Muinurcii�: vac:dtie 4tin �zreez oeLween niocKS 4 ana 5, ana tne iz toot
a e11 y in Block 4, Ree's Addition to Fridley Park. (Block 5 alley vacated
Ordinance 208) (balance of streets and alleys from Mississippi to 64th
Avenue vacated February 23, 1953, in Book 292, Page 219, Anoka County
Records).
Mr. Boardman stated this it�n was continued from the last meeting. He stated
he has talked to the people who were in the audience at the June 9th meeting.
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, JUNE 23, 1982 PAGE 3
Mr. Boardman stated he thought it shou7d be a stipulatian of the Planning
Comnission that there will be no notification of the vacations until the HRA
acquires and owns the properties. He stated the City Councilwqll have the public
hearing on July 12, and they will have the first and second readings some time
after that. The City Council will hold up on the pub7ishing of the notice of
vacation. The ordinance cannot go into effect until after publication in the
paper. Fifteen days after the notification, the vacation goes into effect.
Mr, Boardman stated he had talked to Mr. Harvey Peterson, legal counsel for
Mr. Ryan, Mr. Peterson had suggested that as part of the vacation, the HRA or
City Council have something in writing that says the alley will not be vacated
until the HRA either acquires or takes an acquisition on the property, There-
fore, the property owners would have ful7 use of the alley, and it would not
impede their access to their properties:
Mr. Boardman stated he would be open, based on legal opinion from the City
Attorney, to agreements for access, if agreements are necessary.
Mr. Ryan stated he would like some kind of written agreement.
Mr. Steve Hardel stated that besides guaranteeing his access to his garage, he
would also like a guarantee that his garage is going to be able to remain open.
With the plan to put in sewer and water and reroute 64th Ave., if he has no access
to his front door, he has no business,
Mr. Boardman stated what will affect Mr. Hardel's business the most is the con-
struction that will be going on to put in a new 4th Street. He stated they will
have to work with the contractors on this to maintain an opening for access to
Mr. Hardel's garage.
Mr. Ryan stated he has been in fridley for 22 years and has bui7t up a pretty
good business. He just could not understand how somebody else in another business
could come into the City of Fridley, say they want to build a clinic, choose
whatever property they want, and then the existing buildings have to come down.
It seemed to him that if someone wants to buy his property, that person/persons
should come to him persona7ly.
Ms. Schnabel stated the members of the Planning Commission were very sympathetic
to Mr. Ryan's concerns and what he is going through. She explained that one thing
that happened several years ago was the City decided it needed to upgrade tfie
"downtown Fridley", the most identifiable area being what is now the Center City
area. In the process, because things were financially a lot better at that time,
the City re-established the HRA, identified some areas to be developed, and with
a broad brush stroke, included a lot of land.
Ms. Patty kardel stated it seemed it would have been more feasible to put the
clinic in an area where the City already owns the land, instead of acquirRng more
to give the clinic this site.
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING JUNE 23, 1982 PAGE 4
Mr. Boardman stated they did show the Columbia Park people all the sites available
5n the City, and Columbia Park Properties selected the site they felt was the
best for their business. He stated the clinic is a very stable business, and
the City did not have to do a lot of promotion to develop or to maintain that
clinic; however, in order to attract commercial/retail/office, they have to have
visibility and easy access, so the property to the north of University would be
a lot easier to promote for that kind of bnsiness than the property south of
City Hall,
MOTION BY MR. OQUZST, SECONDED BY MR. KONDRICR, TO RECOMMEND TO CITY COUNCIL

3. RECEIVE JUNE 1Q, 1982, HUMAN RESOURCES COMMISSION MINUTES:
MOTIDN BY MS. VAN DAN� SECONDED BY MS. GABEL, TD RECEIVE THE JUNE 10� 2982,
HUMAN RESDURCES COMMISSION MINUTES.
Ms. van Dan stated the accessibility survey has been progressing very well. They
have had over a 50% return. She stated the project should be completed by the
end of August.
Ms. van Dan stated the Cortmission was quite upset when they were informed a few
hours prior to their meeting that the City Council had decided not to fund any
of the funding requests. The Commission was both angered and annoyed that the
City Council had not made this decision earlier because the people took a lot
of time to prepare their presentations. It was a7so a waste of the money they
have so little of.
Ms, van"Dan stated the Commission has decided to continue to review the funding
requests and make recommendation to the City Council that they reconsider their
decision. She realized the funding requests are much larger than they have been
in the past, but she would like the Planning Comnission to know what these
requests are:
Centra7 Center for Fami] Resources - requesting $5,000. In the past, 27%
o eir services ave een provi ed to Fridley residents; whereas, in the
past Fridley has only funded 6-7%, so the City has not really offered them
that much to start with.
PLANNING COMMISSI4N MEETIN6 JUNE 23 1982 PAGE 5
North Suburban Famil Services Center - requesting $3,Q00-6,000. They
serve approximate y 0 Fri ey resi ents on a subsidized sliding fee scale.
5outhern Anoka Communit Assistance (SACA} - requesting $2,5D0. They
ser� 3 5 ri ey resi ents out o a tota 887 so Frid]ey residents repre-
sent almost 50% of the people served.
The Alexandra House, Inc. - requesting $3,000. According to their statistics,
t ere are women in ridley who are considered battered women, 20 of
them have gone to Alexandra House for service. Their question is: Where
do the other 310 go?
Frid]e Creative Pla Center - requesting $4,000, 64 of the 94 families
serve are Fri ey resi ents.
Ms. van Dan stated she was sure all of these organizations have gone to as many
sources of funding as possible.
Ms, van Dan stated the Commission would like to gather all the facts and have
5-6 good reasons why they think the funding requests should be reviewed. They
are also reviewing the 1983 city budget very carefully. Some of the commissioners _
feel priorities may be high in certain areas, and may6e they can make some
recommendations regarding the budget.
Mr. Svanda stated he thought that rather than cutting the funding out entire7y,
the City Council should have looked at a gradual reduction. Cutting off those
funds so abruptly could have a gross impact on the people wfio were getting that
funding,
Mr. Oquist stated he did not know how the City Council could make such a decision
like this without first sitting down and reviewing the city budget. How can they
make priarities until they see what all the priorities are?
Ms. van Dan stated she, Mr. Treuenfels, and Mr. Goodspeed attended the State
Department of Human Right's No-Fault Grivance Procedure training session on
June 19 at City Hall. She stated that if and when the City decides they would
like to carry on with this program, the three canmissioners are now certified to
hear grievances.

Mr. Jerrold Boardman
City Planner
City of Fridley
6431 University Avenue N.E.
Fridley, Minnesota 55432 -
Dear Mr. Boardman:
First of all, I would like to thank you for taking time
to visit with Jim Benson and I on June 8 to discuss the
enclosed lot split application. The�application
pertains to the vacated alley between the buildings
located at 7753 Beech Street N.E. and 7752 - 76 Elm
Street N.E. Please note that the application has been
signed by myself as Contract Purchaser of the property
and also by Dallas Anderson of Assurance Manufacturing
Company as the Owner.
For your information, we are having the lot surveyed
with the enclosed application in mind. The legal
description of the property will be subject to this
Survey.
It is my understanding that the next City Planning meeting
will be held on July 14 and the next City Council meeting
is scheduled for July 26. We would like to have the
application on the agenda for those meetings.
If you have any questions regarding this information,
please give me a call at 645-0751. Thanks for your
help and cooperation.

IV. CENTER CITY PROJECT:
A. Update: Columbia Park Properties
1. Memo �82-47 from Executive Director
Mr. Boardman stated Columbia Park Properties had their bond closing
on June 16. Minnesota Title has insured over any of the problems
with guarantees as per the contract documents. The HRA members have
a copy of a signed option, in which Mr, Doty agrees to give the City
an option on the property for $1. He stated that satisfied Columbia
Park Properties on their closing.
Mr. Boardman stated everything else is moving along. He stated
groundbreaking ceremonies will be on Friday, July 16, at around
2:30-3:00 p,m. He stated he would like as many NRA members as
possible at the groundbreaking ceremonies.
2. Resolution HRA-2-1982 (Concurring with City Council Action on
, Columbia Park Properties IDR Bonds)
Mr. Boardman stated this action has already been taken by the City
Council, As per Section 7.2 of the Contract for Private Redevelop-
ment between Columbia Park Properties and the Fridley Housing &
Redevelopment Authority, it also requires the HRA to approve bonds.
He would recomnend the HRA approve HRA-2-1982.

3. Resolution HRA-3-1982 (Approving Construction Plans)
�1r. Boardman stated he would recortmend the HRA continue this
resolution. One of the reasons for continuing it was they have
not yet received the final plan documents. There were some modifi-
cations in the initial document, and those have not been received
so the HRA was not in a position to approve this resolution at this
time.
Mr. Commers stated that since the resolution involves the approval
of the construction plans, the HRA would like to have the Building
Inspector at their next meeting with regard to those p7ans. He
also believed it required the HRA to have a copy of the construction
contract in terms of the bid, because it requires the HRA to approve
that the construction is not going to exceed the funds available.
Mr. Boardman stated the bids should be back by the next meeting
and an actual contractor seiected based on those bids. He would
have the Building Inspector at the next meeting to answer questions.

4. Resolution HRA-4-1982 (Request City Council to Authorize Bond Sale)
Mr. Commers asked Mr. Sid Inman to explain his June 3, 1982, memo
on the Bond Saie.
Mr, Inman stated the City has accrued $1.7 million in special assess-
ment temporary bonds for their construction project (normal sewer,
water, and street improvements). They anticipate selling these bonds
as early in June or July as they can because of the projected window
in the interes# rates. They have prepared the resolutions for the
Monday agenda for the City's sale, and if the HRA concurs and agrees
to request a sale by the City Council, they have prepared those also
for the Monday agenda. That wou7d give them a bond sale of approx.
June 12.
HOUSING & REDEVELOPHENT AUTHORITY MEETING, �UNE 17, 1982 PAGE 4
Mr. Inman stated the advantages to a bond sale are: (1) The HRA's
issue oing with the City's tends to drive the interest rate down;
and (2� The HRA gets a 25� break on the administrative costs by
going with the City on a combined sale.
Mr. Inman reviewed the computer run by Ehlers & Associates dated
June 7, 1982.
Mr. Irnnan stated that if the HRA was concerned about their cash flow,
there might be some wisdom in waiting. He stated the resolution
requesting the Lity to issue bonds does not require them to issue
at the same time.
Mr. Corrmers stated there was some concern about the cash flow
available on the funds if any other projects would develop.
Mr. Inman stated that later in the agenda, he has a financial report,
and a lot of the HRA's increment flows through the state in the
Homestead Credit. The HRA's, like the cities, are experiencing some
problems in the payments of the Homestead Credit. He stated the HRA
will note on the financial report that a$74,000 payment received
in January 1982 should have been received in 1981. At this point,
he did not know what the City's reduction in Homestead Credit is.
Mr. Conxners stated they should continue Resolution 4-1982 until the
end of the agenda when they discuss the financial report.
B. Bids on 64th Avenue Project (Memo �82-43 from Executive Director)
Mr. Commers asked if it was necessary to relocate 64th Avenue even
though they may not be doing the office building,
Mr. Boardman stated he thought they were looking at the necessity of
relocating the street because it was pretty well set when the clinic was
designed. The clinic was located toward the back of the property primarily
because of the office tocation. In order to get adgquate room to develop
an office fartfier to the north, they had to look at going across the
street. As per the conditions of the contract documents with Columbia
Park Properties, Columbia Park Properties wanted to ensure they had
adequate access and said they needed an access easement. That access
�asement is actually an easement that was set up over the property.
That leaves the HRA 50 ft, of property between that access easement
and 64th. In recent discussions with Columbia Park Groperties, they
were very concerned that the HRA was even considering not putting in the
revised 64th Ave. Their main concern was that once their building is
up and open, 64th Ave. would be closed for the purpose of construction.
Columbia Park Properties is requesting the HRA to take an action to
put the roadway in per the original plan,
MOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETING, JUNE 17, 1982 PAGE 5
Mr. Cortmers asked the cost of the project,
Mr. Boardman stated the tota7 street project is $51.607� and the sewer
and water project is $13,125. He stated the sewer and water has to go
in to service the clinic. He stated they are approximately 26% below
the original engineering estimates. If they are going to put the road
in, it may be in their best interest to put it in at this stage because
of the cost. •
Mr. Prairie stated that
then an office building
that was not necessary.
if they go ahead and relocate 64th Ave., and
is never put in, they would have spent money
Mr. Boardman stated it was a matter of planning. Once they package a
facility to build an office building, they have a piece of property
that can be packaged easier than if they had to go into vacations and
the street was not in. He thought it was a7so a matter of commitment
on the projact. The HRA has conrnitted to the c7inic project, and the
clinic is cortmitted to a location on that site because of the other
things that were happening.
Mr, Boardman stated the HRA was promoting the office development and
worked out the plans with the office develapment and Columbia Park
Properties that this would be the best way to situate the office building
and clinic in conjunction with City Hall and an outdoor plaza. Ne
stated they have to cortenit to something in order to develop the Center
City area.
Mr. Cortaners stated he did not know how the HRA got into the position
of being corrcnitted to this, because from the start the HRA was not too
happy with the clinic building being in the location it is now. They
would much rather have had the clinic located in another part of the
Center City Project.
Mr. Herrick stated that, as Mr. Boardman had stated, the clinic has made
plans based on that layout. He felt it was too late for Columbia Park
Properties to change the location of their building. He was always
under the impression that the location of the clinic buiTding was based
on the relocation of 64th Ave. At this point, the question the HRA has
to answer is whether they want to create another building site by moving
the road to the south. If they do not move the road, then they will not
have another building site and they wi7] probably not have the best
utiliiation of the praperty south of the existing 64th. If Columbia
Park Froperties had assumed that 64th would stay as it is, he thought
their piarts wauld have been different for utilization of that portion
of the properf.y. He thought that, if they create the o`fice building
site, sooner ar iater it �iil sell. The question is how long it will take.
It didn't mean they couldn't move the road at a 7ater date, but this was
probably the best price they are going to get. He stated Columbia Park
Properties has expressed a desire to have the road relocated now so when
the clinic is in operation, there will not be a street under construction.
HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AU7HORITY MEETING, JUNE 17 1982 PAGE 6
Mr. Prieditis stated that if the HRA canmitted themselves to the
additiona] building site, then they are almost carmitted to do the
relocation of the street right now.
Mr. Boardman stated that when they looked at the overa7l area, they
wanted to develop so the spaces that were created were exciting spaces.
They talked about developing plazas and that was the basis on which they
went out for competition of landscape architects, so the HRA'has committed
to some kind of design criteria for this area.
Mr. Commers stated part of the problem was communication with Columbia
Park Properties. Columbia Park Properties made the mistake of locating
their building on the property without the other project being approved.
The office building location has never been approved by the HRA. All the
HRA did was look at some preliminary plans for an office buildinq and
say they were fine. Columbia Park Properties came in with plans, and
the HRA approved those plans and entered into a contract agreement with
comnitments, but they never committed to the relocatian pf 64th Ave.
Mr. Prairie agreed with Mr. Commers.
Mr. Herrick stated the crucial question was how the HRA wanted the
Center City Project to develop ultimately. Did they want an office
building on the north side of 64th? If they do, the road has to be
changed.
Mr. Prieditis stated he felt the HRA pretty much accepted the concept
Mr. Boardman had presented to them. Even thougfi they never formally
voted for it, he felt they had accepted it and, as such, they have this
commitment and have to pay the c�nsequences by moving the street. He
stated it is possible the HRA did not express themselves clearly enough.
Mr. Prairie stated it is going to be difficult to discuss possibilities
if they are going to be cast in stone right away. The HRA is going to
have to be very carefu7 in the future.
Mr. Commers stated it is a question of commitments that have been made,
however those ca�nitments have been made. He stated they are comnitted
to the clinic project itself, and they want it to be a good project.
Ne stated there is a lot to be said for the way this has come up and the
way it has been done, and there is no excuse for it, It has not been
done in a proper manner. There was no understanding on the part of the
NRA that they were committing and had cornmitted to a design development
for the whole area. By approving the street relocation, he did not think
they were cortmitted to how the rest of the area is going to be developed;
and because ofi the fact that they have asked for bids on the Center City
plaza, he did not Lhink that committed them to doing that project. He
stated that is not the way the information is to be brought to the HRA,
nor is it the way it should be comnunicated to people who want to parti-
cipate in the developments.

D. Appraisal Reports (Memo #82-49 from Executive Director)
Mr. Commers asked Mr. Herrick to summarize the status of the negotiations
with Mr, Doty.
Mr. Herrick stated that, as the HRA was aware, the HRA employed an
appraiser to appraise the shopping center that Mr. Doty owns. The
appraiser came highly recommended by the Minneapotis HRA. He stated
the appraisal on the shopping center came in at $375,000. After
receiving the appraisal. he and Mr. Boardman met with Mr. Doty. Mr. Doty
took exception to two or three parts of the appraisal and thought the
appraiser was low on some of the factors of the appraisal. The appraisal
was for real estate and the buildings and pertinences that are associated
with the purchase of real estate.
Mr. Herrick stated there are some state and federal requirements for
relocation assistance and personal property inventory. Mr. Boardman
had advised Mr. Doty that he intended to emp7oy a separate appraiser to
appraise the personal property and relocation expenses. In conclusion,
they did reach an agreement with Mr. Doty, subject to HRA approval, that
Mr. Doty be paid $40D,OD0 and that would include his entire claim which
vrould be the real estate, relocation, and personal property. Mr. Herrick
stated he felt comfortable in making the recommendation to approve that
price for the following reasons:
(1) The appraisal was $375,000. He had no doubt that Mr. Doty
could secure a reputable appraiser who would give a higher
• appraisal. If it went to court, it would be a jury case,
and they have a tendency to arrive at a figure between the
two appraisals.
(2) The cost of going through condemnation. The City would face
additional appraisa7 costs to have ihe appraiser testify.
They wou7d have to pay for three comnissioners and under the
law, a certain amount would be paid to Mr. Doty for appraisal
HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETING, JUNE 17 1982 PA6E 8
of the property, and there would be attorney fees. Under
the circumstances, he would rather see the HRA pay $400,000
than go to court and argue the real estate value plus paying
the cost of condemnation and personal property and relocation.
Mr. Commers asked if Staff was in agreement with that recanmendation and
the acquisition price of $400,000.
Mr. B�ardman stated he thought $4D0,000 was a reasonable figure.
Mr, Herrick stated he secured from Mr. Doty a 30-day unilateral option
in which Mr. Doty has offered the property to the HRA on the terms
Mr. Herrick had described. That is a binding option, and the HRA has
until July 15 to decide if they would choose to exercise the option.
He stated he would reco�nend the HR,4 approve the option.
MOTION BY MR. PRAIRIE� SECONDED BY MS. SVENDSEN� TD RPPROVE THE
NEGOTIATED P�RCHRSE PRICE OF 5400,000 AND TO APPROVE THE EXECUTION OF
TXE OPTSON AGREEMENT TXAT HAS BEEN NEGOTIATED WITH MR. DOTY BY THE
CITY ATTORNEY.
UPON A VOICE VOTE� ALL VOTING AYE� CHAZRPERSON COMMERS DECLARED THE
MOTION CRRRIED UNANIMDUSLY.
Mr. Boardman asked if the HRA wished to move on the offers for 332 and
336 - 64th Ave. Regarding the clinic, the delivery requirement for
these properties is Dec. 15, 1982. He stated they have not initiated
any contact with the owners of the properties, other than to let them
know the HRA is in the process of acquiring property, and some appraisals
have been done. At this time, the City has not made an offer or started
any negotiations.
It was the concensus of the HRA that the Executive Director go forward
and enter into negotiations with the owners of 332 and 336 - 64th Ave.
based on the appraisals that have been received.
E. Letter from Barthel Construction - Update on Phase III
Mr. Commers stated the HRA had received a letter dated June 8, 7982,
from Laura Manske, Cortanercial Leasing and Development, of Barthel
Constructian. Mr. Canmers declared the ]etter received into the record.
He staied the letter was for the HRA's information regarding the negotia-
tions that are proceeding with the supermarket that will be caning into
that space and the desires on the part of the supermarket people to have
a doubling of space as opposed to what was discussed in the initial
project.
Mr. Commers stated the project appears to be moving along. It appears
that until�the supermarket commitment is made,it will be slow securing
other tenants. but some are beginning to line up based on the securing of
the anchor tenant. He stated that maybe in a couple of months, they could
have Ms. Manske come to a meeting and give a verbal report on their progress.
HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETING, JUNE 17, 1982 PAGE 9
MOORE LAKE PRO�ECT
A. Cheryl Nybo Project (M�no �82-50 fran Executive Director)
Mr. Boardman stated the HRA members had a copy of the contract document
and a letter of canmitment fran Eberhardt.
Mr. Comners asked Mr. Boardman to summarize memo #82-50. �
Mr. Boardman stated they have been contacted by Ms. Nybo who is still
interested in d�ing the project. He stated the HRA did have a right
of development with Ms. Nybo, but the HRA removed that right of develop-
ment; however, the HRA left it open for the development of fhe office
building if Ms. Nybo could put the package together. He stated he,
Mr. Herrick, Ms. Nybo, and Ms. Nybo's attorney had a meeting and they
came up with contract documents that are satisfactory, They feel they
are ready to move on the contract documents.
Mr. Herrick stated he did not think there were any areas of disagreement.
The contract is similar to the development contract format they have used
for other projects. The one major concern was the attorney for the
project was concerned about the assessment requirement that would lock
them into a stated assessed value. The attorney's concern was that if
the building was not full, they would be giving up their right of appeal
to the city, county, and state to have a reduction based on the income
evaluation, What the attorney asked for was that rather than be tied
to an assessed or market value, they be tied to a guarantee of taxes
sufficient to repay the money that was advanced, Mr. Herrick stated
that in this case, that would be relatively sma]1, because it was his
understanding that the cost of the land with the existing building was
relatively small in comparison to the title value of the building.
Mr. Herrick stated the City didn't think that was a reasonable approach,
but they reached a canpromise. What they did in appr�ximate fiqures was
to say that under today's method of eva]uating the proposed building, the
taxes would be approximately $52,000. They agreed they would permit them
to appeal the assessed value of the building based on the lack of income
if the building is not completely full, but under no circumstances could
the taxes fa11 below $40,000 a year (which was approximately 75% of what
they would be).
Mr. Cortmers asked what they were talking about regarding the land cost.
Mr. Boardman stated he took the appraised land cost and plugged that
figure in. At this time, they did not talk about any reduction in land
value, and that is a rt+atter of wfiether they are gaing to look at a reduc-
tion in land value or not. The appraised value is around $45-48,000,
and Ted Burandt, owner of the property, is looking at $65,000, a7though
he will drop to $60,000 if he can have the building and move it off the
site,
HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETING, JUNE 17, 1982 PAGE 10
Mr. Carmers asked what Staff's recomnendation was with regard to the
land cost and what they do in terms of cost or write-down on this project.
Mr. Boardman stated that unless Ms. Nybo can show the HRA she needs that
write-down to make the project go, he would recomnend they work on the same
basis, that is 100�.
Mr. Commers asked Ms. Nybo if she had any cortments regarding':the real
estate tax or the land cost.
Ms. Nybo stated she was in agreement on the tax. She had not discussed
the land cost formally with Mr. Boardman.
Mr. Herrick stated that regarding the commitment ]etter from Eberhardt,
the commitment is conditioned upon a pre-rental of 50% of the building,
and the condition is that when the building is 50% rented, a major
portion of the mortgage would be canmitted; and when it is 85% rented,
the balance of the mortgage would be committed. He thought the HRA was
going to have to give some thought to how they were goinq to handle this.
The first question they have to determine is: Do they want to take any
action in acquiring the property until such time as the building is 50%
rented and the major contingency is removed from the comnitment? If they
do, they want �o ask the individuals involved to guarantee the City and
the HRA their expenses if the HRA does proceed and they are not able to
satisfy the condition in order to get the mortgage.
Mr. Commers stated they should probably do what has been done in the past--
expect and ask for a guarantee of the HRA's out-of-pocket expenses, other
than the acquisition.
Mr. Herrick stated he thought that would be the proper approach.
Mr. Herrick stated, regarding the contract, one other change they agreed
to make was that, rather than posting a performance bond, they agreed to
accept a letter of credit fran an acceptable bank. Ms. Nybo's attorney
felt this would be less expensive and easier to obtain. Mr. Herrick
stated he had no problem with that.
The HRA members agreed that was acceptable.
Mr. Herrick stated it was his understanding the principa]s are proposing
to proceed with a newly formed corporation, and he thought any guarantees
they get should include personal guarantees as well as corporate guarantees--
a guarantee of the HRA's expenses if the project doesn't go forward and any
other commtments that might be involved in the development contract.
Mr. Boardman stated he felt the HRA was now in a position to approve the
contract documents and set a time limit on actua] commitment of the
financing. He stated it was his opinion that this was a good project
and would be a good benefit to that area. The actual cost of the project
to the HRA was very little in the sense of the amount of canpensation the
HRA will get out of it as far as tax increment.

COMMERS DECLAhED THE
St. Philip's Project (Memo #82-51 fran Executive Director)
Mr. Boardman stated the City has been working with the people from
St. Philip's Church. St. Philip's proposal is for a 60-unit elderly
facility. They are looking at the southwest corner of Central Ave. and
Rice Creek Road for the location of this facility. St. Philip's is a
sponsor for making application for 202 funds. He stated 202 funds are
federal HUD monies for mortgages. There are funds available for fiscal
year 1982. The app7ication is being made by St. Philip's as a non-profit
organization, and the Ebenezer Society is assisting St. Philip's as
consultants in putting the project together. The application wi11 be
submitted to HUD on June 30.
Mr. Boardman stated that as part of that application process, St. Philip's
has to show tfiey do have some ability to control ownership, 7hat is
where the HRA comes in for HRA support of the project. The HRA will have
to give a right of development to St. Philip's in order for them to do
the project. That right of development is similar to other right of
developments, only they have to be a little more specific for HUD.
Mr. Boardman stated that in the draft "right of deve7opment" letter to
St. Philip's, it says the HRA does give the right of development to
St. Philip's Church, and that "St. Philip's Church proceed to work on
the submission of a 202 application to the Department of Housing &
Urban Development". It a7so lays out the time period and states that
if financing is approved, the HRA will take the necessary action to
acquire the property. He stated they set up a basis for that acquisition
and the acquisition costs are laid out in paragraph 4 of the letter.
They also had computer runs done by Ehlers & Associates on the project
based on estimated costs on the project--that they have a 60-unit building,
the value of that building is $2,00�,000, paying an estimated $69,000
in taxes. Based on those conditions, they could commit $325,D00. That
$325,000 is based on the bond run of $500,000, including the capitalized
interest costs of $165,000. In addition to that, the City Council
approved $]10,000 in CDBG funds for fiscal 7983 to be cortrtuoitted to tfie
St. Philip's project. That comnitment is based an HU6 approval in Oct.
HUD sets priorities and gives preliminary approval in Oct. Once pre-
]iminary approval is granted, the funds are released for c�nstruction
next Oct.
HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETING, JUNE 17, 1982 PAGE 12
Mr. Commers asked for Staff's recortmendation.
Mr. Boardman stated he would recommend the HRA proceed with the right of
development to St. Philip's Church. He stated St. Philip's has done an
excellent job on this and is trying to meet some of the needs that are
in the City. St. Philip's is getting letters of support from the
Community Development Canmission and the Human Resources Co�ission,
approva7 at the Chamber of Comnerce Board meeting and a letter of
support from. the Chamber of Commerce, and the City Council has taken
a step also in providing CDBG funds.
Mr. Canmers stated there should be sane kind of termination date at the
time when St. Philip's is notified as ta whether or not funding was
approved.
Ms. Judy Lee stated she was with Ebenezer Society representing
St. Philip's as their consultant. She stated the contract needs to
be between the HRA and a corporation called "St. Philip's Human Services,
Inc.", which is a new corporation recently formed by the church to be
the owner and the borrower corporation on this project.
Ms. Lee stated she wanted the HRA to know as�much as possible about this
development, and that is that the amount of money HUD will 7end them, if
their application is approved, is limited by fair market rent formula that
HUD dictates and interest rates that are not yet announced. In essence,
there has not been a project of this type developed that had any land
cost associated with it for the last 2-3 years. They want the HRA to
be aware of this and to know that if they get the mortgage money, it
will most likely not pay any land cost, that all the money will have to
go into construction costs. They are hopeful there are ways to explore
to cover that land cost, whatever it is.
Ms. Lee stated she had one other concern about the wording in the "right
of development" letter. In paragraph 4 when they ta7k about "The purchase
price to St. Philip's Church shall be determined by a Court established
or negotiated value on the original acquisition...", she wondered if they
would be able to include some statement as to the HUD appraised va7ue
or a broader statement such as, "the price that is ultimately determined
has to be approved by HUD",because that is a fact.
Mr. Howard Helgen stated he is a member of the St. Phi7ip's co�nittee.
He stated that because St. Philip's is a conduit on the project, they
do not have any funds to carrnit to the project. He felt the pragraph
should reflect the purchase price would not in any way involve any funds
from St. Philip's Human Services, Inc. The money is going to have to
come from some other source.
Mr. Boardman stated he would work with Ms. Lee on the wording in the
"right of develppment" document.

thought it would be useful for the HRA to know, an an informal basis,
how they are doing and what is allocated for each project.
Mr. Cormiers stated he did not think the NRA had any concern about being
able to make interest payments. They may have a problem with the money
when it is first due, and there might have to be some shifting of funds,
but the problem is a long range or short range planning problem about
where they would take the funds and where they would put them. He thought

they should have sane kind of strategy or plan so that when money is
needed, they are not caught not knowing what they have to work with in
terms of what they are going to need on their other projects.
Mr. Inman stated he did not feel the HRA would have any problems. He

UPON R VOICE V02E� ALL VOTING AYE,
UNANIMOUSLY.
1. CONTINUED: ENERGY ACCOUNTIN6 SYSTEM
SABR DfiCLARED THE MOTION CARRIED
Mr. Saba stated the Commission members had a copy of a memo from Sid Inman,
Director of Central Services, to Bill Deblon, in which Mr.Inman stated his
specific concern was the cost effectiveness of the program. Mr. Inman also
stated the State Energy Agency has a version of an Energy Management System
avai]able on the Apple Computer. Mr. Inman stated the City currently has an
Apple used for character generation, and the City Council has recortanended they
investigate the potential use of that canputer.
Mr. Saba stated what the Commission is talking about regarding an energy
accounting system is coming up with a program that will calculate energy costing,
energy usage, and print out a report. The only immense amount of data would be
the historical data.
Mr, wnarton stated there are firms that are doing energy management progra�ning
and making a nice living at it. There is a nominal fee to set this system up.
He stated he would obtain an output form to bring to a Cor�nission meeting. The
Carmission coutd then possibly utilize that form t� approach one of the vocationat
schoois and ask if writing up a simple basic computer program for the City of
Fridley's Apple Canp�ter could be a project for a computer c7ass. Then, it
would be a matter of submitting the monthly utility bill data onto the computers.
Writing the program is what is going to take the most time.
ENERGY COMMISSION MEETING, JUNE 22, 1982 PAGE 2
Mr. Deblon stated it sounded like the State Energy Agency has an fnergy Management
$ystem, and it is just a matter of getting that fran #he Energy Agency and running
it on the City's system.
Mr. Saba asked Mr. Deblon to contact the Energy Agency and try to get that set up.
Mr.,Jordan stated it might be feasible to contact some of the large commercial
companies that have total energy management and ask them if they would send the
Commission at least the formats as to how they are handling their tota7 energy
management. He stated he did not have too much confidence in the Energy Agency,
and he would also like to see the Canmission look at something else, He stated
he would be responsib7e for contacting sane commercial canpanies and asking them
to send the Commission their canputerized programs.
Mr. Jordan stated Dunwoody has a complete computer department that he has access
to at any time. Ne stated he would be wil7ing to talk to the person in charge
of that department and see if they would be interested in writing up a computer
prngram as a class project.
Mr. Deblon stated he would first like to see what the Energy Agency has available,
and then he wil] get in touch with Mr. Jordan and the Coimiission and go from
there. He stated he would continue to collect the mohthly energy data.
2. CONTINUED: STOP SIGN pOLICY
Mr. Saba stated he thought the Commission needed to cane up with sane ideas for
a stop sign policy. One of his ideas would be to cane up with sane kind of data
and prioritize the elements of that data into d weight scale; for example, public
safety would be No. 1, traffic flow, energy, alternate routes, etc.
Mr. Deblon stated that at the last meeting, Mr, Saba had asked him to see if the
Public Works Department had a list of criteria used in deciding whether a stop
sign is or is not justified. Some of the criteria they use is from the Uniform
Traffic Manual fran the Minnesota Department of Transportation. Some of the
things that are taken into account are traffic volume, crossing traffic, pedestrian
traffic, and unusual visual handicaps. A stop sign is not to be used to control
speed or divert traffic, but he felt the City was at that stage now or beyond it.
Mr. Saba stated he thought there were some good criteria in this materia7, In
coming up with a policy, public safety has to be No. 1, but a majority of the
st� signs are being used for speed control.
-r�:_�
Mr. Jordan stated he would ]ike some time to study this and try to cane up with
some ideas for the next meeting.
Mr, Saba agreed and asked each Corrmission rr�mber to write up their thoughts for
discussion at the next ireeeting. He stated he vmuld also ]ike to find out what
other legal signs are available for use in the City as alternatives to stop signs.
ENERGY COMMISSIOry MEETING, JUNE 22, 1982 PAGE 3
Mr. Deblon stated the Cortmissioners roay even want to consider setting up some
kind of procedure for the removal of an existing sign.
Mr. Wharton suggested that, in addition to the Cortmissioners studying this and
bringing ideas to-the next meeting, Mr. Tessmer be asked to try to come up with
a model policy for the next meeting.
Mr. Tessmer stated he would be willing to work on a model stop sign policy.
Mr. Saba stated discussion on the Stap Sign Policy would be continued at the
next meeting.

4. OTHER BUSINESS:
Mr. Jurdan asked if there was anything the Comnission would like to do through
cable TV in educating Fridley residents about energy conservation.
Mr. Wharton stated maybe they could put together some kind of announcement that
could be put on the public information channel and then updated once a month or
so.
Mr. Saba agreed that one of the biggest problems with energy today is the con-
artists, and people are looking for good, honest information regarding their
energy probiems and questions. He stated he thought they should parsue this.
Mr. Jordan stated that since the Comnission meetings are open meeting, there may
be people who wouTd l�ke to come and ask the Commissioners questions, but he
wandered how many people even know the meetings are open to the public.
_ _ _-'�..:�
Mr. Saba stated he would like to put on the next agenda a discussion of the
development of an educational program through cable TV and possibly some other
media.
Mr. Deblon stated the Ca��issioners did sponsor the showing of "The Forgotten
FundamentaTs af the Energy Crisis° on cable �'Y and they have put articles in
the City's quarterly newsletter. He stated the newsletter just caning out will
urge people to get an energy audit which costs $70 and is offered by the ut9lity
canpanies.

ADPEALS COMMISSION MEETING JUNE 29 1982 PAGE 3
Mr. Dick Wiggin, Shakopee, Mn., stated that since this was approved with a
variance in 7979, they have attempted to draw the building plans on the same
basis. He stated he has been to7d that the City of Fridley does not have zero
lat lines for 4-unit buildings.
Ms. Gabel stated that was correct; however, the City is in the process right now
of drawing up a townhome or that type of zoning, but they don't have it at this
time.
Mr. Wiggin stated he has been developing land and building in the Twin Cities,
mostly in Richfield, 67oomington, Burnsville, and for the last 15 years in
Shakopee. He stated he was on an ad hoc committee that helped design a zero lot
line. He thought it was going to be the caning thing, because the big problem
the last 5-10 years is there have been very few apartment buildings built because
there are only 4-unit mortgages. He stated the money has somewhat determined the
building.
Mr. Wiggin stated this will be a 4-unit bui7ding, 3 bedrooms in each unit, with
tuck-under garages. Each unit will have a 2-car garage with 2 parking stalls in
front of the garage, for a total of 16 parking stalls.
Mr. & Mrs. Andrew Veres submitted a petition to the Appeals Cortmission.
Ms. Gabel read the petition int� the record:
"Petition to stop the consideration of a variance request pursuant
to Chapter 205 of the fridley City Code to reduce the front yard
setback on a corner lot from the required 35 feet to 30 feet, and
the sideyard setback on a corner lot from the required 35 feet to
16.25 feet, at 5600 - 4th St. N.E „ Fridley"
Ms. Gabel stated there were two identical petitions--one with four signatures
and one with two siynatures.

UNANIMOUSLY,
Mr. Veres stated it was the neighbors' concern that all the houses, including
the 4-plex be even, so they did not want the variance approved for the front
yard setback from 35 feet t� 3Q feet. �•
Ms. Gabel explained that the proposal is to leave the 4-piex in line with the
houses, and that was the reason for the variance to 3D ft. All the houses along
the block are 30 ft. fran the street, and the 4-plex would then be consistent
with the houses.
APPEALS COMMISSION MEETIN6, JUNE 29, ]982 PAGE 4
Mrs. Yeres stated the neighbors would have no objection to the buiiding as lortg
as it was even with the houses, as that was their only major concern. She stated
they are in favor of the bullding because the area as it is now is an eyesore.

Mr. Plemel stated he would be in favor of granting the variances. He stated he
thought the building wouid be a nice addition to the area. He did not think the
variance to the south would cause any visibility problem as it is lined up with
the buiiding across the street.
Mr. Barna stated both variances seem to be what the neighbors want, and he did
not see any objection from the neighbors.

Mr. Wiggin stated he really does not need the variance to reduce the side yard
setback from 35 ft. to 16.25 ft. on the south side unless the Canmission wanted
it that way.

1. NO-FAULT GRIEYANCE PROCEDURE TRAINING - REPORT:
Ms. van-Dan stated the No-fault Grievance Procedure training session was held on
Saturday, June 12, at Fridley City Hall. She stated that in addition to
Mr. Treuenfels, Mr. Goodspeed and herself, there was a representative from each
of the following citiesc Richfield, Rosevilae, Edina, Arden Hi11s, and Coon Rapids.
Mr. Treuenfels stated the session started out with introductions and materials
were handed out. He stated the morning was spent going over the various aspects
of the Hwnan Rights Act and an explanation of some of the basics of the No-Fault
Grievance Procedure.
Mr. Treuenfels stated the No-fault Grievance Procedure is exactly what it says.
Na attempt is made to find fault with anyone. The intent is to'go to the root
of the problem by getting the two parties together, getting them to talk, and to
try to come to sane solution satisfactory to both parties. That is essentially
a11 the power that the local grievance committee woutd have. If a satisfactory
solution cannot be reached, the matter is then referred to the State Department of
HUMAN RESOURCES COMMISSION MEETING JULY 1 19$2 PAGE 2
Human Rights. He stated there is a time element that has to be watched closely
because there is a statutory limitation of six months from the date of the alleged
probtem and when the matter has to be submitted to the State Department of Human
Rights. So, the 1oca1 group is ]imited essential7y to looking at the matter �
for only four months; and if no satisfactory solution is reached at the 1oca1
level at the end of the four months, it is strongly urged that the matter go on
to the State.
Mr. Treuenfels stated that in the afternoon, tfiere were further discussions.
Considerable time was taken on a test and a discussion of the test results. He
stated one of the most exciting things of the day was when they went through
one example of a grievance case, and those present at the training session actually
played the roles as it might happen in real life and as it might be presented to
the Commission as the local grievance committee.
Mr. Treuenfels stated the Commission is now at the point where they need to make
a decision--either to go ahead with the No-Fault 6rievarcce Procedure and present
it to the Planning Commission and City Council, or to not proceed with the No-
Fault Grievance Procedure. He stated that since two of the Comnission members
had not been able to attend the training session. he would suggest they give
these two members an opportunity to review the training material and they can
discuss this at their next meeting.
Mr. Treuenfels stated that regarding the liability to the City, he had consulted
a 7awyer friend who has been working on the Human Rights Comnission in Brooklyn
Center. and because of possible legal problems, that Comnission has decided not
to pursue the Mo-Fau1t Grievance Procedure for the time being. He stated he
atso asked the person from the State Department of Human Rights how many cases
have actually gone to court against a city. That person stated that as far as
he knew, there were none, The one possible area the person fran the State pointed
out was the matter of the timing--by dragging things out, the Camiission could 7et
a grievance go longer than the six-month period, and some 61ame could possibly
be placed on the City. However� the way to overcane this probtem is to make up
a release form (approved by the City Attorney) that both parties would sign that
would exempt the City fran any l�ability. Mr. Treuenfels stated that, with any
reasonable care, this prob7em need never arise.
Ms. van Dan stated that because Mr. Treuenfets, Mr. Goodspeed, and she went
through the training session and took the test, they are now certified to hear
grievances. .

2. SERVICE OR6ANIZATION FUNDIN6 PROP05AL5: REVIEW
Ms. van Dan stated the Commission's last meeting's minutes indicated the
Gortmission's strong feelings about the City Council's decision to cut out all
funding of service organizations fran the City's budget. At the last meeting,
it was the concensus of the Comnission that they would coniinue to review the
funding proposals and possibly recommend that the City Council reconsider their
decision when the City Council is reviewing the budget. She stated that as they
go along, the Commission may have recommendations or ideas on other ways of
funding or ways that money from the City could be used for this area, possibly
even questioning some of the priorities of where city money is presently being
spent.
Ms. van Dan stated that at the last Ptanning Camiission meeting, she got the
positive feeling from all the Planning Comnission members that they did recommend
the Human Resources Commission continue to go through the review process and did
encourage the Human Resources Commission to make recammendations.
Ms. van Dan stated the Corrmission had five funding proposa7s to consider: Central
Center for Family Resources, North Suburban Famity Services Center, Southern Anoka
Community Assistance, The Alexandra House, Inc., and the Fridley Creative P1ay
Center. She stated they would hand]e each proposal in the order listed.
- Central Center for Family Resources - Request for $5,000
The Central Center for Family Resources has cane to the City for the
past two years for assistance. In 7981, 22% of the total and 32X of
the family educat�on programs were Fridley residents. They anticipate
27% of the total will be Fridley residents in 1982.
In averaging their scores, the Comnission came up with 75:2 �oints
out of a possibte 100 points.
- North Suburban Fami� Services Center - Request for $3;000=6;800
They anticipate serving approximately 120 Fridley residents in 1983
utilizing the sliding fee scale.
In averaging their scores, the Cortmission came up with 5&.0 points
out of a possib7e 100 points.
HUMAN RESOURCES COhE�iI5SI0N MEETING JULY 1 1982 PAGE 4
- Southern Anoka Comnunity Assistance (S.A.C.A,) - Request for $2,500
They provided services to 385 Fridley residents out of a totai 887,
so Fridley residents represent almost 50� of the people served,
In averaging their scores, the Commission came up with 83.2 p0ints
out of a total lOD points.
- The Alexandra House, Inc. - Request for $3,000
According to their statistics, there are 330 women in Fridley who
are considered battered women, 20 of them have gone ta Alexandra
House for service. Where do the other 310 go?
In averaging their scores, the Commission came up with 72:2 points
out of a total ]00 points.
- Fridley Creative Play Center - Request fOr $4;000
Of the 94 families served, 64 were Fridley residents,
In averaging their scores, the Comnission came up with 64.2 points
out of a total 100 points.
Ms, van Dan stated the Commission recognizes that the City Council, because of
financial probiems, has decided not to fund any service arganizations in 7983,
but because the Commission recognizes that these organizations all have worthy
causes and needs to be met. the Commission has continued the process of review-
ing the funding requests. Based on their criteria, the scoring results for the
five organizations requesting funding ranked in the following order:
1. Southern Anoka Community Assistance (S.A.C.A.) - 83.2 points
2. Central Center for Family Resources - 75.2 "
3. The Alexandra House, Inc. - 72.2 "
4. Fridley Creative Play Center - 64.2 "
5. North Suburban Family Services Center - 58.0 "
Mr, Treuenfels stated he would reccmmend that if any funds became available,
that S.A.C.A., Central Center for Family Resources, and The Alexandra House
share in those funds. Ne had reservations about North Suburban Family Services
Center and the Creative Play Center. He felt the Creative play Center could
charge a little higher fee.
Mr. Boergerhoff stated he scored the highest for the organizations he felt provided
preventative-type services that could be seen as preventing problems in the
frture and might even save the City or the County funds in the long run, The two
organizations he rated the highest were Central Center for Family Resources and
North Suburban Family 5ervices Center, because they provide counseling services
that could be utilized by wanen from Alexandra Hoose or referred to by S.A,C,A.
He stated S.A.C.A. was pretty special and was not realTy in competition with
�y of the other organizations.
.�
HUMAN RESWRCES COMMISSION MEETING, JULY 1, 7982 PA6E 5
Mr. 600dspeed stated he gave higher priority to those organizations he thought
had a good public image and that taxpayers would accept their money going towards,
especially S.A.C.A. and Central Center for Family Resources.
Ms, van Dan stated that S.A.C.A. also provides a preventative-type service, and
she felt very strongly that S.A.C.A, is preventing people fran having more
problems and going on welfare. S.A.C.A, has little. if no. return requests for
help, although they do not know if someone would go on welfare or medical assistance
later on. She stated that both S.A.C.A, and Alexandra House deal with crisis
sttuntions. and it was sanething. not only the City of Fridley, but a7so the whole
State,is going to have to face. Because of the poor econanic situation, the un-
employment situations, and the cuts in funding in other areas, she felt there was
gQing to be more stress on families. The increased family stress is causing the
greater need for places like Alr�candra Nouse and the Centra] Center for Family
Resources because they offer preventative serv9ces. She felt crisis and preventa-
tive services were inter-related here.
Ms. van Dan stated that, as Mr. Treuenfels had stated earlier. she also felt the
Creative Play Center's fee is very minimal. People she knew who are partici-
pating in tfie program are getting excellent resu7ts, so it is a needed thing;
but she felt the Creative Play Center could participate a little bit more by
increasing their fees--even consider the dou6ling of the fee.
Ms. van Dan stated that, atthough there is a need for North Suburban Fami]y
Services Center, it was her opinion they have a lot more funding sources available.

Mr. Cayan stated she receives calls from people in the community with serious
finaneial and/or emotional difficulties who have no idea where to ga for help so
they ca71 their local government. She stated she refers these people to what-
ever organization she feels can best help the situation, but referral sources
are diminishing as varioys funding reductions continue to eliminate programs
in this area.

CARRSIs'D UNNVIXODSLY.
The Commission mernbers agreed that although there are not yet any statistics
to support the exact impact of state and federal cutbacks, they felt a signifi-
cant proportion of Fridley's popu7ation who are users of t6ese kinds of services
will not be able to get help fram these orpanizations because of cutbacks. and
the added iocal cutback of funds. The City has a responsibility to these people
just as much as they do to those people in the carmunity who are interested in.
for example. recreation.
HUMAN RESOURCES COWMISSION MEETIN6, JUCW 1, 7982 PAGE 6
The Commission members agreed there are possibly other areas in the City budget
that could be reduced. The Canmission would respectfully request that the City
Council review other areas of the budget that might be reAuced with the possi-
bility of trying to gather dollars fran various places to get the amount of
dollars needed to fund the three organizations recommended by the Comnission.
The Canmission vauld also recommend that if the City Council feels they are not
going to be providing funding of any type in the future, they make this decision
publicly known so that organizations do not spend any time or money going through
the funding request process, and, therefore, have the opportunity to look elsewhere.

l. DIRECTOR'S REPORT:
a. Conmunication - Councilman Barnette
Dr. Boudreau stated the Commission members had received a copy of a
]etter from Cou�cilman-at-Large Bob Barnette and a copy of a letter
from Todd Pierson, Staff inember af Westwood Elementary School, in
which Mr. Pierson and the school staff thanked Mr. St. Clair and
the staff at Springbrook Nature Center for an excellent program.
�. ,
PARKS & RECREATION COFMISSION MEETING, JUCY 6, 1982 PAGE 2
Dr. Boudreau stated that in Mr. Barnette's letter, Mr. Barnette was
inquiring about the use of the nature center as far as the tota] operat-
ing maintenance costs and programs for 1981-82, the user fee schedule,
if any, and the policy on the use of the facility by "other than
Fridley" residents.
Dr. Boudreau stated Mr. Barnette was at an earlier co�nission meeting
held at the nature center where he had requested this same information.
Dr. Boudreau stated he had informed Mr, Barnette at that time that after
the nature center has been in operation for a complete year, he would be
able to supply Mr. Barnette with detailed information as far as the opera-
tion and maintenance costs. Dr. Boudreau stated the nature center has
only officially been open since October 1981,
Dr. Boudreau stated that Mr. St. Clair has been directed to prepare a
user fee schedule for the nature center and the programs, generally
geared toward the school population, and Mr. St. Clair will present that
to the Cortmission at their next meeting.
Dr, Boudreau stated that regarding a policy for use of the facility by
"other than Fridley" residents, the Commission will he starting the
process of developing a policy manual and Staff will be giving its
recomnendation on the use of that facility by "other than Fridley" resi-
dents.
Dr. Boudreau stated he has verba]ly cortmunicated these things to
Mr. Barnette, and Mr. Barnette was in agreement that after one year of
operation, he would like the answers to his three questions.

INFORMRTION REGRRDING TH8 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE COSTS AND THE POLICIES.

THfi MOTZON CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
Mr. Young stated he would guess that if a random survey was made of the
people at Moore Lake Beach on a weekend, they would find that a vast
majority of those people are not Fridley residents. Yet Mr. Barnette
does not raise any question as far as city expenditure of funds to provide
a swimning area for non-residents.
b. Crnronunity Park - Update
Dr. Boudreau stated the grading is finished on the City's section of
the carmunity park. The irrigation is going in and should be completed
by the end of the week. The backstops are gaing in and should be com-
pleted in 1-1� weeks. The whole area is scheduled to be seeded within
�
PARKS & RECREATION C01�1ISSI0�! MEETING, JUtV 6, 1982 PAGE 3
two weeks after the irrigation is working. He stated he would encourage
the Carrnission members to take the time to walk out into the complex
to really appreciate what it is going to be like when it is completed.
He stated it is going to be a very attractive area, and he was glad they
have taken the time to do tf�e jo6 correctly.
c. Anoka County Ordinance
Dr. Boudreau stated the Commission members had received a copy of a
new ordinance by Anoka County, which was an attempt to stop the keg
parties in the county parks. He stated this was for the Commission's
information as he thought they should be aware of this new ordinance,
because the County does cooperate with the City by maintaining L�cke
Park and Islands of Peace.
d. Springbrook Pond Development
Dr. Boudreau stated the Commission members were familiar with what
Mr. St. Clair had talked about at the April 6 Commission meeting regarding
the pond development at Springbrook. He stated they have sent to City
Council a packet of information including a copy of a memo from Mr. St. Clair
regarding the "Permanent Pond Development Improvement Needs", maps,
excerpts from the Springbrook Nature Center Foundation minutes of
Mar. 2, 1982, and excerpts from the Parks & Recreation Commission minutes
of April 6, 1982, on this subject. He stated the Corrrnission members
also received this information. It was for their information and record
and no further action was needed by tf�e Commission at this time.
2. NEW BUSINESS:
a. Briardale Park
Mr. Allen stated Briardale Park is right across the street from his
hane. He stated there has been a lot of work by Staff as far as land-
scaping, turf, and a sidewalk system in the park. Right now, they are
in the process of building an open air shelter. He stated he has heard
many favorable comments from the neighborhood, and several peop7e asked
him to pass along their appreciation and admiration to the Parks &
Recreation Qepartment staff for a job well done. Mr. Allen stated that
if alt the neighborhood parks develop like Briardale, the City is going
to be in good shape.
Dr. Boudreau thanked Mr. A1len for the positive comments.
. b. Date of Meeting
Mr. Allen stated the Tuesday meeting date has become a problem for him,
and he wondered if there was a better time of the month for the Canmission
to meet, or the possibility of the Commission meeting less often than once
a month. He would suggest the Gommission discuss this at the next meeting.
PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING JULY 6'1982 PAGE 4
Ms. Schreiner stated this was briefly discussed at the last meeting,
and it was her feeling that the Commission should continue to meet once
a month, especially if t6ey are going to be working on a policy manual.
Dr. Boudreau stated that at the last meeting, he had suggested the
Commission meet quarterly, because it was very frustrating for Staff
to be at work all day and then come back ta a meeting in the evening
to sit with an advisory comnission that has only three members out of
five. He stated thfis is supposed to be a recreation advisory coRrrnission
to help Staff. He was not saying that three members couldn't help Staff,
but if a Commission is supposed t� have five members, he felt five members'
i�ut was better than three. Maybe meeting once every three months was
less to ask of a volunteer appointed commission member.
Mr. Young stated that if the Commission went to a quarterly meeting time,
he would probably lose interest in the Comnission, He definitely felt
the Co�nission should meet on a montfily basis. He stated the two times
he has missed was because of a work conflict.
Dr. Qoudreau asked that before the next Corrmission agenda is mailed
out, the Cortmission members send him a brief synopsis of their best
meeting times so he can have those typed up and included in the next
agenda.
Ms. Schreiner stated this would be put on the next agenda for discussion.
3. OLD BUSINESS:
a. Proposed Capital Outlay Request 1983
Dr. Boudreau stated that at the 7ast meeting, he had asked the Commission
members to review the proposed capital outlay request for 1983 and bring
any comments or recaimendations to his attention at this meeting. He
stated he had already presented this to the City Council.
Dr. Boudreau reviewed the propased capital outlay request and indicated
the items he had deleted at City Council. He stated the new capital
outlay totals were as follows:
Park Division - $123,876 (was $183,876)
Natural Resource Division - 10,478 was $76,747)
Recreation Division - 10,850 was $12,910)

PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING, JULY 6 1982 PAGE 5
b. Policy Manual Development
Dr. Boudreau stated he had sent the Comnission members some information
out of a textbook, "Creative Administration in Recreation and Parks" by
Joe Bannon. He stated this information would give the Commission members
an idea of what Staff is talking about when they refer to policies and a
manual. He had also copied an index and a page out of a policy manuat
actually used in the Glenview Park District in Illinois. He felt this
was the type of thing they are talking about in a policy manual and it
gave some idea on how a policy manual is written.
Dr. Boudreau stated he had also included the Parks & Recreation Commission's
"Purpose, Scope, Program, and Funds" as established by City of Fridiey
Ordinance No. 606 on Jan. 5, 1976, the "City of Frid]ey Parks & Recreation
Department Philosophy Statet�ent", and the "Departmental Po7icies for
Recreational Leaders" developed by Staff.
Dr. Boudreau stated that if each Cortmission member ►�ou1d choose an area
he/she was interested in working on, then Staff would get together with
each member to discuss these areas. Then, each Comnission member would
come up with a rough draft of a policy for each area within a month.
Mr. Young chose the area of "Participants", Mr.Allen chose "Program",
and Ms. Schreiner chose "Administration" and "Community Relations".
Dr. Boudreau stated he felt this was going to be a good exercise for
them all to get involved in, and he was eager to begin. Ne stated he
would appreciate a call from each Cormnission mem�er to set up a time to
discuss these areas. He stated he wou7d contact Mr. Kondrick and
Ms. Seeger.
c. Northeast Chamber Ensemble and City Band
Mr. Young stated it was braught to the attention of the Corrmission
recently that the Northeast Chamber Ensemble had requested $1,600 from
the City of Fridley for the coming year, In the past, he has not been
opposed to the City's funding the City Band or the Northeast Chamber
Ensemble; but in ]ight of the City Council proceedings on June 7, 1982,
he would like to go on record as opposing any continued funding of these
two organizations and possibly any other such organizations in the future.
Mr. Young stated he was referring to Item 6 of the June 7 City Council
minutes regarding the "Community Service Organization Funding for 1983".
He stated the Comnission may feel this is a prejudice viewpoint because
he fs the President of Southern Anoka Gapmunity Assistance (S.A.C.A.),
but fr�n a moral point of view, he did not think the City can continue
to fund persons who are interested in cultural pursuits and deny correnunity
assistance to those who are less fortunate.
�
PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING, JULY 6, 1982 PA6E 6
Mr. Young stated that at the June 7 City Council meeting, the City
Council decided to deny any funding to service organizations that are
meeting the needs of citizens of our caimunity. He stated S.A.C.A,
was not the only organization denied funding; they also denied funding
to Central Center for Fami]y Resources, North Suburban Family Service
Center, The Alexandra House, and Fridley Creative Play Center.
Mr. Young stated that in lieu of the financial situation, the City
should consider reducing funding for such things as the Northeast '
Chamber Ensemble and the City Band when the City is denying funding
for the health and wellbeing of citizens of our community.
Mr. Young stated it may be that because of financial cutbacks the City
is facing (6-8�), they should possibly consider reducing the funding
provided to the f.Y.S.A. to offset the cost of umpires, etc.
Mr. Young stated he has been involved in this community for 12 years
working with people of a71 ages and handicapped people, and S.A.C.A.
is near and dear to his heart. He did not think the City cou7d deny
things to the 7ess fprtunate and then provide for the cultural pursuits
of others.
Mr. Young stated that right now S.A.C.A. is serving about 30 families
per month in the City of Fridley, either providing th�n with household
goods, food, clothing, or financial aid. By figuring an average family
of three people, that is 90 people per month, 1,080 peop7e per year in
the City of Fridtey being served by S.A.C.A. He stated these people
are what they classify as the working poor, those who are going from week
to weei�, who do not qualify for public assistdnce in many cases, but need
that little extra boost. Yet, the City is continuing to fund a group
where the people could probably afford to pay something in order to parti-
cipate in the City Band or Northeast Chamber Ensemble. Anyone else who
wants to participate in a city function must pay to participate. From
information he has gotten, people do not pay to participate in either
group. He stated he would also like to know how many people actually
belong to each group, and if it is 7imited to Fridley people or is open
to anyone.
Dr. Boudreau stated that from the Parks & Recreation Department Staff's
viewpoint, the City Band is a traditional function that was started in
Fridley and was underwritten by the City to get it started. It is some-
thing that has been continued throughout the years, and no one has ever
questioned the validity of it. The first question brought to their atten-
tion was it was one of two vulunteer groups that utilizes city funding to
pay for leadership. Leadership is not paid for in the F,Y.S.A. or the
Hockey Association. He stated that, traditionally, most city bands are
strictly valunteer groups. He stated they have an obiigation fran the City
Band to provide six band concerts for the playground programs each summer,
but outside of that, the City has very little to say about the City Band's
operation.

PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING; JULY 6, 1982 PAGE 7
Ms. Schreiner stated she felt Mr. Young had raised a very good point,
but she would like to have some more information before the Commission
took any formal action.
Mr. Allen stated he felt this was definitely something the Cor�nission
should look into further, but there were some questions he would like
answered: (1) the names of each service organixation denied funding
and the amount of monies reqyested by ea�h organization; (2) the exact
amount of monies funded to the City Band and Northeast Chamber Ensemble;
and (3) the composition of the City Band and the Northeast Chamber Ensemble.
Dr. Boudreau stated he would get this information.

At kast 60,000 new smsIl rcatal uoiu
could be croated in tix Twin C+tia
meuopolitan uea by modifying ezistins
housing, without jeopard'uing the ehu-
acter of single family neigtibofioods,
according to tt�e I.eague's Rental
Houffing Committee.
The committee ilso said that neigh-
borhoods could control just how man�'
new units are added by being pemiitted
to tnde, �etl. or othecwise exchange
conversion righu—similar to the way
commerciaT and historic properties ex-
change deve(opment rights today. The
flexible converaon right ryriem waz
one of three stntegies the committce
identified u ways to permit more ux of
existing housing riock in angle-famtl)
neighborhoods.
The committee also identified two
other sirategies which would allow
greater use of existing housng riock:
Through zoning changes or special and
conditional ux permits, communities
could allow the converseon of angle-
family houses. Using these tools, com-
munities could attach conditions to pro-
posals to add units, insuring the character
of neighborhoods would not change.
These stratepes should be vigorously
pursued as a way to handle fhe bulge in
rental housing demand likely to occur
in tl�e 1980s, the cortunittce said.
Under the converaon rights plan,
zoning ordinantts would be changed to
allow conversions under specific condi-
tions, and eacti homeowner would be
allouted r percentage share of a oover-
sion. My homeowner wishing !o add a
rental unit to Lis house would have to
amau enough ahares from his �ighbo�s
to total one complet� conversion +ight
before he could add a mit to h¢ houx.
Officials might, for example, decide to
permit five comersions for every 20.
housc area. Each house woutd be given
one•tourth of a conversion share. My
homeowner who w�nted to convert his
house would have to obtain conversion
shares from three neighbors in order to be
� allowed to add a rental unit. Shares

1'6e strategy would illow neighbor-
hooda to gain primary contml over the
number of additional rental units that
would be pemtitted in their neighbor-

'1'kEEMENDOUS OPPORTUNIT�S
FJOST
If one of every ten houses in the
wburbs aere converted, 28.00U new
rentsl units would be added to the
housing dock of the Minneapolis-Ssint
Paul metropolitan area, according to the
comminee. Addiag two units per blodc
would produce nwrly 60,000 new nntal
units, o� approximately oneahird of ihe
178,000 new houflng units the Metro-
politan Council projects the region wa11
nced in the 1980s, the committce said.
Conve�on opportunities ue proxnt
in every communitY but especially ia
the wburba Nearly '10 perant of the
singk-family fwwes in the ngion are
located in the suburbs, most of them in
areas zoned for single-fam�7Y P��P�s

SEVERAL STRATEGIES AV AILABIE
$esdes the oddilion of rental uniu in
existing dngk-famly structures, t6e
cortunittee identified aeveral other
rtntegies to get more rental units on the
market without new const�uction.
Rrotal ot Existing Spax. Owners of
angle-fam�ly homes could simply rent out
space, with no atructural or other altera-
tions to their houses. h'ezdy alt com- �
munities in the regic:� -'�o� uals wit6
conditions, the rnmr
"In the five-coun_, - :rea
there may be at least 140,000 empry bed-
rooms (just in houxs with three or more
bedrooms), which could be rented out;'
the committee said.'"fhese rooms could
l�ousc full� 34 percent of all the pcople
who will tum 20 in the 1980s"
Adding Units to Existing Apartment
Buildings. The committee estima�ed
r8ughly 5,300 units conld be added to
existing apartment buildings in the two
centrai cities of Minneapolis and Saint
Paul. The cost per unit was peFged at
SS,000-120,000 by people who testified
before the committec. Adding units to
existing apartment buildings would not
affect the character of neighborhoods,
since tl�e neighborhoods alrcady are uud
for multidamily buildinp,c, the committee
aaid.
Rehab�itation of Existing Vacant
B�uldin�. Some 1,800 rental units in the
area have been vacant for more than ax
months, according to the 1980 census.
Getting these units onto the market
would help, the committee said.
Allowing "Echo" Hou�ng. "Echo" or
add�on units may be feasible on large
subufian lou on which the house
occupies only part of the land.
CARE NEEDED Qd CONVERSION
OPI70NS
Any atrategy to atlow the addition o(
new rental units to angle•family struc-
tures to add new rental units should be
accompanied with ordinances to safe•
guard the character of neighborhoods, the
committee said.
Adequate sewer and water supplies
should be available for the added popula-
tion, the committee said, and them must
be enough off-street parking to accomo-
date new people.
Exterior alterations should not bc
allowed if they would cliange the char-
acler of the neighborhood, and accessory
units shoald bc dcarly subordinate in sizc
to the existing principal dwelling.
Finally, the committee said it is
(HOUSING continucd on Page 3)
-�
(HOUSCVG continued from Page 2)
imp�,run: to retain the owner�occupied
chancter of singledamity neighbofioods,
w owner occupancy should be rcquired
in con�ersions. The committee acknow-
kdged the existena of constitutiona]
ques�ions surrounding the requirement of
owneroccupancy.
GREAT DEMAND FOR REN'fAL
SPACE SEEN
"Hnw to wpply decent, af(ordable
rcmal housing will be a major issue for
ihc Twin Ciiies area throughout the
19rOs.° the repoR said. �
Many young people of the baby boom
c.nrra�ion wiil enta the housing market
n�i thc firsi timc in thc 1980s, the
;omruii�ez said. In addition, household
siie has been faliing. As a result, housing
drmand has increased cven in communi-
ues rith stable populations as many more
zmaller households have formed.
Thc committee said both of these
fa.iurs ha�e increased housing demands.
Meanwhile, ihe new housng supply
has no� kept pace. Fewer new ttntal
housing units are being added to the
rc�ional supply now than were being
addcd annuslly in the early 1970s.
Morrover, it is becoming morc and more
difficult for families to become new
homeowners.
The increase in demand and the timita-
tions on expansion of supply have added
up to an increasingly tight rental housing
market,
One positive factor the committee
found is the new families being creaced
tha� need housing are small funilie:,
usuall� one or two persons, and can
cherefore be accommodated by eon-
rrrsions, add on uniu, and the other
sirategies �he report endorses.
Whle demand tor rcntal units is
ezpened ro increase throughout the
19SOs, demand may decreau in the
1Q90s, turther wpporting a flexible use

Demographic Trends Vital
in Chartirig Housing Needs
The new CL rcport on rcntal housing
recommends expanding rental opportuni-
ties throu� mom fle�cible and creative
use of the existing houang slock. It dces
not recommrnd a crash contruction
program to build a lot of new rental
housing.
This recommendation is based in part
on the demogi'ephic trends which the
region will experience in the 1980s and
1990s. According to Metropolitan
Council projections, the number of
people in the Metropolitan area tuming
20 in the I980s will be about 405,000,
some 15,000 more than tumed 20 in the
1970s. These people are the ones who
have traditionally looked tor rental
opportunities.
During the 1990s, however, the num-
ber of people in the re�on tuming 20 w�71
decline sharply, with 100,000 fewer
people entering this age group during that
decade than will during the ]980s.
Because of the dramatic dropoff in
people tuming 20 in the 1990s, a need
was seen for a sVategy to cope with the
bubble in rental housing demand which
will owur in this decade. Many new
rental units aro not needed in the roBon
forever, but mainly to handle the popula-
tion group which wil1 need rental oppoi-
tunities in the 1980s.
A previous L.eague study said new
housing construction should be aimed at
the ovec 45 market, ihe empty nesters.
By building housing for empty nesters
snd creating opportunities for them to
move out uf the lazger, singie family
houses with a lot of unused space, new
houang opportunities would open up for
young families with children who need a
(ot of space.
Once again, demographic trends
supQort thi5 strategy. The Metropolitan
Council estimates that 113,000 more
people will tum 30 during the 1980s than
did in the 1970s. M additional 393,000
persons will reac6 that age in the 1990s.
Creating incentives for the over 45
group to move out o( their larger single
family houses is likely to incrcase housing
opportunities for the new home buying
fsmilies in their 30s. So, new home
construction in the region should be
simed at the over 45 group to free
existing housng stock to meet the
demands of changing population.

SP�$2-08, BY JA�hES H. CROSS: Per Section 205.051, �,�, of t�Fridley
ity Co e, to a ow t e construction of a second accessory building, a
22' x 24' attached garage on Lot 4, Block l, Irene Henry Addition, the
same being 6271 Jackson Street N.E. (Variance granted 6/15/82, subject to
approval of special use permit)

UPON A VOICE VOTE� ALL VOTING AYE� YICE-CHRIRPERSON OQUIS2 DECLARED THE PUBLIC
HEARING OPEN AT 7:33 P.M.
Mr. Boardman stated this 7ot is the last lot on Jackson Steeet. It is a dead-end
street with a cul-de-sac. He stated the request is for the addition of a second
garage. The request to the Appeals Commission on June 15 was to construct the
new garage and turn the existing garage into a living area which would require a
variance from 10 feet to 5 feet from the north property 7ine, because the existing
garage as it is now is 5 feet off the property line, At that time, the neighbors
were not opposed to the construction of the new garage, but were opposed to the
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, JULY 14, 1982 PAGE 2
existing garage being converted into living space and requested that both
garages be used as garage space. The petitioner had stated he had no problem
with allowing the existing garage to remain a garage. This then required his
coming in for a special use permit, because the code doesn't allow second
accessory structures of 200 sq. ft, without a special use permit.
Mr. Boardman stated the petitioner is reauesting a specia7 use permit for the
construction of a new garage and to allow the existing garage to remain a garage.
He stated Staff has no problems with this request. He feli it was appropriate
since this house is at the end of the street and the setback variance in front
was granted by the Appeals Commission.
The petitioner, Mr. James Cross, stated this was the only location they had on
the lot to build an additional garage, and they really need the storage space.
The only alternative would be to store their vehicles in the yard or on the street.

CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
Mr. Boardman stated this request would go to City Counci7 on July 26.
2. VACATION REQUEST: SAV #82-.pz, BY S& R INVESTMENT COMPANY: Vacate that
portion of unus� right-of-way a �acent to the west si e of Lots 13, 14,
and 15, Block 4, Hamilton's Addition to Mechanicsville, (highway turn-back),
to allow the construction of a 4-plex, the same being 5600 - 4th Street N.E.
(Appeals Commission recommended approval of variance on June 29, 1982)
Mr. Boardman stated this property is located on 4th Street where the service
drive connects into 57th Ave. It is a corner property. He stated the State
originally had control of the right-of-way all along the service drive, but
the State recently turned all that property over to the City of Fridley. The
City of Fridley does not need the property so at the request of the petitioner,
Staff is recommending this property be turned over to the property owner, but
that the City maintain a 10 ft. boulevard easement.
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING JULY 14, 1982 PAGE 3
Mr. Boardman stated the proposal is for a 2-level, 4-plex with tuck-under
garages. This proposa7 went to the Appeals Commission on June 29 for approval
of two variances--a front yard setback from 35 ft. -0 30 ft, and a sideyard
setback from 35 ft. to 25 ft. Both variances were approved by the Appeals
Corr¢nission and are bing submitted to City Council.
Mr. Boardman stated it was Staff's recanmendation to approve the vacation and
turn the property back to the property owner to make a more usab7e 7ot.
Ms. Gabel stated the Appeals Commission has approved variances before for the
development of this piece of property; but because of financing falling through
and other things happening, no deve7opment has iaken place. She fe7t that if
there is now someone who can do something with that lot, it would be a good thing
for the City.
MOTION BY MR. SVANDA� SECONDED BY MR, SABA� TO RECOMMEND TO CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL
OF VACATION REQUEST� SAV #82-02, BY S& R INVESTMENT COMPANY TO VACATE THAT
PORTION OF UNUSED RIGHT-OF-WAY ADJACENT TO THE WE5T SIDE OF LOT5 I3� Z4, AND
15, BLOCK 4, HAMILTON'S ADDITION TO MfiCHANICSV2LLE, (HIGHWRY TURN-BACK), TO
ALLOW THE CONSTRUCTION OF A 4-PLEX, THE SAME BEING 5600 - 4TH STREET N,E.
(APPEAIS COMMISSION RECOMMENDI;D APPROVAL OF VARIANCE ON JUNE 29� 1982)rW2TH THE
STIPULATION THAT THE CITY RETAIN A IO FOOT BOUL&'VARD EASEMENT,
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, VICE-CHAIRPERSON OQUIST DECLARED THE MOTION
CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
Mr. Boardman stated this request will go to City Council on August 16.
3. LOT SPLIT REQUEST: L.S. #82-04, BY A. OSCAR CARLSON: Split off the
le� ster yT 8 feet of the vacated alley adjacent to Lots 20, 27, and 22,
Block 7,Onaway, and add it to the Easterly 8 feet of vacated a71ey adjacent
to Lots 5, 6, and 7, Block 7, Onaway, the same being 7753 Beech Street and
7752-56 Elm Street N.E.
Mr. boardman stated there was quite a history as to how these two buildings were
connected. He stated the proposal is to purchase the building that has been
spread out across an alley and covers two lot areas, one off Beech Street and
one off Elm Street, and then split the building, turning over a portion of the
building on Lots 21 and 22 to the building on Lots 6 and 7.
Mr. Boardman stated where the problem comes in is that because they are putting
a new lot line in and there was never a zero lot line variance for a bui7ding
setback to a property line (which was not necessary at that time, because the
property in between was owned by the building owner), the petitioner is also
going to have to request a variance. Because of scheduling, there is somewhat
of a problem with the variance procedure and it wouTd be mid-September by the time
it gets to City Council. The reason for this is the meetings of the Appea7s
Commission and Planning Comnission do not jive in order to get it to the City
Council by the end of August. If the Planning Commission approves this lot split,
he would suggest they recommend the lot split requesi be conditioned upon the
variance approval by the Appeals Commission.
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, JULY 14, 1982 PAGE 4
Mr. Oquist asked why the two walls couldn't be knocked out and the area turned
back into an alley.
Mr. Jim Benson stated he has been involved back to the time these buildings were
connected and is now representing Keith Boulais and A. Oscar Carlson, who are
the new owners. He Stated that when the two buildings were connected together,
the walls were constructed of concrete masonry, the floors are poured concrete
floors, so it is fully improved real estate. He stated that when you are inside
the building and passing from one building to another, you hardly realize the
buildings were ever separated. He stated it would be too expensive to tear up
the concrete floor, concrete walls, and roof, so the 7ogic is just to detach the
b�ilding and bring it back and concrete the wall up, making virtually two separate
buildings again. This would create a zero lot line situation, which is common in
the Onaway District. He stated the two buildings were originally huilt separately,
so everything is separate--parking lots, utilities, water mains, etc.
MOTION BY MR. SABA� SECONDED BY MR. KONDRICK� TO RECOMMEND TO CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL
OF LOT SPLIT REQUESTr L.S. �82-04� BY A, OSCAR CARLSON� TO SPI,IT OFF THE WESTERLY

RECEIVE JULY 1 1982, HUMAN RESOURCES COMMISSION MINUTES:
MOTION BY MS. VAN DAN, SECONDED BY MS. GABEL� TO RECEIVE THE JULY Z, Z982,
HUMAN RESOURCES COMMISSION MINUTES.
Ms. van Dan states she had gone to the July 12 City Council meeting, because
the City Council had received the Planning Comnission's June 23 minutes which
included a motion and discussion regarding the funding process. She stated there
were a number of very impassioned, good presentations from the public. She
stated Barbara Hughes spoke representing the citizens of Fridley as well as a
board member of one of the organizations. Dick Young, President of S.A.C.A.,
gave an excellent presentation, and there was a representative fran The Alexandra
House. She stated a number of organizations gave presentations. She staied both
Peter Treuenfels and Brian Goodspeed from the Human Resources Commission spoke,
and she also spoke.
Ms, van Dan stated they were a71 real7y emphasizing two areas: (1) The fact
that the City Council's decision not to do any funding was done so suddenly after
all tf�e applicants had gone through a very lengtF�y and expensive process of pre�
senting funding requests. If the City Council fe7t they were not going to do any
funding in ]983, they should have given prior notice; although the Mayor and the
Council members did indicate they felt it was an understood fact that city funding
was not going to be an ongoing permanent funding process and that it could be
stopped. She stated somewhere along the line communicaiion has not been the best,
because she felt it was understood there would be funding if funds were available,
but no one expected the funds to be cut short so unexpectedly. (2) They questioned
priorities and respectfully requested the City Council to sincerely review some
of the things being considered in the 1983 budget and to remember that people
are the most valuable human resource in the community and anything the City can
do to maintain the dignity and the welfare of the citizens of the community
should be considered.
Ms. vam Dan stated that in the July 6 Parks & Recreation Commission minutes,
Dick Young had questioned the validity of the City providing funding for the
city band and Northeast Chamber Ensemble. She stated she had not been aware
there was that kind of funding.
Ms. van Dan stated one of the important things in the funding process is that
the Commission encourages the organizations to go out to every possible source of
funding, and these organizations do. However, many funding grants are based on
community support, such as matching grants, so if the community does not give
anything, the organizations lose double.

Ms. van Dan stated that at the City Council meeting, she had the feeling that
all the Council members understood the concerns being expressed and indicated
they may really give this serious consideration at the time of budget review,
Ms. van Dan stated the Human Resources Commission members have all expressed
the opinion that the funding review process is the most interesting meeting of
the whole year. She felt if the Commission has been asked to take on the
responsibility of reviewing funding requests, they should be involved in the
whole process for any type of city funding and not jusi the service organizations.
Ms, van Dan stated the Human Resources Commission rea7ly felt very strongly that
S.A.C.A. is a very worthy project and shou7d get as much support from the City
as possible because 50% of those served by this organization come from Fridley.
