STAFF REPORTS
Fire Chief Glaser briefly reviewed the Fire Department's annual report for 2004. The
department serves four communities - the city of Stillwater, city of Grant, Stillwater
Township and May Township - constituting 61 square miles. In addition to fire
suppression, the department provides first responder/EMS services; water/ice rescue;
code enforcement; fire prevention/education and support. There has been a dramatic
increase in code enforcement, he said, with 235 inspections conducted last year.
Chief Glaser noted there was an 8 percent increase in calls in 2004, but a 63 percent
over the past six years, a trend he expects will continue. Eighty-one percent of the 2004
calls, 1,032 calls, occurred in the city of Stillwater, 9 percent in Grant, 6 percent in
Stillwater Township and 3 percent in May Township; 1 percent were mutual aid calls.
There was a 31 percent decrease in fire calls; EMS calls were up 7 percent; service
calls up 18 percent; false alarms up 13 percent and miscellaneous calls up 25 percent.
Chief Glaser also highlighted the department's public education/fire prevention
activities.
The fire department's budget is 11 percent of the City's overall budget. Fifty-eight
percent of the department's budget is for personnel, 22 percent for capital outlay and 20
percent for operations. The department received $110,000 in grants/donations, which
along with the City's contribution of $65,000, allowed the department to purchase a new
quick-attack, mini pumper. The department also received a FEMA grant for additional
equipment purchase.
Councilmembers congratulated Chief Glaser on the quality of the report.
Community Development Director Russell informed the Council that the Planning
Commission and Park Board are beginning the review of the Phase III annexation area.
He also noted the banners are up in the downtown district.
Public Works Director Eckles informed the Council the City has received a request from
School District 834 to consider allowing the District to participate in the City's streets
project for seal coating of the Rutherford School parking area. Mr. Eckles noted that last
year the City did allow neighboring entities to piggyback on the City's improvement
project and suggested that a larger project might result in a better bid. Councilmember
Milbrandt moved to direct staff to work with School District staff to facilitate the District's
request. Councilmember Junker seconded the motion; motion passed unanimously.
City Administrator Hansen reminded Councilmembers of the upcoming State of the
Cities conference to be held March 31.

PUBLIC HEARINGS
Case No. SUPNI05-05. This is the day and time for the public hearinq to consider an appeal
of the Planninq Commission's decision on a request from MSP Commercial. Alex Younq, for a
special use permit for drive throuqh bankinq and a variance to the siqn ordinance (one siqn
allowed, three siqns requested) for Lake Elmo Bank located at 1903 South Greeley Street in
the BP-C, Business Park Commercial District. Notices were mailed to affected property
owners and published in the Stillwater Gazette on March 4, 2005.
Community Development Director Russell said the original request was for three signs;
the applicant is now requesting a variance for two signs. The ordinance allows for one
sign only. The Planning Commission denied the request for a variance.
Mayor Kimble opened the public hearing.
Dick Zehring, president of MSP Commercial, addressed the Council. He said Lake Elmo
Bank has many customers in the Stillwater area. Plans are for a first-rate building and
high quality signage. The site is situated at Greeley Street and Highway 36, and he said
the two signs are important for the identification of the new business. He noted the
Planning Commission decision was on a split vote.
Dan Raleigh, president of Lake Elmo Bank, showed photos of the requested signs. The
pylon sign will be similar to the Bank's Lake Elmo and Oakdale locations, he said. The
wall sign, he said, is needed to provide visibility from Highway 36. An existing
monument sign will be removed.

March 15, 2005
Mayor Kimble closed the public hearing.
During Council discussion, Council member Junker said the Planning Commission's
concern was with consistency, pointing out this issue is not specific to bank signage.
Councilmember Polehna agreed with the concern regarding consistency. Mayor Kimble
said the biggest concern he hears from local businesses is that the City's ordinance
regulating signage is too strict. Mr. Junker argued that if the City doesn't comply with its
ordinance, the ordinance has no merit.
Councilmember Milbrandt pointed out the applicant could use up to 30 percent of the
window space for signage and suggested that the requested signs are more tasteful
than window signage would be.
Motion by Councilmember Milbrandt, seconded by Council member Harycki to approve the
variance.
Ayes: Councilmembers Milbrandt, Harycki, and Mayor Kimble
Nays: Councilmembers Junker and Polehna
Case No. V/04-93. This is the date and time for a public hearinq to consider an appeal of the
Planninq Commission's decision on a request from John Buettner for a variance to the front
yard setback (30 feet required, 0 feet requested) and side yard setback (5 feet required. 3 feet
requested) for the construction of a carport and to the accessory buildinq size requlations (120
square feet allowed. 396 feet requested) for the construction of a covered deck located at 308
E Poplar Street in the RA, Sinqle Family Residential District. Notices were mailed to affected
property owners and published in the Stillwater Gazette on March 4, 2005.
Community Development Director Russell stated originally there were two parts to the
applicant's request: a request for a carport and eave overhang on the house, as well as
to cover an existing accessory structure/deck. The deck was covered without a building
permit, he noted. The applicant is no longer requesting the carport; the carport is being
removed. The Planning Commission approved the variance for the eave overhang and
denied the request for the covered accessory structure.
Mayor Kimble opened the public hearing.
John Buettner, applicant, addressed the Council. He noted the deck was on the site
when he purchased the property. He said he constructed a roof in order to make the
deck useable and to prevent the structure from deteriorating due to weather.
Mayor Kimble closed the public hearing.
During Council discussion, Council member Junker noted the Planning Commission
members felt strongly against allowing an accessory structure of the size requested and
pointed out the Planning Commission has been consistent in adhering to regulations
Page 4 of 13
City Council Meeting - 05-07
March 15, 2005
regarding the size of accessory structures. Several members noted many people have
decks that are open to the weather and there are building materials that are weather
resistant.
Motion by Council member Junker, seconded by Councilmember Milbrandt, moved to uphold
the Planning Commission's recommendation and deny the request for the covered accessory
structure. All in favor.
UNFINISHED BUSINESS
Possible approval of 2005 Lumberjack Days Aqreement
City Administrator Hansen stated he thought the proposed contract agreement covered
all the items discussed at the latest Council workshop on the event. He did point out that
the proposal sets the event organizer's contribution to public safety costs at $34,000, up
from $32,500 in 2004. Mr. Hansen noted that with events concluding after Sunday's
parade, there should be less expense this year.
Councilmember Harycki said as a member of the Lumberjack Days Advisory
Committee, he thought the intent was to have St. Croix Events cover the entire cost of
public safety. He asked what the actual cost was last year. Police Chief Dauffenbach
said police costs amounted to approximately $44,000; Fire Chief Glaser said his
department expended $13,300 in 2004. City Administrator Hansen noted that St. Croix
Events was billed, and paid for, the additional policing costs in 2004. Mr. Harycki said
he was opposed to having a cap on the cost and suggested adding language such as:
St. Croix Events is responsible for the actual cost of public safety expenses, estimated
to be.
Councilmember Milbrandt said event promotion was an issue discussed previously and
wondered why that was not part of the contract proposal. City Administrator Hansen
said that issue was not mentioned, as the Council had not reached consensus on the
matter during the last discussion.
Councilmember Harycki questioned the wording regarding cleanup, in particular the
requirement for the event organizer to sweep the streets. Mr. Harycki suggested that the
agreement not be confined to streets but should be expanded to cleanup of the
downtown area. Other Councilmembers noted that organizers had done a good job at
cleanup last year.
David Eckberg, St. Croix Events, said event organizers have always worked with the
City in good faith. He pointed out that when extra costs are involved, St. Croix Events
steps up and covers those costs. He stated the proposed contract has not changed and
doesn't need to be reworked. Promotion is not included in the contract, he said,
because the Entertainment Committee is to approve that plan after the Saturday
evening band is booked, as agreed upon in the last Council discussion.

City Council Meeting - 05-07
March 15, 2005
Motion by Council member Harycki, seconded by Councilmember Milbrandt to table approval of
the Lumberjack Days agreement for two weeks until language is firmed up. All in favor.
Mr. Eckberg stated a two-week delay would not create a problem.
Possible approval of hirinq/contractinq with Emerqency Services Consultinq Inc. to conduct the
Fire Service Delivery Study
Fire Chief Glaser said the Selection Committee interviewed three consultants and is
recommending Emergency Services Consulting Inc. to conduct the study.
Motion by Councilmember Polehna, seconded by Council member Junker, to adopt Resolution
2005-60, Approval of the Fire Service Delivery Study Agreement.
Ayes: Councilmembers Polehna, Milbrandt, Harycki, Junker and Mayor Kimble

NEW BUSINESS
Request for consideration of development in Boutwell South Area by Manchester Homes
(tabled from 1/18/05 meetinq)
Community Development Director Russell stated this request had come before the
Planning Commission. He noted the site currently is outside the City. The recently
prepared Boutwell South Plan includes a policy that annexation not be considered until
street improvements/traffic impacts have been addressed. There are some plans for
traffic improvements. The Planning Commission felt at this point, the request by
Manchester Homes is premature.
Greg Johnson, Manchester Homes, said the owner of the property has been transferred
out of state and they need to make a decision on the disposition of the property. He
stated the proposal for a 28-lot subdivision is less dense than allowed in the City's
Comprehensive Plan. The developers would limit the number of home closings to seven
in anyone year; would be willing to restrict access out of the development to right-only,
thus forcing traffic to County Road 15; and would wait until traffic lights at county roads
15/12 are installed and operational before submitting a preliminary plat. He said this is a
unique site that does not impact the Neal Avenue extension or Boutwell traffic, and, he
said, the development is an opportunity for local builders. He asked for Council
direction.
Councilmember Junker stated the Planning Commission was concerned about
proceeding with any development before the impact of traffic improvements is known.
He suggested the Council owes it to the people to abide by the policy of the Boutwell
South Plan, a plan that was only recently approved and put in place after many months
of work and discussions with residents. Councilmember Milbrandt also spoke of the
need to abide by the Boutwell Plan, as well as the Orderly Annexation Agreement,
Page 6 of 13
City Council Meeting - 05-07
March 15, 2005
calling it a matter of Council credibility. Mr. Milbrandt also pointed out it is unknown what
the traffic impact of residential development in the downtown area and the upcoming
development of the Palmer property will be. Council member Polehna agreed with the
need to follow the Boutwell Area Plan that was just put in place.
City Attorney Magnuson pointed out that staff currently is working at developing a traffic
impact fee that would allow developers to voluntarily pay a fee for road construction
which might be a consideration in the Council's ultimate decision. Public Works Director
Eckles said planning for road improvements is a big issue for the City; he said he would
have more information to be presented during the Council's next workshop session,
4:30 p.m. April 5.
Councilmember Junker said he would indicate to the developer that he would not
consider any development proposal until late this year at the earliest. Councilmember
Milbrandt suggested a possible motion that the Council is not in a position to consider
Manchester Homes' request at this time. Councilmember Harycki suggested indicating
to the developer the Council would not consider any request until the traffic situation is
reassessed after the lights are installed at County Road 15 and 12. Mayor Kimble
expressed a concern that a delay might result in a lost opportunity for local builders.
No official action was taken.
Possible first readinq of Ordinance No. 954. an Ordinance Amendinq Chapter 41, Licenses,
Permits and Prohibitions*. Section 41-4 Entitled Peddlers and Solicitors of the City Code of the
City of Stillwater
City Clerk Ward explained the purpose of the revision is to provide a better process for
the issuance of licenses/permits and to acquire more information from applicants; a
picture ID would be required. Each solicitor would have a registration card, which must
be shown to residents/law enforcement/staff upon request. The revision includes
definitions, an appeals process and a daily time limit for soliciting. Councilmember
Harycki asked about excluding school groups, Scouts and similar organizations. Ms.
Ward said there is a section under exemptions and language could be added specifying
groups to be excluded.
Motion by Council member Milbrandt, seconded by Councilmember Polehna, approving the first
reading of Ordinance No. 954, an Ordinance Amending Chapter 41, Licenses, Permits and
Prohibitions*, Section 41-4 Entitled Peddlers and Solicitors of the City Code of the City of
Stillwater, with language to be added specifying groups to be excluded.

Review and Approval of Downtown Desiqn Manual
Community Development Director Russell said the City's first design manual was
approved in 1989 as part of the Downtown Plan. This revised manual is based on the
experiences of the City's Heritage Preservation Commission and is a key policy element
of the planning regulations for the downtown district. Present were Howard Lieberman,
chair of the Heritage Preservation Commission, and Roger Tomten, HPC member and
chief author of the revised design manual.
Council member Harycki asked if the Chamber of Commerce had reviewed the manual.
Mr. Lieberman stated the document was not explicitly circulated to the Chamber. He
noted that historically there have been very few appeals from Heritage Preservation
Commission decisions because the design guidelines grew out of federal guidelines that
are applicable to historic properties. Mr. Lieberman stated that the City's design
guidelines have been so successful national preservation representatives recently
visited the City for discussion with the Heritage Preservation Commission.
Mayor Kimble suggested putting off approval of the manual until the Chamber is able to
review the document and provide any input. Mr. Lieberman suggested the possibility of
a joint workshop with the Heritage Preservation Commission and Chamber
representatives.
Motion by Councilmember Harycki, seconded by Council member Milbrandt, to invite Chamber
representatives to meet with the H PC to review the Downtown Design Manual prior to approval
by the Council. Motion passed unanimously.
Possible first readinq of Ordinance No. 955, an Ordinance Amendinq Chapter 43, Liquor
City Clerk Ward said Police Chief Dauffenbach, City Attorney Magnuson and City
Administrator Hansen have reviewed the revision. The revision provides for more
background information from applicants, as well as fees for conducting the background
checks. It also was felt that public hearings should not be limited to new licenses but
should also apply to license transfers. The revision also reinstates language limiting the
amount of time patrons can be on premises after closing.
Motion by Councilmember Milbrandt, seconded by Council member Polehna, to have the first
reading of Ordinance No. 955 an Ordinance Amending Chapter 43, Liquor
Ayes: Councilmembers Harycki, Junker, Milbrandt and Polehna and Mayor Kimble
Nays: None

Possible first readinq of Ordinance No. 956, An Ordinance amendinq Chapter 51, Traffic,
Section 51-8. requlatinq self-propelled devices
Police Chief Dauffenbach reviewed the proposed changes. The primary changes
require written permission for use of such devices on private property. The revised
ordinance also makes it possible to prohibit the use of the devices anywhere in the City
by Council resolution. Attorney Magnuson said the current ordinance is very vague and
difficult to enforce.
Councilmember Harycki asked about the scope of the problem. He suggested sitting
down with kids and discussing the problem. Councilmember Polehna pointed out that
over $2,000 in damage has been done to the stairs at the Historic Courthouse by
skateboarders. Council member Milbrandt noted that there is money in the Parks Board
2005 capital improvement budget for a skateboard facility.
Mr. Polehna suggested adding scooters to the definitions.
Motion by Council member Milbrandt, seconded by Councilmember Polehna, approving
the first reading of ordinance No. 958, adding scooters to the definitions for the second
reading.
Ayes: Councilmembers Junker, Milbrandt and Polehna and Mayor Kimble
Nays: Council member Harycki
Possible approval of resolution relatinq to the annexation of the Munkelwitz property
City Attorney Magnuson clarified this is a resolution for the annexation of the Munkelwitz
property. He said closing on the property has taken place. He stated that the City needs
to annex the parcel in order to record the deeds. Once annexed, the City can approve
the split of the site into three parcels, which will make the City eligible for open space
grant funds.
Motion by Council member Milbrandt, seconded by Councilmember Harycki, to adopt
Resolution 2005-64, A Resolution Annexing Land To The City Of Stillwater Pursuant To The
Joint Resolution Of The City And Town Of Stillwater As To Orderly Annexation Dated August
16,1996

Response to Town Circle Street repair request
Public Works Director Eckles told the Council that following the request of residents of
Town Circle, another analysis of the street was conducted; results of the analysis have
been forwarded to residents. He said the analysis found some failure of the surface mix,
Page 9 of 13
City Council Meeting - 05-07
March 15, 2005
but overall the street is in good condition and the life of the pavement can be preserved
through maintenance. He said residents could petition for an improvement project if 100
percent of the residents sign such a petition. Mr. Eckles said Public Works would
continue to monitor the status of the street.
Mayor Kimble and Councilmember Milbrandt asked that Public Works follow up on
residents' comments regarding curbs and the problem with water ponding.
Possible approval to prepare feasibility report for Pine Street
Public Works Director Eckles said this action is needed for the City to pursue the assessment
process for the cost of the improvements. He said the feasibility report could be ready for the
next meeting, with a feasibility hearing scheduled for late April. After the hearing, the Council
could order the improvements and proceed with the assessment process.
Motion by Council member Milbrandt, seconded by Council member Junker, to adopt Resolution
2005-61, Resolution Ordering Feasibility Report for the Pine Street Concrete Rehabilitation
Project (Project 2003-14).
Ayes: Councilmembers Harycki, Junker, Milbrandt and Polehna and Mayor Kimble
Nays: None
Possible approval of plans and specifications and authorization to advertise for bids for 2005
street project & discussion on sidewalk assessment for 2005 street improvement project
Public Works Director Eckles said plans and specifications have been completed.
Approval will allow advertisement for bids. Mr. Eckles noted that there had been
discussion regarding extending the sidewalks on South Fifth Street the length of the
street. He said sidewalks could be installed without too much disruption. He noted a
petition had been submitted to the City but no residents had talked with him.
Council member Junker said he had talked with residents on South Fifth Street. He said
the sidewalk certainly needs to be completed to Marsh Street, but suggested the
extension from Marsh to Churchill needs to be addressed more fully. Mr. Eckles said he
would recommend approval of the plans and specifications, with the understanding that
a portion of the project may be deleted. Council member Milbrandt suggested staking
out the possible location of the sidewalks on South Fifth so residents get a better
perspective of the location/impact. Mr. Eckles said Public Works would stake out the
location.
Motion by Council member Milbrandt, seconded by Councilmember Harycki, to adopt
Resolution 2005-62, Approving Plans & Specifications and Ordering Advertisement for Bids
for 2005 Street Improvement Project (Project 2005-02).

Possible approval to prepare feasibility report for Boutwell Road
Public Works Director Eckles explained that this action, like the earlier action on Pine
Street, would allow the City to pursue the assessment process.
Councilmember Milbrandt expressed a concern that the section of Boutwell proposed
for improvement will force the most traffic into the area of greatest concern, and the
proposal does little to improve the intersection of Boutwell and Myrtle (County Road 12).
He questioned why the City wouldn't first improve the section of Boutwell from
Creekside to County Road 15. Mr. Eckles pointed out that Settlers Glen is still under
construction and construction traffic uses that portion of the road.
Council member Junker asked if there is any way to improve the Boutwel1/12
intersection. Mr. Eckles said the proposal calls for better turn lanes and guardrail
protection. However, he said, to change the angle of the intersection would require
taking down the hill from Boutwell to Northland, a very costly undertaking.
Motion by Council member Junker, seconded by Councilmember Polehna, to prepare the
feasibility report for Boutwell Road.
Ayes: Councilmembers Junker and Polehna and Mayor Kimble
Nays: Councilmembers Harycki and Milbrandt
City Attorney Magnuson pointed out that it would require a 4/5th vote of the Council to
order the improvements. He questioned the wisdom of proceeding with the feasibility
report, it the Council is split on the issue. Councilmember Harycki suggested a
workshop session. Mr. Eckles stated he could bring some specific information to the
workshop already scheduled for the 4:30 p.m. meeting on April 5.
Council member Milbrandt asked if the Council could rescind the previous action on the
feasibility report. Attorney Magnuson said that could be done if a member who voted in
favor of the original action introduced the motion to rescind.
Councilmember Junker moved, seconded by Councilmember Harycki to rescind the
action to approve preparation of the feasibility report.
Ayes: Councilmembers Harycki, Junker, Milbrandt and Polehna and Mayor Kimble
Nays: None
Possible approval of 2005 Fall Arts Festival Special Event & Contract
City Clerk Ward noted the request includes placement of a sandwich board. She

contract without the use of a sandwich board as the event is already advertised with a

event that has been held for many years.
Motion by Council member Polehna, seconded by Councilmember Milbrandt, to adopt
Resolution 2005-63, Approval of the 2005 Fall Arts Festival Agreement without the use of the
sandwich board.
Ayes: Councilmembers Harycki, Junker, Milbrandt and Polehna and Mayor Kimble

Discussion on sandwich board - Council member Harycki
Councilmember Harycki said he had received a request from the Chamber of
Commerce that the 12 or so shops participating in the Tussy Mussy Day, Wednesday,
April 2, be allowed to use small sandwich boards.
Councilmember Junker noted such a request should go through the normal application
process. Mr. Harycki said he had a completed application. Mayor Kimble noted the
event is held on a Wednesday and suggested allowing the use of the boards; if
complaints are received this year, the use wouldn't be allowed in future years.
Motion by Councilmember Junker, seconded by Councilmember Harycki to approve the use of
sandwich boards for shops participating in Tussy Mussy Day on April 2. All in favor.
