Robert Locker, 1b01 Onondaga Street; He presented a petition against
the rezoning.
MOTION by Jensen, seconded by Myhra, that the Planning Commission
receive the petition presented by Mx. Locker and circulated by him dated
February 13, 19b9 opposing the rezoning-request, ZOA f�69-02. ,Upon a voice
vote, all voting aye, the motion carried-unanimously. -
George Aanson, 1476 Onondaga St.: Ae said the petition just presented
represents pretty near everybody on that block. It includes nineteen home
owners. They feel there is plenty of comnnercial and industrial Chat is
aoned commercial along there without putting it out in a residential area.
These people are-buying theix homes without knowing the rezoning that is
coming about..
Gordon P, Gnasdoskey, 1491 Onondaga St.: He said he lived on the East
end of the park and felt that the park should remain the way it is now.
There is a lot of children using it, and at the present time there is a lot
of traffic all the time to that area. He thought putting such a.complex
in a residential area would be hazardous, as far as traffic is concerned.
Ae was against the rezoning.
The Engineering Assistant distributed maps of the area to the Coimnis-
sion. The street shown through the center of Lots 4, 5 and 6, Auditor's
Subdivision �108 was half way through the area, and he reminded the Comnis-
sion that Lot 5 was just reviewed, When asked if he could foresee any
problems, the Engineering Assistant said that this pattern would be necessary
to develop the area into single family dwellings, but if the development
would be in large pieces, perhaps there would not be any need for a street
down the middle.
Delphine Hentges, 1533 Onondaga St.: She asked how can they rezone
when everyone is against it. We would not have bought our places if we
thought that they would rezone. We are all against it and just the
petitioner is for rezoning. If iC goes through, then what?
Chairman Erickson said that anyone has the right to ask for whatever
they want to do. The Council is the ultimate authority on it. The Council
would have to say whether or not it would be rezoned. AfCer the hearing
before this body, there will be another hearing before the City Council at
which time the public is re-notified.
Thomas E. Marxen, 773 83rd Avenue N.E.t He asked if the cul de sac on
Lots 5 and 6 would still go through and was informed the land has been
dedicated and the street would. Then he asked what kind of sCreet Onondaga
would be. Chairman Erickson said he assumed he was referring to the differ-
ence between residential and industrial. Streets that have multiple dwellings
do not have to have a heavier design.
Mr. Robert Locker: I heard it mentioned that if it zemains residential,
a street would have to be put through there. Why would it have to go through
there? Darrel Claxk answered that gerhaps some day they may want to divide
their property into smaller lots. The plans we are looking at would provide
access. All this plan does is to tell us whexe the street could go i£ they
desire to put it in.

Plannina, Cotmnission MeetinQ - Februar� 13 1969 PaQe 3
Mrs. John R. Doyle, 1651 Onondaga St.: What kind of buildings did they
plan to put on this land?
Mr. Nelson answered that they did not have any specific kind in mind yet.
MOTION by Myhra, seconded by Mittelstadt, that the Planning Commission
close the public hearing of ZOA �69-02, George M. Nelson, of the N'� of
Lot 30 and the N'� of Lot 31, Auditor's Subdivision d6129, to be rezoned Pxom
R-1 to R-3A. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, the motion carried unanimously.
MOTION by Mittelstadt, seconded by Myhra, that the sequest for rezoning,
ZOA �69-02, George M. Nelson, of the N'� of Lot 30 and N'� of Lot 31, Auditor's
Subdivision ��129 from R-1 to R-3A be denied.
Bill Einnerty, SQ40 Oakland Ave., Mpls.: What sight does the property
owner have in the event it is not usable for residential and could not be
rezoned?
The Chairman answered he did not think, for one thing, the particular
cost for residential is prohihitive. He thought if the petitioner had some
facts that it would be a hardship, they could bring it to the Council.
Mx. Finnerty then asked that, as far as the rezoning, fiow far can the
objections come from. He was told that anyone had the right to voice their
opinion and that the City notifies owners within 300 feet.
Mr. Mittelstadt said the reasons for his motion of denial were that
there were 19 names on the petition against rezoning and these people do not
want to see apaxtment complexes. He found no hardship in this case. He
would agree to the rezoning, but felt that in this area, which is right next
to major industrial complex, it should remain as is. He £elt the proposed
streets should be put in within tha next few years. The access is needed
and should be put in.
Mr. Myhra said he thought where there is an industrial area, apartments
probab.ly would serve a buffer purpose. We have that on 73rd Avenue now, and
if we were to rezone the northern part of the lots, we are actually getting
out of that category and are getting into something like spot zoning.
The Chairman added that the use of the area is substantially single
family residences. He could not see, at this point, the need to rezone
inasmuch as-the Planning Co�nission recently approved a lot split for single
family residence. He felt it should remain on R-1.
Mx. Fitzpatrick commented on the £act that many people at the meeting
tonight are from McKiniey and Lakeside which is £urther away. He wondered if
there was a reason for those living closer not being present. Several
members of Che audience volunteered the information that there were valid
reasons for four of the neighbors not being present.
Mr. Locker said that he was new in the area in the past two months. His
1 home was on Onondaga and I,akeside. He did not know anyone other than those
right near him. He moved from St. Paul because of apartments and the traffic
they generate.

Mr. Momchilovich brought a plan of the area for the Planning Commission
to atudy.
Eugene Lang, 1132 Mississippi St.; His home is on the South side of
Mississippi Street and he has lived there 20 years. He asked if Che property
North of Mississippi is zoned R-1, single family and wondered if commercial
would be requested.
The Chairman said there has been no request for anything other than
what is requested now. Mr. Momchilovich discussed his plans with Mr. Lang.
MOTION by Mittelstadt, seconded by Jensen, that the Planning Co�ission
close the public hearing, ZOA �i68-11, Louis Momchilovich, of the West 47 feet
of the South 120 feet of Lot 10, Auditor's Subdivision fi88 to be rezoned

MOTION by Jensen, seconded by Mittelstadt, that the Planning Commission
recommend approval of the rezoning request, Z0A 9�68-11, Louis Momchilovich,
of the West 47 feet of the South 120 feet of Lot 10, Auditor's Subdivision
#88, to rezone fzom R-1 to R-3A as it being the logical expansion of the
R-3A zoning previously granted to Mr. Momchilovich allowing him to make
better use of his property, and subject to the signature of the fee owner.
Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, the motion carried unanimously.
The Chaisman stated that the Planning Co�uission should have the signa-
ture of the fee owner since Mr. Momchilw ich does not have the title to
this property.

Plannix�¢ CouQnission MeetinQ - Februarv 13 1969 Pa�e 5
Mr. Swanson was present and stated he would be glad Co answer any ques-
tions. He distributed maps to the Commission.
The Plats & Subdivisions-Streets & Utilities Subcommittee at their
meeting of February 6, 1969 recommended approval of the Preliminary Plat
with the stipulation that a 20 foot utility easement be provided from the
proposed cul de sac East to East River Road.
Mr'. Swanson volunteered he was not able to contact both parties for
th� easements as yet.
Benedict Novak, 115 71st Way N.E.: He said he owned Lot 34 which was
south and west of the proposed preliminary plat. He has access to his
property over a small road maintained by the school £or deliveries to
their building. He was worried about the assessments because of the south
aud east frontage.
Daxrel Clark said the school had sewer and water along the south line
� for the school which is not used by the residents in that area. if they
used the lines, Chey would be assessed. He had talked with Jim Hedren
who stated this idea was brought before them in 1951 of dedicating more
1 right of way. The school board now would like to see a topog map before
final apgroval,
Chairman Erickson asked the Novak's if they plan to divide their lot
and would the proposed preliminary plat fit in with their iutuze plans.
Mr. Novak said he did not know how much would be taken off for a road. If
the proposal was for 25 feet, the south side of his lot is the Eront yard
and would noC leave him enough 1and.
Mrs. Novak said they come in off East River Road on what used to be
71st, but now it is not exactly a street but an easement. Mr. Jensen said
the school board plows this easement to get supplies into the school.
Mr. Nocak asked if he could have the cost of street, cuxb, sewer and
water.
Darrel Clark told him if his property were divided into two lots facing
72nd and the present house facing the proposed north-south street, sewer
and water would be assessed on frontage only. The street would be assessed
along the frontage and ane third on the side yard. His lot may be large
enough to divide into three parcels.
Mr. Novak said the street is 100 feet from the house and if you took
anything more off for the street, there would not be enough left.
Mr. Jensen told him that, depending what the action of the school board
is, it might not be necessary to ask for any additional right of way on the
south side of his lot. There was a short discussion regarding the present
cost of assessments.
The people living north of the proposed plat said they bought their
property hecause they did not want to live in somebody's backyard. They
couldn't afford more taxes either. The wells and cesspools have given
them no trouble.

Planning Commission Meeting - February 13, 1969 Page 6

MOTION by Mittelstadt, seconded by Jensen, that the Planning Commisszon
table the discussion on this public hearing, P.S. �69-01, until the school
board makes appearance this evening. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye,
the motion carried unanimously.

ZOA �68-13, HArS1ERLUND ENTERPRISESy INC.,
. North 903 feet of East 3/4 of NE� of NE'�
200), Rezone from R-1 to R-3A,
Mr.'Myhra said one of the questions to be answered was that of
utilities. Darrel Clark said he did check the capacity of both sewer and
c.�ater and there would be no problem serving a complex of this multitude.
Mr. Myhra added that there was some question about part of this land
being deeded to the City for park, and asked if the Planning Comnission
should be taking any kind of official action on this until they had some
feeling from the City in this regard as the petitioner is willing to deed
it.
The Chairman of the Parks & Recreation, Mr. Fitzpatrick, stated there
are areas West that are under consideration for parks and some have already
been purchased such as the Eontaine and Ing Siverts parcels.
Mx. Jensen said it is i,mportant from the standpoint of Rice Creek
that the creek bottom be maintained in its present form. It should not be
filled and no structure should be allowed to be built on that creek bottom
where it would impede the flow of water. This channel is xequired to carry
the water. It is really a trench because it has been eroded from time to
time. There followed a discussion of the elevations of the creek. Clark
said that looking at the topog, Central-Avenue is 863 feet above sea level.
The Co�ission discussed allowing the rezoning of the land North of the
creek and keeping Che creek bottom and bluffs in their existing condition.
AY this point, Mr. Nordstrom was asked to bring up his plans for dis-
cussion and study.
The Commission took an informal poll of the members to detexmine what
the feeling was as to the rezoning itself being proper. Mr. Myhra said he
was not really pleased with the layout of the suggested apartment complex.
He added it does seem we have an axea about as ideal for multiples as we
are going to find what with Onan's on the north. Chairman Erickson agreed.
Mr. Jensen wondered about the-road along-the New Sr3ghton side. Darrel
Clark said a road would not serve any more lots, but would carry tsaffic
from one side of the creek to another. He had not heard o£ any plans to
extend Stinson Boulevard.
A discussion of the watershed area of Rice Creek was asked by Mr.
Jensen. A dam could be put in to hold the water up and a pond near Central
Avenue. The report of the flood plain information survey, which wi11 be
done by the Corps of Engineexs, will be ready by the first of July.. Mr.-.
Ankrum said that last yeax we were not included, but now we should be the
first one this year.
'

'
�
PlanninQ Co�ission MeetinQ - Februarv 13, 1469 Pa�e 7
Continuing, Mr. Jensen said he thought it is important for the City to
acquire creek bottoms when available and without being concerned hy usefulness
as developed park. In the opinion of the Chairman, the City should acquire
bottom land, but not necessarily for park purposes. -
In answer to the question of the construction schedule, Mr. Nordstrom
said he had been to City Ha11 a number of times and is ready to go ahead --
financial coamiittments have been made.
Chai�an Esickson said that in oxdes to get something moving, he would
suggest that the property south of the 860 contour line be deeded to the City
and that no construction of residential buildings be allowed below the 880
line. The City would be provided with access easements needed from the
property,
One of the objections by Mr. Myhra was the use of automobile parking
, ail the way around the complex for a buffer. Mr. Nordstrom said he would
work on that.

It was felt that a slope easement should be requested so that the 20 foot
vertical hank of the cYeek would not be distur6ed and that the area north of
the 860 be the zoning boundary. This would amount to about 10% of the whole
area. Darrel Clark wondered if this could be handled by agreement rathex
than easement,
�
MOTION by Jensen, seconded by Fitzpatrick, that the Planning Co�nission
reco�end approval of the rezoning request, ZOA �68-13, Haffinerlund Enter-
prises, Inc., Clarence Nordstrom, Applicant, of the North 903 feet of the
East 3/4 of the NE� of the NE'� of Section 13 (Parcel 10 and 200) to rezone
from R-1 to R-3A subject to the following conditions: That the petitioner
agrees to sell to the City of Fridley the remainder of the total parcel South
of the North 813 feet for the sum of one dollar and other considerations as
previously offered and that an easement be provided over the South 160 feet
of the North 813 feet for purposes of maintaining slope and that a suitable
access easement be provided to the previously mentioned parcel which the
City is to acquire, location to be negotiated between the ownex and the City.
The Planning Co�nission does not feel that the plan as presented is necessarily
a part of this action. It was noted that the petitioner should be granted
enough land to accommodate 312 apartment units at 2,500 gquare feet per unit.
Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, the motion carried unanimously.
(3. Public HearinQ: Pronosed Preliminarv Plat P.S. ��b9-01, Brentwood Estates)
Chairman Erickson co�ented that rfr. Jim Thayer and Mr. Gordon Sangster,
members of the school board were now present.
MOTION by Mittlestadt, seconded by Jensen, that the Planning Commission
remove from table the proposed preliminary plat, P.S. �k69-02.
Mr. �hayer said it was very difficuLt for him and Mr. Sangster to makz
a decision regarding the giving of an easement for road purposes. The
school site of Riverwood School is rather small and the property has to be
utilized to Che fullest. Any amount they would dedicate to the City would
reduce the playground area. They would have to know what the specific request
'
�
�
L
Planning qommission Meeting - Februarv 13, 1469 PaRe 8
is, what the amount of the assessments would be, and on the basis of that,
if it is what we want to do in that area.
If you were talking of aligning it with a portion o£ 72nd Avenue, it
will be an additional 22 feet, the Engineering Assistant said. In answer
to the question o£ the size of the cul de-sac, he said that it has a 50 fooC
xadius. There could be flexibility where turn around would be located to
allow maximum use £or school purposes.
, Mr. Thayer said the easement to the north of the school was used far
delivery trucks. If the deliveries came to the front doox, they would have
to be carted to the back.
'
�
The Chairman sai:d he did not see how the Planning Coffinission could allow
a plat of this type to go in if there were no way to get to it.
The mpnbers o£ the school board requested a topog map for their study.
They requested the matter be held up until March llth, the next meeting of
the school board when Mr. Hansen will be back in town. They asked that the
Engineering Department make an approximation as to how the property will be
assessed.
� It was explained by parrel Clark that there would be more work involved
in dete�taining assessments than the topog map. It would be very difficult
to make an assessment figure. There was a discussion elaborating on this
problem.
Mr. Jensen believed that Councfl should require that the School 6e
treated as they would any other property owner.
The School has already put in water and sewer services.
MOTION by ,7ensen, seconded by Mittelstadt, that the Planning Commission
continue the public hearing, P.S. ��69-01, Brentwood Estates, Thomas R.
Swanson of the rear 431,6 feet of Lot 35 and rear 401.9 feet of Lot 33,

RESOLUTION N0. 3�
RESOLUTION ON PROPOSED NEW METROPOLITAN TAX PROGRAM
WHEREAS, the Metropolitan Section of the League of Minnesota Municipalities has
proposed legislation for a new metropolitan tax program.
WHEREAS, such tax program would effect a change in tax which would purportedly
reduce existing fiscal disparities between local taxing units in the
metropolitan area to finance varying needs for educational and other
local services.
WHEREAS, the new tax structure would add additional income tax, sales tax, or
property tax, etc., withi� the seven county metropolitan area.
�,
_ _ 1R�
WHEREAS, the State and Federal Government already have programs designed to assist
local governments and schools and such programs are basically designed
on a need basis.
WHEREAS, the spreading of the tax base over a seven county area penalizes Cities
who have worked hard to create a greater industrial and commercial tax
base and rewards communities who have chosen for environmental and ease
of local service reasons to remain primarily residential.
GIHEREAS, Minnesota already ranks seventh in our Nation in per capita, including
State and local taxes, and additional taxes, peculiar to the metropolitan
area, could conceivably cause an exodus of people, impede growth, create
an adverse labor climate, promulgate loss of industry and commercial
enterprises and curtail expansion and discourage construction of new
facilities in the seven county metropolitan complex.
WHEREAS, there is no provision to measure the operational efficiency and austerity
, in budgeting of a community receiving the local tax revenues from another
community, thus the tax would again be unfair in nature. �
�OW THEREFORE, be it resolved by the City Council of the City of Fridley,�While realizing
fiscal disparities do exist,�goes on record as being against the present
legislation proposed in the new seven county tax program as proposed by
' the Metropolitan Section of the Minnesota League of Municipalities, as
being detrimental to the overall economic advancement and welfare of the
metropolitan area.
