local organizations, set parameters, and issue will be presented at the next city council

projects she is currently working on. City Manager Mike McGuire first presented
information on the proposed mall office customer service representative /volunteer

the mall office in the afternoons. Council inquired if there is grant money or assistance
from the county or school districts for the position. Mike McGuire then presented
information on the proposed south end satellite office. He said that Carver Elementary
School is not interested in sharing space so he will pursue the nearby fire station with a
public service counter for 75% of the time. "Colleen Dirkswager then reported on her
follow up work from the March 22 City Council meeting in the Carver Gym where
residents spoke about the increasing deer population. Council wants more information on
the Metro Bowhunters Resource who provide harvesting services for metropolitan cities.
Council also wants a clarification on the city's partnerships with the City of St. Paul and
Ramsey County which are necessary because the deer migrate into these areas from the
south Maplewood area. Colleen also provided council with an update on a number of
other current projects she is working on.
Fe CITY MALL SECURITY SYSTEM BID OPENING

received to install a security system in city hall. ADT wrote the specifications which will

will aggressively solicit other bids from reputable security firms and provide the bid
tabulations to the city council at the next regular council meeting.

RE: REVISION OF CRITERIA FOR CANCELLATION OF AMBULANCE BILLS
DATE: Ma 3, 1999
PROPOSAL
It is proposed that the criteria for cancellation of ambulance bills be revised to have the
same limit on li assets as the Medical Assistance pro
BACKGROUND
On 3-10-97 the Cit Council authorized the Finance Director to cancel ambulance bills
for individuals if their adjusted monthl net household income is under 185% of the
most current Federal Povert Guidelines and their total li assets are under $2,000.
Before a bill is canceled, the applicant must submit an application form with income
and asset information.
The attached letter dated 4-27-99 from Judith Orchard, HealthEast Senior Partners
Care Coordinator/Advocate, re that the asset guideline for cancellation of
Maplewood ambulance bills be re-evaluated. The current li asset limit for the
Medical Assistance pro is $3,000 for individuals and $6,000 for couples. Also, an
additional $1,500 per household member is allowed if it is desi for burial
expenses.
The income guideline for cancellation of Maplewood ambulance bills exceeds the
amount allowed under the Medical Assistance pro Therefore, it would be
appropriate to increase the limit on li assets from the present $2,000 to the current
li asset limit for the Medical Assistance pro
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the criteria for cancellation of ambulance bills be revised to
have the same limit on li assets as the Medical Assistance pro

RE: Ambulance Bills for Ray Baker
Dear Mr. Faust,
Pursuant to our phone conversation today regarding your denial of Mr. Baker's request for
a hardship writeoff of his ambulance bills for the City of Maplewood. You stated that Mr.
Baker had exceeded the Asset guidelines set by the Maplewood City Council. The asset
declared by Mr. Baker is $5,152.25 in stocks. We respectfully request that the asset
guideline restriction for the City of Maplewood be reviewed and amended.
SENIOR PARTNERS CARE PROGRAM
Mr. Baker has met criteria for the Senior Partners Care Program. This project wasgp1
developed in 1974 by the Minnesota Senior Federation and the Minnesota Hospital
Association. The program was developed to provide eligible seniors with affordable health
care with participating providers. The program is administered by the Minnesota Senior
Federation and is available statewide. The hospitals, physicians and providers participating
in Senior Partners Care agree to accept Medicare reimbursement in full for Medicare
approved services. Although ambulance charges are not included in this program, as well
as hearing aids, eyeglasses, etc., because the Senior Partners Care enrollees cannot afford a
supplemental insurance and have meta financial guideline, many providers of these
services w i l l voluntarily write off balances not paid by Medicare.
The 1998 criteria for Senior Partners Care eligibility is as follows:
GROSS INCOME
1,342 /Month - for Single
16,100 /year for single
1,808 /month for couple
21,700 /year couple
ASSET LIMIT
28,000 - $32,900
28,000- $32,900
Home and car are exempt)
Rooted in Judeo- Christian values, our Mission is
high quality, compassionate, cost - effective health care for the communities we serve.

Mr. Baker rents low - income housing and has routine expenses as follows:
Car insurance, telephone, electric, gas, fuel for car, apartment rental. He is currentl
making monthly payments on a very old dental b i l l for his wife. He has clothing and
miscellaneous expenses for his wife, who is currently in a nursing home and pays monthly
for her care (which amount is based on his limited income). His income from social
security for himself and his wife, plus $68.00 pension totals $1390.00 /month.
Maplewood City Ambulance provided ambulance service to Mr. Baker as follows:
1 -10 -99 Total Charge $631.60
Medicare paid $284.30
Balance Owed by Mr. Baker $347.26
1 -31 -99 Total Charge $623.30
Medicare paid $280.95
Mr. Baker paid $101.37
This payment was inadvertently
paid by Mr. Baker to City of Maplewood -- this
was a payment Medicare paid for
an ambulance trip by HealthEast and should
have been paid to HealthEast — Mr. Baker
subsequently had to pay HealthEast $101.37 in
addition to the $101.37 he paid to Maplewood.
HealthEast has written off balances not paid
by Medicare).
Balance Owed by Mr. Baker $240.98
Mr. Baker's monthly income and monthly expenses clearly do not allow for any additional
payments, without creating a hardship. Also, the $20.00 payments he has agreed to would
take 2 years and 5 months to complete. The cost effectiveness of the monthly billing and
payment procedures for some 29 months would seem questionable.
The Senior Partners Care program was established for people just like Mr. Baker. Most of
these people exceed the Medical Assistance guideline, which has a $3000 liquid asset for
single and $6000 for couple. Medical Assistance is based on income of $420 /month for
single and $525 /month for couple. Medical Assistance, of course, covers practically Al
health care services, including prescriptions, while Medicare does not. Thus the need for a
Senior Partners Care program.
PAGE THREE
RECOMMENDATION
Based on the liquid asset limitation set by Senior Partners Care ro ram ofpg $28,000-
32,900, as well as the liquid asset limitation set by Medical Assistance of $3-6,000, it
would appear that the asset guideline set by the City Council for City of Maplewood
needs to be re- evaluated.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. Please call me at 651 -232 -4818 if you haveY
questions. We look forward to your response.

fiction by Council:
Endorsed_______
Modified...... TO: City Manager Reeeted_______.FROM: Thomas Ekstrand, Associate Planner Date
SUBJECT: Review of Ramsey County Correctional Facility 1998 Annual Report
LOCATION: 297 Century Avenue South
DATE: April 30, 1999
INTRODUCTION
The :conditional use permit (CUP) for the,, Ramsey County Correctional Facility requires that the
county submit the facility's annual report to the city manager for review. Refer to the motion on
page 2, the annual report on pages 3-8 and the letter from Mr. Cavara dated March 5, 1999 on
pages 9-10.
DISCUSSION
The 1998 inmate data exceeds the CUP requirements in two ways. The percentage of felon
inmates was at 30 percent for 43 days last year. The council had required no more than 29
percent be felon inmates (condition 2a). The second statistic that exceeds the CUP limit is that
there were more than 293 total number of inmates. The average daily inmate population in 1998
was 325. The applicant explains the reasons for the increased inmate population on pages 9-10.
Basically, the population increase is due to a combination of housing up to 30 inmates a day from
the Adult Detention Center (ADC) in St. Paul and longer sentences.
Staff does not see any reason to reconsider the applicant's CUP because of these increases.
The applicant is operating under the purview of their licensing agency, the Minnesota
Department of Corrections, and must meet their criteria for operating. Furthermore, there have
not been any complaints or problems resulting from the facility. As long as the facility is in
compliance with their license, and there have not been any problems to the community, Staff
feels that the city council should accept Mr. Cavara's report.
RECOMMENDATION
Accept the 1998 annual report of the Ramsey County Correctional Facility.

Dear Mr. Eckstrand:

The following is my analysis of specific RCCF data, when in
combination with each other, affected the size of our daily
population:
Tel: (651) 298 -5466
Fax: (651) 298 -5451
1. 1998 annual admission increased upward 120 (N =427) over 1997. 183
43%) of these were jail inmates we were holding for the Adult
Detention Center due to their overcrowding and; 244 (57 %) were
our regularly sentenced inmates.
We agreed to house up to thirty inmates per day from the ADC, and
we averaged 23 per day, with an annual length of stay of 21 days.
The facility obtained a variance from the Department of
Corrections, which is our licensing agency, to house these inmates
and to once again use our basement industry area to house our low -
risk inmates in order to accomodate the jail inamtes within our
regular housing dormitories.
2. Our average length of stay increased by 2.5 days, from 28 in 1997
to 30.5 in 1998 This is considered a very high increase in one
year. Examining all sentenced offenders, we find that this is due
to longer sentences meted out to DWI offenders. In fact, 65
offenders received sentences of one year, four times more than in
1997 with 6 persons sentenced to two years, and 3 to a year and a
half. Upon further examination, it seems that this "get- tough"
attitude by the courts towards DWI offenders also affected other
offense categories, as most sentences meted out for non -DWI
offenses increased signifcantly.
3. The combination of increased admissions and an increase in length
of sentences, was the primary reason for the 19% increase in the
average daily population of 273 in 1997, to 325 in 1998.

4 . The type of offenses remained basically the same. 30% of the pop-
ulation being sentenced for felonies and 66% for misdemeanors and
gross misdemeanors.
5. There are no further changes in the population that display any
specific trends of any statistical merit.
6. Our functional capacity is listed as 290 inmates per day which
defines our most practical number with which to deal with, both
for programming and work goals, and providing us the opportunity
of keeping sufficient number of beds unused to deal with any
extraordinary admissions increases.
The rated capacity of 316 is established by the Department of
Corrections which is defined by the legal number of inmates times
the -minimum square footage. of living and programming space
required per inmate. This includes beds, dayrooms, shower and
toilet facilities. This then gives us the legal number of inmates
we can actually hold at any one time. Due to the housing of jail
inmates, a variance was required, and received, from the
Department of Corrections to surpass th3 316 figure and also use
another area to house the additional jail inmates.
Based on our steady increase in admissions since 1989, not having less
than 3,000 admissions per year since 1994, and going up, tougher
sentencing laws continuing to be passed by the state legislature, it
is anticiapted that we will continue to experience 300+ average daily
populations over the forseeable future.
The increase in the number of persons confined should, not, however,
be of a safety or security concern for the public at this time. The
facility can manage these numbers, and we maintain a strong
classification system within the facility that does not allow placing
inappropriate and high -risk inmates in situations that allows them to
interact freely with the public. Security and safety, of teral l , are
our major concerns, and will continue to be so.
I am hoping that this information is helpful to you. If you desire
additional information or feedback, please feel free to call upon me.
Sincere y,

The Maplewood Police Department and their Cadet Explorer Post have received an
award from the Indianhead Council of the Boy Scouts of America.
Background
For many years, the Maplewood Police Department has sponsored a Cadet Explorer
Post for youth in our community.
The Cadets are young people who may be interested in a future career as a police
officer, and they participate in year -round training which gives them an overview of the
types of situations officers deal with on a daily basis. They also assist the City of
Maplewood at many events throughout the year.
At a banquet on April 15, 1999, our Cadets accepted the 1999 Spurgeon Partnership
Award, which was presented to the Maplewood Police Department "In Recognition of
Exceptional Commitment to Career Education for Young Men and Women Through the
Career Exploring Program."
Recommendation
It is recommended that the Maplewood Police Cadet Explorers and their Advisors be
recognized for this award and their continuing contributions to the City of Maplewood.

Cub Scout Pack 64 is having a fund raiser rummage sale at Cross Lutheran Church on May 16, 1998. In
conjunction with the rummage sale, they are requesting a food permit to sell hot dogs and pop to raise
additional money.
Cub Scout Pack 64 is located out of Webster Elementary School. As part of scouting, the members
participate in activities that teach them responsibility and creativity. Some of the events planned for this
year are: scouting for food, pinewood derby, winter camping, and baseball.
To help support these activities, the Pack raises money each year conducting fund- raising events. This year
they have chosen to have a rummage sale at Cross Lutheran Church. To raise additional funds, they have
applied for a special one -day food permit to sell hot dogs and pop to those attending. They are requesting
that the City waive the $41.00 permit fee. The fee was waived by Council last year.
The funds that are raised on May 16, will go into the Cub Scout Pack 64 activity fund. It is recommended
that the City Council approve the miscellaneous permit to sell food at the Cross Lutheran Church and to
waive the $41.00 permit fee.
Agenda I
MEMORANDUM
TO: City Manager
FROM: Thomas Ekstrand, Associate Planner
SUBJECT: Pep Boys Automotive Center
LOCATION: South of 2570 White Bear Avenue
DATE: April 28, 1999
INTRODUCTION
Project Description
Action bi Council:
Endorsed..,
Modified
ReJ ected.,
Dat e
Pep Boys Automotive Centers are proposing to build a Pep Boys automotive service garage and
auto parts store on White Bear Avenue south of NTB (National Tire and Battery, 2570 White
Bear Avenue). Refer to the enclosed plans and the attachments on pages 10 -12. The proposed
building would be one story tall and have an exterior of brick, rock -face concrete block and
E.I.F.S. (Exterior Insulation Finish System).
Requests
The applicant is requesting that the city approve:
1. A 55.5 -foot wetland buffer variance. The applicant is proposing a buffer that ranges from
44.5 to 86 feet. The city code requires a 100- foot -wide setback (wetland buffer) from the
wetland edge behind the proposed building. The wetland buffer is to protect the adjacent
wetland to the east that the Ramsey- Washington Metro Watershed District has classified as
a Class 1 wetland. Class 1 wetlands are those with conditions and functions most
susceptible to human impact, are most unique, have the highest community resource
significance and similar characteristics.
2. A conditional use permit (CUP) for a maintenance garage. Refer to the applicant's letter on
pages 13 -20.
3. The architectural, site and landscape plans.
DISCUSSION
Wetland Buffer Variance
This proposal is essentially the same as the National Tire and Battery variance request in 1997.
The council granted NTB a wetland -buffer variance to encroach within 40 feet of the wetland
edge --the applicant would encroach to within 44.5 feet of the wetland. The council granted NTB
their wetland -buffer variance because:
1. The 100 -foot -wide wetland buffer requirement would make development of this site difficult.
The difficulty was created by the new ordinance.
2. The variance would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the ordinance, since the
applicant would improve the quality of the wetland buffer substantially over its present state.
The reasons are the same to support the Pep Boys request. The main benefit is that the
applicant would improve the quality of the buffer and provide a storm - water /pre - treatment pond
for improving the runoff quality before it enters the wetland. The Ramsey - Washington Metro
Watershed District staff has accepted the proposed grading and drainage plan including the
wetland - buffer reduction. (Refer to the letter on page 21.)
As a condition of granting this variance, the city should require that the developer dedicate the
entire easterly portion of the site as a wetland buffer. The code requires a wetland buffer
already. Including the high ground in the southeast quadrant of the site would ensure that there
would be no future development of the site that would impact the wetland.
Conditional Use Permit
The Pep Boys meets the findings for CUP approval and would be compatible with the
existing development in the area.
Design considerations
Building Aesthetics
The proposed building design would be compatible with the surrounding development. There
would be brick detailing on the front and sides. The rear elevation, however, is proposed to be
smooth concrete block. Staff feels that the applicant should revise this back view to be a rock -
face block as proposed on the front and sides of the building and as required of NTB. The rear
elevation should also be painted to match the color and pattern shown on the front and sides.
Landscaping
The landscaping would be attractive and the plantings proposed by the wetland would be
attractive and beneficial to the wetland quality. All landscaped areas should be served by lawn
irrigation except for the plantings proposed adjacent to the wetland. An in- ground lawn irrigation
system in this area would further disturb the wetland buffer. The water table in this area is high
enough to offset any benefit gained by lawn irrigation.
The applicant is meeting the tree - removal /replacement code. The code requires the replacement
of the 15 large trees that would be removed. The landscape plan accomplishes this with the 31
new trees that are proposed. The applicant's landscape designer will look into whether there is
room to add trees next to the neighboring building to the south. The neighboring property owner
requested some trees for a visual buffer.
Increased, Buffer
The site plan should also be revised to increase the setback from the south lot line to provide a
wider buffer from the neighboring professional building. The applicant felt they could revise the
plan to increase this setback by five feet by narrowing the northerly green strip and shifting
everything to the north.
Parkin
The applicant is meeting the parking code with the proposed 101 spaces. The code requires 95.
Roof - Equipment Screening
Roof -top mechanical equipment, that is visible from roadways or nearby properties, must be
painted to match the building. The city code no longer requires individual screens around such
units. The community design review board (CDRB) may require building designs that hide these
units, however.
Lot Combination
The three lots and vacated streets comprising this site should be combined as one legally -
described parcel before the building permit is issued. This is necessary since the building
official requires a lot to meet setbacks from lot lines. The building, therefore, cannot overlap lot
lines.
Cross Easements
This site will share a driveway access and a parking lot connection with NTB. The applicant
should get cross easements with NTB before obtaining a building permit. This may have been
handled when NTB built, if not, the applicant should obtain this easement.
COMMITTEE ACTIONS
April 19, 1999: The planning commission recommended approval of the wetland- setback
variance and the CUP.
April 27,1999: The community design review board recommended approval of the plans.
RECOMMENDATIONS
A. Adopt the resolution on pages 22 and 23. This resolution approves up to a 55.5 -foot wetland
buffer variance for the proposed Pep Boys Automotive Center south of 2570 White Bear
Avenue. Approval is based on the following findings:
1. Strict enforcement of the code would cause undue hardship because of circumstances
unique to the property and not created by the property owner. The 100-foot-wide wetland
buffer requirement would make development of this site difficult. The difficulty was
created by the new ordinance.
2. The variance would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the ordinance, since the
applicant would improve the quality of the wetland buffer substantially over its present
state.
3. The Ramsey - Washington Metro Watershed District has accepted the applicant's grading
and drainage plan and the wetland - buffer encroachment.
4. The city council approved a similar variance for National Tire and Battery for the lot to the
north in 1997.
3
Approval is subject to the applicant dedicating a wetland -buffer easement. This easement
shall describe the boundary of the buffer and prohibit any building, mowing, cutting, filling or
dumping within the buffer. The applicant shall record the deed for this easement before the
city will issue a building permit. The wetland -buffer easement shall cover all of the site east
of the parking lot curbing.
B. Adopt the resolution on pages 24 and 25. This resolution approves a conditional use permit
for a maintenance garage at the proposed Pep Boys Automotive Center south of 2570 White
Bear Avenue. Approval is based on the findings required by the code and subject to:
1. All construction shall follow the site plan approved by the city. The director of community
development may approve minor changes.
2. The proposed construction must be substantially started within one year of council
approval or the permit shall become null and void. The council may extend this deadline
for one year.
3. The city council shall review this permit in one year.
4. There shall not be any outdoor storage of materials or discarded tires, parts or refuse.
There shall not be any over -night outdoor storage of vehicles.
5. The applicant shall submit a landscape plan to staff for approval of the plantings in the
wetland buffer area.
C.. Approve the plans, date- stamped March 5, 1999, for proposed Pep Boys Automotive Center
south of 2570 White Bear Avenue, based on the findings required by the code. Approval is
subject to the following conditions:
1. Repeat this review in two years if the city has not issued a building permit for this
project.
2. Before getting a building permit, the applicant shall:
a. Dedicate a wetland- buffer easement. This easement shall describe the boundary of
the buffer and prohibit any building, mowing, cutting, filling or dumping within the
buffer, except for required landscaping and seeding. The applicant shall record the
deed for this easement before the city will issue a building permit. The wetland- buffer
easement shall cover all of the Pep Boys property east of the parking lot curbing.
b. Revise the site plan by widening the southerly landscaped strip by five feet. This
five -foot widening is derived from narrowing the northerly green area by five feet.
c. Submit grading, drainage, utility and erosion control plans to the city engineer for
approval.
d. Revise the rear building elevations to provide rock -face concrete block, instead of flat
concrete block, painted to match the color and detailing on the front and sides of the
building.
4
The red rain gutters and down spouts on the east side of the building shall be
substituted with a neutral color.
e. Combine the three lots and two vacated street rights -of -way that comprise this site
into one legally- described parcel.
f. Dedicate and record cross easements for access between Pep Boys and National
Tire and Battery if this easement has not yet been established.
3. The applicant shall complete the following before occupying the building:
a. Install a reflectorized stop sign at the southerly exit and a handicap - parking sign for
each handicap parking space.
b. Post a "no left turn" sign at the southerly curb cut.
c. Provide continuous concrete curb and gutter all around the parking lot and driveways.
d. Paint the rooftop mechanical equipment to match the building color if the units are
visible. (code requirement)
e. Construct the trash dumpster enclosure using the same materials and color as the
building. This enclosure shall have a 100 percent opaque gate.
f. Install an in- ground lawn irrigation system for all landscaped areas except for the
planted areas by the wetland behind the building. (code requirement)
g. Install signs at the edge of the wetland - protection buffer which prohibit any building,
mowing, cutting, filling or dumping within the buffer.
h. Provide site- security lighting as required by the code. The light source, including the
lens covering the bulb, shall be concealed so not to cause any nuisance to drivers or
neighbors.
4. If any required work is not done, the city may allow temporary occupancy if:
a. The city determines that the work is not essential to the public health, safety or
welfare. -
b. The city receives a cash escrow or an irrevocable letter of credit for the required work.
The amount shall be 200 percent of the cost of the unfinished work. Any unfinished
landscaping shall be completed by June 1 if the building is occupied in the fall or
winter or within six weeks if the building is occupied in the spring or summer.
5. This approval does not include the signs. Signage will be reviewed by staff through the
sign permit process.
6. All work shall follow the approved plans. The director of community development may
approve minor changes.

CITIZENS' COMMENTS
I surveyed the 21 property owners within 350 feet of this site. There were five replies.
Replies
1. Pep Boys is a very good automotive center and would be an asset to the community.
property owner, 2390 White Bear Avenue)
2. The nature of this business would not cause any problems with us. We would welcome them
in ' the `community. (Redeeming Love Church, 2425 White, Bear Avenue)
3. We have never objected to any projected construction before, but we would have a
suggestion this time. It seems something other than an auto service would be best suited
next to professional buildings. We would not be happy to see such a development next door.
How about an office building, office depot, restaurants, etc. (Walt Parsons, Maplewood
Dental Specialists, 2480 White Bear Avenue)
4. 1 would say that they should receive no other advantages than we have if we have no left turn
onto White Bear Avenue. Also I feel that with another competitor for my tenants it could
cause our value to be diminished. I feel as an auto mall we are doing all the car services and
having more competition could be a negative to our center. (Brian Pellowski, White Bear
Avenue Auto Center LTD Partnership, 2525 White Bear Avenue)
5. We have no objection. (CB Richard Ellis, management company for MapleRidge Shopping
Center, 2515 White Bear Avenue)

PLANNING
Land Use Plan designation: BC (business commercial)
Zoning: BC
Ordinance Requirements
Section 36- 151(b)(9)(c) requires a CUP for maintenance garages.
Section 36- 196(h)(3) of the wetland protection ordinance requires a 100- foot -wide wetland buffer for
the proposed site.
Section 25 -70 of the city code requires that the CDRB make the following findings to approve plans:
1. That the design and location of the proposed development and its relationship to neighboring,
existing or proposed developments, and traffic is such that it will not impair the desirability of
investment or occupation in the neighborhood; that it will not unreasonably interfere with the use
and enjoyment of neighboring, existing or proposed developments; and that it will not create traffic
hazards or congestion.
2. That the design and location of the proposed development is in keeping with the character of the
surrounding neighborhood and is not detrimental to the harmonious, orderly and attractive
development contemplated by this article and the city's comprehensive municipal plan.
3. That the design and location of the proposed development would provide a desirable environment
for its occupants, as well as for its neighbors, and that it is aesthetically of good composition,
materials, textures and colors.
Findings for Variance Approval
State law requires that the city council make the following findings to approve a variance from the
zoning code:
1. Strict enforcement would cause undue hardship because of circumstances unique to the property
under consideration.
2. The variance would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the ordinance.
Undue hardship," as used in granting of a variance, means the property in question cannot be put to a
reasonable use if used under conditions allowed by the official controls. The plight of the landowner is
due to circumstances unique to his property, not created by the landowner, and the variance, if
granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality. Economic considerations alone shall not
constitute an undue hardship if reasonable use for the property exists under the terms of the ordinance.
Criteria for Conditional Use Permit Approval
Section 36- 442(a) states that the city council may approve a CUP, based on nine standards. (See
findings 1 -9 in the resolution on pages 24 and 25.)

Re: Pep Boys, White Bear Avenue, Maplewood, Minnesota - Application for a Conditional Use
Permit, Wetland Buffer Variance, and Community Design Review Board Approval
Our File No. 23,416 -04
Dear Tom:
Pep Boys has contracted to purchase three parcels of land ( "Site ") at 2500 White Bear Avenue in the City
of Maplewood, Minnesota ( "City ") for construction of a new Pep Boys automotive center ( "Project ").
The Site includes 4.3464 acres. The majority of the Site is vacant and is used by Mogren Landscaping
Company to store concrete blocks and other material and equipment. The south parcel (Parcel C) is
occupied by a single story frame residence and shed. The Site has two existing curb cuts to and from
White Bear Avenue, one at the northwest corner of the property and another at the southwest corner of the
property.
The eastern portion of the Site includes one jurisdictional wetland that was delineated in the field on
November 19, 1998 by Peterson Environmental Consulting, Inc. ( "PEC "). The PEC Wetland Delineation
Report, dated December 15, 1998, is submitted to the City as part of Pep Boys' zoning application.
Ramsey- Washington Metro Watershed District has submitted separate correspondence to the City
approving the wetland delineation.

The PEC Wetland Delineation Report classifies the wetland as a predominantly seasonally flooded
palustrine emergent (PEMC; Circular 39 Type 3 inland shallow fresh marsh) and saturated palustrine
scrub shrub (PSSB; Circular 39 Type 6 shrub swamp) basin. The wetland plant community is dominated
by gray dogwood, reed canary grass and narrow -leaf cattail. The surrounding uplands are dominated by
Kentucky bluegrass and Canada goldenrod.
As described in the PEC Wetland Delineation Report, grading activity on the east side of the Site has
resulted in the creation of a large linear spoil pile. This spoil pile lies approximately 15 feet west of the
wetland on the north side of the Site. The distance between the wetland and the spoil pile increases as you
move south through the Site.
Surroundine Land Uses
The Site is located in a substantially developed commercial area. To the north is the recently constructed
National Tire and Battery ( "NTB "), Mogren Brothers Landscaping and a multi - tenant office building. To
the south is a medical office facility. To the west is White Bear Avenue and Mapleridge Center. To the
east is undeveloped wetlands and townhomes.
Proi ect Descrintion
The proposed Pep Boys facility will consist of the retail sale of automotive parts, automobile accessories,
and assorted household items related to automobiles. The facility will also include minor automotive
repair services as an accessory use to retail sales. The motor vehicle services proposed to be performed at
the facility will include: tire, battery and vehicle accessories installation; tune -ups, shocks and struts
service; lubricant and oil work; vehicle inspection; repair and replacement of engine support systems, but
not core engine removals; wheel balancing, alignment and suspension; brake work; exhaust system
service; and air conditioning service. There will be no body work, painting or collision repair work, or
major repair, rebuilding or reconditioning of engine blocks or transmission removal. Motor fuel will not
be sold on the premises.
All service work will take place inside the building in the twelve -bay service area. There will be no
overnight outside storage of vehicles. Project hours of operation have not been finally determined, but it
is anticipated that the facility will be open during these approximate time periods: Monday through
Friday - 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.; Saturday 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.; and Sunday - 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
Based on past experience with comparable facilities, Pep Boys will employ approximately 30 to 40 full -
time and part-time employees at the facility.
The exterior of the facility will consist of painted split -face concrete masonry block ( "CMU ") which is
similar in material, color and texture to other buildings located in the immediate surrounding area.
Painted accent stripes on the face of the building will break up the CMU wall at the front facade and
provide architectural interest. The canopy over the front entrance doors will provide down- lighting from
within which will illuminate the main storefront entrance at night. The CMU parapet extending above the
roof line on the north, west and south elevations will screen the mechanical rooftop equipment from view.

Stormwater runoff from all Project impervious surfaces will be routed through a stormwater pond located
between the parking lot curb and edge of wetland at the northeast corner of the Site. Ramsey- Washington
Metro Watershed District staff requested that the pond be sized to fit in this location rather than placing
the pond in the open area located to the south and east of the on -site wetland. This better preserves the
undisturbed natural state of that area.
Treated stormwater .exits the pond through an 18 -inch RCP outlet and an overland swale and discharges
into the wetland. Consistent with watershed district criteria, the pond will treat 100% of the runoff for a
one -year storm event. The pond outlet is designed for the ten -year storm event and the overland swale is
designed to accommodate the 100 -year storm event.
The proposed buffer distance between the wetland and the edge of the curb varies from a minimum of
44.5 feet to a maximum of 86 feet. This buffer area will be vegetated with native grasses, trees, and
shrubs. The requested wetland buffer variance will be discussed in greater detail in a subsequent section
of this letter - memorandum.
As described in the introductory paragraphs of this letter - memorandum, the Site includes an empty lot
currently being used for storage of landscaped material and a single- family home. The vacant lot has been
cleared and contains little or no vegetation. The home site contains just under one -half acre of woodland.
Most of the significant trees on the Site are cottonwood and pine. There are only twelve large trees on the
Site that meet City criteria (trees over eight -inch diameter except cottonwood, boxelder and poplar). This
woodland is under the one -half acre City threshold for tree replacement. However, the submitted
landscape plan contains substantially more than the five trees that would have been required for
replacement of a one -half acre woodlot.
Native species, such as pussy willow, river birch, red maple, redtwig dogwood and northern red cedar will
be planted at the rear of the Site adjacent to the wetland. These plantings will provide screening and
supply food and shelter for wetland wildlife. Bark mulch will be used around trees and shrubs in the pond
and wetland buffer area.
In addition, red - maple, red oak and honey locust will be planted throughout the Site. Rock mulch over
landscaped fabric will be used in all landscape areas around the building and parking lot.
Disturbed areas between the proposed parking area and wetland will be seeded with native grasses and
forbs. Green space elsewhere on the Site will be sodded and irrigated.
Existing Site Zoning and Guiding and Necessary Zoning Approvals for the Prod_ t
The Site is currently guided and zoned Business Commercial (BC). The retail automotive sales function
of the Project is a permitted use in the BC Business Commercial District (Maplewood Zoning Ordinance,
36.151(a)(3)). A "motor vehicle accessory installation center" is also a permitted use in the BC District
Zoning Ordinance, § 3 6.151(a)(10)).
15

Page 4
A "maintenance garage" is a conditional use in the BC District (Zoning Ordinance, § 36.151(b)(9)). The
Zoning Ordinance defines "maintenance garage" as "a building for the maintenance or repair of motor
vehicles. This definition does not include a motor vehicle accessory installation center for motor vehicle
wash." The automotive service function of the Project is classified as a "maintenance garage" in the
Zoning Ordinance. Therefore, approval of a conditional use permit is necessary for construction of the
Project. Pep Boys has applied to the City for approval of the necessary conditional use permit.
Ramsey- Washington Metro Watershed District and the City classify the on -site jurisdictional basin as a
Class 1 wetland. Class 1 wetlands are those with conditions and functions most susceptible to human
impacts, are most unique, have the highest community resource significance and similar characteristics.
Maplewood City Code, § 9 -196.) For Class 1 wetlands, the Maplewood City Code requires a 100 -foot
minimum buffer width, a 100 -foot average buffer width and a 10 -foot building foundation setback from
the outer edge of the buffer. Pep Boys proposes a wetland buffer that ranges from a minimum of 44.5 feet
to a maximum of 86 feet as measured from the wetland edge to the closest point of ground disturbance.
Therefore, approval of a 55.5 -foot wetland buffer variance is necessary for construction of the Project.
Pep Boys has applied to the City for approval of the necessary wetland buffer variance.
The Project also requires Community Design Review Board review and City Council approval of
architectural, site and landscape plans. Pep Boys has applied to the City for necessary design review
approvals of Project plans.
The balance of this letter - memorandum addresses ordinance criteria for approval of the requested
conditional use permit and wetland buffer variance.
Conditional Use Permit Ordinance Criteria
The proposed Proj ect complies with Zoning Ordinance standards for issuance of a conditional use permit
as follows:
The use would be located, designed, maintained, constructed and operated to be in conformity
with the City's Comprehensive Plan and Code of Ordinances.
The Project is guided and zoned for Business Commercial use. The proposed retail sales and automotive
service uses are consistent with the Comprehensive Plan land use designation and Zoning Ordinance
classification. On April 14, 1997, the Maplewood City Council found the northerly adjacent NTB facility,
a similar type of land use, to be consistent with the Maplewood Comprehensive Plan and Code of
Ordinances.
The use would not change the existing or planned character of the surrounding area.
The Project is compatible with the existing surrounding land uses. Most of the neighboring properties are
developed or planned for commercial or office use. Existing or planned residential properties are located
a substantial distance from the portion of the Site proposed to be developed for the Project.
16
LARKIN, HOFFMAN, DALY & LINDGREN, LTD.
Mr. Tom Ekstrand

Page 5
The use would not depreciate property values.
The Project is not expected to affect property values in the surrounding area.
The use would not involve any activity, process, materials, equipment or methods of operation
that would be dangerous, hazardous, detrimental, disturbing, or cause nuisance to any person
or property, because of excessive noise, glare, smoke, dust, odor, fumes, water or air pollution,
drainage water runoff, vibration, general unsightliness, electrical interference or other
nuisances.
The major portion of the proposed facility will be dedicated to the retail sale of automotive parts,
automotive accessories and assorted household items related to automotive care. Only minor automotive
repair services will be performed in the facility as described in previous sections of this letter -
memorandum. All repair work will occur within an enclosed building. There will be no body work,
painting or collision repair work performed on the premises. No overnight outside vehicle storage will be
allowed.
The Project will include twelve vehicle service bays wholly contained within the structure. Access to
these bays will be through one overhead entrance door located on the west side of the building. This
service entrance door will be painted to match the masonry color.
There will be no outside open storage of used tires, used automobile fluids or used parts. Used parts and
fluids are stored in the principal structure. All refuse and used tires will be wholly contained within a new
refuse /tire enclosure on the south - central portion of the Site that will be built of material compatible with
the building. A modular block retaining wall to be designed by a qualified professional engineer will also
be located along the south property line.
Pep Boys has an active corporate environmental compliance group that implements programs that meet or
exceed local, state and federal codes. The company has an extensive recycling program, including waste
oils, tires, batteries, corrugated cardboard, antifreeze, refrigerants, and aluminum, glass and paper where
local pickups are available.
Service bays are cleaned nightly with a scrubbing machine. All bays slope inward so as to contain any
minor spills or leaks. Only domestic waste flows into the sanitary sewer system.
The use would generate only minimal vehicular traffic on local streets and would not create
traffic congestion or unsafe access on existing or proposed streets.
The proposed Proj ect generates minimal vehicular traffic. Adjacent roadway systems have adequate
capacity to accommodate projected Project traffic. Two curb cuts to White Bear Avenue are proposed.
The first is a full access shared driveway at the northwest corner of the Site. The second is a right in/out
only at the southwest corner of the Site. This secondary access is in approximately the same location as
the existing curb cut to Parcel C.

The use would be served by adequate public facilities and services, including streets, police and
fire protection, drainage structures, water and sewer systems, schools and parks.
The Site is served by adequate public facilities and services. Water and sewer systems and streets have
adequate capacity to accommodate the Project.
The use would not create excessive additional costs for public facilities or services.
The Site is zoned and guided for Business Commercial use. The Project is consistent with the existing
zoning and guiding. Public facilities and services have been designed to accommodate the proposed
Business Commercial land use. No major public improvements are required. Therefore, the Project does
not create excessive additional public facilities or services costs.
The use would maximize the preservation of and incorporate the site's natural and scenic
features into the development design.
A significant portion of the Site has been previously graded and is currently used for storage of landscape
material and equipment. There are relatively few large trees on the Site as defined by City ordinances and
the existing woodland does not meet City tree replacement criteria. However, the submitted landscape
plan shows substantial new plantings, including native species at the rear of the property adjacent to the
wetland. These plantings will provide screening for the residences and supply food and shelter for
wetland wildlife.
The Site includes a Class 1 wetland. The wetland will not be impacted by the Project. Previous grading
on the property has resulted in the creation of a large spoil pile within the 100 -foot wetland buffer required
by the City Code. As described throughout this letter - memorandum, much of the existing 100 -foot
setback from the wetland edge is not an adequate buffer. The proposed Proj ect will improve protection of
the wetland by creation of a water quality treatment pond to pretreat runoff from a one -year storm event
prior to discharge to the wetland. Currently, there is no treatment of existing stormwater runoff from the
disturbed areas on the Site.
The use would cause minimal adverse environmental effects.
The Project will not adversely .impact the environment. As described above, the Class 1 wetland will be
preserved and protected by a high quality buffer ranging from 86 feet to 44.5 feet. A new water quality
treatment pond will pretreat Project runoff prior to discharge to the wetland. Native plants, trees and
shrubs will be installed in the areas of the Project adjacent to the wetland.
All service and repair activities will occur within an enclosed building. The Proj ect will comply with all
applicable code requirements.
Wetland Buffer Variance Ordinance Criteria
The proposed Proj ect complies with Zoning Ordinance standards for issuance of a wetland buffer variance
as follows:
f'?

Mr. Tom Ekstrand

1) Strict enforcement of the City ordinances would cause undue hardship because of
circumstances unique to your property. Undue hardship means that: (a) you cannot put your
property to a reasonable use under City ordinances; (b) your problem is due to circumstances
unique to your property that you did not cause; (c) the variance would not alter the essential
character of the area; and (2) the variance would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the
ordinance.
The proposed Project requires a variance from the City wetland ordinance. The wetland ordinance
requires a J 00 -foot buffer from the edge of the Class 1 wetland on the Site as measured from the wetland
edge to the closest point of ground disturbance. Pep Boys proposes a buffer distance between the wetland
and edge of the curb varying from a minimum of 44.5 feet to a maximum of 86 feet. This buffer area will
be vegetated with native grasses, trees and shrubs.
The variance is necessary for construction of the proposed facility on the Site. Due to the location and
configuration of the wetland, it is also likely that a similar wetland buffer variance would be necessary to
construct other business commercial uses allowed under existing zoning and guiding. To construct this
proposed facility, Pep Boys must be able to access both the front and the back of the building with
customer and delivery vehicles and must have the number of service bays and parking stalls shown on the
submitted plans. The proposed site plan provides the least buffer encroachment of the feasible and
practicable alternative layouts examined by Pep Boys.
In evaluating Zoning Ordinance criteria, it is important to note that much of the existing buffer has been
disturbed and consists of a large linear spoil pile. The watershed district has confirmed that the existing
poor quality 100 - foot -wide buffer does not provide the water quality treatment intended to be achieved by
strict adherence to the City wetland ordinance.
Pep Boys proposes to create a stormwater pond between the parking lot curb and edge of the wetland at
the northeast corner of the Site. The pond will treat 100% of Project runoff from a one -year storm event
consistent with watershed district criteria. This will improve the ability of the proposed buffer area to
protect wetland water quality. Essentially, the proposed site plan provides a high quality buffer as
opposed to the existing non - effective poor quality buffer. This is consistent with the spirit and intent of
the wetland ordinance.
In addition, issuance of the variance is consistent with previous action taken by the Maplewood City
Council under similar circumstances. On April 14, 1997, the Maplewood City Council approved a 60-
foot wetland buffer variance for NTB. This variance involved the same wetland complex, a variance of
comparable magnitude, and a similar basis for approval.
On February 26, 1996, the City Council approved a 75 -foot wetland setback variance for Lexus on
Highway 61. The Code required a 100 -foot wetland buffer. Lexus was required to provide an improved
quality 25- foot -wide buffer in lieu of the poor quality existing 100 - foot -wide buffer.

On December 9, 1996, the City Council approved a 50 -foot wetland setback variance for Maplewood
Imports on Highway 61. The Code required an average of a 100 -foot setback from the wetland edge with
a minimum of 50 feet. The City Council allowed Maplewood Imports to build up to the wetland edge.
Finally, on December 9, 1996, the City Council approved a 60 -foot wetland setback variance for Frank
Wienicki of General Sprinkler. The Code required a 100 -foot wetland setback. Mr. Wienicki proposed to
build on the south side of County Road D east of Highway 61.

RE: Permit #99 -09, Pep Boys Automotive Center
Dear Ms. Fisher:
At your request, I am sending this letter to state the watershed District's position on the Pep
Boys wetland setback variance request to the City of Maplewood.
The Watershed District reviews and offers technical advice to the City of Maplewood for its
wetland ordinance, including the wetland setback ordinance. In reviewing the Pep Boys plan,the District came to the conclusion that a variance should be supported for the following reasons:
1. The existing buffer to the wetland was highly degraded due to storage of landscape material,
paved surfaces, exposed soil, etc. The Pep Boys proposal would not destroy any valuable
habitat or reduce any other functions and values of the wetland.
2. The construction of the stormwater basin within the buffer, as we discussed, is not considered
by the Watershed District to be an impact to the buffer. The purpose of the stormwater basin
is to treat runoff from the adjacent parking area prior to its discharge to the wetland. This is
also one of the functions of the wetland buffer, so the Watershed District does not consider
stormwater basins as a wetland buffer impact.
I should point out that a very critical component of the District's acceptance of this variance
setback was the applicant's agreement to leave undeveloped the upland peninsula into the
wetland. This is located at the very southeast corner of the site, which is an area of high -value
upland habitat adjacent to the wetland. In the District's opinion, we did not want to see this area
impacted.
The Watershed District did approve the Pep Boys permit application with only two special
provisions relating to stormwater management. Please contact me at 651- 704 -2089 if you have
any questions.
Sincerely,
Patrick Conrad

VARIANCE RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, Pep Boys Automotive Center applied for a variance from the zoning ordinance.
is:
WHEREAS, this variance applies to property south of 2570 White Bear Avenue. The legal description
Parcel A: That part of the South 4 acres of the Southwest Quarter of the Northeast Quarter of the
Northwest Quarter of Section 11, Township 29, Range 22, which lies Easterly of the centerline of
White Bear Avenue and Southerly of the North 216.00 feet, according to the U.S. Government Survey
thereof, Ramsey County, Minnesota.
Parcel B: That part of the Northwest Quarter of the Southeast Quarter of the Northwest Quarter of

Quarter of the Northwest Quarter of Section 11, Township 29, Range 22, lying Easterly of the
centerline of White Bear Avenue except that part of the above described premises formerly known as
and described as Lot 24, Block 1, Florence Park, now vacated, according to the U.S. Government
Survey thereof, Ramsey County, Minnesota.
WHEREAS, Section 36- 196(h)(3) of the wetland protection ordinance requires a
100- foot -wide wetland buffer.
WHEREAS, the applicant is proposing a wetland buffer ranging from 44.5 to 86 feet.
WHEREAS, this requires a variance of 55.5 feet.
WHEREAS, the history of this variance is as follows:
1. On April 19, 1999, the planning commission recommended that the city council approve this
variance.
2. The city council held a public hearing on , 1999. City staff published a notice in the
Maplewood Review and sent notices to the surrounding property owners as required by law. The
council gave everyone at the hearing an opportunity to speak and present written statements. The
council also considered reports and recommendations from the city staff and planning
commission.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the city council approve the above - described variance as
recommended by the city staff that would allow no more than a 55.5 -foot encroachment into the normally -
required 100 -foot wetland - protection buffer for the following reasons:
1. Strict enforcement of the code would cause .undue hardship .because of circumstances unique to
the property and not created by the property owner. The 100 - foot -wide wetland buffer requirement
would make development of this site difficult. The difficulty was created by the new ordinance.
22
2. The variance would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the ordinance, since the applicant
would improve the quality of the wetland buffer substantially over its present state.
3. The Ramsey - Washington . Metro watershed District has accepted the applicant's grading and
drainage plan and the wetland- buffer encroachment.
4. The city council approved a similar variance for National Tire and Battery for the lot to the north in
1997.
Approval is subject to the applicant dedicating a wetland -buffer easement. This easement shall
describe the boundary of the buffer and prohibit any building, mowing, cutting, filling or dumping within
the - buffer. The applicant shall record the deed for this easement before the city will issue a building
permit. The wetland- buffer easement shall cover all of the site east of the, parking lot curbing.
The Maplewood City Council adopted this resolution on 11999.

MINUTES OF THE MAPLEWOOD PLANNING COMMISSION
1830 COUNTY ROAD B EAST, MAPLEWOOD, MINNESOTA
APRIL 19, 1999
V. NEW BUSINESS
A. Pep Boys Store (White Bear Avenue): Wetland Setback Variance and Conditional Use Permit
Ken Roberts, associate planner, presented the staff report. Commissioner Ledvina thought it was
more accurate to say that Pep Boys was requesting a 60.5 foot wetland buffer variance because
grass cutting, snow storage, etc. would be occurring on the five feet east of the rear line of the
parking lot curbing. This activity is prohibited in a buffer area.. Mr. Ledvina wanted to" make sure
that what we call the buffer is really going to be the buffer." He also noted conflict in the report
submitted by .the applicant in regard to' the capacity of the stormwater pond. In one instance the
report mentioned a ten -year design and then it referred to treating runoff from a one -year storm.
Ken Haider, city engineer, wasn't sure if this, was intended to be a technical report. He said the
facts, as he understood them, were that this was a water - quality basin with a wet bottom that stores
a one -year storm entirely within the pond without Outlet. Mr. Haider said this is the criteria that both
the City of Maplewood and the Ramsey - Washington Watershed Board use for a water - quality
measure. He said the ten -year storm is how high the water can get without overflowing an
emergency overflow Mr. Haider said the one -year storm event is very critical because if all storms
less than a one -year storm are treated, then the vast majority of runoff from the site (approximately
80 to 90 percent of the volume of water that annually discharge from that site) is being treated.
Commissioner Thompson pointed out that handicap parking was "conspicuously absent from the
latest memorandum." Mr. Roberts replied that handicap parking is correctly shown directly in front
of the store on the plans so there would be no need to mention them. Chairperson Fischer gave an
example of a different instance and emphasized that just because something is approved on a plan
doesn't mean that it will stay where the plan shows. Commissioner Thompson noted that the
neighboring tire and battery store has a parking lot that is underutilized. He suggested an option for
fewer parking spaces at this site with a plan for additional spaces if need. Mr. Roberts agreed and
thought it could be a condition for approval. Commissioner Frost said Pep Boys are providing more
spaces than required by Maplewood.
Commissioner Ledvina wondered how the area in the southeast quadrant of the site that is outside
the 100 -foot buffer compared with the buffer area that is being lost as part of this variance. Mr.
Roberts answered that these areas were very similar in total square feet.
Mr. Haider said that although the actual acreage might be similar, the quality of the land from a
wetland perspective in the middle was much higher than the disturbed buffer on the west side.
Linda Fisher of Larkin, Hoffman, Daly & Lindgren, Ltd. was present representing the applicant.
Nick Aspras, a principal of Pep Boys, and Jennifer Posma, a civil engineer with Hansen Thorp
Pellinen Olson, were also at the meeting. Ms. Fisher gave a brief overview of Pep Boys, a
nationwide company that has been in business over 75 years. She said they expect to have thirty to
forty employees at the store. According to Ms. Fisher, Pep Boys will do only minor automotive
repair will be done and will not have overnight, outdoor storage of vehicles.
Ms. Fisher showed color elevations of the site and described the proposed building. She said that
changes suggested by staff have been incorporated in the design of the building. Ms. Fisher also
showed a colored version of the site and landscape plan that was included in the report. She said
the applicant felt the staff report was accurate in measuring the variance because native planting
that does not need to be mowed will be used. Ms. Fisher said there would not be snow storage in

this area and the area would remain natural. She said they were able to increase the south buffer
by about five feet and would plant a number of additional trees.
Nick Aspras explained that some of the spaces in the southeast corner were placed there because
they would be convenient to the front door as opposed to the rear spaces. He explained that the
bump out with a canopy in the northeast corner of the building is a scissor lift which eliminates the
need for a dock.
Jennifer Posma said the trash enclosure was moved so that runoff from the site would not flow to
the enclosure. This move also provided easier truck access to the dock. Ms. Posma said the
enclosure is on a concrete slab that would drain to the west and be routed into a catch basin.
Commissioner Frost moved the Planning Commission recommended:
A Adoption of the resolution which approves up to a 55.5 -foot wetland buffer variance for the
proposed Pep Boys Automotive Center south of 2570 White Bear Avenue. Approval is based on
the following findings:
1. Strict enforcement of the code would cause undue hardship because of circumstances
unique to the property and not created by the property owner. The 100- foot -wide wetland
buffer requirement would make, development of this site difficult. The difficulty was created
by the new ordinance.
2. The variance would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the ordinance, since the
applicant would improve the quality of the wetland buffer substantially over its present state.
3. The Ramsey - Washington Metro Watershed District has accepted the applicant's grading and
drainage plan and the wetland- buffer encroachment.
4. The city council approved a similar variance for National Tire and Battery for the lot to the
north in 1997.
Approval is subject to the applicant dedicating a wetland- buffer easement. This easement shall
describe the boundary of the buffer and prohibit any building, mowing, cutting, filling or dumping
within the buffer. The applicant shall record. the deed for this easement before the city will issue
a building permit. The wetland - buffer easement shall cover all of the site east of the parking lot
curbing.
B. Adopt the resolution on pages 24 and 25.. This resolution approves a conditional use permit for a
maintenance garage at the proposed Pep Boys Automotive Center south of 2570 White Bear
Avenue. Approval is based on the findings required by the code and subject to:
1. All construction shall follow the site plan approved by the city. The director of community
development may approve minor changes.
2. The proposed construction must be substantially started within one year of council approval
or the permit shall become null and void. The council may extend this deadline for one year.
3. The city council shall review this permit in one year.
4. There shall not be any outdoor storage of materials or discarded tires, parts or refuse. There
shall not be any over -night outdoor storage of vehicles.
Planning Commission
Minutes of 04 -19 -97
Commissioner Pearson seconded.
Commissioner Ledvina asked if the wetland buffer area requested in the variance should be
increased to 60.5 feet to make it consistent with the last paragraph of Item A. in the
recommendation. Commissioner Frost said'based on what the applicant stated about restoring this
additional five feet to native vegetation and" ot using it for snow storage, he thought that met the
intent of the buffer requirement. Mr. Ledvina then questioned if it should say the "line east of the
rear line of the parking lot curbing." Mr. Frost replied that the applicant is not required to dedicate
an easement for all buffers. Chairperson Fischer felt that the one case referred to the actual buffer
and the other to the easement. Mr. Ledvina was agreeable to this.
Commissioner Ledvina said the proposal indicated that the restoration should include natural
plantings in this buffer area. He thought it would be appropriate for the applicant to develop a
specific plan for restoration and revegetation of the wetland buffer that would be subject to staff
approval.
Commissioner Ledvina made a friendly amendment to add the following to Recommendation B.:
5. The applicant shall develop a specific plan for restoration and revegetation of the wetland buffer
subject to staff approval.
Commissioner Frost accepted the amendment.
Commissioner Ledvina proposed to amend Recommendation B. 4. as follows:
4. Thereshall not be any outdoor storage of materials or discarded tires, parts or refuse. There
shall also be no overnight, outdoor storage of vehicles.
Commissioner Frost accepted this amendment.

MINUTES OF THE MAPLEWOOD COMMUNITY DESIGN REVIEW BOARD
1830 COUNTY ROAD B EAST, MAPLEWOOD, MINNESOTA
APRIL 27, 1999
VI. DESIGN REVIEW
A. Pep Boys Automotive Center —South of 2570 White Bear Avenue
Secretary Tom Ekstrand presented the staff report. He said a revised plan was brought to the
Maplewood Planning Commission meeting on April 19 that showed the site shifted northerly
five feet. Mr. Ekstrand had not received a copy of this revised site plan. However, this
alteration has been addressed by a condition in the report.
Jennifer Posma of Hansen Thorp Pellinen and Olson said the applicant was in agreement
with all of the staff recommendations and the additional conditions required by the planning
commission. She brought a revised plan that showed the entire paving and building shifted
north on the site by five feet to provide a larger green space area between the pavement and
the professional building to the south. They were able to do this by reducing the green space
on the northerly portion of the lot. Ms. Posma said additional tree screening was added on
the south between Pep Boys and the professional building. She also said the retaining wall
has been shortened slightly.
Ms. Posma noted another minor alteration was to move two stalls previously shown in the
overflow bump -Out area and the tire and trash enclosure to allow better drainage. This will
also provide better circulation for any trucks servicing the trash and tire enclosure. She said
this will be screened with white cedar. Mir. Ekstrand pointed out that the shift to the north was
done at staff's request because the neighboring property owner to the south asked for a little
more buffering between the two sites.
Boardmember Johnson asked if the trees selected by the applicant were within the city's
guidelines. Mr. Ekstrand said the species were fine but he did not know about the size.
Chairperson Ledvina inquired about the curb cut on the north portion of the property which is
not symmetrical with the existing cut at National Tire and Battery. Ms. Posma said this cut
was designed to allow adequate turning radius for trucks entering the site. The board and
staff discussed how vehicles would have southbound access to White Bear Avenue. It was
determined that the only way to make a right turn would be. through the NTB site.
Thomas Ryckman of Casco Corporation in St. Louis, the architects /engineers for the project,
was present. Mr. Ryckman showed a colored elevation that depicted what the building would
look like. He said they were blending the building materials from the two adjacent sites.
Materials used on the exterior will be a combination of brick, EIFS and split -face concrete
masonry (CMU). The building will basically be earthtone with various "Pep Boy" red accents.
Mr. Ryckman described the construction of the scissor -lift dock area and felt there was
sufficient clearance for semi - trucks. Mr. Ryckman said there would be standard roof vents,
four rooftop units and a small satellite dish on the roof. The signage will be illuminated.
Chairperson Ledvina had a question about the red banding on the east side of the building.
Mr. Ryckman said this is actually gutter and downspouts that are painted "fire- engine" red.
Mr. Ledvina asked if there would be an objection to eliminating this red on the backside of the
building. Mr. Ryckman did not object to changing the gutters and downspouts to an earthtone

to match the building. He also said that. Pep Boys uses a shoebox light fixture which shines
directly down to keep the lighting on the site.
Boardmember Johnson moved the Com"munity Design Review Board:
C. Approve the plans, date - stamped March 5, 1999, for proposed Pep Boys Automotive
Center south of 2570 White Bear Avenue, based on the findings required by the code.
Approval is subject to the following conditions:
1. Repeat this review in two years if the city has not issued a building permit for this
project.
2. Before getting a building permit, the applicant shall:
a. Dedicate a wetland - buffer easement. This easement shall describe the boundary
of the buffer and prohibit any building, mowing, cutting, filling or dumping within
the buffer, except for required landscaping and seeding. The applicant shall
record the deed for this easement before the city will issue a building permit. The
wetland- buffer easement shall cover all of the Pep Boys property east of the
parking lot curbing.
b. Revise the site plan by widening the southerly landscaped strip by five feet. This
five -foot widening is derived from narrowing the northerly green area by five feet.
c. Submit grading, drainage, utility and erosion control plans to the city engineer for
approval.
d. Revise the rear building elevations to provide rock -face concrete block, instead of
flat concrete block, painted to match the color and detailing on the front and sides
of the building.
e. Combine the three lots and two vacated street. rights -of -way that comprise this
site into one legally - described parcel.
f. Dedicate and record cross easements for access between Pep Boys and National
Tire and Battery if this easement has not yet been established.
3. The applicant shall complete the -following before occupying the building:
a. Install a reflectorized stop sign at the southerly exit and a handicap - parking sign
for each handicap parking space.
b. Post a "no left turn" sign at the southerly curb cut.
c. Provide continuous concrete; curb and gutter all around the parking lot and
driveways.
d. Paint the rooftop mechanical equipment to match the building color if the units are
visible. (code requirement)
Community Design Review Board -3-
Minutes of 04 -27 -99
e. Construct the trash dumpster enclosure using the same materials and color as
the building. This enclosure shall have a 100 percent opaque gate.
f. Install an in- ground lawn irrigation system for all landscaped areas except for the
planted areas by the wetland behind the building. (code requirement)
g. Install signs at the edge of the wetland - protection buffer which prohibit any
building, mowing, cutting, filling or dumping within the buffer.
h. Provide site - security lighting as required by the code. The light source, including
the lens covering the bulb, shall be concealed so not to cause any nuisance to
drivers or neighbors.
4. If any required work is not done, the city may allow temporary occupancy if:
a. The city determines that the work is not essential to the public health, safety or
welfare.
b. The city receives a cash escrow or an irrevocable letter of credit for the required
work. The amount shall be 200 percent of the cost of the unfinished work. Any
unfinished landscaping shall::,be completed by June 1 if the building is occupied in
the fall or winter or within six weeks if the building is occupied in the spring or
summer.
5. This approval does not include the signs. Signage will be reviewed by staff through
the sign permit process.
6. All work shall follow the approved plans. The director of community development may
approve minor changes.
Boardmember Robinson seconded.
Chairperson Ledvina added a friendly amendment that neutral colors be used for the east
elevation trim, in place of the red, as well as downspouts and canopy.
Boardmember Robinson seconded the amendment.

SUBJECT: Roof Replacement
INTRODUCTION
The 1999 Capital Improvement budget has $40,000 budgeted for the replacement of the park
maintenance building roof. The park maintenance building was purchased from Fulk
Manufacturing in 1993. The building was constructed in spring of 1984 and is 15 years old. It
has the original roof which is currently leaking in numerous locations.
BACKGROUND
The 1999 Capital Improvement budget has $40,000 budgeted for a complete roof
replacement. Formal bids were received and opened on Thursday, April 29.
One bid was received from SELA Roofing and Remodeling Inc. The roof replacement cost
including a 10 -year guarantee and workmanship and materials is $41,900. Staff hired an
independent firm in 1995 to do a roof analysis and a full roof replacement was estimated at
45

Mods, fi e
Re j ected._.,,
Date
In response to the neighborhood stop sign article published in the March 1999
Maplewood In Motion, the Public Works Department received petitions from four
neighborhood groups who requested stop signs at six intersections.
Three -way stop signs have been requested at the intersections of Kohlman Avenue and
English Street, Kohiman Avenue and Clarence Street, and at Radatz Avenue and
Furness Street. Four -way stop signs have been requested at the intersections of Ripley
Avenue and Clarence Street, Ripley Avenue and Birmingham Street, and Summer
Avenue and Birmingham Street. Location maps and four petitions with the required
minimum of twelve property owner signatures are attached.
In most cases, petitioners feel that their residential streets are being used to avoid the
adjacent through streets, which are controlled by stop signs. The uncontrolled
residential streets have become speedways and short cuts. Without sidewalks in these
typical Maplewood residential neighborhoods, walking or roller blading in the street has
become hazardous.
In accordance with the stop sign policy, the issue of neighborhood stop signs is
considered once a year during the month of May. Petitioners have been notified
via mail and the May issue of Maplewood in Motion, that their stop sign request
will be considered at the May 10, 1999 council meeting.

We, the undersigned, request the addition of stop
signs for North Clarence Street at East Ripley
Avenue, in the City of Maplewood. Thus, making a
four -way stop for this intersection.
We feel the need is there and has been for some
time; long before the English Street construction
project presently in progress. With this being one of
only a very few north -south streets that go from Frost
Avenue directly through to Maryland Avenue, in St.
Paul, the traffic has become very heavy and traveling
much too fast. With the local shops on Frost Avenue,
we also have a great deal of pedestrian and bicycle
traffic. We have witnessed far too many near-
accidents and feel this would be an answer for more
controlled traffic from Frost to Larpenteur Avenues.

PETITION
We, the undersigned, are signing this petition in support of the installation of the
following stop signs in our neighborhood: a three -way stop sign at the intersection
of English Street and Kohlman Avenue; and athree -way stop sign at the
intersection of Clarence Street and Kohlman Avenue.
Because there are no sidewalks in our neighborhood, there are many children in the
streets at any given time to go to their friends houses, to rollerblade, to chase after
a lost ball, etc. We support the installation of these stop signs as a way to make our
streets safer for these children. 'We feel that these stop signs will slow down the
drivers on our streets, and will help increase their awareness of the foot traffic on
the street.

SUBJECT: Residential Parking Issues and Code Change
DATE: April 6, 1999
INTRODUCTION
Action by Council
Endorsee
Modified.....
Red
Date
Councilmember Koppen asked staff to provide a review of. current ordinances and issues
associated with the parking of vehicles in residential areas. Residents have voiced concerns
about the lack of ordinances the city has to deal with vehicles parked on residential lots.
BACKGROUND
On October 12, 1998, the council reviewed several concerns and alternatives about off - street
parking in residential areas. The council directed staff to prepare code changes about off - street
parking in residential areas and then send the proposed changes to the planning commission for
their input.
On February 1, 1999, the planning commission considered an ordinance amendment about
parking in residential areas. This change would make the parking of vehicles on dirt, grass or
landscaped areas a nuisance and would prohibit the parking of vehicles in front yards except on
a hard surface driveway. After much discussion, the commission tabled action on the proposed
ordinance amendment and asked staff to get more information and copies of residential parking
ordinances from other cities.
On February 17, 1999, the planning commission again reviewed this matter. The commission
again tabled action on this and asked staff to get more copies of ordinances from other cities.
On March 15, 1999, the planning commission again discussed and reviewed this issue. At this
meeting, the commission reached a consensus about the major issues and concerns that they
want an ordinance to try regulate. (See the list below in the discussion part of this report.)
DISCUSSION
The current ordinances address junk vehicles, abandoned vehicles and parking in residential
areas in the following manner:
Definitions
Junk vehicles
The ordinance defines junk vehicles in Section 19 -28 (Nuisances) as "a motor vehicle, any
trailer, marine craft, snowmobile, mobile home, pick -up camper top, and partially dismantled,
which is used for sale of parts or as a source of repair or replacement parts for other vehicles, or
which is kept for scrapping, dismantling, or salvage of any kind. A junk vehicle shall also be
considered an abandoned vehicle for the purpose of this article."
Inoperable Condition
Section 19 -28 of the code defines inoperable condition as to mean "that the vehicle has no
substantial potential use consistent with its usual function, and shall include a vehicle that:
1. Has a missing or defective part that is necessary for the normal operation of the vehicle;
2. Is stored on blocks, jacks or other supports; or
3. Does not have a current vehicle license."
Abandoned vehicles
Generally, the city code defines abandoned vehicles as those that are:
1. On public property in violation of either city ordinances or Minnesota Statutes;
2. On private property without the consent of the person in control of the property;
3. Disabled;
4. Not secure from entry;
5. Without license plates conspicuously displayed thereon; or
6. With license plates which have an expiration date more than 90 days prior to the date of
inspection.
The ordinance allows certain exemptions with respect to abandoned vehicles, two of which
sometimes cause concern for neighbors. Vehicles that meet the following criteria are not
considered to be abandoned:
1. A vehicle screened from view of adjacent residences by landscaping or fencing or kept in
an enclosed garage or storage building; and
2. A vehicle which is registered to the owner or occupant of the property and which is being
kept for no longer than 30 days in a disabled condition and is kept secure from entry, and
provided that only one disabled vehicle may be kept on the property at any given time.
Current Remedies
Junk Vehicles
The community development department receives many calls per year about junk or inoperable
vehicles. The current nuisance ordinance (Chapter 19 of the city code) gives city staff the
authority to order the removal or clean up of any nuisance causing activity. As an example, if the
city determines that there is a junk or inoperable vehicle on a property, city staff will send the
property owner a notice to remove the vehicle from the property. This notice usually gives the
owner 14 days to remove the vehicle.
Parking in yards
Parking in yards (off driveways) in residential areas is more difficult for staff to regulate. The
current code does not address the parking of vehicles on residential lots except for the junk or
abandoned vehicles as discussed above. The code also is silent on the number of vehicles that
property owners may park on their lots. That is, one may now park vehicles anywhere on their
property (including the yard) and the city cannot stop it. This issue seems to be one that
concerns the public the most. The primary complaint we receive and can do nothing about are
cars and recreational vehicles parked in front or side yards instead of on driveways or in garages.
2
Poi 1 LE SOLUTIONS
For junk or abandoned vehicles, the current city code is adequate and staff does not recommend
any changes.
The issue of parking vehicles in yards instead of on driveways is more difficult to regulate. There
is a fine line between. individual property rights and visual blight. Many communities have
struggled with this issue. There is obviously no right or wrong solution. If the city council wants
to change these ordinances, they must proceed carefully.
There are three possible approaches:
1. Limit the parking of vehicles, trailers, recreational vehicles, etc. to hard - surface
driveways, to inside buildings and/or to the side and rear yard areas. We may wish to
consider screening requirements if the owner stores the vehicle or trailer in the side or
rear yard.
2. Require every motor vehicle or trailer that is parked outside of the garage or building to
display license plates with current registration tabs.
3. Restrict the number of vehicles that may be parked on the side or rear yard of properties
to two (2) and require that the vehicles be kept at least five feet from rear and side yard
property lines. Staff could allow temporary permits for additional short term parking (30
days or less) or the city could require a conditional use permit for longer term storage
needs.
These approaches are relatively similar to the surrounding communities. City staff did a survey
of several surrounding communities in July 1998. (Please see the survey results on page five.)
I received copies of residential parking Ordinances from Lino Lakes, Oakdale, Saint Louis Park,
Woodbury and White Bear Lake. These cities have standards in their codes about parking
places, parking location and materials, setbacks, numbers of vehicles and the storage of
recreational vehicles in residential areas.
Planning Commission Interests
At their ///larch 15, 1999 meeting, the planning commission created a list of issues and priorities
that they want the city to cover or address in a new residential parking ordinance. The
commission said that such an ordinance should include:
1. A statement of purpose and a goal section.
2. Language requiring owners to have improved and designated parking areas in front
yards. This is to prevent parking on grass or on landscape areas that then become
unsightly and difficult to maintain.
3. Setting a limit or a maximum amount of driveway or hard - surface area for a front yard.
This could be up to 30 percent or whatever the city decides is a reasonable limit.
3
4. Setting limits for the parking and the storage of larger recreational vehicles (RV's) as are
done in the Saint Louis Park ordinance.
5. Having a setback from a right -of -way for vehicle parking, especially for RV's.
6. Language allowing the city to approve a conditional use permit giving special parking
approval in hardship situations or in unique circumstances where the ordinance does not
fit or work for the property owner.
7. Requirements for owners to screen from the neighbors, vehicles and RV's parked in side
and rear yards.
8. Setbacks from the side and rear property lines for parking areas and for vehicles.
PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION
On April 5, 1999, the planning commission reviewed their list of interests for a residential parking
Ordinance. The commission reaffirmed the issues and priorities in the above list and asked staff
to send the information to the council city for more direction in writing a new ordinance.
RECOMMENDATION
Review the attached ordinances and the list above and provide staff with more direction for what
to include in an ordinance regulating parking in residential areas.

Section 14:5 -4.1 RESIDENTIAL RESTRICTIONS AND PERFORMANCE
STANDARDS: (Add A. Purpose and B. Definitions; Renumber existing A as C)
A. Purpose The City Council finds that in areas set aside by the Zoning Ordinance for
residential development certain performance standards are desirable in order to preserve
neighborhood character, public health and safety. property values, and allow all residents a
reasonable use and enjoyment of property.
To this purpose the Cit' Council finds that the use and possession of commercial and recreational
vehicles are an important factor in the lives of a substantial number of residents of the City of St.
Louis Park. The Council finds that certain types and sizes of commercial and recreational
vehicles, the improper storage of commercial and recreational vehicles, and the parking of and
storage of excessive numbers of vehicles can affect the neighborhood character as well as public
health and safety, property values, and the reasonable use and enjoyment of neighboring
properties. Wide the ability of recreational vehicle owners to provide for the security of and
access to their vehicles is a reasonable expectation, they have a responsibility to respect the rights
of residents, owners, and users of neighboring properties and to avoid interference with the
purposes of the zoning district in which they are located. The City Council further finds that the
establislunent of these regulations further the goals in the City's Comprehensive Plan relative to
enhancement of residential neighborhoods and similar goals expressed in Vision St. Louis Park.
The City Council establishes these regulations as a means to balance the interests of the owners of
commercial and recreational vehicles, adjacent residents and the public.
B. Definitions. For the purpose of Sections 14:5- 4.1.C.8, 9 and 10, the listed terms are
defined as follows:

MINUTES OF THE MAPLEWOOD PLANNING COMMISSION
1830 COUNTY ROAD. B EAST, MAPLEWOOD, MINNESOTA
APRIL 5, 1999
IV. Unfinished Business
A. Residential Parking Ordinance
Ken Roberts summarized the discussion on this proposed ordinance from the previous
commission meeting. As part of this staff report, he outlined, as he had noted, the main
planning commission interests if the city were to pursue this ordinance. Commissioner Frost
said he took a walking survey of his neighborhood and noted that there will be many residences
affected by this ordinance. He wondered if it would be better to "try to do a little bit at a time."
He suggested addressing one of the major issues now and see how it goes for a year. Then, if
enforcement was not effective, it could be reconsidered in a year.
Mr. Roberts agreed that "baby steps" would be the way to start this ordinance. He said the
choice on how to do this will be up to the city council. Mr. Frost said the big issue he saw was
people not parking on improved surfaces. He felt this problem has become worse Over the
years. Mr. Frost's main goal would be to require parking vehicles on an improved surface, in a
garage, screened in the backyard or stored off the premises.
Commissioner Rossbach preferred sending this to the city council now. The council could then
let the commission know what is acceptable in the council's point of view. Commissioner
Pearson thought a good starting point was to require bituminous driveways with new
construction. Mr. Roberts said an improved driveway could be a good Class 5 driveway that is
well maintained. Commissioner Trippler concurred with Mr. Rossbach about needing to get
input from the city council at this time. Commissioner Ledvina suggested using a survey to ask
Maplewood residents for their opinions.
Commissioner Thompson commented that some of the screening that exists is almost more
Objectionable than that which is being concealed. He thought, with the screening requirement,
that an ordinance was being initiated that would be almost unenforceable. Chairperson Fischer
agreed that screening does pose some problems when defining how or from whom you are
screening the vehicle. Commissioner Mueller said that passing an ordinance may generate new
hard feelings but it does provide a law that will give people a recourse. He also was in favor of
taking the planning commission list of issues and priorities to the city council for their decision.
Commissioner Frost said that everyone he talked to about this ordinance thought it was a good
idea.
Commissioner Thompson advocated using a survey in the Maplewood in Motion to create
awareness and get response from Maplewood residents. Commissioner Trippler was interested
in the survey idea but cautioned that a survey does involve a great deal of work. He thought it
might be a better way to just have the council meeting open for public comment and make a
decision on this basis.
Commissioner Rossbach moved the Planning Commission forward the list of eight items
contained in the staff report of March 16, 1999 on the proposed residential parking ordinance to
the Maplewood City Council for their input and direction.
Commissioner Frost seconded. Ayes —all
The motion passed.
MINUTES OF THE MAPLEWOOD PLANNING COMMISSION
1830 COUNTY ROAD B EAST, MAPLEWOOD, MINNESOTA
MARCH 15, 1999
V. UNFINISHED BUSINESS
A. Residential Parking Ordinance
Ken Roberts presented the staff report. Additional sample ordinances, as previously requested
by the commission, were included in the report. Mr. Roberts said the Stillwater ordinance was
not available. Chairperson Fischer asked if the city council gave any direction as to what the
ordinance should cover. Melinda Coleman, director of community development, responded that
this came about because a couple citizens requested that the city council take a look at this
problem within the city. She said the council gave no specific direction but she personally sensed
they preferred something "more simplistic than complex on the scale of ordinances."
Ms. Coleman felt the major issue was the front yard. She said council had a concern about taking
on more than staff could enforce. Staff confirmed that Maplewood does not presently require a
new home to have a garage or paved driveway.
Commissioner Rossbach wondered if motor vehicle, trailer, etc. were included in the definition of
vehicle. According to Ms. Coleman, vehicle would have to be clearly defined in the ordinance.
Mr. Rossbach mentioned that, at the last meeting, the general suggestion was that each member
of the commission would note the items they thought were important in dealing with this issue.
He said it was previously discussed to take a "two -prong attack" - - write an ordinance that would
only allow parking in the driveway in the front yard or address the issue of parking in both the side
and backyard too.
Commissioner Rossbach felt that items listed in the three approaches given in the staff report
covered areas that he thought needed to be addressed. Some of his concerns were to clearly
define vehicle, clearly define the parking area but not dictate that it must be concrete or asphalt
use hard surface or gravel), and screen any storage of these items in rear or side yards with 100
percent screening. Mr. Rossbach also thought it was important that the license plate be current.
Mr. Rossbach was of the opinion that screening was more important than distance from a lot line.
Commissioner Pearson mentioned that requiring an improved surface for storage or parking of a
vehicle was discussed at the previous planning commission meeting.
Commissioner Frost asked about the regulations and definition of commercial vehicles. He noted
that there was a residence in his neighborhood that had three vans used for commercial purposes
parking in the driveway and the street, in addition to the cars used by the residents. Mr. Frost
also mentioned a neighbor who has six people in the house and each person has at least one
vehicle.
Commissioner Mueller commented that a blue tarp should probably not be allowed as screening.
He also mentioned a very large recreational vehicle that is parked further down his street
throughout the winter. Mr. Mueller said this is not a pleasant view and, therefore, he would like to
have some regulations on the kind or size of recreational vehicle that can be parked in the
residential area. Commissioner Rossbach thought that setting up an ordinance that addresses a
vehicle which is not in the driveway and is completely screened would limit the size of the vehicle.
If the recreational vehicle is parked in the driveway, this Ordinance would not affect that. He
mentioned a recreational vehicle and large snowmobile trailer in his neighborhood that are parked
on a paved surface and would not be affected as such.
Chairperson Fischer described an instance in her neighborhood where a camper sat near the
property line between a driveway and a lilac hedge and was hidden from street view by a large

pine tree. This screening was effective and presented no problem to the neighbors.
Commissioner Ledvina felt that enforcing setback requirements would eliminate storage of very
large recreational vehicles in front of garages, etc. Commissioner Trippler basically agreed with
Mr. Rossbach and also spoke about limiting the amount of driveway allowable in a front yard. He
proposed that the total area of a front yard of a single lot improved for parking and driveway
purposes should not exceed 30 percent of the front yard area. Additionally, he recommended that
the average width of the driveway should not be more than 25 feet wide.
Mr. Roberts said the driveway code was changed by the city council within the last couple years.
He thought this change increased the driveway width at the right -of -way line from 22 feet to 32
feet. Mr. Trippler was agreeable to the 32 feet. Chairperson Fischer pointed out that the city has
encouraged houses on major streets to have turnarounds. She felt the turnaround might create a
problem on some of the existing minimal setbacks on lots that are narrower within the city.
Commissioner Mueller would rather see a paved front yard than ruts in grass. Commissioner
Rossbach thought neither a .paved yard or ruts in the grass were good choices. He thought
green space (grass) was necessary to absorb runoff and not have it all go to the street.
Commissioner Rossbach suggested saying "something like your driveway can't be bigger than the
front of your garage." He was of the opinion that something could be set up in the ordinance that
would limit how big the paved area could get without allowing the whole front yard to be paved.
Mr. Rossbach felt the lots would lend themselves to what could be put on them. Chairperson
Fischer suggested that paved and improved were not necessarily the same thing and described
the difference. If the city is only going to allow a certain percentage of the front yard to be paved,
Ms. Fischer felt an improved surface that is not impervious might have to be excluded. She
thought this would also solve some of the runoff problem. Commissioner Pearson said this would
be difficult to enforce. Commissioner Rossbach said this "sounded like sound reasoning."
Commissioner Frost referred to the St. Louis Park ordinance and said it made sense that a
recreation vehicle over eight feet high, twenty -two feet long and 6,500 lbs. should not be parked in
a residential lot. He also did not feel that these should be parked in a driveway but should be
stored in a storage lot. Mr. Roberts said they are usually kept at the residence for security
reasons. Commissioner Thompson mentioned vehicles that have the wheels removed. These
would be inoperable and not allowed. He also did not like the idea of vehicles being stored in
back lots and felt it would be difficult to screen them effectively. Mr. Thompson was of the
opinion that regulating backyard storage would lead to violations that would almost be
unenforceable.
Commissioner Rossbach believed that it would be adequate if the vehicle in the backyard was
screened from the side and rear neighbors. He pointed out that the ordinance is not to deal with
individual cases but would be a way for the city to resolve the many complaints it receives about
storage of various vehicles. Commissioner Pearson did not think it should be so difficult to come
up with a reasonable ordinance since there were other communities that have had suitable
ordinances in effect for some time.
Mr. Roberts indicated that St. Louis Park had expressed some difficulty in enforcing its
ordinance. Melinda Coleman, director of community development, said this was a very unpopular
ordinance and many people are still outraged by it. She preferred that Maplewood take a "more
simpler" approach and start out by trying a conservative ordinance to begin with. Ms. Coleman
said that weight and size restrictions irritate the residents. She thought it was best to address the
front yard parking problem and, if allowing storage in the backyard, require screening.
Ms. Coleman advised that a public participation process should be considered before writing a
more complex ordinance.

Commissioner Pearson thought some of the excessive parking is the result of operating a
business in a residential zone. He mentioned that many times vehicles parked in the street
overnight are not being ticketed. Commissioner Mueller summarized the various aspects of the
proposed ordinance and commented that he liked the size restriction on recreational vehicles. His
opinion was that if you could afford the vehicle, you probably could afford a place to store it.
Commissioner Ledvina liked the fact that St. Louis Park identified a purpose for their ordinance.
He also was in agreement with one sample ordinance that required a parking setback of five feet
from the curb. He thought this could be extended to ten feet. Chairperson Fischer cautioned that
this might be a problem in some older sections of Maplewood that have smaller setbacks.
Melinda Coleman felt the ordinance should include some type of "escape clause" so that the city
council or planning commission could allow a conditional use permit for extenuating
circumstances.
Commissioner Rossbach suggested reading the list of concerns and having the commissioners
indicate their agreement by raising their hand. Commissioner Trippler noticed the restriction on
outdoor storage of fish houses on residential lots in one of the sample ordinances. He was in
favor of this because he had to look at a neighbor's fish house for four years. Staff indicated that
Maplewood has not received complaints on these houses. Commissioner Thompson has
observed a trailer full of trash and a diesel tractor frequently parked near Mr. Mueller's house. He
felt the neighbors were either afraid or reluctant to complain and so the problem continues.
Commissioner Rossbach saw this as a "relief valve" where the neighbors might not care and the
city primarily responds on a complaint basis.
Chairperson Fischer hoped that an ordinance would solve more problems than it creates.
Commissioner Thompson requested that, after all the thoughts were compiled, the commission
would have an opportunity to look at the ordinance from the point of view that each person
possesses. He felt there was substantial difference in the backyard storage viewpoints.
Chairperson Fischer recalled a previous instance where the HRA asked for specific direction from
the city council on a truth -in- housing ordinance. She suggested that the commission might also
want this same type of guidance from the council on this ordinance.
Commissioner Rossbach understood that the planning commission was to put together a list of
concerns they felt should be addressed in an ordinance. This would be taken to the city council
for their review and then staff would write an ordinance based on the direction of the council.
Mr. Roberts urged that, if the ordinance is written, time be allotted to advertise and invite the
public to a planning commission or city council meeting to discuss the provisions of it.
Commissioner Frost questioned the response to a White Bear Lake ordinance that prohibits the
parking of motor vehicles, recreational equipment and vehicles in the front yard. Ms. Coleman
hadn't heard if this was an issue in White Bear but said it is not that "atypical" to not allow any
parking in front of the house other than in the driveway. Mr. Frost said it was very simple to keep
it out of the front yard and then screen it on the side and back yard. Chairperson Fischer
requested that, if an ordinance limits the amount of impervious surface, it should include an
escape hatch" for narrower lots so families with more vehicles could meet the intent of the code.
Commissioner Rossbach moved the Planning Commission table the residential parking ordinance
to allow staff to prepare a summary.
Commissioner Frost seconded. Ayes— all
