ITEM SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING
SEPTEMBER 15, 2004
Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, a special meeting of the Rosemount City Council was
duly held on Wednesday, September 15, 2004, at 7:30 p.m. at the Rosemount Community
Center, 13885 South Robert Trail.
Mayor Droste called the meeting to order with Council Members Strayton, Riley, Shoe - Corrigan
and DeBettignies present. Also present were City Administrator Verbrugge, Community
Development Director Lindquist, City Engineer Brotzler, Parks and Recreation Director Schultz
and Communications Coordinator Cox.
Consider Assessment Agreement for Community of Hope Lutheran Church
City Engineer Brotzler reviewed the letter submitted by Community of Hope Lutheran Church.
Pastor Per Nilsen suggested two phases to building the church with the assessments split between
Phase 1 and future property development. Brotzler noted that an agreement would be required to
satisfy the City for collection of the remaining assessment in the future. This type of agreement
was done for St. Joseph's Church building project last year. Brotzler noted this would not be
allowed for commercial development. Community Development Director Lindquist noted that
the church could pay for the assessment over a five -year period. Lindquist explained that this is
an interim use since the land is zoned Business Park. The type of building the church is
proposing could easily be converted to a business when their congregation growth allows them to
build at another site. Several other communities have allowed this same land use. Brotzler noted
that phasing a development is not typically done for lots of record; more frequently phasing is
found when developing outlots. This project is unique in its development.
MOTION by Riley to enter into an assessment agreement, as prepared by the City Attorney, with
Community of Hope Lutheran Church and authorize the necessary signatures. Second by
DeBettignies. Ayes: DeBettignies, Riley, Strayton, Shoe - Corrigan, Droste. Nays: None. Motion
carried.
Schedule Special Work Session
City Administrator Verbrugge requested a special work session following the regular City
Council meeting on September 21. This will spread out the number of discussion items so the
next work session will be a reasonable length. The two topics to be considered are public
facilities projects and hiring practices.
MOTION by Riley to schedule a special City Council Work Session on September 21, 2004,
immediately following the regular City Council meeting. Second by Shoe - Corrigan. Ayes: Riley,
Strayton, Shoe- Corrigan, Droste. Nays: None. Motion carried.
Mayor Droste adjourned the meeting at 6:43 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,
Linda Jentink, City Clerk
