TNE MINUTES OF THE PU BLIC HEARING MEETING OF THE FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL OF JULY 14, 1975
The Public Hearing meeting of the Fridley City Council of July 15, 1975 was called to
order at 7:34 P.M. by Mayor Nee.
PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE: •
Mayor A:ee invited those present at the meeting to join the Council in saying the Pledge
of Allegiance to the Flag.
ROLL CALL:
MEP1BERS PRESENT: Councilman Starwalt, Councilman Fitzpatrick, �1ayor Nee,
Councilwoman Kukowski, Councilman areider.
MEP�I6ERS ABSENT: None.
ADOPTION QF AGENDA:
Mayor Nee said there woiald be one addition, the consideration of a resolution in opposition
to the Rules and Regulations of the Municipal Shoreland P1anagement Act.
MOTION by Councilm�_• Fitzpatrick to adopt the Agenda as ame��ded with the addition of the
Resolution in Opposi�ion to the rules and regulations of the Shoreland Management Act.
Seconded by Councilman Breider. Upon a voice vote, ail voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the
motion carried unanimously.
PUBLIC HEARINGS:
PUt3LIC NEARING ON IMPROVEMENT - STORM SEWER IMPROVEMENT PROJECT N0. 118.
P10TION by Councilman Starwalt to waive the reading of the public hearing notice and open the
public hearing. Seconded by Councilwoman Kukowski. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye,
D1ayor Nee declared the public hearing opened at 7:36 P.P4.
1 The Pubiic l�lorks Director said the current matter was brought to the Council to solve a
problem in the middle of a drainage district. He explained the first proposal for the
_ elimination of the drainage problem to pick up the water at the catch basin on Benjamin
Street and take it to the north to 60th to the existing stclrm se�ver at 60th and Aakwood
' , Manor. Ne said this would collect the water beinq directed to the low area on private
property. He said the water had been collecting•in the loar area prior to the construction
of the street. He said the water still drains to the lova area through the catch basin.
He said there vaould be some benefit to the remainder of the property in the drair,age
district. He said the estiin�te for this im�rovement would be approximately $20,981.25 which
� would result in the assessment of $8.66 per 100 square feet.
P1ayor Nee asked if this improvement would influence the surface or pavement of the existing
improvement. The Public Works Director said no, this could be instal]ed in the boulevard
' area. He explained the only restoration work to be sodding of the boulevard ai�d driveways
on 60th Avenue. He said the $8.66 is a very high assessment, and it is the highest proposed
in the City to this date. .
'
'
'
'
I�
The Public Works Director said an alternate proposal had been figured for the direction
of the water by piping from the exisiing catch basin on Benjar?in south to the mutual property
line and into the lot area. He said this wauld still allow the flow of the water to the
depression or low area where it has been flowing all along. Ne said this would require
the City to �acquire same easements for the construction of the system and the lot area. He
said this estimated cost would be approximately $10,150 or an assessment of �4.19 per 100
square feet. He said this solution would be more compatible to the assessments of the other .
areas of the City. This would eliminate the idea of devalopment in.the low area and the Gl�y
would maintain the property in ihe low area. He said the water wou]d be co7lected in the
low area where it has been collectina for some time.
Mayor Nee asked if this improvement had been petitioned for. The Public Works Director
said no, it was brought to the Council at the direction of the Council.
Councilwoman Kukowski asked who would be assessed for the second proposal, and the Public•
�Works Director said everyone who would be assessed for the first improvement. He saic:
thex were talking about the same area.
Councilman Starwalt said if the easements are acquired, there would be no future development

in the back lots. He asked if this action could be overturned in the future if development
is desired. The Public Works Director said it would be possible but it would be difficult
and costly because the piping would exist in the area. He said this could be done by filling
the low area and replacing the piping system.
Mrs. B.L. Lillemoen, 1583 Gardena Avenue, addressed the Council and indicated she lived
on Lot 22. She said she would not be in favor of any easement. She also said she may want
tn develop her property in the future but she did not know when. She suggested that if there
there is any easement necessary, this be done on Mr. Erickson's property because he is the
one with the proUlem.
Mayor Plee asked Mrs. Liller�oen how she felt.about the proposed project which were alternatives
one and two. Mrs. Lillemoen said she would like the pipe installed on his property, not
her own. Mayor Nee asked if she would favor the improvement if the pipe was placed on
Mr. Erickson's property, and Mrs. Lillemoen said she would not give up any easements at all.
Councilman Starwalt asked if the easements were'on Mr. Erickson`s property, would
Mrs. Lillemoen favor either the first or second proposals. Mrs. Lillemoen said she would
not favor any of the proposals. She suggested that a pipe be run under his driveway close
to his steps with a catch basin installed in the low area. She suggested that the expense
be taken care of by Mr. Ericl:son or spread around to everybody. She mentioned that this
was the City Engineer's first proposal, and this would take the shortest amount of pipe
and involve the least cost. She suggested the pipe be covered wittr dirt. She said she
did not want the pipe on her property line, she would not be in favor of this.
Mr. Jim Tiller, 5929 Oakwood Manor, said the water had been coming into that area for years
He said the basic drainage area has not changed. He said he did not think there was
more water in the low area, and it was there when the house was bought by the present
owner. He said there could be more Naater in the area since the improvement of the street.
Mr. Tiller'said the improvement would benefit one individual. He said he had been by
the property after a recent rain, and there was no water standing in the low area the
next day. He said he had not noticed any erosion. Mr. Tiller said he could not see this
kind of expense to take care cf someone else's problem. �
Mayor Nee asked if the people of the area had been assessed for any other storm sewer
lateral. The City Manager said there had been some assessment for storm sewer, bu� this
was a very small portion.
Mr. Bailey Tiller, 1535 Gardena Avenue , addressed the Council and asked how deep the
storm sewer would have to be in this area. He asked if a tank v!as to be installed. The
Public Warks Director said neith er one of the systems contains this type of installation.
Mr. Bailey Tiller explained he did not understand the implications of the proposed
improvements, and he had talked to an attorney who would represent him in this action with
the City. .
Mayor IVee asked Mr. Bailey 7iller if he was opposed to one or both of the proposals.
Mr. Tiller answered that he was talking about something being installed like a tank.
lie said he would not favor the condemnation of any property. He said he questioned if
ar,yone would want to develop the back area and said this was a beautiful area with .
wildlife. He said he did not understand the current proposals: He mentioned Mr•. Don
Savelkoul would represent him in this consideration.
Mayor Nee asked�Mr. Til]er if he had any inclination to split off his lot, and Mr. Tiller �.
said he did not. Mayor Nee asked if he had any interest in having ��riother building site
in the back of his land, ana P4r. TiYler said not at this time. Mr. Tiller said he had
no intention of selling his front lot. �
� The City Manager said no one is saying the land would be condemned. He said the okmer
could give the City the right to install the pipe, and there would be no reason to
acquire or tondemn. Mayor Nee asked if the estimate of $10,00� in�luded money for
condemnation. The Public Works Director said yes.
Mrs. Nina Sakariason, 5965 Oakwood Manor, said she is still paying for the road, and if
, any more is added, she would not be able to pay this. She added, even if it would be
'. a little bit, it would b2 too much. '
Councilman Starwalt questioned if there would be additional assessments in the future, ;
and the Public Works Director said yes, they are in a subdistrict within a larger district,
and they would receive assessments in the future deve1upment.
,I� Councilman Breider questioned the method of assessment at this time and in the future if
this improvement was approved,at this time. The Public Works Director explained there
,. � ' has been a City policy where a large area is taken and the assessments are equalized
� ,
u
292

' for rate in the whote area. He said this would depend on the amount of
benefit received, and this would have to be reviewed again.
, Mr. Nick Garaffa, 6750 Monroe Street, asked how this proposed improvement
, wou1d compare to the conditions in the area where Mr. Mi17er had developed.
The Public Works Director said this would differ in the manner that there
are many property owners, and Mr. Miller was the sole owner of t6e property
at the time there was a drainage problem on his property. He said it
, would be .similar in that the area was draining into a low hole. Mr. Garaffd
recalled that Mr. Miller had asked that the. property be drained. The Public
Works Director mentioned. that Mr. Miller was the sole owner of ihe property.
. Mr. Garaffa pointed out that the property owner may not have been aware of
� the problem or condition when the property was purchased. He said he felt
the precedent has been set by the Council action in the Miller case which
drained sites to aiiow more buildable lots.

Mr. Bai7ey Ti71er said he wou7d like to clarify the statement that was made
by M.r. Starwalt. He said his water does not dra�n into Mr. Erickson's
.property, the street drainage goes into th.e Erickson property. Mr. Tiller
said he lived in the area for many years, and Mr. Erickson never had any
water on his property until the Engineering Department put inthe street.
Mr. John Bolich, 1580 60th Avenue, said he had a garden in the low area for.
three years, and he had never had any water in the garden. He explained
when the properiy was sold, he had to give up the garden. He said he had
lived in ihe area for li years, and there was never any problem with the
water until the street was put in. Mayor Nee asked Mr. Bolich if he agreed
wTth the border of the drainag.e district. Mr. 6olich answered, he did
not know, he had not taken a transit to get this information. Mayor Nee
said the street improvEment generated the prob7em. Mr. Bolich said why
they did not put the storm sewer in at the time the street was installed,
he did not know. He said now they would have to cut up the area to do this.
Mayor Nee asked Mr. Bolich how he felt about the proposed improvement at
this time. Mr. Bolich said he was nat for or against the improvemeni. Ne.
said he would not want an increase in his assessments. He said he wouid
agree that there is a problem and something arouid have to be done, but he
couid not offer a solution, i�ayor Nee asked Mr. Bolich which plan he would
favor,and Mr. Bolich said the least expensive.
Mrs. Dorothy Lillmars, owner of Lot i, Black 7, Route 2, Stacy, Minnesota,
questioned the amount of assessments on this lot, and Mayor Nee said this
would be 831.36. Mrs. Lillmars said she believed this'to be excessive for
a lot with no accessability. Mayor Nee said they did have a deprived access.
Mayor Nee said the City did have a plan where the back lots would be built on,
and now the people say they do not want to build on the back lots; now the
plan is invalid. Mayor Nee asked Mrs. Lillmars if they would like to deveio.p
their land. Mrs. Lillmars said her husband thought this would be possible.
t1r. Baiiey Tiller said he thought there were only two buildable sites in the
back portions.
1 , Mr. Mah1on S. Moe, 5955 Senjamin Street, addressed the Council and said he
owne� Outtot A and asked how much the assessment would be for this parcel.
, He said there is no access to this property and no hope of access in the
iuture. Mayor Nee said this is estimated at $1,379.2.7. Mr. Mahlon said
' the assessment for Lot .1 , Block 1, Acorn Hill Addition is$927.42. He
said this �u�� make his assessments in the area of $2,200. He said he
would not be �n favor of the improvement.
Mrs. Lillmars asked how much the assessment would be for 1561 Gardena Avenue.
Mayor Nee said this is estimated at $498.Si. Mrs. Lilimars asked why this
, was only one half of the price_of the other lot. Fhe Pubiic EJorks D'rector
Saq�the front half•of this lot is ia another assessment area and has a�ready
been as�sessed. '

Mrs. Fredrick Schmitt, 5963 (fakwood Manor, said she is opposed to any more
assessments. She said she did not feel that she contributed to the water.
Mayor Nee asked Mrs.Schmitt if she had any intentions of splitting off her
� back lot. Mrs. Schmitt said the lot had been landscaped in the back portion
to take care of erosion, and she did not feel she would split it.
Nrs. Sakariason said her property does not contribute to the water. She said
she is paying $4,000 in assessments at th.e present time.
Mr. Lawrence Peterson, 5991 Benjamin Street N.E., addressed the Council and
said he thought all of this water was going to the Erickson property. He
said with the proposed system oF piping from Benjamin to 60th, this would
f�ave to be a very deep system. He .said the people of the area shouid have
had the system installed at the same time as the street was installed.
Mr. Peterson asked how long the water stands on the Erickson property.
Mr. Erickson said from one to two days. He said a11 of the debris from
the street such as sand, gravel and silt is washed into the area.
Mayor Nee ask:�d IIOW deep the cut would be to instal1 the storm sewer and,
the Public Works Director said,in the deepest place, as deep as 13 feet.
Mr. Erickson said he is the person who catches all of the water, and when
he bought the place, there was no water in that area. He said he would
like to clear up some misconceptions. He said he thought the problem was
created by the City,and the City knew there was going to be a problem there.
He said this concern had come up on the hearing.. He.said he had come to
. the City and asked that the damages be taken care of. He said there are
some funds escrowed, and some people do not know there are funds escrowed
for this type of improvement. Ne said when they had purchased the house,
they thought there was a pending assessment for the storm sewer construction.
Mr. Erickson said he was not in favor of the second proposal. Ne said he
thought this was too much money for a poor solution. He said as long as
he had the money in escrow, he would favor the construction of the complete
system or alternative number one. •
Mayor Nee asked if the volume of the•water had been increased with the
construction of the improvement of the street. He asked if .the water
coming down �Gardena was routed in another direction before the street
improvement. The Public Works Director said the drainage district had not
been increased. He explained that this drainage is directed into New Brighton
and there may be a small.amourit coming into this area. Mayor Nee asked if
this had drained in this area before, and ihe Public Works Director said
yes. Mayor Nee said the paving has accentuated the problem.
Councilman Starwalt said the water does route to Benjamin, and if anyone
had ever stood there in a rain, they would be surprised at the amount.
The.Public 4Jorks Director said he had been there in a rain. Councilman
Starwalt said the water did go east on Gardena and now it goes north on ,
Benjamin to Mr. Erickson's property.
The City Attorney.said generaily speaking, the laws on surface water drainage
as far•as municipalities saythat they can dispose of this water in a
reasonable fashion. He said a municipality can drain into a low area that
had been burdened with this water previouSly. He said when the streets are
jmproved, there is going to be more and faster runoff. The City Attorney
said in his opinion, the City has some liability because the water is being
� collected and disposed of by means of the culvert onto Mr. Erickson's �
property. He said he did not think this wou1d be considered a reasonable
way to dispose of the water. He said if there is damage, erosion and
gravel being deposii:ed, he felt Mr. Erickson wou1d be entitled to some legal
regress. He said'if the City chose the second alternative, subject to the
acquisition oi the low area, this vroUld,be logical and reasonable. He said
he was not advising that this be done, but just mentioning that this would
be a logical solution and one option that the City would f�ave.
Mayor Nee said one questian that would have to be answered would �e if the
peop1e of the area want access availab]e for the back lots. He said the
City has some obligation to find some solution. He said this would be a
1eg�a1 ob1igation if not a moral obligation.

Mrs. Lillmars said she has ]ived in the area for many years and there was
never any water down in the low area. She said�she thought it would be the
Gity's responsibi1ity to solve the problem if it has been caused by the
City. .
Mr. Robert Erickson said he was not pushing any one of the plans, He was
jusi seeking action on the damage that has been done. He said this is
a problem the City created, and he expected to have something done about
it. He said this is ihe reason ihat this pubiic hearing had 6een called
and the reason for the funds being escrowed for the storn sewer. He
said whether or not the storm sewer is installed or the whole thing is
dumped, he Would like the damaged taken care of. He said these damages
would run from $10,000 to $12,000.
Councilman Starwalt referred to the damage done and said he would question
if they would be that high. He said he�would agree at one time after
a rain there was four feet of water standing in the low area, and a
couple of times when there was three feet of water in the low area, but
it drains away fast. He said five people had escrowed money for future
storm sewer construction in this area. He said he would not want to
personally declare that there will not be any storm sewer project; they
are working with too many unknowns. He said he thought'the escrow process
is a reasonable process for a situation such as this. He said he was not
on the Council at the time that this was decided upon. He said he would
not want to see the escrow accounts to be in jeopardy.
Councilman Starwalt said he recalled that one time Mr. Erickson said he
would be pleased if ihe City wouTd pipe th� runoff water rather than have it
overland. •
Mr. Erickson said he had told Councilman Starwalt at City Council meetings
and also in private that this is not.an acceptable solution to the
problem. He said only one time did he say he would consider this type of
- thing, and this was if it was a temporary solution and it would be dcne •
out of general funds. He said he had corrected Councilman Starwalt on this
point at two meetings. He said he only agreed to this fiype of solution
• if:it were to be temporary and out of general funds. He said now the
second alternative comes up with this type of action, but the land will
be condemned, and it is to be a permanent solution: He said he was not in
favor of this kind of solution.
� Councilman Starwalt said Mr. Erickson had said he would accept the under-
ground construction. Mr. Erickson said he agreed if this would be temporary
and out of general funds. He said the current proposal or second alter-
native would ruin other people's property and his own, and they would have
to pay a great expense for this.
Councilman Starwalt asked Mr. Erickson if he would accept the piping of the •
water to the low area if this would be at no cost to him. Mr. Eric'kson
asked who would pay the cost. Councilman Starwalt said it would be at no
. cost to Mr. Erickson. Mr. Erickson asked if he meant that no one would be
assessed. Councilman Starwalt said yes. Mr. Erickson said he would agree `
to this if it was a temporary solution and no one was assessed and if the
escrow account was not disturbed.
Councilman Starwalt asked now much in jeopardy the escrow funds are at the
present time. The City Attorney sai.d if this was challenged in court, he
did not want to say that the City would win the challenge. He said
' this would' be doubtful or questionable. He said the City would.have a
50/50 or less chance. He questioned if the City had the right to hold the
escrow funds indefinitely. The City Attorney said there is no.time limit
for holding the escrow, but they state a reasonable time limit. He
. mentioned two to three years would be okay, but any longer than this, he
would not say the City cou]d be sure to win a cha]lenge.
Gouncilman Starwalt said the temporary solution would not take care of any
future development. He again mentioned there are so many.unknowns in this
consideration. He asked if the people wouid say that this area was to be
developed, and they were put on record saying this, would this have a
bearing on how long the escrow monies could be held. The City Attorney

' Councilman Starwalt said something would have to be done that the people
agree with. He said the majority of the people do not want to have an
improvement project with the exception of Mr. Erickson.
Mr. Erickson said he had not expressed the desire for either of the alter-
natives: He said he is not in favor of the second proposal. Mr. Erickson-
stated he would like the money retained in escrow. k{e said he would 1ike
something done about the damage to his property. He said he had $1,500 in
escrow for storm sewer. �
Mayor Nee asked if the money would go to Mr. Erickson or the previous property
owner if the escrow is given up. Councilman Starwalt said �n this case,
it would go to the prior property owner.
Mr. Bailey Tiller said he thought he was oblig� .ed to contribute to the
improvement. He sdid he would like to see something installed such as a
� ceptic tank in.the low area. He said he is opposed to the two proposals-
presented at the present meeting, but he felt he shou1•d pay his share.
Mayor Nee ,asked Mr. Tiller �if he was suggesting an installation such as a
dry well, and.Mr. Tiller said yes. •
The Public Works Director said one of the proposals had been to put in an
energy dissapator which would takeup the force of the water flowing into
the low area. Mayor Nee said it would seem to him that this would increase.
the costs. He said the energy dissapator would allow.the water to remain
running over land to the low-area.
Councilman Breider questioned if this could and should be done from the
general fund. He said Mr. Erickson had reluctantly agreed to this as a
- temporary solution. f+lr. Erickson agreedto this state�nent. The Public ..
� Works Director said it would be difficult•to calculate the price for this
type of system. The Public Works Director said if the parcel of property
was cut by the pipe on a triangular'line, this would solve the problem
of not having the pipe on the property line. Councilman Starwalt said
he thought Mr. Erickson would provide the easement. Mr. Erickson said he
did not know about this. Mr. Erickson said he would have to have someone
appraise the property. The Public Works Director said he thought this
�emporary solution may be from $5,OOOto $7,000. Mr. Erickson asked if they
were talking about a pipe running i;hrough the center of his yard. The
Public Works Director said yes, and Mr. Erickson said.forget it.

MOTION by Councilman Starwalt to waive the reading of thepublic hearing
notic� and open the public hearing. Seconded by Councilman Kukowski. Upon
a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried
unanimously, and the public hearing opened at 9:19 P.M.
The Public Works Director explained this hearing to concern the improvement
of Siverts.Lane, one of the last remaining unimproved streets in the City
of Fridley. He said up until this time the City has been maintaining the
unimproved street and plov�ing it in the winter months. He said there had
6een grading done on a few occasions. He said the maintenance of this •
street was done with the anticipation that the sanitary sewer and water
h�nuld be instailed in the future to serve the property on the south end of
Siv.erts Lane. t4r. Sobiech recalled at a recent City Council meeting, there

•had been�a request approved to waive the hook up to the sanitary sewer �
and water facilities on this lot. He said this iead the staff to put the
present improvement on the agenda for public hearing. The Public Works
� Director said it is not the City policy to maintain unimproved streets.
' Ne added, if the property owners are not in favor of this street improvement
project, they cou]d agree to maintain the street. He said the estimated
• cost of the original roll for this imrpovement is $10,205.80 which would
�nvolve a front foot assessment of $8.30. The side yard assessment would
be $1.24 per foot. .
The Public Works Director explained the feeling that in this case the
side yard assessment may not be appropriate because of the street being a
dead end street, and the use of the street would be quite restr�ctive.
He said in alternate Number One, the front foot assessment would be the full
assessment with the street being used as their access. He further explained
the poss9bility of the two properties on 69th be.ing split in the future,
so they had been figured for front assessment for the southerly portions.
He explained the cost for Alternate roll number one to be $9.04. He said
Alternate rol� number two would have a side yard together with a front foot
assessment fc, an assessment for the properties at $9.67. He said in this
roli, they would use only 75 feet of frontage for Parcel 250 and Parcel 260.
The Public Works Director explained the third Alternate roll was prepared
only using the abutting property owners and using a 75 foot frontage for
Parcel 250 and 260 witf� no side yard assessments for a front foot rate of $12.54
The Public Works Director said this would �e a 28 foot bituminus raadway with
no curb and gutter.
Mayor Nee asked if the other lot on the east side of the road is buildable.
The Pubiic Works Director explained this to be a tax forfeit parcel being •
held by Anoka County for the City of Fridley for Open Space acquisition
along Rice Creek. 41ayor fJee asked if the City of Fridley would pay the
assessments for this lot in this case. The Public PJorks Director said this
amount would be applied io the tax forfett property. He said the amount
would be paid by the owner of the property whether this be the City or the ,
County. • .
Councilman Starwalt asked if the City had any ptans for the park in the east
side of the roadway.` The Public Works Director said he was not aware of
any specific plans. �
Mayor Nee asked if Siverts Lane had paid a�side yard assessment. Mr. Mervin
Herrmann, Assessor, said no, because there are only front yards on this
property.
Councilman 5tarwa7t asked what amount of frontage would be charged for �
Parcel 260. The Public Works Director said this would be 75 feet of frontage.
Councilman Starwalt asked vrhat portion would be assessed for Parce7 250.
The Public Works Director said this would be 27Q feet on Alternate Number Two.
Councilman Starwalt said Parcel 250 is doing quite we]l. -
Council�man Star.walt questioned what type of curbing could be installed. `
The Public. Works Director said this would be a slight asphaii berm that would
be machine made. •
Councilman Starwa1t asked if the Council was aware tfiat tF�ere i�s actl`on
before the Planning Commission to vacate the road easement in Parcel 260:
He asked how this would affect the improvement. The Public Works Director
sald not at all. He said there is no other property to the south that would
need access. Councilman Siarwalt asked if the roadway was for gaining access
to the dam si:ie.• The Public Works Director said the parkland to the south
could be used for access to the damsite, He said agreements or easemen�s
could be obtained from the park parcel to theeast. He mentioned that he did
not think anyone had needed access to the dam in years.
Councilman StarwaTt mentioned that the Parcel E is 16 acres and asked if
there are any plans for access on the east edge. The City Manager said there
is a public easement and access by the townhouses, Mayor Nee said there is
no way to get down to the creek from 69th. He asked if there were any
development plans. The City,�Manager explained the money obtained for this •

project was only for acquisition at this time and not for development.
Mayor tVee questioned if there may be a need for a larger street in the future.
The City Manager said in Locke Park,which is a 125 acre park,there is a
very small roadway, and it is sufficient. '
Councilman Starwalt asked who is pushing for this improvement. He said he
felt that no one in tiie area wanted the improvement. Councilman Starwalt
questioned if there may be some need for the installation of uti.li.ties in
the future, could this be done after the improvement of the road. The
Ci.ty Manager said there would be a good size boulevard, and the utilities
could be installed in this portion.
Councilman Starwalt questioned if ihe smalJer size roadway would come up
to ,City standards. The Public Works Director said this would be a standard
street with the only difference being the width. The Public Works Director
said the recent normal cost for street improvement has been in the area of
$15.00 �e $17.00 per front foot,and this improvement would be quite a bit less
than this. The City Manager said this would be a minimal type of improve-
tnent to keep the construction costs down.
Councilman Starwalt questioned the typ.e of curbing that would be installed.
The Public Works Director explained this to be a triangular shaped berm that
would be machine made. He said the normal curb would be much higher and
wider. He mentioned that this would be fou'r inches high. Councilman Breider
asked what the cost would be to maintain this type of street. The Public
Works Director said he did not have the figures for this. He said the
grading had been done on a request basis, and this had been done about twice
per year. He said the plowing would be done when needed. Councilman Breider
questioned how much the maintenance would cost the City of the improvement
was insta.11ed. The Public Works Director said the grading would be eliminated.
Councilman Breider asked if�the snow plow would take out the berm. The City
Mana.ger said no, this is the type of berm on the 57th alley, and there is no
problem. The Pub�ic Works Director said there is a1so this type of berm on
64th bQtween Arthur and Central. The City Manager said if in the future
t.here is a request, the.concrete curb and gutter could be added on to the
road. He said the proposed improvement would not be a Waste, it eould be
added on.
Mr. Ing Siverts, 6850 Siverts Lane, addressed the Council and questioned.
wny a street improvement pr�oposalcame out of a request to waive the sewer
and water connections. The Publ�Works Director explained that since ihis
requirement had been waived, there are�no other developable properties which
would require utilities. He said the City had been waiting for the improve-
ment of the street until such utilities were weather installed or all waived.
Mr. Siverts said no one_had requested this improvement. The Public Works
Director said the City had not received a petition for this improvement.
He said the City had been maintaining the roadway with the idea there would
be sanitary se�ver and water installed in the future.. He said now with the '
Wai:ver,the C�ity is not anticipating the installation of sanitary sewer and
water on Siverts tane. He said the next step is to install the street
imprbvement., �
A resident of the area said the property to the east has not had the waiver.
The Public Works Director said this is the property being held by the
City of Fridley for park purposes. The City Planager said there is no
`,question that this will be park property. The resident asked if the park
'would want sanitary sewer and water: The City Manager said there is enough
boulevard.so tf�at tF�is could be installed in the future if it is needed.
He said there are 15 feet on each side which is right of way.
A resident of the area questioned why the raad would be needed if.it was
to only serve the two peopie that live back there., The City Manager
- indicated that the people of the area can say the road is not needed, and
tttey can maintain the existing roadway.
Mr. Ing Siverts said he preferred that they not improve the road. He said

and it was acceptabie, Mr. Siverts explained that the City has furnished
two loads of stabilized base, and they are very happy with the conditions.
The City Manager said if the three people would agree on the maintenance
of t.he roadway, there would be noproblem. He said in time there would have
' to be a road installed, and he pointed out it would either 6e now at today's
prices or in the fut.ure at an increased rate.
Mayor Nee said this was brought up because of a policy of tfte City to not
maintain,unimproved roads and alleys because of the cost of this. Ne said
i.f the roadway is not insta)led, the City wou7d abandon the maintenance
of this road. He mentioned no one is presaing for this improvement. They
were trying to make the property owners aware that if the street is not
improved, the maintenance will be withdrawn.
�� The property owner of Tract D addressed the Councii and said.this arrange-
ment wouid be fine with him.
� The owner of Parcel 260 addressed the Council and said he felt the improved
street anG cul de sac would enhance his propert;, but he would not want
to impose the assessments"on the remainder of the people in the area for
�this reason. The City Manager said this wouid be no pr,oblem, but the peopie
of the area would have to take care of the maintenance. He stressed that
if the impr.ovement is installed in the future, there would be an increase
, in the costs.

Mr. Ing Siverts sugqested that if there is any access to the park,that

townhouses. He mentioned that this wouid be a better area for traffic of
this kind rather than Siverts Lane. Mr. Siverts also mentioned there has
been some problem with traffic through the tax forfeit parcel of property.
He.said he had put barriers through there, and they had been removed.
He suggested that the matter of the easterly access to the park be talked
about in the planning stage. .

PUBLIC HEARING ON REZONTNG REQUES7, ZOA #75-03, BY CITY OF FRIDLEY FOR
GEORGE IS IN FRIDLEY TO REZONE FROM M-2 TO C-2; 3720 EAST RIVER ROAD:
The Public Works Director exp7ained that this property was owned by the
City of Fridley, and during this time, it was zoned P. He added, before
this time, it was zoned M-2. He said the request is to change the zoning
to the existing use. He said the proposed zoning does not prohibit, and
it does not specifically allow the current use. �The Plannin,g Commission
recommended approval of the rezoning request.
Councilman Breider asked if th9s property was on a contract for deed with
Mr. Nicklow and the City. The Public Works Director said yes. Councilman
Breider said the City had the option to purchase the property back in the
period of five years, and the City Manager said yes. Councilman Breider
asked if there.is a building plan for this area. The Pub9ic Works Director
said there was no building plan, jus.t remodeiing.
Mayor Nee asked if there was anyone present who had a.ny comments.
Mr. Richard Harris, Chairman of the Planning Commission, addressed the
Council and said he was not so sure that the property should be rezoned to
C-2.. Ne thought it may be better as M-Z. Mr. Harris asked the City
Attorney to clarify this.point. Mr. Harris said he thought ihis would be
spot zoning, and if the City had not granted the title, the rezoning wou7d
not have been recommended.
The City .Attorney said the property is zoned P for public use and would have
to be rezoned. He said the City Would have some obligation to deliver the
title for the purpose the property was sold. He said if the property is

burned or damaged more than 50� it would not be replaced because it would
be non conforming. Fie said this rezoning wauld only be fair to the man
that bought the property.
' Mayor Nee asked if there was any objection from the property owner. The
Public Works Director said no: Mayor Nee asked if there was any objection.
from the adjoining property owner, the Metro Sewer Board. The Public Works
Director sai.d no.
Mr. Nicf: Garaffa said when the property was sold with a stipulation that
the City would be able to take back any improvements or construction
made on the property. He asked if there had been any cons truc t i o rr.
Councilman 6reider said there had been a paved parking lot installed.
Mr. Garaffa asked if the City was eliminating their chanes of getting back
i:nto tfie 1iquor business at this location some time in the future if this
}.s desired. The Ciiy Manager said there would be no problem, the c;ty has
the right to purchase the property for the amount that was paid for it plus
� tfie interest. Mr. Garaffa said th�s current action would not change the
cfiances of pick':ng up ti�e property,and the City Attorney said no.
Mayor Nee questioned how the City could be sure that there were no objections
from the property owner when they had not heard fron� him. The Rublic Works
Director said the owner had signed the application for the rezoning.

PUBL_IC HEARTNG ON_VACATION�RETUEST, SAV�#�5T02n��BNiiDENNQ�n�M�RDDSTR�ETANAEE:
The Public Works Director said the action was initiated 6y a plan for an
addition to the home of Dennis Smerud. He said the addition �vou1d be §
eight to ten feet from the south property line. He said at the time of
application, he found he would either have to apply for a variance or • `
'"request the vacation of the roadvray. Ne said the roadway is not being �
used, and the two adjoining property owners have been maintaining the
area and have�a garden in this area. Mr. Sobiech said from the engineering
standpoint, there are�no objections to thevacation. He said he would
recommend that the City maintain the drainage and utility easement as suggested
by the Planntng Commission. He•said the Planning Commission, at their May 21, y
1975 meeting, recommended 'approval of the re.quest with three stipulations. }
The Public Works Director said there has been a suggestion made that the �
City may want to retain such parcels for tennis courts and tot lots. He c
said he would like to bring this to the Council's attention and also mention . �
there had been no objections to the vacation. �
Councilman Fitzpatrick asked if either of the other two cut off streets in , �
the area had been vacated. The Public Works Director said no. �
The City.Manager.explained that if the City has any desire to install any
tennis courts or tot lots in this area, it should be noted that there is not
much land a�vailable fior park iri this area, and he wou7d like to bring this
to their attention. He said this would be one of the only lots that would -
be barely large enough for the development of a tennis court. He said this
would be a less expensive method for public.use than the acquisition of ,
property. He said this property is not in the center of the area develop-
ment.
Councilman Fitzpatrick said this is the most southerly of the other possib-
ilities. The City Manager questioned which one of the areas had the steep
terrain, and the Public Works Director said this is the one in question,'46th.
The Public Works Director.said this would not be too suitabTe for a tennis
court, but it would be large enough for a tot lot.
Councilman Fitzpatrick asked if all of these areas were previously access
tq HigF�way #A�7. The City Manager said yes.
The City Attorney said there may be a legal problem in this type of action.

the motion carried unanimous7y, and the public hearing closed at 10:21 P.M.
The City Manager questioned the direction the Council wished him to take
� on the. matter. Councilman Fitzpatric.k indicated he believed that if this
� park idea were to be pursued, he thought the 47th easement would be more
appropriate for this .type of plan. He said he didn`t think this would be
a proper imposition on the two property owners.
The City Manager said he would bring the i�mback for vacation.
PUBLIC HEARING ON PROPOSED CHARTER CNANGES:
AND
RECEIVING RESOLUTION FROM DFL CLUB REGARDING THEIR POSITION:
-` MOTION by Councilwoman Kukowski to waiv.e the reading of the public hearing
notice and open the public hearing. Seconded by Cou�cilman Breider. Upon
.a voice vote, all voting aye, P1ayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously
and the public hearing opened at 20:23 P.M. .
MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to receive the resolution from the Fridley
� DFL concerning the Proposed Charter Changes. Seconded by Councilµroman
Kukowski. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion
r carried unanimously. •
Councilman Fitzpatrick asked what would be thepro�edure for the adoption
of the amendments by the City Council. Mayor Nee said it would have to
; be a unanimous vote by the Council. He said this would be done by ordinance.
i
� The City Manager explained that if the Caty Council does not agree with the
recommendations, the Charter Commission would have the authority to submit �
the changes to the voters. •
Mayor Nee asked if the changes should be discussed item by item to determtne
whether there is agreement. Councilman Fitzpatrick asked if the City Council
had to accept the changes unanimously in part or whoie. He asked if it
would be possible for the Charter Commission to review the comments and
submit the change back to the Council.
' The City Manager said this would be possible, or they could submit the
changes directly to the voters. ,
Mr. Dennis Schneider said the Fridley DFL�is technically in favor of the
Charter Amendment for the housekeeping changes. He mentioned some of the
sections tk�ey anticipated to disrupt the petition process.
Mr. Nick Garaffa said he would like to ask the member of the Charter Commission �
who was present at the meeting, Mr. Herbert Bacon, about the section
concerning the attesting to signatures. He said he had to attest to the
signatures on a petition for filing to run for Councilman. He questioned �
, whether or not someone in a referendum could follow this procedure.
He said if someone comes to the door of a home, they assume he or she is �
the person that they say in their signature. He did not believe it a -
go�d practice to have to ask someone for their driverslicense. He questioned
why the penalty is mentioned in this section. '
Mr. Herbert Bacon addressed the Council and said the Charter.Commission's
intent is to see that any petitioner would get this information before he
' goes out to circulate a petition. He said there�are many people that do not
know what they are doing when they go out to get signatures. He said they
do not know what they are going after.
�. Mr. Garaffa said the. City Clerk must take the peti�ion up to Anoka County
, and compare the signatures against the voting registration records. He said
o�ly the� Will they be considered valid. He asked why this type of
� _ __ ;
;
PUBLIC HEARTNG MEETING OF JULY 14, 1975 Page 12
� procedure would be necessary..
Mr. Bacon said the siqnature could be valid, and it could be someone signing
, for their husband or wife. � -
Mr. Garaffa asked the Finance Director if the City takes the petitions up
to the Councy and compares signatures. The Finance Director said yes.
Mr. Garaffa asked why this additional language would be needed.
The Finance Director said the staff are not handwriting experts. He said
they check to see if the signature.is a registered voter, and if it is
obviously not the signat�ire of the registered voter, they will say that it r
is not a valid signature. He said if the signature looks reasonable, it is
accepted because what evidence would they have to challenge it? '
i
Mr. Garaffa said the general rule of the land is that people will be honest.
He stated those people at the polls comparing signatures of voters are not '
. experts either.� � � � x�
Mr. Dennis Sch��eider said the statement does not tell the circulator what
to do, it only tells him if he does not do this right he will be fined.
Mr. Bacon said the stiffer fine would make people think twice. The City
Attorney noted that the current Charter language said any violation is a
misdemeanor, and this is defined by State law as a criminal violation to
be fined up to $300 or up to 90 days in jail. He said in comparison to the
suggested language, he would interpret that it may hav.e been the intent
to lessen the penalty. He mentioned he was not sure that a judge would
consider this language in court.
Mr. Dennis Schneider said he did not think the suggested language would
help the petitioner. He said it may scare him.
_ Council+nan Starwalt asked Mr. Caraffa if he had any quams about attesting
to the signature on his filing petition, and Mr. Garaffa said he•did not.
, He said he knew the people that had signed, and there was no question. '
Mr. Garaffa said he did not think a ve'ry good methad to obtain signatures
would be to cross examine people by asking for a drivers license or
something to validate„the signatures. �
Councilman Starwalt said there are some liars, cheets and thieves in this
world. Councilman Starwal�t sai�d the job of the petition would be number one,
to know who you are talking to. He. said this would add creedence to the
petition,
Mr. Garaffa said he was advised by the City Staff to obtain at least 15 .
signatures when only 10 were needed because some of the signatures would
not be valid. Councilman Starwalt said they would not be valid if they are
not registered voters. He asked if something was wrong with the system of ,
validating signatures.
Councilman Starwalt said a filing petition is a very serious matter, and �.
there ar� other peti�ions that people do not take so seriously. ,
Councilman Starwalt read a portion of the changes on Page 5-I of the agenda'
� and said if no one challenges the signatures, they are considered valid.
Mayor Nee said they would have to be signatures of registered voters.
Counci7man Starwalt said the voters do not fiave to register unti1 election
day. '
Mr. Garaffa said people who sign. petitions are not necessarily bad guys.
He said this is the only regress action that can be•taken if the governing
body wou7d ac� against the public will. He said a showing is obtained '
' by the petition, and this is �ven to the Council to indicate they are ,
doing Something wrong. He said this is done in a fine American manner by
people goin� out and talking to their neighbors and getting their signatures
to back some action. He said this petition is brought to the City Council
to say °see you have the w�rong idea�'. He.said circulating a petition is
hard work and takes a great deal of time. He said this is done by people '
���` who care. He said he had thought that an extra penalty was being applied�

Councilinan Starwalt said if the petitioners believe in their cause, they
should know who is signing the petitions.
Mayor Nee directed Councilman Starwalt's attention to the Pstered �oters.
City Charter that says the signatures must be those of reg" ,
Mr. Richard Harris asked what type of petition this referred to.
Councilman Breider said this would befor initiative, recall and referendums•
Mayor Nee said this may be discriminatory. He added there is no penalty
for fraud in other petitions.
Mr. Richard Harris said the Planning Commission had just received petitions
with people signing both petitions for and against the same issue. He
questioned if this type of petition should also be cleared up.
Councilman Breider said if the Council would receive thousands of signatures,
it would not makz much sense to argue about which ones are valid. He said
this petition,with the amount of signatures,should be.an indication that
the.Council should think twice. He questioned if they should get hung up
on the fact whether John signed for his wife or not. He said he did not
think this was being fair to the community.
Councilman Starwalt said he was not trying to'knock down or out a number
of valid signatures; he did not think th.is would af.fect the amount they
would,receive.

Councilman Breider said he would like the petition signing and validating
procedures something that would be simple to prosecute if the City Attorney
has to do this. Councilman Starwalt said they wa.�d have to be realistic.
Councilman 8reider said the potential is there, but it will take three
votes of the Council to rebuk�e it. Councilman Starvaaltsaid if a paper
came with no valid signatures and no one opposed it, it could be.determined
a valid petition. Councilman Breider said he did not think this had to be
defined any further in the Charter. He mentioned the City Clerk� roll
in validating the signatures and said he thought it would be more appropriate ,
to give the petition circulators a list of the, items to be aware of before
the circulation of the petition. He said the same thing was done with the
people filing for Council that should be done when other peiitions are
circulating. He suggested a pamphiet be made up to describe the process._
He said he thought this would have to be a policY thing rather than within
the City Charter. •
Mayor Nee said they should consider the emotional hazzards circulators
could face where it couid be possible to become mouse trapped. He mentioned
if someone else knowlingly signed a petition falsely, the circulator would
be responsiGle and prosecuted, not the person who had signed. Mayor Nee
said the signature of a spouse is valid if it has been authorized. He
mentioned it is better to not take the spouse signature because the
authorization is hard to validate. He said there are other instances w�iere•
a signature is not accepted as valid because the people do not sign as
they had on their signature card. Mayor Nee sa�d this is reasonably hard
to get the signatures validated in some instances.because if there is a `
petition being circulated, it`is because the majority of the Council is
opposed. Mayor Nee said he theught the0�aeawantedetoadohaedefective�job, but
one. He said he did not know if any p p
they do make mistakes. He said if the idea is to teach the people the
proper process, this could be done by means of a pamphlet and in the pamph�
let it could be mentioned that it is a misdemeanor. He said even if

not know if he would recommend adding this language but mentioned the
violation would have to be fraud or gross negligence.
The Finance Director asked if this could be changed by the Charter Commission.
The City Attorney said it could be sent back to them notifying them of what
had not been approved by the Council, and they could make changes or send

CONSIDERATION OF AGREEMENT FOR APPROVAL .OF RICE CREEK ESTATES AND RICE
CREEK ESTATES 2ND ADDITION:
The Public b�orks Director recalled the Council's attention to the
meeting of several week's ago when the developer-of these additions had
come tn the City Council questioning the escrow poiicy of the City.
He said the developer and the staff had worked out an agreement where
he does agree to pay for the storm sewer construction with the under-
standing that he will be given credit for the projects that will be
constructed and that are being constructed. The Public Works Di�°ector
read and explained the points in the agreement.
Gouncilman Breider questioned if the $3,500 would be enough for the future�
projects in this area. The Public Works Director said he could not say
at this time. He said this amount would result in the cost of more than
$8,OQ per IOQ square feet. He said he could not say for sure that this
will cover the costs.
The City Manager said he could answer yes with the only exception being
time. He said if construction costs do not increase too excessively,
there will be no problem. He said the agreement is quite complete; and
this is a better way of handling this type of agreement. He said the.
assessment or escrow rate would be the highest in the City. He said the
administration is reasonably sure that this will be adequate.
Councilman Fitzpatrick said if the assessments are greater, the Council •
can always assess.
Councilman.Breider asked what would be done in the future storm sewer.
The City Manager said there will be the outlet to Moore Lake. He said �
now the policy is that all new development will be assessed at this level
and the existing property would be leveled at a rate according to the
benefits received.
Councilman Breider asked the City Attorney if there would be anyproblem
in this proposal. The City Attorney said not as he understood it. All
new developments were to escrow $8.00 for 100 square�feet, and any work
would be credited to this 5II.00. He said any assessments would also be
credited against it. 7he City Attorney said he agreed in principle with �

PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF JULY 14, 1975
Page 17
RESOLUTION N0. 12Q�1975 - IN OPPOSITZQN TO RULES AND REGULATIONS OF THE
MUNICIPAL SHORELAND MANAGE�dENT ACT: '
The Public Works Director explained the proposed resolution to be in
opposition to the Shoreline Management Act. He said there will be a
public hearing on the matter on July 16, 1975, and the,material had
been reviewed by the Planning Commission and Environmental Quality
Commission. He said the Planning Commission had some concernd about
the proposal. •
CoUncilman Breider asked if this ��as being adopted by the Department
of Natural Resources,and the Public 4Jorks Director said yes..
Councilman Fitzpatrick. said this would shift the burden of proof to the
c;ty.
The Public Works Director said they neglected the deve]oped City when
formulating the plan. The Public Works Director said it should be left
up to the Cit� to designate a public body of water.
The Public Works Director read and explair�ed the proposed resolution
which indicated that the developed lots in the City would be undersized
and noncoriforming lots according to the proposed .ordinance and �vill
cause definite hardships on the utilizations of these lots. Also, the
setba�ck requirements as laid out in the proposed ordinance would make all
of the structures in the Shoreland Management area noncon;orming structures
and, therefore, unrepairable if over 50% damaged because of inability to
meet the proposed criteria. He also explained that the provisions are
discriminatory against low and moderate income person5 unable to afford
the property due to increased lbt sizes. He also mentioned that the
ordinance shows lack of.coordination of other State Agencies by establish-
ing a number of rules and regulations requiring municipalities to adopt
a set of conflictiny zoning requirements. Mr. Sobiech explained that
the ordinance is unrea.listic to set up a variance procedure for some-
thing that would require a variance in all cases. The Public Works
Director explained the City in the R�solution would make suggestions
for the elimination of these concerns.
MOTION by Councilman Breider to adopt Resolution No. 120-1975 in opposition
to the rules and regulations of the Municipal Shoreland Management Act.
Seconded by_Councilman Fitzpatrick. Upon a voice vote, all votin9 aye,
Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Richard Harris addressed the Council and said the Planning Commission
has asked that the Resolution be carried to the public hearing meeting
on July 16, and he said he planned to attend. He mentioned he would be at
City Hall at 12:00 noon that day and would like a Council representative to
accompany him. Councilman Fitzpai:rick said he would be able to attend
the meeting.
MOTION by Councilwoman Kukowski to make Councilman Fitzpatrick the

Mr. Narris asked if tf�e new garage would match the existing structures on

3. PUBLIC HEARING: REZONING REQl1EST, ZOA #75-03,± CITY OF FRIDLEY: Rezone from
�• M=2 heavy industrial areas to C-Z general business areas , a previously �
public owned parcei, part of Lot 38, Auditor's Subdivision No. 39, so this
property will be zoned to conform with the present use, the same being 3720
East River Road N.E. , �
MOTZON by Lindblad, seconded by Drigans, that the Planning Commission open
the Public Hearing on the rezoning request, ZDA #75-03, by the City of Fridley. .
Upon a voice vote, a11 voting aye, Chairman Harris declared the. hearirig open at
9:55 P.M. . .
• Mr. Boardman said the City purchased this property in 1955. When the zoning
. ordinance was adopted in January, 1956, it was zoned M-2. Our deed was recorded on
this property in 1960, at the time of the building permit, and since that time, the
building has been sold, and it was no longer a public use. The property then reverted
back to M-2 zoning, however, there was a commercial establishment on this property,
and it should have been rezoned to the proper zoning at the time it was sold.
h1r. Harris said th�ere was an add�tion put on this building at the time of
purchase by private ownership. Mr. Boardman said that�'George Is In Fridley' wantPd
to do sonze remodeling.of that portion of the building that used to be the Fridley
liquor store, and in order to do this, the property had to be rezoned.
. - Mr. Lindblad asked
� M-2 zoning? Mr. Boardman
such a use.
'
why they couldn't have liquor establishments in M-1 and
said the zoning code would have to be changed to allow

Planning Commission Meeting - May 7, 1975 _ Pa9� 7 � 3$
I, Mr. Drigans asked what the zoning was.on the surrounding property. Mr. Boardman
said it was all f4-2 and it was owned by the Metro Sewer Board. Mr. Drigans said this
would be spot rezoning. �
�
� �
,
�
Mr. Langenfeld said he thought this operation would need a Special Use Permit
for a recreational facility.
Mr. Boardman said this request had nothing to do with anything that the owner
might need to develop this, property, and any requests needed to develop this property
would have t� come from the owner. This rezoning request Nras just to get this property
into the proper zoning for the existing�use. ��tr. Langenfeld said he sees the sign for
a game room everytime he goes by this operation. Mr. Boardman said that under C-2
zoning, under accessory uses, it does allow recreational facilities which are open
to the public. Their main business would be liquor, so a recreational facility would
be an accessory use.
Mr. Drigans said that if it wasn't that the Metropolitan Sewer Board owned the
property around �nis op�ration, he would be rel,�.:tant to favor spot rezoning.
Mr. Boardman said the effects of having a commercial enterprise in this area
' was perhaps no�t all that great, because this was surrounded by a public area.
� MOTION by Lind�lad, seconded by Drigans, that the Planninq Commission close
� the Public Hearing on the rezoning request, ZOA.#75-03, by the City of Fridley. Upon
a voice voi:e, a11 voting aye, Chairmari Harris declared fhe hearing closed at 10:20 P.M.
� - MOTION by Drigans, seconded by Harris, that the Planninq Commission recommend
to Council approval of the request�for rezoning; ZDA #75-03, by the City of Fridley,
� to rezone from. 1i-2 (h�avy industria�Z areas) to C-2 (general business areas) , a previous-
, �• 1y public owned parcel, that part of Lot 38, Audztor's Subdivision No. 39, so this
property wi1Z be zoned to conform with the present use, the same being.3720 East Ricer
' Road N.E. ,
'
.�

r
� �

�
Mr. Harris said he hoped the Council understood that this was spot rezoning.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, a11 voting aye, the motion carxied unan�mously.
4.� REQUEST FOR TREE REMOVAL: ISLANOS OF PEACE . �
Mr. Harris said it was his understanding that the Parks & R�ecreation Commission
had not acted on this request as yet du��to an oversight at their last meeting..
�
Mr. Boardman said there were two ways the Planning Commission could handle this.
They could table'the request until after the Parks and Recreation Commission had made
a recommendation, or review the request at this time, and suggest denial or approval,
subject to the Parks & Recreation Commission recommendation.
,: �
Mr. Boardman said these were`��•not diseased trees, but in order to get a bridge
in that�would meet the handicap requi-rements, they� were going to have to do some
regrading in the area. They wouldn't know haw many trees they would have to remove
until actual constructionstarted„ They were asking for removal of a maximum of ten
trees, but they hape it will be much less than that, and would make an effort to save
all the trees. It was just in case they have to remo ve some trees, they want to have
prior approval, so that construction wouldn't have to be held up, once it starts.
Mr. Boardman said the City does have a regrading plan, but it doesn't show

the str.eet being vacated, and for. the 12 foot easement in the alley would have `
ta be extended across the vacated street, because of the power lines in this easement. �
Mr. Narris asked the purpose of this vacation? Mr. Smerud said it would enable ;
him to construct an addition to his home without asking for a variance, and as they =
were maintaining this property already, they would prefer to awn it. Mr. Boardman .
said the proposed addition ��ould be 8 feet from the present property line, and Mr.
Smerud was told to either ask for a variance�or request a vacation of the street, and ;
Mr. Smerud chose to ask for the vacation. . �
Mr. Langenfeld said the adjacent property owners to this street had been main- i
taining it for the past 8 years. �
Mr. Harris asked Mr. Archer, the ather adjacent property owner, how he felt �
about the vacation ^f this street? Mr. Archer said he was in agreement to having {
it vacated, and hE had been maintaining the property also.
Mr. Drigans asked Mr. Smerud what he was going to do with the existing garage? �
Mr. Smerud said he was going to tear it down. . �
MOTION by Drigans, sec�nded by Meissner, that the Planning Commission recommend
to Council approval of vacation request, SAV ��75-D2, by Loren Smerud, to vacate 46th
Avenue N.E. between 3rd Street and University Avenue N.E., to allow the construction
` of a 24' x 24' addition to 4603 3rd Street N.E. with the following stipuTations:

of 46th Avenue being vacated. .
2. Retain a 12 foot utility easement in the ex�ension of the alley between
Block 9 and 16, Plymou�h Addition..
3. The existing garage be town down.when the addition with the tuck under
garage is completed.
Mr. Smerud asked what problems he would have if this garage wasn't torn down
'� �'at,that time. Mr. Boardman said he would have to apply for a Special Use Permi�t
for a second accessory building. Mr. Smerud said he didn't know about the restric-
� tions.on a second accessory building, so he would probably tear do.wn the existing
garage. Mr. Meissner said this would not be such a rigid stipulation, that the
very day the addition was completed, the garage had to come down, but he would have
to comply within a reasonable time. Mr. Smerud said he would like to use the present
�� garage for storage while the second garage was being built. .

for the city to usurp the prero�;atives of

RESOLUTION N0.
A RESOLUTION OPPOSING RULES AND REGULATIONS OF TN� MllNICIPAL SHORELAND
MANAGEMENT ACT
WHEREAS, the State ef Minnesota, Department of Natural Resources is
proposing regulations for the management of shorelands within municipal
boundaries in the State of Minnesota, in accordance with the authority granted
in the Laws of Minnesota 1973, Chapter 379 and the Minnesota Statutes 1974,
Chapters 105, 115, 116 and 462; and
'WHEREAS, the Department of Natural Resources pursuant to Minnesota
Statutes 1974 Section 462.362 requires the municipalities to provide for the
administration and enforcement of the Municipal Shoreland Ordinance; and
WHEREAS, the Fridley City Council and Fridley City Planning Commission
have reviewed the proposed rules and regulations as they affect the City of Fridley;
and
WHEREAS, this review has brought forth the following concerns on the
proposed rules and regulations, Chapter Six, NR 82-84:
1. That the classification af the public waters by the Commissioner
is unrealistic and should be left up to the determination of the
City. This would save the additional time, effort and cost involved
in resubmitting proposals to the Commissioner for his dictate.
2. The zoning provisioiis as laid ou� in the proposed rules and regu-
lations are unworkable in the City of Fridley for the following
reasons:
a. The City is almost totally developed and those areas along the
designated public waters have been previously subdivided. These
lots�will be undersized nonconforming lots according to the
proposed ordinance and will.cause definite hardships on the
utilization of these�lots. .
b. The setback requirements as laid out in the proposed ordinance
wo�ld make al] of the structures in the Shoreland Management
Area nonconforming structures and therefore unrepairable if over
50°d damaged because of inability to meet the proposed criteria,
3. The zoning provisions as laid out in the proposed ordinance is
discriminatory against Tow and moderate income persons unable to
afford the property due to increased lot sizes as required by the
proposed ordinance.
4. The provisions of the proposed ordinance shows lack of coordination
of other State agencies by establishing a number of rules and regulations
�requiring municipalities to adopt a set of conflicting zoning
requirements without provisions of precedence (examples: Floodplain,,
Critical Areas, Environmental Protection Act, etc.). •

Resolution No.

, 5. It is unrealistic to set up a variance procedure for something
that would require a variance in all cases. This just increases the
burden on the municipality which is already limited to the amount of
.funding available.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City of Fridley is opposed to
the proposed rules and regulations for the above reasons and suggests that the
rules and regulations be drafted to allow more flexibility at the discretion of
the municipal government and allow the municipal government to implement the
intent of the Municipal Shoreland Management Act in a way that will best serve
the needs of the community, expecially in the following areas:
1. That the classification of public waters be performed by the City and
if the Department of Natural Resources does not agree, they should
prepare the reasoning and data for the changes. �
2. That all platted and/or developed property shall be exempt from the
proposed rules and regulations. . �
3. That where public water and sewer are available, the City should
determine ]ot sizes.
4. That an existing State agency be given responsibility to review and
eliminate conflicting rules and regulations adopted by other
State agencies.
5. That the rules and regulations for developed communities be prepared
' separately to provide a more realistic implementation of the Act,
which would provide that variances be required on a limited
basis.
