Dear Mr. Shimek and Duval:
Several items remain outstanding and in need of attention with regard to the Oak Park Heights
McDonald's location referenced above.
Compliance items to the Temporary Certificate of Occupancy issued were due to the City prior
to July 1, 2013 and remain outstanding. The following are to be provided and/or addressed by
July 31, 2014:
1. Provide me with the energy envelope compliance certificate of the new building;
2. Provide me with the prefabricated building panel inspection approval document(s);
3. Provide me with the "As-Built" Certificate of Survey for this building; and
4. Contact Fire Marshal, Mike Bell at 651.775.5561 to coordinate key placement to the
Rapid Entry lock box that was installed and has not yet been secured for rapid entry by
the Fire Department.
The landscaping deficiency that was brought to your attention in August of 2013 (see enclosed
email communication)remains unresolved. Please communicate how the operator wishes to
proceed on this via submission of a revised landscape plan or remittance of cash in lieu of tree
replacement payment of$1,400,payable to the City of Oak Park Heights.
The development account for the project (City Account No. 45770) currently has an outstanding
balance of$52.00.
Tree City U.S.A.
Lastly, enclosed you will find a copy of the original Metropolitan Council SAC determination
letter of September 12, 2012, clearly indicating that the addition of outdoor seating would be
subject to SAC evaluation. Remit your outside seating plan, including dimensions of seating
area and number of seats to Metropolitan Council for SAC review prior to June 30, 2014. SAC
review submission forms can be found at their website www.metrocouncil.org under the
wastewater and water tab.
At such time, this business has not received a final Certificate of Occupancy. Please note that if
all of the above items are not sufficiently addressed in total by July 31, 2014, the City will be
required to revoke the Temporary Certificate of Occupancy until such time all items are fully
addressed and completed, including any payments related to the SAC review for the outdoor
seating.
Your prompt attention is requested. Please contact me with any questions you may have.
Sincerely,

Subject: McDonald's Installed Landscaping
OPH Staff-
At the request of Building Official,Julie Hultman, I inspected the installed landscaping at the McDonald's re-construction
project on 60th St.. Most of the trees which were included on the plan dated 8/3/12 (date of submittal to city)were not
installed as part of the current landscaping on site.According to my report on the landscape plan and tree replacement
requirement for this project dated 9/11/12, based on the inventory of significant trees on the site,which I completed,
the tree replacement requirement was 99 in. of replacement trees. In the approved landscape plan,they proposed to
plant 33 in. of replacement trees, leaving a tree replacement requirement of 66 in.. The actual inches of replacement
trees planted is 5 inches(1 spruce in front, 1 crab in back). Consequently, in addition to the original cash in lieu of tree
replacement of$3300.,the project now owes an additional $1400.
since the trees shown in the approved plan were not planted. There are shrub and perennial beds around the building
and parking lot which somewhat resemble the beds indicated on the approved landscape plan and the landscaping
which was installed looks fine.

Dear Mr.Butler:
The Metropolitan Council Environmental Services(MCES)Division has determined the SAC to be charged
for the wastewater capacity demand for McDonald's to be located at 14545 60th Street N.within the City of
Oak Park Heights. -
The City will be charged 5 SAC Units for this project,as determined below.
SAC Units
Charges:
Restaurant(includes future demolition)
Indoor seating
93 seats in new plan—48 seats(paid 11/85)=45 seats
45 seats @ 10 seats/SAC Unit= 4.50 or 5
It is the Council's understanding there will be no outdoor seating. If at any time outdoor seating is added a
determination should be made,as it is also subject to SAC evaluation.
Please be aware that the demolition credit is being taken ahead of the actual building demolition and no other
credit will be available. At the time of the actual building demolition note on your SAC-D form that the credit
has already been applied to a new use. Also keep in mind all demolitions must be reported within one month
of the end of the calendar year during which the demolition occurred,in order for the prior use to be eligible
for any credit on the property.
The business information was provided to MCES by the applicant at this time. It is the City's responsibility
to substantiate the business use and size at the time of the final inspection. If there is a change in use or
size,a redetermination will need to be made. If you have any questions,call me at 651-602-1118 or email
