Mr. Oquist stated that the pupose of the Commission was discussed at the last meeting, and that they will look to the City Council for direction, and that they are looking at Block Grants, and at Community Housing. Mr. Harris stated that he is concerned about the use of Industrial Revenue Bonds, in regards as to the Nay some of Fridley's sister Community's are using them to lure business's away from Fridley. He stated that one pariicular incident he was aware of, had concerned him, but his real concern was that this was not an isolated incident. He stated that within the last week he learned that Fridley will lose a 50,000 square foot building, and about 125 jobs due to some shananagins by Coon Rapids. Mr. Boardman questioned if this business had approached the City of Fridley with an Industrial Revenue Bond request. Mr. Harris stated that this persan told him that he had, but that the City wanted $$,000.00 first. to start the process. Mr. Boardman stated that what the City requires is usually $ 5,000 as a deposit to begin the process. but that this money is used to cover administrative cost. That amount not used is returned to the petitioner. M r. Harris stated that he felt that the City should look into this area and see how the people that request an Industrial Revenue Bond are handled, and look at the process. He further stated that Coon Rapids, had also stated that they would do some gymnastics with the taxes, to attract business their way. 5C PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, NLY 8, 1981 Pa�e 4 Mr. Harris stated that this particular type of tactics disturbs him very much. because the City of Fridley is losing these business's and theae jobs� plus the revenue it generates, ar�d the tax base.

Ae further stated that they had out grown their facility. and had some problems buildin� on at that location, they were then going to build in the Paco Industrial area and had already purchased land just north of Frito-Lay. He stated that if Fridley's sister communities are raiding the City's industrial base, that disturbs him very much, and iY this indeed is happening. he felt that the Planning Commission, the City Council. and the staff, should have some discussions with the legislature. because that was not the intent for the Industrial Revenue Bond, Discuseion ensued concerning Industrial Revenue Bonds.

It currently limits trucks in excess of one ton from parking in residential districts in excess of two hours. Off-street parking in residential districts is allowed if 15 feet from the curb. NEW BRIGHTON No special truck restrictions. SPRING LAKE PARK The City Council of the City of Spring Lake Park finds that the parking of large trucks, tractors, and other commercial vehicles on the streets and rights-of way within the City, for other than temporary parking for delivery or unloading, creates an unnecessary risk of personal injury, creates ar. unsightly aDpearance within the City and often produces excessi-.•� noise. It is a violation of this ordinanc:. for any person to leave, park, permit or allow any motor vehicl� described below upon any public street or right-of-way: a. Commercial trucks with over one-ton carrying capacity; b. Tractors used for hauling trailers; c. Trailers (the type pulled by tractor); d. Commercial buses. Temporary parking of such vehicles for delivery or unloading is excepted from this ordinance. FRIDLEY No person shall park or leave standing a commercial vehicle, whether attended or unattended, having a gross weight of more than 13,000 pounds upon public streets in any residential district for a period of time longer than four hours, unless in the process of loading or unloading and then only for such period of time necessary to load and unload. It should be noted that truck parking restrictions tend to be politically controversial as evident form attached newspaper articles relating to Mounds View. Page. Four Truck Parking in Residential Districts i2 Should our City Council feel that Fridley's ordinance be more restrictive, I suggest the following factors be considered: 1. Definition of vehicles desired to be limited. 2. Complete restriction or specific hour(s) restriction on-street in residential districts. 3. Restrictions off-street in residential districts. If City Council desires modifications in our truck parking ordinance, I would be glad to draft a revised ordinance based on Council's desired changes. m �� & v q � �dq F .y � .r � .y A � � .� � C V � 8 v � � �� u 1�'�"�1 �1 � � �� .� '� � � � � .� � � � � `� � � � � e � � �� ,�. � � ' \ ' w �.. r 4. • c°.od`o«u �i3�r`° a�e`o.°1.eL.°'.c dGO�.+hC JCVO..O ZOO YO�Nq .,,d`„�a'�=e =je6°d d°OUO3°uU+W �ma ., wr.y3o ar m° ��0' 599� .,�'c�,`o ay��-' c° v�aro°.°in�u >.�._t.�� 3 fn�Y9�R >.DO 3 mEUV `o-' d o � a`,�co� ��" o3.�.co�q�a o ��Q�� cc.°.ya yo��00`a, a=�q�'�..o_ Ae>'yo "�owg_tid;� ��qvZa,U�,c o°9on cwz�c°�?mS �y=�CUG..V``3ayDM �CO•u0�d4u� v�o'mL«LQur`tesa°>�v`yE��Eo�t = p� W C yy.o y C .i m� ��uo�a, 7 .+ �� 99: v a't C..�.

PuDlic purpoae aerved by thie requirement is to control visual polluti� near a rasidentia2 area and excessive use of billboards. Appeals Commission Meeting - July 14, 1981 Page 2. 8. STATED HARDSHZP• "The nearest sign is located on the east side of the railmad tzacks and 806 feet from the proposed siqn. Upon campletion of the canstruction of the bridge planned for 1984, Naegele will move the sign at the railroad tracks tc the west side of the tracks thereby conforming to the i000 foot spacing requirm�t between signs. Therefore, our application is for a apacinq variance nceded only t�porarily." C. ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF RE{7IEW: This sfgn is to be located in the southwest corner of the Holiday Village parking lot and positioned to be view*ed fraan I-694. The sign will be approximately 400 feet fran the residential area that is south of i-694 and approximately 806 £eet from the �cisting billboard to the west. The 1�ppeals Oom�ission shnuld exmnine the real need for this sign and qive attention to the following: 1. How can the desire to place another biiiboard be a legttfmiste hardship: 2. Were the conditions for placenent of billboards to be very firm requtrements7 Denial of this petition should be considered aad Yiaeqele can wait until future hiqhway ehanqes take place that will neceesitate relocation of their eui,stirg siqn. Mr. Clark reported, that, after the Staff Report was typed, it was noted by another field inspection of the site there was anotAer Naegele billboard between Main Street and I694. Ms. Jorgensen stated that in their application it says. "... Upon appronal of this application and before construction of {�epmposed sign, Naegele will remove the actvertisinq sign presently located in the NW Quadrant of I-694 and Connty Road 102." She further stated that this meant they would r�ove that sign if they get this new sign approved. She then shavea the Con¢ni- ssion the �[isting billboard on the aerial niew of the area and shaaed them where the single poster siqn is located and where +�e new one would be located. She explained that when construction of the bridge is completed in 1984, they plan to take the other sign down an8 move it and then they would meet the 1,000 foot distance requirement, She said as far as the distance from the residential area, there wau2d be 400 feet and that there is also e sound barrier that protects residential. She also explained that they have taken two other signs down in the area and that is why they are malcin9 an aPplication for this new sign. She also atated that when they take down the siqn next door and pnt up the new sign there mill be less of a nonconformance than there is right now and it would also be an improvmnpnt. She stated there is a sovnd and visual barrier for the residential requir�nent. She further stated that she realizes that economic hard- ahip is not �ough for businesses but they dfd lose two aigns. She reiterated that this aaould be less of a nonconfozmance than it is right now by taking out the sign in the middle and by 1984, they would be relocating the sign by the railroa8 tracks. She stated that if the City wanted it, they would get rid of the signs now. Appeals C�issioa Meeting - July 14, 1981 Page_ 3. Mrs. Gerou asked why they caould not wait until 1984 and Ms. Joxgense= said it was because they have lost two signs. Mrs. Gerou then asked if these siqns bring in any revenue to the city and Ms. Jorgensen said no, tfiey would only benefit in that it would be less of a nonconforsance than it is now. Chaixwoman Gabel thought it vrould be helpful to give some background about the billboards and sign co�ittee. She said Naegele had a good deal of input on the sign ca�ittee. She said the cc�ittee did not want signs uP but a consensus was reacfied to nllow billboazds bnt to make code somewhat restrictive. She added that there is a large proliferation of signs in the area of Highways 47 and 65 aad I694. Ms. Jorgensen said they are asking to staY at status quo and the poster sign in tlie middle is on wood poles and the superstructure is not nice lookin9 and they wauld be sttaightening that ont and making it nice and clean. Mr. Barna asked about the prwcimity to the intersection and what is considered the intersection. Mr. Clark said it would be where University crosses I694. Cheirvroman Gabel felt that this mey have to be taken back to Plant�in4 for a more exact definition. Ms. Jargensen said if the Ccmmission was wosried about the sign possibly affecting traffic and possible accidents, that she covld not imagine g billboard 300 £eet away affecting the raaop. Chairwoman Gabel brought out a report from the Minnesota Department of Transportation regarding accidents between 7th Street and East Riner Road vrhich showed tfiat there had been 306 accidents in that area within a 2-year period CChaixwcman Gabel had this repart fman another matter). She £elt that the ramp located there is so short and accelerates vnder the railroad bridge that there could be a potential hazard and felt very strongly about adding anything there. Mr. Jorgensen said studies have been done by the Federal Highway Administration on effects of signs and traffic accidents and said they determined that they could not pinpoint an accident that was cavsed by a sign. Chairwoman Gabel felt people are not goinq to admit tA looking at a signwhile they btmiped into the persan in front of them and ahe does have a concern ahout that, She stated that are three signs alon9 there and alon4 7th Street and she had some serious reservations about adding to that potential hazard. She also felt that Naegele has not been able to identify a real clear-cut hardship; that taking dovm a sign is not a valid reason. Ms. Jorgensen said she xealizes that economic hardship is not enough for a business but that Naegele 8oes business here and tries to be Pa±-t of the community. She also felt that they would be aesthetically im- proving the area. Mr. Barna was concerned about the sign that was going to be left up vntil 1984 and Ms. Jorgensen said their plan would be to move it to the other side. Chaiztvaman Gabel atated tfiat if this variance was turned down and Naegele came in again in 1984 and the other siqn had been taken down, they would still need a variance for the residential requir�nent. Ms. Jorgensen felt that the barrier pzotects the residential area. Chairwaman Gabel she she understands what Ms. Jorgensen was saying about the barrier protecting residential but she felt that the �barrier is not a significant reason for granting the variance. Ms. Jor4ensen said that 500 £eet fra¢u residential is the larqest in the Twin Cities area. Chairaoman Gabel stated that part of theproblem is that there is such a prolifera- tion of signs in this city and she feels bound to what came out of the sign committee (the sign co�nittee represents a very large cross-section of this commnunity). She also felt that, because of the bad acceleration ramp, it wonld be better if the sign were someplace else, ?4peals Commission Meetinft - Julv 14 1981 Page 4 Mr. Clark asked if the bottom of [he sign wauld be 11 feet above Main Street and the top '14 �eet above that makiag the total height 37 feet off graundand Ms. 3orgensen said that was correct. Referring to the line in the ordinance that reads, "... the meximimm height for a sign int�ded to be viewed from a highway is 25 feet above lot grade, aad in this inatance its 25 feet above Main street, and the 25 foot maximum height � be computed from the centerline of the traveled blghway•" Chairwman Gabel felt there might we a better may to write "may" and a better way to address the grade levels. Mr. Clark etated the primary intent was ground below the freewa;: as with the siRn on 7th Street. Mr. Barna sa3d his main concern is not covered in the ordinance, that being a visual distraction in a hiqh safety area especially with construction ccming �; he would prefer that there be no additi�al distractions. Mrs. Gerou agreed with Mr. Barna.and Chsirwam�an Gebel reiterated her concern about safety in that e�c- tremely accident prone section of the freeway. She further felt dovbtful that a variance has actually been demonstrated nor an extreme hardship. MOTION by Mr. Barna, seconded by Mrs. Gerou, that the Appeals Commission recormnends to the City Council denial of the request for variaaces pursuant to Chapter 214 of the Fridley City code, to reduce the distance between adnertising signs from the m;.nimum of 1000 Peet to 806 feet, and redvice the distance from a residential area from the required 500 feet to 400 feet, to allow the construction of a 49 ft. by 14 ft. billboard, to be located in the Holiday Store parking lot in the Nortp$$t . Quadrant of I.694 nnd Main Street, on Part of Lot 13, Auditor's Sub- division No. 155, the eame being 5591 Main Street N.E., Fridley, Min�sota, as the Appeals Camnission cnnnot see a definite hnrdahip in not being allowed to place a siqn there; that by infozmation contained in the Minnesota Department of Transportation reports, it is a high traffic and snfety hazard area; that these will be n lnrge amount of construction in this area in the next few yearst �at there 1s a large aononnt of traffic conqestioa in that area during the rush hour; that the loss of signs in the area, voluntary or involuntary, ts not a valid hardship.

Chairwotuan Gabel said Mr. May has a different hardship that she noticed when she visited the area because he had already started building the deck when he found out he had a problem. Mr. May said the original plans were to have the house built four feet closer to the river with an 8 foot deck and when he de- cided to build a 12 foot deck, he thought there taou2d be no problem until Mr. Clark came out „ checked the setback and fouiid out that they would be 2£eet 6 inches over the line at one corner or the deck and that Mr. Clark informed that he cvould have to apply £or a variance. He said they are asking for 2 feet 10 inches. Mr. May stated the hardship in changing it now because they have the footings in and making it 10 feet wovld make an awful small 10-foot screened in porch. tir. May brovght a letter signed by nine of his neighbors that could not make it to the meeting indicating that they have no objection to the variance. Chairwoman Gabel read the letter from his neighbors. MOTION by Mr. Barna, seconded by Mrs. Gerou, to receive the letter from Mr. May's neighbors in favor of the variance. iJPON.A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRWUMAN GABEL DECLARID THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. Mr. May said the house was built where it was to accomodate two big oak trees on the property. Mrs, Gunderson stated she was the neighbor to the north of Mr. May and that she is new in the neighborhood, having bouqht the house one year and one month ago. She said it was very discouraging for her to be at this meeting because she has to let people know she is not in agreement with Mr. t�7ay's plan. Chairwoman Gabel asked her what house she lives in and Mrs. Gunderson said it is a 32-year old log cabin and that Mr. May's house was built verY close to the property line and that she has three windaas that are completely blocked by a gray, stucco wall. She said she does qet some relief from the window in the southwest corner. She stated she was asking to have some view left out of that window that, even if it is only 2 and a half feet, it would still make a difference. She said she has a 9£oot by 20 foot screened-in porch and feels that has the hardship by hnving a niew obstructed, Mrs. Gunderson said she wanted to build a garage but adjusted her plans because of the code restrictions. Chainaoman GaHei assured her that tfie commission does not "rubber staaap" anything and they are interested in the neighbors viewpoints and that is why they are notified. She further stated that the purpose of this courtnission is to recognize the fact that there are eacceptions to every rule and building code; it is their job to see if, indeed, Mr. May has a hardship. Chairwaman Gabel stated that, if Mrs. Gunderson wanted to build a garage, she has the same right to c�e in and ask for a variance. She further stated that the variance Mr. May is asking for is not that larqe and he could still build it three feet less. Mr. Classgens said he was the neighbor to the north of Mrs. Gunderson and that he has no position on this except that Mrs. Gunderson is purchasing the home on contract for deed from his mother-in-law, Mrs. Engelhardt, and they did not con- template that there would be any more building on Mr. May's side. Mrs. Classgens asked Chainvoman Gabel W read the names of the people who signed the letter for Mr, May. Chairwoman Gabel read the names (some could not be read because of handwriting): John Sass, Mr. & Mrs. Alvie, Mr. and Mrs. Hermanson, blr. and Mrs. Rolin, Mr. and Mrs. Crabtree. Mrs. Classgens stated that, with the exception of Mr, & Mrs. Crabtree, no one else lives there. Chairwoman Gabel stated that evezyone who lives withi.n 200 feet is notified. Mrs. Classgens felt they don't have as much right as Mrs. Gunderson does and wondered if it is going to spoil the way the neighborhood looks and the way the riverbank is being used. Appeals Coaomission Meeting - July 14 1981 Page 7 Mr, Crahtree stated that he has lived in that area for a lon4 time and feels that Mrs. Gunderson has probably one of the best views of the river and that view will aot be shut off by 2 feet and 10 inches. Ae statea that Mr. May had some problems building his honse becanse of the two big oak trees. He said he would only sell the lot to Mr. May if he pramised not to destmy those trees. Mr. Crabtree felt strongly that everyone should be able to put a deck on the back of their house and that this is just a corner of the porch. He stated that he has no objection at all to the variance request. Mrs. Gerou asked Mrs. Gunderson i£ she objects to the porch co�letely. Mrs. Gunderson stated she was surprised that there was a porch being built and she checked with Mr. Clark and found out there was room for a 9 foot porch. Mrs. Gerov then asked her if that would have stopped her from buying the house. Mrs. Gunderson stated that one of tfie very negative factors about tiie house was that there was this house on the other side. Chairwoman Gabel stated that there is a large nwnber of trees and along side of the house there are bvshes and trees; that tfiis substantial growth would se�n to block the view in anY event. Chairwoman Gabel asked Mrs. Gunderson what rooms in her house face the south. Mrs. Gunderson said two bedro�ns and a bathroom. Mr. Classgpns looked at the aerial view of the area and asked about blufflines. Mr. Clark stated that in Fridley they don't think thsY really have a bluffline because o£ all the aegetation; but that structures are placed back so they could not be seen from the river and protect boaters fram seeing the house. Mr. Barna asked Mrs. Gunderson if she was sayin4 that the house blocks direct sunlight in the windows that face the south. Mrs. Gunderson said it is com- pletely blocked by the house, that there is no break in that at all. �. $arna asked Mr. May if the roof of the porch is going to be higher or lower than the �cistinq roof line. Mr. May said it would be the s�e as the second floor and the roof of the hovse would be higher and that the back of his house is almost a fnll walk out. Mr. Clark asked him if his house 3s almost three stories on the riverside and Mr. May said aimost. Mr. Barna asked Mrs. Gunderson if she was objecting or not objecting. Mrs. Gunderson said her personal feelings are verY neqative but as a neighbor she wonld not try to stop him, Chairwoman Gabel stated that heY viewpoint impacts on the aoumission and it vrould be much easier to decide if everyone was in agreAOent. Mrs. Gundezson said she will not say that she is objecting. Chairwoanan Gabel stated Mrs. Gunderson does not get any light now and that the addition will make the current situation any worse. She stated she would be more concerned if the roo�s were not bedrocros and Mr. May can still build two feet less. She further stated that 2 feet will not impact on anythin4 in view of the growth that is there and that Mr. Hay already has the footings in and she could not justify for two feet to make him take evexything 8own. Mrs. Gerou felt that as long as he can still build a deck, the extra 2 and one half feet will not make much difference. Mr, Hippen stated he a4reed with that. Mr. Barna asked Mr. May why not put the addition farther to the south and Mr. May said because the porch is attached to the family rouu, Appeals Cwnmiss'ion Meeti.n4 - Ju� 14 j 198i i'a�qe 8. Mr. Barna stated he felt that more than one of the neighbors don't want Mr. May to be any closer to the river than he is already and he could also see their point in not wanting to voice a definite, positive "no" and he did not feel like making a motion in favor. MOTION by Mr. Hippen, seconded byMr, Barna, to close the public hearing. t1PON A VOICE V(Y1'E, ALL YOTING AYE, CHAIRWOMAN GABEL DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED AT 9:00 P.M. MOTION by Mrs. Gerou, seconded by Mr. xippen, that the Appeals Co�nission recommend to the City Cauncil approval of the variance request to the Interim Development Regulations for the Mississippi River Corridor Critical Area, Section G, 4, (B�2), to reduce to 97 feet 2 inches, the requirement that in urban developed districts, no structnre or road shall be placed less than 100 feet from the noxmal highwater mark of the river, and na less than 40 feet from bluffiines, to allow the construction of a 12 foot by 21 foot three-season porch on Lot 4, Block 1, Marion's Terrace, the same being 7110 Riverview Terrace N.E., Fridley, Minnesota 55432. UPON A VOICE VOTE, THREE VOTING "YES," AND ONE VOTING "NO," CHAIRFIOMAN GABEL DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED. OTHER BUSINESS: Chairwoman Gabel reported on windmills and stated that the way it is coming through the new zoning code is that a person would need a special use permit. Mr. Clark felt there should be a restriction on number of feet fros the lot line and height. Mr. Sarna stated he was in favor of windmills but leery of a 200-foot windm�ll that could possibly fall oves. He fvrther stated that he would rather see allowed to a�limit�that whereever it be placed it would not endanger a neighboring structure and that anything �ore massive in size vrould then require a variance. Mr. Clark suggested a one-to-one ratio, for everY foot in you can 90 one foot up. Mr. Barna asked if it was still in discussion and Chainao�an Gabel said the covncil has it now and it is somewhere in the middle of readings and review.

TRUCK PARKING IN RESIDENTIAL DISTRICTS: Mr. Boardman stated this issue was brought up at City Council and was sent down to Planning Comnission fran the City Council. He stated there is the question of whether the current ordinance on truck parking is a satisfactory ordinance. He stated the Planning Comnission had a copy of a memo from Jim Hill regarding a survey of truck ordinances in other suburbs. Mr. Boardman stated that Fridley's ord., Sec.506.04,states: "It is unlawful for any person, firm or corporation owning, driving, or in charge of any bus, motor truck, truck, tractor, or commercial vehicle to cause it to be parked or stand longer than 24 hrs. in any residential district." Mr. Boardman stated they have trouble enforcing this ordinance because if tfie vehicle is moved even five feet, it, in effect, extends the time limit for another 24 hrs. Mr. Boardman stated that ordinance, Sec. 506.122, states: "No person shall park or leave standing a cortmercial vehicle, whether attended or unattended, having a gross weight of more than 13,000 pounds upon the public streets in any residential district for a period of time longer than four hours, unless in the process of loading or unloading and then only for such period of time necessary to load or unload." PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, JULY 29 1981 PAGE 2 Mr. Harris stated he did not think they should allow truck parking af any truck over 13,000 pounds on residential streets. The residential streets are not built f�r truck parking. Mr. Kondrick stated that truck parking on residential streets is also dangerous.
