J. SCOTT RENNE ROBERT F. MILLER City Clerk Mayor JERRE A. MILLER City Attorney • DATE October 29, 1984 TO: Council FROM: William P. Craig, City Manager SUBJECT: Hot Tubs, Whirlpools, and similar small pools. Bob Mood and Firmus Opitz brought to my attention the fact that we are spending a certain amount of inspection time on commercial hot tubs and whirlpools, while receiving no license income from them. Apparently there is a certain amount of health concern about the commercial hot tubs, since they are used by a rapid succession of different people. They need to be automatically chlorinated, and should be periodically tested by city inspectors. Firmus estimates that 30 minutes per month per establishement should be sufficient. Private (non - commercial) hot tubs would continue to operate without regulation. Some jurisdictions (notably Hennepin County) regard hot tubs and whirlpools as swimming pools, and charge accordingly. Most others have a two -level charge, with the smaller fee being for pools that are really too small for swimming. For example, cities and fees charged for indoor pools are as follows: Large Pools Small Pools Edina $180 $30 Minnetonka 110 55 Bloomington 80 40 Minneapolis 100 50 Brooklyn Park 150 50 Brooklyn Center 135 75 Based on Firmus' calculations that 1/2 hour per month per establishment is necessary for enforcement, a reasonable fee would be $25.00 per year per commercial hot tub. If you agree that regulation of these facilities is necessary and desirable, the appropriate next step would be to authorize the drafting of an ordinance. I had hoped to delay this until Firmus recovered, but the calendar is moving right along. Respectfully submitted, William P. Craig City Manager MINUTES OF THE JOINT Z & P AND COUNCIL MEETING October 30, 1984 41 1 A joint meeting of the Hopkins City Council and the Zoning and Planning Commission was held at 5 p.m. in the CommunityRoom of the city hall on October 30, 1984. Present were Mayor Miller, Councilmembers: Lavin, Anderson, Shirley and Milbert. Zoning and Planning Commission members present were Eddy, Berg, and Kirscht.

Staff members present were City Manager, Craig; City Engineer, Strojan; Community Development Director, Kerrigan; N. Anderson, Drinkwine and Kaeding. The first item of discussion was the Request for Proposal on the Harriman property. Mr. Berg reported that the Economic Development Committee had met to discuss the Request for Proposal and were working with the draft prepared by Jim Kerrigan. They discussed streamlining the procedures for the developer perhaps having an ombudsman to assist developers in working through the various committees. The Committee also feels that they should proceed slowly and define their objectives carefully before putting out a RFP. In further discussion it was brought out that the HRA Board had recommended owner - occupied housing for this area, such as townhouses, condominiums, etc. Mr. McDonald stated that they did not wish to put out an RFP on the Harriman property until they knew the plans for the adjoining property, occupied by Suburban Chevrolet. SPECIALTY BLOCK - The concept has been completed and Lindberg- Pierce will be prepared to come before the Council within a month to present the plans of four different developers. CBD ACQUISITIONS - Mayor Miller reported that the HRA has purchased the DeMoss property, the Anderson Building which formerly housed the Sun Newspaper, the Owens Building, the 3 -story Olson building which houses Daniel's Studio, and an appraisal has been made of the Olson - Pfieffer building. Space in these buildings are being rented with a 60 -day drop clause in the contract. SUPERBLOCK - The final development plan is due on the 8th of November. CCDC AND MAIN STREET TASK FORCE RELATIONSHIP TO ZONING AND PLANNING COMMISSION AND THE COUNCIL: - It was decided that each committee should have formal minutes distributed to all Boards, Commissions and Committees.
