The motion was seconded and upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Kirkham declared the amendment carried. UPON THE MOTION, all voting aye, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried. VISITORS: Mr. George Otterdahl, 5770 Madison Street: Regarding the extension of Jefferson Street (Project St. 1970-1) Mr. George Otterdahl said that he was present representing Mr. Edward Marciniak concerning the extension of Jefferson Street and the assessments that would be levied. The City Engineer said that as the Council recal].ed, Mr. Marciniak was to receive $50 for an easement he would grant the City that is necessary for the completion of the extension of the street. The Council received a petition from the property owners requesting that they not be assessed. The Council reaffirmed their position that these people on the east side of Jefferson Street must be assessed. Mr. Marciniak then said that he Wou�� r�Qt gi.ve the easement unless the assessments were waived. This property was under condemnation, but it wa�c taken REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 15, 1970 , PAGE 2 ' back out when Mr. Marciniak said that he would agree to the $50 for the ease- ment. Mr. Otterdahl said that he understood that the petition was received, but not acted upon. Mayor Kirkham said that this was not true, the petition was received, but the Council decided that there should be no change in assessment policy. The Council chose not to comply with the'request in the petition, and assess the same as is done in other areas. Mr. Otterdahl pointed out that � of the street was given to the developer� Councilman Sheridan said that it was vacated. The City Engineer showed the street in question on the screen, and pointed out that if the assessment was waived for the people on the east side, on Madison Street, the assessment on the people on the west side of Jefferson would be very heavy. Mayor Kirkham said that the established policy would be followed, as was done in similar instances. Mr. Otterdahl felt that this was a different situation. Councilman Liebl said that when the hearing was held, the people vehemently stated that when the developer put in the plat, there was an agreement that the people on the east side of the street would not be assessed.. If the Council did make such a statement, this Council owes it to the people to research the old Minutes to try to find evidence of such an agreement. He pointed out that it is the people on the west side that get the benefit. The people on the east side have already been assessed completely for a street in front of their homes. He said that he thought that the people understood that there would be no assessment because � of the street was given to the developer, He added that this is only a temporary street with no concrete curbing and only a thin mat. MOTION by Councilman Liebl to table this item to the Meeting of July 6, 1970 and instruct the Administration to research the Minutes when the plat was first filed to see if these people have a valid argument. Seconded by Councilman Sheridan with the comment that he thought that it was in 1954 or 1955 that Donnay first started working in this area. He said that he had s�ae material at his home that he would make available to the Council on this item. There followed a short discussion to determine whether the next Council Meeting should be on the 6th of July, which is a holiday for the Administration and staff, or on the 7th. It was agreed that the Council Meeting could be held on the 6th of July, even though City Hall would be closed during the day. UPON THE MOTION, all voting aye, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried. Brothen� Inc., 7501 Commerce Lane - Change in Landscaping Plan Mr. Rolf Brothen said that he was scheduled to appear at the last Council Meeting, but at the last minute was called out of town. He said that he has changed his landscaping plan from what was originally approved, and has received the letter sent out by the Administration at the direction of the Council. He said that he must apologize for not coming before the Council for a request for the change, but he felt that this was an improvement over the plan that was approved, and would not be a detriment to the area. He said that last fall, he did plant some shrubbery and intended to sod, but an early freeze precluded it. Those shrubs that he planted close to the right of way winter killed due to the salt and the snowplows. This is what prompted his change in plan. He felt that the rock treatmen� that he had planned for the front would weather nicely in the severe weather conditions of Minnesota. He saic� that he has looked at his neighbors sod and they seem to have experienced some unfortunate weathering also, and in his opinion, did not look too well. H� �i��,t th�� 1�hQugh �od would look nice ' ' ' � ' ' L__1 REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 15, 1970 PAGE 3 right now with all the rain in the early spring, it would not look as nice in July and August. He felt that he would like to put in something more stable, so he contacted a landscaping firm and they helped him with his plan. In his opinion the resulting plan is an improvement, rather than a detriment. He said that the Minutes of the Council Meeting of July 8th refer to Holiday, and pointed out that the amount of traffic that Holiday has cannot be compared to that that Brothen has. He said that they have about 9 employees coming into the establish- ment, and there are about 4 deliveries a day. To make a comparison of Brothen with a retail establishment would be unfair. He said that as to the weeds that would grow up through the rocks, they plan on using three mill polyethylene on the ground to prevent them. He said that they have spent about five times what would normally be spent on maintaining a yard and he would request some re- consideration. He added that just because this plan is different, does not mean that it is ugly. He felt that the Council should consider using some sort of rock treatment in other industrial areas for a good clean effect. Mayor Kirkham said that he did not mean to compare by his reference to Holiday, ' but used it as an example of a rock treatment that deteriorated quickly. It would look nice at first, but would req�ixe a lot of work to keep the rocks contained and the weeds from coming through. ' Mr. Brothen pointed out that rock treatments of considerable size have been used successfully in other areas of the Twin Citi�s withvut any problems. He said that because of the severe heat in the summer and the salt in the winter, he ' felt that his plan for rocks could be properly kept, and if not, would welcome a reprimand from the Council. He felt that he should be given an opportunity to try something new. He said that it was never their intention to ciraumvent the ' Council. He said that he felt that his plan would enhance the area and felt that he should have the opportunity to see if it was not an attractive compli- ment. He said that the plan was for the front 15' where the shrubs winter killed, then the pattern continues down to the southwest corner. He suggested ' that the Council could set this aside for a year to allow for a comparison of his plan with those that have sod during the summer months of July and August when yards are most unattractive. ' ' � � ' , Councilman Liebl said that the Council has tried to develop Commerce Park into a desirable environment for commercial enterprises to locate. This is why the requirements on building permits are so stringent and the Council expects compliance. He said that Brothen Inc. is the only firm that did not comply with the requirements of the building permit. He said that he toured the area and in his opinion, there would be rocks strewn all over and would be hard to contain. Councilman Liebl added that when the building permit was granted Mr. Brothen stated that he would do what the permit stipulated. He felt that there was a green strip needed. He asked how could the Council allow this man to not comply while insisting on compliance by others. Mr. Brothen said that he must apologize for not coming before the Council, however, they did spend an extra $2,000. Councilman Liebl said that an applicant is committed when he is granted a building permit and must comply. He said that the proposal that was submitted with the building permit application was acceptable to the Council and he would like to see him live up to it. He said that he felt that Brothen Inc. has been given enough time during the visitors portion of the Council Meeting and he would like to see them comply with the ordinance. Mr. Brothen reiterated his previous arguments, and commented that his neighbors lawns are not the epitomy of what landscaping should be. He felt that he acted in good faith, and that hie plans would not be damaging to the City of Fridley in any way. N� ,,, _ REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 15, 1970 PAGE 4 Mayor Kirkham said that further apologies are not necessary, and that he realized that aesthetics are a matter of judgment. Iie said that the point was that he agreed to a certain plan, then did not abide by it. He felt that for the overall aesthetics of the community, that applicants must follow through with items agreed upon. He then read Mr. Brothen Councilman Harris' memorandum to the Mayor dated June 15, 1970 which states that he also must insist on compliance with the building permit plan. Councilivan Harris also pointed out in his memorandum that there is a mobile home that has been illegally parked and would like to have this moved. Mr. Brothen said that this would be moved within the month. Mayor Kirkham said that his position would be that Mr. Brothen is doing what he, personally, likes and what looks good to him; however in the Mayor's opinion in the past rocks have not proven satisfactory, and there is a lot of maintenance. Mr. Brothen asked that this be tabled until the plan goes through a few season changes, then make their deeision. Mayor Kirkham said that this could be done, if a Councilman chose to make such a motion. He, personally, felt that the plan should be adhered to. Councilman Sheridan pointed out that there has been a complaint from a member of the community. He said that he has seen rock used in landscaping' areas, although not in large areas such as Mr. Brothen suggests. It is usually used more along sidewalks or around shrubs. He said that he would have to agree with Councilman Liebl and Mayor Kirkham. He questioned whether there could be some modification of the plan to use some of the rocks that he already has hauled in, and incorporate them into his original plan, so that his loss would not be too great. He wondered whether the rocks could be used between the walk and the building. The landscaping plan is a requirement of a building permit and they are controlled by ordinance. This is why it should have come back for re- evaluation. Mr. Brothen asked if it would be possible to study this with some other body, such as the Planning Commission. Mayor Kirkham felt that inasmuch as this is a violation of the building permit, the Council should be the ruling body. He pointed out that there have already been four Councilmen that have expressed dissatisfaction with the request. Mr. Brothen said that to remove the rocks would be an exhorbitant cost. Mayor Kirkham asked if he would care to try to modify his plan to try to satisfy the Council and himself. Councilman Sheridan pointed out that if there was not already occupancy, he would not get an occupancy permit. He said that he felt that if a plan is not followed, they would be opening the door for anyone .in the community to do the same. He said that when he first looked at the property, there was a pile of rocks, now he has gone to the expense of spreading them. Mr. Brothen said that he hoped = that it would look attractive to the Council once it was spread out. � Councilman Breider said that he has talked of sod being hard to maintain. He asked what kind of maintenance he would give it. Mr. Brothen said that he would do as his neighbors do. The appearance of their sod is what prompted his attempt to come up with a better plan. Councilman Breider said that he has talked of winter kill of the sod, yet when he drives through Edina, there are lush green strips that are doing very nicely and the traffic is very heavy. Mr. Brothen said that this is not the general rule in the neighborhood he is located in. Councilman Breider said that he would appreciate a green strip rather than all that rock. He suggested as Councilman Sheridan did, that it could be used in isolated areas. � REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 15, 1970 ' 1 �J �I' �I ' PAGE 5 MOTION by Councilman Liebl, in an attempt to meet the applicant half way, to brinq this back at the next regular Council Meeting of July 6, 1970. Applicant to present a plan which incorporates the original plan and his plan to try to reach a compromise satisfactory to both the applicant and the Council. Mr. Brothen asked if there was anyone he could work with to guide him in what the Council would find acceptable. Councilman Liebl suggested that he could meet with the City Engineer. Mayor Kirkham commented that he did not feel that the City Engineer should be put in the position of a consultant. Mr. Brothen said that he need not be a consultant, but rather just point out any suggestions that would meet with the Council approval. COUNCILMAN HARRIS ARRIVED AT 8:35 P.M. Mayor Kirkham explained the motion before the table and Mr. Brothen outlined the reasons that prompted his actions to Councilman Harris. ' Councilman Harris said that he had looked at his neighbors property and they seem to be doing a reasonably good job. He said that he was up in that area and was appalled at what Mr. Brothen is suggesting. He felt that crushed rock is suitable , for driveways, but not for an entire front yard. He said that his business takes him to other business enterprises, and he has yet to see an al1 crushed rock front yard. He said that it appeared that Mr. Brotlzen did as he pleased. ' ' � � ' ' '� J �'I� ' THE MOTION was seconded by Councilman Breider. Upon a voice vote, Liebl and Breider voting aye, Harris, Sheridan and Kirkham voting nay, Mayor Kirkham declared �the motion FAILED. Mr...Brothen asked if there was any further appeal. The acting City Attorney (Mr. Wyman Smith in the absence of Leonard Juster) said that the Council has jurisdiction over building permits, and it would be a legislative matter to determine if the Council had acted arbitrarily or capriciously. In this instance, they are only insisting on what was agreed upon by both parties. ORDINANCE #459 - AN ORDINANCE AMENDIDiG SECTION 45.103 RELATING TO THE LOT AREA AND LOT WIDTH REQUIREMENTS FOR C-1, C-1S, C-2, C-2S: MOTION by Councilman Harris to adopt Ordinance #459 on second reading, waive the reading and order publication. Seconded by Councilman Sheridan. Upon a roll call vote, Breider, Sheridan, Kirkham, Liebl, and Harris voting aye, Mayor Kirkliam declared the motion carried unanimously. At this point the Council took up the item under the Building Standards - Design Control Meeting Minutes, as the lady present was pressed for time. CONSIDERATION OF A REQUEST TO MOVE A GARAGE FROM 3534 MARSHALL STREET N.E., MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA TO 685 GLENCOE STREET N.E., FRIDLEY, MINNESOTA, THE SAME BEING LOTS 25 AND 26, BLO�K S, RIVERVIEW HEIGHTS ADDITION, ANOKA COUNTY, MINNESOTA. (REQUEST BY CHESTER SCHACK, 3534 MARSHALL STREET N.E., MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA)• The City Engineer said that this request is for moving a garage onto their property and the Building Board recommended approval with some stipulations. Mrs. Schack said that her husband will be building their house and the plans have ' already been approved. She said that the reason the garage has no siding now was that they wanted to wait until thoY c�t�ld �ide it witY� the $ame siding as th, . . ... ... . . . A ' " � REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 15,1970 PAGE 6 house. The City Engineer asked if the house would be done this year. Mrs. Schack said that she was not sure. The Building Board said that they would give her 90 days to side the garage. Councilman Sheridan asked if the garage would be used in any way as living quarters and Mrs. Schack replied no. Councilman Liebl asked if she was agreeable to the stipulations and she replied that she was. Councilman Liebl asked if there were any objections and she said no, there were not. Councilman Breider asked if the Building Board had seen the plans for the house and Mrs. Schack said that they had. MOTION by Councilman Breider to concur with the Building Standards - Design Control Subcommittee and grant the request for Mrs. Schack to move a garage, subject to their stipulations. Seconded by Councilman Liebl. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried unanimously. DISCUSSION REGARDING ESTIMATE - D.M. NOYES CONSTRUCTION COMPANY: (PROJECT #93) The City Engineer handed the Council a list of the work completed to date and a copy of Estimate #10. � � __- ' MOTION by Councilman Liebl to authorize payment of Estimate #10 in the amount of $6,044.40, payable to D.M. Noyes Construction Company and their bonding company. Seconded by Councilman Breider. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried unanimously. DISCUSSION REGARDING ADDITIONAL STORM SEWER IN HARTM&Id CIRCLE: (ST. 1970-1) Councilman Breider said that it seemed that at the hearing, the majority of the people did not favor the additional storm sewer system being installed. He felt that as has been done in the past, the prevailing petition should guide the Council's decision. He pointed out that the City Engineer has stated that the drainage as originally engineered would drain the water, and the low spot would be taken care of. The City Engineer said that they would be receiving a minimal slope to the street and the water would eventually drain into the southeast corner. Councilman Liebl pointed out that first there was a petition fo�r an additional storm sewer system as some of the people felt that the additional cost would be money well spent. Then the Council received a petition against any additional storm sewer drainage system because these people felt that the plan as presented by the Engineering Department would take care of the water. He said that the vote showed that 13 people favored no additional system and 8 favored the increased system. He thought that about 40$ of tl�e people were present from the area. He recalled that there was a 7� difference in cost, and the cost without the increase would be about $12.50 per foot. Councilman Breider said that to his way of thinking, graded properly the problem would be taken care of. Councilman Liebl said that it was a problem of whether the people would be assessed $12.50 per foot of $13.50 per foot. He pointed out that for Horizon Drive the City Engineer advised that there should be some additional storm sewer work and he was very glad that it was done. • MOTION by Councilman Breider to reaffirm the Council position on the improvement of Hartman Circle and put in the street as originally engineered. Seconded by Councilman Sheridan. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried unanimously. � � �I, J � � , � � ;� LJ � u ' � L JI'� ' u REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 15, 1970 ADOPTION OF AGENDA: PAGE 7 ' Mayor Kirkham said that there were some items to add as follows: Under communications: B: NSP Transmission Report.

Mayor Kirkham suggested that the Council should meet June 22, 1970 at 5:00 P.M. on the Noyes matter, so they could also consider this item, when there is more information available.

NOYES CONSTRUCTION COMPANY - PROJECT #93: ' The City Engineer handed out a list of the work done in the past week and reported that the work done was in the nature of repairs. There was no testing done, so none of the work could be considered cosnpleted. The contractor did , not meet their payroll last week, and had a meeting with the bonding company today to see if they could get money from them to complete the job. He said that the City would continue on the previous basis, and if there is work . completed, the Consulting Engineer will submit an estimate at the Council ' Meeting next Monday night. ' ' ' !J 'I� � � , ' CONSIDERATION OF WATER LINE PROBLEM IN HICKORY DRIVE AREA: ST. 1970-1: The City Engineer reported that some of the joints have been dug up and a cast iron pipe representative suggested the use of an alloy type of bolt, and wrapping all the joints with polyethylene. He said that one section of 4" pipe is being replaced with a 6" pipe for ease in flushinq. He said that hopefully, with this treatment, the line should last for 20 - 30 years. Councilman Sheridan asked if the pipe was affected. The City Engineer said that it was not. He had a specialist check the pipe and his feeling was that just the joints should be replaced. He has asked for three written quotes, the lowest of which is from G.L. Contracting Campany in the amount of $4662.00. They are the contractor putting in the N.S.S.S.D. lines. He said that the other two quates were over $5000 and if there had not been a quote under $5000, the City would have been required to let bids.

This divides the land up, and mak�es 3.72 acres available to the City for purchase. They have taken this to their Board and they will sell this 3.72 acres to the City of Fridley for $8,000. He added that the Board was anxious for a reply. Mayor Kirkham said that in his opinion the City should proceed on this basis, and acquire the property.

The Council and audience joined in saying the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag. ROLL CALL: PAGE 17 THOSE PRESENT: Councilmen Sheridan, Liebl, & Breider OTHERS PRESENT: City Manager, Homer Ankrum; City Assessor, Mervin Herrmann; City Appraisers, Leon Madsen & Waiter Mulcahy; County Appraiser, Kenneth Kobs; and Gorden Starkey, County Personal Property Division. THOSE ABSENT: Mayor Kirkham, Councilman Harris Mr. Jim Thayer, 377 66th Avenue NE, thought the valuation on his home was too ' high. Mr. Sheridan asked what Mr. Thayer's present valuation was. Mr. Herrm ann said that it was $30,480. Mr. Sheridan asked Mr. Herrm ann to explain this increase. Mr. Herrmann then said that we have revalued District 14 and the values have increased approximately 25%. Mr. Thayer also brought up that last , year his valuation was $23,835, and why should his valuation go up $7,000 in one year. Mr. Herrmann then noted that an addition was valued at only 80x complete at the last assessment, four years ago, and this year it is at 100%. ' Mr. Thayer then asked why there was an increase in his taxes last year, and it was explained that there was an increase in land values only,which are increased every two years. Mr. Thayer asked if there was anything else added besides the ' addition that would increase his value. Mr. Herrmann said that there was nothing else added. So it was the increase in size and the completion of the addition that raised his house value. Mr. Thayer asked what part of the $30,480 is land. Mr. Herrmann said $5,220 for land and $25,260 for structure. Mr. Thayer said , that this was a pretty significant increase in value but in view of the explanations given, he would accept it. ' ' ' I _J ' ' Mrs. Ervin Layland of 5331 5th Street asked what her property was valued at. Mr. Herrmann said the value is $13,084. Mrs. Layland said she has only received an offer of $8,900 when she tried to sell it and the renters she gets are not dependable. She could not see why she should pay almost $800 taxes. Mr. Herrmann said there is a value of $3300 on the land and this is a 10% increase. It was noted that this particular house is in an area that had a blanket percentage increase on the structure. Mr. Sheridan said that it would be his recarmendation to ask the County and City Assessors to go to Mrs. Layland's house and reassess it. Mr. Sheridan said that Mr. Herrmann should let her know if the $13,080 value should stay as it is or if it will be reduced. Mr. Sheridan said that if the $13,080 value is lef t as is, P�1►�s. Layland could pay half her tax in protest and this would requi're the State to come out and appraise the house to determine if the value placed on it by the appraiser and approved by the County is correct. They will abate it if it is not correct. ' ' Board of Equalization Meeting of June 25, 1970 PAGE 18 ' Mr. Floyd C. Bradley of 5861 West Moore Lake Drive asked what the value is on his apartment building at 5900 22 Street. Mr. Herrmann said that the county values all apartment buildings and service stations. Mr. Ken Kobs , said that the market value is $45,175 and last year was $44,460. Mrs. Bradley asked how the increase was determined. Mr. Kobs said that the structure went down $5 and the land went up $700. Mr. & Mrs. Bradley also questioned the ' valuation on their home on West Moore Lake Drive and Mr. Herrmann said that the homes in that area went up approximately 20%. The last valuation of their house was in 1966. The land value went up, however, in 1968. ' I,� ' ' Mr. Clarence Grandy, 7415 Concerto Curve, thought his tax was too high in comparison with the house at 7430 Tempo Terrace, which is larger in size. But it was f ound that Mr. Grandy's house is a new house, built in 1969, and appraised using the 1970 rates; whereas, 7430 Tempo Terrace is seven years old and a bianket percentage increase of 13% was put on the structure. Mr. Madsen also mentioned the fact that we're operating under a handicap when we_have to make blanket percentage increases because we're not going to have as good an equalization on these properties as those we do physically. Mr. Grandy's home will be revalued along with all the homes in Melody Manor in 19Z1. , There being no further questions, Mr. Sheridan adjourned the meeting at 8:45 P.M. , The Abstract was signed by: Councilmen Sheridan, Liebl, & Breider.

CONSIDERATIOId OF BALANCE OF NEGOTIATZONS WITH PUBLIC WORKS LOCAL #49 ArID CITY FOR 1970: Councilman Liebl said that it aeemed tlzat there were faur new �pecific special classifications set up. The City Manager said that before there was specified a liqht equipment operator and a heavy equipaoue�t oparator. This scheduie sets up some sort of unifornaity all the way across, and makes an interim rate. He pointed out that all the men must go through a trial period before stepping up to a higher scale. Councilman Liebl asked him if he felt that adopting this schedule of classification would enhance th� effectiveness of each depart�tent, and the City Manager said yes, he said that he was never a believer in the heavy equipment ratinq and that the new method of classi- fication is more appropos to municipal government. Councilman Sheridan w�ondered if there was enouqh spread between the trial period pay and the permanent basis. The City Manaqer said that it was 50� and was outlined in his memorandum. He said that they have tried to lay out s�ame continuity and pointed.eut that there would al�o be neqotiations on this at the a►etropolitan. level. Caincilman Sheridan asked how a man qualifias for a trial period. The City Manager said upon the recoaenendation of his foreman. Tb�re would al�o be a test to �test.these men out. If they are not qualified, they would revert to their previous poaition. Because a a►an has been on a job for a apecific amount of time does not mean that ha would autanaticaliy move up, there would have to be a vacancy. There are also requirements that a man would have to have a�peeific nwaber of hours on c�rtain equipaeAt. Councilman Breider said that there must be �nifoxm standards for steppinq up. He aaked t�kiat cri��sia was u�ed naw. The City Manager said �at the x'eca�mendation of the foreman and the departzaent head is used.

' CODTSIDERATIODI OF INTERT,M..PAY RAISES FOR NON.-UNION CITY EMPIAYEES: � l_J ' , ' �l i -1 �' ' � u ' ' The City Man�qer suggested that for those non-union emgloyees whose salaries are set by direct Council action in the budget, ather than himself, that a 2$ pay igarease be given to try to form �ome sort of.an equity with the union employees. It was not known at the time of_the budget adoption what was going to happen with the union wages. He added that.possi.bly some may have to cane from emergency fund�. Councilman Breider said that it appears that it will cover all non-union workers except the City Manager. The City Ddanaqer said yes. Councilman Breider asked how, at the present time, he arrives at the pa}r increases for-the non-union-people..- The-City Manaqer said 'that they went over information from other municipal_ities-, consider cost of livinq increases, and a comparision of various job skiils were madQ. ..iie said that they tr�+ to _make. a fair and. equitable increase for everyone.. . This. is don� in August and since.then there have been quite a few changes. Councilman Sheridan_asked if tha.budget could atand making the raises retro- active. T'he City Manaqer said that it.would be pretty clpse and he would hesitate to say the budget could absorb.that. Councilman Sheri.dan said that it seem� that the non-union employess wouid be getting a raise from July lst, but the un�on raises nre retroaotive to January lat. If funds can be found to pay-the-.union eaiplaya�sr he felt that saneho� there ahould be funds for the s�on-union employeea to teceive retroactive pay also fran the first of the year.. Councilman Liebi agreed that if retroactive for one set of people, it ahould be for ali. -He said that the cost of living increaaos are the same for all �aployees. Councilman.Breider said th�t_his-only.concern is that he did not like acroaQ the board raises. There are union people and pxoiessio�al people and the proteasionwl people should be judged on their merits. He did not like the idea of everyone ge�ting a_2� acro�s the.board raie.e. He said that he would like very much next time �alaries are increased for the City Manager to project to the Council salar�r inczeases in line with vhat job the people are doinq and done on a merit systea.. Fie said that in this case he w�ld vote for the 2$ increase but he did not want these standard rates to be creeping into the syetem of waqe increasea for prmfessional people. The City Man�ger said that for the initial raise when the budget is adopted, this is clone. CounciLaan Breider _ said -that fo� ne�ct year he would like. to see adequate reviews and not only co�pare with other_suaicipalitiee but viith private industry. The�waqss have to-be �ept_ao�npetitive. He said that he Would qo alonq with the 2$ increase now, but �,p wo�ld �,vt qo along with a percentt�qe increaae next year. He said that the Cqsuncil �}� bstter aake �ure the budqet is adsquate n�xt year before it is' adopte�i,�.:: �,�;, . SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 29, 1970 P � AGE 24 The Fire Chief said that the Fire Department is non-uni,on and at the time the budget was approved, he felt that the figures were adequate, but now they do not compare with the Police Department or other com�nunities for first class firefighter�. Most of the other communities are at about $845 for first class firefighters. He said that there was the Fire Prevention Chief, hi.mself and three firefighters. He said that he was speaking for his men in that they are getting below what otlzer communitiea have settled for. Councilman Liebl said that if this is approved the Fire Department would get an additional $1,043.92.- He added that the Couacil caanot go beyond the budget. The City Manager has spent many hours negotiating contracts. Once a budget is adopted, it has to be lived with. Councilman Sheridan said that posaibly some of.the funds will have to come from the eTaergency fund�. The Finance Director said that there was about $30,000 in the emerqency fund now. MOTION by. Councilman Liebl to authorize a 2� pay increase to all non-union employees, except the City Manager, retroactive to the first of the year.

They have qone to their bonding company now, and the bottding companp has requested sane information w}aich Comstock and Davi�, Inc., Consulting Engine�rs has aupplie�. The City Attorney said that every indication is that F�Iome.Owr�ers Insurance will take care of the project. They will call in a consulting engineer who will meet with Mr. Co�nstock, and a determina�ion would then be made on the method�o€ proceeding. The City Ahpuld give 1�oyes a rea�onable time to rectify the project and if they do not do it, then the City will have to qo to,the bonding conpany. Then a determination will have to be wade on whether D.M. Noyes Construction Company or another contractor will fini�h the jab. If there is em emergency situation that cannot wait, he suggested that same of the Public Work.s employess could be authorized t�o oorrect it. Ths Cit�l Engineer said that there is eo�e problera. There arQ-industries tha� have built in Onaway Addition in anticipation of sewer and water beinq available. The coaapletion date is July lst. Councilman Sheridan asked what percentaqe of the work is caapleted. Mr. Comstock said that there has been about $148,000 paid out of a total contract of $235,000. He said that the total contract seems to be a2iqhtly less than $235,000. Amber Oaks Addition haa not been started yet and there is a possibility that this could be neqotiated out of the contract. The FinanQe Director commented that the City does have public liability insurance.

It is their recommendation to go to the Hennepin Coun�y Blue Cross MII plan. Councilman Liebl said that MII gives good coverage, but he would be concerned about �shether Blue Cross, Blue Shield and MII are �egulated by the State Insuran�e Com�t►ission. He said that if they are reguiated by the 5tate, he would have sane faith in it. It was pointed aut that Blue 5hie�d is not part of thi.a plan. The City Attorney said that he thought that they were governed by the State Insurance Commission, but that he would aheck for sure on their stabi].ity. He pointec� out that even ii they are requlated by the State Insurance Comuiissioner, they could be unreliable, as the Insuranc� Commission is understaffed, and companies have been going bax�rupt, even thouqh they are�r_egulated. Councilman Lieb1 asked the Finance Director how much percentage would be received back. Ths Finance Director said 94� af the premi�m as a whole. This is a 4000 pe�son grc�up and each quarter a review is made and the rate� would be adjusted, He said that however, with such a large group �he premiums wouid remain fairlg stahle. Councilman Liebl said that according to the newspaper, �.lue Cross took over the deficit o� B1ue Shield.

Brunsell, Finance Director June 26, 1970 Insurance The insurance c anmittee, which represents all departments of the City has voted to recommend to the City Council the acceptance of the Hennepin County Blue Cross Hospitalization Policy and Life In�urance with North American Life. The present plan costs the City $1,731.54 per month. The rates that will be in effect on July lst under the present plan will cost the City Council $2,107.66 per month. The insurance plan recammended will cost the City Council $1,774.40 per month. We had to make one change in the life insurance plan. The range of life insurance would be from $7,000 to $10,000 rather than from $5,000 to $10,00. This is the only way it could be worked out with the insurance carrier and still get family insurance coverage. This wouid mean some persons would get $2,000 more in life insurance than they have now. In all instances, however, the life insurance would cost the City Council less than it is now costing the City.

RECLIVE BOARD OF APPEALS MINUTES: J�JNE 9, 1970 MOTION by Minish, seconded by Schmedeke, that the Planninq Commission z'eceive the minutes of the Board 'of Appeals meeting of June 9, 1970. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, the motion carried unanimously. ORDER OF AGENDA: Because Item 1 and Item 3 were requests by the same petitioner, Chairman Erickson suggested Item 3 be moved up to be considered following Item 1. ' 1. PUBLIC HEARING: SPECIAL USE PERMIT. SP �70-05, CPL. JAMES L. ROBINSON BY G. D. GIANCOLA, HIS ATTORNEY: To construct a service station on Lots 1 thru 6, Lot 9, North 68 feet of Lot 20, Central Avenue Addition. Ch airman Erickson read the Public Hearing Notice. Due to the absence of Mr. Giancola, Mr. Robert Guzy, Attorney, represented the petitioner, and Mr. Ralph Sundberg, Real Estate representative and Mr. J.L. Winters, Construction representative of Skelly Oil Co. were also in attendance. u � ' ' �' , L l� �� Planning Commission Meetin� - June 17, 1970 Pa�e 2 Mr. Guzy stated the service station would be the rustic design. There is a plan for the landscaping "in the mill" and would be ready for the Council. Basically, the building will be on the West side of the property with two en- trances off Old Central and one off 73rd Avenue. �ao pump islands are planned East of the building with a future island North of the building. The station would be three bay with parking along the South and West. The buffer areas are open to recommendation of the City. The Ground Plan, Sheet No. A, dated March 3, 1970, was shown to the Commis- sion. The station would not be a 24 hour station, nor would it be in the towing business. Therefore there would not be cars parked outside for long periods of time. Regarding signs, Darrel Clark said the sign ordinance is pretty restrictive, and is much easier to enforce on new stations. Mr. Schmedeke asked if Skelly Oil would consider putting evergreens along the blacktop area West of the building. Mr. Sundberg said they would mention it to the people planning the landscaping. ' Referring to the intersection at 73rd and Central Avenues, the Assistant said recently it was widened at the intersection and the 100 feet of right of way on Central Avenue so that there is plenty � work with. The Skelly people are working with the City Engineer on Avenue right of way. ' , , ' u ' u ' t Engineering City has of room to the 73rd MOTION by Fitzpatrick, seconded by Minish, that the Planning Commission close the Public Hearing for the Special Use Permit, SP #70-05, Cp1. James L. Robinson by G. D. Giancola to construct a service station on Lots 1 through 6, Lot 9, North 68 feet of Lot 20, CentraZ Avenue Addition. Upon a voice vote, a1Z voting aye, the motion carried unanimously. When Lot 20, Central Avenue Addition, was split, it was stipulated that the remaining part of Lot 20 would stay with Lots 7 and 8, and also the peti- tioner was t�sked to get a petition for the vacation of Brook Street. Referring to the George Walquist petition for a similar split, Council asked the petitioner to plat the remaining piece. In the case of Central Avenue Addition, the property is torrens. The purpose of the vacation of Brook Street was to give approxi- mately 90 foot frontage on Central Avenue. The present owners are considering this as one unit as far as sale or development, but the Commission was con- cerned with the problem if it could not be sold in one piece. The two lots (7 and 8) and the 30 foot vacation, makes an area of 16,500 square feet which is still a pretty small piece for an M-1 (light industrial). The North lots, facing 73rd Avenue, are zoned C-1 and the remaining South lots are M-1 (light industrial). A suggestion was made to tie the remaining property together, but because of the two types of.zoning, it was felt the land could not remain as one lot. Mr. Guzy asked how long it would take for a Registered Land Survey and was told about 90 days. The Skelly people said they could not wait that long, as they planned to start building this summer. Mr. Guzy did not believe it would be possible for the owner of the land to sell the lots 7 and 8 and leave the South Half of Lot 20 and the proposed vacated 30 feet to go back to tax�s as this is valuable industrial land. � lJ �. � Planning Commi.ssion Meetin� - June 17, 1970 pa,ge 3 The Co�nission felt that the status of Lot 20 should be taken care of with the petition for the vacation of Brook Street as it was more or less related to it. ' MOTION by Minish, seconded by Fitzpatrick, that the Planning Commission recommend to Council granting of the Special Use Permit, SP #70-05, by Cp1. James L. Robinson by G. D. Giancola, his attorney, to construct a service station on Lots 1 through 6, Lot 9, and the North 68 feet of Lot 20, Central ' Avenve Addition. Upon a voice vote, Harris abstaininq because Mr. Guzy is his attorney,.Erickson abstaining because of conflict of interest, Schmedeke, Minish and Fitzpatricx voting aye, the motion carried. � , LJ ' ' ' 2. VACATION REQUEST: SAV 4�70-04, CPL. JAMES L. ROBINSON BY G. D. GIANCOLA, HIS ATTORNEY: Vacation of Brook Street -- immediately South and abutting Central Avenue Addition. Chairman Erickson commented that apparently this is a logical vacation, but there is a question of Lot 20 being landlocked at this point, and he felt it should be tied together with Lots 7 and 8 with a Registered Land Survey as a condition of the vacation. MOTION by Fitzpatrick, seconded by Minish, that the Planning Commission recommend to CounciZ approvaZ of the vacation request, SAV #70-04, Cpl. James L. Robinson by G. D. Giancola, his Attorney, of Brook Street, and that it be granted wi th the stipuZation that Lots 7 and 8 and the South Ha1f of Lot 20, Central Avenue Addition, be platted as a Registered Land Survey with the area requirement of the o.Zd zoninq code to be applied. Upon a voice vote, aIZ vo ting aye, the motion carried unanimously. 3. CONTINUED: REQUEST FOR SPECIAL USE PERMIT, SP ��70-03, EDWARD CHIES: ' To construct housing for the elderly and senior citizens on Lots 6 thru 12, 15 thru 20, Meadowmoor Terrace. Public Hearing closed. � Mr. Art Winters and Mr. Marlo June were present. Mr. Winters reported on the information he had received from HUD; Mainten- ' ance of grounds -- none; construction -- Fridley Code requirements; occupancy -- this was from the document published by HUD, G4700.1 FHA and under No. 236 Section, Housing for Lower Income Families. il j' � �� ' , ' Chairman Erickson reported on the information he and Darrel Clark obtained. Their source of information said that there was no control over how they are re�ted. They can rent to the elderly and others if they wish. They do have maintenance checks once a year, but they did not state how thorough the check would be. His opinion was that this is really a request for a rezoning to R-3 (general multiple family) and perhaps should be treated as such. If it were a request for elderly housing, and there were some controls over it, he would have no objections, except for the lines and layout of the buildings. He added that if the complex can be rented to anybody, which, in fact, it can be, then the request should be treated as a rezoning, and he would object to i�s being handled in this manner. , i� � �_1 Plannin� Commission Meetin� - June 17i 1970 Page 4 � Chairman Erickson explained that HUD No. 236 is a special section of FHA wherein the government will subsidize certain things by direct payment. The Federal government requires that a person living in a financed building by HUD ' pay 25% of his income, and would subsidize a$100.00 a month rental unit for anybody with a low income. The government encourages the mixture of old people with younger people. They can�t rent to people with higher incomes. ' If, in the future, the apartments were not rented to law income people, this would be an apartment complex. Mr. Winters said that was not the intent of the petitioner. , � C. _J Mr. Marlo June said he had some thoughts on this problem. The suburbs are getting a lot of pressure from the State and Federal government to build housing for the lo�a income and elderly groups. The State Government has the right to take away our zoning ability or prerogative and tell us what to do and they could take it away any time. Al1 the communities are going to have to start looking into it. He hoped this would be along the line to help the community without going to the State. Mr. Winters read excerpts from FH 4700.1 Digest of Insurable Loans and ' Summaries of other Federal Housing Administration Program, March 1970 -- a Hud Guide. He said if the City of Fridley accepts the request, under the HUD program, the City would have to pass a resolution "Under the Workable Program". ' About two or three months ago, the City of Hopkins passed such a resolution and he would try to get a copy of it. Mr. Schmedeke wondered if the complex could get 40 families to come out ' here and if the people would be interested in concrete floors and electricity heating. Mr. June volunteered that the floors are carpeted. Chairman Erickson said the Planning Commission is being asked to create a density equal to R-3 , density and intended for the elderly but not necessarily knowing it will be rented to the elderly. Mr. June said the government stipulated that no one can live there with more than one child. ' II � �n �' ' � � The Commission wished more time to study the possibility of making stipula- tions to restrict the houses to the elderly only; how difficult it would be to enforce the stipulation; and whether or not the City would have to draw up an ordinance. MOTION by Narris, seconded by Schmedeke, that the Planning Commission con- tinue to July 8, 1970 the request for a Special Use Permit, SP �f70-03, by Edward Chies to construct housing for the elderly and senior citizens on Lots 6 thru 12, 15 thru 20, Meadowmoor Terrace. Upon a voice vote, a11 voting �ye, the motion carried unanimously. 4. LOT SPLIT REQUEST: L.S. 1170-08, FREDERICK A. SKOG: North 10 feet of Lot 17 to be added to Lot 18, Block 2, Parkview Oaks lst Addition. Mr. Skog was present. Mr. Schmedeke, Chairman of Plats & Subdivisions-Streets & Utilities Sub- committee, which met at 7:00 P.M. previous to the Planning Commission meeting, stated the Subcom�i.ttee approved the lot split request. i� I �4_. ' , � � ' 1 ' ' ' � ' ' 1 i l�iS Plannin�Commission Meetint� - June 17, 1970 Paf�e 5 Mr. Skog explained that he has the opportunity to obtain 10 feet from the North edge of Lot 17 which would give him 10 more feet alongside his garage. The basketball area could then be in the back instead of the front yard. It would not be long before the children would be owning their own cars and this will create a parking place alongside the garage for the extra cars, if he needs it. The bank will be cut back. If his neighbor were to fill this, it would cost him a lot money, and it is quite a distance from his house. His garage was built too close to the line to begin with. The Engineering Assi�stant said that 6 feet of the 10 feet is an utility easement and Mr. Skog does not intend to build a structure on it. MOTION by Harris, seconded by Minish, that the Planning Commission recom- mend approval of the 1ot split request, L.S. #70-08, Frederick A. Skog, to split the North 10 feet from Lot 17 and add to Lot 18, Block 2, Parkview Oaks lst Addition. Upon a voice vote, a1Z votinq aye, the motion carried unanimously. 5. LOT SPLIT REQUEST: L.S. 4�70-09, WENDELL ELLIOTT: South 20 feet of Lot 1, Block 1, Sandhurst Addition deeded to Lot 2. Mrs. Wendell Elliott was present. Mr. Schmedeke explained the Subcommittee heard this request tonight also. The land involved had been deeded several years ago, but Mr. Elliott continued to pay the special assessments. However, now a road is being built, and unless the lot split was done legally at the City level, he would be paying the assessments for tY►e new road. The Engineering Assistant said that this 20 feet, which was deeded, actually is at grade with the neighbor and below the grade of the Elliott��awn and it does look logical. Both houses have about the same distance to the new lot line. MOTION by Schmedeke, seconded by Fitzpatrick, that the Planning Commission recorrnnend approval to the Council of the Lot Split, L.S. #70-09, Wendell EZliott, splitting the South 20 feet of Lot 1, Block 1, Sandhurst Addition and deeding it to Lot 2, Block 1, 5andhurst Addition. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, the motion carried unanimously. 6. STREET SIGNS IN COLUMBIA HEIGHTS: On 40th Avenue between Central Avenue and University Avenue. � Mr. Schmedeke again spoke about the difficulty of seeing the street signs in Fridley at night. The street signs he referred to in Columbia Heights are quite large, and he thought a sign of this type should be placed on the main arterial streets, such as Mississippi Street, 7th Street, T.H. 4�4�, etc. If ' there were new men on an ambulance or fire truck, it would be easier for them to see the signs at night. He did not believe in taking down every sign, but to gradually replace them. He said the signs in Fridley look good and are ' easy to read during the day. The Engineering Department was to contact D. W. Harstad Co. to inquire about costs. n �I Continued. No action.

Cathie Stordahl, Secretary to Commission. This Special meeting of the Parks and Recreation Commission was called so the Commission could discuss their findings at the "Tour of.the Parks" on Saturday, June 6, and how they can relate these findings to the 1971 Budget. In preparation for a second Special Meeting with the City Council on Wednesday, June 10, in which the Commission would discuss the needs of the Department, the Commission prepared a list of areas which needed the most attention and a possible solution for a means of obtaining the finances. ' As each Park or Park Land was named, the Commission and Mr. Brown indicated whether or not the need was an immediate need. The Riverview Heights area has many possibilities; Chases Island would be a matter of cleaning up and , could be developed into a very nice park; Meadowlands is in need of a major storm sewer project before any further development can be started. It's not a problem of acquisition, but rather an improvement problem. The possibilities of acquiring some land directly adjacent to the Meado�rlands ' Property, was also discussed; The Commons is in need of an irrigation system; Hyde Park and Summit Square have similar problems; West Moore Lake has a need for a sidewalk, lighting, and planting; The City of Fridley Engineering ' Department is developing the road into Locke Park and the parking lot is in the Parks and Recreation 1970 Budget. ' Areas for improvement were suggested, such as replacing one warming house a year, a Recreation Center at The Commons, a 60' X 60' Park Garage with indoor plumbing, and the possibilities of a Municipal pool. The areas requiring large sums of money for development are the Ruth Circle Area, Hyde Park, North � Park, West Moore Lake Park, Meadowlands, Riverview Heights, Chases Island, The Commons, Summit Square, and an unnamed area in East Fridley (G6 on the map) which is about six acres in size. i � i � � 'i J ' IJ Possible solutions for funds are a Bond Issue and money from the sale of the Shorewood Lounge. Federal Grants were mentioned, but the government is the most interested in developing parks to remain in their natural state. Mr. Olson asked to go on record as commending the Parks and Recreation Director, Paul Brown, and the Parks Foreman, Ralph Volkman, for the great job they�re doing in the Parks and with the Recreation programs. The entire Commission agreed that they were most fortunate to have these two men working for the Department. ADJOURNMENT.

The Veteran's Administration is now offering this type of apprenticeship program for those qualified veterans who wish to further their education. Tt.is on-the-job training program is first set up by the City, secondly, it must be approved by the State as an educational program, and finally, the individual veteran must qualify for the position. The program is set up on a maximum two year basis and Curt, having been with the City of Fridley since 1959, is a most qualified recipient. Curt has prepared maps and specifications for park projects for the past several years. He will receive on-the-job training as a park planner and will serve as an advisor to the Parks and Recreation Commission and the Parks and Recreation Department. SYLVAN HILLS PARK. Debbie Thomas was present to discuss the problems at Sylvan Hills Park. She had written a letter to the Commission in May and as a result, she was invited to attend the June meeting to discuss the problems and possibly find some solutions. Debbie was one of 23 Fridley school students who wrote letters to the Commission regarding the parks in Fridley. Each of these students was invited to attend this meeting and only Debbie came. Debbie asked if Sylvan Hills Park could be regarded to help with the drainage problem. Mr. Volkman, Park Foreman, told Debbie that it was the plan of the Parks and Recreation Department to regrade the park in late summer, just before cold weather. If the regrading was done any earlier, it would interfere with the p].ayground program. Both Debbie and her father, Mr. Thomas, felt that the problem was being handled satisfactorily.
