Chair Freeman invited the applicant to address the Commission.
Mary Hetzel—Royal Credit Union introduced and questioned the cut off of the light

that it is the matter of the light shining out in general so a film would not meet
compliance.
Chair Freeman opened the public hearing and invited public comment.

hearing and invited further discussion from the Commission.
Commissioner VanDyke, seconded by Commissioner Giovinazzo, moved to

C. O'Neill Electric Rezoning & Conditional Use Permit—6143 Osgood Ave. N.
Consider requests for rezoning from R-3, Multiple Family to R-B, Residential-
Business Transitional and a Conditional Use Permit to allow residential and
commercial use at 6143 Osgood Ave. N.
City Planner Richards reviewed his July 5, 2018 Planning Report regarding a zoning
district amendment and a conditional use permit to allow the business to operate in
the new district. Richards note that the lot is currently developed with a single-
family style building that is utilized as commercial and residential use, that the
Comprehensive Plan designates the property as commercial use and with the
rezoning, the lot will be brought into conformance with the land use designation.
Richards noted a couple of issues to the site the Planning Commission should be
aware of and of which no conditions have been made within the planning report.
First, there appears to be a discrepancy to the south property line of approximately 2-
3 feet, where current site parking encroaches upon Walgreen's property. The
applicant is aware of this and will need to address this and bring site into
compliance. Secondly, typically there would be landscaping requirements by Zoning
Ordinance. As the site is has not been very well maintained, the Commission may
wish to discuss landscaping improvements.
Brief discussion was had as to the property mapping issue in that the legal
description was correct but the mapping was off. It will need to be taken care of
with Washington County by the applicant.
Planning Commission Minutes
July 12, 2018
Page 4 of 5
Chair Freeman opened the public hearing and invited the applicant to speak.
Dan O'Neill introduced himself and his partner, Erik Stromberg. He noted that they
were seeking the rezoning to maintain the residential unit that is in place with current
structure use mix, that he had no issue with keeping the bucket truck off site until it
can be properly stored inside, that they do not have any plans to add any exterior
lighting and should they do so, they will ensure that it is compliant with City
Ordinance, and that the lawn would be cleaned up and maintained so that it is
presentable. Mr. O'Neill did state that his business has very minimal storage and
that most of it is maintained within their work vehicles.
Discussion commenced as to the two forward approach parking stall, off of Osgood,
at the site and whether or not they were impacted by the work being done by
Washington County. Mr. Stromberg noted that the two stalls are presently used for
handicap parking and access to the building access.
There being no other visitors to the public hearing, Chair Freeman closed the public
hearing.
Brief discussion was had as to the bucket truck being on site for a short duration
versus overnight, until such time the garage is completed.
Commissioner White, seconded by Commissioner Giovinazzo, moved to recommend
City Council approval, subject to the amended conditions of the July 5, 2018
Planning Report, specifically that:
1. Approval of the Conditional Use Permit is subject to the rezoning of the property to
R-B, Residential-Business District.
2. The bucket truck shall be stored offsite until the garage addition is completed. Once
the garage addition has been completed, the bucket truck shall be stored within the
garage.
3. There shall be no exterior storage of materials or equipment on site.
4. The property survey indicates a two to three-foot encroachment of the subject site
parking lot onto the property directly to the south. The property encroachment shall
be resolved by the subject site property owner prior to any expansion of the garage.
5. The applicant shall provide a plan for trash storage.
6. The Applicant shall correct site condition issues, including landscaping, within six
months of this approval by City Council.
7. If additional light fixtures are added or replaced, they shall be full cut off, compliant
with the height requirements, and be consistent with Section 401.15.B.7 of the

® Stantec Memo
To: City of Oak Park Heights, Planning From: Lee Mann, P.E.
Commission City Engineer
File: 193801828 Date: June 28, 2018
Reference: City Utility Comprehensive Plans
This memo provides a summary of the purpose and use of the City's comprehensive utility plans.
Comprehensive utility plans are currently in place for the City's Water,Sanitary Sewer and Storm
Sewer systems.As they are a part of the City's overall Comprehensive Plan, they have also been
updated at this time. In general, these plans provide a tool for the City to plan and operate these
systems, now and for the future.
These plans identify the capacities of the existing systems, and improvements or additions needed in
the future, as the City adds development and/or population. In other words, sizes and capacities of
existing water mains,water supply wells,water reservoirs, sanitary sewer pipes, lift stations, storm
sewer pipes, storm water ponds etc. are confirmed. Future facilities and sizing are planned based
on the growth anticipated in the City's overall Comprehensive Plan.
Water System Master Plan
The City of Oak Park Heights has completed an updated comprehensive water system study. The
Water System Master Plan is the culmination of existing system evaluations and future planning,
based on the 2040 land use plan provided in the City Comprehensive Plan. The Master Plan project
was conducted to develop an updated hydraulic model of the distribution system to evaluate
existing system capacity and identify a complete improvement plan to meet future water system
needs. The model confirms the ability of the City's water system to supply the necessary flow now
and in the future, as the system is expanded.
In addition, all public water suppliers in Minnesota must have a Water Supply Plan (WSP) approved
by the Department of Natural Resources (DNR).The Oak Park Heights WSP was approved February
2018 and is attached to the 2018 Comprehensive Plan as an appendix. The WSP addresses the
following items:
• A description and evaluation of the City's water supply system,
• Emergency preparedness procedures; and
• A water conservation plan
Completing a WSP that receives DNR approval fulfills a water supplier's statutory obligations under
M.S. 13G.291. For water suppliers in the metropolitan area, the WSP will help local governmental units
fulfill their requirements under M.S. 473.859.
Sanitary Sewer
The Oak Park Heights Comprehensive Sewer Plan (CSP) updates previous sewer planning efforts and
describes in detail the City's current sanitary sewer system.The report has been based on the land
use and population data provided in Oak Park Heights' Comprehensive Plan Update.The City's
Design with community in mind

Reference: City Utility Comprehensive Plans
current trunk sewer system serves the entire City. The existing system is in good condition. Sewer
modeling was performed to evaluate the system for the City's ultimate conditions.The modeling
shows no major capacity issues in the City's existing sewer system. No major sewer upgrades are
being proposed within the City as part of the CSP.
Under state law, local governments are required to submit a comprehensive sewer plan describing
the service needs from the regional system, owned and operated by the Metropolitan Council
Environmental Services (MCES).The plans must be consistent with the 2040 Water Resources Policy
Plan provided by the MCES in the event a sewer extension or connection needs to be added that
could impact the regional system.The CSP report has been prepared in accordance with the
Metropolitan Council's guidelines for local Comprehensive Sewer Plans.
Storm Water
The Local Surface Water Management Plan (LSWMP) serves as a comprehensive planning
document to guide the City of Oak Park Heights in conserving, protecting, and managing its surface
water resources.The main issues to be managed include rate control,water quality, volume control,
wetland management, and management of floodplains and shorelands. All new development and
redevelopment have to address these issues to some degree. In addition, some existing storm water
issues are identified for the City to address if/when funding and logistics allow.
Rate control includes managing the runoff during storm events to discharge the flow over a longer
period of time in order to minimize downstream flooding. Rate control is typically accomplished by
routing runoff through ponding areas that hold water and then release the water slowly.
Water quality improvement of stormwater runoff is accomplished through various methods,
including ponding,vegetated swales or ditches, and infiltration/filtration basins. These methods
remove a percentage of the pollutants including phosphorus, sediments and other undesirable
substances.
A more recent issue for stormwater management is volume control. In areas where habitat or
downstream characteristics are sensitive to additional water created by impervious surfaces from
development or redevelopment, reducing the volume of the runoff may be a requirement. Volume
control is accomplished through infiltration basins, water re-use systems (typically for irrigation) or
routing the runoff to plants or trees that in turn utilize the water and discharge excess water to the
atmosphere (evapotranspiration)
The Plan meets the requirements detailed in Minnesota Statutes 103B and Minnesota Rules 8410,
administered by the Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources,which addresses surface water
planning and project implementation. The LSWMP is also consistent with the goals and policies of
the Metropolitan Council's Water Resources Management Policy Plan (which is intended to help
ensure the coordinated, orderly and economic development of the seven-county Twin Cities
metropolitan area), and the three watershed management organizations having jurisdiction within
the City:the Brown's Creek Watershed District (BCWD), the Middle St. Croix Watershed
Management Organization (MSCWMO), and the Valley Branch Watershed District (VBWD).
