TO: Mayor & Council
FROM: City Administration Hansen
SUBJECT: Franchise Fees
DATE: June 17,2003
BACKGROUND
At the last council meeting, council was gracious in allowing staff to pursue various
means of resolving our current budget crisis, including the possibility of initiating
franchise fees for electric and gas. One Monday, June 17,2003, Dave Magnuson and I
met with representatives of Xcel Energy to discuss same. The meeting was very
amicable and they provided information regarding what a certain level of fees would
generate in dollars. They also had certain requests of their own, such as extending the
franchise and release of bond requirements should the franchises be amended. Since
these are actually two separate franchises, one for electric and one for gas I will discuss
them separately.
ELECTRIC FRANCHISE
The electric franchise fee is allowed by state law and a provision for up to a 5% fee is
already provided for in the current franchise agreement. The representatives from Xcel
recognize the City's ability to impose the fee, but are fearful that a 5% amount may cause
a backlash with customers for both the City and Xcel. They have advised me that they
will be very cooperative on any franchise fee request for 3% or less, but would be
compelled to address customer concerns at the 5% level.
Sample fees generated would be as follows:
1 % fee
3% fee
5% fee
$95,299 per year
$285,896 per year
$476,495 per year
2003 (5months)
$39,708
$119,123
$198,540
There would be very little cost in initiating this fee as the billing would be done by Xcel
and the fees simply paid to the City on a quarterly basis. A 3% fee is recommended as
~
the cooperation ofXcel is initiating the program could prove instrumental to its success
or failure. A total of 20 Minnesota cities charge a franchise fee for electric with more
requests expected.
.
GAS FRANCHISE
Xcel is much more sensitive to a franchise fee for gas. I believe this is based on a
perception regarding fixed income individuals and winter heating bills etc. There is also
concern regarding a prediction for higher gas prices this winter. Xcel representatives
have suggested that a 1 % franchise fee would be workable. In the alternative they
suggested that a $1 fee per month residential, $5 per month commercial charge for meters
might be more acceptable to the public and would offer customers protection from gas
pnce Increases.
Sample Fees generated would be as follows:
1 % fee
$1/$5 meter charge
$82,254 per year (at current price)
$98,824 per year
2003 (5 months)
$34,272
$41,177
Again, there would be only negligible cost in implementing this fee and it would be
handled by Xcel. Of the two options I recommend the meter charge.
I strongly urge council consideration in initiating these franchise fee proposals. I realize .
that the money is not free and that we are in essence shifting some former property tax
dollars to a new form of taxation. However, I am still worried that if we continue to
address the budget shortfall only through service cuts, and not increased revenue, we will
soon reach an unacceptable service level for our citizens.
For those who would criticize this revenue approach I respond that we are controlling
spending having absorbed $750,000 in reductions last year and another $425,000 in 2003.
I personally believe that increasing revenue will be even more important as we address
the 2004 budget as our promised LGA amount will likely be reduced further. A
combined approach of real cuts and revenue increases seems prudent given these
uncertain times.

Memo
To:
Mayor and Council
From:
Kim Kallestad
Date:
June 11, 2003
Subject:
Fire Department Fee Schedule
Here's a list of fire department fees currently adopted.
Incident Reports
Open Burning Permits
Storage Tank Removal Permits
$5
$15
$75
A list of potential fees for fire department services has been reviewed. The following services
are already being provided by the Stillwater Fire Department, and are regulated by the
Minnesota Fire Code. Local ordinances authorizing permits and applicable fees (set by
resolution) would be appropriate, if council chooses to adopt.
Storage Tank Installation Permit (aboveground or underground) $100
Fire Sprinkler System Installation - Inspection Fee* $200
(Plan reviews are conducted and a permit is issued by the State Fire Marshal's
office; Inspections are conducted by the Stillwater Fire Department)
Fire Alarm System Installation Permit - Plan Review & Insp. 1.2% ($75 min.)
(Stand-alone sprinkler monitoring included. Note: Monitoring is installed by
fire alarm contractors, not sprinkler contractors.)
Commercial Cooking Hood Extinguishing System Permit
Family or Group Daycare Inspection
$100
$75
Fireworks are regulated by the Minnesota Fire Code and other state statutes. Recent legislation
has authorized local permits for the sale of fireworks and established a maximum annual fee of
$100.
Fireworks Sales Permit
(Temporary structure or mercantile location)
$100
.
,
In the category of emergency response, the following fees are recommended.
Automobile Fire - Emergency Response & Extinguishment $300 .
Injury Accident - Automobile Extrication $300
Structure Fire $500
Gas Line Rupture $200
Wildland Fires on R.R. Property, Ignited by Trains Time & Materials
Hazardous Materials Incident Time & Materials
(Time fees based on Wash. Co. Fire Chiefs Fee Schedule; materials at cost plus
a 10% administrative/handling fee. Materials typically include fire fighting
foam or specialty products for absorbing chemicals.)
Many insurance companies have provisions in their policies authorizing payments to fire
departments for fires and extrication/rescue services. Although the fees listed are below the
average costs to provide these services, they are typical of insurance policy limits for such.
Contractors cause the majority of gas line ruptures, and would receive the bills. Very few
ruptures are caused by homeowners. State statutes authorize billing railroads for fighting fires
caused by trains, and billing parties responsible for releasing hazardous materials.
Recommendation: Council determine which fees to adopt and direct staff to prepare
appropriate ordinances.
Notes:
*
Sprinkler licensing law prohibits double permits by S.F.M. and local jurisdictions, but
does not prohibit inspection fees. Sprinkler inspections conducted by Stillwater Fire
Department include rough-in, 2 hr. hydro test, timed flow test, main drain, gate valves,
and monitoring; additional tests on dry sprinkler systems include 24 hr. air test, dry
valve trip test, and low air. Multiple site visits (3 to 8, sometimes more) are required
for all new sprinkler system installations.

Procedure. Grievances as defined in Section 15.1 shall be resolved In
conformance with the following procedures:
a. An employee claiming a violation concerning the interpretation or application

g. If, as a result of the written EMPLOYER response in Step 3, the grievance
remains unresolved, and if the grievance involves the suspension, demotion,

Subject: Discussion on Proposed Street Utility Fee
DISCUSSION
At the last City Council meeting, Council had a first reading of an ordinance to implement a
street lighting utility. City staff has examined how such a system would work and also
looked at potential revenue generation. The option of a street lighting utility makes sense in
that everybody in the City benefits from street lights and traffic signals. Even residents that
have little or no city street lighting use our city street system and benefit from the safety
provided by street lights and traffic signals.
.
Since the City of Stillwater already has several utility funds and everybody receives a
quarterly city utility bill, addition of a street lighting utility would be straight forward. In
setting the rates for a street lighting utility, we would need to take into account the street
light systems and the type of users. Similar to the storm water utility, rates could be based
on a per unit basis for residential and a per acre basis for commercial, institutional, golf
course and open space. Each of these categories would have a different rate. In addition
commercial could be broken down into normal commercial and special district commercial.
Special district commercial would consist of properties in the downtown district that benefit
from the extensive lighting there as well as the marketplace area that has it's own street
light system.
The current budget for street lighting and traffic signals is $215,000. This includes
$170,000 for electricity. In addition there is some general engineering and public works
staff dedicated to managing our current system. If we set up a street lighting utility, it
would also be beneficial to accumulate some capital for street lighting project upgrades.
The proposed commercial special district has lighting that will need to be reconstructed as it
wears out. Rather than assessing these costs, they could be charged to the street lighting
utility. This would therefore justify the higher quarterly charges to the commercial special
district.
.
Assuming we wish to capture enough revenue to cover all of the signs and lighting budget
as well as cover staff time associated with lighting and the capital improvements, an annual
revenue of about $300,000 appears to be an appropriate target. Staff has done some very
rough calculations to determine approximately how much would be charged for the various
user groups to achieve a $300,000 revenue. The following chart shows an approximate
quarterly charge that could be implemented to achieve this level of funding.
June 13, 2003
User Cate!!orv
Quarterlv Fee Unit of Measurement
Commercial
$8 per unit
$70 per acre
$100 per acre
$40 per acre
$8 per acre
$0 per acre
.
Residential
(single family, apartments, condos)
Commercial Special District
Institutional
Golf Course
Open Space
Using this formula each residential unit would pay about $32 a year. This would raise
about $200,000. The commercial properties would pay based on the size of their property,
the minimum being an Y2 acre unit which would yield $140-400 per year for the smallest
commercial property. All categories excluding residential would generate roughly
$100,000 a year. The exact level of revenue cannot be calculated unless we reprogram the
AS400 finance computer.
The high rates for institutional and commercial are justified because these areas serve as
major destinations for large numbers of pedestrians and vehicular traffic. Also lighting
systems tend to be centered around commercial areas or at comers where commercial
properties are located. Golf course property has a fairly low rate but the two golf courses .
own significant property. These rates also appear justified in that golf courses generate
significant traffic.
RECOMMENDATION
Council should consider the above information and the political issues surrounding a new
utility fee. If Council wishes to proceed with a street lighting utility for revenue generation
Council will need to have a second reading and direct staff to prepare a fee schedule.
ACTION REOUIRED
If Council desires to proceed with a street lighting utility, Council should hold the second
reading of the ordinance.

Feasibility Report for North Hill Project (project 2000-15)
DISCUSSION
.
The City was recently notified that a grant in the amount of $1.3 M for Browns Creek
Improvements was approved in this years bonding bill at the Minnesota Legislature. This
grant would be used to fund costs associated with the North Hill Improvement Project.
This project would bring utilities (water, storm and sanitary sewer) and new streets to the
North Hill area in Stillwater. A feasibility report for this project was presented and
approved in the summer of2001, but staffwas asked to search for additional funding
options, mainly from the State of Minnesota. Since Council did not order the project
within the one-year timeframe established by state statute, the results of the first
feasibility hearing became null and void.
Staff would like to proceed with the improvements to the North Hill by preparing a
feasibility report. This report would be an update of the previous study and consist of
revising project costs and revising assessment rates.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends council pass a resolution authorizing the preparation of a Feasibility
Report for water, sanitary sewer, storm sewer, and street improvements for the North Hill
Project
ACTION REOUIRED
If Council concurs with the recommendation, they should pass a motion adopting
Resolution No. 2003- , RESOLUTION ORDERING PREPARATION OF
FEASIBILITY REPORT FOR THE NORTH HILL PROJECT(Project 2000-15).
.

BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF STILLWATER, MINNESOTA: That
the proposed improvement be referred to the City Engineer for study and that he is instructed to
report to the Council with all convenient speed advising the Council in a preliminary way as to
whether the proposed improvement is feasible and as to whether it should best be made as
proposed or in connection with some other improvement, and the estimated cost ofthe
improvement as recommended.
Adopted by the Council this 17th day of June 2003.

How will funded component(s) be a catalyst?
Limit 10 lines
The crucial public elements (i.e. the public int... k'...Hve trails, transit hub, sidewalkimproveinents, central
plaza and parking structure)would.not be constructed without the Grant. .Other sources of funds to assist
with project costs include tax base revitalization or TIF Funds. The proposed project would be a catalyst
to development of the housing sites but also augment and link the housing to downtown, job, transit and
recreation opportunities. The Success of the private and public components will help spur further infill
development on the north end of town, providing the diversity of land uses needed to sustain Stillwater as
an independent, walkable historic small town.
C. Timing: Describe any time constraints relating to funding sources or use of LCD A funding.
Limit 10 lines
The project would be constructed during the 2003-2004 construction seasons. The improvements would.
be coordinated with adjacent housing developments at the Territorial Prison site and the Lofts site.
Purchase of the railroad right'of way would allow for an enhanced pedestrian corridor between housing
sites and the downtown. If LCDA funds are provided in two phases, the schedule would be extended by
one year.

Components of the study would examine the railroad trail from Laurel to Nelson. The
Main Street Plaza and connection to Lowell Park parking and a structure/flood wall as a
part of the parking structure.
Extensive community participation would be a part of the study. A series of meetings
with design professionals, city committees and commissions, downtown business
representatives and city residents will all have an opportunity for input and comment
on the plans. The result of the study would be a concept plan, including landscape, site
plan and elevation drawing of design concept(s) from visually prominent locations.
The plans will be coordinated with the Lowell Park plan, Levee Project Corp Phase III
and plans for the Lofts and Terra Springs project.
TIF funds will be used to pay for the study.

RE: Stillwater, Minnesota
Water Street Parking Facility, Plaza, Flood
Wall, and Trail
SEH No. P-STILL0301.00
.
Mr. Steve Russell
Community Development Director
City of Stillwater
216 North Fourth Street
Stillwater, MN 55082
Dear Mr. Russell:
Weare pleased to assist you in further evaluating your concept plan for the Water Street parking facility and
the trail through downtown on the old railroad corridor. The two level parking facility would include a
connecting plaza along the Commercial Street alignment between Main Street and Lowell Park, and
incorporate the proposed flood wall system integral with the parking structure. Concepts will also be explored
for multi-level parking north of the Lumber Baron's Hotel and at 2nd and Commercial Streets.
The trail study will develop a comprehensive plan for the railroad corridor from Nelson Street to the site of
the Lofts development.
The scope of services for the Water Street parking facility will include establishing the alignment of the
floodwall and levee to provide 100-year flood protection from Chestnut Street to the location of the proposed
Lofts development project on North Main Street. The alignment will incorporate the parking facility and
provide for access at the plaza, Mulberry Street, and along a trail proposed in the current railroad corridor.
Jeff Johnson will have a significant role in this portion of the project. His experience in many flood control
projects for the Corps of Engineers and his work in the Lowell Park projects will be an asset to this project.
The second task is to develop the fOvtp.;nt and height of the parking facility to accommodate the maximum
number of autos while providing space for the plaza and traffic on Water Street. Greg Finstad's past
experience with parking ramps and traffic circulation will be instrumental in this phase. Greg recently joined
our staff after 33 years of planning and managing parking facilities with the City of Minneapolis.
.
An important and integral part of this project is to provide a connecting link between Main Street and the
river. Mark Salzman of our staff has previous experience in the earlier development of the Comprehensive
Plan for Lowell Park and in his architectural work on the Lowell Park riverfront walk. Mark will further
develop the plan for the connecting plaza and provide not only plan layout drawings, but also line-of-sight
sections and perspectives to explore the views toward the river from Main Street and the plaza and from the
river toward the parking facility.
Planning meetings will be held to gather input and convey concepts with a primary focus on the Water Street
parking facility and connecting plaza. It is envisioned to include the following four meetings.
1. Design Professional - Local and interested architects and planners by invite to a brainstonTIing
dinner meeting to bring out ideas and concepts.

2. City Staff and Commissions - Further develop concepts with City Planning and Engineering staff
and Commissions, such as the Parks, Planning, and HPC.
3. Business Owners and Chamber - Present and solicit input on the concepts.
4. Public - Present the concepts development for public comment.
We will work closely with you and your staff as the project progresses. It is anticipated that the City will
provide information on the earlier layouts and development plans, along with the most recent aerial
photography and contour drawings for use as base maps.
We consider this project to be a dynamic process as we develop options with you. Additional layout
alternatives may develop as the project progresses warranting that more drawings and perspectives are
created. With tl>js in mind, it is proposed that specific project scope, fee, and schedule be left open as the
work progresses. For your budgeting purposes and with our current expectations of the scope of work, we
estimate that the fee for our services to be $50,000.00, and that as an objective, a completion date in early fall
be used. Keep in mind, this scope and resulting fee and schedule may be reduced or expanded as we work to
develop options and graphics to meet your needs.
After your review and consideration, please acknowledge acceptance of our proposal by signing and
returning the enclosed copy.
Sincerely,

Design Plan for Downtown Stillwater North Main Street Housing Infill and
Pedestrian Connection Project
Purpose: Request authorization to obtain design services proposal for preparation of plans and
feasibility information for Downtown Stillwater North Main Street Housing Infill and Pedestrian J
Connection Project.
Background: For the past two years, staffhas worked with the developers of the Territorial Prison
Site, Lofts of Stillwater site, and representatives of the Burlington Northern Railroad on development of
the housing infill sites and purchase of the remaining railroad right of way . Atthis time~ the Lofts pr.'
is scheduled to begin construction in July, the Terra Springs site work and residential developments i '
scheduled for construction this Summer and Fall and the railroad right of way is being purchased.
Attached to this memo is the design concept for the Stillwater North Main Street Housing Infill and
Ped\j,:)~~an Connection Project. Last year, the city applied for a Livable Communities Grant fiv.l.u the
Met council for $2 million to assist with project construction (summary application attached).
In order to proceed with the design development of the pedestrian trail, Main Street Plaza, Lowell Park
connection and Levee WalllParking structure, additional design development and feasability analysis is
necessary. (This Master Plan approach was used with Lowell Park and Levee Wa111mprovements.)
With the plans, the city isina position tocoordiriate adjacent and related development such as the Loft
project or levee flood wall construction with the design development master plan. It is estimated that
such a plan would cost approximately $50,000 and can be funded with 1.lJ:' District 10 proceeds. The
master plan would be completed in time to supplement this years Met Council Livable Communities
application.
. With this approval, staff would obtain a proposal for the design development/feasability work and
return to the Council for fmal funding approval.
Recommendation: Authorization to obtain proposal for Stillwater North Main Street Housing Infill .
and Pedestrian Connection Project.

Larry Hansen, City Administrator
SUBJECT: Outside Sales
DISCUSSION:
A request from Jerry and Mary Mechelke for outside sales of fireworks on
private property at the Lumber Baron's has been received. Typically, this kind of
request would go through the Planning Commission for a Special Use Permit
with a fee of $500 (similar to Linder's Green House in the River Plaza and Cub
Food's outside sales in their parking lot - zoning regulates this type of request on
private property), however due to a misunderstanding Mr. and Mrs. Mechelke
were not informed of the process. Because they have missed the Planning
Commission's June meeting and have already purchased their inventory based
on the information they received, this request is coming before Council tonight.
Staff has contacted the applicant regarding the misunderstanding and they
have agreed to pay the fee. Staff also informed the applicant of the normal
process through the Planning Commission so that next year if they wish to have
outside sales they will be going through the Planning Commission for a Special
Use Permit.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the Special Use Permit for outside sales at
the Lumber Barons, from June 20 to July 4, 7:00 a.m. to 11 :00 p.m.

MEMORANDUM
June 11, 2003
TO:
Mayor and City Council
FROM:
Diane Ward, City Clerk
SUBJECT: 2:00 a.m. bar closing
DISCUSSION:
Attached you will find information relating to the 2:00 a.m. bar closing.
Cities who wish to opt out of the 2:00 a.m. closing will have to modify/affirm their
ordinances to reflect specific closing times. Most cities that go along with the 2:00
a.m. closing need to modify their ordinance to state "Sales of intoxicating liquor in
the city as to hours and days of sale shall be governed by the provisions of Minn.
Stat. ~ 340A.504." The City of Stillwater's Liquor Ordinance, Section 43-74,
Subd. 1, Hours and days of sale, already contains that statement and since it
does the 2:00 a.m. closing will happen by State law without a change to that
section. However, Section 43-74, Subdivision 2, the Sunday Sales Section,
provides a closing time of 1 :00 a.m. Monday and requires a seating capacity of
25 rather than 30 that is stated in the new statute. If we want 2:00 a.m. on
Sunday we need to change this section. (see attached).
As with all the liquor rules, the City can be more restrictive and the Council
could change our ordinance to state a closing time of 1 :00 a.m. if they see fit. St.
Cloud for instance, has never adopted the 1 :00 a.m. closing and all their liquor
establishments still close at 12:00 a.m.
If Council should approve the 2:00 a.m. closing, interested establishments
will have to complete the attached form and have it presented to Council for
approval prior to it being submitted to the State. What this means is that even
though there is an effective date for the statute, it does not mean that beginning
July 1 liquor establishments can remain open until 2:00 a.m., Council and State
approval will be necessary prior to remaining open until 2:00 a.m. Along with this
process, I will be required to certify all liquor licenses to the State whether there
is a 2:00 a.m. closing request or not. The original effective date was August 1
and an amendment for July 1 was added to the bill that was passed which did not
allow a great deal of time to find out exactly what the new bill stated and to
accomplish a process in time for July 1.
~
,
Another concern relating to this bill is the police costs for the 2:00 a.m.
closing. The state will receive $200 - $600 for each establishment who wishes to .
remain open until 2:00 a.m., the City receives none of this fee, but yet our police
department will provide the law enforcement. Staff is investigating the possibility
of adding a City fee to each establishment who wishes to remain open until 2:00
a.m. to help offset police costs (see attached email response from League of
Minnesota Cities). Unfortunately Police Chief Dauffenbach will not be available
for this discussion to provide detailed information on the impact on the police
department. I would request that any decision on the 2:00 a.m. closing or fee
consideration be given when Chief Dauffenbach is available to discuss the
impact.
Should Council table the issue to the next meeting I would still send the
form to the liquor establishments which would give a better idea how many
establishments are interested in the 2:00 a.m. closing (so far I have had two
inquiries). As of this date, there are other cities that are delaying the decision for
various reasons and the State has not received any applications for the 2:00 a.m.
closing (see attached KARE11 article).
ACTION REQUIRED:
Discuss the 2:00 a.m. bar closing issue or table until the next meeting
when Chief Dauffenbach is available to provide the impacts to the Police
Department.
.
If Council wishes to continue the 1 :00 a.m. closing a 1 st reading of an
ordinance amending Section 43-74,Subd. 1 to specifically state closing hours
and removing Section 43-74,Sudb 2 from the ordinance would be necessary.
If Council wishes to go with the 2:00 a.m. closing a first reading of an
ordinance removing Section 43-74, Sudb 2 would be necessary.

Subject: RE: Fees
Diane,
This is a really good question, but I'm not sure I have a really good answer for you at this time.
There are several factors to consider, not the least of which are the statutory caps on license fees for certain licenses. M.S.
340A.408 sets these maximum amounts. Here's a link to the statute: httD://www.revisor.lea.state.mn.us/stats/340A/408.htmI.My
understanding is that these amounts include all administrative costs involved with licensing, which seems to include police
coverage and processing. However, some maximum amounts are not set, such as for annual on-sale intoxicating licenses (other
than club licenses) and annual 3.2% beer licenses. The city sets this fee and there might be more room to adjust the amount due
to increased cost.
I've been in contact with Jenn O'Rourke, Intergovernmental Relations Representative for whom liquor is one of her specialty
areas on which she lobbies. She has had this question asked of her recently is currently working with two of the League's
attomeys to find an answer. She promised to contact me when they've pulled something together. I will forward to you any
information that I find out.

ALCOHOL BEVERAGE INDUSTRY AND LICENSING AUTHORITIES
FROM:
FRANK BALL, DIRECTOR
SUBJECT: 2 A. M. CLOSING LAW, 2003 LEGISLATIVE SESSION (Link to Application Below)
The 2003 Minnesota Legislative Session passed legislation to allow for the sale of alcoholic beverages on the liquor licensed
premises until 2:00 AM. on all days of the week effective July 1, 2003. Licensees will need to apply for a special 2:00 AM. license
from the Alcohol and Gambling Enforcement Division (AGED) and pay a fee based on their previous annual 12 months of liquor
receipts. 3.2% malt beverage licensees, set up licensees, and licenses who have not sold alcoholic beverages for the past 12
months prior to application for the 2:00 AM. license, will pay a flat $200 fee. The 2:00 AM. special license will run 12 months from
the date of approval by the Alcohol and Gambling Enforcement Division.
In addition, the new 2:00 AM. legislation provides that local licensing authorities, (cities and counties) must inform (certify) to the
commissioner (AGED) within 10 days of the issuance of all 3.2% beer licenses. Cities have for many years already been required
to fulfill this certification requirement for all on sale and Sunday intoxicating liquor licenses. Now all 3.2% liquor licenses issued by
cities or counties will also need to be certified to the Commissioner. This licensing authority certification is necessary whetha
not a licensee is applying for the 2:00 AM. Special License. The commissioner provides the form upon request for this certi I n
as described below.
The application for the Optional 2 AM. Special Closing License and the Certification of an On sale Intoxicating Liquor and Sunday
License, as well as, the 3.2% Malt Beverage License Certification is all on one convenient form, Form No. 9011-2AM. This form
replaces the old PS 9011 form, the On Sale and/or Sunday Certification form previously used by cities to inform the Commissioner
of the issuance of their on sale intoxicating liquor licenses. The top part of the new form, 9011-2 AM, contains all of the licensee
certification information, and the bottom section contains a separate section for the Optional 2:00 AM. license, signature
requirements by cities and counties and licensee signatures. The entire form must be filled out completely and signed by the local
licensing authority and the licensee in order to qualify for the 2:00 AM. Special License. The check for the Optional 2:00 AM.
Special License is made payable to the Alcohol and Gambling Enforcement Division (AGED) in the amount indicated on the fee
schedule in the 2 AM. section of the form. Licensees making application for the Optional 2 AM. Special License should verify with
their local licensing officials that local ordinances allow for the sale of alcoholic beverages until 2 A M. The completed 9011-2AM
along with the check for the 2:00 AM. license is sent to the Alcohol and Gambling Enforcement, 444 Cedar Street, Suite 133, St.
Paul, MN 55101
The new Certification of Liquor License or Application for Optional 2:00 AM. Closing Application Form 9011-2AM follows this
memo. If you would like to request the form by mail or fax or if you have any questions regarding the Optional 2:00 AM. Special
Liquor License or the requirements for On Sale Certification or the new 3.2% malt beverage license certification process, please

Several Minnesota Towns Decline Chance to
Extend Bar Closing Time
Last call will stay at 1 a.m. in several Minnesota towns at least for
a while, even though a new state law gives them the option to
extend it to 2 a.m.
Cities such as St. Paul and St. Cloud are delaying changing their
bar hours until at least late July. Even in Minneapolis, where Mayor
R.T. Rybak was a prominent advocate of the 2 a.m. close, gathering
neighborhood opposition could block it everywhere but downtown.
"We're going to opt out" of the 2 a.m. close, Cass County
Administrator Bob Yochum said Tuesday. "Our sheriff says 1 a.m.'s
enough. We've already got one of the highest rates of alcohol-related
fatalities in Greater Minnesota."
And in Ormsby, all three bars in the town of 152 straddling Martin
and Watonwan counties near the Iowa border will voluntarily keep
closing by 1 a.m., Mayor Nick Hager said. The story is much the
same in neighboring towns, he added.
"But if one bar does it, will everybody from the surrounding towns
go there?" he wondered. "Or will it cause problems for that town?"
Minnesota's first major change in bar hours since 1949 has
sparked controversy ever since it was approved last month.
More than 10,000 establishments could be eligible, but as of
Tuesday state alcohol-control officials hadn't received any
applications.
Forms went out only last week, said Marlene Kjelsberg of the state
Alcohol and Gambling Enforcement Division. They must be returned
with the fee and the signature of a local licensing official, she said.
In many jurisdictions whose liquor laws simply mirror state
statute, no formal local government action will be needed to allow
bars an extra hour of business, Kjelsberg said. But where local
ordinances specify closing times -- typically in urban centers -- city
councils or county boards must act to take advantage of the new
state law.
In St. Paul, where Mayor Randy Kelly also lobbied for the 2 a.m.
close, procedural rules will delay a change until about Aug. 1 at the
earliest, said City Council Member Jim Reiter. That means the city's
191 bars will keep closing by 1 a.m. at least until then. A public
hearing on Reiter's proposed ordinance change will be held June 25.
The St. Cloud City Council decided Monday to suspend judgment
on a new closing time for the 54 bars in that city until after a July 29
meeting with officials of nearby jurisdictions.

"They don't want to do anything until they've discussed it with
others," said City Attorney Jan Petersen.
St. Cloud is already an example of a local option when it comes to
liquor rules. The state extended the Sunday night bar closing time to
1 a.m. in the late 1980s, but St. Cloud has kept it at midnight to this
day.
Minneapolis City Council Member Lisa Goodman is pushing for
quick authorization for a 2 a.m. close for all 472 bars citywide. But
Council Member Paul Zerby wants to go slower, at least for some of
the quieter neighborhoods he represents surrounding the University
of Minnesota campus.
A later last call for only downtown could get unanimous council
support, he said Tuesday. "But once you've moved beyond
downtown, let's be more careful," he said.
Goodman opposes what she calls a "patchwork effect" of differing
closing times.
"I don't think the legislative intent was to pick and choose," she
said. "All we'll have is people getting in their cars at 10 minutes to 1.
How does that help the drunken-driving problem?"
That's not a major concern in Cass County, however, Yochum
said. "Eight other counties touch us," he said. "There's no way
around border issues."

408 North Third Street, #203
Stillwater, MN 55082
June 16, 2003
Mayor and City Council,
City of Stillwater
Subject: Impervious Surfaces and Disposal of Water Runoff
Attached is a copy of the two+-page letter that all members of the Stillwater Planning
Commission received to peruse prior to their meeting, May 12, 2003. When the matter of a
variance for a garage at 111 Cherry Street came up, the applicant was asked to sit at the table of
the Commissioners and was given a copy of the attached 2+ page letter to peruse. I responded
when the hearing was opened to the public, and gave a short presentation. I was followed at the
microphone by two other condominium owners of the eight present. They spoke of the matter of
water getting into the basement of the Mount Vernon Apartments, as EVERY property in that
city block diverts their storm water and snow melt onto the west and north sides of the building.
None of the other property owners attempt to drain their properties into Cherry, Linden or
North Third Streets. It is not mentioned in that letter, but the owner of property #120 on Linden
has a long North-South driveway deep into the block, where there are four garages of two
property owners. That area receives the runoff of water from properties #112, 120, 121, and 122,
and is a maze of COMPLETE coverage with asphalt paving. That long driveway should drain
the precipitation runoff into Linden Street IF the asphalt was CONCA VB. Instead it is
CONVEX, and as a result, the water going south toward Linden Street runs off the CONVEX
surface to the EAST! On the EAST side of that driveway, that property has an 1800's very low
wall with many breaks in it, that during the water runoff drains it onto Mount Vernon's back
lawn and parking lot. It super saturates the back lawn as the grass sod slows the runoff, and
seeps into the Mount Vernon garage.
There probably is no other large residential city block in Stillwater that has only one property
ending up with ALL the water runoff, AND with such a HIGH PERCENT of IMPERVIOUS
SURFACE* PROPERTIES purposely diverting ALL of nature's water runoff onto just one
property - and wanting to add more impervious surfaces. AND they have made NO attempts to
divert the water to the curb, that any hydrologist would immediately suggest. That long
CONVEX surface driveway is a prime example of this.

.
The City of Stillwater has an interesting terrain for homeowners; it is not monotonously level.
However, there are many ways that nature's 28" or 30" of annual precipitation can be drained to
the streets and their storm sewers, to prevent devastating your neighbor's property.
On the western plains, where water is a precious commodity, it is illegal to divert water for
irrigation or watering livestock. That is common law as one must share what nature brings. It
also is common law that you cannot divert by adding impervious surfaces and altering runoff of
unwanted water from precipitation onto your neighbor's property if that excess water damages
the neighbor's land or buildings, and without the neighbor's written permission. I believe a
person could easily win a lawsuit against a governmental entity if that water damaged the
property as a result of it.
For the protection ofthe property owners ofthis city, the present impervious surface
ordinances should be enforced. If not, we might see our city being sued if damages occur as a .
result of an unwise variance, or we might see a property owner being sued if the impervious
surface ordinance is violated by "him." Note that on May 12,2003, the Plannill!.! Commission,
with the facts presented to them, very quickly and UNANIMOUSLY rejected the garage
structure that the Mount Vernon condominium owners opposed.
To make the present Impervious Ordinance work, the City of Stillwater must of necessity
notify all contractors and homeowners in the city, and all vendors of materials for driveways,
that the Impervious Surface Ordinance will be enforced.ltlERE MUST BE ACTION TO
REMOVE THE IMPEDIMENT IN ALL CASES OF VIOLATION.
Thank you,
%~ ~f4
Duane Seaquist
* Impervious surfaces include roofs, decks, steps, porches, parking areas for cars, trucks, boats, .
and compacted earth, in addition to the impervious patios; ramps; sidewalks; driveways; and
paths of gravel, crushed rock, asphalt, brick, and concrete.

408 North Third Street, #203
Stillwater, MN 55082
May 10, 2003
Stillwater Planning Commission Chair and Members
Subject: Variance V!03-45 at 111 West Cherry Street
My residence is in the Mount Vernon condominiums at 408 North Third Street, on the second
floor at the north end of the building. The condominiums are directly south of the proposed
garage at the rear of 111 West Cherry Street.
The proposed garage would block my view from my living room, but at a level about three
feet higher, even though I reside on the second floor. That fact is a minor issue compared to
how it will violate Stillwater ordinances, and dump even more water onto the Mount
Vernon premises. The owner of 111 Cherry St. omitted to apply for a "permeability variance,"
which is NOT mentioned anywhere in the two notices that I received from the city.
What the applicant proposes is a double whammy to that ordinance, as it will reduce the
permeable surface of the lot with the addition of a garage, and also increase the
impermeable surface. Their application for a garage and ramp should be DENIED for the
following reasons:
. It already exceeds the permitted impervious surface. (See enclosed note given to me at
City Hall.) Currently that property is in violation, as 60% or more is already
impervious. Note (on the enclosed map) that both sides of that long residence are almost
on the lot lines. The rear of the lot has grass, which the new owners are using to park a
multitude of automobiles.
. The owners currently have a tuck-under garage with asphalt pad for one car east of it.
. Last year, during a heavy rainstorm, the runoff from the north became a CREEK,
washing up on the north walls of apartments 103 and 104, and the threshold of the north
door of the Mount Vernon. I visited that door during the storm. The HIGH wall behind
all of the houses to the north of our condominiums looked like Niagara Falls, with the
water GUSHING over it.
. That very high retaining wall was built to make possible the building of those houses on
Cherry Street!
