This item was placed on the Agenda at the request of Counciiman Lieb1, and originally had been initxated to inform the public of Municipal vs. private liquor. This Council chose to make a concerted effort L J� i u REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 17, 1968 PAGE 4 to find which was best, and bring it to the public to help them tttake up their minds. This was c�ifficult until the information was obtained. We are now close to the Legislative session, and it might be we11 to see what the ne�ct session will do in this regard before the Council makes any recommendations. Counc�.lman Liebl stated that the Council had received a letter £rom Mr. Pikul oE Horwath and Horwath stating he was unable to attend the Meeting. Councilman Lieb1 said the Council has to make a decasion regarding payment of the bill and he requested this item be on the Agenda because he would like to ask the following five questions which he feels have not been answered. Following are the five questions as presented by Councilman Liebl: 1. "rn projecting the various establishments that Mr. Pikul considered lakely to locate in Fridley, he must have aoquired certain information concerning available sites. From whom did he get his information? � 2. V,112at members of this Council have met with Mr. Pikul , and discussed certain phases of th.�s report and c�eveloped some o£ the information in it? 3. The Horwath Report xs so obvzously slanted in favor of private liquor that this fcllowing question is upper- most on everybody's mind, 4. Was Mr. Pi7cu1 instructed to prepare such a report or was he asYed to make an honest and impartaal study? S. If it was supposed to be an honest and impartial study, why is it so totally slanted, containing numerous errors and oversaghts, misrepresentations and contradictions? Tt is quite obva.ous Committee the work questa.onable." in the opinion of the Mayor's Evaluation that Horwath and Horwath has done is Mayor Kirkham said that he was sure that Mr. Piku1 would agree io meet with the Council, and that we should give him some latitude in naming the time possible for him. Councilman Liebl saa.d that , he was not trying to discredit the firm, he �ust wanted an honest answer. � � �_ J . r��r�q - � ;�, REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF �7UD7E 17, 1968 PAGE 5 MOTION by Councilman Samuelson, that in an effort to alleviate this problem, the Administration be instructed to contact Mr. Pikul and see if a meeting could be arranged for the week of July 15th at his convenience.

MOTION by Councilman Samuelson to dispatch the letter. Seconded by Councilman Haxris. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Pdayor Kirkham declared the motion carried. Councilman Liebl said that the reason he requested that this be put back on the Agenda a.s that he feels that i£ we do not give the Iiighway Department some inda.cation of our wishes, they will not move. The people in th at area have a.ndicated their need to him as there are no sidewalks. He sa�d that the Council has received a petition from the hom e awners and if we do not give some concsete inda.cation within the next 30 days, the City will lose the p�oject for this year. Mayor Kirkham said that this was started 5 or 6 years ago, and the problem with the Hiyhway Department at that time was that they had no established policy, but now there would be no problem in getting their 50/. zt was his opinion chat before we pass this resolution, we should hear definitely =rom the two bodies involved, as we must get assistance. -�? n � < ) � �� ���) REGULAR COUNCIL NLEETING OP �UNE 17, i968 PAGE 6 Councilman Samuelson suygested a resolution could be passed statiizg that Fridley will be responsible for 1/3 of the cost.

He saicl that he had talked to the Highway Department and the City would need about 50' from the Holiday property. The City could request the vacation of the connecting link in the east £rom the Minnesota Hiyhway Department, and this road right o£ way could go to Holiday. We would be giving up about 25' and would be gettiny about 50'. The quesizon is, if the City should open up the road. � He said that he had had some preliminary discussions with Hola.day and they are willing to yive the 50' although it xs not promised.

Mr_ Camstock replied L-hat this will have to be resolved before the final plans and specifications are presented. The sewer and water will have to be designed in con�unctaon with the storm sewer plan. If the ditch is to be enlarged, there would be ' culverts under �,lm and Beech Streets.

RECONSIDERATION OF RE4UESTED VARIANCES BY MtIX SALITERMAN- ' Wyman Smith was present representing Mr. Saliterman. He said that he was hoping Cauncilman Sheridan would be present, He painted out tkiat this property o£ Mr, saiiterman's has always been zoned C-2S. Rice Creek Roaa bisects his shopping center, this was a road the City wanted, not NLr. Saliterman, but he went along with the City's re�uests. There was no talk at that L-ime of having trauble with re�uested variances in the =uture. He pays assessments on this road on both sides and has pretty well paid for the road. He said that he felt i� was unfair for the City to re4uire extra sidewal]:s along the streel'. anci that it would actuaiiy detract from the buildiny, and that it would take some parkiny area away, This request is for a Sandy's Restaurant and not a drive-in type ot establishment. Sandy's is a yood national chain of restaurants and there is one in exis�ance in St. Anthony at this time. His choa.ce of placement north ot Rice Creek Road was because there are poss�.ble developments south oE the road tha� Mr. Saliterman has been working on. This was also the choice of the Sandy"s representatives. Further norch would interfere with the grocery store. Mr. Smith said that nis client did nat £ee1 that he could live with an 80' setbac7, as the Cade requires, L-here- fore he is requesting th e 25' setbac3t fram Rice Creek Road. If � this area were zoned for a restaurant, there would be no probiems. Mr. Smith said that on these grounds, he would so appeal to tnis Council on the basis oF propriety, and L-hat Mr. Saliterman knaws what best serves the long run value of shoppang centers and the £act that thas restaurant really does not take up much land. � � �_� REGUI,Ait COUNCIL' MF.ETIL'�IG OP JfJNE 17, 19G8 PAG�, 18 Councilman Harris painted out that L-his is not a particular case ' as Holly Center has sidewalks on Mississippi Street. T3e said that on one occasion when he went to the Shorewood Shopping Center tha cars were parlced a11 the way out to the street, with very few spaces left. Mr. Smith said that when 'che south side is developed, probably sidewalks would be needed to run north and south, but not running east and west as this would be a detraction, and that he could see no immediate need. He said that it seesns unreasonable to pick out a particular parking space. He pointed out that Holiday and 'large� show peak periods of use, whereas this shopping center has a more st�ady ilow oC traffic. Counc�.lman Harris painted out that it would be unfair to act at this time as the Councilman representing this ward is not present, He chought that Councilman Sheridan had initiated the motion denying the reguest and iL- would be unEair to him as Representative of th� second ward to act without his concurYence Mr. Saliterman sa�d that the shopping center has xoom for 550 cars, ' bui 250 spaces would be suffa.cient, and that land is being wasted, He said that there is now more than a 3 to I ratio of land to buildings, and with the restaurant there would still be sufficient par}cinq area. He saici that the variance was requested as there is to be no retailing on the south or west side of the building, and that even closer would be beneficial. 'S'he Sandy's Restaurant in St. Anthony is a very success£ul operation and they are fine �enan�s. He expressed the view that this restaurant would be an asset to the shopping center and to Shorewood La.quor Lounge, and that if the Council saw fit to turn this request daHm, the City would be the loser too. Mayor Kirkham told Mr. 5aliterman and Mr. Smith that they pres�ted a good case, but he must agree with Councilman Harris and that the Council should wait until Councilman Sheridan is present. Mr. Smith said that he would be unable to attend the next regular Council Meering so he would talk to Councilman Sheridan in th� interim. MOTION by Councilman Harris to continue the request for variances , by Max Saliterman £or a Sandy's Restaurant to the next Regular Council Meeting. Seconded by Councilman Liebl. Upon a voice vote, al1 voting aye, Mayor i.irkham declared L-he motion carried. , � L J REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 17, 1968 PAGE 19 ;c� � ��_ RECEIVING BIDS ON CARPETING FOR SHOREP700D LOUNG$ (OPENED 10:30 A M.

One is the Chase Island Access Road. The bid on this postion came in at $2500 above the Engineering estimate, the reason being that �he storm sewer is a tougher �ob than anticipated. He said that he had met with Ilistrlcl; #1q School Superintendent in regard to providing 16 parking spaces for the cii.izens for the park on school property and they are willing to glve us the right of way needed �20' on the south portion £or road access� however, they feel that they should not be assessed as there ls no benefit. Thls would in turn raise the assessments on the remaining property. He suggested putting in asphalt curbing to bring the cost down somewhat. He said that �he school wants to sod now and they want to know lf we wi11 be blacktopping the requested parking space. It would be about $1400 ior blacktopping area toward the rlver. The bid does lnclude some �o-r blacktopped parking space. Councilman Harris suggested that this be talked over wzth the Park Director. On the Universitg Avenue East Service Road, the Englneer explained, we had figu-res fos a 36' road in the Public Hearing. This was incseased to �Ei' by the Counczl. The Engineering estimate was $¢8,000 and the bid came in at $98�594•50, the reason being the increase -rom 36' to 48� which accounted for about 33� increase, and the £act that there was more subcutting than allowed for in the estimate. Councilman Harris asked how much ihe County sha-re was. ^he City Lngineer replied that the County share would be about 1�3 of the cost. We have about 400' rlght of way. Councilman Harris suggested talking to the County about this. The City Engineer said that the contracL-or should be made aware of this and should be made a conditional award, so the construetlon could be gotten under way on some of the other streets witr no problems. The City Engineer explained tnat on the 69th Avenue crossover, the EY�gzneering estzmate was $17,000 and the bid came in over $23,000. The ma�or portion of the cost will be the City's as the State dld not seem to be agreeable witl� paying for the constructlon in the dltch. d �� . `V {'� ._. 1 i �i RE�ULAR COU�rCIL NLEZ'ING OF TUNE 17, 1968 PAGE 28 Councilman Samuelson asked ii an award can be given if the bid is lOf or more over the Eagineering estimate, The Czty Engineer said that the total bid is not 10� over, �ust in the areas mentioned.
