REGULAR COUNCIL MELTINC, APRIL 15, 1968 PAGE 2
DISCUSSION OF ING SIVERTS OPTION
The City Attorney said that the City had entered into an option to
purchase certain property belonging to Mr. and Mrs. Ing Siverts east
of Central Avenue. He said that the option was soon to expire and that ,
Mr. Siverts has indicated that he can get a mortgage release when he
gets a lot split. He suggested that if the Council as still inter-
ested in this property, the option be exercised, and the funds will
Ue available when Mr. Siverts gets the release on that portion of the
property the City is interested in.
MOTION by Councilman I-Iarris to concur with the City Attorney and
exercise the option on the Siverts property, notifying the principal
that the money will be available upon the completion of the lot split
and the release of the mortgage. The motion was seconded.
Councilman Liebl asked the City Attorney what the City will be able
to do with this land. The City Attorney said the City will own the
property without any restrictions. He said he believed that the funds
were to come from the park Punds, but the land will not have to be
restricted to parks. There �aas a discussion about the amount budgeted
for land acquisition. The Finance Director said that the money �vas
in the emergency fund, and the Council would have to pass a resolution
to transfer the money to the Park budget.
Upon a voice vote, there Ueing no nays, Mayor Kirkham declared the
motion carried unanimously.
DISCUSSION OF HEALTH ORDINANCE #372 - REQUESTED BY THE LEAGUE OP iNOMEN
VOTERS. �
Councilman Liebl said that he would agree with the League of Women
Voters suggestions #4 and #S in their letter dated January 28, 1968.
He said that toilet facilities should be adequate for the public as
well as employees. He said that some of our rest rooms are very
small and inadequate, and in the future the requirements should be a
little tougher for Food establishments.
Mrs. Elinor Phillips, representing the League of Women Voters, said
that the League wanted to commend the Council for passing the ordinance
which they felt was needed to protect the public's health. She said
they had compared it to the National Ordinance and that it compared
very well, except that it lacked in a few provisions. She said that
the League felt the most serious was in not having a suspension pro-
vision. She gave the Council a copy of this provision from the Crystal
Ordinance. She explained that this would be used in case of an imminent
health hazard, and the owner would be asked to close immediately by
the Health Officer (with the City b4anager's approval) without going
through a Council Hearing or into Court. She said they did not £eel
this would give one man too much power as he would have to have the
approval of another City Official. She said that the League was satis-
fied with the other answers the City At�orney had made in his memo-
randum of February 15, 1968, if these were the Council's policy.
'

REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING, APRIL 15, 1968 PAGE 3
� Mayor Kirkham sasd the Council appreciated the comments of the League
of 1Nomen Voters very much, and said that his only concern would be
protecting the businessman and making certain no one individual has too
much power, even though he is technically trained. He said he was
sure something could be worked out that will be satisfactory wrthout
loosing its expediency. He said that perhaps the Health Oflicer and
the City Manager could consult the City Attorney or three Councilmen
(so it would be a majority) to concur with the acti_on to be sure that
it is not done too hastily to in�ure a man's business.
MOTION by Councilman Harris to refer this section regarding a summary
suspension provision to the City Attorney to worl< into the language we
would use in the framework of our ordinance in order to have it com-
patible with our ordinance, and bring it back to the Council for dis-
cussion May 6, 1968 in a form ready to pass on. The motion was seconded.
Councilman Liebl asked the City Attorney if he would consider that the
League's suggestion No. 5 regarding toilet facilities meeting the same
requirements for the public as for employees should be added also. The
City Attorney said that he and the Health Officer feel that Section 16
of the existing ordinance is broad enough to cover both public and
employee restrooms.
Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion
carried unanimously.
� DISCUSSION OF HYDE PARK.
Councilman Harris said that he had asked that this item be placed on
the Agenda because of his concern for the area. He said that in order
to review this closely, he has spent time going through the area and
talked to the people that would be affected by any changes in the general
area. Councilman Harris said that as a result of the City Attorney's
opinion ihat the Schmedeke rezoning could not be Urought up for 6 months,
he did not want to see the area lay in abeyance so he would make a motion
that although there is no petition from the general area, that the Coun-
cil work on the basis that the area between University and 2 1/2 Street,
from 60th Avenue to 57th Avenue be viewed as C-1 and C-Z and that the
City Engineering Department work out a trafiic pattern and send it to
the State Highway Department for their comments. This should be co-
ordinated in the City Manager's Office, who would be responsible for
this coordination.
There was a discussion about the fact that naming the kind of commercial
would pexhaps be too restrictive, and �ust the word commercial should be
used Councilman Sheridan said that there has been no request for
further action from the area, he could not see the need for the Council
to go ahead with this, but he could see sending it back to the Planning
Commission and letting them get a Planning Consultant to review the
whole area as they had requested. Councilman Harris said that the people
� have not physically come in for individual rezoning, but this would be
a way to get a �ump on the pro�ect by getting some engineering done that
has to be done.
�� �7
REGULAR COUNCIL NI�ETING, APRIL 15, 1968 PAGE 4
Councilman Liebl said he thought this should be tabled for the present ,
time, although he agrees the area should be looked into, he would like
to have the people go along with it, and he would like to concur with
them to see if they are willing to put their initiative behind the
Council. He said that they have said they will work with a planner.
Councilman Harris said that he would change the wording of the motion
to �ust "commercial" and feels that this is what the people in the
area want, and he would make it the duty of the Planning Commission to
define the limitations. Councilman Samuelson said he would agree be-
cause the more Uackground they have on the area and the more research
done, the better for the final decision. Mayor Kirkham said that the
Council can't lose anything, and it may gain by having our own staff
working on it. He said that the City Manager has had some planning
experience.
Councilman Sheridan said he could agree if the Planning Commission was
asked to review it, but he did not like the idea of the Council doing
it. Councilman Harris said that he would add that it should be wzth
the concurrence of the Planning Commission to his motion. Councilman
Sheridan said that using the Administration in this capacity would be
taking over the function oi the Planning Commission as liason between
the Council and the people, and if there had to be any discussions with
the people, the staff would have to hold meetings with these people.
Councilman Harris said his thinking was that the engineering plan would
not go forward without the approval of the Planning Commission. After �
discussion, the Council agreed that there should be concurrence of
the Planning Commission with the motion rather than on the plan.
MOTION by Councilman Harris, that with the concurrence of the Planning
Commission, direction be given the City Engineer and Administration to
assume that between University Avenue and 2 1/2 Street, and from 6Dth
Avenue to 57th Avenue is commercial zoning, and ask the Engineering
Department and Administration to work out an internal traffic pattern
and roadway and refer it to the State Highway Department for their
comments and decisions from the standpoint of T.H. #47. Seconded by
Councilman Samuelson. Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, Mayor
Kirkham declared the motion carried.
FIRST READING OF AN ORDINANCE ON THE SALE OF CHRISTMAS TREES:
Mayor Kirkham gave a brief description of the proposed ordinance to
the audience and said that it primarily takes care of cleaning up Christ-
mas Tree Lots at the end of the season. Councilman Sheridan said that
when he had brought this sub�ect before the Council, it was not nec-
essarily to have as a revenue producing license, but to protect all
oi the citizens from the shambles that some of the lots have been left
in. He said that by Ueing set up with a$10.00 license fee and $100.00
deposit that it be cleaned up by January Sth, this will eliminate some
of the fly by night businesses. '
bI0TI0N by Councilman Sheridan that the ordinance regarding the sale
of Christmas trees be accepted at first reading, waiving the reading,
Seconded Uy Councilman LieUl. Upon a roll call vote, Kirkham, Liebl,

TRAPPING, KILLING, OR INJURING OF WILD ANIMALS AND BIRDS WITHIN THL�
CITY OP FRIDLEY AND PROVIDING A PENALTY POR THE VIOLATION THEREOP
Councilman Harris said that he agreed with the ordinance, and would
suggest one change for the second reading. He said that the words
"attempt to in�ure" should be included. The Council agreed with this.
MOTION by Councilman Harris that the ordinance be accepted upon first
reading, waiving the reading. Seconded by Councilman Samuelson.
MOTION by Councilman Harris to amend the ordinance so that in Section 1
the words "in�ure or attempt to in�ure" are added. The motion was

DISCUSS VENDING MACHINE LICENSES AS APPLY TO MONIES POR CHARITY PtIRPOSES
The City Manager said that there has been a request to reduce the cost
� of the license where it is used for charitable purposes. He said that
his recommendation would be that although the Fee might be reduced, or
in some cases eliminated, the machines should still be licensed for
control. Councilman Harris said that he had viewed the letter from
the Lion's Club and he agrees that the fee is too large for the in-
come that can be generated. He said he would suggest that the City
eliminate the fee on machines that have S¢ and under items.
MOTION by Councilman Harris to direct the City Attorney to prepare an
ordinance amending the existing ordinance to license Uut waive the fee
on vending machines that are 5¢ or under per sale (a vending machine
that has other candy at lOg would not be included in having the fee
waived). The motion was seconded. Councilman Sheridan said he agreed,
and that the machines should be licensed For control of sanitation Uy
the Health Inspector, and the fee waived.
The City Attorney asked if this would take care oF the problem of the
non-profit organizations. A member of the Lion`s Organization was
present at the Council Meeting, and although he said he could not
speak officially for the Lions, they had dlscussed this and the orig-
inal ordinance would cost them approximately $200 a year instead of
receiving $150 for the sales. He said that this solution would be fine
as far as they are concerned because their machines are all of the
penny variety.
' Mr. Proctor, representing Vendall Machines, said that some City Council's
do keep a license on machines to make sure the machines are kept clean.
He named some other Cities that have ordinances similar to Fridley`s
present ordinance, and stated that they have all been repealed.

from the Lion's Club. Seconded by Councilman Sheridan. Upon a voice
vote, there being no nays, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried

DISCUSSION OP PARK BOND ISSU� BROCI-IURE:
Councilman Harris said that it had been his understanding after the
discussion wrth the Parks and Recreation Commission, that they were
going to identily areas ior parks, rather than specific park areas,
and he Ceels they failed to do this on the map. He said that the
parks the City now has and is proposing to develop should be ident-
ified by area, but other areas may develop with structures before the
land can be acquired or another area may turn out to be better, or the
cost of the land may be exorbltant. The Council suggested that a
larger "A" could be used, or something as large as perhaps a 1/2
dollar. It was suggested that a symbol for "acquisition" be used and
put in that spot. Councilman Liebl said that it was a very nicely
produced map and the Park Commission should be ce�amended for it.
Councilman Harris said that in the memorandum from the Parks and Rec-
reation Commission, under the heading "Action Requeste3", they request �
permission to use the brochure draft for passing on information, but
he would not agree with this until the change is made in the map.
Mayor Kirkham suggested that, so the Commission does not have to wait
Por another Council Meeting after the change is made, a copy can be
left in the City Manager's oifice and the Council can iriitial it.
N�OTION by Councilman Harris to receive the communication from the
Parks Commission and that the conversation regarding the markings on
the map be indicated to them in answer to their request under "Action
Requested". Seconded by Councilman Sheridan. Upon a voice vote,
there being no nays, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried unanim-
ously.
RESOLUTION r�50-1968 - PROVIDING FOR THE ISSUANC� OF BONDS FOR PARK
F
The City Attorney said he had left the space for the amount of the bonds
blank because he was not positive of the final amount, so this should
be included, and in the instructions to voters, the time the polls are
opened should be corrected to read 7 00 A.D1. rather than 8.00 A.M.
The City Attorney said that wording on the resolution is the same as
was used on the Locke Park Bond Issue, and he felt it was short enough
and broad enough to cover anything that could be done in park ac-
quisition and develop,nent. '
�- �
REGULAR COUNCIL �fEETING, APRIL 15, 1968 PAG� 7
� Councilman Sheridan questioned adding the word "recreational" under
Item One, and in the ballot example so that following the words ^fox
the purpose of providing money for", it would state, "park, playground
and recreational purposes". The Council and City Attorney agreed this
was a good suggestion,
MOTION by Councilman Samuelson to adopt Resolution #SO-1968 as amended
with the addition of the word "recreational" in the purpose of pro-
viding the money, changing the time the polls open from 8•00 A.M. to
7:00 A.M. and adding the figure $1.5 Million as the dollar figure
which is not to be exceeded, Seconded by Councilman Liebl.
The City Engineer asked if this would preclude the City from putting in
Municipal facilities at these locations, such as wells. The City
Attorney said that this would depend on how the City took title, but it
is the policy of the City to make the use as broad as possible.
Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, Nlayor Kirkham declared the
motion carried.
SEWER AND WATER LATERALS, ASS�SSMENT - LOT 17, CLOVER L�AF ADDITION,

that he would be doing this if he went any further with this plat, but
he had another parcel he had to sell also, and if he could not sell
that parcel first, he was not going to go through with this.

MINUTES OP THE BUILDING STANDARDS - DESIGN CONTROL MEETING, APRIL 10. 1968
1. CONSIDER4TION OF A DRIVE-IN ON MAX SALITERI�4AN`S PROPERTY, BEING
PART OF LOTS 16 AND 17. AUDITOR'S SUBDIVISION 88. REOUEST BY
The City Engineer said that this was a request for a Sandees Drive-In.
He pointed out the proposed location on the map and said that there is
not adequate parking to meet the present standards. He said the Com-
mittee would recommend that they provide 425 additional parking spaces,
Ehat they submit a final landscaping plan, including sidewalk, if the
Council feels they want to continue this zoning requirement, and that
*hey meet minimum setback requirements. He said they would be asking
for waivers as they are too close to the road. Councilman Harris said
that the Certificate oF Occupancy should be withheld until the additional
parking is provided and this should be checked before they move in.
The City Engineer suggested that the permit be given, sub�ect to these
conditions, and they Ue checked before the Certificate of Occupancy
is given as they have had difficulty with this shopping center before.
Councilman Sheridan said he felt the drive-in should go on the south �
side of West Moore Lake Drive and not in the parking area designated.
He said he thought the request for the location should be denied as
laid out on the plat. Councilman Harris said he would suggest that the
City ask them to take back their plan and provide an alternate location
or adequate setback from West Moore Lake Drive. The City Engineer said
he would recommend no waivers. He did not see any �ustified reason to
put everything in one area.
MOTION by Councilman Sheridan to return the plan to the applicant and
ask him to possibly find another location within his property, to meet
the requirements of the Building Standards - Design Control Subcom-
mittee Meeting Minutes oL- April 10, 1968; and to indicate to the ap-
plicant that the Council frowns on any waivers of the present ordinance.
Seconded by Councilman Samuelson. Upon a voice vote, there being no
nays, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried.
2. CONSIDERATION OF A MANUFACTURING AND DISPLAY BUILDING, 120' x 225'
The City Lngineer said that the Subcommittee motion had been to grant the
permit sub�ect to proper erosion control, adding more trees, and curbs on
parking spaces, except the employee parking lot. The City Engineer said
that if the Council requests curbing, he would suggest there be a
machine L-ormed lip on the parking lot, and he feels there should be ,
some kind of curbing. He said that he also suggested that instead of
blacktop to the Uuilding, it start 5' away from the building.
REGULAR COUNCIL M�ETING, APRIL 15, 1968

4. CONSIDERATION OF A SWIA4MING POOL AT THL GEORGETOWN COURT APART-
ST
The City Engineer said that no one had been present at the meeting to
� represent Filister or Baker Pool and the proposal had been returned for
adequate plans. I-Ie said that he had received a call from Mr. Pilister
saying that he wants to comply with all the requirements, and would
like to get started for operation by June lst. I-Ie questioned whether
this could be handled without having to come back to the Council. The
City Engineer showed the plans of what roughly was wanted, and said
that the Health Inspector has made the notes that he requires on the
plan. There was a discussion on whether the Council should approve this
proposal sub�ect to the approval of the Subcommittee and Administration,
but it was decided that the Subcommittee meets shortly before the next
Council Meeting, and the information could be brought to the Council
at the meeting of bSay 6, 1968.
MOTION by Councilman Harris that no action be taken on this item until
it is returned to the Council again from the Building Standards -
Desing Control Subcommittee. Seconded by Councilman Liebl. Upon a
voice vote, there being no nays, Mayor Kirkham declared tha motion
carried unanimously.
S. CONSIDERATION OF A CAR �ARE CENTER LOCATED ON LOTS 7, 8, 9, 10,
Councilman Sheridan pointed out that the description in the minutes was
incorrect, and should be changed from Bennett-Palmer Addition to City
�View Addition. The City Engineer read the Building Standard's recom-
mendation regarding fencing which would Ue 52' on the back side and 32'
on the opposite side, and that the north wall will be faced with brick.
�
;� ��
REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING, APRIL 15, 1968 PAGE 12
The Council discussed the fencing and requested that the fencing ,
on the west be extended to the back of the driveway edge because of
the policy of abutting commercial and residential property. The City
Engineer asked the representative, Mr. Holvenstot, about Holiday's
plans for the property west of this area. Mr, Holvenstot said that
they would like to acquire the property, but they have no plans at
this time Mr. Holvenstot said they would be happy to agree with a
redwood fence, if the Council wants it. Councilman Liebl pointed out
that he has been receiving calls about litter blocving to the empty
lots across the street. A4r. Holvenstot said he would discuss having
this done with the regular maintenance work.
MOTION by Councilman Harris to concur with the Building Standards -
Design Control Subcommittee recommendation and grant the permrt for
a car care center to the Erickson Corporation, sub�ect to the two
provision in the Subcommittee's Minutes of April 10, 1968, and that the
fencing on the west side be extended up to the standard setback (back
oI the driveway edge). The motion was seconded, and upon a voice

CLAIMS:
�40TION by Councilman Samuelson to pay the General Claims #14592
through #14695 and Liquor Claims #2104 through #2167. Seconded by
Councilman Sheridan for discussion.
Councilman Sheridan said that the claim for the Insurance Consultant
was very expensive ror �ust drawing up the draft for the proposed
bid. He said he thought the City �fanager and Finance Director could
have done what the Consultant has done so far this year. The Finance
Director said that the total premium the City pays for hospital-
ization is approximately $26,000, and the other premiums total over
$30,000. Councilman LieUl asked what it cost the City when we had an
insurance committee. The Finance Director said that the City did
not pay the Committee, but he did not know if the insurance cost more
or less, as there is no way to measure that. Councilman Harris said
that there had been a big reduction in the liquor liability after the
City had hired the Insurance Consultant. Councilman Harris said he
thought they should itemize their bill, so the Council will know
what we are being charged for. Councilman Sheridan suggested that
this be looked into in the future, and perhaps it could be done on
a Uasis, of what a consultant will charge for "X" quantity of insurance.
D4ayar Kirkham pointed out that the firm had also evaluated the bids.
The Finance Director said that the figure they list may include both
the General and Hospitalization Insurance.
Upon a voice vote, there Ueing no nays, �Iayor Kirkham declared the
motion approving the Claims carried unanimously.
