He said there would be some initial expenses which would have to be met, and if this was possible, he would recommend that Mr. Leon Madsen be made treasurer of the committee. �� , i � � t 4 f Eiaboratinq on the need for some initial funding for the various projects, Mr. � Smith said the preparation of the commemative coin would have to be done with sales in advance of the celebration. He listed one need for advance funding as the production of the community play. Ne said these events could be self supporting, but initially, ` there would be some expenses for their preparation.

He said,he would be ab1e to give the Council a firmer idea of the amount of money needed for this type ! of preparation by the first meeting in March. ' , Mr, Smith's second request was that the City would make the payment for additional i liability insurance for the committee members and all those in the community who would � be participating. He advised the Council that his could be handled as a rider, and he would like to obtain this insurance to cover the committee and the various groups involved in the planning.

He said the City was providing secretarial services to the Committee in the form of typing of the notices and dcinp various work to keep ihe committee going. MR. BOB DUELHOLM, 290 CRAIGBROOK WAY N. E.: Mr. Dueiholm addressed the Council and said his concern was because of the City's attampt to obtain an easement for the culvert for Stonybrook Creek. Ne asked what was the main reason for putting this cu]vert through the area, The City Manager said�that there had been a complete proposal for the alleviation of the drainage problems of the area, but the cost for the installation would have been one quarter of a million dollars. He said this is what a hearing had been held on. He explained the existing culvert to be too sma11 to take care of the flow to the east. He stated another reason for the installation of the additional culvert is that when the river is high, the existing culvert is under the water. He said thirdly, when one time, the logs blocked the culvert, water got so high the people complained about the water being up to their doors. Mr. Duelholm addresed again and questioned what additional work would be done to protect the banks. He said many are unprotected now when the water reaches�that level. He stated his bank would not take ten feet of water, and his back yard would end up in the river faster. He questioned the installation of another 56 inch culvert when there is one there naw. He said the completed installation would provide for two four and a half foot culverts. The City Manager said many peop1e had been present on the hearing on the improvements in the area, and they all vaanted the expensive installation > but did not want to pay for it. He said work had been done on the banks in tne area and now, the Counci] had approved the project. He said if the area people would want a better improvement, the facilities can be provided, if they are willing to pay the cost. Mayor Liebl said the people of the area had heard the proposals and had decided the plan was too expensive. The City Manager said the people west of East River Road are not being charged fot" the work being done at the present time. He said a11 of the assessments are being levied on these east of East River Road. • Mr, Duelholm said he understood that most of the property owners favored the plan that • was presently being used, but now the �City is askinq four property owners for easements. He said he thought the improvements in the area should be better, and if nothing better than this is done, he would not sign the easement to the City. Councilman Breider stated when the matter was discussed, the people indicated if the total improvement was made, they would still want some flow down the creek. Fie said he could not see the County taking the the culvert out of East River Road and it� woul<1 Still leave the possibility of a large spilling through the area. Ne said the people were all afraid of the installation of the culvert on A1den as it refers to the culvert under East River Road. .� �' ' C�� I�� , , ' , _ ' ' ' k � � , � , I , i � _i , � , ' ' ' , , � � � , � � ' ' �� ' 5U REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 4, 1474 PAGE 3 Mr. Duelholm said he thought sometime there would be a culvert under Alden Way, and this might be putting the cart before the.horse. Mayor Liebl asked Councilman Nee if he t�rould look at the area to determine the situation. Ne indicated he wou]d also look at the situation. He said perhaps, the City Counci� should take a second look at the installatiQn , maybe the size of the culvert should be looked at. Mayor Liebl asked Councilman Nee if he wouid give the Council a report on the situation the following meeting. Councilman Nee said he is generally aware of the prob7ems in the area. He questioned if the addition of the cu7vert would create more drainage, and if it would create less damage to the area property if the flow is taken off faster. The City Manager explained this $ituation to be similar to the situation on East River Road. Ne said there is a capacity of flow for each size culvert, and the problems would be taken care of by design of the system. He said with one culvert on top of the other, it wouid be less likely that they would both be blocked at the same time. He said in the spring months the lower culvert would be under the water. Councilman Nee questioned if the hydraulic solution of the problem as being installed wouTd do less damage to the area properties. The City Manager said this woulc! be the best solution of the problems for the amount of money spent. He said this would substantiaily reduce the damage.

Cauncilman Nee said he was not speaking for the petition, he had not seen it. Mr. James 4angenfeldt, Chairman of the�Environmental Quality Commission, Fridley, questioned the language of the petition stating he had never seen such a rlocument.

He said the County Commissioners had also expressed concern. He pointed out that a stop sign amounted to an expenditure of $50 each and a signal would be at least $6,000. He said there is no con�mittment ; for a date, the County has said the intersection does not warrant a signal yet. Councilman Starwalt said in time the intersection is really going to need a signal. Councilman Utter agreed saying the traffic has really increased in that area. He said there is added construciion planned with a warehouse and with the cross traffic, this should really be controlled. The Reverend Nenderson addressed the Council and said he had remained at the meeting ' because of the discussion of this item.

Henderson stated the traffic does travel more than 35 miles an hour, it is more like 45 to 50 miles per hour.

E. 2iVD STREET: Mayor Liebl called Mr. Tauer forward and said he had d9scussed the matter with him in a phone conversation in which Mr. Tauer had indicated he had not attended the meeting when the matter had been considered because he had to take off work to do so. Mayor Liebl reviewed the circumstances of the matter saying Mr. Tauer had requested the City construct an eight foot fence between his property and the park which would have been paid for sole]y by the City. He said the Council action on the matter was to authorize the construction of a four foot fence by the City and if any additional height was desired by Mr. Tauer, he would pay the additional cost for this added fencing. Mayor Liebl pointed out that Mr. 7auer had discussed the matter previously with his ward Councilman, Mr, Nee. Mr. Tauer addressed the Council and said his portion�of the payment would involve a payment of $120 and continued to restate the situation of the four and eight foot fence proposals. Mr, Tauer presented the Council with a box of exhibits of the type of items the young peopte of the area had been throwing into his drive- way from the park area. He explained the damage caused on severa] instances. He continued stating there are parks in other areas which do have the higher fencing to allow for protection of private property and also for the protection af the area children. ' Councilman Nee expressed the view that tM s amount for the protection of an adjoining ! property owner should be included in the budget for the acquisition of the land for parks. ! . i • . i zs _ PUBLIC.NEARING MEETING OF JANUARY 14, 1974 PAGE 2 Councilman Nee said he had done all he could for Mr. Tauer's request, but had counted the votes, and this was all that could be done. He said he did not know the difference in price at the time, but thought now that this may be about $225. Mayor Liebl said he wou]d not want a toddlers park to look like a prison, He would like a slide, a wheel and other small recreational facilities for the toddlers. He added, usually the mothers accompany their children to the park, they should supervise their chiidren to make a go of the park area. He pointed out there is no attendant in a park of this size. He said if it is done in this area, it would have to be done in all other areas. Mr. Tauer indicated this is not the case and he has been able to view the park area from his window. Mayor Lieb1 said something should be done to prevent this situation from getting out of hand. Mr. Tauer said he did work and was away some of the time, but was able to review ! the area a great deal the past summer, Ne said ,on one instance he got invo7ved with the young people when they broke down a tree and the po]ice had to be called. He thought this was not the type of policing the park should need. Mayor Liebl said that Mr. Tauer would be able to sign a claim rather than discipline the children. Mr. Tauer said he had not hit the children, and he did not like getting involved with the people and their chi7dren in this manner. Fie said he had no objection to the park, but he did not think he should suffer damages because the park was not being used properly. Mr. Tauer said he believed the acquisition of the fancing should be included in the price of the property as Counci7man Nee had suggested. He thought this would be a necessary part of a park. He said he requested the Council to look into the matter a second time and possib]y visit the area. Counci7man Utter asked why there is a basketball backboard in the Toddler Park. He thought this should be removed and said no four or five year oids are shooting baskets. � Mayor Liebl asked if the eight foot fence would soive Mr. Tauer's prob7ems. Mr. Tauer said if the fence instalted does not have ho]es small enough to stop the children from throwing things thraugh, he would put up a fine wire fencing a1so. Councilman Starwalt asked Mr, Tauer about his reluctance to sper�d $200 for the remainder of the fence from the four foot level. Mr. Tauer replied, he did not think he should pay for the fence because it is not his fence. Councilman Nee explained, Mr, Tauer feeis he is being assaulted by the City. MOTION by Councilman Nee to authorize the construction of an eight foot fence with the fencing to be eight feet in the area where it would run adjacent ta the Tauer building, and with the City assuming the entire cost of the fence. Mayor Liebl declared the MOTION DEAD FOR LACK OF A SECOND. " MOTION by Counciman Utter to direct the Administration to review the matter again, and compare the situation with a11 of the other toddler parks in the Gity. Seconded by Councilman Starwalt.

RECEIVING THE MINUTES OF THE PLANNING GOMMISSION MEETING OF JANUARY 9, 1974: REQUEST FOR A SPECTAL USE PERMIT SP. #73-13, BY A. DAVIDSON: TO PERMIT E F S 0 C RS 7 95 NIGH . E., BEI G B 7 The City Manager pointed out the area of consideration in the proposed used car lot on the map on the overhead projector. He stated the Planning Commission had recommended the special use permit be approved with the stipulation that this permit would have Lo be reconsidered,or reviewed in the period of one year. The City Manager said he would like to add and recommend some stipulations. i � , ; -`� ; � . ;i • � PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF JANUARY 14, 1974 . . �7 . PAGE 3 He suggested that some park land be provided, some screening be provided between the operation and the trailer court, that there be four light poles instailed for security purposes, that the area be blacktopped and that some landscaping be provided on the west or T. H. #65 side. Mr. Davidson addressed the Council and stated their operation is the largest in the Midwest with the Lyndale operation occupying 45,000 square feet of space. He explained the concept to be new in the area. Mr. Davidson said they would begin the operation initially with the car lot and would consider the construction of show rooms and a service department in the future depending on the needs of the Fridley location. He firmly stated, they intended to stay a long time. Mayor Liebl suggested there be a iimitation in the length of time the facility is altowed to operate in the temporary structure before the permanent building is constructed. P1r. Davidson replied, 6e wouid like the period of one year to determine the the type of business because at the present time, he was unable to determine the type of building they would like to construct. Mayor Liebl quesiioned the construction and installation of the utilities and the agreement on this factor. Mr. Davidson assured the Councii that the Corporate Interests in the facility woutd dictate that this is done correctly. Mr. Davidson said the current investment would be approximately $1Q0,000 and may reach a million dollars in the future growth of the facility. Councitman Utter questioned the statement in the minuies asking if the operation would be based on a l5� commission on sales and Mr. Davidson agreed. Councilman utter asked if the cars would be reconditioned before resale. Mr. Davidson said they would be. Councilman Utter said he had been in contact with the area property owners and they had indicated they would not be ooposed to the operation of a used car ]ot, but would oppose the construction or inst«llation of a service area. He further explained the people fe7t the service department and body shop would create problems and be more undesirable, Councilman Starwalt asked if there would be some fencing on the north side of the property between the car 1ot and the trailer court. Mr. Davidson said there is some existing fencing in that area at the present time. Councilman Starwalt said he thought there was a need to fence the area on the north side. Mr. Davidson said 1f the Counci] would feel this was necessary, it would be installed. He said it may be required for security reasons. Councilman Starwalt said if the Councii would feel better, this would be done. Councilman Nee commented he was not opposed to the installation of the servi�ce , facility as the City was in need of additional service operations. He said at the area service centers, there is alway a wait and a line up. He said he did not think the installation of the service department wou]d be detremental to the area if the work was not done outside. Mayor Liebi felt that this was a good fresh outlook on the used car market and would provide a good used product. He said it would be the obligation of the Council not to allow the facility to hurt the property owners in the area. Mayor Liebl said he agreed with Councilman Nee's statement, there is a need for service centers in Frid]ey. He said there is only one large center, and this was Viking Chevrolet. He said he would like to see a quality permanent structure similar to what had been exhibited in the newspaper clipping provided by Mr. Davidson. Mr. Davidson explained for the last 45 to 50 years the used car business has had a bad reputation and he would like this fresh concept on the market to provide a quality used car product. Ne added if the customer is able to bring the car back for service after he has purchased it, this would aid in this area. We referred to the new program in the State which would necessitate the installation of the service area being located on the site. Councilman Starwalt said he agreed with Mayor Liebl and Councilman Nee on the need for additional service needed in Fridley. He asked Mr. Davidson if the Planning Commission was aware of the extent of the Company's plans for the operation on the proposed site. Mr. Davidson said the Planning Co�nission was given a detaiTed expianation of the plans for the future. Y � .F � i. � , �J � �J ' ' � � ' i � � � � i � � � � 1� PUBLIC HEARING MEE7ING OF JANUARY 14, 1974 PAGE 4 Mr. Davidson said many of the area service stations are cTosing and there would be an additional need for service areas. Councilman Starwalt asked Mr. Davidson where the service department would be located if this was installed. Mr. Davidson pointed out it would be in the middle and east portion of the property. Mr. Davidson explained the fencing on the north or adjacent to the trailer court had not been mentioned previously through a simpie oversight. With the investment plans for $100,000, it is understandable to overlook the construction of a privac,y fence, he added. He referred io the Lyndale operation and said this was in a highly residential operation and stated there had been no complaints about the operation there, The City Manager recommended approval of the special use permit for the periad of one year as recommended by the Planning Commission stipulaiing that all the requirements for set back be met, that there be landscaping provided on the west side, that the area be blacktopped with curbing provided, and tfiat four iight poles be installed, that fencing be provided on the north side of the property �. if it is warranted, a six foot fence be installed on the norih side and a1so, that the operation be reviewed before construction of any structures. • Mayor Liebl said there should be some permanent building constructed after the period of about six to eight months. He stressed he thought the City wouid be going backwards if they allowed the applicant to operate out of a trailer. The City Manageh said this would be done for �ne year only. Councilman Breider said it had been the policy of the City to tax the trailer or temporary structure as a permanent structure for the-year it is on the site, or as long as it is there. Mr. Davidson said the Company is planning to build a building in the area, but at the present time, they did not know what type. He said the trailer would be used for the first year, and this is why they requested approval I of allowing the operation of the trailer. � _f MOTION by Councilman utter to concur with the recommendations of the Planning Commission and grant the Special Use Permit for the period of one year, that the trailer be taxed as a permanent structure during its term of usage, that the area be blacktopped with curbing and the four security lights as suggested by the City Manager be installed, and that after the period of one year, if the applicant would come to the City for a building permit, the adjacent praperty owners would be notified about the request, and that there be landscaping on the west side and the fencing on the north side. Seconded by Councilman Starwalt. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Liebl declared the motion carried unanimously. A LOT SPLIT, L. S. #74-01, BY AMERICAN AUTO LISTINGS: TO SPLI7 T N P Rf.

Mayor Liebl said the conditions have rapidly become more severe in the iast few years, but he had watched this process since 1961 and no Counci] has taken any action to do anything about it. He said some action must be taken because the conditions are becoming worse all of the time. Mayor Liebl referred to the work done by the young people the previous summer and said this work barely scratched the surface. � He continued stating he thought the Council should instruct the City Administration to determine what financial support could be obtained from the Rice Creek Watershed District, from the Metro Council, and P. C. A. if any. He said he would like to see some steps taken to enable the City to continue with the plans to create the Rice Creek nature trail. Mayor Liebl recalled the meeting of the Council that was attended by the Chairman of the Rice Creek Watershed District and said at that time they were advised t�tey must make a request as a City Council for any aid or funding. He pointed out if the other area communities are invo]ved, there would be more input. He stressed the importance of the other communities participating in the project because they are pushing material �nto the Creek and Lake. Mayor Liebl recommended that the Administration contact the P. C. A, and determine if this type of project would be within their jurisdiction, advocating there are other communities which are causing the problems. He ihought the various governmental agencies could cooperate for the alleviation of the prob]ems. He stated, only on a united basis could the enormous problems be handled. Ne questioned what criteria must be met on the City 7eve1 to accomplish this aim. He suggested a study or analysis be done of the area to determine where the problems exist and what can be done about this to get the project started. He said he would also like a study on what could be done in the future to prevent Rice Creek and Locke Lake from accumulating materia7s. He said the !City has become a catch basin and something had to be done about it. �. Councilman Breider said all of the determining factors must be discussed with relation to the pollution and erosion and this would include the use of the motorized vehicles on the tressel in the Locke Lake area. He listed several �bnditions in this area which would tend to increase the seriousness of the problems and said the Council wou]d have to make some firm decisions. He said there is also the question of bringing the lake back to its original form. He stated he sympathized with the people of the area, but did not think there was a lot the C9ty could do to work their way out of the situation. He mentioned the steps taken the previous year and said this turned out to be "Breider`s Folly". Mayor Liebl again stressed the importance of getting the other communities involved and stated because of the funnel in Fridley, the materiaT is stopped in this area. He said he would like to know what is environmentaily feasible and also what would be feasible in the engineering sense. He stated the City had not appointed an Environmentai Quality Commission for front dressing, they should have some plans to get something underway. He said with the cooperation of the various groups, the Council, the staff, a positive proposa7 for the remedy of the situation should be obtained. Councilman Nee said he was not sure what Mayor LiebT's proposal was. He continaed stating he was under the imprassion that the Rice Creek Watershed District was in the process of preparing an engineering study on this type of problem and the solutions. He said he did not know what their interests are, but if they are not functioning, something should be done about it. He added, they have the power to tax the Watershed area including part of the City of Fridley and should'to the job they were organized to do. Councilman Nee recalled the work ori the Watershed District organization began in 1963, and shortly after this , there was discussion by the City Council about the storage basin east of Old Central. He said the previous Council did take some action and during the term that Mr. Jack Kirkham was Mayor, there was a proposal which may have been worked out with New Brighton. Councilman said this proposa] faced po]itical pressures and was defeated. Councilman Nee said if something is not being done by the District at the present time, the City sfiould encourage them to do something. He did not feel the City had the power to make the necessary adjustment up stream and said he was referring to the construction of a ho]ding basin in the east portion � i � ' � ' , �� ' ' , , ' ' � , ' Z� PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF JANUARY 14, 1974 PAGE 6 of the City. Councilman Nee added, this proposal may not be feasible hydraulically or engineeringwise. He recalled at the time it was being discussed, it was not politically possible. Mayor Liebl repeated the direction the Council had received from the members of the Watershed District when they attended a meeting of the Council, stating the City would have to make a request. He directed the Council'a attention to Councilman Nee's Ward stating this is where the majority of the problems are and he hoped to gain the support for the proposal from Counci7man Nee. Councilman Nee stated, if the Water Shed District is not doing something, let's make them to domething and now. Mayor Liebl asked the City Manager if he knew if there was any plans or actions in progress at the present time for the alleviation of the problems of Rice Creek and Locke Lake. He said if not, the City would have to take the first step because they are not taking it. MO7ION by Councilman Nee to direct the Administration to determine if such a request for action has been made to the Rice Creek Watershed District for the alleviation of the problems on Rice Creek and Locke Lake, and �f such a request has not been made, that one be prepared and submitted to the Council for consideration at the next meeting of the Council. Seconded by Councilman Utter for purposes of discussion. Councilman Utter referred to a similar problem in the City of Minneapolis on Shingle Creek. He said after much publicity in the newspaper about the filth and debris in the Creek, the area was cleaned up. He said a government off�cial trave]ed the creek after the clean up and remarked on the wonderful job done. He stressed the Metro Council and also the P. C. A. had a great dea] to do with this project. Councilman Utter said the Metro Sewer Commission should be contacted in addition to the groups mentioned earlier. He pointed out that the Metro Sewer Board had created a big problem for Locke Lake and Rice Creek. He said they si�ould get out there and do something. He recalled they had been requested to do something the previous summer and had not done much. Mr. Andrew Kohlan, 236 Rive Creek B]vd., addressed the Council and said he apprec- iated the spirit of the members of the Council. Ne said he thought there may be . more to the issue once it is dug into. Mr. Kohlan said his home was built on the north side of the Creek and there was four feet of running water in that area in the back of his home, and the creek was once clean enough to swim in. He said last summer, there was only about six inches of water at this same po7nt in the creek. He said it would not permit the passage of a canoe. He said there had been 32 feet of silt into that part of the creek in ten years. He suggested the City of Fridiey not wait for some gigantic help from the various organizations. He suggested doing something at the present time on the Ciiy ievel to alleviate the problems. He suggested requiring money for the construction of additionaT structures on the creek at the time a building permft is requested. He explained this could be done in the same manner as money is required for the park system. He also suggested at the time of the application for the building permits that an easement for maintenance of the creek banks be required. He said many people would not a11ow the maintenance of the area of their yards adjacent to the creek, they state it is private property. Mr. Kohlan also stressed the importance of prevention of the erosion into the creek water in the area. He mentioned the snowmobiles, motor bikes and other sources force eroded material into the creek. He recalled a five foot area had been washed into the creek by the sewer pipe. He also referred to a hill by the Woodcrest Baptist Church which had been washed into the cree�C two or three times, and an area where the Highway Department had lost their fill into the creek. Mrs. Helen Johnson, 6817�Hickory Street N. c., addressed the Council and expressed the thought that all the agencies possible should be employed to solve the problems. Mr. Donovan Schultz, 15 Rice Creek Way, addressed the Council and said he did not think the natural springs in the Lake could be restored and he is sure they are not ranning at the present time. He questioned how much fill the springs could take before becoming inactive, t�tr. Schu]tz continued stating most of the sumner it is impossible for a canoe to travel down the creek because there has been so much filling in. He stated when the publicity was given the area for canoing, this was during a high water point. Ne said Rice Creek has become a drainage ditch and Locke Lake is now a cesspool.

I , � i i # , ' ' ' ' � ' ' � � ' [� , ' � ' ' 21 PUBLIC HEARTNG MEETING OF JANUARY 14, 1974 PAGE 7 MOTION by Councilman Nee to direct the Administration to set up a study session with the Board of the Rice Creek Watershed District, Seconded by Councilman Starwalt. � A question was raised concerning the study session and whether it wouid involve all areas of the problems and their solutions. Councilman Nee said he would like to find out what they are doing and if they ' are not doing anything, he would like to know this also. Mayor Liebl asked if they had done anything in the last ten years. Councilman Nee said he did not�know, and asked how long they have been in effect. The City Attorney sa.id this had not been longer than five years and couid be as little as two to three years. The City Manager said he would say it was more like three years. Councilman Nee again stressed the importance of the meeting, stating the City of Fridley is in the dark and should know what is_being done. Mayor Liebl said he thought there should be some detailed study done before the Board is met with. He said they would need to be schooled on the issue and become prepared, prasent a proposal and justify the proposed program. Councilman Nee said he would withdraw the motion with the understanding that it wouid be.determined in some way what the action or proposed action of the Rice Creek Watershed Distri.ct may be, He stated he wouid.not ignore the.fact that .they should be working for the dismissal of the problem. Councilman 8reider said he thought the City should find out how far the County would want to go in the aid of this project. Councilman Breider stated he thought the only way the problems in the City would be stopped would be to stop the traffic of the motorized vehicles, and whether the Council would want to take action to this e�d must be decided prior to any request for action from an outside source. iNayor Liebl said this is why he had made this proposal. Councilman Nee again said he just wanted to know if the District is doing their job, he asked if they could just be asked about what they are doing. He said if they are not doing anything, the City of Frid]ey should sue them. He said then, the City would have the grounds for such a suit. Counci7man Starwalt said the dates and involvement of the creation of the problems shouTd be obtained. UPON A VOICE VOTE, Councilman Nee and Councilman Starwalt voting aye, Councilman.

The City Manager said yes, the State had instructed the City to make application. [' ' � ' ' i � � �� ' ' � ' 22 PUBLIC H�ARING MEETING OF JANUARY 14, 1974 PAGE 8 He expiained the City had to make pre-applications before submittinq this application. He said this request would mean the City is eligibie for funding. Ne said the letter of reply had instructed the City to prepare a formal report and appiication. The City Manager explained the application would have to be submitted the next day, and this is why he would ask that the Council take action at the present meeting. Ne said this would be submitted to the State Planning Department, Parks and Recreation Division. Mayor Liebl asked a question concerning the parce7 of land in the agreement which was referred to as parcel #3. He asked if the City must purchase the land in order to receive the funds from the state. The City Manager said this was true. He said the City would become the property owner which would be similar to what is being done on Chase's Island. Ne aid there were two problems, the City would not purchase the iand before the grant is made and the State would oniy provide one half of the appraised value and this would be $35,000. The C9ty Manager expressed the hope that the Islands of Peace Foundation be successful in their fund drive to enable them to provide their share of the necessary funding. The City manager recommended the counci] approve the agreement and reso]ution to enable the work to be done and the application submitted the next day. Mayor liebl asked Mr.Andrew Hohlan, representing the Islands of Peace Foundat9on � if the fund drive had begun and if the Foundation would be able to provide the necessary � funding to meet the obligation. Mr. Kohlan addressed the Council stating the obligation would be met. He indicated he is the Secretary of the Foundation and said the members of the Foundation are aware of the obligation that has to be met, and it would be met. , Mayor Liebl said the City wou7d meet the obligations in the agreement just as the Foundation had agreed to meet theirs. � Councilman Breider said it would be fine with him as long as the Foundation said they would meet their obligation and the installment payments. Mr. Kohlan pointed out that the Foundation had already paid $15,000 and the payment of $8,000 plus the interest would be coming up in May. Mayor Liebl indicated the $15,000 had been ' the down payment for the property. Mr. Kohlan repeated, the Foundation had a $15,000 investment in the property. � The City Manager said this was true, and now the City is not to purchase the land unti] the application of the funding is approved. Mr. Kohlan said he was aware of this regulation.

Councilman Starwalt questioned the acquisition of Parcel #3 or the Hayes River Lots, and asked what was the procedure for this and what would the terms be. Councilman 8reider indicated this would be the terms of the agreement. � Mr. Kohlan said the City was under no ob]igation to complete the purchase. The � City Attorney said the City had entered into an agreement to participate, not by cond.emnation, but by agreement and the necesssry documents had been signed. Mr. Kohlan said the Foundation would carry the burden. Mr. Kohlan further explained that the State people had expressed a desire that this be a pilot project.

Mr. Ed Wilmes, Originator of the Islands of Peace, addressed the Council and said he would like to talk about two matters unrelated to the present item. Mr. Wilmes said he had met with the Chairman of the Foundation that day and the Chairman had received a communication from Commissioner Robert L. Herbst, Minnesota Department of Natural Resources concerning a tour of the Islands of Peace by himself and Mr. Don Oavison, Director of the Minnesota Oepartment of Parks and Recreation, December 28, 1973. Mr. Wilmes stated the reason for the tour was to determine what couid be dane by the State Departments listed previous]y, to aid in the project. He said they were also concerned about how the facility could relate to the State facilities and take care of the future needs of the wildlife and natural areas. Mr. Wilmes said it is essential that this natural area for the disadvantaged and handicapped have no boundaries far cooperation. Mr. Wilmes continued his presentation by quoting from various newspaper articles and Council minutes which pointed out the histroy of the project from the time of its origination by Mr. Wilmes to the present time, - '. . Mr. Wilmes concluded his presentation with a brief explanation of the benefits � of public education on the activities of the handicapped and disabled. He cited an example of this type of progress as the construction.of a shelter building within the �State Fair Grounds for the handicapped and disabled, which was constructed by the Navy Seabees. REVIEW OF MOQIFIED PRELIMINARY REPORT ON SAFETY IMPROVEMENT ON EAST RIVER ROaD FROM I. 694 TO RICE CREEK: Mayor Liebl said the problem ereas at the present time are in the stretch of East River Road adjacent to the Georgetown Apartments. He said it was his apinion that the Council should have a study session on this proposed plan so they would be able to go into detail when the presentation is made to the people of the area. The City Manager said some determination has to be made on what to present to the people. He said they would have to tell the people what is proposed and why it is proposed. Ne felt the improvements made at the intersection of Mississippi and East River Road had a favorable response from the people. He said now, the City could take the next stop and present a modified plan to the people for the other areas. He said if the improvements are not all done at one time, they could be done section by section, but since the area of Georgetown is the �'�d area, he suggested this be done first. He stressed the need to formulate a proposal for the • public. • Mayor•tiebl asked if the Administration had been in contact with the property awners of the area and the City Manager said that contacts had been made, and they were in agreement with the preseni modified proposal in the area of Georgetown. Mayor Liebl said he thought the plan cou7d be finalized. The City Manager said he would like to have a study session of the Council before this is done. Councilman Nee asked if the Planning Commission could be included in the study session. Mayor Liebl said they had not been involved in the discussion of the proposal last time it was being considered, Councilman Nee said if the meeting would include the Planning Commission, this would bring in more points of view than if the Council would go over the matter alone before the people are brought in. The City Manager stressed the importance of diminishing the problems on the East River Road and said they are not just going to go away, the Council would have to keep after them. Gouncilman Breider questioned if the structures of the area could be included in the map presented to the Council. he said it would be important for the Council and the people to know where the roadway would be in relation to the structure5. The City Manager said he would like the Council to approve the concept of the modified plan. He said the public did not like the first plan, and he had tried to modify it and make it workable. � 24 PUSLIG HEARING MEETING OF JANUARY 74, ]974 PAGE 10 Mayor Liebl suggested the study session on East River Road be conducted after the next evening's session on North Park. Counci7man Utter said he had determined there would be many-people present at that session, and questioned if it would become too late to begin a study session. The City Manager said the plan had been compromised considerably, engineeringw.ise.

Mr. Blair asked if the intentions �ti�ere for the 2974 - 1975 Skating Season, and Mr. Brown said that they were. Mr. Blair asked if the City had any plans to construct a Hockey rink at Rice Creek School, and Mr. Brown stated that we did not. Mr. Br.own taent or� to explain that we presently have no plans to build additional Hockey rinks, but in the event that we do have funds made available, the next xink should go to the Rice Creek School area or Dave Harris Estates, There is a real vaid in this area. bir. iVagar stated that from his past experience, he thinks the construction of a mini-Hockey rink with only 2' boards would be a bad investment. Mr. Blair said that he wouid have to concur wi.th that statement. birs. Caldwell asked if the 2' high boards wouldn't be dangerous? Mr. �ti'agar said that they w�ould be fine for the 5 or 6 year old, but would be very dangerous for the IO to 12 year o�d. lVith the construction of any type of boards, it would be a drai,ring,point for the Hockey skater, and the o2der boys always dominate the rinks, so the 5 and 6 year olds would still be without a place to play Hockey. Mr. Brown was asked who would be responsible for eontrolling the situation? He responded by saying that the attendant would have to be in complete charge. bir. Wagar said that that would be an impossible situation, and used the example.of the past Summer before t'he Beach opened at A�oore Lake for the Season. He had stopped his car and informed.the s��rimmers that the Beach zJas not open, no lifeguards were an duty, and that they should get out of the water. He said that the violators almost threi4� him in.the lake, and they weren't teenagers, either. He agreed that it would b� an impossible situation. Robert Peterson'arrived and Mr. Blair briefed him on the Terrace �tockey Rink discussion. � ' btr. tVagar said that he felt the City had other priorities which should be con�iderecl first. hlrs. Caldwell said that cJe're having enoug}i trouble maintaining the rinks which we already have. � , �tvrroN ' , �(� j2U� CUfV� E necomme��tc ce Cn.e�Sc �u- aan� � Ci1c : . vc, Secartded b Ccc.e.dwe,2�, �� necvnunev�d ,�a .��ce C.i.t1 Caccrcei,e, �liu-i �lie `nuc.� a�l lii[L,��LtQ-(.Yi a Hac �ec n,c.�c .. a.t Tehnccce Yan� `.

The City became eligible for the sale of flood insurance at a subsidized rate on January 21, 1974. I am preparing the letters to be sent to the residenta and news media. The next step in the pro�ram is the actual identification of the flood hazard areas and the establishment of a flood hazard boundary map by H.U.D. From these maps, rate studies are done, to set actuarial premium rates. It could be as much as one or two years before this information is available.

Bernstein Federal Insurance Adm'inistrator 0 � i ' � ., ' � � I� ' ' ' i � ' � ' � ' ' 1 LOCAL PROPERTY OWNERS CAN NOW GET HUD NATIONAL FLOOD INSURANCE The U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development announced today that effective January 21, 1974, local property and casualty agents can start selling HUD national flood insurance in Fridley, Minnesota. The Nationa� Flood Insurers Association has designated the St. Paul Fire and Marine Insurance Company, 7900 Xerxes Avenue South, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55431 as the servicing company for Fridley, Minnesota. Agents should contact this company immediately to obtain policy forms, rates, flood insurance mannuals, and any other necessary information. According to Federal Insurance Administrator George K. BernStein, "now ihat the community has estabTished its eligibility, owners of both residential and nonresidential properties should take prompt advantages of this vital insurance protection." He pointed out that annual U. S. property damage resulting from natura] disasters averages $l bi]lion � and that about 5,000 communities in the nation have some kind of flood threat. Insurance at federally subsidized rates may be purchased from local property and casualty agents and brokers for all existing and new structures built prior to the identificaiton of the a�r.eas of special flood hazard in amount up to $17,50Q for single family houses and up to $30,Q00 for all other residential and nonresidential structures. On structures, rates range from 25 to 60 cents per $100 of insurance, depending on their value. Contents may be insured up to $5,000 with rates ranging from 35 to 45 cents per $100 of insurance on residential contents and $.75 per $100 of insurance on contents of nonresidential properties. Insurance policies will be effective immediately as issued during the first 30 days the insurance became available. Insurance purchases after the first 30 days of community eligibility will become effective after a 15 day waiting period. Besides providing coverage against loss, the Federal flood insurance program helps promote sound flood plain management and land use control. Mr. Bernstein explained that "in becoming eligible for flood insurance, communities must adopt land use and control measures, which vary according to the characteristics and specific flood threat of the individual community. These measures are generally designed to guide future developement away from flood hazard areas and set construction standards such as minimum foundation and floor evaluations.° • �i 560•34i0 . _ 6E . .� .

LIEBL MAYOR , ' MEMO T0: Ma or and City Council Y ' ' , ' � MEMO FROM: Nasim M, Qureshi, City Manager DATE: SUBJECT: Gentlemen: January 30, 1974 Requests for Installation of Antennae on Water Reservoir Two requests have been received regarding the possibility of installing antennae on tlie City of Fridley Water Reservoir on 53rd Avenue N.E. • The Anoka County Communications Center (A.C.C.C.) is investigating possible sites within Anoka County to install additional antennae in order to increase the efficiency of its overall emergency communications system. At the present time the request is for informational purposes with actual site selection contingent on review of other sites investigated. A request from the North Area Repeater Association,.Inc. (N..A.R.A.) is a definite proposal as outlined in the attached presentation_, An investigation by the City Staff (see attached memo from Assistant Engineer) has resulted in the following: , 1. The antennae installation requested would be benificial to Fridley by providing complete emergency communications through- out the community. � , , ' �I ' ' ' ' 2. Due to maintenance problems which could develop with numerous antennae around the reservoir, the antennae installation should not become a commercial venture, but limited to these initial re- ques ts . 3. In order to keep the installations a public or municipal con- cern, a Reserve Emergency Unit of the Public Safety Department could be formed with N.A.R.A. included as a member. This would discourage further requests from private companies. A.C.C.C. is presently a public operation. 4. If approved, appropriate agreements should be executed denoting approval of installation plans by the City Engineering Department with initial construction costs, annual maintenance costs and fu- ture liability of the antennae equipment and buildings as the responsibility of the communication owners. , It is therefore recammended that, noting the above outlined conditions, consideration be given for approval of the r.equests. , NMQ/pl Attach. �L`",�-w�-, /�'i i� c.�i� `—�,r ��. NASIM M. QURESHI City Manager 7 �` ' MEMO T0: Nasim M. Qureshi, City Manager � , ' MEMO FROM: Richard N. Sobiech, Assistant Engineer DATE: SUBJECT: January 29, 1974 Installation of Antennae on Water Reservoir The Engineering Department has investigated two reauests regarding installation of antennae on the Fridley Water Reservoir at 53rd Avenue N.E. Originators of the requests are the Anoka County Communications Center (A.C:C,C.) and the North Area Repeater Association, Inc. (N.A.R.A.). � The A.C.C.C, request is in conjunctian with a study of various sites Anolca County is initiating for installation of a four-way relay system to assure complete emergency communications within Anoka County. The A.C.C.C.'s ' request is for informational purposes and actual site seleciion would be contingent upon review of all site information they collect. , The N.A.R.A. is a definite proposal to make use of the site as outlined in the attached presentation. Information received on both requests indicates that for either antenna installation no interference to neighboring properties would rESUlt. The antennae would have no harmful affect on the water reservoir ' and its ability to continue a normal supply operation. T7aintenance of the reservoir would be more difficult; however, with only two antennae installations, arrangements could be made for performance of the required maintenance. LJ � , , , , , �� , , The antennae would be no more than 20 feet above the top of the reservoir, therefore, within the limits of the Federal Communications Commission require- ments. Brackets far mounting the antennae to the reservoir and the actual mounting present no problems. The reservoir walls are poured concrete approxi- mately 12 inches thick. Mounting would take place at the rim of the reservoir where the dome (roaf) connects to the walls, in an area of no water containment, which would eliminate any potential of leakage. Both installations would require an individual storage building io house antenna control equipment which require access to 110 volt AC power, coaxial antenna cable from the antenna to the control house and a telephone line to the control house for ec{uipment control purposes. Each storage building would be approximately 50 square feet. The reservoir site has adea,uate space to allow construction of these starage facilities. Reviewing the request with neighboring communities indicate that approxi- mately 25% of all metropolitan water towers have antennae and some, for instance, Columbia Heights, are commercializing the operation by renting or leasing space. Discussions with the Public Safety Department and Public Works Department indicated the following: 1. That both antenna installations suggested would be beneficial to the community by providing the assurance of complete emergency communications. 7A I � . � � II � MEMO T0: Nasim M. Qureshi SUBJECT: Antennae InstalZation . Page Two , 2. The antenna installations should not be a commercial venture and should only be limited to these initial public requests. � 3. Formation of a Reserve Emergency Unit of the Fridley Public Safety Department, with a N.A.R.A, as a member, could keep the antenna instal- lations more a public concern rather than a private enterprise (this would hopefully discourage requests from private companies looking to , rent or lease antenna space on the premise that N.A.R.A. antenna instal- lation was approved. A.C.C.C. is a public concern and no question on their installati.on should result). 4. That if the antenna installations are approved, all plans be sub- mitted to the City Engineering Department for approval. 5. That all initial installation costs, annual maintenance of antenna equipment and buildings, and future liability of the antenna equipment and buildings should be the responsibility of the communication owners. 6. If the installations are approved, appropriate agreements regarding Items No. 4 and No. 5 be executed. With the foregoing discussion the Engineering Department believes the antenna installations will provide beneficial service to the residen�s of Fridley, there- fore, we recommend that with execution of the appropriate agreements consideration be given for approval of the requests.

First and foremast, the c�a��sion shauld be cognizant of the backqround relating to the acquisition of this praperty. The Czty of Fridley acquired the subject proper�y in 1970 and 197.Z. This property was purchased by the ci ty arzd was funded thxough use of LawS`on funds . In ihe app2i cation to the ; !�_ Department af Natural Resources (Minnesata agencyj and the Department of Interior, Bureau of Outdoor Recreation (federal agenc�), one of th� groposed uses for the property was that of a golf course. In approving the Law�oh grant, both of the above agencies have already approved the use of this property for a golf course. A1so of importance is the fact that most of the land adjacent to the proposed golf course is zoned either industrial ar comm�rcial. It i� hard to imagine that a golf course would have an adverse impact on the surrounding properties. � � I ' -Z- �� ' The City of Fridley is not unmindful af the need to preserve certain Zand in its natural state. Withzn the city park system, we have over � acres that have been kept in a natural candition. However, we also feel a need to provide a variet� of recreational programs for the citizens of our corrurtunity and adjacent communities. Our cvuncil feeZs that there is a need far a municipal golf course in our community. FinalZy, Zet me sa� that the city counciZ has spent a substantiaZ amount of time and �ney to determine the proper use of this praperty. Both the advocates of the golf course and the nature center have had ample oppor- tunity to advocate their positions. The cit� hired a consultanfi, for $.Z1,000, to advise the counciZ. The consultant recommended that the preferred use would be for that af a golf course. After a long study and careful delibera- tion, the council voted 4-1 to establish a.goZf course. We have authorized the cit� manager to proceed to select an architect to plan the golf course. We plan to make this determination on February Z1, 1974. In addition, our financial consultant,is making preparations for the issuance of revenue bonds. We hope to 1et a contract for construction of ' the golf course durinq the 1974 construction season.

Both the advocates of the golf caurse and the nature center have had ample opportunity ta advocate their positions. The city hired a consultant, for $11,000, ta advise the council. The consultant recommended that the pr�ferred use would be far that of a golf course. After a long study and careful deliberation, the council voted 4-1 to establish a golf course.

In addition, our finan.cial consultant is making preparations for the issuance of revenue bands. We hope to let a con- - tract for construction of the golf course during the 197�i constrnction season. Therefore, it is urgent that any decision regarding an environ� mental impact statement by your body be made as quickTy as possible so that the City of kridley can proceed with their plans.

QURESHI, CITY MANAGER ' SUBJECT: NATURALIST - NATURE,INTERPRETIVE PROGR.AM FOR THE CITY OF FRID!EY rPursuant to the instructions contained in the Council meeting minutes of January 21, 1974, attached herewith you will find the outline of the job descrip- tion for a naturalist for the City of Fridley. I hope the Council will review ' .the job outline and make any adjustments, if necessary, before the description is finalized. � I assume that, as long as the Council has instructed the administration to prepare a job descriptian, they have the desire to create a position of naturalist on the City staff and to fill that position sometime this year. If � we are going to have a naturalist on the staff, I feel that to make the program viable, he has to be provided with a reasonable amount of funds to conduct the program. With this in mind, I am submitting to you a preliminary, tentative budget outline so that the Council can start thinking about the proposal and � that in the near future we can finalize the proposal and make the appropriate changes and transfers in the City budget to prov�de funds for a nature inter- pretive program. The preliminary program is based on a budget of about six � to seven months of initial operation of the nature interpretive program in the City. I must emphasis this is only an operational budget, and there are no � capital improvement funds provided in the budget. , For 1975, I assume the Council would like the nature interpretive program to be incorporated in the overall budget, and make the proposal of the budget for this program in conjunction with the overall City budget, which is generally � done in the fall of the year. The proposed budget has been prepared on the . premise we would have some program started this year, and hopefully this would be expanded next year, depending upon the needs of the community, the response ' and acceptability of the program by the public. Also, depending upon the volunteer support, financial and otherw�se, rece9ved from the community and other sources, including State and Federal funds. tThe Council at the meeting of January 21, 1974, instructed me to prepare the outline and submit it back to the Council at the meeting of February 11, 1974. I am submitting this interim report to the Council encompassing a little broader � scope than the Counci1 had instructed me to prepare, a�ith the hope that Council will start thTnking in the areas beyond the job description. I hope this ' � � The Mayor and City Council -2- February 1, 1974 additional material will start the further process in motion, especially the budget program, and by getting same feedback from the Council, we hope to sub- mit a more formalized report to the Council at the meeting of February 11, 1974. I hope the Council takes this in the spirit of just informational material and we are not necessarily expecting the Council to make a decision at this meeting. Because there is a considerable amount of public interest in the proposal, hopefuliy the Council wouid make the decision on February 1], 1974, as that was the date given to the public in regard to this matter.

QURESHI, CITY MANAGER 1 SUBJECT: GOLF COURS� CONSTRUCTION i � 1. Developm�nt Since Council Decision of January 21, 1974 to Build a Golf Course on North Park Property: � � A. Fridley DFL Club Resolution. The DFL Club has requested, by resolution to the City Council, to conduct � an advisory referendum to determine public judgement on.the use of North Park. This resolution is on the Agenda of the Council Meeting of February 4, 1974. � , , �; r , I--� �� B. The DFL Club has also requested the Environmental Quality Council of the State of htinnesota, by petition, to ask the Fridley City Council to submit an environmental impact statement justifying their proposed construction of a golf course on the NortM Park property. What contact we have been able to make with the State Planning Agency, it seems that it wil] take them until the early part of March to complete their study of environmental assessment and to determine whether they can require the City to submit an environmental impact statement on this project. If the determination is that the environmental impact statement is required, then there is about six months time involved for preparing the report, receiving it from the City, and making an analysis of the report and a judgement whether there are any adverse environmental affects of the golf course project. (See attached mema from Jerrold Boardman regarding the possible State action on the environmentaT impact of the golf course proposal) � 2: Construction Schedule: In light of these recent developments, the City Council has to make a deter- mination whether they stiTl want to proceed rapidly on the construction of the golf course, or if they want to take a safer route of getting clearance each step of the way, and probably work toward the construction of the golf course in 1975. From what information we have been able to gather, it is still physically possible to complete the golf course in 1974 if the Council chose to move right on, select the architect and get the plans prepared and get the bids let and work started this summer. . � ' �` , � �_J � LJ , � � i ' , � ,� L� � � 1 I THE.MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL 3. Selection of Architect: -2- FEBRUARY l, 1974 In the last few days we have been checking into a number of architects who have some experience in the golf course design. I think Council should make a determination whether they feel that we should make the selection of a golf course architect from the oneswithin the State or should we go out of the State to find a architect. Both have their advantages and disadvantages. There are a number of architects locaTly available who have done golf course design work. (See the attached memo from the Administrative Assistant regarding golf course architect information) The process of the selection of an architect will also depend upon how much time the City wants to take to complete ihe process. If we are shooting for. this year construction, then I feei we probably are mostiy limited to a local architect, because they are in position to get the work started right away, and have quick coordination possiblities with the City. Also attached to this report is a proposed ietter and additional material we are planning to send to the list of architects attached herewith to get further information from these people. This interim report is being given to the City Council to bring them up to date about the facts about the goif course and also to get some feed back from them on what time schedule they desire the City staff to work on in light of these facts.

Proposed letter to architects �' , r � � � L� � � � J, � � � LJ , � , � �J ATTACHMENT 1 MEMO TO: Nasim Qureshi, City Manager MEMO FROM: Jerrold Boardman, Planning Assistant MEMO DATE: RE; February 1, 1974 Possible State Action on Environmental Impact of G�olf Course Proposal for North Park Minnesota Statute, 1973, Chapter 412 - H.F. NO. 1001 established a State environmental policy and program for the systematic review of environmental effects of various projects and actions. According to John Mohr, (of the State Planning Agency) who is handling the review of the petition against the golf course for the Environmental Qu�lity Com- mission, the Environmental Quality Commission is required by law to act on petitions with over 500 signatures. This act. consists of �review of the proposed action to determine whether or not an Environmental Impact 5tatement is required from the City on the golf course project. If the Environmei�tal Quality Commission decide that an Environmental Impact Statement is needed, the City must prepare one and submit it to the Environmental Quality Commission for their review. The Environ- mental Commissibn in their review of the Environmental Impact Statement, shall have the final decision on the project and could require changes to solve certain environmental issues even to the point of denying the entire project. . I talked to Jean Heilman, the attorney for the State Planning Agency, to determine the City`s legal responsibility and the State`s power to enforce this policy. She said that the City would be legally responsible for continued action on the golf course and that the State has the power to hold up development and if necessary reverse the project decision. She recommended that the City Council at this time, send a letter..to the Environmental Quality Commission requesting quick action on a decision as to whether an Environmental Impact Statement is needed because of development scheduling. Tn Summary, the State does have the power to hold up a project of this type and therefore, it would be best to cooperate with them as much as possible. The City should not make any committments on development until we know whether or not an Environmental Impact Statement must be done. However, we should continue to look at architectural firms and be ready to make our recommendations to the Council at the time of the Environmental Quality Commission decision which should come in early March. If the decision requires an Environmental Impact Statement, it will b.e necessary for the City to prepare or�e and. �' Memo to: Nasim Qureshi, City Manager � February Z, 1974 �I , Possible State Action on Environmental Impact of Gulf Course Proposal for North Park Page 2 ' . and submit it to this EnvironmentaL Quality Commission, (total � time involved, approximately six months). If the decision is that no Environmental Impact Statement is necessary, the pro�ect can continue with no other State review. � � ' - JERROLD L.

During the past week a variety of golf course architects and architectural , firms have either been contaced by the City or have contaced the City with questions concerning the go�f course. With�n the last week the following information has been gathered: . � ' , � r � � ' ' LJ � � , 1. A list of golf course architects is attached to this memo. 2. Of the people on the list which we have compiled in the last week, the following seem to have the most experience. Mr. Don Herfort, Inc, Brauer and Associates, Inc. Fairway Architects, Inc. 3. Attached to this memo is a letter which has been sent to all the individuals on the list noted above, with the data that has been attached. We have concentrated our efforts on looking for an architect to the metropolitan area, aithough some of the calls we have received have been from out of the state. We also have additional sources, such as professional publications from the Parks and Recreation Department which lists a variety of firms from diff erent areas of the country. The answer to the letter we are sending to the firms listed above should help answer many of the questions we will be concerned with. The response we receive from the architectural firms within the next week or two should allow us to reduce the number of eligible firms to five or six, and make it easier for us to prepare a final report for the Council. The final review should entail visits to the firm's offices and tours of the facilities wh�ich have been designed by the respective architects. PJH/pae � � i , ' � � � r . ."

PAPPAS AOMINtSTRA7NE ASSIS7AftT Congratulations on your recent permanent appointment as City Manager! I wish you well, and if I can ever be of any personal assistance9 do noi hesitate to contact me. � I am enclosing a copy of our 1973»74 budget as requested by the City Council on January 15th. I would be happy to visit with you or any member of the Council to help interpret it if anyone so desires. Short of that, perhaps a couple of comments are in order: 1. Our maximum levies, and in the case of Debt Service � and Transportation, our minimum levies are determined by the state legislature. ' � �� 2. Any state aid we are to receive for maintenance is reduced by 100% of our required rnaintenance levy. Any local increase in assessed valuation does not give us a single extra dollar to run our s chools. 3. The local school levy £luctuates very slightly for two reasons: a. The state sometimes requires an increased or new I� rnill levy such as the 1 mill fnr transportation this � year. � � I � I � b. Dollar levies required by the district are to be computed against the previous year's. EARC valuation instead of against the current assessed valuation. '. Mr. Qureshi -2- Jan. 21, 1974 ' 4. You will note that our adjusted maintenance cost is one of the ' very lowest in. the Twin City-Suburban area ($785. 74), Our percentage spent for adrninistration, 2, 47,%, is lower than ten and higher than three of the metropolitan districts with average ' daily membership between 5, 001 and 10, 000. ' 5. Our numerical staffing ratio of classroom teachers is 44 per thousand compared with the average figure of 43 for other metropolitan schools. � ' , 6, V�hile y�u have probably read many stories about many school districts unable to balance their budgets under the legislature's ri.gid levy lixnitations, our 1973-74 budget is in balance. We do not foresee �he prospect of any future borrawing, nor have we even discussed the possibility of calling for a referendumto lift our levy limits. At present we don't have this need. 7. We have not done any borrowing that would permit a very small � and tempqxary lower levy for Capital. Outlay. � ' � � � , , ' e � I hope the encl.osed budget and my comments will be of help to you.

Joseph Craig to the Metropolitan Sewer Board. As I am sure you are aware by now, the decision of reappointment has been delayed until the end of the legislative session. I would hope that you would convey your sentiments in the meantime to Mr. Jack Kozlak and Mr. James Dorr from whose district the initial recommendation will come regarding that particular vacancy.
