agenda), the applicant may submit a revised site plan to pave only the
outdoor storage area, but the infiltration basin must be constructed to
provide stormwater management for a large impervious area.
2) Landscaping. Since the applicant is not requesting Site and Building
Plan Review, the applicant is not required to add additional
landscaping. However new turf will be added to the properties (see
attachment G) to meet the city’s requirement that no more than 75%
of the properties be covered with impervious surface.
3) Exterior lighting. The applicant is not proposing to add exterior
lighting to the properties.
4) Cross-access agreement. The property at 5425 Lakeland is
landlocked and does not have access to a public street. Instead it is
accessed through 5400 Douglas Drive, which is also owned by the
applicant. As a condition of approval for the outdoor storage, staff
recommends that the applicant submit a copy of a signed agreement
that provides access to 5425 Lakeland for traffic, parking, and
stormwater management.
8.4
4
C. REQUESTED ACTION
At its meeting on May 8, 2017, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the
CUP for Randy Bickmann for outdoor storage by a vote of seven to zero (with two
members absent) subject to the following conditions of approval:
1. The outdoor storage area shall be paved according to the site plan in
attachment G. Prior to disturbing the site for the new impervious surface, the
applicant shall:
a. Submit an erosion control plan to the Shingle Creek Watershed
Management Commission for their review and approval.
b. Sign a site improvement agreement with the city to guarantee
completion of the installation of the new impervious surface and
stormwater infiltration basin.
c. Provide a copy of a signed agreement for traffic access, parking, and
stormwater management between 5400 Douglas Drive and 5246
Hanson Court (formerly the combined properties at 5425-5431
Lakeland Avenue North).
2. If the City Council denies the CUP for the vehicle impound lot, the applicant
may submit a revised site plan (attachment G) to show paving of the outdoor
storage area and the construction of the stormwater infiltration basin.
City Council motion is requested to approve the proposed resolution (Attachment H)
which approves the CUP for outdoor storage for Randy Bickmann.

D. PROPOSED USE
The area located north of the existing building is where outdoor storage is proposed. The
storage mainly consists of enclosed trailers which are utilized by the business tenant as
they conduct their business activities around the metro area and Minnesota region. It is
anticipated that up to 7 trailers could be stored at this location for short durations between
projects and while loading in preparation for upcoming projects. Screening will utilize
the existing vegetation that currently screens the property and remain undisturbed during
the site improvements.

DATE: May 16, 2017
TO: City Council
FROM: Mark Ray, PE, Director of Public Works
Brad Fortin, Parks and Facilities Superintendent
SUBJECT: Old utilities building roof replacement
Background
The 2017 PIR includes funds for replacing the old utilities building roof. BU# 6228 has $90,000
allocated for the utilities roof replacement. The existing roof is in need of replacement and has
both structural and drainage concerns.
The City solicited two quotes from established roofing companies for this work. These were the
same companies that provided quotes for the pool roof building and are well established in the
roofing industry.
Old utilities building
• Central Roofing Company $36,990.00
• Berwald Roofing Inc. $72,711.00
Because additional issues can be found as part of roof replacement, the quote includes a line
item for unforeseen structural damage, repaired at $10.50 per foot. Any unforeseen insulation
replacement will be repaired at $0.99 per foot. In addition, any roof ballast pavers that are
damaged will be replaced at $50.00 each.
The replacement of the roof will occur late spring or early summer of 2017. Staff will trim trees
around the complex prior to roofing. While there is a large price difference, in discussions with
the contractors this has more to do with their current workload than other potential factors.
Berwald was the low quote for the pool roof.
Attachment
• Central Roofing Company proposal
Recommended Action
Motion to approve the resolution authorizing the replacement of the old utilities building roof
by Central Roofing Company.

TO: Anne Norris, City Manager (for May 16 EDA special meeting)
SUBJECT: Consider next steps for the 4-plex at 5900 56 th
(item continued from April 26, 2017 special meeting)
At a special meeting on April 10 the EDA authorized acquisition of the 4-plex at 5900 56 th
Avenue North (Bass Lake Road) for a purchase price of$295,000. The closing occurred on
May 9 and the EDA now owns the property.
For background, please see the attached slideshow from the April 26 meeting. At that
meeting, discussion was continued to a subsequent meeting (May 16).
On May 16 staff will present detailed information on the following options:
A. Demolition ASAP:
• Tenants would be relocated
• Small-scale redevelopment such as three single family lots or a small office building
is a near-term option
• Large-scale redevelopment would be possible with voluntary acquisition of 2 or 3
additional properties (resulting in 1 acre and 2 acre sites)
B. Hold for the time being to find partner for rehab project:
• Negotiate deal with an affordable housing developer/operator
• Could also include some EDA land to the west for new parking lot/garages
• No relocation of tenants now, but may ultimately be necessary for rehab work
C. Re-sell ASAP on open market with minimal investment by EDA:
• Repave and reconfigure parking lot to eliminate head-in parking
• Remove trash enclosure (switch to regular residential-style cans)
• No relocation of tenants
After the staff presentation on May 16 the EDA will be asked to provide additional direction.
