XEARING OPEN AT 7:39 P.M,
Mr. Boardman stated the Commission members had received in the agenda all
the background information on this special use permit request. He stated
Apache Camping Center is located on the corner of East River Road and
77th Ave. N.E.
Mr. Boardman stated Apache Camping Center is requesting an addition to the
special use permit to allow for the display of six units. In the agenda,
there is a considerable amount of correspondence between Apache Camping Center
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, JUNE 22 1983 PAGE 3
Mr. James Pawelski stated he is part avner of Apache Camping Center. He
stated he had to admit that they have not done the landscaping as required
by the special use permit. Regardin9 Iten (e) that there be a maximum of
t two units displayed in front of the showroom, the units that are now on
display were not in existence at the time they requested the special use
permit in 1977. The Park Model is sanething new in the industry and has been
out for only 3-4 years. It is a unit that is not to be pulled. It is
primarily set on a lot, either an owned or rented lot. and it is a cabin-
type unit. The reason for requesting the amendment to the special use permit
is because these Park Models were not in existence in 1977 and because they
do not have enough room for the units in the other part of the lot. Ne stated
the display models are left up, and the buyer chooses the interior decorating,
and the manufacturer builds to the buyer's sQecifications, Then in the fall,
the units that are on display are sold at a reduced price. They pick up their
new units in November. and in January when the camping show starts, they display
the new units up front.
Ms. Gabel stated that in 1977. certain stipulations were put on the special
use permit which were expected to be done. She did not understand why these
things were not done.
Mr. Pawelski agreed they should have gone to the Planning Comnission and City
Council earlier to ask for an amendment to the special use permit because of
the new units, but they just did not do it, The other main item was the
landscaping, and it was true they were in non-compliance with that stipulation.
They started putting units out in front,and he honestly did not feel he should
landscape and then cover the landscaping with units. If they have to put in
the landscaping with the permission to put in more units, he supposed they
would have to landscape around the units. But, he stated�the units vary in
size every year, .
Mr. Boardman stated the majority of landscaping was not in. Most of the
landscaping that needs to be dane is the street riaht-of-way along 77th.
The whole purpose of the landscaping was for screening of the back area where
the units are stored. There is no berming and no screening on the fence. The
whole thing in Item (a) was "that the developrrent of the property be generally
mnsistent with the plat plan....corrected to show two concrete s1aGs adjacent
to the showroom". As he remembered it, the plan was for the filling of the
old pool area, leaving two slab areas for display areas. The landscaping
itself does not necessarily mean in front of the units but close to the showroom
itself. This has not been complied with.
Mr. Pawelski stated Staff is talking about landscaping on 77th Way. They
have had people who have driven by and seen the units through the fence and
have come back and made a purchase. As far as unsightly units in the back,
there are two trucks that do not belong to Apache Camping Center. The trucks
belong to the landlord.
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING JUNE 22 1983 PAGE 4
Ms. 5chnabel stated it appears there really are three display areas that
have been created by these slabs, She did remember back in 1977 about the
filling in of the pool area, but, in ail fairness, the drawing shows that
f as an availab7e site.
Mr. Boardman stated it was very clear in the discussions in 1977 that the
pool area would be removed and that there would be only two concrete slabs
for display. Even though there is an area where the poo] used to be, it
does not mean that is a display area.
Ms. Schnabei asked if there was anyone in the audience who wished to
address this subject.
Ms. Mary Martin, 133 Stoneybrook Way N.E., stated she did not feel Apache
Camping Center has complaed with anything other than the fact that they do
not sell snowmobiles, do not have loud music, and do not have lights on late.
Over the years, Apache Camping Center has had canoes in front, small trailers
in front, portable signs in front, and propane gas signs on the cyclone
fence. Every time there is a camping show or any show that pertains to their
business, they have a great big sign that goes up and stays up for several
weeks. �
Ms. Martin stated one of the reasons the neighbors stopped fighting and
agreed to have the business in this location was because of the stipulations
that were put on the special use permit--that there would be only two display
areas in front and that the place would be kept neat. She stated the area
has not been kept neat. Right now on the south side, she believed there were
three large units in front, three large units nosing into the front where
there used to be Russian Olives. On the north side, there is a unit nosing
into the front that has a sign that says "wide load". She did not see why
the property has to be made worse than it already is. She felt Apache
Camping Center should be made to comply with the stipulations they now have.
Apache Camping Center has not comp7ied over the years,and she doubted if they
complied after the first six months. She did not want to see the whole front
area covered with trailers,
Ms. Martin stated she strongly recommended that the Planning Commission deny
this special use permit, and that Apache Camping Center be forced to comply
with the special use permit now in effect or that that special use permit
also be revoked, She stated it was her understanding that the special use
permit issued in 1977 was supposed to come up for review by the City in three
years. To her knowledge, there has never 6een a review, and it is now six
years later. She stated Apache Camping Center is"tacky". She is living
across the street fran something that is tacky, and the neighbors were pro-
mised that this would not happen and that Apache Camping Center would comply
and live with the rules put upon them.
Mr. Pawelski stated he agreed with Ms. Martin, but they are also in business.
The signs that are put up for the shows are for advertising. This is part of
doing business. He admitted they were wrong by not coming to the City when
PLANNIN6 COMMISSION MEETING, JUNE 22, 1983 PAGE 5
they put up the Park Models without approval fran the City for additional
display space. He stated they are struggling to make a living and the bills
have to be paid. Since 1977, a lot of things have changed.
f Ms. Martin stated that what has not changed is the fact that people are
still living there. It is stiTl her home and her neighborhood.
Mr. Kondrick stated he felt that Apache Camping Center has just simply out-
grown its space.
Mr. Pawelski stated, yes, they have outgrown their space, but they cannot
just pick up and move. Moving is very hard for bi�3iness. If this special
use permit is not granted, he will obviously havF to move units off and start
looking for another location, When they originally requested a s�ecial use
permit in 1977, they werg primarily a tent.camper dealer selling 90 tent
campers a year. They now sell approx. 20 tent campers a year because people
are not buying the tent campers. They are now selling the Park Models
which are $16-25,000 each.
Ms. Martin stated she wanted to remind the Planning Commission that six
years ago wha_n the special use permit was granted, the Planning Commission
was ready to refuse it. The reason the Planning Comnission did decide to
approve it was because the neighbors said that because of the promises made
by Apache Camping Center, they would be good neighbors and let Apache Camping
Center come in. The City Council also was ready to refuse the special use
permit even after the Planning Comnission's recommendation, but because the
neighbors Said they would allow it to come in because of the promises made,
the City Council also approved the special use permit. If it had not been
for the neighbors,the special use permit would have been denied. She did
not think the neigh6orhood now should be put down because Mr. Pawelski's
business is too big for this location. She realized Mr. Pawelski had to make
money. She was not against business, but she was certainly for her own
neighborhood and her own living space.
Mr. Svanda stated that if all the stipulations from 1977 were complied with
by Apache Camping Center, how would Ms. Martin feel about the parking of
six trailers2
Ms. Martin stated she would be against it, because the site looks like a
trailer park now. The business is just plain tacky and the neighbors were
promised it wouidn't be. 5ix trailers in the front is only going to make it
look tackier.
Mr. Svanda stated the worst thing in this whole issue seemed to the fact
that Mr, Pawelski showed bad faith by not putting in the landscaping.
Mr. Saba stated maybe there is some kind of compromise that can be reached
regarding the landscaping. Maybe the landscaping should be done, and then
Mr. Pawelski should reapply for this special use permit after the land-
scaping is done.
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING. JUNE 22, 1983
Ms. Gabel stated she did not see that as a satisfactory solution. She
stated she was on the Planning Comnission in 1977, and she had a lot of
reservations about the special use pemit at that time. The only reason
she voted for the special use permit at that time was because of the stipu-
lations and the agreement by Apache Camping Center that the stipulations
would be met. Six years have gone by and those stipulations have not been
met. She had no reason at this point to believe that to approve another
special use permit with more stipulations with some landscaping was going
to change anything. If anything, it might make the situation worse. She
appreciated the fact that Mr. Pawelski's business has outgrown the location;
but she did not feel that was the neighbors' fault, and they should not be
expected to bear the brunt of it.
Mr. Saba agreed, but stated if there was any way Mr. Pawelski could satisfy
the neighbors, which seems to be the biggest problem, and still stay in
business in this location, he would be all for it. However, he would like
to see some changes made before the approval of this special use permit.
Maybe Mr. Pawe7ski should meet with the neighbors and work this out to their
satisfaction.
Mr, Svanda stated he liked Mr. Saba's idea about making Mr. Pawelski put
in the landscaping before the Planning Commission considers this special
use permit any further.
Ms. Schnabel stated she could appreciate the suggestion of the Apache
Camping Center's owners meeting with the neighbors, but they met with the
neighbors a lot in 1977 and still nothing was done. To say Mr. Pawelski has
to meet with the neighbors now would probably only be delaying something
further. It is really the City's role and responsibi7ity to see that a land-
scaping plan is executed. It is not the role of the neighbors.
Mr. Boardman asked Mr. Pawelski if he would be willinq to work with the City
on a landscaping plan. The City would require 100k letter of credit
against the entire landscaping.
Mr. Pawelski stated he really had no choice but to do that. He asked if he
could have at least 30 days to reshuffle his units and take five units off
the slabs.
Ms. Schnabel stated they would give Mr. Pawelski a reasonable length of
time for removal of the units.
Ms. Martin stated that if the idea was that by having the landscaping done,
Apache Camping Center could have more trailers in front, she was totally
against it and would fight it. She did not want more trailers in front. That
was the biggest thing the neighbors didn't want.
Mr. Saba stated what he was thinking about was a landscaping plan that would
prohibit the display of any rtrore than a fixed number of trai7ers.
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, JUNE 22, 1983 PAGE 7
Mr. Kondrick stated he drives by this property every day and knows the
property pretty well. If Apache Camping Center was to adhere to the
original landscaping plan, even "fudging" a bit, there was no way they
could operate and do business the way they do now.
Mr. Svanda stated that is why he would like to see the landscaping plan
developed before they even consider this special use permit any further to
see if it can even work.
Mr. Pawelski stated he wanted to comply in any way possible to maintain his
business.
MOTION BY MR. SAiiA� SECONDED BY MR, GOOASPEED� TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC NERRSNG
ON SP �83-03 BY APACHfi CAMPING CENTER.
UPON A VOICE VOTE� ALL VbTING AYE� CHAZRWOMAN SCHNABEL DECLARED TNE PUBLIC
HEARING CLOSED AT 8:41 P.M. -
Ms. Gabel stated that having been at the previous Planning Commission meeting
in 1977 when this all happened, she was really concerned because this special
use permit with stipulations was issued. The big concern was the two big
slabs out front, and the neighbors agreed to go along with the special use
permit based on those two big slabs. They were very concerned about there
being a large number of trailers parked out front. She understood that
Mr. Pawelski has outgrown his location, but when the decision was based on
that predication, she had a rea7 difficulty even considering increasing the
display un%ts. She felt the City has some responsibility to live up to the
special use permit that was granted in 1977.
Mr, Saba stated he knows what has happened between 1977 and now with the
economy and the gas crisis. It has to be a tough business to be in. He stated
he would like to see an agreement on a landscaping plan made with the City,
have that plan presented to the neighbors and discussed with them. Before
the granting of any special use permit, he would like to see the stipulations
satisfied and the landscaping completed.
Mr. Kondrick stated that neither Mr. Pawelski or his partner have complied
at all with the special use permit issued in 1977. More than that, the
promises made to the neighbors were broken. He understood Mr, Pawelski's
position, but he was in business today because of the neighbors. He stated
he lives in that area, and this area has always looked tacky, He stated he
wanted to see these stipulations complied with, and he would be against the
approval of this special use permit.
Mr. Goodspeed stated he would agree there was no bargaining over the land-
scaping, That should be done without question, No good faith has been shown
by Apache Camping Center, and he would like to see some good faith shovm
before they even consider this special use permit.

VEHICLES ON LOT 1� BIACK Z� PEARSON'S SECOND ADDITION� THE SAME BEING
7701 EAST RSVER ROAD.
Mr. Boardman stated that by denying the special use permit, there is a
three-letter process that will take place in enforcing compliance. If
he doesn't comply, the City can tag him. The other alternative is that the
City Council has the ability to remove the special use permit which would
eliminate the business in that location because the special use permit is
for outside display of units.
Mr. Saba stated this would not prohibit Mr, Pawelski from complying with
the stipulations made in 1977 and then reapplying for this special use permit.

2. PUBLIC HEARING: REQUEST FOR A SPECIAL USE PERMIT, SP �i83-04, BY
DONALD WEHLAST, D. W. CONSTRUCTION, INC.: Per Section 0�5�(4), to
allow the construction of a new dwelling in CRP-2 zoning on Lots 27, 28,
29 and 30, Block S, Riverview Heights, the same being 8125 Riverview
Terrace N.E.
MOTION BY MS. GABEL, SECONDED BY MR. SABA� TO OPEN TXE PUBLIC HEARING ON
SP N83-04 BY DONALD WEHLAST� D. W. CONSTRUCTION.
UPON R VOICE VOTE� ALL VOTING AYE� CHAIRWOMAN SCNNABEL DECLARED 2HE PUBLSC
HEARING OPEN AT 8:57 P.M.
Mr. Boardman stated this property is on Riverview Terrace in the flood plain
and requires a special use permit. It also requires fill to be placed on
the site. In 1979 there was an application for a special use permit
and a variance. This property has two 50' lots and the request at that time
was for zero lot line, two units, one on each lot with a lot size variance.
The variance was denied so the special use permit was withdrawn.
Mr. Boardman stated this request is by D. W. Construction, Inc., for one
house on both lots so there would be ]00 ft, of iot with one house, it does
meet the requirements as far as setbacks as far as the flood plain in the
sense that the garage and living space meet flood plain regulations. The
one concern ie the drainage. The people proposing the development and the
City Engineers feel the drainage is workable if done correclty; however,
Staff still has sane concern. If this special use permit is approved, the
stipulation he would recomnend was that an engineered drainage plan be submitted
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETIN6 JUNE 22 1983 PAGE 9
with a letter of guarantee that the drainage will be sufficient and, if
not, will be corrected. One of the proposals they are looking at for
drainage is to drain into the slue where water drains rigfit now. Staff's
f recommendation on that would be that they would either want an easement
for drainage or some kind of drainage directly from the lot to the river.
Mr. Boardman stated that other than the drainage, it is a good plan. There
will be a requirement of a small retaining wall because of the 15 ft, fill
requirement, and that has to be worked out with the inspectors.
Ms. Schnabel asked if Mr, Don Wehlast of D. W, Construction had any
comments regarding drainage.
Mr. Wehlast stated he has had engineers and excavators out there, and they
have said the natural drain is to the north. He has been told he would have
to have a culvert under the driveway to get the water to drain to the north.
Ms. Schnabel asked if there were any questions from people in the audience.
Mr. Chester Schack, 687 Glencoe, stated he was very,concerned about where
the water is going to go.
Mr. F. C. Smith stated he owns the house just north of this lot, 8141
Riverview Terrace. He stated this is a lovely house and will be an asset
to the neighborhood. He was concerned about the water draining through
his front yard, If they could put a culvert under the street and drain the
water to the river, that would be great.
Mr. Boardman stated this is why a drainage plan has to be worked out and
agreed to by all the parties concerned.

1. DIRECTOR'S REPORT:
a. 1984 Budget Materiat - Capital Improvements
Dr. Boudreau stated that he will be going to the City Council on
Fbnday, June 27, to discuss the i984 budget. He stated they are not
talking dollars and cents at this point. If the Comnission members
had any suggestions or ideas for capital improvement projects, he
would like them to let him knaw by Friday, June 24.
PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING JUNE 20 1983 PAGE 2
b. Comnunity Park Complex Grand Opening
Dr. Boudreau stated that on Oct. 7-8, they are going to have a
grand opening of the Community Park in conjunction with the grand
opening of the new Center City Piaza project. He asked the Cam-
mission members to mark these dates on their calendars.
Dr. Boudreau stated the Lommunity Park is caning along quite welt.
The lights should be here in about a week or two. The building is
almost completed to the point where they need another contractor for
the woodwork.
c. Swrcner Programs
Or. Boudreau stated the summer programs have bequn. They average 30
children per playground program and about 15-18 in Tiny Tots in the
different locations. The programs have been going very we11 for the
first two ►veeks.
Mr. Kirk stated they had a probiem in getting the surtmer program brochures
out this time. They went with an independent hand delivery service,
and it was the worst delivery they have had in six years. Many house-
holds were missed. They stil) got a pretty good nurt�er of people signed
up for the summer programning, even though they do not know how many
people were missed.
d. E.E,I. (Economic Equivalency Indexj for 1982
Mr. Kirk stated the Comnission members had a copy of the 1982 Recreation
Program Report. As the Cortmission members will note on the totals page
for 1977-1982, the number of activities went up a tittle bit fran last
year, They have had approximately the same number of participants as
19B). The revenue is the most since 1977 at E88,219. Their expenses
are down from 1981, The E.E.I., the value of recreation service to the
comnunity, was up a Tfttie bit again. With the expe�ses being down
and the E.E.I, up. the cost benefit ratio is also down again at ,149.
He stated that is the figure they try to pay ciose attention to.
Mr. Kirk stated the report was for the Comnission members' information.
It gives a listing of the activities. the numbers of participants for
each activity, and the E.E.I. for each of those activities.
e. General Ice Skating Area at Jay Park
Dr. Boudreau stated Ms. Ji71 Marlow and Ms. Jerrie Matson were at the
meeting to remind the Cortmission about the sheet of general ice the City
agreed to put at Jay Park. Ne stated he has informed Ms. Marlow and
Ms. Matson that this is on the Parks 8 Recreation Department's work
schedule, and the preparation work for the rink will probably be done in
Aug, or 5ept.
PARKS 6 RECREATION COFMISSION MEETING JUNE 20 1983 PA6E 3
Dr. Boudreau stated the Commission also has to come up with some
criteria for the location of ice areas within the City of Fridley.
The City Council has requested that information� and the Commission
should address it� probably at the next meeting.
Mr. Kondrick stated the discussion of criteria for the 7ocation of ice
areas in tfie City shoutd be put on the July agenda.
2. NEW BUSINESS:
a. Request fran City Band and Request from Northeast Chamber.
Dr, Boudreau stated the Camiission members had a copy of a letter fran
Ross Larson of the Fridley City Band and a copy of a letter from
Betty Scott of the Northeast Cha�er Ensemble. The City Sand is
requesting funds from the City in the amount of E500, and the Northeast
Chamber is requesting funds from the City in the amount of �700 to be
used to purchase music for the orchestra's library.
Ms. Schreiner stated it was her understanding that when the City Council
made the decision to cut funding for other non-profit organizations,
this is what started the whole thing. She asked if the City Council had
changed its mind regarding funding,
Dr. Boudreau stated tfiat, to his knowledge, the City Council hAS not
changed its mind.
Ms. Schreiner stated it seemed to her inconsistent to give funding to
these two particular groups if the non-profit organizations will not be
receiving funding.
Ms. Seeger stated she objected to the motion. She felt both the City
Band and the Northeast Chamber contribute a very fine part to the City's
recreation. It is sanething she wanted to see continue in the City of
Fridley. She does not play baseball or participate in sane of the other
activities, but she does enjoy music as a recreation, and she felt this
was a contribution the City Band and the Chamber give as a recreation to
this comnunity.
Ms. Seeger stated she did not fee] these were organizations only bene-
fitting themselves. They are benefitting her and the community. She
stated written music is very expensive. She also felt a lot of the members
of these groups encourage young people to realize they can take their
music a�d use it after they become adults. Sfie felt tfie groups contribute
culturally and provide a nice touch to something she can watch and listen to.
PARKS & RECREATION COF44ISSION MEETING. JUNE 20, 1983 PA6E 4
Mr. Allen stated he had very mixed emotions about this. He stated he
could appreciate what Ms, Seeger was saying, but the question wasn't
so much how much the City Band and Northeast contribute to the comnunity,
but the fact that other organizations also contribute to the canmunity
and are not receiving any funding either. That was the main thrust of
the argument befare and why the Correnission made the recomnendation they
did last year.
Ms. Seeger stated she thought it was a shame to say that the recreation
of the comnunity is a non-needed part, She thought it was a very
important part of a healthy community. She did not feel she had to
apotogize for this type of thing in her comnunity. It is worth it and
it keeps the camnunity healthy. Minneapolis has shown the comnunities
leadership in many of these areas without ever having to apologize about
it. even in depression times. Recreation is something that is needed;
it fs like air, and a comnunity doesn't get better by throwing out the
good things.
Mr. Allen stated he did not feel that was the issue at all. He agreed
that recreation is very important to a cortmunity, but he felt the point
was that there are other things offered through recreation and in almost
every case people have to pay for those services. Here are two organi-
zations that are reatly being paid to do what they are doing.
Ms. Seeger stated the City provides help for other recreational programs
such as fields for the softba)1 programs and hockey ice for the hockey
programs. These are at great expense to the City.
Ms. Schreiner stated the City has offered to assist the City Band and
the Northeast Chamber at City expense with such things as moving chairs
and helping them set up and take down for concerts. She thought it was
the Cortmission's feeling before that if anyone wants to participate in a
program, either as a tiny tot or an aduTt, whether educationai or
recreational, you have to pay to participate in that program. These
people are not paying anything. If they contributed and divided their
contributions on a quarterly basis, it would be much )ess than people
have to pay to participate in other programs. Also, a lot of these
people are not living or working in fridley--about 60� of them 7ive
elsewhere. It seemed that if each member would pay $30/yr „ for example.
it should cover their expenses.
Mr. Kondrick stated he also could understand what Ms. Seeger was saying,
Good music is essential in a good community; but when they start talking
about volunteerism and sharing and contributing, he fett it a little
annoying that these groups were asking for funding. Thirty dollars a
year was pretty cheap, and he did nat knaw what else you could be in for
that cheap a rate. He stated music is fun,but there are sane priorities.
If a person is not eating or doesn't have a place to live, then possibly
music should take second place.

Mr. Kondrick stated he felt the Comnission's original decision was
right. Ne still believed the City of Fridley will have good music.
Mdybe when the economic situations change� if they do. the Cortmission
might want to reconsider this, but for now he saw no reason to change
their decision,

b. Discussion - Meadowlands Park
Dr. Boudreau stated there was a neighbor to the park who had planned to
be at this meeting to discuss fiow Lhe fAeadowlands Park could be improved.
It is kind of an L-shaped park that is always flooded with water. He
stated the suggestion was made to dig out and put in a large pond that
would hold water up to a certain point. but this would be quite expensive.
He stated fie would see if this person cou7d attend the next Comnission
meeting to discuss this problem,
OLD BUSINESS:
a. Policy Manual Discussion
Dr, Boudreau stated the Comnission members had the final typed copy of
the "6000 - Program" prepared by Mr. Allen that was reviewed at the last
meeting,
OTHER BUSINESS:
a. Metropolitan Airports Comnission Meeting
Ms. Seeger stated a Fridley resident, Lee Ann Sporre, asked her to
announce to the Comnission that the Metropolitan Airports Commission
was officially meeting on June 28. 1983, at 7:30 p.m, in the Spring
Lake Park High School. She stated the meeting has to do with the Janes
Field site. She stated that as concerned citizens, they should know
as much as possible about this as they will have to deal with it as far
as the noise near Fridley's park areas. The basic concern Ms. Sporre
wanted the Comnission ta be aware of was the quietude of the City's
parks. as the parks would be in direct line of that airport.
b. Letter Suspending Player from the Fridley Softball League
Mr. Kirk stated he had written a letter to an individual player sus-
pending him for one year fran the Fridley Softball League because of a
bat tossing incident in a softball game.on May 26 which injured an empire.
Mr. Kondrick stated he concurred with the action taken by Mr, Kirk and
applauded him for taking this stand.

l
EN_ERGY COMMISSION MEETING, JUNE 28, 1983 PAGE 2
Mr, Saba stated the Dept. of Energy Planning 8 Deve7opment is sponsoring
the pranotion and is offering promotion grants in the amount of $258.
He stated Fridley will be using the grant money to print promotion
materials, and they need volunteers to distribute those materials to
homes.
Mr. Saba stated that if Mike Hosch's Boy Scout Troop would be willing
to votunteer for this project. the troop would be tisted on the materials
as being an endorsee of the promotion,
Mr, Deblon stated he has received a carenitment from the Fridley Sun for
free advertisement, He stated that if they can solicit sane additional
monies from local businesses or organizations, the Laimission might be
able to strive for a little larger project.
Mr, 5aba stated the Comnission is looking at an early fall (Sept,) time-
frame for distribution of the materials.
Mr, Mike Hosch stated he rrould need a letter explaining the project and
how long the project would last as he needs to get it approved by his

woodburning, He stated they should try to obtain this slide/tape for
showing on cable TV in the fall.
2. ENERGY ACCOUNTING UPDA7E:
Mr. Deblon stated he has not been able to expand the scope of the energy
accounting program. Electric bills are still being collected on a month by
month basis for the Civic Center.
Mr. Saba stated he felt the City was really missing the boat by not getting
more involved in energy auditing and publicizing the results of what the
City is doing in energy auditing. They have some good programs avai7able and
they have some good data, but they have to get that data updated and publish
the results.
Mr. Saba stated he would discuss this with the Planning Carmission at their
next meeting and find out what can be done to prioritize energy accounting in
the City of Fridley.

manufacturer� BRK Electronics. that might be interested. This was the
same company that did the smoke detector program with the Chamber of
Cortmerce about eight years ago, He stated he is waitinq to hear from
the company's representative.
Mr. Deblon stated the Fridley Fire Dept, has a CO monitor and will offer,
upon request� to test carbon monoxide levels in people's homes. He

MOTION by Mr. Barna, seconded by Mrs. 6ero�, to remove this Item from the Tab1e.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL YOTING AYE, CHAIRPERS6N GABEI DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED
UNANIMOUSLY.
Mr. Peugh, Mr. Dooley and Mr. Pomaville were present for this matter. Mr. Dooley
explained the request is for an I.D. sign by GM which would be 15' X 15' and 47 feet
high, a trucks products sign and two directional signs. k{e said the present (37 foot
high) sign is obsolete and difficult to see from the freeway when approaching from
the North. He also said there are trees about 1/2 block down that hinder the present
sign. Ne further stated the I.D. sign is the primary sign and, if they had to, they
�vould eliminate the trucks sign.
A�peals Commission Meeting - June 28, 1983 Paae 2
Ms. 6abe1 asked a6out the I.D. s1gn. Mr. Dooley said it would say GM Chevrolet
on top, Yiking in the middie and the GM insignia underneath that. Ne said their
present sign is 343 sq. feet and they are asking for 250 sq. ft. but the height of
the sign is their primary interest.
Ms. 6abe1 said she checked with other cities regarding their sign code, i.e.
87oomington permits 160 sq. ft. including wall signage; Roseville is 175 sq. ft. for
thorofares. Mr. Dooley said they vrould forego the Trucksign for the primary sign
and said thetr present sign is 35 ft, high and they want 41 feet. Ms. Gabel noted
that the total square footage of the primary sign is 241 sq. ft. inciuding the 4'x4'
6M togo. Mr. Barna asAed ff a smalter sign coutd be made of the same design and
Mr. Dooley said not of the I.D. sign.
Ms. Gabei asked why the two directional signs are larger than the code. Mr. Plemel
asked where the signed would be p)aced and Ms. Gabet said they would be placed �n the
front where the two driveways are. Mr. Peugh said the signs are for Body Shop and
Service 8 Parts and 7 sq. feet is the smallest they are made. Ms. Gabel feit the
existing 24 square feet of directionai sign was totally covered by trees and of no value
and questioned the placement of the sign. Mr. Barna felt that a 7 square feet sign placed
on the east side rather than the west side of the driveway would be more visable and
suggested having three 7 square ft. signs, eliminating the 24 square ft. sign.
Ms. fiabel fett the primary sign was stitl too targe at 241 sq. ft. and said that
GM has to deal with municfpatities and cities a11 over the country. Mr. Peugh said
the custom-made signs are much more expensive, they have to pay for them. Mr. Dootey
said that GM gives them a program to work with and they will contribute to the cost
nnd provide the maintenance of the sign. Mr. Plemel asked about the 47 ft. height.
Mr. Dooley said they need tRat especially going north on Highway 65. Mr. Peugh said
42 ft. is the next step down. Mr. Ciark suggested putting the I.D, sign where the
Truck sign was going to be. Mr. pooley explained that there are trees � block down
that block visibility and they need the height of Lhe primary s1gn.
MOTION by Mr. Piemel, seconded Dy Mrs. Gerou, to tlose the public hearing. UP�N A
YOICE YOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON GABEL DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED AT
8:03 P.M.
Mr. Plemel said he drives by Yiking thevrolet twice a day and does not think that the
size of the sign wi11 bother him a�d that.he.would be in favor if they could reduce
the height from 47 ft. to 42 ft. for the ID sign, eliminate the Truck, keep the two
directional signs and have everything on tbe buitding painted over, Mrs. Gerou said
she did not have any problem with 47 ft. but felt the I.B. sign was a little large
and that she would not like to see the big directioeal sfgn and place of the directional
sign on the other side of the driveway for better visibility. Mr. Betzold refrained
from comnenting as he came irt aate to the meeting. Ms. Gabel said she understood the
agreement with GN and the 241 sq. ft., that she did not like it but Viking was willing
to forego the Truck sign and agreed that you could not see the one directional sign.
Mr. Dooley said they would be wilting to move that directional sign or etiminate it
and that originally it served its purpose (the parts 5 service sign). Mr. Plemet
asked if the sign over the overhead doors was going to stay (service) and Mr. Peugh
said it would. Mr. 8arna said he would like to see the 24 sq. ft: traded for a 7 sq.
ft. sign. Mr. Peugh said that sign is in good shape and has Deen maintained since
1971. Mr. Dooley said they Nou1d be willing to do three 7 sq. ft. signs.

8:17 P.M.
Mr. Clark said he was not sure they needed a public hearing for this item as it
was sent back from the Council to the Comnission to reconfirm or reconsider the
interpretation of l{ving space or accessory building and that staff checked the
State rules and that it would be possible to interpret the State rules that the
beauty shop must be operated from the living space from the house. Mr. Llark felt
they could not conside� that valid in the City zoning laws as it would disrupt their
home occupation definition and they would have to allow machine shops, body shops,
mechanics,etc. He said the staff feels the first interpretation is the proper inter-
pretation. Ne further stated that staff spoke Mith Mr, Herrick's office (to Mr.
Neumann) who did say that Council could approve the variance for a specific use for
a defined period of time. Ms. 6abe1 stated the only issue here is the definition af
living space. Mr. Betzold said the State ruTes have a fairly narrow definition
and that certain parts of the fiome are not living space; the City looks at whole
home as living space and it is their jo6 to interpret the City Code. Mr. Plemel asked
if this was to change their thinking on the lot line. Ms. Gabel explained that they
are being asked to determine whether or not this is living space and the staff has
interpreted this as living space which is why it requires a variance and they are
asking if the Lommission agrees with tAis interpretation. Mr. Plemel said if it is
an accessory building, it can be 5 feet from the lot line and if it is living area,
it has to be 10 feet from the lot line and that he concurs with staff in that he
considers it living area.
�
Appeals Comnission Meetina - June 28. 1983 Paye 4
Mr. Betzold asked what the result would be if it was not determined as living space.
Mr. Clark said then no variance would be necessary. He said the interpretation of
the coGe is consistent, gareges are accessory buildings, that they have allowed
home occupation in living sQaces, not garages -- home occupations cannot take place
in an accessory buildfng. He further explained that if the area fs going to be a
beauty shop and it is a ltving space, then it needs a variance and to ask 1f
living space was properly defi�ed in the beginning.
MOTION by Mr. Betzoid, seconded by Mr. Barna. to close the public hearing for
the purpose of voting to determine the issue of tiving space on this matter. UPON

MOTION by Mr. Betzold, seconded by Mrs. Gerou, that, upon the Commission's review of
their original determination of living space in this matter, it has been determined
and affirmed that their motion was based on the issue of living space and this is
living space. UPON A VDICE VOTE, ALL YOTING AYE, GHAIRPERSON GABEL DECLARED THE
MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
NOTION by Mr. Betzold, seconded by Mr. Plemel, to open the public hearing to

UPON A VOICE VOTE. ALL VOTIN6 AYE, CHAIRPERSON GABEL DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING
OPEN AT 8:33 P.M.
Mr. Van Hulzen, Mr. Kramer and Mrs. Doy1e were present for this matter. Mr. Van
Hulzen fett it was an interesting approach to designate a vartance for a particular
purpose (beauty shop) and felt it would be a compromise satisfactory to everyone.
Mrs. Doyle said she attended the City Council meeting and that she stiti does not
care for the 5 feet from the lot tine but that she spoke further with Mr. and Mrs.
Yan Hulzen and she ts a little more comfortable with tfie beauty shop but asked that
it be restricted to the Yan Nutzens only and that Mrs. Yan Hulzen promised not to
have the beauty shop chair in Lhe fro�t window. Mr. Clark asked if she objected to
the living space and Mrs. Doyle said she would not want a precedent set and is
willing to compromise. Mr. Llark said the staff has a hard time keeping track when
homes change ownership and they can keep track o� a comptaint basis and they could
grant a variance for a specific use for a specific period of time. Mr. Van Hulzen
said the State Board licenses beauty shops annually and they wi11 have a very re-
stricted beauty shop. Mr. Betzold asked if they would be in violation of the code
if they did business 7 days a week and Mr. Llark said they would not. Ms. Gabel
asked if they could grant the variance exclusivety to the Van Hulzens and have the
Council work out the legat. Mrs. Doyle suggested having the Yan Hulzens come in
annuatly. Mr. Clark said they could have a letter requesting extension for another
year and could not foresee a problem with,the Louncil, acting on an annual basis.
Nr. Kramer spoke in favor of the variance and betieved it Nil} be a very restricted
type of business and he is not concerned about traffic and that he can see the house
out of his front window and thought that the changes will look nice.
Appeals Cortunisston Meetina - June 28, 1963 _ ___ Vaye 5 _
Mr. Betzold questioned the flardship 1n this matter. Mr. Van Hulzen said the main
hardship is that his wife wishes to take care of the family and still work, that she
needs the job and this is the least ezpensive and most economical �ay to accomptish
this. He said other options would cause co�siderable disturbance and expense;
the entryrray wpuiQ then have to be through the back yard into the basement and
through the laundry room and the poot in the back yard would have to be fenced off.
He felt this would also be additionat disturbance to the neighbors and the existing
area is the right size. Ms. Gabet felt the hardship is now defined much better
and stated she had visited the area artd there wvu]d be a safety factor with customers
and the pool and the construction costs are obvious and this appears to be a better
May.

AT 8:50 P.M.
Mr. Plemel said the original objection of the neighbor's dissatisfaction has now
been removed in this matter and he has no problem with the variance. Mrs. Gerou
and Mr. Barna concurred. Mr. Betzold felt the additional information has clarified
the issues.
I�TION by Mr. Betzold, seconded by Mrs. Garou, that the Appeals Comnission has reconsidered
its earlier recommendation to the City Council, and based upon additional information
presented that was not available at the last hearing on this matter, the Appeals Cortmission
recommends to the City Council approval of the variance request to reduce the side yard
setback on the living side of a house from the required 10 feet to 5 feet, to allow a
converted garage to be used for a beauty shop, located on lot 18, Block 4, Brookview
Terrace, the same being 901 Overton Drive N.E., Fridley Minnesota with the stipulation
that this variance be restricted to the use of the Yan Hulzens only, that this is
granted for a period of one year and to be reviewed annually at the same time the State

Mr. Gerrety was present. Mr. Ctark explained that the petitioner is still using the
single-car garage and presented aerial photos of the area. He said there is no real
set pattern of setbacks for the whole block. Mr. Gerrety said he requested 18 feet
but will actually be using 16 feet - he wanted to be on the safe side as he did the
measurements himself. Ms. Gabei asked what the space is to be used for, Mr. Gerrety
said they want to convert the living room into a dining room and have a new bedroom
and living room and they heve discussed the possibility of just adding the bedroom.
Mr. Barna noted it would be an L-shaped house and make it easier to tie the roof in.
Mr. Gerrety he will have a contractor do this and everything will be tied in.

Mr. Gifford, Lawrence Sign Company, was present for this matter. Mr. Clark said
the Staff did come up witfi one stipulation in that tBey would like to work with the
petitioner to have more landscaping done. Mr. Gifford said he was cal7ed on short
notite to attend the hearing as Mr. Ingram could not be present. He learned from
Mr. Ingram that the Bome office has requested this sign and Mr. Gifford said he was
unabte to contact the home office for further information. He said on a corner lot
the code allows for two signs 6ut with a maximum of 80 sq. ft and they would like to
get side street exposure, especially on a street with a lot of traffic. He further
stated that the types of signs Western has now is kind of a pro6lem as the company
is in a transitional period with their signs and they are currently changing all
their siations. He said it is 6asically a price sign with the name on the top panel.

Mr. Betzold asked a6out getting Mr. Ingram to a hearing. Mr. Gifford said he would
like to bring back the Commission's recomnendations and it is a practice to have
side lot signage with a corner lot. Mr. Betzold questioned the hardship. Mr. Gifford
said the hardship is the square footage and tfiey are competing with Amoco.
Mr. Betzold felt everyone could see their sign. Mr. Gifford said the smaller stations
survive on pricing and service and said tAey could have an alternate request for a
larger sign on University Avenue. Ms. Gabel felt they are presently very noticeable.
Mr. Gifford said one of their problems is that the name Western is going out and
pricing coming in -- price larger and name smaller. Ms. Gabel stated if the Commission
gave them a larger sign, Standard would be in requesting one, also. She said she
was not sure if someone thought this through enough because of the transition and
changes with Western and felt there was a good deal of vision with the present sign
and felt the variance should not be granted because of that and the possibility of
another variance request.
Mr. Gifford felt a sign is needed on the side street. Mr. Clark said he discussed
signed with the Champlin station and their pricing signs are integral part of the
overall pylon sign. Ms. Gabel noted they refused the pricing sign for Union 76
recently. Mr. Gifford asked about wall signs and pump canopy signs. Mr. Clark
said if it is a mansard canopy they are a wall sign and a free standing canopy on
the pump isiand is probably a free standing sign. Mr. Clark suggested continuing
the matter to find out what Western's 'theme' is going to be and what the changes
are to be. Ms. Gabel said the signs could be made smaller. Mr. Gifford said there
would more cost involved with smaller signs. Ms. Gabel noted on their current sign
the prices are not included and they could come back with a plan that includes
both signs and it is policy not to grant variances that are extremely excessive
for gas stations. Mr. Plemel said he was inclined to think signage is adequate for
their needs and it is visible from both directions. Mr. Betzold said he would like
the owner present for this matter.

APPROVAL OF JUNE 22 1983 PLANNING COM�ISSION MINUTES:
MOTION BY MR, KONDRICK� SECONDED BY hIl2. OQUIST� TO APPROVE THE JUNE 22� I983�
PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES AS WRITTEN,
UPON A VOICE VOTE� ALL VOTING AYE� CHAIRWOMAN SCHNABEL DECLARED SHE MOTION
CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
1. LOT SPLIT REQUEST: L.S. #83-03 BY LESLIE W. WILKE: Split off the
nortiF—erly 75 fieet o�Tots T an ��Tock�oore Lake Hills (6061
Central Avenue N.E.) to make a new building site, the same being 6063
Central Avenue N.E.
Mr. Boardman stated this request is to split the northerly lot from the
southerly lot. He stated the lot split does meet all the code require-
ments. The 7ot is 75.8 ft. wide and 122,2 ft, long, totalling 9,170 sq. ft.
There is a$500 park fee required in a lot split.
Mr. Boardman stated there was one concern raised by Staff in the last few
days. According to city code, the shortest distance on a lot is considered
the front yard,so presently, the front yard on Lot B faces Hillcrest, even
though the address is 6061 Central. With the lot split, in terminology,
the frontage of the lot changes. The front yard will now face Centra7,
and what used to he the side yard will become the rear yard, The distance
from the house to the lot line in the rear yard is 29 ft. The code calls
for 30 ft, so there is one foot off in the rear yard,
Ms. Schnabe asked about the existing garage as it will need to be moved.
PLAMNING COM�ISSION MEETING JULY 13 1983 PAGE 2
Mr. Wilke stated he intends to raze the existing garage and build an
attached garage.
Mr. Boardman stated that if Mr. Wilke is going to attach the garage to the
house, because this is now the rear yard and because of the setback
requirement, he would need a variance. He stated that per city code, "A
rear yard with a depth of not less than 25 percent of the lot depth is
required, with not less that 25 feet permitted, or more than 40 feet required
for the main building except as follows: Accessory buildings may be built
no less than 3 feet from any rear lot line not adjacent to the street."
Mr. Boardman stated that at this point in time, he did not think it was
necessary to hold up the lot split because of this setback problem. There
is enough land for the lot split, and the only problem is that, by definition,
the side yard becomes the rear yard. There has to be some opinion made on
it at some point in time; but by approving the lot split, the Planning
Co�ission essentially approves the variance.
MOTSON BY MR. KONDRiCK� SECONDED BY MR, OQUIST� TO RECOMMEND TO CITY COUNCIL
APPROVAL OF LOT SPLIT REQUEST� L.S. �83-03, BY LESLIE W. WILKE� SO SPLIT
OFF THE NORTHERLY 75 FEET OF LOTS Z2 AND 22� BLOCK 2� MODRE LAKE HILLS

6063 CENTRAL AVENUE N.E.� ACKNOWLEDGING THE 29 FT, REAR YARD SETBACK.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE� CHAIRWOMAN SCHNABEL DECLARED THE MOTION
CIIRRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
Mr. Boardman stated Staff will discuss this and clarify the interpretation
in the code regarding the setback for an attached garage.
Mr. Boardman stated this lot split request would go to City Council on
July 25.
Mr. Boardman stated he would like to request that the Planning Commission
amend the agenda to add a request for a special use permit by Mr. Schroer.
MOTFQN BY MR, OQUSST� SECONDED BY MR. SVANDA� TO ADD AS ITEM (j2 R REQUEST
FOR A SPECIAL USE PERMIT BY ROBERT SCHROER.
UPON A VOICE VOTE� ALL VOTING AYE� CHAIRWOMAN SCHNABEL DECLARED THE MOTION
CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY,
2. REQUEST FOR A SPECIAL USE PERMIT SP #82-09i BY ROBERT SCHROER: Per Section
05.'10 , 3, , to allow t e erection of a 30 ft, by 45 ft, fire retardent
tent,.for outside'display and sales, located on Cot l, Block 1, East Ranch
Estates, the same being 7620 University Avenue N.E.
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING JULV 13 1983 PAGE 3
Mr. Boardman stated Mr. Schroer had come before the Planning Commission on
Sept. 15, 1982, with a request for an outdoor frame-type structure to be
used as a display area. The Planning Comnission approved the special use
permit; however, a variance was needed for the setback from public right-
of-way to where the actual structure was to be placed. There was no action
by the City Council on either the specia7 use permit or the variance, and the
request was withdrawn by Mr. Schroer,
Mr. Boardman stated Mr. Schroer is now back asking for a modification to
that special use permit to just erect a tent. The Planning Canmission did
approve the special use permit last September allowing the use of an outside
display area, only now the variance process is eliminated because there
will not be a frame-type structure. Even though the Planning Comission did
approve the special use permit last year, Mr. Boardman wanted to bring this
back before them again so they could re-review it and have a chance to discuss
it again.
Mr. Schroer stated the special use permit was tabled by the City Council
because he had discontinued the idea of adding on to the building. He is
now back asking for a special use permit for the tent. He stated the tent
will be about the same size as it was last year. The reason he is requesting
a permit is because of a truckload garage sale the weekend of July 28-30.
He stated h� has also had some interest from non-profit groups who would
like to hold garage sales for fundraisers, and he does not have the space to
accommodate them inside the building. He stated he would like to ask that
the tent remain up until Nov. 7. During that time, the tent will be occupied
by fund-raising groups, except for the weekend of July 28-30 when he will be
using it. After the clubs are through, he will utilize the tent for apples,
squash, pumpkins, etc.
Mr. Svanda stated he remembered that last year there were some questions
about adequate parking.
Mr. Schroer stated that last year they really had no problem with traffic.
He stated he does have some additional parking in the rear of the building,
and on weekends, he has permission from Kennedy Transmission to use their
parking lot.
Ms. Schnabel asked what Mr, Schroer's long range plans were concerning the
tent.
Mr. Schroer stated he would probably put it up and take it down for the next
couple of years.
Mr, Boardman stated that if the Planning Commission does grant this special
use permit, they may want to grant it on a continuing basis with an annual
review by Staff or the Planning Comnission. This would allevfiate Mr. Schroer
having to reapply for a special use permit each year.
PLANNING COMP4ISSION MEETING JULY 13 1983 PAGE 5
Mr. Boardman stated this special use permit request would go to City
Council on July 25.

IIPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRWOMAN SCHNABEL DECLARED THE MOTION
CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
Mr. Saba stated that the Energy Corrmission has only three members, and there
seems to be some difficulty in finding new members.
Mr. Oquist stated that on Oct. 7-8, the City is going to have a grand opening
of the new Center City Plaza and the new Corrununity Park. He suggested that
some kind of display be set up during that weekend to try and get some
interest in city comnissions,
Mr. Boardman stated that was an excellent idea. He thought it would be a
good idea for each commission to set up a display and have it manned by a
commission member.
Ms. Schnabel requested that the Community Deve7opment Cortunission discuss this
at their next meeting and come up with some ideas for commission displays for
the Fridley Days on Oct. 7-8.
Mr. Saba stated that he was also concerned about energy accounting. At the
last Energy Commission meeting, he stated that he felt the City was missing
the boat by not getting more involved in energy auditin9 and publicizing the
results of what the City is doing in energy auditing. The City has some good
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, JULY 13 1983 PAGE 6
programs available and they have some good data, but they have to get that
data updated and publish the results. He had stated he would bring this up
at the Planning Commission meeting to see what could be done to prioritize
energy accounting in the City of Fridley.
Mr. Saba stated he would like to see Staff input energy bills into the
computer. He stated he has been told that Staff does not have enough time
so they are not even getting a quarterly computer print-out to evaluate the
effects of past energy improvements. He would like to ask the Planning
Commission's support that Staff be allocated a little more time to put this
data on the computer.
Mr. Boardman stated they are limited on staff. Mr, Deblon has all the
responsibilities that Kent Hill, Economic Development Assistant, had before
he left the City, as well as the responsibility of code enforcement. However,
they should soon be hiring a new Economic Development Assistant. He stated
he had not been aware that this accounting was not being done. He stated he
would do some checking on this and see if some staff time could be prioritized
for energy accounting--maybe even having a student secretary input the data.
