FROM:
DATE:
SUBJECT:
Abatement of Taxes for Orleans Homes (Cottages)
BACKGROUND
The CIty has receIved notice from Washmgton County that apphcatIons for abatement of
Payable 1999 taxes was approved by the assessor for the two Cottages parcels owned by Orleans
Homes. The CIty has 20 days to respond to the request and officIally object to the reduction
ANALYSIS
The two parcels are the "Cottages" rental housmg umts. The CIty origmally sold $1,200,000 TIF
bonds to support this project and there IS still $590,000 m TIF bonds outstandmg. The mterest
and pnncIpal payment for the 1999 debt seIVlce IS approxunately $114,000. The proposed
changes wIll reduce the Payable 1999 tax mcrement generated to approximately $42,000. This
wIll create a shortfall of $72,000 for the payable year 1999 alone, not to mention the future years
debt seIVlce.
CONCLUSION
The legislature changed the class rates and these reductions are aVailable to quahfymg propertIes.
The County Assessor has milicated that the Cottages does qUalIfy for the 1 % rate for class 4( d)
propertles and this Will be effective for Payable 2000 real estate taxes. The CIty still has the
nght to deny the abatement apphcatIons and proceed With this process for payable 1999 taxes.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends CIty CounCIl formally deny the apphcatlons for abatement because of the
hardship thIS would create for the CIty, because of the Tax Increment Bonds outstanding and to
pursue collectIon of defiCIent Tax Increment from the property owners pursuant to the
development agreement, If necessary

the magazine, The magazine aims to educate kids on sports in a kid-friendly format The purpose of the
tour is to bring the magazine to "life" for kids by replicating the different sections of the magazine in an

Sports lliustrated For Kids.
Attached you will find a complete description oCthe event, a footprint of the set up, a rendering of the
exterior of the vehicle and a list of sponsors. The 4,500 square foot set-up would require about 20 parking

FROM:
DATE:
RE:
Settlement of the Cat Ballou Administrative Hearing Officer Decision
I have met several times with Bob Briggs, lawyer for Dick Anderson, and I have also
talked With Chief Dauffenbach in an effort to settle the outstanding appeal that Cat Ballou's has
brought of the Administrative Heanng Officer's decision on Cat Ballou's liquor violations
We have been able to reach a compromised decision and I enclose a proposed stipulation
for consideration by the City Council and an amended resolution slightly changing the penalty
schedule for violations The stipulation is self explanatory, but by way of explanation there are
several reasons for the action suggested in the stipulation
First of all, smce the process is new, the time of ItS adoption interfered with the
application of some of the penalties There are both constitutional and fairness issues with
regard to a penalty that is adopted after an alleged offense has been committed
Next, the penalties suggested by the prevIous resolution did not contain a timeframe In
other words, even if offenses were 10 or 20 years apart they would be cumulative for the
.
.
.
.
Mayor, City Council and Staff
June 29, 1999
Page 2
purposes of the penalty provisions The change would make the cumulative penalties accrue
over a five year period
Lastly, the prior penalty schedule required an 18 day suspension for a third violation. We
think the cumulative progressive penaltIes should go from 3 to 6 to 9 days, rather than 3 to 6 to
18 with the fourth offense being revocation Hopefully, we will not have to face these more
serious violations since it appears most bar owners are making a sincere effort to comply
We submit the proposed stipulation and resolution for Council consideration

ADMINISTRATIVE HEARING
In Re the Matter of
St. CrOIX Boating and Packet Company
d/b/a Cat Ballou Restaurant
R.1chard John Anderson, Owner
STIPULATION
ThIs matter was heard April 16, 1999, at the Stlllwater CIty Hall by Hearing Officer Deborah
V. Kraus. Present at the hearing were Stillwater Police ChIef Larry J Dauffenbach, R.1chard J
Anderson (Defendant), and Robert G Briggs, Esquire, of Stillwater, Minnesota appeared for Mr.
Anderson. The record was closed on Apn123, 1999 and on May 11, 1999, Deborah V. Kraus,
Hearing Officer, Issued her Findings and Order With regard to the proceedings before her.
On May 14, 1999 and within the time frame allowed for appeals, Notice of Appeal was
served upon the CIty requestIng a hearing before the City Council pursuant to Chapter 43 of the CIty
Code. It is the purpose of this Stipulation to compromise and settle the appeal proceedings and
therefore, the parties agree as follows:
1 That because the November 12, 1998 offense occurred prior to the effective date
of Resolution No. 98-309, a Resolution imposmg fines and penalties for VIOlations
ofOrdmance 43, it IS a violation of the Ex Post Facto proVisions of the United States
Constitution to allow that Violation to be considered for the purpose of enhancmg
future VIolations of Ordinance 43 as descnbed in the penalty provisions and
ResolutIon 98-309
2 That the Order of Deborah V. Kraus IS therefore modified to fmd that the
Defendant has committed one Violation of Ordinance 403 for the purposes of any
future violations, fines or penalties described in Resolution 98-309
3 That the City wdl amend Resolution No 98-309 to proVide 1) that the cumulative
record for the first and subsequent violations of alcohol and tobacco compliance rules
be bmited to offenses occurring Within any five year penod. As an illustration, if a
violation is the fourth Violation, in order to have the penalty for fourth violations
apply, the violation must be the fourth violation within five years; 2) That the
presumptive penalties be changed from 18 days to 9 days for violations for Type 3,
4,5,6,8 and 9 offenses as described in Resolution No. 98-309; 3) That a copy of the
proposed amended Resolution No. 98-309 IS attached as Exhibit "A".

The rates as shown above mclude the cost of contmwng the present "comprehensive"
pickup service (comprehensIve relates to the pICkup of "extra waste"). However, during
the dtscussions with Mr. Gersdorfthe concept of "limited" comprehensive pickup was
consIdered. Extra waste includes davenports, SInks, toilets, tIres, battenes, waste oIl,
doors and many other typICal household items other than garbage If the City were to only
require the pickup of tIres, battenes and dram oIl - Items that probably should contmue to

MEMORANDUM

RE:
MTM request for extension of
lease of Engine #328
DA:
July 2, 1999
Discussion:
I am attaching a revised lease agreement between the City of Stillwater and the
Minnesota Transportation Museum ("MTM''). As you know MTM has leased Engine
#328 since 1976 and the lease expires in 2006. MTM is now asking for what amounts to a
25 year extension of the lease - to 2031.
In comparison to the original lease the amended lease contains the following:
Current Lease
1. Expires 2006
2. 1bree nine day periods incorporating
two weekends.
3. City assumes all responsibility for
bringing train to Stillwater
including paying of expenses
and obtaining personnel, security,
materials, etc.
4. City determines fees and admission charges
MTM receives 30% of net operating revenue.
5. No language restricting where train may
operate.
6. Requires train to be returned to city at end
Amended Lease
Expires 2031
One weekend per year immediately
following Andersen Picnic Q!
Lumberjack Days Q! upon a one year
notice a mutually agreed upon date.
City and MTM mutually resolve all
arrangements for bringing train to
Stillwater City pay expenses but
MTM will provide personnel and
technical expertise at a reasonable
charge.
All revenues to belong to City.
Approval needed from City to
operate outside of a 200 mile radius.
"Control" of train (not its actual
of lease or if train is not operational for a
two year period.
return) would go to City If train
Becomes inoperable or if MTM
no longer exists as an org.
After 1/1/2010 train would return
to City if "suitable" facIlities are
available.
Although the reVIsed agreement extends the lease to 2031, I believe it is now more
favorable to the City in regards to bringing the tram to StIllwater and haVIng some control
over where the tram operates. The lease also has an "out" in regards to operating in or
near Stillwater if "suitable" facIlitIes become available.
The items hsted above and other prOVIsions of the lease can be discussed at the workshop
more fully with the MTM representatives who Will be at the workshop.
Recommendation:
Council consider approval of revised lease agreement between City of Stillwater and
Minnesota Transportation Museum.

We have had a request from the lady buymg the property at 2310 Boom Road to Install
her septic system drainfield on city property at the rear of her property. Both the Craig
Meistner home on the North and the Brad Kress home on the South have been allowed to

Purpose:
I would Hke an e"rly placement on the docket for the
July 6, 1999 city council meeting to request .
permission to put a septic trench system in city land
directly behind property at 2310 Boom Road.
Reasons Permission Should Be Given:
,.
Currently system is tagged aa health hazard; therefore, unusable.
Also, it is within 50 feet of neighbor's shallow well.
2.
Craig, neighbor directly adjacent on the north side, WitS granted
permission In 1998 to put his septic system on city land.
Due to neighbor on south side having a shallow well, it is
impossible to put a system in that meets the 50-foot distance
requirement and still be on my property.
3.
4.
A perk test was done on the above referenced city land and
proved very favorable for the trench system septic design.
5.
I have consulted with Cindy in the City of Stillwater Permit Division
regarding the tagged septic iasue, and she is in support of my
request.

RE:
Joe Arndt - placement
of retaining wall and garden
on part of conservation easement
DA:
July 2, 1999
Mr. Joe Arndt will be at the meeting Tuesday under IndividualslDelegations and Petitions
to request Council approval to relocate the conservancy easement that lies within his lot
in order to construct a retaining wall on his property. Mr. Arndt submitted the attached
plat map (that shows where the retaining wall is planned and approximately where the
easement would have to be relocated) to me back in April. However, this matter has not
yet been resolved because it requires a number of actions including Council approval as
well as DNR approval. Therefore, Mr. Arndt was advised to appear before the Council to
request City approval and cooperation in obtaining a change in the easement line.
Mr. Magnuson and Mr. Russell can advise you further on this matter at the meeting
Tuesday.
Recommendation:
Council consider request to relocate conservancy easement on Lot 7 Block 4, Liberty On
the Lake.

City Councll / To Whom it May Concern,
Please be advised the City Of sullwater Chamber of Commerce has reviewed and
discussed decorative hghtly to be installed downtown Stillwater. We discussed the style
of lighting and the cost per bneal foot. An official vote was taken on 6130/99 in favor of
the decorative hghttng for downtown.
.
We believe decorative hghtJng will add an essent.lIu aesthetiC value to Sttllw:ucr. As a
historic town It certainly seems to have a place, and we are one of few towns which does
not currently have decorative bghting. We are aware this may be the last opportunity for
Stillwater to obtain decorative lighting as a decision has been pending for quite some
time. We feel the time had come to install and enJoy such lighting
I hope you Will take Into account oor thoughu and opinion.
Sincerely,
t

PROPOSED DECORATIVE SJ'REET UGHTlNG IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT 98212
Dear Council Members,
I am writm, on tbe behalf of 01lt company wbich current! y owns aad
operates two commercial properties OD main atRet, Stillwater at (IOl &
662 So. Main Street) and have beeD part of the StiJIwater business family
for over 7 years, to voice oar concern and opposition to the ptopose4
project and the associated costs that will be levied to a certain portion of
the commercial properties.
Background:
As most of you know the commercial propertiu in down town Stillwater
are being hea\rily burdened with bigh teal oatate taxes, assessments and
cost of doine business which makes it extremely difficult for Jeaae rata to
be strucwred to Ulract and keep small specialty businesses (which are
the ba,*bone of the bUIin.5 structure in down town StiUwater) ill
operation year round during the high summer season and tbe dead
winter montbs.
As a result lbe occupanc)' rates of properties are low and the turn over
il high (cummtly several properties are vaem Ind no apparent chanle
in sight, including one of our own).
This cost of doiq business, also makes it prohibitive for property
developers to invest in uperadiug and remolding properties.
Current Proposal:
J. The proposed decorative lighting should hl\le been added several
yean ago during the modeling of main ureet and the highway lighting
upgrade.
2. Limitinc the c.urrent propoaed uparade to I small portion of main
street would be unpleuant and sbort chanres properties in the aoM
sS(don of main aUeet.

.
3. The proposed spreadi1ll of the project COlt is Dot fair.
Tile proposed levy of cost to a SELECTED section of main street businesses
for a lipno. project that allDmillll,. is being undertaken to eabace and
benefit the WHOLE of the downtown Im..e and hopefully attract more
visltors who would spend more in downtown, is discrimatot)' tantion.
The current proposed levy implies tllat luch increased spenditure by the
new flow of visitorl is l1Iaranteecl to totally and only benefit those
commercial prope"ies that would carry the eosts.
If that's the aSlumption it is far fetched and need to luarantoed by the
city counell to offset the levied costs.
However, if tbe above aSlumption does not bold, then, the cost of such a
project should be divide amoll' ALL tbe commercial buildlDBS ill
downtown Stillwater (and perhaps amoll' the residential propenies that
would benefit in value from said project) based 00 some property value
ratio.
A More Fair Alternative:
If tbe decorative Iiahtiaa project is meaDt to up,rade the down tOWJI
image to increase the flow of visitors perhaps the way this should be
looked It is by aslting how can we collectively attract more visitors to
Stillwater, then find way. to accomplish that. The followin. are some
suggestIons:
.
1. Forget about the liJhtiag and fund social events that "ould have a
higher probability to atttact more visiton Dch as concerti, monthly
activities, sbows, conventions especially durin, the low season.
2. Fund tbe addition of public facilities IDd cODvenient puking areas,
etc.
3. Most important idlpJement business friendly incentive program. that
would attract solid small bvsinesses to occupy the C\Jrrently vacant
commercial propenies.
This would def'uaitel, broaden the base of business and would attract
more visitors to seelc the loods and slIVices of IUch specialIzed
bus in esse,.
This is by far the most imponant Deed tIlat would benefit the down
town by taking it from beiDl au only acuonal tourist location to I
charming little town that satisfies . variety of consumer needs to attract
visitol'l and sustain businesses year round.

Memorandum

TO:
Mayor and CIty Council
FROM:
Klayton H. Eckles 1-.J! V
CIty EngIneer
SUBJECT:
DiSCUSSIon on Repair of Steps at Triangle Park and Warden's Museum
DISCUSSION:
In 1998, City CouncIl had approved a reparrproJect of the Triangle Park steps and a portion
of the steps near the Warden's House The work was awarded to Curb Masters, but they were unable
to perform the repairs Therefore, the work was not completed m 1998. Staff has obtained a quote
from Bailey ConstructIon who has successfully completed step repairs on the Mam Street steps and
the PIoneer Park steps In the past HIS quote IS attached. To complete both proJects, the cost would
be $13,500.
ThIs Item was not budgeted for in 1998 and not budgeted m 1999. The Street Department
does Include a budgeted item for Contractor Services that is generally for the hauling of snow,
sweeping, or use of specialIzed eqwpment Because there was very little snow to be hauled thIs year
It is possIble that thIs budget Item would have excess, therefore CouncIl may wish to charge this Item
as a contractor service. CouncIl should be aware that thIs item was not included under Contractor
Services so we could still exceed the budget on this item.
RECOMMENDATION:
The steps at Tnangle Park and the Warden's House should be reparred or closed. If Council
WIshes to keep these pedestrian ways open, they should consider the possIbilIty of charging the
Street Department budget, under Contractor Services, for the services of Bailey ConstructIon
ACTION REOUlRED:
If CouncIl deSIres to proceed With the repairs of these steps, Council should pass a motIon
adoptmg ResolutIon No. 99--, ACCEPTING QUOTATION FROM BAILEY
CONSTRUCTION, INC. FOR THE REPAIR OF THE STEPS AT TRIANGLE PARK AND
THE WARDEN'S HOUSE
RESOLUTION NO. 99-
ACCEPTING QUOTATION FROM BAILEY CONSTRUCTION, INC. FOR THE
REPAIR OF THE STEPS AT TRIANGLE PARK AND THE

BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of StIllwater, Minnesota, that hey hereby accept
the proposal from Bailey Construction, Inc. for repaIr of the steps at Tnangle Park and the
Warden's House for the quotation of$13,500.

RE:
Charter CommissIon Appt.
DA:
July 2, 1999
Discussion:
I am attaching some information that the City Attorney provided to me that IS related to
the appointment of Charter Commission members. I give this to you at this time because
Tim Old resigned from the Charter Comrmssion effective May 15, 1999 and the Chief
Judge has not made an appointment within the time frame specified in the Charter nor has
he asked for additional time to make the appomtment. Therefore, the Council now has the
authority to make an appointment The City has already advertised for applications so the
Council could make the appointment at any time (i.e., this meeting or at a subsequent
meeting).
Recommendation:
Council consider appointment to Charter Commission.

FROM: David T. Magnuson, Stillwater City Attorney ~ V
DATE, JWl&l29, 1999
SUBJECT; Charter C0mm15sion Appointments
I have read YOUT memo of June 24, 1999 and agree that the ninety (90) day notice reqa;ired by the
Charter can only apply to cases where a Charter Commission Member's tcnn will expire OD a known
date. The pubbcation requirement can net be followed in the event of a resIgnation since we might
not know until the day it
.
ThIs Charter requirement however, does not abridge Minn Stat.410 05 Not only is tbls a statute,
but ~lS.07 of the Charter recognizes the authority ofdte statIl1e with regard to filling vacancies This
statute does not reqwre that notice be gIVen to the Judge of vacancies and the thi11y (30) day penod
begins to run upon the cxpiratJon of a term or a vacancy occ:urring in the Commission. Thirty days
after a vacancy occurs, unless the Ch1ef Judge has mdicated in writing that he needs more time, the
obhgation to fill vacancies faUs upon the City Cowwll. For your information, I enclose a copy of
Judge Doyscher's dcclslon With regard to this very Issue and any changes In the City Charter with

Memorandum
July 2, 1999
TO:
Mayor and CIty Council
FROM:
Klayton H. Eckles V
CIty Engmeer I-r
SUBJECT:
Extension of Moratorium on North HIll
DISCUSSION:
Due to the heavy workload assocIated WIth the annexatIon area and numerous projects takIng
place throughout the City, staffhas been unable to complete the complex task ofprepanng a
feasIbIlity report for the North HIll. ThIs report would dISCUSS various options and alternatIves for
serving the North Hill WIth publIc utilIties and reconstructing substandard streets. CouncIl dIrected
staff to begm work on thIs report last summer and at the same tune ordered a moratorium on the
North Hill. The moratorium restncted all new home construction because of the lack of public
utIlIties in the area and the impact that infill development has on the rudimentary mfrastructure.
It does not appear that CIty staff wIll have the ability to complete this study before the end of
the one-year moratonum Given this fact, City CouncIl could act on anyone of four actions to deal
WIth North HIlI development.
Council could extend the moratorium to allow addttional time to complete the study. There
may be some legal aspects of this choice that Council may WIsh to receIve mput from the CIty
Attorney.
Council could place permanent restrictions such as not allowing addttional development on
lots below the minimum SIze for an on. site system, or other restnctions that would reduce the mfil
development occurring on North Hill
CouncIl could hire a consulting :firm to complete the bulk of the engineering work for the
study. The only negative aspects of this option are that even an outside consultant would require
sigmficant input and oversight from CIty staff, the consultant probably would not be able to
complete the report by the required deadlme and could cost in excess of $50,000, which is not in the
budget.
July 2, 1999
CouncIl could allow the moratonum to lapse and allow development to occur on North Hill
with relatively no restnctIons. This optIon is not recommended at this tIme because of the same
Issues that drew us to the need to put the moratorium m place nme months ago.
It appears that the cleanest option may be to sunply extend the moratonum as long as
possIble. Thts would allow us tune to dISCUSS eIther programmmg this work for staff in the coming
months or budgetIng for addItIonal engmeering assIstance from a consultIng firm In the year 2000
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that Council consider extendIng the moratonum on new home
constructIon on North HIll.
ACTION REOUlRED:
If CouncIl concurs WIth the recommendation, they should pass a motIon dIrect the CIty
attorney to proceed WIth the process reqwred to extend the moratonum on North Hill

MEMORANDUM
TO Mayor and City Council
FROM
f)S.
Shawn Sanders, CIvil Engineer
DATE July 1, 1999
RE Myrtlewood Backyard Dramage Problem
DISCUSSION:
The Myrtlewood drainage problem has been an ongoing Issue datmg back to the spring of
1997, when the owner at 113 Myrtlewood Court requested theIr $1500 gradmg escrow
upon cOJ:.IlpletlOn of the new home construction When staff visited the sIte, it was noticed
that water was pooling in theIr backyard and along the adjacent lots and runoff was
slowly dramIng to the eXIsting 12" storm pipe along the back property lme, which outlets
to the dramage dItch on Myrtle Street This Issue remained unresolved over the next two
years, With no actIon taken place, and the gradmg escrow continued to be held by the
CIty
This spnng, the City met With the developer, Dick Huelsmann, and the owner of the
property to resolve thIs matter. A field survey shows that there is mmImal elevatIon
change m the backyards leading to the existing storm pIpe causmg t the poor drainage
and the poolIng of water It IS worth noting that there is a substantial SIze tree in the
backyard that also contributes to poor drainage path Staff then came up WIth a deSIgn of
new storm pIpe that would start at the drainage ditch m Myrtle Street and would extend
approxImately 90 feet further than the existmg pIpe The pIpe would be installed west of
the eXisting pIpe and about a foot lower in elevatIon, this would allow for better drainage
of the backyards
The Engineering Department asked two contractor's, C W Houle and Fuhr Trenching to
submit a bid to perform the work Fuhr Trenching submitted the lower bid of the two at
$10,110 00
After bids were received the City met with Dick Huelsmann to dtscuss the bid results and
how to pay for the work It was agreed between both parties that he would be responsible
for $3900 of the project costs and the City would pay for the remaining costs or $6200
from the Storm Water Utility Fund.
ACTION REOUIRED
It is recommended that Council accept Fuhr Trenching's Bid of$10,110 to correct the
backyard drainage problem on Myrtlewood Court

Temporary SIgnage
Background
At the May 18, 1999 CIty CouncIl meetIng PhIl Eastwood of Coldwell Banker Burnet
Realty, representIng members of the local real estate commumty, requested modtfication
of the CIty SIgn Ordtnance to allow for the use of dIrectIOnal real estate SIgns on CIty
nght-of-ways. CouncIl determmed the Issue should be referred to the Plannmg
CommiSSIon and returned to CouncIl for the July 6th meeting.

~Real estate SIgnS: Present for the discussion were realtors PhIl Eastwood, Pat Branch, Adam
Nyberg and Kate Daniels. Mr. Eastwood saId there have never been a lot of complaints regarding
signs in the past, but he said realtors could do better by using no more arrow signs that absolutely
needed and removmg those signs promptly when the property is sold and by taking open house
signs down immediately after the open is over.
Mr. Zoller noted that It IS agaInSt state and county law to place signage in the right-of-way, and
SaId he would be opposed to the city changing its ordinance to allow such a practice. He also
referred to Mr. Eckles' letter outlming concerns, including concerns regarding safety issues.
Mr. Nyberg said the real estate people were not looking for an ordmance change, but said the use
of directional signs and open house signs are Important to their ability to market a property. Ms.
Branch said real estate people can "police" themselves regarding removal of dIrectionaVopen
house signs In a timely manner
Mr. Rheinberger, seconded by Mr. Wald, moved to retain the CIty'S existing sign ordinance.
Motion passed unanimously. The realtor representatIves In attendance Indicated their support of
the motIon.
Rezonine: of an auto reoarr busmess at 13093 McKuSICk Road from single famIlv to commercial: .
Mr. Russell said not rezoning the property would not impact the current business owner as the
use IS grandfathered m It was pointed out the property probably would be more valuable Ifthe
current owner deCIded to sell at some point m the future ifleft zoned single family. Mr. Hultman,
seconded by Mr Rheinberger, moved to leave the zoning as IS, motion passed unanimously
Mr. Rheinberger, seconded by Mr. Wald, moved to adjourn at 9:35 p.m; all in favor.

.
PhIl Eastwood, Coldwell Banker Burnet, and representmg members of the local real
estate community, requested modification of the City Sign ordmance to allow for the
jUdICious use of directIOnal signs on CIty right-of-ways He stated the dIrectIonal signs
have been used In the CIty by real estate practitioners for many years, and that the city
has only recently received a complaint about their use. The CIty sent letters to the real
estate community stating the long standing ordinance regarding sIgnage will now be
enforced. He requested the ordinance be changed to allow for the signage on public
right-of-way The request would be to allow directIOnal signs to remain for the duration
of a IIstmg, usually approximately 60-90 days.
DIscussion followed with concerns expressed about the prolIferation of signs in the City
causmg a VIsual unpact. Also, there was concern that property owners on major
mtersections would have SignS placed In their front yard for extended periods of time.
Council determined the Issue should be referred to the Planning Commission for their
next meeting and returned to CouncIl for the July 6th meeting
Motion by Councilmember Thole, seconded by Councllmember Zoller referring the request for the Sign

To: The Mayor and City Council of Stillwater
From: Members of the Local Real Estate Commnnity
Members of the Local Real Estate Industry would like to ask the City Coun~ on
behalf of current and future homeseUers, to consider modifYing the citys sign ordinance to
allow for the judicious use of directional signs on city right ofways. We believe that the
use of these signs can greatly enhance the ability of home seDers to affect a sale and
further to obtain the best price for their home. It is UDiversally accepted in the real estate
industry that the best way to ensure the sale of a property and get the best price is to
expose that property to as many potential buyers possible. A significant number of home
sales come as a result of buyers having seen a "for sale" sign on a property. The purpose
of directional signs is to direct buyers to properties wJrlch are Dot on major thorougb:f8res,
thus providing a service to both home seDers and buyers.
As we have in the past, the real estate COlillllllllity will endeavor to comply with
certain standards of practice with regard to the use of directionaI signs, including:
Use of such signs shoUld be in conformance with state and local ordinances
regulating their placement near traffic signs.
Directional signs should be taken down when the property they lead to has been
sold and all contigeucies of sale except for financing have been removed.
Only as many directional signs should be used for any given property as are
necessaxy to direct buyers to the property from ungor thorough&res.
Signs used to direct buyers to open houses should only be employed for the
duration of the open house.
We believe that the fact that directional signs have used in Stillwater by real estate
practitioners for many years and that the city has, apparently, only recently received a
complaint about their use, probably indicates that most residents of the city respect their
neighbor's desire to get the best possible price for their home. .
We hope that the council will consider these facts and modifY the city's sign
ordinance accordingly.

Memorandum
May 20, 1999
TO: City Planning Commission
FROM: Klayton H. Eckles
CIty Engineer
SUBJECT: Comments on Request to Place Real Estates SIgns
In Public right-of-ways
Aside from the fact that there are some very real issues concerning the use of public property
for a private profit oriented purpose, there are some sIgnificant practical issues concerning the
request to put commercial real estate signs in public right-of-way. These issues concern the number
of signs, the location, and the physical installation of the signs.
Engineenng/PublIc Works Department is concerned about this issue due to the great number
of signs that would be mstalled. On the average, a typIcal property will exchange hands within a
seven-year period Assuming if each property mstalled three directional signs during the sale of the
property, this would result in approximately 2,500 signs being placed in public right-of-way over the
course of a year. The Engineering Department reviews the placement of public signs individually
and carefully for each propsoed sign. The obj ective is to minimize the overall amount of signage and
clutter with the public right-of-way. SIgnS that are placed in the right-of-way are typically for
express public safety purposes. A prolIferatIOn of signs in the right-of-way would take away from
the effectiveness of the public signs. I also would lIke to point out that the City has gone to great
lengths in attempting to minimize the number of signs (in the downtown area for instance) due to the
negative impacts of sign clutter on the community.
The second issue that concerns EngineeringlPublic Works is the proposed location of the
signs. These types of signs invariably end up at intersections. This is a major concern because the
placement of signage at or near eye level can reduce the visibility of oncoming traffic or pedestrians
at intersections. Also, signs at this location can distract drivers from other important signs such as
stop signs or take the driver's attention away from oncoming vehicles. Given the large number of
signs that could be in place at any given time it is likely that certain intersections will see significant
sign clutter that can also distract drivers.
The third issue of concern is the installation of these signs. Minnesota State Law requires
that any excavation or installation below the ground surfaces requires the location of public utilities
in the area. The publIc right-of-ways contain gas mains, electrical and cable TV lines, and fibroptic
...
cables. The placement of posts or stakes in the ground to hold signs would require NSP, cable TV,
telephone, and the City to respond to each proposed sign location to inspect and insure that utilities
are clear of the proposed location. This would involve significant amount of staff time in reviewing
these requests. Alternatively, these signs have been seen placed, or attached to other public signs, no
parking signs or telephone poles. This could also result in additional efforts on the part of Public
Works cleaning brackets and connectors off public signage, and removing nail and staples from
telephone poles.
.
The Engineering staff is not aware of any City in the metropolitan area that allows placement
of this type of sign in public right-of-way. Public Works invariably ends up dealing with cleanup of
abandoned or damaged signs. The Engineering Department is concerned that it would be involved
in policing of this ordmance to insure that the signs installed do not exceed the limit.
Therefore, the EngineeringlPublIc Works Department does not support any aspect of this
proposal.

Future of Cayuga
June 25, 1999
The Cayuga was given to the City by Elaine Aiple when the Aiple operation closed last year.
The boat has remained moored at its south Aiple Property location. Smce recelving the boat, the
windows have been boarded up and recently the hull plugged. The boat is an on-going security
and mamtenance responsibility of the City. Currently, access to the boat is easy and vandalism
has occurred regularly. Besides the hull, the roof of the boat leaks and is in need of repair.
There are several alternatives for the future of the boat. The City could attempt to sell the boat or
gtve it away. If there is no interest, the boat would have to be removed from the river and
salvaged.
The Aiple Property Park Plan shows the boat as an mterpretive center.
If the boat is kept by the City for future use, the boat would need to be repaired and restored to a
better condItion. Based on ballpark estImates, this could run from $25,000 to $50,000.
The CIty has received three calls regarding the boat since the Council referred the item to staff.
One person was interested in possibly purchasing the boat, one person offered his services to
auctIon the boat off and one person offered his services to take it over and repair it during the
next three to five years in order to moor a boat off the Aiple Property. TIns offer could aid the
CIty m its responsibility for the boat and security of the Aiple Property until the park is
constructed
This item is brought to the CouncIl as an update for further direction.
Recommendation: Direction regarding Cayuga.

Dear Bob:
This letter is the City of Stillwater's written 3o-day notice to cancel its contract for cleaning
services with Coverall, effective August 1,1999. Although we are canceling the contract, we do
expect to see quality service throughout the I'P.fI1a1nder of the contract.
Mark Riesdorf and I have scheduled strip and rewax and carpet extraction for the Police
Department floors on July 10, 1999. The City has already paid for the strip and rewax on the
May 3, 1999 invoice. The Police Department floors were being completed on another day from
the rest of City Hall due to scheduling.
Please have your representatives leave all keys on my desk after the cleaning has been completed
on the evening of July 30, 1999.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me at (651) 430-8805.

Dear Mayor Kimble:
We would like to recognize the good experience we've had
with the Director of Parks, Mr. Tim Thomsen. We have had the
need to call upon him twice in the last two years about weeds
growing in the boulevard area across the street from our townhome.
Mr. Thomsen has always been very cordial and willing to make
the the extra effort to improve the appearance of ~he
boulevard and Anez Park. It certainly is appreciated
by our town home community to have someone that is pleasant
and willing to do what is necessary. This cooperation by a
representative of the City of Stillwater makes us all
glad we decided to move to the City of Stillwater.
I think you and the City Council should be very pleased
to have Mr. Thomsen represent this City.
Sincerely,

CITY OF STILLWATER Y2kEFFORTS
.
By now, most people have heard of the "Year 2000 (Y2k) Problem," but may not clearly
understand how it will affect their lives. Although many businesses and governmental entities,
including the City of Stillwater, have been taking steps to address Y2k issues, there is no
substitute for being prepared at a personal level. For communities to be truly prepared,
individuals, families, and community organizations must also take steps to prepare for any
possible disruptions.
A good source of information on Y2k Personal Preparedness is the American Red Cross
website (www.redcross.orw'Y2k.html). Other Y2k websites can be found by linking through the
State of:MN Office of Technology's website (www.v2k.mn.us). that was created to be your one-
stop connection to resources and information on the Y2k Problem as it affects Minnesota.
In order to assist the Stillwater community in personal Y2k preparedness, the City will
host a Y2k Open Forum. A presentation will be given on Y2k & Family Preparedness, along
with updates from City Departments on the progress of the City of Stillwater's Y2k Efforts. The
goal of this Open Forum is to describe the Y2k problem and some of the issues surrounding it.
Most importantly, we hope to dispel some of the myths surrounding this issue.
The Open Forum will be held Tuesday, August 24, 1999 at 7:00 p.m. in the City
Council Chambers. The seating capacity of the Council Chambers is 100 people. lfyou are
planning on attending the Open Forum, you must RSVP to 430-8800 with your IUl1IU! and the
number of attendees.
Please note that the information contained in this communication relates to the City of
Stillwater' s Year 2000 efforts. The disclosure of this information is intended to serve as a Year
2000 Readiness Disclosure under the Year 2000 Information and Readiness Disclosure Act,

Dear Nile,
Work has begun on our cable system upgrade and the City has probably received
some phone calls with questions and/or problems concerning the construction.
MediaOne has a contact person who is dealing with construction complaints
concerning the upgrade and it might be helpful for you to know it (or people can report
problems here and I can call it in): Uz Maher (651) 312-5146.
The cable company will be sending a representative to our next Cable Commission
meeting to make a presentation regarding the upgrade and we invite any City Staff or
CIty Council members to attend if interested. It will also be cablecast live on Channel

in watching it. The meeting will be on Wednesday, July 21 at Stillwater City Hall at

Dear Local Official:
To improve communication with local offiaals and to work more effectively with
communines, the Metropolitan CounCIl is expanding its outreach program. Starting
July 1, you'll be seeing several new faces among the Metropolitan Council"s sector
representatives. These are Community Development DivIsion staffers who serve as
liaisons among Council members, staff and local commumties. Designating five
instead of four sector reps, the Council will be able to increase contact with local
communities at a time when comprehensive plans are due and new Council
members are increasing their visibility in the region.
One of the new faces is Senior Planner Liz Van Zomeren. who will replace John Karl
as a liaison to the cities ofMimleapolis and St. Paul. John will focus on
redevelopment, housing and growth issues. Another new face, Senior Planner,
Patrick Peters, will become the sector rep for Dakota and Washington Counties.
Patrick will replace Carl Schenk: in Dakota County and Guy Peterson in Washington
County. Carl will continue as sector rep for Carver and Scott Counties, and Guy will
concentrate on housing and Livable Communities issues.
.
Sandra Pinel will be the sector rep for Anoka County and northem Ramsey County.
She will replace Guy Peterson inAnoka and northem Ramsey Counties. Tom
Caswell will remain as sector rep for suburban Hennepin County.
The sector representative's job is to be a liaison between the Council and local
government. They will help explain the refexral procedures for comprehensive plan
amendments and answer any questions (or refer the questions to the appropriate
Council staff) related to Council programs and regional services.
A revised sector representative map is attached. along with an updated listing of
Metropolitan Council members. We look forward to working with your community.
Sincerely,

Appeal of Fairgrounds
Conditional Use Permit
The Washington County Agricultural Society, which owns and
operates the Washington County Fairgrounds, has received a
conditional use permit for this facility with a number of
I
conditions. The Agricultural Society is appealing the
restrictions set forth in two of the conditions, the starting time
and the requirement for fencing along the easterly border.
STS Crew Leader Funding
An additional Sentence to Service Crew was approved in the
1999 budget on the assumption that addition state funding
would be available to fund 50% of this position. The County
has learned that the state funding is not forthcoming. The
Court Services Director will be requesting that the Board
consider using contingency funds to maintain the STS crew
through the balance of 1999.
The County Board will conduct a public hearing on the
proposed amendments to the Washington County Mining
Ordinance. This ordinance revision is the next item in the work

Request by HRA for
Distribution of Excess landfall
Project Funds
New Financial Management
System
,Washington County was successful in their legislative initiatives
of changing the length of the term of office for HRA
Commissioners from five years to three years, and to extend
for two additional years the authority to allow property owners
:to have their names withheld from lists that must be provided to
marketing businesses who use these as mailing lists for
soliciting business. Both pieces of special legislation require
adoption by the County Board of Commissioners before they
become effective.
,
;The Washington County HRA has requested the County's
support for payment of $120,000 of the issuer reserve fund
from the landfall terrace project pursuant to the indenture of
trust document. This request is currently being reviewed by the
Accounting Department to determine its consistency with the
bond documents and will be brought to the County Board for
action once the review has been completed
The Financial Management System Implementation Team will
report to the Board on the status of the new system that was
brought on line on January 1, 1999.
