Mr. Robinson stated this property was located on the west side of �9ain Street.
The cortpany took occupancy (last yearpf the southerly five acres of the
CECO Corporation, which was approximate]y ten acres in size. 7he property was
zoned heavy industrial, M-2, and was surrounded on the west side of t9ain Street
by other industrial property and single family on the east side of !1ain Street.
z
PLAIJNING COMI1ISSION IdEETIlJG, AUGUST 26, 1987 PAGE 2
Mr. Robinson stated that earlier this summer, a Staff person, Daryl f1orey,
noted that tfiere was outside storage of materials at the site without the
benefit of a special use permit. Since that time, the owners of the property
have voluntarily applied for a special use permit.
Mr. Robir.son stated there was an existing metal building at the extrer�e west
end of the site. The rest of the property was open. There aras a concrete
block wall interruoted by a cyclone fence in the center with slats. The
block arall was approximately 8 ft. high, and there was about 150 ft. of
grassy area on the east end of the site. The storage material at this time
was approximately 12 semi-trailers a�hich were stored approximately in the
middle of the site and approximately 100 - 55 gallon drums toward the western
end of the site.
I•tr. Robinson stated Staff had some concern about the contents of those drums
and that was checked out by the 14PCA. They had received a nemo from
Greg Berger describing the materials stored there as non-hazardous. This was
obtained from an inspection at the Minneapolis site, and it was promised that
the f9PCA would inspect tiie drums at the Fridley site also. He did not knoar
the status of that inspection at this time, but it was his under�tanding that
these �aere the same barrels that �dere transferred from the Plinneapolis site
from which the company moved last fall.
Mr. Robinson stated that last December, a building permit was issued to the
company v�hich included a few stipulations: {1) there be a watermain loop at
the tir�ie of the next building expansion (Rubber Research does have plans for
expansion). (2) landscaping and hard surface parking with curbing to be
installed by June 1, 1988, or with new office building, whichever comes first.
(3) automatic sprinkling for front lawn to be installed with landscapina
per City's plan (part of Pla�ning Commission agenda).
Mr. 5vanda stated that earlier this year, there was a fire at this location.
What was the cause of that fire?
Mr. Arthur Leighton, Uice President of Rubber Research Elastomerics, I�c.,
stated the fire started in some finished goods that were put into cardboard
containers at too high a temperature and consequently the rubber cau�ht on
fire. This fiire �aas inside the facility.
Mr. Svanda stated there had also been a fire at the t1inneapolis site. 41hat
was the cause of that fire?
Mr. Leighton stated the fire at the t4inneapolis site was currently under liti-
gation. It was the company's allegation that a sprinkler company,in attempting
to tha�a out the sprinkler system with a blow torch, ignited the wall and the
building burned down.
Mr. Bil7ings asked what type of business the company was in.
PLANt�INr, COhR1ISSI0IJ t4EETI�JG, AUGUST 26, 1987 PAGE 3
Mr. Leighton stated they make base rubber compounds for the rubber industry,
specifically they sell rubber that is used to modify GAf asphalt and shingles,
they sell the rubber that is found in liardware stores for caulking. He
stated their rubber was used for pressure sensitive adhesive tapes, etc.
They do not make any finished goods.
Mr. Billings asked if there were any odors associated with this business.
Mr. Leighton stated that generally there were no odors. They do use petroleun
products, some of which have what is described as a"sweet odor". At their
14inneapolis facility which operated for 25 years, and now at the Fridley siie,
they have not received any corr�laints about odors, There was an odor that
was occasionally detectable inside the facility, but not outside the facili��.
Mr. Billings stated lie was on the northern portion of the site and as lie
progressed to the western edge of the site, he could smell a sweet ordor
cor�ing out of the large door.
f�1r. Leighton stated tliat was the odor of natural rubber which was compounded
at their Fridley facility for shipment to their Babbttt tire recyciing
operation.
Mr. Billings asked 11r. Leighton if he could qive an estimate of how many days
per year they would be making that particular product.
Mr. Leighton stated that, assuming 250 manufacturing days in the year, he
would expect they would be making that particular product approximately 100 days.
Mr. Sillings stated that at Main Street, he did not detect any odor, and on
the particular day he was at the site, the wind was coming from the southwest.
Ne did not think that occasional odor would be a big problem.
t1r, Robertson stated he would like to ask the representatives of the company
if they have any hazardous materials on the site at this time or if they plan
to have any hazardous mater9als on the site with the expansion in the future.
Mr, Leighton stated they do not generate any hazardous waste and the letter
supplied to the City from the MPCA stated there were no hazardous materials
at the MinneapoTis site. They have introduced no new materials to the Fridley
site that they have not had at the Minneapolis site and do not contemplate
having any hazardous waste or any hazardous materiaTs on the site.
Mr. Betzold asked if the company had any evidence of break-ins or vandalism
since the company moved to the Fridley site.
Mr, Leighton stated they have not.
Mr. Robinson stated the screening of the storage yard was fairly good exceot
for the cyclone fence that was slatted in the middle.
PLANWItJG COMI1ISSIOPJ �9EETI�JG, AUGUST 26, 1987 PAGE 4 �
Mr. Ro�inson stated he had a conversation with an architect who is working
for Rubber Research, and he gave Mr. Robinson a good description of the
development plans. It was a growing company, and they do have a priority to
build a warehouse facility of 10-15,000 sq. ft., primarily used to store
the barrels inside. They would like to continue to leave the trailers outside.
They also plan to build some lab space and office space. The Planning
Commission might want to consider a time frame for the construction of that
warehouse.
Mr. Leighton stated he had plans available for the proposed expansion if the
Planning Corrrnission members were interested in looking at them. He stated
they hope the expa�sion will occur some time next summer, based on recent
projections.
Mr. Billings asked about the semi-trailers that were stored on the site.
Mr. Leighton stated these were old unroad-worthy trailers, used to store
raw material and materials that need to be reworked.
Mr. Kondrick asked Mr.Leighton if those trailers would be removed from the
site when the expansion was completed.
Mr. Leighton stated they do not foresee the absolute elimination of the
trailers, simply because of the nature of their business. They are essentially
in the recycling business. The tire recycling they do gains them some press,
but the business they have been doing for 25 years was recycling rubber.
IJormally, they get in truckloads of material, they have to go through that
material and winnow out that which is salvageable or recyclab1e and that
which is trash. At any one time, they will have trailers on the site. He
would assume the storage trailers would disappear once they have the storage
warehouse; however „ because of the nature of their business, they would be
receiving truckloads of material. These would not be stationary trailers.
Mr. Billings stated he had noticed that some of the grassy area toward the
east end of the site inside tfie fence had some very high weeds. Does the
company periodically mow the lawn and maintain the site?
Mr. Terr,� Mortenson stated CECO Corporation was still storing some materials
on the property and until those things are removed, it would not be a good
idea to be running a lawn mower through there. They will be maintaining
that part of the property.
The Planning Commission members took a few minutes to look at the company's
future plans for expansion.

PLANNI(�G COMMISSION MEETING, AUGUST 26, 1987 PAfE 5
Mr. Robinson stated that if the special use permit was recommended for
approval by the Planning Commission,he would suggest that the three stipu-
lations he had mentioned earlier be put on the special use permit. The
Planning Commission could change the date of June 1, 1988, to Octoberl, 1988,
to give the company a little more time.
Mr. Billings stated that since they do not have a timetable for the construc-
tion of the storage building, maybe they should add a stipulation requirinq
gravel and/or crushed rock in the relocated storage area with the provision
that tfie City review the special use permit in one year to monitor the
progress of the inside storage facility.

Mr. Billings stated the special use permit would go to City Gouncil on Sept. 14.
2. C�WSIDERATIOtJ OF RECODIFICATI�tJ OF THE FRIDLEY CITY CODE TO ALLObI COMMERCIAL
Mr. Robinson stated that as a follow-up to the discussion at the last two
Planning Commission meetings, Staff had prepared a draft in ordinance form
for first reading of the recodification of the M-1 and M-2 zones and also
the definition section of the Zoning Code which deals with allowing some
limited commercial businesses in office/warehouse type of developments. Ne
reviewed the drafted ordinance with the Cor�mission members.
Mr. Robinson stated Mr. Dave iVewman, City Attorney, had reviewed this draft
and Mr. �Jewman felt there should be a redefinition of Class II restaurants,
also a change in the definition of "CorrQnercial Recreation". Originally, Staff's
thought was to limit commercial recreation to health clubs and g;�nnasiums,
but apparently that viould not be a•ngnageable solution in that there really
was no reason to make a distinction between hea7th clubs and billiard halls
or bowling alleys.
PLANNING C0�4MISSION MEETING, AUGUST 26, i487 PAGE 6
Mr. Billings stated that if, for example, a large development decided they needed
a"Rapid Oil Change" operation or a"Firestone Tire Store" to service their
employees, how would this fit intc, the "Commercial retail and service us�s,,,
within office/industrial mixed use bui7dings which are supplemental to and
for the convenience of the operation of the zoning district and which provides
goods and services which are primaril,v for the use of persons employed in
that district..."?
�4r. Ro�inson stated an argument could certainly 6e made to that effect; however,
the limitation of size and signage wou7d make it prohibitive for such an
operation as described by P4r. Billings.
Mr. Billings asked wiio made the determination on "which provide goods and
services which are primariTy for the use of persons employed in that district„ "�
Mr. Robinson stated that once the special use permit was granted, that would
be a staff determination in the process of monitorinq each tenant's occupancy.
Ne stated the buildings really did not tend themseives to that type of operation.
1�1r. RoLinson called the Commiss9on's attention to the Citv of Rosevil]e's
Zoning Code, "Permitted Uses in B-4 Retail Office Service Districts". lie
stated that apparently the City of Roseville created a new district wl�ich
they are utilizing in their redevelopment areas, and it seemed to 6e specifi-
cally directed at the service economy... The uses permitted were rnedical and
dental services; offices, business, and professional; private clubs or lodges;
motels and motor hotels; mortuaries; research, design and development esta6lish-
ments; restaurants over 5,000 sq. ft. in area; banks and financial institutions
including drive-in facilities. As discussed in the Fridlev draft ordinance,
Roseville also allcwed health clubs; bowling alleys; blueprinting and photo-
copying establishments; catering establishments; clothing and costume rental
shops; linen towe7s, draperies, and similar supply services; orthopedic and
medical appliance stores; pet shops; recording studios; manufacture of elec-
tronic equipment and medical instrumentation devices. It also allowed certain
things with special use permits on an individual basis such as office service
building ; retaii sales and service structures; automntive type uses; construc-
tion trade and operat9ons; who7esale businesses (provided the area allocated to
storage not exceed 50% of the total floor area of the building); exterior
storage of trucks; public utilit,y facilities; automobile service stations;
printing shops; off-sale liquor stores not located in shoping centers, etc.
Mr. Robinson stated one of the more interesting sections in the Roseville Code
was that each building built in this district requires a special use permit
regardless of what was intended to go into the building. At that time, all
the si�e development, proper landscaping, etc., was critiqued by tfie Plannina
Commission and City Council. After that, if any of the uses cited were desired
to be part of the building, then an additional special use permit would be
required.
Mr. Robinson stated if Fridey was to use the type of system Rosevilie was
using, they would be creating a new zoning district and �rnuld have tn go 6ack
and rezone all the existing office/warehouse developments. It would be
feasible but certainly more time consuming. The benefit miah± be that it
PU>iU7Ii1f COMt1ISSI0W t1EETING, AUGUST 26, 1987 PAGE 7
might open up new areas for the use of these structures b�� various other
commercial busir�esses.
Mr. Billings stated the Roseville ordinance certainly provided an entirely
different approach than e�hat the Plannin9 Commission had been 7ookina at for the
last couple of v�eeks. What was the feeling of the Planning Cor�mission in
light of tfiis potential philosophical change?
11r. Saba stated it was possible that the uses would change over several years
to be r�ore of a retail complex and get away from the industrial character.
11r. Ro�inson stated that in looking at the tenants in the various office/
warehouse buildings, a number of tliem were very much retail-oriented (retail
sho��iroom or retail warehouse}. This change in the ordinance would open up the
market to a larger varidty of retai� operaCions.
t1r. Robinson stated at the last meeting, the Planning Cor�mission set a public
hearing for IJed., Sept. 16. The Planning Commission had also requested that
public hearing notices and the pro�osed ordinance be sent to anyone �iho has
or is proposing an office/warefiouse development in the City. He stated
Dave PJewman had recommended that Staff talk to the Chamber oP Commerce and
either attend one of their meetings or invite them to the public hearin9 in
order to get the Char�ber's input also.
Mr. Betzold stated Staff should mal;e the Citv Council aware that there is a
second proposal, and this could be brought out at the public hearinq to see
if there is any interest in it.
Mr. Billings asked Ms. fisher or Mr. Selgarde if they had any statements to
make regarding the pr000sed draft ordinance.
Ms. Fisher stated they have been monitoring the progress of this ordinance
and have provided sane information to City Staff in preparing the ordinance.
She stated they had reviewed the draft in pretty much the same form as the
Planning Corra!iission had reviewed it; however, they had not had a chance to
revietia the Roseville alternate. � She had worked with tt�e Roseville alternate
because she has represented deve7opers in Roseville, but she did not know
whether Mr. Belgarde was familiar with it.
Ms. Fisher stated they would like to complement Staff and Planning
Commission on their deliberations in this matter. She believed that if the
changes were made in the ordinance to allow, under certain circumstances,
commercial type establishments in the industrial district, it was going to
be an overall benefit to the conmunity in terms of marketing mixed use
buildings. She also believed the restrictions in the draft ordinance which
were extensive were definitely going to limit the type of uses that might be
coming up. The parking restrictions were going to make it difficult for an
existing offfce/service center project to allow a major commercial user and
still meet parking requirements.
—�
PLANIdIIJG COM�4ISSION MEETING, AUGUS7 26, 1987 PAGE 8
Ms. Fisher stated they were generally comfortable with the ordinance as
presented by Staff. IQr. Belgarde did have a question on the hours of operation,
and they would like to discuss that with Staff.
Ms. Fisher stated Staff could provide the Commission information on the
benefits or disadvantages of the Roseville ordinance, but she thought if the
City was io go uith the text of that ordinance to create a new district and
were then to wait for a deveioper to request a rezoning, if the developer
has an existing development and has a tenant that might fit into the develop-
ment, tlie City might be setting up a fairly cumbersome procedure that might
discourage a lot of good tenants the City mtght wish ta have, As the
Corrmissioners knew, the City`s rezoning process was long, and there were not
going to be very many tenants that were going to be able to wait for that
lengthy prccess. For example, with East River Road Business Center, if
Mr. Belgarde had to start a rezoning process after the first of the ,year when
tlie City adopted a new ordinance, it was really questionable whether he would
go through tliat process. Also, whenever there is a rezoning, the develoaer
had a different burden of proof legally than he/she does with a special use
permit and it was more difficult because the City would have to look at the
plans, etc., and she just thought there were a number of restrictions. She
was not saying the Commission should reject the Roseville ordinance, but it
would be creating a much different animal. Roseville was creating a whole
near redevelopment distrtct, and fridley already had a redevelopment district.
Mr. Kondrick stated he would 7ike to recommend that they change the hours
of operation in the drafted ordinance from 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m.
to 10:00 p.m.
Mr. Robinson stated that Mr. Newman had a7so suggested that imposing hours of
operation might be an unnecessary hardship, and the hours of operation might
be able to be eliminated completeiy from the ordinance.
;�ir. Billings stated there was going to be a public hearing, and he felt they
should leave the hours of operation in at this time so they can be discussed
at the public hearing.
Mr. Robinson stated he would send copies of the proposed ordinance to interested
developers, the Chamber of Commerce, etc., with a cover letter signed by the
Planning Commissio� Chairperson inviting them to the Sept. 16 public hearing.
Mr. Robinson stated the public hearing was to get input on the pronosed
drafted or�i5rance, and the Roseville ordinance did not need to be discussed
at that time.
Mr. Robertson stated the Roseville ordinance had been provided to the
Commiss5oners for informationa7 purposes showing a completely different approach,

Rf�ARDING: Central Roofing Odor Test
On Wednesday, August 19, 1987 at 3:30 p.m. the odor test designed by 74rin
City Testing was repeated b� the folla.�ing g3ne1 menbers:
Coimcilmenber, Nancy Jorgenson
Planning Conanission Chainnan, Steve Billings
Code Enforc�nent/Planner, Lisa Campbell
President of Central Roofing Co., Anthony Spigarelli
R�ltor, Janes Benson
Director of Coirnn�mity Develognent, Jock Robertson
The results of this field test were essentially the same as the a�rlier field
test conducted by �in City Testing on April 27 and April 28. A
southwesterly breeze was blaaing at about 10 m.p.h. �e �xinel was positioned
at 50 foot intervals on the front lawn of hanes on Main Street directly
across the street from the CECO property. �ey were able to detect the
asphalt odor fran the two trucks that were heated to a temperature slightly
over 300 degrees. The odor lasted between 5-10 seconds and was of the
irrtensity similar to the aior frctn a diesel truck or bus. After the trucks
were �rked on the western edqe of the property, the panel then walked to,vard
then and was not able to detect the odor from the txucks until they were
within 50 feet.
Based on these results together with the reviEw of the oangleted EAW and the
descziptiai of the proposed activity, the City Council should be advised to
decide whether to oontinue the 30 day environmental review process through
the State Legister and sewndly to set a date for a public hearing. At the
ha3ring the Council would revicw the permit applications and set stiFulations
for the permit based on the findings of the F�+5�7, ti�e field odor testing and
Central Roofing's description of the pro�sed activity. _

Re: Ceco Property
4500 Main Street
As you may already be aware, your neighbor on Main Street, the
Ceco Corporation, is in the pcocess of moving from their ten acre
industrir.l site to a new location in Ham Lake, Minnesota. The
(,cCi% �.VCLOCuLiUli i:d:- S:JrL C[1r, j��i1C�� ..i.�..� u'..1'1:., _„'J liLLf. �UlIIE.'J�i�'r
Central_ Roofing Company, has entered into a purchase agreement
with the Ceco Corporation to purchase the north five acres for our
new corpo:ate headquarters.
We intend to build a small office building on the site in the near
future and will use the balance of the property for storage of our
general materials and equipment.
We tiave submitted an application to the City of Fridley to use the
property and as part of that application we have agreed to land-
scape the grass boulevard area in front of the existing screening
wall and to install an underground lawn sprinkling system. This
will certainly enhance the existing lawn area and entry way to the
property. Our new neighbor to the south has also agreed to land-
scape their front boulevard area.
Pact of our business requires that at the end of each work day we
park one to three small roofing trucks on our site which will have
a limited amount of roofing asphalt left in the trucks. These
trucks will be parked over night on the very westerly (rear)
portion of the site.
In an ;_`�c:t to help t.:a �?ry e•-al�at� a��y p�ssih?e o�or whi�h may
5e er�itted from these trucks, we conducted an independent test on
April 27, and 28, 1987. The test was designed and monitored by
Twin City Testing Company, of Minneapolis, Minnesota. On thess
dates we brought two of our trucks down Main Street and drove onto
the site and parked the trucks in the rear of the site. Both
trucks were totally filled with asphalt and were at their highest
operatino temperature. This was an extreme situation which would
never occur in that any truck which comes back to our property is
never full and is in a cooling stage. On each test day, Twin City
Testing positioned" three people on the front lawns of the homes
along Main Street directly across the street from the Ceco
property. These people monitored any detection of odor as the
trucks passed on Main Street and turned onto the site. The
�
sp #s�-i� 1L
Central Rr�ofing
results of the test, which were presented to the City of Fridley,
indicated that if and when an odor was detected by the panel
members that the odor lasted no more than two to four seconds and
only as the truck passed along Main Street. Once the truck was on
the property there was no detection of odor.
�� Because our application to the City of Fridley to use the property
� requires a public hearing, the City felt that the test should be
repeated so that any City Council Member who wished to be present,
Lisa Campell, City of Fridley Code Enforcement Planner, and any
resident adjoining the property could have an opportunity to judge
for themselves that the tr�cks do not present any odor problem.
Therefore, we invite you to be present on August 19, at 3:30 P.M.
wl�en our comr:�r�� •�il� sg.�ir. Lrir� r;,r�P t-.:�-fis cinwn Mai.n StreeC
and park them on the Ceco site.
I want to assure you that our company is not a manufacturer of any
type of asphalt products. We will use the property for our gen-
eral offices, sheet metal shop and for the storage of general
equipment and products such as roofing felt and roof insulation.
I have enclosed a brochure describing our company which has been
in business since 1929. Our quality work has been a part of
numerous landmark buildings throughout the metropolitan area. In
the Fridley area, we have played a major role in expansions for
companies such as Lamaur, Medtronics, Target, Longview Fiber and
Donaldson's Department Store. We are excited about locating our
corporate headquarters in Fridley and feel that we wi11 be a
quality and responsible neighbor.
If you have any concerns or questions, please feel free to call me
at my office.
Very truly yours,

= Subjective odor recordings were noted by TCT personnel
a[ one minute intervals. In addition, observations of
background odors and odors not related to CRC activity
were no[ed.
° On lvednesday, there was no CRC activity. Three
cold tank trucks were parked at the rear of the site.
TCT personnel were stationed as per above and con-
ducted a one-hour odor observation program. This
was done to determine other odor sources potentially
affecting the adjacent residential area.
The above survey is subjec[ive and no quantification was possible, due [o
time limitations and other complicating factors. However,` the suzvey is
similar to odor panel methodologies uCilized by the Piinneso[a Pollution
Control Agency (AfPCA). The use of personal odor detecti.on does effectiyely
represent how adjacent residents wouid perceive odor problems associated
with the proposed CRC activity. ,
Durirg the three-day survey, the only asphaltic odors noted by TCT personnel
positioned along Main Street were associated with the tank truck passing by
the personnel. The odors were moderate but only transient (perhaps 2[0 3
seconds). With the :ank [rucks parked on site, no noticeable asphaltic
odors were noted by the personnel positioned along Main Stree[.
In addition to the survey for odors along Main Stree[, TCT personnel made
general odor observations relative to the Rub6er Research Elastomers, Inc.
and other ind�strial activities adjacent to ihe site. Some sulphitic, grain
or food processing, and solvent odors were noted and these were also noted
periodically by the personnel as Chey conducted the survey along Main
Street. The sulphitic odors appeared to originate from Rubber Research
Elascomers, Inc. and were observed by TCT personnel to be more noticeable
and irritatir.g than the asphalt odors, when observed.
In general, climatic condi[ions during the survey were clear, warm and
windy, wich winds ranging upward to 20 to 30 mph and qui[e va�iable in
direction. These conditions are fairly typical of summer conditions•
Higher temperatures and humidi[ies associated vith summer periods should not
significantly affect odor emissions from the site.

�� � TCT personnel also qualitatively assessed the degree and extent of odor
emissions dow�nwind from the parked heated tank trucks. With strong winds,
the odor was detected consistently no more than approximately 50 meters
downwind. When the trucks were unheated, only faint odors were detected and
only within a few feet of Ghe trucks.
Based on the above cesults, TCT's professional opinion is that those odor
emissions (from CRC activities) likely to generate residential complaiots
are only those associated uith the passage of heated tank trucks onto or out
ef the site. These emissions vould be transient and infrequent. It should
be noted that [he tank trucks used during the survey contained more asphalt
and were hotter than would be typical, according to CRC. Therefore, the
trucks would be expected to have generated a higher level of emissions than
would be the case during regular operations.
This opinion in no way implies or indicates any guaran[ee or warranty
relative to future odor complaints from the residents or other businesses in
the area or to [he outcome of any regulatory decisions. The cesulta are
only applicable to the conditions, dates and times of the testing programs.
Other odor sources are present in [he area and are likely to impact the
residential area. In addition, unique meteorologic condicions highly
different from those during the survey may affect odor impact on the
residential area.

Septanber 11, 1987
12F�ARDII�: Willi�n Henley, L.S. #87-d8
On July 28, 1987 Mr. William Henley made application to the City for a
subdivisiori of his Fxoperty located at 6300 &�ker Av�ue N.E. Mr. Henley's
proposal is to split �f the mrtherly 60 feet � his lot in order to create
a new building site which he would sell to a prospective buildez. Prior to
the official application, I strongly recommended to Mt. Henley that he
upgcade his lot split to create at le3st a 68 foot wide lot which would be
closer to the Code requirenent of 75 feet. Mr. Henley rejected this
suggestim stating that he reeded the additional setback frcm the north face
of his garage in orc3er to pcwide vehiculaz acoess to his yard.
After further staff reviEw and an orrsite inspection of the property, I sent
Mr. Henle� the attaciied letter, c�ted August 11, 1987, strongly advising that
he revise his subdivisim to prwide f� a 68 foot lot. i pointed out that
the majority of the lots in the ar� have 90 foot frontages and the proposal
for 60 feet would certainly not be consistent with the other lots on the
block. Mr. Henle� did not tespond to our request. On September 10, 1987 I
phoned the Henley's and spoke to Mrs. Henley regarding our reservations
concerning the lot split. In addition to the width problen I related to her,
addition3l conoerns raised by the Public Works Departrnent ooncerning drair�ge
in the ara3. The proposed new lot is a large depressed area which is a
natural storm drainage collection and percolation area. Public Works
suggested that if a haLSe wese to be allowed to be constructed on this lot
that it should be located as faz forward toaazd street grade as possible to
leave sufficient are3 for peroolation. �e request is further oomglicated b�
the fact that it is necessary to average setbacks aocording to Code. Based
upon this averaging requirener�t the proposed house would need to be set back
approximately 60 fcet.
4Wo neighbors have also expressed their disapprwal for the petition. Mcs.
I+i�chowicz who resides just nortl� of the proposed sglit will be at-the meeting
ta.voioe her opposition. "-
Becaise � the prohlens associated with the lot split I offered to zeturn
their aFplication fee if they would withdraw the application prior to the
Planning Commission. Mrs. Henle� stated that they were intent upon
prooeeding with the lot split and ti�at the� did not desire to d�ange the lot
split request in any fashion. Based upon the negative aspects of this
subdivisim staff reoaun� deniai.

RE: Lot Sglit at 6300 Baker Street N.E.
Dear Mr. Henley:
Staff has reviewed yout lot split application and completed an on-site
inspectiai of the property. At this time I must anphasize that your request
is not oonsistent with City Codes.
As I told you priot to your application the City Code requires 75 feet
frontage for a build3hle lot. Although you have the �utential to spl it off
68 feet for the new lot, you have chosen to ask f ot a 60 foot frontage lot
sgtit apprwal. Your stated reason was to allcw access into your rear yard
on the mrth side of your hane. In as muc2� as there is no driveway to your
rear yard and you do have roughly 60 feet of open yard on the south of your
hane, I would strongly adviae that you zevise your subdivision request to
prwide a 68 foot lot.
It is possible to obtain a lot width variance along with a lot split
approval, howev�, me important aspect of such apprwal is the wmpatibility
with the surramding neic�orhood. Our revia� of the surramdin9 lats shoaed
all large parcels witl� mainly 90 foot frontages.
In closing, I am rot sure that ev� a 68 foot wide lot
meet with Coimcil's apprwal but past experience shows
would not. Pl�se remnsider your petitiai and advise m
Sinoerely,
Jeanes Robinson

on this block would

APPROVED AS AMENDED.
l. CONSIDERATION OF LOU LUNDGREN'S LETTER OF CREDIT
Plr. Lundgren stated he had several things going, but at this time does not
have a financing commitment. He has received from Miller & Schroeder the
conditions under which Lhey will sell bonds which includes taking the risx
out of the construcLion aspect. The construction lender would need to include
a breakeven occupancy. Lznders do not like to do this; however, he is workiub
with a local hank to undertake this condition. This should happen next week.
Mr. Lundgren has been approached by the Towle Company and will help make the
project work. They have indicated two persons who may be interested ir,
financing, but they have not yet responded. Other avenues are availaole
under the same terms as before but they require someone to pick up a lar�e
amount of equity. Mr, Lundgren stated he was closer to an agreement anu
very optimistic.
HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETING, AUGUST 13, 1987 PAGE L ��-
Mr. Schnabel asked Mr. Lundgren how feasible he thought it would be to meet t
the requirements of Miller 6 Schroeder.
Mr. Lundgren thought it was feasible, but just had not worked. He stated
that he could show staff his numbers. There is money available, but the
terms are not easy. yr. Lundgren stated that he is detezmined to get done
and will do what it takes to accomplish it.
Mr. Meyer asked what the area market is for housing.
Mr. Lundgcen indicated that, when Mr. Maxfield was here, there was a marxet
here while perhaps there was not in other ateas. The Towle Company approached
him because they are convinced there is a market heie and Towle is a very
substantial, good firm.
Mr. Commers reminded Mi. Lundgren that still pending before the commission
is the revocation of a letter of credit which has been and remains tabled.
Since no other proposal has been brought before the commission, this item
remains tabled.
5. CONSIDERATIOy OF LAKE POINTE PAD A EXCAVATION CNANGE ORDER
PSr. Robertson reported that last Wednesday he was notified by the project
engineei that an error was discovered for relocated Pad A, which was initiated
in April/Ma��. Subterranean Engineering was asked to redesign the Pad to the
south so the earth work would equal ou*_ to the original. Tllrough a series of
correspondence between Subterranean and Sunde, the exira cost was not found
until Enebak was about to begin work. In the meantime, in Julp, k'oodbridge
had approved the relocated Pad A. He�said that he met with Mr. Sunde and Mr.
Herrick. The choices were to: 1) proceed with a modilied °ad A and later
assign extra cost, 2) order Enebak to stop all work and pap him to wait for
HRA decision, or 3) order Enebak to proceed with modifications of a reduced
Pad A to eliminate the extra cost. After consulting with Mr. Herrick, Woodbridge
was notified of the error and asked to make a decision. They were quite
reluctant to approve the extra cost. -The letzer of July 10 states they would
not agree with the extra cost. He asked Mr. Sunde and Mr. Mindess [o be here
this evening to give a more detailed description of what happened. The
Commission has before them a recommendation to proceed with Change Order �i4,
dated August 10, for $38,�50.
Mr. Mindess stated that in calculating the volume of earth work they allowed
no more than normal. But, this job is unique in that it has extra large pads to
allow Woodbridge flexibility in positioning buildings. The error in
calculation affects the east half of the south portion of Pad A. Also, when
digging began in this area, peat was found which changes the volume. To
his undeistanding, based on the borings, Subterranean drew an excavation
contour and had a contour plan prior to bidding. This is an unusual project
because some of the other buildings on the west portion of the site were
suggested to be constructed on piles, but are going to be built on footinbs.
Mr. Prairie indicated that change orders are totalling �222,000 and asked
if the work was nearly completed or could they expect additional chan�e
orders.
�`s HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETING, AUGUST 13, 1987 YAGE 3
Mr. Sunde indicated that the only possible change order he could foresee
would deal with excess material at the end of the job and that Eneuacn
maintains it is nat their responsibility to naulit away. Approximately
600,000 yards of dirt are in this project. The original contract stateu it
is the contractor's responsibility to dispose of it off the site, For
some reason, the arbitrator says if you have to impozt sand, we pay to
for importing sand. If maierial is to be hauled away,We would pay to haul it
away. There is a difference in interpretation. Mr. Sunde felt tnere woula
not be a significant excess of materials on the job. Any excess materials
would more than likely be black dirt or organics. The position is that tney
will not pay to haul away excess materials. He felt the job woulti Galance.
If there is excess black dirt on the site, iY can be left there ana the City
will use it on other projects. There must be 6 inches of top soil on the site.
Mr. Prairie questioned if this would not have happened if Woodbridge had put
up the building in January.
Mr. Sunde stated that if a definite building is going in, tnere is no need to
have the over-size pads. When looking at the section at the south end of
Pad A, there is about 5-6 feet of poar quality sand, S-6 feet of black dirt,
below that is clay that had to be removed to support a foundation.
Mr. Prairie stated there are four contracts and asked when they would ue
completed.
Mr. Sunde felt they would be done by the end of October. Enebacx plans to
get the turf cover down to cut erusion.
Mr. Burch indicated that the landscape contractor plans to finish tnis fall
also.
Mr. Meyer asked for clarification of what the $2.50 per yara for soil
excavation by backhoe would include.
Mr. Sunde stated that the layer of organic soils must be removea which will be
done by backhoe. This accounts for the excavation of soils tnat cannot oe
bulldozed and is only in the extended area of the pad.
Mr, Meyer stated that on Change Order ll3 the agreement is to buy sand at
$1.00 per yard and compact and replace at 25¢ per yard. Where does this come
in?
P1r. Sunde stated this was the price agreed upon for sand mining for the notel
pad. For Pad A, the hole can be filled with compacted clay at a very high
density. The reason is that the building for Pad A is a low tise builditig
with a lower footing pressure.
Mr. Meyer asked at what rate the clay goes back to fi11 the hole, $Z.50 per
yard?
Mr. Sunde stated it would basically be $1.25 for excavation and replacement.
The big hole will be dug out and filled back in for a total of $1.25 per yarti.
The organics would be dug ouL and replaced with something else for �2.50 yaru.
Mr. Herrick stated the change order should state Lhat this price includes
removal, replacement and compaction of materials. The assumption is that it
would be done according to the plans and specifications, but it would not hurt
to refer to a specific portion of the plans and specs.
HOUSIhG S REDEVELOPMEhT AUTHORITY MEETING, AUGUST 13, i987 PAGE 4
Mr. Sunde stated their intent is not to pay for putting materials back in.
He will clarify this question on the change order.
MOTION BY MR. MEYER, SECONDED BY MS. SCHNABEL, TO APPROVE CHAnGE ORDER 4i4
WITH THE ASSUMPTION OF PRICE OF EXCAVATION OUT AND MATERIAL IN IS $2.50 PER
YARD AND THAT ADDITIONAL CLARIFICATION BE MADE TO THE GONTRAGTOR AS TO THE
SPECIFICATIONS OF WNAT THE MATERIAL IS AhD TO BE COMPACTED.
UPOn A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON COMMERS DECLARED THE MOTION
CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
6. INFORMATION ON LAKE POIRTE DETENTION POi�D - YOTENTIAL CHANGE ORDER ANll
IRRIGATIOfi
Mr. Robertson stated this is now a consideration of change order.
request from Woodbridge for two additional change orders. Ttem ll6 on tnE
agenda concerns the change order for design and finishing of the retentiori
ponds. Mr. Burch estimates in consultation with the landscape architect that
the change in the retention ponds will improve the appearance and save
from $30,000-$50,000 in actual costs. Members were referred to correspontience
dated August 10 from Jon McClure requestin� the change order.
Mr, Burch thought the change is somethingthat would be dr_sireable. This item
was discussed several weeks ago. After discussing with Woodbrid�e, they agreed
with the change.
Mr. Herrick indicated his impression is that Woodbridge is trying to kee�
costs down. This is one area where costs uill be reduced as well as the
next proposed item which is consistent.
MOTION BY MR. PRAIRIE, SECOrDED BY MS. SCHNABEL, TO AYYROVE THE CHANGE
ORDER WITH RESPECT TO THE POnDING.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON COMMERS DECLARED THE MOTI01
CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
Mr. Robertson indicated that the change order regaidin� irrigation is to
omit the irrigation in the original contract. We received the request in
writing in a letter of August 10, 1987, from Jon McClure to John Flora.
Staff recommends that this change ordei not be consideted based on the City
Council's expression that they wished the areas to be seeded and irrigated
to prevent erosion problems and for aesthetics. Theestimated savings is
520,000.
Mr.Aerrick stated the original plan that was submitted by Ernst provided
there was to be irrigation on all undeveloped areas. Earlier there was
discussion to eliminate irrigation from Pad C assuming it would be built on
this fall. To his understanding, anything not built upon would be irrigated,
including Pad C. When asked if this was included in the plan approved by
Woodbridge, staff provided a positive answer,
Mr. Robertson stated that the temporary irrigation costs about $20,000. The
entire area would have pipes. As buildings were constructed, the pipes and
heads would be removed.
- HDllSInG & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETING, AUGUST 13, 1987 PAGE 5
Mr. Robertson stated that the intent is that during the 15-year development
project the City wanted a good ground cover to teduce wind and water erosion
until the project was completed, hater for irriga2ion is furnished by the City.
Ms. Schnabel asked if there were other ways to accomplish the same end.
Mr. Robertson stated the irrigation was felt to be the most cost effective
way to maintain. Other methods are labor intensive which is very costly.
Mr. Burch stated there are two ground covers - seed and sod. The sod is
along the boulevards with automatic irrigation. No debate exists over this.
The other areas are seeded areas where building will be built in the future
and that is where the question arises. The intent was to have those areas
irrigated to have a green area and to have it look good and to prevent
erosion. On the original contract, all that was included except Pad C.
Several weeks ago, the commission considered a change order where irrigation
was added to Pad C because there is no commitment to build. Tne reGuest now
is to eliminate irrigation on all seeded areas where buildings are to go.
Ernst Associates, when asked about the savings, estimated it to be $20,000 -
half to be paid b}� the City and half by the HRA.
CIt. Herrick indicated there is an argument about the payment. If the City's
view prevails, the City would pay half and Woodbridge would pay half.
Woodbridge wants the City to pay all. By eliminating irrigation, Woodbridge
appears to be aLtempting to reduce costs on a non-essential item.
Ms. Schnabel felt that $20,000 on a 15-year proposal was not a big item.
MOTIOn BY PIS. SCHNABEL, SECOnDED BY MR. PRAIRLE> TO RECEIVE THE LETTER
ADDHESSED TO JOHn FLORA, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS, DATE➢ AUGUST 10, 1987,

CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
PIr. Meyer asked if there was any legality that the letter was addressed to
Mr. Flora rather than the HRA.
Mr.Herrick stated that this is not a concern. Mr. Flora is appointed as
engineer for the HRA so he can transmit documents to the commission.
MOTION BP MS. SCHNABEL, SECONDED BY MR. PRAIRIE, TO CONSIDER THc, REQUESI'
ArD TO DENY THE REQUEST TO DELETE THE IRRIGATION CONTRACT THE YIYES ARU
WATER SYSTEMS On PAD SITES.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIAPERSON COMMERS DECLAREU THE MOTIOti
CARRIED UNANIMOUSLF.
Mr. Commers requested Mr.Herrick instruct Woodbridge in writing what the
commission has decided.
HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETZNG, AUGUST 13, i987 PAGE 6 �
Ms. Schnabel stated that she had not yet been to the Lake Pointe area and
requested arrangements be made for an on-site tour of the area so that the
commission would be more aware of what they are dealing with.
Mr. Commers agreed that a tour would enhance their understanding of the
issues and asked Mr. Ro6ertson to make arrangements fot a tour of the area
prior to the next HRA meeting.
Mr. Robertson stated another area of concern is access to the site when the
work is done. Should the area be open, bariicaded, or closed with a gate
which can be opened by a key? The set-up needs to allow the City to finish
their work and allow Woodbridge to bring in potential customers.
Mr.Herrick stated the City's liability would be the same as other public
properties. The City has umbrella coverage. The greatest liability is now
when there are holes and mounds of dirt. After leveling is done, the
risk is not any greater than in the parks but there are chances of vandalism,
theft, etc.
Mr. Commers requested Mr. Robertson to develop a proposal and present to
the commission.
Mr. Prairie stated that in the public hearings with home owners there are
certain things they could use.
Mr. Burch stated that homeowners can use the walkways.
Mr. Herrick recommended that the road not be open to general traffic.
2. COhSIDERATION OF RICE CF
COSTS
dITY ENGINEERING FEES
Mr. Robertson indicated that along with the detail cost estimates requested by
HRP., he had asked SEH to include other items in the area of T.H. 65 and Moore
Lake area that are on the agenda for improvement. Mr. Robertson felt there
might be some cost savings if other portions of the project were under[aken
simultaneously or in sequence with each other. The components as included in
the agenda total from $L15,�00 to-$127,000 wi�th no package di.scount. The
commission was asked to consider the Rice Creek Road package. It is [he desire
o fthe Cit}�Council that this be done.as soon as possible with the intersection
between Old Central and T.H. 65 which is under conttact under SEH. This is
necessary to state Rice Creek Road immediately [o serve the Moore Lake Commons
which was approved b} Cit} Council last month. This includes both the estimated
fees of $42,000 to $52,500 for plans, specifications, etc., and $50,500 for
construction related services.
Ms. Schnabel asked if it was common practice to take saiary rates and multiply
by 2.1.
Mr. Meyer stated this is low. Generally the factor of 2.5 is used.
Mr. Robertson suggested staff be auihorized to negotiate a package discount
if SEH were to do more of this than just Rice Creek Road.
HOUSIhG & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETING, AUGUST 13, 1987 PAGE 7
Mr. Robertson stated that the construction would not be done but the
engineeiing �QUld proceed this fall. We have a preliminary design for Rice
Creek Road and this proposal is for detaiZed designs. The plan provides
two lattes for traffic in each direction plus an additional left turn lane.
Mr. Burch stated that the future plans will consider turning Old Central into a
parkway.
Mr. Robertson stated they have looked at the estimates for Rice Creek Road
and asked if staff should try to negotiate a package.
The question was raised as to why staff was working with SEH on this project
rather than another firm.
Mr. Burch indicated the City started working with SEH on this project because
of their expertise on this type of project. Their engineer had formerly worked
with MnDOT and knows their requirements. They are the experts on intersection
design. Staff had interviewed other companies; but SEH is best qualified.
rI0TI0n BY PfR. MEYER, SECONDED BY MR. PRAIRIE, TO APPROVE THE PROYOSAL AS
GIVEn.
UPOr A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSOn COMMERS DECLARED THE MOTION
CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
3. COASIDERATION OF UNTGERSIT] AVENUE (T.H. 47) hIEDZAN TREATP1EhT
Mr. Robertson stated that at the July meeting, Mr. Barry Warner presented a
number of alternatives for treatment of inedians. Staff was asked to review
the options and come back with a recommendation. Staff tried to consider the
trade off in additional investment in landscaping and maintenance implications.
Fhat staff proposes after looking at the twelve alternatives is a scheme where
an additional investment is put in at the intersections, but to save cosis
this be confined to the intersection. Between intersections it is recommended to
proceed with a bit more visual variety th�ough shrubs and wildflowers. MnDO'1
is working with native flowers, which do not have the
mowing and maintenance costs, are very hardy, provide better moisture retention,
and add color. These are recommended for demonstration sections. The ne�ative
part is that, if the entire median were done in wildflohers, there may
be a perception by some of the public that it is untended and wi1d. At this
time, the wildflocaers would be interspersed with turf.
Mr. Prairie asked about weed control with wildflowers.
Mr. Robertson sTated that once the wildflowers are establish they tend to
choke out weeds. Schematics of the designs were presented. The intersection
treatments would extend only as far as the turn lanes which is where traffic
slows and treatments would get the most attention. The recommendation is a
combination of treatments and staff have no costs at this time.
HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AllTHOAITY MEETING, AUGUST 13, 1987 PAGE 8
Mr. Robertson stated the demonstration intersections would be from 57th to ;
63rd and from 73rd to Osborne for a total of 4 intersections. This can then
be evaluated to see if we like it. If the commission likes the recommended
design, staf£ will go back and get the costs.
Ms. Schnabel stated she liked doing a number of different treatments, but
felt it could get too busy.
Mr. Robertson stated a lower cost alternative is to plant the medians exlusively
in wildflowers which could be achieved.
P1r. Prairie indicated comments on the park for the first few yeais was that
the wildflowers did not look good.
Mr. Burch noted that after efforts to disk and reseed,the area looks better.
People that know wildflowers like the look.
Ms. Schnabel stated that new turf would be an improvement to a lot of people.
Mr. Herrick indicated the other side is maintenance. MnDOT mows 2 or 3 times
per summer.
Mr. Burch stated the city took over maintenance this year and the appearance
was better.
Mr. Robertson stated that the fence between 63td and 69th was painted black
to see what the impact was. The designs included along University will be
used in other areas also.
Ms. Schnabel stated she would like to see a mix of trees and that they be
placed away from traffic.
Mr. Robertson stated that the schematic used a variety of trees. The
design has trees in clusters Hith different trees being used in each
cluster.
MOTION BY MR. PRAIRIE, SECONDED BY MS. SCHnABEL, FOR STAFF TO GO FORWARD '1'0
THE NEXT STEP WITH THE UNIVERSITY AVENUE PROJECT.
Mr. Meyer asked if Jersey barriers would be included in the urban
section.
Mr. Robertson stated barriers would be used to protect the trees but
would not run the entire length.
Mr. Burch stated the barriers could be poured in place, could be
painted, or constructed with treated wood.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON COMMERS DECLARED THE MOTIOn
CARRiED UnANIMOUSLY.
4. CONSIDERATION OF COMPLETION OF PASCHKE PONDING AREA
Mt. Commers requesCed an update on this item.
HOUSING & REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEETING, AUGUST i3, 1987 YAGE 9
Mr.Herrick indicated that in discussing the issue with Mr. Burch, if he
is not able to get the problem resolved and if he can document what Mr.
Paschke has done does not meet what the plans called for, then we proceed.
As long as there is evidence to establish that what Mr. Paschke has done does
not coriespond with the plans� he suggested someone else do the work. At this
point a decision must be made.
MOTION BY MR. MEYER, SECONDED BY MS. SCHNABEL, TO AllTHORIZE STAFF TO GO
FORWARD AND AWARD BIDS TO FINISH PONDING TO THE LOW BIDDER IF THE CITY
DOES NOT REACH A SATISFACTORY AGREEMENT WITH MR. PASCHKE.
Mr. Meyer indicated that the letter of March 6, 1987, is an agreement
to do a numbers of things, including a hedge, roll up fire door, and
overflow control structures. Completion should include all items.
Mr. Burch stated that the only things in the bids includes grading
and seeding of the pond and construction of an overflow.
Mr. Commers asked staff to report on all items at next month's
meeting.
UYOn A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSOP COMMERS DECLARED THE MOTION
CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
7. I�FORMATIOn ON CIVIC CENTER BI-LEVEL PARKING RAMP
Mr. Robertson stated this is an information item. The commission and City
Council have acted on the preliminary approval of the concept. Borman
Associates are proceeding with estimates for a parking ramp along with the
redesign and remodeling of the Civic Center. The estimate for the ramp is
$765,000. Mr. Robertson stated he checked with several independent sources
and their rate was essentially $8,000 to $8,500 per stall. The cost is for
excavation below ground.
Mr. Commers questionned the financing of the ramp.
Mr. Robertson said the records indicated that the HRA intended to participate.
Mr. Pribyl stated there are no assessments at this time.
Mr. Prairie asked if there was a parking problem by the clinic.
Mr. Robertson did not think there tias but there is a problem outside the
Civic Center.
Mr. Prairie asked the status of the clinic.
Mr. Pribyl stated the clinic has one year to go on their option on that land.
Otherwise, they lose their option.
Mr. Meyer felt the figure of $7,500 per parking stall was a high estimate.
Mr. Robertson stated he had gotten a rule oF thumb figure of $8,000-58,500
for the same thing.
HOUSIIG 5 REDEVELOPMEhT AUTHORITY MEETING, AUGUST 13, 1987 PAGE i0
Mr. Robertson stated that, in the development district, there are some cross i�
agreements to provide parking for the office building. '
PIr. Pribyl stated that part of the original agreement is to provide a certain
number of parking spots. The City has provided the appropriate number of
spots that are in the agreement. The parking ramp itself would be in the tax
increment district.
Mr. Commers stated the commission needs to know how the ramp would be
financed.
Mr. Pribyl stated he was going through the accounts and taking every
expenditure and applying it to a source. The money for the ramp would come
from an unrestricted pool.
Mr. Commers asked about funding for the city hall expansion.
Mr. Pribyl indicated that the City has set aside funds for City Hall.
8. CLAIMS
Pir. Pribyl stated that the commission would be acting on Claims 4f1631-1646.
Mr. Commers asked if the City has an on-going trial balance for HRA.
Mr. Pribyl stated the city has the information and could prepare a summary
trial balance for the commission.
P1r. Commers requested staff to prepare a summary trial balance for the HRA.

UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON SVANDA DECLARED THE MOTION
CARRIED UNAnIMOUSLY.
1. Status Report on Anoka County and Met Council Funding
Ms. Wicklacz statedthat the 50� per household rebate from the Metropolitan
Council had ended and the $4/ton program ended in June. The City has
.zceived their last paynent irom that progrars.� 3he Boj :,couts -
received $243.00 for 60.75 tons of newspaper collected back to September
1986; S.O.R.T. collected 56.19 tons of recycleables including used oil
for $224.76 which is kept by the City and used toward S.O.R.T.; and the
curbside recycling program collected 93 tons and got $372.24. The total
amount received was about $840.
Ms. Wicklacz indicated that the County has hired a SoliZ Waste Abate:�ent
gpecialist to assist Norn Shifer L
The Anoka County Board is reviewing the master plan on
August 25. Ms. Wicklacz will attend that meeting. If accepted, the plan
will go to the Metropolitan Council. The funds fron zbatenent are
being distributed to the counties and the coUnties are then disbursing the
monies. Fridley should receive the same amount as before although staff
are trying to increase the amount. Ms. Wicklacz did not think Fridley
would get additional grant awards.
On September 2, Anoka County is planning to get together a Solid Waste
Task Force which Ms. Wicklacz plans to attend. If she cannot, a
commission member may be designated. Anoka County Cormi�sioner Paui
ticCarton is the chairman of the task force.
ENVIRONMENTAL OIiALITY COMMISSION MEETING. AUGUST 18, 1987 YAGE 2
Mr. Wellan asked if this included the Elk River facility.
Ms. Wicklacz stated that this is actually a part of the master plan to bet
other cities on line and Fridley, Columbia Heights and Sprin� Lake Park are
there to show that recycling programs can work and give support.
Ms. Wicklacz is in an association for recycling managers with members
from other cities in the area who get together monthly to discuss possible
programs and what others fiave done. Ms. Wicklacz stated that Super Cycle
is providing service for most of the netropolitan area.
Ms. Wicklacz stated she would be meeting tomorrow with three other
recipients of a puhlic information grant to do in-school training. West
Hennepin, Columbia Heights and Champlin are all doing something in their
school districts. They wi11 meet to share notes ao a� not to duplicate what
others are doing.
2. 1987-1988 Fridley Budget for Recycling
Ms. Wicklacz distributed copies of the Recycling Program Grants Budget,
which includes the household rebate and tonnage re6ate. These funds were
included because the City should receive a like amount through the county.
Also included are two grants received by the City. The DPS Grant includes
salaries for energy related items also.
Mr. Wellan asked about the code enforcement.
Ms. Wicklacz indicated that this is part of the DPS Grant of which half is
for recycling and half is for energy. The portion for code enforcement is
for doing inspections on rental builcings to cee i� chey are er.erg� efficient.
Taking this into consideration, the actual budgeted amount for recyclinb
is approximately $40,000.
3. Update on Curbside Recycling Developments
Ms. Wicklacz distributed copies of the flyers that were mailed and the
new logo. Signs are being made up for each area indicating the Fridays
pick ups are scheduled for that area. Quite a number of people have
shown an interest in getting signs. At this time, the signs will be made
as they were before .unless another method can be found.
Ms. Wicklacz indicated a problem continues with missed pick ups. Super
Cycle missed s neighborhood. They were called and made aware of the
problem and when Super Cycle returned, they went to the wrong area.
Ms. Wicklacz stated she had sent the names and addresses of those people
to Super Cycle and has requested they be sent a letter of apology. It
is important to maintain interest in the program. A follow up will be
done with the block captain to see if the letters are sent.
Mr. Nielson noted that a hauler also comes through on Friday and asked
if there was any confusion about what is to be recycled and what is to
be hauled away as garbage.
Ms. Wicklacz indicated that recycleables are usually in paper bass and
the haulers have been notified that the =ecycling program exists.

' Ms. Wicklacz stated two posters are being developed to be put up at
� Holiday, Target, area churches, etc., to inform people about the probram
and to increase interest in the program.
Mr. Svanda asked if a follow up was planned.
Ms. Wicklacz stated she was planning to do something in the fall. At
this time, she is working on missed pick ups so the recyclin� probram
does not lose people. Something will be put in the fall newsletter alou�
with something on composting.
Ms. Wicklacz distributed copies of a flyer from Anoka County containinb
information on recycling services available in tne county and tne materials
accepted. Some of the informaLion on the handout had chan�ed or was
incorrect, and Ms. Wicklacz stated she would work to have tne informatioii
updated.
Ms. Wicklacz stated Lhe compost site has been waterea daily and tutneti
once every week or so. An area church is having a grass and leaf pick up
in ihe fall and had asked if they could bring those materials to the
S.O.R.S. site. Ms. Wicklacz has told them they could.
4. Update on S.O.R.T. Developments
Ms. Wicklacz stated she is working to get a sign put uQ for S.O.R.S. A
proposed sketch of the sign was shown to the members. It is felt tt�at
a good location for the sign is where the Anoka County sign is but placed
lower.
Ms. Wicklacz stated she is planning to sen@ out a flyer for S.u.R.T. to
target neighborhoods and apartment dwellers.
Mr. Nielson stated he haQ been at the site and felt it looked �unky and
in need of mowing.
Ms. Wicklacz indicated she is working to get better oarrels for tnem. Tne
City is to do the mowing, and she will check to see what is beinb dorie.
5. Discussion on City Involvement in MPCA Household Hazardous Waste Program
Mr. Svanda indicated that the MPCA is working on putting to�etner application
materials and developing the criteria by which to ranA cities on the basis
of their proposals for a household hazardous waste collection pro�ram.
Initial collections are planned for the fall. After an ay�ro�riation is
received from the legislature, the MPCA wi11 need to get a contract for
transportation and disposal.
Ms. Wicklacz stated she had received calls from residents wantin� to
know where they could dispose of their household hazardous wastes.
Mr. Svanda stated this varies depending on the material. Some wastes, sucn
as leftover paint, can be dried and disposed of with the garbage. If a
question arises, the callers can be referred to Susan Rid�ely at the MYCA
or the staff dealing with household hazardous waste. They would snare
whatever information they have.
ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY COMMISSION MEEIING, AUGUST 18, 1987 YAG£ 4
Ms. Wicklacz stated she would like to put somethin� in the newsletter.
Residents have also been calling uanting to know how to dispose of used
batteries.
Mr. Svanda stated that starting January 1, i988, anyone selling batteries
will have to accept used batteries. Also on January 1, 1988, anyone
selling oil must either collect used oil or post a sign indicatin� where
used oil can be taken. He recommended contacting these places and havin�
them post a sign indicating Fridley's collection site for used oil.
Mr. Svanda stated the MPCA has staf£ who work with companies who recycle
used batteries and work with haulers to pick up used batteries; however,
used batteties cannot be put on the curb. The most difficult hazardous
waste to get rid of would be 6anned pesticides. If is very difficult to
find someone who wi11 take banned pesticides.
Mr. Svanda recommended that Ms. Wicklacz keep in contact with the staff
and work through Ms. Ridgely's office to get what information they have.
This may ensure that Fridley is on ti�e mailing list when the requirements
for the hazardous waste program are sent. In addition to financial
support, a requirement may be what other support will be provided and what
will be done to carry the program forward. The M�CA is lookin� at 20
collections per year. If Fridley cannot do this in the fall, other
programs will be conducted next spring and surtuner.
6. Other Business
a. Ms. Wicklacz distributed copies of an article on the Twin Cities and
their goals for waste management which was printed in the Aubust i5S7
World Wastes.
b. Mr. Wellan asked if any recommendations had been received for new
members for the commission.
Ms. Wicklacz indicated the City Council would recommend a person for
membership and she had heard of no action at this iime.

VAR #87-29
A. PUBLIC PURPOSE SERVED BY REQUIREP1ENT:
Section 205,07.3, D, 2a, requires a side yard of ten (10) feet between
any living area and side property lines.
1
�i
APPEALS COt7MISSIOP� PIEETIFJ6, SEPTEtdBER 1 1987 PAGE 2
Public purpose served 6y this requirement is to maintain a minimum of
20 feet between liviag areas in adjacent structures and 15 feet between
garages and livi�g areas in adjacent structures to reduce exposure to
conflagration of fire. It is also to allow for aesthetically pleasing
open areas around residential structures.
B. STATED NARDSNIP:
"Because of existing layout of house, proposed location of addition is
the only feasible location. In 1977 iahen we built our house we had no
children. �Jow, with three growing children we feel the need for a
faMily room, an all-purpose room for family activities. The addition
of this room would fulfill these needs.
"This location is necessary because of existing decks and swinming pool.
Also, existing rooms (dining and living room) would not allow desired
access to proposed family room."
C. ADI4IIJISTRATIVE STAFF REVIEW:
The petitioner would like to add living space on behind the existinq
garage. The existing garage is approximately 19.7 feet from the home
to the north. It is very important that we know exactly how far the
north wall is from the existing north lot line because there is 6 ft.
easement located along the north line. Therefore, the petitioner has
been requested to provide a survey verifying that dimension.
If the Appeals Commission acts on this variance request, the staff has
no stipulations to recommend until a survey is available.
Mr. Clark stated tfiis variance request was discussed at the last meeting.
At that time, it was decided that the petitioner would have to readvertise
because the measurements were different than what were anticipated--a side
yard set6ack from 1� feet to 4.4, feet rather than from 10 ft. to 6 feet,
because of the way the house and gara9e were located on the lot.
Mr. Clark stated there was also a 6 ft, easement that ran along the Pro�erty
line that was for drainage purposes only. The City Engineering Oepartment
has gone out to the site, reviewed the drainage, and feel the drainage ease-
ment was not necessary. So, that day the petitioner had petitioned to have
the easement vacated. Even if the Appeals Commission approves the variance,
the petitioner has to go to City Council to get a motion to allo�� a ter�oorary
encroachment or an encroachment for the lenyth of time it will take for the
vacation process. There should be no reason why the Council would not approve
the vacation because the Engineering Department has reviewed it and a9reed with
the vacation process.
Mr. Clark stated the petitioner had brought in sor�e construction plans for
the addition.
Ir
APPEALS COtM1ISSI0N MEETIf�G, SEPTEMBER 1, 1987 PAGE 3
�4r. Betzold stated he would like the petitioner to better explain his hardship.
Mr. 1lortenson stated they do not have a family room at this time. They have
a livi�g room, but they do not have a room for the TV, piano, and a place
for the children to play and have friends over. It would be very nice to
have a room for those types of activities. He stated he did not feel it would
work out very well to have the addition anywhere else on the lot.
Mr. Betzold stated o�e concern he had was overbuilding on the lot, and the
Conmission does try to discourage that.
Mr. P1ortenson stated they do have quite a few large trees in the back yard
and the addition would not involve the taking down of the trees. They would
still have a grassy area between the addition and the swimming pool and behind
tlie swimming pool as there is now. Right now where the addition o-�ould go,
they have a sandbox and a swingset and those will be moved farther back.
Dr. Vos asked if t4r. t4ortenson had talked to his neighbor to the north about
the addition.
Mr. Mortenson stated, yes, he had talked to his neighbors. The neighbor to
the north had no problem with the addition, and the neighbor to the south would
not even see the addition because of so many trees.
Mr. Sherel: asked how old the house was.
Fdr. �dortenson stated he built the house about 10 years ago.
Mr. Barna asked Mr. Clark what the percentage of lot coverage would be with
tlie addition and the screened-in porch.
Mr. Clark stated that the lot coverage with the addition would be 16.4%. This
was not including the swimming pool. The allowable lot coverage was 25%. The
petitioner was allowed by code to have 3,453 sq. ft. of building, and he would
have 2,278 sq. ft. with the addition.
Mr. Barna asked why the petitioner could not move the addition over 4 ft. to
the south.
Mr. Mortenson stated there was a half-bath back there with a wi�dow, and
they did not want to have to remove that window. Plus, it would make them
so much closer to the swimming pool, and it would make the back yard look
more cluttered. The way the addition was proposed, there was a fairly decent
space between the addition and the swimming pool.
Mr. Barna stated that since the sideyard was already ecisting at 4.6 ft.,
was it existing non-conforming?
APPEALS C019f4ISSI0Fa MEETIfJG, SEPTEMBER 1, 1487 PAfE 4
Mr. Clark stated that was correct; dowever, if the Appeals Commission altered
the variance being requested to less than the 4.6 ft., then it would be
proper for the Commission to act on the existing 4.6 ft. and then in a
separate motion approve the variance the Commission wants to approve. Now-
ever, if the Commission approves the 4.4 ft., then he felt that was encom-
passing enough to include the exisiing sideyard setback.
MOTZON BY MX. BARNR� SECONDED BY MR. SHEREK� TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING.
UPON A VOICE VOTE� ALL VOTING AYE� CHAIRPERSON BETZOLD DECLARED THE PUBLZC
HEARING CLOSED AT 7:54 P.M.
Mr. Sherek stated lie had a difficult time with the hardship in this case.
7he house was built by the petitioner, and there were no pre-existing condi-
tions from the time the property was purchased that would have created a
hardship. Ne stated the lot was very crowded. Because of the difficulty he
was having with the hardship, he wou)d have to vote against the variance.
Mr. Barna stated he felt basically the same way as Mr. Sherek. By moving the
addition over and eliminating the bathroom window, the variance wouid be
reduced to about 2.4 ft., but he still would have a problem iaith any variance.
The lot was quite crowded now. The only hardship was a self-created hardship
because the petitioner was the original owner of the house and had built the
house. He stated he would have to vote against the variance also.
Dr. Vos stated there was no objection from the neighbor to the north. By
moving the addition over and still keepinq the same square footage, � variance
would still be needed, so he would be in favor of the variance as requested.
Mr. Betzold stated he was in agreement a�ith what had been said by f1r. Barna
and Mr. Sherek. The yard was already crowded, the addition could be put on
with less of a variance than what was being requested. He also felt the
hardship was very weal:. The petitioners had made certain decisions alonp the
way, they planned the house, the swimming pool, etc., and now needed a
variance in order to build a family room when they should have planned ahead.
He wouid vote aga4nst the variance.

VAR �87-30
A. PUBLIC PURPOSE SERVED BY REQUIREMENT:
Section 205.07.03, D, 1, requires a minimum front yard depth of
35 feet:.
Public purpose served by this requirement is to allow for off-street
parkinq witfiout encroaching on the public right-of-��ay and also for
aesthetic consideration to reduce the buildinq "line of sight" encroach-
ment into the neighbor's front yard.
B. STATED HARDSHIP:
"The original building has a flat roof which was intended for a
porch that was never built. We need the porch now as a permanent
solution to the leaking roof which will rot out the garage ceiling
joists if it is not fixed."
C. ADPiIIJISTRATIVE STAFF REVIEW:
The home was built in 1953 prior to City zoning setback restrictions.
APPEALS CON�IISSIOF� MEETI�IG, SEPTEMBER 1, 19F37 PAfE 6
At the basement level of the original home, there is an attached
garage with a flat roof. The petitioner would like now to build a
porch on top of the garage at the same setbacks established when
the original garage was built. Since there is an eighteen foot
boulevard on Woody Lane, the structure is 43 feet back from the curb.
If the variance is approved, the staff has no stipulations to suggest.
Mr. Clark stated he had given the Cortmissioners a picture of the existing
garage on ��hich the new porch would be built. There was also a letter
from the adjoining neighbor to the east, Lois and Loren Adolphson, stating
they did not object to P1s. Jordal's request.
Ms. Jordal stated the garage roof was leaking badly and she needed to do
something soon. She stated the porch would be a three-season porch.
She stated she was also handicapped and she wanted some place where she
could go to get fresh air and enjoy the outdoors without having to use any
stairs.
Mr. Betzold read the letter from the Adolpnson's which stated they felt the
setback should be approved in order to allow Ms. Jordal to construct a
three-season porch. They stated the garage roof was presently flat which
was unattractive. They felt the porch would enhance the property and the
neighborhood. They stated t4s. Jordal was also somewhat handicapped and
the porch would certainly add to her enjoyment of the outdoors.

Dr. Vos stated he felt the hardship was sufficient, and he would be in
favor of granting the variance.
Mr. Barna stated he agreed. There would be no change in the physical wall
lines, just a three-season porch would be constructed on top of the
existing garage. If anything, it would improve the property, and the
hardship was a valid hardship.
Mr. Sherek stated he agreed with Dr. Vos and Mr. Barna.

C. ADMIIJISTRATIVE STAFF REVTEW:
At the present time this is an open loading dock. The petitioner would
like to enclose it. Planning Department staff has no objection to
this piro posal, as long as it is stipulated that the variance would be
only for this small enclosure and not the entire length of the building.
The neou west wall must be fire-rated and the petitioner must screen any
outside refuse containers.

APPEALS COP1h1ISSI0t� MEETIP�G, SEPTEPiBER 1, 1987 PAGE 8
P1r. Clark stated it was his understanding that if the loading dock was allowed
to be enclosed, that architecturally it was going to blend in with the
building.
Mr. Clark stated he had received a letter that day from the building owner
to the west, Plidvrest Machine Tool Supply Co., stating he had no objection
to the variance as requested by 11r. Harris.
Mr. Harris stated the new tenant, Beatrice Foods, feels it would be impossible
for them to utilize the building space if they cannot have an enclosed loading
dock, so it was an economic fact from that standpoint.
I4r. Harris stated the hardship for this particular lot was created after the
fact. The original plat was approved by the City Council and Planning Commission
with no raad there. About two days before he was to appear before the City
Council for final approval of the plat, the City decided to put a road through
there and needed an additional 25 ft. Because of that, it changed the orienta-
tion of the lot, so the hardship was really created by the City in asking for
the additional 25 ft. Ir', in fact, he had known about the road in the
beginning and the City had come to him initially, he would probably have
narrowed up the other lots along there to make the road possible.
Mr. Harris stated he oriented the building because of the way the road came
through there, so the building has frontage view both on the east and the
south and somev+hat on the north. The back of the building which would face
west was really not orientated to the public but was orientated to the build-
ing next to it, Midwest �4achine Tool Supply So. The Midwest Machine Tool
Supply building was set back to the west so there was parking lot between the
back of his building and the front of Midwest tlachine Tool Supply building.
As far as getting access for fire and any other equipment, there was plenty
of room.
t4r. Betzold read the letter from John Demos, President of Midwest Plachine
Tool Supply Co., who stated he was in concurrence with the request by Mr. Harris
for a covered dock area.

by the pei:itioner was created by the City in requesting additional nroherty
for a roaci. This was a nice looking buiiding and well maintained. He was
