hh. Robinson stated the petitioner, rh. Mark Anderson, President of
the Church on the Tiove, is requesting to couduct church services in
Che �)'mnasium andthe requesC doesn't include any new building con-
struction. He stated tiiere are 600 members in the congregation and
thcy would hold two services on Sunday with about 30b attending the
morning service and about 150 attending tne evening service. He
stated a neighborhood meeting was held several weeks ago with approxi-
mately 35 persons attending to exchange ideas and hear any concerns
from thc residents.
Pff. Robinson stated if the special use permit is approved, staff is
recommending the following stipulations: (1) Al1 existing hardsurface

Mr. Robinson stated that �tr. Anderson had worked oUt an arrane,ement with
Totinn-Grace to use their parking lot on Sundays. This agreement could be
terminated b}- either part�°. ?tr. Robinson stated he felt it would Ue to
evervone's benefit io trg and extend the lengCh of Che parkin� a�reement
with Totino-Grace to at least one vear. He stated it should be noted that
this document should be completed prior to written approval by the City of the
Special Use Permit. He stated he believed Mr. Anderson is aware of the
stipulations and is in agreement. �
?ir. Anderson, President ot Church on tl-�e Move Inteznational, stated, in
August, he met caith the Chairman of the Aoard for Faith Academe and
discussed taking over the school which was having financial difficulties.
He stated theti� came to terms Co take over the school with tne idea of holdin�;
their church services in the gymnasium, He stated he wasn't aware a special
use permit was required as this is not necessary in Minnetonka and
Bloomington.
PLANNING COTAff SSION MEETING OCTOBER 8. 1986 PAGE 3
Mr. Anderson stated he has spoken with Dr. Ray at Totino-Grace in
regard to the parking and they have agreed Totino-Grace's parking
lot can be used. He stated a contract has been drawn which indicates
Church o❑ the Move can use Totino-GYace's pa:king 1ot for their Sun-
day services. He stated if a conflict arises, they would need to
make other provisions.
Pff. Anderson stated they were going to assume the $580,000 contract
for deed on the building, but the company-through which they are
seeking bonds has to have the first mortgage on the property.
Mr. Anderson stated they met with neighboring residents and a 1ot of
questions were raised about maintenance on the property. He stated
he assured them the property would be maintained as they have a
reg�lar m3intenance person and have purchased lawn and snow removal
equipment. He stated they also plan to replace part of the play-
ground equipment. He stated the consensus of the meeting was that
the residents would like to be kept informed of their plans. Re
stated the Long-range plan for the property is to seek to build a
sanctuary, but right now it is not known when this could be donc.
p�. Anderson stated he shared some of their future plans and really
was under no o6liga[ion to do so. Ae sCated some of the residents'
concerns was they didn't want to see access through the side streets
or disturb the natural area of the pond. He stated they also share
these same conceros.
Ah�. Anderson stated he found ou[ yesterday that a large group of
people had signed a petition as it relates to Cheir future plans.
He stated, at this point, any future plans are speculative, but
found out there were a11 kinds of s[range ideas and stories being
circulated.
Pfr. Kondrick asked Mr. �nderson if he had any problem with the stipu-
lations recommended by staff. I�h. Anderson stated he didn't quite
undcrstand combining individual lots into one tax parcel.
Ptr. Billings stated the purpose is to identify the property as one
tax parcel rather than several parcels. I�k. Anderson stated he
would then have no problem with this stipulation or any of the otliers.
He stated [hey didn't install parking on the site as the neighbors
iodicated they didn't want it.
M�-. Billings stated the agreement for parking with Totino-Grace
covered their parking on Sundays, but asked if they conducted mid-
. week services. hfr. Anderson stated they have services on Wednesday,
but plan to change this to an individual. Bible study. He stated
they would not have a large crowd on Wednesdays.
Aff. Billings asked the current capacity of the parking lot on this
site. Mr. Robinson stated it is about 25 spaces, but isn't striped.
PL1n'NING COAPfISSION PfEETING OCTOBER 8 1986 P�GG 4
hfr. Robinson stated no plan was submitted for an expansion or new
construction and wanted to make it clear to the petitioner and
residents that this special use permit does not cover a new church
facility, but simply to use the present gymnasium for church services.
Mr. Saba asked Mr, Anderson [he pLans for long-term permanent parking.
rtr. Anderson stated they took over this facility five weeks ago so
really haven't taken the time to examine it. He stated whatever is
required they would meet the qualifications.
Mr. Robinson stated another stipulation proba6ly should be added that
programmed activities wouldn't exceed the parking supply available
ei[her on-site or at Totino-Grace High School.
Mr. Robinson stated a petition was received in opposition to this
special use permit as we11 as a letter in favor of the special use
permit.
I�k. Galen Carlson, 601 Rice Creek Terrace, a member of Church on the
Move, sCated he knows everyone wants a good community in which to
live and felt the influence of a church upgrades the community. He
stated the request is to hold their services in the gymnasium and
knows neighbors rr�y have fears about parking and congestion. He
stated he was in the area when a foo[ba11 game was being held at
Totino-Grace and felt they wocLd cause a 1ot less disruption. He
asked for the Commission to give a favorable decision on the reques[
for the special use permit.
Dh�. Flolid, 6053 Woody Lane, stated at the neighborhood meeting, he
feLt the church was receptive to the residents' concerns and stated
he was in favor of the special use permit.
P'h. Hameroik, 1340 Hillcrest Drive, stated he was in favor of the
special use permit.
Aff. Roith, 1314 Hillcrest Drive, asked wha[ wouLd happen if Totino-
Grace decides not to let the church use their property for parking.
Tfr'. Billings stated if at any time, they lose their parking privileges
at Totino-Grace, it would be necessary for Church on the hlove to
come again before [he Commission to provide additional parking or
Lose the special use permit.
hff. P.o:th stated in talking to the School Board, there was some con-
demnatiov of land in order that Gardena School could be built. He
stated as Iong as the School District had any interest in the property,
the playground was to be maintained for use by the residents. He
sta[ed if the church does not assume the contract for deed, this
agreement would terminate.
rfr. Robinson stated the lease ran in favor of the City and if that
isn't the case, a new easement can be recorded.
PL1b'NING COMAIISSION PfEETING OCTOBER 8 1986 PAG6 5
pf[. Anderson stated the lease ties into the contract for deed and
stipulates there would be some equipment maintained for the benefit
of the community. He stated it seems strange that this becomes an
issue when there was an agreement in the past and nothing was done.
He stated they would rebuild the playground equipment, and had no
objection to continuing such a stipulation.
Ms, Ardella Foco, 1345 Gardena Avenue, asked why the residents were
no[ notified that Faith Academy was i❑ financial trouble. She stated
Mr. Anderson stated they had plans to build in the spring at a cost
of about $700,000. She stated this would be in her back yard and the
area is now crowded. Ms. Foco stated whPn they bought, this was
suppose to be a residential area and has been anything but residential.
Ptr. Billings stated he canno[ answer the question why Faith Academy
didn't inform the residents of [heir financial difficulties, but
felt they were under no obligation to do so. He stated the request
before the Commission this evening involves using the school gym-
nasium for church services and does not involve any new construction.
t�k. Bittman, 1120 Gardena Avenue, asked if the special use permit is
approved and the church decides [o build, if Chey would have to come
back to the Coirnnission.
Mr. Billings stated if there are any plsns submitted for construction,
another public hearing would be held and input received at that time
by anyone who has concerns.
Pk. Bittman stated he cannot see anyone purchasing this property £or
$800,000 without any guarantee they can expand in thc future. He
stated they have enough traffic and didn't wan[ any more congestion
in the area.
PLS. Roith, 1314 Hillcrest Drive, stated she knows this wi11 not end
with the congregation holding [heir services in the gymnasium. Siie
stated future plans is what they wish to stop a; they don't want a
church in theiX back yard.
h1r. Anderson sta[ed their immediate concern is to have a double use
of the proper[r in order to sustain the school. He stated when the
time arises, if they cannot build a church on this property, they
would be in a better financial situation to purchase property elsewhere.
He s[ated it is their desire, at some point in the future, to build
a church, but the�� have no plans at this time.
Ms. Roith asked if the entrance into the parking Iot was wide enough
to accommodate both incoming and outgoing traffic. Mr. Robinson
s[ated he believed [hey have the required 25 feet.
A parent of one of the students stated he drives there every morning
and doesn't have any problem when he passes another car.
PLANT;ING COPAIISSION MEETING OCTOBER 8 1986 P�GE 6
Mr, Kaspszak, 1317 Hillcrest Drive, stated the pond behind the
school is governed by the Department of Natural Resources and
they may be concerned with this matter, He stated he believed
an Environmental Impact Study should be made, as well as a traffic
study on Gardena Avenue.
Mr. Tiller, 1535 Gardena Avenue, stated it was the residents in thc
area who made it possihle for Gardena School to be at this location.
He stated the land should be kept open and a11 one p1ot,
T1r. Ttinear, 1291 Gardena Avenue, stated he was opposed to [his special
use permit. He stated if there is a viable church program, events
will be going on during which are normal quiet times for the neigh-
borhood. He stated they tolerate the school as most of their traffic
is during the week days. He stated he could not visualize a church
with a seating capacity of 800 people and a parking lot the size of
Totino-Grace's on this proper[v. He stated the residents s[rongly
object [o access onto neighboring residential streets so all the
traffic would use Gardena Avenue.
Ms. Palmer, 1329 Gardena Avenue, stated Mr. Anderson stated at one
mee[ing it would be some time in the future they may build a church.
She stated a few weeks later, he stated they plan groundbreaking in
the spring of 198i. She stated she believed parking would be a
problem and if thete would be any guarantee people would not park
in front of their homes.
Mr. French, 1469 Gardena Avenue, stated the last thing thcy need is
parking o❑ both sides of Gardena Avenue. ke sGated Gardena Avenuc
is already a"race track" and they don't need any additional traffic.
Tfr. Solomon, 1211 Gardena Avenue, stated he questioned how Mr. Anderson
can say they have no plans to build a cburch, He felt they do havc
future plans which will affect a11 the residents.
I°7. Shorma, 5916 Oakwood Manor, stated he was neither speaking for
or against this special use permit, but stated St. William's Church
did conduct church services at Totino-Grace several years ago and
didn�t know if t',:is affected the traffic patterns.
P1r. Manning, 1315 Hillcrest Drive, asked if there has been any survey
or study on the traffic that would result from the church services.
Mr. Robinson stated a study has not been conducted.
Mr. Anderson stated it has been suggested to the City Engineer that
crosswalks be installed and possiblg� putting in some stop signs.
He stated he believed the issue had to be addressed.
I� . Manning stated he was concerned if the special use permit were
gzanted, Lhe fact would be established that the church can function
on this property wtrich leads to the possi6ility of expansion. He
stated he understands a considerabLe amount of money was spent on
PI�1h�ING COr�ffSSION T¢ETING OCTOBER 8 1986 PAGE 7
blueprints for a church in another area which the church hopey
could be adapted to this site.
I�fr. Johnson, 1495 Gardena Avenue, stated he was not opposed to
this special use permit, but would be opposed to any new con-
struction. He stated they have enough traffic problems and wouldn't
wan[ a new church.
Mr. Betzold asked Mr, Robinson what may be the use of the property,
if the special use permit were not approved. Tfr. Robinson stated
the special use permit is required because of the church services
only, and the property could be used for a school.
Nh. Klucsar, 1337 Hillcrest Drive, stated he felt, in the future,
there wovld be a need for more schools and the School District
should buy it back from Faith Academy. He stated he is not against
churches, but wondered why they should provide streets and facilities
for persons who probably don't even live in Fridley.
Ms. Foco asked if there is any possi6ility of the propertv returning
to a residential use.
Pfr . Billings stated if someone other than Church on [he rlove were to
buy the property, it may be possible [o develop as residential. He
stated at this point, it appears Faith Academy has a willing buyer
and felt the odds of that happening were very slim.
Pfs. Arlys Senewein, 1342 Hillcrest Drive, stated she can sympathize
with Ptr. Anderson, but if they do build a church, more than one
access would be needed for the parking Lot, She stated she wouldn't
want to see the existing walkway turned into a thoroughfare.
�fr. McLaughlin, 1050 Gardena �lvenue, asked how many parking spaces
would be required if a church was constructed. *1r. Robinson stated
the method used is one parking sta11 required for every [hree or
four seats. Mr. McLaughlin stated another piece of property is being
used in order to meet the parking requirements and objec[ed Co this
procedure.
Mr. French stated if additional parking had to be provided on Church
on the Pfove's site, there would be additional runoff and wondered
how it would affect the storm sewer. He stated he could see some
potential problems ariss.ng as a result of any expansion of this
facility.
Mr. Morris, 1341 Hillcrest Drive, stated if the special use permit is
granted and the property properly maintained, it wouLd be difficult
for Che Cas�mission in the future to deny the church the right to park
on their owvt land. He felt the problems now would be a Lot worse
if things develop further.
PIANhING CO�L�ffSSION PtEETING OCTOBER 8 1986 PAGE 8
I°h�. Tom Jenewein, 1342 Hillcrest Drive, stated his main concern is
bringir� additional people into the area. He stated Fridley has a
lot of fine churches and knew very few people belonging to [his
denomina[ion and asked where these persons reside.
Nh. Anderson stated they have a number of peopLe in the Fridley area
that belong to their congregation. He atated Fridley is the best
central Location for them. He stated they had a full set of plans
done for a si.te in Brooklyn Center and, if they proceed [o build,
it is hoped these plans wi11 adapt.
Ah. PicLaughLin stated even on the best of days, the intersection at
Gardena and OLd Central is very difficult. Re stated he would ask the
Commission to consider the public's safety as placing additional traffic
on the street would add to the problem.
Mr. Robinson stated based on the neighborhood input, staff could re-
quest the Engineering Department to issue a study on the traffic.
D1s. Sherek sta[ed she realizes 01d Central is a State road, but felt
possibly a signal is needed at Gardena Avenue and Old Ceotral.
hh-. Kaspszak felt the City should request an Environmental Impact
Study. hfr . Robinson stated at this time, there is no new construction
planned.
Pfr, Kaspszak sta[ed if he was Ttr, Anderson he. would want to know his
limitations for the site as his plans may be mute.
Ptr. Manning asked if [he special use permit were granted if this re-
stricts them to using only the gymnasiun for their church services.
Ph. Robinson s[ated they would be restricted to the gymnasium for
church services.
P]r. Kevin Dooley stated he belongs to the church and lives in Blaine.
He stated about 20 of [he parishioners live in Fridley, He stated
the churclz cares about families and children and invited persons to
attend.
P1r. Anderson stated whether or not this special use permit is granted
greaCly impacts the success of the school as they need the use of
the gymnasium for church services in order to succeed.

FROM DR, AND MRS. ZWICKY IN SUPPORT OF THIS SPECIAL USE PERMIT.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AIE, CHAIRPERSON BILLINGS DECLARED THE
MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
Pfr. Betzold stated he felt the residents' concerns center around the
possibility of a new church which really isn't the issue before the
Commission this evening. He stated if plans to construct a church
were being s�bmitted this evening, he didn't believe the Commission
would be very receptive.
Ph. Betzold sGated the issue is whether the 6uilding can be used
for church services, in addition to being used as a school. He
stated he is aware of traffic problems in the area, but didn't feel
that woUld be resolved by denying the special use permit as someone
else could use the building for school purposes. He felt this
proposal is no better or worse than what the building has been used
for in the past.
Pis. Sherek s[a[ed she didn't feel it was appropriate to look at
approval or denial on the basis of what might happen in thc future.
She stated the :equest before the Commission is to use the gymnasium
for church services, and felt it was an aPPropriate use of the building.
P1s. Sherek stated additional traffic would not be added during the
week from this use, but shared [he residents' concern if people. would
park on Gardena or use the parking 1ot. She fe1t, however, if the
street was posted with "no parking" signs, it would also affect thc
residents.
Pfr . Saba asked what authoritY the City would have to post "no parking"
signs on Gardena Avenue. P�. Robinson stated there are "no parking"
signs on the north side and if the south side were to be posted, the
City would consider the residents' feelings and also if Totino-Grace
High School would be in favor.
b1r. Kondrick stated the church could request their parishioners to park
in the � rking Lot. He felt the traffic is a problem, but the Com-
mission cannot address issues that may happen in the future. He
stated he cannot see any reason to deny the special use permit.
Mr, Saba stated he spoke with some of the residents and know they have
reaY concerns. Re stated it seems Church on t}�.e Move wishes to prove
they can be good neighbors and are taking care of some of the mainten-
ance problems. He stated he can see some positive things happening
if this is used as a school and maintained properly and limited to
use as a gvmnasium-type church.
Mr. Saba stated he has some concern aboett the property being otte
parcel and asked if the church were to sell part of the property,
if they would have to come before the Commission for a 1ot split,
Pff . Robinson stated if the property is platted, a public hearing
would be necessary.

regarding parking for programmed activities and providing the
recreational easement.
rfr . Billings stated City ordinances provide churches are allowed in
an R-1 zone, with a special use permi[, and in order to deny this

safety, health or welfare of the residents, or result in a decrease
in property values.

PLANNING CO;AtISSION MEETING OCTOBER 8 1986 PAGE 13
Item 6: DSr. Schuur stated he did not agree with this stipula[ion.
He stated the south end of the building is blacktopped
to the gate. Pfr. Schuur stated if he hauls in a car that

from the City streets.

if a solid gate is installed, it would be very difficult
to close.
Item 8: Mr. Schuur stated he was in agreement with this stipulation.
Item 9: rfr. Schuur stated he was in agreement with this stipulation.
Item 10: Mr. Schuur stated if he installs the eight foot fence, the
trailer would not be seen.
Item 11: Mr. Billings asked Ph. Christensen how many persons are now
using this property.

?h. Schuur uses the storage yard,

the auto repair only and no sales or leasing would be
allowed.

Item 13: Pfr. Schuur stated he has no problem with this stipulation.

Item 17: Mr. Christensen stated a permit would be obtained for the

PL�INNING COr�ffSSION P�ETIhG OCTOBER 8 1986 P�CL 14
Item 20: Tfr. Schuur stated he has a problem if no more than 15
cars are allowed in the storage yard at one time. He
stated the 1ot would hold 30 cars and there would be
days during the winter it wouLd be full, but may be
empty several days Later. He stated he needs this
storage yard to use as an overflow Lot.
Mr. Robinson stated in analyzing the storage yard, there
are double rows on cars on the east and west and if you
have four rows with an open center aisle, he felt the
maximum would be 24 cars. He stated 15 cars would a11ow
for maneuverability within the storage yard, More than 15
cars would necessitate on-street car stora�e while moving
vehicles in and out.
Ms. Sherek asked if the person uho brings cars to this location for cleaning
sub-leases space from Christenson.
rh. Christensen stated he has ;emoved so�c of the cars, but felt it
was a workable situation if he reduces the nunber of cars brought
to this location.
hh. Kondrick stated he would like to find a way the petitioner can
do business, and to have the area looking nice. He felt any improve-
ments to the property would increase its value.
MOTION BY MR. KOn'DRICK, SECONDED BY MS. SHEREK, TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC
HEARING.
llPON �1 VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING aYE, CHAIRPERSON BILLINGS DECLARED THL
HEARING CLOSED AT 10:10 p.m.
P1r. Kondrick felt all the stipuLations recommended by staff have
merit, as the property needs improvement. He stated if the special
use permit is granted, it should be reviewed after the soil testing
is completed.
I�h. Betzold stated 20 stipulations are an awful lot and it seems Mr.
Schuur is not in agreement with some of them. He stated he understands
Pfr. Schuur's concern, but cannot see a joint use of this site as
there just isn't enough space available. He stated he wouLd not be
in favor of the special use permit for this site.
Ph. BilLings stated he would agree the list of stipulations is Lengthy
and wouLd like to see a11 the improvements, however, sor�etimes progress
has to be made more slowly. He stated he would tend to support A1r.
Schuur's comments regarding the concrete curb and gutter and the
sprinkLing system. Mr. Billings feLt even without these two stipu-
lations, it wouLd be a tremendous improvement over what now exists.
Mr. Kondrick stated he didn't feel three persons can operate on this
site. He stated he would support the special use permit, if all the
stipulations were complied with.
PLANNING COMDIISSION MEET II�G OCTOBER 8 1986 PAGE 15
Mr. Saba stated he is concerned about the overflow of cars on
this lot during the winter season,
hk. Kondrick asked hff. Schuur if he is willing to comply with a11
the stipulations. I�k. Schuur stated if the special use permit is
granted, the area wi11 be cleaned up, however, if the permit is
denied, he would have no other choice but to move back to this site.
Mr. Schuur stated if he moves back to this Location, there would be
30 cars in the storage yard, as it has been for years. He stated
from the time he occupied this building in 1960, he never had a
problem with the neighbors about moving cars in and out.
Pfr . Schuur stated if he cannot lease outthis property, it leaves
him no choice but to move back as he can't keep the two locations.
T�. Kondrick stated he didn't think Ph. Schuur shouldn't be able to
rent his property, but fel[ the stipulations, in his mind, are not
unreasonable. He felt the benefits to Mr. Schuur is the property
would be more saleable, if and when this happens. He felt this
property could be made to look at[ractive like others in the area
and cited Christensen Auto Body at East River Road and Mississippi
Street.
T�. Be[zold asked Pfr . Schuur how long after a snow emergency before
people claim their cars. Dh. Schuur stated usually within three
or four days. He stated he can store 100 cars on his new lot, but
still needs this for overflow.
rfr . Billings stated he could live with increasing the amount of cars
allowed in the storage yard from 15 to 20, especiaLly during snow
emergencies.

PPLICANT'S INTF,RES'I' IN THE SITE AND PROPOSF,D DEVELOPMENT
University Avenue Associates has contracted to purchase the Site which
is proposed for the Development. Consistent with its past practice,
University Avenue Associates intends to maintain long-term ownership
(15 to 25 years) of the Site and the Development.
EXISTING CHARACTERISTICS OF 'LHE SITE
The Site on which the Development is proposed to be located consists
of approximately 21 acres generally located south of 85th Avenue
Northeast, west of university avenue, north of 83rd Avenue Northeast,
and east of the Springbrook Nature Center. A boundary, location and
topographic survey submitted with the Application indicates existing
topographic features of the Site and identifies existing mature trees
on the Site and the adjacent park property.
Soil and groundwater investigations conducted at the Site indicate
that the ground surface generally slopes to the west, toward the
Mississippi River. The general soil proEile encountered in test
borings is surficial soils over basal soils. The surficial soils
include uncontrolled fill, topsoil, and swamp deposits; the basal
soils include course alluvium, fine alluvium, and glacial ti11. The
surficial soils, which are soft and subject to decomposition,
consolidation, and settlement, will be removed from building, parking,
and roadway areas.
The groundwater level is consistently high throughout the Site and
surrounding areas, due to a perched water table condition. The
groundwater is entrapped within the upper sandy soils and is retarded

from further downward percolation by an impervious clay layer. The
groundwater elevations indicate a generally east to west, and
northeast to southwest flow of groundwater. These perched groundwater
levels tend to fluctuate seasonally and annually. During
construction, temporary dewatering by well points or deep wells will
likely be required. Floor elevations of the apartment homes have been
set at sufficient height above tha groundwater table to allow for
seasonal water tabl�� fluctuatio�s. Other soil correction measures
required to prepare the Site for the proposed Development will be
determined after evaluation of additional soil and groundwater
investigations.
EXISTING AND PROPOSED LAND USES IN THE VICINITY OF THE SITE
The Site is a gateway to the City from the North. Attractive
redevelopment of the Site, therefore, has the potential to set the
tone for residential and commercial redevelopment throughout the
entire northwest quadrant of the City. As described throughout this
letter-memorandum, Soringbrook Nature Center adjoins the Site on the
west. Undeveloped land, zoned industrial, owned by the YMCA adjoins
the Site on the north. Additional undeveloped property, zoned
commercial and industrial, lies to the east. South of 83rd Avenue
�ortheast are existing commercial and industrial facilities, as well
as Vantage Companies' Wholesale Club project, which is currently under
construction.
The Site is located in proximity to major shopping facilities,
including the Northtown Shopping Center, and employment. It has good
visibility from University Avenue, an arterial road which traverses
the City in a north-south direction.
RELATIONSHIP 20 FRIDLEY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
The 1990 Fridley Land Use Plan designates the Site a redevelopment
district. Tiie housing plan element of the Fridley Comprehensive Plan
(the Comprehensive Plan) indicates that construction of additional
housing units, including new multifamily housing, will be needed to
meet the needs of City residents by 1990. The Comprehensive Plan also
encourages the use of land write-downs and tax increment financing,
where it is in the �ub2ic interest, to promote new construction of
multifamily housing (Comprehensive Plan, pages 3-5). City housing
policy also encourages petitions for residential rezoning of
industrial and commercial properties adjacent to park land and other
residential neighborhoods as a means of facilitating development of
alternative housing types in the community.

EXIS'I'ING AND °ROPOSED ZONING OF 'I'HE SI'I'E,
AND HIS'I'ORY OF PREVIOUS PROPOSAL FOR
MULTIF.4;hILY HOUSING ON THE SI'I'E
The Site is currently zoned M-2 Heavy Industrial District. Univarsity
Avenue Associates is proposing to rezone the entire Site to R-3
General t9ultiple Dwelling District to allow construction of the
proposed Development.
As described above, the 1990 Fridley Land Use Plan proposes the Site
for redevelopment and the housing plan element of the Comprehensive
Plan indicates that additional multiEamily housing is needed in the
City. To implement the housing policies of the Comprehensive Plan and
to be consistent with the companion rezoning aoplication, an amendment
of the Comprehensiv2 Plan is also requested to specifically provide
for redevelopment of the Site for multifamily housing. The proposed
use of the Site is generally consistent with a previous proposal for a
360 unit multifamily housing project on the Site which received City
Council approval of first reading of an R-3 rezoning application in
December 1981.
The applicant nas also requested approval of
required by City ordinances. The entire Site
on the preliminary plat.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSED
a preliminary plat as
is proposed as one lot
LOPMENT
1. Proposed Uses for the Development on the Site
As shown on the site plan submitted as part of the Application,
the Development consists of 358 high-quality, high-amenity
apartment homes. All of the apartment homes will be three
stories. The three-story buildings will be constructed
predominantly of high-quality, earth-tone brick exterior
materials. Asphalt shingles and prefinished metal bands to match
the windows will be utilized as accent design features. Visual
interest will be enhanced by protruding canopies over each balcony
deck. Garage and surface parking will be �rovided. Continuing
maintenance of the aQartment homes and landscaping will be assured
by an on-site resident manager.
The apartmant homes ara dasigned for families, as well as yo�nger
employees. A unit mix of approximately 67 percent two-bedroom
units, 17 percent one-bedroom and one-bedroom/handicapped units,
and 15 percent three-bedroom units is currently proposed. Laundry
rooms will be Qrovided on each floor and the residents wi11 enjoy
the use of a party room and a community room. Individual units
will be equipped with walk-in closets, special kitchen and bath
features, and sky lights in dining areas. Each apartment home

will have an indented entry and corridors will be decorated with
special paint treatment. Other distinctive interior amenities
include F,uropean style cabinats, Casablanca type dining room fans,
and balconies. Fifty percent of the units will be equipped with
dishwashers and microwave ovens. A11 three-bedroom apartment
homes and most two-bedroom homes will have a bath and 3j4 baths;
the balance of the t�do-bedroom units will have a bath and a half.
Air conditioning will be provided throughout the Development by
wall units. Energy-conser•✓ing features have also been
incorporated in exterior wall construction.
2. Effect of the Proposed Development on the Visual Environment,
Includinq Provision of a Suitable Buffer Between the Site and the
Adjacent Springbrook Nature Center on the West and Future
Commercial Davelooment on the F,ast
The visual environment has been carefully considered in
formulation of development plans for the apartment homes on the
Site. Outside storage will be prohibited. Higher ceilings are
being incorporated in the design of certain parking garages to
allow for exterior storage of motor homes and other recreational
vehicles, thereby assuring a more pleasing visual image throughout
the Site.
Provision of a suitable buffer between the proposed Development
and the adjacent Springbrook Nature Center was a primary objective
of site planning. [+leetings with City and Nature Center stafE
indicated that Springbrook Nature Center Foundation members were
interested in screening the apartment homes and garages from the
view of trail users to the maximum extent feasible. Noise
attenuation and control of ingress and egress into the park were
also key concerns. To address these concerns, existing major
trees on the westerly perimeter of the Site and on the easterly
edge of the park were surveyed and mapped. On September 22, a
site visit was conducted to identify areas of the park to be
evaluated €or. possible berming. S�bsequent to the site visit, the
surveyor and the P3ature Center Executive Director located areas of
trees to be preserved on park property and identified areas in
which a new berm could encroach on park property without
significantly afEecting existing major trees.
Based on that information, the consulting surveyor, engin2er, and
landscape architect prepared a concept buffer protection plan
which was reviewed with the S�rinqbrook Nature Center Foundation
at its re�uiar Septem6er 30 meeting. Five layers of buffer
protection arz proposed to achieve optimum screening. The first
layer of buffer of protection is the existing mature vegetation on
the easterly park perimeter which will not be affected by the
proposed Development. The second layer of buffer protection is an

undulating berm of varying height constructed partially on the
Site and partially on the park property. The height of. the berm,
in relation to the base of the garages, varies from 10 to 12 feet.
The third layer of buffer protection consists of 6 to S foot
shrubs oE indigenous park species, such as dogwood, buckthorn,
sumac, and chokecherry. The fourth layer of buffer protection
consists of 20 to 25 foot high natural overstory trees, such as
ash, poplar, oak, and linden, which will blend into the existing
park forest. In open areas, evergreen trees will be planted on
the Site, varying in height from 6 to 10 feet, to provide
year-round greenery for optimum screening. Cross-sections
submitted as part of the Application demonstrate that during the
summer months, the proposed berm and new plantings will screen the
garages and apartment homes from the view of trail users. During
the winter months, �ortions of buildings on the Site will be
glimpsed through the vegetation.
To control ingress and egress into the park, a Eence will be
installed on the Site in the manner depicted on the submitted
landscape plan. Special gates may be utilized to further control
pedestrian movement between the two properties.
Overstory trees are proposed along the easterly perimeter of the
Site to provide an attractive visual amenity for residants of the
apartment homes and to provide some screening of views from the
Site into the future commercial development to the east.
3. Vehicular Access, Circulation, and Parkin
Citv Trans�ortation Planninq for the Area
and Relationship to
The proposed Development on the Site will have access via 83rd
Avenue Northeast to University Avenue. No access is available to
the east. Although there is no frontage road available on the
west side of University Avenue extending from 83rd Avenue
Northeast to 85th Avenue Northeast, a frontage road will be
constructed with the Vantage development on the west side of
University Avenue extending from 81st Avenue Northeast to 83rd
Avenue Northeast. Currently, the University Avenue/83rd Avenue
Northeast intersection is restricted to "right-in, right-out"
operation at t!�e west approach because northbound University
Avenue left turns and eastbound 33r3 Avenue Northeast left turns
are prohibited.
Traffic studies for the Development conducted by Barton-Aschman 5
Associates, Inc., which will be included in the environmental
assessment worksheet (EAW) under preparation for the Development,
indicate that approximately 50 percent of the approach traffic
will come from the north and 50 percent from the south. One
hundred percent of the exiting traffic will be oriented to the

south on University Avenue. From the south on University Avenue,
the primary means oE gaininy access to the Site will be by turning
left at 81st Avenue Northeast and utilizing the �vesterly Prontage
road adjacent to University Avenue which extends northward to 83rd
Avenue �ortheast. An altarnative route is to proceed northward on
University :�venue to 85th Avenue Northeast, conduct a turnaround
and then proceed south on University Avenue to 83rd Avenue
Northeast. SuEficient veliicular capacity exists at both
University Avenue Northeast and 83rd Avenue Northeast to
accommodate the traffic generated by the Development. The current
level of service at the University Avenue/83rd Avenue Northeast
intersection is Level of Service A, the highest level of traffic
operation. The proposed D°velopment on the Site will not afEect
this level of service. Althougn the northbound approach traEfic
to the Ik=_velopment will have some effect on the University
Avenue/85th Avenue Northeast intersection, it is not expected to
reduce the current acceptable level of service at this
intersection.
Although the traffic studies conducted by Barton-Aschman indicate
that vehicular trips generated by the Development can be
adequately accommodated at the intersection of University Avenue
and 83rd Avenue Northeast, the site �lan and preliminary plat
submitted as part of the Application provide for dedication of 60
feet of future right-of-way along the northerly �erimeter of the
Site to allow for possible fut�re construction of a portion of a
north-south roadway connection between 83rd Avenue Northeast and
85tfi Avenue Northeast. The exact location of this roadway
connection will be determined at tha time of development of
surrounding properties. The Develo�ment plans also accommodate
street and sidewalk easements along the southerly perimeter of the
Site which have already been granted to the City.
As described throughout this letter-memorandum, parking is
provided in garages and surface �arking lots. Seven hundred
fifty-three (753) parking spaces are provided consistent with
ordinance requirements. Five hundred six (506) spaces are located
in surface parking areas and 247 spaces are located in parking
garages, which will be constructed of the same exterior materials
as the apartment homes.
4. Provision oE Active and Passive Private Recreationa
Open Space, and Distinctive Landscaping
Facilities,
A variety of active and passive private recceational facilities
and open space has been incorporated in the proposed Development.
Distinctive exterior amenities proposed include walking and
jogging paths, outdoor swimming pool with cabana, volleyball,
tennis, and basketball courts, horseshoe pit and putting green,

park-like courtyards, including picnic and barbecue areas, wooden
playground structures, and skating pond. Additional indoor
recreational `acilities wi11 be �rovided in the recreational
building located in the southern quadrant of the Site, including
sauna, whirl000l, indoor swimming pool, and exercise facilities.
As shown on the grading and landscaoe plans submitted as part of
the Application, finished qrades will provide varying topoqraphy
thro�ghout the Site. Landscape rock retaining walls and extensive
mature landscaping will also be �rovided.
5. Provision of Dual Purpose Retention and Amanity Ponds and Erosion
Control
The proposed Development provid�s drainage and erosion control
measures consistent with City and Six Cities Watershed District
standards and res�onsiv� to the concerns of the Springbrook Nature
Center. A portion of the surface water runoff from the Site is
directed to an existing 27 inch storm sewer stub at the southwest
corner of the Site; the remainder of the runoff wi11 drain
overland to two dual purpose retention and amenity ponds to be
constructed on the Site. Consistent with City and Six Cities
Watershed District standards, the post-development rate of runofF
will be equal to or less than the pre-develo�ment rate of runoff.
Existing water flows from the Site westerly to Springbrook Nature
Center will not be affected by the proposed Development.
Therefore, there is no change anticipated in the character of
existing wetland vegetation on the adjacent park property.
6. Utilities
As shown on the utility plan submitted as part of the Ap�lication,
an 8-inch water line will be looped through the Site for ultimate
connection back into 83rd Avenue Northeast. Existing facilities
have adequate capacity to serve the proposed Development.
Consistent with City planni�g for future development of the
surrounding commercial area, a 20-inch utility easement is shown
on the submitted preliminary plat. Sanitary sewer will also be
loo�ed through the Site for ultimate connection back into 83rd
Avenue Northeast. Existing sewer facilities have adequate
capacity to accommodate waste-water flows from the proposed
Development.
7. Liahtina and Sionaqe
As shown on plans submitted as part of the Application, each of
the nine buildings will have wall-mounted lights over the

canopies. Buildings 1, 2, 6, 7, 8, and 9 will have additional
lighting in the center of the building and at each corner facinq
the central courtyard. In order to assure that no lighting spills
over into adjacent park property, Buildings 3, �, and 5 which face
the park, will only be equiF�ped with lights over the canopy. The
garages that face these apartment homes will have lighting that
shines toward Buildings 3, 4, and 5, rathAr than toward the park.
One light pole equip�ed with a shoebox fixture to shield the light
and direct it downward is �roposed near the path between
Buildings 4 and 5. Additional lighting may also be provided
around the recreation 6uilding and cabana.
As shown on the site plan submitted as part oE the Application, a
three to five foot high ground-mounted project identification sign
is proposed at the principal site entry along 83rd Avenue
Northeast. This sign will be constructed of brick materials
compatible with the type and color of exterior materials of the
apartment homes. Each of the nine buildings will also have street
address and building identification on the canopies at the central
entries.
If you have any questions concerning this narrative or the
Application, please Eeel free to give me a call.

TO; Nasim Qureshi, City Mar�ager
FROb1: Jock Ftc�bertson, Coirmunity Development Director
DATE: 26Sep86
SUBJECT: City Comnissions Structure
During the past year, there has been a decline of interest on the part of inembers in
the Conarnnzity Development Caru�dssion. There are two vacancies currently, and an
apparent difficulty in finding citizens willing to serve.
Nlany of the concminity developmznt functions are naa beinq handled by the HRA and the
Planning Conanission. Therefore, it would be appropriate to dissolve the Comm��nity
Development Ca»�nission ancl request the reniaining three menbers to continue serving the
city on one of the other five resnaining corrnnissions under the Planning Cottunission.
I suggest the remaining CDC meirbers be given their choice, and any extra numbers of
ma�rbers on the other crnrtnissions be allaaed to simply reduce back to the normal five
merri�ers by attrition.

Rf�ARDING: DwnYster Enclosures
�-.� '-,.
Zb require scceeniny of outdoor trash or garbage zeceptacles from view from
�ublic ric�t-of-wa}�s and resiclential areas. Screening should be permanent,
aurable, attractive and low maintenance while contributing to sanitary
storage of ce�use.
In ori;er to achie✓e this goal the following entcy should be placed in the
screeniny section of all oonm�ercial and industrial district sections and in
the R-3 section of the zoning code:
"All outdoor trash or garbage stozage receptacles must be located
in the rear or sioe yarbs and be totally screened from view frori
ain� �,ubiic ric�t-of-way and/or cesidential area."
a. Enclosures shall be designed out of material that is
arcl�itectucally oanFatiUle with the princi�xl structure such as
brick, architectural tilock, Foured concrete and possihly wood.
b. Gates may not be r�cessacy if the opening would not be visible
from the putalic or residential viEw. If a gate is needed then
it shoulo be opaque and oonstructed out of sturdy treated wood
or a slatted chain link fenoe.
a Receptacles which do not require screening shall be maintained
in a clean and orc"serly fashion.
d. All restaurants shall have a masonry enclosute with an oFaque
ga te.
Note that the afocenentioned language would allow staff discretion in
deteIInining which receptacles would require screening; full, Fartial or none
at all.
A oo�non oanglaint of haulers and business operators is that enclosure gates
are tcouGlesane. Staff should enoourage that the entry side of the enclosure
be faoed away f�an ci�t-of-ways oc cesidential views s�o as to eliminate the
need for screening.

RI�ARDING: L`�unyster F.nclosures
I surveyed Bloomington, Rrooklyn Park, Eden Pcaicie, hi3plew000, r�innetonka,
Richfield and Shoreview to see hav they dealt with the need to enclose refuse
au,��sters. �iere are sor�e oormion ideas shared b� these Cities. 7hcy are:
1. F11 diar.Fstezs should te screened frcm pu�lic and tesic�ential view.
2. E7iclusures �ould be made fran material compatible with the princiYal
building st�ucture, exceF�t an o�que gate if it is neeaed to scceen the
aunF.ster frrn yublic view. 4he cpte can be a sturdy wooden or slatted
chain link fence.
3. E]�closures are to be at least five feet from any door or window of the
t,+ailaing.
4. Dum�ster enclosure structure is Fart of the building/landscaping review
pcocess.
One si�ificant difference tc, the above is Bloomington's position that for
all new developnent, dumpsters ace to be inside the buildin9 behind an
overhead door with a spzinkler systen installed. In a few exceptions they
Nill alla, four-sided enclosures outside of the building with a roof and
installed sprinkling.
Minnetonka and Shoreview have been recently encouraging dumpsters to be
reoessed in the building behind an ovezhead door.

HUMAN RESOURCES COMMISSION
MEETING
OCTOBER 2, 1986
CALL TO ORDER:
Chairperson Sherek called the October, 1986, Human Resources Commission
meeting to order.
ROLL CALL:
Members Present: Sue Sherek, Claudia Dodge, Dick Storla, Paul Westby
Members Absent: None
Others Present: Lieutenant Dave Sallman, Fridley Police Department
Ric Wiersma, Planning Assistant.
1. Guest Speaker - Lieutenant Dave Sallman
Ms. Sherek moved to agenda item 1 to discuss the issues of domestic
violence with Lt. Sallman from the Police Department.
Lt. Sallman reviewed records for the last twelve months to provide
information on the situation in the City of Fridley. In the last twelve
months, the number of actual domestic assaults, including adults and
juveniles, was 86 (14 of these were with juveniles). These were reported
cases. Lt. Sallman indicated reporting had improved greatly since August
I985. In the past the police were not required to give reports to the
social services department and vice versa. The police typically give
reporis to social services because they normally are better equipped to
deal with the problem. The law now requires social services to report
their cases to the police.
Lt. Sallman stated that a6use includes physical contact whether it be
hitting or sexual contact. Neglect includeslack of care whether it be
lack of food, inadequate clothing, etc. 42 cases of neglect were
reported. In the area of sexual abuse, 29 criminal sexual assaults were
reported, 7 were adults and 22 juveniles. Of these, 10 were intrafamilial.
Criminal sexual assaults are ranked by what occurs and takes into
consideration the relationships between the assaulter and the victim.
Assaults are treated in the same way, taking into consideration the level
of severity, use of weapons, etc.
Ms. Dodge asked if Lt. Sallman felt 7 adults reporting sexual assaults was
a very low number and if he felt that many people were not reporting sexual
assaults.
Lt. Sal2man sLated that he had been told the vast majority of sexual
assaults are not reported and he felt this was true. Many people do not
report a sexual assault because they are embarassed or they are assaulted
by someone they know. The figures given are cases actually reported. Lt.
Sallman felt a person could assume the actual number was considerably higher.
He felt this was true of any type of criminal activity.
HUhtAN RESQURCES COMKISSION MEETING, OCTOBER 2, 1986 PAGE 2
Mr. Storla asked if all recorded ceports were verified.
Lt. Sallman did not know the results or how they were investigated. The
police must show probable cause that an assault occurred and to prosecute
the police must show beyond a reasonable doubt that the assault occurred.
Even when there is sufficient evidence to prosecute, victims do not always
continue the process. In the case of children, the child needs to be
there. Sometimes the child is too young to tell what has happened to them
or they are not consistent in their stories. It takes a lot of time to do
these types of investigations. The County has people trained to deal with
children and there are civilian employees who deal with school children,
but generally these cases are dealt with by the County.
Ms. Sherek asked who reports juveniles and how does that information come
out.
Lt. Sallman stated this happens in a number of different ways. In cases
of divorce, a child stays with the non-custodial parent and the child says
mom's boyfriend did something to me, sometimes they tell a friend and
sometime they tell a parent. A lot of times when we have programs in the
schools, kids will come up to the program facilitator after the program and
tell of an incident. There are times when p�rents come home and have found
children involved and find the children have learned this from other kids.
If the police cannot identify adults involved, the case is turned over to
social services.
Mr. Storley asked if social services keeps records and reports to Yhe
police the results of their investigations.
Lt. Sallman stated that social services are required by law to keep certain
records and report back to the police. In criminal cases, the County's
Major Crime Investigation Unit get involved. They handle most of the
major crimes, and the local police gets feedback from them. The difference
between social services involvement and law enforcement involvement is that
law enfotcement staff are generally involved for a shott time. The police
are concerned with making a case and will work to remedy a situation such
as removing children from the home. Then social services takes over until
the judge makes a decision in the case. The exception is prevention
programs.
Lt. Sallman stated that 570 domestics were reported. Domestics are arguments
with no assault. The domestic abuse law now includes abuse by a family
member. If the police come in and see signs of abuse or threats, the
assaulting person is taken out and put in jail. The pezson must appear
before a judge. The big benefit of the law is that the assaulting person
is taken out of the home. This has made a difference in a number of cases.
Mr. Storley asked xhat percentage of these 570 cases did the police find
evidence of assault.
Lt. Sallman stated that when evidence of �ssauYt is found, the reports are
then classified as assaults so none of the 570 cases included evidence of
assault.
Mr. Storley asked if domestic abuse is often times reported by another
party.
HUMAN RESOURCES COMMISSION MEETING, OCTOBER 2, 1986 YAGE 3
LL. Sallman stated that cases are oftentimes reported by a third party or
by the spouse. Again, these are only reported cases. When the police are
called to a domestic, they provide telephone numbers for counseling
assistance, safe shelters, etc. The police encourage people to report
cases of abuse.
Ms. Sherek asked about laws regarding abuse to the elderly.
Lt. Sallman stated that the laws regarding the elderly were very similar
to laws regarding juveniles with regard to departments to notify, etc.
Mr. Storley stated that nationally it is reported that about 1 in 25
elderly persons is abused.
Ms. Sherek stated that the vulnerable adult act was designed so the
vulnerable adult did not have to file a complaint. A third party could
actually report it.
Ms. Sherek asked about training programs.
Lt. Sallman stated that programs have been given in handling child porno-
graphy, family violence, child sexual assaults, gang and date rapes, and
more. The best trained are civilian employees who have had more training
and know how to investigate child abuse cases. They deal primarily with
children, and they work more as a social worker. If there is an indication
of a criminal act, the County is called in to investigate.
Mr. Storiey stated that these people seem to be geared more toward children
than toward adults.
Lt. Sallman stated that this was true of the civilian employees. Officers
are trained in domestic abuse. Officers generally have two years of
college where they receive training in handling domestic abuse and how
to deal with family violence issues. A lot also has to do with eaperience
and awareness.
Lt. Sallman reported there had been 8 suicides in the last three years.
To his knowledge, there had not been any juvenile suicides. There had been
28 aitempted suicides. These are not reported to the press. In terms of
numbers, suicide is not a big issue although it is traumatic in terms of
what it does to families and friends,
Ms, Dodge indicated that there is reported a great deal of depression
among juveniles even in the elementary schools.
Ms. Sherek felt the press can romanticize suicide. Juveniles need to be
trained that this is not the way to deal with problems.
Lt. Sallman sLated that in many cases people who commit suicide are not
actually killing themselves. Ttzey are trping to hurt someone else. Very
often comments are heard such as "I'm sorry I couldn't �ake you happy."
From the police oFficers' standpoint, if it looks as if a suicide is likely
to happen, the person will be locked Up and then someone called in to make
a judgment.
HUyAN RESOURCES COMMISSION MEETING, OCTOBER 2, 1986 PAGE 4
Ms. Sherek stated that the highest risk group is the 20-24 year-olds
followed by the elderly.
Ms. Sherek thanked Lt. Sallman for coming to the meeting and for all his
efforts in putting together this information.
APPROVAL OF SEPTEKBER 4, 1986, HUMAR RESOURCES COMMISSION MINUTES:
MOTION by Mr. Storley, seconded by Ms. Dodge, to approve the September 4,
1986, Human Resources Commission minutes as written.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON SBEREK DECLARED THE MOTION
CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
2. OLD BUSINESS
A. Consideration of 1986-87 Workplan
Ms. Sherek noted the workplan is lacking timetables and prioritization
for some of the items.
Mr. Wiersma stated that staff had been working on the timetable but
this had not been completed. He stated that he would have staff continue
working on this and get the information out to members.
Ms. Sherek asked the committee to decide what they would like to
cover at the November meeting. What did they feel the next priority
should be.
Pfr. Storley suggested discussing adult illiteracy and getting a speaker
to come to the meeting. Mr. Storley had spoken with Mr. Tom Maurer
of the Community education office who stated that, because of some of
the television advertising, the adult illiteracy problem has been brought
before the public and they now have more volunteers. Fridley is in a
consortium for the northwest area. Nationally, it is estimated that 2
out of 10 adults are illiterate. In Minnesota it is felt that this is
somewhat lower. There is a group working on a bill to get money for
outreach in this legislative session. Another idea was for the school
district to levy for funds for adult illitetacy. Mr. MaUrer would
be willing to be a guest speaker and has given the name of another person
who may be willing Yo come to speak on this subject. He mentioned that
one of the biggest problems is oUtreach. He feels there are many
people who don't come forward because they are embarassed about being
illiterate.
Ms. Dodge felt that most people who are illiterate feel isolated. It
is difficult to do outreach for these people. Some persons are found
Lo be i2?iteraLe when they are sent to job education. Volunteers who
teach reading cover only part of the problem. Volunteers are also
needed to help with transportation, child care, etc.
iOURCES COMifI55I0N MEETING, OCTOBER 2, 1986 PAGE 5
�s. Sherek requested Mr. Wiersma to get the dates added to the workplan
and include this item on the agenda for the next meeting.
Policies and Procedures for ro-Fault Grievance Commiitee
Ns. Sherek asked if information had been received from the State
Department of Human Rights regarding training sessions.
Mr. Westby indicated he had called for information but he had not yet
ceceived anything.
Ks. Sherek asked the commission to review the no-fault grievance
procedure and asked the commission to recommend what they iaould like to
use for reporting.
ys. Dodge asked what the committee was using now.
Ms. Sherek stated that the committee receives a list of grievances
from the Department of Human Rights. Guidelines were attached to
the agenda. The information the committee is allowed to keep is what
the complaint is and what the solution is. A cover letter needs to
be developed which will go to the party filing the complaint and the
party who is being complained about.
Mr. Westby asked if the person filing the grievance needed Co be a
resident of the city of Fridley.
Ms. Sherek stated that the grievant does not have to reside in the
city; however, the employer or landlord or person being complained
about would be in the City.
Ms. Dodge asked where complaints are separated into no-fault types
of complaints and those handled by the county mediation project.
Ms. Sherek indicated that these are two separate types of complaints
and are handled by different. The no-fault grievances are handled by
the Department of Human Rights. In some instances, the Department of
Human Rights insLructs persons to conLact the City directly.
MF. Wiersma stated his understanding was that the no-fault grievance
deal�t with discrimination where the mediation project dealt with
disputes.
Ms. Sherek stated that an intake form is provided to o6tain information
about the discrimination involved. Ms. Sherek will make copies for the
members of the No-Fault Grievance Committee and ask them for their comnents
and have them return their comments in time for discussion at the next
meeting.
Ms. Dodge expressed interest in receiving training.
Ms. Sherek recommended she call the Department of Human Rights and let
them know of her interest.

Mr. Wiersma'passed out minutes from the meeting and indicated that the
City Council had approved the funding of $1,500 for the project which
is the amount requested. The funding will start in January. '
Ms. Sherek asked if the funding was a one-time funding.
Mr. ti'iersma did not think this was a one-time request.
B. P1r. 1Jiersma announced that their second child was due November-Sth

2. nEld BL'SINESS:
A. Minnesota Recreation and Park Association (MRPA) Presentation
Pfr. Kondrick moved to agenda item 2.A. for a presentation from members
of the MRPA.
Pfs. Zwernik stated the MRPA is a professional society for people
involved in the leisure activities. The MRPA will be in eaistence 50
years in 1987. The MRPA is a non-profit organization and a professional
society with a Board oF Directors and a staff of three. The staff
consists o£ Ms. Zwernik who is the executive director, a person in
charge of recreational programs, and a clerical person. One of the
major functions o£ the organization is the monthly newsletter. Copies
of the September and October newsletters were distriUuted. Ms. "Lwernik
reviewed the committees of the organization and provided additional
information on programs £or seniors, wellness programs, designing and
retrofitting facilities for people with disabilities, and the Wa1k
Minnesota program. The MRPA was also successful in lobbying for passin�
a bill limiting liabilities to communities. The association has also
been involved in providing continuing education programs includin� the
liability crisis and risk management.
Mr. Fawbuah is trie Director of Parks and Recreation in Robbinsdale
and a professional member of the MRPA. He asked a councilman what he
liked about the MRPA. He liked the newsletter and seminars, and he
appreciated the fact that he was a voting member. Mr. Fawbush felt
the association has many interesting and good seminars. He felt the
association helps promote leisure services of the Parks and Recreation
Department and helps in the process of communication. The Board and
Commissions Section has been discussing networking and hopes to see more
interaction between cities to see what other cities are doing. The City
of Robbinsdale has been a member for over ten years.
h1s. Lonsbury is chairperson of the Edina Parks Board, works with the
Met Council, and is chairperson of the Board and Commissions Section
of the MRPA. She stated the association is planning a meeting in the
northern and and they plan to invite all staff and park board people.
The first meeting was held last spring and another is scheduled for
November in Edina. At the spring meeting in Duluth, meetings included
discussions park promotion, goal setting, and networking. Membership
dues are $85.00 �:hich includes the members of the Commission. Each
person will get a newsletter delivered to their home.
Ms. Schreiner asked how many communities were members of the MRPA.
Ms. Lonsbury stated that 31 communities belong. She noted that some
of the park boards are working together. An example is Mounds View,
Shoreview and New Brighton.
Ms. Zweinik indicated thai seminars at the state conference included
goa� sztting, networking and bond referendums. This provide an
apportunity to learn from others experiences.
Ms. Lonsbury stated that meetings held in the Cities are dinner meetings
and would probably be more app�opriate £oi commission members.
RECREATZON CO?1*]ISSIOh PtEETInG, OCTOBER 6, 1986 PAGE 3
Commission members thankedthe representatives of the !fRfA for comin�
to the meeting and for sharing information about their organization.
Mr. Kirk stated that he is a member of the MRPA and is on the
Recreational Sports Commission. He felt the association is trying to
show more involvement at the state level and to be of service to the
cities and board members. The next conference will be held at the
Sheraton �orthwest and it would be nice io have Fridley involved.
Mr. Kirk stated that the commission members would be getting the
National Recreation and Parks magazine� through their \RPA membership.
He suggested trying the state membership for one year.
Ms. Schreiner thought the national magazine was to have come some time
ago.
Mr. Kirlc stated that the renewal date was November so the subscription
for commission members cras set up to start at the time of renewal. The
magazine includes happenings in the legislature and what other areas
are doing.
P]r. Young referred to the MRPA's discussion on referendums. The Uoard
makes decisions and doesn't know of others experiences. They also have
programs for senior citizens. He felt that could be helpful. If the
funds are available, Mr. Young would like to try a one-year membership
in the MRPA.
Ms. Schreiner asked the amount of the membership to the national
association.
Mr. Kirk thought the dues were approximately $350.
Mr. Kondrick felt membership in the state association would be useful
and asked Mr. Kirk to see if funds were available.
Ms. Schreiner felt it Fould be nice to visit an MRPA meeting. SYie would
also like to meet with other boards from other cities in the area to see
what they uere doing. She preferred receiving the national magazine for
noN and waiting on the MRPA membership.
Mr. Kirk felt anyone could attend an MRPA Section meeting; however, the
PSFPA Board meeting would perhaps not be of interest for visitors.
Mr. Allen felt another consideration was the support the MRPA provides
in areas such as the liability legislation. He felt the dues were
reasonable and felt it could be well worth it in terms of knowing other
people who have knowledge and experience.
Mr. Kirk agreed to check to see if the dollars were available.
Mr. Kondrick asked that this item be placed on the agenda for the next
meetiug.
PARKS & RECREATION CAPQff SSION r�ETING OGTOBER 6, 1986 PAGE 4
1. DIRPCPOR'S REPORT:
A. Senior Citizen's Program
P1r. Kirk reviewed what had happened withthe program to date. In July,
a senior citizen's group stated they would like financial support foz
their programs. City staff worked with the group to come up with an
outline of exactly what they wanted. The group wanted to hire a full-
time coordinator for the senior program. They had funding for four
months and needed funding for the remainder of the yeaz or eight months.
Staff suggested they ask the City to fund an on-going gosition rather
than asking the City for money year-after-year. The Community Education
staff felt they should supervise the position if the person was housed
in their building; however, the City felt they should supervise the
position if they were funding the position 100%. An agreement was
reached on this supervision issue between the City and School District.
The facilities will be taken care of by the school district and the
position will be supervised by the City. The person now in the job will
work through December 31, 1986. The request was approved by the City
Council this evening, October 6, that there would be a position start-
ing January 1, 1986, for a full-time Senior Citizen Program Coordinator.
Staff will work out the specifics and present these back to the City
Cotimcil at a later date.
Mr. Young asked if the person already working as coordinator would be
the employee for this position.
Mr. Kirk replied no, but this individual may apply for the position
if hejshe wishes. The City will make the decision on who will be hired.
Mr. Gargaro asked if the funding for this position would come out of
the Parks and Recreation budget.
Mr. Kirk expected yes it would, however, he did not know if additional
funds would be added to the budget. He s[ated that the budgets are
usually apptoved in October and he would not know where this funding
would be until then.
Dir. Kondrick asked how many senior citizens are in the City.
Pir. Kirk indicated there are approximately 4,000 senior citizens in
the City. This includes all persons ages 55 and over.
Ms. Schreiner wondered why the request did not come through the Qbmmission.
PIr. Kirk indicated that the senior group had come before the Council
with their request and the Council had directed them to meet with
staff and come back with a proposal.
Mr. Kirk thought the coordinator for the program would work out of
the drop-in center and handle all the services the City is now doing
plus expand the program. Responsi6ilities of current CiCy staff will
have La be. adjusted or restructured when senior programming is taken
aver by the new person.
2. B
ECREATION COMMISSI01 itEETInG, OCTOBER 6, 1986 1'AGE 5
s. Schreiner wondered if Lhere kould be enough to do to justify a
ull-time person.
r. Kirk felt the drop-in center would be a time consuming duty and
xpanding the program will also take time. This position is going to
zquire a very good PR person. Mr. Kirk added that the position would
e looked at and reviewed after one year.
r. Gargaro asked if this would affect the Lions Club programs, Jaycees
cograms, etc.
r. Kirk did not think these programs zaould be adversely affected.
r. Kondrick did not wish to have the issue coming back to the
ommission since the commission had not been involved.
r. Gargaro asked if the commission would have an inpnt in the hiring
cocess.
r. Kirk said they would not be directly involved in the hiring process.
job description will be developed, and Mr. Kirk felt he would have
report on this in November.
r. Boudreau Retirement
r. Airk announced that Dr. Boudreau would retire NovemUer
,��embers are invited to his retirement dinner to be held at
Restaurant on November 2.
Sth. Commissio❑
Sandee's
Pir. Al1en recommended giving Dr. Boudreau a token of appreciation.
Mr. Kondrick suggested a plaque.
Ptr. Kirl: recommended checking iaith the City Manager's office because
they sometimes give a plaque to retirees.
Mr. Kondrick indicated he would discuss this further with staff and
get back to the members.
Meadowlands Park
Mr. Kondrick stated the minutes reflect what has happened regarding
Meadowlands Park and indicated that Mr. Gustafson plans to continue to
work on this.
Ms. Schreiner expressed concern about the residents on the perimeter
of the area being taxed differently to pay for the improvements. Other
people in the area would also be using the park.
Mr. Gar;aro felt iL important to get something resolved. He felt
something should be doae about the drainage.
Mr. Volkman stated the area has always had Wat.er pr�hlems ar.d that
the area was like this when residents hought ihe'sr property. With
more rain in the last five years, the area has become wet and has
created more problems for home oc.ners.
PARKS & RLCR�ATION CO'1�IISSIO\ NEETIflG. OCTOBER 6, 1
h]r. Allen stated that the 2/3 City and 1/3 citizens cost breakdown h�
not been well received by a number of residents and he did not know 1
something like could be enforced.
Mr. Kondrick asked the cost per homeowner.
Mr. Kirk stated that costs range from $4,000 to �10,000 for a total �
$90,000. -
Ms. Schreiner felt that if the area has a drainage problem the cost of
correcting the problem should be spread over the entire city just lilcc
other areas.
Mr. Gargaro understood there are drainage problems in other areas. }le
asked Mr. Volkman who pays for remedying the problem.
Mr. Volkman stated that the City normally handles.
Mr. Kirk stated that Mr. Gustafson came to the last meeting with a
different approach. Mr. Gustafson wanted the City to give the park land
to the neighbors to take.care of, if the City wasn't going to do any-
thing. Ptr. Gustafson was going to talk to the neighborhood corunittee
again and then come back to the Commission.
Ms. Schreiner thought that, if the money was available, the City should
tal:e care of the drainage problem at Meadowlands Park rather than do the
iaork at the Corunons.
P1r. A11en asked what this would do to the home values.
PSs. Schreiner felt this would be an advantage to the home owners.
Mr. Allen felt that the basic work should be done first which would be
providing drainage to the Meadowlands Park rather than do work on the
Commons.
i1r. Young thought this could eteate problems with other areas that also
ha��e drainage problems. He also noted that Meadowlands Park is not
easily accessible.
Mr. Gargato wondered i£ the commission should be looking at cost
sharing.
Mr. Allen felt the commission should ask the neighborhood what they
want to do.
Ms. Schreiner stated that some of the park's development included more
parking.
Mr. Allen felt it would be beneficial to give Mr. Gustafson the options
that had been discussed.
Mr. Kondrick asked Mr. Kirk to provide Mr. Gustafson with the information
and ask him if he has any thoughts. If so, ask Mr. Gustafson to come
back with a proposal at the next meeting.

�1r. Kondrick indicated that Pir. Kirk had checked with the school system
and found that there are 28 to 30 children in the area in grades
Kinder�arten through SLh. liith this many children in the area and with
access to other parks, is additional ice needed in this location?
Ms. Schreiner expressed concern about safety for the children�who �aould
have to taalk to other rinks.
Mr. 1'olkman indicated there is an underpass which is kept cleared of
snoca.
Mr. Youn� noted that the rinks are some distrance from his home and
chilren i.allc to those rinks.
Ms. Schreiner felt the committee needs to recognize that the services
provided an area need to change as the area itself changes.
Mr. Youn� felt the petition was misleading. Residents �aho have children
do not necessarily have children school age or children who would usc
an ice rink. He also wondered if the cost involved is justiPied for
the number of children that kould be using the rink and if there iaas
adequate space.
P1r. Volkman stated that tlle rink iaould be very small because there is
little space. The turf is also not that good and will deteriorate
after there is a rinl: there. He added that another area gave up their
ballpark to have an ice rinh.
Ptr. Gargaro noted that rinks generally are used six weeks. k'ithout a
�:armin� house, rinks would be used even less.
P1r. Volkman stated that when the City has gone to some of the rinks to
flood, which is done every other day> some of the rinics caere hardly
used.
Mr. Allen suggested a trade off to try to keep the number of rinks
consistent. 1ot a11 rinl:s are being supported.
Mr. Gargaro asked what takes more time for the rinks.
Mr. Volkman stated the initial flooding takes the longest time.
The committee discussed the various rinks, the location, accessibility,
and level of use.
Mr. Gargaro felt the rink with hockey were more heavily used.
Mr. Kondric�: felt it was n?cessary to make a judgment and if an area
is not being used then perhaps it should be eliminated. He did not
think the number of children supported another rink.
Ms. Schreiner asked which areas are being use and which are not; and
asked Mr. Vali:man for a recommendation.
PAR}:S & RPCREATION C0�1`tISSIO\ *tEE'PI\G. OCTOBER 6, 1986 PAGE 8
*1r. Volkman stated tl�at Glencoe and Ruth are busy. He didn't know if
there were many school age children in the Logan area. He felt skating
zaas down and that rinks are not used that much. He recommended, if
the commission were to iake out a rink, that Craig Park would be his
choice because it is harder to maintain and other rinks were close.
Mr. Allen felt there were other rinks in close proximity so that slcaters
could go to other areas.
MOTION by Mr. Young, seconded by Mr. Allen, to remove the ice rink at
Craig Park and to put in an ice rink at Edgecaater Park for a one-year
trial period.
Mr. Young felt that after one year the commission could decide
if the level of use would warrant putting in the rink the
following year.

Garoena School. Zhe petitioners, (hurch on the Move, had stated that they
were approximately a 60Q menber wngregation. �eir glan is to wntinue the
school operations as in the �st with the nunber of students ranging fcan 140
at present to 230 maximun. Church services would be held on Simdays with an
a.n service with up to 300 manbers attending and a p.m service with up to
100 manbers antici�teo to be attending.
Parking for the facility is tenatively planned at Totino-Grace High. Zhe
Zbtino lot holds approximately 260 cars. 7he lot is located directly accoss
frcm the school and shoula provide �ngle �cking. A Farking easement to be
reoordea at Anoka County with a wterminous ciuration with the special use
permit is plannea. Staff is suggesting that the parking agreement be
established for a minimun of one year; wording as to this effect has been
acided to stiFulation �5.
Approximately 150 people attendep the public hearing. Neighbors were
generally negative to tl�e pcoposal even thouqh Church on the Move has
imprwed nany of the neighbors ooncerns which they e�tessed some two months
ago when Faith Acaciany applied for a ci�y care special use pecmit_ A majority
of the oorroersation oentered around traffic prohlans on Gardena Avenue. It
was requeste6 1� the Planning Conunission that City engineering staff analyze
the traffic prohlens as the� related to both Totirio-Grace High and Church on
the Nbve.
Sctne iaeas which were raised at the meeting include no �arking on both sides
of Gardena Avenue, drop off student parking for the Church on the Move
facility, crosswalk between the Zbti.no-Grace High p�rking lot and the Church
on the Hbve, stop sic�s at key intersections and a possihle stoplight at the
intersection of Gardena Avenue ar� Old Central.
7he Planning Cac¢nission imanimously reoarmended appraval with the 12 attachecl
stipulations and the reoommendation that engineering staff review the traffic
and incorporate a repozt foi Council consideration. In order to assist
Co�mcil in their review a memorandum fran City Attorney Herrick is being
placed in their 10/17/86 packet (see page 3"Substantive Requirenents).

RF�ARDING: Special Use Pexmit #86-13 for Ronald Christenson
On October 8, 1986 the Planning Commission held a public heazing related to a
special use permit for a re�air garage at the old Shorty's Towing location.
Ronald Christenson. the petitioner, and Roger Schurr, the owner of the
proFecty, were both in attendance at this meeting. Staff presented a list of
20 stipuldtiOltS foX the Planning Conunission's revicia. �ere was a great deal
of discussion and det�te regarciing this matter which finally resulted in 3-2
vote in favor of gcanting the special use permit.
Same kx�ckground information may be helpful to the City Council in their
re�iew of this itan.
1. In March of 1986 Rv9er Schurz moved the Shorty's Zbwing loca tion to the
southern end of Fridley, at 37th Avenue and East River koad. At this
time the building was vacated.
2. In April of 1986 staff noticed some activities related to the start-up of
a new busi�ss at the Shorty's site.
3. On April 28, 1986 staff sent the owner, Mr. Schurz, a letter notifying
him that a special use permit would be needed for any new automotive
reFair lwsinesses at trie site. Special use pexmit application materials
were encloseci.
4. In mid-N,ay the �ristenson Wholesale Auto Re�ir business began operation
without a special use permit in violation of City Code.
5. Staff wntinueci to work with both the owner and operator to obtain a
special use permit apglication.
6. On July 15, 1986 staff sent the owrer non-compliance letter indicating
our intent to pursue legal actions if the special use permit procedures
were not follaaed. On July 30, 1986 tl�e aaner, Rnger Schurr, signed the
special use permit fozm and ma3e foanal apglication.
FUrther review and inspection by staff has shavn that actually two businesses
are presently operating out of Yhe site. �ae, the (hristenson Wholesale Auto
ReFxiir, and semnd, the autanative saies and leasing business operated b� Mr.
Paul �ruaimsky. In addition, Shorty's Taaing plans to use tl�e storaye yard
in the winter for towed snowbirds. On nunecous occasions staff has observed
in excess of thirty cars parked on the site, many in the fcont yard.
Proposed parking in the front of the building will allva for only seven cars.

In closing, we feel that if the stipulations as pro�:osed ace adhered to and
tl�e Facking stiFulations are honored, a singular autcar.otive re�ir operation
ftcm this site oould be an asset tn the oaru�iunity. Our fear is that the site
will continue to be overloaded with vehicles, creating oGsolescence in terms
of both traffic and visual clutter. It it suggested bi� staff that it be made
clear to the �titioners that the City will no longer tolerate the disoraerly
n�ruier in which this business has been run so far.
Please rnte that the rwjority of the stipulations have to be completeu by
NovenLec 15, 1986. Staff will reviea the site on a weekly basis to monitor
oan�Ziiance and will inform the Co�u3ci1 of progress at the Idovembe[ 17, 1986
Council n�eeting.
Attached is a list of the stiFulations as an��ended and �ssed b� the Planning
Cocunission on October 8, 1986.
