APPROVE PLANNING COMMISSiON MIN[TTES: OCTOBER 3 1979:
MOTION by Ms. Schnabel, seconded by tir. Treuenfels to approve the October 3, 1979
minutes of the Planning Commiasion as corrected:
Page 2, the second to last paragraph shoud read; "Ms. GaUel asked if the neighbor ..."
Ms. Schnabel was not psesent at the September 26th and October 3rd meetings, and quesCioned
the use of Special Use Permits taking care of variances in the Center City Project as noted
on page 3 of the October 3rd meeting. She felt this statement contradicted what the
Board was discussing at the previous meeting on pages 6 and 7, where they were concerned
about Special Use Permits being used instead of variances.
Mr. Boardman said Special Use Permits are set up now not to handle variances hecause one
requires a public hearing and one does not. He was looking at the Center City ProjecC
to be an overlay district and there would be special conditions for building in that
district. One of the special conditions would 6e that all building permits would require
a Special Use Permit. The permits would cover any variances from the code, i,e „ setbacks.
The project would be handled by development rather than the regular code requiring a 35
foot setback. The Special Use Permit process would have to follow the variance process,
Mr. Herrick has a copy of the overlay district and Planning Commission has not reviewed
it yet. They will be reviewing the overlay district and zoning code modification after
Mr. Herrick has looked at it.
Ms. Schnabel said she would like to have time to look over this and see if she thought
it was a good idea. ' •
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 24 1979 PAGE 2
Mr. Boardman said _definitely the Planning Commission would be going over the use of
Special Use Permits in the Center City Project.
UPON A VOICE VOTE� ALL VOTING liYE, CHAIRMAN IIARRIS DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED
UNANIMOUSLY.
1. CONTINUED• L�T SPLIT REQUEST, L.S, d�79-04. EDWARD T. BAULER: Split off the West-
erly 60 feet of Lot 14, A.S, ��22, except the Southerly 390 feet, also Lot 30,
Block Z, Irvington Addition, and adjoining vacated streets and alleys ia lrvington
Addition, to be sold as open space for an adjoining property, the same being
1420 Rice Creek Road N.E.
Mr. Boardman reminded the co�nission that at the last meeting they had continued this
request so Mr. Bauler could look into another lot split and possible lease agreement
with his neighbor.
Mr. Bauler came forward and said he would like to stick to his original request for a
lot split. He said he l:ad been told when he bxoug'�t it in, it would not be approved.
Mr. Boardman said he told Mr. Bauler when he brought in his reyuest he would recommend
denial nf the lot split.
Mr. Harris said the commission would make a recommendation to the City Council and he
c�uld ask the City Council for approval.
Mr. Bauler could see no point in that and felt his only alternative was to sell all his
land and move out of Fridley.
Mr. Bauler left the meeting at that point.
Mr. Harris said the commission had studied the entfre area carefully and had come up
with an alternative suggestion for Mr. Bauler. He chose to stick with his original
lot split request and that request does not meeting zoning requirements.
MOTION by Ms, Hughas, seconded by Mr. Treuenfels to recommend to City Council denial of
L.S. �k79-04, for the following reasoas:
1. Lot split does not meet zoning code requirements for minimum lot width.
(lot size would be 60 x 293.2 feet)
2. Any future lot split of this new lot would create 2. substandayrd 'l,o�s
(60 x 146.6 feet). This would only add to future problems in this area.
' 3. By allowing such a lot, the commission would be saying the lots are build-
able, which was not true.
Ms. Schnabel said she felt bad she wms not at the last 2 meetings when this request was
discussed. She had studied the minutes and felt the motion was proper. Approval of
the request would be creating a substandard lot and this would not be in the best interest
of the city.
Mr. Harris pointed out the commission had come up with a better plan by splitting off the
front secfion of his land on Rice Creek ftoad. That iaould still leave aIl the land around
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 24 1979 PAGE 3
the house and to Che rear. An access easement would Fxave been provided for Mr. Bauler.
This land would be moxe valuable to Mr. Bauler £or resale and that was his main reason
for the lot split request. '"'
Ms. Hughes also felt Mr. Bauler was not receptive to any new proposal as this was his
third time here and he had the same comments each time. She felt the commission had
really tried to work with him. She stated she felt sorry Chey wese not able to con-
vince him of the alternative solution. She understood why he might not want to use
their solution, because a house could be built close Co his. She wished they had been
able to explore the possibility of splitting the rear lot and leasing that land to his
neighbor. She stated that Mr. Boardman said the City would not have done that because
a zear lot split would have cxeated a diagonal line and they do not do lot splits with
a 1ot o£ description.
Mr. Boardman said they do not necessarily not do them but a split like that would have
to go through the plat process.
Ms. Modig asked if he could use an alternative lot split proposal at a later date if
he desired.
Mr. Harris said yes.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CilAIRMAN }IATtItIS DEi,LARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
Chairman Harris asked to have Mr. Bauler notified of the commission`s reco�endation.
He also asked that City Council get all the information and discussions on this request
as one package.
2, IAT SPLiT REsUEST L.S. �i79-07, WALLACE L. LARSON: Split off the Northerly 115.78
feet of Lot l, Block 1, Spring Valley Addition, the same being 1482 Mississippi
Street N.E., to create a new building site 8D' X125' (10,000 square feet).
Mr. Boardman said this lot split was in an area in the Comprehensive Plan called under-
utilized land. The 1ot had previously been sp1iC off on the southerly end to create a
130 x 125 foot lot. On the south end of that lot the city has a 25 foot rode right-
of-way. The lots in this area are ail quite deep and the city was looking at placing
a road along the southerly end and developing the area. He felt this lot split would
fit in with the area.
Mr. Harris questioned easements.
Mr, Boaxdman replied the necessary easements to service the back lots would be required.
Therewould be approximately a 5 foot easement around the lot.
Mr. Harris asked the petitioner for comments and if he understood the easement requirement.
Mr. Wally Larson, 1482 Mississippi Street, stated he had no additional comments and that
he understood ahout the easements.
Mr. Boardman noted the curb that runs down Mississippi Street along Mr. Larson's
property was 1.3 feet on his land. Some type of agreement regarding that should be
worked out.
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 24 1979 PAGE 4
Mr. Larson replied he was sure some type of agreement could be worked out between him
and the city.
MOTION by Ms. Hughes, seconded by Ms. Modig to recocmnend to the City Council approval
of L.S, ik79-07, with the following stipulation:
1. Work out the required easements needed for the lot.
Mr. Treuenfels questioned i£ the curb problem should be stipulated also.
Mr. Harris said the City Council could handle that after staff has gotten all the
information together.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRMAN liARRIS DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
Mr, garris inEormed Mr. Larson this goes before the City Counc3l DR Nnvember 5, 1979.
3. PUBLIC HEARING: REVIEW OF_THB MISSISSIPPI_RIVER pORRIDOR CRITICAL AREAS PLAN
MOTION by Ms. Schnabel, seconded by Mr. Hora to open the public hearing.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AY$; CHAIRMAN IIARRIS DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED iTNANIMOUSLY,
PUBLIC HEARING OPIIVED AT 8:02 P.M.
Pir. Boardman explained tliat the Critical Area Plan was part of the Comprehensive Plan
and had been pulled out to allow review by the various local and state boards. He said
the first 20 pages of the Cxitical Area Plan Were the same as in the Comprehensive Plan.
The policys and reco¢miendations have already been approved with the approval of the
Comprehensive P1an by the Planning Commission. From page 21 on there was a breakdown of
projects and implementations of the Critical Area P1an. The Critical Area regulations
are found in this segment also. Mr. Boardman state3 the plan was an overlay district,
i.n which changes will be included in the modifications__of the City_Code, Chapter 205. The
rjetXg Council has: reyiewed the olan verv infQrmally� A copy of thei`[ comments were made
avai.lat�le to each Commissipn member. Mz, Hoardman sai.d he did nQt aer.ee wittl a17, the
comments made,
Mr. Deblon said he had talked to the person who made the review, Carl Schenk, "Ir. Shenk
said the comments may seem harsh, but were not intended. Lack of time made for hurried
comments. �
Ms. Hughes questioned if these coimnents change the policy, do we approve them and then
send them back to Metro Couttcil or what happens to them.
Mr. Boardman replied we will review the plan and cocmnents, make changes where needed,
approve them and send them to the Metro Council for further reviewal. These comments,
changes, and regulations are not necessarily the ones the Minnesota EQC would make.
There was still some necessary negotiation needed on the document. The comments will
be looked at to see if we are covering them or not.
PAGE 21:
Ms. Schnabel said tre chart referred to as I'igure 3-10 should be labeled as such. This
was the Capital Improvements Program char.t on page 23.
" PLANNING COMMISSION MEETtNG OCTOB�It 24 1979 PAGE 5
She also questioned the Statement in the 3rd paragraph. "In addition to proposing
seven capital improvemenCs of their own ...". She wanted to know what those seven
were and where they are listed. She felt this should be clari�ied better.
Mr. Deblon said those seven improvements were also referring to Figure 3-10.
PAGE 22:
Mr. Harris asked for clarification of paragraph 1.
Mr. Boardman said if our water area was to be used as some sort of commercial activity,
by Coon Bapids for example, we should have regulations to cover that activity and know
what conflicting activity it may involve.
Mr. Deblon added if there was to be a nse of the river for perhaps recreational use,then
what are the conflicting usesY i.e, canoe vs. motorized use.
Ms. Hughes said the Park Committee would like to see the river used for some sort of
recreational purpose and would like to have this regulation for conflicting uses in
the plan.
Ms. Schnabel asked about water quality in connection with surrounding communities, uses,
agencies, etc.
Mr. Boardman said our Comprehensive Plan does cover water quality and use very strongly.
There was also comsnents on this in the Critical Areas P1an regulations.
Ms. Schnabel asked if a city upstrear.i was polluting the water, what course of action
does Fridley have to correct it.
Mr. Boardman said our only real option was the Metro Council. When they are reviewing
other communities plan the water quality area should be carefully reviewed. Also our
watershed districts allow us closer, but limited control.
PAGE 23:
Ms. Hughes questioned the chart regarding stated improvements, i.e. Riverview Heights
Park. How do residents find out about such improvements. That information should be
included.
Mr. Boardman said that information will have to be put in. The chart now was to give an
idea of improvements. He pointed out that the costs and time table portions of the chart
wexe blank because the pazk area of the Comprehensive Plan was not completed yet.
Ms. Aughes also questioned the funding sources. Are these funds definite from those
agencies or are we going to apply to them.
Mr. Boardman said this was were we would apply for funding. If funding was not avail-
able through LAWCON or LChfR and the city would have to fund, more time would be needed
to complete each project.
Ms. Hughes said the plan does not state clearly what type of park plan there was.
Mr. Boardman said that should be included also..
PLANNINGG COMMISSION NIEETING OCTOBER 24 1979 PAGE 6
Irene Maertens, 144 River Edge Way, asked if the city really knew where the park
improvements would be needed. , ,,,
Mr. Boardman said ehe chart shows where improvements would most likely be needed.
Ms. Hughes pointed out to the Planning Commission that the Park Commission had not
reviewed or developed anything on the FMC River Front property acquisition. She
wanted to know where this plan was coming from and where the funding was coming from.
Mr. Boardman said the FMC property was to be a regional park in conjunction with Islands
of Peace. This package was put together by Anoka County. The funds will come from the
Metro Council and the Great River Road project. The Cour.ty has submitted to Fridley
a PDR (Project Development Report) on this facility.
Ms. Hughes wanted to know when the Park Committee got to see this report.
Mr. Deblon said the proposal goes to the federal government first, then comes back for
a public hearing.
Mr. Boardman said Anoka County gave present�ion of this plan directly to the City Council.
The Council did approve the master plan.
Ms. MaeYtens questioned if Anoka Countyt��ught just the FMC property or FMC plus the
Islands of Peace project to Council, and how they got involved in it.
Mr. Boardman said the County can designate an area for park property without the
consent of the city. He said they (Metro Council) were looking at Islands of Peace
to be a regional park and in order to do that you need at least 100 acres of land.
This would also include Durnam Island.
Ms. Maertens asked what type of development would be planned for this area.
Mr. Boardman said it would be a passive, picnic area with walkways,
Ms. Maertens said she had tried to get information on this development from the Park
Director, and he said he was unaware of any.
Mr. Boardman was not sure if the Park Director had a copy of the PDR. He had gotten
his copy only two days ago.
Ms, Hughes said the public hearing time was too late. The deveTopment has already
been decided.
Mr. Deblon stated the City Council still would have to approve purchasing of the land
and what would be developed on it. There still was time for public input.
Ms. Schnabel said it seems the Metro Council has already decided this area fits into
their park plan and if it was not consistent with a city's plan, that was too bad.
Ms. Maertens questioned if the City would sell Islands of Peace.
>
Mr. Deblon said he did not know for sure.
� PLANNZNG COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 24 1979 PAGE 7
Mr. Boardman explained Lhe PDR was only an application for FMC property acquisition.
The Islands of Peace as a regional park application was separate to the Metro Council.
The Metro Council was very interested in the FMC property because it was the longest
stretch of open space in the Twin Cities. The FMC property al.so includes funding by
the Federal Higlaaay Administration and the Great River Road Project. FMC and Islands
of Peace are tied together in this application because pTeviously Islands of Peace
had tried to get xegional park status. However, additional acreage was needed and so
FMC was included. If the Islands of Peace was not included as a regional facility,
it would not necessarily stop the acquisition of the FN� property. The Federal High-
way was looking at FMC as a recreational park facility along the Grear River Road and
an access to the river.
Irene Maertens asked if the figure, 1.8 million,.was a correct..iigure for the FMC
acquisition. •
Mr. Boar�nan said that was for the acquisition only. The federal government has
guaranteed that much money. The city has no control what-so-ever on the acquisition of
the FMC River Front property. We get control when the Council approves the plan.
Ms, Schnabel asked how come it came before the Council for approval then.
The County brought the PDR before Council to see what, if any, problems they had on it.
Mr. Hora questioned who would own the land.
Mx. Boardman stated the County would. The park would be a regional facility and the
County would develope, manage, and maintain it.
Mr. Hora thought the Park CommitCee should have been allowed some input on this plan.
Ms, Schnabel said she had heard Calk that the F'MC property might be used as a residen-
tial area.
Mr, Boardman stated they had talked with both FMC and the highway department on that
proposal. The highwa.y departmenC �aould not purchase any land if it had zny development
on it. The City could not purchase the 52 acres and neither could the Housing Authority.
FMC wants to sell, but are very picky as to what they will sell it for. The City tried
taking out 2 parcels of land to be developed, with the federal government picking up the
rest. FMC would not go along wiCh that idea. The City txied only developing 1 parcel
with a motel and again FMC would not agree. They said if the highway department was'to
get involved, it was all or nothing. Both the County and Metro Council agxeed it should
be a park development.
Ms'. Hughes said the Park Committee would agree with that.
Ms. Maertens asked if FMC was willing to sell with the park idea in mind.
Mr. Boardman said that was what came before the City Council. If they do not sell,
the City could condemn the land and designate it park property.
Ms. Maertens asked if the city could do'that to all'the land along the river.
�
Mr. Boardman said yes, but it would be politically unwise to do so. AL1 cities have
that power.
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 24 1979 PAGE 8
Ms. Hughes said she thought Mr. Boardman had said before FMC wanted to sell, and now
he statea they don't.
Mr. Boardman replied they were willing to sell at their price. They want $50-60,000
an acre. Right naw they are paying ta�ces on this vacant.land as undeveloped R-1. He
explained the land would be assessed at a certain price (l.e. $20,000/acre), FMC would
ciaim it was worth $60,000/acre and would try to claim so by taking the city to court.
A judge would then determine the cost per acre. That was the reasoning behind conde�ing
the land.
Ms. Hughes stated she was go3ng to try to get the Park Committee to review this proposal
before it was fully developed, but felt it might not be possible because of time.
Ms. Modig said so many times when something was to be reviewed by a committee, they are
fighting a time element. This proposed park plan was a good example. They are suppose�
to have citizen input on these questions and so often, staff says because of time, it
must be done immediately. She felt staff has already; many times, made a reco�nenda-
tion or decision on a request before the committees get to review them.
Mr. Boardman agreed that the time element was a problem, but sometimes things ha�e to
be done within a certain period.
Ms. Maertens said she also felt there was lack of communication between the different
departments and local governments. �dhen she came into City Aall and asked the Park
Director for information, he told her to go to 'the County. The information was available
through the Planning Department, only no one knew it. She also felt there should have
been time fcr citizen input on the FMC park question because it was known since last
April that Islands of Peace would be a regional park.
Mr, Boardman said he had talked to the Plaaning Comraission about the FMC property, but
did not have all the different concepts available until recently. He said this re-
quest moved very fast. After Anoka County presented their plan, he and the City Manager
went to the County to push for one of the development plans. They were told no, if
the City didn't go along, funding would be withdrawn. The funds had to be allocated
by November to keep the funding available. If the funding was not allocated by then
the federal government would withdraw those funds for the State of MinnesoCa and give
theoi to another state. The City had 4 days to make a decision.
Mr. Treuenfels said it was important to note that a citizen was interested enough to
come tonight and the information or where to get the information should have been
available for her to look at, but it wasn't.
PAGE 24:
Mr. Harris questioned the item regarding Entrance Development to the City.
Mr. Boardman explained this would be some sort of landscaping or perhaps a sculpture to
let motorists know they axe entering Fridley. It would be something to xepresent the
City.
Ms. Schnabel asked for review of that plan by the Planning Commission.

Mr. Boardman said this refers to gravel or sand mining.
PAGE 29:
Ms. Schnabel felt C should be reworded, because many of the factors of this regulation
would be known or on records by the City or the proper government agency. It did not
seem right to ask a developer to spend money to find out these factors, when they are
already known. The extra costs involved could possibly discourage a developer. C to read:
F�cisting topography as indicated on a contour map having a contour interval no
greater than 2 feet per contour; the topography map shall also clearly delineate

I4r. Harris asked Mr. Boardman if there were any variances for some of the requirements.
He was referring to the possibility of a present structure being 50% or more destroyed.
What requirements are allowed for reconstruction.
Mr. Boardman replied variances would be allowed. They would be handled under the
present zoning code.
Ms. Hughes questioned the need for variances in the Critical Area Plan.
Mr. Boardman said, if for example, a row ot homes burned down and the street was 100
feet or less from the river, variances coould be needed for setbacks. Otherwise a whole
row of homes could not be rebuilt.
Ms. Hughes pointed out that she thought that was the intent of the Critical Area Plan.
Mr. Boardman stated that coas not necessarily true. He felt the intent of the plan was
to maintain a natural setting along the river. Houses are not objectionable to look at.
Ms. Schnabel pointed out one of the objectives, as listed by the Metro Council, was for
planned unit development. Another objective was dedication of road frontage for public
use. These two objectives could or could not be compatible.
Mr. Boardman did not thin� it was the intent, and should not be the intent of the plan,
to remove all housing from the area. We already have streets along the river and if
houses were not allowed, what was the purpose of having the streets.
PAGE 32:
Mr. Treuenfels felt item D should be clarified.regarding what type of view could not
be walled off.
Mr. Boardman said this paragraph was referring to scenic or recreational views.
Item D,_l�st sentence, should read:
The walling off of scenic views of the river corridor from other properties
and public right-of-ways shail be prohibited.
PAGE 33:
Mr. Harris felt item 3, section B, could cause some pxoblems. It states only natural
material could be used for bank preservation. Some of those materials would be un-
suitable for stopping erosion. Section C states nothing should be allowed, that was
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 24 1979 PAGE 11
not natural, to keep the erosion control material in place.
Mr, Boardman said it was stated that way in order Co help preserve the view of the bank
from the river. � -
Ms, Schnabel pointed out you cannot see through rocks or wood, so why not allow some
type of stabilization of that material by tiebacks or similar material.
Mr. Boardman said the erosion control was for run-off and not flooding from the river.
Therefore a terraced, retaining wall out of natural material would keep a more natural
look to the river banks.
Mr. Harris felt some erosion control systems were definetly eye sores, but if what was
allowed doesn'C work, what good was the control.
Ms, Schnabel said this was basically a personal opinidn. Beauty was in the eye of the
beholder. One person may consider a railroad tie retaining wall attractive and another
person would consider it ugly.
Mr. Boardman said one of the intents of the plan was to keep the natural character of
the river. Retaining wa11s should therefore be out of natural material.
Mr, Harris questioned the safety of these retaining walls. A proper tieback could help
eliminate that possibility.
Ms. Hughes said she would prefer to see the plan keep these requirements.
Ms, Modig asked if present retaining walls of cement, chickenwire, etc. had to be
replaced with ehe natural materials.
Mr, Boardman said no.
Mr, Harris asked to have section A included as written, section B to read:
Construction shall be of material approved by the zoning administrator.
Sections C and D deleted.
Mr. Boardman said they would rewrite item 3 to incLude the changes.
Mr. Treuenfels questioned Che woxding of section D. It should read:
The minimum space between retaining walls shall be twenty feet.
Mr. Schnabel pointed out under item 4, "Vegetation Management',', only cutting of trees
was referred to. What about some type of regulation on sma11 plants and shrubs.
Mr. Harris asked if the selective cutting of trees greater than 4" in diameter was just
for the area along the river.
Mr. Boardman said it was for the whole Critical Area Plan. The plan has been set up
by the federal government Co include all the land from the river to the hi�hway system
and therefore the redulations apply to ehe entire area.
ELAAINING COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 24 1979 PAGE 12
Mr. Harris said he could go along with aelective cutting up to 350 feet.from the river,
but not 2-x/2 blocks away.
Mr. Boardman said sections A and B of Item 4 should be combined with the word however.
This would then keep the requirement where new development was beirig done along the
river.
Ms, Schnabel asked how the �ity could enforce section C which ss:ates a tree 4" in
diameter if removed must be xeplaced. For example; an addition to a home meeting all
requirements and needing no variances was built, how does the city make sure a tree
was replanted.
Mr. Boardman said the building permit would give the city the needed control.
Mr. Harris said he had some problems expecting a11 homeowners in the Critical Area
to replant. Especially if Chey are 2,000 feet from the river.
Ms. Modig said perhaps there would not be room for a new tree on a lot that was already
developed.
Ms, Schnabel said this could also infringe on the solar zights of a neighboY: Too much
tree coverage would not allow for enough sun light in certain areas.
Mr. Harris questioned the right of the city to place such retrictions on some homeowners
and not others. -
Ms. Schnabel said perhpas this should Ue a requirement for a11 of the city and not just
a certain area.
Mr. Boardman'pointed out this area was a special area and had special conditions for it
to exist. Any development in this area affects the Critical Area Plan and any affect
on the Critical Area: affects the entire river.
M�. Schnahel asked about the xemoval o£ the sentence reading "expansion of existing
structures". This would then just pertain to new developments.
Mr. Boardman said he felt that it was just as important to regulate on existing lands
as well as on new developments. Why only regulate a certain amount of the land use and
not all. �
Ms. Schnabel said for 3 reasons:
1. The regulation was picking on only a portion of the city.
2. There may not be enough room for a new tree on a lot.
3. Possible infringement on a neighUor's solar rights.
She said if only new developments were included in the resulation this would allow
the city control for replanting in those areas. Ms. Schnabel was thinking of the
possibility of some land opening up in the Critical Areas for housing development.
Mr. Boardman said thi� regulaCion already does that, plus also regulates existing
structures. He said that would be picking on only ne•w developments and the same 3
PLANf1ING COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBIIi 24 1979 PAGE 13
reasons could apply to them also. He could not really see why a developer or exiating
structure would have a hardship replacing one or two trees.
Mr. Harris felt the regulation was ridiculous and they would get laughed out of town.
He could see the regulation for along the river, but not 2 blocks away. He also felt .
it was rather two-sided to expect homeowners to improve and keep the natural 9.00k of
the area when on the other side qf their homes, the'city was widening East River Road
to almost the e�ctent of a freeway.
MOTION by Ms. Schnabel, seconded by Ms. Modig to delete Che words "or the expansion of
existing structures" from the first sentence in C under Vegetation Management.
Mr. Deblon pointed out that on the comment sheet from Metro Council a standard for
txee replacement was needed. This was what this regulation was doing.

Item 1, section C, add the word permit after special use.
Item 2, section Al, correct spelling of word construction.
PAGE 35:
Mr. Harris questioned the last paragraph referring to chemical control. He felt
there should be no chemicals used, because of the closeness of the river.
Mx, Hora said if the chemicals are used properly, there should be no problem. Arbitrarily
banning chemicals �aould be unwise. Such control for tree disease, poisin ivy, etc.
would be required.
PAGE 35• No Change .
Ms, Schnabel asked about si.gn conCrol in the Critical Area Plan, particularly along
the River Road.
Mr, Board said that will be handled in the sign ordinance. The signs along the River
Road are on the south side of I-694 and in a dif£erent district. There was also con-
trol on tederal lands.

Chairman Harris called a recess at 10:35 P.M. and reconvened at 10:45 P.M.
4. RECENE PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION MINUTES: SEPTF�ER 19 1979:
MOTION by Ms. Hughes, seconded by Ms. Modig to receive the Park and Recreation Com-
mission minutes of September 19, 1979.
Mr. Harris asked what was the purpose of the "Director`s Philosophy" under New Business.
Ms. Hughes replied because there were 3 new co�nission members on her commission, the
views, feelin� or goals of the City's park staff were not known.,.�g commission was
devoting an hour of each of the next few meetings to hear certai�t"'�hmbers philosophy.
These philosophys do not necessarily represent the commission's ideas.

5. RECEIVE COMMT7NITY DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION MINUTES: OCTOBIIt 9 1979:
MOTION by Ms, Modig, seconded by Ms. Hughes to receive the Co�unity Development
Commission minutes of October 9, 1979.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CBAIRMAN IfARItIS DECLAR�D THE MOTION CARRIED
UNANIMOUSLY.
Ms, Modig pointed out the motion on page regarding the consideration of the status
of unused alleys in Fridley. She asked to have the Planning Couunission concur with
this motion so it could be implemented as soon as possible.
After reviewing the conditions of the motion it was decided condition 1 was the same as
2 and should be dropped. Also on condition 2, property owner was not defined correctly.
The worcLs "adjacent to" should be added after the word owner.
Ms, Hughes said she got the impression from the minutes that the alleys would be vacated
if not used and the city would probably initiate that action. However, there was a re-
luctance to leave alleys unimpxoved, although used. She could not see how the city could
xsk homeowners to improve a used alley if they were satisfied using it unimproved.
Mr. Harris pointed out they do not plow unimproved alleys.
Ms. Hughes said it was basically a philosophical question of hers. Why should the city
be initiating such improvements if the homeowners are satisfied now.
Mr. Deblon said these alleys are eyesore;and the improvements would helpFreserve t-he
neighborhood. It also would eliminate rue problems in the alleys and garbage pick-up
problems,
Mr. Boardman stated if the alley was thGre, it would be used like a road and therefore
should be improved like a road.
Ms. Modig said the idea behind the motion was Co get the unimproved alleys improved.
- PLANNING COMMISSIQN MEGTLNG OCTOBER 24 1979 PAGE 15
The alleys would then be an asset Co the City.
Mr. Hora questioned what happes if only one homeowner was using the alley for access
to his garage and the other homeowners wanted to vacate the a11ey. Could access ease-
ments be required so the homeowner would not be cut off from his garage.
Ms. Modig said that was why they wanted all adjacent property owners contacted.
Mr. Soardman pointed out if 1 or 2 homeowners �ere using an unimproved alley, would
t hey he the only ones charged for the improvement or would all the adjacent property
owners be charged.
Mr. Hora said he ran into that problem on his alley.
Ms. Hughes asked how the city could get any agreement between homeowners who use the
alley and those who don't. She questioned the ciCy initiating such action. She agreed
with improvement foY petitioned alleys or vacation requests.
Mr. Boardman said he felt the city would not initiate improvements on alleys used by
some and not a11. That would be a dynomite situaeion.
Mr. Modig said the purpose of the motion was to find out what should be done with each
alley.
MOTION by Ms. Modig, seconded by Ms. Schnabel to concur with the Gommunity Development
Coimnission motion regarding unused alley in Fridley, as corrected:
To recommend that Staff come up with a plan for the alleys "being used but
unimproved". Each a11ey should be reviewed individually as follows:
1, Contact property owner adjacent to the alley tor feasibility of
improvement of alley or vacation of alley.
2, Make a detailed analysis of each a11ey with specific recommendations
for each alley.
3. Implement some process for some feedback from the Public Works Department
and the Public Service departments on each specific a11ey.
"Designated but not being used alleys" should be vacated by the City. "Paved
alleys" should continued to be maintained.

6. RECENE APPEALS COMMISSION MINUTES: OCTOB�R 9. 1979:
MOTION by Ms. Schnabel, seconded by Mr. Treuenfels to receive the Appeals Commission
minutes of October 9, 1979.
Mr. Harris asked if there had been any discussion regarding the clarification of "Stated
Hardship" on the variance application.
Ms, Schnabel said they did discuss it and staff said they are reluctant to make a
decision as to what the haz'dship was. If l'he applicant does not state it directly,
they did.not want to put words in their mouths. However, the Appeals Commission did
suggest the staff review the application when accepting Cheir money. Ms. Schnabel said
if there was or was not a valid hardship it wi11 come out at the Appeals meeting.

MOTION by Ms. Hughes, seconded by Ms. Modig to receive the Housing and Redevelopment
Authority minutes of October 11, 1979.
Mr. Harris asked Mr. Boardman if the package for the Center City Project was together
yet.
Mr. Boardman said it was completed and he will 6e meeting with 7 or 8 developers this
week. They hope for proposals by January 15, 1980, that would give them 90 days to
review them and make a selection. He also pointed out the resolution on page 5 re-
garding the purchasing of property for the Large Family Housing Program.

9. OTHER BUSINESS:
MOTION by Mr. Hora, seconded by Ms. Schnabel to receive the article on Special Use
Permits.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRMAN ItARiZIS DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED
UNANIMOUSLY.
This article had been presented by Mr. Langenfeld at an earlier meeting.
Ms. Aarris said he was approached by the owner of Central Auto Parts with a gxoposal
to purchase the Chies Qroperty by the junk yard. Re intends to enclose it with a
fence and use it to park trucks there.
Mr. Boardman said he had talked earlier with Central Auto and said they are presently
using the Chies building to take repairable cars, drop motors in them from other junk
cars and then sell them. Mr. Boardman said there are a lot of junk cars setting up
there now and he hates to see an expansion of this type. They would also need a
Special Use Permit for this type of expansion. The city has 2 new construction sites
being developed in the area that wiil greatly improve it and the expansion of the junk
yard would only create a larger, messy operation. He would try any legal controls he
has to stop the expansion. ,
Mr, liarris said he was not told of the vchicle repair business, but only of the storage
facilities.
� PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 24 1979 PAGE 17
Mr. Harris asked if there was any way to keep this expansion out.
Mr. Boardman stated yes. Central Auto was using the vehicla repair and storage area
as an expansion of the junk yard. In order to do so, that requires a Special Use
Permit. The city would deny the permit. There are other developers willing to buy
the same Chies property that would be more visually compatible.
Ms. Hughes questioned if we can stop the junk yard.
Mr. Boardman said not the junk yard, but we can stop the e�cpansion request.
Mr. Harris pointed out there was no definite proposal, but he had been c�ntacted by
this pexson.

I. DIRE�70R'S REPORT:
A. Report - North R�c,B�ilding Proqress
�tr, t3oudreau stated ihat �er;felt they wer2 at a stage in which staff haa reviewed
�-., .
"� ";�;plans; and revised the plans, several times. At :the next meeting wi.th the
-`°�aFChfk�ets, they would'give an idea of the cost per square foot for the buildin_g.
i4r.;BottclrPau stated this was basically the plan the Cortmission had reviewed
�at :ihe-�pen mee�ing with the City Counci1 and Springbrook Nature Center Foundation,
�'�e,end produci would have the basic fic�or plan with a few modifications.
�4s.'Seeger stated that the last time they were before xhe Commission, it had sounded
l�k� ,they we�e having some difficulty in h8�ing the architects understand what
v wa� desi.red. She asked if this was still true:
Mr. St. Clair stated they;.may be a 19ttle premature in dealing with some of
the sma77er things they �ni cha�ged. These things could be dealt better with
in the future once they qet`past hurdles of cost and structure design. He said
they had changed the design a little bit, but basicatly all that has changed was
the exit that was to come>off the ampitheatre above the lavatories has been
removed. This area wi1T now connect with the 19ve animaT room and serve as an
additional storage area. :Mr. St. Clair then drew a plan fpr the Cot�ni'ssion
�how4ng the chan9es that. Htei�e mdde, '
Ms. Seeger questioned whether they were not losing money with each delay of the
buitding.
Mr. Boudreau stated they �ere aware of the possibility of increased costs,
however, people are looking for work, so it may be likely that they could get
a better bid.
Discussion ensued on the pros and cons of when t�ould be the best time to begin
construction to get the b�sL bids versus the inflation factor bf waiting.
B. R�ort - Mississippi Road Fark
Chairperson HugheS asked fif the Commission would aliow Mr. Ed Wilmes to give
an update on the Flississippi Road Park?
Mr. Ed Wilmes stated he felt the Islands of Peace had reached the span started
hack in December, 1979, in that they have covered Gil Hodges Island, Chases Island,
and now have a request irt for the acquisition of Durham Island throWgh the Great
River Road Project. They'are asking for $339.,000.00. He has heard that the people
in Washipgton are revising their funding for spur routes, which hopefu7ly will
inctude the Istand's of Peace, and possibly the inclusion of the FMC proaerty.
He stated �hat tfie fands that were requeste8 from Great River Road Pro,iect would
be for the acquisttion of Durfiam., Is}and ($80,OQO.Ofl) and also for the building
of a 6rldge, parkfing 1ot,•and an addition to an exisiting building, a cross-over
wdter sysCem on Chase's I�1and, asid some pi'cnic tables. He stated he expected
to hear from the Great River Road people sometime in December. This was the
same agency,tfiat Etas committed funding of $1,fi65,000.00 for the acquisition of
the fMC property. Ne said that in the past tYre Metro Council has recommended that
tNe County of Anoka proceed along with tfie master plan to include the FMC property,
along with Durham, and the Island's of Peace, to become a regional park. Oncz
this was all designated as a regional park,:it would have on-going money every
year for maintenarrce artd operations. Mr. Wi}mes said this would all be under
Gounty jurisdiction then; which he personally felt was the rigfit way to go. If
for some reason, Rnoka County did not carry out it's responsibilities, then he
wauld oppose this a71 being under the County; He stated that the proposed plan
� for the FMG property was to�haye overlooks, bike trails, hikirtg trails, parking, etc.
They are also discussing the use that can be made of two buiidings on the property.
Mr. Witmes said the County ,Commissioners were gc�ing to visit the Island's of Peace
in Fridley, Octaber 26th. He said that in the past FMC had donated equipment and
manpower to help develop the Island's of Reace. He said that Lee Ann Sporre of
the Environmental Quality;Commission was concerned about the brid�e for the Island's
of Peaee. She felt it could have a�significant visual impact on the site. He

deck. The steel, in time, wrll iurn a different color that will blend in with the

was strongly encouraged by the Metropolitan Council to redraft their master
p'lan to include the FMC property, and connect ?t with the Islands of Peace and
Du'r.ham Islactd. This would have the acreage to call it a regional park. With
that assurance, and the pusb from the Metro Counc�l, not as a matter of record,
but that if it was done, the money would probably be made available.

Clair (Naturalist)
MC!« ��.�itair said t#a€-interpretation was not infot�mation. Ne stated there
ar2 a�driety of ined�{m�'to give information. He stated that different people
r�lat�:better to certrain mediums, so therefore there must be different and a
vari��� Qf°medivau �vaiidbie to teach people. He said he had titled his
��q�St�phy "Nature at ,y�uM Doorstep" because of the fact that sometimes,your
1c3r�rd is the best plac� to learn about nature:
#r: St. Clair sai,d he eonsiders the ability to communicate more important to
a i��f�ralist than`knowledge and information, because a persorn may have the
k�oWiedge-but did not know how to communicate it to the people. He said there
are personal: and non-persanal methods that are used at the nature center. An
" er:ample of nun-personaT�+a� self-guided trails where a naturalist was not
irtterµreLatirrg for an indiuidual, and a personal method would be classes. He
stated the best nature:walk was the one that went the shortest distance. This
gives:a person time to took and listen, instead of trying to cover a lot of
'-distance with no chance to comnunicate or learn.
Mh?: St.'Clair stated that his main thrust was aimed at families, and then to
�speci#3c age and interest groups. He felt a nature center was reatly an
rqcreational and educati.onal devise that brings land and people together on
intimate.terms;> where'the young and the old under the inspiration and
quid�rree of a£rained interpretive naturalist are taught to comprehend the
rna'�u�°aCl worTd around them. He further stated that a nature center seeks to
acqua�nt:yourtg children with the mysteries and the wonders of nature. It
affQrds teenagers an oppArtunity to engage in wholesome activities that are
bdt.t►.eonstructive and educational. It provides a training ground for the
ytiuth. ft permits aduTts to �s�ttlize its facilities and resources for serious
��Gudy.:and to pursue nature hobbies. It was also a place where,�ami�Tes cdq �
� gu for a waik tn the woocls. or around a lake, for real en�oyment and pleasant
-recrea�ion.
4�'='"�� .:�nc�rning fiimsel:f, Mr. Si. Clair stated tMat because interpretation was not
"� �r�n#q�ndtfon, but rather' tha method in which infatnnation was revealed to the
� s,��.�sitor, and there€Qe�, he was primarily concerned with comnunication skill,
�itid �en�5'to �mphasite that more than technical expertise of natural seie�ce
�, ��� ��£or�t,3iio,n, as a lot af information about nature cortmunicated poorly,
F:'� •"�f3�►lishes much less-than a small amount of information comnunicated very well.
;� .
' 14r. St. Clair stated t�at a primary goal was to offer positive recreational
experiences in the enviratjmer►tal interpretive area for the Fridley public.
° Ne dt�es flat want to compete with any county, statQ or national park, or center,
.bt�k,ra�her 6e a municipal program that �ive� residents imnediate concepts they
i�e7ra deitl with within the fridley area.
Mr. 5#, CTai� said they had an exhibit at the State Fair last sumner, for which
tt�ey reteived�a-ribbon; and they will also have an exhibit at the Fridley State
Batsk again this year. They atso have had a variety of scheduled displays,at the
c@rt#er-at different times. He h�s to accur�ulate �►terials far another di-5piay,..
Ne said he now had a part-time s�cretary, and a;part-.time interpreter. They have
, 8;�ewsaetter; and fal� scheduled µrograros, with an on-going program on,1�JCC0.

Mr. Boudreau said this section had been revie�ped befoxe. The Go�nission
should receive tfiis do�ument, and go over it,'and if there were any questions
they should tre deal`t with at the next meeting.
Mr. Bi11 Deblon, Associate Planner, stated that what had been added was an
implementation section. He said tMis section would be sent to the Metropolitan
Council for their review. Frbm there it will go to the fnvironmental Quality
Board for their approval. When it comes back from there, ix should 6e adopted
as an ordinance for pratection of the Critical Area's.resources. He stated the
plan was a policy for the management of these areas, which this Commission
fias already gone through, and'approved.
Mr. Deblon said that in ealy Oetober they had received a notice stating that
the Metropoiitan Councii had only received plans from certa9n cortanunitie�, and
they would be inquiring`why they had not received the plans from other communities
as yet. Fridiey was one.of those cemmunities. Ne said they had been working
on this section to get it into a draft format so it could be reviewed by
the Gomm9ssions, Planni�g Commission and City Couneil, and pub}ic review.
A draft copy..was also s�nt to the Metropolitan Council to see if they were
on.the right track. He;has received a call from tfiem, and they would be
mailing their comments ag there were some things they wanted changed,� but
these ehanges would�'t be majot^ in scope. Ne said this draft copy was being
seen by the Environmental Qua'fity Commission, the Parks & Recreation Correnission
and the Comnunity Development-Carrmission. The Planning Commission would be
reviewing it October 24��t.'
Chairperson Hughes said'that the Commission members should express their
input to her sometime this week as their representative on the Ptanning
Cor�nnission, or else they would have to make their comments at the Plannina
Commission meeting, as there would not be a chance to make any official
cort�nent or input on thi5 Section.
MOTION by Ms. Mech, seconded by Mr. Young, to receive the Critical Areas's
Plan draft dated D�tober, 1979: Upon a voice vate, all voting aye, Chairperson
Hughes declared the motion carried unanimousty.
Ghairperson Hughes said:that she did note that a parcel of land off of River's
Edge Way, which gave riyer access throuyh someone's back yard, had not been
addressed in this plan. She felt that if they were going to have boating on
the River, this was a good place, and would'really fit into this kind of plan.
Mr. De67on said this wa5 not addressed ;n'the.pian, but felt_it should.be.
Mr. Boudreau felt the p�licy statements in the plan rrould cover River's Edge Way.

Mr. 6oudreav stated they have the yearly ,ccurr ng,pro em oo c es ap is
Chuxch School atilizing the Ciiy's facilities at Madsen Park. He said they �
�ave he�� us##�g'Locke Park, but because of an irr-igation system being put in
at Locke Park,-they have gone to Madsen Park. He said they use the park facilities
for theTr vars9ty soccer, their every day physi�a�education activiiies, and
as :their playground. He stated the legal apinion they��d= received before
was that there rras no way the City could legally stop the school from this use.
Chairpersoq Hughes questioned as to why the G4ty would want to stop them.
t4rr,8ottkreau said that when you put 500 school age children on a park area, day-in
and day-out,.that was a lot of use. He went on to say, that the schaol has not
cQOperated we71 in tMe past, and the help they have received was mare of a
detriment than a he1p. He felt this.school was�+using public facilities to
suppTement thefr education program, and their organized sport program. How
far does the City Park and Recreation Department go to service an educational
system7
�fiairperson Hughes said Mr. Boudreau should log the time, use and wear, of the
facilities, and maybe they could be approached for some change �n use, or
`money to hetp maintain the facility.
Ms: Seeger`questioned what type Qf arrangeme�t the City has with a school like
- 6race H9gh Schoot?
Mr: Boudreau said they have coaperated in that tfie City has piaced a hockey
ri�ak on 6nace property. Grace would be putting in a building at their expense,
•.and:wfii pay the elec�ric bill for the lights,'and use it for school classes.
�. 7he..City wi11 use it for hackey. The City aroul� he putting up-a sign that this
dtas 3 public rink.` He said that jn the past, 6race has let tBe City use some of
tfie�r o�tdoor area for the City's sumner proyram.
�1r,.Boudreau safid that fie fiad suggested to Woodcrest that they could maybe purchase
�e bteacfiers or fenc-ing for the park, and the response he received was they
': ''#�Y� �io money and would`tie ab1e to supply manpower only. He felt that before
". next year, the Conrcnission sf�ouad sit down with the Woodcrest Baptist Church Schoot

.n„r�t,t,, ' n� eTTr_rrcm � � 479_ HiRdAN RESOL�t:CES COT.^.`1ISSION MIRTDTES:
y Ms. van Pan, seconded bp �Ir. Sauiiders, co approve the AugusC 2, 1979,
sburces Conxnission miautes. Upon a voice ��ote, a11 voCing aye,
son-Treuenfels declared the mol•ion�carried uaanimously.
.....,,. - --- -
Ms. Hughes staCed that she was very interasted in the allocaYion of monies
to organizations and Chat was one of Che reasons she was at Che meeting.
At the meeting, the Con�nission G�ouJ.d be votir.g on monies to be allocated to
several org3ni•r,ations, one o£ whicn is the Central Center for Family Resources
' which is now'fimctioning in Spring I�ake Park. SHe £elt human resources was
probably one of-the most imporCan[ sesources in this conw�unity. She liked
the''idea of the'preventative aspects of t'he Central Center for Fam31y Resources'
prpgram. She stated she was both!irriCated and disappointed that something
had not been done on that project thus iar. The Rlanning Commission had
reco�ended 'Che fuading to City Council, and L'he City Council had passed
it back with no guidelines or guidai.ce-and no indicatian of what kinds of
monies are available £or helpi��g cottununity groups. She stated that the
Planning Commission had askeri several ti.mes for firm figures on the monies
auailahle, iShe state�l that thi.s was puttfng a terrible burden on the Human
Reso.atces Cormnission.
AUMAN AGSdURCES COMMISSION P�ETING OCTOBER 18 1979 - PAGE 2
Ms, Hughes stated that there was no obligation on the Commission's part to
put these funding requests in numerical order. She thought that was
a difficult proposition.
Ms. Hughes stated that of the organizations that had been funded in the past,
the Central CenGer for Family Resources seemed Iike a good one and one that
the people of Fridley were in need of and a service that was nice to have close.
She stated she knew some of the people involved in the program, so it was well
run, and they were doing everything they could to get funding. It is very
di.fficu2t to ge1 £unding for new projects, and they were doing remarkably well
in obtaining funding, including some funding from local busiuesses and neigh-
boring communities. Wltile the functions the Center is performing may belong
somewhere else, these functions are not being provided anywhere else at this
point and need to be,
Ms. Hughes stated she wouLd encourage the Human Resources Commission to do
what,they can in texins of funding worthy groups.
Mr. Treuenfe2s stated the Commiesion had four requests to consider:
1. Central Center for Eamily Resources -$S,OCO
2, Anoka County Seniar Citizen Outreach Program -$1,000
3. Southern Anoka Community Assistance -$500
4, KKKY. (Koping with Kids from Kradle to Kindergarten) - no Formal funding
request
Ms. van Dan stated that in Mr, Qureshi's ].etter, Mr. Qureshi iaas suggestiu�
that the Coz�mfssion prioritize the funding requests by percentage. She
stated that if the Co�nission did not know the funds available - Yhe i-unding
base - how could they determine the percentages?
Ms. van Dan stated that at a previous meeting, she had expressed a strong
i-eeling in favor of giving the total amount requested ($5,000) to the CentraZ
Center for Family Resources. She also believed that they had to do �verything
possible to save their human resources,and preventative medicine was her chief
interest. She could not thi.nk of any better way than starting with the
young. She was in favor of every program offered by this organization and
could ncc see where these Programs were handled by any other groups within
the County.
Mr. Treirenfels asked Ms. Carlson what percentage of the Center's clients
were coming from Fridley?
Ms. Carlson stated she could give some exact figures, keeping in mind that
the Center officialty opened its doors to counseling services on August 20th
and began running parenting programs on OctoUer 2. They have 28 people
presently participating iri the parenting sessions, which is the maKimum
amount of people they can handle in rwo classes. The evening class has 5
pEC+ple from Fridley, She uras not sure about the morning class.
HUMAN RESOURCES GOMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 18 1979 - PAGE 3
Ma;'Carlson statad that they publicized the Center's programs through the
recreation bulletins in Blaine and Spring Lake Park, Uut were not able Co
use the Fridley community newsletter. Since they did not get the same
distribution in Fridley, she did not know if they could count the 5 people
as a totally,accurate representation or future predictor. In terms of Che
counseling serdices, they are presently working with 20 families. She thought
4 of those families were Fridley families. She stated that in the shorC time
they have been in operation, the demand has been evident. The in-service
was done in Fridley and in the Anoka County system, as well as in Blaine and
Spring Lalce Park areas, and referrals were coming in from a11 different
souxces.
Mr. Saunders asked Ms. Carlson where their referrals come from?
Ms. Carlson stated they were getting referrals from the County, elementary
schools through princinals, and also have referrals through the police depart-
ments,
Ma, Carlaon stated she wanted to stress that the communities wer= represenCed
on'their boards, and tliese represeneatives were listened to so each community
had input and contrals in terms of the Cente.r's direction.
The Commission members thanY.ed Ms. Carlson £or coming to the meeting and for
answering their questions.
Mr. Treuen£els stated that the Commission should look at the needs of each
o£ the organizations and how they are being met from various sources of funding.
How much of it'is up to the City of Fridley to supply that funding as cos�pared
to othes'sources of funding? The Com�ission should try to get some idea as
to how mang people are being reached and helped by the various programs.
Ms. Carlson was'able to give some indication as to how many Fridley people
are being helped.
Mr, Saunders stated that when you consider the family size and the people
involved in this kind of thing, $S,OOa was a fairly small figure. He would
assume that as the Center grew, probably the dollars per family would lessen
rathex than expxnd. He felt best qualified to vote on the request from Che
Central Center for Family 2esources becauce of their earlier presenCation and
that'it was highly recommended at that time. He staCed he was in favor of
funding it and giving the Centex a chance, especially for one year, and after
one year the Commission could take another look at what was accomplished,

UNANIMOUSLY� PUBLIC HEARING OPENED AT r7:40 P.M.
Hr. Boardman explained the building located on the plat had been built sitting on:the--
t.lots crooked, due to an engineering mistake. The rgplat was necessary to allow the
ownership recoxds to coincide with the building. The staff had no problems with the
replat.
Mr. Richard Cherrier (4206 Woodbine Lane, Mpls., Mn 55429), stated he represented the
architect firm that built the building. The firm assumed the total responsibility of
the placement error. The encroachment, at the moat, was approximately 12 feet.
Mx. Schnabel questioned the point on the northeast corner of the building. She thought

this point was also w er the lot line. She asked if the cement slabs for the garage
building were too close to the curb.
Mr. Cherrier sa3d the lot line had a jog in it to accommodate the corner she questioned.
He also stated the cement slabs met city code requirements as far as placement was
concerned.

UNANIMOUSLY. PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED AT 7:46 P.M.
Ms, Schnabel asked if thexe was any thing in the new or old zoning ordinances that would
protect the city in instances like this. She was referxing to the possibility oE a fine
levied against a developer if he places the building on the lot wrong.
Mr, Boardman said he was not awaxe of any such ordinance. Besides, he said a mistake
like this was a common building mistake, and it would not be fair to fine someone for
a honeat mistake.
Mr. Harris said that question could be discussed later.

KAliLA BLOMSERG: Being a replat of Lots 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and the West half of Lot
10; Lots 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, and 20, all in Block 2, Spring Lake Park
Lakeside Addition, and Lots 3� 4 and 5, Block 1, Andco Terrace, generally bound
by Osborne Road on the North, 75th Avenue on the South, Arthur Street on the
West, and Lakeside Road on the East.
MOTION by Ms. Hughes, seconded by Mr. Treuentels to open the public hearing.
UPON A VOICE;VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHArRMAx F7�giS DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED
UNANIMOiTSLY.
Mx. Boardman explai.ned that this land was formally owned by the Spring Lake Park School
District. In the Compxehensive Plan it was designated excess pxoperty and put up for
sale. The proposed plat has 42 lots. Road right-of-way was picked up by the City on the
Andco Texrace Addition, which would help create the access on to Lakeside Road. Ri�ht-
of-way was also picked up Lots 23 and 22 when split. There was additional right-of-way
picked up between 1559 and 1571 ?5t1r.Avenue. The rest of the needed right-of-way will
be dedicated by the developer. The Lakeside Road access runs between two lots that are
already built on. The city does have road right-of-way between these two lots, but
placing the road here would be putting it 5 feet fxom the garage located at 7520 Lakeside
Road.. The homeowner, 7550 Lakeside, was considering negotiations with the developer to
allow a jog in the road. This jog would take some of that homeownex's sideyard, but he
would be able to purchase or through developer's dedication acquire the land to the rear
of his and create a larger backyard.
PLANNING GOMMISSZON MESTING NOVffi�ER 7 1979 PAGE 3
Mr. Boardman said if the Planning Co�ission approves the request the staff would like
to see the following stipulatians:
1. Any necessary fees required be obtained before the final plat approval.
2. Necessary road right-of-way for accessbe obtained by the developer.
3. Approval by the Rice Creek Watershed of the plat befo�e final approval
by the CiCy Council.
4. A sewer and water layout be approved by the City staff before final plat
appraval.
5. Necessary drainage and utility easeanents be obtained.
Mr. Harris quesCioned what fees would be necessary.
Mr. Boardman said there was a paxk fee, plus an environmental development fee. The
latterhas been required on 2 previous lot splits. This fee was to be used for neighbor-
hood improvemenCS, such as landscaping or possible stoxm sewer improvements. This was
presently being developed by the City Manager's office and Mr. Boardman stated he has
had some discussions with Mr. Qureshi on what the full policy was. This was a new
poiicy to him and he did not fully understand it yet.
Mr. Harris demanded to know who staxted this fee. He said the Planning Co�nission
had not heard of this fee before and did not think Council had �iven appraval of it.
He wanted to know if this was something sCaff started. He questioned what previous
lot splits had been required to pay it, how much the fee was and where the money went
when collected. Mr. Harris said if this was money £or stasm sewer impswement we should
call it that.
Mr. Boardman siad it was not a storm sewer escrow, but a land development fee.
Mr. HaYris said he was vezy upset about this and would get some answers.
Ms. Hughes stated there was a difference between fees Chat are necessary and those
that are desired. Park fees are necessary and the stipulation on fees should state
what fees are required.
Mr. Oquist added another way to state that would be fees that are authoxized (paxk fees)
and fees that are unauthorized. This fee was unauthorized.
Mr. Boardman explained one use would be the correction of downstream storm sewer problems.
Some sort of action in the future to alleviate those problems will have to be taken and
possibly this was what the City Manger's office had in mind.
Mr. Aasria said we should get the Council and city attorney's opinion on this fee. He
wanted to know how Che city can charge for something before the policy has been written
and authorized,
Mr. Boardman went on to say the staff could see no development problems with the plat.
The only possible one would be access on to Lakeaide Road. City ordinance requires the
developer to obtain access in and out of a new plat.
Ms. Schnabel asked for the aerial of this neighborhood and where the homes and garages
were located by the planned Lakeside Road access.
PLADINING COMMISSION MEETING NOVEMBSR 7 1979 PAGE 4
Ma. Kazla Blomberg, 1661 Camelot Lane came forward, She said she was unaware of this
$800.00 per lot environmental development fee until recently. She did not know how
the city could arbitrarily decide on such a fee. Ms. "Blomberg said she talked to the
City Manager on it and did not get any answeres that could show the need for such a fee.
She said her ]awyer_-was checking in to it. She asked Mr. Harris to please check into _
__
it also.
Ms. Hughes asked if she would go aLong with the new road plan for the Lakeside Road
accesa.
Ms. Blomberg said she had not had time to negotiate, but thought the new plan would be
okay. She felt the road should be mwed because of safety (too close to a garage) and
looks. She also said the Rice Creek Watershed DistricC was meeting on the 28th of this
month Co discuss the plat. She was told toqait on any aewer and water plan until aftex
that meeting so any conditions or recoommendations cauld be implemented in the plan.
Mr, Harris said a final sewer and water plan would be required before the plat was given
final approval.
Ms. Schnabel asked it she owns this land and would be developing it,
Ms. Blomberg replied a contractor, her husband and herself own the land and would be
constructing cuffi�m built homes.
Ms. Hughes noted the lot widths varied from 75 to 90 feet and wondered why they had
done this.
Ms. Blombezg said the different lot widths allow homeowners to choose a lot and house
plan without having to worry about getting variances. Some house plans require a wider
lot then others. It also gives less confoYmity to the neighborhood.
Mr, Boardman said one change recou�ended by sYaff would be to switch the lot widths
of Lots 11 and 14, Block 3, with those of Lots 12 and 13, Block 3. This would make the
comer lots 85 feet wide instead of 80 feet and with the sideyard requirements, develo-
ping the lots would he easiex.
Mr. Harris asked for audience discussion.
Mr, Leo Heyne, 7550 Lakeside Road, said he was the owner of the lot which the Lakeside
Road access would be by. Mx. Heyne said he was unaware until after he bought his home
that his house was placed so he had no rear yard, only aideyard. He stated he would 6e
w illing to work out an agreement where the proposed road could jog over onto his sideyard.
He would then buy the Land to the rear of his propezty and cYeate a larger backyard fox
himself. Mr. Heyne said if he purchased approximately 45 feet and with some juggling
of the developer's lot lines, the plat would have the same number of lots.
Mrs. Winifred Maki, 7520 Lakeside Road, said she liX;g$ on the opposite side of the pro-
posed road. Her gaxage would be located S feet from the road, She expressed concern on
t he water table. There was a creek bed in this area and she questioned if the new con-
struction could cause the water tabel to rise. She also said she was against the streeC
going in next to her gaYage 6ecause she would loose her sideyard.
Mx. Oquist queationed what creek Mrs, Maki was referring to.
PLANNING GOrAfISSION MEETING NOVEI�ER 7 1979 PAG&--5
Mr. Boardman said this was an underground creek bed and Comstock and Davis had been asked
to determine the level of the water table and flow for this area.
Mr. Greg Kline, 7612 Arthur SYreet, said he was concerned by the possibility of head-
lights shining into homes where the proposed streets came out. He also wanted to
know if the entire plat would be graded and leveled at one time and then allowed to
sit until constnsction starts.
Ms. Blomberg replied it was too expensive to level the entire area without any construc-
tion co�niCments. They also intend to leave the land as natural and rolling as it was
presently.
Mr. Lloyd Dawson, 1525-75th Avenue NE, asiced what type of construction would be put in
the area.
Mr. Harris replied it would be all R-1, single family dwellings.
Mr. Jim Carlson, 7531 Lakeside Road, wanted to know why the street could not be brought
out to the county Toad (Osborne Road) instead of having an additional 40 people trying to
get out by using Lakeside Road. He said the corner of Lakeside and Osborne was a vis-
ually hazardous intersection already, If the road came out onto Osborne, perhaps the
aounty would improve the road. This would also keep more traffic off of a residential
street where there are kids playing.
Mr. Harris said the city has no control over what the county does and they were touchy
about giving any road accesses on theix roads.
Ms. Blomberg said if the road went through Lots l-4, Block, they would loose 2 lots, plus
Lot 21 would have roads on 3 sides.
Mrs. John Hennes, 7600 Arthur Street, asked if the developers would be rezoning the
area at all or leaving it R-1.
Mr. Blomberg said they would be leaving it R-1.
Mr, Carlson asked if they would grade and fiil in the law spots and then start building,
He was worried about excess dust blowing around.
Mr. Blomberg said they would grade for the streets firts and then do 1 to 5 lots at a
time. Mrs. Blomberg sdded that she could see the possibility of filling in low spots
w ith fill from the area and that could cause eome dust pxoblems.
Mrs, KaYen Lennox, 7547 Lakeside Road, wanted to know if there had to be an acces on to
Lakeside Road from 75'� Avenue or if there was any other type of access possible.
Mr. Harris said it would be difficult to place the road elsewhere.
Mrs, Lennox stated it wouldn't be difficult, but expensive to the developer. She was
not sure of the alternative available, but felt Mr. Carlson's suggestion of having an
access onto Osborne Road was good, She aiso said with the number of homes involved, __
possibly matching up a road with 76th ox bringing the new road back around to Arthur
Street would be a solution,
PLANNING CONIMTSSION MEETING NOVffi�ER 7 1979 PAGE 6
Members of the audience who live on Arthur Street obiected to the latter proposal be-
cause all the trafiic burden would be on their street.
Mr. Boardman said if they matched up with 76th Avenue they would need a cul-de-sac to
run down to service the south lots. City codes limit the length that a cul-de-sac can
be. Due to police and fire protection and sCreet maintenance, city policy was to keep
away from cul-de-sacs.
Ms, Hughes pointed out if a street was put in to match up with 76th, a cul-de-sac plus
one more street would still be needed. She wanted to know if there was some other
alCernative.
Mr. Boardman said you would have to have at least 1 or 2 cul-de-sacs then. Cul-de-sacs
take up more area and the sewer and water has to be looped to sexvice the homes, It
was very expensive for the developer plus expensive for the city to maintain.
Mr. Heyne said he would go along with a cul-de-sar`to service the lots in back of his
property. He also pointed out the cul-de-sac that was recently built on Flanery.
Mrs. Maki asked if the commission would recommend a cul-de-sac by their property if it
meant them loosing ZS feet of their property to a road.
Mr. Boardman said he could understand Mrs. Maki's feelings, but again stated because
of development costs and maintenance costs the city wants to stay away from cul-de-sacs.
Mr. Heyne said he was not convinced of the maintenance problem. He walks by the one on
Flanery on his way to work each day and has nevex seen a snow removal problem.
Ms, Schnabel said she lives on a cul-de-sac and they have had terrible snow remwal pro-
blems in Che winters'. The plowing was a pain and they have had to have special plows
come out and efther push the snow way up into their yards or into the middle of the cul-
de-sac. She also said living on a cul-de-sac was noiser because you are closer to your
neighbor's home.
Mrs. Maline Fish, 7501 Lakeside Road, said she did not like cul-de-sacs either and pro-
posed the road to come back onto Arthur Street.
Mr. Oquist pointed out the traffic burden would then be on only those homeowners.
Ms. Schnabel asked if the deveLoper had tried any other access designs.
Ms. Blomberg replied they are not_trying to make it difficult for the present homeowners
They had worked with the Planning Department on the plan and this was the most feasible
as far as potential development and costs. The surveyox they had contacted felt this
was the most feasible plan also.
Mr. John Hennes, 7600 Arthur Street, asked about the possibility of flipging the plan.
Mr. Harris said this would make the Lakeside Road accesa too c:.ose to Osborne Road and
could cause a stacking problem on Lakeside Road. This would be a safety hazard.
Mrs. Lennox suggested trading off the road access the city already has on Lots 21 and 22,
put the road in to line up wiCh 76th Avenue and then re-ahuffle the lot widths on Lake-
side Road.
PLANNING COiIIitSSION MEETING, NOVII�ffiER 7, 1979 PAGE 7
Mr. Boardman said Lots 21 and 22 could not be serviced if they were to be split.
It was asked how Lots 1 and 2 on the north end would he serviced.
Mr. Haxris said if these lots are split, a driveway easement would be required across
Lot 4 to service Lot 2.
Ma. Blomberg agreed to that. A 25 feet driveway easement would be dedicated for this
purpose.
MOTION by Ms. Hughes, seconded by Mr, Treuenfels to close the public hearing.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, AI.L VOTING AYS, CHAIRMAN HARRIS DECLARED THE I�TION CARRIED
UNANIMOUSLY. PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED AT 9:02 P.M,
Ms. Hughea said thexe wexe other alternative solutions for the roads, but none seemed
as feasible as the one presented. She felt becauae of the stacking problem if the plan
was flipped, the added cul-de-sacs and becauae right-of-way had already been dedicated,
this plan was the best. However, this plan would depend on if an agreement could be made
between the 2 homeowners and the � e po er --
--------- _ —
�--
Ms. Schnabel said unless that agreement was made, it would be haxd to say what could
happen. If they can't make that agreement the pian may have to be reviewed by the
Elanning Co�ission again. The burden was on the developer to get the needed access.
She felt a reco�nendation could be made to the City Council based on that agxeement
or else the Council will have to come up with some other solution.
Ms. Hughes said with all the stipulations requested by staff and the agreement that was
needed for road access, what was the best way to handle this request.
Mr. Harris said the con¢nission had the option to deny the request, or make a recommenda-
tion fox apprwal to Council with the staff stipulations plus the accesa agreement. If
t he aceess agreement was not worked out, it should come back to the cou¢nission.
Ms. Hughes said she would like to see the reco�endation first by the Rice Creek Water-
shed District.
Ms. Blomberg said if the Rice Creek Watershed District required holding or retention
ponds that would change the configuration of the plat. However when she did talk to
t h�, Yhey thought the plan looked okay. If reconfiguration was needed, then she
would have to come back to the Planning Co�ission. Possihly they could make a recom-
mendation on that possibility.
Mr. Boardman auggested they pass reco�endation to Council if there was no reconfiguration
change. If there was a reconfiguration then it ahould come back to the commission for
review. He could not see any point in holding up the plat if there was no change. He
pointed out that Council could change the final plat if necessary,
Mx. Harris stated that was true, but would like to see the plan go to Council as com-
p lete as possible.

alternative road configuratian be to line up with 76th Avenue.

Co�iasion minutes of October 18, 1979.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE� CHAIRMAN HARRIS DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED
ANANIMOUSLY,
Ms. Hughes said the discussion on fundi�8 was referred to the Council. T.he bouncil
had received r�commendations from the P anning ommiss on before and had sent those
recommendations ba�`k to the Human Resource Caa�ission. She wanted to know if Planning
Co�ission had more to say on the funding resources. She wished to discuss them more.

PLANNING CAMMISSION MEETING NO�III�ER 7 1979 PAGE 9
Mr. Boaxdman said he noticed they had allowed maney for a contingency fund (35% of
$10,000) and wanted to know if thexe was money available for thaY fund would they
use it up on more requests or what would happen to it.
Mr. Treuenfds said the other requests received totaled $6,500 and they have received
one more request and will probably get more. The money for those additional requests
wi11 pxesumably come out of the contingency fund.
Ms. Hughes said the request to detexaiine the amounts came down by either the Council
or the City Manager. They did not give an exact dollar amount to work with and the
Human Resource Commission picked out the amount of $10,000. It was hard to give a
certain percentage for each request because if the dollar amount was different, say
only $5,000, the commission could have ranked each request different. The commission
was not given enougli:information to work with. How can you give a request a percentage
of an unkown amount. That was a critical question. She felt the dollar amounts
alloted each request should be increase, for example to $20,000 each, plus increase the
amount of the contingency fund to help fund the critieal area requesis like SACA.
Mr. Boardman said he had some questions and problems on that. The idea that Council
and the City Manager's office was getting at was you have an unknown amount of dollars,
and five requests. How would prioritize each request and decide what percentage each
priority gees. If there was only $5,000 available and prioriCy one tequests $8,000,
do we give them a11 of the money available or do we give them only a percentage of the
amount available.
Mr. Oquist said the percentage business was fine for what we know today. But, was this
something we go thru the first o£ each year. We may not know then who will be requesting
finds and how much.
Mr. Harris said he would like to see no dollar amounts, but decided on percentage figures.
Does priority one get 50% of what ever amount was available. He felt there should be a
cut off date on the applications so that the amounts can be budgeted into the ne.�ct year's
budget. He felt this was what Council was looking for.
Ms. Hughes said Council got Chat in these minutes. The Auman Resource Commission recom-
mended 100% funding of the requeats. She said Planning Commission should concur- with
that recommendation.
Mr. Treuenfels said the request by KI�C was not in at the time of this meeting that
decided on the other requests.
Mx. Boaxdman said he .felt that reco�endation would be a good one to sent to Council,
He also said the applications should he in by a certain cut off date so the Human Resource
Co¢mmission can give the requests priority lisCing. Those priorities would be ranked
however that co�ission wished, perhaps by service to the co�nuniCy. They then would
have to give each priority a percentage. For example, priority one gets 50% of their
funds or da they get 50! of their request.
Mr. Treuenfels doubted the scheme of priority one getting all the funds if funds are
low and no one else getting anything.
Mr. Soardman stated that was why the Human Resource Commission had to decide how to
divide up the available funds.

Mr. Oquist said it will be known how much money there was available because these
requests will be asked for before the new budget was adopted.
Ms. Hughes questioned what happens to requests that come in after the budget has been
adopted. There wi11 be money still available somehow, somewhere in the budget.
Mr. Haxris said he has a problem with how these request come in now. How can the CiYy
justify to the taxpayers having a$100,000 contingency fund that may not be used.
Ms. Hughes said ahe could understand that point, but requests will come up later and
h ow do we handle them.
Mr. Haxris saic? we only have so much money that we can work with. If we went to the
Federal govettnment after their cut off we would be told the same thing.
Mr. Boardman Yeplied that was why a process should be set up. Right now Council was
setting up a priorities list arbitrarily on a first come first serve basis,The money
has never been budgeted for these requests. We need to have the Human Resource Co�is-
sion make Yecommendations and set up a list.
Mr. Harris said he was against slush funds. He felt it was better to have monies
budgeted.
Ms. Hughes replied the lobbying for funds should be done while the budget was being
worked on and not through the Human Resource Commiasfon.
Mz. Boaxdman said the Human Resource Co�nission would be needed to seC up priorities.
If the Council has a priarity list, they can then detexmine the amount of money avail-
able and needed. They could cut and add to the contingency fund as needed by this
pYioxity list.
MOTION by Ms. Hughes to concurr with the recot�endation to the City Council by the
Human Resousce Co�ission on allocation of funds to the Central Center for Family
Resources ($5,000), Anoka County Senior Citizen Outreach Program ($1,000) and SACA
($500).
Chairman Harris declared the motion failed because of a lack of a second,
Mr. Harris wanted to know if these requests come out of the 1980 budget.
Ms. Hughes said no, �hey should come out of the 1979 budget.
Mr. Boardman said it would more then likely have to come out of the 1980 budget,
Ms. Hughes said these requests were received in June and July and they want the money
now.
Mr. Oquist pointed out that if they recommended approval of the money tonight, it will
probably noC be paid until January 2, 1980, so therefore it will be 1980 budgeted money.
Steve Kline, representing Anoka County Senior Citizen's Outreach Program, said his pro-
g ram placed it`s request about 4 months ago and are on a very tight budget. Anyway to
speed up the pxocess to get the maney would be appreciated.

Mr. Harris said they axe not suxe where the money was budgeted, but would not with
hold it if they had it.
Ms. Schnabel asked if in 7 or 8 month these requests would need more money, where does
t he money come from tthen.
Mr, Kline said as of July, 1980, this program will be locally funded with a 507 matching
Federal grant. This contribution from Fridley would be a one time contribution. They
have already received funds from neighboYing cities.
Ms. Schnagel asked how the other cities appropriated funds.
Mr. Boardman �$�d the same way we are'doing it.
Mr. Oquiet said requests made in 1980 will have to be handled the same way they are now
being handled. Requests in 1981 will be budgeted for. However,.these programs that
request funda will have to be notified so they know of the new funding policy. We
will have to play it by ear until budgeting starts in 1980 for the 1981 budgeC. If we
don't have the money to give out until the budgeted maney takes over, then we won't.
Mr. Boardman agreed, He said what Planning Co�ission will be saying was that the pre-
aent requests will be paid for out of the 1980 slush fund. As of July, 1980, we will
start the new policy where programs make application for budgeted money. The Human
Resource Co�fssion will then prioritize the requesffi and Council will then budget for
them.
Mr. Oquist said that was what he was saying. We cannot p=ioxitize these requesta or set
a percentage on them because there was no 1980 budget for them. The Planning Co�ission
reco�ends paying the stated amount £or .each request, and that was all they could do
now.
Ms, Aughes said the City could pay these requeats before January 2, 1980 if they really
wantcd to.
Mr. Harris wanted to know if SACA's xequest would be enough. He could not imagine them
making their budget on only $500 until 1981. He felt they should be contacted to see
if that would be enough.
Ms. Iiughes said she would go and call Yat Brennen and ask her to come to the meeting.
Chaix�man Harcis declared a xecess at 10:o8 P.M. and reconveyned at 10:25 P.M.
Pat Brennen, President of the Board and Co-ordinator of SACA, said she had turned her
request in last sunmer, plus she sent a letter to Mr. Qureshi and did not get a reply.
Later ahe and Mr. Watson, also of SACA, went and saw Mr. Qureshi and were told at that
time $500 was little enough for what SACA does for the co�unity. They are sti11 wait-
ing for their money.
Mr. Harris e�plained they were setting up a new program which could eliminate any more
funding until January 2, 1981. This $500 approved now may have to last SACA fox an
18 month period and wanted to know if that amount was enough>
Mrs. Brennen said she believed SACA should get money from Fridley each year. Columbia
Heights has donated a house plus utilities for them to use. All they pay was $40 a

month for telephone service. S�A serves more Fridiey residents then Columbia Heights
and ehould help in funding. She stated they would need the $500 for 1979 and an addi-
tional $500 for 1980. That amount would cover the telephone service.
Mr. Oquist asked if they would be notifying Central Center.
Mr, Harris said no. The commission felt $5,000 was a good si2e contribution.
Ms. Hughes said the program has started. They have had 5 state grant reviews and were
turned down on the last one. They have been told the grant program that they wrote was too _
good and they are Coo new. They have only been in operation since August, 1979. She
said they are in worse needs of funds now then if they had gotten state funds. They
have been serving families in the area already. Some funding has come through Blaine,-
Spring Lake Park and Medtronic. Their biggest problem waa getting £unds for administra-
tive costs and individual counseling. They plan to add one more counaelor for individual
counseling, but the counaeling feea will pay for that. It was an expensive, but needed,
serv�.ce. The $5,000 would be used to help set up the first year of operation.
Mr. Harris questioned the status of I�QZIC.
Mr. Treuenfels said they have asked for $3,000. But the Human Resource Co�ission did
not feel they had looked elszwhere for funding help and also were not sure how many
people this program reached. Members of KHICR had offered to pay more than the $10 per
year fee, but had been turned down by the Board of KKKK. He said the Human Reaource
Co�ission reco�ended to the Planning Co�ission at their last meeting matching funds
up to $1�500.
MOTION by Mr. Treuenfels, seconded by Ms. Hughes to concur with the recommendations by
the Human Resourc� Co�nission.to recommend to the City Council to pay the following
fund Yequests:
1. Central Center for Fam31y Resouices
2. Anoka Cty. Sr. Citizens Outreach Program
3. SACA, change from $500 to

$5,000 50%
$1,000 10%

$1,500 15%
$1,500: 15%
Ms. Hughes asked if percentages where included in Mr. Treuenfels motion, Mr. Treuenfels
said yes and also the contingency fund.
Ms. Hughes withdrew her second.
Chaixman Harris declared the motion failed because of a lack of a second,
I�TZON by Mr. Treuenfels, seconded by Ms, Hughes to cancur with the recomnendations by
the Human Resource Coffinis9ion to reco�end to the City Council to pay the following

Mr. Oquist questioned the time limit on KKKK for raiaing funds to receive the matching
funds of up to $1,500. He felt there should be a cnt off period. He said he did not
know what the KKKK was and it did not seem right to him that SACA or the Sr. Citizen
Outreach Program should only get $1,000 each. He also could not go along with the
motion because of the contingency fund.
Mr. Treuenfels explained what KKKK was, stating it was a place for parents and pre-
achoolers to come aad do activities with their children, other children and parents.
They use a room at the Coffinunity Education buildir�g. They did present a budget of $3100.
Mr. Boardman sa'sd if the $3,000 had been apprwed we would have been funding their
entire program.
Mr. Oquiat could not see where that much funding would be required. He pointed especially
since they turned down additioual funding by the people who use the program.
Mrs. Brennen said she was on the Educatian Advisory Board and the funding was based on
a strong community need for a preschool program. This was an ungoing program and she
hated to see it stopped.
Mr. Oquist said it should get some support from the school district.
Ms. Schnabel eaid the program almost sounded like a day care center.
Mrs. Brennen said the parents are involved with the program each time their child was
there. The thought was the parent was the most important teacher a child has.
Mr. Oquist felt the people using this program should be able to fund it more then they
were.
Ms. Schnabel felt it seemed to touch the different areas of social work, parks and rec-
reation and education and was not sure if it was something the City should fund.
Mr. Boardman stated this was were the pxio=ities will help out. If an organization,
t hat helps the citizens, has looked at all aspects of funding their program and none
was available, then the city could help, It seemed the KIa� had not looked at all the
areas yet open to them for funding. That was an important question for the city Co ask.
MOTION by Ms. Hughes, seconded by Ms. Schnabel to aarcnend the original motion to read
that KI�C must raiae by Ju1y 1, 1980, at least $1,000 to receive matching fund up to
$1,000 fxom the City.
