Green Building Program Ordinance
January 15,2013
INTRODUCTION
The City adopted an energy efficiency and conservation strategy in December 2009. The
strategy was required as part of the City's energy efficiency conservation block grant. One
purpose for the strategy is to help establish policies and priorities to move Maplewood in the
direction of improved long-term operational energy efficiency.
I mplementation of the strategy includes the adoption of energy policies that will ensure
achievement of the City's en~rgy goals. This green building program ordinance will assist in the
promotion of green building practices throughout the City. The city of Maplewood will lead by
example and provide incentives for others to accomplish similar goals.
BACKGROUND
Just over three years ago the Maplewood city council approved an exploratory green building
program search that would promote a city wide green building program that would be effective
and with efficient results.
After detailed analysis the building inspection division of the community development
department partnered with the International Code Council to assist in the development of the
National Green Building Standards for residential buildings and the International Green
Construction Code for commercial buildings.
A seminar was constructed where all the Maplewood Community Boards and the City Council
were presented with a complete description of the National Green Building Standards and the
International Green Construction Codes inCluding an incentive program and implementation
plan.
On May 01, 2012, the 2012 International Green Construction Code (lgCC) publication was
released. The city of Maplewood is now recognized as a leader in "green building" and bridging
the gap for progress. The follOWing is a condensed outlined detail of the proposed ordinance
and some commonly asked questions.
1. The ordinance should promote green building construction in all property zones.
. This ordinance will accomplish these goals by including all occupancy
groups, construction types and property zones.
2. The green building ordnance is mandatory for all city owned and city financed
buildings.
. City owned buildings and projects are covered as "mandatory" by this
ordinance. City owned existing buildings will lie prioritized for compliance with
the 2012 IgCC Chapter 10. All city financed buildings and projects will be
considered by the City Manager, or designee, and approved by the city
council to determine inclusion in this green building program.
3. How does the ordinance address the city's existing buildings?
. City owned existing buildings and projects will be prioritized for compliance
with the 20121gCC Chapter 10.
4. Review the International Green Construction Code content.
5. Review the National Green Building Standards content.
6. How does the incentive program function?
. The Community Development Director and Building Official shall annually
consider an incentive program.
. The Community Development Director and Building Official shall establish a
budget jtemfor the "Maplewood Green Building Program".
. The Community Development Director and Building Official shall establish the
residential performance level and monetary incentive rewards.
. The Community Development Director and Building Official shall establish
"certificates of compliance" to be awarded.
. The Community Development Director and Building Official shall establish a
community recognition agenda profile.

REQUIREMENTS DETERMINED BY THE JURISDICTION SYNOPSIS (Maplewood)
.,
Table 302.1 outlines the jurisdictional requirements which must be completed by the City of
Maplewood. This table provides an opportunity for the city to customize the 2012 IgCC beyond
the minimum requirements and meet local environmental priorities. A response to all categories
is required to be addressed. The following is an explanation to that table response.
3
CHAPTER 1. Scope
This chapter indicates that the National Green Building Standards will be the base document for
detached one- and two- family dwellings, multiple single-family dwellings (townhouses) not more
than three stories in height.
Group R-3 residential buildings, their accessory structures, and the site or lot upon which these
buildings are located.
Group R-2 and R-4 shall comply with the 2012 International Green Construction Code as a base
document.
CHAPTER 4. Site Development and land Use
The requirements listed are considered covered and protected by current city ordinances as
established by Public Works and Community Development departments. Indicating a "no"
answer allows those departments to operate as established.
. CHAPTER 5. Material Resource Conservation and Efficiency
The IgCC minimum requirement is that not less than 50% of nonhazardous construction waste
be diverted from landfill disposal. Research indicates that the city of Maplewood and the state of
Minnesota have ample waste management resource programs to increase this requirement to a
minimum of 75%.
CHAPTER 6. Energy Conservation, Efficiency and C02 Emission Reduction
The city of Maplewood has not deleted IgCC Chapter 6 but rather has deemed this Chapter 6 as
optional. The 2012 International Energy Conservation Code will typically be used as the base
document for all energy related issues. No increase is necessary.
CHAPTER 7. Water Conservation
Municipal reclaimed water is not available to the city of Maplewood at this time. No increase is
necessary.
CHAPTER 8. Indoor Environmental Quality and Comfort
The city of Maplewood agrees that the base document minimums meet all the requirements
necessary for indoor air and sound transmission quality.
CHAPTER 10. Existing Buildings
All city of Maplewood owned buildings and city of Maplewood financed buildings shall meet the
requirements specified in 2012 IgCC Section 1007.2. As part of Maplewood's sustainability
goals all "covered" buildings shall be brought into compliance with this code. "Covered" existing
buildings will be prioritized for compliance.

Commissioner Introductions
January 15, 2013
INTRODUCTION
On December 10,2012, the city council approved a city ordinance amendment officially
combining the business and economic development commission (BEDC) and the housing and
redevelopment authority (HRA) to create the new housing and economic development
commission (HEDC).
DISCUSSION
At the January 24.2013 HEDC meeting, commissioners will be provided an opportunity to
introduce themselves to their new co-members. The members will have the opportunity to
introduce themselves and talk about why serving on the HEDC is important to them.
RECOMMENDATION
No action required.

Discussion of HEDC Meeting Times
January 15, 2013
INTRODUCTION
The newly formed housing and economic development commission (HEDC) needs to discuss
establishing its regular meeting times. Previously, the business and economic development
commission (BEDC) met the fourth Thursday of every month at 6 p.m. and the housing and
redevelopment authority (HRA) met the second Wednesday of every month at 7 p.m.
DISCUSSION
The council chambers are heavily used meaning that options for meeting dates are limited. For
example, no Mondays or Tuesdays are available to meet. This means the HEDC will either meet
on a Wednesday or a Thursday as the two previous groups did. Staff did survey the BEDC to
see if there were conflicts with a Wednesday meeting time and one member indicated
Wednesdays would not work. As of the writing of this report, the first, second and fourth
Wednesdays of the month and the first, third and fourth Thursdays of the month are available for
the HEDC. Staff would recommend keeping the BEDC's meeting date - the fourth Thursday of
the month.
In addition to the meeting date, the HEDC needs to discuss the starting time of its meetings.
The BEDC began its meetings at 6 p.m. while the HRA started at 7 p.m. HEDC members
should be prepared to discuss whether a 6 or 7 p.m., starting time would work better. In
addition, the BEDC had at onetime been considered to have morning meetings but this was
discarded by past members. Staff is not pushing for this idea but wants members of the HEDC
to know if there was enough support for a morning meeting it could be accommodated.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends scheduling the HEDC's normal meeting time for 6 p.m. every fourth Thursday
of the month.

Approval of Housing and Economic Development
Commission (HEDC) Rules of Procedure
January 15, 2013
INTRODUCTION
The ordinance establishing the housing and economic development commission (HEDC)
was adopted by the city council on December 10, 2012. The ordinance states that the
commission shall elect its own officers, establish meeting times, and adopt its own rules
of procedure to be reviewed and approved by the city council (Attachment 1).
DISCUSSION
Rules of procedure will help the HEDC facilitate the conduct of meetings and reduce the
risk of mishandling important matters. Rules usually cover issues like the place and time
of regular meetings, the order of business, parliamentary rules governing procedure, and
minutes.
Attached to this report are the draft HEDC's rules of procedure for review. These rules
discuss meeting times, quorum, duties of the chairperson, election of officers, agendas,
appointments, parliamentary procedures, and amendments. The HEDC ordinance was
written and adopted to include some of these procedures. Therefore, the HEDC rules
can refer to procedures as spelled out in the ordinance, but do not conflict with the
ordinance.
The draft HEDC's rules of procedure were built largely with the guidance of the city's
commissioner handbook. The HEDC's recommended rules of procedure will go to the
city council for final approval.
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the HEDC's rules of procedure.

Mark Jenkins served as chairperson of the business and economic development commission
with Gary Kloncz as vice chairperson. The housing and redevelopment authority's chairperson
position was open as 2012 concluded with Beth Ulrich serving as vice chairperson
DISCUSSION
The Commission Handbook states officers should be elected at the first regular meeting in
December. However, the HEDC did not meet in December, so the commission will need to
nominate and elect officers at its first meeting in January. Staff is recommending the HEDC
elect a chairperson and vice-chairperson to serve in 2013. On January 24,2013, nominations
will be taken for officers to serve through 2013. The handbook has a section which deals with
the role of the chairperson and vice chairperson. Below is the excerpt from the handbook:
Role of the Chairperson and Vice Chairperson
Commissions generally appoint the chair and vice chair at set times of the year. Although the appointment
is usually for a year, the chair and vice chair selVe at the pleasure of the commission. The willingness and
ability of an individual to selVe as the chair or vice chair should be taken into consideration. Commissions
should tty to give all commissioners an opportunity to selVe as chair. The responsibility of selVice as chair
or vice chair does take extra time.
Responsibilities of the Chair.'
. Preside at all official meetings of the board, commission, or committee.
. Consult with the staff liaison in drafting the meeting agenda.
. Attend City Council meetings, in person or through another commissioner as designee, as needed
to represent the commission, board, or committee with the approval of the commission, board, or
committee.
. Sign correspondence from the commission with the approval of the City Council.
The effective chairperson also, during meetings:
. Solicits opinions and positions from reticent commission members.
. Protects new thoughts from being rejected prior to fair evaluation.
. Discourages blame-orientated statements.
. Keeps the discussion focused on the issue.
. Builds trust by even handedness and fairness to all the participants.
Responsibilities of the Vice Chair:
. Substitute for the Chair as needed.
The section is silent on the procedure for election of the chairperson and vice chairperson.
HEDC members should voice nominations for chair and vice chair, and the body will then vote
for the positions. If only one nomination emerges for each position, a motion can be made to
formally appoint that person to the post. If there is more than one nomination, the HEDC should
vote publicly to decide which candidate will be appointed.
RECOMMENDATION
Consider nominations and elect a chairperson and vice chairperson for 2013.

Commissioner Ulrich's term was up for reappointment in the fall of 2012. Because the BEDC was
being considered for a potential combination with the HRA the city council did not entertain any
reappointments or new appointments. City ordinance allows for members whose terms have
expired to continue to serve until the council takes action. In addition, Commissioner Ulrich also
served on the HRA, which the council ultimately did merge with the BEDC.

DISCUSSION
2012 Actions/Activities
In 2012, the BEDC continued its commitment to development and redevelopment in the city of
Maplewood by working on several projects. The BEDC spent most of the year developing a work
plan with the assistaf1ce of Janna King, who contracted with the city. The work plan was finalized
in November of 2012 and will continue to serve as a guide for the new housing and economic
development commission (HEDC).
Staff worked to make sure the BEDC stayed informed on important development occurring within
the city. These efforts included presentations on the planned roadway improvements to the
Highway 120 and Interstate 94 intersection, 3M's new research facility, city-owned properties that
are to be put up for sale and a monthly overview of land use development or redevelopment
applications being reviewed by the city.
The BEDC also worked towards strengthening ties to the larger community as well. Department of
Employment and Economic Development Commissioner Mark Philips presented to the commission
and discussed methods of utilizing state resources at the local level.
2013 Activities
In December of 2012, the BEDC merged with the HRA to create the HEDC. The existing BEDC
members will be working with existing HRA members on creating a shared vision for economic
development for all sectors in the city of Maplewood.
CONCLUSION
In 2013, the HEDC will carryon the BEDC's dedication to the development and enhancement of
the business community in the city of Maplewood.
RECOMMENDATION
Approve the BEDC's 2012 annual report.

Update on Tax-Forfeited Properties
1160 FrostAvenue
January 15, 2013
TO:
FROM:
INTRODUCTION
Kristine Kujala, of the Tax-Forfeited Lands division with Ramsey County, has notified the
city of two parcels that have gone tax forfeit. The parcels are located at 1160 Frost
Avenue, directly west of the Gladstone Savannah. The two parcels add up to 2.37 acres
of vacant land. The city's 2030 Comprehensive Plan guides the parcels as medium
density residential.
In Ms. Kujala's letter to the city, she explains the conveyance options as outlined by
Minnesota State Statue. Ms. Kujala's letter is attached to this report. One of the options
the city has is ,to pass a resolution requesting the county withhold selling the parcels at
public auction for six months in order to give the city time to determine if it has a need for
this property. Also the six month period would be used to decide if the city or economic
development authority could playa role in the redevelopment of this land.
DISCUSSION
Staff is requested the council approve the attached resolution requesting the county
grant the city a six-month extension to withhold these parcels from public auction so staff
can fully evaluate the public need or potential redevelopment opportunities for this lot.
Ms. Kujala recommends the city first secure the six-month extension to withhold this site
from public auction. This would give the city time to submit the required paperwork if it
intends to use or acquire the properties. If the city determines it has no need for the
properties, they would then be sold by Ramsey County via auction.
The city council did approve the resolution and Ramsey County will be withholding the
properties from public sale.
RECOMMENDATION
Review this report and the attachments.

opportunity for the city to acquire a use deed or purchase tax forfeited lots.
WHEREAS, the properties are located west of the Gladstone Savannah on Frost
Avenue, legal property identification numbers as follows:

WHEREAS, the City of Maplewood, has the option to request a six-month
extension to delay the County's sale of these parcels to the public. The city can use this
time to further evaluate the city's need for this property and to submit the required
documentation as needed.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the city council hereby formally
requests Ramsey County withhold these two parcels on Frost Avenue for six months
from public sale or auction. This will enable the city time to more thoroughly analyze its
need for the parcels for public purposes and to submit the necessary application
materials. .
The Maplewood City Council approved this resolution on January 14, 2013.

Re: 2012 Tax Forfeiture Classification List
Deanlm Antonen:
Enclosed is a list of properties located In your municipality which forfeited on August 1, 2012 for failure
of the owners to pay the property taxes. Pursuant to county board resolutions 98-047 and 2010-366
delegating c1assificationauthorlty to Property Records and Revenlle, we.have reviewed and cla,sslfied all
of the parcels on the list as either non-conservation or conservation lands. Minnesota Statutes, section
282.01, subd. 1, requires the county to notify each city or township of the ciassiflcation of the newly
forfeited properties iocated within their boundaries for their approval or disapproval of that
classification. this starts the 60-day notification period.
You may request a conveyance of a parcel of tax forfeited land during the 60-day notification period by
submitting an application or written request, whichever is appropriate for the conveyance, along with a
certified resolution. You may also request that a parcel be withheld from sale or lease for a maximum of
six-months. Withhold requests must be In writing and accompanied by a certified resolution stating the
reason for the withhold request for each property. You are responsible for paying maintenance costs
Incurred during the withholding period if you acquire the property. If an application or request to
acquire a property Is not received within the 60-day notification period or six-month hold period, the
property will become available for public sale.
If you wish to acquire any of the parcels for an authorized public use you must submit an application for
a conditional "use deed" accompanied by a certified resolution of the governing body stating the public
use for the property. The use must qualify as one of the eight recently defined uses listed in statute and
outlined further below. The fee for a use deed is now $250, payable to the commissioner of revenue.
Use deed forms can be obtained from our office upon request.
Attachment 3
Please be advised that you have three years from the date of the use deed to put the land to the stated
use. If you faii to do so or abandon the use, you h;lve the option to purchase the property; otherwise it
will revert back to the State. This also applies.when only part of the parcel is being lised for an
, authorized public use. Governmentaisubdivisions may retain title to the part that continues to be used
,as aut)1orlzed; however, title to the part that is not being used must be purchased or re-conveyed.
In 2019, ,th~ Minnesota Legislature revised and expanded the options In which'a governm~ntal
subdivislo"n can acquire tax-forfeited properties. Some of the changes you should be aware of are the
limits on the uses of a conditional use deed and new alternatives for acquiring tax-forfeited lands for
'less than fuil market value. The conv~yance options are as foilows:
. Purchase at market value .: '
. Conditional "Use Deed" (free of charge) - Acceptable,publlc uses are limited to:
. Road or right-of-way for a road;
.park,that is both available to, and accesslbleby, the public that contains
amenities such as campgrounds, playgrounds, athletic fields, trails, or shelters;

with a reasonable amount of surrounding land maintained In its'na'tural state;
