Ms. Schnabel stated that at the Sept. 29, 1982, Planning Commission meeting,
the Commission members had received a copy of a letter from Nancy Hendrickson,
President of the Fridley Chamber of Commerce, in which Ms. Nendrickson was
requesting the City Council to consider carefully the importance of losing
Cub Foods from the City of Fridley. Ms. Gabel had stated that Ms. Schaaf, a
member of the Chamber's Board of Directors, had said the letter was not written
with the agreement of the Board of Directors and that the letter was not repre-
sentative of the entire Chamber of Commerce.
Ms. Schnabei stated she had received another letter from Ms. Hendrickson in
response to the position taken by Ms. Schaaf. Ms. Hendrickson stated that of
the 11 Chamber of Comnerce Board of Directors, 10 were in agreement to send a
letter to the City supporting the rezoning. Ms. Hendrickson stated Ms. Schaaf
could not be reached for her vote. When 10 voted in favor of the letter support-
ing the rezoning, Ms, Hendrickson stated they felt that was a majority of the
Board of Directors and, therefore, represented the majority of the membership,

K1l.HHKU N, I;AHLSUN: VdCdtE Longfellow Street between Lots 18-23 in
B oc 5, and etween Lots 24-27, Block 4, Spring Brook Park, and vacate
alley in Block 4, Spring Brook Park,between Lots 22 and 23, and Lots 24-27,
all East of Burlington Northern railroad tracks, to be part of equipment
yard at 7900 Beech Street N.E.
Mr. Boardman stated the request was for the vacation of the street located a7ong
the railroad tracks behind Park Construction's main facility. He stated there
is a 35' sanitary sewer easement and a Minnegasco easement across that street.
He stated the City would request that those two easements be retained and to
request a 30 ft. drainage/uti7ity and access easement on the westerly 30 ft.
Mr. Boardman stated it was the City's concern that at some point in time, the
City may be looking at trying to divert some of the flow from Stoneybrook and
5pring Brook and the Nature Center. It may be an alternative to go along the
railroad line so they may need 30 ft. of right-of-way to do a piping system to
divert some of the flow.
Mr. Boardman stated another concern was access to �he back lots. Park Construc-
tion owns most of the property to the north and south, but some of the property
in between is not owned by Park Construction, so the City would like to retain
some access easement into the back area,
Mr. Carlson stated he did knot know how many easements were needed� because
there are already three easements across that property. He stated North Suburban
Sanitary Sewer District has an easement, NSP has an easement, and he had not been
aware that Minnegasco also had an easement. Why does the City of Fridley need
another easement?
Mr. Boardman stated the City is not asking for an additional easement; their
easement would go over the top Of the present easements.
Mr. Carlson stated the property is unbuildable and unusable at this time, All
they want to use the property for is storage. He stated he owns and pays taxes
on that property, and he would be opposed to the City of Fridley taking away
property that would make that property unusable. He stated he would not be
opposed to an u�derground drainage system, but he was opposed to an �pen ditch,
With an underground drainage system, the property would still be usable. He
stated he was not opposed io the access easement.
Mr, Boardman stated that if it was possible for the City to go underground
with a drainage system, then he would not be opposed to that alternative.
. Mr, Carlson stated he also p7ans to put up the proper screening and plantings

PLANNIN6 COMMISSION MEETING, OCTOBER 27, 1982 PAGE 4
Ms. Schnabel stated that on page 7 of the Parks & Recreation Cortmission minutes,
the Parks & Recreation Commission had made a motion recomnending that, "for both
the Northeast Chamber and the Fridley City Band, the City continue to underwrite
the cost of the music and supplies, but only to underwrite t/4 of the directors'
salaries--3 months into the coming year which would a71ow them time to prepare
for the phase-out of the direCtors' salaries".
Ms. Gabel stated she was appalled that the members of the Northeast Chamber
contribute only $94.50 to their group. She thought that was totally out of line,
Ms. Schnabel stated that in the Oct. 7, 1982, Numan Resources Cortgnission minutes,
it was mentioned that because of the cuLs in funding, volunteerism is going to be
needed to pick up the void from these budget cuts. She felt both the Northeast
Chamber and the Fridley City Band should be taking a harder look at trying to
help support themselves financially, as well as through volunteers.
Ms. van Dan stated she couldn't get over the amount of funding these groups
are requesting.
Mr. Saba stated there are many groups in the community that do a lot for the
comnunity and yet are self-supporting. He was referring to such organizations
as the 4-H groups and the Scout groups. Ne stated it really bothered him that
with the City under a tight budget, the Northeast Chamber and the City Band
stilt expect the City to provide funding.
Ms. Gabel stated she felt the amount requested was totally unjustified, She
stated that if each of the 40 members would contribute
$40 per year, they would have enough money to pay their own director and be self-
supporting. She stated she felt both groups were very worthwhile and did contri-
bute something to the corrrnunity, but she also felt they should be in the position
of being self-supporting,
Mr. Oquist stated another question is whether these groups are sanctioned by the
City of Fridley or are they just volunteer groups? He stated he did not think
the City had ever really chartered the band as an official city band, but that
it was a volunteer group that get together because they enjoy it.
Ms. Gabel stated the City did not fund a lot of worthwhile organizations that
get down to the basics, and she,did not feel the City should fund the Northeast
Chamber Ensemble or the fridley City Band.
MOTION BY MS. GABEL� SECONDED BY A42. OQUZST� THAT THE PLANNING COMMISSION RECOG—
NIZES THE VALUE OF THE ARTS; HOWEVER� DUE TO BUDGET CUTBACKS� TNE PLANNING

MOTZON BY MR. SABA, SECONDED BY MS, VAN DAN� TO RECEIVE TXE SEPTEMBER 28� 1982,
ENERGY G1�MMZSSION MINUPES.
UPON A VOICE VOTE� ALL VOTING AYE� CNAIRWOMAN SCHNABEL DECLARED THE MOTION
CRRRIED UNRNIMOUSLY,
Ms. Schnabel stated that regarding the request for
2; St., the Energy Comnission had made a motion on
Council that the request for stop signs be denied.
stop signs at 45th Ave. &
page 7 to recor�nend to City
Mr, Saba stated that as far as the Energy Comnission could determine, there has only
been one accident at this intersection, and because of that accident, it has
created concern in the neighborhood which is understandable, However, in looking
at that neighborhood, on the Fridley side, the Energy Coiranission felt yield signs
are predominant and are consistent in the neighborhood. He stated 45th Ave. is
approx. 3-4 blocks long. He stated the Energy Commission is definitely opposed
to a 4-way stop.
Mr, Saba stated that at their Oct. 26th meeting, the Energy Comnission discussed
this again because they had received sane new information from the Columbia
Heights Traffic Control Comnission. 7he C�lumbia Heights Traffic Control Commission
had recomnended that there was a tree obstruction that should be removed. He
stated the Energy Commission had made another motion at the Oct. 26th meeting
recommending to the City Council that the obstruction be removed through trimming
of the tree and that the City of Columbia Heights be asked to replace their stop
sign with a yield sign to be consistent with tfie neighborhood, He stated stop
signs are not used anywhere else along 45th Ave. until you get down to Main St.
Ms, van Dan stated she had parked near this intersection during a busy traffic
time to observe the traffie. She stated she found it very interesting that of
the people coming from the north on 2; St. to the yield sign, most of the people
stopped and looked for traffic, while the people coming from the south on 2? St.
to the stop sign went through the stop sign.
Mr. Saba stated that in the study, "Energy Conservation to Improve Traffic
Measures, it points out that stop signs give a false sense of security because
people assume everyone will stop. He stated he thought for the City Council to
take out the yield sign and put up a stop sign in response to the petition from
the neighborhood would serve no use �rhatsoever a�d may cause more of a hazard
than there is now.

CARRSED UNANIMOUSLY.
Mr. Saba stated the Energy Commission has decided to go forward in response to
their educational goa7 and are going to try to get more educational programming
through video tapes and s]ide shows on cable TV. He stated that, as a beginning,
they are going to have a demonstration on "Energy Saving Window 7reatments" by
Ms. Lynn Ihrke, County Extension Agent, Nane Economics/fami]y Living, U. of M„
at their Nov. 23rd Energy Commission meeting, He stated they plan to video tape
this demonstration for showing on cable TV. He stated the public wi]] be invited,
and he would like to extend an invitation to the Planning Commission mer�bers to
attend.
7. RECEIVE OCTOBER 7, 1982, HUMAN RESOURCES COMMISSIOP� MINUTES:
MOTION BY MS, VAN DAN� SECONDED BY MR, OQUZST� TO RECEIVE THE OCTOBER 7, 1982,
HUMAN RESOURCES COMMISSION MZNUTES.
Ms, van Dan stated both the International Year of Disabled Persons Project
Committee, which conducted a handicapped survey and is preparing a report,
and the Accessibility Project Comnittee, which surveyed the business cortmunity
for accessibility and is in the process of compiling an accessibility guidebook,
have been tremendous corn�nittees, and every member of those committees should be
commended for a great job, along with Mary Cayan, Staff person, and Scott Wheeler,
Planning Intern. She stated both comnittees have spent a tremendous amount of
time compiling data and getting vo]unteers.
Ms, van Dan stated the National Office on Disability has a$25,000 Awards Compe-
tition in observance of the completion of the 1982 National Year of Disabled
Persons, and the Human Resources Commission wiii be pursuing the awards compe-
tition for both the Accessibility Project Comnittee and the IYDP Project Committee.
Ms. Schnabel stated the accessibility guidebook was a tremendous project to
take on. She stated the Human Resources Canmission should be commended for pur-
suing it and the project committee should be commended for their work on it.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTZNG AYE, CXAIRWOMAN SCHNABEL DECLARED THE MOTION
CARRIED UNANSMDUSLY.
Ms, van Dan stated that on page 4, the Human Resources Commission made a motion
recorrmending to City Council the establishment of a No-Fault Grievance Procedure
comnittee. She stated this, too, wou]d be a total7y voJunteer committee that
would operate essentialiy independent�y of the Numan Resources Commission and
city government, However, the City does have to give its approval, even though
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, OCTOBER 27, 1982 PAGE 7
the City would not be invulved. She stated three of the Comnission members
have attended the training sessions, and there are a number of refresher
courses and training sessions set up between now and January so anyone
interested could attend. She thought it would provide a tremendous service to
the people of Fridley. .
Mr. Boardman stated that after the City establishes the committee, all that
would be needed fran the City are some initial mailing costs and the cost for
the City Attorney to review the waiver document that both parties would have
to sign.
Mr. Oquist asked why the City of Fridley would even want to have a No-Fault
6rievance Procedure co�renittee.
Ms. Schnabel stated she felt the key point was that this committee would be
an arm of the State Department of Human Rights and really had nothing to do
with the City of Fridley,other than the City giving its approva] for the
comnittee to operate in the City as recommended by the Human Resources Commission.
Ms, van Dan stated she would like the Planning Comnission to recomnend to the
City Council that those interested in becoming involved in this process be
granted the opportunity to do so.

Lampert Lumber to increase the square footage for a free standing sign from
144 sq, ft, to 176 sq. ft. to allow a 4 ft. x 8 ft, lighted sign, was out of
line. The motion to approve this variance request failed at the Appeals
Comnission meeting by a vote of 2 for and 3 against. She stated Lampert Lumber
is blatantly ignoring city ordinances, and she thought it was time to put a stop
to it.

I. CENTER CITY PROJECT
A. Kurt Schrupp, Fridley,�aycees - Request to use liardware Building
for Halloween (See Executive Director's Memo #82-74j
Mr. Boardman stated Mr.•Schrupp was representing the Fridley Jaycees
who are requesting the use of the hardware building for Halloween. He
stated that at this time, they do not have any tenant or lease for that
building, and since the building is sitting empty, it may be in the
HRA's best public interest to let the Jaycees utilize the building for
a haunted house, The HRA'would not be paying for any electricity and
the Jaycees have their own insurance coverage.
Mr. Schrupp stated they have contacted NSP to hook up electricity,
and that will be billed to the Fridley Jaycees. Through the Minnesota
Jaycees, they have adequate liability insurance for all members in the
NOUSIN6 & REDEYELOPMENT AUTHORI7Y MEE7ING, OCTOBER 79, 7982 PAGE 2
state as far as any project they are running. The only additional
thing they wili have to purchase is the dram shop liability, but there
will be no liquor; it is strictly a fundraiser, The Frid�ey Jaycees
are going to be donating the funds to cerebral palsy and Aid to Retarded
Citizens, so they feel it is a very worthwhile project.
Mr. Schrupp stated that since he cannot remember anyone in Fridley
having anything like this, he thought it would he a nice thing to have
for the families in the fridley area. The people in charge of this
project are basically tfie Columbia Heigfits Jaycees. Tfie reason the
Columbia Heights Jaycees approached the Fridley Jaycees to co-sponsor
this project is because they lost the building they were using in
Columbia Heights. They came to Fridley to see if anything was available
in Fridley and if the Fridley Jaycees would work witfi them on the project.
The Fridley Jaycees accepted the co-sponsorship of the project, and
that is why he is approacfiing the HRA with thls request, de stated they
think the location of the hardware building is excellent because it is
accessible, and there is plenty of parking.
Mr. Commers asked if they would be putting up any partitions inside
the building.
Mr. Schrupp stated they will be putting up temporary partitions; however,
they will guarantee that the building will 6e cleaned up and returned to
its original condition,
Mr. Commers stated his one concern was to make sure the insurance policy
had adequate coverage for any kind of accident. He asked if the Jaycees
would provide the HRA with a copy of that policy and make sure the policy
is adequate.
Mr. Schrupp stated they would be happy to do that. Also, to alleviate
any responsibility from the City, they would be willing to have the City
draw up an informal lease of some kind where the Jaycees would pay $1 for
the rent, basically, and the Jaycees would be totally liable,
Mr. Boardman stated he would check with Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, to
see what was the best way to handle it.

REQUEST BY THfi FRIDLEY JAYCEES FOR TXE USE OF THE XARDWARE BUZLDING

HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTNORITY MEETIN6, OCTOBER 19 1982 PAGE 3
B. Phase III - Discussion (Executive Director M�no �82-75)
Mr. Boar�nan stated this memo was to update the HRA members. In the
memo he stated that since the HRA formally withdrew the offical right
of development from Barthel Construction, Mr. Paul Klaverkamp, attorney
representing Fred Levy, fias met with Mr. Herrick and h�mself to discuss
the affects the redevelopment district is having on his client's ability
to tease space and maintain existing leases in the centers he owns,
Mr. Boardman stated he was under the impression that Mr. Klaverkamp was
going to be at this meeting to discuss what happened on Phase III, but
in talking to Mr. Klaverkamp that evening, Mr. Klaverkamp had made the
determination it would �ot be in his client's best interest to be at
this meeting.
Mr. Boardman stated Mr. Klaverkamp felt his client had a claim against
the HRA because of actions the HRA had take� in the establishment of a
reAevelopment district. It was Mr. Herrick's position at this time that
they really have no legal claim against the HRA for the establishment of
the redevelopment district, and Mr. Herrick felt very confident that
Mr. Klaverkamp would find it very difficult to show that a hardship does
exist. In the meeting, he and Mr. Herrick told Mr. Klaverkamp they will
d� everything in their power to notify the tenants when things are and
are not happening, but they didn't feel he had a legal basis by which he
wanted the HRA to remove them from the district.
Mr, Boardman stated he has met with representatives from Frank's Nursery,
and Frank's Nursery is very interested in doing a center and becoming
the anchor tenant of the center. At this time, he had no further
information.
C. Parking Lot Property Lease from City Council - Discussion
(Memo on City Council/HRA Meeting of Sept. 27, 1982; Executive Director
Memo #82-76)
Mr. Commers stated he had not been able to attend that meeting and asked
the other HRA members what they felt came out of that meeting and what
the HRA's position should be with regard to the parking lot lease.
Mr. Prieditis stated no definite decision was made. The basic question
was whether this should be an outright purchase by the HRA.
Ms. Svendsen stated she had the impression the City Council felt very
strongly that any kind of •terms for purchasing the parking lot would
have to be the same type of terms they would get anywhere else and that
the City Council did not want to subsidize in any way the HRA's purchas-
ing of the parking lot.
iOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AOTHORITY MEETiN6, OCTOBER 19, 1982 PAGE 4
Mr. Commers stated when the HRA and the City Councit talked about the
2% over prime, the HRA was talking about leasing or paying the same
interest rate they would be getting from Mr. Haggerty's group. He
asked if that had been discussed at this meeting on Sept. 27.
Mr. Boardman stated it was discussed with the City Manager, Mr. Qureshi,
and Mr. Qureshi did not and would not promote that type of project. The
City Manager's position and his position to the City Council is that
the HRA ha� the money, and the HRA should make a direct payment on the
property. The only condition the City Manager looked at and thought
was feasibte was one that would be a normal type of feasibility,and that
was what was presented to the City Council. The City Council said they
wouldn't mind going on a contract on the land, but they want a contract
that isn't going to put them in any position for criticism for subsi-
dizing the Center City project with tax dollars.
Mr. Comners stated that in terms of the overall concept, it is probably
not that critical whether the HRA has a contract or makes an outright
cash purchase. The other side of it is that when you make a cash pur-
chase, you usually get a discount. He stated that in order to resolve
the problem, maybe they should just purchase the land.
Ms. Svendsen stated that this situation does give the HRA an indication
of how the City Council feels about these kinds of things.
Mr. Commers agreed. He stated that if the City has that feeling a little
bit about some of the development projects that are being undertaken and
their inability to give the HRA any real meaningful assistance, maybe the
HRA is going to have to relook at sane of these thinqs. It happened with
the plaza, and here is another example where it is happening.
(Mr. Prairie arrived at 8:58 p.m.)
Mr. Prieditis stated the idea of a discount on the purchase price was
intriguing.
Mr. Commers stated maybe the City Council should use the money for a
contribution to the plaza project.
Mr. Boardman stated it was something that could be proposed to the City
Council. He stated if the HRA wanted to make a proposal or counter pro-
pr�sal to the City Council, they could do it at the Oct. 25th City
Council meeting.
Mr. Commers stated it was probably better to make the outright cash
purchase, but he thought the City Council should be forewarned that the
HRA is not just going to be footing totally themselves a several hundred
thousand dollar deal for whatever reasons the City Council feel they
/
HOUSING b REDEYELOPMENT AUTNORITT MEETIN6 OCTOBER 79 1982 PAGE 5
cannot contribute. He stated if the City Council wants to make a
comnitment to the City of Fridley like the HRA has, they are going to
have to do so, and if it involves their being afraid of political
problems, they are going to have to face that. It cor�es down to what
kind of comnitment the City Council wants to make to Lhe City. The
; HRA recognizes its responsibility and does carry the big share of the
- burden, but the City Council has to make some contribution of some
significance. The HRA has had meeings with the City Council over the
plaza, and the City Council has always said "no".
Mr. Prairie stated the HRA is bending ta meet the City Co�ncil's require-
ments this time, but that is not always going to be the case. They have
to draw the line somewhere.
Mr. Commers stated he would like it recerded in the minutes that the HRA
has discussed this and is looking towards some kind of significant contri-
bution from the City in the future in the development of the Center City
project, and� specifically, the plaza,
Mr. Commers stated the HRA unanimously aqreed to acquire the narkinv 1
ce.
II. NORTH AREA DISTRICT
A. Receive Letter from Jerry Paschke (Executive Director Memo �82-77)
Mr. Boardman stated Mr. Paschke is requesting assistance on soil
correctiort in the developnent of his property at 79th & Ranchers Road.
He stated Mr. Paschke had intended to be at the meeting, but since he
was not present, he would recommend this item be continued.

MOTION CARRIED UNANIMDUSLY.
III. MOORE LAKE PROJECT
A. Condominium Project (Executive Director Memo �82-78)
Mr. Comners stated that part of the purpose of the meeting with the
City Council on Sept. 27 was also to discuss the manner in which this
project should be undertaken.
Mr. Prieditis stated the City Council expressed a concern at that meeting
on the reaction of the public, particularly the residents near this
property. .
HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETING, OCTOBER 19, 1982 PAGE 6
Mr, Prairie stated some of the councilpersons also expressed concern
about any condemnation.
Ms. Svendsen stated it was her understanding tfiat one of the first steps
would be to contact the property owners of the property involved.
Mr. Boardman stated they wil7 be contacting the involved property
owners and they will be notifyin9 out into the neighborhood. How far
has not yet been determined, and the HRA should discuss this at their
Nov. 18 meeting. He stated they will be laying out some of the informa-
tion to be shown at the public hearing, and they want to get input back
fran the HRA at their meeting.

B. HRA Financial Report
The HRA members received and reviewed the financial report. They
requested a memo from Sid Inman regarding the grants to the City for
the North Area and the Moore Lake area.
The HRA members aiso questioned the breakdown of the categories under
each of the programs listed--Personal Services, Supplies, and Land &
Capital Improvement. They felt it would be helpful to have some kind
of breakdown of categories to describe them more fully.
V. OTHER BUSINESS:
A. Approval of G. M, Hanson Co. for HRA Auditor
Mr. Commers stated the G. M. Hanson Co, has been the HRA's auditor in
the past. He stated he felt the fee of $1,100 seemed reasonable.

B. Request for Funds from NAHRO (National Association of HRA Officials)
for Legislative Assistance (Executive Director Memo #82-79)
Mr. Commers stated the Minnesota NAHRO is requesting a pledge of $250
from the HRA to carry on their legislative lobbying efforts. He
questioned whether the HRA, as a tax exempt body, could contribute to
lo6bying,
Mr. Boardman stated he would check with Mr. Herrick on whether the
HRA could contribute to lobbying.
Mr. Commers stated this item would be continued, and they could discuss
it further when they had received a report from Mr. Boardman.
C. Certificate of Completion - HUD - Large Family Project
The HRA received the letter addressed
the Community Development 81ock Grant
Certificate of Completion showing that
paid out for the Large Family Project.
D, Memo �82-73 on Murtgage Bond Meeting
to Mr. Boardman from HU� regarding
and a copy of the fully executed
$119,999,59 was received and
Mr. Boardman stated he attended a meeting in Coon Rapids on the Housing
Mortgage Revenue Bonds. They are looking at the possibility of selling
revenue bonds within the County. The City Bank has been an interested
party in this and is willing to sell in a minimum of $20 million packages.
He stated it is very difficult for one city to put together a package for
$20 million worth of housing construction loans at one time; therefore,
they are looking at the possibility of doing some kind of combination
with other . sities of the County of Anoka. He stated there will be
another meeting on Fri., Oct. 22, and he would keep the HRA informed.
Meno from Sid Inman - HRA Financial Reporting
Mr. Commers stated Rick Pribyl's memo which was also included in the
agenda raised a question regarding the separation of powers between
the City and the HRA. The reason the auditor's fee of $1,1000 is so
reasonable is because apparently the City Staff is going to be more
involved in the HRA's accounting. He was not sure what that was going
to mean in terms of time and dollars. He thought the HRA should find
that out and should get an estimate or a purchase order fram the City
in order for the HRA to determine what it is going to cost them. They
may find out it may be mor,e feasible for the HRA to have their own
accountant.
Mr, Boardman suggested this item be continued until Mr. Inman and
Mr. Herrick could be at the meeting to discuss this. He stated he would
put it on the next agenda.
HOUSING & REDEUELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETiNG, OCTOBER 19, 1982 PAGE 8
Mr. Cortmers stated he would like to have Mr. Inman and Mr. Herrick
prepared to give an opinion on the "oversight responsibiiity" (referred
to in Mr. Pribyl's memo), division of responsibility, and the estimates
for implementing this in terms of cost.
F. City Council Reso7ution #82-1982
Mr. Boardman stated this was a resolution approved by the City Council
on Sept. 27 "waiving all application fees pertaining to the city
approval process directly applied for by the fridley HRA'. He stated
it was for the HRA's information.
G. Von Klug & Associates
Mr. Comners stated that in a letter from William Von Klug, Relocation
Consultant, he is recommending the City hire Patchin Appraisers to make
fixture appraisals in the Center City project.
It was the concensus of the HRA
move a ea an retain Patc in
H. Letter Seht to Vassar & Barthel for Ron Schoneman
thorized to
At the last HRA meeting, Mr. Boardman was asked to write a letter to
Mr. Vassar supporting Mr. Ron Schoneman's position in trying to get
his deposit money back, Mr. Boardman stated he had written that letter,
but there had been no response.
I. Letter to Don Pol7ard of Cub Foods
Mr. Boardman stated this was a letter to Cub Foods from Kent Hill,
Economic Development Assistant, regarding the soil conditions of the
area at Slst & University. According to the City engineers, the soil
is not all that bad and could be corrected with some assistance from
the HRA.
J. Letter from VFW
Mr, Boardman stated they have been working with the VFW regarding the
removal and relocation of the monument in Eisenhower Park. The VFW
membership voted to move it to Moore Lake Park by the flagpole. He
stated he needed the authorization to go ahead and get bids on moving
the monument. He stated it will probably need to be done within the
next couple of weeks. .
It was the concensus of the HRA members to authorize the Executive

1. JAY PARK SKATING RINK PETITION:
Dr. Boudreau stated that at the last meeting, the residents of Jay Park had
presented the Commission with a petition to request an ice rink at Jay Park.
He stated the Commission members still have to make a recommendation on this
request,
Dr. Boudreau stated that at the last meeting, the Cortmission had requested
he check about the security light that was out at Jay Park, He stated he
did contact NSP, and that light sh�uld be fixed. The Commission had also
asked him to get more up-to-date information on numbars of children in this
particular area. He stated Roger Schmaus, Principal of Stevenson Elementary I
School, had informed him that there are approx. 5o children in grades K- 6
that are bussed from that area, and those are the children who would most
likely use a general ice skating rink,
Dr. Boudreau stated the Cortmission members had also requested a traffic count
on Mississippi St. He stated there is no updated traffic count on Mississippi.
It is one of the crossroads in the City, and the traffic is equal to similar
streets such as Osborne and 73rd Ave.
Dr. Boudreau stated he has looked at the area in Jay Park again. They are
sti]] ta]king about an area, approx. 75' x l0�', depending upon the depth of
snow which would make the area even smaller. They are talking about ingress
and egrees to the general skating area to be located on the west side of the
park. The security light would be the light to provide lighting for an ice
skating area to eliminate additional expenses. As pointed out in Curt Dahlberg's
memo, the expense would be around $3,000 a year to just maintain the rink.
Mr. Young stated that maybe it would be less expensive and more practical to
sealcoat the basketball court and then flood over the top of the court, It
would save them the cost of moving the dirt, and they wouldn't rµin the turf.
They could try this on a one-year basis to see what kind of usage the rink got.
He stated Columbia Heights has flobded their tennis and basketball courts for
years to use for rinks. He realized it would only provide an ice area of
approx. 60' x 75' Was this a practical solution?
Dr. Boudreau stated he has discussed this with Curt Dahlberg because they
have talked about experimenting with freezing over blacktop. One problem is
they would end up color coding the area about every 2 years. Also, looking
at the size of the space, if there is very much snow, the area is dramatically
reduced. To freeze over the court is just as expensive as to clear the snow
fran the whole west side, because the equipment still has to cane in and they
have to maintain it. It is only about 10 minutes longer for a larger space,
He also thought it would be an inferior space to try and maintain.
Mr. A11en agreed the west side was the only place for a rink, but there
would definitely need to be some work as far as elevation.
PARKS 8 RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 25 7982 PAGE 3
Ms. Matson stated that since Fridley has never tried flooding a court, why
not try it. even if it is a amaller area? She felt the children would be
happy with a 10' x 10' rink since they have never had any rink before in
their park,
Dr. Boudreau stated the money is not in the budget for this year. He stated
no matter what size the ice is, it still costs the same to maintain, even if
they flood the blacktop. He stated if they are going to do anything, he
,i would rather see them go in and rework the whole west area and do it correctly.
Since the ball diamond is not used, they could remove the backstop, grade the
whole west area, and make an official skating area. In the summertime, they
could use it for soccer and open football. He stated that was his recommendation.
Ms. Mattson stated that would be terrific. She stated they are not at the
meeting to ask the Commission or the City to do something right now; they
are just asking that something be done for their park.
The Commission members agreed with Dr. Boudreau's recanmendation.

UNANZMOUSLY. �
1. ADDITIONAL INFORMATIDN ON STOP SIGN PETITION FOR 45TH AND 2; STREET:
Mr. Deblon stated the Commission members had additional information received
from the City of Columbia Heights in the form of a letter from Frederick Salsbury,
Director of Public Works/City Engineer, and the minutes of the Columbia Heights
Traffic Commission, both dated Qct, 5, 1982. Mr, Deblon stated that at the
Energy Commission's last meeting. they had recomnended that the request for stop
signs at 45th Ave. and 2� St. be denied.
Mr. Deblon stated that in Mr. Salsbury's letter, he stated tfie Columbia Heights
Traffic Comnission had reviewed the petition the City of Fridley had received
from the residents. The Traffic Commission reviewed the conditions that now
exist and received a report fran the police chief stating that no accidents had
been reported at this intersection in Columbia He:r�hts for the last five years.
The Columbia Heights Traffic Commission "recomnends that the City of Fridley
remove the existing 'yield' sign on southbound 2; St, and replace it with a'stop'
sign. Columbia Heights currently has a stop sign on northbound 22 St. In addi-
tion, they recomnend that the City of Fridley address the apparent visibility
problem in the nartheast corner of this intersection for southbound traffic on
2� St, looking left. It was noticed by cortmission members that tree branches may
be blocking visibility of oncoming cars from westbound 45th Ave." Mr. Salsbury
had also stated that it was the Traffic Comnission's opinion that this intersection
did not warrant a four-way stop at this time.
ENER6Y COMMISSION MEETING, OCTOBER 26, 1982 PAGE 2
Mr. Saba stated it was his feeling that the City of Fridley should take care of
the obstruction, but he disagreed with the stop sign recomnended by Columbia
Heights. He stated 22 St, is only 3-4 blocks long and the yield sign that
exists now is consistent with the traffic control Fridley is using throughout
that neighborhood. If they were to replace the yield sign,with a stop sign,
then it should be done for every street'in that neighborhood, The only miti-
gating circumstance here is that Columbia Heights has a stop sign across the
street.
Mr, Tessmer stated Columbia Heights should really replace their stop sign with
a yield sign to be consistent with the neighborhood.
Mr, Saba stated that referring back to the study they have on "Energy Conserva- !
tion to Improve Traffic Measures", the study states that in two-way stop inter-
sections, perhaps yield signs or no control would be more appropriate than stop
signs. The study is also talking about an intersection with no obstructed view.
In this intersection, there is an obstructed view, and you cannot yield if you
cannot see the traffic. He stated he felt a yield sign was essentially a stop
sign when you cannot see the traffic. If the obstruction is removed, maybe there �-
would be no need for a stop sign, but the yield sign right now should be acting ,�
as a stop sign. ;

Mr. Saba stated that for the sake of consistency and for the sake of staiing with
the trend in this neighborhood, he would like to see Columbia Heights t�1:e down
their stop sign and put up a yield sign.
Mr, Jordan stated if removing the obstruction meant chopping down or demolishi�g
a nice tree, then he would be in favor of a stop sign. If the City can trim away
the obstruction neatly, then he would be in favor of a yield sign.

2. DISCUSSION ON POSSIBLE EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS ON CABLE TV:
Mr, Saba stated that at the last Comnission meeting, they discussed the passible
programs that could be used on cable TV. They talked about obtaining "7he For-
gotten fundamentals of the Energy Crisis" and showing it an cable TV on a regular
ENERGY COhNISSION MEETING, OCTOBER 26, 1982 PAGE 3
basis. They thought possible programs could be obtained from vocational
schools and NSP.
Mr. Saba stated putting educational programs on cable TV would take care of a
large portion of the Commission's responsibility in terms of education.
Mr. Jordan stated it would be nice if the Comnission could come up with some
type of logo for the City of Fridley Energy Cortm3ssion, put that logo on the
, TV screen, and then ptay one of the video tapes from "Ask NSP". People watching
could listen to a wealth of fnformation on cable TV at various times during the
day,
Mr. Saba and Mr. Tessmer thought that was an excellent suggestion.
Mr. Deblon stated the Commission members had a copy of a letter dated Sept. 1
from Lynn Ihrke, County Extension Agent. Home Economics/Family Living. who
conducts pragrams on Energy Saving Window Treatments. She asked if the City of
Fridley wauld like ta have such a program during the month of November.
Mr. Deblon stated he felt it would be a good idea to invite Ms. Ihrke to the
Nov. 23 Energy Comnission meeting to put on this program. They could advertise
through the available media and open it up to the public, other city commissions,
and Ciiy Council members. They could also video tape the program for showing
later on cable TV.

UNANIMOUSLY.
Mr. Deblon suggested the possibility of non-stop ener� programming on Channel 30
during the month of November in order to show energy-related educationa3
prograimnina.
Mr. Saba stated that was a good idea, but it was almost too late to organize an
educational program for November. He stated this type of programming would not
need to be limited to the month of November; it could be shown in Dec, or Jan.
He stated the Commission members should start putting together an organized
educational program far cable TV with video tapes, slide shows. etc., in order
to have a month's worth of programming to be shown on cable TV. This should be
put on future agendas.
Mr. Jordan stated they shoutd 5et a goal of obtaining at least two new programs
each month.
Mr. Jordan stated it would be nice if they could come up with some films on
general maintenance that people can do themselves in order to save energy. One
example was how to change and tlean furnace filters. He stated he could work up
a film at Dunwoody on how to ctean furnace filters.

CARRIED UNANZMOUSLY.
1, "ASSESSING DISABILITIES IN FRIDLEY" - PRESENTATION BY LYNN BOERGERHOFF:
Mr. Boergerhoff stated the Comnission members had received copies of the report,
"Assessing Disabilities in Fridley", which was the result of the handicapped
sur ey conducted by the International Year of Disabled Persons Project Comnittee.
He �tai�d both Mary Cayan and Jim Robinson, staff inembers, had worked hard in
put�,`+nq this report together. Mr. Robinson had taken some of the pictures and
had p�pared the graphs and charts that accompany the various sectians.
Ms. Cayan stated this was a xeroxed draft for the Comnission members to review.
The final report will be printed at a printer with heavy stock colored paper
and wi11 be bound on the side. The final copy wi11 look very professional.
Mr. Boergerhoff stated he would appreciate feedback from the Commission members
on the "Summary" sectian. He stated it was his intention to draw some conclusions
from the information received in the survey, and that was much more subjective
than the rest of the report and was more difficult to write. He stated he would
appreciate any comments within two weeks of this meeting.
Ms, van Dan stated that, even as a draft, the report was very informative and
ve�y we11 done. She stated Mr. Boergerhoff and th� whote IYDP project committee
sh;�uld be commended for a tremendous job and for the amount of work spent on this
prbject.
HUMAN RESOURCES COhdNISSION MEETING, NOVEMBER 4, 1482 PAGE 2
Ms. Cayan stated that� regarding the accessibility guidebook, it had not been
ready for presentation to the Cortmission at this meeting. as had originally
been anticipated. It would be presented to the Co�nission by Bob Minton at
their December meeting.
2. NATIONAL OFfICE ON DISABILITY AWARDS COMPETITION APPLICATION DISCUSSION;
Ms. Cayan stated she had put together an outline that could be followed in the
preparation of the application form. She stated she had gone through all the
papers and materials from the past two years that could be sent along with the
" application as documentation.
Ms. Cayan stated that in looking at what the IYDP Committee and the Accessibility
Project Comnittee have accomplished, she thought the goal most appropriate for
them to pursue was "Improve access to housing, buildings, and transportation" in
the Pragram Category for $1,000.
Ms. Cayan stated the main thing the Commissian needed to discuss in putting a
package together was completing the narrative form of the entry. They have to
decide how they vrould use the award money. The $1,000 would have to be spent in
the area of accessibilfty--hoasing, buildings, or transportation, or a combination
of the three.
Mr. Treuenfels stated that regarding accessibility, one thing they have discussed
in the past is the retrofitting of hanes for the disabled. Maybe this money
coutd be used for the retrofitting of a home where the family income is too high
for�government standards to receive grant monies,but is not high enough for the
family to afford to make the changes themselves.
Mr, Boergerhoff stated if there was any discussion of discontinuing the bus
service from Village Green because of cost, that might be an area they could
address.
Ms. Cayan agreed and stated that perhaps a portion of the money could be donated
to heip expand the current bus service or just donated for the operation
of the bus. For example. $1.000 could buy a lot of gas.
Mr. Boergerhoff stated they could probably increase the use of the bus by
increasing the knowledge that it is available and how people can make use of
the service. He did not know how much effort had been made to generate use of
the service ouiside Village Green.
Ms, van Dan stated it had been her thoughL to use the money to start a special
fund so that if funding was cut, that service could continue.
Mr. Boergerhoff stated the establishment of a fund may even encourage donations
from other organizations and sources.
HUMAN RESOURCES COMMISSION MEETING NOVEMBER 4 1982 PAGE 3
Ms. Cayan stated the Comnission will also have to exptain how the funding issues
will be handled by a comnittee. She stated right now anything involving the
bus is handled through the Parks & Recreation Department.
Ms. van Dan stated she thought it should come through the Human Resources Commission.
� Mr. Treuenfels stated the responsible person could be the chairperson of this
Cor,missian and a designated treasurer. The treasurer cou7d be designated by
either the chairperson or the commission. Mr. Boergerhoff stated he would be
_ very interested in serving as treasurer. If they do receive the award money, he
would like to continue his involvement ia this area.
Ms. Cayan stated she would get the application together for review by the
Commission at their Dec. 2 meeting.
Ms.�2ayan stated she would be leaving the employ of the City of Fridley as of
Friday, Nov. 12, to take a new position with the CAP Agency. She stated she
will be working with their volunteer program and their housing and transportation
programs.
Ms. van Dan stated she would like ta thank Ms. Cayan for a71 the work and effort
she has put into these projects. 5he stated she did not know how the City Planning
Department was going to get along without her. She stated she did not know if
anyone in the City has really recognized the things Ms. Cayan has accomplished in
the last three years, but the Human Resources Commission members have recognized
them.
Ms. Cayan stated she has really appreciated the Corrmission's support and has
really enjoyed working with them. She stated they have actomplished a lot
together, and the Human Resources Commission has quite a track record.

The Comn;ssion members reviewed their 1982 goals.
Ms, can Dan stated the Cort�nission members should be comnended as 95% of the
1982 goals have been completed.
HUMAN RE50URCES C9h�1ISSI0N MEETING, NOVEMBER 4, 1982 PAGE 4
Ms, van Dan stated the reconanendation to estabtish the No-Fault Grievance Pro-
cedure comnittee will go before the City Council on Mon., Nov. 8. She quoted
the following statements made in the League of Minnesota Human Riqhts Comnissions
newsietter dated Oct. 30, i982: "Peter Lewon, of the Minnesota Department of
Numan Rights, reported on a recent study by the DHR which showed that they are
. now able to handle only 30% of their caseload. Imagine the outcry if only 30%
of those arrested for DWI were being dealt with; The fact is, Minnesota's Human
Rights Laws are being enforced at only 30% ef.ficiency today. That huge backlog
of cases is stiil �rowing. and by the end of fiscal 1983, wiil probably be about
_ 3400 or more cases."
Ms. van Dan stated the No-Fault Grievance Procedure, if approved by City Council,
will be an ongoing goal for 1983, 7he Commissioners also agreed the affirmative
action goal wou)d be an ongoing goal for 7983--to keep up to date on what the
City is doing in that regard.
Ms, van Dan asked if anyone had any ideas or areas they would iike to see as
goals for 1983.
Mr. Treuenfels stated he was interested in the area of volunteerism wkere citizens
could make a contribution in light of current budget cuts...the idea being that
citizen volunteers could perhaps take up some of the activities the City has been
supporting before these activities are in danger of being etiminated entirely
for lack of funding. He stated he was talking about the areas where funding goes
to staffing. Perhaps volunteers could be found in the carmunity through a survey
or questionnaire, He stated something shauld be done to make the re3ationships
between ihe volunteers and the City as smooth as possible. He felt that in light
of the economic situation, they should be trying to use the human resources in
the community.
Ms, van dan stated that in their agenda packet, the Commission members had
received an interesting packet of information on volunteerism in Minnesota. She
stated on the last page was a"Cortmunity Action Plan" form, She stated it might
be interesting for the Commission members to individually fill this out as to
what each member fee15 volunteers would actually be doing in the community.
Mr. Goodspeed stated that during this election year. Wheelock Whitney had talked
about his probtem with alcoholism. Mr. Goodspeed stated this had sparked his
interest in chemical dependency and what role, if any, the Human Resources
Comnission could play in chemical dependency. Chemical dependency is certainly
a cause of the waste of human resources.
Ms. Cayan stated two new chemicai dependency ceaters have opened in the County
this past year because of the need. 5he stated if the Cortonission decided to
piirsue this, she coutd help them from the CAP Agency.
Mr. Boergerhoff stated he was also interested in ihe area of volunteerism. He
stated he felt the area of volunteerism was so broad, they could apply it to
aimost any area of need they came up with. Some idea of the interest in volun-
HUMAN RESOURCES COMMISSION MEETIN6, NOVEMBER 4, 1982 PAGE 5
teerism was shown through the handicapped survey i� which people expressed a
willingness to serve as volunteers. He stated there are many organizations
available who help groups locate volunteers and work with volunteers from which
the Comnission could obtain information:
Ms. Cayan stated the Anoka County Social Services Dept. is applying for YFM
- (Volunteer for Minnesota) pilot comnunity training which will be provided by
the Minnesota Office on Vniunteer Services (M.O.V.S.). and this might be sane-
thing the Comnission would want to look into.
- The Comnission members agreed on the following three goals for 1983:
Human rights
Volunteerism
Chemical dependency
Mr. Goodspeed stated he would work in the area of�chemical dependency.
Mr. Treuenfels stated he would work in the area of human rights, and Ms. van Dan
and Mr. Boergerhoff stated they would work on volunteerism.

auction in late 1982 or early 1983. It is logical that either Viking Chevrolet
or Strite-Anderson will probably purchase that strip, but the permit cannot
include that 10 ft.
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, NOVEMBER 17, 1982 PAGE 2
Mr. Mark Dooley was in the audience representing Viking Chevrolet. He stated
he was sure that either Strite-Anderson or Viking Chevrolet would purchase that
land or at least pay the back taxes. He stated he had told Mr. Deblon that
Viking Chevro7et would be willing to rope off that 10 ft, strip if that was the
desire of the Planning Comriission and City Council.
Ms. Schnabel stated she would recommend that Mr, Doolety consult with his attor-
ney on what the legal ramifications are of encroaching on the property. 5he
asked how long the lease was with Strite-Anderson.
Mr. Doolety stated it was a month-to-month lease with a 30-day notice �o either
party.
Ms. Schnabe7 stated the Planning Commission had received copies of additional
letters concerning landscaping and signage.
Mr. Deblon stated there were some uncompleted items from an earlier trailer
license, and Staff wou7d like to obtain sane additional ornamental-type land-
scaping to soften the facade of the biacktop, concrete, and cars.
Ms. Schnabel asked if that was the responsibility of the leasee or the leasor.
Mr. Deblon stated the responsibility would ultimately fal] on the leasor because
Viking Chevrolet is displaying the merchandise. He stated there are past develop-
ments that were not built the way the City would like to see them now, because
the code was updated in 1973, So, when ihey get opportunities like this to bring
things up to code, they like to take those opportunities.
Mr. Doolety stated he wou7d be very candid with the Commissi�r members. He stated
if they were talking about landscaping that would run $200-300, Viking would be
glad to do that, but if the City is talking about something much more exteASive,
Viking would not be willing to do that, because of the type of lease they have.
Mr. Svanda stated he had a problem with asking Viking Chevrolet to put in $500
worth of landscaping for something that could last on7y 30 days. He could
appreciate what the City is trying to accomplish, but he couldn't go along with
it.
Mr. Deblon stated there is the possibility of working out some type of cost-
sharing arrangement with Strite-Anderson. He stated there was a stipu]ation on
the trailer license that was granted to Viking in May 1982 that additional screen-
ing and landscaping be used along the west and south boulevards as worked out
with City Staff. According to the information he had, this has not been done.
Ms. Schnabel suggested Staff reassess what the situation really is and work this
out directly with Viking Chevrolet.
Mr. Dooley stated the area is really more of a displ,ay area for their
recreational _vehicles. Any sales would take place at Viking Chevrolet. They
just need the extra space for this display, and they have no plans to put any
type of buiTding on the property.

HEARING CLOSED AT 7:54 P.M.
Mr. Oquist stated that since the special use permit is granted for the property,
he felt they should specify in the motion that when the ]ease between Viking
and Strite-Anderson terminates, the special use permit would also terminate.
He stated he could also understand what Mr. Deblon was saying about getting
some landscaping in this area, but when Viking Chevrolet is looking at only a
30-day lease, it didn't seem reasonable to ask them to do that. Ne thought 5taff
should work that out with Viking, and it should not be part of the motion.

ON�SP �82-15� CENTRRL AUTO PARTS� BY JOHN BUZIC.
UPON A VOICE VOTE� ALL VOTZNG AYE� CHAIRWOMAN SCHNABEL DECLARED THE PUBLIC
HEARING OPEN AT 7a58 P.M.
Mr. Deblon stated the location of this property is just north of 73rd Ave, to
the south of 73z Ave., and just to the w�st of T.H. 65.
Mr. Tom Flaherty, representing Central Auto Parts, stated he was in the process
of trying to purchase the property. He stated the property is not used as a
"junk yard", They use the property to park their over-the-road tr�cks and to
service their equipment, City Staff felt that, in order to continue this type
of use, Central Auto Parts would need a special use permit.
Mr, Deblon stated, to give a little background on this property, the land went
tax forfeit in 1981, the City picked it up and dedicated a drainage easement
through the eastern part of Lot 8, The property was auctioned and bought by
PLANNING COMMISSION MEE7ING, NOVEMBER 17, 1982 PAGE 4
Don Chies in late 1981 or early 1982. Central Auto Parts has been renting the
property for the past 6-7 years. The property is also used for temporary
storage for wrecked cars before the wrecked cars are taken across the street to
be dismantled.
Mr. Flaherty stated their trucks travel over a five-state area picking up damaged
automobiles, so the trucks are loaded when they come in. Often ihe trucks will
sit on the property overnight until ihe automobiles are unloaded. He stated the
property is not used for the storage of auto parts or the dismantling of cars.
That is all done across the street in their bui7ding at 1201 - 73a Ave. Currently,
there is a large amount of construction equipment, trucks and property belonging
to Oon Chies on the property, and Central Auto Parts is currentty using the
building and the parking alongside the building for the parking of their trucks.
Mr. Flaherty stated again that he is in the process of purchasing the property
from Mr. Chies. In the purchase agreement, Mr. Chies is allowed a certain amount
of iime in which to remove his property. 7he purchase agreement is accepted by
both the buyer and seller and is contingent upon approval of the specia7 use permit
by the Planning Commission and City Council.
Mr. Flaherty stated he plans to work with Staff on landscaping. He plans to land-
scape the boulevards, put in screening, a new fence, a rol7ing gate, driveway,
and curbing in order to bring the property up to code, The property is in need of
sorne attention. He stated they will continue to use the property for the storage
and parking of their over-the-road trucks and service their equipment in the
bui]ding.
Mr. Oquist stated he questioned the need to grant a special use permit for a
salvage yard when Mr. Flaherty has no intention of using the property as a salvage
yard, and the City would also rather he didn't use it that way. It is just going
to be used for storage and maintenance of business vehicles.
Mr. Deblon stated the property is still being used as an expansion of the salvage
operation and,therefore, requires a special use permit.
Mr. Flaherty stated on occasion the salvage vehicles will be stored on the
property, and it is possible cars to be salvaged could be on the property a good
part of the time. Staff felt if these cars are going to be on the property,
in order to be in compliance, the special use permit was needed.
Ms. Schnabel stated she agreed with Mr. Oquist. If the property is only going
to be used for the parking and storage of vehicles and not as part of the salvage
part of the business, maybe there is no need for a special use permit. She
understood Staff's interpretation, but she was confused over the need for a
special use permit.
Mr. Oquist stated that without a special use permit, Mr. flaherty couldn't
use the property as an extension of the salvage business, but could continue to
use it as he is now.
Ms. Schnabel agreed and stated that if the special use permit was granted, then
PLNNNING COMMISSION MEETING, NOVEMBER 17, 1982 PAGE 5
Mr. Flaherty cou7d do salvage work on that property. Other�ise, without the
special use permit, he is limited to use that property only for the maintenance
and storage of his business vehicles.
Mr. Kondrick also agreed.
Mr. Deblon stated that right now this is a non-conforming use and a special
use permit is needed to make it a conforming use.
P1r. Oquist stated that if the Commission recanmends approva] of this request,
they should request Staff to provide for City Council an answer to the question
of why a special use permit is really needed.

ON SP #82-Z2� PARK CONSTRUCTION COMPANY� BY CARL OLSON.
UPON A VOICE VOTE� ALL VOTING AYE� CHAIRWOMAN SCHNABEL DECLARE'D THE PUBLIC
HEARING OPEN AT 8:36 P.df.
Mr. Deblon stated Mr. Dick Carlson was in the audience to answer any questions
about this operation.
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, NOVEMBER 17 1982 PAGE 6
Mr. Carlson stated this crushing operation is a new venture for Park Construc-
tion. They plan to bring in concrete materials to be crushed. When they have
accumulated enough materials, they will bring in a crusher and crush this
material, then stockpile it for reuse and sale. There is no way they would have
enough material to keep a crusher going to its full extent. However, there
could come a time when the crusher would be there full time. He stated this
is recycling material that people normally are hauling and putting into land-
fills which is wasting a 9ood product. He stated crushed gravel is getting
harder and harder to get.
Mr. Svanda stated he would be concerned about the noise generated by the crusher
as residential housing is not too far away.
Mr. Carlson stated he has no expertise in how much noise is generated by the
crusher. The power plants of the crusher are normally enclosed in a van so the
only actual noise is the crushing of the material as it goes into the crusher,
In 1971 Park Construction crushed a million yards of limestone on East River
Road and 37th for Burlington Northern. They crushed two shifts night and day,
and the noise from the crusher did not pose any major complaints from the
neighborhood.
Mr. Deblon stated it would be interesting to visit an existing rock crusher
and take decibel readings at various distances. He would suggest Mr. Carlson
do that before the special use permit request goes to the City Council as noise
might also be a concern expressed by the City Council.
Mr. Car7son stated that Carl Bollander & Sons has been crushing rock for the
last three years down on Marshall Ave. & Plymouth. The crusher is located
within 200 ft. of a redevelopment area with new homes. Bollander did get some
co�plaints, and he put up a noise barrier to deflect the noise, Mr. Carlson
stated that if noise is a problem, there are remedies. He stated if they violate
the noise code, then they would have to do whatever is necessary to be in com-
pliance with the noise code.
Ms. van Dan asked about the dust.
Mr. Carlson stated there would be some dust, but the amount of dust varies
with the different types of material. He stated he did not feel dust would be
a problem.
Mr. Carlson stated they keep a neat and tidy operation, and they want to
cooperate with the City in every way possible, including any noise or dust
complaints. He felt this was an avenue that the construction industry is
doing that, quite frankly, is going to save taxpayers' dollars.
Mr. Kondrick stated his concern was also about the noise as crushing rock is
a noisy operation.
Mr.Deblon stated that, as Mr. Carlson had stated earlier, this is a form of
recycling.

Mr. Kondrick stated that on page 3 of the minutes, the Parks & Recreation
Corunission made a motion recommending to City Council that Jay Park be added
to the approved general ice skating areas for the 1983-84 season. He stated
this came as a result of a petftion from the neighborhood. He stated it was
nice to see so many people interested in their park, and the Commission felt
there was enough children in this area to justify an ice skating rink. He
stated he would like the Planning Commission to concur with this motion.

MOTION BY MR. KONDRZCK, SECONDED BY MS. VAN DAN, TO RECEIVE THE OCT. 26, I982�
EN£RGY COMMISSION MINUTES.
Mr. Deblon stated the City Council, at their Nov. 8th meeting, approved the two-
way stop sign request at 45th & 2� St. At their Oct. 26th meeting, the Energy
Commission had recommended the City remove the obstructed view through trimming
and that the City of Columbia Heights replace its stop sign with a yield sign
to be consistent with traffic control in that area,
Mr. Deblon explained that the obstruction was caused by a large mugo pine that
could not be trimmed back, and still looked good. The tree is actually more
shrub-like than a tree.
Mr. Oquist stated he thought it was part of the ordinance that the boulevard
areas within 30 ft, of the street have to be free of trees or vegetation that
would cause obstructed visibility. He thought the City should really enforce
that ordinance. He stated these two stop signs are not going to solve the
problem. That tree should be cut down because it was illegally planted, and
is a traffic hazard. The City has a tendency to ignore an ordinance that was
put there to protect the citizens of Fridley. Why have an ordinance if they
aren't going to enforce it? If a tree is causing a traffic hazard, the City
should enforce the ordinance and cut down the tree.
