PUBLZC HEAR72JG OPEN AT 7:35 P.M.
D1r. Robinson stated this property was ]ocated on the southeast corner of
Highway 65 and Osborne Road. The present zoning was C-3 (general shopping
center), the fiighest comnercial zoniny. 7he request was to rezor�e to C-2
(general business), which had a lesser setback requirement. The petitioner
was proposing to construct a new medical clinic buildinq, approximately
6,600 sq, ft. The existing chiropractic clinic on the east side of the
property was approx. 1,600 sq, ft. The total lot area was approx. 40,000
sq, ft. before easements granted to the City. In conjunction with the
Harris plat, there were some easements granted to the City that were located
on the south side of the property. Later in the meeting, there was an
informal hearing on the vacation of the existinq Viron Road on the west side
of the property.
PLAPlNITJ6 COMMISSIQN MEETING JULY 23 1986 PAGE 2 �
Mr, Robinson stated that with 6,600 sq. ft. of new medical clinic buildinq,
plus 1,600 sq. ft. of the existing chiropractic clinic, the totai building
area was 8,200 sq. ft. The lot coverage would be approx. 20% with the
vacation of Viron Road,
�4r. Robinson stated Staff was recommending the following stipulations:
1. Revise plan to meet C-2 code or ohtain variances for hardsurface and
bui7ding setbacks.
2. Provide elevations with building facade material details prior to City
Council meeting by 8/11/86.
3. Provide a landscape plan for staff approval prior to building permit.
4. Provide automatic 7awn sprinkling plan for staff approval prior to
building permit.
5. Provide a storm drainage plan for staff approval prior to buildin9 perrnit,
6. Provide a site performance bond to cover site improvements prior to
building permit.
7. Rezoning is contingent upon vacation of Viron Road, site plan, an�i
building facade plan approval.
8. Rezoning is for the approved plan only.
9. Petitioner to provide proof of adequate parkinq for proposed plan,
Mr. tdayne Dahl stated he was the property owner and petitioner. He stated
some of the problems he has with this piece of property are ones that he felt
had been imposed as a result of the City's construction. 41hen he purchased
the property five years ago, it was substantially larger than it is now. The
property has decreased in size because of the Osborne Rd, widening, the
�evelopment of the side lo!, and then the easement for the loopback of Viron
Road. He stated he is noai faced with essentially four front yard type setbacks
which create a most difficult situation to work with. The present zoning
required an 80 ft, setback. If he were to set back 80 ft. from each of the
roads, that left about 40 ft. by 40 ft. in the middle on which to put a
building which was quite imppssible. It became unbuildable property.
Mr. Dahl stated that with regard to the parking, the present plan, if variances
were granted, would meet the �resent code for an office building-type situation
(one parking stall per 25d sq, ft.J
Mr. Bahl stated when the City wanted to put in the loopback for Viron Road,
at that time, he had spoken to Mr. John Flora and they had put in writing
soMe of the terr�s for adding onto the existing building, However, after
talking with the arcViitect, they decided that realistically it was not in their
best interest to add onto the existing build9ng, simply because it was a small
structure and would not be as aesthetically pleasing.
w
PLANNING CO�iNISSION F1EETING, JULY 23, 1986 PAGE 3
Mr. Dahl stated that putting up a nice new structure in the front corner
elevated higher so all the parking would be behind the buildina was much more
aesthetically pleasing. Had the addition been made to the exist�ng building
as agreed upon �aith tfie City, it would not have fallen within the codes
either.
Mr. Billings stated Staff had suggested as one of the stipulations that the
petitioner provide proof of adequate parking for the proposed plan (#9).
Did the petitioner have any other plan of increasing the parking spaces,
other than moving the building north and west?
Mr. Dahl stated the architect designed the plan to provide for one stall
per 250.�J s4uare feet. �he only way parkina could be increased without
a variance would be to shrink the size of the building, Even shrinkinq the
building to 1,000 sq, ft. would only save four spaces. But, if they were able
to move the building 10 ft., that would add about 10 spaces.
Mr. Robinson stated the City recently rezoned the Harris property which was
adjacent to this property from C-3 to C-2 for the simple reason that the
property was not developing as C-3, This proposal was not consistent with
C-3 zoning either, and C-2 was more appropriate.
Mr. Betzold stated he would urge �1r. Dahl to look hard at the parking situa-
tion before the Appeals Commission meeting when he will be applying for
variances and certainly before the City Council meeting. If the par4:ing
cannot be increased, then the petitioner should be able to tell them why.
Right now the City is experiencing questions as to whether the parkin9 ratios
for medical facilities are indeed adequate.

FIEARZNG OPEN AT 7:58 P.M.
Mr. Robinson stated that on two previous occasions, the Planning Cortmission
discussed possible changes to the code regarding day care centers and home
family day care. The research for changing the ordinance was primarily as
a result of an application for a day care center in a single family neighbor-
hood and on a local street. Through thair analysis and in discussions with
the planning Commission, Staff came up with the appropriate changes. These
changes were also discussed informally with the City Council. At this time,
this was a public hearing to officiaTly look at changin9 the code,
Mr. Robinson stated Staff did talk to
Provider, Nancy Jorgenson, the former
Association, and Claudia McPeek, head
on Mississippi St. and Monroe St.
Rhonda Peterson, a current home care
pres9dent of the Anoka County Day Care
of the Rainbow Day Care Center located
Mr. Robinson reviewed the ordinance in its proposed final form, He stated he
had aiso provided each commissioner with a copy of the revised Minnesota Rules
which re7ated to the �rovision for home day care. In the past discussions,
they had said the code wa�fd be changed to allow up to 12 children in a single
family hane. It turned out the provision in the state code allows up to 14
children wfien there are two care providers. Presently, the code allows for
10 children, so they have chanqed the code to be consistent with the State
Rules to allow up to 72 chi7dren with one care provider and up to 14 with
trto care providers.
Ms. Nancy Jorgenson, former president of the Anoka County Day Care Association,
stated she thought the City had done an excellent job Tn updating the code,
She stated that if she could be of further heip, she would be happy to do so.

acate t e ive oot uti ity easement a ong t e sout west praoerty line of
Lot 4, Block l, Innsbruck North Too-m houses, P1at 4, to a point ten feet
west of the southeast property line of the same lot, the same being
5462 P1eister Road N.E.
Mr, Ro6inson stated the vacation request was for a townfiouse lot north of
694 and west of Meister Road. There was presently a 5 ft, drainage and
utility easement on the south of Lot 4, The proposal was to piace a townhouse
on that lot. The building would encroach slightly into the drainage and
uti7ity easement. Mr, Farr had notified the utility companies, and none
of the canpanies had any problem with the vacation.
Mr. Robinson stated the onZy concern raised by the City Engineering [1e{�art-
roent re]ated to the deueio�rnent bnt not specificaTly to this lot. There
Fiave been some maintenance problems (cleaning of some debris in the street,
some sediment/erosion problems, seeding of an area) on a vacant lot on West
Bavariat3 Pass, so the only stipulation the City woe+7d recormend was that the
maintenance probler� be resolved prior to the Aug, 18th City Council meeting.
Mr. �a.n fa�-r state�t he wae representing the Darrel A. Farr Development Co.
He stated they are Tooking for a temporary encroachment onto the easer�ent
as it gaes through the City process. The townhouse has been sold, and they
have a Sept. 15th occupancy date for the move-in agreement. They have gotten
the building permit, and Mr. Darrel Clark said it was all riqht to build
so they have started the excavation for the townhouse.
Mr, farr stated that regarding the lot on West Bavarian Pass, they have two
4-unit townhouses there, one directly on North innsbruck Drive and the other
just off Innsbruck Drive that is being surcharged at this time. They took a
lot of dirt and put it on 41est Bavarian Pass because of bad soil. He stated
they have had some problems, but he believed those prob�ems were being
corrected. He stated tney would like to get the last couple of townhouses
bui7t and get out of the development.
PLANNIN6 COHF7ISSION MEETING, JULY 23 1986 PAGE 6 �
Mr. Robinson stated the temporary encroachment Mr, Farr was referring to
v�ould allow him to build and sell the home prior to the ordinance going
through �ts process. Tf�e Ciiy Councii has the authority to do that and wili
handle that on Aug. 18th. The sediment/erosion prob7em on West Bavarian
Pass should be resolved witfi T1ark Burch, Assistant Public Works Director.

5. DISCUSSION ON SWIMMING POOLS:
Mr, Robinson stated tfie last time this was discussed, the Commissioners had
asked Staff to check for revised national ordinances. He stated staff
had talked to Mike Wokowski, Chief Community Health Sanitarian with the
�9�nnesota Department of Health-Swimning Pools Division. Mr, lJokowski's
recommendation was to maintain a 6 ft. fence because that is part of the proposed
state ordinance for both public and private swir�ning pools.
Mr,Robinson stated some cities do things a little differently. Also included
in the agenda were the ordinance changes suggested by Mr. Saha and the present
Frid]ey Swinming Pool Code.
Mr, Saba stated the whole purpose behind his suggestion that the Swimming
Pool Code be changed was because he felt the ordinance requiring a 6 ft. fence
for soneone who already has a 4 ft. fence around the yard with an above ground
pool was ridiculous. A little toddler or sma11 child cannot climb into a
4 ft, above ground pool when there is no ladder or no means of entrance into
the pool. First, there is the 4 ft. fence, then the wall of the pool, so he
felt there was sufficient restriction or obstruction to a small chil�,
Mr, Saba stated not too many other communities have the 6 ft. requirement.
He fe7t it was a matter of whether the City wanted to have fences inside
fences. He stated the 6 ft. requirement made a lot of sense for below ground
pools where small children can easily fall into the pool, but it did not make
sense when there was already an existing fence, then a 4 ft. wall to climb over.
Mr. Robinson stated the Fridley code was chan9ed in 1975 to conform with the
1970 national code. There has not been any revision to the national code
slnce 1970.
Mr. Saba stated that, as he had stated at an earlier meetinq, another way to
meet the 6 ft, requirement for an above ground pool Yras to install a 2-3 ft.
fence that was attached to the top of the wall. This fencing was not very
sturdy and added a substantial cost to the installation of the pool,
Mr, Robinson stated the basic question was whether the Comission Wd5 comfortable
with a 4 ft, fence versus a 6 ft. fence.
Mr. Billings stated P1r. Saba had mentioned in past minutes about all the
restrictions on swir�ning poo7s, but yet there are creeks and lakes and other
natural bodies of water that have no fencing and no restrictions. He stated
the Human ReSOUrces Commission was planning on taking a look at the natural
bodies of water in the City to see if there was sane kind of need for protec-
tion for young children. Children can just as easily drown in Rice Creek as
they can in a backyard swirsming poo7. He suggested that maybe the Planning
Cormission would ]ike the Human Resources Commission to look at the whole
issue of hoth natural bodies of water and manmade badies of water at the same
time and come back to the Planning Comnission with a recommendation.
PLANNING COM�IISSION MEE7ING JULY 23 1986 PAGE 8 �
Mr. Saba stated that was a possibility. He stated the City was just not
always consistent with the waythey made ordinances and applied laws, They
apply all kinds of restrictions in some areas but not in other areas. There
are manmade holding ponds near playground areas that are often more of an
attractive nuisance tfian a swimming pool, The large holding pond by the
Community Park was a good example.
The Commissioners agreed to recomnend to the Human Resources Comnission
that, as part of their 7986 workplan, they look at the who?e issue of
natural bodies of water and open water as well as swimming pools.
P1r. Robinson stated he would pass this information and material on to
Bill Hunt and the Human Resources Commission.

b, Corrmission Vice-Chairpersons
Mr. Robinson stated that with the resignation of Mr. Oquist, the Planning
Commission was in need of a vice-chairperson. He stated the Commission
would have to elect a vice-chairperson. He stated the Comnunity Develop=
ment Commission was only left with three members and should the City
Counci7 decide to disband the Community Development Commission, the Planning
Corrmission might want to consider an appointed vice-chairperson in order
to maintain the seven member corrnnission. He stated that at this time,
Staff had not had a chance to discuss any of these possibilities,
Mr, Betzold suggested that when this subject is discussed again that a
member of the Correnunity Development Corranission be present at the meeting
to get that commission's feelings.
The Comnissioners agreed with Mr, Betzold's suggestion,
Mr. Robinson stated he had given the Commissioners a copy of Chapter 6,
Commissions from the City code. Chairperson Billings had brought up
the question of the appropriateness of the vice-chairperson of the memher
corrmissions sitting on the Planning Commission in the absence of the
chairperson,
Mr, Robinson stated he had reviewed the wordinq in Section 6,p2,1,D
("The comnissions shall each year from their own members choose a chair-
person and vice-chairperson. Ai any meeting of the commission, if the
regular chairperson is unable to attend, the vice-chairperson shall act
as chairperson.") which could be interpe�eted to allow t1�at. The City
Attorney had agreed with that interpretatior�, but said if there were stronq
feelings on the part of the Planning Cammission, wording could be added
Y
PLANNIfIG COMMISSION MEETING, JULY 23, 1986 PAGF 10
under 6.03.4.E to specifically state that the vice-chairperson should
sit on the Planning Commission when the chairperson could not attend.
Mr. Billings stated thai in the past the vice-chairperson has attended
planning Commission meetings in place of the chairperson. He stated
Section 6.03.4,A. Membership of the Planning Comnission stated: "The
P�anning Commission shall consist of the Planning Comnission chairperson,
the chairperson of the Comnunity Development Commission, the chairperson
of the Parks & Recreation Comnission, the chairperson of the Appeals
Commission, the chairperson of the Environmental Quality Commission, the
chairperson of the Human Resources Comnission, and the chairperson of
the Energy Commission," He stated then they have to go back to
Section 6.02 to pick up the fact that the vice-chairperson shall act
as the chairperson at all meetings of the cnmmission. His only concern
was that it would be easier to add some wording Clarifying the fact that
the vice-chairperson was allowed on the Planning Comnission in the
absence of the chairperson in order to help avoid tie votes. He felt
it was important that when a commission chairperson cannot attend a
PTann�ng Commission meeting that the vice-chairperson be notified and
asked to attend the Pianning Comnission meeting.
Mr, Svanda stated that since the
Commission meetings in the past
be a good idea to clarify it in
The other commissioners agreed,
vice-chairperson has attended Planning
in place of the chairperson, it miqht
the city code.
Mr. Robinson stated he would have Staff put together some word9ng and
bring that back to the next meeting.
University Avenue Corridor Study
Mr, Robinson stated the City Council and the HRA authorized Barton-Aschman to
complete a corridor study for University Hvenue. The Technical Advisory
Commfttee (TAC) for the University Ave. Corridor Study has been canpleted
and consists of University Ave. businessmen, representatives from Holly
Shopping Center, 17oon Plaza, Hyde Park, Sylvan Hills, MnDOT, Anoka County
Highway Dept., John Flora-Fridley Public Works, Jock Robertson-Community
Developu�ent Dept., and Jim Robinson-Planning Division, Virginia Schnabel,
member of the HRA, was chairing the committee.
Mr. Robinson stated that at the first TAC meeting, they discussed the
Scope of Work and discussed the project a�ad Aroblem definition. At the
second meeting, the consuitants presented the analysis. At the third
meeting, the consultant will 6e presenting the midi and maxi concepts.
Some of the primary issues are pedestrian considerations, sidewalks at
6us stops, crosswalks, lightine�, and signage, also the fencing issue.
PLANNING COMFiISSION MEETIPJ6. JULY 23. 1986
Mr. Robinson stated Staff wanted to make the Planning Cortmis5ion aware
of this study and the comnittee.and invite them to attend any or all of
the TAC meetings. The next meeting-was scheduled for Wed., Aug. 11,
at 8:00 a.m, at Fridley City Hall. He stated they will continue to
provide the Planning Commission with the TAC minutes.
d, Memo from City Attorney dated Aug. 2, 1979
Mr, Robinson stated that since there were a couple new members on the
Planning Canmission, he thought it might be helpful for the Commission
members to review the memo from the City Attorney which dealt with
specia7 use permits, variances, and zoning changes.

Program at Faith Academy. These new programs will be a small
extension of the current operation of the school with the
followinq considerations:
AUDIENCE
The Day Care and Latch Key programs are being
established to serve mainly the constituency o£
the school. In the past several years o£
operation Paith Academy has found it necessary
to informally accommodate parents who need to
drop children off early and/or pick them up late,
beyond regularly scheduled school hours. The
Latch Key procram will serve chil�r�n enrolled at
Faith Academy.
Frequently parents must make an additional stop to
drop off a preschool child at another location, The
Day Proyran is being established primarily for the
benefit of the fatrcilies wfivse older children are
attending Faith Academy. If sgaca: is available
after all school faaulies desiring to participate
have been accommodated, other children will be accepted.
It is anticipated that these programs will serve approx-
imately twenty children each.
HOURS OF OPERATION: 6:00 A.M. to 6:30 P.M.

Mr. Jim Robinson
r s :'3T3��I7e
_ The school has had adequate parking in the past for
staff and students. Six spaces along the building
will be reserved for parents dropping off and
picking up their children for these programs. It
is not anticipated that there will be any significant
increase in parking requirements.
DROP OFF POINT
All children participating in the program will be
dropped off at the door near the rear northwest
corner of the building.
Either the Administration of the 5chool or I will be
happy to answer any questions you may have regarding
these new prograMS.
It is our understandinq that this matter will be placed on the
agenda for the July 23 Planning Commission Meeting and the
AugUSt 4 Council Meeting. Representatives of. the school will
be present at both of those times.
Thank you for your assistance.

MEMO T0: Nasim Qureshi MEHO FROM: Daryl Morey MEMO DATE: July 28, 1986
On Plonday Morning, July 28, 1986, I inspected the premises and found the grass
to be long, seven to eight inches on average. I then contacted Faith Academy
and asked them to mow Yfie lawn more often, to keep it from getting this long.
They said that they would mow the lawn more often. I have also included maintenance
of the lawn as a stipulation in their special use permit.

M�TI�'� by Dr. Vos, seconded by Mr. Rezac, to approve the �une 11, 1985, Community
Development Lortmission minutes as written,
UPO'� A VO10E VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERS��i OQUIST DECLARED THE MOTIOt�
CAP,R]ED U1AKIMOUSLY.
1. DISCUSSIO� OF 7NE CITY OF FRIDLEV'S COr4r?;SSI01� STRUCTURE
Mr. Oquist indicated that he had talked to the City Council about the direct;on
of the Community Development Comm;ssion. The Council felt that the comriss�on
could not work with the HRA. Qiscuss�on w;th the Council included having the
comnission review the structure of the comrcissions which could invotve some
reorganization, exploring the neighborhood concept which could include
ident:fying and promot;ng neighborhoods, looking at the concept of accessory
a�artments to See if City ordinance Should in[lude a�cessory apartmerts,
review the comprehensive plan and ask for input from the other commissions,
and Fir. Oquist said he had received informaL�on regarding e golf rourse to
be located near the nature center in Friaiey.
hr. 6yrc^ stateG that restructu r'og the comr:�,ssions would require loo��ng ot
the different work pians to see if there are parallel goals, see where the
needs are and then decide the commissions necessary for those needs.
Mr. Oqu�st provided Dackground inforsnation on the current comm'ssions, hoa:
members are appainted, and what he perceived their funtYion to be.
Mr. Rezac felt the restructuring may be necessary because the needs of tne
City may be different now than when the cor,r�issions were established.
Because of more development in the City, the need for a Comnunity Devetopment
Lommission may be less.
LR��
LaM'tU.'�ITY DEVE�OPMENT COMMISSION MEETING SEPTEMBER 10 1985 PAGE 2
Mr. Burch indicated that the City Council wants input from the commissions.
Mr. Burch contacted other municipalities to see what their comnission
structure was, but stated he did not get the response he had hoped. Each
municipality is different. In Fridley, the City Council has the power to
5et up the structure as they woutd like anE can a15o create tortmiss�ons to
investigate a particular subject.
- Mr. Rezac suggested creating a body to meet on demand which could eliminate
comnissions looking for direction. Dr, Vos indicated that ad hoc comn;ttees
could serve a similar purpose.
Mr, Oquist explained the process of organizing a commission and indicated
that it can be a lengthy process and can be diffitult to get a group back
together once disbanded.
Mr. Rezac noted that, in the infortnation included tin the agenda, most of the
developed communities did not have a community development committee. Mr.
Oquist stated that some commun;ties have community development departments as
part of their city Staff.
Mr. Burch indicated thai in Fridley this function would be part of the
planning department, and they are part of Public Works.
pr. Vos indicated that even though there are not a large number of commissions
to review it would be necessary to look at the entire system in order to make
a recomnendation back to the City Council.
Mr. Burch noted that he felt the restructuring was a Planning Comrission
function; however, Mr. pquist indicated that the commission had been requested
to rev;ew the structure by the City Louncil.
Commission members indicated an interest in pursuing further the restructuring
but would like to have additionai information before proceeding. 14r. 6quist
stated that at this time he felt the Comnunity Development Coimission would
look at Lhe comcission structure starting right beiow the City Council level
and that this De discussed further a2 the t�ovember meeting. He requested
that Jim Robinson be asked to attend that meeting to provide add;tional
informaLion and ezplain the system as it now is set up.
Mr. OquisL also naLed the Qistussion regarding estahlishing neighborhoods
in Fridley. 7he conteQt sia�ted several years ago to identify neighborhoods
in the city similar �p tF�se in Minneoyolis. 7he neighGorhoods in Ifinneapolis
were estab7ished as a resuit of a concnDn bond such as ethnic group which would
be hard ta ident�fy in FridTey.
Mr. Rezac felt that this may be difficult to do because residents may chose
not to participate.
Dr. Vos felt that neighborhoods would be a personal choice rather thar� a
function of government.
Mr. Oquist felt that this could reouire additional staff time and would need �
dedicated people in the comnunity in order to succeed.
41
COM".Ur,ITY DEVELOPM'cNT COMM�ISSI4N MEETIN6, SEGTEMBER 10, 1985 PAGE 3
Mr, ourch 6rought up the idea of a comnittee to find events for the
community as a whole and/or promote community spirit,
Mr. Oquist felt that community spirit could be promoted through functions
such as 44er Days, dedications, art shows, etc. These functions could also
involve the Chamber of Comnerce. It could also be possible to have a
subcommission to look at the concept of neighborhoods and promotion and
- make a recortmendation to the Comnunity Development Comnission.
Mr. 6abe1 suggested inviting the Dlock captains to a future meeting to get
their ideas.
The commission will discuss the neighborhood concept again at a future
meeting.
Mr. Oquist indicated that the comprehensive plan could also be reviewed,
Some areas of the plan may need updating. Mr, Burch was asked to provide
a copy of the comprehensive plan to corrmissi�n members who did not have a
COpy.
Mr. Oquist indicated that he had received some information about the oolf
course, and there seems to be quite a bit of interest in this project. Mr.
Steve Nelson is on a coRUnittee to oDtain signatures to bring the subject
to a vote. The petition has 167D signatures, a refe rendum requires 2500.
Mr. Rezac exoressed an interest in pursuing the issue of a 9olf course. He
felt that the commission could look at the site, hear the pros and cons,
gather the necessary data, and make a recommendation based on what is best
for the City.
Mr, Burch explained the area being discussed for the golf course noti�g
that the land is adjacent to the nature center. He indicated that the golf
course and nature center appear to be compatible and that there is land
available around the nature center. He also noted that a trucking company
had requested a permit to build on a tract of the available land and he did
not know if there would be enough land available for a golf course.
Mr. Oquist distributed info+mation on the golf course issue. Commission
members expressed an interest in pursuing the subject further,
Mr. Rezac noted that more informaiion would be necessary such as the number
of acres availabie, type of land to see if ii is suited for a course, a
report oR the n�Lure center includ;ng budgei snformation, and talking with
a golf course desegner.
Mr. Oquist noted that the nature center is busy and that about 100,000
people visit there each year. 7he center spends approximately 5115,000 of
taxpayers money.
Mr. OquiSt indicated that he would like more information and feedback. He
suggested asking Dudne Prairie, of Park Construction Co., and Mr. Steve �+elson
to attend the next meeting. Mr. Burch was asked to provide a�aps shov�ing
the area and indicating the Yotal number of acres, acres being used by the
nature ce�ter, and report back on the status af the permit for the truc�ing
company.

Mr. Oquist also requested Mr. Burch to talk with City staff to see what
they thought about pursuing this issue.
MJTION 4y Mr. Rezac, seconded by Dr. Vos, to further explore the issue of
ihe golf Course, that the next meeting �f the commission be an information
gathering session, and that Steve Nelson and Sob Arnette be asked to attend.
= UPOtI A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE� CHAIRPERSON OQUIST DECLARED THE MOTION
CARRIED UtJANIM0U5LY.
Mr. Oquist indicated that the commission could also look at the concept of
accessory apartments. Accessory apartments are currently not allowed
according to city ordinante and it may be time to recormiend a change.
Mr, Burch was asked to copy materials from the State of Minnesota an�
have them available to distribute to commission members at a future meeting.
This topic was tabled for discussion at th:s time.

Mr. Burch noted that Louis Schmidt had 5ubmitted his resi9nation from the
coRani ssi on.
Mr. Burch also noted that the agenda contained information regarding accessory
apartments.
UPON A VOICE YOTE, ALL VO'TING AYE. LHAIRPERSON OQUIST DECLARED THE MOTION
CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY,
1. DISCUSSION Of THE GOLF COURSE-SPRINGBRODY, NATURE CENTER
Chairperson Oquist indicated that �4r. Barnette had brought the subject of
a golf course adjacent to the nature center to the Lity Coun�il. At that
time, Mayor Nee asked the commission to take a look at the issue and see if
this wou7d be feasible.
Mr. Barneite provided the commission members with some background information
on the nature center and past efforts to bring a golf course to fridley. At
this t:�, a qolf course is being proposed on the land adjacent to the nature
center. Mr. Earnette fee]s that a golf course would be 9oad for the cortmunity
and could enhance the nature center. t!e also indicated that if nothin9 further
fiappens the carr�ittee obtaining signatures on a petition would continue with
their efforts and the issue would come to a vote.
Mr. Barnette estimated cvns2ruciion costs to be 51,200,000. Members were
given copies of statistital information from numerous municipal golf courses
in the area noting that 15 of the 17 have made money. ln addit�on to revenues
earned from golf, the area could also be used in winter for cross country
skiing making the co�rse and naLure eenter usable year-round.
Chairperson Oquist questioned whether the area was saturated with golf courses.
_�n
LOkNUNITY DEVELOPM:NT COhA1I5S10q MEETING OLTOBER 8, 1985 PAGE 2
Mr. Barnette stated that in a study this area was found to be most lackin9.
He recorm�ended a re9ulation 18-hole course and added that a good course could .
De constructed on a minimum of 300 acres depending on the layout,
Mr. Sarnette n�ted that the trees. ponds. drainage ditches are all assets to
a golf course and can be used constructively in the desi9n of a course. He
_ also stated that some land is available west of the railroad tracks in Coon
- Rapids.
Dr. Vos asked which areas of the nature center were most used,
Mr. Bar�ette noted that the central and westerly areas of the center have the
most use. It may be possible to use the eastern edge of the nature center as
part of a golf course and not interfere with ti�e nature center or its programs.
Mr. Burch inditated that he had talked to Siafi St. Clair, Naturalist, Springbrook
Nature Center. Mr. St. Clair had stated that a golf course around the nature
center would be good and would provide an additional buffer for the center.
pr. Vos asked how much of the nature center could be used for a golf course
and still keep both parties satisfied.
Mr. Barnette indicated that this would need to be compromised, should it be
necessary.
Chairperson Oquist noted ttat the NRA would also need to get involved for
land acquisition.
Mr. Burch indicated that tie HR.4 has the power to create a district and can
declare an area as a rede elopment zone if the area is blighted.
Mr. Barnette noted that :he soil in this area is generally substandard and
generally not suited to '�uilding. It would be suited for a golf course because
a course does not requi�a stable soil.
Chairperson Oquist ask .f about the status of the proposed trucking company.
Mr. Barnette indicated that the request from the trucking company had been
approved by the ;,iiy Council and will now go to a public hearing. The
cortpany woutd use a��roximately 30 acres of the land being looked at but
Mr. Barnette did naL think ihis would create a problem, The company would
also provide revenurs to the Lity. N.r, 8arnette added that any profits made
from a go?f course would go inYo the general fund to offset the costs of
other pr�jects.
Mr. Burcfi indicated that the area is part of a watershed district and it is
possibie to get funds from the district for developmeni of water control.
The commission members reviewed an aeriaS map showing atr2ages, land available,
location of nature center and existing businesses.

COMNUi�1TY DEVELOPMENT COMItI55I0PJ MEETING, 4CTOBER 8, 1985 PAGE 3
Mr. Oquist requested to know the availability of the land west of the rail-
road tracks in Coon Rapids. He also requested that Mr. St. Clair attend a
meeting to discuss the concept. and that he would like to see if a course
could be developed with a minimal effect on the nature center.
Mr. Barnette indicated that he would contact a designer to see if he wculd
6e willis�g to look at the maps and the site and give their opinion as to
_ whether they felt a golf course feasible.
Mr. Rezac indicated that the Chomonix Golf Course in Circle Pines has been
p�ofitable as a 9-hole course. The critical part is the bonding that could
drain cash flow. Acquisition of land could be a problem. He added that an
advantage to this area is the quantity of raw land.
Mr. Gabel requested more information on land acquisition and the costs involved.
Mr. Barnette indicated that he did not know what land acquisition cost would
be. The land is held by a number of different owners. He noted that Mr. lnman
had done some studies which show that a golf tourse would work over a 20-year
period.
Mr. Burch indicated that he felt staff could fairly accurately determine the
acquisition costs and development costs for the commission.
Dr. Vos asked what possible employment this would bring to the community.
Mr. Barnette estimated employment of 5 or 6 full-time employees and 50-60

Hr. Burcfi indicated ifiat each year the City of Fridley receives CDBG funds.
However, for 2986 there has been a significant reduction in the amount of
funds allocated. The proposal, included in the agenda, Was reviewed uith
the commission.
One of the projects for 1986 includes Human Sett'ices. Human Services
usually receive 15% of the funds and the Human Resources Committee usu�lly
allocates those funds. :� list of allocations for 745; �;rrc
re�'ie�:ed. Mr. Burch thought that much the same Would be done in 1986, bui
Decause of reduced funding, some reductions in ihe pro�rams uo�ld nee� to
be madc.
Mr. Burch revieued improvements proposed for the center cit}• area. The
County will be working on the Mississippi interseccion includin� wid�nii��;
the intersection, installing nex signals, land�capinF thc boule�:�rd�,
installing sideualks, and perhaps adding somc lightin�. Another item
included in public improvements is related to tAe contest held last }�ear
to design artwork for t6e center citp area. 'fhis is stili being considered.
Mc. Burch reviewed the attachments includin� draaings of ttw proposed
projects. The brick pattern uould be continued throu�h the intersection.
Mr. Burch noted that the Count}• would pay for most of thc work on ihc
intersection. The City' uould pa}' for landscaping, added costs for thc
brickwork, and a portion of the signals and lighting.
Mr. Burch indicated that a number of businessmen in the azea hacc
mentioned doing something along Uni�ersity A��enue to make Fridley more
noticeable. A corridor study �as suggested. This could include lighted
street name sigr�s on L'niversity Avenue. Mr. Botch noced that chey had
seen signs that were back lit and were ver}' nicelooking.
Mr. Burch added that another project could De signs in the Plaza area
which clearly show uhere the clinic, police department, Tar�et, etc. are
locaced. This Mould also Ae part of the Plaza Center improvement.
Mi. Burch indicated that in tne acea of crime prevention the police
department is trying to nelp the lo�: income and elderly residents get
good locks installed on their doors. Mr. ButcTr uill check to see what
area of the City these low income and elderly persons reside.
Dr. Yos felt cAat this uouid fit the goals af the Community Development
Block Grant.

Yr. Burch noted that another area is the development of Rivervieu Heights
Park �hich involves acquisition of property and relocation of residents.
ihe plan is progressing steadily. The committee revieued the attachment.
Hr. Burch indicated that this project requires approzimately ;50,000.
However, the funds could be matching funds if the City receives a LA�;CO�
grant.
Dr. Vos and Mr. Oquist indicated they liked ihe idea of the studp for
improvements along University. ,
Mr. Hurch agreed that it �:ould be nice to do something because with tlic
additional development, additional traffic uould be coming throu�h thc
area.
MOTIO� by Dr. Yos, seconded by Mr. Gabel, that the Community De��eloyment
Commission support the follouing Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
projects in this order: 1) Human Services to receive 15'. of the allocation.
2) Crime Prevention Securit}� hardGare, 3) Uni��ersit�� and Mississippi li�•,hted

Mr. Burch outlinadthe problems w'hich brougt�t about the ordina�ice, namel}•
pcople vho are parking their cars on the roadua}� or right-of-w�ay for thc
purpose of selling the vehicle. Mr. Burch noted that this has been
particularly noticeable on East River Road. The ri�ht-of-way is for
street utilities and signs. This has Deen difficult to enforce and thc
proposed ordinance erould deal �.'ith the problem and hely with enforcement.
Dr. �bs wanted to clarify that a��ehicle for sale can Ge parked on thc
dri��e�a� but not on the road in front of the house. But if thc Foz Salc
sign is remoced from the car, then it is okay to park the car on t1�e ruad.
Mr. Oquist felt a resident should be able to �:ast�, grcase or fix thcir
vehicle on the street as long as the vehicle is moved uithin 24 t�ours.
This time o: Z4 6ours is spelied out in a current ordinance.
Mr. Burch indicated that the "princiyai p�rpose" is for selling a vehicle
but it ma}' De difficult to knocr if sellin6 is the principal purpose.
Dr. Vos agteed �:ith the requirement that vehicles for sale should not be
parked in the front or side }•ards or on the right-of-way�. He felt ttiat
iil of the proposed ordinance uould be difficult to enforce because thcrc
are too man}' variables.
Mr. Oquist agreed. The commission members felt that 4t2 of the ordinancc
was clear and fair, but felt that 4t1 should be reviewed.

Commission minutes, Dr. Boudreau har± stat?d that Nr. Brickner was
requesting that the City a11ow the purchase of the triangular
piece of property in the northwest corner of Creekpark Lane. Dr, Boudreau
had stated the advantages to the City would be additional tax revenue �
from four new homes, 54,500 in park fees, removal of existinc� rented older
home, the elimination of a special assessment cost with interest accruing
against the city property� elimination of maintenance costs on buildable
substandard lots, and the property would then conform to adjacent develop-
ments. Also stated in the ninutes was that it was the concensus of the �
Parks 8 Recreation Comnission menbers that they saw no problem with pur-
suing this purchase with Mr, 8rickner.
Ms. Schreiner stated she did not see any value in this property remaininq

r�rD n�TE: July 30, 1986
I2�ARDING: Creekridge Park Expansion
At Council's request staff has analyzed the possible aa7uisition of some or
all of Riciiard Bricimer's property north of CYeekridge Park.
�
�e total azea of the existing park is approximately 2.8 acres. The park is
presently imprwed with a single liqhted tennis court with an attached
t�sketball glay area, a tot lot, a free play area with t�ckstop and a holding
pond. In the winter, a lic�ted skating area apFxoximately 150' x 50' is also
prw ided.
AczTuisition of the aouthezly two �xoposed Brickner lots as well as all four
proposed lots would yield the following park areas: (�e triangular portion
held b� the City of Fridley is included in both options.)
Pazcel Aieas
7bta1 P,c�uisition 2.9 acres

Presently the Assessors 1986 estimate � mazket value includes: $47,700 for
the northerly g3rce1 vith t1�e preaia�sly existing house (proposed parcels
A-B) and, $6,100 for the tack lot (pcopoaed parcels GD) which is valued as
additiorial square footage for the front lot on1y.
Botl� existin9 parcels with the house in plaoe were purchased b� Mr. Brickner
in August of 1983 for $47,000.
4he oosts of acquiring the Brickner lots has been estimated using three
methods:

1. Assessors estimate of aa3uisition cost assuming landlocked status for
proposed Parcels C and D with builc�ble status for pzoposed Paroels A and

2. Assessors estimate of aajuisition oost assuning buildable status f or all
four proposed parcels.
3. Fstimating Paroels C and D at $.76/�. ft, (based on Gena Fae costs) with
Paroels A and B estimated as builchble lots.
Although actual aoquisition oosts would be based on a negotiated or court
determined settlenent, the f ollowing table provides a range of financial
exposure based on assemblage options and property status, i.e, buildable vs.

An additional cost associated with the possible ao�uisition includes waiving

are currently held in abeyance but are accrain9 iriterest. The assessments
for two future lots, for sewec, watei and street, oome to a total of $17,944
plus acczueo interest of $3,046.62 (through 7/3�/86) for a total of
$20�990.62.
FFAR7RTT.TTY
I spoke with t'huck Boudreau and Jack Iti.rk rec�rding two other issues zelated
to the potential aa�uisition including, the safety r�nifications of having a
�rk subdivided bi a street ar�d the usability of the additional acceage.
�e creation of an attractive nuisanoe is a uajor oonoern by staff. Safety
would need to be analyzed, addcessing street signage and crosswalk
designation. Good visibility would also have to be maintained.
An euisting City gazk, Slmmit Squate is presernly developed on the north and
south of Hughes Avenue. Dr. Boudreau laiew of no pedestzian/auto accidents
associated with this pack layout.
54
Jock Robertson
July 30, 1986
Page 3
In discussing usage. we concluded that the potential acquisition parcels
wauld only be usable for g3ssive use such as tot lot glay, seating/picnicing
and use for the glaygro�md program (especially if an open type shelter was
prwided). Moving the tot lot across the street could be readily
accamplished. However, t2�e benef it to the active use of the exi.sting park is
questionable due to the urplaoe develognent which glaces the tennis crourt in
the middle � the park pzErluding expansion of the existinq softball/play
area to a more desireable size.
Finally, Dr. Boudreau felt that the Parks and Recreation Commission would
most likely be interested in analyzing the potential for any significant
addition to the existing park. At their last meeting on July 14, 1986 they
made a motion urging Gouncil to sell the triangular piece of property on
CYeek Park Lane to Mr. Brickner. It should be noted that at that time the
Cbrmnission was not apprised of the potential addition of any or all of the
Bricknez property.

Pfr. Meyer asked what this new letter of credit replaces. Mr. Qureshi
stated the HRs1 had an agreement with Mr. Lundgren for his development
which became null and void in May and this included a letter of credi[.
He stated the HIU1 entered into a new agreement and a new letter of
credit, ronforming to the new agreement, was requested.
hh�, Afeyer questioned wha[ [his letter of credit means in terms of
Mr. Lundgren�s project.
D1r. Qureshi scated if the HRA performs atl their obligations and
there is a default on [he part of the developer, the FIkA has the
right to ca11 in this letter of credi[ for $200,000.
Ns. Meyer asked if the HRA v�vld have to show damages for this
amount.
P1r. Nevc�an stated the letter of credit is active now and if ?�h. Lund-
gren doesn't have his financing established by August 1, under the
terms of the contract and letter of credit, the HRA can call for
the full amount of $200,000.
Mr. Qureshi stated as parc of the agreemen[ with Mr. Lundgren, the
HRd would acquire property for the construction of the building.
He requested the HRA consider Resolution No. HIiA 9-1986 which auth-
orizes the acquisition of Lot 1, BLock I, SyLvan Hi11s Plat 7, 248

sta[ed they have a temporary permit for some gravel parking, how-
ever, i[ expired the end of June and they need some remedial
action in order to continue the parking.
hh. Qureshi stated because Columbia Park Properties have decided
- no[ [o expand at this time, they propose to lease the property [o
serve their parking needs. He stated the HRA would have to decide
whether they wish to extend the op[ion for [wo more years by
leasing property to them. He stated, hopefully,before the end of the
two years, Columbia Park Properties can firm up their plans and
proceed with construction. He stated if this cannot be accomplished,
they would have no further rights to the property.
Pfr. Qureshi stated from a planning point of view; it makes more sense
for [he clinic to expand zather than bringing in another development
to the west of the clinic's property.
Ph-, Qureshi sta[ed staff woUld recommend the HRA enter in[o a lease
agreement for two years beginning June 1, 1986 at [he rate of $15,OD0
per year. He stated after this period, the op[ion on the property
would expire. He s[ated [he por[ion of the property used for parking
should be blacktopped and the balance tes[ored as it was before the
[emporary parking permit,

6. ST:�TUS R£POR`T 0:� F�RAING FOR FRIDLEl' PL'.ZA OFFICE EL'ILDIIdG PAP.TNEP.SHIP:
Tk. Qureshi stated the HRA received a copy of a letter sent [o Ph.
Doty and the trustee of the fYidley Plaza Office Building Partnership
dated June 30, 1986, by Mr. Dave Newman. He stated this let[er is in
regard to non-payment for use of [he parking lot.
Ph�. Newrran stated the HR.4 received a copy of the lease they entered
into aitt� the Fridley PZaza Office Building Partnership for joint
use of the parking lot.
HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AtITHORITY MEETING NLY 10 1986 PAGE 5
I� . Newman s[ated the lease provides that beginning on July 1 of
las[ year, the tenant was to pay rental of $8D0 per month for the
non-exclusive use of the parking lot. He s[ated none of the pay-
ments have been made.
I�. Newman stated correspondnece has been sent to Mr. Doty regarding
_ his in[entions, but no formal response has been received.
Mr. Newman s[ated a letter was sent on April 30, 1986 to Mr. Do[y
and [he [rustee regarding this default. He stated he has not re-
ceived any wri[ten correspondence in reply to his let[er.
I�K. Newman s[ated he felt the HRA should be aware of this situation
so a determination can be made on how [hey wish to pro�eed.
Mr, Doty stated the lease also provides for 166 parking spaces and
there ate only 142 and this number decreases with spaces reserved
for City visitors and vehicles and the handicapped parking. He
stated there has been a parking problem for [he last 18 months
and it has been that long since he brought i[ to the atten[ion of
Ci[y officials. He stated to ignore the problem isn't much of a
solution. He stated [he $800/month isn't [he problem, but he wants
someone to talk to them [o resolve the parking problem, He sta[ed
if there were 166 spaces, there wouldn't be a problem.
D�. Qureshi stated arrangemen[s have been m�de with Target to use
[heir lo[ to park 27 vehicles. He s[a[ed if you take that into
consideration, there are more chan 166 spaces for the City Aall
and the office building. He stated [heze are spaces available to
park 166 vehicles, even though all of [hese aren't striped. Ptr.
Qureshi sCa[ed if it is the desire to show 166 parking spaces,
ochers could be striped to meet this requirement. He stated [he
argument that they don't have 166 parking spaces so they are not going
to pa}' the amount provided for in the lease agreement doesn't
seem reasonable.
P�. Doty sta[ed all he is asking is for his day in court and for
someone [o lis[en. He suggested the parking between the office
building and City Ha11 be designated as visitor parking and limited
[o one-half hour, wi[h ten minute parking along [he curb. He stated
if tlne width of [he parkzng spaces was reduced fzom 10 feet to 9
feet, you vould gain 12 additional spaces. Pir, Doty stated boCh
the clinic and Target have nine foot parking spaces.
Mr. Qureshi stated he has discussed with the Cicy Council the
possibility of reducing the width of some parking spaces.
I�h. Co�ers asked who was responsible and why someone hadn't talked
with t�s. Dot�•.
HOUSIhG & REDEI'ELOPMEA'T AL�THORITY MEETII3G JULY 10 1986 PAGE 6
1�. 13ewman stated he felt this was a two-way street. He stated
several efforts were made to contact Fh. Doty and he promised
a letter in which he would ou[line his position, bu[ it was never
received.
Mr. Doty stated he does plead suilty in not vriting a letCer, bu[
would rather talk [o them in person.
I�h. Commers felt staff and Mr. Doty should try to solve this problem
and if they cannot, the HI2A will then address it.
1�, Meyer stated if the liR� is guaranteeing I66 parking spaces, he
feels they have an obligation to furnish these and, if this cannot
be done, the lease agreement should be revised.
Mr. Doty stated it has been
rata basis. He stated the
isn't sufficient parking.
suggested the cost be reduced on a pro-
issue isn't really the cost, but there
htr, newman s[ated he and s[aff would try to solve this problem with
Mr. Doty. He s[ated if it can't be resolved by the next meeting,
it �y be necessary to proceed wi[h some 1ega1 action,
7. WINFIELD DEVELOPPIEA"T'S REQIIEST FOR ASSISTANCE:
1fi-. Qureshi s[ated I•h . Winkels appeared before the tiR.a a[ their last
meeting and ad¢ised them about the soil problems a[ [heir proposed
construction site. He stated Winfield Development is requesting
assistance from [he HRA to correc[ the soil problems.
Mr. Qureshi stated the HRA in the past has provided assistance for
soil correction to several developments such as Mr. Paschke's,
Johnson Printing and Vantage Companies. He state�3 staff would
recommend the ARA provide $30,000 in assistance as [he estimated cost
for correction is in excess of $116,000.
Ph. Winkels stated I5,000 yards of rr�a[erial need to be removed.
He stated he understands there is some concern why they didn'[
take this in[o consideration when the property was purchased four
years ago. He stated they did no[ anticipate the severity of
Che problem and it came to light when the U.S. Swim & Fi[ness C1ub
was nnd�_r c�nstruction. Pfr. Wznkels sta[ed the material [o be
rer.nved is wF�ere actual construction uf the building would take
p�ace and a part of [he parking area. He stated it doesn't involve
the entire site, hut goes beyond the building itself.
Mr, Qureshi sta[ed the property is not in a Redevelopment District.
He s[ated if this was the desire of the HRA, it would be necessary
to go through the formal procedures to include it in the increment
district.
HOLSING & RED£VELOPMEA"T AtSTfiORITY t�ETII:G JULY 10 1986 PAGE 7
Ph. Meyer stated he thought i[ was unusual that Winfield Develop-
men[ didn't have knowledge of the poor soil conditions when they
purchased the property.
Mr. Winkels sta[ed they did have soil tests done and the logical
question now is if [hey are coming back after the fact. He stated
- the severity of [he problem was not known at [hat time.
I•h. Winkels s[ated they are trying for an upscale project and a11
indicators are the market is right for such a building. He stated
[hey can't cons[ruct something that doesn't make sense economically.
He s[ated they may be asking for a fair amount in terms of percent-
ages, bu[ didn'[ feel it was out of line in [erms of the value of the
projec[ and amount of taxes generated,
A1r. Commers sta[ed the recommendacion from scaff is for $30,000 in
assistance. He asked I�h. Winkels if he was s=_ying if [hey have [he
$90,000 requested the projec[ would definitely proceed.
Ptr, Winkels scated [hey have to make some decisions in the nex[
several wecks and should know if [he}• wi11 receive [he bond. H�
sta[ed he is no[ saying if [hey don'[ receive the assistance, the
project wouldn't proceed. He s[ated [hey want to have a11 [he
information available to make [he bes[ decision.
Ah'. Qureshi sta[ed taking into accoun[ wha[ has been done in the
pas[, $30,000 seems a reasonable figure, bu[ i[ is the HRA's
prerogative to increase or decrease this amoun[.
Ph-. Prairie stated i[ may be a 1ittle higher than [he others, but
seemed reasonable.
P1r. Meyer s[a[ed if the facts are [hat [he soil carrection is going
to be, basicall��, under [he building, it is crucial [o the develop-
rr�nt and felt [he $30,000 figure was reasonable.

A, RICE PL�2� - PII2. LE�'Y:
Pfr. Levy, Rice Plaza, stated he would like to request the HRd to
either remove Rice Plaza from their Redevelopment District or proceed
witb a plan Co acquire the en[ire parcel.
P7. Levy stated he understands the County has engaged appraisers co
look at the property on a joint basis relative to the needs of thc
HR� and County. He stated he understands tfie appraisers have pro-
vided sa:ne preliminary informacion.
Th. Comrrers s[ated ihe 14R�+ has not been presented with any infor-
mation from the appraiser. He s[ated he had no problem with
considering [his item at ihe next meeting, if figures are available.
Mr. Qureshi felt two elements are involved. He stated one is the
general philosophy if the HRa wants to acquire [he property at this
time when they don't have approved plans for this site. He stated,
on the other hand, if the HRA felt it was prudent to acquire it,
cost figures would have co be presented at the next meeting.
P�. Commers feit this sl�ouid �e cone so socae decision could be made
whether or not to acquire the property so I� . Levy and his tenants
will know where they stand.
HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETING. NLY 10. 1986 PAGE 9
t�tr. Gommers stated [he history of che EiRA has been, unless there
is a specific purpose to acquire property, they are hesitant to
do so and hold it for any length of time. He felt the distinction
here if property is being [aken for right-of-way and the Lundgren
project, it would make sense to proceed and perhaps acquire the
entire parcel. He stated, however, they may not financially be
in a position to do so.
Mr, prairie stated he has no[ heard of any costs and felt further
informa[ion was needed before considering [his item.
Mr. Meyer s[ated he is not philosophically opposed to taking the
entire parcel. He sta[ed i[ would depend on the cost and these
figures should be available by the August HRA meeting,
Mr. Levy sta[ed there is a"range" figure, but he hasn't had a
chance to evaluate i[. He felt if [hey don't reach a point after
the Augus[ meeting where the HRA either takes them out of the
Redevelopmen[ District or have a negotia[ion process to acquire
the proper[y, [he Lines would be drawn from which they could work.
He stated he would wait un[il the August mee[ing so the HR� can
review the cost figures.
Mr. Levy stated the appraiser is reluctan[ to share the figures
wi[hout specific au[horization from [he County and HAA. He stated
he would like [he oppor[uni[y to review [hem and respond before
[he August mepting.
D�. Newman s[ated he didn'[ have a problem with the appraiser re-
leasing these figures, bu[ i[ is [he County who ordered the appraisal
and he would have to contact them.
Mr. Commers asked Mr. Newman to convey to [he Coun[y tha[ the HRn
has no objections to disclosing these appraisal figures.
hh. Newma❑ stated it would seem prudent co have Ph. Levy's feedback
for the next meeting.
B, �PPOIh"fMEn'i' OF HRa EXECtiTIlTE DIRECTOR:
Atr. Qureshi stated ia accordance with an agreement between the City and
the HRa, it is necessary for the HR�1 to approve the selection of an
Executive Director. He stated i1r. Jock Rober[son was hired as tne
City's Community Development Director and has assumed the job res-
ponsibilities once held by Jerry Boardman who served as the Executive
Director of the �.
t�. Qureshi stated ar informa[ional pzck.et regarding t�fr. Robertson`s

Mr. Ro6erts�ia be consi�iesed for appointment as the Executive Director.

Th-. Commers stated he felt this matter should be carried over to
the next meeting and placed on the HRA's agenda as a formal item
so a vote may be taken by the HRA.
C. APPOINTMENT OF VICE-CNAIRPERSON OF Tt� HR.1:
Mr. Commers requested that the appointmen[ of a Vice-Chairperson for

Chaitperson Coimners, Duane Prairie, John Pleyer and Walter Rasmussen.
5. UPDATE On I/+KE POIr'TE CORPOPv1TE CENTER:
Pff . Newman stated the HRA has received correspondence ou[ling the
summary of some proposals staff presented in an attempt to resolve the
impasse with Woodbridge Properties.
Ptr. Newman sta[ed a meeting uas held on Tuesday, July 8, 1986 which
Chairperson Commers attended and what evolved from that session were
suggestions the developer should meet certain benchmarks for con-
struction. He stated the developer didn'[ want to be tied to a
cer[ain schedule because of fluc[uations in the market and conflicts
with permits. He stated, by the same token, Che staff wanted certain
requirements for perfozmance through the course of this development.
l�h. Newman stated the developer was concerned because of the delays
with the Indireet Source Permit and contracts being re-bid, he is
incurring some damages. He stated when construction does commence,
landscaping will not be completed as originally visioned,
P1r. Newm3n sLaYed the concept proposed was if the developer could
conplete the entire pro,iect and meet benchmarks of 120,000 square
feet co�anleted bt next yeaz; 2Q4,000 square feet completed in five
years; 40�,060 scpaaxe feet comp2eted in ten years and 749,000 square
feet completed in fifteen years, he Qrohably should be entitled to
the $5.6 million revenue note plus interest.
t�. Newman stated if the increment isn't sufficient to make the
annual payment, it is lost forever. He stated if the developer
is able [o meet these benchmarks, the payment could be recovered
at the end.
HOUSING & REDEVELOP*fEA'T AUTHORITY MEETII�G,_JULY 10 1986 PAGE I1
h7. Newman s[ated it is anticipated the costs of the public im-
provements will exceed the amount budgeted. He stated it was
agreed the HRA will share those costs with the developer to the
ex[en[ they exceed the original projections. Mr. Newman stated the
}�gA agzees to make the improvements [o Highway 65 which may be
required under the Indirect Source Permit. He stated the parties
_ will cooperate to obtain the Indirec[ Source Permit for the
least amount of improvemen[ to Highway 65.
Pfr. Aewman stated the next step would be for the developer to provide
the sum of $1,000,000 to the ilRa and they, in [urn, would provide
him wi[h a deed for Phase I parcel and then complete acquisi[ion of the
Johnsan property. He eteted within IS da�s after receipt of the $1,000,000,
contracts would be ac:arded for the public improvements, with
[he excep[ion of [he landscaping. Mr. Newman stated within 12 months
of awarding the firs[ contrac[, the HRA agrees to complete the
improvements on the site.
Aff. Newman sta[ed construc[ion would commence four months after
conveyance of this parcel or by November 30 of this year, wi[h
construction comple[ed within 30 mon[hs. He stated [he buildings
would be substantially comple[ed, but the interior walls may not
be in place until space is leased. Nh. Newman stated [hose dates
of completion may be delayed in the event the permits which need to
be issued by the Ci[y are no[ given. tle stated the City would not
unreasonably withhold the permits if plans are consis[en[ wi[h the
agreemen[.
Mr. Newman stated if the City can'[ have [he improvements of Highway
65 finished by July L, 1989 because of reqUirements of the Indirect
Source Permit, the developers obliga[ion to meet [hese construction
deadlines will be set back for a likely amoun[ of time.
I�h. Newman sta[ed if the developer completes the construction schedule
and the increments are not sufficient, the HRA agrees to pay that
sum to him, He stated those arrearages will accrue interest at the
rate of 90 day Treasury Bills and if an arrearage occurs, it allows the
HR� to go in and fund those arrearages.
D�. Newirian stated Woodbridge, to date, has incurred some substantial
engineering costs estimated at a6oUt $75,000 for preparation of the
public improvements on the site. He stated 4loodbridge has decided to
fron[ those expenses, howeve_, orce the $1,000,000 is paid, the HR+
would reimburse for these costs providing they are reasonable and in
line with cus[omary charges.
I�fr. Commers stated this was tt�e first tis,e he had heard about these
charges and asked if it vas wri[ten that tney reicburse the consultant
or the developes. 2�h'. :�'ewman stated they would reimborse the con-
sultant.
NOUSSNG & REDEVELOPTSEA'T AUTHORITY MEETING NLY 10 1986 PaGE 12
Mr, Qureshi stated there was a similar approach in [he other agree-
ment that when the $1,000,000 was received, the HRA would take res-
ponsibility for the engineering costs.
Mr. Rasmussen asked if there was a list on these costs. Mr. Qureshi stated
the}' siiould be reasonable and comparable to industr}• standards.
Mr. Rasmussen stated that he does not want the developer to keep comin� back
�to HRA for fur }�e ssistance ever�• t'me he h s s me pro6le
_ t�, f�feyer askeax i� p�ans were prepare� under t�e �irection oni�the
developer. I�h. Qureshi stated it was a combined effort between the
developer and the City staff.
Mr. Meyer asked if these plans were designed according to standards
and concepts agreed to by [he City staff and if the City controlled
development plans just as though the developer wasn't in the picture.
Mr. Flora answered in the affira�ative.
Ak. Newman stated what is proposed is a significant departure re-
garding the level of assistance provided to the developer. He stated
due to the scope aod quality of the development, the HR�1 can justify
why they rr�ay want to deviate from their customary practices.
P�. Newman stated increment will go to pay the General Obligation
Bond and if not enough increment is generated to pay the limited
Revenue Note that is lost forever. Mr. Newman stated if the developer
meets [he benchmark standards, then the ttRA guaran[ees he will re-
ceive a11 the payments he is guaranteed under the Limited Revenue
�ote.
Pfr. Pteyer stated he felt the development schedule was ultra-conscrvative.
He questioned if there was any way the developer could assign all the
rights gtanted to him to some other developer.
I�. New�n stated this could be done, but a11 the agree.nen[s would
remain in force.
P�. Rasc�ussen asked if the HRA would have the right to approve or
disapprove such an arrangement, Mr. Newman stated he believed they
would no[.
Dk, Yrairie asked if this occurred, if the quality of the developnent
had to be main[ained. ih-. Newman stated there is a quality develop-
ment pZan attached to the agreement aiid a developer would be required
to meet these standards.
I�'h. Newman stated the agreement was restructured, after consultation
with the bond counsei, and if the Hlta concurs with this agreement,
it could be approved subject to technical changes as he felt some
phrasing �y have to be reworded. He s[ated he wanted to further
clarify that even though the FiRA is guaranteeing thi.s payment, it
isn't going to impair the abili[y of the Hk� to proceed with other
developments.
HOUSING � REDEVELOPMENT AVfHORITY MEETING NY 10 1986 PAGE 13
I�k. Newman stated it is possi6le for the developer to meet his
cons[ruction schedule and not make enough increment to pay his
Limited Revenue Note. He stated the HRA is then obligated to
make up that deficiency, t�. Newman stated it is extremely un-
likely this would occur. He stated if the developer is meeting
his benchmarks and the increments aren't sufficient, the HRA can
buy a 1Yeasury Bill to secure its potentiai future obliga[ion.
Mayor Nee asked if something changed in Lhe agzeement to go be}•ond
an 18 year payment.
I�k. Newman stated because of the initial delay and construction
could not begin as intended, the developer believes it is costing
him considerably. Mr. Newman stated he wi11 also not be able
to proceed with the next phaseof construction until all the re-
quirements of the Indirect Source Permit have been met.
r�yor Nee stated he did not like the option for the extra seven
years. He felt to extend it one year would be acceptable, but to
extend it for seven years is ano[her issue.
Pfr. Newman stated it is extremely remo� [his would happen if develop-
ment occurs as under this agreemen[, He stated if, in fact, the
developer performs according to this standard, he believed the benefit
wi11 be such that he will receive his paymen[s under the Limi[ed
Revenue Note in the stated 18 years.
A�yor Nee stated he can accept [he extra $1,000,000 for improvemen[
of the intezsection, but i[ bothers him that they can't go forever
in tapping [he public coffers on increment, someCimes it has [o
pay back,
Ph-. Newman stated if this project is compLeted, it will be the
largest total development in the City and have the largest concen[-
ration of employees. Ne stated it is [he decision of the HRA and
City Council to make a determination if i[ is worth it and to deviate
some fron their norms.
Dfayor Tee stated when you talk about a 25 year payoff, something nore
has to revolve. He stated the revenue bond is changed and made a
guarantee by the HR.� and it wasn't this way before, and to guarantee
the entire bond is an entirely different s[ory.
Councilman Barnette stated the concensus of the Council was [o go
along with the extra year because of delays in construction, but felt
limits need te be sei,
Councilman Schneider stated the risk has shifted to the Giry and it
shouldn't be there.
Mr. Newman [hought it could be looked at in two ways. He stated
there is a greater obligation by the HRA, but the developer is
taking the risk of ineeting these cons[ruction phases schedule.
�, Weir stated when they began plans for this project, no one
knew they would be limi[ed to one building. He stated as a result
of the requirements imposed by the State through tF.e Indirect Source
' Permit, they cannot market any space on this property, other than
the one building and restaurant, until improvements are made to the
intersection. He stated this is a major difference than what was
con[empla[ed and what they wished to accomplish on this si[e.
Mr, Weir stated they would prefer not to have a schedule. He stated
they are in the business of investment buiLding and may not have
tenants when th� begin construction, as opposed to having a tenant
sign a lease and then begin construction of their building.
Mayor Nee felt if they are going to renego[iate the contract, it
should go back to the beginning. He s[ated he assumes an experienced
builder would know what is required such as the Indirect Source Permit.
He felt when they entered in[o [he agreement, the developer accepted
this kind of hazard. He stated he didn't agree it was 100% of the
Ci[y's responsibility to anticipate the reac[ion of the Highway Depar[-
ment and the Pollution Control Agency. He sta[ed staff convinced him
�o pay the cost of the interseccion improvement, but beyond tha[ he
has problems.
p�, Meyer stated he is concerned and understands the agreemenc has been
broadened far beyond che original agreement. He stated he had previ-
ously expressed his opinion that the HRA had gone about as far as
they could on the basis of s[aff recommendations. He asked if staff
felt they could go from 18 to 25 years.
�, rewman stated they aren't agreeing to it, but it is a possibility.
t�tr. Commers sta[ed the HRA is saying this is a Redevelopment District
set up for 25 years. He stated it is agreed everything would be done
in 18 years, but since it i5 a 25 year district, there is the option
to re-bond to the extent of the full district. He stated bonds were
issued for a shorter period, even though it was a 25 year district.
He stated it seems it would be bet[er to pay it off as soon as possible
to £:ee additional funds.
rfr. Newman sta[ed under the original agreement, the note itself would
have been paid off in 18 years and, if there were any arrearages, they
would have been forgiven. He stated because of the survival of arrear-
ages, there is a po[ential to fund that payment for a longer period.
p�. Qureshi stated this development will be quality construction and,
when the compleced, the value would be about $ 50,000,000. He stated
the decision to be made by the HRA is if it is wortt� tt�e risk.

t�k. Qureshi stated the help would be about 15% upfront and if the
developer performs [o the standards set by the HRA, he receives his
money or else he loses. He stated the agreement provides if the
increment received is no[ sufficien[ to a�ake any of the scheduled
payrt.ents under the Limited Revenue Note, the HRA would pay the loss
wi[h interest. Nh. Qureshi stated Ph. Weir is willing to forego the
interest, if given more time for construction of the first building.
t�. Qureshi stated the question has been asked if [he HRA is giving
too much. He sta[ed there is so much uncertainty in the market and
tax s[ruc[ure so this would be a difficult question ta answer. He
felt substan[ial heiP is being provided, but if the anticipated qualit��
developmen[ occurs it would be worth it.
Afayor Nee stated the HRA is guaranteeing the payment of the note and
this wasn't in the original agreement,
t�h, Qureshi stated it is guaran[eed only if the developer performs
as ou[lined in the agreemen[.
hlsyor Nee sta[ed the present agreement states if he performs, the
HRa wi11 pay off the note.
N7, Qureshi stated what was in the previous agreement was the developer
loses the no[e, if he doesn'[ perform.
Councilman Schneider asked why inerement wouldn't be generated if
the developer performs to [he standards ou[lined in [he agreement.
hh. Commers stated there may not be enough taxes generated to obtain
[he increment.
Ph-, Qureshi s[ated the question is if the develocer performs, should
he get Che revenue note paid. He sta[ed thece are certain henchmarks
for this development khich must be met and if this is done, only then
does he receive tne additional HRA help.
r1r. Weir stated no one believed the Indirect Source Permi[ would have
restrictions over the rate of their deveLopment. He thought tliey would
be able to construct three or four buildings at a time in order to
mak.e the increment available. He stated the PCA is now requiring a
complete installation of the improvements as opposed to simply an
endorsement that improvements will be completed. I�fr . Weir sta[ed if
construction cannot proceed, it may preclude delivery of the incre-
ment,
2�h. Cor�mers stated there are a lot of technicalities they could get
in[o, 6ut feit it comes do�:n in the issue if t4te tiRo'. warets the project
and, if [he developer performs, should [ne HR1 guarantce he gets his
monay. He stated if he doesn't perform, he. would 1osz. Mr. Commers
stated there is no quesxion, if the develoaer performs, the HRa wi11

fiave su6stantial tax increment to meet all their obligations. He
stated it is the question of how they capture it and how they uae it.
t� . Qureshi suggested two changes be made in the Addendum to the Contract
with Lake Pointe Investment Company dated .Tuly 9, 1986. He stated
one change would be to extend the date of comple[ion for the first
120,000 square feet from December, 1987 to June, 1988. He stated
" the other change is to etiminate the interes[ payments on the Limited
Revenue Note which is covered under It� 11 of the agreement.
Nh. Commers stated there are some other technical i[ems tha[ need to
be reviewed for possible change.
Mr, Rasmussen asked if more [ime was needed to refine the agreement.
Mr. Qureshi stated if the HRA felt the generel structure of the agree-
ment was reasonable, it should be approved because time is of the
greates[ essence as several months of the construction season have
already been lost.
Mr. Qureshi stated if the agreement is approved, he would request a
special Council meeting on Ju1y 14 to consider the bids.
Nh. Newrt�n stated he understands r�. Prairie has indicated he would
abs[ain from any vote on this agreement as his construc[ion company
is one of the bidders on [his project.
