WORMSBECKER Northwest quarter of riorthwest quarter, except north 16.6 acres and southwest quarter of northwest quarter of Section 2; also the north 34.68 acres of northeast quarter of northeast quarter of Section 3, to rezone from M-2 to R-3. The City Engineer said that the Planning Commission had recommended denial of this request at this time because of the proposed open space program for the area, because the study on multiple dwella.ngs was not complete, and because the petitioner was requesting a definite decision one way or another. Mr. Ralph Wormsbecker sa.td he would like to hear the Council's opinions on this proposal. He said they had done a lot of work on this property to see what would be the best use. He said they have found the industrial develop- ment going slowly, and felt some parts should be commercial, but first they would have to get people into the neighborhood to enhance the value of the other property. He said that the owner of the property to the south of his also wants to zone for multiples, and this wi11 not hurt the open space area. He said he would put in the sewer and water under the City's supervision so there would not have to be a bond outlay. He would like to get all the pro- perty zoned, but if the City wants some open land, they were not opposed to doing 7ust the one area at this time. He pointed the parcel out on the map for the Council. � Councilman Lieb1 said that he recommended that this be tabled to the next Council Meeting so that the full Council is aware of the proposal. MOTION by Councilman Lieb1 to table this rezoning request to the next regular Council Meeting of September 2, 1969.

South half of Lot 1, Block l, Spring Valley Addition. The City Engineer said that the Planning Commission had recommended denial of this Lot Split request because of a necessary 25 foot road easement which would make a lot which is not suitable for two buildable lots. Mr. Wittman said that his neighbor owns the north half of Lot 1 and has in- dicated that he would buy 50 feet from him which would leave Mr. Wittman with 75 feet. He asked if he would be able to get a building permit £or a house. � He said the Planning Commission had turned down two 75' lots because of a possible easement. Councilman Liebl asked a.f his neighbor wi11 be able to utilize the 50' if it is sold to him. Mr. Wittman said that he already has been using it for a garden and parking. Mr Wittman asked if he would be able to build as there is no City sewer. The City Engineer said that the area wi11 be developing and he felt rt would be bad planning to let Mr. Wrttman put in , � k-� REGULAR COUNCIL Mg'ETING OF AUGUST 1S, 1969 PAGE 5 a cesspool. The City Engineer pointed out the proposed plans for road � dedication and back lot utility easements. Mr. Wittman said he feels he owns 150 feet, as this easement does not exist. Councilman Samuelson said that maybe there will be a street going east and west someday (approximately 64i-,, Avenue) and right of way will have to be given for that street. Mr. Wzttman said that if he sold to his neighbor, he will still have 75 feet and wanted to know if he could get a building permit to build. Councilman Samuel- son said that this was a corner lot so he cvould have to retain 80'. He said there would be a utility easement on the north line because they may need storm sewer and NSP poles would have to be put in. The City Engineer said that this easement on the north line would have to be given while he still owned the property. Mr. Wittman asked if he gave an easement for 64� Avenue if he would still be responsible for the taxes. The City Engineer said that if he deeds 25' for the street to the City of Fridley, he would not pay the taxes on it. The City Engineer said that there is no sewer line on Arthur Street now but there is one on 64th and Misstssippi. He questioned whether the Council would allow a cesspool or require a hookup to sewer services. He said if he connected, he would have to follow Arthur Street and this would benefit the property on the east and they do not know how this will develop. Councilman Samuelson said his suggestion would be that he could put in a cesspool, but would have to sign an agreement to hook up the sanitary sewer as soon as it was available. Mayor Kirkham said he did not like the idea of a cesspool because of the high water table. � MOTION by Councilman Samuelson to grant the lot split upon the granting of a 5 foot utility easement and the dedication of 25 feet along the south portion of the lot to the City of Fridley for street purposes retaining 80 feet north/south frontage on Arthur Street. The building permit to be predicated upon an agreement that as soon as sanitary sewer is available the owner will hook up to the City system and that a11 easements are on record with the City of Fridley. Seconded by Councilman Liebl. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, �layor Kirkham declared the motion carried. 5.

LOT SPLIT REQUEST• L.S. #69-20, FRANK DIRCZ: Combine 10 feet of Lot 29 with Lot 30, Block 1, Plymouth Addition. The City Engineer pointed out that the Planning Commission had recommended denial of this lot split Councilman Lieb1 said that the petitioner had gone to the Board of Appeals first because of variances that were needed, the Board of Appeals had granted the variances and the Council had accepted their , Minutes. He asked Mr. Dircz what his plans were for the lot split. Mr. Dircz presented pictures to the Council of other 40' lots in the area and also his tax statement for the property. Councilman Samuelson pointed out that the minimum corner lot size is 80 foot frontage. Mr. Dircz stated that the 1ot was useless to hun now with the high taxes. He said that he has not paid the $40D assessments, and if he cannot do something with the lot he would have to let it go. Mayor Kirkham asked him if at the time he &ought the __ p REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF AUGUST I8� 1969 PAGE 6 � property, he had thought he eventually would be able to build on it. Mr. Da.rcz said that Columbia Heights had lots of that size in the area, and he thought land would get scarcer and he would be able to build. Councilman Liebl asked if anyone had ob�ected to this plan. Mr. Dircz replied that the neighbors did not ob7ect and presented the Council with the petition the Planning Commission had received. PETITION #37-1969 IN FAVOR OF L.S. #69-20, FRANK DIRCZ MOTION by Councilman Liebl to receive Petition #37-1969 of ad7oining property owners granting approval to build a surtable home. Seconded by Councilman Samuelson. Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried. Councilman Liebl asked Mr. Dircz what size home he would build. Mr. Dircz replied, giving the approximate measurements of the house he had in mind. Mayor Kirkham said that to be fair to Mr, Dircz he thought this should be brought back at the next regular Council Meeting with a fu11 Council as he did not feel he could vote for it and it would fail. He saa.d the City has minimum requirements set up and a lot of only 45 feet would be a rarity in the middle of the block, let alone a corner lot. Mr. Dircz asked how the City would maintain the lot if he was forced to 1et it go. Mayor Kirkham said that was another problem, and did not beax on the lot split. , MOTION by Councilman Samuelson to table the consideration of the Lot Split Request L.S. #69-20 to the Regular Council Meeting of September 2, 1969 Seconded by Councilman Liebl. Upon a voice vo±e, there being no nays, Mayor - Kirkham declared the motion carried. 7. LOT SPLIT REQUEST: L.S. #69-10� NORTH AIR HOME ASSOCIATION� J.R. PLEMEL: South 150 feet of Lot 18, Brookview Addition sub�ect to road easement over south 50 feet. The City Engineer said that the Planning Commission had recommended approval of the lot split request. He pointed it out on the map, and commented that this area has a drainage problem and the only way it can be drained is by going to the Creek someway. He pointed out that this lot split will aggrevate the water problem because they plan to extend their parking lot. The Council dis- cussed the drainage problem in this area. The Acting City Attorney said that he was sure the Knights of Columbus would go along with any solution the Council can find to resolve the "lake" on 68th Avenue and Lucia Lane. Councilman Samuelson asked if it would be wise to hold another Public Hearing for storm sewer. The City Engineer said that he thought it was advisable, but storm sewers are not popular. Councilman Liebl said he thought it was important to solve the drainage problem first. The City Manager said that this area is the source of many complaints because of water. Councilman Samuelson suggested a Public Hearing be held in October to give the Administration more time for engineering studies. The City Engineer said that they were ready now as this has been brought to the Counca.l before. � MOTION by Councilman Samuelson to set up a Public Hearing for the construction of storm sewer services to the 68th Avenue and Channel Road area and that the Lot Split Request L.S. #69-10 be tabled until the Public Hearing is completed.
