UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRMAN HARRIS DECLARED THE MOTZON CRRRIED
UNANIMOUSLY.
4. RECEIVE MEDTRONIC ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WORKSHEET:
Mr. Boardman stated that Staff has reviewed this document but found that the
creosote problem was not mentioned to any extent within the document itself.
At the City Council meeting on Monday, October 6, the City Council agreed to
have a letter go along with the document when the document is received by the
Environmental Quality Board (EQB). This letter states that the Pollution
Control Agency (PCA) has reviewed the creosote oroblem, and if the PCA approves
it, the City of Fridley will go along with the PCA's recommendations.
Mr. Harris stated he would like the following two pieces of information
included as part of the record: (1) "Pentachlorophenol"; (21 "Review of
Creosote Use in Natural Waters"
Mr. Svanda stated he had reviewed the Environmental Assessment Worksheet {EAS);
and, as Staff had mentioned, there was no mention of the creosote situation.
He felt that one of the purposes of an EAS is to pull all pieces fiogether as
far as potential environmental concerns.
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, OCTOBER 8 1980 PAGE 3
Mr. Svanda stated he thought the EAS was a good document except for the fact
that no mention was made of the creosote problem, and he felt there were a
number of places where it could have been addressed. One example was on page 21
under "Other Environmen�al Concerns".
Mr. Svanda stated he had attended the City Council meeting on October 6 and
made a presentation to the City Council as a citizen of the City. Followina
his presentation to the City Council, they entered into a discussion about the
creosote problem. Following that discussion, the City Council decided to
include the transmittal letter with the document. He stated he was satisfied
with the letter approach by the City Council. ,
Mr. Harris stated his real concern is with the previous use of the dump pit
which is very close to the Po ce Creek bank, and he could not help believing that
there is probably a danger or hazard from the previous use of the dump pit. He
felt someone should get a handle on Ric� Creek and find out if the thing does have
some PCP's. He felt there is a real lack of information as to whether there is
a health hazard over there. He stated he is very concerned about pentachlorophenol
which is a very dangerous chemical.
(Mr. Oquist arrived at therreeting at 8:03 p.m.)
Ms. Hughes stated the problem with creosote and pentachlorophenol is what the
decomposition products are, which are highly dangerous. It is not the penta-
chlorophenol that is the problem, but the decomposition products. There'CO�Yd
be a real problem at the drainage pit by the Creek.
Mr. Harris asked what action was necessary by the Planning Comnission on this
document.
Mr. Boardman stated that the EAW was for the expansion of Medtronics. He
stated the Planning Comnission had already made recommendations after their
initial meeting. These recommendations were taken into consideration and
went before the City Council on October 6. He stated that no further action
was necessary by the Planning Comnission unless they felt some issues were
missed or needed further consideration.
Ms. Hughes stated the only place those things would be effective would be at
the PCA Board meeting on October 28.

UPON A VOICE VOTE� RLL[DTING AYE, CHAIRMAN HRRRIS DfiCLRRED THE MOTION CRRRIED

Mr. Narris stated he felt the City of Fridley should have some representation
at the PCA meeting on October 28 to express the City's concerns.

MOTION BY MR. OQUIST, SECONDED BY MR. TREPENFELS� TO RECEIVE THE SEPTEMBER �9, I980,
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION MINUTES. �
Mr. Oquist stated that the Community Development Comnission had reviewed the
ordinance for multiple dwellings and had made a motion recommending additions
and changes to the multiple dwelling ordinance to license condominiums. He
stated the Commission's main thrust is to require a license as a way of controlling
condominium conversion.
Mr. Boardman stated that since the Community Development Commission's last
meeting, the multiple dwelling ordinace had been changed, so it would have to
be brought back again to tfie Corianunity Development Comnission for review.

APPROVAL OF SEPTEMBER 11, 1980, HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MINUTFS: _
MOTION BY MR. HOIICK, SECONDED BY MR. PRFu�22E, TO APPROVE THE SEPTEMBER 11, 1980,
HOUSING & REDEVEIAPMENT AIITHORITY MINUTES.
Mr. Commers stated that on page 2 of the minutes, second paragraph, second
to last line, the word "shouldn't" should be changed to "should".
Mr. Correners stated that on page 4 of the minutes, the Authority made a motion
to adopt the definition of "Large family", but the definition was nat written
into the minutes. Mr, Boardman stated that definition should be inserted under
Item B,"Receive Memo #80-93 - Definition of 'Large Family Ownership Program "'.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE� CHAIRPERSON COMMERS DECLARED THE MINUTES
APPROVED AS AMENAED.
I. CENTER CITY REDEVELOPMEN7
A. Proposal for Phase IlI Development
Mr. Boardman stated he would like to have I.M.I, present their
proposal. Then the Authority shouid discuss what direction they
take with Phase III.
Mr. Doyscher stated that he and Mr. Boardman had met a couple of
times to talk about where they were going on alternatives. Mr. Boardman
and he had met with the City Manager, and the feeling expressed by the
City Manager was that Phase I should be done prior to anything e1se,
hecause he was concerned, basically, that the citizens of this community
would see things that they felt were in relatively good condition by
comparison being taken down.
HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETING, OCTOBFR 9, 1980 PAGE 2
Mr. Doyscher stated that they had this discussion with Mr. Remmen.
After the meeting with the City Manager, they communicated to
Mr. Remmen that the City is still very concerned about a piece of
land that is substandard and the politics of letting that land stand
and moving into another area.
Mr. Commers asked Mr. Remmen to go over I.M.I.'s proposal, which the
members of the Authority had received prior to the meeting.
Mr. Remmen stated that Gary MacKenzie, his architect and associate,
was also at the meeting. He stated they have discussed some changes
with Mr, Boardman regarding the possibility of adding some square
footage. He stated they have a layout of the proposed shopping center,
and they gave copies of this layout to the Authority. He stated that
in the interest of increasing taxable return to the City (which would be
in I.M.I.'s interest also because it would increase their tax flow),
they felt they could even expand upon this.
Mr. MacKenzie stated this proposal was very simi7ar to what they hae
proposed some months ago. They have slightly increased the square
footage and, in talking with Mr. Boardman that evening, they can see
that they will probably be reducing the amount of parking that occurs
on the oeriphery of both University and'Mississippi Streets. Sa, where
they.say they are going to have 575 parking spaces, they prob�bly wi'71
have somewhat less than that. Previously, they had reflected a net
renta6ie area of 86,0�0 sq, ft. in the booklet, and right now they
are at 90-92,000 sq, ft. They don't know how the 20-30 ft. setback
along these two streets is going to affect them in terr,is of parking
and square foot ratio, but they wi71 work to a very tight ratio and
try to increase the square footage of the shopping center itself.
Mr. Prairie asked what had been thought of for the pedestrian traffic
back and forth across Mississippi Street.
Mr. MacKenzie stated they have not provided any pedestriari access in
their proposal. They could put in some kind of pedestrian overpass,
but it would probably not be used, so it has to be something on-grade
with maybe a stop sign or a controlled light.
Mr. Boardman stated they may be able to go with a stop sign or a push-
button light for pedestrian cross traffic.
Mr. MacKenzie stated they had recommended very strongly at their last
presentation that the City consider some type of shuttle bus service
that would service the whoie area.
Mr. Commers asked Mr. Remmen to review the cost figures with the
Authority.
HOUSING & REDEVELO�MENT AUTHORITY MEETIN6, OCTOBER 9, 1980 PAGE 3
Mr. Remmen stated that the proposal has 6een expanded since these
cost figures were submitted to Mr. Doyscher and Mr. Boardman, so these
cost figures are now outdated. 5ince then, they have decided to
increase the square footage of the shopping center which will increase
the tax return and also increase the cash flow on the center. They
are looking at 117,000 sq. ft. for the shopping center with 95,000 sq. ft.
net rentable.
Mr.Coiraners stated that in Mr. Remmen's letter dated September 21, 19�0,
Mr. Remmen had talked about a purchase agreement for a cash sale price
of $1,250,000. What did ihat refer to?
Mr. Remmen stated that was the asking price that Mr. Levy has agreed
to give them a six-month option on the land which includes everything
except ihe Dairy Queen, the car wash, Standard Oil, and the Northern
Lights Euilding=-total site, approximately 8.7 acres.
Mr. Boardman stated the City would have to be involved in the acquisition
of those four buildings.
Mr. Boardman stated they have done a computer run on the estimated real
estate taxes, and they feel they are pretty accurate at $1.00/sq. ft.
On 107,000 sq, ft, they are looking at an annual tax of around $110,000.
By adding additiunal square footage, this will be adding additional tax.
Mr. Doyscher asked Mr. Re�nen if he fe7t this was a good concept plan
and that there is a market for it.
Mr. Rerranen stated he felt it is a good concept plan and that there is
a market for it.
Mr. Doyscher asked Mr. Remmen if Mr. Remmen felt he was personally
capable of arranging interim and long term financing on an industrial
revenue bond level.
Mr. Remmen stated that was a very difficult question. In talking to
Miller-Schroeder, there is no industrial revenue bond market. He
stated he is assuming this will change and he will be able to arrange
industrial revenue bond financing.
Mr. Doyscher stated he was referring to Mr. Remmen's own personal credit
position in terms of equity financing, Did Mr. Remmen feel he would be
strong enough to do that?
Mr. Remnen stated they would not be strong enough to do it as a
separate entity at this point. They generally bring in a partner of
substantial strength, and it will be subject to their bringing in
that kind of partner to obtain all necessary financing. At this time,
he has two equity partners who are willing to go with him.
HOUSING & REDEVELOPMEPlT AUTHORITY MEETING; OCT�BER 9 1980 PAGE 4
Mr. Commers asked Mr. Boardman to run ov�r the economic side of the
picture.
Mr. Boardman stated that on any development that would go on this
praperty, if they are talking co�nercial development on the west side
of University based on their redevelopment plan, they are talking about
a maximum lot coverage of around 107-117,QOQ sq. ft. 7he rate of
taxing on commercial is different than office space, and any develop-
ment on this land is going to need he7p from Village Green. He wanted
the Authority to understand that. In going over this, unless t�ey go
with samething thatis more tax equity to the City like of{ice space,
they are talking more in the neighborhood of $2.00/sq. ft. instead of the
$7.00/sq. ft. they geC for commercial. If they put office on the west
side of University, it is going to kiiT their possibilities of putting
office on the east side oF University. So, if they are talking about
retail at all, they are talking about assistance from Village Green.
Mr. Boardman stated that one thing they have not done and could do on
the computer runs is an income ba7ance.
Mr. Commers stated he thought Mr. Boardman should make that analysis
and put it into a bookTet for the Authority before their next meeting,
so the,ALthority can have that information availa6le and know what the
alternat.ives are: ,A lot of consideration is going to have to be given
as to the direction tfie Ruthority takes on this, and they aiso need to
7ook at ii from the point of view of maximizing the bonding with invest-
ment on Viliage Green.
Mr. Commers asked Mr. Remmen what Mr. Remmen was loaking for from the
Authority and whatlhis timing was,
Mr. Remmen stated the sooner they can obtain a letter of intent to move
ahead from the Authority, the sooner they can exercise the option with
Mr. Levy and get leases and obtain financing. They would like to break
ground in the spring of 1981 and are looking at 6-months lead time.
Mr. Prieditis stated it was his concern fihat since there was no physical
relationship between the clusters of buildings with the busy traffic
artery running through the center, he would like to see some attempi
made at a common tie a°chitecturaliy--some kind of visual recall.
Mr. MacKenzie stated they were thoroughly in agreement with this.
Mr. Boardman asked what the Authority's position would be on the office
facility and what Mr. Remmen's position would be on developing an
office during or at the same period of time that a shopping center is
being developed. They still have to look at the poiitical Togistics
of developing across the street prior to the time they develop structures
that are substantially in worse shape than those across University.
HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETING OCTOBER 9, 1980 PAGE 5
Mr. Commers stated thatis something the Authority will have to
discuss.
Mr. Soardman stated that if it is decided that this has to be done,
would Mr. Remmen be willing tb work with the City on it?
Mr. Remmen stated this has been discussed, and they would be wi7ling
to move ahead with the office building and the shopping center. They
have the capacity to work on both projects at the same time.
Mr. Remmen asked when he could anticipate some action from the NRA.
Mr. Commers stated the Authority would discuss it further that evening,
and, if necessary, a special meeting would be scheduled. The Authority
may want to getadditional input from other sources within the City.
He stated they would have Mr. Boardman contact Mr. Rerranen with a day
or so to let him know what the Authority has decided.
Mr. Comners thanked Mr. Remmen and Mr. MacKenzie f.or coming to the
meeting.
1.
114. "
ves°
Mr. Boardman stated that the Authority had asked him to lay out
some development strategy. He stated there were so many options,
he could not possibly cover them all in meino form. So, he had
started looking at three alternatives based on a concensus that the
redevelopment plan that was initially developed in the beginning
was a good plan. This memo was strictly for the Authority's
information and was to be used as a starting point for discussion.
Mr. Commers stated he would like to have some more time to look
over the memo more closely before discussing it in any great
depth.
Mr. Commers asked Mr. Boardman for his suggestions regarding
the I.M.I. proposal and the other things discussed that evening.
Mr. Boardman stated he felt if the Authority gives Mr. Remmen
the go ahead on the project similar to what they did with Joint
Venture Oevelopers, I.M.I. can get the market decision going, and
the decision process for the Authority is not going to come before
March or April of1981. Ne has always felt that redevelopment in
any phase is going to spark other development. He felt it is much
better for them to go with something that they know is sound
development and is going to put something in the City, because
they have time to hold on other development. The way the
Christenson property is right now, he feTt they would be much
better off developing first and then taking the Christenson building
down, because it is a detriment to any improvement they would ever
want to make.
HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORIZY MEETING, OCTOBER 9, 198� PAGE 6
Mr. Commers declared a ten-minute break at 9:15 p.m.
Mr. Commers asked Mr. Boardman what the Authority should consider
at this point with I.M.I.
Mr. Boardman stated he would like to see the Authority take an
action in the form of a letter of intent to allow Mr. Remmen to
do a marketing analysis, This wovld not harm the Authority to
a17ow I.M.I. to go ahead with their analysis. He stated that
prior to the time the Authority gives Mr. Remmen the go-ahead,
the Authority needs to make a decision on what they want to do
with Phase I. They have to decide whether thev want to tear the
structures down in Phase I,
Mr. Commers suggested that the Authority give Mr. Remmen the go•-
ahead with the Authority having a 90-day option in which to
determine whether or not he is tied in on Phase I also.
Mr. Doyscher suggested that the Authority instruct Mr. Boardman
and himself to draft a letter to NJr. Remmen for the Authority's
approval,much as was done for Joirit Venture .Developers, that
specifies timittg and conditions+Mr^. Remmer must meet.
Mr. Corcaners stated he was saying that one bf the conditions should
be that the Authority have an option for a ceriain period of time
in which to determine whether they want to tie Mr. Rermnen into
Phase I also.
MOTION BY hpt. pRIEDITIS, SECONDED BY MR. PRAIRIE, TO SNSTRUCT
MR. BOARDMAN AND MR. DDYSCHER TO DRAFT A LETTER TO MR. REMMEN
OF IMS (5IMILAR TO THE LETTER SENT TO JOINT VENTURE DEVE7APERS}

THE MOTIDN CARRIED UNANZMOU5LY. . �
6. Purchase of Brunkow Music Building
Mr. Commers asked if a purchase price had been agreed upon with
Kerry Elder.
Mr. Boardman stated that Ms. Elder accepted the City's offer of
$115,000, He stated he is meeting with Mr. Herrick the following
week to draw up the purchase agreement on the building. He stated
he thought one thing they should look for is a contract for deed
with full prepayment provisions withoui any kind of penalties.
�
HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETING, OCTOBER 9, 1980 PAGE 7
C.
Q
Mr. Boardman stated that would probably be the best way to go, then
they can close on the property and use the tax increment mon�es they
have in the bank right now for purchase and for initial payments on
the property. At any point in time when they sell bonds, they can
close out on the p-operty.
Purchase of Standard Oil Company
Mr. Boardman stated the same thing should be done with the 5tandard
Oil Company as was talked about for the purchase of Brunkow Music.
He stated he has not.� tten any response back from Standard Oil on
the purchase price. Ne stated he felt from the initial conversations
with Standard Oil that the $80,000 is going to be acceptable. He
stated he would try to contact Standard Oil soon and would give the
Authority another status report at the next meeting.
Current Status of Christenson Deve7opment
Mr. Boardman stated the final option on the Christenson building
is done in April of 1981. The City either buys or loses their option
on it. There are no more extensions on the option. He felt the
property should have6een purchased a long time ago. He stated that
at the �uthority's November meeting, the Authority should put together
a package to go to City Council askir,g for bonds to purchase `he
Christenson building.
III, LAR6E FAMILY PROGRAM � STATUS REPORT
Mr. Boardman stated the me large family house
construction, and is moving ahead quickly. He
they had available that they had action on is
construction will 6e started yet this winter.
IV. OTHER BUSINESS:
A. Cable TV Public Access
(Parlin's property) is under
stated the second property
ready to be closed and
At the previous meeting, Ms. Svendsen had been asked to speak with
Mr. Will Loew-Bloesser about what would be involved in using cable
TV to inform the citizens of what is transpiring with the HRA.
Mr. Commers asked Ms. Svendsen what information she had received
regarding cable TV public access.
Ms. Svendsen stated that Mr. loew-Bloesser stated he was looking
at a program time-frame of about 15 minutes. The program would not
be edited. The format that would probably be used would be where a
representative of.the HRA would be interviewed, and they would like
to do this once a month after each HRA meeting. Mr. Loew-Bloesser
had stated they could simply bring along a copy of the NRA agenda to
go over and could talk a little about what had transpired at the
meeting.
HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETIyG, OCTOBER 9, 1980 PAGE 8
Mr. Commers stated he felt the Authority has an obligation to
inform the public of what they are doing. He asked if Ms. Svendsen
would talk to Mr. Loew-Bloesser again and tell him the Authority,
as a whole, the Executive Director, and one or two others would be
willing to have about a 30-minute program giving an initial summary of
where the Authority is at now and an initial update on all the
programs. Tfien the Authority could answer questions. This program
could be done in December or January.
Ms. Svendsen stated she would talk to Mr. Loew-Bloesser again
about these suggestions and would report back to the Authority in
November.
B. Industrial Revenue Bond Request for Office Construction
Mr. �oyscfier stated tfiat �e City Nanager has asked him to go to the
City Council meeting on October 20 to give a presentation regarding
the Paschke office p°oposal. He stated that City participation is
being requested in the form of industrial revenue bonds for office
construction, and it is the City Manager's position that by deveioping
office space on 73rd & University, it could have a negative impact on
the program approach on Center City an�, therefore, the City shcuid;
not participate in issuing indLStria'`revenue bcnds. The City Manager
has asked him to present that point oi view to the City CounciT on
October 20. Mr. Doyscher stated he was bringing this up before the
HRA, because he thought that maybe the HRA should be taking a position
on this and not himself.
Mr, Boardman stated the question is: If the City Council does pass
an industriaT revenue bond request, does the HRA feel it is counter-
productive to what their intent is for the development of Center City?
Mr. Prieditis stated that maybe the Authority could state that this
office development does not appear that it would enhance or help whai
they are thinking for the Center City project. But, he_thouqht it was
up to the City CounciT to make that decision.
Ms, Svendsen stated that if Mr. Paschke can go ahead and buiTd this
office building anyway and the City does not issue the industrial
revenue bonds, it could Q-eate hard feelings.
Mr. Boardman asked the Authority if they would want to tell the City
Council that it was the intent of the City Council and the HRA to
develop office in the Center City area, and the Autharity feeis that
careful consideration should be given to the fact that this proposal
is going to be cotm ter-productive to this intent.
Mr. Cortmers stated that Mr. Doyscher couid appear before the City
Council and just give the facts as to what the issuance of 9ndustrial
revenue bonds wii] have on the Cen#er Gity Devel�pment.
HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEE7IN6, OCT06ER 9, 1980 PAGE 9

CHAIRMAN HARRIS DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
1. PUBLIC HEARING: REQUEST FOR A SPECIAL USE PERMIT, SP #80-11, BY
JAMES H. GILBE TSON: 7o allow an out-patient counseling c il n c with
sma adjacent parking lot on Parcel 1100 in the North Half of Section 11,
per Section 205.051, 3, f, of the Fridley City Code, the same being
7599 University Ave. N.E.
MOTION BY HR. WHARTON, SECONDED BY MR. TREUBNFELS, TO OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING
ON SPECIAL USE PERMIT, SP #80-11, by JAMSS H. GILBERTSON.
UPON A VOICE VOTE� ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRMAN HRRRIS DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING
OPEN AT 7:42 P.M.
Mr. Boardman stated a rezoning request for this property was brought before
the Planning Commission on May 23, 7979. At that time, the rezoning request
was for CR-1 (general office building, clinic, lawyers office, retail office,
etc.). At that time, the Planning Co�nission recorronended denial of the
rezoning request, and the application was withdrawn before it went on to
City Council.
Mr. Boardman stated this time the petition is for a special use permit to use
the property as a psychiatric c7inic for out-patient family counseling.
Because the property is R-1, this type of clinic is allowed with a special use
permit in an R-1 district. The questions the Planning Commission will have to
consider are: If this clinic is allowed, even though it is with a special use
permit and can be controlled, what kind of p�ecedent would that have on the
residential district itself? Would this special use permit be a viable use
for that corner property?
d�.
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, OCTOBER 29, 1980 PAGE 2
Mr. Harris asked if the petitioner, Dr. Gilbertson, would like to make a
statement at this time.
Dr. Gilbertson stated that he is a licensed, consulting psychologist and is
a resident of Fridley. He lives at 6801 Channel Road. His practice is
largely a family practice inthe sense that he sees approximately 60% children
and 40% families or adults. His business profile is extremely low. He
thought that perhaps it was even more limited than one would expect from a
residential house being used in that fashion. He stated he had calculated
some figures for the � anning Commission to consider. From Oct. 1979 - 6ct. 1980,
he saw a total of 242 patients for one calendar year. The number of contacts
on those 242 patients were 970. He averages approximately 20-25 hours of
office work a week. The rest of his time is spent in consulting at various
agencies--Unity Hospital, Family Life Center in Anoka, North Memorial in
Golden Valley, and two hospitals farther southwest.
Dr. Gilbertson stated he bought this property with the intention of trying to
see if the City of Fridley would look favorably upon a special use permit for
a clinic operation that would have a very low profile.
Dr. Gilbertson stated he went through the entire application for the rezoning
to CR-1 and was aware that it was a contested piece of property, that there
was presented in favor of rezoning the notion that it does sit on two busy
streets and is a very noisy place for residential. He was also aware that the
Planning Cormnission had been concerned for three reasons: (1) in the City
Charter, they did not wish to spot rezone; (2) the traffic issue; and (3) there
was a good deal of neighborhood opposition in the form of a petition.
Dr. Gil6ertson stated that as the property owner, he would be using the two
bedrooms as offices no more than 25 hours a week. That averages out to less
than 8 patients a day. He schedules patients for one hour or for two hours
if he is testing a youngster. That would place the traffic at abaut 6-8 cars
a day which he did not believe was a great volume, and he did not think it
would annoy the neighborhood or cause any kind of congestion.
Dr. Gilbertson stated he grew up in the Spring Lake Park area so he knows the
area well. He would not be an absentee person. As a professional, he felt he
was bound to abide by the professional standards of conduct. Seventy-five
percent of his clients are Anoka County people, so in terms of community benefit,
in terms of the outlay of services and outreach of services to this community.
as well as other communities in Anoka County, he could say he is fairly responsive.
Dr. Gilbertson stated that from the mailing list he received from the City,
he went on a house-to-house canvass of those people who were within
250 feet of the property to solicit their questions and concerns and to explain
to them what he had in mind for the property. He stated he was p7eased in that
he did not receive the same kind of opposition or resistance that was apparently
visited upon the commercial rezoning application. He stated he had stressed
at that meeting the points he had already stressed that evening: (1) That
it would be a very low profile, (2) That he is a Fridley resident, (2) There
would be no traffic congestion, and (3) There would be no structural changes
to the building as it now exists.
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, OCTOBER 29, 1980 PAGE 3
Mr. Oquist asked Dr. Gilbertson where his office was at this time.
Dr. Gilbertson stated that he basically has three offices at this time. One
office is at his home at 6801 Channel Road, he has a very small office at
North Suburban Pediatric Clinic, and maintains some office space in the Center
for Health Assessment and Treatment in Golden Valley. He would like to
bring these together and have one central office in this area.
Mr. Boardman asked Dr. Gilbertson if he had a secretary or receptionist.
Dr. Gilbertson stated he hoped to hire a part-time secretary. He is in solo
practice with no partners and would be the primary occupant of this building.
Mr. Svanda asked Dr. Gilbertson if he planned on putting up any signs.
Dr. Gilbertson stated that, typically, he has not had to use signs before.
At his home office, he has a sign approximately 2 feet by 16 inches. He
thought he would like to have a larger sign than that on the corner where
Osborne and University intersect.
Mr. 5vanda a'sked if Dr. Gilbertson had considered any additional landscaping
around the parking rea.
Dr. Gilbertson stated that he understood that it was part of the City's
mandate that parking should not be visible from the street. He stated that
on the southern boundary of M s property that he shares with Mr. & Mrs. Blosky
there is a fence that is need of repair. That could certainly be fixed.
There is no existing fence or shrubs indicated in his drawing on the western
side of the property so that would have to be added.
Mr. Harris asked if anyone in the audience would like to speak to this item.
Mrs. Robert Blosky, 305- 76th Ave. N.E., stated Dr. Gilbertson's use of the
property was fine with them. They would like to see something go in there
as the place is beginning to run down.
Dr. Bob Wilson, 7566 - 4th St. N.E., stated he is a psychologist with the
Columbia Heights Schools. He stated the Dr. Gilbertson is widely recognized
for his work, his work is excellent, and he would be a credit for any
community. Dr. Wilson stated he is a neighbor several houses away and he
would welcome Dr. Gilbertson as a neighbor. It would be an excellent way to
use that property. He was concerned also that the property was not being used.
(Ms. Schnabel arrived at the meeting at 8:00 p.m.)
Mr, Wharton stated he lives at 6887 Channel Road and has noticed Dr.Gilbertson's
siqn. He stated that if the traffic on Osborne and University is as quiet as
it is on Channel Road, there will be no problem at all.
