Visioning Exercise for Future Redevelopment of 1407 Larpenteur Avenue West (Get ## Pressed) (6:00 P.M.) Linehan introduced the item and Kristin Prososki of the Technical Assistance to Brownfields (TAB) program through Kansas State University, noting that TAB had been engaged to provide pro bono professional assistance, funded through the EPA, to help the city guide the future land use of the recently acquired property at 1407 Larpenteur Avenue West, formerly known as Get Pressed. Prososki provided an overview of the TAB program, explaining that it is a nationally funded EPA initiative offering free, customized services to municipalities and tribes navigating brownfield redevelopment challenges. Kansas State University serves as the TAB provider for EPA Regions 5 through 8, covering 21 states including Minnesota. Services include strategic planning, reuse visioning, community outreach support, economic feasibility analysis, and assistance with grant applications. Prososki outlined the environmental due diligence completed on the site, commending the city for taking a proactive approach that is less common among municipalities. Phase I and Phase II ## Environmental Site Assessments were completed through the MPCA's Targeted Brownfield Assessment Grant program in 2024, confirming the presence of contaminants including PCE and TCE from prior dry-cleaning operations, as well as lead, gasoline range organics (GRO), and diesel range organics (DRO) associated with the site's former use as a gas station. Approximately 945 cubic yards of contaminated material would require excavation from two identified hotspot areas. A sealed underground fuel tank also remains on site and would need to be removed. Asbestos was found in limited locations within the existing building, including floor tiles and window caulking. Linehan noted that the prior Response Action Plan (RAP) was developed in the context of a proposal for 10 to 12 market-rate townhomes, at an estimated remediation cost of approximately $370,000. He clarified that any new or different proposal would necessitate a new, use-specific RAP and updated cost estimate. Prososki confirmed that vapor mitigation systems would likely be required regardless of the future use, given the site's history as a dry cleaner. Prososki identified several cleanup grant programs available to the city: the Minnesota ## Department of Employment and Economic Development (DEED) Contamination Cleanup and ## Investigation Grants, the Met Council Livable Communities Environmental Site Investigation and Cleanup program, and the Ramsey County Environmental Response Fund. She noted that grant applications are most competitive once a developer is identified and a project is ready to proceed, with grant rounds occurring every six months. Wassenberg asked whether grants were available for a public use such as a park, given that DEED funding is heavily weighted toward economic development outcomes. Prososki acknowledged that DEED grants would be difficult to obtain for a park use, but indicated that Met Council and Ramsey County programs may offer more flexibility. Council discussion centered on three broad categories of potential reuse: commercial, housing, and a public pocket park. The council engaged in substantive debate about the merits and feasibility of each. Mielke raised the possibility of a pocket park, noting that the northeast quadrant of the city has no public park and that the school playground in the area is inaccessible to the general public during school hours. She acknowledged the site's location on a busy street would require careful planning to ensure safety. May expressed strong support for either a park or affordable housing, noting the city's ongoing need for affordable housing as naturally occurring affordable rental units along the Larpenteur corridor are lost over time. She indicated less enthusiasm for commercial redevelopment, citing concerns about traffic impacts on neighboring Albert Street residents and the mixed track record of isolated commercial uses along Larpenteur. She suggested the possibility of releasing a broadly framed RFP open to both commercial and housing proposals, allowing the market to determine the best fit. Mogen raised fiscal concerns, cautioning the council that the property had already required significant city investment and that combining cleanup costs, acquisition costs, and an affordability objective would be extremely difficult to achieve simultaneously. He argued strongly that the site's existing B-1 commercial zoning, its long history as a commercial property, and its high traffic exposure on a corridor seeing approximately 25,000 vehicles per day made a commercial use the most financially and strategically sound path forward. He emphasized that the city has long recognized the need to diversify its tax base beyond residential uses, and that dismissing the commercial potential of this site would be inconsistent with that planning goal. Wassenberg noted the absence of affordable ownership housing in Falcon Heights as a legitimate gap, but agreed with Mogen that the financial assumptions required to achieve affordable housing on a contaminated site would need to be carefully examined. He agreed that the city should decide between the three broad use categories—park, housing, or commercial— before releasing an RFP, in order to attract serious proposals. Prososki advised the council that if they wished to include housing as an option in an RFP, they would need to be transparent with prospective developers about the willingness to pursue rezoning from the current B-1 designation, as housing is not currently a permitted use. She also cautioned that an overly open-ended RFP could introduce uncertainty that discourages developer investment in preparing proposals. She recommended the council decide whether the city intends to retain the property for a public use or dispose of it through the RFP process before moving forward, as these represent distinct paths. The council reached consensus that additional discussion was needed before proceeding to community engagement or an RFP. Linehan proposed scheduling a follow-up workshop to allow the council to continue narrowing down the preferred use and to obtain broad economic scenarios for each option—park, housing, and commercial—to inform that deliberation. Council members agreed. Mielke indicated she was not prepared to take the park option off the table, while the broader discussion reflected a desire to understand the relative financial and community implications of each path before committing to a direction. The Mayor thanked Prososki for her presentation and acknowledged TAB's continued involvement going forward. ## D. ADJOURNMENT: 7:01 P.M. DISCLAIMER: City Council Workshops are held monthly as an opportunity for Council Members to discuss policy topics in greater detail prior to a formal meeting where a public hearing may be held and/or action may be taken. Members of the public that would like to make a comment or ask questions about an item on the agenda for an upcoming workshop should send them to mail@falconheights.org prior to the meeting.

Approval of Resolution 26-68 Authorizing Change Order #1 to Contract with Electro ## Watchman, INC., for Lenel/S2N Netbox Access Cameras for Community Park Gustafson motioned to approve the consent agenda; Approved 5-0 Mielke proposed a question to Administrator Linehan regarding police overtime fees for Back to the ‘50s and how to seek reimbursement. Linehan responded that they spoke to Roseville, which also incurs overtime fees, and both cities are working together to seek reimbursement from the event organizers. ## H: POLICY ITEMS: 1. Approval of Resolution 26-68 Authorizing Change Order #1 to Contract with ## Electro Watchman, INC., for Lenel/S2N Netbox Access Cameras for Community ## Park Linehan provided background on the item, explaining that the City had previously contracted with Electro Watchman to install a door access control system for the new Community Park shelter building. As part of the original work, conduit was installed for up to two cameras. The change order would add the two cameras: one exterior multisensor camera on the northeast corner of the building to capture the parking lot, splash pad, and picnic area, and one interior dome camera in the kitchenette area to assist with rental monitoring and liability documentation. The combined cost for equipment and installation was approximately $4,560, to be funded from the Community Park renovation budget. Camera footage would be retained for 60 days on the City's existing Milestone system through Metro-INET, at an additional cost of approximately $100 per camera, per year. Council discussion was substantive. Mielke asked about the operational plan for monitoring, including cleaning protocols between rentals and staffing on weekends. Linehan explained that the exterior camera would support liability and security monitoring, while the kitchenette camera would allow staff to remotely verify rental cleanliness without physically driving to the park. He noted that the Parks Commission had discussed limiting rentals to once per day to reduce turnover burden on public works. A posted phone number would allow renters to flag cleaning concerns, and public works staff would respond to call-outs, as needed. Bathrooms would lock automatically at 10:00 P.M. via a motion-sensor timer, with any movement detected after 10:30 P.M. triggering a direct alert to dispatch. May and Mielke both questioned the necessity of the interior kitchenette camera, with May characterizing it as potentially treating renters with unwarranted suspicion and noting that the exterior camera would capture any unauthorized access while the building is locked. She suggested starting without the interior camera and adding it later if problems emerged. Mielke expressed a preference for a cleaning checklist approach. Wassenberg and Mogen both supported the camera as a cost-effective tool for protecting city investment, verifying that renters fulfilled their cleaning obligations, and providing documentation in the event of damage disputes. Mogen clarified that the piecemeal nature of the project was a result of construction scheduling pressures, not poor planning. He further clarified that this was the reason he removed it from the consent agenda, and not because he opposed the cameras or the cost. Council Member Wassenberg motioned to approve ## Resolution 26-68 Authorizing Change Order #1 to ## Contract with Electro Watchman, Inc., for Lenel/S2 ## Netbox Access Cameras for Community Park; Approved 3-2, with Mielke and May opposed. 2. Approval of Resolution 26-60 Authorizing Modifications to the Administrative Manual: Section III Guidelines During the Minnesota State Fair for Modifications to ## the State Fair Parking Permit Eligibility Linehan summarized the proposed changes, which formalized direction given at the July 8 workshop. The key modification expands the pass distribution area from residents "abutting" a Pay-by-Mobile street to all residents who "live in" a Pay-by-Mobile designated area, as defined by a newly included map. Residents in the expanded area— including Hoyt Avenue, portions of Larpenteur Avenue, and Snelling Avenue north of Crawford—will now be automatically mailed one physical static-cling pass per household. A second digital pass is available upon request, with up to two additional digital passes available through a variance application. Residents outside the mapped area may still apply for a variance. The traditional “State Fair Permit Parking Only” areas, which receive two physical passes per single-family household, remain unchanged. Wassenberg and May expressed support for the map-based approach as clearer than attempting to define eligibility by street description. Mogen noted for the public record that the parking program has been under active refinement for two years and that this year's changes are not final; further adjustments are expected in future years, including addressing issues of pass sharing, equity across neighborhoods, and the overlap between permit parking and pay-by-mobile areas. A drafting concern was raised regarding Section 7c, which listed handicapped authorized vehicles, government vehicles, and delivery vehicles in a single sentence that could be read to apply the 10-minute time limit to all three categories rather than only to delivery vehicles. The Council agreed to restructure the language. Mogen proposed formatting the exemptions as a bulleted list under a lead-in sentence, clearly separating the 10-minute limitation as applying only to delivery vehicles. The amendment was accepted by consensus. ## Council Member Mogen motioned to approve Resolution 26-69 as amended, with revised language under 7c, Authorizing Modifications to ## the Administrative Manual: Section III Guidelines ## During the Minnesota State Fair for Modifications ## to the State Fair Parking Permit Eligibility; Approved 5-0 3. Consideration of a Variance Request for Facility Use Linehan introduced the item, explaining that an Alcoholics Anonymous group, "Easy Does It," had applied to use the Council Chambers on Sunday mornings for a weekly 10:00 to 11:00 A.M. meeting with setup and breakdown from 9:30–11:30 A.M. Staff had denied the request because only one current member is a Falcon Heights resident, which does not satisfy the policy's minimum 25% Falcon Heights residency requirement for hobby and community groups. The applicant, Sharon Preves, exercised her right to appeal to the Council. Mielke reported that she had spoken with Preves and confirmed the group was willing to handle its own setup and teardown, and that the use was a two-hour Sunday morning slot. She also noted that when she raised the request with the Community Engagement Commission at its Monday meeting, members felt it aligned with the commission's core values of community-led activity, well-being, and inclusiveness. Mielke also suggested the group's availability could be promoted in the city newsletter to attract additional Falcon Heights participants. Mogen expressed support, stating that the policy language referencing "Falcon Heights neighborhood or community groups" should not be read so narrowly as to exclude a group of this nature. May agreed, adding that AA provides an essential community function and the group's open membership means it could serve Falcon Heights residents even without a formal 25% threshold being met at the time of application. Linehan confirmed the group would be charged the $100 annual fee given the frequency of their planned use, and that staff would add the group to the approved list and reconcile the fee structure in a future update to the fee schedule, which currently contains some outdated provisions. Council Member Mogen motioned to approve the variance request for facility use by the “Easy Does ## It” Alcoholics Anonymous Group; Approved 5-0 ## I: INFORMATION / ANNOUNCEMENTS: May reported that the Environment Commission's Lawn and Garden Tour was a success, noting increased attendance—approximately 25 to 30 visitors per garden compared to 6 to 10 the prior year—and that garden hosts have expressed interest in participating again. She noted that foot traffic at the Peace Garden was somewhat reduced due to the concurrent street rod show on the adjacent street. May also noted that the Environment Commission is continuing work on implementing the Climate Action Plan and coordinating through its CAC representative. Mielke encouraged residents to attend upcoming Northeast Youth and Family Services open houses and confirmed that the Community Engagement Commission held a workshop on Monday without a quorum and is nearing completion of its mission statement. Mogen announced that the Planning Commission would meet the following Tuesday to discuss CAC matters and to introduce the consultant planner covering during the absence of the regular planner. He also reminded those present and viewing the streaming of the current meeting that a special Council workshop would immediately follow the regular meeting adjournment. Mayor Gustafson reported that the Parks and Recreation Commission had met on July 9 to review park audits with the Public Works Director, discuss rental policies, and plan for signage and future park improvements. The Commission is working toward finalizing policies and identifying next steps for park enhancements. Linehan provided the following staff updates: • Pay-by-Mobile stickers were expected to arrive the following day, with letters going out shortly thereafter. • A State Fair resource guide would be mailed to all residents. • Construction of the Velair development at Fairway Commons has begun, with the Larpenteur entrance temporarily closed; staff is monitoring traffic impacts and coordinating with the builder and property owners. • Community Park construction continues on schedule, with playground equipment delivery expected August 17, installation taking approximately 30 days, and a poured-in-place surface requiring approximately 5 days to cure, projecting a public opening in late September to early October. • The August 12 City Council Workshop will be dedicated to the preliminary budget review, with a second quarter financial report to follow at the regular meeting. ## J: COMMUNITY FORUM: No members of the public came forward. The Community Forum was closed. Please limit comments to 3 minutes per person. Items brought before the Council will be referred for consideration. Council may ask questions for clarification, but no council action or discussion will be held on these items. ## K: ADJOURNMENT: 8:01 P.M.

Discussion and Recap of Joint City Council / Community Advisory Committee Special Workshop Meeting on the Les Bolstad Golf Course Preliminary Plans from ## Rachel Development Administrator Linehan introduced the item, noting that the joint workshop held the previous week with the Community Advisory Committee (CAC) was well-attended and gave the Council its first opportunity to view Rachel Development's preliminary plans submitted as part of their RFP to the University of Minnesota. Since that meeting, staff had published an update to the city website and newsletter, including the plans and relevant documents. Draft minutes from both the CAC's regular meeting and the joint workshop were included in the packet, with the caveat that they had not yet been formally reviewed. Linehan noted that the CAC's next meeting was scheduled for August 19, at which point the committee would focus on developing a community engagement plan. Staff was also continuing to meet with Rachel to work toward aligning timelines, and initial outreach to technical partners — including the school district, watershed districts, and county — was underway. The Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) was expected to begin meeting around October. Council members were invited to share their reactions to Rachel's preliminary presentation. Council Member Mogen opened discussion by suggesting that Council first acknowledge the positives of the plan, before focusing on the negatives. Council Member May opened by acknowledging that Rachel had made a genuine effort to respond to the city's visioning statement and that the plan was helpful in visualizing their thinking, particularly the breakdown of housing types across different areas of the site. She appreciated that Rachel characterized the submission as preliminary and not final. Her primary concerns were the insufficiency of real, usable green space; the need for much stronger attention to walkability and bikeability both within and outside the development; and what she described as a dismissive tone regarding tree preservation. She emphasized that the site's old-growth oak trees — some estimated at 200 years old — cannot be replaced within any realistic timeframe and must be treated with both respect and creativity. She also expressed concern about the absence of any affordable housing component in the plan, while acknowledging that external processes and funding mechanisms could potentially bring that in. Council Member Wassenberg noted appreciation for the density of the single-family homes — with narrow frontage lots well under 10,000 square feet — and the general connectivity framework, including the trail and sidewalk network. He identified opportunities for improvement, including better physical connection to Cleveland Avenue, a closer look at energy efficiency and forward-looking heating and cooling technologies (citing the upcoming geothermal development nearby as a model), and a lack of sufficient information about stormwater and drainage management. He echoed the importance of creative thinking on green space. Mayor Gustafson offered a generally positive initial read, noting the plan was a good starting point with many details still to be worked out. He acknowledged that questions around trees and water flow could not be fully answered until a natural resource inventory was completed. He recalled earlier planning exercises for this site dating back years and characterized the current proposal as fitting within a reasonable direction, while noting it would require significant refinement and time. Council Member Mielke (speaking as a council member) echoed the call for sustainability, specifically citing the geothermal approach being used in a nearby Heights development as something Rachel and Pulte should seriously evaluate. She also raised concerns about tree preservation, the absence of a dedicated park in the plan, the use of tree islands in parking lots (which she noted rarely succeed), and the pricing and design character of the proposed homes, expressing a preference for housing that would attract residents drawn to walkability and urban amenity rather than an exurban aesthetic. She stated interest in a market study to evaluate whether senior care facilities were realistically viable given current staffing challenges. Council Member Mogen expressed appreciation for the density approach and the general grid connectivity, but raised significant concerns about the concentration of land uses in large, segregated blocks — all apartments in one corner, all single-family in another — rather than a more integrated mix. He was particularly troubled by how Rachel had addressed the Met Council's 14-units-per-acre density requirement: by removing commercial uses rather than converting lower-density residential to higher density, which he felt signaled an uphill battle for achieving the diverse land use mix the city sought. He strongly advocated for more commercial and light industrial uses on the site, emphasizing Falcon Heights's longstanding need to diversify its tax base beyond residential. He challenged the framing of the proposal as a "good start" needing tweaks, arguing instead that the Council needed a mechanism to proactively put forward its own master plan vision — working with Rachel rather than simply reacting to their submission. He suggested this would likely require additional budget for Bolton & Menk to develop alternative concept plans for the Council to work from. The Council broadly agreed on the need for Bolton & Menk consultant Andrew Dresdner to attend a future workshop to discuss the alternative planning process and how the city could take a more proactive, proposal-driven role in shaping the final development plan. Administrator Linehan confirmed he would coordinate that meeting. Discussion also touched on the question of a potential connection to Cleveland Avenue, with council members noting the presence of University of Minnesota agricultural land as a complicating factor, and the need for the county's involvement in any curb cut decisions. Council Member May raised the question of whether Ehlers Financial could provide market and economic analysis to help evaluate the viability and fiscal impacts of different development scenarios. Linehan confirmed that Ehlers had been consulted on whether they could offer pro forma and tax impact modeling, and a follow-up meeting was planned. He noted, however, that assessing market viability for specific product types would likely require a separate third-party market study. Council Member Mogen clarified the distinction: Ehlers would help analyze costs and revenues associated with a given proposal, while the city also needed a way to independently propose and test viable alternative scenarios — something Bolton & Menk would need to support. The Council affirmed consensus that the CAC process should continue and be respected, while also establishing a parallel mechanism for the Council itself to develop and advance alternative planning concepts in coordination with staff and consultants. Council members expressed interest in a future joint session with the CAC once the alternative concept work had progressed. ## D. ADJOURNMENT: 8:47 P.M.

Additional request for approval to repay Ramsey County for 1 st half TIF 1-3 Falcon Heights Town Square (Senior Apartments) disbursement. ## Description The TIF 1-3 Multifamily Housing parcel requires a pay-as-you-go payment to the developer for $106,820.43 TIF 1-4 requires a pay-as-you-go payment to the developer for $21,415.47. On September 11, 2024, council approved Resolution 24-48 to amend the TIF Plan for TIF District No. 1-3 as the TIF 1-3 Senior Housing parcel was no longer subject to a qualifying pay-as-you-go contract. The timing did not allow this parcel to be decertified and removed from the 2025 Ramsey County tax rolls. We received funds for this TIF district parcel in our tax settlements in 2025. On October 8, 2025, council approved Resolution 25-95 that rescinded Resolution 24-48 and replaced it due to incorrect legal description in the original resolution. The resolution occurred after the TIF modification deadline so we received funds for the Senior Housing parcel, and that amount. $50,306.25, needs to be returned to Ramsey County. ## Budget Impact TIF Pay-As-You-Go payments are already included in the budget, and repayment to Ramsey County has no budget impact. ## Attachment(s) • TIF 1-3 Multifamily payment calculations from Ehlers. • TIF 1-4 Amber Union payment calculations from Ehlers. ## Action(s) ## Requested Motion to approve repayment of the pay-as-you-go TIF 1-3 Multifamily Housing payment to the developer in the amount of $106,820.43, repayment of the pay-as-you-go TIF 1-4 payment to the developer in the amount of $21,415.47, and repayment of TIF 1-3 Senior Housing to Ramsey County for disbursed amount of $50,306.25. ## Meeting Date August 12, 2026 ## Agenda Item ## Consent G3 ## Attachment ## TIF 1-3 Multifamily Payment & TIF 1-4 Payment ## Submitted By ## Alyssa Landberg, Finance Director 7/19/2026 ## City of Falcon Heights, MN ## TIF District 1-3 Summary District Value SummaryCity of Falcon Heights - Sherman Redevelopment ProjectCounty Number 229-0Frozen Tax Rate (623C) 98.398% ## Year 2026 ## Dist Code 3331 ## County Number: 182290 ## P2026 Tax Rate 133.221933 % ## Taxes Payable 2026 ## P2026 ## Final ## Increment ## Notes ## Parcels ## Taxable Market ## Tax Capacit y ## Market ## Tax Capacit y ## Captured TC ## Gross* ## Net ## MVHC ## Net Settled ## Use per Hal f 22.29.23.22.0145 8,761,600 109,520 552,000 6,900 102,620 100,976 100,612 - 100,612 ## Sr Apts 50,306 Removed from District 10/7/2025 for Pay 2027.

This led the City to explore how other municipalities regulate car alarms on public streets if an owner is unable to silence it in a timely manner. St. Paul, Minneapolis, Rochester and Duluth all have language in their code that relates to a car alarm being a parking violation. Using this language, the city drafted an amendment to Chapter 46 – Traffic and Vehicles, Sec 46-26 that would add an alarm sounding for more than two hours as a violation. SECTION I. Section 46-27 (b) of the City Code of Falcon Heights, Minnesota, is hereby amended to add a new subsection (10) to read as follows (Deletions are shown with a strikethrough. Additions are underlined): (10) No person shall permit a motor vehicle parked on any street, alley, public grounds, or private property within the city to emit noise from a security alarm, horn, or other noise-emitting device for a continuous or intermittent period exceeding two hours. The registered owner of the vehicle, or any person in control of the vehicle, is responsible for ensuring the prompt silencing of a sounding alarm or device. It is not a defense that the alarm or device activated inadvertently or due to mechanical malfunction. a. A vehicle emitting noise in violation of this subsection is declared a public nuisance. In addition to any citation issued, the city may, when necessary to protect public peace and welfare, authorize law enforcement or an authorized contractor to remove and impound the vehicle in accordance with section 46-26. At the July workshop, the time limit was reduced from 4 hours to 2 hours to reflect the balance of quickly mitigating an issue with the necessity of allowing a due process opportunity for the vehicle owner to attempt to silence the alarm before a tow is issued. ## Meeting Date August 12, 2026 ## Agenda Item ## H1 ## Attachment See below. ## Submitted By ## Jack Linehan, City Administrator ## Budget Impact N/A ## Attachment(s) - Ordinance 26-09 Amending Chapter 46 – Noise Issues from Traffic and ## Vehicles - Summary Ordinance 26-09 ## Action(s) ## Requested Staff requests that Council approve the amendments to City Code and approve Ordinance 26-09 and Summary Ordinance 26-09. ## ORDINANCE NO. 26-09 ## CITY OF FALCON HEIGHTS ## RAMSEY COUNTY, MINNESOTA ## AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 46 OF THE FALCON HEIGHTS CITY ## CODE CONCERNING NOISE ISSUES FROM TRAFFIC AND VEHICLES ## THE CITY COUNCIL OF FALCON HEIGHTS ORDAINS: SECTION I.

This ordinance shall be effective upon passage. APPROVED for publication by the City Council of the City of Falcon Heights, Minnesota this 12 th day of August, 2026. ## CITY OF FALCON HEIGHTS ## BY: ________________________________ ## Randall C. Gustafson, Mayor ## ATTEST: _____________________________________ ## Jack Linehan, City Administrator ## BLANK PAGE ## REQUEST FOR ACTION ## City of Falcon Heights, Minnesota __________________________ Item Ordinance 26-10 Amending Chapter 22 of City Code Concerning Unnecessary Noise ## Description ## Noise Ordinance At the July 1, 2020 workshop, City Council discussed a noise ordinance, but it never moved forward. In general, it appeared the idea of a Noise Control Ordinance was supported, but it was not top priority at the time. It was felt it should be discussed at a later date. Many communities have stipulations around noise control, including Falcon Heights. However, our noise ordinance details are somewhat thin compared to other cities and do not cover items that staff receive complaints about. The most noted section of City Code dealing with noise pertains to refuse haulers and their approved hours in residential areas. Other existing regulations on noise in City Code are around dogs barking and home occupations. Staff receive three or four complaints about noise each year, usually surrounding construction projects. When complaints are received, staff will reach out to the owner or contractor and request that they do their work during the refuse hauler hours (7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. on weekdays and 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. on weekends). While this request is usually honored, there is little enforcement if projects continue outside this window. In addition to construction hours, other communities regulate noise as it pertains to power tools, vehicles, loudspeakers and horns, and schools. The City has utilized the MPCA requirements as guidance for construction projects, but enforcing on these provisions is challenging. There is a section in the public nuisance area of City Code that specifies noise. When the City consulted with the City Attorney around this in 2020, it was felt that this section, Sec. 22-47 was too vague and nearly unenforceable and should be changed or deleted. Section 22-47 – Public place defined; nuisances (e) Unnecessary noise. No person, in any public or private place, shall make, or assist in making, by any manner or means, any loud, unpleasant or raucous ## Meeting Date August 12, 2026 ## Agenda Item ## H2 ## Attachment See below. ## Submitted By ## Jack Linehan, City Administrator noise disturbing to others, unless the same is reasonably necessary to the preservation of life, health, safety or property. The City Attorney at the time drafted an update to City Code to include stronger language pertaining to noise, which was then workshopped during the July 8, 2026 meeting, and the draft ordinance was then referred to our current City Attorney for a fresh review. They have recommended the following: SECTION I. Section 22-47(d) of the City Code of Falcon Heights, Minnesota, is hereby deleted in its entirety (Deletions are shown with a strikethrough. Additions are underlined): (e) Unnecessary noise. No person, in any public or private place shall make, or assist in making, by any manner or means, any loud, unpleasant or raucous noise disturbing to others, unless the same is reasonably necessary to the preservation of life, health, safety, or property. SECTION II. Chapter 22 of the City Code of Falcon Heights, Minnesota, is hereby amended to create a new Section 22-49 as follows (Deletions are shown with a strikethrough. Additions are underlined): Section 22-49 – Unnecessary noise (a) Prohibited noises. The following are declared to be nuisances affecting public health, safety, peace, or welfare: (1) Any distinctly and loudly audible noise that unreasonably annoys, disturbs, injures, or endangers the comfort, repose, health, peace, safety, or welfare of any person, or precludes their enjoyment of property, or affects their property’s value in such a manner as to be plainly audible at the boundary of the real property, building, structure, or residence from which the noise originates, or at a distance of 50 feet from the source of the noise. This general prohibition is not limited by any specific restrictions provided in this section. “Plainly audible” is defined as a sound that can be detected by a person using their unaided hearing faculties; (2) All noises, motor vehicle or otherwise, in violation of Minn. R. Ch. 7030, as it may be amended from time to time; (3) The use of any vehicle so out of repair or so loaded as to create loud and unnecessary grating, grinding, rattling, or other noise; (4) Any loud or excessive noise in the loading, unloading, or unpacking of any vehicle; and (5) The use or operation, or permitting the use or operation, of any radio receiving set, television set, musical instrument, music device, paging system, machine, or other device for producing or reproduction of sound in a distinctly and loudly audible manner so as to disturb the peace, quiet, and comfort of any person nearby. (b) Hourly restriction of certain operations. (1) Domestic power equipment. No person shall operate a power lawn mower, power hedge clipper, leaf blower, chain saw, mulcher, garden tiller, edger, drill, or other similar domestic power equipment except between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m. on any weekday or between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m. on any weekend or holiday. Snow removal equipment is exempt from this provision. (2) Refuse hauling. No person shall collect or remove garbage or refuse within 500 feet of any residential district, except between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. on any weekday or between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m. on any weekend or legal holiday. (3) Construction activities. No person shall engage in or permit construction activities involving the use of any kind of electric, diesel, or gas-powered machine or other power equipment, except between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m. on any weekday or between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m. on any weekend or holiday. (4) Radios, music devices, paging systems, and the like. The operation of any device referred to in subsection (a)(5) between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. in a manner so as to be plainly audible at the property line of the structure or building in which it is located, or at a distance of 50 feet if the source is located outside a structure or building shall be prima facie evidence of a violation of this section. (c) Noise impact statements. The Council may require any person applying for a change in zoning classification or a permit or license for any structure, operation, process, installation, alteration, or project that may be considered a potential noise source to submit a noise impact statement on a form prescribed by the Council. The Council shall evaluate each such statement and take its evaluation into account in approving or disapproving the license or permit applied for or the zoning changes requested. At the July workshop, Council recommended the change of hours to be 7AM- 9PM for weekdays, and 8AM-9PM be for weekends/holidays, with the exception of radios or music being allowed until 10PM to reflect the allowance of small gatherings and community expectations of full “quiet hours” beginning at 10PM. Additionally, our licensing requirements for refuse haulers already have hours for operations which extend to 10PM on weekdays, so the change was reflected in the language to mirror Chapter 14, Sec. 277 (6) to avoid conflicting requirements. ## Budget Impact N/A ## Attachment(s) ## - Ordinance 26-10 Amending Chapter 22 – Environment, Noise Ordinance ## - Summary Ordinance 26-10 Amending Chapter 22 – Environment, Noise ## Ordinance ## Action(s) ## Requested Staff requests that Council approve the amendments to City Code and approve Ordinance 26-10 and Summary Ordinance 26-10. ## ORDINANCE NO. 26-10 ## CITY OF FALCON HEIGHTS ## RAMSEY COUNTY, MINNESOTA ## AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 22 OF THE FALCON HEIGHTS CITY ## CODE CONCERNING UNNECESSARY NOISE ## THE CITY COUNCIL OF FALCON HEIGHTS ORDAINS: SECTION I.

Gustafson, Mayor ## ATTEST: _____________________________________ ## Jack Linehan, City Administrator ## BLANK PAGE ## REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION ## City of Falcon Heights, Minnesota __________________________ ## Item ## 2026 City Fee Schedule - Ordinance 26-11 ## Description The City Council reviews the fee schedule annually for any adjustments and last amended the fee schedule during the December 22, 2025 City Council meeting to establish 2026 fees for sanitary sewer, storm drainage, recycling, credit card convenience fees, and Community Garden plots. Included in this proposed fee schedule are clarifying the current convenience fees associated with credit/debit card transactions, establishing a license fee of $35 for Commercial Parking Lots to cover the staff time needed to administer the program, and changes to parking fine fees, including the addition of escalations for non- payments of administrative parking citations (underlines represent additions and strikethroughs represent deletions). Parking fine (Sec. 46 – 27 Parking; restrictions; uniform parking fine and Sec. 46-28 violations) September 16 th – August 14 th $50.00/violation August 15 th – September 15 th $100.00/violation Administrative Citations (Sec. 46-29 – Establishment of Parking Zones Using Electronic ## Payment Systems (e-meters) and Chapter 30, Article III violations) ## Item Fee Administrative Citation if paid within 14 days of being issued $35.00* Administrative Citation if paid within 15-59 days of being issued $85* Administrative Citation if not paid within 60 days of issuance, it will be turned over to collections Current amount, plus a 30% fine increase for collections costs *All administrative citations will also incur a 3.5% convenience fee from T2 systems, separate from any credit card transaction fees. The proposed fee schedule reflects the discussion from the June 22 nd workshop, where council directed a lower initial fee that escalates to reflect the costs the city would incur to run license plate lookups and send appropriate letters. ## Meeting Date August 12, 2026 ## Agenda Item ## H3 ## Attachment ## Fee Schedule, Ordinance, Summary ## Ordinance ## Submitted By ## Jack Linehan, City Administrator The proposed fee schedule also better clarifies the minimum convenience fees for credit card/debit card transactions since the City utilizes two payment processing companies. Currently, the City utilizes Payroc, which is integrated within iWorQ, the City’s permitting software. For any building, mechanical, plumbing, ROW, and dumpster/mobile storage unit permit fees created and paid within iWorQ, Payroc’s credit/debit card transaction fees are 3.50%, with a minimum fee of $2.00 per transaction, so the City mirrors that fee. The second payment processing system, AllPaid, is used for processing fees such as community garden plots, recreation fees, business licenses, parking passes, and any other payments that are completed outside of iWorQ. AllPaid’s credit/debit card transaction fees are 2.95%, with a minimum fee of $3.99 per transaction, so the City mirrors that fee. Unfortunately, Payroc is not able to create various “buckets” for payments to be made and applied to categories outside of iWorQ, so the City cannot utilize it for the processing payments associated with recreation programs, for example. Thus, the reason for having two separate convenience fees and the need to better define them in the Fee Schedule. ## Budget ## Impact ## N/A ## Attachment(s) ## • Proposed 2026 City Fee Schedule ## • Ordinance 26-11 Amending Fee Schedule ## • Summary Ordinance 26-11 Amending Fee Schedule ## Action(s) ## Requested Staff requests that Council approve the amendments to the fee schedule and approve Ordinance 26-11 and Summary Ordinance 26-11.

Gustafson, Mayor ## ATTEST: _____________________________________ ## Jack Linehan, City Administrator ## BLANK PAGE ## ITEM FOR DISCUSSION ## City of Falcon Heights, Minnesota __________________________ ## Item ## Approval of Resolution 26-71 Authorizing the Request for General Fund ## Budget Amendment – Administrative Expenditures (112) – 60520 Part-Time ## Employees ## Description The City of Falcon Heights has benefited from having an administrative intern in the past, both/either in summer and/or in fall, depending upon the current workload and specific project needs of the City. Prior interns have worked on grant research and applications, assisted residents at C ity Hall, worked with staff members across all departments, completed daily administrative tasks, and drafted resolutions, as well as proclamations and RCAs, for the City Council. We have found the intern position is a perfect win-win for the city and the interns, as they gain great work experience and we get additional, temporary staffing for our lean team to help cover lunch breaks and allow staff to take vacations or other leave without as much concern over coverage of phones and the front counter. For 2026, the City budgeted $5,000 for the intern position. The 2026 intern was originally planned for a January – May time frame to assist the city with the updates to the city website, but a vacancy in the Administrative & Communications position and the availability of the intern to stay on through July allowed us to extend the position for a total year-to-date expenditure of approximately $11,000. The savings from the staff vacancy offset the additional costs with the position. With a current and upcoming planned leave occurring with City Hall staff, the City has a strong need to have the position temporarily filled to maintain current levels of output. Staff is requesting authorization from Council to adjust the budget line for the part-time line from $5,000 to $20,000 for 2026, with the goal of allowing us to immediately post and hire an Administrative Intern for the Fall (September- December). This timing would allow us to advertise the position and have them in place for fall. This would be adequate funds to allow us to have the intern work up-to the hour maximum of 30 hours per week for the remaining four months of the year. ## Meeting Date August 12, 2026 ## Agenda Item ## Policy H4 ## Attachment ## Resolution ## Submitted By ## Jack Linehan, City Administrator ## Budget Impact The budget line for part-time employees would be adjusted to reflect an authorization of $20,000 for part-time employees. ## Attachment(s) Resolution 26-71 ## Action(s) ## Requested Staff recommends the City Council authorize the budget amendment, and further authorize City Administrator to advertise and fill the temporary position. ## CITY OF FALCON HEIGHTS ## COUNCIL RESOLUTION August 12, 2026 No. 26-71 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ## RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE REQUEST FOR GENERAL FUND BUDGET ## AMENDMENT – ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENDITURES (112) – 60520 PART-TIME ## EMPLOYEES AND APPROVAL TO FILL A TEMPORARY ADMINISTRATIVE ## INTERN POSITION WHEREAS, the City of Falcon Heights has historically benefited from the assistance of Administrative Interns, who have supported grant research and applications, assisted residents at City Hall, worked with staff across departments, completed daily administrative tasks, and drafted resolutions, proclamations, and Requests for Council Action; and WHEREAS, the intern position provides valuable work experience for students while offering the City important temporary staffing support for daily operations, including coverage for lunch breaks, vacations, and other leave; and WHEREAS, the City budgeted five thousand dollars ($5,000) in the 2026 budget for an Administrative Intern position; and WHEREAS, due to a vacancy in the Administrative & Communications position and the availability of the intern to continue working through July, total intern expenditures for 2026 to date have been approximately eleven thousand dollars ($11,000), offset by savings from the staff vacancy; and WHEREAS, staff recommends adjusting the 2026 budget line for Part-Time Employees (General Fund – Administrative Expenditures (112) – 60520) from five thousand dollars ($5,000) to twenty thousand dollars ($20,000) to permit the City to recruit and hire an Administrative Intern for the period of September through December 2026; and WHEREAS, the amended budget amount will provide sufficient resources to allow the intern to work up to thirty (30) hours per week for the remainder of the year.
