Councilmember Carlson introduced the followin Resolution and moved its .•opt i • 96 -02 -12 SETBACK ZONING VARIANCE WHEREAS, the Director of Community Development initiated a Variance from the zoning ordinance. WHEREAS, this variance ap lies to property on the west side of Highway 61 between Beam Avenue and Gu den's Roadhouse. The legal description will be: That part of the East 723.4 feet of the North 220 feet of the South 473 feet of the Southeast Quarter of the Northeast Quarter of Section 4, Township 29 N, Range 22 W, of the 4th PM lying westerly of the westerly right-of-way l i n e of State Highway No . 61; Except the West 115 feet of the South 350 feet of said Southeast Quarter of the Northeast Quarter.. WHEREAS, Section 36- 151(b)(9)c of the zoning code requires a 350 -foot setback between a maintenance garage and a residential property line. 2 -24 -97 3 WHEREAS, the applicant is proposing a 270 -foot setback between a maintenance on ara a proposed Lot One and the residential property line for 9 9 P P the property at 1241 Beam Avenue. WHEREAS, this requires a variance of 80 feet. WHEREAS, the history of this variance is as follows: 1. On.Februar y 3, 1997, the Planning Commission recommended that the Council approve this variance. 2. The City Council held a public hearing on February 24, 1997. Cit y staff P ublished 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 for the following reasons: 1. The variance would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the ordinance. The proposed owner of the automobile service building is the owner of the adjacent residential property at 1241 Beam Avenue. The proposed variance would not be excessive and would still protect the residential property,--which is the intent of the ordinance. 2. The applicant has shown that strict enforcement would cause undue hardship because of circumstances unique to the property and not created by the property owner. Undue hardship means the owner or developer cannot put the property to a reasonable use if the City denies the variance. The 350- foot - setback requirement makes development of this site difficult. The zoning ordinance created the difficulty and the proposed variance is not excessive. Approval is subject to the ap licant or owner following the site plan date - stam ed February 12, 1997, su ject to any changes required by City staff or P the community design review board (CDRB).

MEMORANDUM DATE: March 10, 1997 TO: Mayor Gary Bastian City Council City Manager FROM: Carol Cude, Chair Human Relations Commission RE: 1996 ANNUAL REPORT In the past year, the Maplewood Human Relations Commission has worked consistently to increase community awareness of diversity and discrimination issues through education, sponsorship, and participation in community events. The activities and accomplishments of the Commission are outlined in this report, as well as its goals and objections for 1997. The seven volunteers that compose the Commission are looking forward to 1997, and working within our community to improve the human relations climate of the community for those who are residents, work here, or just pass through. We hope our work will help to make Maplewood a better place for all. The Maplewood Human Relations Commission respectfully submits its 1996 Annual Report pursuant to Article IV, Sec. 2 -75 of the City Ordinance. March 10, 1997 To The Citizens of Maplewood: I would like to present to the citizens of Maplewood the 1996 Maplewood Human Relations Commission's Annual Report. It is my pleasure to be one of the volunteers on the Commission who has been working in Maplewood to increase awareness of discrimination and diversity issues and how they can affect our community. Although the minority population of Maplewood is small compared to other nearby communities, we cannot ignore these issues. Discrimination affects all of us. One of our goals has been to increase the visibility of the Commission, so that people le in Maplewood would be aware of our existence. To do this we have had a poster contest; offered a diversity award for a community business, group, or school; participated in Maplewood's Ramsey County Fair booth and the . Maplewood Open .House; and sponsored an event at the Community Center. We also help citizens who feel they have experienced discrimination in Maplewood. Therefore, we invite you to read this Annual Report so that you can learn what the Commission accomplished in 1996, and what the plans are for 1997. We invite you to come to one of our monthly meetings, and see what we do in person. You are always welcome. We look forward to meeting you, and hearing your ideas about how we can work to make our community a better place to be.

Left unchecked, such comments can often get out of hand and poison a work, school or social situation. Not responding to these remarks conditions us to . accept them; and if we accept these it may be easier to be accepting of bigotry, discrimination, scapegoating or even violence. While there are no cookbook strategies for confronting such remarks, the following are some effective strategies: In a private conversation -- Don't laugh at the joke or slur • If you know the person, voice your anger to them calmly but pointedly. State how you feel rather than making an abstract statement. Paraphrase the remarks to make sure you perceived the comment as the person meant it. • If the speaker dismisses the objection, continue the dialogue, hear the other person's concerns and point out your own. In.a group setting or meeting -- • If the remark or action is particularly outrageous, regardless of the speaker or the setting, it may be necessary to register your disagreement. • Usually in a group setting it is preferable not to publicly embarrass the person making an offensive comment.. • An excellent alternative is to take the offender aside afterward - then use the strategies as in a private conversation discussed above. • At a large meeting or public talk, passing the speaker a note may be an appropriate means of expressing your displeasure with an offensive comment. General Tips -- • Ask colleagues or friends who heard the remark if they share your views about it. • Try to get at the resentments that lie behind a racial /ethnic slur or joke by asking open ended questions of the perpetrator. • Beware of formal resources that address discrimination, e.g. grievance procedures, EEO office. From "A World of Difference" C GUIDELINES FOR ACHIEVING COMMUNICATION FREE OF RACIAL AND ETHNIC BIAS Introduction The reality of global communication... is here. More and more, countries are becoming multicultural and multilingual. Groups of various heritages are challenging the dominance of West European, influence on daily life in the United States and Canada. Discrimination based on race, color and national origin has been with us for centuries. It remains with us now, despite these trends and a claim to being an enlightened society. our language- -with all its power to reinforce bias and shape though - -is still stubbornly preserving that "old World" culture as the standard against which all other groups are judged. Bias is subtle. The more deeply it has been assimilated, the more difficult it is to uncover. Teachers are, above all else, communicators, and as such it is important for them to examine language, and select ways of communicating that recognize a broadening racial and ethnic culture. 1. Be aware of works, images, and situations that suggest that all or most members of a racial and ethnic groups are the same. Stereotypes may p lead to assumptions that are unsupportable and offensive. They cloud the fact that all attributes may be found in all groups and individuals. Example: The writer who describes Mexican children as "well- dressed" p . may be unconsciously portraying an exception to a mental image of a "poor" or "unkempt" Mexican. 2. Avoid qualifiers that reinforce racial and ethnic stereotypes. A qualifier is added information that suggest an exception to the rule. Example: "The intelligent Black students were guests as part of an orientation program." Under what circumstances would you write, "The intelligent White students... "? 3. Identify by race or ethnic origin only when relevant. Few situations require such identification. Example: If this identification is inappropriate: "Michael Dukakis, noted White Massachusetts Governor..." is this phrasing any different: "Jesse Jackson, celebrated Black Democratic leader... "? 4. Be aware of language that, to some people, has questionable racial or ethnic connotations. While a word or phrase may not be personally offensive to you, it may be to others. Example: "culturally deprived" or "culturally disadvantaged." These terms may imply superiority of one culture over another. In fact, people so labeled are often bicultural and bilingual. 0 (cont.) "Non- white" - this work implies that white is the standard. in North American language, similar words such as "non- black" or "non- yellow" do not exist. "Minority" - this work is accurate in North America. However, its use ignores the fact that people of color comprise the majority of the world's population (anymay comprise the majority of your immediate locale). 5. Be aware of the possible negative implications of color symbolic words. Choose language and usage that do not offend people or reinforce bias. In some instances "black" and "yellow" have become associated with the undesirable or negative. Example: "black reputation," "yellow coward." 6. Avoid patronizing and tokenism toward any racial or ethnic group. Example: Once a year articles or special editions about a particular group may be interpreted as cultural tokenism, especially when such a group constitutes .a large part of your... com unity. This approach may suggest that a racial or ethnic group is out of the mainstream. 7. Substitute substantive information for ethnic cliches. Do more homework. Don't let ethnic cliches substitute for in -depth material. Example: A person of Spanish heritage might prefer to be asked about family history or political experiences rather than about fiestas. 8. Review media to see if all groups are fairly represented. Examples: Are persons portrayed in positions of authority almost invariably white? Does your media provide racial and ethnic role models?

From Video Series, Valuing Diversity -- Communicating Across Cultures. Griggs Production A CLOSER LOOK AT CULTURE by Mako Makagawa Culture is that part of human interactions. and experience that determines how one Is acts and thinks. It is through one's culture that one establishes standards to fee g , judge ri ht from wron , beauty and truth, and to make judgments on ones self as well g g as others. The things and ideas one values and cherishes, how one learns believes, re all immersed in and im acted-by, one's culture. It is one's behaves, reacts, etc., a , culture that prescribes the very sense of the individual's scope of reality. Everyone has culture. To deny anyone culture is to deny human experiences. A. person's culture is not a rigid, static state, but a continuously developing part of his /her life as interactions with others continue. A person absorbs culture from all human resources in one's environment. It naturally follows that (unless one happens to be in the unusual circumstance of social isolation /insulation) most people are aligned with many cultures. Those fortunate people deeply steeped in two ethnic cultures are designated as bicultural people. However, all people are culturally multi- faceted.. Because culture is transmitted either directly or indirectly from others, it is, by definition, a shared experience. It is important to not that, to whatever extent commonalties nalties exist within a given culture group, each member has his/her own p unique profile of that culture. Thus, members of a cultural group have much diversity q within the rou -- each drawing from his /her own unique experiences. This diversity g p within the rou s makes it very difficult to teach about a cultural group with accuracy g p and without succumbing to over - generalizations. The essence of one's culture does not lend itself to a display nor can it be shared on demand. Like a fine, elaborately spun spider web, one's culture is made of many •n intricate strands. Like a snowflake, each patter interlocking, n is unique. Like all • • delicate things, ones culture must be approached with sensitive care. We are not pr y iv to the culture of another without earning the trust and willingness of the keeper of the particular web to freely share of his /herself. Culture cannot be seen, tasted, ed touched smelled or heard. When an attempt is made to introduce someone to a culture through these senses, we are limiting learning to the most superficial form. It may be analogous to a person claiming they know who you are because of having seen a photo image of you. The food tasting and dance exhibitions popular multicultural educational activities, are only as sound as the .i educational objective being promoted. These activities are neither good nor bad. But, unless the are tied to a specific objective of educational value to the student, and . Y appropriate to the intellectual development of the learner, we may be wasting valuable educational time. Too often we are drawn to the colorful or exotic aspects of cultural manifestations and lead students to strengthening rather than reducing stereotyping. This inadvertently g it mode of inappropriate multicultural exercises is often is usually no evidence of ill intent, but the results labeled as the travel brochure approach. There Its are often seen as harmful in that what is learned is not necessarily what was meant to be taught. Much of what is currently presented as multicultural activities falls into the dichotomy of what is referred to as the "Dance or Bleed Syndrome." The cultures of minority people are viewed d as entertainment or painful histories of victimized groups. While both strands of this dichotomy may be based on facts, the full vitality of real people does not emerge through this approach. F (cont.) Effective multicultural education must be integrally linked with higher thinking skills. Effective multicultural education must build on one's understanding of one's self and the interrelationships with others. We must shift from the learning of "them" to .the learning of "us." We must expand our sense of "me" to a sense of "we." (In a future issue of Your Public schools, we will share the concept of "cooperative pluralism" which concerns the learning of "us" and "we. ") We must further our horizons and find creative, fresh strategies to bring to the consciousness of our students the understanding that we each are only one person and we are all part of a total human race of people. In summary: • Culture is shared human experiences and yet each person has his/her own unique profile of culture. • We draw from many cultures to form our own unique patterns. Like the spider, if undisturbed, we can continue to further develop our "web" from such influences as gender, ethnicity, religion, familial practices, hobbies, etc. • Culture is fluid and dynamic - not frozen and static. • There is much diversity within any group, including a cultural group. A homogeneous group has the communality of only that standard which originally identified the group. • Teaching a cultural specific activity must not inadvertently strengthen stereotyping. • The value of a mutlicultural activity must be evaluated on the precision of the activity meeting the educational objective, and the educational objective must be relevant to the future of the learner. • Multicultural activities must be linked to higher thinking skills. Multicultural education should build bridges of trust that close the distances between people.

The culturally sensitive person is one who has moved from being culturally unaware to being aware and sensitive to his /her own cultural baggage. • ethnocentrism • other cultures seen as being equally valuable as own 2. A culturally sensitive person is aware of his /her own values and biases and how they may affect others. • avoids prejudice, unwarranted labeling, stereotyping • tries to avoid preconceived limitations /notions about people from other cultures 3. The culturally sensitive person will have a good understanding of the sociopolitical system's operation in the U.S. with respect to its treatment of people from other cultures. understands impact and operation of oppression (racism, classism, sexism, etc.) • understands racist concepts that have permeated social institutions understands the role cultural racism plays in development of identity and world views among people of color 4. A culturally sensitive person is one who is comfortable with differences that exist between groups in terms of race and beliefs. • does not see differences as deviant • does not profess "color blindness," does not deny existence of differences arising from membership in different racial groups 5. The culturally sensitive person must possess specific knowledge and information about the particular group he /she is interacting with. • aware of history, experiences, cultural values, and life- styles_.of various ethnic /racial groups • the more knowledge possessed, the more effective the communication 6. 'The culturally sensitive person must have a clear and explicit knowledge of the generic characteristics. • language, cultural values, class values • understands value assumptions inherent in his /her profession and how these interact with the culturally different 7. At the skills level, the culturally sensitive person must be able to generate a wide variety of verbal and non - verbal responses. • expands repertoire of responses • understands appropriate time to use these responses It. is important that the* culturally sensitive person respects the world view of others. This does NOT mean each has to hold these world views as his /her own. Rather, it means each is able to see and accept, in a nonjudgmental manner, the legitimacy of alternative ways to view the world.

Culture: All of the learned and shared products of a group or a society. Culture Encapsulation: Maintaining a cocoon by evading reality through ethnocentrism and /or through relativism ( "to each their own ") and depending entirely on one's own internalized value assumptions about what is good for society. Isolation is accentuated by .culture -bound and time- honored values to prevail against the tentativeness of present knowledge. The. same sociological data which can inform us can be misused to reinforce tendencies toward stereotyped images of cultural groups; separating and encapsulating the individual from social reality.

F8 AGENDA REPORT TO: City Manager FROM: City Clerk RE: Personal Service Fees DATE: March 6, 1997 Introduction On November 25, 1997, the City Council approved revisions to the City Clerk Department's annual fees. In reviewing the "Personal Service License" fee for business premise licenses and personal service licenses, there are additional fees that need to be assigned. Background A Business Premise License fee of $540 is required for operation of each personal service business location. For massage centers, saunas and bathhouses, the license fee includes licensing and investigation for the premise and two therapists or attendants. A Personal Service License fee of $166 is required for personal service workers including: escorts, massage therapists, and sauna and bathhouse attendants. Personal service workers must be individually licensed. The individual license allows the licensee to provide services through one or more business premises. The Personal Services Ordinance Section 24.40 states, "Upon the filing of an application for a business premise or individual license under this Chapter, the applicant shall pay in full the investigative fee established by resolution of the City Council. " In reviewing our current fees, there is no annual renewal fee established for Business Premise Licenses nor an investigation fee established for a Personal Service License. Recommendation Establish a 1997 annual renewal fee for Business Premise Licenses of $192 and an investigation fee of $100 for annual Personal Service Licenses. These license fees shall be established annually by resolution of the City Council and shall not be pro - rated. c4r_1 Action by C ouxic, i i MEMORANDUM End rse �.'° Modifie _- Rejecte -- TO: City Manager Date. FROM: Tom Ekstrand, Associate Planner SUBJECT: Conditional Use Permit Reconsideration — Amusement City LOCATION: 1870 Rice Street DATE: February 24, 1997 INTRODUCTION The conditional use permit (CUP) for the golf -ball driving range at Amusement City, 1870, Rice Street, is due for review and to consider ending the permit. The. city council approved this CUP on April 25, 1994. Refer to the maps on pages 3 -5 and the minutes on pages 6 -7. BACKGROUND On October 29, 1996, Ms. Carolyn Wilkerson submitted a petition, signed by 128 people, requesting that the city council close Amusement City's driving range. Refer to the letter, petition statement and the petition sample on pages 8 -12. On November 25, 1996, the city council "moved to set a public hearing to formally review the CUP to determine whether there are valid safety issues which should result in amending or revoking the permit." We scheduled this hearing for March 10, 1997. Past Action November 17, 1977: The city council approved the CUP for the amusement facility. October 22, 1981: Staff approved a racetrack addition. March 9, 1982: The design board approved the bumper boats, mini -golf and batting cages. April 25, 1994: The council revised the CUP to include the driving range.. October 11, 1994: Staff approved a siding change for the equipment building. May 22,1995: The council extended the CUP for one year. May 20, 1996: The council extended the CUP for another year. November 25, 1996: The council reviewed Ms. Wilkerson's compl and moved to review the CUP again in March, 1997. Ordinance Requirements Section 36- 446(a) states that the council may terminate a CUP if the approved conditions have been violated or the use is no longer in effect. Where the construction of a building or structure of $100,000 or more has been permitted, the council shall provide for a period of amortization of not less than five years. Where public health, safety and welfare concerns are threatened, the five -year amortization period is not required and the council may determine the amortization, if any, to be allowed. Section 36- 446(b) states that the council may review a CUP at any time. DISCUSSION Dan Betts and Jerry Anderson, co- owners of the driving range, responded to Ms. Wilkerson's letter and petition. Refer to page 13. They feel that Ms. Wilkerson obtained these signatures " from the patrons of a Rice Street bar; not from Maplewood residents as the petition - letter states. I checked the addresses and found that 105 (82 %) of the 128 petitioners live in Maplewood. Regardless of the number of names on the petition, the issue is whether the number of cars hit by golf balls warrants closing the driving range. Chief Ryan researched the occurrences from 1996. There were four police reports filed involving the driving range. One involved a driving range customer parked along Roselawn Avenue in a no- parking zone. The other three involved cars hit by golf balls on Roselawn Avenue. These instances happened on July 18, August 20, and August 29, 1996. The applicant has not offered any remedy on how to prevent future occurrences. CUP Compliance /Parking Violation Mr. Betts and Mr. Anderson have complied with the conditions of the CUP, but are now violating other parts of the city code. Jerry Anderson is storing cars on the west half of the driving range. This is a violation of the city code vehicle storage expansion of the used car lot requires a CUP. Parking is also restricted to paved surfaces. Parking lots for more than 12, cars, in fact, must have continuous concrete curbing. Mr. Betts told me that Mr. Anderson plans to remove these cars in time for the driving range to open in the spring. I have informed Mr. Betts and Mr. Anderson by certified mail that these cars must be removed from his site by March 31, 1997. Refer to the letter on page 14. Conclusion There is no sure way to confine golf balls to the site. Every golf course and driving range next to a public street has balls along the roadside or in the ditches. Staff does not feel that shutting down the driving range is the best solution right now. The city council should consider monitoring this facility for another season to check its performance record. If golf -ball damage continues, the city should then take stronger action. RECOMMENDATION Review Amusements City's conditional use permit for a driving range in March, 1998 to review the facility's golf -ball damage occurrences. p:sec181amu- city.rev Attachments: 1.

This business is located at 1870 Rice Street. We are seekin g this action due to very serious safety concerns. Being adjacent to Roselawn Avenue it is poorly located and poses safety hazards. Many vehicles and individuals have been struck or nearly struck by golf balls bein g property. hit outside of the A great number of vehicles have sustained damage from those golf balls. There have been several incidents of auto body damage and broken windshields and windows. The owners of Amusement City have been on notice of these occurrences, yet have failed to take any affirmative action. Another grave concern is the large number of children and bicyclists on Roselawn Avenue A stray golf ball can just as well strike one of them causing bodily harm and even death. It is obvious that if a golf ball can .strike a windshield with such impact as to shatter it, it could ve ry well kill a pedestrian if struck in the head. Damages to vehicles are costing insurance companies a great deal of money and there are several incidents of car owners having to pay themselves to have their windows repaired se their insurance does not cover lass replacement. lacement. It does not seem logical that g p insurance companies and citizens should be responsible for paying out large sums of money for damages while the owners are making a sizable profit from this driving range. They have no in on this portion of there business and angrily deny any liability or. responsibility for damages or injuries. Roselawn Avenue has a large amount of traffic. Motorists and pedestrians should in no way have to assume any risk that themselves or their vehicles would be struck by any objects leaving the confines of that .property. In order to avoid inevitable future damages and to prevent potential tragic accidents, we are requesting that this driving be permanently closed in the interest of public safety, g g g ran a g p not only with respect to the residents of Maplewood but to surrounding communities as well. We all hope this is given your very serious attention. 11 Petition To Close Amusement City's Golf Driving Range at Roselawn and Rice.

Amusement City does not have liability insurance for their golf driving by e and have refused to reimburse individuals for damage to their cars cause golf balls even after being contacted by lawyers. Individuals walking or driving on Roselawn are in danger of being injured by golf balls. The golf driving range needs to be shut down to prevent these dangers and further expense to residents of Maplewood.

Roselawn is one of their main traveled and they have never been approached to sign this petition or any other papers about the Rice St. Rang From my direct knowledge this woman has acquired a high percentage of her signatures from bars on Rice St. I have 9 witnesses who said that she told them to SIGN this without even reading it, just sign it. So what we have he is a joke, that has gotten serious. It would take me about 3 days to get me 150 signatures from peolble who actually live in the area, I,will i.f that is what it takes. If so contact meat (941)748 -4730. I hope Maplewood City Council does not base its Conditional Use Permit decision on her say and falsefied petition.

Bradenton, FL 34205 CITY ZONING CODE VIOLATION — AUTOMOBILE PARKING /STORAGE AT THE AMUSEMENT CITY DRIVING RANGE This is to confirm our telephone conversation on Wednesday, February 19, 1997, regarding the cars p arked on your driving range. As I stated, this is a violation of the Maplewood city code. The code does not allow outside storage of used vehicles and the expansion of Jerry Anderson's used car lot unless the city council allows it by conditional use permit (CUP). Parking lots also require pavement and continuous concrete curbing. These cars are parked on the unpaved driving range site. It does not matter whether Mr. Anderson owns part of the land where the parking is taking place. As I stated, the code does not allow the expansion of his car lot without a CUP. Please remove these vehicles from the driving range site by March 31, 1997. 1 am notifying Mr. Anderson of this as well. Please call me at 770 -4563 if you have any questions. THOMAS EKSTRAND ASSOCIATE PLANNER Certified Mail 14 Equal Opportunity Employer 1 i ' MEMORANDUM TO: City Manager FROM: Ken Roberts, Associate Planner SUBJECT: Commercial Property Study DATE: February 19, 1997 INTRODUCTION G -2 .Act by Council e) Endorse ......�. Modif i e e j eoted�. Date On August 12, 1996 the city council directed staff to proceed with the actions outlined in summary format in the August 5, 1996 staff report on the Commercial Property Study. The p urpose of .this study was to evaluate the relationship between commercial and residential zones and the possible methods to control the intensity of uses of commercial properties. Of the ten actions proposed by staff and the planning commission, seven suggest amending particular ordinances relating to parking, landscaping, zoning and th amortization of nonconforming commercial uses in residential areas. One recommendation prompts the city to adopt the city of Chanhassen's landscaping standards on a trial basis for one year. Another recommendation suggests that the planning commission study the intensity of commercial development. This would be to define what intensity means, whether the city needs to control intensity and, if so, ways that the city can control the intensity of commercial development. The recommendation about lifting a moratorium on new or expanding clinics has already been accomplished. At this time, city staff addresses the first six recommendations for action. These recommendations do not require any further research or investigation by staff. The four recommendations that are not considered for action in this report are, according to the recommendation numbers in the summary staff report dated August 5, 1996, (7) parking set - asides, (8) the BC(M) intent statement, (9) the amortization of nonconforming commercial uses in residential districts, and (10) further study of commercial development intensity by the planning commission. City staff will continue to work on Recommendations 7 -10 as our time allows. BACKGROUND On November 18, 1996, the planning commission reviewed several proposed code changes for the commercial property study. The commission suggested changes to the code about landscaping and screening. It was the consensus of the commission to table action on this item P g for more information about building size and exterior wall area. They also wanted to include rules about pawn and gun shop regulations. DISCUSSION 1. "Initiate an ordinance that changes Subsection 36 -27(a) of the city code to require trees and shrubs in addition to grass, but allow the CDRB to waive the requirement where the adjacent owners object." This section requires a landscaped yard of not less than twenty feet in width. Since the planning commission felt that landscaping could mean just grass, they recommended that the council change this subsection to require trees or shrubs besides grass. The community design review board (CDRB) was concerned that this would limit flexibility, especially when neighbors do not want or need screening. Staff recommends a compromise by which staff would add screening as a purpose for the 20- foot -wide area, with the provision that the CDRB may waive the requirement if it is not appropriate or not necessary. Refer to the resolution beginning on page 6. 2. "Initiate an ordinance that states the city may require landscaping with any required screening fencing." Subsection 36 -27(c) and (d) specifies how screening, if required, shall be satisfied and states that a developer may use a combination of screening options to satisfy the screening requirement. The addition of the wording in the above recommendation to Subsection 36 -27(d) explicitly gives the CDRB the option to impose additional landscaping requirements to screening fences. However, the planning commission wanted different language in the code that requires additional landscaping unless the CDRB deems it not appropriate or not necessary. Refer to the resolution beginning on page 6. 3. "Initiate an ordinance that changes Subsection 36- 28(c)(6). This change would increase the maximum setback for large and tall buildings from 75 feet to 100 feet." The impetus for this recommendation stems from the impacts of tall or large buildings next to homes. The CDRB noted that several smaller commercial buildings fit well into their residential surroundings and would not require an increase in the minimum setback. Thus the city should keep the minimum setback of 50 feet, while increasing the maximum setback to 100 feet. Refer to the resolution beginning on page 6. 4. "Initiate an ordinance to change the uses in the commercial districts to conform to the planning commission's list on page 5." The planning commission has recommended making the following changes in commercial uses by zoning district. Within the Business Commercial (BC) district, staff proposes that the following permitted uses be at least 350 feet from any property that the city is planning for residential use: on -sale liquor that is not part of a restaurant, motor vehicle sales (new only or new and used), CNG (compressed natural gas) or LPG (Liquid petroleum gas) dispensing facilities (limited capacity), and check cashing businesses. A craftsman shop, currently a permitted use, shall require a CUP if within 350 feet of a residential use. The following conditionally- permitted uses in the BC district are proposed to be at least 350 feet from any property that the city is planning for residential use: the sale of used cars and major motor fuel station, vehicle wash or maintenance garages, pawn shops and retail gun shops. Refer to the resolution beginning on page 8. Within the Light Manufacturing (M -1) district, staff proposes that the following conditional use be restricted to at least 350 feet from any property that the city is planning for residential use: mining or material recycling. Please refer to the resolution beginning on page 13. City staff is not proposing any changes to the permitted uses in the M -1 zone. The current zoning standards (requiring a CUP if within 350 feet of residential) with the proposed increased building setbacks (page 7) should provide residential areas with enough protection. Staff also proposes to add helistops as an accessory use to a hospital, if it is. not within 350 feet of any property that the city is planning for residential use. Helistops are places for one helicopter to land or take off, but does not include maintenance or fueling operations. Refer to the resolution on page 15. 56 "Lift the moratorium on new or expanding clinics." This has been done. N 6. "Use the monetary standards, vehicular, foundation and aesthetic plantings, etc., from the Chanhassen ordinance for a one -year trial period. At the end of one year, the CDRB shall recommend whether the city should add all or some of the Chanhassen ordinance to the Maplewood code." The community design review board members and city staff are currently using the Chanhassen standards and are evaluating their usefulness. 7. "Initiate an ordinance that allows the city to replace some of the required parking with reserved land in conjunction with a mechanism for actually getting more parking built if the need arises." The purpose of a parking set -aside policy is to preserve greenspace and reduce harmful and environmentally degrading runoff effects from unnecessary impervious parking surface. Much like a parking reduction authorization, parking set- asides.would reduce the amount of land that a developer would pave for parking. The amount of parking would depend on the expected business volume and predicted traffic flows generated from the business. The developer or contractor would not disturb or landscape the area set aside for future parking with sod or other impermanent plantings. If parking demands increase to warrant additional parking, the city would require the business to expand the parking as needed up to the full amount required in the initial site plan. Staff needs to research this issue further before the city takes action on it. The one point of concern would be the creation of a mechanism to require the developer or owner to build all or. part of the set -aside parking area should the need arise. City staff should contact other cities to get different perspectives on this issue. 8. "Initiate an ordinance that would drop the first sentence of the intent section of the BC(M) zoning district." Staff needs to reevaluate this recommendation in terms of what the city intends the BC(M) zoning district to achieve. 9. "Initiate an ordinance to amortize nonconforming uses in residential zones." The city code defines a nonconforming use as "A building, or use of land or of a building, existing at the effective date of any provision of this chapter which does not conform with the requirements of such provision of this chapter,.or a use authorized under Article III of this chapter." In other words, a nonconforming use is a use that was legal, but no longer conforms to the current zoning laws because of a change in the law. The code allows a legal nonconforming use to continue if it does not expand or end for one year or more. The city may allow a nonconforming use to expand by approving a conditional use permit. Zoning ordinances are not retroactive. Existing land uses that do not conform to a new ordinance can continue as a nonconforming use. For example, if the city rezoned a welding shop to single - family residential, the welding shop could continue as a nonconforming use. Most communities do not allow an expansion of a nonconforming use that would prolong its use. This is because a nonconforming use may not be compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. Maplewood requires a conditional use permit (CUP) to expand a nonconforming use. If natural causes destroy a nonconforming building, the owner has one year to reconstruct it or he must rebuild on the site following the current rules. If the owner abandons or does not use a nonconforming building for one year, then the building or use must conform to the current ordinance and standards. Before the city takes action on this recommendation, staff needs to first gain an accurate assessment of the number of such nonconforming uses in the city and gain an understanding of the legal implications of creating an amortization provision. To accomplish this, staff will consult with the city attorney about the legal aspects of such an action, survey surrounding cities to seek out and examine comparable ordinances and possibly request guidance from the League of Minnesota Cities. 10. "Direct the planning commission to study the intensity of commercial development. " , The study should define what intensity of commercial development means and decide whether the city needs to control the intensity of commercial development. If the commission decides that the city needs to control intensity, it should recommend ways to do it. The commission could consider regulation of maximum lot coverage and floor area to lot area ratios. COMMISSION ACTION On November 12, 1996, the community design review board (CDRB) recommended approval of design - related code changes. These proposed changes were slightly different from those now proposed in Recommendation A. On February 3, 1997, the planning commission recommended approval of several code changes as part of the commercial property study. These included the code language about landscaping and screening, the BC and M -1 zoning districts and about conditional use permits. RECOMMENDATIONS A. Approve the resolution beginning on page 6.

I- / MEMORANDUM A ction by CoUncil 0 TO: City Manager Endorse d..... .-- FROM:' Thomas Ekstrand, Associate Planner Modifie -. SUBJECT: Sign Code Amendment ecte DATE: March 10, 1.997 Dat e INTRODUCTION The city council asked staff to review the sign code and to recommend changes and code updates. The city council has not reviewed the sign code in its entirety since 1977. BACKGROUND At the November 12, 1996 city council meeting, council approved first reading of the ordinance amending the sign code with second reading to be no sooner than the January 27, 1997 meeting. This would allow time for the business community to review the proposed amendments. At the December 23, 1996 city council meeting, it was decided to place this topic on the agenda of January 6, 1997 council /manager workshop. Representatives of the business community will be invited to attend to review the proposed ordinance. January 6, 1997: The city council met with a representative from the Suburban Area Chamber of Commerce. Chamber staff indicated that some of the membership had concerns with the followin issues: window sign restrictions, the use and size of banners, and the regulation of car dealership pylon signs. The council took no action on these or other issues with the ordinance and scheduled second reading of the ordinance for the February 10, 1997 council meeting. February 10, 1997: The city council held the public hearing and listened to testimony from the business community as well as the Suburban Area Chamber of Commerce and the White Bear Avenue Business Association. City council directed staff to make several changes to the ordinance and to bring back for second reading on March 10, 1997. Proposed Changes There are several changes being proposed to the sign ordinance. Many minor revisions relating to numbering and definitions have. been changed as well. The more substantive changes are highlighted below. 1. Establish sign criteria for four zoning districts which are not presently covered by the ordinance: F(farm residence) district, RE (residential estate) district, R -1S (small lot single dwelling) district and NC (neighborhood commercial) district. The residential sign requirements will apply to these three residential districts. The NC district would be included with the sign criteria for the LBC (limited business commercial) district. 2. Allows for window signs — either painted on the glass or displayed behind 'the glass. Window signs have not been actively regulated in the past due to vague language; they are actively used, however. The proposed ordinance would allow the use of window signs that would cover no more than 75 of a window's area. This change was requested by the business community. The proposed ordinance would also permit menu boards for drive -up service windows and fuel station price signs in addition to their regular signs. These signs have not been regulated and are a necessary part of the operation of these businesses in addition to identification signs. 3. Reduce the maximum coverage allowed for wall signs in M -1 (light manufacturing) and M -2 (heavy manufacturing) districts. The current requirement was written in error by allowing a ratio of three square feet of sign copy for each linear foot of street frontage. By this rule, a business with 300 feet of street frontage could have 900 square feet of signage on their building. i am proposing that the BC (business commercial) district's maximum wall area coverage of 20% be required for the M -1 and M -2 districts. g icts. There has not been a problem of excessive signage with this percentage. It would simplify the code if each business district had the same regulation for wall sign maxi g mum coverage. 4. The definition of "sign" would be revised to allow architectural lighting, such as neon accents on a building as an architectural design element — not as a sign. Presently, code considers « . n „ , g .y, onsiders any type of visual representation including neon lighting as a sign. 5. Deletion of the term "nonaccessory signs." Nonaccessory signs are now called billboards and are covered by the ordinance. 6. Deletion of the requirement that the city issue a metal tag along with each sig n permit for a permanent sign. This tag was to be permanently attached to each sign and "identify the name of the owner, the date of placement, sign permit number and similar information." The city has never issued such tags. There is no reason to do so. If enforcement is required, it would be the property owner's responsibility for correction. 7. Changes to the nonconforming signs section. Staff had suggested that this section is not needed since it is covered in Section 36 -17 of the zoning ode — The sign code is a ' g g part of the zoning code. The amortization requirements listed in the current code also are not needed. This language was useful at the time of the sign code's adoption in 1977 but is no longer needed since the nonconforming signs have been removed. However, city council recommended. that the language remain in the code and it has been reinstated. 8. Allows the community design review board (CDRB) to approve comprehensive sign plans along with the site, architectural and landscape plans which they currently approve. The city council would have the ability to appeal the CDRB's decision if they wished. 9. Deletion of the annual renewal requirement for billboards. There is no reason for an annual renewal since a billboard would have met code requirements to be installed. 10. Allows two freestanding signs at automobile dealerships; one for the new car dealershi p and for used vehicles. 11. Changes were made to the section pertaining to violations. There are now two. sections: one describes criminal penalties and another describes civil penalties and the appeal p rocess. 12. Changes were made to the temporary sign provisions. New businesses will be allowed to use temporary signs for 60 days for the first year of business. 2 COMMITTEE ACTION /BACKGROUND June 11 1996: The community design review board recommended approval of the proposed sign ordinance changes.

ORDINANCE 772 16 MEMORANDUM TO: Mike McGuire, City Manager FROM: Karen Guilfoile, City Clerk DATE: February 19, 1997 RE: Lawful Gambling License Application Introduction Action by Council: Endorsed �.. Modi i ed.,..— ....W... --.,., Re j e ct e d.p....- ........— - .. D ate— During the January 27, 1997 Council Meeting, an application received from the Royal Guard Jr. Drum & Bugle Corps to operate a pull tab gambling operation at Gulden's g � Roadhouse, 2999 N. Highway 61 was denied. On January 28, 1997 a letter was received from the Royal Guard Jr. Drum & Bugle Corps requesting the opportunity to address the Council regarding this issue. Background After doing an investigation on the applicant, Kathleen Kirchoff, and the. organization, all of the background checks were clear. However, according to City Ordinance Sec. 15 -37 (2), the organization must have been in existence in Maplewood for a least three years, had an office, and held regular monthly meetings in the city. In addition, the organization needs to demonstrate that it has "performed substantial services within the city or on behalf of the residents of Maplewood." Police Chief . Ryan denied the application based on the. information submitted to him contending that the requirements of the ordinance were not fulfilled. After receiving additional information from the applicant Police Chief Ryan still recommends denial. Recommendation I recommend. the applicant be given the opportunity to address council but the request be denied at this time due to their inability to meet the requirements of the ordinance.

Background An investigation has been done -on the applicant, Kathleen Kirchoff, and the organization All. of the background checks are clear. According to City Ordinance Sec. 15 -37 (2), the organization must have been in existence in Maplewood for at least three years, had an office, and hold re 9 ular monthly meetings -in the City In addition, the organization needs to demonstrate that it has "performed substantial services within the City or on behalf of residents of Maplewood." In reviewing the gambling license application, the listed address of the organization is in St. Paul rather than Maplewood. It appears from the roster of members. of the organi that there is only one Maplewood resident listed. That Maplewood resident is the gambl i.ng manager and would appear to be using her address as a means of fulfilling the requirement of the organization holding an office in Maplewood, Recommendation I would recommend denying the application unless the applicant can provide proof that the organization fulf i l l s .the requirement of the ordinance. Action Required Submit to the City Council for their review and handling.

The request was denied however when it was said that this organization did not meet the requirement of the statutory regulations of Maplewood. I was present during the meeting and wanted to fill in some of the blanks if given the opportunity however, not knowing how to get the councils attention I did not address the issue nor answer any questions members may have had. I would like the opportunity to answer questions and to address some of the concerns Police Chief Ryan expressed. 1. Our organization has met in Maplewood since April of 1992 on a consistent basis. Our meetings are held in members homes, primarily since our Board of Directors is not a large group, The Gambling Committee meets monthly also but consists of even a smaller group of people. Our minutes have been kept on a continual basis to fulfill statutory requirements of the Minnesota Gambling Board. Our minutes can be supplied but the location is not part of the requirement. I was the President of this group for approximately S years. We have utilized Charitable gambling as a fundraising method since 1989. I stepped down as President in .1994 to become the Licensed Gambling Manager for the organization.. My address was Maplewood and this was the recognized address for the organization. We have. been meeting at the Maplewood Community Center for the past several months because our Instructors have been working on developing a community relationship within Maplewood. Our group is a small one that was initially started in the Frogtown area of St. Paul. we formed a cooperative effort with a recreation center and recruited from the area. Because we do summer parades and compete at schools in the Winter throughout the Metro area, we have recruited members from all areas of the Cities. Our Directors Tom Ramlow and Sarah Anderson have been working with the Maplewood Recreation Center to instruct for this program with community youth. We currently have been using Carver for practices. This is not a school activity since budgeting has dropped in the school districts this activity is considered a "frill ". However, this is a "lifetime" activity, one that teaches values, team work and leadership. Youth that have participated in this activity are well disciplined and exhibit more maturity than others their age. -In other words, it is not only fun it shapes their lives. Through the use of music the youth learn choreographed movement for Color Guard and are taught drum and brass instrument use. There is no criteria or special skills needed to join. Our group "gives back" to the community with volunteer hours. Adopt a Hiway in Maplewood (Hwy 3 6) is our area and has been for approx. 6 years. We help other organizations do fundraising by performing or just plain sweat equity. We participate in the White Bear Ave. Festival, North St. Paul festival, Stillwater, Forest Lake, Winter Carnival and many many more area celebrations. We have sponsored National Night Out Against Crime in St. Paul and sponsored festivals in other areas that required planning and organizing events. We have donated thousands of dollars from our charitable gambling to youth groups within the City of Saint Paul and can do the same for Maplewood if given the chance. In Maplewood's City Codes Section 15 -37 Conditions, it states: "2. No organization shall be eligible for a gambling license unless, for the three (3) years immediately preceding the date of application, it has had an office, holds regular monthly meetings in the city, has fifteen (15) active members, and demonstrates that during that period it has performed. substantial services within the city or on behalf of residents of Maplewood;" Our group fits the city's requirements. We have 15+ members from all over, but some of the families of the older members are residents of Maplewood. Since 1992 we have met on a consistent basis every month in the City of Maplewood. The Gambiing Committee members also meet monthly in Maplewood. In November, we began meeting at the Recreation Center and sponsored a Craft Show at the Center. The Center Management has approached us to sponsor several shows a year at the Center. We have a storage locker in Maplewood that stores our equipment and have for approx. 4 years. We would appreciate the opportunity to address you and answer questions you may pose to us in order for you to understand our group. our preliminary talks with the management of Gulden's were sincere in that we meet the requirements. Royal Guard Jr. Drum &Bugle Corps Board of Directors AGENDA NO. S� 3 Endorsed -,. AGENDA REPORT M°difie. ode j ectec � Dade TO: City Manager FROM: Finance Director RE: REVISION OF PROCEDURES FOR CANCELLATION OF AMBULANCE BILLS DATE: February 27,1997 PROPOSAL It is proposed that the Council approve (1) the attached revised Application for Cancellation of Ambulance Bill form and (2) authorize the Finance Director to cancel ambulance bills for individuals if their adjusted monthly net household income is under 185% of the most current Federal Poverty Guidelines and their total liquid assets are under $2,000. BACKGROUND On December 23rd the Council tabled action on this topic until the January 6th Council- Manager meeting so that a more specific proposal could be prepared. The attached new Application for Cancellation of Ambulance Bill form and proposed Cancellation Calculation Worksheet discussed at the January 6th Council- Manager meeting. (Also attached is a copy of the application form that has been used for several years.) Page one of the proposed new application form is essentially the same as the current application form. Page two is significantly different; it requires that the applicant list their monthly earned income, unearned income, liquid assets, monthly medical bills and household members. This information is needed to determine if the ambulance bill should be calculated based upon the criteria listed on the proposed Cancellation Calculation Worksheet. This worksheet would be prepared by the Finance Director when the application is reviewed. If the adjusted monthly net household income is under 185% of the most current Federal Poverty Guidelines and the total liquid assets are under $2,000 the balance on the ambulance bill would be cancelled. The adjusted monthly net household income calculation includes a deduction of 20% of earned income for work - related expenses. It is also proposed that the Finance Director be authorized to cancel ambulance bills for individuals if their income and liquid assets are within the guidelines. This would allow applications to be processed more quickly and would decrease the number of items on Council agendas. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Council approve (1) the attached revised Application for Cancellation of Ambulance Bill form and (2) authorize the Finance Director to cancel ambulance bills for individuals if their adjusted monthly net household income is under 185% of the most current Federal Poverty Guidelines and their total liquid assets are under $2,000.

REPORT PURPOSE The Project Memorandum for this Class 11 (Categorical Exclusion) action documents the location, as well as the social, economic and environmental impacts, and design, of the project. Funding information, project description, anticipated schedule, need, and project manager are also discussed. The need for the project is documented as well. The Project Memorandum is one part of the broader Highway Project Development Process in Mn /DOT. II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION A. Loc,, and Setting. TH 61 is one of two main arterials connecting the northeast suburbs to the Twin Cities. The proposed project is located in the city of Maplewood. In the immediate project area, TH 61 is a four -lane divided principal arterial. B. Existing Conditions The inplace Park and Ride facility was built in 1994 with 85 parking stalls. Soon after the Park and Ride was opened its use exceeded the capacity. In the spring of 1996, a Mn /DOT maintenance crew added a temporary overflow parking area which added and additional twenty parking stalls and this too was quickly overflowing. Because of the success of this Park and Ride facility it is desirable to give these transit users a time savings advantage on their daily commute. Since October 1996, TH 36 has had bus shoulder use from 1 -35 E to 1 - W, which helps transit users commuting to Minneapolis avoid traffic congestion. In the summer of 1996, the ramp from westbound TH 36 to southbound 1-35 E was expanded to add a High occupancy Vehicle (HOV) bypass lane, which helps transit users commuting to St. Paul decrease their delay at the ramp meter. It is desirable to add an HOV bypass lane from southbound TH 61 to westbound TH 36 which would help transit users and carpoolers going 4 to both St. Paul and Minneapolis decrease their commute times. Unfortunately, there is not enough right of way to . construct an HOV bypass. C. p ogosed Improvements The proposed project involves expanding the existing Park and Ride facility by approximately 110 additional parking stalls. To provide additional advantages to transit users, a bus only slip ramp will -be built from the TH 61 west frontage road to the ramp from southbound TH 61 to westbound TH 36. This slip ramp is being constructed because of the lack of right of way for an HOV bypass lane in the area. This slip ramp will benefit transit users commuting to both St. Paul and Minneapolis. There are currently ten buses per day which will benefit from the construction of this slip ramp. There will be a gate at the entrance to this slip ramp which will prevent others from using this facility. As a result of these projects, more people will utilize transit and carpooling which should contribute to decreased congestion on- the freeway system. IV. COST AND FUNDING SOURCE Program Est.: $275,000 Latest Est.: $275,000 Funding Program: This project will be financed by the Metropolitan Council Transit Operations.

Transportation 3485 Hadley Avenue North Oakdale, Minnesota 55128 (612) 779 -5066 This project is being undertaken to expand the existing Park and Ride facility and construct a bus Only slip ramp to westbound TH 36. This Park and Ride expansion is being constructed to meet increased demand for transit and carpooling. The bus only slip ramp is being constructed as part of Mn /DOT's policy to give priority to buses, in . an effort to reduce congestion and increase capacity on the metro highway system. ALTERNATIVES Do Nothing: This would not encourage commuters to use transit or carpool.. This condition is not desirable in accordance with Mn /DOT's policy and The Metropolitan Council's request to provide transit advantages. Build: This is the preferred and recommended option. Expanding the Park and Ride and constructing the bus only slip ramp will give preferential treatment to transit users which should result in greater use of this facility. SOCIAL, ECONOMIC, AND ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS This project has been reviewed for its potential effects and impacts., Information is presented for those concerns which merit individual discussion. If no information is presented, the concerns have been considered relative to the appropriate laws, executive orders, rules and regulations, and no potentially significant permanent adverse impacts were found. A complete list of such laws, executive orders, rules, and regulations can be found listed in the Project Manager's Handbook, under "impacts," by specific subject. on MINUTES OF THE MAPLEWOOD COMMUNITY DESIGN REVIEW BOARD 1830 COUNTY ROAD B EAST, MAPLEWOOD, MINNESOTA FEBRUARY 25, 1997 B. Mn /DOT Park and Ride Facility Expansion Highway 61 and County Road C Joe Gladke of .Minnesota Department of Transportation was present at the meeting. Mr. Gladke said he would like to review the landscaping plan for the facility with Tom Ekstrand and a representative of the Maplewood police department. His concern was that the area be sheltered and safe. Mr. Gladke said the bus has a card that signals the gate arm to raise as soon as the bus is within 100 feet. A loop detector closes the gate after the bus has passed. This allows the bus to bypass other cars on the ramp -meter cue for access to Highway 36. No action was required from the Community Design Review Board on this project.

I have met with the neighborhood to discuss their concern about traffic and personal safety. The group that attended the meeting agreed that for the most part lighting in the neighborhood was reasonable, except along Beam Avenue and Walter Street. This loop connecting Highway 61 and County Road D does carry a somewhat larger amount of traffic. There is a sidewalk along the north and east sides of the street and construction of a neighborhood park and tot lot will begin adjacent to the street this summer. The neighbors feel that because of the increased traffic and the investment made in providing a sidewalk, this corridor should be better lit. In order to provide a light about every 300 feet in this corridor, seven additional lights would be required. At the current rate this would cost about $100 per month. The budget impact of this one proposal is not significant. Staff will continue to evaluate future requests so the cumulative budget impact is not severe. It is recommended the city council authorize seven additional street lights along the Beam/Walter corridor. Actual light locations will be coordinated with Northern States Power and the neighborhood by city staff. KGH jc AGENDA NO. AGENDA REPORT TO: City Manager FROM: Finance Director RE: COMMUNITY CENTER QUARTERLY REPORT DATE: March 4, 1997 Action by C ounc i l : Endorsed. - Modifie Rej e o te .o..�.� Date The net operating loss (before depreciation) for the Community Center in 1996 was $5,069 greater than 1995. However, as a percentage of revenues it was smaller than in 1995 (22.6% compared to 23.6 %). Also, the average monthly net loss decreased from $24,387 during the first six months to $22,122 during the second six months. The net operating loss (before depreciation) for 1996 was $279,051 which is $79,051 above the target amount in management's plan to decrease the net loss to zero over five years. The first page attached is community center attendance information for the fourth quarter of 1996. (This is the first quarter for which detailed attendance information was recorded at the Community Center.) It is important to note that the total attendance for the quarter was 68,696 people. The resolution adopting budget policies for the community center provided that it's income statement be placed on the Council agenda every three months for public discussion. Attached is financial data for 1996 compared to 1995 and compared to the budget. Also, attached is financial information for December 1996 compared to December 1995. The first graph shows the operating losses before depreciation for 1996 compared to the same period in 1995. In 1996 the net loss was $279,051 which is $5,069 more in 1995. Detailed financial information is included in the third page attached. This is a financial statement for the calendar year of 1996 compared to 1995. Revenues in 1996 were $1,235,548 which is 6.4% higher than last year. The operating revenue item that increased by the largest percent was pool fees which was up 57.2% ($21,332). Craft Room revenues (birthday parties) were moved to a new account ( #024) so that they can be monitored more closely. Another new account ( #025) was created for Pre- School Program revenues which were included in the Day Care Fees account ( #023) in 1995. Expenses in 1996 were $1,514,599 which is 5.5% higher than 1995. The operating p expense that increased by the largest amount was the pool which was up $55,034. e and benefit cost increases along with more swimming This increase was due to wag g classes Y required b enrollment increases. Swimming class registrations for 1996 were q as follows: Winter - 259, Spring - 336, Summer - 807, Fall - 305. In 1995 the total for the year was 600. The fourth page attached is a graph that shows the operating losses before depreciation for 1996 compared to the budget. The budgeted loss is $173,450 and the actual loss was $279,051. The fifth p a g e attached is a financial statement that compares the budget and actual amounts for the calendar year of 1996. Revenues are 93.9% of the budget and expenditures are 101.7% of the budget. The last ra h attached shows the operating loss before depreciation for December, g p 1996 compared to the same period in 1995. In 1996 the net loss for December was $46,666 compared to a net loss of $47,847 for December, 1995.

S 5 AGENDA REPORT TO: City Manager FROM: Finance Director Action by Council, Endorsed Modif iod Roi-ooto..a. Date RE: BUDGET CHANGE - CONTRACT WITH OAKDALE FOR FIRE SERVICES DATE: March 3,1997 PROPOSAL It is proposed that the General Fund revenue budget for fire suppression services (account 101 -3691) be decreased by $246,000 to compensate for cancellation of the contract with Oakdale for fire services and that this shortage be financed by the fund balance and a $70,860 reduction in the Fire Department budget. BACKGROUND When the 1997 Budget was prepared last summer it included estimated revenues of $246,000 from Oakdale for a fire services contract. On 12 -9 -96 the Council approved a $193,576 contract with Oakdale for these services. Recently the City of Oakdale cancelled this contract and decided to expand their own fire department. The 1997 Budget needs to be adjusted for this change. There are three options: 1. Decrease the contingency account budget. 2. Decrease the budgeted expenditures in the Fire Department. 3. Finance the revenue shortage using the fund balance. The current budget for the contingency account is $156,815 and a large portion of this may be needed to finance unanticipated expenditures during the remainder of 1997. Therefore, the first option is not feasible. The initial 1997 budget for the Fire Department was $1,313,110. There will be an approximate $70,860 reduction in call pay costs due to the cancellation of the Oakdale contract. Most other items in the Fire Department budget are fixed costs. Therefore, the second option can be used to finance $70,860 of the revenue shortage. By process of elimination the third option is needed to finance $175,140. It is feasible as the 1997 budget anticipated a 1 -1 -97 fund balance of $4,645,694 and the actual fund balance will probably be near this amount. The $175,140 reduction in the fund balance can be recouped by an increase in the payable 1998 tax levy. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the General Fund revenue budget for fire suppression services (account 101 -3691) be decreased by $246,000 to compensate for cancellation of the contract with Oakdale for fire services and that this shortage be financed by the fund balance and a $70,860 reduction in the Fire Department budget.

MEMORANDUM DATE: March 10, 1997 TO: Mayor Gary Bastian City Council City Manager FROM: Carol Cude, Chair Human Relations Commission RE: 1996 ANNUAL REPORT In the past year, the Maplewood Human Relations Commission has worked consistently to increase community awareness of diversity and discrimination issues through education, sponsorship, and participation in community events. The activities and accomplishments of the Commission are outlined in this report, as well as its goals and objections for 1997. The seven volunteers that compose the Commission are looking forward to 1997, and working within our community to improve the human relations climate of the community for those who are residents, work here, or just pass through. We hope our work will help to make Maplewood a better place for all. The Maplewood Human Relations Commission respectfully submits its 1996 Annual Report pursuant to Article IV, Sec. 2-75 of the City Ordinance. CITY OF MAPLEWOOD .„. ,,,„ ik,,,, ' ,. . , : �_ 1830 E. COTJM['Y ROAD B MAPLEWOOD, HENT 'ESOTA 55109 , ,,k March 10, 1997 To The Citizens of Maplewood: I would like to present to the citizens of Maplewood the 1996 Maplewood Human Relations Commission's Annual Report. It is my pleasure to be one of the volunteers on the Commission who has been working in Maplewood to increase awareness of discrimination and diversity issues and how they can affect our community. Although the minority population of Maplewood is small compared to other nearby communities, we cannot ignore these issues. Discrimination affects all of us. One of our goals has been to increase the visibility of the Commission, so that people in Maplewood would be aware of our existence. To do this we have had a poster contest; offered a diversity award for a community business, group, or school; participated in Maplewood's Ramsey County Fair booth and the Maplewood Open House; and sponsored an event at the Community Center. We also help citizens who feel they have experienced discrimination in Maplewood. Therefore, we invite you to read this Annual Report so that you can learn what the Commission accomplished in 1996, and what the plans are for 1997.

Left unchecked, such comments can often get out of hand and poison a work, school or social situation. Not responding to these remarks conditions us to accept them; and if we accept these it may be easier to be accepting of bigotry, discrimination, scapegoating or even violence. While there are no cookbook strategies for confronting such remarks, the following are some effective strategies: In a private conversation-- • Don't laugh at the joke or slur • If you know the person, voice your anger to them calmly but pointedly. State how you feel rather than making an abstract statement. Paraphrase the remarks to make sure you perceived the comment as the person meant it. • If the speaker dismisses the objection, continue the dialogue, hear the other person's concerns and point out your own. In a group setting or meeting-- • If the remark or action is particularly outrageous, regardless of the speaker or the setting, it may be necessary to register your disagreement. • Usually in a group setting it is preferable not to publicly embarrass the person making an offensive comment. • An excellent alternative is to take the offender aside afterward - then use the strategies as in a private conversation discussed above. • At a large meeting or public talk, passing the speaker a note may be an appropriate means of expressing your displeasure with an offensive comment. General Tips-- • Ask colleagues or friends who heard the remark if they share your views about it. • Try to get at the resentments that lie behind a racial/ethnic slur or joke by asking open ended questions of the perpetrator. • Beware of formal resources that address discrimination, e.g. grievance procedures, EEO office. From"A World of Difference" C GUIDELINES FOR ACHIEVING COMMUNICATION FREE OF RACIAL AND ETHNIC BIAS Introduction The reality of global communication. . . is here. More and more, countries are becoming multicultural and multilingual. Groups of various heritages are challenging the dominance of West European influence on daily life in the United States and Canada. Discrimination based on race, color and national origin has been with us for centuries. It remains with us now, despite these trends and a claim to being an enlightened society. Our language--with all its power to reinforce bias and shape though--is still stubbornly preserving that "Old World" culture as the standard against which all other groups are judged. Bias is subtle. The more deeply it has been assimilated, the more difficult it is to uncover. Teachers are, above all else, communicators, and as such it is important for them to examine language, and select ways of communicating that recognize a broadening racial and ethnic culture. 1. Be aware of words, images, and situations that suggest that all or most members of a racial and ethnic groups are the same. Stereotypes may lead to assumptions that are unsupportable and offensive. They cloud the fact that all attributes may be found in all groups and individuals. Example: The writer who describes Mexican children as "well-dressed" may be unconsciously portraying an exception to a mental image of a "poor" or "unkempt" Mexican. 2. Avoid qualifiers that reinforce racial and ethnic stereotypes. A qualifier is added information that suggest an exception to the rule. Example: "The intelligent Black students were guests as part of an orientation program." Under what circumstances would you write, "The intelligent White students..."? 3. Identify by race or ethnic origin only when relevant. Few situations require such identification. Example: If this identification is inappropriate: "Michael Dukakis, noted White Massachusetts Governor..." is this phrasing any different: "Jesse Jackson, celebrated Black Democratic leader..."? 4. Be aware of language that, to some people, has questionable racial or ethnic connotations. While a word or phrase may not be personally offensive to you, it may be to others. Example: "culturally deprived" or "culturally disadvantaged." These terms may imply superiority of one culture over another. In fact, people so labeled are often bicultural and bilingual. D (cont.) "Non-white" - this word implies that white is the standard. in North American language, similar words such as "non-black" or "non-yellow" do not exist. "Minority" - this word is accurate in North America. However, its use ignores the fact that people of color comprise the majority of the world's population (any may comprise the majority of your immediate locale). 5. Be aware of the possible negative implications of color symbolic words. Choose language and usage that do not offend people or reinforce bias. In some instances "black" and "yellow" have become associated with the undesirable or negative. Example: "black reputation," "yellow coward." 6. Avoid patronizing and tokenism toward any racial or ethnic group. Example: Once a year articles or special editions about a particular group may be interpreted as cultural tokenism, especially when such a group constitutes a large part of your . . . community. This approach may suggest that a racial or ethnic group is out of the mainstream. 7. Substitute substantive information for ethnic clichés. Do more homework. Don't let ethnic clichés substitute for in-depth material. Example: A person of Spanish heritage might prefer to be asked about family history or political experiences rather than about fiestas. 8. Review media to see if all groups are fairly represented. Examples: Are persons portrayed in positions of authority almost invariably white? Does your media provide racial and ethnic role models? From"A World of Difference" VALUING DIVERSITY The Benefits of Diversity • A source of richness and strength • Promotes creativity and innovation • Better decisions based on different perspectives and viewpoints • Can result in greater productivity • Makes work more fun and interesting • Personal benefits to increasing your comfort level with people who are different Barriers to Being Effective in a Multi-cultural Workplace • Preconceptions and stereotypes about other cultures • Language/communication barriers • Anxiety and discomfort in dealing with differences and unfamiliar experiences • Organizational constraints and rules • Lack of knowledge Cultural Differences • Culture consists of all those things that people have learned to do, believe, value, and enjoy in their history. • Culture is not external but is "within the person" • Millions of people today live and work in a culture other than their own • People have a hard time identifying cultural differences between individuals without calling one or the other superior • Language is an expression of culture and reflects the values of a culture • The valuing of cultural differences is critical to the development of a culturally competent workforce • All cross-cultural interactions/encounters with co-workers and/or clients are potential learning experiences E (cont.) Barriers to Communication in a Multi-cultural Setting • Differences in styles • Lack of awareness of our own and others' non-verbal communication • Difficulty talking about differences • Failure to actively listen • Unexamined assumptions and expectations Valuing Diversity • Make every effort to increase awareness of your own preconceptions and stereotypes of cultures you encounter. • Try to interpret the behavior of people from another culture from their cultural perspective. • Be willing to test, adapt, and change your perceptions to fit new experiences. • Do not judge people from another culture by your own cultural values until you have come to know them and their cultural values. • Maintain objectivity. • Examine your own beliefs and values. • Establish relationships with people like yourself and others who are different. • Recognize the contribution of people different from yourself. • Learn to work constructively with those who have different perspectives and styles. • Look for results, not reasons. • Develop the habit of questioning your assumptions when you are in contact with someone different from yourself. From Video Series, Valuing Diversity--Communicating Across Cultures. Griggs Production A CLOSER LOOK AT CULTURE by Mako Makagawa Culture is that part of human interactions and experience that determines how one feels, acts and thinks. It is through one's culture that one establishes standards to judge right from wrong, beauty and truth, and to make judgments on one's self as well as others. The things and ideas one values and cherishes, how one learns, believes, behaves, reacts, etc., are all immersed in, and impacted by, one's culture. It is one's culture that prescribes the very sense of the individual's scope of reality. Everyone has culture. To deny anyone culture is to deny human experiences. A person's culture is not a rigid, static state, but a continuously developing part of his/her life as interactions with others continue. A person absorbs culture from all human resources in one's environment. It naturally follows that (unless one happens to be in the unusual circumstance of social isolation/insulation) most people are aligned with many cultures. Those fortunate people deeply steeped in two ethnic cultures are designated as bicultural people. However, all people are culturally multi-faceted. Because culture is transmitted either directly or indirectly from others, it is, by definition, a shared experience. It is important to not that, to whatever extent commonalties exist within a given culture group, each member has his/her own unique profile of that culture. Thus, members of a cultural group have much diversity within the group -- each drawing from his/her own unique experiences. This diversity within the groups makes it very difficult to teach about a cultural group with accuracy and without succumbing to over-generalizations. The essence of one's culture does not lend itself to a display nor can it be shared on demand. Like a fine, elaborately spun spider web, one's culture is made of many interlocking, intricate strands. Like a snowflake, each pattern is unique. Like all delicate things, one's culture must be approached with sensitive care. We are not privy to the culture of another without earning the trust and willingness of the keeper of the particular web to freely share of his/herself. Culture cannot be seen, tasted, touched, smelled or heard. When an attempt is made to introduce someone to a culture through these senses, we are limiting learning to the most superficial form. It may be analogous to a person claiming they know who you are because of having seen a photo image of you. The food tasting and dance exhibitions, popular multicultural educational activities, are only as sound as the educational objective being promoted. These activities are neither good nor bad. But, unless they are tied to a specific objective of educational value to the student, and appropriate to the intellectual development of the learner, we may be wasting valuable educational time. Too often we are drawn to the colorful or exotic aspects of cultural manifestations and inadvertently lead students to strengthening rather than reducing stereotyping. This mode of inappropriate multicultural exercises is often labeled as the "travel brochure" approach. There is usually no evidence of ill intent, but the results are often seen as harmful in that what is learned is not necessarily what was meant to be taught. Much of what is currently presented as multicultural activities falls into the dichotomy of what is referred to as the "Dance or Bleed Syndrome." The cultures of minority people are viewed as entertainment or painful histories of victimized groups. While both strands of this dichotomy may be based on facts, the full vitality of real people does not emerge through this approach. F (cont.) Effective multicultural education must be integrally linked with higher thinking skills. Effective multicultural education must build on one's understanding of one's self and the interrelationships with others. We must shift from the learning of"them" to the learning of"us." We must expand our sense of"me" to a sense of"we." (In a future issue of Your Public schools, we will share the concept of"cooperative pluralism" which concerns the learning of"us" and "we.") We must further our horizons and find creative, fresh strategies to bring to the consciousness of our students the understanding that we each are only one person and we are all part of a total human race of people. In summary: • Culture is shared human experiences and yet each person has his/her own unique profile of culture. • We draw from many cultures to form our own unique patterns. Like the spider, if undisturbed, we can continue to further develop our "web" from such influences as gender, ethnicity, religion, familial practices, hobbies, etc. • Culture is fluid and dynamic - not frozen and static. • There is much diversity within any group, including a cultural group. A homogeneous group has the communality of only that standard which originally identified the group. • Teaching a cultural specific activity must not inadvertently strengthen stereotyping. • The value of a mutlicultural activity must be evaluated on the precision of the activity meeting the educational objective, and the educational objective must be relevant to the future of the learner. • Multicultural activities must be linked to higher thinking skills. • Multicultural education should build bridges of trust that close the distances between people. Source: Reprinted from YOUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS/November 1986 CHARACTERISTICS OF A CULTURALLY SENSITIVE PERSON 1. The culturally sensitive person is one who has moved from being culturally unaware to being aware and sensitive to his/her own cultural baggage. • ethnocentrism • other cultures seen as being equally valuable as own 2. A culturally sensitive person is aware of his/her own values and biases and how they may affect others. • avoids prejudice, unwarranted labeling, stereotyping • tries to avoid preconceived limitations/notions about people from other cultures 3. The culturally sensitive person will have a good understanding of the sociopolitical system's operation in the U.S. with respect to its treatment of people from other cultures. • understands impact and operation of oppression (racism, classism, sexism, etc.) • understands racist concepts that have permeated social institutions • understands the role cultural racism plays in development of identity and world views among people of color 4. A culturally sensitive person is one who is comfortable with differences that exist between groups in terms of race and beliefs. • does not see differences as deviant • does not profess "color blindness," does not deny existence of differences arising from membership in different racial groups 5. The culturally sensitive person must possess specific knowledge and information about the particular group he/she is interacting with. • aware of history, experiences, cultural values, and life-styles of various ethnic/racial groups • the more knowledge possessed, the more effective the communication 6. The culturally sensitive person must have a clear and explicit knowledge of the generic characteristics. • language, cultural values, class values • understands value assumptions inherent in his/her profession and how these interact with the culturally different 7. At the skills level, the culturally sensitive person must be able to generate a wide variety of verbal and non-verbal responses. • expands repertoire of responses • understands appropriate time to use these responses It is important that the culturally sensitive person respects the world view of others. This does NOT mean each has to hold these world views as his/her own. Rather, it means each is able to see and accept, in a nonjudgmental manner, the legitimacy of alternative ways to view the world. Excerpt from Counseling the Culturally Different. Theory and Practice by Derald W. Sue. John Wiley and Son Publishers, 1981. G DEFINITIONS Ableism: Attitudes, actions/inactions, policies, and physical environments, which subordinate a person or group because of his/her physical, sensory, psychological, or learning disabilities. Ableism operates on a number of levels: individual, cultural, institutional, and any combination thereof. Beliefs: Cultural agreements about what is true or false; descriptions of assumptions about the world and or our place in it. Classism: Individual, cultural, institutional systems which oppress people who may not have had access to those economic, educational, social, experiential or intellectual resources, which are defined as important by the dominant culture. Culture: All of the learned and shared products of a group or a society. Culture Encapsulation: Maintaining a cocoon by evading reality through ethnocentrism and/or through relativism ("to each their own") and depending entirely on one's own internalized value assumptions about what is good for society. Isolation is accentuated by culture-bound and time-honored values to prevail against the tentativeness of present knowledge. The same sociological data which can inform us can be misused to reinforce tendencies toward stereotyped images of cultural groups; separating and encapsulating the individual from social reality. (From A Handbook for Developing Multicultural Awareness by Paul Pederson.) Cultural Groups in United States: African American, American Indian, Asian American, European American, Hispanic American. Cultural Pluralism/Cultural Diversity: The inclusion of all cultural/ethnic/racial groups. Curriculum: Refers to that body of knowledge which is transmitted to learners; is not limited to formal instruction; includes anything that happens to a student during a school day; is the responsibility of all school district employees, representatives. Discrimination: Behavioral- differential treatment of individuals because of their perceived membership in a minority group. Discrimination: Results from individuals or institutions having the power to act on prejudice. Ethnic/Cultural/Racial Groups: Refers to groups with which individuals identify; based on such commonly shared factors such as language, heritage, geographic origin, religion and/or race. Ethnocentrism: Belief in the inherent superiority of one's own group and culture; it may be accompanied by feelings of contempt for those others who do not belong; it tends to look down upon those considered as foreign; it views and measures alien cultures and groups in terms on one's own culture. Gender Fair: Refers to equity of females and males; does not employ sexist language or practices. H (cont.) Heterosexism: Individual, institutional and cultural systems that oppress people because of their affectional/sexual preference. Homophobia: Fear, anger and hatred of lesbian and gay people. Institutional Racism: Institutional racism represents a social system in which race is the major criterion of role assignment, role rewards, and socialization. After colonial contact takes place, elite monopoly of political, economic, social, cultural, and psychological resources develops, resulting in a social system which is oppressive of all minorities. Minority: An individual who is not part of the power structure; in the United States, usually a female or person or color. Multicultural: Refers to many cultures; goes beyond a white, western perspective Multicultural/Gender-fair Curriculum: A curriculum which weaves information by and about all persons into its learner outcomes, activities and instructional strategies; a curriculum which comes from a salad bowl rather than from a melting pot perspective; a curriculum in which differences are acknowledged, accepted, affirmed, celebrated! Norms: A culture's rules of right and wrong behavior. Oppression: An experience in that the living of one's life is confined and shaped by forces and barriers which are not accidental or occasional and hence avoidable, but are systematically related to each other in such a way as to catch one between and among them and restrict or penalize motion in any direction. It is the experience of being caged in: all avenues, in any direction, are blocked or booby trapped. (From: The Politics of Reality: Essays in Feminist Theory by Marilyn Frye.) Organizational Culture: All of the learned and shared values, beliefs and norms of an organization. Prejudice: An unfavorable opinion or feeling formed beforehand without adequate knowledge, thought or reason. Racism: Any attitude, action or inaction which subordinates a person or group because of his or her color. Racism is based on the ability to exercise power; power + prejudice = racism. Racism can be either individual, cultural or institutional. Sexism: Individual, cultural and institutional systems which oppress people because of their sex. Stereotype: A standardized picture that is held in common by members of a group and represents an oversimplified opinion, effective attitude (influencing feelings and emotions) or uncritical judgment. Values: Those things that a culture regards as morally good or bad, desirable or undesirable. • .a • way, .. , ' .„„ .:-.,...„ 0,.,,, . . , . ., .
