BACKGROUND
While discussions were occurring about the remodel of the police department, I had
mentioned that we were researching a bronze statue for the front of the building. As you are
well aware, Crystal Police Department has a deep, embedded philosophy of community
policing, we are truly proud of our relationship with our residents, and in particular, strive to
connect with our young people, and we want to give back to our community with this statue.
**At the work session, I will have a short PowerPoint presentation that will show various
images of statues, keep in mind, we can design the statue to what is best for our community
and police department.**
OUR ASK
The cost of this statue is $30,000. We are planning on fundraising for this statue, and have
already received donations that have been placed into a city initiatives fund. We are asking
for your approval of an agreement for us to move forward with purchasing the statue so the
artist can begin our design.
As always, please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks.

reading to the ordinance amendments for the UDC and to approve a resolution for a
summary publication of this ordinance. The first reading of the ordinance by the Council
took place on May 18, 2021.
Attachment:
A.Ordinance amending the UDC
B.Resolution approving summary ordinance
B.PROPOSED AMENDMENTS
1.Detached garages. Language has been added to clarify that a detached garage has no
structural attachment to the principal structure.
2.Front lot line. Language has been amended to use a more generic term (“principal
building”) since through lots may contain non-residential buildings.
3.Mechanical equipment. The UDC was amended in separate places to clarify the
requirements for mechanical equipment located on the ground and on rooftops:
➢A definition for mechanical equipment has been added
➢Table 4 (Accessory Uses) has been amended to allow mechanical equipment as a
permitted accessory use in every zoning district.
➢Screening requirements in section 520.13 have been amended to provide options
in making mechanical units less visible.

UDC AMENDMENTS
PAGE 2 OF 3
4. Escrow for site improvement agreements. Language has been added to clarify that the
city may retain a portion of the escrow deposit for up to two years if the approved site
plan contains native vegetation or a stormwater infiltration basin. Plantings in these
situations often take longer to become established than other landscaping, such as turf
grass.
5. Required documents for adjacent parcel land conveyance application . Language has
been amended to allow up to one year to submit the required recorded documents. If
the property has a mortgage, the property owner must secure the consent of the lender.
This change will allow lenders more time to provide the necessary documents to the
property owner.
6. Regulatory flood protection elevation. This term is used twice in the UDC. The first use
is in the definition section of the UDC (section 505) and the second use is in the body of
the floodplain requirements (section 515.09). An amendment to the definition section
was made in 2018, but the term was not amended in sectio n 515.09. This amendment
corrects that internal inconsistency.
7. Parking study. This amendment clarifies that parking studies to potentially reduce the
required number of parking spaces should include the number of proposed residents.
8. Vehicle wash or detailing. The following amendments are proposed for vehicle wash
and detailing:
➢ Since vehicle wash have drive-through elements, the requirements were
amended to require adherence to the same standards as drive-through facilities.
➢ Since drive-through facilities require a conditional use permit (CUP), Table 3
(permitted principal uses) has been amended to require a CUP for new vehicle
wash and detailing establishments.
9. Tent sales. The language for temporary tent sales has been amended:
➢ Removed an internal inconsistency in which temporary outdoor sales are allowed
for 180 days per calendar year, but tent sales were limited to a total of 21 days.
➢ Added use-specific standards to ensure that tents are maintained in good
condition
10. Measurement of building height. The amendment is to correct an internal inconsistency
between the definition of building height in the definition section of the UDC, and the
description of how height is measured in section 520.01. The correction is to use the
same language and illustration so that both sections measure height by average, not
natural, grade.
11. Exception to setback for accessory buildings. The language has been clarified to make
it easier to understand that accessory buildings can be located as close as 3’ to the
property line if certain conditions are present.
12. Fence post height. The standard fence post sold by many stores is not long enough to
meet the requirement to have an underground post that is ½ the height of the fence.
This amendment provides an alternative to ensure the fence is firmly established in the
ground.
13. Parking requirements. The following two amendments are proposed:
➢ Currently there is no specific parking requirement for vehicle repair. Staff
excluded the service bays from both the parking space need calculation and the
count of parking spaces provided. This change would add a specific requirement
to the parking table to match past practice.
➢ Clarified that three uses do not have parking maximums.
6.2
UDC AMENDMENTS

14. Stormwater plan. This amendment clarifies that the requirements of the Minnesota
Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) must be met when a stormwater plan is submitted.
This is a requirement for the city’s latest general stormwater permit from the state.
C. REQUESTED ACTION
At the May 10, 2021 Planning Commission meeting, the Commission held the public
hearing and then recommended approval of the UDC amendments by a vote of seven

MEMORANDUM
To: Crystal City Council
From: Troy Gilchrist, City Attorney
Date: May 24, 2021 (June 1, 2021 Regular Meeting)
Re: Targeted Residential Picketing Ordinance – Second Reading
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The City Council discussed a proposed targeted residential picketing ordinance at its May 4,
2021 work session and voted on a first reading at its May 18, 2021 regular meeting. The
ordinance is now before the City Council for a second reading and adoption.
As previously noted, several cities, including Vadnais Heights, Lino Lakes, Shoreview, Spring
Lake Park and others, have adopted ordinances to address picketing in residential neighborhoods
that target a particular home. The focus of the ordinance is to safeguard residential privacy and
the tranquility of the home.
As previously discussed, these ordinances have been upheld both by the U.S. Supreme Court and
the Minnesota Court of Appeals. The proposed ordinance is similar to the ordinance previously
upheld in Minnesota and that has been adopted by other communities.
The ordinance simply defines targeted residential picketing, prohibits it, and makes a violation of
the prohibition is punishable as a misdemeanor. If the City Council adopts this ordinance, it
would then need to act on the resolution approving summary language for publication. I will be
happy to answer any questions the City Council may have.

CITY CODE REGARDING TARGETED RESIDENTIAL PICKETING
The City of Crystal ordains:
ARTICLE I. Legislative Findings. The City Council of the City of Crystal finds and determines
as follows:
a. The city has an interest in safeguarding residential privacy, the wellbeing and tranquility
of the home, and protecting citizens from unwanted speech when they are a captive
audience within their homes.
b. It is in the best interests of public policy and society to promote and protect the security
and quiet enjoyment of home, free from the emotional distress and harm occasioned by
targeted picketing at private residences.
c. Targeting residential picketing also interferes with the free and unobstructed use of
residential sidewalks and public rights-of-way.
d. The opportunity provided under Minnesota Statutes, section 609.748 for a victim of
targeted residential picketing to seek a restraining order is, alone, not sufficient to protect
a person who becomes the focus of such efforts.
e. Ample opportunities exist to exercise constitutionally protected freedoms of speech and
expression without resorting to targeted residential picketing.
ARTICLE II. Definitions. Chapter IX of the Crystal city code is hereby amended by adding a new
Section 976 as follows:

2
CR205-30-714499.v2
(2) Marching, standing, or patrolling by one or more persons which prevents an
occupant of a residential building from gaining access to or exiting from the
property on which the residential building is located; or
(3) Standing, marching, patrolling or picketing by one or more persons directed
solely at a particular residential building without the consent of that building’s
occupants.
(b) “Residential building” means a building used in whole or in part as a dwelling,
including a single-family home, multiple-family unit such as an apartment, and a

within the city.
Subd. 3. Violation. Any person who engages in targeted residential picketing within the
city is guilty of a misdemeanor.
ARTICLE III. Incorporate. City staff is authorized and directed to update the table of contents
and to make such other changes as are necessary as part of incorporating the amendments adopted
by this Ordinance into the Crystal city code.
ARTICLE IV. Effective Date. This ordinance is effective upon adoption and 30 days after
publication.

Lot Sale Public Hearing
4741 Welcome Avenue North
FROM: Dan Olson, City Planner
TO: Anne Norris, Executive Director (for June 1 EDA Meeting)
DATE: May 26, 2021
RE: PUBLIC HEARING: Continue public hearing approving the sale of
4741 Welcome Avenue North for construction of a new four unit
residential building
Gernco Construction submitted a proposal to purchase the lot at 4741 Welcome
Avenue North for a new four unit residential building, and the EDA gave tentative
approval of the sale on May 4, 2021. Notice of the June 1 public hearing was published
in the Sun Post on May 20.
Gernco has not provided a detailed site plan and floor plans necessary for the EDA to
complete the public hearing and take action on the property sale. Therefore staff
requests that the public hearing be opened, any public comment be taken, and the
hearing be continued until the June 15 EDA meeting.
REQUESTED EDA ACTION: After opening the hearing and taking any public
comment, approve a motion to continue the public hearing to June 15, 2021 for the
sale of the lot at 4741 Welcome Avenue North.

SUBJECT: Consider a resolution authorizing an application to the Hennepin County
Corridor Planning program for Douglas Drive and West Broadway
The 2021 EDA Work Program included exploring the reconstruction and relocation of West
Broadway’s southerly intersection with Douglas Drive so that it lines up with the northerly
Hanson Court intersection. The proposed project would realign the existing skewed
intersection of Douglas Drive and West Broadway to a four-legged, right angle intersection.
Added benefits of the realignment include improved access to the Hanson Court business
area, upgraded existing pedestrian facilities that would meet current ADA standards and a
multi-use trail connection from Becker Park to the Canadian Pacific Railway, where a proposed
Three Rivers Park District trail would follow the CP spur south and connect to other regional
trails in Golden Valley, St. Louis Park and Edina.
This project would likely include not only the intersection realignment but also undergrounding
the existing overhead utilities, new street lighting, new sidewalk and other streetscape
improvements along West Broadway and Douglas Drive from 55th Avenue to the Canadian
Pacific Railway. The main objectives would be to improve the community’s connections to
Becker Park and the regional trail system, enhance the southern gateway into Crystal’s main
commercial area, and to facilitate and encourage private investment in the city’s Town Center
mixed-use redevelopment area.
The first step is to develop a conceptual layout and preliminary cost estimate for this project.
To that end, staff would like to apply for $45,000 from Hennepin County’s Corridor Planning
grant program, to be matched with $15,000 from the EDA professional services budget line
item in 2021 and 2022. A resolution of support from the EDA would help ensure the most
competitive application possible.
The anticipated award would occur by midsummer. If awarded, the grant would be used to hire
a design engineering firm by Sep. 30, 2021 with a goal of completing the preliminary layout
and cost estimate by spring 2022.
EDA adoption of the attached resolution is requested.

Proposed Resolution
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY OF THE CITY OF CRYSTAL
HENNEPIN COUNTY
STATE OF MINNESOTA
RESOLUTION NO. 2021-03
RESOLUTION SUPPORTING AND ENDORSING AN APPLICATION TO THE
HENNEPIN COUNTY CORRIDOR PLANNING PROGRAM
WHEREAS, the city’s Comprehensive Plan, Unified Development Code and Official Zoning Map designate the
200-acre Town Center area as a mixed-use redevelopment area which would be within a 10-minute walk from the
proposed METRO Blue Line Extension station at Bass Lake Road; and
WHEREAS, the condition and configuration of existing public improvements in the south part of the Town Center
area, in particular along Douglas Drive and West Broadway from 55th Avenue to the Canadian Pacific Railway,
limits the redevelopment potential of the area; and
WHEREAS, specific public realm elements to be considered for improvement include undergrounding utilities,
street lighting, landscaping, sidewalks, a regional trail link from Becker Park to the Canadian Pacific Railway
corridor, and realignment of the southerly Douglas Drive intersection with West Broadway and Hanson Court; and
WHEREAS, a conceptual, preliminary design and cost estimate is necessary to determine feasibility, phasing,
and necessary partnerships with other agencies; and
WHEREAS, the city’s Economic Development Authority budget does not include sufficient funding to develop the
conceptual, preliminary design and cost estimate for this work.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY OF THE CITY OF
CRYSTAL, MINNESOTA, that the application to the Hennepin County Corridor Planning program is hereby
supported and endorsed.
Adopted this 1st day of June, 2021.

SUBJECT: Potential Tax Increment Financing request for Sand Companies
development at 5240 West Broadway
Sand Companies is proposing to build an apartment building at 5240 West Broadway on a
1.75-acre site comprised of four vacant lots (5232-5256 West Broadway):
EDA STAFF REPORT
Sand Companies - 5240 West Broadway
Potential TIF Request
Page 2 of 3
Preliminary building information (subject to change as the project is refined):
58 units in a 4-story building with a basement parking garage
The units would have 1-4 bedrooms (but 70% of the units would have 2-3 bedrooms)
46 units would be affordable at 60% of area median income; 12 would be affordable at 30%
The largest source of funds would be equity from federal Low Income Housing Tax Credits
(LIHTC) which are awarded by the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency (MHFA). To be
considered for 2022 construction, Sand Companies must submit their LIHTC application to
MHFA by July 15 and the tax credit awards would be announced in late 2021.
Sand Companies estimates that the preliminary sources, uses and financing gap for this
development are as follows:
$16,456,785 Sources, including LIHTC equity but no TIF or other local assistance
$17,503,846 Uses, including $195,000 for public realm improvements along West Broadway
$ 1,047,061 Financing Gap
While preparing their application, Sand also noted that MHFA has revised its scoring to award
points for projects with local financial assistance:
Page 3 of 3
To help close the anticipated financing gap and maximize the project’s LIHTC score at MHFA,
on May 20 Sand Companies asked staff to consider a Tax Increment Financing (TIF) district,
specifically an affordable housing district. Staff asked our TIF consultant, Ehlers and
Associates, to prepare a very preliminary TIF analysis, which is attached.
TIF SCENARIOS
The maximum duration of a housing TIF district is 26 years. Based on other projects, Ehlers
suggests that a 15-year duration might be appropriate for this project. For comparison, staff
also looked at a 10-year duration:
Summary of 15-year TIF scenario:
$795,000 TIF paygo note (present value)
4.54% of the total project cost of $17,503,846, or just enough to get 8 MHFA points
There would still be a $252,000 gap the developer would need to fill
Summary of 10-year TIF scenario:
$550,000 TIF paygo note (present value)
3.14% of the total project cost of $17,503,846, or just enough to get 6 MHFA points
There would still be a $497,000 gap the developer would need to fill
Please note that the developer has not submitted a detailed proforma, but this would be
required when they submit a formal TIF application for staff, Ehlers and EDA review prior to
any city action to create a TIF district.
In the meantime, the developer needs to know whether they can include any sort of proposed
TIF in their LIHTC application to MHFA. This would need to be a resolution similar to the
attached example from the City of Plymouth in 2018. Because the LIHTC application deadline
is July 15, the June 15 meeting will be the only opportunity for the EDA to consider such a
resolution. Please note that the resolution would state a TIF amount, subject to completion of
the required steps to create a TIF district, conditioned upon the project receiving LIHTC, and
not binding upon the city even if LIHTC are awarded.
QUESTIONS FOR EDA DISCUSSION ON JUNE 1:
What are your thoughts in general about creating a TIF district to assist this project?
What general level of assistance would you support? (Please see two scenarios above.)
Are you comfortable considering a resolution on June 15? (Please see Plymouth example.)
Representatives from Sand Companies will be attending the June 1 EDA meeting virtually or
in-person to answer questions.
