7-22-91 agenda~A CITY OF RICHFIELD, MINNESOTA Council Letter No.~186 Agenda July 22, 1991 Issue Statement• Award of contract for the demolition of 7600 & 7645 Emerson Avenue. Background• 5600,000 of Municipal State Aid (MSA) funds are identified in the 1991 Capital Improvement Budget for street improvements to the Interstate/Lyndale/Nicollet (ILN) area. Included in the street improvements is purchase and disposal of houses north of 77th Street. The bid award under consideration is for demolition of the two houses at 7600 and 7645 Emerson. It is not economical to repair the houses and rent or move them; in fact they are a nuisance. A special asbestos survey was performed to assure that any hazards from asbestos in the building are properly addressed. Prior to demolition, notice will be sent to the neighbors. Demolition of these houses will be funded from MSA. A formal bid opening was held on Wednesday, July 10, 1991 with the following results: F.F. Jedlicki, Inc. 523,600 Carl Bolander & Sons Co. 24,900 Recommended Motion: Accept the bid minutes/tabulation and award a contract in the sum of $23,600 for the demolition of 7600 and 7645 Emerson to F.F. Jedlicki, Inc. Award of bid will be subject to MSA approval. Basis of Recommendation: 1. F.F. Jedlicki submitted the low bid, and they are a reputable contractor. 2. The engineer's estimate on this project was 525,000, so Jedlicki is well within the cost range for this project. 3. Staff is in the process of receiving formal MSA approval for this project. Alternative Recommendation: Council could reject the bids and instruct staff to re-bid; however, staff does not believe we can obtain a better price for this work. Discussion/Decision Mode: Staff is asking for approval at the July 22, 1991 Council meeting, since the bids are only good until August 10, 1991.

Ferber City Clerk 38 CITY OF RICHFIELD, MINNESOTA Council Letter No. ~g7 Agenda July 22, 1991 Issue Statement• Purchase of air•compressor in excess of $5,000. Background• The City Council policy resolution on purchasing provides that when the purchase of merchandise, materials, equipment or construction exceeds the amount of $5,000, authority to purchase shall be submitted to the City Council for consideration. The central garage motor pool has two existing air compressors. This equipment is used to blow out irrigation lines, for jackhammering, street crack, repair, sandblasting paint off hydrants, and other jobs within the maintenance divisions. There is enough work to keep the two machines in almost constant use. The newest compressor is approximately nine years old. The oldest compressor is approximately 30 years old and was scheduled to be replaced in 1992. The compressor had been rebuilt and the extended replacement date was set for 1992. However, the compressor did not last the extended period of time and now blows oil with the air so is unusable to jobs such as painting and work on irrigation. Increased emphasis and work on street crack sealing also necessitates a need for this machine. This work will continue to increase for the foreseeable future. As an alternative means of providing for the air compressor needs during 1991, staff investigated rental prices. Rates were generally $1,000 per month. Staff estimated a minimum need of three months rental. Compared to the of purchasing a machine, the limited rental would mean the machine would not always be available and the cost for three months would be approximately one-third the cost of owning a machine which would be available for many years. Staff received three quotations for purchase of a new compressor: Aspen Equipment Company $10,350.00 Ruffridge-Johnson Equipment Co. 10,797.42 Hayden-Murphy Equipment Co. 11,068.00 Recommended Motion: Approve a purchase order to Aspen Equipment Company for the purchase of a new air compressor in the sum of $10,350. Basis of Recommendation: 1. Aspen Equipment Company submitted the lowest quotation. 2. This piece of equipment is a vital part of many aspects for the maintenance divisions. ~~- i 3. Adequate funds are available in the central garage fund for this purchase. Alternative Recommendation: 1. Council could reject the quotations and instruct staff to obtain new quotations; however, staff does not believe we could obtain a better price for this piece of equipment. 2. Council could direct staff to rent an air compressor for 1991 uses and retain the 1992 replacement date of the City's current machine. However, it is the opinion of staff this option is not economically prudent nor it is efficient in terms of work projects to be done. 3. Council could direct staff to not replace the air compressor in 1991 through either purchase or rental. This would mean that certain work projects related to street maintenance, hydrants and irrigation systems would not be done in 1991. Discussion/Decision Mode: This item is scheduled for the Staff is requesting approval at July 22, 1991 Council meeting. this time. Respec fu submitted, James rosser City M ger JDP:ds ~~ CITY OF RICHFIELD, MINNESOTA Council Letter No. 188 Agenda July 22, 1991 Issue Statement: Purchase in excess of $5,000 for removal, repair and installation of deep well pump #4. Background: The City Council policy resolution on purchasing provides that when the purchase of merchandise, materials, equipment or construction exceeds the amount of $5,000, authority to purchase shall be submitted to the City Council for consideration. The current pump in Well #4, which was installed in 1985, has developed a hole in the column and is pumping approximately 1,200 gallons of water per minute (GPM) of the total 2,000 GPM pumping capability. The well is located at 6401 Oakland Avenue. The hole developed as part of the normal wearing process. Five contractors were contacted and proposals were received for the replacement of pump #4 as follow: Keys Well Drilling Company $11,225.00 E.H. Renner and Sons 11,546.65 Layne Minnesota 13,286.00 McCarthy Well Company 13,598.00 Bergerson-Caswell Incorporated 13,771.00 Recommended Motion: Approve a purchase order to Keys Well Drilling Company for removal, repair and installation of the deep well pump #4 at 6401 Oakland Avenue for an estimated total price of $11,225. Basis of Recommendation: 1. The current pump was installed in 1985 and is in need of repair. The necessary repairs will allow for better pumping capacity, approximately 800 gallons more per minute. 2. Keys Well Drilling Company submitted the lowest quotation, and is a reputable contractor who has performed satisfactorily on previous projects for the City. 3. If the repair is delayed there is an increased risk of the pump dropping to the bottom of the well. 4. The 1991 adopted water maintenance budget contains monies for this repair. Alternative Recommendation: Council may choose not to accept any of the quotations and instruct staff to obtain new quotes; however, staff does not believe better prices can be obtained at this time. 3~- ~ Discussion/Decision Mode: This item is scheduled for the July 22, 1991 City Council meeting. Staff is requesting approval at this time in order to facilitate the repair work.

Background• At the July 1 Council study session, staff was directed by Council to draft a policy which would limit the number of animals to six, over the age of six months, that may be kept at a property licensed as a residential kennel. A number o£ options were explored by the City Council at their July 1 study session and it was determined to limit the number of animals that a resident may have at a residential kennel. This action became necessary as a result of increased neighborhood complaints from residents concerning properties licensed in their neighborhoods as residential kennels. In most instances, their complaints related to the number of animals being kept on the property. Current records indicate there is only one approved residential kennel license that has more than six animals. This resident will be allowed to keep all those animals but may not replace them with new ones in excess of six as they are sold, lost, given away or expire. Recommended Motion: Approve a resolution to be adopted as Council policy that would limit the number of animals to six, over the age of six months, that may be kept at a property that is licensed as a residential kennel. Basis for Recommendation: 1. In a City the size of Richfield, with homes so closely located to one another, that more than six animals at any one property would be likely to have an adverse effect on neighboring residents. Alternative Recommendation: 1. Do not approve .the resolution limiting the number of animals to six, over the age of six months, at a property licensed as a residential kennel. This would mean that residents could have an unlimited number of animals on their property. Discussion/Decision Mode: The resolution is presented for council consideration at this time. Re a lly submitted, Jam Prosser City anager JDP:ds ~D- i RESOLUTION N0. RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING THE MAXIMUM NUMBER OF ANIMALS WHICH MAY BE KEPT PURSUANT TO A RESIDENTIAL KENNEL LICENSE WHEREAS, Subsection 905.31 of the Ordinance Code requires that persons desiring to keep more than two dogs or two cats on residential property must first obtain a residential kennel license; and WHEREAS, while the keeping of such numbers of animals may be importance to the occupants on the property, the Council believes that reasonable limitations must be placed upon the maximum number of animals so as to minimize adverse health and safety considerations, and to assure that neighbors may receive the full enjoyment of their property; and WHEREAS, the Council believes that it is necessary and appropriate that such a maximum number be established, and has received the recommendations of City staff with respect to such number. NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the City Council of the City of Richfield that no residential kennel license will henceforth be issued or renewed if there are kept on the premises more than six animals over six months of age which are subject to the residential kennel license provisions of the Ordinance Code. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that with respect to any residential kennel license hereafter issued or renewed, such license shall be subject to revocation if, during the term of the license, more than six such animals are kept on the licensed premises. A copy of this resolution shall be furnished to all applicants for residential kennel license. ATTEST: Martin J. Kirsch Mayor Thomas P.

The RALF would provide. a no interest loan to the City for the purchase of 7645 Wentworth Avenue. The loan would be repaid when financing for the 77th Street project is provided. RALF is designed to provide funds to cities to purchase homes when it can be determined that continued ownership would be a hardship for the current owner. Recently, the Metropolitan Council and its System Committee gave preliminary approval for the use of RALF to purchase this property. As part of the final application process, the regulations require MNDOT to review the appraisal report. MNDOT is completing its review and is expected to authorize purchase at $79,000. It is anticipated that relocation benefits may approximate $17,000. The RALF loan may include all costs related to the purchase. In addition to acquisition and relocation expenses, appraisal report and staff time may be included. The total amount of the loan for this property may approximate $100,000. Recommended Motion: Adopt the attached resolution which authorizes the following: 1. Sets just compensation and authorizes staff to negotiate and purchase the property at the value indicated. 2. Directs the City Manager and Mayor to execute a purchase agreement in the amount of just compensation. 3.

Such proposed assessment roll in the total amount of $7,762.52, is hereby accepted and shall constitute the special assessment against the lands named therein, and each tract of land therein included is hereby found to be benefited by the proposed current services in the amount of assessment levied against it. 2. Such assessment shall be payable before or during 1991 and shall bear interest at the rate of eight percent from the date of adoption of this assessment resolution. 3. The owner of any property so assessed may, at any time prior to certification of the assessment to the county auditor, pay the whole of the assessment on such property to the city's Assessing Division and he may, at any time thereafter, pay to the city's Assessing Division the entire amount of the assessment remaining unpaid, with interest accrued to December 31 of the year in which payment is made. Such payment must be made before November 15 or interest will be charged through December 31 of the succeeding year. 4. The City Clerk shall forthwith transmit a certified duplicate of this assessment roll to the county auditor to be extended on the proper tax lists of the county and such assessment shall be collected and paid over in the same manner as other municipal taxes.

Ferber City Clerk CITY OF RICHFIELD, MINNESOTA Council Letter No. 202 Agenda July 22, 1991 Issue Statement: Public hearing on adoption of the assessment roll for removal of diseased trees from private property for the period January 1, 1990 through December 31, 1990. Background: The City Council has scheduled a hearing to be held on Monday, July 22, 1991, for the assessment of the cost for removal of diseased trees from private property during the period of January 1, 1990 through December 31, 1990. City staff has calculated the proper amounts to be assessed against every assessable lot, piece or parcel of land specially benefited. The proposed assessment was properly filed with the City Clerk, notice was duly published and notices were mailed to the owner of each parcel described in the assessment roll. The cost of diseased tree removal from private property for this period totaled $23,123.43. City ordinance provides that special assessments for current services may be certified to the County Auditor for collection along with taxes. This certification may provide that the assessment be completely paid in the first year or in annual installments. It is the staff recommendation that such payments be due and payable over a three year period. The adopted assessment roll for the period January 1, 1990 through December 31, 1990 would be certified with the county auditor by October 10, 1991. The City has the right to charge interest on the amount assessed in that the City provided the funds for the initial expense. It is the staff recommendation that the interest rate be established at eight percent, the maximum allowed by State Law. Payment may be made by the assessed owner before November 15, 1991 in order to avoid interest payments. Payments made after that date would include the interest payment. City staff will be available at the hearing to answer questions about the special assessment that may not have been raised prior to the hearing. The public hearing provides an opportunity for all interested persons to present their objections, if any, to such proposed assessment. Recommendation: Following the public hearing, approve the attached resolution adopting the assessment for removal of diseased trees from private property for the period of January 1, 1990 through December 31, 1990. It is further recommended that such payments be due and payable over a three-year period. Basis of Recommendation: 1. Each affected property owner has been notified of the proposed assessment as required by law. -~- i 2. Notice of the assessment has been published in the official City newspaper as required by State Statute. Alternate Recommendation: None. Discussion/Decision Mode: Council may make any changes deemed necessary in the assessment roll as a result of the hearing by adding the phrase, "and has amended such proposed assessment as it deems just."

Ferber City Clerk U CITY OF RICHFIELD, MINNESOTA Council Letter No. 203 Agenda July 22, 1991 Issue Statement: Public hearing to consider specially assessing current maintenance services for City alleys for the period of January 1 through December 31, 1992, City Project No. 872. Background: On June 10, 1991, the City Council scheduled a public hearing for July 22, 1991 concerning the 1992 alley maintenance project. In order to implement the alley maintenance policies previously passed by the City Council, it is necessary for the Council to initiate this specific alley maintenance project. The maintenance functions to be financed through special assessments include such work as rough grading, cleaning and sweeping, cold patching and snow plowing. Because the vast majority of alleys have now been paved, the primary maintenance function is anticipated to be snow plowing. Some of the alleys resurfaced in the early 1980's have also reached the time when concrete joint sealing needs to be done. Community Services Department personnel estimate the cost of this project for the period January 1 through December 31, 1992 to be $20,000. The amount of special assessment could vary according to the amount of work necessary on each individual alley. The costs for the repair of an alley will be charged to the property owners abutting the alley. 57.50 per average fifty foot lot is the estimate for sweeping and a normal winter of snow plowing. $3.25 per average fifty foot lot is an estimate of the costs to continue a concrete joint sealing maintenance program on a paved alley as a part of routine maintenance. Estimates of additional costs on those alleys not of concrete has been about $23 per average fifty foot lot. Costs have varied depending on the amount of patching required in a particular alley. For comparison purposes, the following is provided related to alley maintenance special assessment for current services: 1985 Actual 515,141.97 1986 Estimated $23,600 1986 Actual $11,834.29 1987 Estimated $ 7,000 1987 Actual $ 9,977.18 1988 Estimated $17,000 1988 Actual $ 8,453.93 1989 Estimated $20,000 1989 Actual $17,725,98 1990 Estimated $20,000 1990 Actual $17,213.95 1991 Estimated $20,000 $~1 Recommended Motion: Following the close of the public hearing, adopt the attached resolution ordering City Project No. 872, 1992 Alley Maintenance project and special assessment of current services. Basis of Recommendation: 1. Notice of the proposed assessment was published in the official City newspaper. 2. Each property owner within the area proposed to be assessed was mailed a notice as required by State law. 3. It has been the Council policy for ten years to assess for alley maintenance. Alternative Recommendation: None. Discussion/Decision Mode: The current alley maintenance project will lapse at the end of the year. Anew project should be established by January 1, 1992 so the Council may defer the decision to a future meeting before the end of the year if desired. Respe fully submitted, Ja s D.

Background: The City Council has scheduled a public hearing for July 22, 1991 to consider the establishment of a special assessment district for current maintenance service costs in the ILN redevelopment area, that area approximately bounded by Lyndale Avenue, the railroad tracks, 77th Street and 78th Street including that property known as Hennepin County Property Identification Number 34-028-24-33-0073. Notice of this public hearing was mailed to all owners of multiple residential and commercial property in the area and published in the official newspaper as required by law. The higher level of maintenance proposed to be provided in the area includes landscape maintenance of common properties through tree trimming, mowing, fertilizing and edging; irrigation maintenance; painting and repair of wood furniture; trash removal and general maintenance through repair and replacement of lights, sidewalks, curbs, furniture and plantings; and performance of other specialized maintenance functions. These items are extra services provided directly to the ILN project area and do not include services provided to the entire City. The estimated maintenance cost for the period January 1 through December 31, 1992 is $7514. All multiple residential and commercial properties would be assessed on the basis of area, with each square foot of assessable property to be assessed equally, for the costs incurred in the maintenance of common areas.

Notice of proposed assessment has been published in the official newspaper. 2. Each affected property owner has been notified of the proposed assessment. 3. Continued maintenance service for this area is recommended in order to sustain the current standards for landscaping and maintenance which have been successful over the past years in another redevelopment area. Alternative Recommendation: 1. Council may choose to establish a set rate and limit the maintenance performed to that dollar amount. However, due to variables such as weather and accidents, staff believes the redevelopment area could suffer if maintenance were to be limited. 2. Council may choose to have individual property owners perform maintenance of the common areas. This may, however, involve the City to a great extent to work out the details of the maintenance program.

Kirsch Mayor ATTEST: Thomas P. Ferber City Clerk CITY OF RICHFIELD, MINNESOTA Council Letter No. 206 Agenda July 22, 1991 Issue Statement: Request to reinstate a variance that was granted in 1989 at 6400 Vincent Avenue. Background On July 5,•1989, the Richfield Hearing Examiner granted a variance at 6400 Vincent Avenue to allow construction of a new home with a lot coverage of 31.7 percent. This 10,508 square foot corner lot is allowed a maximum lot coverage of up to 25 percent without a variance. Richard Ziemer, the applicant, requested the variance in order to build a home with the majority of floor space on the main level to accommodate his physically disabled wife. Mr. Ziemer states that he was not aware of the zoning provision that a variance expires if the structure requiring the variance is not completed within one year of the date the variance was granted. Recommended Motion: Approve the request to reinstate the variance at 6400 Vincent Avenue. Basis for Recommendation: 1. The plans have been slightly modified, reducing the total square footage of the home by completely eliminating the second story. The basic footprint of the structure remains the same. 2. The City Council has previously requested that the staff minimize, to the extent possible, any formality type reviews. Reinstatement of this previously approved variance would save the applicant time and money, because he would not have to apply for a new variance. 3. If reinstated, the variance would expire on July 22, 1992 unless the home is completed by that time. Alternative Recommendation: Deny the reinstatement of the variance if the Council feels that the applicant should apply for a new variance. Discussion/Decision Mode: Consideration of this item is scheduled on the consent calendar of the July 22 , 1991 City Council meeting. Re a ully submitted, Jam D. Prosser Cit anager JDP:ds July 2, 1991 Richfield City Council ;700 Portland Ave. S. Richfield, MN 55423 RE: RICHARD & MARLENE ZIEMER VARIANCE CASE #89-V-2 FOR 6400 VINCENT AVE. S. Dear Ladies and Gentlemen of the Council: I am writing to request the above captioned subject be .placed on the agenda for the next meeting of the Council for consideration of extension of the variance that was granted. The variance is simply for more square foot lot coverage than is standard, but within the regular set-back requirements. When the variance was originally granted on 7-5-89, there was no mention in the written decision or in any other way that there .was a one year time limit for completion of construction in the code. In fact, a copy of that part of the code we were- given by the City, which purported to be all the information we needed, did not contain that piece of information, because it is in an obscure part of the code completely separated from the rest of similar provisions. We were under the impression the variance was permanent. ',s it turned out, our architect was extremely inaccurate regarding the .:ost of his design, which we only learned after several months seeking bids and finding costs nearly double. .Since that.-time, it has been very time-consuming to find a redesign within the proper cost frame. This was finally accomplished recently and in making preliminary in- quiries regarding the building permit, we learned of this time limit problem. In discussing the matter with-.the Planning Dept., it was determined that the Council has the power to extend that variance, which is what we are requesting. Since nothing has changed since the original variance was granted, and this will be a considerable improvement for the neighborhood and had a strong recommendation from the hearing examiner and has the backing of the Planning Dept., we trust you will find the extension in order. Of course,-the design of the house is different, being now completely one story, and the total square footage is smaller, but the .lot coverage. square footage is the same (actually 1 sq.ft. smaller). The cost of-this house is estimated at .approximately $160,000. Thank you for your kind consideration of this request. ~ s ._ s ~~~<~~•-~~~~ Richard & Marlene Ziemer(, ~~ 6229 Xerxes Ave. S.

Conley, Architect Based upon the evidence presented at the hearing, the undersigned makes the following findings of fact, conclusions and decisions. A. FINDINGS OF FACT: 1. Notice of public hearing was proper. Notice was mailed to property owners within 350 feet of the site in question as required by city ordinances. The ten day notice requirement was also met. 2. The street. address and legal description of the property in question are as follows: 6400 Vincent Av enue, N 78 ft of E 1/2 of Lot 7, Richfield Gardens Addition. 3. The .zoning of the site in question is R-Residential 4. The variance requested is to allow a lot coverage of 31.7 on a lot where 25~ lot coverage is the minimum allowed without a variance. 5. The reason for the request is to allow the applicant to build a home. with a majority of the floor space on the main level to accommodate his physically B. CONCLUSIONS: disabled wife.. Minnesota Statutes Section 462.357, subdivision six provides for the granting of variance to the literal provisions of the zoning regulations in instances where their strict enforcement would cause undue hardship to the owners. of the property under consideration. In determining whether to grant or deny the requested variance, I specifically make the following conclusions: 1. Is the granting of the variance necessary for .the preservation and enjoyment of substantial property rights? I conclude the granting of this variance is not necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of substantial .property . ~ - ~~~ y f rights for the average family, however, this new home is being built for a handicap member of the family (spouse). 2. Are there special circumstances or conditions affecting the particular land or building referred to in the application, not caused by the property owner, which are not common to other properties in this or similar districts? I conclude there are none. 3. Will the granting of the variance alter the essential character of the neighborhood or locality? I conclude the granting of this variance will improve the essential character of this neighborhood and locality. A new home is replacing a dilapidated house presently on site. No portion of this dilapidated house will be retained. Tremendous opportunity to improve this area. 4. Are there any conditions which must be attache dot the granting of the variance to ensure compliance .and to protect adjacent properties? I conclude that all landscaping be completed in a timely manner. C. DECISION Based, upon the foregoing, the undersigned determines that the request. be granted.
