mean by that ia that they, as a Co�ission, prefer the format usedi3n�t�o revie� T1�e
prcllnauce� rsther than the Yormet used in the docwnent thRyi �B ��e section and
Teason they preferred the old format was that everything u.� � 3rive-
everything R-2 v8a in one section, etc.� wherees in the nev format, they p
.,re�ys, ete� together� snd the C�isaioners felt it would be too eaey to mig8 e�thing

in that sectian.
Mr, Oquiat suggested thet the chan8es and diecussions Prom all the co�nissions be
co�piled into one doc�ent to avoid duplicationa and to make it easier for the Plannin6
Cp�tission when they diacuss the recommended changes from the Commissions. If the

Mr. Peterson stated that since the Cu�ieaiona srere spending eo much time � the
changee� he z.^ould like to see their discusaiona and reca�eendatioae a�xi sug�eeted
a cut and paste proceas to consolidate the recoumiended changes, and did not xant
the wer-le�y ed2�arialized because he did not want to l4se srpr part oY it.
Mr. Oquist etated it vauld be too much for each Plsnning Caa�issiomer to have e
set af each Co�isaion's minutee in Yroat of them when diecussing the changea.
Ms. Schnabel agreed, but streased the importance of not having the minutes editorieliaed,
Mr. I,angenfeld stated that his Ca�ission did not go through the document page by
pege, but his Co�fission was concerned about the noise ox+dinance� the over-].Ry end
iaterim items, and ended up deciding not to reco�end approval of the nev ordinance
as ie, Without changes. �
Ms. Schnabel atated that there vere instances vhert the Appeels Cammiesioaers did not
feel that the new ordinance wa� in cc�pliance with existing ordinances� for instance�
the Mainteaance Code has different definitions than the Zoning Ordinance, sad the
Appeals Conwiseion felt those shou.2d be consisteut.
Mr. Harris etated that each chsirmsn aee to it that their minutes, after the cut and
pastfng process� vere un-edited uhen the Planning Commisaion discussed the proposed
changes, and he would talk to stsfY about having the minutea consolidated and har
they vould like to have it done.

3. RECEIVE TI� APPEALS CO2+AffSSION SPECIAL ME�TING MTN[tTES: NOVF�ER 1, 1978:
MOTION by Me. Sclznabel, seconded by Mr. Lnng�Yeld to receive the Nwember 1, 1978,
Appeals Ca�iasion S�ecia2 Meeting M3nutes.
Ma. Schnabel etated that regarding Item 1� on page 1, at the Oetober 2k, 1978 meeting
oY the Appeals Camiission, they discuseed the definitions oF "Famiily" and "Occupancy
Limit" a� there vas a motion by the Appeals Coffinission to bring to the Planning
Coa�ission a deYinition of "Fami2y" and "Occupaacy I.imit" for their conaideration and
that a legal opinion be given on both definiti0ns. Ms. Schnabel stated that the
Minneeots WelYare Department uses three difinitions of Fsmily and read them ae follows:
1) A group of people who bqy, prepsre and eat their foa] in co�on. (Food Stamp Program).
2) A child liv3ng srith an eligible relative related bloodlines, marria�e; includes
parents, cousins, aunts and unc2es, "great"-re2atives, etc. {AFDC}, 3) �tro or more
individuals related by bloodlines, marriage or adoptiaa, sharing a housing unit main-
tained by at least one of them.(Genersl Aseistance). Ms. Schnabel stated that those
are deYinitions of "Family" a� in the Zoning Ordinance they attempt to define "Family".
In terms of "Occupancy Limit", Hud's dePinition xsa "Tatal persone�bedroa��housing
unit� qnd is 2�bedroom. Ms. Schnabel stated the Appeals Co�ission decided that the
deYinition £or "Occupancy Limit° iu the Zoning Code should be "2 pereons per bedroom
per dvelling unit". The Appeals Ccam�ission Would like eome kind oY legal interpretation
of the defin3tiona.
PLANriI1� COPR�QSSION MEEpINC, NOVE6ffiER 22, 1978 p/�g 3
Mr. Peterec,n stated that accoxding to that definition, the fami.],y in a three bedroom
house vith a mother a� father snd iive childrea Would be in violatiars oY the ardinance.
�+ ti+ould they handle that situatioa?
Ma, SchnaDel etatcd that the problem arose thrpugh the tefinition oY "Oecupaacy Limit".
There are sam�e housea in Fridley vhich contain large numbers oP people xho are unre].ated
to each other aud at least one of these has caused a lot of problems for the City,
becauae oY the complaints about this house. Ae an attempt to get same kind of definition
that would give the City some legal baeia vith which to bendle this kind of problem,
the Appeals Ca�mmisaion wauted s definition oY "Occupancy 7.imit" vhi,ch, z,rou�,d give the
City legal recourse in this type of situatim.
Mr. Peteraon etated that he did not like the idea of "Occupancy Limit" because there
are sitvations vhere people have a three or fout bedro�n houae vith enough children
and the mother and fsther to put them ov¢r the legal limit� a� did not like to put
so�ething in the ordinaace that would cause s problem for them.
Ms. Schnabel stated that ahe understood that the situation vas that if there were ao
co�plaints about them, there vould be no prob3sm.
Mr. Oqvist stated that the sitvation could arise vhere a neighbor vrauldn�t like the
family and there you have a compleint� it could cause all kinds of problems with an
ordinance like thia.
Mr. Peterson stated that he thought Minneapolis had a non-related ordinance that has
been effective, because besically in that situatfon� you are running a boarding house.
A five bedroo� houae vith 10 unrelated people is basica2ly a board�ng hpuse,
Mr. Harris suggested tbst they ge; a copy oP Minnespolis�s ordiasnce and revie�r it.
Mr. Harris also stated that there wss q Nu�ssnce O�in�nae Whi.ch should cover a
situation like that, that the Zoning Ordinance should not be considered a cure-all.
Ms. Schnabel stated that the first inclination of tbe Appeals Commiaeion was to
throw-out the dif�mition oY "Family" and not even get into "Occupancy Limit"� but tbe
Maiatenance Code has a dePinition oP "Family"in it vhich reads: A group of not more
than 5 Peraons, who need not be related by blood, marriage or adoption living together
as a aingle housekeeping unit.°
Hr. Peterson stated tbat sinCe it was already in the Maiateaance Code, they ahould not
have to bave a deYinition in the Zoning Code.
Ms.Schnabel stated thst mqybe when the Planning Co�ission discuesed this, they would
decide to thrrna it out, which was the Appeals Coa�iseiona� first inclination� but as
they telked about it, they sreren't sure if there �rere other reasone the dafinitioa �ras
aeeded.
Mr. Aarris ataied that he had talked with the City Attorney, end tLe City Attorney
would receive cOpies of their diacussima regarding the proposed changea, and he
cou2d interject, during their deliberatioas, hie legal opinions regax�ding the changes.
1Ar. Harrie stated he vouid like to think about 1t and discuse it at s later time, unlees
they had a gpeciYic propossl.
Me. Sehnabel atated thet the proposal vas to have a legal opinian on the definitioae
_of "Femi�y" and "Occupancy Limit", end vould like to know if it rrould be enforceable.
Ms. Schnabel stated she vould get the hSinneepolis ordinance regarding Boai+dinghouses
and they could discuss it et the Planning Coo�iasion meeting.

MDTION by Me. Sehnabel, seconded by Mr Oquiat, to receive the Appeale Co�iseion I
_ M�nutes of November 1k; Iq`��---- � _° , _ _ __ _ _ _ _
Mr. Peterson etated that regarding Mr. Hnxce Nedegaard's request to build on a
40 Yoot lot� he felt that by granting it they wou2d be opening themselvea up to s
lot of other situations such as iP a person had a non-conYorming use on a piece oY
prceperty a� it burned down� he could CCme back and sqy that the preeedeat ras that
they sllowed it to be built beck to its original statua.
Ms. Schnabel stated thet ehe had questioned the same thing and also hed mentioned the
�de Psrk area. Ms. Schnabel ehowed the Co�iseioners a p3cture and an aerial photo
af the lot in queation. Ms. Schnabe2 explained that the house preaeat�y oa the lot
wsa uainhabitable and if the variance request was aot granted, the City votiid coa3emn
the house end it wouZd be remwed. Ms. Schnabel pointed out that the aerial photo
shovs several other 40 Yoot lots on the same atreet� so it Was Yelt that building �
this lot �,rould be compatible xith the neighborhood. Ma. Schnabel also pointed out that
the house immediate2y nort2� wsa a very nice haa�ee on a 40 £oot lot. Ms. Schnabel atated
that as they discussed the request, it became apparent that the neighbors were very much
in Yavor of Mr. Nedegaard tuilding on the �0 foot lot, and eince tbere were other homes
On 40 fart lots on the sa�ne street� it seemed reasonable to grant the request, ratner
than deny the request and let the City condes� the house� have it tarn dwn, xhich
would take s�ue time, a� then be left vith an empty 40 Yoot lot. Ms. Schnabel stated
that Clyde Morevetz had talked with Mr. Herrick, the City Attorney, e� Mr. Herrick
Pelt it c�au2d not jeopardize the law suit becsuse the laW suit was concerned with a
perswi `rhm had brought the lots tax °orPeit, thia lot wea a fu7.1 priced piece of pr�-
perty, there was the question oP a corner �+0 foot lot as opposed to an interior �0 foat
lot, and the neighbors in this case were very much 3n favor oY a nev dwelling on thia
40 foot lot. The aeighbors approached Mr. Pledegaard and asked him to do this. Nr.
Nedegaard lives dovn the street Yrom the lot in question. Becavse of these facts, the
Circumstances were quite different Prom the law suit case, and Mr. Herrick vould be
villing to �*s'ite out a legal,interpretation for the City Council.
Mr. Harrie stated thet he could see that this would be good for the neighborhood and
Coulfl understand �r the neighbors wented it, but vas conoerned about setting e pre-
cedent they vould be sorry foF later.
Mr. Peterson stated that he had aoted t2�at Pat Gabel expressed the seme c�cerns in
terms c�2f' her vote.
Ms. Schnabel stated she did too, in fact felt that all the Co�isxioaers did, but by
the same tokea� found it diYPicuZt to come up with reasons to deny it vith tlie neighbors
then requesting it. Ms. Schnabel noted thst Mr. Kemper had steted thet if this had
been a vacant lot� he probab�y never would hsve vated fc�r 3t, but because it did hsve
a house on it that vas current]y being used until just recent�y, he felt more comfartable
going slong rrith the request,
Mr. Aerria asked �hat tbe diPterence was betveen this lot and another lot that's vecaut�
other than thfs lat hae a houae c� it.

Ma. Schnabel etated that looking at it fra� aaother eagle, if this house vae far
sale end aomeba3y bought it and decided to improve it, the City could do nothing
ebout that. •
Mr. Harrie atated that that could be done, esseatiel�V building e house +ithin e
house� if the preaeat houae vss that bad. Mr. Harris atated that personal�y he felt
granting the variance would be a good thing� but was uneasy about the consequences, _
mayhe not xith the present court cese, but a year fram noW.
Me. Schnabel eteted that they may be faced rith theae same type of aituations in �yde
Park.
Mr. Harris atated that what they vere doirg then vas continuing the use of sub-standaz�d
lots� which they had decided not to do.
Ms. Schnabel atated that they had esid they would not permit new construction on vacant
aub-standard lots, but in �+de Park thay had eaid they would permit existing use of
sub-etandard lots to continue. Ms. Schnsbel also stated that Mr. Nedegsaid had in-
dicated that this 40 foot lot cpst over $12,000 and because of this she felt that be-
cauae coats are sky-rocketing sp much, they m�y have to allosr this kind of thing in
order to continue to provide housing.
tAr. Oquiat qnestioned whether they ehould be concerned about providing additionel
housing when Fridley vas 9Q�, developed.
Mr. &arris suggested they table this item for thr�: months� until Febraary� while
they study it, and get a judgemeat from the prese: court case and know where they
are going with the problem. Beceuse e�%erything i.. irozea arqtwqy� Atr. Nedega$rd xould
n�t be able to do anything srith it until Spriag.
Ms. Schnabel stated that on page 7� the 4th paragraph frca� the top should reHd:
°Mr. Couture asked that if Lhe garage on Lot 5 were moved south 10 Peet� it Would
sllo�r for a 50 Poot lot rather than a 40 o�ot lot� and vou3d`the City give a variance
for a 50 Yoot lot".
Ms. Schnabel stated thet on Page 7, the 5th paragraph frcmi the top, the wozYls "Yra�
Mr. Traczik" should be deleted.

Chairperson Oquist called the meeting to order at 7:40 p.m. Mx. Oquist
welcomed Ms. Gustafson to the Commission and introduced her to the other
Commission members.
APPROVAL OF QCTOBSR 11 1978 C�AfONITY DSVEL9PMENT CONINffSSION MINUTES:.
MOTION by A1 Gabel, seconded by Kenneth Vos, to approve the October 11, 1978,
Coa�unit-y Development Co�ission minutes as written. Upon a voice vote,
all voting aye, Chairperaon Oquist declared the motion carried unanimousl.y.
FINAL RECOt4hII?NDATIONS ON PROPOSED CHANGES TO CHAPTE& 205. ZONING:
Mc, Oquist stated he felt the best way to do this was to continue going
through the document page by page and making changes and/or recommendations
as they went along.
Hs. Modig commented that in reading the minutes of one of the Planning
Co�ission meetings, Mr. Boardman had stated that the commissioners did
not have to refer back and forth between the old Zoning Ordinance and
the Proposed Changes to the Zoning Ordinance as it was a11 included in
the latter document. Ms. Modig staCed that it was the Covanission's
experience from their last meeting that this was not always true.
The Commissioners concurred with the following recommended changes:
205.04 GENERAL PROVISIONS
205.041 Declaration of Policy
Page 10, �4. Mr. Vos stated Item 4 did not seem like a"declaration
of policy". Recommeadation t o delete �4.

205.046 Required Yard and Open Space
Page 14, �3-C. Mr. Oquist stated that according to this require-
ment, no one could build a deck larger than 10 feet, and steps
would have to be 2 feet from the driveway. It seemed like an
umreasonable depth. This item should be clarified,
205,047 Automobile Parking
Page 16, �k3, Is word "lited" in second line supposed to be "listed"Y
Page 16, �3-D, Apartment Hotel. "Apartment Hotel" was not defined

Page 16, #3-H. Five parking spaces for each alley in Bosaling Alley
seemed rather high compared to the amount of parking spaces allowed
for Church, Clubs (�3-I).
Page 17, �3-0 and �3-P. Mr. Vos cou�ented on the difference between
the parking apaces for a medical or dentaZ clinic and the parking
spaces allowed for a public building. He felt public bu3ldings
needed more space than a medical clinic. Reca�endation that
Offices, $anks, Municipal Bui2ding and/or Public Office Buildings (P)
have a more equitable amount of parking spaces, such as 150 sq, ft.
which was the same as the Medical or Dental Clinic (0).
Page 18, #4-I, J, K. Mr. Oquist stated that the "zoning administrator"
was referred to on this page. Mr. Oquist referred to page 24,
205.051 Zoning Administratar. He stated there was a definite need
for a table of contents or an index so things such as the Zoning
Administrator's description could be found in this document.

Page 20, #3-B-2 (Screening). Mr. Vos stated that people were being
told what kind and size of trees should he plattted. This atatement _
was too restrictive and should be re-examined.
Page 21, �3-B-3. Mr. Vos stated that this statement again seemed
too restrictive. If the statement meant that screening fences should
be maintained, thea the wording should be more clear.
Page 22, �4-C. Sentence was incomplete. Should read: "The City
Engineer may specify a minimum finished ground grade for aay

1. INTRODUCTION OF BILL DAVIS, STATE ENERGY AGENCY:
Mr. Davis stated he was the Metropolitan Energy Coordinator responsible
for working with comnunities in the seven-county area. He primarily
served as liaison between energy co�ittees such as this one and the
S[ate Energy Agency, providing the co�ittees with information and
" literature the Agency had available and also taking requests back to
the Qgeacy from the comnittees.
ENERGY PROJECT COMMITTEE MEETING, NOVEMBER 15 19�8 - PAGE 2
Mr. Davis stated he worked out oE the Local Services Division of the
Conservation Department of the Energy Agency, and they were responsible
for organizing local cou�unities at the local level to establish
cammittees in the awareness of energy to act in an advisory capacity
to the City Councils on energy-related activities and to provide education,
information, and literature to the residents at large.
2Ir. Davis stated that at the present time, there were three state mandates
oa the books which directly affected the cou�unity;
1. Building Energy Code--a requirement that all newly constructed
facilities comply with energy standards as of 1976
2. Auditing Mandate--a11 public buildings should be audited in
local governments. The first half to be done by 1979 and
the balance by 1980.
3. Lighting Efficiency Standard--local units of government were
asked to comply with this standard.
Mr. Dayis stated there were also so�me federal mandates which affected the
schools and hospitals which required them to perform energy audits.
Mr. Harris explained to Mr. Davis the charge of the Energy Project Co�ittee,
that the Planning Commission with direction from the City Council had set
up the Energy Project Coum�ittee to help the Planning Commission develop
an Energy Policy for the City of Fridley, some dizection towards possible
changes in the 2oning Code, and that type ot thing.
Hr. Davis stated that was probably the best route for the Committee to
proceed. He stated that the State Energy Agency was using the City o£
Pridley's Energy Project Couemittee's charge as an example for other
co�unities and had been sending it out as a recommendation for other
co�unities in setting up energy c�ittees. The Agency did stress that
each community develop a policy, some type of guideline or framework, by
which the cfty could begin to direct its efforts in the future. If they
could begin to do an inventory of where the energy users were and where the
energy supplies and demands were in the co�unity, then in the event of
an emergency, the city could act accordingly and appropriately. Minneapolis
snd St. Claud had completed their "Energy Policy Statements" and Moorhead
vas in the final draft of its energy policy statement.
Mr. Davis stated that he had brought aZong a 15-minute slide presentation,
uthich was their bi-annual report, an 18-year projection of the supply
and demand situation in the State of Minnesota. This data had been
cw�piled and submitted to the Legislators and the Governor for them to
go over. Mr. Davis thought it was a good overview of what the energy
situaLion was in the State of Minnesota. Many people still did not truly
believe thete was an energy crisis. Minaesota was at the end of the pipe-
line. Minnesota imported approximately 987, of all its fuel, so Minnesota
- was very, very vulnerable. Minnesota had severe wintezs and it was very
important that people get a handle on the eaergy situation and understand
it.
_, _ _.._ __ .�
BNSgGY PItQ7ECT COrII4ITTE6 MEETING NOVH�IDBR 15 1978 - PAGE 3
Mr. Davis atated this bi-annual report was made available to all the
citiea. At th3s time, there were no additional copies and it was being
reprinted. As soon as more copies were made available, they could get
them out to the conmuniCies.
tfr, ilall asked if the SCate knew the energy demand county by county? �
itr. Davis stated they did have a member on their staff who handled the
energy usage county by county, so they could find out the approximate
energy usage for Anoka County. They also monitored the gasoline and
petroleum supplies that came into the state. ,
llr. Saba asked if there was any way the cities could monitor their own
usage?
Mr. Davis stated that technical expertise was needed to do that. The
c3ties were being asked to monitor their individually owned buildings
through the audits. As far as private businesses were concerned, there
was ao way the State could intervene and require them to do things.
Fortunately, the private sector tended to be motivated by profit and
savings so they tended to self-regulate on their own. NSP and 3M had
made remarkable r.eductions in energy usage by housekeeping types of
chores to curtail consumption. When people looked at their utility bills,
they had to be trained not to focus on how much money they were saving,
but to see what their consumption was, one year versus another year.
Hr. Saba asked what kind of auditing was being done in state institutions
such as the t3niversity of Minnesota?
14r. Davis stated that these audits were in three phases. The first
phase was a walk-through audit observing energy usage in the building
and asking questions on a survey form. The second phase was a mini-audit
which was handled by a more professional, technically inclined individual
to carry out inspection of the boiler system and the interior/exterior
framework. The third phase was the maxi-audit contracted out with
ca�sultants to assess the overall energy consumption in the building.
What these three phases did was give the State Energy Agency an inventory
of tbe energy nsage in various buildings acxoss the state and this was
also included in the Presideat's Energy Package, of which they had just
teceived copias. It basically outlined the auditing aspect and [hat
[here would be some fuads available for performing these audits.
Mr. Davis stated that regarding the energy policy statements, they were
encouraging co�unities to start looking at the vehicle usage in city
government converting frw� full-size to mid-size. There was a savings
realized of between $450-700 per vehicle per year as a result. A
number of communities had gone to mid-size, including the State. They
also [alked to the co�unities about the large street vehicles--when
purchasing new ones, the city should consider deisel power as an
alternative. They talked about synchronizing the street lights for
smooth traffic flow, reconsideration of "stop on red" lights; also,
employee practices aud habits by turning off typewriters and lights.
Bt�RGY PR0.JECT CONAIITTEE MEETING NOVSMBER 15 19�8 PAGE 4
Mr. Harris asked how the State Energy Agency interacted with the State
Building and Energy Codea?
Mr. Davis stated the State Energy Agency wotked jointly with them in
terms of designing regulations, and they worked as cottsultants to local
municipalities answering specific questions relating to the energy code
or building code in general. As far as enforcement, the enforcement
mechaaism for the Building 6� Eaergy Code originally was to take place in
July 1, 1978. It was given a six-month extension to January 1, 1979,
for the remainder of the state. Enforcement of the building codes was
pretty much done in the local areas by a building inspector. The problem
was that the building inspector was not trained to be able to identify
energy requirements in building permits. Part of the reason for the '
extension was to give building inspectors the opportunity to receive
training. There was a lot of resistance in enforcing, and the State
Energy Agency had no enforcement mechanism.
l�fr. Harris asked how the State Energy Agency interacted with other state
agencies, such as MnDOT, as far as energy conservation2
Mr. Davis stated that the State Energy Agency interacted wi.th MnDOT,
the Department of Agriculture, and a number of other agencies, by woricing
in a very conciliatory and cooperative atmosphere, In the case of
MnDOT, the Agency was looking at their long term planning, procurement
practices, purchase of vehicles (full-size to mid-size), and mass transit
situation (trying to discourage personal vehicle usage and encourage mass
transit usage). They tried to point out the positive aspects and hoped
for the best. The Agency was still in an "agency" status and did not
have any authority or power.
Mr. Wharton stated that the fact that there was a State Energy Agency
promoted the use of that agency by the other state agencies.
Mr. Davis stated that beginning Friday, November 17, through Tuesday,
November 21, was the secaid annual Energy Saver Show at the Minneapolis
Auditorium.
Mr. Harris asked if the State Energy Agency took any positions with the
Public Service Co�ission as far as proposals made by the utility companies?
He felt some of these groposals were going to be counter-productive to
any energy conservation.
Mr. Davis stated that if they did, it was very little. The thing the
State Energy Agency was involved in was issuing certificates of need.
When a utility comgany came in aad requested, for example, an additianal
power plant, the company had to get a certificate of need. This gave
the Agency an opportunity to check its data with the utility company's data
to see if the demand was really there and if there were any other resources
available. Primarily, those types of things wen[ directly to the Public
Service Commission as the regulatory body.
BNERGY PROJECT CONAtITTEE MEETING NOVEI+�ER 15 1978 - PAGE 5
Mr. Harris asked if Mr. Davis thought it would be of value for the cities
or the League of Muaicipalities to Cake a atand on some of the utility
companiea' proposals?
Mr. Davis stated that they had a contract with both the League of Cities
and the Association of Counties to hire an energy specialist to work in
aa advisory capacity with municipalities, and that might be the vehicle
for these Yypes of concerns. If there was a problem or concern, it should
definitely be voiced by someone.
Mr.,Harris stated that he was talking about the charging of a minimum
rate plus being penalized for using alternative auargy sources as a back-
up in additioq to gas or electricity. He felt that was not good and was
counter-productive as far as energy conservation.
Hr. Davis stated that was an important issue and a concern of theirs, also.
Mr. Harris stated that the credibility of the energy suppliers had not
been good. A few years ago when the energy crunch came on, the oil
campanies said they needed to raise rates to build more pipeline, etc.
Then, all of a sudden Mobil Oil bought Montgomery Ward instead of buying
new pipelines and new facilities.
Mr. Davis stated that the utility companies had more or less said there
was not enough incentive for them to go out and explore new finds, so as
a result, they bought other companies and new franchises. Mr. Davis stated
what we were really talking about right now was an economic crisis. There
were an awful lot of areas that needed to be addressed. The first step
was in getting groups such as this togeCher, getting people educated, and
try to get some concrete inforc�ation to the public. In his traveling
around the state, people used to say to him, "Is thexe really an energy
crisis?" Now Yhey were saying, "What can we do about it?" It was a good
feeling to know that people were now taking positive steps in the right
direction.
Mr. McConville asked that when a local group noticed something happening,
primarily in terms of utilities doing what they could to crush conservation
techniques, was there some sort of natural pipeline to the state group,
who in turn could go to the proper agency?
Mr. Davis stated that this group and other groups like this were that
pipeline. The State Energy Agency's role was to keep the Energy Project
C�ittee notified of a�eeting dates, provide technical information and
expertise so the co�ittee was not misguided. The co�ittee's strategy
and approach on addressing issues was up to the coamittee.
Mr. Wall sta[ed that Fridley was located almost in the shadow of a power
plant. He asked about district heating and how far did district heating
extend2
ENERGY PROJECT COMMITTE$ MEETING NOVI;MBER 15 1978 PAGE 6
Mr. Davis stated that the most efficient usage of district heating would
trave! between 35-40 miles, so it was feasible for Fridley. District
heating was taking Che waste heat from power plants, heating up water,
and sending it through pipes to be used on the other end. About 27
co�unities throughout Minnesota already had district heating. Unfor-
tunately, a lot of co�unities had abandoned their projects and a number
of conanunities had discontinued using district heating. Problems were
that the technique used in the past was obsolete--rust and corrosion had
taken place in the pipes. But, now new piping was now available. The
Department of Energy was working very closely with the State of Minnesota
in developing some district heating concepts in the Twin Cities and
other communities so it may be something viable for Fridley. The Govern-
ment was making money available for it.
Mr. Wall stated that maybe the Camsittee should be touching base with
the Departm�nt of Energy and have them include Fridley in their survey
oY investigation. '
Mr. Davis stated he would get the Committee the information on the county
fuel consumption. He would also get the model policies from the communities
he had mentioned earlier. He stated that also what was done in some of
the other communities was to hire a CETA employee or an intern from a
local college or univexsity to do the inventory. The interns provided the
labor and it was no cost to the Co�ittee. St. Cloud and Moorhead had
done this. It was a source.for the Co�ittee to consider for help in
formulating their energy plan. Asfar as the commercial buildings in the
co�mmnnity, this was a matter of getting good information out by having
information readily available. The 5tate Energy Agency had pamphlets
and literature available to the coumiunities. They encouraged the cities
to have info�atioa available in City Hall.
Mr. Davis stated they had a contract with the Minnesota Retailer
Federation for them to hire an energy coordinator or consultant to work
with retailers around the state and to hold ZS workshops to teach, educate,
and give information to retailexs on how to reduce energy demands.
Mr. S�iall stated he thought it would be a good idea to form block
inaulating parties. Wou1d it make sense to have this as a conmeunity
project for organizations such as the Jaycees?
Mr. Aarris stated that regarding insulation, he thought the state had
a responsibility to its citizens. Ae thought it was time the federal
government and the state government got on [he stick and did something
about the insulation companies that had cornered the market, they played
games with it, withheld products, anythiag they could to drive the
price up, It was unfair marketing.
Mr. bavis stated he agreed. In the Agency, they had compiled an insulation
study of insulation products around the staCe and were looking at consumer
_ frauds and things of that sort. The problem the Agency had was they did
aot have the laboratory capabilities so they couldn't examine or analyze
products on [he market. The thing they were looking at was truth in
advertising.
�+NERGY PRQTECT COI�QfI1TEE MEETING 'N(��R 15 1978 PAGE 7
Mr, Saba suggested that the Agencp 1� into using atate institutions
such as the University of Minnesota �ich had excellent laboratories and
atudents always looking for projects.
l�tr. Saba suggested that maybe the citg could promote and have a status
symbol for an"energy efficient h�e°. It would help the owner sell the
home and would certainly be a plus ia bu�ing a home.
Mr. Harris stated that the city seem�d to have a watering syndrome. The
city spent a lot of energy pumping the vater from the wells, purifying
the water, and then the city sold it to hameocmers to be thrown on the
lawns. He thought the city itself vas going to have to do sane rethinking
oa what it promoted.
iir. Davis stated that maybe that s�xbject could be talked about when the
co�ittee talked about sesource conservati�.
Mr. Harris and the committee members ihanked Mr. Davis for coming to
tbe meeting and for his valuable infoastion.
2. INTRODUCTION QF JIM HEDR�N FRO�i SC�ODI. DISTRICT �k14:
Mr. Harris introduced Mr. Aedron to tdae Carmnittee members. Mr. Harris
stated Chat the reason the co�ittee �ad called on District �14 was to
see if the School District wanted ass� imput to the cammittee. The
ca�ittee had been Eormed to look into wys to save energy in the
community.
Mr. Hedron stated that the School District would like to participate in
Lhe cammittee whenever they could, as it could have some mutual benefits.
He stated that very likely he wwld b� t�e participant. Mr. Hedron
atated that they had c�pleted a couple o£ the audits, but were holding
back on the rest, because ot the possibility of federal funding.
3Sr, Harris asked if the Energy Project C�mittee could possibly look
at the interim audit when it was finished.
lir. Hedron stated the interim audit had been sent to the state and that
iufozmation was supposed to be put into a computer and compared to a
model school building. They had not gotten any report back.
MY. Harris stated that the reasa� he �ws asking was because he could see
a dizect correlation between the genuai coustruction of a school building
and a small or medium-sized manufacturing building. These people would
not be able to affotd to do an audit, aix! this would give Chem an idea
of where they were at and what they coarld do. Audits also might be
beneffcial fn the Zoning Code.
ENERGY PROJECT COMMLTTEE MEETING NOVEMBER 15 1978 PAGE 8
Mr. Wall stated that maybe they could make uae of CETA personnel to do
neighborhood surveys and get an assessment of energy consumption.
ifr. Harris etated that it was going to be hard to get manpower. He
stated he would find out the eligibility of getting CETA people.
?Sr. Harris expressed the coumdttee's appreciation to Mr. Hedron for
his input.
3. RECEIVE t�ffi�IO FROM EPIGINEERING DEPARTMENT RE INFRARED MAPS OF FRIDLEY;
MOTION by James Langenfeld, seconded by Dean Saba, to receive the
memo. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Chairperson Harris declared
� the motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Harris stated that, as the Committee could see, the infra-red over-
view of Fridley had not been done.
Mr. Saba suggested that the Energy Project Committee put a column in
the city newsletter, posslbly starting out by publfshing "energy facts".
Mr. Wall suggested that the Co�ittee set up a typical house with a
simp2e guideline on how much energy that home should be using to be
energy efficient. Homeowners could compare their homes to that example.
4. NEXT MEETING DATE AND AGENDA:
The next Energy Project Cammittee meeting was scheduled for Wednesday,
December 13, 1978, at 7:30 p.m.
The £ollowing agenda items were established for the December meeting:

UQon request from the City of Fridl�y, this proposal has been developed for the
overal) purpose of facilitatirx3 the City's objectives regarding downtown revitalization
in the area of University Avenue N.E. and Mississippi Street.

WORK PROGRAM/AP?RCaACH
1. Phase I: As indicated in the request for pruposal, Phase i is to culminate in a
repast which �rovides a carra�rehensive "orefi{e" of 'she subiectr zites or.d 4heir

As a finai parf of the P'r«se I vaarlc elemenS, we would propose fo gather sAcondary

. 1' "
Due to the major involvement af City sfaff in Phase i war'r, respensibi(ities, it is
envisioned thaT the wst majority of physical informational needs w311 be su�plied
to the consultant for eva(uation. We would propose further that where other
� directly re(ated informationa( items can be assembled by City stai{ vrithout signi-
ficantly increasing their proposed work load, this again incorporated as an
additional cost saving measure.
2. Phase 2: As currently envisioned, the various Phase 2 work tasks would be
accompiished unde� the same approach as would be normally utilized in develop-
ing a commercial area redevelopment plan, utilizing the tax increment {inancirr�
mechanism as the primary mefihad for plan implementation. This approach woule
generoliy oufiline alternative opportunities and avenues for implementaiion including
such supplementary toois as commercial/industrial revenue bonds, staYe ond federal
granfi/loan assistance, etc.
In preparing the commercial area developmenf/redeveiopment pfan, ii is
initially of critica! importance that all relevant issues be identified and
discussed with CiSy officiais. Fo!lowing the com�letion of Phase l and the
submission of a comprehensive profile summary for tiie �ubject area, rmny issues
will be uncovered 4hat will reqvire discussion and corriment to �nsure proper
direction in subsequenfi work phases.
The appiication of exisfin� Ciiy poi ic+e� nnd adoptien oi new redeveiopment
oriented policies should be unrsertak= the second step in Phase 2, &ased
upon the preliminary poiicy guidelir: ra6lished 6y the City, a generaf project
davelopm�nt cancept would �v prepar n cor,ju�ci icn wi'th Cit-y stor'f which
would encompass generai land use, trursoor4aPion and public fociliiies elements
as basic deveiopmenP parameiers ior ihe project.
Following City accepiance of fihs prefiminary deveiopmenP concepY plan, we
would pro�crse 4o undertake a fi��ancial feasibiiity� s4udy whicli wauid �ufly cost
,
put cevenue%xgense ia°�, ineiuding ec�uis��ion. si:A c�earanee ord preporation,
tax impacfs, a:sociaied recieveioorrr nt cosfs, r�ale apportunifi�:s, e�c. The
feasibility analysis would view cests in pro�wbie m�ges resulting from a;ternative
packaging ard devefopment approach�s. F.ntici}�ted public facilities ccsts would
be projected bas`d uoon City goiicy and site requirerr�nts.
It is anticipated fhaP con>iderable time wauld Ize sp�r.t in Ci�y/Consultant review
and discussion of the �asibiiify study results reiaiive Po its implicctions for
pursuing various deveiopment altarnatives and use of cerfain im.plementation
approaches.
It is further anticiga;ed tnat the comaietion of Phose 2�vould mark 4he selection
and establishment ot 4he reaevetopment concept and rr�Yhod(s) af imptemen4ation.

3. Phase 3: The develooment prospectus requesfed as Phase 3 of the overall proiect
would be develeped bated upon the deveioomenY concept and approach methods
selected at the completion oi Phase 2. It is envisioned that tfiis work product
be a short description of the c:.ity's pians ror the subject sites and availaole methods
for City/developer participation in plan implementation. As suggested in the
Request for Proposal, this short project description (prospectus) would be integrated
into a complete promotionai package which can be used to facili4ate development
interest and provida an informatiorrcyl forum for City�deveioper project discussion
and negotiation.
4. Phase 4: Rhase d tasks mustr, by necessity, await definition until the resvlts of
Phase 3 efforts can be evaluated. However, it wou4d be anticipated, if the
project can be mode feasihle, �hat Ph�se 4 wc+uld tnvolve working sessions with
the City ond prospective Ceveiopers in reviewing and evaluating proposed
devefopment plans and generaliy providing technical assistance/administrai-ive
supervision thro�h Ehe initiation of 4ne iedevelopa+ent project.

The deadline compfetion times nc+fied in tne Request for Proposal are viewed as reasonable
for production time needs. lt should be nated, however, 4hat the time involved in
eoordinafiing and b(ending team wark cr"r"orPS with City staff, ensuring that local business-

PROGRAM OF WORR
(INTRODUCTIOH)
I, REY SERVIC�S TO BE PROVIDED
A, A aucceseful market analysis and a potential redevelopmeat program vill
require certain key services. Throughout thie study there must be a close
working relationship with the local buainesemen who are preaently aperating
within the atudy area, Profesaional Planning and Development will form this
workinR relationshin early in the atudy,
The working relationsiiip will concentrate on aevernl important aspecta,
Firat, P,P.&D. will form a task force comprised of lesders fram these
bueines�es, Second, P.P.d�. will sv9tenatically determine the local
� businesemen's attitude ond underetanding of a redevelopment program, Thia
etep wilt require a progzemmad approach offering optiona to and for
redevelopment, For example, apecific progrem formation will illuatrate the
possibilitiea of tocal businesses joining forces in their own r�devetopment
prop,r_am rehabiliCatin� and up�radin� their own businesses and structures,
4'"�: j,oining as a limiCea partre- with 3�energl pnrtr.er/developer. 2*_c.
` p,p,6D, will Qresent the �bove informatioa with specific �ttention
townrd defining c:se existf�sg v�lues, mar.kets, and site utitiz�tion under
the present land util.zation. P.P.&A. will work with this task force on en
on-going_basis, The program of work will necessitate e good basis of
information regerding Phase I of this study, A2though the Req�eat for
Propossl defiues Phase I ss primerily the responsibility of the City, P�P�&D_,,,
mill wori� close2v with �he Ciey to i.nsure consistentiv use�ule in:are�ation,
B, A second key feature 1a to form a close relat+onahip with ootential
developers, market researcn ffrme. �nd site desinn consultants, It ie
important to note here tha[ P.P.&D. has consistenCly presented to the City
the alternative merket analysie of havfng the private investcent busiaessea
determine CFee market, Bec&use tile City hes choseu thia course, P.P.6D.
f�ela it is impartant thut a certain Ievel of uaderst�adiag be shazed,
��
IIoth a eound mMrket analycis and � redevlopmeat �;lan should bs et�aed
over a determtned periad of tina, Tne staging of thia re�evelopmenG plon
will obviously cauae m�rket analy�ie infozmation to be aither outdated or
uae£u � depending on the criteris eatablished for collectin� it, P.P.F.•D. will
therefore early in the etudv determine a staving p?an ior redevelopm�nt and
ob{ectives for each Darcei of the zedevelopment pian, If sound objectives
are established and a ataging of development ie determined, me will be able
to adequately determine market analysis informatioa and Phase IV decfeioa-
meking segarding proposed redevetopment sctivitiae,
C. A third key feature fs Che interaction between priva[e development
oppottunitiea and City tisk of both finaacial resourccs and future laod
utilization, P.P.bI1. is concerned that city risk must be minimized and
will therefore look st redevelooment activities fro� the viev ooint of jaint
coo eration between not on! the Citv and orivate developer but betwee❑ the
Cit and Faderal and &[ste � encies, For example a cnrefully pragrammed
zedevelopmene plan can meet city objeetives while correspondingly meeting
� ..:
the goals of Federai actd State agencies, W� do ❑ot wieh .o suggeat that the
City objectives ahould be gzestly compramised ia order to achieve Chis
intergovern�enlal cooperetion, buC ratFr;r ta �e ecutely aware in preparing
a redevelopment plsn thct outside �overnmental sssistance may be avsilable.
Specificsitv, p�' � hag previouslv suF�ested to the City Chat a Department
of Housing and Urbaa Development ra r8m Section 202 Housinv Assistance Project
msy be avaitsble for one of the land parcels within the redevelopmenC area.
If this p7an carefully ex�slored said gossibility, H.U.D. snd E.D,R, �y be
convinced to worls clos�ly with the City on such activities as utility
improvements, off-�it� recreatfon improvemeoes, land ecquisition costa,
relocetion costs, or loao monies for other potential users,
p p&D caill csrry forwsrd all such conversntion�z nnolic�tions. and
othex communicatxons with these levels of government, This key fectar will
aot only miaimize city ri3k, but �iv� iirrpetus to the redevelopmenr effort,

However, methods for implamentation �use go ��ch brosder thnn ju3t T.I.F.
Initi�lly , P P&D. will explore with ehe local businesa interests auch

Mr. Oquiet stated it shoralA came fraa the busines�rn and land amere, not fram the
City, in order to inaure they vill bxck it aaee they ar� there.
Mr. Petereon stated he Pelt it xas net being developed at proeent because it obviouely
v�ould nat be econe�ical�y Yeasible uniees the City csee in and baile out the present
prcrperty ovners �rith tax dollar�, and vhat they are actus].ly doing was subsidiziag

AIr. Bpsxdmsn statsS they would meke that money up vith the amc�w�t of teses they vou].d
get out oY the property a!'t�r it was developed.
Mr. Iangenfeld statad that frem the meetiag the other aight Where this wss discussed,
he uc�derstood that if Phsse I shmred it was not econcaically feaeible� it would e�
tht whole thing, and also the peaple he had talksd to about this felt that the msjor
ehopping ceaters r�ere s�thering the businesses economieally in Fridley and becauae
of thAt thoy ec�uld en8 up with th3s type of stvdy aooner or later. Mr. Langeafeld
sCated he felt there wsa an eca�ic deterioration going on right now in the City of
Fridiey, and thQy vould have to act to revitilize tlu wkwle e�onoo�.
Mr. Harris etated they had tried private developmeat in the area and it didn't work.
It appears to him that they need lead�rship and the c�sultants would provi8s that.
Tbe idea behi.nd the consultsnts was to have them tell the City whst traet theyr ehovld
b� on. They reeao�ended at the meeting with Council, that they etage thie c�eultante
busi.a�as in fowr atages Which irould coinciSe with the coaeultanta' phases. After each
pLase� the City vculd receive a regort, eaa]yze it �nd then decide if they shn�1 80 ou
to ths n�et pLase. Mr. Harria etated thet one of the things that b�tkured him about the
propossla vae t}ut the languagt regar8ing prices *rne kind of loosa. If you added up the
tep end of all their ranges, it added up to $42,000. An�ther thing that botherod him
vras thnt the propoasle implied that in order to entice a private developar in hert� they
vou1Q hsve to give awa�y eamething. It vea no�t in there in xritiag, but wes implied.
Mr. Boardnan etated that he felt they meant that the City vould have to provide incentiv.�
ueing aome of the financial toole a*railable to them to encourags dev�l�+ment. If they
use taa dollare to eneourage develop�at, they vould get tax dollar� out of it.
Mr. Psterson atated he couldn't see what they w�uld put in to generato tax iollars, if
it waan�t ca�eraial.
bir. Bonreiman stated they could, for instance, put in a six etory building with offiees,
reeidente, and lcnrer ea�ercial.
Ah�. Petersa� statod that could be done by changing aoning.
Mr. Laageni�ld statafl thet they should contact eooe of the other citias tbat have gona
through this. In the eity of Faribault, for instancQ, he was avare that it didn`t trork
to have conaultants plan develOpment.
Mr. Boordmsn atated they vere preaent�y checking vith all tlu other citits theee can-
aultants have worksd for.
