Mr. A.L. Williams, 947 86th Avenue N.E., Building Plans:
Mr. Williams had been requested by the City Council at the Council Meeting of
Apri1 19, 1971 to bring his building g��ns back tor Council review when they
REGULAR CQUNCTL MEETING OF MAY 3, 1971
PAGE 2 �
were zeddy. Councilman Harris asked about the Ordinance requirements for
a garaqe. The City Engineer said that on substandard lots there is not a
requirement to build a garage, the only requirement is £or a hard suxface
driveway. H� pointed out that if this is granted, it will be the first
persait without a garage this year. The Coux�cil studied the side yard
varianCes, and agreed it would be a difficult lot to put a garage on.
Councilman K�;lshaw mentioned the possibility of a carport, but Mr. Williams
was not �.n favor of this. Councilman Harris asked haw many similar lots
were left i.n the area and the City Engineer answered there were about a
hali dozen �n this area.
MOTION by Councilman Breider to approve the building plans and issue the
buildinq permi�. Seconded by Councilman Liebl. Upon a voice vote, all
votinq aye, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried unanimously.
Robert Schroer, East Ranch Estates, Permit for Swimmin Pool SaleS :
Mr• Rc�bert Schroer introduced Mr. Andie Haugen who is interested in leasing
space from Mx�. Schroer for displaying his swimming pools. Sales would be
conducted from a moveable building which would also be saleable as a
dressing room or cabana type building. Mr. Schroer said they were nqt
clear whether they would need a permit to sell swimming pools and also
whether a permit was needed for the building.
Mr. Schroer explained just where.the pool sales w�ould be located and said that
the area would be lanclscaped. The Council studied the plan that was
presented. Cauncilman Harris said that this would require a special use
permit and he read the part of the Ordinance covering sale of inerchandise
in the open rather than in a salesroom. The City Engineer explained that
there is not a yearly license required, but will be a special use permit
covering a certain time livait.
The Council said that this would need a hearing before the Planning Com-
mission, and the Commission would ordinarily set up a public hearing
before the surroundinq property owners, but a� there are only a couple
of surrounding property owners, perhaps if they were willing to waive the
public hearing, it could qo to the Planning C�nission for their recqn-
mendation at their meeting of May 6th, and come back to the Council at
their meeting of May 10, 1971.
There was a discussion regarding the building that will be used. The City
Attorney said that he would really think this would be called merchandise
rather than a building as it is saleable, and will not be there permanently.
Councilman Liebl pointed out that each year Holiday puts up a temporary
building outdoors which doea not require a permit. Councilman Harris asked
if the building would be removed after the season is over. Mr. Schroer
said that aqr�e�nent with the swimming pool company was for one year, with
a one year option. Councilman Harris felt that the Planning Commission
could set some mutually agreeable stipulations on how long the building
could be on the premises. The City Engineer said that he would work with
Mr. Schrcex tp see if the waivers could be received fran the other prq-
perty owners. .

Mr. Schxoer informed the Council he has been approached by a company from
Roseville to se11 arid rent caa�pers. Councilman Harris asked Mr. Schroer
if all items under his oriqinal permit have been completed, as normally the
Council would not issue any further permits until all things have been
taken caxe of. Mr. Schrcer said that 10 or 15 more parking spaces are the
only thinqs not in. Councilman Harris suqgested he check with the City
Engineer on this.
The Council di,scussed tabling Item 16 on the Agenda, "Consideration of
Reques� by Shelter Homes C�rp. to Locate Model Ho�e S�le� Genter on Target
Property" to the next ���t�ng also to give the Planning G�ission a ctaa�ac�
to look at the reque��.

haae sales center on Tarqet property to the Council Meeting of May 10,

MR. DON NEUMFIN, 615 IRONTON STREET N.E., AND MR. STEVE GRAVES, 620 IRI�NTON
STREET N.E., COMPLAING ON D('lGS RUNNING LOOSE:
Mr. Neuman, 615 Ironton Street N.E., said that they have a probletn in their
neighborhood with dogs running loose and they do not feel they are getting
any satisfaction from th� Dog Patrol or the Police Department. He said that
most of the dogs are larqe and they are worried about the children, so
soanething must be done about it. ii� said that their area has a larqe open
field and the river which seems to attract the dogs.
Councilman Harris said that the Council has just had a meeting with the B& E
Patrol President and they are talking about more than doublinq the amount of
service.
Mr. Robert Schroer said that he lived south of Mr. Neuman and he agreed there
Yfeve been a lot of dog packs around. Just last week a child had been bitten
by a dog. He said the Police Department had canvassed t.`�e whole area door
to door and had done a fine job in findinq the dog.
, Mr. Steve Gxaves, 52� Ironton Street N.E., asked if the awners were not
required to keep their dogs leashed. Counciliaan Harris said that the Ordi-
nance xequires dogs to be licensed and leashed or under voice c�aand at
all times. He said that B& E Patrol is picking up about 50 dogs each
� month. Mr. Graves said that B& E has told him he could go alonq with them
any day he wanted to, but that was hard when you are workinq.
�
REGULAR COtJDiCI� MEETING OF MAY 3, 1971

Mx. Graves said they had another prablem in the neighborhood and this was a
lot o�` cars driving fast in the area, some without mufflers. Mayox Kirkham
said he felt that this was a problem all over and not just in this area.
He sald that all the patrolling is being done that is possible, but you
have to admit, that the Police cannot always be there on the spot. Mr.
Graves+ also saia that there is a problem with children leaving books and
things on the zoads foraing drivers into the other lane, also children are
sitting riqht in the street. Councilman Harris sa�d that this was a
parental responsibility, and he thouqht the parents of these children would
like to knpw this is goinq on.
Mr. R.�chard Harris said that Dr. Dudley of the Veterinarian Clinic had a
good idea. He had suggested that every dog licensed in Fridley be tattooed.
The number coul,d not be removed and could correspond with the registration
number fox easy identification of the owner. He said that out of 450 doqs
picked up in Fridley the previous year only about 30 doqs were reclaimed.
He felt our present ordinance cannot be enforced, and the Council should
take another look at it.
Mr. Caxl Paulson said he understood there was a new ordinanc.e and he asked if
there is not a provision for the City to hire an individual to do some work
on the situation. He said no�r that the coet of a license was $5 there should
be some money to hire this person. Mayor Kirkham said that the Council was
doing some work on revisinq the situation. They are reviewing the contract
with the Dog Patrol Service to get better results. Mr. Paulson suggested
maybe a letter could be sent to the people informing them of the requirements.
Mayor ICirkham said that this had been part of the discussion with the Dog
Patrol President. •
MRS. MECH, 1315 66TH AVENUE N.E., PARK RESERVE BO�iRD BII.L:
Mrs. Mech said she would like to discuss the Park Reserve Board Bill. The
Oouncil has previously passed a resolution regarding this bill, and re-
affirmation of their previous action is on the Agenda as Item No. 26. Mrs.
Mech said she believed they had received a letter on this subject frora Mr.
A1 Kordiak, County Comnaiasioner. Mrs. Mech reminded the Council that she
and Mr. Jeroane Hegstrom, Metropolitan Council, had appeared before them
several montha ago, and at that time they had pramnised to go alonq with the
Rice Creek Nature Trail. She told of the labbying she has been doing
beiore the Leqislature on the bill. Councilman Liebl asked how much money
it will cost and how much would the City get in return. Mrs. Mecla said that
we have been promised the Natuxe Center which is going to cost $200,000.
Councilman Breider asked if this bill gave the Board the power of eminent
danain. Mrs. Mech aaid yes, except for homesteads. Councilman Breider said
that this was his objection to the bill. He thouqht th� Nature Trail was a
good idea, but he did not want saneone else cominq in with emi.nent danain.
Mrs. Mech said that the Board will not come in where they are not wanted.
Councilman Liebl asked if the money will be rai�ed frcro sales tax or pro-
perty taxes. Mrs. Mech said that 2 mills can be levied, bu t the property
tax would be a backup for the excise tax.
Mayor Kirkham said his abjection to the bill was that it provides for an
already appointed body �to be the Park Bosrd and it given them power of
entinent dar►ain, and taxing power. This would be re�nov�.nq the power too far

in the o�dinance by the City Council. Mr. Dick Harris said that while he was
on the Planning Commission he had missed one of the meetings at which this
had been discussed, but frosa what he remembered some of the provisions in
the building ordinance are good, but s�ne are very unnecessary, such as
having a�tair hatch to the roof in a very small buildinq. Councilman Liebl
eaid that bas�.cally it will be adopting the 1970 Building Code. He thought
it would m�alce our requirements a little tougher and upgrade our coaimercial
and industrial buildings. Mayor Kirkham said the Council would be interested
in any constructive criticism Mr. Harris may have to offer, and the Ordinarice
can be amended �t any tis�e there are improvements to be made in it. He
suggested Dick get a copy of it and look it over.

made to the Code if justifications are shown, to adopt Ordinance N479 upon

ment will be reached. This will have to be completely resolved before
energizing the line. Mr. Johnson wae thanked by the Council for his report.

The size of the addition has been cut fram the original request. The Acting
City Manager showed the Council the three plans and explained what would be
included.
Counci Laan Liebl asked if it would be the same type of construction as
previously, and what the cost would be. Mr. Patch said that it would match
the construction of the existing building and that the preliminary cost
estimate was $16 per square foot. Councilman Liebl asked if the buildinq
would be cotnplete at $16 per foot. Mr. Patch said yes.
Mr. Dick Harr�s asked if thie price w�ould include land�capinq, blacktopp�nq
and all the other requiraments the Council asks of other builders, or would
they be running hose from fire hydrants as they df.d before. He said that the
City paid $14 a square foot for the original buildinq and had not qotten
all the floor poured. Mr. Harris felt that tha new addition ahould be
cheaper than 516. The Council reminded him that these were just preliminary
cost estiiaates, and that the City does everything by bids, and it will be

said they need the lot split to get financinq, and if their financing
ialls through, they may have to ask for different zoning, as they are
having trouble finding financing for this area.
MOTION by Councilman Kelshaw to grant the Lot Split #77.-05 fos a building
site for a 42 unit apartment, subject to the issuance of a building permit.
Seconded by Councilman Liebl. Upon a voice vote, all votinq aye, Mayor

2. L,OT SPLIT REQUEST, L.S. #71-06, STANLEY DAHLMEZER BY ROBERT BIGELOW:
Lot 7, Auditor's Subdivision #108, split in half for two building
sites.
The City Engineer pointed out the lot to be split on the map on the pro-
jection screen. He said that there were no problems but they want the
petitioners to be aware that the lot, after it is built, might have water
standing on the south of the property. Mr. Bigelow was present and said
that they realized this. Councilman Kelshaw asked about the signature of
Nir. Dahlmeier on the lot split application as mentioned in the Planning
Ca�mtaission Minutes. Mr. Bigelow said that he had the requested siqnature
and gave it to the City Engineer.

3. CONSTDERATION OF AN ORDINANCE AMENDING AND RECODIFYING SECTION 45.053
RELATING TO SIDEYARD REQUIREMENTS IN THE R-1 DISTRICT:
The purpose o�' t,his ordinance was to set $xdeyard requirements in an R-1
distxict t.o allow for fut�ire double garages� Tha City Engineei handed out
copies of the sketches studied by the Planning Commission. He read Section
1 of the ordinance which was the only change made in the ordinance. The
Council discuased what the minimum side yard requirements should be, and
how the section should be worded so that a double car attached qaxage could
be built without a side �►ard vaxiance. The City Engineer said that it would
work if a minimum of 11 feet is set on the garage side yard and 10 feet on
the house sideyard of a 7� fopt frontage lot with a 40 foot wide house. If
the house is narrower, the qarage side yard require�aents would be increased
accordinqly up to 15 feet. The Council aqreed with this.
MOTION by Councilman Kelahaw to request the Administration to prepare the
ordinance with sideyard mini.mums as discussed by the Council this evening
and bri.ng it back to the Council for first reading. Seconded by Councilman
Liebl. Upon�-a voice vote, all votinq aye, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion
carri.ed unanimously.
(Items 1�4 and #5 of the Planning Commission Minutes are still being
considered by the Planning Co�aission.)
6. REVIEW P�ND REEVAL[JATION QF EXISTING PIJINNING NORTH OF OSBORDTE RUAD AND
WEST OF UNIVERSITY.AVENUB TO CITY LIMITS:
The City Engineer reviewed the six motions passed by the Planninq Commission
concerning theiz recomsaendations on planning in the area north of Osborne
Road and west o! University Avenue to the City limits.
� Counci]man Breider asked if the City still had plans for a signal liqht
at Riverw�od School on East River Rnad. The City Engineer said that the
County has ordered this signal. The City Engineer said that the City has
had plans for this area since 1961, but because of the new developments in
� the area, the information and data was given to the Planning Commission to
look at aqain.
�
�
�
Councilmar� Breider asked if there was same way to direct the traffic to�ward
Univexsity at the 79th Avenue crossing when it is opened. He wondered if
a crossing at 79th Avenue would decrease or increase the traffic on East
River Road. Th� City Engineer said that t�affic is going to increase on
all roads through norm�al p�ogress. He felt that the traffic will travel the
better iacility in this area, which is University event�e. East River Road will
not be as convenient because of the signals. If all the proposed signals are
added there will be 8 signals on East River Road from I 694 to the north
border of �Y►e City.
' Coun�ilman Haxris wondered if there was roaa for saae kind of construation
in the area o� 83rd to direct traffic to University instead of co�inq
straight ahead. The City Enqineer said that Burlington Northern has an
� industrial plat before the Coon Rapids Council, and we have presented them
with the plan�. We have sugqested their right of way be connected to our
�
REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF MAY 3, 1971
PAGE 10 �
83rd. Councilman Harr�s said he was talking about the intersections where
the County ha$ control. �erhaps this could be done by off-setting the
intersectiqn at 83rd or 85th. The City Engineer said they have made
suggestion� �Qr the 83xd intersection. They have drawn up a plan an$ sub-
mitted �t to Coon Rapids.
M(�YOI1 by Counc�.lman K,elshaw to concur aaith the six motions as pa5sed by
the Flanning Comnnission. Seconc�ed by Councilman Lieb1 for discussion.
Councilman Lieb� said that he felt it was i.mperative to try to do what the
Planning Co�amn,ission's sixth motion concerning having as many utilities
brought out adjacent to University Avenue as pos�ible. He said he would
really like to see as many utilities adjacent to University as possible so
that the more valuable property will bear the assessment.
Aick Harris asked about the recammendation to do with a temporary ally
between Elm and Beech Street. CounciLnan Liebl read Motion 4 to hini
recommending that 78th Avenue fro�s Beech Street to Main Street not be
vacated and reaawmendinq a temporary surface from Beech to Elm Stree�.
Mr• Harxis �aid that originally he had been opposed to it, but_now he is not
objectinq as hard as before, although he felt the City would be putting sane
pretty tough assessments on the property south of 78th Street and it is not
usable for anything. He thought if a reque�st is made for a small building
between the czeek and 78th, the City maybe could waive some of the require-
ments for parkinq or so�nething to make it easier on them. Councilman
Harris said that whatever develops in that area does not preclude the City
from doing sanething. He said it is certainly within the realm of
possibility there could be a closed culvert.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, Councilman Breider votinq nay, the motion carried.
Councilman Breider said that he would like to vote nay on the first motion,
but would concur with the rest of the motions. (See motion far reconsideration).
MOTION by Counciiman Kelahaw to reconsider the previous motion concerning
the �ix motion$ passed by the Planning Commission. Seconded by Counci Lnan
Harris. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion
carriad una�nimously.
" MOTION by Councilman Kelshaw to concur with Motion No. 1 by the Planning
C�aission recamaending that additional railroad crossings should go in at
� 79th and 83rd Avenues, and reconaider eliminating the crossing at 77th
� Avenue at the time when 79th Avenue crossing is opened. The crossing on
the John Hayes property and Ironton Street should be eliminated, and to
` align the propos�d signals on East River Road with 79th Avenue and 83rd
Avenue. Seconded by Councilman Harris. Upon a voice vote, Breider and
' Liebl voting nay, the motian carried.
� MOTION by Coun�ilman Kelshaw to concur with the reanaining five motions as
;pasaed by the Planning Co�amission in their minutes of April 21, 1971
regardinq xecommendations fo� planning north of Osborne Road and west of
University Avenue to the City limits. Seconded by Councilman Harri�. Upon
a voice vote, �here beinq r�o nays, Mayor Kirkham declared the iaotion �

THE REQUIREMENT FOR A BUILDING TO BE SET BACK FROM A STREET LINE FROM
100 FEET TO 86 FEET AND SECTION 45.135, 1, F2, TO REDUCE THE RE UIRE�

ROAD N.E., FRILDEY, MINNESOTA. (RE UEST BY MR. EUGENE BONNETT, 792
MISSISSIPPI STREET N.E., FRIDLEY, MINNESOTA):
The City Engineer explained that this request was to reduce the setback
frocn 100 feet to 86 feet and also requesting a variance on a driveway
location. The Board of Appeals recommended approval of the setback
variance with a stipulation that no driveway be allowed onto Osborne
Road and recommended denial of a variance for a driveway on Osborne
Road.
Councilman Harris asked if there will be all blacktop parking. The City
Engineer said yes. He said that Mr. Bonnett is doubling the size of his
building. He said he believed Mr. Bonnett was interested in getting an
address on Osborne Road, but he thought this could still be done with ingress
and egress on Baker Street. The Council discussed requiring all cars that
he is working on be parked south of the existing area rather than in the
�;parking lot. The City Engineer said this would be coming back to the Council
' when they request a building permit.
,MOTION by Councilman Breider to grant ..= setback variance from 100 feet to 86
;feet with the stipulation no driveway be allowed onto Osborne Road, and to
deny the requested varian�e to reduce the distance of a curb openinq from
'an intersection as no driveway is to be in front of the building. Seconded
;by Councilman Liebl. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Kirkham
declared the motion carried unanimously.

CODTSTDERATION OF PURCHASE QF PROPERTY AT 5981 3RD STREET: (LAPIDES ESTATE)
The City Attorney said that technically these lots were still R-2, because
when the Council rezoned thie area, these lots were oa►itted, hawever, if
thi� went to court they w�ould argue that the reat of the area was re�oned
and the City did it eo as not to have to pay the co�ercial price.
Counci3.uian Harrie asked what the oriqinal price had been. The City �ttorney
said 'he balieved he had asked �or $17,000. Councilman Liebl thought that
$15,000 was a fair price considering what other lots have sold for in this
aren. The City Attorney said he thouqht if they condemned the land, they
REGUI.AR COUNCZL MEETING OF MAY 3, 1971

possibly could get it Eor less; however, when you add the costs for the
condemnation, he was not sure they would save that much, as he has not
done a study of the property values in the area. Councilman Harris felt
that the Council would be open to critieism if ttiey paid more than the
yoing market rate for the property. The City Attorney said that the City
vrould get right of entry once the papers were filed so condemnation would
not hold anything up. Mr. Eldon Schmedeke said he thought the house will
be in the way and something should be done as soon as possible.
MOTION by Councilman Harris to enter into condemnation proceedi.ngs to
acquire the property of 5981 3rd Street N.E., Seconded by Councilman Liebl.
Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Kirl�ham declared the motion
carried unanimpusly.
REPORT ON STATUS OF CI3'Y'S REQUEST FOR ACCESS PERMIT, T.H. �47 SLIP OFF
AT 60TH AVENUE: "
The City Engineer said that the City had received a copy of an interoffice
memo in regard to the City's application to the State Highway Department
last year for a slip off at 60th Avenue. We still have not receive per-
mission, but this is to qet permission going. The City Engineer said that if
Mr. Schmedeke could give the City a letter about his plans and what he has on
his property, and if he talked to the other businesses in the area to get
lettera in to be sent on to tdze State, we may be able to convince them that
there are enough cott�aitments to open up the slip off. He explained that it
was not the local office but the Federal Bureau of Public Roads that has
control on it. Mr. Schmedeke brought forth a letter he had written to the
City Council that could be forwarded on to the Minnesota Highway Department.
MOTION by Cpuncilman Liebl to receive the conmunication froaa Mr. Eldon
Schmedeke dated May 3, 1971. Seconded by Councilman Kelshaw. Upon a voice

Highway Department dated April 21, 1971 regardinq the slip off at 60th

Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Schmedeke suggested that the City Attorney write to the peopie in the
area ta get them to write letters to the Highway Department to help push
for this access. The City Engineer felt that too much pressure might hurt
the Gity's cause at this time, but this can be done later if the slip off
is not proceeding at all. The City Attorney said he would write to the
business people in the area asking them to write letters to the City, to
be forwarded to the Highway Department.

any permanent improvement of the storm sewer and roadways in this area.
Seconded by Councilman Harris. .
There was a discussion on the advisability of wideninq tt�e railroad crossing
at 77th Avenue because of the possibility of it being closed in the future.
It cannot be left as it is at present because previously only the north side
had been dedicated, but naw the south side is being acquired also, so the
road will be put in the middle of the right of way. 77th Avenue cannot be
cicsed at this ti.me because there is no street at 79th Avenue so that
crossing cannot be opened to replace 77th Avenue. The City Engineer said
that a street c�ld be put in at 79th Avenue this year if the Council wished
as the utilities are in all the way.
THE VOTE, upon the motion was a voice vote, Counci Lnan Kelshaw voting nay,
Mayor Kirkham declared the wqti.o� carried.

but local items would be settled locally. This would give a united
bargaining front.

Councilman Breider said that his concern was whether this was the exact
� procedure hs wanted to follow. He said they were trying to impress upon
the legislatora that Fr�dley is having problems with some of the things
they are �acing in the legislature. He said that this is one tax bi11� but
there ax'e alreaciy so many tax bills before the legi.slature right naw, that
� perhaps the Council should not go in favor af one tax bill, but just point
out that they are concerned about the taxes and other sources af revenue.
The Acting City Manager said that if there is a taa� f�eeze, we wri11 have
� to have samething else. Councilman Harris felt the Council should stand
up for one that is good for Fridley, and he €elt this one looked like the
best one. Councilman Breider said that the school taxes are 70$ of the
� total, and he thought it would be presumptious on his part if he only
wanted to deal with the 10$ rather than the larger portion. Councilman
Harris said that the school people are working on proposals that will help
the school tax burden, and he did not think the Council should assume what
� the school might think is best for them. He felt the Council had to look
at what is best for us.
�
'
'
THE VOTE upon the motion was a voice vote, Liebl and Breider voting nay,
the motion carried.
There was a discussion on whether business and industry would pay as much
of the tax burden as they are presently. The Acting City Manaqer said that
the proposed tax bill would allaw a lower tax levy. The City would
receive a].most as many dollars as with the property tax. Councilman Harris
said that the City mill rate would still apply to all property.

REGULAR COUNCTL MEETING OF MAY 3, 1971
B. CTTX MANAG�R: PQLICE PENSION FUND:
PAGE 33
MOTION by Councilman Liebl to receive the communicatioa� from the Acting City
Managex dated April 23, �971.
The Acting City Manager ���.si �ka�� �� �°e���aa ka� pu� �ai� b�ck on the Agenda
is because this would be the last chance if the Council did want to do
something about changing the Police Pension Fund, anci it may be t� Z���
already. He said tkie Police Pension Association dces not plan to do any-
thing until they receive their actuary fraa Hewitt and Associates, and that
will no� be until the Legislature is over, he is sure. Mr. Brunsell said
that the Council will have a'tax increase or a mill rate increase this next
year if they ar� going to meet the Guidelines Act. If there is a tax
freeze the City would really be in a bind. This could mean a quarter
million dollaxs out of some other operation of the City's budget eventually.
Councilman Harris said that if they did not spend any of the fund, they would
not have to meet the Guidelines Act. The City Attorney said he felt that
this was the action that had to be taken. The Acting City Manaqer said that
the money budgeted in 1972 would have to be under the Guidelines Act,
Councilman Liebl asked if this would mean that under the Guidelines Act,
the County Auditor could fo�cce the Council to levy that amount. The
Attorney said that this was corxect. Councilman Liebl said he thought it
had been worked out at 21� for the City and 7$ for the Officers. Mayor
Kirkham said that several of the men have said they thought they could go
along with this as a teanporary tYiing until the 1973 session of the
Legislature. Councilman Harris asked how difficult it would be to prepare
a bill for this session. The Attorney said that it was too late naw. If
the Association did not change their By-Laws, the City could start action
in District Court to intexpret the City's responsibilities. Councilman
Breider said he felt 21$ was more than generous.
Mayor Kirkham said that the City has made their offer, the only thing to
do now is wait for the Police Pension Fund Association to reply.
THE MOTION was seconded and upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor
Kirkham declared the motion carried unaniunously.

CounciLaan Li.ebl asked if there was a State license required. Mr. Haugen
said no. Gouncilman Breider asked if there had been any letter fro�a the
abuttinq property owner and the City Engineer said no.
Councilma,r� Liebl said that there would be a lot of people goinq into this
area arid asked about rostroom facilities. Mr. Schroer said t.l�st they have
aqreed to l�t them use theirs. Councilman Liebl said that the Planning
Assist�nt has pointed out that it is a requixement i.n a C-2S Distxict that
there be a sstback of 80 feet, and added that there would be no building
on ti�e land so there would not be the taxes derived. Mr. Schroer said
that there are alread� high taxes paid on this land. He added that this
would ba a one year lease with Green Giant and that the cabana that would
be used a� a sales office would be saleable.
MOTION by Gouncilman Breider to approve th� special use permit fox Green
Giant requested by Mr. Andie Haugen for the sale of swimming poole and
cabanas, the permit to expire October 31, 1971 and at that time the
cabana is to be removed. Also that a letter from Shell waivixq th� public
heara.pg ba obtained. Seconded by Councilman Harris for discussion.
CounciLnan Harris asked i� the swinnning pools would be removed. Mr. Schroer
said if the lease wa� renewed, the pools would stay. If the contract was not
renewed, �vexythinq would be removed. The pools will all be landscaped.
The City Enqineer said that th,e qeneral feeling of the Planning Coarmission
was that this dces not comply with the requirements of the ordina�ce and
they did not think the City oi Fridley is looking fox this type of
deveJ.opment. It was felt that this is an interim type of development with
on�.y a one year lea�e, ao they £elt that they would qive it a try and see
what happen�. A special use permit is only ior a specified t3me and at the
end of that ti.me either it has to be renewed, or everything has to be
remQVed. Gxeen Gisnt must clean up the area and there are to be no
addita.anal salgns or banner�. He added that he had already discussed this
with.Aab acirroer and he understood this.
Councilman Ke].shaw asked if they would be blacktopping the area. The City
Engineer Said that they wquld be usinq cruahed rock and the rest•will be
la�nd$caped. They i�ave aq�eed to keep the crushed rock confined to the
cert.a�in areas .
SPEC;IAL COjJNCTI� MEETTNG OF MA,Y 10, 1971 PAGE 4
Cauncilman Liel�l asked the Citx Engineer if he would recommend this txpe of
business alonq University Avenue. The City Engineer sai8 that there is
a dif�'eX�nce between what you want and what you get and you have to live
with the facts. It is true that this area does need improving. Councilman
Liebl s�id that in the past the Council has made people spend a considerable
amount� of money on commercial areas to comply with the Code and this has
been an�orced. He felt that it wauld be well to continue on this ba$is,
or t,hey wc�uld be accused of favoritism. Mayor Kirkha�a pointed out that
this would be a seasonal permit and the Council would be under no obli-
gation tq xen�w the permit. Council.�►an Liebl felt that if you r�lax the
requixements in this case, you would have to in other cases also. This
Council wants to get in something that looks nice and brinqs in tax revenue.
Mayor Kirkham said that the Council must consider eve� prablem on its merits,
and he did not want to set a precident either, but this special use permit
would be only for a few months on a trial basis.
THE VOTE upon the motion, being a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Kirkham
declared th� motion carried unanimously.

CONSIDERATION OF SPECIAL USE PERMIT, SP #71-05, SHELTER HOMES CORPORATION
PERMIT FOR A MODEL HON� CEN�'�R ON TARGET PF{UPERTY:
The City Eriqineer said that the Planning Com�aissian considered this request
and recotaaaended approval subject to gettinq a waiver of the requirement for
a public hearing and that the wat�r and sewer hookup waiver be approved by
the Health D�partment for a six month duration. If it is to be extended,
there must b� xeapproval by the City. He said that the applicant does
have let�ers from the adjacent property awners waiving the necessity of the
publie hearing. He said that he wanted to emphasize that if this ie
permi,tted, i�. should be on a temporary basis as it is felt that this property
could be used for a better and more productipe use. There is the question
of the water and sewer faailities and he said he also wanted to point out
that thas@ houses could not be built in Fridley as they do not meet the
Code, because they are pre-feb.
Mr. Steve 0'Brien �representing Shelter Homes Corporation, said that they
do produce factory built hoines from their plant in St. Paul. He said that
he wquld like to correct the City Engineer in that this produc� �hey want
to exhibit �s a conventionally built home. All the lumber is pre-cut and
built a� t.�'�e Site in the conventional manner and they would abide by the
Codes necessaXy. They do offer a modular home and this home would be con-
structed to the particular buildinq codes in the coaa�nunity. He sai$ that he

was previouslx associa�t�d with Pemtom, and was asked by Shelter Home
Coxgoration tA �tart a company for them. These homes would appeal to the
$8,000 to $12,000 inco�e level. He said that this was a standard product
with pre-cut �roduction �uch as the �app Hoares. He said they use unionized
labox� �pr �hs constnxc�.ion on the site. The Fridley Target location
appealed to �hem because Target serves the type of people they are trying
to reaeh. This $8,000 to $17,000 cost does not include the land and it
dces not include the ca�apletion of the home. The finishing work could be
left tp t.he hqa�e owner or sub-contracted out. They have land available
in E1k Ra,ver fox sites that are 2 to 5 acres in size. The reason for
qoing farther out in the suburbs is that the land costs are cheaper.
Target fesls that this proposal will brinq in custessers to them. This is
only fox a six month trial basis and if Tarqet does not find them a
suitable tenant they would not renew the lease, or if they find that the
locatipn �s nQt suitable for them they �tould not renew the lease.
Cauncilman Harris asked if they are providing financinq. Mr. O'Brien said
yes, at 7��. This would b� interim financinq. Councilman Harris asked if
this could ccane under F.H.A. 235 program. Mr. O'Brien said yes, and also
under the Farin Hoane Administration. The interim financinq could be for
fraa 2 to 12 y�ars. He added that the two to five acre lots in Elk Ri.ver
could be �urehased for about $5,000. �
Councilmar► Breider said ti�at it appeared that it would be up to the
individual ta do the other work after roughing in. Mr. O'Brien said that
they put t�p the exterior and the fram�, and they provide a list of sub-
contr,actozs for the home awner. They do fin�nce the materials but not
the labor for the sub-contractors. They offer their homes at zero dawn.
They feel that it is better for the home o�wner to use his liquid assets
on the la�bor and the finishing of the home.
Councilman Kelshaw asked what would happen with the house if, in six
months time, the lease is not renewed. Mr. O�Brfen said that they have
arran� �o have the house maved to the nozth within a ten mile radius.
Counailm�n Harris asked if there was any particular reason why this
would have to be acted upon at this meeting. Mr. O'Brien said that of
course, they wQUld like to c�naence as soon as possible. Councilman
Harris said that he would like to consider this further and would like
to wait ur�til next week. Mayor Kirkham agreed.
The Actinq Cit� Manaqer asked what if the ho�ne awner would like to have
them comple�e the whole house, then what about financing. Mr. 0'Srien
said that they could azranqe a conventional loan.
The Cxty Enqineer poi�ted out that there would be no restroom facilities
and the employees wauld have to use those at Tarqet. There is a question
in tha� �ea under Fridley's Code, with people cominq through the property,
and no rest�oom. Mr. O'Brien said that he had discussed this with the
Health annitarian and it woulQ not be econaaically feasible for them to
hook up to sewex and water. This is not a norul proc3edure for a model
homet other model haae$ do not provide restroaa� facilities, they did not
at Petptom. Tarqet has aqreed to let them use their facilities. CounciLnan
Kelsahw pointed out that on Paqe 11 of the Agenda under the Planninq
Comaiss�on mofi.i.ot� it appeared that they were to put in the water and sewer

facili.ti�s. The City Enqineer explained that there are only excerpt�
fxam �he P1a�nnxng Camaission Meetinq and have not been approved by them
as ye�. Tt was his understanding from the meeting that if this was
approved by tki� Council aagd the Health Inspector, they would procesd
without �he facilities. Mx. O'Brien said that if this was extended
after aix mqnths, they would hoak up.
Councilman Kelshaw asked what they would do about heat in the winter.
Mr. O'arxen �aid that they would continue their business and use electrical
heat.
CounciLnan Kelshaw said that it appeared that there would be no electrical
siqn used for advertiainq, and asked what type of advertisittq tHey would use.
Mr. 0'Brien said that they v�euld use a timber type siqn on the lawn, and
they did not anticipate any electric aiqn as being necessary. The
demoqraphias are �uch that they, in themselves, will work for them. There
will npt be a siqn on I. 694, with the landscapinq on the premisea,
anyone txavellinq on I.694 seeinq the madel haae, will recoqnize it as
such, and thi$ will be advextising enough.
Councilnta�n Kelshaw euaked with this proposed location of the building,
wou]�d there sti�l be enough roan for another buildi.ng? The City Enq�.neer
explair�ed that when Tarqet w�s built, this land was to be held in reserve
for additional parking if it should prove necessary.
T1ze City �ngineer asked if they would be putting in blacktopped parking
areas With curb�.ng and Mr. O'Brien said yes, all according to Code.

Mayor Kirkham d�clared the motion carried unanimously.
CONSZDERATION OP' CITY MADiAGER 1�M0 REGARDING CITY GAR�GE:
The Actinq City Manager explained that this memorandum wa,a written because
of some questions raiaed at the last Council Meeting. Councilman Harris
said that he had read the memo and was satisfied that the planning was
correc�. He asked what the Parks Department asked for in their budqet for
a qaraqe. �'he Aating City Manager said that he did not recall, but it was
cut to $3500 for drawi.ng plans for this year.•
CounciLaan Haxris asked haw the garaqe addition xas to be funded. Th�
Actinq City Mrinager said that it would not come out of this years" budge�,
and the first part of the cost wo�ld be in next years' budget. There is a
pos�ibility tha� they could borrow from the Fire Relief Association.
Counai],tnan �reider said in regard to the improvement o€ the exterior of the
garaqe, that they plan on putting in blacktop in the area around the qas
pu�s ��� y¢aa�. HQ did not feel that blacktop would stand up with gasoline
beinq �p�illed o� it. The City Enqineer explained that the City does nav
have a small pavi,ng machine and they could do the work th�nselvas. It was
suqqe$ted that there could be a concrete apron around the pumps and the re�t
bl�cktop.

approaehed on borrowing from them. The Acting City Manager said no, not
formally, it would be investigated. The Chairman of the Fire Relief
Associ�tiqn did say verbally they would have soa�e tttoney available ior
� lendinq. Th�re was some diacussion on whether the lunch room facility
should be in��uded and the Acting City Manager said that he felt that they
should ho�.d �e costs down, but if the Council so desires, it could be
1 includ�d and a�ost estimate �ould be obtained. Ma�+or Kirkham aeked how
many the lunch room hol,ds now, �nd Councilman Liebl said about 12. The
Acting City Manager said that it was too small for both the Parke Depart-
, ment arid the Public Works Departu►ent to eat at the same time, they would

Por six months trial basis, Model Floase Center -- garage to be sales
office. C-2S �oniag. Code: Section 45.101, B, 3N. Target property.
Mr. St�ve 0'Briea explained that Sh�lter Homes Corporation 1s a subsidiary
of She7.tex Corporation of America, Inc. With him this evening was William
Si1vQr of the firm of Gingold, Pink Architecture and Gerald Bond of Shelter
Ham�s. He said that several of the men working With Shelter Homes were for-
saarly with Pemto�, a�nd they have brought fresh and unusual ideas for thi,s
type of home. .
�'h�: hooe is to be conatructed on Target property. The area of the home
is 1.230 square feet, and it is a three bedroom L shaped rmnbler. It would be
put on a pest and beam foundation, and ia a temporary structure. All roome
and the �econd ha�� bath would be finished except the master bedroom. The
raaeua for the unfinished room is to identify the various walls, the various
step$ of canstruction that the houae could be left in. There is a triple garage.
The hous� mi.ght be considered as an offlce if you can call taking dawn cash
pay�ente office procedure, but the final cloaing would be at the main office
at 78th Street and Cedar Avenue.
The 1ac$tion at Target would be easy to find because of the highways.
They could not estimate the volume of people their display would attract, but
they could live With a figure of 3Q0 a week. Their home will be attractively
dvne aad w111 be laadecaped. They have found that the pheno�enon of a model
hpme at a high traffic ar�a ie an effective way to advertise. The land they
would be selling to Would be located in Zi�uerman, Forest Lake, Elk River,
Maple Fla�n and Chis ago Citq.
Mr. 0'$rien continued Chat if conditione are favorable, Shelter Homes
wpuld like the arrangement with Target on a permanent basis.

that the vacation Would not affect that area. There are no utility problems.
He felt there should be a turn around on 78th Avenue near the railroad tracks
as 78th Avenue probably would never be vacated.
Mr. Schmedeke did not see any reason to deny the request being that the awner
is asking for it and there are no problems in connection with utilities.
The Engineering Assiataat felt a cul de sac should be provided with a 60 foot
radius as that is the required size for an industrial area. Fifty foot radius
is standard in residential aress.

recammend approvaZ to the Council of the vacation request, SAV �71-02, Juster
Enterpri ces, Inc., Leonard Jus ter, President, to vacate the a11ey in B1ock 3

reqvest, SP i�71-04, by Thomas Annett to construct a second garage at 5949 Fourth

a11 voting aye, the motion carried unanimously.
3. REQUEST TO APPROVE ()ONCEPT OF PRELIMINARY PLAN FOR TOWNHOUSE DEVELOPMENT,
R�DGER LARSON: North 813 feet of the East three quartera of the NE'� of the
N � of Section 13.
Chairman Erickson recalled that thia property was rezoned R-3 about two or
three years ago. At that time an apartment could be built for every 2,500 square
feet. Tawnhouses require 3,000 aquare feet. Ordinance No. 443 was adopted on
December 15, 1969 but tite publication was to be held up until certain agreements
were signed. Theae agreements referred to the Southern most part of the property
whi�h was to be deeded to the City escept 160 feet which could be used as density.
Darrel Clark said he understood the probate court would be able to release
the portion to the City prior to settling of the entire eatate. He did not
believe the petitioner was the fee awner yet.
In discussing the rough drawing of the tawnhouse development plaaned for
this area, the first impression was the area was full of buildings and parking
lots.
, Chairman Erickeon said the townhouse section of the ordinance is a new one.
It was not studied by the Planning Co�iasion, but was added after the Co�is-
sion finished their study. The ordinance permits townhouses in Fridley. If a
preliminary plan ia up for approval, the landscaping, etc. haa to be shown.
' This plan does not ahaw it. He felt the Commission would be within their rights
to acknawledge the fact that the townhouse concept is all right in this area,
but did not approve thia one because the informa�i.ozt fu�Cniahgd was not adequate.

He would prefer to see the garages combined with the stxuctures so that one can
see aare green space.
Peter Herlofakq added that either rental or a�mer tawnhouses are allawed
in R-3. I�n R-1, the awner has to be the occupant.
MOTION by Schmedeke, seconded by Zeglen, that the Planning Coirm►ission table
the request by Roqer Larson to approve the.c�ncept of the preliminary plan for
a townhouse development on the North 813 feet of the East Three Quarters of the
NE�of the NE� of Section 13, until the petitioner appears. Upon a voice vote,
a11 voti.ng aye, the motion carried unanimously.

CONS
HAYES
CONCEPTS RESE
Mr. Elmer Hoffineyer from New Concepts Research Corporation was present.
Chairman Erickson reported the action of the Subcommittee was to approve
the concept and asked if all the requirements of the ordinance had been met.
Mr. Hoffineyer eaplained what information he had ready and said he had
' ordered a topog of the area but hadn't seen it qet. The lots are fairly flat
and slope dcwn to the river. The development will be 56 townhouse units, nine
of which will be aloag Anna Avenue, the balance will be in blocks of nine and
five. There will be a swimming pool in the middle and green area throughout.
, There will be a two car tuck under garage in the basement, and the laundry snd
workroom will also be there. There will be a split entry, living room, deck
loolcing over the back towards the river and dining area. The second floor will
� have a half bath and two bedroo�s. The units will be ataggered to get as much
light and shadow as possible. Materials will be brick with wood infill. Under
the present program, they will be rental with the possibility of conversion
' and then they would convert to a cnndominiwa. They meet the requirements of
the land coverage, in fact, they were a few units under.
Darrel Clark volunteered that there is sewer and water in Anaa Street, but
' if it will be deep e�pygh for the apartmenta next to the river, they would not
lcnow until Mr. Hoffineqer presented his topog. Mr. Hoffman said that there would
be no parking lot. They felt Cba,t a two car garage snd room oa the apron for
' two more, would be adequate. The street is a narmal residential street and goes
through the center of the concept. This atreet could be used for excess parking.
They plan to use Linden and Sunburst Locust trees for the area.
,
'
'
'
Darrel Clark told Mr. Hoffineyer that if the land dropped 12 feet fram the
front to the back, he Would have a problem with the sewer.
MOTION by l�tinish, seconded by Fitzpatrick, that the Planning Comaission
appxove the concept of the Townhouse Development on Lots 3 and 4, Block 2,
Asyes Ri ver Lots by New Concepts Research Corporstion with the understanding
that this does not c�pr�stitute approval of the prel.iminary plans, and that the
procedure must be followed as contained in the Ordinance 45.14 Tavnhouse Develop-
ment. Upon a voi ce vote, a11 voting aye, the motton carried unanimously.
Mr. iioffineyer said he Will get the working drawinga done and the rest of
the in#oxmation needed. He did not believe the request should go to Council
at this time.

Chairman Erickson recalled that this same request �aa made about a year ago

7. REQUEST FOR SPECIAL USE PERMIT, SP #71-05, SHELTER HOMES CORP.: Permit
for six months trial basis, Model Home Center -- garage to be sales
office. C-2S zoning. Code: Section 45.101, B, 3N. Target property.
Mr. Steve 0'Brien explained that Shelter Homes Corporation is a subsidiary
of Shelter Corporation of America, Inc. With him this evening was William
Silver of the firm of Gingold, Pink Architecture and Gerald Bond of Shelter
Homes. He said that several of the men working with Shelter Homes were for-
merly with Pemtom, and they have brought fresh and unusual ideas for this
type of home. ,
The hotue is to be constructed on Target property. The area of the home
is 1,230 square feet, and it is a three bedroom L shaped rambler. It would be
put on a post and beam foundation, and is a temporary structure. All rooms
and the second half bath would be finished except the master bedroom. The
reason for the unfinished room is to identify the various walls, the various
steps of construction that the house could be left in. There is a triple garage.
The house might be considered as an office if you can call taking dawn cash
payments office procedure, but the final closing would be at the main office
at 78th Street and Cedar Avenue.
The location at Target would be easy to find because of the highways.
They could not estimate the volume of people their display would attract, but
they could live with a figure of 3A0 a week. Their home will be attractively
done and will be landscaped. They have found that the phenomenon of a model
home at a high traffic area is an effective way to advertise. The land they
would be selling to would be located in Zimmerman, Forest Lake, Elk River,
Maple Plain and Chisago City.
Mr. 0'Brien continued that if conditions are favorable, Shelter Homes
would like the arrangement with Target on a permanent basis.
Chairman Erickson said a special use permit requires a public hearing.
This item caane in today with another request. Technically, the Planning Com-
mission can't act until there has been a public hearing or unless the adjacent
pxoperty owners waive the puhlic hearing. Mr. 0'Brien said that they would
appreciate a decision by thr- �irst of June or at least by the fifteenth of
June.

2. CONSIDERATION OF A REQUEST TO CONSTRUCT A CHAPEL HOUSE LOCATED ON LOT 10,
' BLOCK 1, RICE CREEK TBRRACE PLAT 1, TH� SAME BEING 501 MISSISSIPPI ST�BT,
FRIDLEY, MINNESOTA. (RBQUEST BY FRIDLEY CHURCH OF CHRIST, 1100 - 63RD
AVENUE N.E., FRIDLEY,'MINNSSOTA.)
'
'
Mr. Leif Iienrikson was present to present the request.
Mr. Henrikson stated that the Church owns this lot and are in the process
of obtaining the two adjoining lots. There is an old foundation on the
lot where the Church will be built and this will be removed.
' The building will be face brick part way up and cedar siding the rest of
the way with shutters on the windows. The roof will be asphalt shingles.
The doors will be metal with same sort of design in them. There will be
, two entrances to the building. The main entrance will have 4� stairways
and the back entrance will have 3` stairways.
The Board questioned whether these stairways were wide enough. They
' stated that for functions such as funerals, these stairways may aot be
adequate.
' Mr. Henrikson stated that this was a good point. He said that perhaps they
could move the outside wall out a little ways. He said they would also
like to move the back stairway outside with a covering over it because the
� stairway was interferring with the place.ment of the pulpit. They would
like to put the pulpit in the center of the sanctuary and with the stairway
there they could not.
'
'
'
'
The Board suggested that perhaps they could add an addition to the back
for the stairway. In this way they could make this stairway wider and it
would enable them to put the pulpit in the center of the sanctuary. It
would then not be necessary to add onto the outside wall.
Mr. Henrikson stated that that would eliminate the problem with the
pulpit. It would also give them one wider stairway.

said that they would verify the location of the storm sewer on the site
with the Engineering Department. Mr. Henrikson said that they would
change the parking spaces from 19� t� 20' bg� ��������� ��� ������' aisle
of parking and adding 6 additional parkin� s�aces to �he west to meet
the City ordinances.
� The Board asked if there would be any type of security lighting. Mr.
Henrikson said that the main entrance will be lighted and there will also
be a light over the back door. He also said that he lives directly across
' Seventh Street from the Church and he is having a mercury light put in his
backyard which will also light up the parking lot of the Church.
�
MOTION by White to recommend approval of a building permit subject to the
changes made on the plans including the following stipulations:
1. That storm sewer be provided to tie into the City street as
' required by City code. The location is to be verified on site

THE MINUTES OF THE BOARD OF APPEALS MEETING OF MAY 11, 1971

r�ERS ABSENT: Drigans
OTHERS PRESENT: A1 Bagstad-Building Official
MOTION by Ahonen to approve the minutes of the April 27, 1971 meeting.

SAME BEING 7451 EAST RNER ROAD N.E., FRID�LEY MINNESOTA. CRDQUEST BY SUPERIOI
Mr. Anderson, representing Lawrence Sign Company, was present to present the
request. A drawing of the sign and plot plan were presented to the Board.
Mr. Anderson explained there was an existing sign at this location until a car
hit it and broke the pole. He continued they will be reglacing the sign exactly
as it was before. A new pole, new foundation and new plastic faces will be
used but they will be reusing the same sign frame, race�aays and some of the
old wiring.
Mr. Ahonen asked why the sign that is going to be put up cannot confornn to
the code?
Mr. Anderson answered the owners would like to s�lvage as much of the old sign
as possible to keep the cost down. Rebuilding this sign would cost somewhere
around $500.00 but to build a whole new sign would be in the area of $1,000 to
$1700. Al�o the owners feel they need the size to catch the eye of the fast
mov ing traffic on East River Road.
Mr. Bagstad stated this station does have extra signs up that should be taken
down before a new sign pexmit is issued and the Building Inspection Department
would like the Board to take this into consideration when they make their
recomaendation to the Council.
1�TION by Sondheimer to close the public hearing.
Seconded by Harju. Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, the motion carried
unanimously.
MOTION by Ahonen to recoffiend to the Council approval of the variance as 2/3
of the si,gn will be recovered by using the same frame, raceways and some wiring.
This motion would be contingent upon remaval of all non-conforming signs.
Seconded by 9ondheimer. Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, the m�tion
carxied unanimously.

Mr. Harju abstained from taking part on this request.
Mr. Bachand was present to present the request. A plot plan was shown to the
Board.
Mr. Bachand explained this is basically an addition onto the living room
which is presently 12 feet by 21 feet approximately. He added he can't
add onto either side of the house because of the setbacks and to add onto
the back of the house would just be enlarging the bedroom.
The Board asked what setback the adjacent houses had and if he had notified
the neighbors (other than the public hearing notice that was sent out) and
if he had heard their feelings on the addition.
Mr. Bachand stated the houses are all set back 35 feet and he had not talked
, to his adjacent neighbors about th is variance. He added his one neighbor's
garage is in between the two houses so the neighbor should not object to the
addition.

Mr. Casserly said Rose Real Estate has now proposed to build a 24 foot by 4E� foot
house on the lot and then after it is sold I will get the money for the lot.
Mr. Mattson explained the property is without a pezmit to build and without a
1 building the lot is useless. We do intend to build a house on the lot that
will meet all the City Cod�s but before we come up with a house plan we aeed the
permission of the City to build on this lot.
'
'
'
Mr. Herb Bloom, 5611-6th Street was present to voice his objections to the
request. His main objection was that cars for the double bungalow would have
to park on the street if a house was built on this lot, as the cars now use this
lot as parking area, Also the kids from the double bungalow use this land as
play area as the bungalow has no back yard to speak of.
Mr. Ma.ttson asked what is going to become of this lot if Mr. Casserly doesn't
get a pextnit to build on it?
Chairman Minish stated he felt the Board needed more infornoation about the
' house that is proposed to be built and where it will be located on the lot,
before they could make a reco�endation to the Council.
� Mr. Sondhei.mer asked if Mr. Casserly or Rose Real Estate had personally
contacted the bungalow owners to see if they would buy the lot?
Mr. Casserly stated the land has been for sale for 3 years and a sign has
� been up stating such and the owner of the bungalow has not contacted hi.m
concerning buying it.
'
�
�
�
�
'
�
,
Mr. Mattson stated he could call the owners again and ask them if they would
be interested in buying the land.
MOTION by Sondheimer to table this request until the May 25, 1971 meeting to allow
the applicant time to contact the property owners of both the lst and 2nd
double bungalow (5600-02 6th Street and 5606-08 6th Street) and ask them if
they would be willing to buy the land.
If they don't accept the offer to buy the land, the applicant furnish a site
plan so that the Board can see the relationship of the house to the lot.
Seconded by Ahonen. Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, the motion carried
unanimously.

MOTION by Sondheimer to remove this item from table.
Seconded by Aarju. Upoa� a voice vot�a th�xe b�i.ng a�� n�ys, the motion
carxied unanimously.
Mr. Housenga, Area Sngineer, was present to present the request.
Mr. Hpusenga went over briefly what had been discussed at the March 23, 1971
, meeting. He also apolQgized to the Board for not being able to make the
last 2 �eetings.
� Mr. Housenga stated that as he understood it, the City has no ds�inite
plans to acquire the land for a turning lane which Mr. Bagstad had brought
up during the March 23, 1971 meeting.
'
�
�
�
��
�
�
Mr. Bagstad answered that this was correct.
Mr. Hausenga stated that if they had the land to spare, they would be very
willing to do so.
Ghairman Minish stated the request had been tabled to allaw the applicant
time to draw up plans for a lower height for the sign.
Mr. Housenga said they had taken everything into consideration and decided
the least that they could get by with on a sign height would be 40 feet.
Otherwise the sign would get tangled up with the highline wires. He
continu�d the present sign is on the public sidewalk and is also to close
to the property lines so it has to come down. The present sign is 7 feet by
10 feet and the proposed sign is 6 feet by 10 feet. The actual square
£ootage is only 53 square feet as th is is an oval sign and this is below
what the code requires. The new sign will be a little different in color
and wil� have a slight slant to the letters but there will be no major
changes.
The sign at the height of 40 feet will be right below the Phillip's sign
and right above the Holly Shopping Center �ign.
M�,OTION by Sondheimer to recou�end to the Council approval of a ne�a free
� standing sign to be located on part of the N.W. � of the S.W.� of Section
14, to be raised to a total height of 40 feet with the sign being actually
53 squaxe feet and placed in the Iocation just South of the eastern pump.
�
�
�
�
,
Seconded by Harju. Mr. Harju added that this is approved with the
uncierstanding that the present sign is to be taken down.
Upon a vo�,ce vote, there being no nays, the motion carried unanimously.
The Minutes of the Board of Appeals Meeting of May 11, 1971 Pa�e 5
Mr. Ahonen stated he would like at this time to submit his verbal resignation
to the Chaizu�an from the Board to become effective at the discretion of the
Chai.rman but to be no later than July, 1971. He told tbe Board that his
reason for l�aving the Board is that fie is moving to Wisconsin.
Chairman Minish accepted the verbal resignation.

MEMO T0; Marvin Brunaell, Acting City Manager
MII�iO FROM: Lester E. Chesney, Directox of Public Works
DATE: M�y 6, 1971
SUBJECT; Sewer Backup - 281 - S7th Place Northeast
This is in answer to the letter of May 1, 1971 from Max D.
Aapka about a sewer backup in his home at 281 - 57th Place N.E., Fridley,
Minnesota. A call was made to our Police Department in the evening on
April 2�, 1971 (about 7:00 P.M.), requesting the use of the City sewer
tape. The caller was given the phone number of Mr. Silseth, City Sewer
Man, and he made the same request to use a sewer tape. He told our
Sewer Man that the plugup was in his home laundry line. He w�as given
the uae of our sewer tape.
On Thursday, April 22, 1971, at about 10:00 A.M. a call
was made to City Hall informing us that they were still havin.g trouble
and that they t�ad called in a man with a roto rooter machine. He
stated that the plugup was probably in the City sewer line. A Sewer
Crew was immediately dispatched to the home to check, and the;y did find
a plugup in the main aewer line. The City Crew brought our r�odding
machine and opened our line in about one-half hour. Then, th�e base-
ment drained.
1 I believe if the party had allowed us to check on� the first
day of trouble, we could have prevented any further problems. They
' would have had no need for a roto rooter machine. I also hav�e a report
from our Sewer Man.

RE: Traffic Study on Jackson Street
We have studied the Jackson Street traffic and our
recommendations are that:
1. We install additional speed limit sign on the South side
of Jackson Street.
2. Crosswalk lines and pedestrian warning signs be installed
on Jackson Street on both sides of the intersection with
75th Avenue.
3. Police patrol the area more frequently and m�aybe do some
saturation enforcement action over a certain. period.
4. Citizens in the area report to the police wh.en they see
people speeding on the street.
Installation of "Stop" signs on 75th and Jacksc�n is not
recommended at this time because speed control is nc►t the proper
function of "Stop" signs and there are studies showi.ng that
unwarranted "Stop" signs can cause additional traffi.c hazards
due to people getting irritated and also, there is �i problem of
noise when these people speed away from the signs.
We are working with the Highway Department for installation
of traffic signals at 73rd Ave. and T.H. #65 which would also
help the situation.
We will continue to study the traffic situation on this
street and recommend further action when warranted.

Dear Mr. Herrick:
333-6561
AREA CODE 612
This is to confirm our telephone conversation of May 7,
1971, regarding the above captioned matter.
As I indicated, our client has expressed an interest
in purchasing the property owned by Roger Gilchrist at 73rd
� ancl Central Avenue N. E. The property would be continued
for use as an auto parts business.
' However, prior to serious negotiations with Mr. Gilchrist,
we feel it would be advisable to meet with the appropriate Village
officials to see what requirements they might have for permitting
' � Northern Auto Parts to operate at the aforementioned premises.
,
'
I-would appreciate hearing from you as to when such a
meeting could be arranged.

HOUSE FILE �1272 AND COMPANION SENATE BILL RELATING TO USE OF
1970 CENSUS FOR CIGARETTE, LIQUOR AND SATES TAX DISTRIBUTION
The attached letter from the Manager of New Hope outlines the
problem concerning distribution of cigarette, liquor and sales
taxes for the year 1971. If the State Auditor does not use the new
1970 figures, the City of Fridley could lose $43,018. In making up
the budget for the year 1971, the City of Fridley, as well as most
of the other municipalities, used the new 1970 census in computing
the amount of money it would receive from these taxes. We will be
short in our revenue by this amount if the new census figures are
not used.
� The attached resolution would state the Council's position on
the matter as being in favor of the passage of House File ��1272 and
the companion Senate Bill.

Dear Mr. Brunsell:
MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA 56428
P6oae 333-/52/

On March 25, 1971 the Goverrnnental Operati�ons Comnittee
of the House gave approval to House File 1272 which will re-
quire that the State Auditor make distribution of State Aid
funds for 1971 on 1970 census data rather than on census data
from 1960 or 1965.
In that the 1910 census data was certified by the Governor
after the first-half distributions of 1971 State Aid funds for
liquor and cigarette taxes were made, the State Auditor made
these distributions on 1960 or 1965 census data. To ensure
that the second-half 1971 distribution of State Aid funds pro-
vides for the necessary adjustment of the first-half distribu-
tion, it is the opinion of State Auditor Rolland Hatfield that
House File 1272 must be approved. It is understood that this
bill has been passed by the House and for the last few weeks
has been before the Senate Corronittee on Taxes. At a hearing
before this Comnittee last week it is understood that Senator
Dean Nyquist, who is the chief author of the Senate companion
file, did not appear on behalf of the bill and that the chances
for its passage now seem remote.
If such a bill is not approved, the Vi�lage of New Hope
will lose $19,532 from funds for liquor and cigarette taxes.
Also, State Auditor Hatfield has said that it is a strong
passibility that the first-half distribution of general sales
tax State Aid will not be made on the 1970 census data. This
could mean an additional loss of over $42,000 to New Hope.
In that New Hope has increased in population from 11,620 in
1965 to 23,180 in 1970, or a total increase of 11,560, I
would assume that the potential loss to the City of Fridley
would also be very significant due to the increa�se in
population which your comnunity has experienced since the
last census. If this assumption is correct, we would ask
that you or a r�presentative of your comnunity contact Senator
Nyquist to ensure that he appears before the Senate Committee
on Taxes on this bill before the end of the current session
and works toward its passage.

� INFORMATION FOR PRESENTATION
' ON BILL TO REQUIRE DISTRI�UTION
OF STATE AIDS TO MUNICIPALITIES
IN 1971 6ASED ON 1970•CENSUS DATA
,
IJ
lJ
�
In Juiy. 1970 the Village of New Hope requ�sted thet the
Sfiate af Minnesota make a determination on whether the dtstribu-
tion of State Aids to municipalities in 1971 would be based on
1970 c�nsus data or on ce�sus data from 1960 and/or 1965. The
Village ot New Hope sought this information so that accurate
revenue projections couid be included in 197i Operati�g Budget,
t�s the Village had a 1965 census flgure of 11,620 and a 1970
census total of 23,087 population,
, On September. 1 1, 1970 Attorney �nera 1[��� ��� R�i� i�s��sd
an opinfo� on this matter as requested by Sta�� Auditor �81111�
0'�rien. This opinion notes that in construir�g th� nature and
�xtent of the duties imposed on the State Auditor under Sections
' 297A.51 to 297A.60 of th� State Code i� is necessary "to as-
Ce�tai� and effectuate the intention of the legislature" a�0 that
prtor to September 20, 1970 the State Auditor must give am�unts
, due in 1971 to all townships, cities, villages, bo�oughs, countiss
��d schooi distrtcts tSection 297A.58). The opinion contlnues by
stating that:
'
�

'

"The obJects to be attained under this statutory
5cheme are twofold: (1) distrlbution is to be or►
a'per capita' basis, and (2) taxinq districts must
be afforded sufficient notice of amounts due in
the foilowing yea►' so they can properly determine
their p�operty tax levies. The achievement of 'a
per capita' distribution in 1971 requires the
use of the rtast recent population figures for the
State in deternnininq the per capita distributive
shares for the purpose of �the September estimate.
Dus to substantial shifts in population ove� #he
past decade, the 1960 census figures are no lonqe�
reflective af actuai poputation. The use of the
196Q census tigu�es in estimating and distributi�g
of these 1970 tax recsipts would frustrate the in-
tent of the legislature to make dist�ibution on a
truiy 'per capita' basis."
Also, the opinlon notes that the Septembe� estimate of per
captta distributive shares should be made on pretiminary t97�0
census fiqures with necessa�y adJustments to be made in the
followi�q year to reflect the actuat receipts which Nouid be basod
o� finai 1970 census data.

In short, the opinion states that Sections 297A.5) to 297A.60
authortzes the State Auditor to use preliminary 1970 census figures
to detErmine per capita distributive shares for estimates of funds
to be distributed in 1971 to municipalities and school districts
and that said distribution in 1971 should be based on the 1970
census. Based on this determination the Viliage of New HoQe and
Minnesota municipalities and school districts prepared their 197!
Operating Budgets. '
In the last several weeks, it,was learned that the first-half
distrtbutions of 1971 State Aid funds tor liquor and ciga�ette
taxes had been made or 1960 and 1965 census data. Thfs distrtbu-
tion means a loss of funds to the Vtllaqe o� Nw �b� ef i19,532.
On further investigation of this matter, it was found that the
first-half distribution of general sales tax State Aid which is
to be made on June 15th each year may well be based on the 1960
and 1965 census data. (State Auditor Rolland Hatfteid has said
that there is a strong possibility that this will happen.) It
this Is the case, the total loss in revenue to the Village of New
Hope would be over �62,000 on the first-halt dtst�ibutio� for
State Aid for general sales, liquor and clgarette taxes. It is
thought that additional revenue losses in the am�unt of over
$40,000 would result if State Aid funds for fire insurance
premium tax and highway use� taxes were based on 1960 anC 1965
census data as these sources are in part based on population.
(NOTE: For each source, 50 percent of tunds are based on popu-
lation).
If the loss to the Vitlage of New Hope is only fpr the first-
haif di5tribution of funds for general sates, liquor and cigarette
texes or in the amount of $62,000 this would seriously affect the
vtability of the i97! Ope�ating Budget as it would represent
almost 6 percent of the total 1971 Operating Budget. (NOTE: Total
Operating Budget is E1,094,951.) Thi"s loss in funds would equal
almost 3 I/2 milis in property tax of ove� 10 �p�t of sll
revenue�from property taxes. The Village of New Hope could not,
of course, increase the property tax for this year. Tfie only
alte�native aould be�to seriously cut back on the levels of municT•
pal services provided to our citizens. The Village departments
that would most likely be affected would be the Police Depertment
and the Park and Recreation Department each of which have an annual
budqet of approximately $250,000. It, for examp{e, the cut back
would be applied to the Police Department almost one-third of the
police personnel would have to be dismissed. If the cut bt�ck is
aRP�1ed to the Park and Recreation Depa�tment the municipal
swimming pool could not be operated in 1971 and most summer pro-
c�rams would be seriously affected.

O�

In b�ief, the loss of these State Aid funds would be
cdta�fi rophic for the Viliage of New Hope and many cortimunities and
sehool districts In the State of Minnesota. Such governmental
bodies will be penalized fo� planning their 1971 Operating 8udgets
based on the opinion of the Attorney Gene�al. The only
�emedy to this dilemma is to enact legislation.that will authorize
the State Auditor's Office to adJust the second-half 1971 dlstribu-
tion of State Aid�funds to compensate for the fact that the first-
half distribution was based on 1960 and 1965 census data. We
respectively request the State legislature's support for such
legislation.
