which he has built and that he does not see why he should have any problem With
construction of this apartment building since the sanitary sewex stub is more

wi11 alleviate sanitary sewer problems in the City of Fridley. He stated that
he installed a gate valve in the runout of the sanitary sewer connection to his
home to enable him to shut off the back flow from the sewer and prevent flooding
of his home. Mayor Nee replied that construction of the storm sewer along T.lI,�f47
would probably improve conditions of the sanitary sewer norL-h of Highway ��100 but
the City cannot promise that it wi11 completely alleviate the problem.

further drainage problems in the South University area. The Mayor stated
that the City cannot guarantee that construction of the storm sewer pro�ect wi11
solve or eliminate all drainage problems in the part of Fridley which it will
serve but the Council believes it will alleviate most of the problems. He
stated that the Minnesota FIighway Department is designing the storm sewer
pro�ect and is using design criteria based on data allowing for heavier than
normal rain and snow every five years. He stated thatthis does not mean that
every five years there will be a flooded area a1Qng the Southern part of

emergency basis and these rates should be lowered if the City of Fridley enters

� Bloomington. He stated that the City of Minneapolis considers the terms of its
agreement with the City of Bloomington for the sale of water to the City of
Bloomington quite favorable. Councilman Thompson asked Mayox Nee wheiher it

I rezoning his property. Mr. Wellman stated that he was unable to attend the
Council meeting held on that date. Mr. Wellman said that to the best of his
— recollection consideration of xezoning this property was tabled. Mr. Wellman
said that his client recognizes the problems attendant upon the losses due to
tornado damage. He stated that he believes the City will feel more kindly towards
renewing consideration of his proposed plan for construction on this property
and will view favorably his request to rezone the property. Mr. Wellman stated
that he believes theplans of Mr. Thiesen for construction upon the property
wi11 fit in with the plans of the Fridley Housing azzd Rede�ralopement Authority,
and will be a good development for the City of Fridley.
Councilman Wright asked Mr. Wellman whether he intedds to discuss construction
of the new Red Ow1 Store. Mr. Wellman answered that he wi11 not discuss the
construction of the Red Ow1 Store but that Mr. Kranz is present at the Council
meeting and would discuss construction of the Red Owl Store. Mr. Wellman stated

property on which they propose to build the Red Ow1 Store Mr. Wellman
answered that a portion of the property of M�. Thiesen is commercial property
now. He stated that his client owns all oE the property between Mississippi

' Mr. Wellman stated that he proposed a plan for construction of a commercial
shopping center upon all of this property including sma11 shops one year ago
He �tated that since that time the plans have been updated andnow include
larger stores more to the liking of the City Council. Mr. Wellman stated
further that the plans will be dovetailed with plans for construction of the
Red Owl Store.
Mayor Nee asked Mr, Wellman whether it is economically feasible for him to
buy the ad�oining properties containing residences in the same Ulock as his
property. Mr. Wellman stated that the company which he represents would like
to do so and entered into negotiations with the property owners for this
purpose but the property owners made the purchase too costly. He stated that
�Z
if the company could purchase these homes it would resolve the pxoblems of
rezoning this property and ptovide a nice area for the location of the
shopping center.
Mayor Nee asked Mr. Wellman who is responsible for drawing the plans of the
new shopping center. Mayor Nee said that the City Council has seen the
plans of the Housing Authority and the Housing Authority contemplates
developing the area across Mississippi Street from the shopping center
which development should be coordinated with plans for the shopping center.
Mayor Nee said that he believes it wauld be a good idea for Mr, Wellman
and the planner for the company he represents to discuss plans for �
construction of the shopping center with the Fridley Hausing and Redevelopment
Authority and with the City Planning Consultant, Mr. Hodne,
Mr. Wellman asked Mayor Nee whether it is necessary for the application to go
through the Planning Commission, and other commissions of the City of Fridley
as was done the previous year. Mayor Nee replied that Ordinances for rezoning
property in the City of Fridley require applicants to submit their plans to
these commissions. The Mayor stated further that it will be to the benefit
oF Mr. Thiesen and the company concerned with the construction of the shopping
center to coordinate their plans with those of the Fridley, Housing and
Redevelopment Authority. Mr. Wellman stated that he does not wish to spend
a great deal of time viewing the plans of the Fridley Housing and Redevelopment
Authority, that the company he represents is ready to build upon this property
qesterday," and that he doesnot wlsh to delay consideration of possible
Yezoning. Mr. Wellman said that he would discuss,theplans with the Fridley
Housing and Redevelopment Authority and with the Planning Consultant with
reluctance but that he does not wish to delay this pro�ect by redrawing the
plans. Mayor Nee stated that the Fridley Housing and Redevelopment Authority
wi11 do everything possible to coordinate plans for constructinn of the
shopping center with their oCan plans, that plans of the City Planning Consultant
are in the preliminary stage and could be coordinated insofar as is feasible
with the plans of Mr. Wellman. He stated that plans for the Red Owl Store

D. J. I�2A11TZ COMP�rldY, INC:
Mr. Kranz stated that one year ago his firm, D.J. Kranz Company, Inc, went the
full route through a11 the eommissions of the City in order to obtain a
Building Permit for the construction of a Red Dwl Store. The City granted
permission to build upon this property but under the circumstances the firm,
was unable to do so at that time and did not take out a Building Permit. '
Now the firm would like to take out a Building Permit and have the Council
confirm its action of the previous year granting a Building Permit. The City
Manager said that a Building Permit had been granted for construction of a
Theison store and not to Red Owl stores, Inc.
Councilman Wright asked Mr. Kranz whether he has seen the preliminary plans of
the City Planning Consultant for the area at University Avenue and Mississippi
Street. Mr. ILranz answered, "No." Mr. Kranz stated that he is a contractor
for Aed Ow1 Stores and he did not draw the plans for construction of the Red
Ow1 Store. Red Owl Stores told him to attend the Council meeting in order to ,
obtain a Building Permit. Councilman Wright asked Mr. Kranz whether plans for
the Red Owl Store were drawn by Red Owl Stores, Inc, Mr, Kranz answered, "Yes."
Councilman Wright asked Mr. Kranz whether he could ask the Red Owl Compan� to
examine the preliminary plans of the City Planning Consultant, Mr. Kxanz
answered that he believes he could do so but he informed the Council that the
lease for the property was signed hy the Red Owl Company in the belief that a
Building Permit is avaalable. The Red Ow1 Company plans to begin construction
on Suly 5 and open the store October lst.
Councilman Sheridan asked Mr. Kranz whether theplans�for construction of the
Aed Ow1 Store are the same as presented to the Council last year. Mr. Kranz
answered, "Yes," except that plans for the decor and for the outside of the
store have been changed. Councilman Sheridan hold Mr, Kranz that the question
of zoning the north half of the Thiesen property wi1l affect the construction
of the Red Owl Store. He stated that rezoning raises the question whether the
33
Red Ow1 Store has sufficient property for parking customers' cars Mr. Wellman
said that the original plans for construction of the Red Ow1 Store show that
there was more parking for the store than actually needed.
Councilman Tdright stated that the plans of the City Plann�ng Consultant and of
the Fridley Housing and Redevelopment Authority are in a state of flux, are
subject to change and could accommodate other plans such as those of the Red
Owl Store and those of Mr. Wellman. Coun�ilman Wright said that he hopes the
Red Ow1 Company will consider the ovexall plans of the Fridley Housing and
Redevelopment Authority. The City has invested in pLamiing in the area and would
� like to ask the Red Owl Store to consider thoroughly, the plans being made by
the City. Mr. Kranz stated that the Red Ow1 Store has its construction program
and opening of the store scheduled and does not favor changing the schedule.
Mayor Nee stated that the new pians o£ the Red Owl Store provide for a bigger
store, and whereas, the City has no ob�ections to construction of a bigger
store, in fact would favor construction of a bigger store, the construction of
the Red Owl Stare should be mutually supporting with plans of the Redevelopment
Authority for the area across Mississippi Street from the Red Ow1 Store. Mayor
Nee stated that the Red Owl Store could be adversely affected by designs for
the property across Mississippi Street from the site of the store if these
plans are not coordinated with those of the Red Owl Store. He stated that when
the Fridley Housing and Redevelopment Authority, the City Planning Consultant
and the Red Owl Store know the plans of each other thep can proceed with
construction to their advantage. He stated that he believes it would be to the
advantage of the Red Owl Store to look at the plans of the City Planning
Consultant Mr. Kranz asked Mayor Nee, aftez the Red Dw1 Company looks at the
plans of Mr, Hodne how should the Red Owl Company proceed7 Mayor Nee answered
that it is his wish that the Red Owl Store express their ideas to the City
Planning Consultant and to the Fridlep fIousing and Redevelopment Authority in
order to protect their own intr�rests and coordinate their plans with those of
the City Planning Consultant. Councilman Wright stated that plans of Yhe
Fridley Housing and Redevelopment Authority and of the City Planning Consultant
are not sufficiently complete to show to the public. He stated that he belzeves
the Red Owl Stores will appreciate the chance to vieea these plans before
beglnning construction.
The City Manager pointed out to Mr. Kranz that his plans show an access to the
service road of T.H. i�47. He said that the only way the Aed Owl Store can
obtain access to the east service road of T.II. ��47 is for the City to buy back
the right of access to the east service road. Mayor Nee informed Mr. Kranz
that he can be sure the City wants the Red Owl Stores to build in Fridley.
He stated further that if a hitch develops in the plans of the Pndley
Housing and Aedevelopment Authority, the Red Ow1 Stores will obtain their
Building Permit immediately. He asked Mr. ICZanz to talk to the City Planning
Consultant, Mr. Hodne, on the following day and to the Fridley Housing and
Redevelopment Authority on Wednesday. He stated that the City Planning
Consultant has done much plamiin g already and that it would be to the advantage
of the Red Owl Stores and the City Planning Consultant to view each others
plans. Mr. Kranz agreed Co discuss the plans for the construction of the Red
Owl Store with Mr. Hodne. Mr. Wellman suggested that Mr. Kranz, himself, and
Mr. Hodne could discuss the plans for the area in the northeast cork�er of the

a possiUility. , _ �

obtained the �ob and is now applying Por a license. The P4ayor stated that he
is willing to allow the administration to check out matters concerning Kilgore
Aluminum Supplies, but since he heard the reports of Councilman Sheridan he
�oes not see much hope that Kilgore Aluminnm Supplies will be granted a license.

some length previously. He stated that the Council has reviewed many differenL
plat plans and individual plans and wishes to review the plans of Mr. Chies
before these plans are put into effect. Mayor Nee said that individual developers
tend to develop their property independent of other developers and the results
are mis-aligned streets, property grades which inaure the interests of other
property owners and plat plans which do� not further the interests of the City
of Fridley.
Mayor Nee asked Mr. Chies whether heplans to sell gravel from the property,
Mr. Chies answered, that he plans to sell the excess material From the grading
pro�ect. Mayor Nee asked Mr, Chies whether his plans are not more concerned

� grading the property to the advantage of �f�nture property owners. Mr, Chies
answered that hisplans are to produce a good plat and sell the excess material.
Mayor Nee informed Mr. Chies that ad�oining property owners axe against developmenl
of another gravel pit in the City of Fridley. Mr. Chies asked the Mayor whether
he wanted this piece of land developed. Councilman Wright answered that if tl�

but if rt is not developed in the correct way the City of Fridley does not want
the property developed. Councilman Wright told Mr. Chies thathe is trying to
buy out of standard procedure.

Sheridan since 'C�uncilman Sheridan said that he has heard a number of complainLs
concerning the plans of various developers in the area where Mr Chies proposes
to regrade the land. Mr. Chies said, "No." The City Manager advised Mr. Chies
to discuss the matter with Councilman Sheridan and the property owners to whom
Counc?lman Sheridan referred,
The City Manager informed Mr. Chies that the City Plznning Consultant wi11 want
more of a record and a better drawing of the plat plan showing all the grades
and contoua's which Mr, Chies proposes to develop upon Lhis property. Mayor Nee

for the adjoining property owners.
Mr. Chies stated that he wished to begin work immediately. The City Manager
informed Mx. Chies that as soon as he would be�in work the City Administration
� would receive 50 phone calls asking by what right Mr. Chies was regrading this
property and that if Mr. Chies did not have a permit the City administration
would be obliged to stop the grading work, immediately Couucilman Kirkham
informed Mr. Chies that he is in favor of the grading pro�ect but that he does
not believe the Council would okay a permit for regrading the property until
Mr. Chies discusses the matter with Mr. Sheridan and with the ad�mning properCy
owners and presents a gaod plat plan to the Council. Couneilman Wright informed
Mr. Chies that he will have to present a good land contour plan to the City
and obtain the apprt�val of the neighboring property owners before he wi11 obvain
a grading permit, that he will have to submit his plan to the City commissions
laefore the plan will be approved by the Council. Councilman Wright informed

Sanitary sewer she had no problem flushing the stool on the first floor but now
the stool on the first floor will no longer flush and the water barely siphons
out of the stool. She stated that her basement has a continuous odor of
sewage and she is getting disgusted with it. - ,
Mrs. Burns, a resident of 6230 Sunrise Drive, was present at the Council
meeting. She stated that water bugs and other little animals ase coming out
of the sewage into her first floor sinks since the sanitary sewer flooding,
especially during the last month. She stated that she saw these bugs in the
basement before but that they bother her a great deal. Now her basement is
Continuously flooded from the sanitary sewer back up, the plumbing fixtures
on the first floor are apparently being flooded since the sewage will not drain -
from the plumbing fixtures at the rate it would in the past and these 6ugs
are caming into her first floor plumbing fixtures in increasing numbers. She
stated that she did not like the pxesence of these animals in her home and
believes that they might carry diseases detrimental to the health of her family.
Mrs. Ellingson stated that she "thinks the property owners should petition the �
State Board of Health to examine the conditions of their property and determine
whether the City should take action to alleviate the problem immediately.
Councilman Wright informed Mrs. Ellingson that if the Health Department examines
her home the Health Department will condemn her home and order her to move out
of it. Mrs. Ellingson asked why property owners should be required to move out
of their homes when the sanitary sewer back flooding is obviously the fault oi
the City.
Mayor Nee read the memo from the City Health Inspector, 7ames Hensley, The memo
stated that conditions in the homes could create a possible outbreak of disease
and the conditions of the residences are pathetic. He stated that he would
advise the City to order immediate cleaning of the sanitary sewer system. The
City Manager stated that he requested the memo to expedite the application of
the City for Federal Funds to clean debris from the City seWers. He stated
that he is asking the Federal authorities for approval to clean debris from
the sanitary sewage system immediately without obtaining the grant beforehand,
Mrs. Ellingson asked why the City did not take iu¢nediate drastic action to end
the problem of sanitary sewer back flooding. Couricilman TJrfght stated that zf
the City were to take iu¢nediate drastic action the City would be gambling with
the tax payers money.
Mayor Nee said that the City asked Lyle Smith, Engineer for the State Board of �
Health, to examine conditions in these homes. Mayor Nee stated that the
reason the application has not been processed further is that the City has not
found it possible to accurately delineate all the areas ot the City which
should be excluded from debris removal in the sanitary sewer system.
Mr. Harvey Day, of 6221 Sunrise Drive, stated that he believes the City may be
on the right track in its attempt to obtain Federal funds in order to clean the
sanitary sewer system. Mayor Nee informed Mr. Day that the City is having some
:roubles in other places with sanitary sewer lines.
Mrs. E1lingson asked the Council whether when the stools in her home don�t flush
at a11 and since the sanitary sewer back flooding seem to be becoming increasingly
worse, this seems likely the property owners should build out houses on their
propery. Mayor Nee replied that it is not permissible for the property owners to
build out houses upon theix property.
�9
Mr. Harvey Day asked the Council whether Che City is pumping out sanitary sewer
mains at this time. The City Engineer answered,"No.^ He said that the pump
cannot run unless there is water in the sanitary sewer manhole and when there
is no water in the manhole the pump will automatical�y stop.
Mrs. Walker Burns stated that her house is at the lowest elevation of all the
houses in the area. She stated that she has had a great deal of Crouhle, not only
during the past four months, but in otheryeazs, She said that5n past years
she had trouble with saniCary Sewer back flooding so the City dug up the sewer,
installed a Y-connection to the sanitary se�oer and told her that her sewer
� problems were gone and her basement was okay. She stated that previous
flooding damaged clothing which she had stored in the basement and that when
she was informed that their basement was all right for use she had purchased
new clothes, stbred them in the basement and gone on vacation. When she
returned from vacation she found the basement flooded with sanitary sewage
and the clothers covered with tissue paper and solids. She stated that last
week she hired a contractor to pump out the basement since it was full of
sanitary sewage, She said that she had asked the City officials why theydid
not pump out the sanitary sewer mains and they had informed her they cannot
do so, She asked whether the sewer connection to her house should have been
xun in another direction to connect with a different main.
The City Engineer stated tha[ the City Explored the possibility of installing
a lift station to pump the sewage from this main into another interceptor.
Mr. Powell asked whether Che consultLng engineer, Mr. Comstock, could brief him
and his neighbors concerning the various alternatives which the City is examining
to alleviate this prohlem. Mr. Comtock �ated that he studied two alternaeives
The first alternative is lifting the sewage by mQUns of an e�ector, severing
the piesent connection to the sanitary sewer interceptor and pumping the
sanitary sewage into a differenC: interceptor. He stated thathe estimated the
cost of this solution and found that it is high. The second alternative is
revamping the lateral system, connecting all the sewer laterals to an existing
lift station and force pumping the sewage into the interceptor. A third
alternative is to connect much of the existing sanitary sewer system into the
sewer mains of the North Suburban Sanitary Sewer District when tho� sewer mains
� are complete. The City Engin�er asked whether the property owners would give
permission to examine the levels of flooding in their homes so the City can
accurately determine what elevations and pitch should be used to design new
sewer laterals. Councilman Wright stated that cleaning the sanitary sewer
mains will h elp to alleviate the problem and the construction of any oE the
alternates described by the Consulting Engineer is expensive. He stated that
the Council wants to save the Gity money and it is for this purpose that
citizens elected the Council. Councilman Wright stated further that the Council
is resisting any panic action which would cost the City an undue amount of expense.
Mr. Powe11 asked Councilman Wright whether the sanitary sewer serving their
homes has been paid for, and if it is why he is saying that there wi11 Ue
additional expense to the propertyowners, Councilman Wright answered that the
City can only charge property owners benefiting by an improvement for the cost
of the improvement or obtain the monies from Federal Funds. Mr. Powell asked
Councilman Wright whether his is the procedure the City uses when the sanitary
sewe� system is worn out. Councilman Wright answered that only the property
benefiting by an improvement may be charged`for the cost of the improvement
Mayor Nee stated that the Council realizes that the property owners understand
that the present sanitary sewer system is inadequate. He stated that it is
necessary for the City to make connect�ons to the mains of the North Suburban
Sanitary Sewer District, Mayor Nee informed the property owners that the
sanitary sewer in their area was built 10 years ago and is of cheaper design
than systems installed today. The requirements for the pitch of the sewer
� lines installed 10 years ago are less than the requirements in force today and the
sanitary sewer back flooding is the result of the use of o1d requirements He
stated that the property owners paid for the sanitary sewer construction wlten
they baught the property. He stated that the property owners wi11 be assessed
for any new construction after a period of 10 years. Mr. Powell stated that it
looks as though the property owners wi11 have to bear the problem but the
situation is urgent and it is necessary to find an immediaCe solution to the
problem. Mr. Day asked the Mayor whether he is saying that construction of the
sanitary sewer main was poor. Councilman Wright answered that perh�gs the
construction of the sanitary sewer main is not up to standards which are in use
today and the sanitary main will h�ve to be updated to the standards of
construction used at the present time.
Mss. Ellingson asked why property owners should pap for the cost of updating
the sanitary sewer system when the poor construction was not the Fault of the
40
property owners. Mayor Nee answered that it is not correct to blame the City
Engineer for the construction of the sanitary sewer�system when the poor
construction was not the fault of the property owners. Mayor Nee answered
that it is not correct to blame the City Engineer Eor the construction of
the sanitary sewer system . He stated that construction of the sanitary sewer
sqstem was the decision of the Council, the property developer, and the man
who was City Engineer at the time the sanitary sewer was designed. He stated
that the CLty not only has improperly constructed sanitary sewer systems but
also has inferior streets and inferior storm sewers based on earlier standards.
Mayor Nee stated that a vindictive attitude on the part of the property owners
wi11 not solve thezr problems and doesnot pay. Mayor Nee said that at the �
time the preliminary plans for the sanitary sewer system were drawn it was
anticipated that the total future population of the City of Fridley would be no
more than 18,000 people. The present population of the City is 25,000 people,
Mayor Nee stated that some mistakes have been made in the past but that the
people presently running the City Engineering Depattment can not be 6lamed
for these mistakes. Mrs. Ellingson stated that if mistakes were made the City
should pay for thase mistakes not the property owners. Mr, Powell thanked the
Council for listening to the complaints of the propertyowners and stated that
he appreciated the polite hearing which the Council granted to the property
owners.
The Council took no further action,
PERMIT TO MOVE HOME: MISTELSKE:
Mr. and Mrs. Mistelske were present at the Council meeting, Councilman Wright
asked Mr. Mistelske where the home is presently located. Mr. Mistelske
answered that the home is located in Spring Lake Park. Councilman Wright
asked Mr. MisteLske whether the home was damaged by the tornado. Mr, Mistelsek
answered that there was slight damage to the home and he outlined the work
described by the City Building Inspector which must be done to the home to
bring it into compliance with the codes of the City of Fridley. Mr. Mistelske
showed a plot plan of the location of the home and pictures of the home to
the Council. The City Manager asked Mr. Mistelske Whether he wi11 perform
the work of repairing the home himself. Mr. Mistelske answered, "No," �
Mayor Nee informed Mr. Mistelske that the Building Board wi11 meet on
Wednesday, June 23, 1965 and asked Mr, Mistelski whether he could present his
request to the Building Board. Mr. Mistelske replied that the Building
Inspector examined his house and said that it would be allright for him to
move the house into the City of Fridley and repair it. Councilman Wright
stated that moving the home will require Mr. Mistelslce to apply for a moving
permit. CoummciLman Wright stated tfiat moving the home will require Mr. Mistelske
to apply for a moving permit. Councilman Wright informed Mr. Mistelske that
the City will want a proper plot plan drawn to scale. The City Manager asked
Mr. Mistelske to make a plot plan drawn to scale showing the exact location
of the foundaton and where he plans to locate the house, and bring it to the
Building Inspector. After the Building Inspector has examined the plot plan,
Mr. Mistelske should come to the Building Board meeting and the Building
Inspector would present the plot plan to the Building Board and discuss the
p'ro�ect. �
Mayor Nee informed Mr. Mistelske that the City will require him to furnish a
cash bond to guarantee that he will repair the home in the manner in which he
described. Mr. Mistelske asked the amount of the cash bond. Mayor Nee
informed Mr. Mistelske that the Building Board will decide the amount of the
bond. He informed Mr. Mistelske that the bond will be returned when he
completes restoration of the house,
Councilman Wright asked Mr, Mistelske whether he understood all the requirements �
of the Building Inspector. Mr. Mzstelske answered, "Yes."

showed the Council a plot plan and described his proposal to rebuild the
garage. The City Manager stated that the plot plan shows the garage is not a
detached garage nor is it generally considered an attached garage. Councilman
Wright stated that it is a semi-attached garage, The City Manager asked
Mr. Scarcella whether he could move the garage to make it an attached garage.

plat there are two other questions for the Council to consider. One question
is whether the Council wishes to a11ow Acres� Inc. to do their own improvement
work for utilrties and streets in which case the Council normally requires
one percent of the cost as escrow, have the City do the improvement work and
requires one percent of the cost as escrow, have the City do the improvement
work and require a 5% escrow, or whether the Council wishes to waive the escrow
fees. The second question is whether Acres, Inc, should be required to dedicate
land for a park in accordance with the ord�nance, provide the City with cash
in 1�eu thereof or the Council waive the requirement for a park dedication
of land or cash . The City Manager stated that since the area on the new
plat plan is more than the original area, the Council could well acquire
from Acres, Inc. some additional land according to the formula in the
ordinance requiring dedication of parks to the City. Councilman Thompson
stated that he opposed the dedication by Acres, Inc. to the City of park
land in the form of Outlot 1 in Innsbruck Sth Addition. He stated that
