REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF OCTOBER 7, 1974 PAGE 3
proposal at tf�is time and he did not know about Councilman Starwait. Mayor Lieb1
said he had asked the Administratian to tell him what tt�e Armory would and
v��ould not do for the City of Fric�ley. Fle said this could be positive or negative; he
indicated he feit this wculd be positive. Fle also mentioned that th�is may give the
City of Fridley a youth center. Ne said the drill area could be used as a gymnasium.
Mayor. Lie�] �ointed out if approveds this would not be bui7t until 1976.
Mayor Liebl said he tv�uld be ask�ing the people of the City of Fridley an a door
' to door basis whai, iheir feelinys ar°e concern�ing such an Armory. He said he would
' see nothing varong ��•rith tl��e Armory if it v�ere t.sed in a proper organized manner.
He saia he ihought there is mcre than one issue, and he ��rould like the input of the
; members of the Council and ti�eir ideas on tl7e pros and cons of the Armory. He again
' mentic�ned if voted on at the current meetinq, i:hat this would be d�feated because
some of the members of the Council were undecided at the preserrt time.
Mayor Liebl again stressed that it would be proper at this time to gafn the input
of the various Civic organiz�tions in tl�z Cit,�. Mayor Liehl asked Counci7man Utter
to express his thought on this and said they would have to make some decision
before the encl o� the y�a�° and notify the f�lational Guard of this decision.
Councilman Ut{:PY� said he u�ould hate to live in this country if everyone opposed the
installation of an Armory in their Cii;y, there would not be too much defense.
Councir�an Utter said he felt ihe A�°mory would be an asset to i:he City of Fridley.
Councilman Utter further stated that he had talked to the people in the area and
they fe7t this would devalue their homes. He said he �vould oppose this 7ocation at
this time. .
Mr. Schnobrich addressed the Council and said he vdas a member of a comr,iittee at the
United P-1ei:hocJist Ch�erch in Fridley, and rather than see ail Arrnory begin constructed
in this a�°ea he would like to see i:he construction of a citizen's home.
h1ayor Liebl again mentioned if the Coun�il is not ready to make a decision at the
present time, there would be additional hearings i'or more input on this matter.
Councilman Ereider sa'id i�e had received a n�r.�ber of ca11s an the subject and many
people tjad raised good points. He said one �oint was that the peop7e of the community
would hate to be payirig the assessment for another building. He said they are paying
for County buildings, School buildinns, etc. Councilman Breider listed another reason
of concern being the area of the proposed site being near Locke Park. i•: said there
is some additional canstr�RCtion in �he area and i.)�e traffic prob7ems would be bound
to be gettinq more severe with if�e insi;allaticn of additional industr�ial development
on the adjacent praperties. Coun�i�man ��eidnr said he thought Edina I�ad looked at
a proposal such as this �nd rejected it. Counci�man �reider again mentioned ihe
amount of public buildings in the area and the amount of t�°aific in this specific
area. He questiened the possibility of establishing ihe Armory in a more northerly
suburb where ther.e is not much development at this time.
Councilman Starwalt said he had received many calls and statements from people concern-
ing this item and has heard many pros and cor�s. He said he vaas turned off by a certain
amour� of people who oppose the military anyvahere. Councilman Starwalt said there are
Armorys in many parts of the State and t�e has not run across any that were a detriment
to the City that it is housed in. He said the Armory is a credit to the com�nunity
it is located in . Councilman Stur4��alt said the Natioral Guard has not specifically
choosen Fridley for its location, it urould like to locate in a northerly suburb
and this could be Cor�n Rapids or Spring Lake Park. He said they would like to locate
in a community that they can 6e a welceme part of. Ne mentioned that sorne people
think the people of the City of Fridley would be tl�e solE supporter of the Armory,
but this is not true, the Federal and State �aould suppbrt th�is construction. He said
if the construction were in B7aine or another surr•ounding community, the people of
Fridley would likevaise be supporting the Armary Gvith the Federal and State tax dollars.
Councilmun Star«�alt said he believed that the amount of the �8,000, altliough being
a sizeable sum af maney, is not that great an amount in comparison to the amount
spent on the parks budget for the coming year ��hich arould be approximately one half
a million dollars. Councilman Starwalt said they were askinq a yearly sum of $5,000 to
$10,000 anci he did nut object to this. Courcilman Starwalt said he favored the Armory
concept, but agreed that this would have to be ai1•ed.

Mayor Liebl asked Councilman Star���alt if he agreed that the Council should obtain
some input from the o�•ganizations in the community.
Councilman Starwalt agreed with this. He sa9d the City should try again to obtain
some feed back. lie recalled that in the past it was mentioned that the Armory
would need five to seven acres of land, bui this had been madified to make a smaller
amount of land feasible.
Councilman P�ee saici he agreed ���ith Ccuncilman Breider about the locatian. He also
mentioned, the Kniohts of Columbus should be contactec� c�ncerning the traffic of
hall rentale Another factor he mentioned is that he did noi feel ihe community
supported the Armory and if they did su�part this, it may t�e different. Councilman
Nee sa�id h� ���ould r,�t object to ti�e input of m�t°e dialogue, He said he felt a few
people ���ere oppased because of the area because is in their neighborhood, but he
felt more people �vere just opposed.
Mayor Liebl asked Councilman Nee if he agreed arith the Chairman in that the Service
organizations should be contacteJ for th�ir input and i:hat more hearings on the
construction should be held, f�iayor Liebl said after this, a decision on the Armory
proposal could be given to th� National Guard.
Councilman f�ee said if anything should devela�, i:hey should be notified. He said
there should be extensive scuciy concerning the traff�ic af the propGSed areas, etc.
Councilman Utter szid he had talked to the people in the area and some of them felt
that ii an Rr•mory ��rere built in the area, this woiilcl be one way af obtaining a stop
signal. He said t4�is may be on::ti��ay to cet the scop light in there, but most of the
people felt that this a�ould 4�cr�ease the value uf their property. Counc77man Utter
said he agreed wit!i the people.
Mayor Liebl pointed out he had received a letter frosn tt�e Coverno�°, approximately
a year ago, and t{��e Governor and the people represeniing the Governor said it would
be a great asset i;o I�ave a meciical unit ;ocate i� the Ciiy of Fridley. Ma,yor Lieb]
said he «as t:o sell th� Council an:! the people af th� City of Frid1ey on the idea
of the cans�ructie,� of an Armory. He said he fe7t sGmeday the City would need it and
not have it. He said he felt a ver�� strong medical unit would be an asset to the
community. P?ayor liebl said he knew he ���as mak�r�5 many enemies in taking this stand,
but he is acting the F,�ay God gave him tl�e right to see th�+s matter.
t4r. He�ry Pete�°son, 6312 P9erce Si:. �. E�, addressPd the Council and said he thought
there is a need fa�° th� hame c,�uard. He t•ecalled at the tirne of the 1965 tornado, the
Guard v�as cal1ed ir to aid the local Pol�ice and F�re Departments. t°M1r. Peterson said
the pe�ple iri the Trailer Courts in the City t�;ould r�eed some shelter in case af another
disaster. Ne felc the Armory v:ou7d be an asset ta the Cit,y. Mr. Peterson asked
for � show a�` hand�, of those onposing the �ite vet°sus those opposing the construction
in the City. (Nct�: Ubservation was not possible to determine the number fa.voring
and opposing due to the scattered respori�e and the size of the audience.)

the busses. He felt the �;�,arly $3,OU0 for this period of time would build a fe��r
structures in the City of rt°idley. T;r. i�lai��rocki concluded his remarks stating he fe7t
the Council had a hot pota�o and asked Gvhy they did n�t let the people decide.

reascn �hat i;hey needed an Nrmory 4�euld he to take apart �trucks. He said this
cannot be ciorie �in f�inn�apolis hecause some members of the Guard steal. Mr. Scott
said in case of a hurricane, the Ar�mory t�rould n�t be suituL'le fez° use, it vrou7d
also be destroyed.
Mr. Scott continued his statemen� saying chere is a problem getting peop7e into the
Natianal Guard and this is nat bcca.use ch�re is a sl�orcage of buildings, this is
beca��se �h� men feel lil;c they are being trea�ed like an-imals in the Guard. He
stated peo;�le do rot �=rasrt to stay in the sei°v�ice. Ne saic if they would like to make
this seem ati:ractie�e, they sl?ould no�. n3~avide a building, th�ey shauld make the service

to hiin becat�se hz vlas so deeply involved, f1r. SdG041!Ski suid tile National Guard
program is de-n,ilitarization, not increased militarization. Mr, Sadowski recalled
over the ]ast 20 years, life has gone suburban, and it has beco;r,e the responsibility
� of the suUui°bs to pick up their share and welco!re the Guard. He said the home
', orqanization is ar!ned ard well equiped.
Mr. Sa.dowski v;ent on i;o state that the fuard would not cause any traffic problems
as they meet in rnass only one time per month. He added, the �uilding would have
a few full time employees.
Playor I_iebl ask�d p-ir. Sado�,��sl<i to address himself to the statement that the lvational
Guard treats p�onle like animals. Mr. Sado4rsl<i explained some ef the aspects wh�ich
atould make the se-rvice it� the Guard oifferent tha.n i�� the past, ore of which would
be thai: today there is a total volui�teer unit, and that it w�uld take all the peopJe
to try to make the unit work, and this ��rould take super leadership.

there would ba storage of machine guns and mace in t{ii� Armory. He referred to the
Bill of Rights, anc! said he was ��ot born in this ceuntry, he had chose it. He said
the City of Fridley does not need an (�rmory wif.h ��i-16 rifles or mace.
1�1r. Tom Reed, 6130 Stinso�� I�lvd., addressed ihe Co�u�cil and ouestioried the establishment
of a medical unit in the City of Fridley. Fie sa.id he is a resident of the City of
Fridley and meets at Fort Si�elling. Ne sai:l 4��i��a�� their unit is called in for a dri11
it is lucky if this is dore in four or five 'r�ou�°s. He saicl if the Armory is
establishec! � ti�e City of Fridiey, the members oi the units would not all be rrom
the City of Fridley. Ne said r.. t,�ould oppese thr-_ A�r�ory after seeiny ihe vray th�
tax dollars are spe�t at thc rese��ve cente�°, it makes him want to cry. He �nentioned
a few of t:he activities ti:�hich h� had seen arn_� said tl��is is not only done by the
enlisted inen, but a.lso the off�ic��°s. He said in the per•iod of six yef�rs there was
oniy or�e OCCdSi0i1 v;f�en they did any�hing civic rr�inded and this was one time urhen
they picked up gar•bace at For°t Sr,ellir�g Park. I•1r. Reed said he did ��ot believe

said he had jo�ineu ch� Guard vahen he ti���s 17 years old in northern f,1inr.esata, arrd
this ���as because this vaas a co,nmunity th�ing Gahic4� compared to a civic or social
organization. He said this unit ��ras r,ot too good miii�arily, but they cou7d be
compared i:o the Jaycees because of t;�eir service prajects. He �ug��ested if that
property is not used for the 7nstailaticn of thc Armory, he felt that it vdould
eventual7y become << rarking lot. He recall�d thai: ai4�r the 1965 tornado, it was
the Anoka Un�it that tras called ia Fridiey t.o ai�l tP�e pcop1e.

Upon a voice voi:e, ail votiny aye, f�laYor Liel�1 declared the motiion carried unanimously.
Mr. Langenfuld addr°essed t{�e Council and tt;anked the Counci1 for the allotted time on
the ager�da. Mr. Langenfeld said the members of the Commission �ould like to discuss
! hota the Environr.��ntal Qualicy Commission could be irore effective t�ithout enfringii�g
on other subcom�niti.ees witl�,�n the C�i�y. h1r. Langenfeld read Ordinance #520 establishing
' the Environ,nental Qualiiy Cc���n�ssion. (�ir. Lanc�em`eld expressed the vievr that all
items that affect the er,v�io°�n�r�ent in the City of ft�idley s}�ouid be revie�r,ed by the
Envit°onmerital Quality Cemmissian. f�e said if this is not made an effective group, they
i vsere w�zsting ever3�oi�e's iime. Ne said they had tried a few a,ays of ferreting out
information concerning the items they ��iould review on the�ir oE-+n.
Mr. Tho;nas Sullivan, m�mbcr of the Commissicn, add��essed tl�e Ceuncil and said he
would like �to speak for hirnself as a rnemb�r of l.he environmental Quality Commission.
He said 'rie is �11 ror tf7e L-nvirornnental Quality Commission and felt that this could
be an asset to i.he City c�` Fridley. He saici, but �here are tiii�es k���en he felt that
their Ce,nmi�sion has been left out. Iie said mosi, af the time the decision is made
and then the Comr�ission fi,�ds cut about it. P�ir. Su117van said the Commission rias no
in�ut to adv9se on matters. He siated their advic e in not sought and I�e wondered if
the time is ���ell spent on the Commission.
Mr. Robert Er;ckson, another member of the Environmental Quality Cemmission, addressed
the Co«nril and said he u�ould like to reiterate G•,hat the other mernbers of the Cemmission
had said. Mr. Ericksen ;aid they could oiily advic e �n those rnatters on which their
advise has beer� scught on and mast of the tin�e, Uy the cime they find out about
a mat±�er, the decis�ion has been made. He thought it was frustrating to sit on the
commission a�hen thet,e is not work to be done by it.
Mayot� Liebl recalled that the Commission had Ueen in existence for the past two
years. He asked the memGers of the Commission �if they �,�ould like to have some input
when decisions on deve1opmcnt or buildinys v�ould be pending. He asked if they wou7d
like sorne input and be allowed to advise on this type ofi rnatter.
Mr. Erickson said the Commission would like s�me input on environmental aspects.
� ' Mayor Lieb1 asked for a leyal apinion from the City P,ttorney concerning the directio�
� to ta{:e in this re�uest. �^ayor Liebl said the first input should be from the Cemmiss-
ion and the second step ���ould be action by the Cauncil. hiayor Liebl asked if the �
' Conmrission ��lould like additional power and input to the Courcil. He thought that
if more rnoney would be aliocated, th�is may 6e possible.
' The City llttorney said he thought the mcmbers a` the Environmental Quality Cor.�mission
� as well as uhe rnFmbers of i.he Council are aware thai: ifi there is any advance information, I

this would have to be obtained from the Administration. He thought if this is done,
the Planning Ue�ari;nent should f�rv:ard thesc -items to the Commission for an Environmental
Impact Statement. Ne said the Courcil is not atdare of t�rhat is being done until aTter
it has been reviea;ed k,y the Subccm�r;ittees.
Mrs. Lee Ann Sporre, 301 Ir•onton, addressed the Cour;cil and said she is a member of
the Environmental Quality Com!niss�iar and a�ould like �o reinforce what the oti�tr
members of the Con,mission had said. She said the Council receives the mir:utes of
the Commission befoi°e they ar•e a�proved by the Cor�;nis,�on. Mrs. Spoi°re questioned
Wll,y items are sent to th� [nvircnriental Qualiiy Co�nmission after i:he decision o n
the r��atter has been reached. P1rs. Sporre sited a.s an er.ainp�le i:he de��e7epmer,t of
Narris Lake Estates and said t��e City �nay have been in violation of State Law. Mrs.
Sporce said i,he memuers of the Com;�rission have ric�,de a sincere ei Fort to protect the
environrnent and they s�ould revic:t-,� related r��a�.ters before the Council reviews tl�iem.
She said those matters �rhich have a rnajor in�pact on the environment, the Commission
should review and suUn;it an impact s�tatemer�t cn.
Mrs. S�orre asl:ed if tiie Environmental Quali*,y Camm�ission ,lould have more po�-rer
under the current ot~dir�ance or ha.v�ing their Chairmar� a voting member of the Planning
Commiss�ion.
The City Attorney sa.id he did ret belie��e this u�rould make a��y difference in terms
of power. He said in botiz cases, the Council �-�culd be advised by the groups and
take the aciion as they see the maf:ter~. Thc City Attorr?ey said he i:houghc the
language of no��!er should not be use�, but t°ather a term suc}2 as effic�ency. Ne said
he thougt�t ihis was a problem in ccrl!1U111Cdi;1011. The City Attorney said he thaught
those wh� knew of a proy�used proj�ct iirst �s�auld be tt,e sta.ff at City Hal], and he
suggested that the Succ�-nmii:tees receive the overall details before ih� Counci7.
Mayor Lieb7 pointed out that if ihe r�anrer is �follov;ed where the Envirorm�ntal Quality
�-Commission would reviei-� each mati;e�° a1�a��g rritll the oii�er Subcommittees, this wou7d
take a long pE�riod of ti�„� to obt�in a buildinq permit a��c ��ould be additional
bureaucra.cy. Hc: saici this WOU�Q give the Plannino Ccmmission and Counci7 some
environm�ntal input. F,e said he thoUgilG the idf�Gs v,�ei°e �dell tahen. He sa;d the
Council would have to decide and askeci if they �vanted a niember to be seatecl on the
Planning Ccmmissian.
The City Rttorney saia he ���as not sure of which n�et"od ti7ey t�re,nted to pursue at this
time. fie said he would like to address th�is question to (ir. Langenfe7d.
Mrs. Sporre said the er,tire membei°shi� c�f tt�4 Environmer�al Quality Comm-ission felt
that the Counci.► ara th2 Cem:rissiori sl�:ould !n�c.t t�gether a.n� discuss these items.
Mrs. Sperre said she feli: the Envirans;iental Quality Cam;rission should be e�ual to the
Planning Co,nrnissian <
Co��t�cilit�an Sreider sa•id t�e bel ieved t;;e envirenmental impac:t statement shauld com�
before the matter is discussed by i:Pi� Plarr,ir�� Car�mission, they should mal:e their
recommendation in lin_,ht of this '�yp�� of reviev�. He said �efore the build�irig permi�
is issued, the Enviran:nen�Gl Quulity Caminission shculd s�udy this impacia
Councilman areider asked.the En�v�ironmental Q!�ality Coinmission memb�.rs if th�y Hiac1
done any wor�k on the area of ti�c Coon Rapic(s ;�ater bcing drairiec, into the tiortfi
Park site.
Mrs. Sporr� said tf,e State L�Nr requires tl�at t��e water c�nrot become wars� than it
it. She further stai:ed tl��at this ���oultl l7e based on quality no4 quan�ity. She
explained thai they had taken it upon themseivES ne� by reco.nrr�datian of the Council,
but by their own initia�ive.
Councilman Starwalt asked if the method o� bcaing a non-voting me�i�ber of th� Plar,n�ir�g
Commission was helping some. Mr. Lanc�enfelcl said some peo�1e fe�t �hat this is not
�vorking because the Env-iroi7menta'i Quality Cc�mmiss:an uid i-icat have the citizen's input
lil<e the Pl�nning Com;nissicn dc�es.

Report Regarding Pxoposed Armory
Attached for your consideration is a report regarding a suggested
site, available facilities and a cost analysis pertaining tcs a proposal
for construction of a N�.tional Guard Armory in the City of Friciley.
The report is prepared.in response to the instr.uctions of the Council.
at the meeting of July 15, 1974.
From the �esu.lts of our investigation, it woitld seem that th�
proposed armory could provide both municipal and civic uses, with the
proposed site being the City owned property between the Columbia Tce
Arena and the City l�ar.icipal Garage.
The 1973 construction costs for the armory in Hastings, Dfi.iinesota
were adjusted to provicle an estimate of tl�e construction costs for
1977. (1977 being the year � proposed arTnory coulci be constructed
if the proposal is accepted).
The estimated armory construction costs would result in an annual
cost to the City of Fridley of $7,780 per year £or a twentiy year
period.

REPORT REGARDING A SUGGESTED SITE, AVAILABLE FACILITIES AND COST ANALYSIS
PER1'AINING TO A PROPOSAL FOR CONSTRUCTION OF A NATIONAL GUARD AFiI�10R'Y IN Tf-IE
CITY OF FRIDLEY
INTROD� �CTION :
This report is prepared in response to the instructions of the City Council as
indicated in th.e minutes of the Council bleetin� oi 3uly 15, 1974. The report is
based on an investioation of available City ocvned property to determine a pos-
sible axmory site, an inspection of an existing arniory t;o determine if the
basic armory facilities can be of municipal and civic use� and review of actual
construction costs to determine �uture construction costs with Estimated annual
City cost t.a prov�_de an armory facility.
The construction of a National Guard Armory is basically Federal and State
Government in nature. The Federal Government must be assured that the primary
use of the building and site is military. After the certain primary objectives
of the buildi.ng are met, other �eatuxes which a municipality might desire are
added to the building whose construction is coordinated by �he Uepartment of
Military Affairs, an agency o£ �he State of biinnesota.
SUGGESTED AR2�.ORY SITE:
The basic site requirements for the construction of an armory is a parcel of
propert}• approximately 350 feet by 350 feet (2.8 acres�. After reviewing all
City owned praperty a suggested site for a pro�osed armory is �he 2Q0 ieet wide
parcel of property located bet��een the Columt�ia lce Arena and the Municipal
Garage (see attached map as enclosure #1). This property has been inspected by
the National Guard persannel and a favorab�.e.respanse was noted. The suggested
site is lacated i.n an area where it appears the construction of an armory would
have a minimum environ»enta], impact on the adjacent properties. �
Due to the number of yea-r:, required to process construction of an armory, it is
diffi_cult to predict tivhai property may be avialable at the ta.me actual construction
will ta}.e place. T}�erefore, to proceed cvith the proper. scheduling of construction
of a proposed armory, those conununities interested in the proposal are being
rec{uested to execute a resolution of intent. The resolutiori of intent basically
reserves a parcel of property and allows for the planning and budgetin� of the
project. iyit}� an appropriate resolution of intent, commitment in regard to a
programmed year for the first armory to be built in the Diinneapolis suburbs has
been indica�ed which could allow construction to proceed with the City of Fridley
in fiscal year 1977.
In order to develop the site for a proposed armory building and subsequent
parkino area without removal of a majority o� the existing txees, Anoka County
4ras cantiacted to deterniine the possibility of an agreemen� for joinL- use of
parking facilities at the Co,lumbia lce Arei�a. Discussi.ons with the /lnoka County
Parks and Itecreation Depar.tment intiicated tllat an agreement could be. arranoed since
a proposed acldition to the existing ice areria tiaould result in a paxking area w}zich
would lend itself to mutual use. f1n appropriate agreement would be prepar.ed on].y
if the Ci.iy proceedecl with construction of an armory.

Report on National Guard Armory
AVAI LABLE ARI�IORY FACI LITIES :
-2-
9-12-74
The attached floor plan (enclosure #2) indicates the facilities ►vhich would b�
available with construction of a typical armory.
An on-site investigation of the existing ar.mory in I-tastings, N9innesata was made
by several oi the City af Fridle;� staff to determine the extent of municipal
use of the armory faczlities.
�
The areas available for public and civic use on a rental basis ale a 7,000
' square foot drill floor which could be used f.or atliletics, dances, and other
similar activities. TIIe sr�all hall (approximately 1,350 square £eet} is iinished
much like the City of Fridley community room or cl.assroom and has portable
' dividers that break it into three separate a�ooms. This area could be used for
classrooms, summer activities, wedding receptions, etc.
'
'
'
,
'
�
The kitchen zs Iarge enough to serve such things as weddings and other hanquet
activities. The rzfle range was indicated to have been built to withstand the
impact of rifle bullets or a.357 pistol,�similar to those used by the Fridley
police ofiicers.
The armory would certainly duplicate some af the school facilities that presently
exis�, ho�vever, the armory facility would have more la�ti_tude in its rental
availability, in that lic{uox and beer can be dispensed, bingo, flea markets,
apparatus and vehicle shows could be arranged which ivould not lend themselves
to a school structure.
Additional facilities as desired by tl�e municipality could bz incoxporated in
the construction of the armory.
ESTIh1ATED AFL'�IORY CONSTRUCTION COSTS =
1'he construction af the arrnoxy itself will be coordina�.ed by the Minnesota
State Arriory Commission. State �aws provide for the building, establishing the
bonds and retiring of the bonds. The tatal cost of t}ie basic armory is shaxed
by the federal government, state government and local government on the
following basis: ,�
Federal Government - 750
' State Government - 1�0 (400 of remaining 250)
Local,Government - 15% (60 0 of remaining 25%)
Any additional features added to the basic armory which could be used by the
National Guard would be paid for at the ratio mentioned above befiween the
state and local gavernments.
I' Present typical costs for construction of an armory axe approximately $500,OQ0
with the state and local government cost approximately $150,000. To get a more
realistic idea of the cost breakdown, the cost of the exi.sting armory a_n Hastinbs,
Atinnesota which was constructed in 1973 are qifered for. consideration:

In order to provide construction costs which would be anticipated for Fridley �.n
the year 1977, the 1973 costs of the Hastin�s armory are adjusted using the
Engi_neering News-Record index for the past five years. This index indicates an
average of 90 per year increase in construction costs over the period from 1968
to 1973. Assuming the rate of increase does not change, this 90 per year

The above estimated costs for 1977 construction of an armory were reviewed by
the City of Fridley Finance Department. Based on the estimated City share of
$91,373.43 calculations were made �o determine an annual cost for the City of
Fridley. If we assu••�:e an averaoe interest rate of 6.70, the interest cost over
a twenty year period ��ould be appraximately $64,207. This� added to the principal
of �91,373 �vould ma ke an average annual payment on principal and interest of
�7,750. The S�ate Armory Building Commission maintains the building and there-
fore no annual maintenance costs are anticipated.
Discussions wiih NationaX Guard per.sannel concerning the funding concept used in
building axmories indicated that the Minnesota State Armory Building Commission,
a corpoxation, has been set up b}r 1aw specifically t.o provide for tl�e building
and £inancing oi armories. 'I'he Arm�_�;r Conunission will issue the necessary
bonds and the City of Fridley would turn its annual payments over to the Building
Commission: T'his means that it will not be necessary for the City to issue its
own bonds for the project. It was further stated that the maximum the State can
contxibute towards the funding of the az�nory is $6,000 per y�ar. This has
recently been raised from a previous amount allotiaable.
S Ui�LMARY :
' From .the foregoing discussian, the praposed armory could provide additional �
facilities f.or municipal and civic use with a suggestecl site on the City owned
property between Columbia lce Arena and the City of Fridley Municipal Garage.
� The annual cost to the City of Fridley for construction of an armory is esti-
mated to be �7,780 over a twenty year period.

facility so the parking facilities could be shared. Councilman Breider asked if
the building could house additional space for the ice arena. t•ir. Moeglein said he
did not krow if this had been looked into in the past. Councilman areider said if
this were done, the peripheral space could be used by both•groups and he used the
locker area as an example. He continued stating he looked at the capital outlay
for one building, and if tax dollars could by used together this ��ould be a savings
for the tax payer. Mr. Moeglein said this had been done in the town of 7racy, they

Mr. Richard Young 5695 QUincy Street N. E., said the facility could be used for the
firearm safety program. He added, currentiy they are transporting the young people
to Anoka for this. .
htr. Moeglein said a part of this facility, the garage, could be used for such a
pragram. Ne added, the facility may only handle 22 caliber guns.
Mr. Young asked if the facility would have any benefit to the Police Department.
Mr. Darrel Clark, Con�nunity Deve7opment Administrator, said in the information received
from Co1, John W, Hohncke, Military Architect and Engineer, the specifications had
been changed and would withstand a high powered caliber.
Mr. Dennis Schneider, 6190 Stinson Blvd. N. E., addressed the Council and asked the
Council how a facility like this 4rould be avai7able to the City. Mr. Moeglein
answered that the guard training would involve one rreeke�d per month, the balance
of the time, the facility wauld be avai7abie for general use.
Councilman Utter presented Mr. Schneider a proposed schedule of renta) fees for the
proposed Armory.
Mr. Schneider said the rental would range from $15 to $90 depending on fihe type of
use. He asked if the actual buiiding costs would be paid by the City of �'ridley.
Mr. Moeglein said this tctal amount had nat been pinpointed, but the Hastings Armory
could be used as an example of the percentages of payment. Ne said the State and
local City funding in this case totaled $]31,000. He explained the buildinq would
be bui7t by the Armory Building Comn�ission who would float the bonds. He further

month which would not exceed $5,000.
Mr. William Scott, 1632 69th Avenue N. E., addressed the Council stating he was a.
retired soldier and indicated he spoke against the Armory. Mr. Scott said he
believed this would be a thi°eat against the community and a military encroachment.
He a7so stated he thought this would be a target for radical elements in our
Community whether there taas storage of miiitary eguipment or nct. He said he
believed in 7965 the Police from the l�cal community responded much faster than any
other element in the community and they were supplimented by the Guard at a later'
time. He pointed out at the time of the ]965 tornado, the Columbia arena was not
availab7e for use, it was not there, Mr.. 5cott further co�rmented, he was scared
of the military and this is why he had got out, and he did not want it back. .
Councilman Utier said he had received a ca11 from Rnaka Caunty Casrumissioner, Mr.
Mike 0'Bannan, who indicated he thaught the Armory would be an asset to the co�nmunity.
He indicated if there is ever a need fnr this land to be defended, the people shou7d not
aiways depend on those in another area to do it. He said when the tiii�e comes to
protect ihe citizens, Fridiey should not depend on a unit from Minneapolis to ccme out
and help them, Councilman Utter said he thought the Armory could be useful to the
� City and also an advantage to the City. .
Mr. Ed Wilmes, 0350 Riverview Terrace, stated at the recent Flag dedication ceremony,
the Mayor was present. He indicated the on7y way to get something done wauld be
by getting involved and participating.
Mr'. Kenneth Sporre, 301 Ironton St. N. E., questianed the cosfi factor at Nastings.
He asked if the State and City responsibility would be $131,000 and asked if this
would be a 50/50 split. Mr. Clark, Co�ununity Deve7opment Administrator said this
had been 60/40 in Hastings. Mr. Sporre further questioned who provided the land.
Mr. Moeglein stated the community would donate the land. Mr. Sporre said then, this
couid be added to the cost factor of the City.
Mr. Sporre asked how many communities in the seven county metro area had been approached
w�th this type of proposal for an Armory, and how many favor the proposal. Mr. Moeglein
said 6loomington is very interested in the proposal, he added, two cornmunities did
not have the land available, and could not construct one.
Mr. Sporre asked if any other sites than the one by the Ice Arena had been discussed,
Mr. Clark said there are two other alternative sites, one on Rice Creek Road
east of Old Central next to the 7-11 Store where there are three tax forfeit lots
the City has acquired. Ne explained these lots arc large lots or about 375 by 300
feet each.

PUBLIC HEARING MEETIN� OF 3ULY 8, 1974 ' PAGE 6
Nirs. Shirley Caldwell asked if ihe Rice Creek site were used, where would the
parking be. Mr. Clark said it�touid be difficult to determine the amount of people
that would be using the building, he did not believe the area would take 800 cars.
Mrs. Caldwel7 asked if the area in the Locke Park area would be arr encroachment on
the park property. Mr. Ciark said the area would be between the Columbia Arena and
the City garage and not in any part of Locke Qark.
Mrs. Caldwell questioned if Mr. Moeglein`s office would change managers, wou7d there
be a procedurai change. She fiurther questioned if the point of the City ownership
be changed, or would there be some change in the City having any say about this
charge. Mr. Moeglein said the rental charges in al1 of the Armorys in the State
are the same.
Mrs. Lee Ann Sporre questioned how the Council would maY.e the decision. She asked
if the Environmental Quality Gommissian wauld have any input on where this Armory
wou7d be. She added, to this point in time, they had not been asked.
Mr. Dennis Schneider asked what interest, if any, is�there by New Brighton on the
proposal that an Armory be located in that City.
Mr. Moeglein said he had r,at made contact with the people at New Brighton, so he
was not able to say. He said at this time, the Arinory represeniative had only met
with the Planning Commission and he did not know the outcome of the meeting.
Mr. Peter Truenfels, 5245 Horizon Drive, said he �vas glad that the Counci7 �vas
having the Public Hearing in k•rhich the costs could be discussed. He questioned the
arrangement of payment of the tiastings Armary for the payrrent of the $131,000.
Mr. Moeglein stated the $131,000 was paid by the Cammunity and the State over a
period of eight years. He also pointed out that the Ciiy �las able to sell the old
building in the amount of $60,000 which coni:ributed ta the price of the nevr construction.
Mr, Truenfeis said this did not tell the peopie much about ti+hat ii wau7d cost the
people of the City of Fridley. � � .
Mr. Moeglein said it wouid be difficult to rail dawn a figure.
Mr. Truenfels asked if any other community had bui7t an Armory that did nQt have
a bui7ding to sell� perhaps this would be a better indication of ihe coste
Mayor Liebl stated he thaught it would cost $9,000 a year for the period of 30
years, hfr. Truenfe7s asked if the total �rould be $270,Od�.
Mr. C7ark exp7ained the only change that wauld take p7ace �n Hastings is tha�
they sold the building, they were onl,y under an eight year mortgage rather than
a 30 year mortgage. ��e said there would be same addition for inflation.
Mayor Liebl said they would not want to put an Armory in a residential area. He
further stated there wou7d have to he adequate parking facilities.
Mr. Moeglein said the State contribution w�uld not oniy be the $5,000, the cost
of maintenance per year would be in the area of from $12,000 to $14,000.
Ms. Jaan I�cLaughlin, 728 63rd Avenue N. E, thought there was more to being patriotic
than the construction of a military Armory. She added this would be just as effective
to establish a natural area or a teen center.
' Councilman Nee questioned the geopraphic draw of such an Armory if it was located
i in Fridley. He asked if this would ir�valve young people from Coon Rapids and Blaine.
j Mr. Moeglein said yes and alse New Brighton.
i
iCouncilman Nee askeci what the contribution to the Canmunity would be. Mr. Moeglein
� said it would provided many social activities. He said this wou1d be an active part of
I the corrmunity with additional income being spent in the City. He pointed out that the
Guardsmen drarr more income at the present time and there are also more people going on
to higher education through their plan. He said it would also provide facilities for
safe gun handZing. }!e said this cou7d be used as a community center and be an active
installation.

Mr. Sobiech said the site requirements are 35Q feet by 350 feet or a total of
2.8 acres. He mentioned a possible site is the 2�0 foot City owned strip of
property between the Columbia Arena and the City Garage. It would be possible
that the nursery area could be extended and said that Fre had talked to Anoka
County about the sharing of the garage facilities. He mentioned rather than
take the area with many trees for parking, the joint use could be investigated,
Mr. Sobiech referred to Page 11-F ofi the agenda and pointed out the layout of
the Armory in Hastings as visited by members af tf�e City of Fridley staf�F. He
said the drill hall is 7,000 square feet in area and has a kitchen area which
could be used for weddings, shows and banquets. He said �here is alsa a class-
room which could be used for munieipal and civic functions. The Public Works
Director said there would be same duplication of the schaol facilities, but.
at the schools there will be no beer allowed or the playing of bingo, etc.
The Public Works Director called the Council's attention ta Page 11-C of the
agenda on which the various cost factors were listed for the Armory. He
pointed out that he had used the figure of 9% per year as the amount for the
infla�ion figures. He said this would bring the total cast in 1977 to
$609,156.21 with the City's share of this total to be $91,373.43 or a total
of $7,780 per year.
Mayor Lieb1 said the Governar had asked him to try to get a medical unit in
the City of Fridley. He continued, the Governor had stated that any unit
would be good for the City of Fridley.
The City Manager said there would also be a commitment for the price of the
' land and financial help. The City Attorney added that this would take a simple
majority vot� to pass this type of resolution.

Mayor Liebl stated he is in favor of the Armory. Councilman Utter mentioned
that the County had made some plans to expand the Ice Arena, and he questioned
which way this construction would run in this area. The Public Works Director
said that this would have no effect on the construction.
Mr. Clement F. Wall, 686Q 7th Street N.E., addressed the Council and said that
he had been a member of the National Guard for the past }.3 years and had
also been a resident of the City of Fridley. He said he had been wiped out
in the May 6th tornado of 1965. Mr. Wall said he had read in the Sun that the
Armory proposal would be discussed at the present meeting. He also indicated
he had read some of the other comments made at the previous meetings of the

Mr. Muh�_ch said he had contacted the o�mers of 66 lots of the

Mr. Drigans asked Mr_. Muhich the pur_pose of_ this rezoning request.
Mr. r5uhich said he �aan�Led to move a house onto the two lots he owned.
Chairman Fitzpatric)c said that since 1969, we haven`t allowed
any R-1 use of industrial property. It Fyas allowed befo�e that.
Mr. Drigans asked if this area �aas zoned R-1, how many sites wou�d
be le��t to build hom�s on. Mr. C1a��Y said that with Mr. Muhich`s
property, thcre woul.d be four sites lcft.
Mr_ . Dr�.gans asked wh_y it vras d�_sallo�aed to 1et an R-1 dwe11} ng
to l_>e built in ari a�-�a like th.ise Mr. C1_ail; sa.id it was the feeling
that if you have commercially zoned proper�y, commercial should be
buil_� i.here, and if i�s zoned indust.rial, it should be built industrial.
This �,�as to preven.t the intermixing of residential with commercial ar:d
111Ci.1]atrial proper_ty� Nr. Fitzpatr.ick said that prior to 1969, it was
felt: that you couldn't build up in a zoninq district, but you could
bui7_d do�an. R-1 was � liow�a �n any district, for instance.
' Mr_. Harris sa�_d if he read the code right, Mr. Muhich could put
this house on his property with a Special Us� Permit, as an alternate
to r�zoning.

this area ��ith the property that was still. vacant.

Planning Commics�on A�ee3 ing - September 25, 1974 Page 4_ 4 C
Mr. Dri_gans wonder.ed about having a small busin�ss in an area
that has a r.esic3ential atmosphere. Mr. Benson said there was a
machine shop right acxoss the street, so he didn't thinlc his wanting
to use his garage for a business was going to make that much difference.
Mr. Drigans asked Mr. Benson if he built his house or purchased
it after it was built. Mr. Benson said the house was already there
when he purchasea it, and one of the main reasons he bought this house
was because it was zoned M-l. He was looking for a house that wasn't
in residential zoning, and this vaas just what he�wanted.
Mr. Harris asked Mr, Clark ��hat the City`s policy would be in
rezoning pr.operty aga3_nst the propexty owner's will� Mr. C1ark said
he ciidn` t thinl: -i=his t�ad been done. He would assume it rould be done,
but the property cwner could take it to court and whether this would
stand up there, or not, he didn`t know.
Mr. Driqans wondered if a Special Use Permit could be g�anted to
Mr. Benson so he could have this business in his garage if his proPeYty
was rezoned. N�r. T-Iarris said we �ori't have a request for this. T�ir.
Lindblad asked i.f Mr. Benson could meet the requirements for a bus�.ness
in his garag� if tliis area stayed M-l. Mr. Clarlc said he would meet
the requirements undex M-1 zoning. If the rest of the block caas rczoned
to ]z-1, he wouldn`t meet the setback requi_iement of 15 feet, but as
this i� an eYisting structure, this wouldn`t be necessary.
Mr. Clark said that according to the zoning code, if Mr. Benson's
praperty stayed A�-l. and the balance of the block was rezoned to R-1,
if P�ir. Benson`s prope�ty was destroyed, he wouldn't be able to meet
the 50 foot s�tback requiremen�l_ for r•2-1 zoning ir.om P,-1 proper.ty, so
he �aoul_di�'t b� able to rebuild his home, or industrial, �1ii�hout r.ezoning
or with a variance. He said that from a pl�nning standpoint, it
�aould be b�tter to have the entire bl.ock ���-1 x�Laned rather th�n l�ave
twa lots N-l. Nr. Pa.rris said that ti�as why he felt that leaving t2�ese
two lots M-1 �aouldn't create any probl.ems, becaus� this situation
cauld resolve ii�sel.� in time.
Air. Clark said he rzas st�.ted Ue�o.r_e that he thought Mr. Benson
cou1�3 ha��e a cabine�. shop or oth�r business in his garage as long as
his property is zoned M-1. He said he hadn't been able to checic this
out ��: ith the City Attorney . There niight be sometlZing in the code
that says uri�.en th� princa.pal_ use of the pr�perty is residentiaJ_, you
can't use �he garage as industrial property, but this would have to
be check�d out. . .
Mr. Hairis said he personally is aqainst rezoning any property
against �the owner`s will. AZr. Fitzpatric}c said thi_s request was
ora.qinated by a private paity for rezonii�g t.his area, and was not
initiatcd by the City for publ_i.c pu�poses. This makes a difference
alsa. A�r. Harris said we liave a peti.i:ion signed by all thc owners of
tht � proper-�y, except the property owned by i�Ir. Benaon. Thx_s te11s me
tha�L all the other property own�rs want their proper_ty rezoned ta R-1.

property in this B1ocY 4, and he doesn'� und�rstand how Mr. Benson's
property could have been included in this request, when he doesn't
want the r_ezoning. Mr. Clark said that when Mr. Muhich wanted to
rezoi�e the tcao lots he owna, it was f.e.li� that as th� entire neighborhood
was r�sidential, ��e would set up t�he Public Iiear_ing for the entire
M-1 area. Mr. Nuhich went out and talked to everyone in this area,
and found out that they �-a��e all in favor of this rezoning, except
for Mr. Benson. That was the purpos� o� the Pu}�lic Heai.ing. Tn�hen
I�1r. IIenson voiced his objection a-� th� first mee-f:ing, wa� when the
P1ann.i_ng Comma_ssi.on asked �or a petition on this request, to make sure
that all the af�ect-ed property ocane�-s «�re a�aare of the rezoning con--
sideration. At this Public Hearii�g, P�Ir. Bensan stated his objections
to having,his property rezoned. Mr. Cl.ark said that i� Mr. Muhich
woul.d have asked for rezoning on just the t.wo lots he awned, that
woul.d have really been spot rezoning, which isn.`t very desirable either.
Ch�ir.man Fitzpatr_ ick said what �ae have iri effect is a req�;est for
rezo��ing from all the property owiZers �aitl� the exception of I�Sr. Bensan.
M.r_ . Lindbl.�d asr;.ed ii� Mr. Benson could add on to his house� or
garage as long a� his p�-operty was zoned M--1? Mr. Clark said he
cauldn't add on to the hause, except he could make -the inside morc
livable, and if rie wanted i:.o add on -to the garag�, this would x'equ? r�
a va.riance, bECause the present garac�e is closer thzn 15 feet from
t.he property lin�.
h7re Harris aslLed A�r. Muhich if he had ai�y pictures of the house
he wariL-ed to move :i_nto Fr_idley. Nre I�iuhich presented the pictures.
A2r. Clark said this has been approved by the �uildin.g Si:andar_ds-Dcsi�n
ControJ_ Subcommittee, sul:�ject to the rezoning beir�g approvede D4r�
Harris said he tYiougl�t this hoixse ��ould fit in quite well in this � ai �a �
Chair_man Fitzpatxick said that he i�lt that b�r, Lenson's point tl�at
his pro��rty had some industriul use, oaas a lec�itim��e one. Mr�
Iiar.ris said it is his pi-operty, a�:d he did buy i�c because it was zon^d
i�'i--1. Mr_. L'it�p�.trick said he agr_e�c� with �ir. I�arris, that h.� d�dn't

as a permanent structure.
Mr. Harris said he understood that.sewer and wa�er were already
available on this property. Nr. Drigails asked i� this office was
in tlie same location whexe Amexican Auto Listings had theirs. Mr�
Rotter said no, it would have to be extended over �o his office
location. -
Mr. Rotter sai.d he will have sev�n mobile homes on the site.
He planncd to have them eight feet apart, but has Loom to make them
10 f_-eet apart, if necessary. He said the office will be 24' x 36'.
Evei-ythi.ng within the dotted line wi11 be blacktopped. He said
he would have crushed rock ur�der the trailers, because they damage
blacktop if they ar_e stoxed on it. He said they have a tendency to
sin};., so this is why crushed rock is used.
Mr. Drigans askeci Mr. Rotter what kind of arrangements he had
made «ith'the property o�rnerF would this be a lease or would he be
buyi_ng the property? Mr. P.otter said he thought it would be a lease
with option to buy, but they haven't even discussed the lease as yet.
He �ranted to wait and see if this Special Use Permit would b� approved,
and wha-� stipula�.ions would be put on it.
Mr. Fitzpa.trick asked if this special use �aas approved, how long
a lE�ase would hc be loolcing for. Mr. Rotter said he thought for
about t}iree year_s. He said he didn't plan to start up this business
until spring, becau.se money was tight, and he l�new the winter months
were bad months for this business, from experience.
Mr. T3arris asked Nr. Rotter if he had a copy of the agreement
that had been drawn up bett-�een the Ca_ty and another operator of a
mobi_1e r�ome salcs. Mr. i2otter said he� did. This agreemen� for
the mobile home sales lot at 7151 Highwav ff65 �aas discussed by mem}�ers
o� the Planning Coz:lmi_ssion and tlze petitianer, and f_rom this discussian
the stipualations f�r_ this specia]_ use p�rmit were determined.
Some of the member.s qu�stioned having a yearly review of this
pernli�.. Mr. Clar}c said that A2r. Rotter would b� expecte.d to spend
a]_ot o� money �or the blacktop area., and he wouldn' t feel like
makinq a bic� capitol �nvestment if this permit cou7_d be revoked in

faii°er to the petitioner. Mr. FIarris said that this Special tlse Permit
could start irom the time the petitioner signs the lease or purchase
agi-c�ement, which ever_ he has. Mr. llrigans said he wanted this Special

Plannin� Commission Mecting - Sep�_ember 25, 1974 Pag� 9 4 H
Mr. Driqans asked N!r. Clarlc what method the City used to check
out sti.pulations to �ee that they are complied with. Mr. Limdblad
said there ��aas u54�a11� � perf�rmance bond requested to insur_e that
every thing would be done. Mr. Drigans said that �nswered his question.
' 3. DISCUSSION
Mr. Drigans said he had a couple of things he wanted to bring
' up at this me�ting.
One was that he would like the Planning Cai�u_ssion to receive
' a copy of the Armory report and -�he letter_ fram the American Legion
that �•.as m�ni:ianed in -Lhe Council Agenda. Mr, Clark said he ��rould
see that the Planning Commission got copies of this.

Th� other thing AZr�.: �Di�.igaiis wanted was �o check and see i� the
Planning Conunission could have a tour of General Television. He
said they had mention�d this at a meeting some time ago, and wou�d
like to }�now how the Planning Commissioxz and other_ governmenta.l l�odies
could use this medium. Mr. C1ark said he would try and arrange this
tour.
Mr. Harris said he,didn`t know if i� had•became a p�oblem in
Fridley, but he has not�d in othe.r communities, that there is a
prob�.ern with some oi this screening of refus� containers. He said
the idea is fine� but a lot o� the time there isrl'�. room for the
garbage trucks to c��t in and pick up the r�fuse, and the screening
is subsequently d�maqed and loolcs worse Lhat what they are trying tp
scr_eenA
Mr. Clark said that one of the pr_oblems they have is that the
code says the refuse a�ea has to be screened �ram public view. Wh.at
is t]-�e public vi�c��? One case in point is the back o�.. o€ the �stores
in Moon P1aza. They all have stoxaqe at the back o� their kiuild�ngs,
but the public can dr.iv� bacY: therc too. The solution would be to
have a screenii�g f_ence all al.ang the back of_ thc bu�:lding , but they
don't have too much room bacic there now.
I�ir. Fitzpatrick saic3 he agreed with Mr. Harris that he had seen
some scrc�eninc� tlzai� loolced worse than what-they were trying to sereen.
Mr, Ha�-ri_;; said the way these reiuse truc:xs �aork, you ai�«�st nave
to J_e�a�re an� scction apen, so you only hzve screening on th.ree sid�s.
The secti_on l�ft open �,Tauld usually be on the alley or street side,
so he really couldn't see what ��as being accomplished. Mr. Lindblad
said that it �,Tas a probl.em, but he thought screening was a better
solt�tion than leaving these areas completely open.
Mr. �Iar.r_is said he just wanted to bring this�to the attention o�
the 1'lanninc� Cornmission.
Mi. Jer.rold Boar_dman stopped in at the meeting to m�ntion that there
was a seminal- on commui�ity developmei�t tl�iat woul.d be h�ld at Normandale
Col].egc, and he ��;ould apprecia�Le it if any members of th� Planning
Commission wisr� to attend, they woutd let him knaw so reservations coul_d

Leonard Lind, Nicci Nee, Katherine �oss, and Walt Lizakowski
MEMBERS ABSENT: Harriet Hudrlik, Rena Vizenar, Caro1yn Rouse, Karen Packer,

Hansen
Cha�rman Belgum opened the meei�ng at 7:35 p,m.
MOTION BY DAN FISH TO AGCEPT THE MINiiTES QF ?HE JULY MEETING. Seconded by
Grace Lynch. Upan a voi�ce voie, the mot7an carried unanimous7y.
FIPJANCE COMMITTEE REPORT
Dan Fish said he had talked w�th Marvin Brunsell about four �veeks ago concerning
the Human Relations budget for 1975. Dan Fish outlined the proposed budget.
A few changes in the estim�tes were added to the budget and Dan Fish said he
would get in contact with Mr. Brunse]1 within a short time. Copies �f the
budget will then be mai7ed to �11 members.
MOTION BY WALT LIZAKObJSKI TNA7 THE NUMAh RELATIONS CON�MISSION SUBMIT THIS
BUDGET REQUEST TO MARVIN BRUNSELL, Upon a voice vote, the motion carried
unanimously.
G�N�RAL GISCUSSION
Mr. Belgum asked comments from members of the Commission 9n regards to what
the Cammission should work with. Some of the comments were in favor of workinq
with the youth of Fridley, such as setting up a youth cebiter. Mr. Be]gum said
he would like to see the Commission monitor v,�hat the Fridley schools are doing.
Connie Price was present at the meeting, Director of the Community Service
Division for the State Human Rights. Connie said she had wcrked with Human
Rights and Human Re7ations Commissian's all over the state. She had found in
her studies that some of the outside areas are more active than those in the
metropolitan areas. Many �f the Commission's lacked definition of their role.
She stated that Winona has a very active Commission, They have divided their
Commission up into several committee's to work on szparate causes, such as
education, housing, etc. Winona gets press coverage at thei.r monthly meeting
and this aids them in getting through to the public. They maintain a leve7 of
continuity.
Some of the members on the Human Rights Committee are also on the school b��rd.
Between the school board they are able to direct and promote good human
re�ations in the schools and to the students.
Mr. Belgum felt it would be interesting to inquire our school board on intercu7t�iral
education. Nicci Nee said they presently do have intercultural educatian.

Connie Price said there had been a state wide conference in Apri] in Minneapolis
in an effort to pull together'var7ous human relations groups a71 over the state.
This will be held again ihis �ear and they enceurage all Commission members
to participate.
Mr. Belgum asked how they cou7d be made more aw�re of the events going on?
Connie Price said they are tentatively working on a calendar of events.
Corinie Price said Rosevilie was promdting an effort in human relations that
would involve their school director, City administration, and their Human
Relations Commission. Th7s will be'he7d at Rosedale Center on October 25.
This program had been started by the school director.
Mr. Belgum suggested contacting the Spring Lake Park and Columbia Heights
' Hurnan Re�ations' Commissions. Poss7b7y they migh-t be interested in a three
community activity.
Dan Fish asked if some of the more active committee's have a more narrow
scope? Connie Price said that somehave a wider scope too. One of their
ma�in functions is goad communication with government o-fficials. She said
that Bemidji did not even have a Commission.
Mr. Belgum said it was the Commission's charge to "promote amicab7e human
relations in the City of Fr�dley": Connie Price said they cou7d follow the
Hur��an Rights Act.
Mr. Belgum questioned whether there was a difference in why some Commission's
were ca]1ed Human Relations and others Human Rights? Cannie Price said it
depends on the wording. New Hope dec�ded on 1-iuman Rela�ions because in their
community Numan Rights had a negat�ve stand.
Connie Price handed out pamph7ets on the Minnesota Human Rights Act. She
said ano�her factor the State Commiss�on is taarking on is the equality of
ath7etic prograins for girls and women.
Mrs. Lynch said her subcommittee has their information to present to the ,
Cornmission when a quorum is present. Mr. Belyum read out 7oud a letter sent
froin Mr. Cushing. Mr. Be7gum asked Grace Lynch if she could contact Mr. Cushing
before th� October meeting.
Mr. Fish said he had attended the State Legis7ature Task Force and wou7d
present a report on this by the next meeting.

CHARTER COMMISSION
September 24, 1974
MEME3E�dS PRESENT: Ray Sher�dan, Elaine Knoff, Robert 0'Nei17, Roy McPherson,
Jackie Jahnson, Herbert Bacan, Edythe Collins, 07e Bjerkesett,
and Jerry Ratcliff e
MEMEE�S ABSENT: Peg McChesney, Donald Wegler, Francis Casey, Harry Crowder,
Jack Kirkham, and C77fford Ash
Chair-rr,an Ray Sheridan opened the meeting at 7:33 p.m,
1 Mr. S�eridan explained that it was n�t his inten� to ca11 a special meeting,
but b�cause of the Counci7's �osition not to act upon �the Ordinance, in which
one a� the Council members objected ta the 55% vote, it was necessary to call
1 a speeial meeting. Of the 24 proposed changes, there was one objection. And
this had to be a unanimous voi.e by the Council.
�
'
'
,
�
�
'
'
'
Mr. St�eridan said it was his understanding from previaus action when Counci]
did t�ot act upon the change in the �rimary, they wanted to act on everything
all at the same time.
f�lr. 5heridan presen�ed �ome options to the Commission. Mr. Sheridan said he
had received a copy of a memo sEnt to Nasim Qureshi from Marvin Brunse7l,
indicating that aur voting machines have tvdelve �ages and the Caunty L�vi7l be
using six ar seven af these paqes, 7eav�ng 5 ar 6 pages the C7ty can use.
The G�ty wi71 be taking up three of those pages by the MaW�or a�sd Counci7man
at La�ge, the Alorth Park and 7i�uor issue, and the horth Suburban Hospital
Disti~ic�, which G��ould leave 4 pages 7eft. A1so, an amendment to the Constitution
of Mi�nesota which would possibiy be on one pag� of ihe ballot. That would 7eave
the G9�arter Commission having the o�t�on af using the ballot by grouping the
amenc��nent, vating on a17 ame;�dments as or��, a revised Charter, or break them
down into c�roups. Mr. Sheridan said prior to this 7�tter, he �nd Marvin Brunse]]
had c�me up wi�h around 6 ideas. Rnother option was to not pu� it on the
Nover.��er ballot, and hold it aver unti7 7975, or a special or genera7 e7ection.
Mr. ��eridan gave a few exampies of how thes� ballots could be set up.
Mr. Sheridan expressed h3s own op�nion, He thought because of the action of the
Counc�l last Monday night, he would personally prefer to see the amendments to
the Ghart�r not be on ihe ballot in the 1974 November E7'ection, and either hold
it over to 1975 on the general e7ection or ca17 a special election in the spring
af 1975 to vote just on the adoption af the revisions of the Charter.
He fN7t the Charter Commission had tried io get this through an Ordinance
adopi�on, thus saving the taxpayers a sum of money. Those that could not be
hand�ed in that manner chose to go on the ballot and be handled at a general
elect:ion.
' Mr. S�heridan said �n their deliberations for the past year and a half, now
they did not have suff��ie►it time to fu11y appraise the electorate as to what
these things were.

Mr. Sheridan said the Commission has the authority ta put each amendment
as a separate ballot. There could be 24 amendments to the Charter. If it
were to go this way, it would be a hand ba7lot, not by a voting machine.
Mr. Sheridan felt the Charter amendments had become too much of a political
issue. He stated they wou7d nat have t�me from now till November 75 to
proper]y hold a public or series of public hearings to exp7ain to those
interested parties what the reasons are and vrhy the proposed changes are
bei ng made.
Mr. Bjerkesett asked if it wou7d be possible to present this as a revised
Charter on one ballot, whether they vote yes or no. Mr. Sheridan sa�d
they could do this, putting all the amendments on one ballot as a tota7
package. It would �hen stand nr fall under the yes or no vote. Mr. Sheridan
said in areas where the Charter �s be�ng concurred with the state statutes,
these cou7d all be grouped together, if ihey chose to do it in more than
one ballot. The amendment could be in general terms and could be posted in�
the polling places, a complete verbatum of what the changes would be.
Mr. Sheridan s�tggested qetting this ouL of the palitical atmosphere. By
that t�me, maybe some or all af the praposed changes could be hand7ed by
a m ordinance. The balance cou7d be publicized and explained and go on
a special or general election.
Mr. Bjerkesett felt they were mis7ead somewhat last spring when they
anticipaied act�on upon ihe primary from the City Council, and they tabled
i� until all the rest of the changes would be submitted. Mr. Bjerkesett
said it was his implica�ion �hat the Cnuncil fu77y iniended to act upon
i�t as ap�roved. He said present7y they do not have enough time to organize
and present a representative explanation to the pub1ic by the 28th of this
month. Mr. Bjerkese�tt felt they shc�uld pull the Ordinance and give them-
selves some time.
MOTION QY HERB BACON THAT TH� CHAR7ER CO��MISSTON TABLE TNE PROPOSED AMENDMENTS
AND TH!�i THt �1MENDMENTS NOT �E PllT DN THE BALLOi FOR THE NOVEMBER 1974 ELECTION.
Upon a voice vnte, the motion carried unanimously.
Further discussian was held on the motion. Mr. Sheridan explained they
could go back to the Council in �:he spring and present the praposed amendments
and if they do not choose to act upon thern, a special election wi1T be called.
The,y would set up some tines for pub7ic hearings prior to the special election,
or put it on the general election. _
Mr. Sheridan said there was no way this matter could be dropped and buried.
Mr. Sheridan stated it had been moved fram the November 74' election and would
be put before the electorate �f the Counci1 in early 75' chose not to act
upon these amendments by Ordinance. Mr. Sheridan said he would be wi7ling
to push it all the way. He honestly felt the Commission had gone about it
in the proper manner. There had been published notices on all legal postings.
Various people had attended the meetings suggesting what they felt was
needed for changes in the Charter.

Mr. Sheridan said a comment had been made at a previous meet�ng, that someone
had started a petitian with regard to �illing the vacan�y on the Counci1,
requiring that a specia7 electian be held. Mr. Sheridan said he had no
objection to that. T�hese people were apparen�ly misinformed.
� As far as the C�airman was copcerned, it would be the inten� of the Comm�ss9on
to reeva1uate it's position, re-submit the proposed amendments to the C�ty
Counci7 and ask them to act upon them and hand7e those that can be hand7ed
by Ordinance early in 1975, and if the amendments are not satisfac�ori7y
' acted upon, the Commission wi17 then elect in put it on a future ba7lot,
either a special election or genera7 e]ection in 1975.
Mr. Sheridan said he would inform the City administration of the action
moved upon by the Charter Cammissian, choosing not to put the amendments
an the November election, since they do not have the time to do the justice
of the work of the past eighteen months.
Mr. Sher9dan asked the Commissian members if they wauld like him to contact
the paper explaining on beha7f of the Commission. The Commission thought
this was an exce7lent idea.
Mr. McPherson asked the chairman if he thought things would change a lot
between now and next spring? Mr. Sheridan said there will be an e7ection
behind them. Mr. Bacon thought ihey would have problems, but they will
have time to expla�n the Commission's stand.
Mr. Sjerkesett asked if it cou7d be possib7e to have a printed sheet made
up explaining the Charter Commission, ho�� it functions, wha� it's purpose
is, and explain the changes. Mr. McPherson sugges�ed including something
like this in one of the C�ty mai7�ngs to all accupants. Mr. Sheridan said
they could have it condensed into a cauple of sheets. Mr. Sheridan sa9d
this same iype of informatinn cou�d be posted in every pol�ing place, if it
�rent �o the ba7lot.
Mr. Bjerkese-tt said he had requested capies of the September 9, 7974 Counci7
mee�ing of the publ�c hearing held on th� Char�er amendn�ents. His reason
for this was to bring to the attention of the Charter Commissian the type of
thing you have to expect if this shou7d be on the ballnt for the e7ection
campaign.
ADJOURNMENT
Mr. Sheridan declared Lhe meeting adjourned at 8:12 p.m. The next meeting

MEMBERS PRESENT: Vern Moen, Bob Lee, Bobbi Spaeth, William Gerads, Lee Houck,
Dennis Schneider, and Jerry Board�nan
� MEMB�RS ABSENT: Joe Schommer, Mrs, Randy Johnson, Robert Riese, and Dale Hagen
Jerry Boardman opened the mee�ing at 7:50 p.m.
Mro I3oardman presented the members with a copy of the f�.rst stage data which
he h�td accumulated from the bike survey. They distributed 2255 survey forms
throughout the City. Fie exglained this was a 10°!o sampling of each neighborhood.
Mr, Boaxdman said it was interesting to notE that more females own bicycles than
males. Overall, the study �uas quite successful, they received good response
from f:he heavily populated areas9 poor responses in apartmenC complexes. They
also received poor respan.se from the elderly, Mr, Iioardman thought the elderly�s
opinioL�. tiTas quite important. Many of them said they did not use the Parks,
therefore they were not interested in filling ou� the fozms.
• Mro L�e said they own 12 bicycles in their family. He had asked them what
they liked and disliked about biking in Fridleyo One of the main reasons for
not biking was possibility of theft, ri.ding in areas of heavy traffic, and
ri.ding over curbs if you rode on the sidewalko Mr. Boardman said these are
the types of thirigs that can be alleviatede Vern Moen sai.d a good wap to el�minate
accidents would be to get childran aw�are of the traffic 1aws.
Mr. Boardman asked a�I members to read through the introduction. He stated
that Fridley is coord;i_nating their eiforts wf.th surrounding communities; Coon
Rapids, Naw Bxighta�., Mounds Vi.e�a, and pc�ssibly Columbaa Heights.
Mr. Lee questianed whether there caas any �,aay a person could bike from Fridley to
' Brookdale besides going over �he bridge? Mr., Boardman said they do not have one
yet. Several things could come up with the u�e of the Coon Rapids Dam.
Jerry Boardman said the possibility af ilow l�.nes bein� added to the intersections
' of Missl.ssippi Street and University has been brought up, possibly a b�.keway
system could be put in the�n. Mr. Moen suggested making the Commission's influence
by xesolut�ion to the Highway Depaztment in considering any new cons�ruction,

Mr. Lee asked ii this was a bikeway and walkGlay committee? Mr. Boardman said
the �n�irzeering Department had been working on a 5 year program development and
combinf.d this along with the bikeway system.
Mr. Lee said there were no indications of the expenses involved in the introduction
or throughout the goals. Mr. Boardman said expenditures were important but he felt
they sExould come under Construction. Cost and Maintenance Breakdown.. Mx'. Moen
said they should keep cost in�mind in any of ttieir discussions.

Mr. Lee asked if they had any statistics on bike injuries and deaths? Mr. Boardman
said this is quite difficult to do because all statistics have been c7.assified
under motor veh�cle. Mr. Boardman said it would be a good idea to get more
input from the state 1evel,
Bill Gerad suggested having e�tensive training licensing bike programs. He said
the traa,n�.�g at schools is not verq costlye Mr. Boardman said Sgt. Wilkinson
had been �iven an assignment to set up an educational program through the Fridley
Police Depaxtment-. This would not be done until after the Bikeway Committee completes
t[ieir study, something caul.d possibl5� be ir�plemented this summer.

BIKEGdA'i' CONIl�ZITTEE, Upon a voice vote, the motian carried unanimously. T�omination
was accepted by Mr. Moen. Mro Moen said he fully understood that it was his duty
to present or suggest something to the City Council when the time comes.
MOTION BY BOI3 I�E TO NOMI,NATE BILL GERAD AS VICE-CHAIRMAN OF THE CITIZEI�S BIKEWAY
COMMZT'1�E. Seconded by ?.ee Houcko Upon a voice vote, the motzon carried unanimously.
Mro Boardman said one of the main taslcs of this Comnittee was to come up with a
plan. They had origznally set this up as a Citizen Committee because it is
important to have citizen in�ut. Mr. Boardman said the plan will probably be
pres�nted to City Council in February. There would probably be delays under the
Planning and Selec�ian section. Mr. Boardman said the P1ann.ing Department had
done a study in need of bike trail systems, 32 t��iles of trail. A11. this information
could be gathered and then they could te11 whe�her oi�:e neighborhood should be
better served than another.
Mr. Baaxdman said he would like to see articles written from memUers of the Committee
to ci_ti.zens tl�at could be pubiished in the C�.ty newspaper. Dennis Schneider was
chosen by the Committee ta act as publicity chairman, publishin.g alI articles in
the newspaper and seeing that continued articles are submitted throughout the
Committ:eers studies. I�Sr. Boaxdman said any articles submitted in the Star and
Tribun� wi11 come from the City`s fundso Lee Iiouck suggested corresponding with
the high school to get some reaction from the students.
' Mr. Moen asked how Corn��ni�tee m�mbers could encourage and �et feed back from their
own partic��lar neighborhoods? Mr. Boardman said they could give them a survey,
Mr. Pioen�asked if there wa� an�- way the Commission could get information in bri.ef
' form saurces or help that might be ava.ilable in fundingo Mr. Boardman said the
State Legislation will be opening up more.
' Mr. Moen asked if they would be called upon �o describe this bikeway system in
detail? Mr. Boardman said no, rather of the general program than in specific
deta:il. T(xey could set up a cost estimate on the total project.

Mr. Moen asked if they eventually would need some type of professional advice?
Mr. Boardman said tiiey could ask the City �ngineer to attend some of the meerings
a,nd someone from Parks and Recreation, so as to gei more a.nput to the Com�ittee.
Mr. M��en said the Co�unittee needs regular attendance in order to brin� in input
from a11 areas of the City. Mr. Boardrnan explained that Mr. Moen would have
to write a letter to the City Council, recomnending a vacancy be filled.
Bi11 Ge�ads asked each member to check for companies and various individuals
that will fund bike stands at parks, stores, etc. Mr. Lee suggested getting
some of the children's react?_ons in the City. Lee Houck suggested informing
the Student Council at the high school..

MEMO T0:
MEMO FROM:
DATE:
Richard Sobiech, Public Works Director
Jerrold Boardman, Planning Assistant
October 2, 1974
SUBJECT: New Metropalitan Council Implementation Guide-
lines for Housing Palicy 31
The Nfetropo1itan Council is propasing new
guide�ines by which the Nousing Policy 31 is used as a criteria
for awardiny federal grants under th�ir A-95 review authority.
This new policy is based on a 100 point graduated scale in-
stead af the existing ± 10 poini; system. The new policy will
provide credits ta a com�nunity on existing low and moderate
income housir�g and mobile homes as we11 as addi�ional points
for such things as Housirrg & Redeuelopment Autharity, codes &
ordinances, comprehensive hausing plan etc.
In my estimation this is a fairer way of
applying Policy 31 as a criteria for fe�ieral funding and allows
the corrrnunity to clearly s�e where �mprovements can 6e made to
imprave its ranking in an A-95 review. It also lays down a
guideline as to what the Metropolitan Cauncil is looking for
fram comrnunit�es as far as law and moderate income housing.
This letter shauld be submitted ta the City
C�uncil at the October 7, 1974 m��ting for their review. If
they wish to support the new implemen�ation guidelines for
Po1icy 31 review, they should do so in a letter to the Human
Resaurc�s Cc�r��mi ttee bef'ore the October 16, 1974 publ ic
hearing on this policy. This wauid sho4a that the City sup-
parts a fairer Policy 31 review.

Re: New Implementation G�idelines for Nousing Policy 31
Dear Ms. Campbell:
At the Fridley City Council Meeting of October 7, 1974,
I was authorized ta write a letter supporting the adoption
of the n�w proposed guidelines for the implementation of
Nousing Policy 31 as it a�p7ies to funding requests.
We feel that this is a fairer way to evalua�te a com-
munity's hausing perfarmance and a11�4�s the community to
clearly see wflat the Metropolitan Council is expecting in
the provision af housing as well as where improvements can
be made.

' RESOLUTION N0. 1�974
' A RESOLUTION DETERMINING THE NECESSITY OF AND PROVIDING FOR A TAX LE1lY IN
EXCESS OF NORMAL CITY CHARTER TAX LIMITS
� BE IT RESOLVED, By the Council of the City of Fridley as follows:
SECTION 1: That the Council of the City of Fridley heretofore received from the
'City P�anager a proposed budget of the City of Fridley for the year 1975 which
proposed budget when examined evidenced the necessity of an additional tax levy
in excess of the City Charter limits and, accordingly, there was then adopted on
� the 5th day of Auc,+ust, 1974, a resolution declaring the necessity for an
additional tax levy and specifying the purpose for which such additional tax
levy is required.
l�•J
' FURTHER, The Council proceeded to hold public hearings pursuant to three
(3) weeks published notice in the official newspaper of the City. That such
public hearing was held on the 9th �ay of September, 1974 and all persons inter-
' ested therein were afforded an opportunity to be heard and make objections, if
any there be, to the budget as then proposed, That after such hearing and after
full discussion of the contents of the budget and all objections thereto the
' Council further proceeded to correct and amend the budget in such way as was
deemed necessary by the Council to be in the best interests of the City; and after
such corrections and amendments the Council did pass and adopt by Ordinance on
� first reading on the October 7 , 1974 a budget for the City of
Frid1ey for the operation of its business during the year 1975 a copy of which
budget is attached hereto for reference purposes as EXNIBIT "A".
� SECTION 2: Further, upon the examination of such budget originally proposed,
corrected, and amended and adopted by ihe City of Fridley on the October 7�
, 1974, it reasonably appears, and the Council does not find t at
� the tax levy necessary to provide monies for the operation af the business of the
City of Fridley during the year 1975 under said budget, is and will be, when
computed in accordance with law, in excess of the normal City Charter limit of
' ten (10) mills on each dollar of the assessed valuation of the property in the
City, but that, nevertheless, it is reasonable and to the best interest of the
City in order to provide for the proper operation of the business and functions
of the City during the year of 1975, to exceed such normal City Charter tax levy
' limit, and to levy taxes thereof sufficient to provide the monies necessary to
the operation of the business of the City in accordance with said budget.
' SECTION 3: That to provide money in accordance with the needs and purposes of
the budget of the City for the year of 1975, taxes shall be levied in accordance
with law sufficient to provide monies provided for any pur�ose herein shall be
, appropriated to and used for any other purpose, except as might otherwise be
authorized by law, either under the general law of the State of Minnesota or the
City Charter of Fridley.
