HOTION BY MR. WHARTON, SECONDEB BY MR. TREUENFELS, TO OPEN THE PUBLIC XERRING ON SPfiCIAL USE PERMIT, SP N80-11� by JAMES H. GILBERTSON. pPON A VOZCE VOTE, AI,L t�OTING AYE, CHAIRMAN HARRSS DECLARED TXE PUBLIC HEAAZNG OPfiN AT 7:42 P.M. Mr. Boardman stated a rezoning request for this property was brought before the Planning Commission on May 23, 1479. At that time, the rezoning requast was for CR-1 (general office building, clinic, lawyers office, retail office, etc.). At that time, the Planning Commission recommended denial of the rezoning request, and the application was withdrawn before it went on to City Council.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. Tfie 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 permrt be a viable use for that corner property? • � PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, OCTOBER 29, 1980 PAGE 2 Mr. Harris asked ff 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 in the 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. i979 - Oct. 1980, he saw a total of 242 patients for one calendar year. The number of contacts on those 242 patients were 970. Me averages approximately 2Q-25 hoars 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. 6ilbertson stated he bought this property with the intention of trying to see if the City of Fridley would ]ook favorably upon a special use permit for a clinic operation that would have a very low profile. Dr. Gilbertson stated he went thrrough 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 �he P]anning Commtssion 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. Gilbertson 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 pTace the traffic at about 6-8 cars a day which he did not believe was a great volume, and he did not think it wauld 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 fe1C 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 canmunity benefit, in terms of the outlay of services and outreach of services to this communi�y. 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 an a house-to-house'canvass of those people who were within 250 feet of the property to soTicit their questions and concerns and to explain to them what he had in mind for the property. He stated he was pleased in that he did not receive the same kind of opposition or resistance that was apparent7y visited upon the commercial rexoning application. Ne stated he had stressed at tbat meeting the points he had already stressed that evening: {1) That it wouTd 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 ane central office in this area. Mr. Boardman asked Dr. 6ilbertson 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 ami 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 e 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. Svanda a'sked if Dr. Gilbertson had considered any additional landscaping around the parkingarea. 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 � s property that he shares with Mr. & Mrs. Slosky there is a fence that is need of repair. That could eertainly 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 dawn. 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 neighbar 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.6ilbertson's sign. He stated that if the traffic on Osborne and University is as quiet as it is on Ghan�el Road, there will be no problem at all. PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, OCTOBER 29, T980 PAGE 4 MOTION BY MR.

Springbrook Nature Center Foundation letter Chairµerson Hughes declared the agenda approved as amended. 1. DIRECTOR'S REPORT: A. Nature Center Progress Report Dr. Boudreau showed the Commission pictures of the Nature Center . building that were taken about two weeks ago. He also showed the Commission some polaroid pictures of the "Sounds of Life Music, Youth for Christ" group who volunteered about 10 hours of their time to lay sod on the em6ankments of the nature center building. He stated they are a very hard working, conscientious group, and this is the second time they have volunteered their time. Last year, they did a spring clean-up Job at the nature center. Dr. Boudreau stated he felt this group should be recagnized by the Comnission for their efforts. He stated that Mr. St. Clair was also writing them a letter of thanks and was inviting them back to take part in the opening ceremonies of the nature center building. He stated that the City of Fridley was very fortunate to have the interest of a group such�s this. s.� PARKS & RECREATION COMMISS{OV MEETING, OCTOBER 15; 1980 PAGE 2.

Boudreau stated the outside coat of stucco is being put on the building. The ke)7 wall has arrived and will be put up within the week, so the building appears to be progressing well. Dr. Boudreau stated that, as the Commission was aware, he had written a letter to Metropolitan Council requesting tnat they amend the City's present contract upward in the amount of $7,000 to cover the c�st of a roll-down securi�y screen on the front window of the building. This request has gone through the Parks & Open Space Commissian and will be going tu the full Metropolitan Council for approva7 on October 23. He stated he understood there should not be any problem in getting this request approved. N.S.P. Easement at North Park Status Dr. Bo�.idreau stated that in ,luly, he had informed the Commission-that NSP wanted an easement through North Park, NSP had been informe�`tf�at before the City would even consider it, the fallowing four stipulations must be met: (1) NSP would get an easement onty; (2) NSP wou7d have to buy additiona7 land in equal size adjoining North Park; (3) All poles would have to be lined up so the visuai was not disrupted; and, (4) A large sum of money for the right of easement would have to be given to the City. Dr. Boudreau stated that the City Manager has been negotiating with NSP. These negotiations have now come to the point where NSP has consented to all four stipulations, and NSP has sent a letter stating that they would line up all the poles, grant an equal amount of land on the south side of the existing North Park land, the easement that would be granted wou3d be reverted back to the City for nature use, and that the City would receive around $121,000 for granting the easement. He stated no decision has yet been made by the City. Dr. Boudreau stated that if the City finds this desirable and if they want to stay with the four stipulations, they will have to get an appraisal of the land taken for easement, an appraisal of the replacement land, and write up a complete report of the visual impact on all the alter- natives looked at. All this material must go to State Planning, who in turn will review the plans and either r�ake a positive or negative recommendation to the Federal people. So, it is still at the point of expioration as ta what the reaction from the State Planning people might be and what the reaction of the Federal people might be to allowing a power line to cross park land that has been purchased with LAWCON funds. PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING, OCTOBER l5, 1980 PAGE 3 Ms. Hughes stated she felt it was very important for the Commission members to see the maps. She stated that Mr. Boardman and Mr. St. Clair made a presentation to the Springbrook Nature Center Foundation. They had asked the Foundation what their feelings were about the trade of land and the location of the poles. She stated she thought it was the Foundation's feeling that thisras acceptable and they urged the City to continue negotiations. She had told the Foundation that how they felt about this particular proposal would be an important concider- ation to the Parks & Recreation Commission. She stated this proposal has not gone to the Planning Commission yet, and she felt the Parks & Recreation Corrmission should look at it. Ms. Hughes asked Dr. Boudreau to obtain the maps for the Commission members to look at, and they could make comments later in the meeting under "Old Business". C. Annual Horseshoe Club Report Dr. Boudreau stated he had received the Annual Horseshoe Club Report He stated they have moved the city horseshoe courts from Commons Park to Locke Park on one end of the west parking lot. The majority of the work in putting in the courts was accomplished by the Horseshoe Club itself,;:, The Club has been so thrilled with the eight courts put in in the spring that•they had requcst�d eight more at the other end of the parking lot. So, they now have a complex of 16 courts all fenced in. In their annual report, the Horseshoe Club expresses their thanks to the Parks & Recreation Department. Dr. Boudreau stated he had brought this to the Commission's attention,. because it is one of the clubs the City helps. The Horseshoe Club's membership is 68. They have expanded and now have a women's league that started this year. They have a children's league starting, so they are continuing to grow. The Club is trying to bring in the National Horseshoe Tournament to Fridley, and they would be doing all the volunteer work for that tournament. D. Cur]ing Club Proposal Dr. Boudreau stated that Mr. Dave Roth came into his office with two other gentlemen representing the Arden Hills Curling Club. They had a facility in Arden Hills, but this facility was sold and the lease on this facility with the new owner has been cancelled. He was informed that the Curling Club is looking for a new home, and they were approaching the City of Fridley to see<if there was any public land available that they may lease from the City to build a 75' x 185' block building with a tin roof to be used for a curling club facility. Dr, Boudreau stated the Club has their own ice-making equipment, and they would do all their own maintenance. They would use the facility from November through March. The months from April to November, they have stafed verbally that the City could use the facility for whatever the City wanted. During the months they are in operation, the City PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING, OCTOBER 15, 1980 PAGE 4 could use the facility for curling classes. The club only requires the facility five nights a week. Dr. �oudreau stated this was only a proposal. The ctub in with a written proposal before any action is taken. will inform the Co�nission as he gets more information. CHAIRPERSON'S REPORT: A. Planning Corrrnission Actions must come He stated he Ms. Hughes stated that the Planning Corimission has looked at a roposal from Medtronic to construct a building (addition to the complex� just east of Old Centra] from their current locati�n and it will be connected by an overpass.- She stated it is the site where there used to be a pole yard, and in their investigations, they have Qnded up doing some testing for creosote on that location. They have dealt with the Pollution Control Agency. Ms. Hughes stated that the Planning Commission and City Council approved an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) prepared on that particular part of the property which indicated that there was not a great deal of concern on the creosote that mighi be�.�n that �and at this time. The places where they identified-the ��ost`creosote �roblems were probably going to be under the parking lot or the landscaped areas and not under the building. On that basis, the City is accepting the EIS which will go to the Environmental Quality Board for its consideration and will go before the PCA Board on October 2S. Ms. Hughes stated it appeared to her that there might be some water contamination into Rice Creek from the Onan property and the new Medtronic property--highly unlikely from the Medtronic property, but highly possible from the Onan property because of the hfgh concentrations on the Onan property. Those are some distance away, and the PCA is reasonably comfortable with it. Ms, Hughes stated she aw this as being some threat to the water. Fhe Commission has some responsibility for this, because of how they might expect to use the Creek in recreational areas or in parks. She stated a lot depends on how they feel about pentachlorophenol and creosote and its decompositions products and how dangerous that really is. The EIS prepared by Medtronic for the City of Fridley did not mention the creosote problem in this particular area. Under "Otfier Environmental Affects", they were saying there were not any and they were really minimizing what that problem might be. That was the deficiency the Planning Commission thought should have been dealt with. Ms: Nughes stated it was something the Comr+ission shou]d keep an eye on. PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING, OCTOBER 15, t980 PAGE 5 B. �ringbrook Nature Center Founcation Letter Ms. Hughes stated that the Springbrook Nature Center Foundation is concerned about the charges made in Frank Liebl's campaign literature. They intend to write a letter to the editor and have asked the Parks & Recreation Commission if the Commission would write a similar letter or write a joint letter with them. She stated she felt the Commission should respond to some of the charges and asked how the Commission members felt about this. Should they respond as a comnission or as individuals? � Mr. Kondrick stated he felt the Commission should respond to these charges. Ms. Seeger stated she felt there were some charges directed at this Commission about placing priorities; for instance, letting the neighborhood parks run down, and �at kind of thing. She did not feel they have let the neighborhood parks run down. If anything, they have added to them. She stated that in light of the fact that they seem to have difficulty letting the community know they care, that North Park is a nature center, that they have, in fact, acknowledged that Spring- brook Nature Center Foundation has done all the Foundation said it would do, and now the City has reassumed the nature center as a recreation they feel is vital in this town, she thought the Commission ought to respond to these charges in some way. Mr. Allen stated he felt the Commission should not get involved in po7itics, but he stated he would support the Commission if they felt it was important to respond with a letter. Mr. Young stated Mr. Liebl's article did disturb him. It made him feel as though their time on the fDmmission was being wasted. He felt it would be more important for the Commission to respond as a commission, rather than as individuals. MOTION BY MR. YOUNG, SECONDED BY MR.

PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING, OCTOBER T5, 1980 PAGE 6 3. OLD BUSINESS: A. Citizens' Advisory Corconittee Appointments and the Committee's.Charge Ms. Hughes stated that the �llowing name sh�uld be added to the iist of Advisory Committee Candidates: �illis Unkie - Ms, Hughes defined the charge for the Advisory Committee as follows: 1. To survey the types of facilities that cauld be in the building. 2. To survey the � rrounding area tmore than Fridley) to see what kinds of �cilities are currently provided, both private and public. 3. To do a survey of the population by neighborhood in the City by age group and other parameters appropriate, so that those'things can be related to the kinds of choices that could be made. 4.a.To come up with recommendations on what appears should be chosen to be in this building, b.To come up with suggestions on how to achieve that and -whether or not they need further professional help--hire a consultant, architect, etc. 5. To give some kind of outline for timing and financing-- the fund9ng sources available. Ms. Hughes stated that is what she saw as the charge to the Committee She stated she'would like to appoint Dan Allen as Chairperson of this correnittee, because of his experience in recreation. Other commission �mbers can visit and participate, but should be ex-officio and not vate. Mr. Allen stated he would feel more comfortable having a co-chairperson from this comtnission. It would be good to have someone from the Commission in the eVent he could not attend a meeting, and it would be hetpfu7 to have another point of � ew when reporting on the Committee's activities to the Commission. Mr. Kondrick stated he agreed with Mr. Allen. He stated he would be happy to do this and help with the workload and participate in the Comnittee. MOTION BY�MR. YOUNG, SECONDED DY MS.

PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION MEE7ING, OCTOBER 15 1980 PAGE 7 Ms. Hughes stated"she would write a letter to be sent to the appointees stating that they have been appointed to the Committee and including the charge. Mr. Young recommended that the meetings of the Committee be prior to the Parks & Recreation Comnission meetings so that the Commission would know what is happening right away without a 3-4 week gap. B. NSP Easement � Parks & Recreation Commission Comments Dr. Boudreau showed the Comnission members the maps of the proposed NSP easement through North Park. Ms. Hughes stated that NSP is proposing the land on the south end of the park as the "swapped" land. Ms. Seeger stated she objected to that, as she did not think the land on the south end of the park was of the quality that the land on the east side was. Ms. Sporre stated she would like to speak on this subject. She stated she aiso objected to the site 6eing proposed by NSP. She stated the nature center can gain or lose from this proposal, depending upon the quality of land given and the amount af money. She would propose another site. �With any site around the park, they could gain screening, so the argument of screening is not valid. She feit that the area proposed by NSP was severely distr�rbed. That �land has had a tremendous amount of abuse. She felt there were other areas that were more attrac- tive for the City in trade for the easement. They would gain a lot more along the east side of the park than they would on the south side. They would gain the possibility of providing a screening from the lights and traffic of business. On the weekends, industry has a lower level of activity than the commerce that would probably go on along University Avenue. Also, it is the responsibility of commercial deve7opers to provide screening. The land on the east side provides the Creek option. In the Don Fondrick Report prepared for the City of Fridley, in evaluat- ing this site, Mr. Fondrick suggested that the ponding of the creeks can offer added wildlife amenities, backwater ponding for ducks, muskrats, etc. This site also offers the opportunity to annex another recreation property.which is the1MCA property. Ms. Hughes stated that each of the Commission members should walk back and look at this property, because th? Commission will be asked for their input on this proposal in the future. Ms'. Sporre urged the Comnission membews to review the Don Fondrick Report on this land. PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING; OCTOBER 15, 1980 PAGE 8 4. OTHER BUSINESS: Ms. Sporre stated she would tike to ask the Parks & Recreat'ion Commission the following questions: As they see it, does the Co�nission feel the Springbrook Nature Center Foundation should have an bn-going funding base that is local, county> or regional? Does the Cvrtonission feel the Metropolitan Council sees Springbrook Nature Center as a local park? Does Anoka County see Springbrook Nature Center as a local park? Does the Comnission see Springbrook Nature Center as a local park? Will the Nature Center serve ali four school districts in Fridley, which include the cities of Columbia Heights, Spring Lake Park, and Coon Rapids? Or are we going to be just looking at a District 14 facility? If we are thinking of cover9ng all four school districts, geographi- cally coming from Columbia Heights ta Isanti, in the Corrmission's-�. mind, dnes that make the Nature Center regiona.l for a.funding �ase3 Is the Nature Center being recognized in any of the other agenc9es' comprehensive plans; for example, the County Comprehensive Plan or the Metropo7itan Comprehensive Plan? Ms. Sporre stated shefad been advised that there was an outdoor learning center included in the Anaka County Parks Plan. Is it in the Plan or is it not? Did Fridley approve.it or did they not? In approving the Joint Powers Agreement, what is the Comnission's understanding of that? Would Fridley approve it if it were proposed since there is such a very short time in the review process? She felt it was going to be very difficult for this Commission to respond to any kind of proposal of the public. What was the Commission's position on that? Is that facility in the County Gomprehensive Park Plan? Ms, Hughes stated that Ms. Sporre should write these questions down, and the Commission will haveta have some time to think about them and get answers to them, particularly in terms of the questions of the Nature Center in North Park that was in the original Anoka County Master Plan for the Trail and is not there now. That needs to be clarified. Ms. Hughes stated that, regarding the Rice Creek-West Regional Trail Master Plan, there were some changes from what she understood was in the Master Plan that went through the hearings and which had been submitted to the Metropo7itan Council. She stated she had asked if Mr. Dave Torkildson Director of the Anoka County Parks & Recreation Department, could attend a Comnission meeting to tell the Commission what the schedule is, what his intentions are,and what the changes are. Mr. 7prki�dson had sent this copy � PARKS & RECREATION COMPQISSION MEETIN6, OCTOBER 15�1980 PAGE 9 of the Rice Creek-West Regional Master Plan and will apparently come at some time in the future if the Commission has further questions. Dr. Boudreau stated he thought that a lot of the questions raised by Ms. Sporre should be addressed to the County Board, rather than this Cot�nission, because it is the County's Plan. Ms. Seeger stated they need to ask Mr. Torki.ldson when this Plan was approved by the County and when it was approved by Metropolitan Council. Is this the complete, final draft? She also did not think the Plan was very envirnnmentally conscious. There were sane environmental questions. The Comnissicn members agreed they would like to have Mr.f�rkildsgn attend a Commission meeting to answer questions regarding the Rice Creek-West Regionat Trail Master Plan.

CENTER CITY REDEVELOPMENT A. Receive Memo #80-127 Regarding �I.M.t. Development Rights for Phase III Chairperson Commers declared Memo #80-127 received into the record. He stated that the Authority was to authorize approval of this letter to the Executive Director for forwarding on to Jerry Remmen, President of :International Multi-�Housing, Inc. (I.t4.I.) Mr. Boardman stated there was one correction that has to be made in the letter. Mr. Remnen wants the development proposal to be under Contract Development Corporation, rather than I.M.I. Contract Uevelopment Corporation is a new company set up just for this project. It will be set up w�ch the equit,y partners. Mr. Boardman stated he did not see any problem with this change. Mr. Prairie asked how they would know to what level the equity partners will participate. Mr. Boardman referred to #4 in the letter: "That C.D.C. be aware that this selection is based upon the inclusion of an equity partner prior to final plan acceptance. This eq�tity partner must have approval of the HRA." Mr. Boardman stated that before they get any kind of disposition documents, they will want a full disclosure of who the equity partners are. . �-- SPECIAL HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETING, OCTOBER 23 1980 PAGE 2 Mr. Boardman stated the Authority should note q6: "That the HRA shall have 90 days in which to request a development proposal for C.D.C. for office development on Phase I." He stated the Authority had indicated at their last meeting that they wanted this included. Mr. Prairie asked if there would be a reply back to the Authority by Mr. Remrnen after Mr. Rerianen receives the letter. His concern was how the Authority was going to know--say 30 days from now--if any- thing was happening. Mr. Commers stated that Mr. Prairie had a very good point and suggested that at the bottom of the �tter, Mr. Boardman inctude the fol7owing statement: "If you agree to these terms, please sign the copy and return it to me. We would also appreciate your keeping us advised on your progress.° Mr, Boardman stated that he would do that. MOTZON BY MR. HOUCK, SECONDED BY MR.

He asked Mr. Boardman to explain these computations to the Authority. Mr. Boardman stated they have set up a new computer run. They established the annual amount of tax increment they will be getting out of a project. They set that up and set up a bond balance so that it all balances out to what the yearly investment or yearly payment could be. Then they run 6ack•Nards and come up with a bond amouni so that everything balances out and all of the tax increment monies they get in go to pay off the bond. They have run that over a period of 20 years and have done it with both Village Green and the Gomnerciat Center. C. Memo #130 Regarding Discussion with the HRA Consultant for Center City Mr. Boardman stated that Mr. Doyscher had been unable to attend the October 20 City Council meeting regarding the iss�ance of industrial revenue bonds for aEroposed office structure at 73rd & University Ave., so Mr. Boardman had written this memo to the City Council.

Cable TV Pubtic Access Ms. Svendsen stated she had again talked to Mr. Witl Loew-Bloesser about the HRA having a 30-minute program on cabie TV. She stated that Mr. Loew-Bloesser thought a 30-minute introductory program seemed like a good idea, especially if they involved all the members of the HRA. They could p�ovide a host or one of the members of the HRA could act as a host. He had stated that slides are easier to use than pictures and he suggested not more than five minutes of slides used all at one time, rather than interspersed throughout the program. Ms. Svendsen stated that Mr. Loew-8]oesser's advice to the HRA was to be concise. He had stated the entire procedure for taping.the program would take about two hours. The HRA could set up an appoint- ment anytime from noon to 9 p.m. He thought January sounded fine, and the NRA could contact him to set up a date. Mr: Commers stated this rtem should be put on the November agenda. He asked if Staff could give the Authority-some ideas, and they could then discuss what they wanted to do at the November meeting. �.

EDINA, MINNESOTA 55435 � INDUSTRIAL PROPERTIES VOL.3 N0.2 SEPTEMBER, 1980 IN DUSTRIAL LAN D-A RECENT SU RVEY Coldwell Banker's industrial marketing staff recentty completed a study of in- dustrial tartd activity in the Twin Cities metropolitan area. This study included a survey of the actual land sales over the past two years, as well as ari over- view of current land-a:-z's!abili?y'and asking prices. Our objective in conduc- ting this study was to provide us with the information necessary to trace re- cent trends in industrial land activity, and to enable us to answer frequently- posed questions regarding !and availability and prices. The intent of this article is to share with you some of our findings and conclusions. The survey included analyses of over 85 recent land sales in sixteen municipalities located in all four quadrants of the metropoiitan area. We restricted this study to sales of ful- ly improved industrial land parcels. Alf By Thomas Chandler & John Laurent parcels surveyed were properly zoned for industrial use, platted, and improv- ed with sewer and water lines in, as well as with roads providing access to the parcels. Not included in the survey were tracts of raw, or unimpro�ad land whi�h are not readity nsahle for a singte industriai user in their present state. The results of this study (Exhibit 1) showed land prices and sales activity ranging widely throughout the areas surveyed. Prices were seen to range from a low of $.36 per square foot io the oulermost suburban markets to a high of $2.50 in the core cities. As land has become increasingly scarce in the core city and first-ring suburban areas, sales activity has shifted to the second-ri�g suburban areas. The most active area over the past two years has been the northwest quadrant of the suburban Minneapolis area, followed by the Exhibit 1 SUMMARY OF LAND SALES Average� Pareel Size Area .

Activity in St. Paul proper has been strong, largely as a result of the new development ac- tivitfes of the St. Paui Port Authority. The majority of the Minneapoiis land sales in our study involved the Min- neapolis Housing and Redevelopment Authority as a catalyst — purchasing, clearing and recycling the land into more productive industrial use. What facTOrs Contribute to maliing one area of a city more desirable than others forindustrialland users? Such factors as proximity to the core cities, access to major freeway arteries, local population make-up and density, and availability and cost of land are obvious answers to this question. A major con- sideration which directly affects price is the building coverage factor.ln our Land Summary (Exhibit 2) you will notice a significant difference between the coverage allowed in the core cities and that allowed in the suburban areas. The higher core city land price may be offset significantly because less land is required for the same size building. A less obvious cansideration relates to development of induslria� park set- tings. Such settings, requiring a high degree of planning and cooperation between developers and municipa- lities, have proved to yield the highest land values in industrial markets around the U.S. The Twin Cities have proven no exceplion, and the sales ac- ttvity and increasing prices in the fastest growing Twin City areas are due in large part to development of �ew, high quality industrial parks. . .,,.,.,,,,r_„T„T- -�'-.»,..-�--•. _.,,+.«.�,-R.�-�-.-�-,<� ....,-e.�- . . .. . . .�. x.F.^^^^.-.�.,-. � .:. .�... ".. - • '; . (Continued from page 1) One can conclude from our study that demand for industrial land remains strong in the metro area. According to the Metropolitan Council industrial land is being absorbed at a rate of ap- proximately 500 acres per year. The last three years have shown a 20% annual increase over the preceding tour. In- creasing prices and decreasing avapability continue to result4rom that demand. As developing areas become fully developed, users and developers will be forced further from the core cities to develop new sites. Those few sites still remaining in the core city and first•ring suburban areas will continue to increase in price at a significant rate. All of the previously mentioned facts a�d considerations demonstrate a greater need than ever before for careful selection of industrial sites from within the ind�sVial user com- munity. Careful analysis of a company's needs and goals must be maiched with an equally thorough analysis of availability, comparable merit, and cost of land. As evidenced by the preceding study, the industrial land picture is a con- k.. Exhibit 2 LAND SUMMARY 1.

PATIENCE AND HARD WORK CULMINATE IN SALE`OF AIRPORT Originally it was Amon Carter Field, the main airport for Dallas and Fort Worth in the days when most of the traffic was DC-3s and crop dusters. It had been renamed Greater Southwest Inter- natinal Airport by the time it was finally rendered obsolete by the opening of the giant Da11as/Fort Worth Regional Airport in 1973. The Fort Wortn city fathers wanted to get the old facility-1,222 acres—back onto the tax rolls and�thus began a long but rewarding task for Coldweli Banker Commercial Real Estate Services and our Dallas office. The sale, to Dal•Mac Development Company of Richardson, TX, closed June 5, 1980, and will result in a$28.8 million consideration paid out over a 12•year period.

Ae further stated that they will be changing the driveway to Rickard Road and that the mail box will be moved off East River Road and that this fence would a11ow them to ssse their large front yard and give them privaCy and noise abatement. Mr. Moravetz st�ted that the proposed fence would be less obstructing than the existing fence. Mr. Kemper asked if they would be sodding over the old driveway and asphalting the new one. Mr. Almen said they would be doing that. At this time, Ms. Hendley, expressed serious concern regarding fencing pcsing a safety problem in that area, especially turning in the early morning heavy traffic.. She has lived in the area for 12 years and feels it is definitely a hazard traffic azea. She further steted that visibility is impossible in the winter with the snow banked up against the fencing and that there should be a serious safety study made in the area. Mr. Barna suqgested that someone call Jim Hill, the Public SaEety Director for the City of Fridley, and invite him to drive out to the area. Mr. Moravetz stated that he had received a call from a lady living on Rickard Road who was cancerned about the fence and she thought it would be okay when she found out how far the fence was from the intersection.

The additi.on is proposed off the back o° the dwel7.ing (to the west) and in line`with the north side of the dwelling. 'I'he ad8ition would not create any probluos for the adjoining property owners to the north as their dwelling :aces Kunball Street ar.d there would be 52.6 ft. bet�veen dwellings.

He further stated that the roof line will be carried all the way back, they will be matched, and the addition was okay with his neighbors to the north. Mr. Barna stated that there is a big tree that would break up the visual effect of crowding and that this addition would enhance the neiahborhood. Mr. Moravetz stated that he had no calls from the neighbors. Mr. Kemper stated that the hardshig in trie Staff Report did not address the real matter, that beir.g the home is too small and petitioners need more living space.

CENTER CITY: A. ve Dated Nov. 8 Corooration COMMERS DECLARED THE MOTION Mr. Boardman stated that after Mr. Remmen had received the City's lettsr dated Oct. 27, 1980, giving Contract Development Corporation they had sat down to discuss the letter. At that time, Mr. Remmen had a couple of questions on clarifications. This letter from Mr. Remmen was what Mr. Rermien felt he needed for clarification. Mr. Remmen was looking for a clarification on the intent of the HRA to sell the property at 50% of the appraised value. Mr. Boardman stated he had no problem with that. HOUSING & REDEVELOPMEN7 AUTHORITY MEETING, NOVEMBER 13, 19II0 PAGE 2 � Mr. Boardman stated that in the second paragraph, Mr. Remmen had stated: "We will enter into a purchase agreement on the subject property upon written notification by Contract Development Corporation. Mr. Boardman had changed that to read: "We will enter into a purchase agreement on the subject property upon satisfaction of the conditions that are laid out in the letter dated Oct �T, T9� Mr. Commers stated that the Authority should continue this item at the end of the agenda. They can then make a decision on this item after the rest of the agenda has been discussed. Tax Increment District lMemo #134 re Yotentla Chairperson Commers declared Memo #134 plus the Bond Sale Plan for Disbursement of Bond Proceeds, and Reso7ution HR4 7-7980 received into the record. Mr. Boardman stated he had been taking a look at what they have as far as potential investment with the Village Green tax increment they are collecting rtght now. At the preoious meeting, they had some runs that were made just on tfie Village Green deve7opment and they had a bond potential just on Village Green of around $2,074,160. With this bond potentia7, they a�so have a yreat deal of investment potential. If they fail to take advantage of that investr�nt potential, they could lose up to $39,000. Mr. Boardman stated that in Memo #134 he did an example run of the sale of bonds around the first week in January and took it through with their expenses and different property acquisitions which they would set the bond sale for. He laid out their 9nvestment proqram on that. He stated he had set it up at 9% investment which was relatively conserva- tive and compounded it monthly. Mr. Boardman reviewed this memo with the Authority. Mr. Boardman stated he had also given the Authority members a hand- written sheet. This was a breakdown of what happens if they don't sell the bond initially and wait to sell the bond and if they sell the bond with no development. He reviewed tfiis sheet with the Authority. Mr. Commers stated there should be some discassion as to who would do the investing--would that be their Executive Director? Mr. Boardman stated, yes, and that Resolution HRA-6-1980 talked about bond fund investment. He stated that, actually, the investing was falling back on the F9nance Director. Sid Inman is the temporary Finance Director at this time, � it HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETING, NOVEM6ER 13, 1986 PAGE 3 Mr. Commers stated they should discuss this with Mr. Inman. Mr. Boardman stated that Resolution HRA-7-1980 was requesting the Fridley City Council to sell general obligation bonds based orr the strength of the Village Green project. Mr. Boardman stated he has talked to the bond consultants. If they can get this resolution to the City Council on December 1, they can have a bond sale the first week in January. The bond consultants feel the earliest they can put it tagether is the first week in January. Mr. Comners statedte felt there should be some kind of tirne frame put on the bond investment. The problem is that with every week that goes by, the possibility exists that things could change dramatically. He stated he would like to have a date by which the City Council has to approve the sale of bonds. He thought they had to retain some flexi- bility as to whether they go ahead or not go ahead if things should change. They are committing themselves now, and they cannot predict what is going to happen. Ne felt a time frame of January 15 for bond sales after City Council approval was reasonable. Mr. Prieditis stated he was concerrred:about pressuring the City C�uncil, but v�ovld agree with putting.a time �rame of �Jan. b5 for the sale 'of bonds. Mr. Boardman stated he did not have a problem �with setting a date as long as the date was realistic. Mr. Commers asked if the Authority members had any objection to setting a time frame on bond sales, rather than a time frame for City Council. The Authority agreed to set a time frame of January 15 for the sale of bonds to take place. MOTION BY MR. PRAIRIE, SECONDED BY MR.

Public purpose served by this requiranen t is to maintain a higher degree of traffic visibility and to reduce the "line of sight" encroachment into the neighbor's front yard. Section 205.053, 4A, requires a front yard setback of not less than 35 feet. Public purpose served by this requirc�ment is to allow for off-street _ parkinq without encroaching on the public right of way and also for aesthetic consideration to reduce the building "line of sight" encroachment into the neighbor's front yard. AP��AI.S COMMISSZON MEETING - Nov�nber 25��19&0 Paqe 2 r S. STATED li7iRDSIiIP: � . "We would like to add a 16 foot by 2x �oot.family room onto the south end of our home for additional living area. This is the-.only way to add ontc the house. The addition is jogged out 3 feet into the fromt yard for aesthetic reasons and to match the back li.^.e of the dwelling." , C. ��ADMINISTRFITNE STAFF F2EVIE[Q: The lot is located on the northwest corner cf �uincy Street (front yard) and 63rd Avenue (side yard). The addition �:ould extend to within 32 feet of the front lot line and to within 10.9 feet of the side property lir.e, The home to the rear faces Afonroe Street so this addition would not encroach into their "line of sight". The boulevard width on 63rd Avenue is 17.67 feet so the addition would be 28.57 feet back fran the curb. This is a three-way intersectiun (Quinc�� Street does not cross 63rd Avenue) which is used mainly by local traffic so the addition should not cause any major traffic visibility problems. If the Board moves to approve this variance, the staff does not have any stipulations to reco�nend. Mrs. Riste said there was one correction to F�e made, that being the addition is going to be 16 feet by 26 feet instead of 24 feet. She said they woti�.d.be extend- ing: 2 feet in the front as there was a problem with the overhan� and it would also be better aesthetically. Mr. Clark stated tliat there is also a problem with jogging the block. Mr. Kemper suggested overlooking the 2 feet and just act on the variance request and Ch;a�rwoman Schnabel said it dceS=�ot make any difference as long as they do not come any closer than 32 feet from the lot line. She then asked if the addition was going to be a family room and what would the exterior finish be. Mrs. Riste said the addition would be a family room and there would also be a base- ment. She said the exterior fi.nish would be brick and sidin9 and they are having the vroxk done. Cfiairwoman Schnabel asked if they had talked to any of their neighbors behind them and Mrs. Riste stated that her husband talked to some of them and there doesn't seem to be any problems.

He stated he has alsa received Mr. Herrick's copy of the document and was able to discuss the changes Mr. Herrick feels are necessary. He stated he would like to go through the document with the Planning Commission to note the changes and discuss the recommended changes made by Mr. Herrick. 205.02 GOALS (page 2) Recommended changes 6y Mr. E[errick; #3.

CURB GRADE - Delete "or its equivalent for the purpose of this ordinance° � PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, DECEMBER 3, 1980 PAGE 2 Recor�nended changes by Mr. Herrick: (page 4) #30. HOME OCCUPATION - Mr. Herrick wanted to know what the purpose of "over-the-counter retail sales" was and if there was no purpose other than to restrict retail sales, he questioned whether they should say "over-the-counter". Mr. Herrick recommended that "provided that no signs other tfian those normally utilized in a residential district are present" and "over-the-counter" be deleted. Ms. Schnabel stated she felt that what was written in the definition for "Home Occupation" really belonged in the Zoning Ordinance. She stated that there could be a simple definition and then the restrictions could be listed in the Zoning Ordinance. She thougfit it would 6e harder in a court of law to defend a definition as opposed to defending an ordinance. Mr. Boardman stated fie had no problem witfi this suggestion. It might be a little cleaner. He stated he would reorganize this and make the necessary changes in R1 and R2. Ms. Scfinabel stated that another tfiing the Comnission had talked about at one time was whether or not t�e City should require business licenses. No decision was made. Mr. Harris stated that one reason wfiy they should be concerned about the home occupation was that in the Comprehensive Plan, they had stated they wanted to maintain and upgrade the character of the residential neighborhood. If they are going to maintain and upgrade the character and integrity of the residential neighborhoods, and if they are going to allow commercial enterprises within those residential neighborhoods, he felt they were working at opposite ends of the stick. Ms. Schnabel stated she saw the need for licensing as a method of the City gaining the knowledge of where these occupations are located, the neighbors knowing that the City has some knowledge of these occupations, and maybe providing a vehicle for the City to supervise what is going on. Mr. Boardman stated that the City has no bus#ness licensing at all. They cannot just license some businesses. They either have to license all tiusinesses ___; or not license businesses at all. — —" — Mr. Harris stated tfie real concern a6out home occupations was how the home occupations impacted tfie surrounding neighbor�oods. Ms. Schnabel asked if the City receives any complaints regarding horree occupations. Mr. Boardman stated they really have not received any complaints on home occupations. PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, DECEMBER 3, 1980 PAGE 3 Ms. Hughes stated that, at this point, she did not want to pursue the question of business licensing. It may have some merit for the Community Development Commission to pursue ihis question. The Commission concurred that the question of whether to require business licensing in the City of Fridley be referred to the Community Development Car�nni s s i on.

She stated that it was inconsistent to require the licensing of one and not the other. Mr. Boardman stated that this was a change the Planning Commission had made. They had wanted some control on the "mother-in-law" apartment and had recommended licensing of a limited dwelling. He stated he had no problem with eliminating licensing. He stated the City Council wants to eliminate dwelling, limited completely.

M5: Schnabel stated that at the September 30, 1980, Appeals Commission meeting, the Appeals Cormiission had a discussion concerning the rewriting of the Zoning Ordinance. It was their concern that special use permits were heing permitted as a method of speeding up things and that special use permits were sometimes used with some abuse, and that perhaps rezoning was really a more logical step to take and more fair to adjacent neighbors. She stated that, keeping the Appeals Commission's concern in mind, she had to question some of the things in the special use section. Ms. Schnabe] stated that churches and private schoo7s in an R-1 area usually take such a large body of land. Once these buildings are constructed, unless they should be destroyed, she felt it would be more logical for that property to always continue to be used for what it was built for and it would be more logical to rezone that piece of property from R-1 into some proper zoning. PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, DECEMBER 3, 1980 PAGE 7 Mr. Boardman stated thereis no appropriate zoning for churches and schools. It could be zoned commercial, but then if that church or school was ever closed, it is a commercial zone for any commercial venture. He stated their main concern used to be duplexes allowed in a single family zone with a special use permit, but that has been eliminated. Ms. Schnabel stated that a hospital was such an enormous facility and to main- tain it in an R-1 zone with a special use permit almost makes the Zoning Code seem like it is lacking something by not havinq a zone that can handle a facility like that. Why not haue a hospital zone? Mr. Boardman stated they could set up so many different zones, they would not be able to control them. Ms. Hughes stated they should look at the permitted uses under the special use permit to make sure they are uses that ought to be permitted. (page 27) 205.073 Lot Requirements and Setbacks Mr. Boardman stated lot area from 7,500 9,000 sq. ft. that the City Councii has talked about changing the minimum sq. ft. as recommended by the Planning Commission back to The Commission members concurred that they did not want to change their recorrmendation and that the minimum lot area should remain at 7,500 sq. ft. Mr. Harris stated that in the Comprehensive Plan, they made the statement that they were going to promote and make available affordable housing in the City of Fridley. At the rate of land costs and building costs today, houses built with a minimum square footage of 1,020 sq. ft. on a 9,000 sq. ft. lot is probably in the neighborhood of $75,000 with an interest rate of 15%> and that is not affordable housing. (page 29) Mr. Herrick made the following recommendation: Delete #4-B-2 (page 3�) "side yard of five feet is required between building and side proeprty lines° 205.076 Perforniance Standards Delete #1-B.
