ORDINANCE NO. 889
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE SIGN AND
LICENSING CODE TO ALLOW DYNAMIC DISPLAY SIGNS
The Maplewood City Council approves the following changes to the Maplewood Code of Ordinances:
Section 1.
This amendment revises Section 44-737 (prohibited signs):
Signs that are not specifically permitted in this article are hereby prohibited. The following signs
are specifically prohibited:
(3) Signs that have blinking, flashing or fluttering lights. Signs that give public service
information, such as time and temperature are exempt.
Section 2.
This amendment revises Section 44-807 (temporary signs):
(i) Temporary signs with blinking, flashing, or fluttering lights or with dynamic displays are
prohibited.
Section 3.
This amendment revises Section 44-736 (comprehensive sign plan):
A comprehensive sign plan shall be provided for the following: (1) business premises which
occupy the entire frontage in one or more block fronts or for the whole of a shopping center or
similar development having five or more tenants in the project; (2) dynamic display wall signs; (3)
large campuses consisting of buildings and land of ten or more acres, and (4) shared signs.
Such a plan, which shall include the location, size, height, color, lighting and orientation of all
signs, shall be submitted for preliminary plan approval by the city.; provided that, if such
comprehensive plan is presented, eExceptions to the sign code schedule regulations of this
article may be permitted for in the sign areas, and densities, and dynamic display changeover
rates for the plan as a whole if the signs are in conformity with the intent of this article, and if such
exceptionsresults in an improved relationship between the various parts of the plan, and
encourages and promotes the removal of nonconforming signs through the use of shared signs.
Comprehensive sign plans shall be reviewed by the community design review board. The
applicant, staff, and city council may appeal the community design review board?s decision. An
appeal shall be presented to city staff within 15 days of the community design review board?s
decision to be considered by the city council.
Section 4.
Adopt an off-site and on-site dynamic display sign ordinance to be included in the city
sign code (Article III, Section 44-731 through Section 44-1024) as follows:
a. Findings. Studies show that there is a correlation between dynamic displays on signs and
the distraction of highway drivers. Distraction of drivers can lead to traffic accidents.
Drivers can be distracted not only by a changing message, but also by knowing that the
sign has a changing message. In such a case, drivers may watch a sign waiting for the
next change to occur. Drivers also are distracted by messages that do not tell the full
story in one look. People have a natural desire to see the end of the story and will
continue to look at the sign in order to wait for the end.
Additionally, drivers could be more distracted by special effects used to change the
message, such as fade-ins and fade-outs. Finally, drivers are generally more distracted by
messages that are too small to be clearly seen or that contain more than a simple
message.

Due to these public safety concerns, the city should only allow the use of these
technologies with certain restrictions. The restrictions are intended to minimize driver
distraction, to minimize their proliferation in residential districts where signs can adversely
impact residential character, and to protect the public health, safety, and welfare.
Local spacing requirements could interfere with the equal opportunity of sign owners to
use such technologies and are not included. Without those requirements, however, there
is the potential for numerous dynamic displays to exist along any roadway. If more than
one dynamic display can be seen from a given location on a road, the minimum display
time becomes critical. If the display time is too short, a driver could be subjected to a view
that appears to have constant movement. This impact on drivers would be compounded in
a traffic corridor with multiple signs. If dynamic displays become pervasive and there are
no meaningful limitations on each sign?s ability to change frequently, drivers may be
subjected to an unsafe degree of distraction and sensory overload. Therefore, requiring a
limit on display times on dynamic signs is in the public interest.
A constant message is typically needed on an on-site sign so that the public can use it to
identify and find an intended destination. Changing messages detract from this way-
finding purpose and could adversely affect driving conduct through last-second lane
changes, stops, or turns, all of which could result in traffic accidents.
In conclusion, the City of Maplewood finds that dynamic displays should be allowed on off
and on-site signs but with significant controls to minimize their proliferation and their
potential threats to public health, safety, and welfare.
b. Dynamic display sign means any sign designed for outdoor use that is capable of
displaying a video signal, including, but not limited to, cathode-ray tubes (CRT), light-
emitting diode (LED) displays, plasma displays, liquid-crystal displays (LCD), or other
technologies used in commercially available televisions or computer monitors. Signs with
this technology which are placed by a public agency for the purpose of directing or
regulating pedestrian or vehicle movement are exempt from this ordinance.
c. Noncommercial dynamic display signs are allowed wherever commercial dynamic display
signs are permitted and are subject to the same standards and total maximum allowances
per site or building of each sign type specified in this chapter.
d. Standards for all dynamic display signs:
(1) The images and messages displayed on the sign must be complete in themselves,
without continuation in content to the next image or message or to any other sign;
(2) Every line of copy and graphics in a dynamic display must be at least seven inches
in height on a road with a speed limit of 25 to 34 miles per hour, nine inches on a
road with a speed limit of 35 to 44 miles per hour, 12 inches on a road with a
speed limit of 45 to 54 miles per hour, and 15 inches on a road with a speed limit
of 55 miles per hour or more.
(3) Dynamic display signs must be designed and equipped to freeze the device in one
position if a malfunction occurs. The displays must also be equipped with a means
to discontinue the display if it malfunctions, and the sign owner must stop the
dynamic display within one hour of being notified by the city that it is not meeting
the standards of this ordinance.
(4) Dynamic display signs must meet the brightness standards contained in
subdivision (h) below
August 11, 2008 6

City Council Meeting Minutes
e. On-site dynamic display signs are allowed subject to Article III (Sign Regulations) of the
city?s zoning code, the above-mentioned standards for all dynamic display signs, and the
following additional conditions:
(1) Located in the Business Commercial (BC) or Heavy or Light Industrial (M-2 and M-
1) zoning districts only.
(2) The images and messages displayed on the on-site dynamic display sign must be
static and each display must be maintained for a minimum of two minutes; and the
transition from one static display to another must be instantaneous without any
special effects.
(3) Are allowed as part of a permanent freestanding sign, provided that the sign
comprises no more than 50 percent of the total square footage of said sign face.
(4) Must be located at least 200 feet from any property which there exists structures
used for residential purposes or from any park or open space land use district.
(5) Must be located at least 100 feet from any side property line.
(6) Display and advertisement of products, events, persons, institutions, activities,
businesses, services, or subjects which are located on the premises only or which
give public service information.
f. Off-site dynamic display signs are allowed subject to Sections 44-836 ? 44-841
(Billboards) of the city?s zoning code, the above-mentioned standards for all dynamic
display signs, and the following additional condition:
The images and messages displayed on the sign must be static and each display
must be maintained for a minimum of 15 seconds and the transition from one static
display to another must be instantaneous without any special effects.
g. Incentive. Off-site signs do not need to serve the same way-finding function as do on-site
signs and they are distracting and their removal serves the public health, safety, and
welfare. This clause is intended to provide an incentive option for the voluntary and
uncompensated removal of off-site signs in certain settings. This sign removal results in
an overall advancement of one or more of the goals set forth in this section that should
more than offset any additional burden caused by the incentive. These provisions are also
based on the recognition that the incentive creates an opportunity to consolidate outdoor
advertising services that would otherwise remain distributed throughout Maplewood.
Reduction of Sign Surfaces
(1) A person or sign operator may obtain a permit for a dynamic display sign on one
surface of an existing off-site sign if the following requirements are met:
(a) The applicant agrees in writing to reduce its off-site sign surfaces by one by
permanently removing, within 15 days after issuance of the permit, one
surface of an off-site sign in the city that is owned or leased by the
applicant, which sign surface must satisfy the criteria of part (2) of this
subsection. This removal must include the complete removal of the
structure and foundation supporting each removed sign surface. The
applicant must agree that the city may remove the sign surface if the
applicant does not do so, and the application must identify the sign surface
August 11, 2008 7
Packet Page Number

City Council Meeting Minutes
to be removed and be accompanied by a cash deposit or letter of credit
acceptable to the city attorney sufficient to pay the city?s costs for that
removal. The applicant must also agree that it is removing the sign surface
voluntarily and that it has no right to compensation for the removed sign
surface under any law. Replacement of an existing sign surface of an off-
site sign with a dynamic display sign does not constitute a removal of a
sign surface.
(b) If the removed sign surface is one that a state permit is required by state
law, the applicant must surrender its permit to the state upon removal of
the sign surface. The sign that is the subject of the dynamic display sign
permit cannot begin to operate until the sign owner or operator provides
proof to the city that the state permit has been surrendered.
(2) If the applicant meets the permit requirements noted above, the city shall issue a
dynamic display sign permit for the designated off-site sign. This permit will allow
a dynamic display to occupy 100 percent of the potential copy and graphic area
and to change no more frequently than once every 15 seconds. The designated
sign must meet all other requirements of this ordinance.
h. Brightness Standards.
(1) The following brightness standards are required for all dynamic display signs:
(a) No sign shall be brighter than is necessary for clear and adequate visibility.
(b) No sign shall be of such intensity or brilliance as to impair the vision of a
motor vehicle driver with average eyesight or to otherwise interfere with the
driver?s operation of a motor vehicle.
(c) No sign may be of such intensity or brilliance that it interferes with the
effectiveness of an official traffic sign, device or signal.
(2) The person owning or controlling the sign must adjust the sign to meet the
brightness standards in accordance with the city?s instructions. The adjustment
must be made within one hour upon notice of non-compliance from the city.
(3) All dynamic display signs installed after August 20, 2008, must be equipped with a
mechanism that automatically adjusts the brightness in response to ambient
conditions. These signs must also be equipped with a means to immediately turn
off the display or lighting if the sign malfunctions, and the sign owner or operator
must turn off the sign or lighting within one hour after being notified by the city that
it is not meeting the standards of this section.
(4) In addition to the brightness standards required above, dynamic display signs shall
meet the city?s outdoor lighting requirements (section 44-20(1)).
i. Public Safety. If city staff determines that a dynamic display sign is not being operated
pursuant to this ordinancedue to its location or display capabilities, city staff can require
that the sign be moved, removed, or modified after notice to the property owner.
Section 5.
Adopt an off-site and on-site dynamic display sign licensing ordinance to be included
in the city licensing code (Article II, Section 14-26 through Section 14-1437) as follows:
August 11, 2008 8

City Council Meeting Minutes
a. Purpose and Findings. The purpose and intent of this chapter is to establish rules,
regulations and standards for dynamic display signs within the City of Maplewood.
b. Definitions. The following words and terms, when used in this chapter, shall have the
following meanings unless the context clearly indicates otherwise:
Dynamic display sign means any sign designed for outdoor use that is capable of
displaying a video signal, including, but not limited to, cathode-ray tubes (CRT), light-
emitting diode (LED) displays, plasma displays, liquid-crystal displays (LCD), or other
technologies used in commercially available televisions or computer monitors. Signs with
this technology which are placed by a public agency for the purpose of directing or
regulating pedestrian or vehicle movement used are exempt from this ordinance.
*State law references ? The 1965 Highway Beautification Act and corresponding state
laws are in place to provide for effective control of outdoor advertisement. Roadside
billboards fall under this category. It is the intent that the cities regulations adhere to these
overriding federal and state statutes.
c. License Required. No person shall operate an off-site or on-site dynamic display sign in
the city without first obtaining a license. Licenses are required to be reviewed annually.
d. License Fee and Term of License. Licenses issued pursuant to this chapter are
transferable from one owner to another. The amount to be paid for a license required by
this chapter shall be equal to the cost of the dynamic display sign permit, established and
fixed by the city council, by resolution, from time to time.
e. Application for Issuance of License. Applications for a license required by this chapter
shall be made to the city on a form supplied by the city, a minimum of thirty (30) days prior

such other information as required by the applicant form.
f. Application Process. The completed application shall be presented to the city clerk for
review by the community development department. If the community development
department finds the license meets the dynamic display sign code requirements, the city
clerk shall issue a license.
g. Inspection. The premises of any licensee under this chapter shall be open to inspection at
any time during business hours by any authorized officer of the city.
h. Duration; renewal. Any license issued under this chapter shall be for one year only, and
the application for renewal must be presented to the city clerk each year. The city shall
have the right not to reissue a license for a dynamic display sign if the sign is found to be
noncompliant with the city?s dynamic display sign code. The licensee has the right to
appeal such license denial to the city council.
Section 6.
This ordinance shall take effect after the city publishes it in the official newspaper.
The City Council approved the first reading of this ordinance on July 28, 2008.
The City Council approved the second reading of this ordinance on August 11, 2008.

Dynamic Display Sign Licensing Fee Resolution 08-08-117
WHEREAS, the City of Maplewood has adopted a dynamic display sign ordinance to
regulate the number, location, and use of dynamic display signs within the city.
WHEREAS, a dynamic display sign means any sign designed for outdoor use that is
capable of displaying a video signal, including, but not limited to, cathode-ray tubes (CRT), light-
emitting diode (LED) displays, plasma displays, liquid-crystal displays (LCD), or other
technologies used in commercially available televisions or computer monitors. Signs with this
technology which are placed by a public agency for the purpose of directing or regulating
pedestrian or vehicle movement are exempt from this definition.
WHERAS, the city has determined that there will be costs associated with additional
monitoring and enforcement of dynamic display signs and as such have included a licensing
requirement and fee for persons who operate an off-site or on-site dynamic display sign in the city
in order to recoup those costs. Licenses are required to be reviewed annually.
WHEREAS, Section 14-27 of the city?s licensing ordinance states that license fees
associated with a license shall be imposed, set, established and fixed by the city council from
time to time.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Maplewood City Council sets the yearly
dynamic display licensing fee to match the yearly sign permit fee for freestanding and wall signs,
currently set at $160 for freestanding signs (including billboards) and $105 for wall signs (2008
rates).

1. Carver Crossing Development ? Consider Approving Development Contract with
CoPar for Settlement of Litigation and Development Plan.
a. John M. Baker, Attorney, Greene Espel, PLLP, 200 South Sixth Street, Suite 1200,
Minneapolis, addressed the council, gave the report and answered questions. Mr.
Baker provided the council with updated information for the record which occurred
after the council packet was completed.
b. Chuck Ahl, Acting City Manager, answered questions of the council.
c. Alan Kantrud, City Attorney, addressed and answered questions of the council.
d. Howard Roston, Attorney, Malkerson, Gilliland, Martin LLP, 200 Sixth Street
South, Suite 1900, Minneapolis, addressed and answered questions of the council.
The following are comments or questions that the Mayor requested be added for the
record to the August 25, 2008, city council meeting minutes.
Mayor Longrie asked if a payment of a special assessment is missed in a particular year
and it?s an assessment against the property but the payment has been missed does the
city have the right to foreclose against that the parcel or parcels? Mayor Longrie said she
was concerned what the remedy for the city is if this doesn?t work out.
Mr. Baker said Section 429 protects city?s under those circumstances.
Councilmember Nephew said to clarify, the assessment gets handed to the individual
homeowners that buy the lots and they pay the assessment over the 15 years or so that
they own the property.
Acting City Manger Ahl said the city would assess each individual lot and then at closing
time most closing companies will not provide funds if the assessments are paid by the
seller so in this case nobody is going to buy the property until the assessments are paid
off by the developer. Should the property not get sold then the city has the first claim
against the property. The city is in front of any mortgage company for the land and can go
in and claim the property if necessary and resell it for its value and the expenses included
in it.
Mayor Longrie asked if the city has the flexibility to reasonably ask for the projected first
year?s lien amount assessment if the city can project what the assessment would be for
the first year in escrow?
Mr. Baker said they were trying to use the security provision to cover the gap and to
protect the city for the gap of what wouldn?t be covered prior to the time it had the ability
August 11, 2008 11

to assess. Because it has the ability to assess, they didn?t try to get additional money to
be paid above and beyond the amount of its preliminary engineering costs. They believed
that getting compensation for the amount of cost the city was going to incur rather than
getting over compensation under these circumstances provided a security for the city.
Mayor Longrie asked if they are going to have a lien that is going to be assessed that they
are going to have to pay, why would it be an over assessment?
Mr. Baker said the $30,000 escrow is the cash escrow for the preliminary engineering
costs that the city is incurring in advance of the ability to assess those things. What this
does is it provides the ability for the city to draw upon that rather than upon its own
resources as those costs were incurred prior to that point. That is the function of this
security provision.
Mr. Ahl said before the city holds its public hearings the city doesn?t have the right to
assess. In order to have that preliminary work done the city is having them post the
$30,000 so the city has no risk. Once the city has gone to an assessment hearing that
amount is levied and therefore the city is guaranteed that money. It is guaranteed by land
rather than being guaranteed by the finances of the developer. It is guaranteed to the city
by the value of the land. The city has their money. The city can go and recover all of those
expenses so in no case is the city out. It is a double security for them and one the
developer wasn?t willing to agree to because the city has their security, why would the city
need security on the security.
Mayor Longrie said Mr. Ahl answered her question, he said they didn?t agree?
Mr. Ahl said correct.
Mayor Longrie said if the city finds them in a position where they need to foreclose to get
their money from the city improvements that were constructed, does Section 429 provide
for the legal cost and the other cost of foreclosure as part of that process.
City Attorney Kantrud said he would say yes. If the city has to go after the city?s cost it is a
taxpayer cost to secure the security and the city would apply that to the property and
either do something with the property or sell it at a public auction for a minimum.
Mr. Ahl said because it is listed on the property tax statement, Ramsey County does that
for the city. Every year there is a list of tax forfeited properties and on the list are the value
of the land to be sold, payment of the special assessments and back taxes to all the
jurisdictions and assessments as part of this. Included in that are all of the administrative
expenses as well.
Mayor Longrie said this is a developer agreement where the city has an agreement with
them, which is different than tax forfeit land. The city has a lien against the land, the city
can foreclose, and the city isn?t looking to Ramsey County to foreclose because it?s not a
tax forfeit situation. It?s that the assessment liens haven?t been paid so in order to get paid
the city has the option that the city can foreclose on the property.
City Attorney Kantrud said on page 14, regarding remedies, the city hasn?t waived any
legal remedies and if the city wanted to take action on the contract the city could sue and
would ask for the fees to remedy the situation.
Mr. Ahl said the city?s intent is to assess the land. If CoPar has sold land to someone and
they have not paid the assessments the city is going against land that may or may not be
owned by CoPar. Whoever pays their property tax statement they pay that to Ramsey
August 11, 2008 12

County and they pay it back to the City of Maplewood. Included in that are the annual
installments. If they default on that the property and it goes tax forfeit anyone taking or
buying tax forfeit property has to pay all the fees so it does go through Ramsey County
and the city gets all their expenses for that collection. The assessments are part of the
property tax statement. All of those expenses have to be cleared before the property is
released once it goes tax forfeit. Tax Forfeit and non payment of assessment are on the
similar statement.
Mayor Longrie said she thought Mr. Ahl said when there is a development and when the
developer sells that parcel to somebody that those assessments have to be paid up front
in order to be able to sell that parcel?
Mr. Ahl said all lending agencies and closing companies have that as a requirement. For
someone to go and buy a parcel from CoPar and for the closing company to give them a
mortgage they would require the seller to pay the assessments. That is not a requirement
of the city. If they have cash on the site and that is the buyer and sellers agreement they
might pass the assessments through at which point someone else may be liable for the
property taxes and special assessments. However, that is very very rare that someone
would pay cash and not have a mortgage.
Mayor Longrie asked if anyone in the audience wanted to speak regarding this item.
1. Ron Cockriel, 943 Century Avenue, Maplewood, addressed the council. Mr.
Cockriel commented on the CoPar property and asked if the developer could build
a show home or two on the south side of Fish Creek. Mr. Cockriel also asked
about the potential of a referendum and if the city would be agreeing on a price for
the property south of Fish Creek. Mr. Cockriel also asked about trail ways and their
location in the area.
2. George Gonzales, 2359 Heights Avenue, Maplewood, addressed the council. His
concern as a resident was regarding a statement in the packet which was provided
by Mr. Baker on page 8, section 2.5, a., ii. The underwriting fee wording needs to
be clarified.
3. Carolyn Peterson, 1801 Gervais Avenue, Maplewood, addressed the council. Ms.
Peterson discussed her concerns regarding the legal questions in the development
agreement.
Mayor Longrie said she personally does not think the council should be approving something
without seeing the final draft of the document. She said this should be tabled until the next
council meeting. This is a very important subject for our community. It?s worth the time and effort
to discuss something important for our community. There are times when you need to draw the
line and say this is what you want for your community and this is what you want your community
to be. This community is ours and that the quality of life is very important. The council has to
stand for what they want. Sometimes you make decisions based upon a quality of life and a
quality of what the council is looking at. She doesn?t want people to lose site of this particular site.
This is Maplewood?s only Mississippi Critical Area. She thinks there is an impact with 174 units
and felt there is no difference from 191 units. Everyone has their own vision and their own idea of
what the quality of life is and what it is that the city should preserve. She thinks it?s important for
Maplewood to have done more for the Mississippi Critical Area because you can?t reconstruct a
precious place like this.
These are the following changes to be made to the agreement: (A new Developers Agreement
was added to the minutes after the August 11, 2008, City Council Meeting from Greene
Espel LLC.)

the development of the Improvements on the Property and the Project in accordance with the
Development Plans and this Agreement. Developer shall construct Developer Improvements in
accordance with the Development Plans and the Ordinances of the City.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary the Developer Improvements may be installed in phases
in accordance with the anticipated phasing scheduled attached hereon as Exhibit H. The parties
recognize that the phasing schedule on Exhibit H is an estimate only. With the exception of compliance
with CUP Resolution condition No. 2 regarding the start of proposed construction and deferral of

Regarding CUP Resolution condition No. 2, a substantial start on the proposed construction north of Fish
Creek shall constitute satisfaction of that condition for purposes of the Development.
a. Developer?s Agreement to Withhold Development on the Referendum Property.
Developer agrees that the Referendum Property shall not be developed and no
Developer or City Installed Improvements shall be constructed on the Referendum
Property prior to June 30, 2009 (?Referendum Date?). Rather, the City may seek
funding sources from any source deemed appropriate by the City for the purchase
of all or a portion of the Referendum Property by the Referendum Date. The
Purchase Price for the Referendum Property shall be $150,000 per Referendum
Lot purchased by the City and, if the City purchases the entire Referendum
Property, the purchase price shall be $2,400,000 (?Referendum Purchase Price?).
In the event that the City notifies the Developer not later than thirty (30) days
before the Referendum Date of its intent to acquire the Referendum Property for
the Referendum Purchase Price, the Developer shall no later than June 30, 2009
(?Closing Date?) convey the Referendum Property to the City for the Referendum
Purchase Price and the City shall complete the purchase of the Referendum
Property by the Closing Date. Both the City and the Developer shall execute all
documents and take all actions reasonably necessary to convey the Referendum
Property to the City in the event that the City timely notifies the Developer of the
City?s intent to acquire the Referendum Property. While the City can elect which
Referendum Lots to purchase, the City may not acquire less than full Referendum
Lots and all Referendum Lots purchased by the City shall be contiguous. In the
event that the City does not timely notify the Developer of its intent to purchase the
Referendum Property by the Referendum Date, the Developer may thereafter, at
its discretion, develop the Referendum Property in accordance with this
Agreement. In the event that the City timely exercises its rights to purchase the
Referendum Property hereunder, the City may also require the developer to
convey to the City some or all green space identified as the Open Space Plan
(Exhibit C, Sheet C-10) (?Green Space?) to the City for the purchase price of
$1.00. In the event that the City acquires the Referendum Property and the Green
Space, the City shall not thereafter develop or permit development of the
Referendum Property or the Green Space.
2.3 City Installed Improvements. In accordance with the Ordinances of the City, the City
Improvements shall be constructed and installed by the City and thereafter assessed to the benefiting
property owners as set forth in this Agreement. The City Improvements shall be completed in
accordance with the phasing schedule Exhibit H and no later than six (6) months after Developer notifies
the City in writing of the need for the City Improvements for any phase of the Development. Time is of
the essence for the completion of those City Improvements for those phases for which the Developer
provides six months? prior notice to the City of the Developer?s commencement of development of that
phase, except that the City may extend this period by up to three additional months because of weather,
by giving 90 days notice to the Developer. The Developer shall have joint approval over the final design
for all City Installed Improvements, provided that both the Developer and the City agree that the final

design for the City Installed Improvements shall be consistent with Exhibit E. The City shall be
responsible for obtaining any required permits for all City Installed Improvements.
2.4 Construction Meetings. At least three (3) business days prior to commencing construction
of the Developer Improvements or the City Improvements (and any Phase thereof), the Developer and
the City shall hold a pre-construction conference.
2.5 Repayment of Costs of City Improvements.
a. Special Assessments.
i. The initial costs of the City Improvements shall be paid by the City. The
costs of the City Improvements shall be repaid through the levy of special
assessments against the Property. The special assessments shall be
payable by installments, and the installments shall be spread over fifteen
(15) years from the date that the assessment is levied in accordance with
Minnesota Statutes Chapter 429. The City will specially assess for the City
Improvements at the exact cost of the bond-sale and at the same rate
issued to the City. The special assessments for each category of Public
Improvements shall be levied as set forth in paragraph 2.8 below and in
accordance with Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 429.
ii. The costs of the City Improvements that may be specially assessed include
only those cost set forth on Exhibit E. The Developer shall reimburse any
reasonable costs incurred by the City for engineering, legal and
administrative services associated with the project, which shall not include
any costs arising from the Litigation or its settlement. The City may assess
for its reasonable underwriting fees. The final costs of such Public
Improvements will be determined in accordance with Minnesota Statute
Chapter 429. The City agrees that the assessments will be spread against
the lots in the Subdivision and subsequent Phases in a manner reasonably
acceptable to the City and Developer, provided, however, that the parties
acknowledge and agree, to the extent permitted by law, that (a) to the
extent any of the City Improvements benefit subsequent Phases, a portion
of the costs thereof that is directly correlated to the benefit derived from the
improvements may, at the request of the Developer, be assessed against
such subsequent Phases, (b) at the request of the Developer, certain lots
to be developed by the Developer shall bear a greater portion of the
assessments charged to the lots in the Subdivision, and (c) the special
assessments shall be paid over a fifteen (15) year period.
iii. Developer and its successors waive any and all procedural and substantive
objections to the special assessments, including, but not limited to, any
claim that any assessment exceeds the benefit to the property served.
iv. Developer and its successors waive any appeals and rights otherwise
available pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Sections 429.036 and 429.081.
2.6 [RESERVED]
2.7 Force Majeure. The deadlines set forth in Exhibit J and the dates for Developer?s and

2.8 Security. Developer agrees to provide financial security as set forth in either Option A or
Option B below (at Developer?s option).
Option A. Prior to preliminary engineering by the City for each phase of the Development,
the Developer shall provide to the City a cash escrow equivalent to the City?s reasonable estimate
of its preliminary engineering fees, determined for the first phase of the Project to be $30,000 and
shall waive all objections to the City?s immediate assessment against the Property of the full
amount of the City?s estimated expenses for the City?s Improvements for each phase. For all
phases of the Development after the first phase, the Developer shall provide to the City a cash
escrow equivalent to the City?s reasonable estimate of its preliminary engineering fees for that
particular phase not to exceed the actual and reasonable costs thereof and shall waive all
objections to the City?s immediate assessment against the Property of the full amount of the City?s
estimated expense for the City for each phase of the Development.
Option B. In lieu of Option A, the Developer shall provide to the City a cash escrow in the
form of a letter of credit for 125 percent (125%) of the amount of the City?s Improvements as
reasonably estimated by the City for each phase of the Development. Said letter of credit shall be
effective until the City conducts an assessment hearing and shall be released when the special
assessments have been levied by the City against all of the lots in the Property for any phase of
the Development. Developer shall provide to the City the letter of credit prior to the City?s letting
of the construction contract for the City Improvements for each phase of the Development. The
City agrees that if the Developer sells lots prior to the levy of the assessments herein for any
phase of the Development, the City will reduce the amount of the Letter of Credit delivered by the
Developer and accept replacement security from the purchaser of said lots in a form of cash
escrow or replacement letter of credit.
III. PLAN PREPARATION, SUBMISSIONS AND APPROVALS

Zick also complained that his comments were not properly being reflected in the City
Council Meeting Minutes.
2.Elizabeth Sletten, 2747 Clarence Street North, Maplewood. Ms. Sletten said on August
19, 2008 she attended the Environmental and Natural Resources Commission meeting in
addition to the planning commission meeting. Her father, Ralph Sletten, voiced concerns
regarding the stability of the KSTP tower due to the man-made waterways. Ms. Sletten
said she was disgusted by behavior of members at both the Planning Commission and
Environmental and Natural Commission meetings and would like for the council to review
the meeting if they have not yet seen it.
3.Dave Schelling, 1955 Greenbrier Street, Maplewood. Mr. Schelling said at each council
meeting he asks questions but doesn?t get answers to all of his questions. He stated he
would be speaking during visitor presentations at each council meeting. Mr. Schelling
requested information regarding the number of employees the city has and the salary of
upper management. He repeated again that he wants the City of Maplewood department
head salaries printed in the city news like it was in November 2006. (Mr. Ahl said the city
posts the top 3 highest salaries on the city?s website but that there are no plans to print
the salaries of department heads. That is public information however.) Mr. Schelling said
he can?t imagine the city buying Gethsemane park for $800,000. The city has to fix the
parks they already have and can?t afford to be buying anymore parks. (Mayor Longrie
asked if Mr. Ahl could get the information to Mr. Schelling that he has been requesting.
Mr. Ahl said the information would be given to Mr. Schelling in the next few days.

4.John Wykoff, 2345 Maryland Avenue East, Maplewood. Mr. Wykoff said his figures are
different than what the city shows regarding what things actually cost in the City of
Maplewood and that the tax payers of Maplewood ought to look carefully at their money
and the cost of running the city. Then there are the lawsuit settlements which big money
continues to get paid out for that. Mr. Wykoff said the dollar amount for the Marlene
Palkovich lawsuit should be made public once it?s settled.
5.Frederica Musgrave, 1949 Greenbrier Street, Maplewood. Ms. Musgrave serves on the

questions things, it?s not included in the records. If you read the minutes and the local
newspaper you?ll find out that the minority opinions aren?t being represented. She sent
emails out to the city attorney and the city council.

responsibility.

EXTRACT OF MINUTES OF A MEETING OF THE

OF MAPLEWOOD, MINNESOTA
HELD: August 25, 2008
Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, a regular meeting of the City Council of the City of Maplewood,
Ramsey County, Minnesota, was duly called and held on the 25th day of August, 2008, at 7:00 p.m.
The following members of the Council were present: All

RESOLUTION 08-08-121
RESOLUTION APPROVING THE MODIFICATION TO THE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM
FOR DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT NO. 1 AND ESTABLISHING
TAX INCREMENT FINANCING (HOUSING) DISTRICT NO. 1-9 AND
APPROVING THE TAX INCREMENT FINANCING PLAN THEREFOR WITHIN DEVELOPMENT
DISTRICT NO. 1
WHEREAS:
A. WHEREAS, there is a proposal to modify the Development Program for Development
District No. 1, and establish Tax Increment Financing (Housing) District No. 1-9 (?Housing District No. 1-
August 25, 2008 6

9?) therein and approve and accept the proposed Tax Increment Financing Plan therefor under the
provisions of Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.174 to 469.1799 (the ?Act?); and
B. WHEREAS, the proposed Modification to the Development Program for Development
District No. 1 (the ?Modification?), and the proposed Tax Increment Financing Plan for Housing District
No. 1-9 (the ?Tax Increment Financing Plan?) have been prepared; and
C. The City has performed all actions required by law to be performed prior to the
establishment of Development District No. 1 and Housing District No. 1-9 therein, and the adoption of the
modified development program and proposed tax increment financing plan therefor, including, but not
limited to, notification of Ramsey County and Independent School District No. 622 having taxing
jurisdiction over the property to be included in Housing District No. 1-9 and the holding of a public
hearing upon published and mailed notice as required by law; and
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the City Council of the City of Maplewood, Minnesota as
follows:
1.
Modification Findings. The City finds, determines and declares that with respect to the
Modification:
(a)
The City is not modifying the boundaries of Development District No. 1 but is,
however, modifying the Development Program to allow for the increased costs associated with Housing
District No. 1-9 as described in the Modification.
2.
Development Program. The Development Program for the Development District as
modified pursuant to the Modification, a copy of which is on file in the office of the City Clerk, is adopted
as the development program for the Development District
3.
Housing District No. 1-9. There is established in the City of Maplewood within
Development District No. 1 a Tax Increment Financing District, the initial boundaries of which are fixed
and determined as described in the Tax Increment Financing Plan.
4.
Tax Increment Financing Plan. The Tax Increment Financing Plan is adopted as the tax
increment financing plan for Housing District No. 1-9, and the City Council makes the following findings:
(a)
Housing District No. 1-9 is a housing district as defined in Minnesota Statutes,
Section 469.174, Subd. 11, the specific basis for such determination being that the 111 unit senior rental
housing facility project will provide safe, decent, affordable, sanitary housing for senior residents of the
city and it will result in the preservation and enhancement of the tax base of the State.
(b)
The proposed development in the opinion of the City Council, would not occur
solely through private investment within the reasonably foreseeable future. The reasons supporting this
finding are that:
(i)
Private investment will not finance these development activities because of
prohibitive costs relative to rental revenues for low and moderate income senior
housing units. It is necessary to finance these development activities through the
use of tax increment financing so that development of affordable senior housing
and other development by private enterprise will occur within Development District
No. 1.
(ii)
A comparative analysis of estimated market values both with and without
establishment of Housing District No. 1-9 and the use of tax increments has been
performed as described above. Such analysis is found in Exhibit V of the Tax
Increment Financing Plan, and indicates that the increase in estimated market
value of the proposed development (less the indicated subtractions) exceeds the
August 25, 2008 7
Packet Page Number
65 of 123
City Council Meeting Minutes
estimated market value of the site absent the establishment of Housing District No.
1-9 and the use of tax increments.
(c)
In the opinion of the City Council, the increased market value of the site that could
reasonably be expected to occur without the use of tax increment financing would be less than the
increase in the market value estimated to result from the proposed development after subtracting the
present value of the projected tax increments for the maximum duration of Housing District No. 1-9
permitted by the Tax Increment Financing Plan. The reasons supporting this finding are that:
(i)
The estimated amount by which the market value of the site will increase without
the use of tax increment financing is $0, and a small amount attributable to
appreciation in land value;
(ii)
The estimated increase in the market value that will result from the development to
be assisted with tax increment financing is $17,979,738; and
(iii)
The present value of the projected tax increments for the maximum duration of the
district permitted by the tax increment financing plan is $1,312,227.
(d)
The Tax Increment Financing Plan for Housing District No. 1-9 conforms to the
general plan for development or redevelopment of the City of Maplewood as a whole. The reasons for
supporting this finding are that:
(i) Housing District No. 1-9 is properly zoned; and
(ii) The Tax Increment Financing Plan will generally complement and serve to
implement policies adopted by the City.
(e)
The Tax Increment Financing Plan will afford maximum opportunity, consistent
with the sound needs of the City of Maplewood as a whole, for the development or redevelopment of
Development District No. 1 by private enterprise. The reasons supporting this finding are that:
The development activities are necessary so that development and redevelopment by
private enterprise can occur within Development District No. 1.
5.
Public Purpose. The adoption of the Modification to the Development Program for
Development District No. 1, and the adoption of the Tax Increment Financing Plan for Housing District
No. 1-9 therein conform in all respects to the requirements of the Act and will help fulfill a need to
develop an area of the State which is already built up to provide employment opportunities and provide
safe, decent, sanitary housing for all residents of the city to improve the tax base and to improve the
general economy of the State and thereby serves a public purpose.
6.
Certification. The Auditor of Ramsey County is requested to certify the original net tax
capacity of Housing District No. 1-9 as described in Tax Increment Financing Plan, and to certify in each

City Clerk
Mayor Longrie made a friendly amendment to include the following for the record. Mayor Longrie
would like to include that the affordable housing units would be extended 10 years past the initial
ten years of the TIF and that would be included in the TIF agreement. That the annual city
payment for city services be included. That during construction the construction jobs include
prevailing wages. That within the Developers Agreement there is mention of the requirement of
the endowment for the permanent affordable units within the project. And to encourage the use of
pervious pavement.
Councilmember Rossbach accepted the friendly amendments.
Seconded by Councilmember Nephew. Ayes - All
The motion passed.
Mayor Longrie said she has been very analytical about this project when this project came
forward and TIF financing was requested. She had some reservations but in the course of time
she has had a number of people call her; (who were big names in the community) asking her to
vote for this project. Perhaps even applying a little pressure for this project. She had not made up
her mind about the TIF financing and said she could have voted either way. But the one thing that
made a difference to her, despite the fact that their new organization isn?t registered with the
Secretary of State because she did her research to understand who the city is dealing with was
when she heard that they have a commitment to the mission and not just the money and they are
August 25, 2008 9

City Council Meeting Minutes
going to have their perpetual foundation. That is the only reason she is voting for this. It ensures
that the TIF is indeed going for what its intended purpose is. Because the TIF provision that they
are using in order to get TIF is that they are going to have 20% affordable housing. If they had all
market rate they wouldn?t be passing the ?but for? test. If it was all market rate they would have
their rate of return that they need. They would be building the project and they?d be done and
over with it. The TIF factor is based on that. By saying you are going to have a perpetual
endowment you can be willing to bet she will make sure and follow up that it is indeed the
promise that is kept. That is the promise and commitment that this council wanted to hear and
that is what the community needs. There are seniors out there who need affordable housing and
that do not have to worry about whether or not they will have a place to live and to live
independently on their own.
Directing the Preparation of the TI Development Agreement for the Gethsemane Senior
Housing Project.
Councilmember Rossbach moved to Direct the Preparation of the TIF Development Agreement

Mayor Longrie said she isn?t confident that staff can negotiate the best price for the park land for
the city. When the question came up regarding what the original rental agreement price was
initially purposed, no one knew the answer. If you were in negotiations you would remember this
information. Mayor Longrie said she believes the green space or park land Gethsemane School
has a commitment to keeping green space is tied to the school because that is important for the
kids and for the school. The green space will stay there whether the city buys it or not. She is
concerned about the amount of PAC funds the city has available. Mayor Longrie said she listened
very carefully to the comments at the Parks Commission meeting and there was a lot of
discussion. There was a lot of concern regarding PAC funds and the lack of prioritization being
done. Some commission members felt this was like advancing this park to the front of the line
when there are other parks waiting for money. She knows there was a lot of neighborhood
concern about this development she heard that they were mostly concerned about the
development itself and how it impacted the character of the neighborhood not with regard to the
green space. Mayor Longrie said the council doesn?t have all the details of the purchase
agreement worked out yet.
Councilmember Nephew said his understanding was that the purchase agreement would be
brought back to the city council for approval and that this motion would be giving a green light to
negotiate the final details which would give something to vote up or down on. Gethsemane
Lutheran Church could decide that they don?t care for the terms of the purchase agreement or
they could propose a lease alternative which could happen in the negotiations as well.
Mr. Ahl said the Parks Commission specifically made a motion that the purchase agreement
come back to the Parks Commission first and then bring it to the city council for approval should
the motion pass.
Councilmember Rossbach moved to Authorize the Preparation of the Purchase Agreement for

Agenda Item K1
AGENDA REPORT
TO
: City Council
FROM:
Charles Ahl, Acting City Manager
SUBJECT: Consider Resolution Modifying Public Hearing Date for the Purpose
of Modifying the TIF District Budgets and Extending the Duration of
Districts
DATE: September 3, 2008
INTRODUCTION/SUMMARY
On July 14, 2008, the City Council received a report from Springsted, Inc. that recommended
revisions to existing Tax Increment Financing (TIF) Districts 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, 1-4 and 1-5. A Public
Hearing was called for September 8, 2008 to consider revising those districts. A publication
error occurred that does not allow the Public Hearing to proceed. A motion to call the hearing
nd
for September 22 is required to allow adequate time for the publication of the notice.
DISCUSSION
The proposed action will result in addressing some of the approximately $300,000 in shortfalls
that have existed in our current TIF Districts specifically due to the revisions to the state tax
collection procedures implemented with the laws of 2001. In the interim, general levy funds
have been used to pay off the 1995 tax increment bonds. If implemented, the intent is to reduce
the amount of general levy funds pledge to these bonds beginning in 2009.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached resolution calling for a public
hearing on September 22, 2008 at 7:00 pm.

Charles Ahl, Acting City Manager
SUBJECT: Consider Approval of Proposed Maximum Tax Levy Payable in 2009
DATE: September 3, 2008
INTRODUCTION/SUMMARY
State law requires that cities certify their proposed tax levies to the County Auditor by September 15
of each year. The proposed tax levy that is adopted and certified by the City Council to the County
Auditor is the maximum amount that the City intends to collect and cannot be increased. The Council
may reduce the amount of the levy based upon additional information and public testimony at the
public hearing on the budget. A resolution is attached that should be adopted to set the maximum
levy.
Summary of Options for Tax Levy
On August 25, 2008, the City Council reviewed preliminary information on the 2009 tax levy. The City
of Maplewood sets it?s levy based upon the following revenue needs:
Operations:
This portion of the levy is the largest and includes the General Fund that finance the majority
of City operations; the Community Center Operations Fund and the Recreation Programs
Fund which have, in the past, required a tax levy subsidy to operate. The portion of the levy
for operations is restricted by the 2008 levy limits to a 3.9% increase plus an adjustment for
growth. The levy limit for 2009 with the growth adjustment is a 4.8% increase.
The 2008 amounts for each of these Funds and the percentage of the total levy is:
General Fund - $11,644,525 (74.9%)
o
Community Center Operations Fund - $ 230,000 ( 1.5%)
o
Recreation Programs Fund - $ 250,000 ( 1.6%)
o
Total 2008 Operations - $12,124,525 (78.0%)
o
Capital Improvements:
This portion of the levy is dedicated to large purchases and on-going replacements. The funds
are used for these purchases are the Capital Improvements Project Fund, the Fire Truck
Replacement Fund, the Parks Development Fund and the Redevelopment Fund. No taxes
were levied for these funds in 2008.
Debt Service:
This portion of the budget is for the Debt Service Fund for payment of principal and interest on
bonded indebtedness of the City. The 2008 tax levy for this fund is:
Debt Service Fund - $ 3,421,925 (22.0%)
o
Summary of 2008 Levy:
The Total Levy for 2008 as revenue for all Funds is $15,546,450.

2009 Maximum Levy

PROPOSED 2009 LEVY
Attached is the proposed maximum levy for 2009. The recommendation is for an operations levy
increase at the maximum level of 4.8%. As part of the 2007 Audit, it was reported that the Employee
Benefits Fund had met all liabilities and that excess funds existed. We are proposing that the extra
funds that are estimated to be $1.2 million at the end of 2008 be returned to the funds that they were
collected from. That results in a transfer of approximately $890,000 back to the General Fund. It is
recommended that this money be used for levy relief over the next 2+ years as follows:
1. An allocation of $348,780 to cover the levy proposed in 2009, 2010 and 50% of 2011 within
the Capital Improvements Plan for Capital Improvement Projects such as the in car video
system for police cars [$126,280]; $150,000 for park system replacements; and beginning to
establish a fund for replacement of the boilers at City Hall.
2. An allocation of $181,640 to the Fire Truck Replacement Fund. This would allow replacement
of a fire truck in late 2009 and another truck in 2013, assuming additional funds are provided
after 2011 to this fund.
3. An allocation of $360,000 to reduce the tax levy increase in the Debt Service Fund to 10.4%.
2009 Expenditures
The Department Heads have presented requests for their department budgets for 2009 based upon
estimated wage increases and benefit increases. Due to the full funding of the Employee Benefits
Fund, departments who are heavily reliant upon personnel can be fully funded and still result in a
budget reduction. This is most apparent in the Police Department. There have been no reductions
and no cuts to the Police Deparmtent request, yet the resulting accounting shifts indicate that the
Police budget shows a reduction of 2.2% over the 2008 allocation. A reference to the 2007 Police
Budget shows that the 2009 request for Police is a 5.5% increase over the 2007 amount, which is
more reflective of the actual increases.
Following are the current proposed expenditures by department:
Department 2008 Budget 2009 Budget
1. Citizen Services $ 970,827 $ 1,019,200
2. Executive $ 1,069,653 $ 1,203,300
3. Finance $ 594,502 $ 619,690
4. Fire $ 1,812,357 $ 1,868,490
5. Inspect, Plan, Bld Op $ 2,125,794 $ 2,109,830
6. Legislative $ 156,128 $ 153,030
7. Police $ 7,807,835 $ 7,633,200
8. Public Works $ 3,490,363 $ 3,671,750
9. Additional Insurance $ 0 $ 250,000
10. Total Expenditures $18,027,459 $18,528,490 [2.8% increase]
Note that additional revenues of $5,900,000 are part of the General Fund that offset the need for
additional levy. The $250,000 listed as additional insurance is funding set aside to cover
unanticipated expenses for lawsuits, funding for employee wage increases above that budgeted and
other unanticipated expenses. Based upon this plan, the likely fund balance percentage will be set at
36.9% [with the additional $250,000 in reserve] of revenues. During October, each Department will
present their budget for consideration and discussion.

TAX BASE ISSUES
Preliminary information on Maplewood?s tax base indicates that total property values will likely show
a decrease of approximately 2.5%. Full breakdowns are not currently available, however, indications
are that residential values will, on average, be down by 6%, while commercial / industrial values will
be up over 9%. This confirms the reverse in the trend of the early 2000?s that showed the percentage
of property taxes collected from residential properties was quickly rising.
Following is current Estimated pay 2009 values for Maplewood:

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached resolution that establishes the maximum
levy for 2008 payable in 2009 at 4.8% increase for the operating levy and an additional 1.2% increase
for the Debt Service Levy.

Karen Guilfoile, Director Citizen Services
RE: Direction on Destruction of City Records
DATE:
August 20, 2008
Background
As staff continues to create electronic files for all permanent records, the minutes for City
Council Meetings from 1970 to date have been scanned into Laser Fiche.
According to IT Director, Mychal Fowlds, Laser Fiche, the software that manages our
permanent document repository, is backed up on a daily basis. With our current backup
schedule, backups of the images and database are done nightly with the monthly
backup stored off-site. With our new backup schedule, which will be implemented by the
end of August, nightly backups will continue to occur but all backups will be stored off-
site further increasing our preparedness for disaster recovery.
The Minnesota Historical Society has been contacted to inquire if the minutes should be
sent to them for permanent storage. Since our records have been scanned into Laser
Fiche, and therefore are considered the permanent record, the MN Historical Society is
not interested in obtaining them.
In the event that the city council directs staff to destroy the records, the Maplewood
Historical Society and the Historical Preservation Commission will be contacted to see if
they are interested in storing them. If not, a member of the city council has indicated an
interest in obtaining them.
Recommendation
It is requested that council direct staff to first contact the Maplewood Historical Society to
see if they are interested in obtaining the records. If they are not, the Historical
Preservation Commission will be contacted. In the event that neither is interested in
receiving the records, the interested member of the council will be contacted.
The records will not, however, be transferred to the Society, Commission, or to the
council member until approval of a resolution by the council is obtained stating that the
records will be given away or destroyed.This resolution will then be submitted to the
State.
