Planning Commission Meeting - December 8, 1971 Page 3 Mr. Harold Lind, 6076 Woody Lane: There has been,��oad put in, but if a culvert were installed, Mr. Lind would have no objections. The driveway is in, but no culvert under it. Mr. Utter explained that seven years ago Mr. Nelson and he got the City to put in a temporary storm sewer that goes back to within 44 feet o£ Old Central and empties there. Wtzen the County put in Old Central, he asked the County if they would put a culvert on private land. Water has been running ov�r the propertq. As of now, it is in the process of being connected so there would not be any water problem once ft is connected. The City Engineer said that originally when this area was developed, there was no storm sewer. In 1965 the Public Work.s Department put in a storm sewer. Recently they have extended the pipe clo�er to the culvert. Probably a culvert will be installed under the driveway next spring. Hopefully the drainage problem will be solved in this area and there will be no water standing on the lot South of Lot 6. It is too l�te in the season now to finish the work.

PUBLIC HEARING: GONSIDERATIOI3 OF A PROPOSED PRELIMINARX PLA.T, P.S_.__�71-04, BURLINGTON DiORTH�R�T ITdDLISTRIA.L PA�RK 7.��..-'� N0. 1- FRIDLEY� BY BURLINGTON NOBTHERN,�INC.: Being a replat of the East 333 feet of Lots 3, 4, 6, 7 and 8, except the South 200 feet of Lot 6, and East 333 feet of Lot 2 lying Northerly of I-�69�+, Auditor's Subdivision #78, subject to easements of record. Mr. Robert ii. Brokopp, Supervisor of Title and Closing, of Burlington No7rthern Inc. w�s present. MOTION by Schrnsdeke, seconded by Fitzpatrick, that the Planning Commission waive the.readinq of the Public Hearing Notice %r conszderation of the propnsed prelim.inary p1at, P.S. #71-04, Burlington Northern Industrial Park Plat No. 1- Fridley by Burlinqton Northern, Inc. Upon a voice vote, a11 voting aye, the motion carried vnanimously. Mr. Qureshi said that this plat is part of an agreement made with Burlington Northern about a year ago. The City wanted the East half of this property platted into smaller lots so the land would not be occupied by the railroad company but rather be sold to other developers for smaller industrial sites. They felt this would be one way to provide a buffer between the railroad tracks for the people living on the East sidz of Main Street and secondly getting some property back on the City tax roll. The railroad company is on the tax roll now for the land, but the additional tax would be for the buildings. � j � � � � � �J � � � � � � � � i � � L Plannin� Commission Meeting - December 8, Z971 Page 4 Mr. Brokopp explained that the Southern boundary, Lot 3, Block 3, is not definitely decided yet because of legal claims concerning I-694, and by the time the final p�at is ready� they hope to have this solved. Another part of the agreement was to give Main Street access in line wi�h 57th Avenue and that access has been provided. . Mr. Schmedeke, Chairman of Plats & Subdivisions-Streets & Utilities Subcom- mittee, added that this item was before his committee an hour prior to this meaCing. He was happy to see the land was going to b� developed for amalZ industrial sites bordering on Main Street. He thought the people in that area, and his area included, were afraid it would be a switching yard. He felt the C�,.ty �hould be complimenting the railroad company for working the prob].em out in this manner. In answer to Chairman Ericksan's question if there wexe any other agree�ents tnade between the Council and railroad, Mr. Qureshi answered "no". Thexe weXe no covunittments, merely the �ast 300 feet be platted i.nto industrial areas. The watermain is in the middle of the property and easements are provided for that too. Chairman Erickson commented that, suppose the City decided they do not want a piggyback yard anywhere, could the City deny the request? Probably they can, Mr. Qureshi answered. The City does have an ordinance that prohibits this Use. Chairman Ericicson continued, that supposing the plat is approved and the City does not approve the request for a pi�gyback yard, would this affect the accesa? Mr. Qureshi said the City has access �t 57th and 61st Avenue, and the sewer line on Main Street. Chairman Erickson said h� was not in favor of a piggyback yard. Mr. Minish questioned whether or not there should be more access to the interior lots. Mr. Herbert H. Neeser, 6220 Starlite $1vd.: Mr. Neeser understood the railroac� tracks would stop at 61st, but a track was laid right behind his home and this was in addition to the main line. To him it looked like switch-- ing tracks. Mr. Qureshi said it probably was a temporary storage yard until they got theix railroad yard on 43rd Avenue built. He understood this was only a temporary use of the property. Mr. Brokopp said he was not prepared to talk about tracks, as he was not �amiliar with it at all. It is railroad right of way and they have been there long before any houses were there. Being what it is, he thou�ht Chey could atill be there and operate and not do anything you would not expect along the railroad right of way. � � � � C� � � �� . � I � .I , I � I � � Planning Commission Meeting - December 8�1971 PaAe 5 Robert Traczyk, 6000 Txinity Drive: He would oppose the railroad coming out on 61st Avenue with the piggyback. 61st Avenue is a fairly new stxeet and the City �ust put in curb and gutter. The Reighborhood was ge�ting away from this kind of traffic. iie complimented the City on that. He was opposed to piggyback. If the Burlington Northern owns property on the ath�x side of the tracks which leads into Ea�t River Road, why couldn't they go off that way? Irtr. Qureshi exp�,�ined that what the railroad company as doing now is what the Ci�y required th�m to da. The City does r�ot want th�.s prop�rty developed into another railroad use, but industria�.- One year ago, with this in mind, the City requixed them to plat in oxdet to diccourage use fox rai�.road purposes. The tnajor portian of th� land owned by-the railroad is heavy industrial, but the propex�ty abuttiu� 6�.st Avenue is �ight industri.al. William Fin�C, 6101 Starlite Blvd.: He said they have I�.ved there a long t�me. They had been told there wou].d be apartments acxosa tbe street� but ; never industrial. At qne time the land waa to be platted for a achool, but the p�ics was too high, He underatood a park was pxoposed too, but now, .$�►aa��.y, it ie back �o light industrial. Chairman �rickson said the proper�y had not changed xan�ng fox many year�. It was unfortunate they were told that. . Mrs� Lorayr�e Fin#�, 6101 Stsr7.ite 81.vd.: Wfien they tnoved into their housa, they queatio�ed the xai�.�oad �rack. They wexe to�d there wou�d be one train � d�y. They c�ecked on a buffer zoue. The City Engineer at that time came over. The only thin� hs was concern�d with was th� trses �bat were never ` pl�nted. Ghairma� �r�ckson said the C�.ty was not responaible far the buffer zone. Mx'�. Fink asked if the Commisaion felt tha light industria]. wauld hurt their property and what about the park. Mr. Fitzpatrick explained h� was the Chairman of the Pax'ks and Recreat�.on Commission aad that they have discussed the use a� this l.and, and down to 43xd Avenue, for pax�CS from t�.me to time. It wa� tnuch too expensive groperty �or the City to buy for p$rks. The Ci.ty Aow has a� arran�ement for the use of sotne of this land on 49th for a park., bu� there never was a real�stic poasi- bil.ity �or this land to be acqu�.red for a park. Mr• Schmedeke said that he was trying to brin$ out that this present propo�al bordexin� on Main Stree�, 300 feet deep, ta put light industxial bu�ldings there instead of piggyback services, was our best altQrnate. The Ci.ty has control over th� type af buildings and the greenery around them and to say how they should be conetructed. He was eure the memb�re of this Commission would not sell Cha people down the river to piggyback services. He has been ehouting a long x�me for evergreen plantings for landscaping and buffer. He was certait� the City was not trying to hurt the people. The Planning Commission•au�gested to Mr. and Mrs. Fink that if they had knowledge that the City was a party 1n the agreement for trees for a buffer zone, they ahould bring it before the Council. Mr. Minish be�ieved this waa �t matter of a private agreement with Carleon and LaVine� and if there was a written agreem�nt, it ahould be produced. `� i� � � Planniz��Co�nission MeetinR - December 8, 1971� Page 6 Ronald McClain, 6Q07 Main Street: He wondered why there wasn't a railroad crossing at 61st Avenue. � Mr. Qureshi said the City has gone before the Public Service Commission of the Railroad Commission requesting a crossing and was turned down. The way � it looks now, the railroad crossing is an impossibility. The City is working � to get a grade separation on Mississipgi Street so that we have better access at that point. � , � � � � � r�, ,,l � � Mr. Minish asked if the railroad approved the crossing on 61st Avenue and the answer was they opposed it. He then asked why they opposed it. Mr. Brokopp answered that this would be a very large crossing. Extensive � hearings were held before the Railroad Commission and permission was refused. � The undergass on Mississippi Street is more sensible in order to keep the ! cars away from the tracks. � �', ,. � � Mr. Brokopp said the City has an easement for 61st Avenue access. They gave up enough of their property so that access could be grovided for Starlite Boulevard. They cooperated again with the City at that time. This platting of blst Avenue is not anything new, but was put on th�'�plat by coincidence with the platting down in Sylvan Hills. Mr. Minish asked if two access roads would be sufficient. Mr. Fitzpatrick said he had the same question. This proposal would be for pretty heavy traffic along 62st Avenue. Mr. Ferris D. Palmer, 6018 2nd St. N.E.: He said he did not know how long thg railroad company owned the property. In 1950 cows were grazing behind their lot. Why isn't the property zoned commercial? � MOTION by Zeglen, seconded by Fitzpatrick, that the �lanning Commission close the public hearinq of the proposed Preliminary P1at, P.S. #71-04, BUrlington Northern Industrial Park Plat No. 1- Fridley, by Burlington Northern, Inc. Upon a voice vote, a1I votinq aye, the motion carried unanimously. Chairman Ex'ickson asked to see a copy of the Council Agreement with the railroad campany. The City Engineer passed out copies to all the members. Mr. Qureshi said that the railroad would participate in the railroad separation on Mississippi Street, which, basically, is County road. The City requested by Resolution the need of the grade separation. Anoka County has engaged Engineers to t�ake a feasibility study. He continued that in the last eight years the crosso'ver at Mississippi Street has been discussed but the County controls the road. Originally it was the railroad company that was not favorable to the crossover, but that has been solved. The only support the railroad will give Fridley is befoxe the Railroad Commission. The reasons given far the delay by Anoka County were money and the people in the North area who feel because it is a large sum of money, wish the money could be spent better elsewhere in the County. The County still has a rural flavor. The railroad will be paying 10� of the cost. C� i � � � � � , � � � � � Q . . Planning Commission Meeting - December 8, 1971 Page 7 Mr. Minish mada a comment regarding the railxoad company not to add any new tracks North of blst Avenue. In the discusaion thak fol�.owed, it was pointed out that within the �ailroad right of way, Burli.ngton �1a�th�rn.daes have some extXa contxol. Mr. Minish wonclered if li.ght industrial was tha , best forui of zoning for this area. Mr. QureShi said this wouJ.d be the h�ghest Use of the land bec�use of the closenese of the tracks, The City cannot �Qn� down without due compensation. Chairman Ericksan said tha� in the original r;tgh� of way, the railroad company could use it in any way they wished within the limits of the Federal law. In order to use mos� of the propexty b�tWeen M�in Street and the tracks� the railroad will have to apply for parmita under � our Ordinancs. So Ch� people and the City do have some protection. Mr. Schmedeke said he did not know what else the Co�ission cauld aek for. It seeffied the petition�r ca�e up with ex�ctly what the Gouncil aslced. He was �ure the members on this Commission would frown on piggybacks. Even though the xailroad plans to use the Easterly 300 feet of the existing properfiy,it is pos�ible if there is a plsnt which needs more land tk�an the plat provides, they can actu�lly bui].d �y placing the structure on the lot in such a fashion th�t tttey wil� just need �n easemQnt to get acc�ss to Maita Street. Thi� would be no prob�.em. MOTION b� Schmedel�e, seconded by Zeglen, that the Plarining Commission recommend to Counc.il approval of the praposed Preliminary P1a�, P.S. #71-04, Burling�on Northern Industria� Park P1at No. 1- Fridley by Buxl�ngton Northern, Inc. bejng a replat af the East 333 feet of I.ots 3, 4, 6, 7 and 8, except the South 200 feet of Lot 6, and East 333 feet of Lot 2 lying Norther�y of ,T��`694, Aud3tor'S Subdivision No. 78 subjecf to Protect.ive Covenants and Easemex�ts of reeord.

' � �� L� ' � 0 OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER FRIDLEY, MINNESOTA January 7, 1972 MEMO T0: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL SUBJECT: SITE STUDY AND MARKET ANALSIS OF SKYWOOD MUNICIPAL LIQUOR STORE � , This item was continued from the meeting of December 20, 1971. It had been requested by some members of the Council that we get a pro€it and loss statement for each liquor store prior to this meeting. This is impossible because the accounts are still open and such a statement cannot be physically � prepared until sometime in February. At the present time the Finance Director is working on the gross sales and c�stomer counts for 197I, and that will be ready to hand out to the Council Monday evening. Enclosed � also is the ir�formation that I had previously distributed to you concerning liquor store customers and stores which have left Skywood since August,_1965. As you may know, the Piggly Wiggly Market recently closed at Skywood. ' � � �J � � � �-. �J ' In line with the Council's desire to increase the advertising budget at Skywood, there were three quarter-page ads run in the Fridley Sun at a cost of $I44 each. In addition, there was a full page ad which benefitted all four liquor stores at a cost of $250. The total amount spent on adver- tising for the Skywood Liquor Store during the recent holiday season was $495. As I indicated to you at the last Council Meeting, it is anticipated that between $50,000 and $70,000 (depending upon the number of the on-sale liquor licenses issued in 1972) will noi be available to transfer from the Liquor Fund Account to the General Fund as a result of selling the municipal on-sale lounges this past year. I, therefore, believe it is critical that the Council consider studying procedures to achieve maximum profitability from all liquor stores. I recommend that the Council consider hiring Mr. John Cummings to perform this study as outlined in my memo of December 17, 1971 to you. GKD/ms Very respectfully, �-�.� ��-� Gerald R.

The Council indicated at that time that they desired the staff to obtain the services of a consultant to study the marketing problems at the store and to make some firm recommendations on a course of action designed to icaprove the profitability of the Skywood Store. This past week the Liquor Store Manager, Finance Director and myself inter- �. viewed two consultants regardzng this study. We used as a basis of the discussion a letter (which is attached), which was sent out to each consultant, asking them to answer certain questions which we feel are critical in order to enable the , City Council to decide what is the best course of action regarding tk�e Skywood Store. The proposals of each consultant are attached for your review. The cost of the proposals for the work were: � Midwest Planning and Research, Inc. $4,800.00 John E. Cummings $2,100.00 ' After carefully interviewing both consultants, we feel that both are equally comp�tent to perform this study. Mr. Cummings lists as a field of special competence "selection of retail Iocations", and prior to starting his own business, � " was a director of corporate planning-research for the Dayton-Hudson Corporation and had responsibility for recommending sites for new stores and shopping centers. He also has had experience in tE►e public sector during his employment as a principal planner with the City of Minneapolis Planning Commission. We feel that Mr. Cummings � is entirely capable of performing this study and coming up with sound recommenda- tions on questions that I have posed in my letter. � � � � , � I would, therefore, recommend that you authorize the City Manager to contract for the services of John E. Cummings to perform market and site study on Skywood Municipal Liquor Store for an amount not to exceed $2,100. The funds for this study appropriately would come out of the liquor fund account. It is anticipated that the study will take approximately five weeks and the results would be avail- able to the City Council sometime in February 1972. Part of the consultants job would be to present the report to the City Council and explain his conclusions and recommendations. F � Concur in the above recommendation ��t,�..�.�...

At the gresent time the City operates four cnunicipal liquor stores, as indicated • on the enclosed map. We are experiencing difficulty in sales at Store No. 1 in the�Skywood Shopping Mall, which is located south of I. 694 and east o£ T.H.��65. Enclosed for your information are some fig�res for this particular store since it was opened, and also customer counts for aIl of our liquor stores. As you can see, Store No. 1, during the period January 1, 1971 to November 20, I971, had Zess than half the number of customers walk iato the store as the next lowest store. _. _� � The questions that we would like to have a consultant answer for us are as follows: 1. Should we reduce our number of liquor store operations to three and discontinue the Skywood store? _ 2. Should we seek a new location for the Skycaood store in order to increase the profitability of the store? 3. If a new location is sou�ht, �ahere�aould be the best possible available location within the City of Fridley, and reasons for this recommendation? 4. What is the second best location within the City of Fridley and reasons? 5. Should we continue the Skywood store, and if so, steps we should take to have it reach an acceptable degree of profitability? 6. WE�y does tE�e Skywood store have lo�a profitability? ��i . • Mr. John E. Cummings -2- ��j ' December 13, 1971 The City of Fridley has done some preliminary work on site analysis which could be made available to you. In addition we have traffic counts as far as automobiles using certain streets, and this data, if useful, could be made available. In your reeommendations as to site loca.tion, I would feel that only sites that could be readily obtained through purchase or lease would be considered. Addi- tional 1970 census data is available. I would ask then that the following be included in your proposal; I. Time required to complete the study. 2. Tt�e total cost of study including one or two meetings to discuss the analysxs with the City Council, if required, We would require about 10 copies of the completed study document. 3. Your method of proceeding on the study. 4. What staff assistance would be required from the City to support� the study. I would appreciate receiuing your proposal as soon as possi,ble as we would Iike to start on a site Iocation study in early 1972. I hope this information is sufficient for you to submit a proposal.

Fridley, Minnesota 55421 � ' f1 �� , Dear Mr. Davis; Attached hereto is our proposal for a study of Fridley's municipal liquor operation for the specific purpose of deterrnining the future of Store No. 1 at Skywood Mall. It has been a pleasure to prepare this material and we look forward to an early beginning on the pro,�ci itself. I �� Note that the study is directed to your particular need: a firm recommenda- tion regarding the Skywood store based on thorough and competent market analysis. The questions in your letter of 13 December were unusually help- ful in this regard; they have allowed us to trim out much of the background material usually included in a proposal for setting the stage and defining the prablem. Your letter also offers the use of material in the City's possession, which has allowed us to reduce the time and cost budget for the study sub- stantially. � We have assumed a nzid-January starting date, but are prepared to begin sooner should you wish. Your acceptance can be indicated by signing and returning a copy of this letter. � Best wishes for the Holiday season and the prospect of a beneficial association in the New Year ! � Sincerely, � ` ,.�., �+ ,� . � �r;.�� John E. Cumm'fig � Enclosure s • JEC:dai � ' Accepted; By Date r � � 0 PROPOSA L PROJECT Fridley Municipal Liquor Stores OBJECTIVE To achieve a store pattern that will maximize overall profits from the municipal liquor operation. BACKGROUND The problem is outlined in a letter from Gerald R. Davis, City Manager, dated December 13, 1971. ' The principal difficulty is a declining prafit margin in one of four stores operated by the City (Skywood Mall). This has raised the question, "Would the overall situation be improved by closing or relocating this unit? " The proposed study is designed to answer this question, plus six others in- cluded in Manager Davis' letter. The latter will be taken up in reverse order, starting with an investigation of why Skywood has low profitability and winding up with a recommendation for termination or relocation based on the overall profitability of �he system. WORK PROGRAM We intend to conduct this investigation using a format that has proved itself in other store location studies. Work will progress as follows: I. Compile information on the recent history of; A, growth of the adult population in sou�hern Anoka, eastern Hennepin and northwestern Ramsey Counties, B. the commercial development of this region, C. travel patterns in the area, �I i '� , `�`� -z - D. liquor store sales-- I. in Fridley's municipal stores, 2. in competing stores. II. Gather information on future developments: A. _, B. that have already been announced, that appear likely based on a knowledge of the urban economy of the Twin Cities. �8 III. Review operation of Skywood Store relative to its competition (e.g. service level, priciag, hours, appearar�ce) to determine the possibility of increasing profit through upgrading rather than relocation. IV. Calculate: __ ... , A. total liquor sales in the region in 1975-1980, B. the share of market by store, - C. changes in market shares that will result from-- 1. closing the Skywood store, � 2. �continued operation of Skywood, 3. relocation of Store No. 1 to two or three alternative sites, D. to�al sales of the Fridley stores under each of the preceding conditions, E. profit of the stores in each case. V. Other considerations. , Closing or relocation of the Skywood store will undoubtedly affect other activities; for example, the sales of the storesremaining in , the Skywood Mall. Comments regarding these effects will be included. TIME AND COST BUDGET ' � i The study outlined above will require five weeks for full execution and re- i� porting. This includes the time required for study design, gathering and verification of data, analysis, drafting of the text and document preparation. : . � ; �J � 0 ' , I� � � � � � ' I� � -3- ,.! � �9 Assuming authorization to proceed is received by 15 January 1972, the final report will be.delivered on or before 25 February 1972. If authoriza- tion is delayed beyond 15 January the delivery date may have to be adjusted to accommodate other work in process. The City of Fridley will be billed only for the actual costs of conducting and reporting the study, but not to exceed $ 2,100. Z'hese costs include personnel time, supplies, services, travel and preparation of forty copies of the final report. Thus if the time required to produce the analyses requires fewer hours than planned or incidental expenses can be reduced, the client will be billed for only the actual time and charges. This tota.l cost includes one progress report to the City Council {if desired), presentation of the final report and one follow-up meeting. This budget also assumes the cooperation of City officers in furnishing information on store operations, legal restrictions or requirements, site availability, etc. that is readily available to them. REPORT The final report will comprise approximately 13 pages of text supple= mented by tables and maps. The text will contain a summary of our findings, the conclusions we draw from th�n and a specific r�commendation regarding the future operation of Store No. 1. It will contain direct answers to the questions posed in the letter of 13 December cited above. The report will be a plastic-bound, printed document, addressed tothe Fridley City Council, but written with the need of the general public in mind as well. 15 December 1971 ; 1 'ohn e. cummin s �� - 1 g , CI � ' n � ' �! � � ' 1420 West Minnehaha Parkway � Minneapolis, Minnesota 55409 � 612-861-3341 Fields of Speciat Competence Financial Analysis for Property Development Selection of Retail Locations Housing Market Studies New Venture Analysis Corporate Planning Experience Highlights John E.

I would like to touch upon a number of points that should be considered in the development of a public relations program. A. Purpose; The development of a better understanding of proposed or enacted policies between the Citizens of Fridley and the Council and/or Administration. At the present time most of the information reported to the pubZic about Fridley is done through the Sun Newspaper. The Fridley Sun has approximately 3600 subscribers, which is 40% of the more than 8,000 housing units wit[�in Fridley. The assumption, therefore, must be made that a number of Citizens of the community are not receiving news of their local government. In addition to the newspaper, a general information report in the form of a community calendar/report for 1972 was sent out this month. The problem now is to devise a means by which information that develops throughout the year can be transmitted to the Citizens. B. Possible Content of a Newsletter: A community newsletter could be utilized to cover the following broad areas; 1. Updated reports of City services. 2. A news type,summary of new and older enacted ordinances. 3. A discussion of a proposed policy or ordinance, and invite comments either at a public hearing or perhaps an advisory survey. 4. Reminder type notices; dog licenses, property taxes, etc. 5. Community events and highlights. 6.

Frequency of Newsletter; Most Cities which have a program of this nature, put out quarterly newsletter and/or an annual community report. A quarterly report is probably preferable because this will allow a greater degree of choice oi material 3� ' . ' , � ' ' , ' � ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL PU&LIC RELATIONS REP�ORTS , PAGE 2 by the lack of quantity. Also, the cost would probably become excessive in relation to the benefit received by a monthly newsletter. The other point is "impact" which relates to frequency. A well done quarterly newsletter may be preferable to a more hastily done monthly newsletter. Care has to be taken that the material and layout of the newsletter is done in good style to compete effectively with all the written material people reeeive. Tf a quarterly schedule of newsletter preparation and issuance was followed, this would not preclude sending out special mailings to cover a subject of significant and wide-spread interest for which delay to the next quarterly mailing would not be advisable. D. Cost Estimates for Pre aration; Preparation of a newsletter could either be done by a professional public relations firm or done "in house". Services involved would include news gathering, copywriting, editing, photography, design, artwork, layout, type setting, paper purchase, printing, and delivery. Certain of these costs are direct including printing and mailing costs. The costs are broken down as follows; One Newsletter Quarterly (1 Year) Monthly (1 Year) Direet Costs $ 950.00 3,800.00 11, 400�. 00 Staff Time Preparation $ 500.00 2,000.04 6,000.00 Total Cost $ 1,450.00 5,380.00 18,400.00 � The cost of a private public relations firm doing this would be approximately the same as City, except the total cost would have to be appropriated. The mailing costs�may be cut down by $800 if the quarterly reports could be coordinated to go out with the beach stickers sent out by the Parks Department in June, or a mailing that the Fire Department makes in October in connection with Fire Prevention Week. The other point regarding costs is that even though a public relations firm pre- pared the newsletter, it would have to be checked, edited and verified by City staff members regarding the accuracy of the material. E. Sample Newsletters; A number of newsletters from various communities and School District ��14 are enclosed with your Agenda material for your review. F. Recommendations: 1. If the City Council desires a monthly newsletter along the lines out- lined, it should be on a quarterly basis and prepared "in house". 2. The newsletter should not be utilized as�a partisan political communi- cation vehicle. The City Administration is committed to serving all of the Council and could not be put in Che position of communicating the stories or positions that the CounciT was split on. 3. The Administrative'Assistant (when hired) could be assigned the job of preparing such a newsletter. � I ' �.., _ . , -...�, � � �. . t�� ' MAYOR AND CITY.COUNCIL PUBLIG RELATIONS REPORTS I _ PAGE 3 4. If the Council decides on a quarterly newsletter prepared in house, it should budget $4500 from unappropriated reserve to cover the cost plus contingency. If Council decides upon a monthly newsletter, it should appropriate $13,000 to cover the direct costs plus contin- gency. This item was not budgeted for in the 1972 budget.

DEVELOP�IENT OPTIONS ranging from maintaining an imdisturbed wildlife preserve to construction oi a major lake � area are being studiecl for 1VIud La.ke. An originat concept calling for creation of a lalce that woiild serve as the basis far a recreatioreaE park is currently being re-evatuated with an eye toward preserving the Mnd Lake area in its natural state. Three alternatives are available under �the new concept: 1. Siinply preserve the land. 2. Preserve and maintain the area by protecting it with fencing and super• vision. 3. Preserve, maintain and interpret the area through the developinent of observation paths and centers. About 200 acres have been acquired west of Olinger, east of Gleason, on both sides oi the Crosstown. A shidy being financed jointly by the Village, Ed"u�a garden clubs, Nine Mile Creek Watershed District and Hennepin Goiu►ty will determine what form of water storage and recharge area is necessary for maintenance of Nine bTile Creek I � and whieh oi the alternatives for development of the 1VTud Lake Area will best fulfi�l the demand. � Council Creates New Environment Cort�mission � � � � � A new Envii•onmental Quality Com- mission was ct•eated by the Village Council in December. The 11-member Commission will ad- vise the Council, village staff, Planning Commission and Park Board on all matters relating to maintaining and improving quality of the environment in the village. The Commission was created because of "the profound influences of popula- tion growth, urbanization, industrial ex- pznsion, resoui•ce exploitation, and new and expanding technology, and recog- nizing fiirther the ci•itical importance of maintaining and improving the environ- mental quality of Edina to the overall welfac•e of the citizens . . ."

Edina Police, in cooperation with the Greater Edina Chamber of Commerce and Edina Crime Prevention Fund, are atternpting to enlist every household and business in the village in Operation Indentification. Under the pragram each household is assigned an identification number and given an engraving machine to use for two days for marking valuables. Com- plete records of all identified property is maintained by pol4ce in confidential flles. In addition to visible markings etched on valuables with the engravers, Edina police are experimenting with perma- nent, invisible ink markings that would be stamped on property along with the engravings. The invisible markings can be detected only through the use of spe- cial lighting equipment that is available only to police departments. Decals denoting participation in Oper- ation Identification are displayed on every door of a house or business after valuables have been coded. The program attacks burglary in sev- eral ways: would-be burglars are dis- couraged by discovery of program par- ticipation, police can make positive identification of stolen property imme- diately and detain suspected thieves, and stolen property is much more dif- ficult to dispose of once it has been marked, Operation Identification was origi- nated in Monterey Park, Calif. where dur- ing an eight-year study six burglaries occurred at the 4,000 participating households while 1,800 break-ins were reported at the 7,000 non-participating households. Aside from deterring crime, Operation Identification is providing Edina police with an opportunity to establish a strong community relations program through the door•to-door contact seg- ment of the plan. Each police officer is assigned the task of contacting 24 households per month in his patrol zone. "It is far easier to issue an engraver than it is to write a burglary or theft report," states Wayne Bennett, director of pub2ic safety. "It is much easier to explain Operation Identification than to try to explain why we cannot catch a burglar." �� E/�EE'iGFi�l':��$ P ��C�-�1�� 92�-2233 (Do not use this number for any o�her type of call) � � �.iY r �, .. �"� . .. � �� :��, +` � � � � � � ; r�a �. �� ;� T ,� � _ _ � - �_� . _.. . ..' �� Edina Crime Prevention Fund "�'Vliat can I do about crime?" Edina residents discovered a sound reaponse to this seemingly hopeless question during 1971 ... the Edina Crime Prevention and Criminal Appr•ehension Fund, Inc. Scores of individuals and community service groups responded during the year to the call foi• financial support of the Edina Crime Prevention Fund. Mon- ey from the fund is being used to sup- port special crime prevention efforts. A basic element in the new program is a 24-hour crime prevention answering service. The special teiephone equipment used in the service was purchased with Crime Fund monies. Anyone with infor- mation concerning any crime may cal] 926-1246 to report it and may remain anonymous. Cash rewards for all information that leads to arrest of persons involved in Edina crimes is paid to the informants with money from the Crime Fund. Since the program was inaugurated last spring 67 Edina crimes have been solved that could not have been con- cluded without information received through the Crime Fund cash reward program, according to Wayne Bennett, direcfor of pubIic safety. Reward payments can be arranged to insure anonymity through the use of six-digit identification numbers. Anyone interested in additional infor- mation on the program, wishing to make a contribution, or desiring to pass on in- formation on a crime may contact the Edina Crime Prevention Committee either by calling 926-1246 or by writing Box 35231, 5108 West 74th Street, Edina 55435. , 3� Metropolitanism Raises Sewer Service Rates The cost of providing needed sani- ta.ry sewer collection and disposal fa- cilities for the metropolitan area will be reflected in considerably higher sewer service bills for Edina properties starting January 1, 1972. The Metro- politan Sewer Board's allocation of Edina's 1972 share as $368,457, com- pared with $107,839 for 1971, forced the Village Council to increase rates. Single family homes will be charged $11 quarterly, rather than the previous $2.75 or $3.30 depending on water usage. Bills paid within 15 days after the billing date will receive $1 discount. Apartments with five or more units, and commercial and industrial build- ings will also pay higher rates. Record Growth In New Building Building construction resurged to a near record level during 1971 after fali- ing off drastically in 1970. Construction in Edina climbed stead- ily until it reached a record high of $36,220,287 in 1969. Then in 1970 building permits fell to only $21,821,204. By December 1, 1971 building permits issued during the year had already passed the $26 million mark. Coupled with another $9 million anticipated dur- ing December, 1971 construction was ex- pected to tota] nearly $36 million. The increase in 1972 was spread across all construction areas with exceptional gains in residential construction. Singie family home and apartment construc- tion during 1971 added an estimated 1,000 living units to the village. Federal Census figures revealed that on April 1, 1970, Edina had 2,343 mulii- ple dwelling units and 10,958 single family homes. Permits were issued in 1970 and 1971 for 810 units in 10 de- velopments and 204 single family dwellings. �icycl� Scaf��y E�r�� Yiela9s A�eident Dectine Strong emphasis on bicycle safety programs is credited with another good cycling record in 1971. Five bicycle accider.ts resulting in five injuries during the year marks the best safety i•ecord in nearly a decade. The annual bicycle safety program conducted by the Edina Police Depsrtme;�t included presentation of movies to an estimated 7,000 students coupled with school visits by police ofticers, distribution of handout materials, and special pro- grams. Special events found written safety tests being given to students 9n grades t}iree to six, and bicycle inspection and riding skill tests for young bicycle owners. In addition to safety buttons and reflector tape that was given to participating students by Edina Police, numei•ous prizes were awarded. Prizes were donated by civic minded merchants.

',g :� Edina residents will pay less prop- erty taxes in 1972, but will pay higher state and federal income taxes, higher wheelage taxes, a higher sales tax, and, if they purchase cigarettes, beer, and liquor, higher taxes on those items. The total effect will vary depending up- on individual circumstances, but, in general, there will be littte, if any, decrease in total taxes paid. The accompanying schedule attempts to calculate total taxes paid by a mar- ried couple with two dependent chil- dren who own a$48,000 home and have an adjusted gross income of $24,000. Because of the State Legislature's long delay in passing a tax bill and the confusion which has resulted in its application, final property tax rates wiIl not be available until after January 1. On December 12, the Edina School Board took action which should result in a 1972 tax rate of 145.37, a 6.1% re- duction from 1971.

The ardinnnce allows flexibility on the part of the developer whils increasing village control. The bold appronch pictured contains approximately 1he same number of units per acre at single family residential zones, but allows the residents much greater use and appreciation of the topography, vegetation, and Nine Mile Creek, which partially encompazses the project. Tho o�enness ollowed by planned residential developments is the re'sult of clustering fhe housing and the reduction of k..ack topped areas. 7his development i: jusf east of County HiBhway 18, and north of the � Crossto'wn Highway. from the original levy. This should re- sult in a mill rate of 20.98 for 1972, compared with 23.22 for 1971, and 23.05 originally levied for 1972. Future tax effects on Edina property owners of the Legislature's passage of a so-called "fiscal disparity" bill will nat be known for another year. This 1aw, the "Weaver act", will take 40% of all new industrial and commercial assessed valuation after January 2, 1971 occurring in Edina and other de- veloping areas and by a complicated formula distribute it to metropolitan municipalities whose tax base and growth is deemed to be insufIicient. New Brian Wippermann Memorial Gun Range Fills Youth, Aduit I+deeds Young people and adults, in addition to Edina police officers, are making good use of the new Brian Wippermann Memorial Gun Range. The $40,000 facility located in Braemar Park boasts a five-position indoor range for pistol and small bore rifle practice and 26 positions at the outdaor range. Construction of the modern range was made possible through the Brian Wip- permann Memorial Foundation, Edina Optimists and the Village. During the past year 1,425 young peo- ple were certified through the small arms safety program conducted at the gun range. In addition to gun safety and learn-to-shoot programs, the range is open to the public from 6 to 10 p.m. Monday, Wednesday and Friday and 9 a.m. to noon Saturday. Zoning Decisions Delayed To A11ow Citizen In-Put Acceding to citizen requests, the Edina Planning Commission and Village Council in the latter part of 1971 de- ferred final action on several requests for multiple-unit zoning. Among the projects are a proposed 12 story 171 unit apartment at 66th Street and France Avenue, and four projects in Western Edina involving 450 units. After final appraval was granted to two projects with 314 units on Cahill Road south of 70th Street, requests were made to review the full impli- cation of the previously adopted Plest- ern and Southwestern area develop- ment plans. Citizens are now organizing the Edina Homeowners' Coalition as a federation of neighborhood assceia- tions to provide more citizen involve- meet in Edina's zoning and planning. The Planning Commission meets on the 1st Wednesday of each month at 7:30 p.m. at the Village Hall, and every effort is made by the Village to notify immediately affected residents of pro• posed zoning changes prior to final action being taken. 42 �" � � � � l � �, � 1 � � !I � � � � � � � Expanded Inspection Effor� �4dopted for Fie�e Prever��ion Leaning heavily on the "Ounce of pre- vention ..." theory Edina fire officials have stepped up their fire pc•evention program. ' Five men have been specifically as- signed to fire inspection duties. F.outine inspections are conducted during the day and in the evenings inspectois are checking fire lanes, places of assembly, and special areas such as Southdale Center. One inspector is specializing in an education program that includes lec- tures, tours and a poster contest in co- operation with village schools. Another phase of the program is In-Service Com- pany Fire Inspection wherein a fire crew inspects business and apartment build- ings. During the inspections the crews also familiarize themselves with the buildings and prepare drawings show- ing critical information which are then entered into a fire plan boo'_{ that is car- ried to all fires. In order to insure continuing aware- ness of building conditions, the Hre de- partment now also reviews all building plans for construction and remodeling that are submitted to the Building De- pac•tment. Fire inspectors team with building inspectors on the framing ancl final inspections of all buildings. f�uman Rights Commission Works with Youth, I�ousing Education, youth involvement, hous- ing and employment occupied the Hu- man Rights Commission in 1971. The Commission aided the initiation of "A Better Chance" program to help dis- advantaged youth gain college edu- cations. A Human Affairs Conference was organized at the High Schoot. Cooperating with the Edina Jaycees, the Commission is participating in a housing institute January 12 at the Radisson South. A follow-up to "Color Me Mankind" week held in 1970 is planned. A series of discussions with Edina's police is proposed. Two complaints of possible discrimi- nation were investigated and inform- ally considered. 0 Watch Hcekey at Braemar Arena; Call 94I•1322 for Schediilc ;. � -�.� �.

Libreary Sold; County to �vild Regionat Center Late in 1971, the Village ceased being a landlord for the Hennepin County Library System, selling the library building adjacent to the Village Hall, to the County for $525,000. Edina re- tained title to the sculpture and origi- nal paintings which had been purchased by donations from residents and com- munity groups to the Edina Library Fund. The action was caused by the Coun- ty's decision to own all library facili- ties, rather than to have the munici- palities build and lease back. The County will also �ay the rent on the small Morningside branch. The County started construction in December of the South Area Regionat Library at 70th Street between Xerxes and York Avenues. Target date for completion of the 59,000 square foot building is summer, 1973. The Village was granted the right to sell the old library property at Fiftieth Street and Library Lane by a District Court decision December 1, 1971. This was used for library purposes from 1955 until 1968 when the new building was opened next to the Village Hall. If the decision is not appealed, the Village Council will consider its origi- U Auto Licenses On Sale At Village I€�11 C7 Snowmobiles Allowod Only in Braemar Park, Exeept on the Golf Coiurse EDI%!A VILLACE �OU��CIL �E01 lidesi� Fi�rfie#h Str�et o 927-�iE61 o Cdina 55424 Coimcil 1Vieets First and Third biond�ys at 7 p. m.

The proceeds must be used for park purposes. It is currently pro- posed that an estate-like property of nearly three acres on 44th Street be- tween Grimes and Wooddale be pur- chased. About one-half an acre will be sold from the old library site. The resolution •of the former library property problem will allow imple- mentation of the Village's plan to im- prove trafTic flow and parking in the 50th and France business area. Most of the work has already been completed in the south half, with the construction of the parking ramp and the new road from 50th and Halifax to 51st and France. Several signiflcant new private projects have already been completed because of the over-all planning. �ighway 100 Times Set �oe� Ed ina Wor� State Highway Department construc- tion on the first of four phases of work on Highway 100 in Edina is underway. The Willson Road to north village limit segment is slated for completion in Au- gust 1972.The $8 million project includes three bridges. Pedestrian overpssses at South View Lane (Edina High School) and Windsor Avenue also are included in the current �vork. The remaining construction phases: • ?7th Street' Interchange, construc- tion starts April 1972. • Willson Road to Va11ey View Lane, bid opening June 1972. • Valley View to 77th Street, bid open- ing during 1973. When completed through Edina, High- way 100 will provide three lanes in each direction and it•ontage roads. Construction of the costly ?7th Street interchange was moved up by the state when the village borrowed $2.5 million from future state gasoline tax grants and advanced it to the state as a tem- porary loan for construction. 43 , �,� _::; � ;� � �� ,�� ► � � "`� � �'>. �,., , .>�� ;-. „ I Non-Profit Organization U.

The total levy for scliool support in 1971 was 273.11 mills. For 1972 that same levy has been set at 16027, a reduction of 112.84 or 41.3 percent.

LOC� � �f aXeS good number of years, Fridley resi- dents living in District 14, with a levy of 160.27, will be enjoying the lowest mili levy for school support. The corresponding levy for District 11 will be 173.68, for District 13, 162.66 and for District 16, 172.87. According to a school district mill levy story in the Dec. 16th issue of the Minneapolis Star, District 14 will have the lowest mill rate in Anoka County and the highest percentage reduction in taxes in the seven coun- ty metropolitan area. Residents who � read the story and did their own - computations from the figures sup- plied likely caught the error in the Star's arithmetic where the percent- age of reduction was listed as 39 per- cent rather than a correct 41.3 per- cent, making the reduction the high- est among all school districts listQd. The shift to less schQOl support from local property tax and more from state tax sources is the result of the tax bill passed late in the extra session. However, District 14's ex- tra large reduction points out another provision of the new law — an at- tempt to equalize education support (Continued on page 4) PPS Conversion Nears Compie�io�' Mr. Jerry Seeman, District 14 TTE5 coordinator, has reported that local staff inembex�s are in the process of converting the present district pay- roll and personnel systems to a com- bined and expanded computer Pay- roll-Personnel System (PPS) with TIES.

On Monday and Tuesday, March 6 and 7 frvm 7 to 8 p. m., anyone may register for a program and district residency is not required.

SN � � � �4, g � � � �- � 6 f e `,t�� During the fall manths of the present school year, the district's Curriculum Council has been engaged in identifying those areas of the schooi's curriculum which should be studied for revision and needed im- provement. One of the first areas to come to the Councii's attention was health education. For the past couple of years national study groups in health education have been giving their at- tention to possible needed kinds of changes. Local staff inembers have also expressed some doubt about the adequacy of the traditional healtn curriculum. District 14 presentiy has staff inembers with specialized train- ing in heaith education to provide leadership in tne curriculum study. National publishers have been pro- ducing some new and exciting in- structional materials for health edu- cation. Because of all these things, the Council appointed a committee to study District 14's health education curriculum for possible improvement. A second area that has received the curriculum study nod from the Curriculum Council is elementary language arts. In this instance the study wili actually be a continuation of a kindergarten to grade t�velve study in language arts that was be- gun two or three years ago. At its December meeting the Council ap- pointed an investigating team com- posed of the coordinator of elemen- mentary education, the curriculum s��a� coordinator, two elementary princi- pals, and three elementary teachers to make a preliminary study of the language arts in the elementary grades and to return a report to the Council with a recommended course of action. A third area that has concerned the members of the Council has been elementary social studies — more particularly inservice training for the new social studies program that was adopted a year ago. In an effort to be of help in this area, the Council has made arrange- ments for an inservice education workshop for elementary teachers who are involved in teaching the Brandwein social studies program published by Harcourt Brace. The workshop will be held at the Hayes school and will be conducted by per- sonnel from the ERDC's Metropoli- tan Area Social Studies Service Cen- ter. LOCAL MEN ON COMMITTEES Dr. John K.

When the conversion is completed, a par�llel system will run for two months after which the new system will be totally operative with new data being added and updating pro- cedures accomplished by an on line operation via the local CRT to the computer data bank located at the TIES heaaquarters in Roseville. Fridley has also been hosting a TIES spansored computer workshop for ieachers and administrators. This workshop, which is offered as a part of the TIES service at no extra cost to the school district or staff inem- ber, has an enrollment of 35 mem- bers with 18 ciass members being Fridley elementary teachers and principals, and junior and senior high school classroom instructors. The content of the workshop is de- signed to aid teachers in utilizing the computer in the classroom and in- cIudes such aspects of computer tech- nology as introduction to the com-• puter, introduction to BASIC — a computer language, system com- mands, drill and practice, computer application to juninr high mathe- matics, and simulations and simula- tion games. Seeman noted that the next phase of district utilization of TIES will be the introduction during the coming year of a budget accounting system. � '�- �" :�n a1' �'� ,�� : �� •• f,�:. ` i�; ,f ` The editorial staffs of most high school newspapers oniy dream of the day when their paper will be award- ed an illusive "All American" rating by the National Scholastic Press As- sociation, yet such a dream has come true for the staff of Fridley Senior High School's newspaper, Tiger Tales. Mr. Earl Trude, senior high school English teacYier and faculty advisor to the newspaper, was recently noti- fied that last year's Tiger Tales, which tvas under the leadership of editor Debbie DeBoer, received the Ail American rating which is re- ceived by less than ten percent of all papers submitted. At the end of each year, the issues published during that year are sub- mitted to the Scholastic Press Asso- ciation for professional evaluation. In separate categories such as cover- age and content, writing and editing, editorial leadership, photography, and physical appearance, the papers are rated according to an ideal standard which has an established number value. Dependin� upon the total number of points accumulated, a paper may receive a th.ird, second, or first class award. A very few papers receiving first class awaras are judged to be especially worthy, receive marks �f distinction, and are given the All American Award. The Tiger Tales of last year was recipient of such an honor. The current newspaper editor is Gail Mondloh, who together with her staff once again plans to participate in the National Scholastic Press As- sociation, a rating organization de- veloped by the University of Min- nesota's journalism department to improve the quality of high school newsp<.pers. �� 1 L_J ' ' [-J , , LJ ' LJ � ' , , � ' , � � PageFour DISTRICT BULLETIN December 1971 TAXES (Continued from page 1) and spending. In the past District 14 residents have made a tremendous •effort to support education in spite of a tax base of low valuation, and the school board, superintendent and administrators have efficiently man- aged the school operations so that quality education was affered at a very low per pupil cost. In addition to increasing the basic state foundation aid, the education portion of the tax bill increased ap- propriation for transportation, voca- tional and handicapped education. Key features of the tax bill reflect the current drive for accountability on the part of schools. Chief among these is the provisions for levy limita- tions which, because of the strict terms it outlines for local levies, transfers the levying power away from local districts to the legislature. School officials in District 14 see stable school mill levies for the fu- ture. It is thought that slight varia- tions may occur from year to year as the result of board of education de- cisions, but it is anticipated that the school levy for 1973-74 school year will be basically the same as that for 1972-73. PHILOSOPHY (Continued from page 1) The Philosophy Committee, chair- ed by Ron Christiansen, representa- tive of the Parkview PTA, is com- posed of sixteen members including parents representing the junior and senior high schools and the elemen- tary school PTA's, two students rep- resenting the student bodies at the secondary schools, two elementary and two secondary teachers, a repre- sentative from the Fridley Education Association, and the district curricu- lum coordinator. Following its next meeting the committee will put together a tenta- tive draft of a proposed philosophy statement for study by the district's professional staff. The committee will then develop a final version of the philosophy that will reflect any needed change and submit it to the Board of Education for approval. The committee's time table as outlined by the Board calls for all work to be completed by the Board meeting in May. Fridley residents who have ques- tions they would like answered or have suggestions to make can con- +act either Ron Christiansen at �60- ?153 or Tom Myhra at 560-6100, ext. 54. DISTRICT RESIDEHT aUESTIONNAIRE From time to time the Board of Education has asked District 14 residents to respond by questionnaire to items of business that the Board is considering. Below are three items on which the Board would like your opinion. Please complete the questionnaire, clip out and mail to: - Mr. Tom Myhra, Curriculum Coordinaior Independenf School Dis2rict No. 14 6000 Wesi Moore Lake Drive Fridley, Minnesota 55432 BUSING For the past couple of months the Board of Education has been considering bhe possibility of expanding the bus service system by transporting to school all children who live more than 3/a mile from school. The present walking limit is one mile and the cost of busing these students is reimbursed 80% by the state. It is estimated that the additional busing serviees would cost bhe district from $32,000 to $38,000 annually with none of the increased costs being reimbursed by state aids. Since the recent tax bill forbids local districts from levying additional taxes for such transportation costs, the additional needed monies would have to come at the expense of other operating programs or maintenance costs such as salaries, books, instructional materials, etc. Do you believe that the present walking limit .should be re- duced from one mile to 3/a mile? - Yes [] No ❑ FOOTBALL FIELD LIGHTS The Fridley Senior High School football field is unlighted. Most high schaols in the metropolitan area have lighted fields. Some resi- dents an� soine groups in District 14 have indicated they are in favor of installing football field lights in the immediate future. Other resi- dents have expressed opposition. The estimated cost would run from �50,000 to $70,000. The money to meet the cost could come frorn the present building and sites fund depending upon priorities as determinted by the Board of Education. Residents should uncler- stand that ihe building and sites fund is a separate fund apart from the maintenance fur�d and that monies from the building and sites fund cannot be spent for operational purposes, but must be used for building or site improvement. Do you feel that the Board of Education should authorize in- stallation of lights at the senior high school football field? Yes � Na ❑ SCHOOL CALENDAR Below are three suggested calendars for the 1972-73 school year. Each of these calendars meets the gizidelines of 180 student days and 185 teacher work days.

Continued from front page the west, and Welcome to the east, the 50-acre park site is virtually undevel- oped at this time. Two years ago, a glan for Jordan was drawn-up by Brauer and Associates, Inc., site planners, and has been inte- grated into the long-range plan for the City. Envisioned by the planners is a com- munity park and recreation hub for the City. Facilities in the Jordan area include a man-made lake (required to be used as a storm-water retention basin), play meadows, hiking trails, a sheltered pa- villion, and complete recreation facili- ties. LAWCON funds will enable purchase of 15 additional acres for the Jordan area and would finance some initial development. Another area that would benefit from LAWCON aid is the mid-section of Crystal - where funds would be used to create a three-acre neig}iborhood park in the vicinity of Soo Line Piace. The City has also chosen approxi- mately four acres for park purchase in north Crystal at 61 st and Florida, and expansion of the Bass Lake Road Park is also possible if LAWCON funds are granted. a yy '��. 4� 4.�' ��q 5 f �� dF S' �: Tt�.S 9•, �'�? •i`�1 �� !� ,��.� A park designed to serve the whole Crystal community - that's the ideal description of the Jordan area once it is developed, planners report. Many acres of t}te park site in south Crystal will probably be left in their natural state for wild life study and day camping. In winter months, those same open spaces could be used for sleddin� and tobogganing. Fifteen acres of the Jordan area are reserved for a man-made lake. A view of ttie lake may be seen from 32nd Avenue North. Right no�v, the lake is a retention pond for storm run-off, and part of the north arm of Bassett's Creek. Witti development, t}le lake will have aest4ietic and recreationat assets, plan- ners point out. Bays and wooded shores could pro- vide a scenic setting for canoeing. Other areas of the Jordan park will probably be designated for sports, pic- nics and community-wide events. . __ _ _ _ , . _ ; 53 ,.�.`. t • r+.j .. � .w'r� °"'S1 �.

With this in mind, the City started a three-year program in July to clear-up any inequities that might exist in current appraisals. With total re-appraisal, a property owner can be sure that his own property assessment has been equalized with other valuations in the City. The aim of the Crystal plan is appraisal accuracy - not higher assessments. The three-year job was authorized with tiie belief ifiat no taYpayer in Crystal should pay more than his fair share of city, school and county govern- mental costs. An appraiser was recently hired to assist tlle City assessor with ttie task. If the property owner is not at home during a visit from the apptaiscr, he witl receive a note from the appraiser asking for an appointment to inspect the inte- rior of the build�ng. The exierior will be mcasured and examined, but only an interior view can offer an accurate and equitable appraisal. Prop�rty owners will be asked to call the appraiser to set up a time for the visits.

Last spring, about 14 youths met with adult members of another City advisory committee to chart the Com- mission's format. Beginning this fall, the Youth Com- mission is expected to meet each month.

Introduced this summer, the yellow slips are used by Crystal employees to jot down general "hovsekeeping" prob- lems they may �nd anywhere in town — °chuck holes, excessive weeds, trees obstructing street signs, vacant and neglected homes, for example. An employee turns in his report, and once action has been taken, it is returned to that same person with con- firmation of what has been done. Staff response to this rtew program has been consistent with many slips turned in daily. Many say tl:ey're encouraged by the plan because they now consider them- selves an active part of problem solving. Because of this reporting method, the City hopes to clear. up many poten- tial proUletns before residents �ieed to report them. � r--� �ir� 1'o��t 6�umb��r� Money earned from the fire insur- ance surcharge can be credited to the Crystal Volunteer Fire Department if each property owner will be sure the 2 per cent surcharge is included when he renews or writes new fire insurance on his real estate or home.

PEDDLER PROTECTION Any peddler in the City of Crystal may not sell goods or services without a 'registration permit signed by the City Clerk. The permits require product identifi- cation and an assurance of fair business practices by the peddlers. Any resident witli questions regard- ing peddlers operating in the City should contact the Crystal Police Department (537-4571). FIREFIGHTERS NEEDED More than a dozen, charter members of the Crystal Volunteer Fire Depart- ment retired last winter. New men, ages 21 to 35, are needed to fill the void those retiring members left. Volunteers who can answer daytime fire calls are needed most in Crystal. Those who serve earn nominal pay for each fire call, and they receive full retirement benefits. Any Crystal man interested in fire department work is urged to contact any volunteer or to call the department, 537-8421. Aside from calls, each fireman takes part in regular drills and occasional refresher courses. BOULEVARD PARKING For safety's sake, boulevard parking is prohibited in Crystal. In areas of the City where there are no sidewalks, children must use the boulevards — or be forced to walk in the street, endangered hy traffic. The boulevard area is that parallel land strip running approximately 15 feet in (deep) from the roadway. It is illegal to park any vehicle there. IlVOPERABLE VEHICLES "Junk" cars pose a big problem for the City of Crystal. In a year's time, hundreds are report- ed by residents who see them parked for weeks or months in front and side yards. These inoperable vehicles stored on property for more than seven days are not allowed in Crysta�. The same ruling also applies to veliicles for sale or rent. Inoperable vehicles stored for an extended time can create unhealthy conditions '- they offer a refuge for rodents, tall grass and weeds gro�v around them, and junk storage can have a"ping pong" effect leading to more in the same neighborhood. Any resident who spots junk car storage in violation of ordinances should notify the Crystal Police Department, 537-457L HOUSE NUMBERS On an emergency call — when seconds may count — it is important for Crystal fire and policemen to easily spot house numbers. Residents are asked to check their house numbers to be certain they are clearly visible from the street (3—inch letters are recommended). � I _ SJ � ��'�f � � � � , ��-� - �f 'l '� �� ..\ � . . i�� ,�': ' � � '�+ � ��' � . `A.4 � . . . �-�� `,t � . �� ` � ��i �� :_� �r �i : _ ��r, �:� ( NEW SIREN A new, $4000 siren has been in- stalled at the North Fire Station in Crystal. Together, the City and the federal Civil Defense agency evenly split the expense. Residents will probably notice that the sound is unlike any siren heard in oiher communifies, and it is identical to the South Crystal Fire Station siren. The sirens are used for weather and fire alerts. If a tornado has been sighted, resi- dents will hear a five-minute, steady siren tone. The alert means tliat resi- dents must take shelter immediately. No sirens will be sounded for a tornado watch. The "watch" represents a chance of tornado development in a specified area during a given time period. A tornado watch is reported by the U. S. Weather Bureau on local radio and television stations.

DANA FREAR received tire Disiin- guished Service Award, and was named Minnetonka's Hono�ary City Historian. An award that "tops them all" was presented in August to Dana Frear, one of Minnetonka's oldest residents. The Distinguished Service Award was given by the Mayor and members of the Minnetonka City Council. It is pre- sented to persons in recognition of outstanding service to the community. Frear authored the History of Minne- tonka — a volume that took close to 40 years to compite. He later turned the history over to Councilwoman Betty Johnson for use hy the City of Minne- tonka Historical Society. The City Council has named Frear their "Honorary City Historian". "Many wonderful things have hap- pended to me in my life," Frear said recently, "but this tops them all." . . k _ I�' �$� �i'1� �1�5 � I 8Z �1 �O � � V�e cor�� Expansion of services to the commu- nity and improved employee morale are the two, chief goals of Minnetonka's experimental four-day week. Since July, City employees have workecl from 7 a.m. ta 5:30 p.m., four days a wQek, with the option to take either Friday or Monday off each week.

The assumption that people fit neatly into boxes is a myth — particu- larly when it comes to organization charts for management. That's the observation of City Mana- ger Heinrich who has proposed a "team" approach to City management and policy-making. Effective City organization should create a climate in which City staff may make proposals to the City Cauncil on major policy decisions, Heinrich reports. The team concept would essentially do away with the chain-of-command and hierarchy dividing one level of employees from another. The total approach to City manage- ment �vill mean a close working relation- ship between departments along with interdependence, as well. The City Manager would become a "team manager and coordinator" — while still performing the traditional functions of planning, organizing, staff- ing and directing day-to-day City opera- tion. Within the scheme of team manage- ment, the following departments have been proposed: administration, commu- nity ctevelopment, finance, legal ser- vices, public safety, public works, and recreation-parks. Administration would include the City manager's office plus the necessary record-keeping, voter registration, elec- tion duties; personnel and data process- ing responsibilities. Citizen involvement lies at the center of the proposed Community Develop- ment department. Existing citizen advi- sory boards would actively take part in planning, devetopment and siudy of projects with the City staff, rather than simply "reacting" to a proposal after it has been drafted. All financial matters would be fun- neled into the new department of finance where central authority, in a single department would insure effective controL -- 5�_ morning or on their way home from work at night to transact business. The new plan covers most City employees including the Police Depart- ment: But some exceptions are City inspectors, the City Attorney's office, the City Manager's office, and survey crews and construction inspectors in the Engineering Department. Minnetonka is believed to be the first municipality in the country to test the four-day week for a majo'rity of its employees.

Any resident in Minnetonka who wants to keep more than two dogs must have the approval of all his neighbors living within 2Q0 feet of the property, the City Council has ruled. A form containing neighbor siona- tures would mean that they do not object to the dogs, and a permit would be issued. If the permit is refused, a hearing before the City Council wi11 be set, and affected neighbors will be notified. Minnetonka has a new City staff member, Lowell Ballard, who acts as Animal Warden. Ballard is responsible for control of animals and enforcement of City ordinances related to animals. The V'Jarden patrols the City, pi�ks up dogs running at large; picks up injured, stray or dead animals and takes them to an animal hospital for care. Ba�lard also handles resident complaints; investigates facilities of those people who keep more than two dogs, and issues tickets to owners who violate City ordinances. . _ . r -_ , ; � i P��i� ��r�ic� �r�r��f�s POUCE PROGRAM IN SCHOOLS This fall, a police-school "liaison" pCogram is operating in the Hopkins School District.

Qureshi, City Engineer MEMO DATE: January 14, 1972 MEMO NUMBER: CM #72-01 RE: Report Regarding Water Mai.n Breaks on 62nd Way - West of East River Road In 1968 we had some water services frozen. The Public Works Department lowered four water services on 62nd Way because they were too high. This was done to eliminate any chance of prablems with the water services and to prevent damage to the new pavement on 62nd Way which was installed in 1969. , In December of 197I the watex main broke near Alden Way (see attached map). This was repaired immediate�y by the Public Works Department. Les Chesney indicated to me that , the water main was at the proper depth of over 7 feet and this break was an Act of God. � As I mentioned to the City Council, the water main break phenomenon is not peculiar to Fridley. Columbia Heights has an average of 15 water main breaks a.year, St. Louis Park over 25 breaks per year. Fridley is only averaging about 6 ' water main breaks per year. � The Public Works Department keeps the damaged area of ' pavement as best they can over the winter months and when the weather improves in the spring they go back and do a complete repair job to the pavement.

(REQUEST BY MC DONALDS CORP., 221 NORTH LA SALLE STREET, CHICAGO, ILLINOIS 60601.) ' � , i� �I u ' � ' u ' Mr. Terrance G. (Terry) Mauer of Kraus-Anderson of St. Paul, and Mr. Jim Kleinfelter of McDonald Corp. were present to present the request. Mr. Mauer said the exterior would be changed to match the other McDonald buiLdings in the Twin City Area. The exterior will be a combination of red face brick and wood. The building wi11 have an asphalt shingZe roof with light beam trim. Mr. Klinefelter said the seating would extend the length of the addition on both sides with the serving area all in front. There will be seating area for approximately 100 people. The addition would take away four parking spaces, leaving 61 existing parking spaces. The committee ques- tioned if parking might be a problem, Mr. Kleinfelter said in their Bloomington bui].ding they had seating for 104 geople and 72 parking spaces which was working out fine, Mr. To�co asked about the facilites for the disposal of trash. Mr. Klinefelter said they had a double chamber burner with a 15'x20' concealed dumpster. The seating area would be self-service and would be kept clean by the employees. Mr. Zeglen said they had been told there had been complaints on the upkeep of the fence on the rear of the property. Mr. Kleinfelter said they always repaired the fence the few times there had been any damage to it. The committee said they would like to have McDonald's install some type of guard rail along the fence so cars and snow would not cause any damage. The fence on the north side of the property is 7 feet high. They would like the first 30 feet af this fence trimmed down to 32 feet high. Mr, Klinefelter said the City had requested this fence and it was the adjacent businesses to the North who would like to have it trimmed. The committee felt that as McDonalds were requested by the City to install this fence they could ask the adjacent neighbors to the north to share the expense •� � � ' � ' Buii.ding Standards-Design Control Meeting of January 13, 1972 Page 2 of trimming down the fence and if they didn't agree, the fence could remain as is. • There is at present a vapor mercury light on the rear of the building for security lighting. So there would not be any complaints from the residential area on this light shining on their property, the committee asked if�during the remodeling when they were installing new lighting, this light could be replaced with a light that would shine down, so this complaint could be eliminated. Mr. Muhich said the plans show an outside ladder for access to the � mechanical equipment on top of the building but the code calls for an inside ladder, so the plans would have to be changed to conform to the code. ' ' i ' � ' ' MOTION by Tonca to recommend to the City Council, approval of the request - to remodel the exterior of the existing building and to construct an addition�of 14 ft, to each side for inside seating with the option of the owner to use an alternate plan and add 14 ft. to only one side of the building and have seating on one side only, with the.following stipulations: � 1. Install some type of guard rail along the fence on the rear of the property, 2. Check about trimming down the existing fence to 32 feet for _ 30 feet, along the north property line. 3. Install security lighting on addition and direct lighting away from residential areas. 4. Install an inside IaddeY� for access to roof top for mechan�cal equipment. Seconded by White. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, the motion carried unanimously. 2.

O ' � � � George Spevacek was present to present the request to remodel the exterior of the existing building. They will landscape and install poured 6"x12" concrete curbing around all blacktopping. They will install aluminum facing around the existing canopy and top of the building. Fiberglass brick will be screcved on over the existing porcelain with the bottom of the porcelain painted black, on the front of the building. The back and sides will have aluminum siding. The committee questioned the trash enclosure which is only three feet high. They asked to have the height raised to 6 or 7 feet and to provide screening as this was open to view from the service road. This area must be maintained or other requirements would be made so the City would not receive complaints. . 65 . s6 Building Standards-Design Control Meeting of January 13, 1972 Page 3---- Mr. Muhich said the owner should be informed he had to remove all signs from the right-of-way and keep all signs on his own property.
