MOTION BY MR, KONDRICK� SECONDED BY MS. GABEL, TO OPEN TXE PUBLIC HEARING ON ZOA #84-03 BY RALPH ALLEN FOR GODFATHER'S PIZZA, UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, VICE-CHAIRPSRSON OQUIST DECLARED THE PUBLZC HEARZNG OPEN AT 7:35 P.M. Mr. Ro6inson stated this property was located on the southeast corner of 52nd Ave, and Central Ave. The zoning at this time is C-1, and a C-2 zoning is needed for a restaurant. The property is surrounded by C-3 on the north (Skywood Mall, Menards), by C-1 on the east (apartment building and some vacant land), and commercial to the south and across the street in Columbia Heights. Mr. Robinson stated the whole building is used right now by Great American Music. The plan is to split and remodel and have Godfather's Pizza on the north portion (3,200 sq. ft.). That would leave 6,400 sq. ft, remaining of retail space for Great American Music. PLANNING COMMISSION MEE7ING AUGUST 22 1984 PAGE 2 Mr. Robinson stated some extensive remodeling is necessary to bring this property up to today's code. They plan to cut back on the existing blacktop area and replace it with landscaping and irrigation. The new construction consists of remodeling and adding to the parking lot in the rear of the building. The facility will have the required amount of parking stalls at 79. The restaurant, serving liquor, is required to have one staTl for every f three seats. Godfather's Pizza is proposing 108 seats and 36 parking stalls. The retail portion requires one stall for 150 customers making 43 spaces, for an overall total of 79 parking stalls. Mr. Ro6inson stated the main concern Staff has is that there be ample parking. Some concerns were raised by the neighbors regarding parking. Apparently, Great American Music sells tickets in the morning when the parking lot becomes quite crowded. However, tfiis is primarily in the morning and Godfather's Pizza will not open until noon, so parkingshould not be a problem. Mr. Robinson stated two stipulations were an apF�roved landscaping plan and an approved irrigation plan. Mr. Jeremy Mayberg stated he was with Paul Pink Assoc. Architects, who have been commissioned by Godfather's Pizza to develop the plan and work through the rezoning process and, when approved, to go forward with the actual architectural design of the restaurant. He introduced Mr. Sid Roff, a con- struction site engineer for 6odfather's Pizza, who was responsible for most of the midwest construction of Godfather's Pizzas. He stated Mr. Roff would give a brief description of the Godfather Pizza operation. Mr. Roff Stated Godfather's Pizza is a family restaurant. It is a sit-down restaurant and not a fast-food restaurant. They serve beer, pizza, and sandwiches. The mea� and all the ingredients for the pizza and sandwiches are pre-prepped and shipped in. They do not cook per se. They do not have any grills or fryers, only an oven. Mr. Mayberg stated they feel this is not a typical kind of development that is occurring on Central Ave. and is not what they would consider to have a negative impact on the site. Mr. Mayberg stated one thing he would like some c1arification on was regard- ing tfie improvement and maintenance of the site beyond their property line rfrich is city property. Mr. Robinson stated it was city policy that the boulevard was the property owner's responsibility for landscaping and maintenance. Mr. Mayberg asked if they would have to install irrigation and ma�ntain the boulevard area on Central Ave. which is not their property. The boulevard area is approximately 40 ft. to their property line, Mr. Oquist stated the petitioner definitely had a valid concern when there is that much boulevard area. It would seem reasonable for the petitioner to install irrigation on their property and maintain as much area as they can. PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, AUGUST 22, 1984 PAGE 3 Mr. Robinson agreed and stated he would check this in Staff because that was a lot of area to maintain. It was possible the State Highway Dept. would maintain that boulevard area. Mr, Oquist asked if the outside of the structure would be remodeled differently for Godfather's Pizza and for 6reat American Music. � Mr. Roff stated there will not be a great deal of change to the outside of the structure, other than a separate entryway and signage. Mr. Mayberg stated they have been in contact with Great American Music, and it is Great American Music's intention to upgrade the outside of the building, but they are waiting for the outcane of this rezoning request. Mr. Mayberg stated the peak period of the Great American Music store and the restaurant are off hours. The restaurant peaks after 7:00 p.m., and the record business peaks before 7:00 p.m. The �oncern expressed regarding �king by the neighbors was the result of Great American Music selling tickets to concerts, so some mornings there may be hundreds of people lined up waiting to buy tickets. At that point, the parking lot does not satisfy the parking need. However, that surge is gone by 17:00-noon when Godfather's Pizza opens up for business. So, what may be a problem of great concern rmlly doesn't affect the parking impact. Mr. Robinson stated the Engineering Dept, has made the comment that there is the chance that the City might want to widen 52nd Ave. If tfiat is the case, it would require some road easement, but would not affect this pro- prosed plan. Mr. Mayberg stated Go�ifather's Pizza was certainly willing to work with the City on that. He stated there was 12 ft, from the edge of the existing parking lot to the street, so that should not be a problem, Mr. Oquist suggested the petitioner discuss with the City exactly what the City's plans are for the widening of 52nd Ave. MOTZON BY MP,.

In conjunction with your �nsideration of the S�ecial Use Pezmit, SP#84-16 to allaa gasoline servic� and a oonvenience store at 8100 East River Road, Z ask that the following wnc�sns be addressed. 27 1. Traffic congesti� has long been a problan on this stretch of East River Road. 2. Gas stations generally create a high wlune of traffic arxi this will only increase the congestion on this dangesous piece of roadway. 3. Traveling North on East River I3�a3 one enc��nters a bend in the road at Liberty Street. Traffic is nornially imvinq quite £ast at this intersection and it is a sanewhat blend agproach ta the �tersectyon of Fairniont, which is the proPosed site. 4• ��n4 � e�ening xUSh hour traffic, it is almost i�ossible to make a left hand turn onto East River Rpad, Nprthbp�3� g� }� �st intersections of Glenooe, Fairniont and Liberty. 5. i believe an indepth study should be made into the feasibility o� stop lights at the above three intessecti�s to detetmi.ne the ing�act of the potential additional traffic flaa. 6.

RPSpectfully, P�� .�-- Paul Beecroft CITY OF FRIDLEY HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEET I��G AUGUST 9, 1984 CALL TO ORDER: Chairperson Commers called the August 9, 1984, Housing & Redevelopment Authority meeting to order at 7:03 p.m, ROLL CALL: Mer.ibers Present: Larry Commers, Elmars Prieditis, Carolyn Svendsen, Duane Prairie Members Absent: Walter Rasmussen Others Present: Nasim Qureshi, HRA Director Sid lnman, City Finance Director Dave Newman, City Attorney Jim Casserly, Miller & Schroeder Municipals, Inc.

Mr, Cor,mers stated the only comnent he had related to the question discussed at the last meeting about the dirt problem with Target. Had this been discussed with Target? Mr. Qureshi stated he had discussed this with Target. He stated it has been the City's and the HRA's position that they will level the ground to Target's speci- ficatio�s for the building. If there is any shortage of material, that is the responsibility of Target. He was assuming Target was handling the situation as Target has not cane back to the HRA asking for any assistance.

REGARDING SNYDER'S DRUG STORE: Memo from Mr. Qureshi to HRA dated July 27, 1984; Letter from Snyder's Drug Store to ProjeCt 61 Corp, dated May 2, 1984) Mr. Commers stated that in Mr. Qureshi's memo, he had met with Mr. Bill Walters of Neartland Realty regarding the need of Snyder's possible expansion into the present City liquor store space. He asked if there had been any change in Snyder's position regarding that expansion. HOUSING 8 REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETING AUGUST 9 1984 PAGE 2 Mr. Qureshi stated he had talked to Mr, Walters again that day, and Mr. Walters assured him they are planning to expand into the present City liquor store space. Mr. Qureshi stated he has told Mr. Walters that the Lity needs a firm cortmitment by August 23, i984 and Hr. IJalters said they are working on that deadline. If th� City gets a firm canmitment by Aug. 23, it is their hope to move into the hardware building sometime in October, If the City does not get a firm commitment by the Aug. 23 dead7ine, it becomes impractical for them to try to move into the hardware store building and be geared up for tf�e Christmas season. 2. HEARTLAPJD LETTER REGARDING PNILLIPS PETROLEUM COMPANY - PURCHASE OF r c cTnTinr.i. Mr. Qureshi stated the purchase price of the gas station previously was $120,000. Phillips has had a new appraisal done on the property, and they are now recommending a purchase price of $90,000. Mr. Qureshi stated that at an earlier meetirtg, he had mentioned that the City has been working with the No11y Shopping Center to improve the facadP and landscaping. Heartland has applied for a low interest NUD loan of �100,000 at 5° if they match it with the market rate. So, that would be $200,000 to be used for improving the Center. HUD has put on some more restrictions, and they have been working hard to c7ear the loan, Mr. Qureshi stated that assuming they can package everything and Heartland does get the loan, it is the CTty's hope to basica7ly do all the new facade, lighted signs along the front, landscaping, and a remodeled approach into the Center. The City felt it would not be a good idea to have the gas station right in front. If the structure could be removed, it would open up more exposure to Holly Center. Mr. Qureshi stated Heartland Realty has negotiated the price with Phillips Petroleum, and they are wil7ing to consider contributing one-half of the funds requfred to purchase the gas station property. Mr. Qureshi stated it was his feeling that if they can get a firm commitment that Heartland is going to put one quarter million dollars into the center, maybe a commitment of $45,000 by the HRA io just improve the corner mioht be reasonable. Mr. Qureshi stated that at this time, if the HRA felt comfortable with this, he would like some indication from the HRA that City Staff should proceed to work out a preliminary agreement with Heartland Realty. Mr. Pra�rie stated his only concern was if Heartland would ask for further ass�stance fran the HRA. Mr, Comners stated his only concern would be that the City retain some kind of easement rights over that parcel in case of a major improvement to the intersection. HOUSIN6 & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETING, pUGUST 9. 1984 PAGE 3 Mr. Qureshi stated they are acquiring quite a bit of additional property. They are proposing three lanes and redoing the sidewalk, so they are making some provisions for sufficient public right-of-way. Mr. Cor�ners stated the City has wanted to take that gas station out of there and would have had to do it at some time anyway. If Heartland is going to help and, in addition, there is a big improvement to the Center, it seemed to him that $45,000 was a minor contribution to make, It was to the City's benefit anyway. Mr. Prieditis stated it would improve the site visually. He was also in agreement with Mr. Commers' concern about whether City Staff was looking at trying to predict any future improvements to the intersection, and was there a plan for that purpose? Mr. Qureshi stated they have already done some, but they could certainly retain some additional property to ensure tfiere are no problems later on. MOTSOV BY MR.

RECEIVE It�FORMA7I0NAL BROCHURE FOR PROMOTIIdG CENTER CITY DEVELOPMEN7: Mr. Qureshi stated this was a brochure Staff had put together over the last couple of months. He stated they are trying to project an image that Frid7ey is a viable, 9rowing, and developing community, and that they are definitely promoting development. He stated their hope is to use this introduction in any material they send to potential developers and hope it projects a good image of the City of Fridley. Mr. Qureshi stated Staff has also worked out a rough outline of a� insert which was an invitation for developer interest. They hope this will promote interest among developers. Mr, Qureshi stated he was open to suggestions or comments from the members of the HRA. Mr. Commers asked what the City's position was regarding the availability of IDB's for use on the southwest quadrant. Mr. Qureshi stated this year they still have about $8 million available. As of Dec. 31, 1984, everything is off, and then it will depend on what the new state legislation will be for next year. They feel that if the comnunity is fairly active, they will have a better chance at more of a share of the funds than other communities. HOUSIN� & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETING. AUGUST 9. 1984 PAGE 4 Mr. Canmers stated that if the City wants to attract a major development irRo the southwest quadrant, they are going to need to have some funds available. He would hope there was some coordination between the HRA and the City Council so the City Council would not approve those bonds for a )ot of projects and then funds would not be available for a developer that might come in. The City should make sure it is in a position to secure as much as they can for next year, Mr, Qureshi stated they will be aggressive in pursuing the maximum alloca- tion they can. He was sure that if the HRA had a viable project, the City Council would give that a preference. Mr. Prieditis stated that, regarding the brochure, he was certainly in agreement that in today's world with so many other things going on, there was a need for the City to have a good quality brochure, He stated he thought the brochure was very nftely done. It was the concensus of the NRA members that they were satisfied with the 6rochure and were in agreement with materiai being sent to try to excite some developer interest. Mr. Comners stated that it was his understanding that Tast year the HRA had made a commitment to present some kind of annual report to the citizens of Fridley. Had anything been done in that regard for this year? Mr. Qureshi stated an annual report was prepared last year in October just before the Plaza grand opening, Mr. Comners stated he did not think the report would have to be as elaborate as tfie one done iast year, but he did think the HRA had made a commitment that perhaps each Oct., they should publish a little report so information could be made available to the public. It would prevent misinformation from being discussed. Mr. Prairie stated he agreed. Ms. Svendsen stated she definitely felt they should publish ar� annual report. It was in the HR,4's best interest to get accurate information out to the comnunity, and this was probably the best way to do it, She stated she had received quite a few favorable comments about the report last year, It was the concensus of the members of the HRA to ask 5taff to put together an annual report for 1984, to be brought back to the HRA at their next meeting. 4.

RECEIVE INFORMATIO�d REGARDING HRA BONDING fOR CENTER CITY: Mr, Cor�imers stated the HRA had received a report from Jim 0'Meara at 0'Connor & Hannan regarding what the HRA might do to restructure their projects in Center City in that it was required that the funds they had available had to be used to pay back the bond interest. There were no other alternatives to make those funds available for other types of expenses. Mr. Commers asked Mr. Inman to first define the problem, Mr, Inman stated at the time the original $2,2 million bond was issued, due to the conservative approach of both the City and the HRA, resolutions were authorized that guaranteed that every increment generated in the Center City area in the future would go into that debt service fund. The net effect was that the only thing the HRA could use that money for was for the payment of the debt service and the reissuing of bonds. It also eliminates the HRA's a6ility to take money out of the Center City and give it to other areas, since Center City is generating their major increment, and it also eliminates the HRA's ability to turn back any excess increment to any uf the taxing jurisdictions. Mr, Inman stated the other question tf�e HRA had asked was regarding the proper timing with regard to Targei. He stated that what Mr. Casserly was going to explain to the NRA was of particular interest because it changed the concept of tying Target increment to another project. Mr. Inman stated that in Mr. Richard Ehlers' letter of May 3�, 1984, Mr. Ehlers stated that in order to make the refunding process work, they have to tie up the entire Target increment which does not allow it to be used for other bonding. That would basically set them at ground zero in terms of future bonding. Mr. Inroan stated he would not recommend this approach. Mr. Inman staied he then talked to Jim Casserly who is now with Miller & 5chroeder. Mr. Inman stated this will involve action by the HRA and the City Council so before they spend any time working out the numbers, he had asked Mr, Casserly to come to the HRA meeting to discuss the benefits of a tax increment revenue bond refunding. He stated that if the HRA approves of this conceptual idea, they will then start working on firm numbers. Mr, �im Casserly handed out capies of a memo he had written to the City Manager and Finance Director of the City of Fridley dated Aug. 6, 1984. He stated that last year the HRA redesigned their project areas, so they now have one project area for the City and that is where they are directing their development activity. Inside that project area, the HRA had created three HOUSING 8 REDEVELOPMENT AUTNORITY MEE7ING AU6US7 9 1984 PA6E 6 tax increment districts, and then last year they created a new tax increment district. The real reason for doing that was to integrate eventually all their revenues into all of their planning on a city-wide scope, and then look at what they need for their redevelopment program, He stated the statutes allow them to do that, but their bond indenture on bonds that were issued for the Center City area all prohibit them from using any increments for anything else other than payment of debt service on bonds only inside Center City. The result of that can be extremely negative, because even if they had excess increment, they couldn't take the excess increment even if thry had a Froject inside Center City unless they went throuqh the ruse of issuing a bond and then paying it off next year, So, the indenture itself has prohibited them from doing what the statutes allow them to do. And, the reason for havin9 gone through the restructuring was to allow for this abiiity to move funds in the plan. Mr. Casserly stated the refunding would be the next step in that exercise. When they refund the issues, what they are actually doing is putting into escrorr funds and securing witfi the U.S. Government Obligations the monies needed to pay the bonds when due that are outstanding. This is called a defeasance. The bonds are not called, because they can't call them until 1990-91. but they can defease them, They get the money for a defeasement by issuing refunding bonds. And, if they reissue refunding Donds, it doesn't cost them anything more but they then use their increment and income available to pay the new bonds. The proceeds from the new bond issue are iocked by federal government securities--locked in an escrow fund and the new trustee has no alternative. The trustee is directed to pay the other 6onds as they come due. Even though these bonds are defeased, it has the unusual effect of making them a Triple-A rated bond. Mr. Casserly stated this was not an uncommon device in the general obligation bond area at all. What nakes this device a little bit unique is that wh=t he is suggesting is they use a tax increment revenue bond and not a tax increment general obligation bond. He stated Fridley is in a wonderful position to do this. Not many cities are. Minneapolis is doing it, and Shakopee is doing it. Mr. Commers stated that in the proposa) Mr. Casserly was putting forth, in onler to free up some of the funds they have in the Genter City project, Mr. Casserly is suggesting they purchase some repayment bonds ��ich are secured by government securities, and that is put in a fund that guarantees the payment of those bonds so the indenture requirements they had are eliminated. They can then freely transfer Center City project funds to other areas. He asked what the cost was of acquiring or purchasing these new repurchase bonds. Mr. Casserly stated by the time they got done, it would be between 2'-�-3'z:: of the bond issue. HOUSING & REDEVELOPMEN7 AUTHORITY MEETING, AU6UST 9 1984 PAGE 7 Mr. Casserly stated the memo he had written showed them some of the options they start having available to them. It was a lot of reasons why Minneapolis is looking at this and why other cities are looking at doing this. It really allowed for a lot of flexibility. Mr. Qureshi stated that if the HRA is comfortable with this concept, they will run some numbers and bring them back to the HRA at their next meeting. At that time, if the HRA wants to go with it, they can give their formal approval, It was the concensus of the HRA members that Staff coi�tinue to explore the tax increment revenue bond refunding.

Burch stated that, in time, Yhe city expects some oi the churches in Fridley will want to open day schools as an addition to their program. Therefore, he was asking the commission members for their input in adapting present zoning standards for office buildings (which presently are applied to churches) to small school� in churches. Dr. Vos stated Yhat New Br3ghton has a regulation Lhat there must be one parking stall for every three seats in the sanctuary to help eliminate any on-street parking problems. Nr.

A-Frame Mr, Kirk stated that, as the Cortmission knew, there had been some problems with the A-frame building located up by Grace Hfgh School. There had been some water problems and part of the support beam had given way. About the time all these things happened, the Fridley High School inquired about renting some space. By state law, the School Dist. has xo provide counseiing to private schoo7s, so they have to provide counse7ing for Grace High School since it is in Dist. 14. So, the School District will be leasing the A-frame from the City beginning in Sept. It is a one-year lease subject to renewal. PARKS & RECREATIO�� COMMISSION MEETING AUGUST 20 1984 PAGE 2 b. Problems at the Community Park Mr, Kirk stated Mr. Kondrick has received some phone calls, and the City has received a couple of phone calls and letters from people living near the community park regarding problems they have with the cortmunity park. (Mr. Kondrick arrived at 7:38 p.m.) Mr. Kirk handed out a coQy of the letters and incident report concerning complaints about the park. Basically, these complaints dealt a�ith the public address system, the lights, and some of the general noise in the area. Mr. Kirk stated tf�at since they have gotten these complaints, they have removed the public address system from week night use. They still plan on using the pu6lic address system for special events, tournaments, 49'er Days, etc., but for tf�e general softball program for the time being, they have removed the public address system, That is one step the City has made in an attempt to cut down on some of the noise. Mr. Kirk stated the other complaints deal with the lights. Whenever possible, they have not scheduled the two west fields for late night games; and if they were scheduled, as soon as the game was over, every attempt was made to turn the lights off right away. Mr. Kondrick stated he felt these people have some valid complaints. The City has already taken care oi the noise from the public address system, and he felt the other noise problems could be handled also. He asked if the City had responded to tf�e persons making the complaints. Mr. Kirk stated the City has responded to two of the complaints by either a letter or a phone call, The police responded to the first complaint. Mr, Allen stated he felt it would be appropriate for the City to follow up on the police inquiry, noting what the City has done to try to alleviate these problems. Mr. Kondrick agreed. Mr. Young stated the Jaycees had a tournament at the community park on Aug, 17-19. The tournament ran Friday night until 11:00 p.m., Saturday night until 11:00 p.m., and Sunday night until about 10:30 p.m. On all of those nights, they shut off the public address system at 9:00 p.m, Whenever games were done on the back two fields or other fields, they immediately shut off the lights. In the mornings, they did not turn the publi� address system on until 9:00-9:30 a.m, They did use the public address system late Sunday night when there was a championship game, but that was on field #1, and the speakers point towards University. Mr. Kirk stated they are also trying to do some things with scheduling by not allowing games to start earlier than 9:0� a.m. PARKS & RECREATIQN COMMISSION MEE7ING AUGUST 20 1984 PAGE 3 2. NEII BUSINESS: a, Fall Meeting Dates Mr. Kondrick stated that at the last meeting, Mr, Young had stated he might have a conflict with the Sept.-Dec. Corrmission meetings because of an opportunity to teaci� fali quarter night classes at Anoka Ramsey Community College, Mr. Young had stated he would check into this further to see if there was any possibility the class cou]d be rescheduled for a different evening, Mr. Young stated the person at Anoka Ramsey who can make the final decision about tf�e class being rescheduled was out of town until the foliowing week. He stated after he talked to this person, he wouid let either Mr, Kondrick or Dr. Boudreau knaw if there was a need to discuss alternative meeting dates for the months of Sept,-Dec. 3. OLD BUSINE55: a. Softbatl 7ournament Refund Mr. Kirk stated that at the last meeting, the Cor,unission discussed what would be a fair administrative price to charge a person or group that reserved the fields, put a deposit down, but because of insufficient funds to cash the check, was not allowed to run the tournament. The Commission agreed the �100 clean-up fee plus $150 administrative cost for a total of �250 was a fair price to charge. Mr, Kirk stated a motion was made by the Cortmrssion to direct Staff to col)ect this $Z50 fee frpm f1r, Tony Wajda, who, because of fnsufficient funds, was not al�owed to run a tournament on July 14-15. Mr. Kirk stated �Jr.Boudreau contacted Mr, Wajda, but Mr. Wajda did not think $250 was a fair fee and wanted to carry this further, Dr. Boudreau told Mr. Wajda of the Comnission meeting. Both Mr. Kirk and Dr, Boudreau have tried unsuccessfully to contact Mr. Wajda since then, Dr. Boudreau did ca11 and leave a message to have Mr, Wajda call htm to remind him of the Comnission meeting, Mr. Wajda did not return the call and was not at the meeting, Mr, Kirk stated Staff is now looking for some direction from the Commission. Did the Commission want Staff to continue to pursue this with Mr, Wajda or did the Commission vant Staff to turn over the two checks to the Police Dept, as bad cfiecks and let tfie Police Dept. try to collect? Mr, Kondrick stated that weekend cou7d have been used by someone else. Dollars were 7ost because of the inability to rent the fields to someone else. He stated Mr, Wajda gave the City bad checks and Mr. Kondrick fe]t those checks should be turned over to the Poiice Dept. _ _ _. PARKS & RECREATION COhU1IS5I0N MEETING AUGUSI' 20 1984 PAGE 4 Mr. Young stated that, having just been involved in a tournament that past weekend, he was sure the City put in an equai amount of effort to get those fields and facilities in shape for Mr. Wajda's tournament as they did for the Jaycees' tournament. Seeing the number of park employ- ees doing work at the park, he felt Mr. Wajda was getting by very reasonable at $250. The c�ntract does state there is a$100 fee plus an administrative fee, and he felt $250 was a very fair fee to charge. Mr. Allen stated he felt this was very much a situation of "being had". Since Mr. Wajda did not take the time to ca11 or come to the meeting, he felt they should take the next step, and that was to turn the checks over to the Police Dept. Ne also felt it was a dangerous precedent to set to let the word get out that anyone can get away with this kind of thing with the City. They were talking about too much money, and too much vaivable playing time for people. Mr. Kondrick stated he egreed with Mr. Allen that setting a precedent was a very good point, The City should make every effort to let people know that the City is serious, and that fees are set for a reason. Mr. P�elson stated he also agreed with the Comnissioners. Ne felt Mr. Wajda was getting off easy with a Fee of $250. With the bad weather this summer, a lot of valuable playing time was lost, and those fields could have been used for make-up games, because it was a very good weekend. Mr, Kirk stated that after this season, they will need to have some discussion and some details worked out regard�ng tournament policy. Mr. Young stated the Jaycees just held the largest tournament that has ever been held at the community park. He stated there were many compli- ments about the facility. There were a few minor complaints, but people understood that the facility was only a year old and that in another year the facility would be far better, Mr. Young stated that because of the fact that they did have a 60-team, double elimination tournament, that meant 119 games to be played, He was always under the impression that all six fields were playable for men's softball. He was surprised to find out that only four of the six fields are usable for men's softball. So, because of the Parks & Recrea- tion Dept, not allowing them to start games earlier than 9:00 a.m, and because of the amount of games to be played, they found it necessary to use Comnons Park and Locke Park. In light of this situation, he felt that when the Comnission has their policy discussion, they should put some serious thought into the maximum size tournament they want scheduled at tf�e community park, especially if it is an all men's tournament. Mr. Young stated that one question asked when they were setting up the policy was how much money could an organization make with a weekend tournament. He stated the Jaycees had no direct expenses as far as umpires, buying softba115, trophies, etc. All those expenses were cavered by the M.R,P.A., because the tournament was a Class B Minnesota Recreation and PARKS & RECREA7ION COMMISSION MEETING AUGUST 20 1984 PAGE 5 Parks Association Men's USSSA Tournament. They cleared approximately $3,000 for the weekend. Almost half of that amount came fran a$1/person admission fee charged at the gate. There vias a separate admission each day. If it had not been for charging an admission, their total profit would have been closer to $1,500. He stated he felt an organization with a large tournament could probably make around $1,000-1,500.

Mr. Gronlund esked if the county is going to continue to accept the other 2j3 of solid waste. Hr. McCarron stated that by lar they cannot refuse it. Mr. ltcCarron stated that monies available to the city for any e2igible abatement program could be from the state�s share of tigping fees which iould be 50¢ per household. The city would be automatically eligible if they submit any plan to the county so that the county could vrite it into the master plan.

PUBLIC PURPOSE SERVED QY REQUIREMEPJT: Section 205.18.3D.2 requires a setback of not less than twenty feet between any building and side property Tines. a Public purpose served by this requirement is to provide open space areas around industria7 structures for aesthetic and firefighting purposes. APPEALS COMM:55ION MEETIPIG, AUGUST 2S 1984 PAGE 2 B. STATED HARDSHIP: "Need a side yard setback variance to allow the proposed addition to line up witfi the current building as the production flow in manufac- turing would be seriously impaired with a jog in the production line and the 1ot is too narrow to economically set the addition back 20 feet along the south si�e yard set�ack." C. ADh1INISTRATIVE STAFF REVIEW: This will be an extension to the wall of the existing building. If the Board recommends approval, it should be stipulated that the new wall 6e a four-hour rated fire wall with protected openings, Mr, Burch stated the petitioner plans to add a small addition to the back of the building, and it makes sense to line up the building as proposed. Mr, Jim Faulkner stated he was the architect who prepared the plans for Gerald Johnson. Mr. Johnson was reques*.ing to continue on the new addition in line with the existing buildin9 line, As stated in the Administrative Staff Report, they need the side yard setback variance to allow the proposed addition to line up with the current building in order to get the manufacturing flow of the facility to work. Ms. Gabel asked Mr. Faulkner to explain what he meant in terms of "manufac- turing flow". Mr. Faulkner stated Johnson Wood Products was a manufacturer of custom wood- working for commercial, residential, and institutional buildings. Part of their building plan was to add new machinery,new equipment, and redesign their manufacturing process from the point wnere material comes in the build- ing, goes through the building, and back out through the loading docks. To make that manufacturing flow work, the products have to come in and go all the way down a manufacturing line and then come back around. With a jog in the building, it would cause a problem trying to bring the materials around and then bring them back through. It was kind of standard in any manufacturing process to want product lines to run straight through and make a loop, and that was the reason for Mr. Johnson's request. Ms. 6abe1 asked about the exterior of the proposed addition, Mr. Faulkner stated the addition would be brick--the same material as the rest of the building. Mr. Plemel asked how wide the lot was next to the property on the south. He was wondering if by granting this variance they wou'd be creating a hardship for someone eventually building on the adjacent lot. Ms, Gabel stated that, after looking at the aerial photo, it was just specu- lation as to what wouid go on that lot. She stated there was a lot of room APPEALS COMMISSION MEETING, AU6UST 28 1984 PAGE 3 on that lot. There are some existing problems, and by granting this variance, she did not think they would make the problems any worse. Mr. Barna asked if the south wall in the existing building was a 4-hour rated wall. Mr, Faulkner stated it was a 12-inch masonry wall, and under Uniform Building Code, it does have a 4-hour classification up to about T5 ft. He �ated this wall does have a door in it now to the boiler room. The tentative plan was to take out that boiler room completely and block up the door, He stated he thought the only hindrance on the 4-hour rating o7 the wall was the fact that the door into the boiler room was probably just a 2-hour rated door. If the door does not come out, it wi]1 be replaced with a 4-hour rated door. MOTION BY MR. BARNR� SECONDED 8Y MS, GEROU� TO CIASE TNE PUBLIC XEARING. UPO1J A V6ICE VOTE� ALL VOTING AYE, CHASRPERSOIJ GABEL DECLARED THE PUBLIC HERRZNG CLOSED AT 7:55 P.M. Mr. Barna stated he could see where setting back the addition 20 ft, would disrupt the manufacturing flow. With no new construction to the south at the present time and the fact that this was just extending an existing wall, as long as all the fire ratin9s are met and there was cont�nuity with the visual wall, he would have no objections to granting this variance. Mr. Betzold stated that since the existing building was already in its position and was probably closer to the lot line than it shou]d be, that can't be changed. He stated he thought this demonstrated some of the problems that can be created by allowing this type of construction to go too close to the lot line, but as long as the situation was not being worsened and as long as there was a demonstratable hardship for the manufacturing li�e, the variance should probably be approved. Ms. Gerou and P1r. Plemel agreed with Mr. Barna and Pir. Betzold. Ms. Gabei stated she also agreed, She thought part of the hardship o�as the existing building being located where it was, and that added to the pro6lem of the flow of the product line. She would also be in favor of granting the variance, but she would definitely like to see the Comnission add on a stipu- lation that the door in the existing south wall be either upgraded to a 4-hour rated door or be removed.

Ms. Gabel stated this item would go to City Council on Sept. 24. She stated the reason this would not go to the Gity Council meeting pn Sept. 10 was because the normal procedure was for the Appeals Commission's minutes to go through the Planning Commission before going to City Council. Mr. Faulkner stated Mr. Johnson would really like to start construction within the next couple of weeks. It would be very advantageous if this item could go to the City Council on Sept. 10. Ms, 6abe1 stated she believed the Appeals Commission had no problems with this going directly to City Council on Sept. 10 and not going through the Planning Comnission since the Planning Gomnission only receives the minutes; however, it was not the normal procedure. She suggested Mr, Burch convey to the City Manager that there was a time problem with this item, realizing that fall and winter are not too far away. She stated Mr, faulkner should call Mr. Burch to find out if this item was going to the Sept. 10 or Sept. 24 meeting. 2, REQUEST FOR A VARIANCE PURSUANT TO CHAPTER 214 OF THE FRIDLEY CITY CODE TO STRIAL , or qutst Stgn o., est La e Street, Minneapolis, 55408). MOTION BY MS. GEROU� SECONDED BY MR, BARNR, TO OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING. UPON R VOICE VOTE� ALL VOTING AYE� CHAIRPERSON GABEL DECLARED THE PU➢LIC HEARING OPEN AT 8:02 P.M. Chairperson Gabel read the Administrative Staff Report: ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF REPORT 5341 East River Road N.E. A. PUBLIC PURPOSE SERVED BY REQUIREME�dT: Section 214.06.2A.2 restricts a real estate sign for a multiple develop- ment to 50 square feet in area per development, Public Purpose served by this requirement is to control visual pollution and excessive use of signs in commercial areas, B, STATED HARDSHIP: "The River Road Business Center bounded by 51st Way and 54th Way on East River Road offers a great potential for growth to local and national business people who are able to learn of its location and availability. 4P�EaLS r.nn!�I�SION MEETING. AUGUST 28. 1984 . "Learning of the location and i*_s availability can be accomplished with a sign readable from freeway 694 and East River Road. The sign must be readable from these main thoroughfares and denote its large growth potential. "?he standard allowable signage will fall short of the need, thus we request a variance." C. ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF REVIEW: The City Sign Code permits a temporary real estate sign of 50 square feet when trying to lease a development of three or more potential businesses. The owners of this property feel the largest tenant potential would be from people traveling on Highway 694, and because the setback from this highway is so far, it is necessary to erect a larger sign. They feel a 300 square foot sign would provide the necessary visibility. The staff has no objections to the sign but feel that a time limit should be placed on how long the sign can be displayed. Mr. Burch stated this si9n would be the same size as a billboard. He stated the request seemed reasonable as this was a large development. and they want to get good exposure to East River Road and I-694. He stated Staff's recommendation was to place a time limit on the sign or until the River Road Business Center is 95� occupied, which has been recommended in the past. The petitioner, Rene' Roberts stated the River Road Eusiness Center has three whoTe blocks they are deveioping, and she was assuming they would be marketing this at larger companies, maybe even sane national companies. So, they have to have a large enough sign so people can really know who they are and where they are located. She stated they did agree that the time limit of about two years or until 95ro leased (whichever comes first} was a good idea. Mr. Barna stated he personaliy could not picture a prospective tenant driving down East River Road, seeing the billboard, and deciding he/she would like to move his/her business here because it was a good location. He did not see where the billboard roould actually help assist in renting or selling any of these sites. It would seem likely that anyone looking for sites would work through commercial or industrial real estate agents. He did not believe any of the businesses already in this area or in any of the other industrial development sites in the City of Fridley actually picked up their tenants through billboard advertising. Ms. Roberts stated that recently in another community ari advertising si9n had fallen down, and one of the realtors they work v�ith had requested the sign be fixed immediately because he stated that was where he got his leads. So, apparently, some people do read signs and do use them. She stated that since this was such a large development, they might be marketing in some of the national magazines, and they might want to use the sign as a way of directing people to the development. APPEALS COPiMIS5I0N MEETING AUGUST 28 1984 PAGE 6 Mr. Barna stated that maybe what they are rea]ly lonking for was a sign for site location identification rather than for potential customers. Ms. Roberts stated she thought it could serve both purposes. Mr. Barna stated he did not see where a sign this large would be necessary for site identification, In the past 5-6 years, Fridley hasn't felt bill- board advertising really gained that much for the community. They have bent over backwards to help people with visible signage, but as far as large signs tfiat are going to stand for a long period of time, people could just as well rent the Naegele sign as far as East River Road traffic. Ms. Gabel stated that Mr. Barna had made a good point. Several years a9o, the City had a sign committee that did a long term study on signs. It a�as found that the community does not care for the proliferation of billboards at all, so the rules and codes are pretty strict in terms of billboards, mostly to discourage billboards. Ms. Gabel stated she had a 1979 MnDOT (Minnesota Dept, of Transportation) report that showed there are a large number of traffic accidents on I-694 in that quarter of a mile area from East River Road back. In a 2-year time frame, there were 306 accidents there. MnDOT did have plans to expand I-694 to a six-lane highway, but there have been some budgetary problems since then. She stated she could not prove that signs cause accidents, but obviously people who are reading si9ns on the freeway are not looking at the road. Since she did know the traffic situation in that area has gotten worse, she was reluctant to add any more billboards to the freeway that she felt was a deterrant to motorists. Mr. Barna asked how many 50 sq. ft, real estate signs would be allowed for a development of this size. Mr, Burch stated they would be allowed one 50 sq. ft, sign for each street frontage. Mr, Barna stated he would rather see them with 2-3 of the smaller 50 sq. ft. development signs saying where the development is along East River Road, and maybe one of the small development signs could still be visible from I-694. A lot could be put on a 50 sq. ft, sign--at least so people would know where the location was, and then maybe they could rent billboard space in other locations along the route to the development. Mr. Betzold stated he was very familiar with this area as he drove it twice a day during rush hour. He stated the problem was that �ust before a person gets to the intersection where it was proposed the sign be erected, the freeway narrows down because of a railroad bridge that was very adequate when the freeway used to be Highway 100, That railroad bridge is no longer adeq�ate for an interstate freeway, but as a result of that narrowing, that is where the bottleneck is created. It then becomes very treacherous, because just when tfie sign would become visible, that is where the exi± to East River Road suddenly appears. He did not think a sign at that location, at least the way it was configured right now, would be very helpful. APPEALS COMMISSIOW MEETING AUGUST 28 1984 PAGE 7 Ms. Gerou stated the_location for the sign was very bad. It was also too large a sign to have up for a 2-year period. Mr. Plemel stated he wondered how many people driving down the interstate would decide all of a sudden to build a carpet store, for example, in a certain place. Ordinarily, when you see this kind of sign, it just says, "for sale" or "for lease" and the telephone num6er. He felt this sign was more `or the real estate firm than for the development company. He was not in favor of a sign that large. Ms. Gabel stated the petitioner had two alternatives, The Appeals Comnission could table this item in order to give Ms. Roberts an opportunity to go back and talk to her clients and relay what the Appeals Commission saw as problems with this sign in this location. This would then be discussed at their next meeting on Sept. 18. Or, the Appeals Commission could act on this variance as requested, and Ms. Roberts could plead her case at the City Council, who could overrule the Appeals Cortmission's decision. Ms. Roberts stated she would like the Appeals Comnission to give her a recommendation as to aihat they could live with, and she would take this recommendation back to her clients. Ms. Gabel stated the Appeals Commission has had an ongoing concern about billboards, particularly as they relate to traffic, and they weuld clearly not want something that is going to have this kind of exposure to the freeway. At this time, without a variance, the petitioner could put up one 50 sq. ft. development sign for each street frontage. The Appea7s Cor�mission members suggested some locations where the develop- ment signs could be placed per city code. Ms. Gabel explained to Ms. Roberts that if she wished to have the Appeals Comnission table this item, this item would be on their agenda on Sept, 18. At that :ime, Ms. Roberts could give her decision. If she has decided she wants Yhis variance, the Appeals Commission will act on it. If she has decided to go with the development signs per code, the variance request can be withdrawn. Or, if Ms. Roberts should decide on something different that would require other variances, then another publishing would be required. Ms. Roberts agreed she would like this item tabled.

Mr. Robinson will check xith Jim Hill, Public Safety Director, on any type of liability the city of Fridley might have and also if he feels that a 425 ppm reading is an appropriate danger level. D. Mr. Robinson will submit the following article to the Fridley Newsletter: "With the home heating season approaching, residents should be aware of the problems which can be created by the build up of carbon monoxide (CO) in the home. This problem most often occurs in energy efPicient (air tight) homes rhich are burning wood in a fireplace or xoodstove. The Fridley Energy Commission is currently investigating the purchase of low cost CO detection devices to aid city residents in detecting the presence of a potentially dangerous situation. If interested in obtaining a CO detection device, call City Planning Department at 571-3457." MOTION The city of Fridley Energy Commission requests concurrence •i'iFi a proposal to sponsor a CO monitoring prograa by initially purchasing ]�0 inexpensive detection type devices. These devices xill be made available by sale or give away Yo interested residents. The costs of this program are not to exceed $25�. M.r. Robinson stated that the commission needed aome kind of coordi- nation if CO Was detected in homes. The following two suggestions pere madei A. The Fridley Fire Department could more sophisticated monitor vhich B. Minnegasco could be called. 2. REVIEWAL OF $OIISING MAINTENANCE CODE be called as they have a could give a PPN, reading. Mr. Robinson stated that he had talked to Steve Youlan, Residential Programs, (29'7-2313). The folloving are the.requirements to be in effect ,Tuly of 1985.

The commission decided to have the requirements put on the books now. Mr. Robinson xill work on updating. The commission will make a motion when exact wording is available. Mr. Robinson stated that While he was checking into this code change, a couple of interesting things came up: A. The Home Energy Disclosure law is no longer in effect. B. Minneapolis and Fridley are the only two municipalities that have an agreement with the Department of Energy and Economic Development to enforce their own energy standards. C. There is $8,000-$10,000 per municipality available to fund a part-time position to inspect properties. Mr. Robinson will try to get more information on these funds. • . �! A. MINNESOTA HOUSING FINANCE AGENCY GRANT MHFA money xill be available September 10.

ING COMMISSION MEETING. SEPTEMBER 12. 1984 PAGE 3 Mr. Robinson stated this property was located on the northeast corner of 63rd Ave. and Nighway 65. The zoning was C-2. It was rezoned to C-2 in 1979, and in conjuction with the special use permit, there was an allowance made for a garden center on the south end of the property. Since that time, the owner has also stored boats on the north side of the property with additional outside storage of canoes and boats. Staff felt there should be a special use permit on this also as it was not covered in the original conditions of the rezoning amd special use permit. Mr, Robinson stated there has been some significant improvements to the property since Mr. Holmer has taken over, but there are some additional things Staff would like to see done with this special use permit: 1. Wooden fence around property in need of maintenance and staining 2. Provide a screened dumpster location with a solid wood fence on all sides. 3. Mulch all planting beds 4. Plant vines on chain link fence �here possible. 5. Stripe parking lot. 6. Provide a timetable pertaining to the provision of finalized site plan including parking lot setback, concrete curbing, and complete landscaping. Mr. Scott Dahlquist stated he was at the meeting representing 5cott Holmer who was called out of town. He stated that as far as any financial arrange- ments or timetable, he was not able to speak for Mr. Holmer. It was the Comnission's concensus to table this item until the next meeting when Mr. Scott Holmer could be present in order to give Staff an opportunity to discuss with him the stipulations recommended by Staff and to give the Planning Commission members an opportunity to discuss Mr. Holmer's plans for the property, MOTIQN BY MR.

UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE� CHAIRWOMAN SCHNABEL DECLARED THE MOTION CRRRIED UNANIMOUSLY. PLAN;4ING COMMISSION MEETING SEPTEMBER 12 1984 PAGE 4 Mr. Robinson stated the property was located on the southwest corner of Fairmont and East River Road. It was a vacant service station and was zoned C-1. At this time, a special use permit was being requested because a special use permit was required for fuel dispensing. Adjacent land use consists of commercial to the north and single family housing on all other sides. Mr. Robinson stated the vacant service station is in rather a grim state of disrepair. The petitioners are going in with tne knowledge that there are a significant number of code requirements. They have agreed to do extensive landscaping along Fairmont and East River Road. M,a�or remodeling is needed to the station itself for a commercial/retail "stop and shop" type of outlet. The plans for the facade are preliminary with new siding and new signage display on top. Mr, Robinson stated Staff would reco�nend the following stipulations: 1.,_Applicant to work with the City on finaTization and approval of landscape/site plan. 2. Test and/or replace all underground tanks. 3. Provide interior concrete curbing. 4. Extend fence along residential area on the south to east property line (to be 4 ft. high in front yard, 6 ft, in other yards) 5. Provide 17 ft, road easement along East River Road for possible future use by the County. 6. Stripe parking lot. 7. Provide a$5,000 performance bond prior to issuance of building permit. Ms. Schnabel asked if the petitioners had any questions regarding the above stipulations. Ms. Patricia Holcomb stated she questioned the 17 ft. road easement since this would run into existing islands on the property. Mr. 3obinson stated it has been the City's policy to acquire easement in conjunction with the County for possible widening of East River Road. This was consistent with reques'ts of oiher businesses along East River Road. Ms. Gabel asked about the hours of operation, � Ms, Bernadette Benson stated they did not know what fwurs the store would be open at this time, This cou7d be discussed with the City Gouncil, She stated they had originally planned to be open from 6 a.m. to 12 p,m., but were approached by some neighbors asking that they stay open 24 hrs, a day. She stated they certainly would like the option of staying open 24 hrs. a day. pLANNING COMMISSION �EETING, SEPTEMBER 12, 1984 PAGE 5 Ms. Schnabel stated that regarding lighting of the building and the property, one of the Planning Commission's concerns was that the lighting not be focused into adjacent property's homes. Ms. Holcomb stated they have been looking at a type of lighting that shines down onto the lawn rather than out into the street or adjacent properties. She stated there is good screening of the homes of the adjoining properties and there are streets on two sides of the property. Ms. Schnabel asked if anyone in the audience would like to coriment about this special use permit request. Mr. Larry Miskowiec, 440 Ely 5t., stated that because this business would increase the amount of traffic going in and out of the station, he was concerned about the children getting off the school bus at the bus stop on fairmont. He questioned whether there would be a need for a stoplight because of this new business, He stated a lot of people try to make it in t6e gas station business, and it was his concern that this business may not go and the property would be vacant again. Nis last question was that if this business was to remain open 24 hrs, a day, would this become a hang-out for kids and video machines? Ms. Holcomb stated she currently runs a store for a major oil company and has been in the business for 18 years. She stated video games are the worst thing they could put into a store like this. As far as it becoming a hang-out for kids, there is no problem as long as they set the rules right away--that this is a store and they are to go in and out. There will be no reason for the kids to hang around, and they will make sure of that, because kids hanging around a store is the worst thing they could have for a business. Ms. Myrna Kostuch, 8027 Fairmont Circle, stated she would also be concerned for the children who get off the bus on Fairmont Circle. She stated she would like to present to the Commission two petitions with signatures of those against this special use permit for the following reasons: 1. High traffic added to East River Road 2. More noise to the neighborhood 3. Currently two stores in the area now--do not need anymore 4. May need traffic lights to control traffic; therefore, more tax dollars to be spent. 5. More chance of robberies and kid's hang-out 6. More litter in our neighborhood 7. Closing of the station at 8255 East River Road is an indication that the support of the area ts not behind this type of operation. MOTION�BY MS. GABEL, SECONDED BY MR. KONDRICK� TO RECEIVE PETITIONS.

UPON A VOICE VOTE� ALL VOTING AYE� CHAIRWOMAN SCHNABEL DECLARED THE MOTZON CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY, PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, SEPTEMBER 12 1984 PAGE 6 Ms. Kostuch stated that because of more people going in and out of this new business, there would be more traffic criss-crossing East River Road rather than going straight. She stated they have no trouble with what is existing. Ms. Holcomb stated the County is already reviewing the possibility of putting lights at Fairmont and East River Road. Mr. Robinson stated the City has talked to the County and has asked the County to comment on the possibility of a traffic light. The County intends to do traffic counts to see if this intersection warrants a light. Mr. John Wright, 563 Ely St., stated he has lived in this area for 26 years. He stated if the petitioners want to put in a gas station and convenience store, it is not going to hurt the other stores in the area, because this store will not have the room to carry as many goods as the other two stores. He stated having a station open 24 hrs, a day with lights will help cut down on crime. He did not think there would be any noise that would affect the neighborhood, He felt this station would be an improvement to the City of Fridley. Mr, Fred Meinke stated he owned Meinke Foods just to the south on East River Road. He was opposed to another store in a neighborhood where there were already two stores. He asked about the underground tanks. Ms. Holcomb stated the Fridley Fire Chief has approved their keeping the tanks in the ground if they test out successfully. She stated two of the three tanks are steel and have been in the ground a long time, so they have chosen to take those out and replace them. They have had soil tests taken to make sure there is no soil contamination in the soil, and those tests have come back o.k. The other existing tank is fiberglass and is about 5 years old. If it tests out correctly, it will be left in the ground. If not, it will be pulled out and replaced also. Mr. Paul Beecroft stated t�e Commissioners had already received a copy of his letter dated Sept. 6, 1984, in their agenda. He stated he was represent- ing BASEnterprises, and was one of the owners of 8154 East River Road, which was the Fridley Food Market. He stated he had nothing to do with the opera- tion of the food store. He stated he would like to read his letter: "In conjunction with your consideration of the special use permit, #84-16, to allow a gasoline service and convenience store at 8100 East River Road, I ask that the following be addressed: 1. Traffic congestion has long been a problem on this stretch of East River Road. 2. Gas stations generally create a high volume of traffic and this will only increase the conqestion on this dangerous piece of roadway. PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, SEPTEMBER 12 1984 PAGE 7 3. 7raveling north on East River Road, one encounters a bend in the road at Liberty St. Traffic is normally moving quite fast at this intersection and it is a somewhat blind approach to the intersection at Fairmont which is tfie proposed site. 4. During the evening rus6 hour traffic, it is almost impossible to make a left hand turn onto East River Road northbound from the west intersections of Glencoe, Fairmont, and Liberty. 5. I 6elieve an indepth study should be made into the feasibility of stop lights at the above three intersections to determine the impact of the potential additional traffic flow. 6. The appropriate safety steps to the elimination of road hazards should be made rather than the compounding of the problem. Ms. Schnabel stated that with regard to the traffic light problem, this was a Gounty road, and it was really a county traffic problem. It was not a problem the City has any control over, even though some of the traffic is ci.ty traffic. She stated it will be the County's decision whether or not a traffic light is needed in this area. Mr. Robinson stated a copy of Mr. Beecroft's letter was provided to the County Engineering staff, and the City has asked the County for comments on Mr. Beecroft's concerns. Ms. Schnabel stated that hopefully these comments would be available for the City Council meeting, Mr. Oquist stated he appreciated the concerns expressed about the traffic, but this new business was not going to bring traffic in from other areas. It would be traffic that travels the road every day now. The only problem it may cause is the traffic going into the store and getting back onto East River Road. Mr. Oquist stated that regarding the not cross East River Road, so he did 6us actually helps to stop iraffic. school bus situation, the children do not see that as a problem. A school Mr. Oquist stated he would like to know what the neighborhood would like to see done with this property. It is a piece of property that is in bad disrepair. It needs something. No single family homes will go in on that site; and at some point, something has to be done with the property, so they need to look at what would be the best use of the property to clean it up and make it a useful piece of property. Mr. Minton stated he thought the traffic question had to be focused. The only difference in the traffic will be the traffic going in and out of this location, but there will be the same number of cars, PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, SEPTEMBER 12. 1984 PAGE 8 Mr. Robinson stated the property was zoned commercial, so a commercial enter- prise could go in on the property without a special use permit. The special use permit was for the fuel pumps. Mr. Robinson stated there will be 15 parking stalls provided on the property, which is more parking than is required by code. MOTION BY MR. SABA� SECONDED BY MS. GABEL� TO CLOSE THE.PUBLIC HEARING ON SP N84-16 BY PATRICIR HOLCOMB AND BERNADETTE BENSON. UPON A VOICE VOTE� ALL VOSING AYE, CHAIRWOMAN SCHNASEL DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED AT 9;00 P.M. Ms. Gabel asked how long it has been since a gas station was operated on this property. Ms. Holcomb stated Standard Oil closed the station in 1972, and there was a 10-year freeze on pumping gas at this location. However, somewhere during that 10-year period someone did pump gas for a short period of time 6ecause there was a relatively new underground tank. MOTION gy MR. MINTON� SECONDED BY MR.

ENGINEERING STAFF TO I�OOK AT THE INGRE5S AND EGRESS OF THE PROPERTY FOR ftECOMMENDATIONS ON TRRFFIC FLOW. Mr. Minton stated that many of the concerns raised by the neighbors were valid, He was more concerned about the stop and go traffic and the congestion that might cause. However, he was not convinced they should stop the development of this property for that reason. He was also not convinced about the argument over the school bus situation, noise, or some of the other reasons, so he was urging the approval of this special use permit. Ms. Schnabel stated she was concerned about the school bus stopping, but not in relationship to this special use permit request, because those school PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, SEPTEMBER 12 1984 PAGE 9 6uses already stop and t�e traffic is already there. These are existing problems. Ms. Schnabe7 stated that, as Mr. Robinson had pointed out, with the exception of the gas pumps, this was a vTable commercial property that could be developed in any number of ways. This was one particular plan and one of the first plans they have had since this property was vacated over 10 years ago. This seemed a viable use for the property, She felt it would be helpful for the City Council if the Engineering staff would look at the ingress and egress of the property to see if they have any recommendations for traffic flow in and out of the property.

Ms. Schnabel stated in talking to someone in another community, a discussion came up about the large satellite dishes that people in rural areas are putting up for television reception. She did not know if the situation would ever arise where people would want to put these dishes up in the metropolitan area. She stated they certainly are an eyesore, and it may be something the Community �eveiopment Corrrnission would want to look at in regard to having something in the ordinance. Mr. Saba stated these large satellite dishes will soon 6e outdated. There is a lot of interest in roof-top mounting of smaller discs, KSTP will be going into this, selling satellite TV, similar to Spectrum. Mr. Oquist stated he definitely thought this was something the Community Development Commission would like to look at. As Mr, Saba had mentioned, if they are in fact going to start having some kind of smaller discs, the City might want to look at this in advance because all of a sudden there could be a lot of those discs on rooftops, and what would it do as far as the aesthetics? He asked that Staff put this on the next Conttnission agenda and give the Commission members a little raore information, if possible. PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING SE?TEMBER i2 1984 PAGE 10 Mr. Sa6a stated that later in the meeting, Mr. P1inton was going to make a report on the status of the Banfill Tavern, He stated maybe the Community Development Commission should get involved with the Human ?esources Commission in looking at the overall piece of property and coming up with some recommenda- tions on what could be done with the property in terms of preserving the historical significance of the property.

Report on Banfill Tavern Mr. Minton stated that 6efore their meeting on Thurs., Sept. 6, the Commission met at the 8anfi1l Tavern and had a tour conducted by Mary Beverage,a member of the Anoka County Historical Society. He stated an article had appeared in the Mpls. Star & Tribune that week so there were some other people who went an the tour who were interested in the Banfill Tavern. Mr. Minton stated after touring the building, one of the conclusions he had come to was that the building was rapidly deteriorating, and there are some huge holes in the boards that cover broken windows. One ceiling has fallen in one of the upstairs bedrooms. The second conclusion he had come to was that it was relatively a large building with a lot of good potential. Mr. hiinton stated that as a result of the article in the paper, they have had at least three serious calls from people interested in having their businesses located in tfie Banfil7 Tavern--two of these people went on the tour and attended the Commission meeting. One woman was very interested in a"bed and breakfast" type of establishment and would also live there. Another person was interested in some kind of boutique arrangement and would live there. The third inquiry was from an arts society in the north suburban area located in the Apache Plaza shopping center irrcerested in having an art gallery and art center in the building. Mr, Minton stated a man attended the Commission meeting who had established a barbershop and home in an old school house in Brooklyn Center. He was interested in looking at the Banfill Tavern for a similar purpose. Mr. Minton stated that right now, the Commission is looking at the possibility of making recommendations which will probably give a number of alternatives: 1. It could be financed by grants from the Minnesota Historical Society. 2. It could be sold to a private individual who could take tax advantages because it is a historical building and restore it. 3. A separate foundation could be established. The foundation could accept contributions as well as grants for this purpose. 4. Or, there could be a lease-back arrangement with the County. Mr. Minton stated the Commission wants to explore these various alter- natives, formulate their recommendations with stipulations and bring them before the Planning Commission and City Council before forwarding them on to Anoka County for Anoka County to take the next step.
