Accept Funds and Authorize Expenditure from Donation Account for Administration, Banners Council Member Edwards had concerns with the policy in place, specifically referring to how to accept and use the donations. Mayor Busho noted that this has been discussed at work sessions and this item should move forward. MOTION by Edwards to table Item 6.h. for discussion at a worksession. Second by Klassen. Discussion ensued. Ayes: Klassen, Cisewski, Busho, Edwards. Nays: Riley. Motion carried. Item 6.1. Authorize Feasibility Report for Connemara Trail Extension, City Project 330 Council Member Klassen asked why 429 debt would be used with this project. City Administrator Burt responded that it was not appropriate in this case to assess the whole project to the developer, St. Joseph's Catholic Church, because this extension has been in the city plans for years and it will improve the east -west traffic flow. The City has not requested any 429 debt in over a year and staff is in favor of this application. If the feasibility report brings out information that would change staff's recommendation there would be opportunity to do that. Evermoor would be assessed 100% for the west end portion, the golf course, manufactured home park, and St. Joseph's Catholic Church for the east portion. Klassen asked if the extension would be completed in 2002 and staff responded affirmatively. MOTION by Klassen to adopt A RESOLUTION ORDERING A FEASIBILITY REPORT FOR THE CONNEMARA TRAIL EXTENSION (FROM SHANNON PARKWAY EAST OF BISCAYNE AVENUE), CITY PROJECT 330. Second by Riley. Ayes: Cisewski, Busho, Riley, Edwards, Klassen. Nays: None. Motion carried. Preliminary Plat Revision for "Washington Heights" Outlot C, McNamara Addition City Planner Pearson reviewed the KFC application for an additional driveway that leads directly to the fast food site in the northwest corner of Outlot C. Staff does not agree with this request because that driveway is only 40 feet from Claret Avenue. Traffic flow would be stack between the driveway and the intersection. Staff recommends aligning the driveway past the lot line requiring access easements for KFC. Angie Wells represented KFC from Ohio. Wells agreed to the change and thanked staff for their awesome job finding a solution. Staff recommended denying the original request and further negotiations would continue with KFC. MOTION by Edwards to adopt A RESOLUTION DENYING THE PRELIMINARY PLAT REVISION BASED UPON FINDINGS OF FACT. Second by Riley. Ayes: Busho, Riley, Edwards, Klassen, Cisewski. Nays: None. Motion carried. Traffic Signing Standards Policy Police Chief Kalstabakken presented a policy regarding placement of traffic control devices. This 2 f ROSEMOUNT CITY PROCEEDINGS REGULAR MEETING NOVEMBER 6, 2001 policy will clarify the City's procedures for determining placement of traffic control signs and signals in a uniform way. The policy follows the standards and recommendations of the Minnesota Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices and focuses on public safety. MOTION by Klassen to adopt City Policy PS —1: Traffic Signing Standards. Second by Edwards. Ayes: Riley, Edwards, Klassen, Cisewski, Busho. Nays: None. Motion carried. SKB Interim Use Permit Modification City Planner Pearson introduced a team of representatives for SKB Environmental: Rick O'Gara, Mike Fullerton, Bill Keagan, and John Domke. SKB was established in 1992 and modified its Interim Use Permit in 1997 for construction of a demolition cell. Their current request is to increase the capacity of the overall Waste Management lot by utilizing the gaps between the existing cells which would give it a more natural look hill look rather than four pyramid shapes. The ]UP now allows for 200,000 cubic yards and the expanded amount is 5,750,000 cubic yards. Council Member Klassen noted that this should be handled like a zoning amendment and allow for a public hearing. Council Member Edwards also believed this should require a zoning ordinance change first, then consider SKB's request. Pearson noted that hazardous waste is not allowed anywhere on this site. Rick O'Gara, President of SKB gave a presentation with models showing the change this would make for the end use. Additional landscaping would be incorporated and top soil 4 to 12 feet deep allowing for large trees to be planted. O'Gara was asked about traffic which he said would increase to 185 trucks per day from 150 to 25 trucks now delivering waste. Access would change to improve safety. Council Member Cisewski asked about this being similar to a "transfer station" which was denied two years ago. O'Gara noted that all loads are required to be identified and reported to Dakota County. The Environment Protection Agency keeps records of all calls and the disposal process. The liners are thicker than requirements call for and the leachate will be hauled away. O'Gara noted that there have never been any violations at any of his companies. City Attorney LeFevere gave some options for Council to follow. MOTION by Busho to direct staff to start the process to amend the zoning ordinance for the Waste Management District and get further detailed information for the Interim Use Permit. No second. Motion died. Discussion ensued. MOTION by Edwards to deny the resolution amending the Interim Use Permit for SKB. Second by Klassen. Ayes: Klassen, Cisewski, Busho, Riley, Edwards. Nays: None. Motion carried City Administrator Burt suggested that this discussion be continued until the zoning ordinance can be amended, about 30 to 35 days. Additional information should be available then from the state and the county. Council Member Klassen noted that she was opposed to this amendment. Klassen said she was against incinerator ash several years ago and maintains that sentiment. Klassen asked who would be responsible when the liners wear out in 2038? Would the city have liability then? Klassen felt there 3 1 1 ROSEMOUNT CITY PROCEEDINGS REGULAR MEETING NOVEMBER 6, 2001 were too many questions with out answers. Mayor Busho said that SKB has had four different owners since its beginning. Busho noted that SKB is the most responsible of all the owners. Busho said she would support a zoning ordinance amendment for SKB. Council Member Cisewski said she was uncomfortable with the huge volume being requested. Council Member Riley noted that this was already a permitted use and the area cannot be magically removed. MOTION by Edwards to move the agenda. Second by Klassen. Discussion occurred. Ayes: Edwards, Klassen. Nays: Cisewski, Busho, Riley. Motion failed. Council Member Edwards said the hour was late and he "moved the agenda" to shorten the meeting. The City Attorney explained this would have required that discussion on the SKB request stop and the next item on the agenda would be considered. MOTION by Busho to direct staff to go to the Planning Commission to review the Waste Management District ordinance, continue to gather more detail and review the Interim Use Permit conditions for SKB. Second by Riley. Ayes: Busho, Riley, Cisewski. Nays: Edwards, Klassen. Motion carried. Associated Wood Products: Set Date of Public Hearing City Administrator Burt recommended this be pulled from the agenda based on the need for further information. Council and staff agreed. Announcements Mayor Busho noted that the deadline for submitting names for the Planning Commissioner vacancy is Wednesday, November 7, 2001, at noon. Mayor Busho adjourned the meeting at 10:45 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Linda Jentink, City Clerk The City Council Agenda Packet is Clerk's File 2001 -37. 4
