agreement is not necessary, but if the decision is to not use a communal
enclosure, another amendment to the CUP would be necessary.
Mr. Tapper asked about exiting the area following use of the drive-through and
whether the directions to exit would only be a right -turn or if drivers can still go
left between the KFC and the Pancho Villa/Scooter's area. Mr. Grittman
confirmed that the users of the proposed drive-through would have the
opportunity to turn left and access 7t" Street to the west of KFC.

Ordinance. The zoning ordinance at the time was adopted by reference as a
separate file. This item proposed to bring the Zoning Ordinance into the same
formatting as the rest of the City Code. The recodification will include zoning
ordinance amendments previously adopted that had yet to be included in the full
Zoning Ordinance, but does not include any other proposed amendments not yet
adopted by the City. Future amendments to the Zoning Ordinance will be
uploaded to the American Legal version on an annual basis, same as how the City

ANALYSIS:
After the request for an electric vehicle charging facility by Tesla within the Cub Foods parking
lot, the City observed shortcomings in the current zoning ordinance related to Vehicle Fuel
Sales and the standards that apply to that use. Not surprisingly, the current language relates to
gasoline (and diesel fuel) sales as a stand-alone use, usually with a convenience store as a part
of the facility. The code does not distinguish between principal and accessory activities, which is
expected, since the dominant manner of development for many years has been the model we
see everywhere — both uses together on a single site.
The Tesla facility at the Cub Foods property avoided a direct confrontation with the ordinance
structure since that area is governed by a Conditional Use Permit PUD. As such, distinctions
between principal and accessory uses, or the installation of a fueling station that is not
necessarily related to the principal use of the property, were easier to address.
With the advent of new alternative fuels, particularly electric vehicles, but also hydrogen fuel
cells and other technologies, staff is recommending changes to the zoning ordinance to
proactively address the evolution of motor vehicles, as well as how and where they are fueled.
To be noted this are not just the change in fuel types, but also changes to where fueling occurs,
often on private property, or on commercial installations without the traditional retail building.
The proposed amendments are intended to address these changing conditions in land use. The
ordinance resets the definition of Vehicle Fuel Sales to include alternative fuels and simplifies
the language in the definition related to associated uses as the current language is outdated
and overly restrictive. The definition for Vehicle Fuel Sales continues to include petroleum-
based fuels, but also adds hydrogen and electric charging stations (and any other fuel used to
power motor vehicles) to the list.
The ordinance then categorizes such stations in the land use standards into three separate
categories:
2
Planning Commission Agenda — 02/07/2023
1. Commercial Vehicle Fuel Stations
Commercial businesses that provide any or all of these fueling facilities. These
businesses are Principal Uses of property.
2. Accessory Electric Charging Facilities — All Property
a. The ordinance allows as permitted accessory use any electric charging facility of no
more than two charging stations (a capacity to serve two vehicles) on any property
in the City, regardless of zoning, from Single Family Residential to Multi -Family
Residential to Commercial and Industrial properties.
b. The ordinance further expands the allowance as a permitted accessory use any
electric charging facility of up to six charging stations on Multi -Family, Commercial
and Industrial parcels, with specific regulations related to location and screening of
the related infrastructure.
3. Accessory Electric Charging Facilities — 7 or more stations
The ordinance permits Multi -Family, Commercial and Industrial properties to install 7 or
more accessory charging stations by Conditional Use Permit. It is anticipated that as the
adaptation to more electric vehicles continues, more properties will be seeking the
ability to add charging stations. Because of the significant infrastructure to
accommodate greater numbers, the CUP provisions support the expansion, but permit
the City the ability to ensure that these facilities do not raise issues of site design, land
use, or other concerns.
It should be noted that the ordinance is specifically structured to discourage the
commercialization of the accessory -use charging stations. The structure of the ordinance is
intended to accommodate electric vehicle charging for tenants and residents of the subject
properties, not create a de facto commercial use separate from the principal use of property.
As noted above, if a Commercial property intends to open charging up to the public, they would
need to seek a Conditional Use Permit under the revised ordinance as adopted.
Also of note is that the City could, through the same regulatory framework, also allow for public
charging stations on sites for which a principal Public Facility or Use has been established.
Finally, as staff reviewed the ordinances relating to principal and accessory uses, an additional
amendment was identified. An existing section of the Zoning Ordinance language provides that
principal uses not explicitly listed in the code are considered prohibited — a common approach
to zoning ordinance construction. However, the code also provides a lengthy exception for a
separate decision of the Community Development Department to consider an unlisted use to
be allowed. The more traditional method here would be to require an ordinance amendment,
rather than an administrative determination. The rationale for this is that an administrative
determination is not memorialized in the code for future users or staff and can lead to
Planning Commission Agenda — 02/07/2023
inconsistencies in application of the ordinance over time. The proposed amendment modifies
this section of the Zoning Ordinance to eliminate the exception clause.
STAFF RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends adoption of the proposed amendment. The current ordinance is silent on the
provision of alternative fuels and does not address the changing land use patterns related to EV
charging stations on private property. The proposed regulations would provide for the ability of
individuals, property owners, and commercial business operators to prepare for the changes in
vehicle fueling expected to occur over the next several years.

Central Mississippi River Planning Partnership
To follow is a recent update on CMRP activities from City Administrator.
In 2022 the partner jurisdictions met with representatives from MnDOT and Federal
Highway to discuss and select an efficient process for moving through the state and
federal approval processes for this scale of transportation improvements.
Based on the information from those agencies, the partnership plans to initiate
something called a Planning and Environmental Linkages Study (PEL) in 2023. Wright and
Sherburne counties will likely take the lead on the study with input from all the
jurisdictions that are part of CMRP. The PEL study will consider the benefits and impacts
of transportation improvements on the environment, communities, and economy in the
TH25 corridor between Highway 10 and 1-94.
The project will help the partnership evaluate the transportation improvement options
within the guidelines needed for approval. Currently, the partners are drafting the RFP to
select a consultant to work on this process. Once a consultant is selected and the project
officially kicks off, there will be stakeholder and public involvement throughout; the RFP
and project deliverables specifically call for a public engagement plan that includes
options like in-person and virtual open houses, pop-up events, website and social media
content, online surveys, etc.

Introduction
The City of Monticello Community Sign Guide provides design standards for community identity and wayfinding signage to
ensure consistency in graphic elements and materiality across most public sign types in the community. As existing public
facility signs are replaced or expanded across the community, this guide should be consulted to provide a cohesive, on -
brand signage system that reinforces the character of Monticello and enhances the urban experience .
The full community signage package provides design templates for sixteen different signs that aim to address the full range
of signage needs, locations, and target audiences (including both pedestrian and traffic) anticipated in the community,
although site-specific modifications to these templates should be considered for each installation.
These sixteen signs are organized into three `families' based on use and context: the Civic Gateways and Building Sign
Family, which mark vehicular entrances to the community and identify civic facilities at a distance; the Urban Wayfinding
Sign Family, which support street scape-level wayfinding for both vehicles and pedestrians, and the Parks and Recreation
Sign Family, which extends the community signage standards into the parks system while differentiating parks signage
through a modified color palette.
Graphic standards for the signs are based upon the current City of Monticello branding and style guide, including colors,
logos, and typography. These elements may need to be adjusted for future changes to city branding and identity. Sign
templates shall conform with: Minnesota Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA),
National Park & Recreation Association and City ordinance requirements.
Credits
This Community Sign Guide was developed by Bolton & Menk with collaboration and oversight from City of Monticello
administrators, department staff, and the Parks, Arts, and Recreation Committee.

Monticello 2022 Post Development Survey Summary
The 2022 Post Development Survey was completed on January 9, 2023. We received 8
responses out of a possible 28 land use applicants in 2022 (28.57%), with multiple attempts to
encourage response. The responses came from land developers, local business owners and
property owners and business representatives.
All responses indicated that staff provided applicants with adequate information about the
design standards and review process. It was also indicated by all completed surveys, that the City
provided assistance and good communication to keep projects moving forward to completion.
Survey responders were asked to provide feedback on multiple areas of the Land Use
process, with a response scale of "Excellent", "Satisfactory", and "Improvement Requested".
The majority responders provided feedback for all fields requested. A breakdown of this multi -
response question is included on the next page of this summary.
All responses indicated staff worked proactively with the applicant to overcome issues in
development or the land use process itself. 60% of respondents indicated the plan review and
construction process encouraged them to invest in future projects in Monticello. 40% responded
"No" to this question on the survey, with only one additional comment related those responses. It
was noted that there was too much paperwork and guidelines for the type of commercial building
the applicant had proposed. 80% of responders said they would recommend Monticello to other
builders/developers.
Three of the completed surveys offered suggestions to better improve the
planning/development/land use review process. One comment was related to the review process
and how there seemed to be unnecessary, costly and time-consuming review steps that had not
been required in prior similar land use processes in surrounding communities. The other noted
City staff's accommodation to development trends, and openness to new ideas.
The Development Services team met to discuss the survey results. To continue process
improvements efforts and help respond to some of the survey concerns, staff have evaluated
ideas and begun to implement planning process enhancements. In the pre -application and permit
phase, we have added informational items to the pre -design meeting (meetings between City
staff team and prospective applicants) to help inform applicants about the process timelines, code
requirements, online resources, and costs. Pre -design meeting notes will be provided to
applicants as a summary of need -to -know information. We have also initiated post -decision
meetings. This additional communication point offers applicants the chance to meet with the
staff team to move their project from the design and planning phase to construction.
The Post Development Survey provides valuable feedback and opportunity for continual
process improvement evaluation.

Summary Documentation of Regional Significance
CITY OF
Monticeflo
The City of Monticello is pursuing a new local option sales tax during the 2023 Legislative Session. Our
city leaders are committed to being responsible stewards of public funds, enhancing our strong economic
foundation as well as facilitating quality of life initiatives that benefit members of the public across Central
Minnesota.
To successfully accomplish these goals, we must seek new financial tools to help fund valuable projects.
Our location along the critical transportation corridors of Interstate 94 and Minnesota Trunk Highway
25 facilitated our growth into a robust regional center of commercial activity.
Implementing a local sales tax will leverage that commercial capacity into successful
recreational amenities of regional significance.
The City is requesting a % percent local option sales tax collected over 20 years.
Based on the Department of Revenue's estimate of revenue of $1.4 million annually
for the city, this is anticipated to result in $30,000,000 for equal distribution
between two of Monticello's top priority projects.
•
Bertram Chain of Lakes Regional Athletic Park ($15,000,000)
Bertram Chain of Lakes Regional Athletic Park is Monticello's long-term vision for centralized
recreation in our community. It adds field space for active play to the larger Bertram Chain of
Lakes Regional Park, augmenting the natural park amenities with green space for soccer, football,
and lacrosse. The ultimate vision for the athletic park includes baseball and softball fields of varying sizes,
regional recreation amenities such as tennis courts and ice rinks, concession and ceremony space, and
the necessary infrastructure to support all -season use of the park. Bringing the athletic park to life adds
economic vitality to our community and region as teams travel to compete and relax between games,
experiencing the excitement Monticello has to offer.

entity as a destination
for recreation. The project is anchored by three interconnected lakes that serve a stormwater
" purpose but are also enhanced to become centers for aquatic recreation. The lake feature will
be surrounded by pathways, art, entertainment, and gathering spaces. The Pointes Master Plan outlines
regional amenities, including a pavilion for all -season recreation on the lakes, spaces for events and
performances, a pathway trailhead, and nodes for play and discovery. With the lively public spaces at the
center, recreation will drive economic activity around the perimeter. The Pointes Small Area Plan guides
commercial and residential development in alignment with surrounding land uses, striving for vital density
as well as a strong mix of retail and professional services.
Securing a local sales tax to help fund these two projects will allow Monticello to remain fiscally responsible
as we develop. These projects authentically reflect the character and strengths of Monticello while serving
the greater region. The revenue generated would be a transformational sum, bringing these projects to life
for generations to come.
Sincerely,
Lloyd Hilgart, Mayor Rachel Leonard, City Administrator

The City of Monticello:
Planning for the Future
Projects funded through the local option sales tax would be of regional significance enhancing recreational
opportunities for the public throughout the region and state while simultaneously supporting a healthy
economy.
Everything the City of Monticello does is led by the Monticello 2040 Community Vision + Comprehensive
Plan, a detailed vision for the future of our community. It was developed with public input from our region
and provides strategies to achieve a clear vision of the future. There are three themes: community character,
community health, and community sustainability. These themes are woven throughtout the plan and are
reflected in the projects selected for Monticello's local option sales tax.
Our Vision
In 2040 the City of Monticello is an inclusive community focused around sustainable growth while maintaining
its small-town character. Monticello is a Mississippi River town known for its schools, parks, biking and walking
trails and vibrant downtown. Monticello is an evolving, friendly and safe community that respects the quality
of its environment, fosters a sense of belonging and connection, encourages a healthy and active lifestyle and
supports innovation to promote a prosperous economy.
I��
;Ov � Our r
Our values include: a network of parks, open space and trail connections that provide recreation
opportunities; a healthy community focused on physical and mental health and wellness of its residents; a
diversified and strong local economy competitive at regional, state and national levels.
Supporting a Growing Population
The projects funded through the local option sales tax will be a draw for a steadily
growing population in our region, providing accessible spaces for families to shop,
gather for a game, experience local art, and recreate together. Monticello's population
increased approximately 10 percent between 2010-2018 (Source: 2020 Monticello
Housing Needs & Market Demand Study/US Census American Community Survey).
The population of our region (Wright & Sherburne Counties) is growing at a pace of
four times the state average, with the region set to exceed 270,000 residents by 2050
(Source: Central Mississippi River Regional Planning Partnership, Framework 2030 Plan).
U—) Planning for Transition
As a host community to a major energy utility, the City of Monticello is committed to plans and projects that,
with phased development, will continue to build a sustainable and successful economy. These two projects
will support Monticello in its efforts to transition from reliance on an energy tax base while meeting a regional
recreation need in service to the public beyond our municipal borders.
City of Monticello 2023 Local Option Sales Tax
15� A Retail Destination
Monticello is one of Wright County's regional retail centers. Approximately 23%
of Wright County's total sales tax receipts are generated in Monticello (Source:
United States Census, 20171U of M Extension Center for Community Vitality Local
Option Sales Tax Analysis for Wright County). Monticello generated an estimated
$450,018,000 in total retail sales (including non -sales tax retail sales) in 2017 (Source:
United States Census, 2017).
A City in Motion
A city in motion is a city with retail potential.
4,781 persons commute into Monticello for
employment daily. That means approximately
83% of Monticello's employment is estimated
to commute into the community, representing
significant non-resident buying power (Source:
U.S. Census On the Map 2019).

Bertram Chain of Lakes
Regional Athletic Park
Project Summary
The Bertram Chain of Lakes Regional Park (BCOL) is the best of both worlds —
a place to be still and a place to find joy in movement. Bertram holds within
its borders four undisturbed lakes, acres of woods and wetland, and miles of
trails. It is a park to wander, explore, and find yourself in nature.
Just north of the woods and water, Bertram is also a destination for recreatio
with green fields ready for soccer, lacrosse and a future for additional activity
and play. Combined, these two pillars of Minnesota's outdoor heritage
— recreational and natural adventures - make Bertram Chain of Lakes an
unparalleled park resource for the region and the state.
Bertram was listed as a designated facility in Minnesota's Greater MN Region
Parks and Trails Commission Strategic Plan, which identifies parks and trails
with regional significance outside of the Twin Cities Metro area. Wright Coun
and the City of Monticello are co-owners of BCOL, committed to fostering the
use and enjoyment of the park.
For its part, the City is working toward building a truly one -of -a -kind
destination for sports recreation at the BCOL Regional Athletic Park, meeting
an unmet need for athletic fields for the community and the region.
Currently a limited number of athletic fields, not constructed to final play condition, have been built. Following
this construction, the park has experienced a tremendous increase in use for a variety of sports for all ages,
including:
• Field space for soccer, lacrosse, football, cross country and more
• Existing fields are fully booked 7 days a week, May through October
• Fields available for recreation beyond organized sports, including a local kite flying club
• 2021 site of the MN Youth Soccer Association State Tournament for U13 through U19 Blue Leagues
The local option sales tax will make the full build out of this regional athletic park a reality.
Regional Partnership Opportunities
Wright County is responsible for the passive recreation portion of the park as well as camp site rentals. The City
of Monticello is responsible for the active recreation infrastructure and maintenance of the athletic park.
The City is partnering with Monticello ISD 882 to host their nature -based education at Bertram. The YMCA
utilizes Bertram as the location for their Day Camp Manitou. Our long-term lease with The YMCA of the Greater
Twin Cities draws youth from all across the metro to this regional park.
We currently coordinate with several athletic associations serving Monticello and surrounding communities, and
expect more opportunities and connections to come with the expansion of the athletic park.

The Pointes at Cedar
Recreation Area
Project Summary
The Pointes at Cedar reimagines the development of a largely vacant 100 -acre
area in the center of the city. In 2021 the Monticello City Council adopted
a Small Area Plan guiding development in the area away from large-scale
commercial to a more market-driven mixed-use concept with a greater chance
of success and positive impact.
City leaders are striving to maximize our existing assets with the most
valuable use of vacant land and established infrastructure to create long-term
economic stability and diversification away from dependency on Xcel Energy's
Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant, which currently represents almost 50% of
Monticello's tax base.
The Pointes at Cedar Recreational Area builds on Monticello's existing identity
as a destination for recreation. The project is anchored by three interconnected
lakes that serve a stormwater purpose but are enhanced to become centers
for all -season recreation. The lake feature will be surrounded by pathways, art,
entertainment, and gathering spaces with a mix of active and passive amenities
to bring together all ages and abilities. The Pointes Master Plan outlines regional
features, including a pavilion for all -season recreation on the lakes, spaces for
events and performances, an extensive pathway system and trailhead, and
nodes for play and discovery. The recreational area's unique biomes featuring
native plants and materials will be a magnet for those seeking to immerse
themselves in Minnesota's landscapes.
With
With the lively public spaces at the center, recreation will drive economic activity around the perimeter.
The Small Area Plan guides commercial and residential development in alignment with surrounding land
uses, striving for vital density as well as a strong mix of retail and professional services. Together, the mix of
public and private investment and spaces will produce valuable synergy; bringing people together from all
over the region while simultaneously creating an economic market for professional, retail, and restaurant
establishments.
Regional Partnership Opportunities
Public investment in The Pointes at Cedar Recreation Area is intended to facilitate private development in the
greater area. These developments will become part of the identity of the project area.
Monticello envisions opportunities for civic groups and organizations to contribute to creating entertainment
nodes and other elements unique to Monticello.
In coordination with MontiArts, the City's arts initiative, we will have opportunities for professional and non-
professionals to contribute art to the area.

The Importance of
Recreation in Monticello
Parks, arts, and recreation are woven into the heart of Monticello's community. The City of Monticello has over
30 public spaces to recreate and over 30 pieces of public, community built/local art throughout our community
(Source: City of Monticello Art Walk).
The Monticello Community Center is an excellent example of our community's ability to attract participants from
around the region. The MCC serves members from around Wright and Sherburne Counties, brings school groups
from around Central MN, and hosts events and programs with a reach far beyond our immediate population.
In addition to parks, arts, and recreation being an integral part to acheiving the priorities established by the
Monticello 2040 Plan (community character, community health, and community sustainability) it is also immensly
beneficial to our local businesses.
Parks and Recreation is Business W R I G H
COUNTY
As a regional center in Wright County, Monticello is anticipated to be at the heart EMPLOYS 7Jof recreational spending. Wright County employs over 4,700 people in leisure and
OVER
hospitality jobs (Source: 2019 — Explore Minnesota). In addition to being an employment
opportunity, parks and recreation also generates revenue. Wright County generates 470
over $254,785,907 in gross leisure and hospitality receipts and $14,896,148 in state 9
sales tax (Source: United States Census, 20171U of M Extension Center for Community IN LEISURE & HOSPITAL
Vitality Local Option Sales Tax Analysis for Wright County).
2.4%
OF
Outdoor recreation accounted for 2.4% of Minnesota's GDP in 2021 (Source: Bureau
of Economic Analysis). Minnesota's local and regional parks generated $2,834,173,626
in Economic Activity in 2013, $1,064,812,177 in 2013 labor income and 22,411 local
and regional jobs in parks (Source: National Recreation & Park Association —2015 The
Economic Impact of Local Parks).
N'S Monticello has 131 hotel rooms and 32 restaurants that will benefit from recreation
activity and the regional draw of the Bertram Chain of Lakes Regional Athletic Park and
The Pointes at Cedar Recreation Area.
Monticello is part of District 4 in the Greater Minnesota Regional Parks and Trails Commission. This is the
smallest district geographically [in Minnesota], but the largest and fastest growing by population. Our proposed
projects align not only with the Monticello 2040 Community Vision, but with the Statewide Comprehensive
Outdoor Recreation Plan (SCORP) and the District 4 Vision Statement to, "anticipate and shape the needs of our
changing community by focusing efforts on developing an interconnected system of high-quality, unique, well -
located recreational facilities that highlight and preserve our natural resources for all generations;' (Source: Page
72, 2020 GMRPTC Strategic Plan).
