The City Manager said that he had also submitted a cover letter which is a report coverinq the LOGIS program. The City Manager said one City participating in the program would be designated as L-he Pilot City, This would involve putting the computer system to work in the City Hall to do the payroll, and personnel processing. The C rty Manager explained the use of sharing the Cargil release lines. He said the Finance Director and himself would spend about a week in California at Optimum Systems and other cities that are presently operating a similar system or are converting to the Gemunis system. He said the purpose of this visit would 6e to 6ecome thoroughly familiar with the system and to gain an understanding of how management can use data processing to its fullest capability. He added, the cost of- the trip would be borne by LOGIS at no add rtional cost to the City. The City Manager said the LOGIS Executive Director, Mr. T. L. Willard, was present to answer any of the Council's questions. He said Mr. Willard had been working with the staff and had also prepared a report on the ,[�ilot City Project which had been submitted to the mem6ers of the Council in their agenda. Councilman Breider asked Mr. Willard if the City would be leasing the equipment� Mr. Willard said LOGIS would be leasing the equipment. He said a comparable ter- minal is being leased by IBM for $90 per month and $75 per month over a long term range. Mr. Willard said ii the steps laid out by the program are approved and are followed, the payroll of the C rty employees would come from the California compu- ter in July. He added, all by product reports will also be available from the computer. He listed some examples as sick leave, vacation time, and comp time. Mr. Willard said the second step would 6e to �nclude the general legal accounting in the program. He said this would automatically post the payroll to the general ledger, etc. Mr. Willard stated the third step in the program would be to use the computer for utility billing. After these programs are instituted, the Finance Director may go to the system and find out specific information. Mayor Liebl asked if the budget work would be able to he done with the computer? He asked if what is best for the community could be determined through the use of the computer? Mr. Willard said the budget and planning would be included in the system. He said there is a long list of line items and the pro��act participants are trying to determine the capability and possibilities of the program. � � � REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF APRIL 2, 1973 PAGE 4 � (3 {a � The City Manager said the tiraining committee is work mg on these as�ects of the program. He added, the City of Fridley is paying their alloted amount for partici- pation in the program along with nime other communities, He said $6,000 for the pro�ect has been assumed by LOGIS, the City pays one twelfth. He said the only factor would be the time spe��t by the employees and staff of the City, The City Manager said he would rather be the first to participate in the system thar� the last. Mr. Willard said the Fridley City Manager is the director of the tra�ning committee and it was his opinion that his participation in the pilot city program would enhance the knowledge of the entire system. Mayor Liebl asked the purpose of the Resolution in the agenda, The City Manager said it was for information purposes, it was the Resolution passed 6y the Council in May of 1972 indicating approval of Fridley's participation in the LOGIS program.

REPORT ON INVESTIGATION OF POSSIBLE SITES FOR STEVENSON SCHOOL WALKWAY BY COUNCIL- MAN NEE: G��uncilman Nee said he had spent many hours talking to the area property owners anc he had not been successful in o6taining consent from them for an easement for the walkway. He added, he is prepared to say it is not possible to obtain agreement. Mayor Liebl suggested inviting the people of the area to the next Regular Council Meeting, on April 16, 1973• He said he would recommend the walkway be constructed yet this year. He said he believed more money should be allocated for the pro�ect. He said he would rather negotiate �For the easement for the walkway than condemn the land for it. He said the recommendations from the School Board should be re- viewed. � Ji V REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF APRIL 2, 1973 PAGE 5 He said the people of the area were not given an adequate explanation of the pro- � �ect last year, they came home and found stakes rn their yards. He added, the City Manager is fairly certain the pro�ect could be implemented on the north side, as there are individuals who ihink it could be done. He said it may be that the City would have to condemn the land on the south side. He said in his judgment, the longer the City waits, the more it is �eopardizing the children who must travel along East River Road. He said the matter had been brought before the Coun- cil two years ago, and again last year when the pro�ect ran into some snags. Mayor Liebl suggested notifying all of the area property owners, giving the people enough buffer zone for privacy with fences or shrubs and try to get the walkway in the area this year. He said he had recently received four calls from mothers who were concerned a6out rheir children. The City Manager said he did not believe it was a matter of money as much as it is a matter of principle. He said th�y had two approvals, have offered security fenc rng, and still the people are not interested in the pro�ect. He said he be- lieved it would have to be condemned on the south if the City wants to adopi� the pro�ect. Mayor Liebl said he thought a better agreement could be worked out. He said the City should tell the people that their privacy would be respected. He said the people want a buffer so the children would not go into their yards. Councilman Nee said the area is very tight and there is not much area that could be used. The City Manager agreed saying, all four proposed routes are very � close. He said if the Council wants a document stating the response to the idea from the area people, he did not have one, but they are saying the children can use the sidewalk on the East River Road. MOTION by Councilman Nee to send a letter of notification to the people of the area that the four alternative proposals will be discussed the meeting of April 16, 1973, and asking them to be present. Seconded by Councilman Starwalt.

GEORGE SCHUMANN TO ERECT A FENCE BARRIER BEHIND 4330 AND 463$ 3RD STREET IN THE EASEMENT TO DETER MOTQR SCOOTERS: Councilman Nee said he had been in the back yards of the people the past weekend and w rthin fifteen to twenty minutes there were assaults by eight or ten motor cycles. He said there should be a degree of privacy in those persons back yards He said the problem involved is created by the unvacated alley He said it is a nw sance and also a hazard. He said there is a motor cye.le race track through the area. He said he did not know what could be done for a short range solution to the problem, but a long term solution would be to vacate the alley. He said ihe possible short term solutio� may be to allow the erection of a fence. Mayor Liebl said in order to vacate the alley, Lhe matter would have to go to a hearing. The acting City Attorney said the City could auihorize the �nstallation of a fence in the area for a short term solution. He said if some time in the future, the City would have to use the alley, the fence could be taken out. He said ihe process would be to eventually go through vacation procedures. Councilman Nee asked how long such a vacation would take. The City Attorney said a notice would have to be se�t out with sufficient time allowed. The City Engineer estimated the amount of time to be three months. The City Engineer called the Council's attention to the map pros�ided in the agenda � on page 4-B indicating there are some persons who do use the alley, and it would be impractical to vacate rt, The C rty Engineer suggested approving the con- struction of fencing which would be sub�ect to removal when the City needs the area for utility work. He also suggested the rnstallation of a��dead end" sign, stating, then the people would not go in there. � L 1 � Mrs. Schumann said she would like to see the fence constructed to deter the cyclists. She explained how the route taken is high at 47th and driven like a race irack to 46th. She said the neighbors of the areaare in accord and vaould like to have some- thin� done. She mentioned the fact that if the alley is chopped up they would not come barreling down like it is a race track. She said she has seen children eleven years old driving cycles with children of five on the handle 6ars. She said she could not imagine that their parents do not know they are doing this. She said two barriers would quiet the speeders.

Mertz, also from Northern States Power Company, Chairman of the North Division, and said he would be able to answer any questions the Council may have. Mr� Mertz adressed the Council saying Northern States Power Company has no ob�ec- tion of the formation of a metro rate authority. He said he believed it would be a good settlement and an effective rate regulation tool. He stressed that N,S.P. would not ob�ect to this at all. Mayor Liebl asked Mr. Mertz if he was implying a metro rate authority may 6e stricter and cost less than an authority on a state wide basis7 Mr. Mertz said the Mayor was partially correct in his questioning. Mr. Mertz said the Company is putting in services as fast as possible throughout the state, he added, it can be done faster within the metropol rtan area. He said the people would have some vote in the metro rate authority. Mayor Lie61 asked if 60% of the communities in the area would have to be involved to make the franchise binding and create a metro rate authority7 The City Flttorney said the City would have to �dopt the franchise. He said he presumed rt would be adopted by all of the communities that will be participating. And in accordance with the City of Fridley Charter, he added. He said it is not by 60% of the communities. It is those communities which have 60% of N.S,P, customers i� their area, Councilman Starwalt asked if the consultants are selected by the Steering Committee, � he used Mr. Bruce Nawrocki as an example of one of the members of the committee. Mr. Mertz said there has been $150,000 budgeted for use in 1973. Mr. Mertz said this money is used by the inetro rate administrative body as they see fit to use it. Cou�cilman Breider agreed with Mr. Mertz saying, he was on the board for the suburban rate authority for the Gas Company and they paid the cost. He said the committee had to ask the Company not to put so much money into the authority as they had enough funds. Councilman Starwalt said he did not believe this would be a� unreasonable situa- tion. Councilman Breider agreed. THE VOTE ON THE MOTION TO RECEIVE THE REPORT was a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Liebl declared the motion carried unanimously. The Finance Director said the action the Council should take would be to set a Public Hearing date if they want to proceed. Councilman Breider asked if this was correct. He asked if there was to be any ac- tion at the present time7 He questioned the method of awarding the franchise. The City Attorney said a certain amount of notice should be given before the Pub- � lic Hearing is held. He said this would take about two weeks. He suggested setting the Public Hearing for the second Monday in May or May 14, 1973• c�,�;i REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF APRIL 2, 1973 PAGE 8 � MOTIDN by Councilman Breider to set a public hearing on the matter oF Fridley's participation in the metro rate authority.

WITH COSTS FDR BLOCK 12, HYDE PARK ADDITION (LAWRENCE MUGGL U: Councilman Nee said he was very impressed with the plans and he would like to per- suade the City to spend the money on one of the plans. Mayor Liebl questioned if the planting was set back far enough? The City Engineer said there are two proposals, one, for planting and another for the rnstallation of staggered wood posts. He said he felt the wood posts would be least expensive to maintain, but he thought ihere should 6e an alternative plan presented. He said there was not much difference m the cost of the two proposals. Mayor L�ebl asked where the money would come from. He asked rf there had been any budgeted for this type of prolect? The City Manager said he thought the City Engineer maintained his budget so well that the City can manage this pro�ect very well. Mayor Liebl suggested this pro�ect be approved. � The City Manager said he believed the staggered posts would be a better plan than the planting because of the salt factor. ue said he recommended the posts so there would be no killing out of the plants. MOTION by Councilman Nee to authorize approval of the staggered wood post installa- tion plan. Seconded by Councilman Utter.

Councilman Breider said the City does not have much residential property left. He added, there are different levels of housing in the City today, He said the people who do move here have quality home=, not low income, Councilman Breider said he believed this action would perpetrate what is set in the Code.

He said the City had suggested the bill be modified with the cond rtion that the ball park would be used by the recreation department when the Little League was not using it.

The City Finance Director said the bill had been $600 and some odd cents, and the amount was rounded off to the dollar. Councilman Starwalt questioned the large amount of the bill for �ust two ye2rs. Mayor Liebl said the amount depended on the meter reading. Councilman Utter said they had only 6een billed $38 the first year. The Finance Director said this was not an accurate bill.
