OPLN FORUM, VISITORS:
Mr. Allen Imsdahl, representing the American Bazaar and Flea Market addressed the
Council and requested permission for a"��Jalking Auction" of items from various
exhibitor booihs. He explained the auctioneer ivill ��alk from booth to booth to sell
the items. Ne said they were trying to stimulate people to come ta the Bazaar, as
the attendance is low. He commented they would have a bonded and licensed auctioneer
and they inter,.: to adhere to the r�ules and regulatior:; peri:aininq to auctio�s.
Mayor Nee commented that he felt this request shoa'd-go through the normal �procedures
rather than being requested at this pori.ion of the CoWncil 1�leeting.
The Public Works Director explained that the American Bazaar had encountered some
discussion and comment conflicLs regarding the Flea Market at the Industrial site.
There was an agreement to allo��l them to provide activities if confined to certain
areas, or,come to the Council for the requested activity. They came io the staff _
regarding an auctioneer license, and ���e indicated that due i;o controversy of the:
activity, they should not proceed with this type of activity. They called again
today, and we felt at 1:he staff level there was not really any problem as long as �
the automobiles were taken out. Easica3ly, this is an extension of i;hpii° initial _
request. _ 3
Mr. Imsdahl stated that they paid �l?_0 for which ihey have not been able to have �
any auction at a}l. He said they have gone through the channels and were told to
check again after the first of the year.
Councilman Starvralt said he could understand why he was told to core to the Council,
based on past history. Procedurally, the staff coulcl have taken i:he application
subject to approval. M��. Imsdahl asl:ed if he should appl;; again.
The Public Works Director explained ihat it was th�e intent of the staff to bring .
this before the Council to get an idea of how the Council feit concerning this.
He said they would proceed through the no�°mal charneis.
Mayor P�ee asked P1r. Imsdahl if this would cause him any big problems, and said that
he could be granted this reqi�est within a week if the staff does noi find any pro-
blems. Mr. :msdahl said he would proceed in that direction. '

Councilman Hamernik suggested that the location of the Council P4eetings also be
designated in the Resolution. He asked why they do not specify the fourth
meeting of the month.
The City Manager explained that the fourth meeting was a conference meeting and
there is no official action taken at this meeting. Also, these are listed in the
City calendar mailed to all dwelling units and businesses along with being posted
on the meetings sch�duled on the two civic center entrances.
Mayor Nee asked Lhe City Attorney if he had any comments concerning 1:lie fourth
meeting being added Lo the Resolution: The City Attoi°ney sa�id that he certainly
can see no harm in ha•ring it included if ihe Council desires, It t��ould be pre-
ferable to have it in the Resolut;on.
Mayor h�ee said we would have difficulty getting the language into the Resolution
for adoption tonight. He said h�s feeliny is that every fourth Plonday that is
available, �ve should have 4 meeting. -
� Councilman Starwalt said that t:here were times when it just was not convenient
t;. for everyone, but they still made the effort to attend the meetings. He said
�i,t there has been more consistency in having the meetings than not having them.
The City Attorney said that if they are going to be renularly scheduled meetings,
it would be better if thcy wcre inclur7ed in I:he Resolution, but if they wcre going
to meet on occasions when the work ioad demanded, it would not have to be in the
Resolution.

,'� !
The !'ublic Works Director explained this request is from Mr. Max Saliterman, through
his attorney for variances for signs. This would allow both rcof and free standing
signs at the Sharel�ioad Shop�in9 Center. The signs presently existing are tvro free-
standing signs and that the King Chalet pylon and the Payless Shoe roof signs are
a non-conforming use. He further stated that the staff point�d out that with the
removal of tlie pylon sign, a variance request �,�oul�i not be necessary. They also
pointeci out ihat the King Chalei sign snows no usefui purpose and that the o�vnPr �
i�as been c��-,tacted and an agreement rea�t��d wherz`y the sign �vc�!]c! �e remaved. �
T��e Board of tappeals did aoprove the variance�fo, construciion of t}�ree roof signs. ;
�! Counc�ilman Fitzpatr�ck asked in �,�hat way were these signs non-conforming, and the
': �Pu�lic 4lorks Director explained that the Ordinance states two free stanciing signs
per structure, and that is what they have now. �Cou�cilman Fitzpatrick asked if the
. free standing signs were not there, could each business have a roof sign. The
PuUlic l�'�i°6s Director said that there would be one for each business in the total
� constrt!ction. Perhaps seven or eight could have roof signs.
Courci�man Hamernik asi:ed if they were reqaesting to have three signs at the
present t�ime. The Fublic Works Directar said that three signs Hrould take care of
the businesses that need S1jIlS at this time. uther portions are not ready for
uccupancy.
Courcilman Stai'W3�t said that r�ithout a doubt there wili be other signs fc�r which
application wili be made. Some are va��nt because of the wind stcrm. He stated
he believed it was good that the Appeais Commission removed the blanket request,
and he ���ould move to approve ±he request.

Mr. Scott further explained that they will also ►•equest Spring Lake Park and
Columbia Heights to contribute �500. each for their portion of the service.
The information and Referral Service will be set up to c�ive emeryency service
- to people in our comnunity in need of help by referring them to the proper source.
The President ofi SACA, t�ts. Joan Staupe further explained that SACA is a practical
set-up to provide information and referral service to citizens of the southern part
of the County. They have a location in which to operate at St. Matthews Church in
Columbia fieights. The telephone service will cost approximately $1,500. a year for
a couple of lines and 24 hour answering service, which will take care of late night
. ' and weekend emergencies.
Councilwoman Kukowski stated that she did not think anyone could feel the need for
this service like she does. She has been listening to teiephones ring for a year,
. and Fridley definite1y needs this service. She said she str�ngly feels the $500.
should come out of the City this year. She felt sure they vrill be getting grants
and loans in the future.
Ms. Staupe said that during the Christmas Holidays, they received calls from about
700 people, and provided food and toys for aboui, 160 fami�Vies. Calls are coming
in every day and presently it is ve:��� difficult br.aus� *hey have ±he telephones
at one location and they are operatirg at another .ocation. She explained that
they are only asking for help to get the project started.
' i• Mayor Nee questioned the possibility of this service being duplicated. �ir. Scott
said there are none in i;he County. It is their feeling an information and referral
� service in the community can do a much better job. There is no way the County can
; maintain adequate files with reasonable costs.

� 'Councilman Starwalt said he had concerns as to whether these funds should come from
� private sources or from the City, and whether they could really do the job they
should do. He asked to what extent they are having difficulty in getting te?ephone
;�- numbers and what are the results of the call.
��__,,, Mr. Scott said that people who do not qualify r'or public vaelfare and do not have
' money to pay for anything, will be able to obtain listings on all of the agencies
in the community that will provide social services to them.
Councilwoman Kukowski said that they have calls from people viho have to make trips
to the hospital and the refer�°al service can provide them with a transportaiion
agency that could provide this service.
Mr. Scott said another example is a child with a learning problem. They can put
him in touch �vith someone vaho couTd help him in this respect.
Mayor Nee asked how the people w�ill know what the number is to call, and would they
publicize this service. Mr. Scott said they would ask the neHrspaper to publicize
this for them.
Ms. Staupe said ttiey have requested support in varying amounts from other organizations
within the City for the referral service. Mr. Scott said the schools said they would
try and participate.
Councilman Starwalt said that he felt the $500. could be reduced if other people were
asked_to help. Ms. Staupe said the schools are wiliing to provide them with desks,
chairs and otfice equipment to furnish the office.

Cauncilman Fitz�atrick asked ti�:here the f?�-e year improvement plan came fl�om.
� �.
7he Public ldorks Director expla�ined that this is a draft proposal which Parks �
and Recreation have reviewed. The State requested we submit them a draft five- ,�;
year plan. �9e tried �xplicitly to point cut that this is only a draft and that
changes will be mad� through the °arks a,�d Recreation and the Council in 1976. He
said it should be ocinted out that the Parl:s and Recreation is aware of these
activities and AdminisCration does use i.his capital improvement proyram in the
budget uror_edure.
Councilman Eitzpatrick said that he is reluctant to vote on what seems to him to
be a comnitrrenc, and there is a l�rge area left out of �it.
7he Public t�orks Director said wc are ati:�are of the shoi,tcomings. We exp7ained this
to the state, that if�is is j��st a draft we ar•e sGbrnittirag, and it wiil be changed.
The City P1anaaer explained that when �,�e subn:it�ed the original proposai it was a
draft. type of proposal; and this one has had more revie�v than that one. It has
gone Lefore the Parks ard kecreation Com;riission. Still, rre hope ir: the r�ear
future, we ;-rill be able to adcpt a comprei;ensive Parks and Recreation plan. There
is no sense applying for grar,ts they l-ro!iid no`. honor because of priority on the
housing problem. We hope to have it comple'�ed.this ye�tr. The Planning Commission
and Counc-il a��ll have fui°ti�er input into it. A �lan +,�hich is adopted �,riil have
more re��ie��r and ��ill be up-dated.
Mayor hee said that it su9gesis that somebody has a plan ihat has not been told
to us. He �n��ntioned co�lcerns of dev�lopment in Innsbrook amountiny to approximately �.
$G3,6�J0.

The Public Works Director expiained �hat this item is a request for rezoning
' . in the southeast quadrant of the intersect�ion of Old Central, Hacl;mann Avenue
�. and tiigliway �65, from C-1S (local shopping areas) to C-2 (general bi�siness areas),
� in order to make the zoning consisient.vrit;h the present use, the present use being
i� a ser�ice station. The Planning Commission ha� a publir heariiig Dece�nuer 3, 1975
� L W and they did recommend to Cauncil approval of the reioninq r•equest, as note�i on
� page 1D of the agencia.
I The Public Works Director further expla�ned that together with this request is a
'consideration for a Special Use Perinit for this service station. Basically, he
said, he eaould like to point out that Union Oil Con�pany initially made this request
a;�E�rox�mately t�vo years ago. Rt that time, thei°e was some concerr about the traffic
problenis in the area. ?oday, the request encon,passes only the service station, and
it is the i��tent of Union Oi1 to rebuild and improve the existing perimeter. The
final plans as,e being drawn up Ly the State Nighway Department for safety imprc,ve-
ments at this intersection as sho��Jn on page iG in the agenda. The pians are to re-
aliyn and update r_urbing and islands for the existina traffic flow in the area,
which will direct ihe traffic flow a little inore srroothly and safely through thP
intet�section. The State High�vay Departr�ent is scheduled to let the pla^s for 1I11S
� construction in February of 1976. Mr, Glenn Hubb�rd of the Uni�n Oil Compan;r is
present to answer any questions we may have. Ne also pointed out that a couple of
the residants of the area were present at the Planning Com;oission I�t�eting indicat?i�g
the�r concern of possible results of the rezonii;9.

PUaLIC HEARING MEETING OF JAhUARY 12, 1976 PAGE 2
Mayor Nee asked if any other me�rUer of ti�e Council or anyone in the audience had
any quest:ons or concerns in this.
Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Hedlund, property ovrners of property adjacent to the service
stati�n i�rere present, and Mr. Nedlund said they oppose the rezaning. He ex-
plained that they felt that this could open up opportunities for quite a variety
of business enterprises that could go into th�s ?ocai:ior: if the service station
moved. ihese businesses we would not ;,�ant to have next aoor to our home. At
the time the service station went iritu business it was properly zoned, but it did
not include the other businesses. He said they feel like they are being rail-
roaded intu a zoning change that the;,� do rot like.
Cuuncilman Stararalt sa?d that he ceuld understand their viei�Jpoint and asked how
long do�rrn the road do they `eel the City should hold up the rezoning For that
sart of thing. Mr. liedlund said that he could not ans���er that quesiion.
Mayer Nee said the question that n�eds fo be answered is can Union Oil accomplish
their plans for rebuilding tivith.out changing the zening. The Public 4lorks Director
explained i:hat 4�ith the present zoning la�•rs if the si;ructure was damaged more th�n
50� by winci or fire, tFey �ouid not rebuild.
Mayor Nee asked Mr. Nedlund if he tivould like to see a new �uilding a.t this location.
Mr. Hed]und replied if we are asking ifi it would be worth it to hirrc to have the
rezoning, r,o it isn't.
Councilmzn Fitzpatrick stated Lhai; it is zoned the way it is n�w to avoid these
other uses. Ne said this ►veni through the P7anning Ccm�nission at some lengths
a ccuple of years ago.
. !
.�
Councilmar. Hamernik said that only restt-icted businesses could ya into that property.
The Public l�orks Director said this is correct, With the parking requirements, and -,
the amount of property hnir, r•eznned, it vrould be restricted. �
�
Mr. Hedlund said that he ciid not think this was entirely accurate. He said that _
the physical size ot the property �hat arculd be rezoned for the service station
would be lfmi�ed. Hovaever, there is a vrhole otner vacant lot that is not asked
to be rezoned, but thai: ii cou?d b� used for a parking �ot, which �•�ou�d al?ow
any type of busine�s tu go in. Co��nciimar� Hamernik asi;�d if this lot ��as on ihe �
south side of the property, and i�r�. Nedlund replied that it is.
Counci�man St��ri�ralt commented that �the r,verall layout of ihe traffic flow, the
signali2a.iion, tne attempt i:o make tni� a better intersection (and there has been
a history of accidents with addi'r,iena? housing and ac:ditional traffic), this con-
cept wou i d see the Ci t,�r ; hrough rrom noti,� on.
Mayor Nee asked Mr. Nu�hard �i' the st:ipuiations pointed out at the Planning Commissior

RECESS:
At this point, Mayor Nee called a recess at 8:00 P.hi. so that tt�e residents
could view the plans and drawings for this project.
RECONVENED:
Mayor Nee reconvened i:he meeting at 8:20 P.M.
Mayor Nee asked if anyone wanted to speak on any part of this project, and there
was no response.
The City Manager commented that by the silence of �t;e public he assumed that the
oenera.l consenses s-�as that: they agreed �-;ith th2 pl�, s. He e>:p]�ined that this
was the time to rnake any comments before the plans are fi'inalized.
I� Councilman Hamernik said he had a couple o% comments. He reminded the �eople that
�. they svill be looking at this wal] years from no�v, so r,ov� is the j�ime to bring up
any concerns they may have. Councilman Hamernik asked tne High��lay Departr��ent �f
; they have completed enough of this type of construction to have an idea o� what the
costs tvill run.
�R
�_.
Mr. Orlich said that at the present time he does not have an idea af the costs, but
they wili have this information IYilP.il the final plans are subm�f:ted.
Mayor Nee nointed out tha± basicall_v this is the result of some years of �-:ork in
the legisl�ture and by conyress, and the Highi�ray Uepa.r tment iias ;•csponded to ifris.
He further commente� t'r�at as the City 6lanager poiiited out, tLere are some drawbacks
with t{�e limitation of ±he. vie�•a, etr. , and that the Hiyh�vay Department makes a
consid�rable effort to make the ���all as attractive as possible through landscapiny,
He said his understanding of the neign�orhood is tnit alrnost everyone ���ants this
projeci and are prepared to take the adverse impact, whatever that may be.
Councilman Starti:alt said he had a question concerning barriers that have been pui
up already in the south part of town, and asked if there were any figures available
indicatiny the effect these walls have on the values of the propert'ies adjacent to
them.
Mr. Or7ich replied that the only method they have of keeping tracE; of this is each
time a i�ome is sold in the area, they have their rig�tt--of-way people g� out and
price the home� in the area that are not located behind a wall and no� behind a
freeway. He explained that there has not been enough built to deter,r,ine this. H�
said they have had some calls from peop.ie considering buyinc; homes in Fridley and
_ New arighton, and they seemed to feel good that the Ci;;y has sho�•rn �rtei°est �and
concern in this situation.

CONSIDEREITION OF A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY OF FRIDLEY TO PROVIDE CATV
SE{2VICE 7C 1�1EI�16ERS OF THE CABLE 1'ELEVISIOV CO��iN1ISSI0i•1:
Mayor Nee said that he has asked for this cons�ideration basically on the premise '�
that it is part of the commission rrember's job and that if they were r,ot on the _, j
commission, several of the�n would not spend the money to have the cable TV in ,
their home. He asked if anyone had any reaction to this consideration.
Councilman Hamernik said thathis reaction would be that we are probably moving
toward setting a precedent of making payments to commissions. He said it might
bring some ramifications. '
Mayor Nee commented that the Ordinance set up does provide fcr reimbursement of
expenses, and he is suggesting that this is a reimbursement. k{e explained that
none of the commission members have requested this, but he does not feel they can
perform their responsibilities on the Cable Commission if they canr,ot watch the
programs. •
Councilman Starwalt said he is not sure he agrees with this. He said he dops agree
with Councilmai� Namernik that we could be settin, up a precedent. He said he is
not sure a person �•�ould have to watch the prograros on a regular schedule to perform
their responsibilities. He further stated th��t he looked upon TV as an entertain-
ment rather than a chore, and by believing that he does not feel that he should
consider this.
Councilwoman Kuko�aski said tiiat it seems to her that it would be a terrible burden
on a conunission metnber not to have the cable. She explained that there are so
many things they have 1:o be careful of and watch �or. It ar��uid be difficult for ""�
a Cable commissioner i:o make ,;uclgment on hearsay if they do not have the facilities �
availab7e to them. The�� should be able to make a decisian wiLh as much going for :.,.3
them as �ossible. She suggested that perhaps we consitier this on a yearly basis,
and approve it for this year.
Councilman fitzpatrick said he agrees with Council«oman t;ukowski. He commented
t.hat he hesitated for a moment as t� whether or not i:hey needed the premium also,
but ��e is inclined to think that they do.

PUBLIC H�ARING MEETING OF JP.NUARY ]2, 1976
PAGE 5
Mayor Nee stated that the Resolution required four votes, and asked if there
was any other discussion.
Counciiman Hamernik said his only con�nent would be paying for the premium service.
There again, he said, it is a privilege, or it is a choice, as to whether one
wants to buy i:his as a citizen, and he questions whether w� should pay fo�, this
service for ttiese people. He felt they haa�e to ha�de input from the public, andthe
public should probat>ly give them the feedback th°y need.
Councilman Starwalt said that he i�as discussed this with a fevi peopie, and he
received some violent reactions, both pro and con. If these•people are provided
this service, would this enable them to enccurage people to sign up for this
prerri um.
Mayor Nee said tnat their jab does not include getting custor��ers for the Cable TV.
Goimcilrnan Starwalt s�aced that he agreed, but th�� is one of the comments he
heard. He fui°ther stated that he did not believe the members needed Lhis service
in orciei� to ire valuable memoers o�� Lhe commiss�ior�. -
Counci?man Fitzpatrick said he would like to reii:erate one poin±. If all five
of the members ali°eady had the cabie, he would not be in a hurry to pay the bill,
but i* would bother him if people �-rere acting or a cominission who did not have the
cable aizd did not �vatch it.
Councilman Hamernik. said he would like to reiterat2 the ��amifications if this
service were provided. He questianed the position o� the Parks and Recreation,
as they are "watchdogs° also, and should they hav° one m�mber of the family
participate �r every activity, and in return receive free athletic fees, etc.
`� Mayor tiee suqyested possibly eliminating the premium service, and considering the

Mr. Dave Goodwin, general manager, was present to present the request. He explained
the proposed metal building is being planned to accomodate the material that is

Mr. Goadwin exglained that his company xemanufactures parts for vehicles and the
scrap iron is placed outside until the scrap truck can pick it up. He said that
they also have one 18,000 gallon and five 1,000 gallor. chemical tanks that they
now have in a tin shed that they would like to get into a more permanent structure.
� Mr. Plemel asked how big the pr_oposed building would be and also if it would be
vzsiule from Main Street. Mr. Goodwin stat�d tr.at they are not totally committed
on ttie size of t�ie building yet but they are lookinq at a 40 foot by 100 foot
building that is constracted so it can be added onto ai� a later date if the need
� arises. He added that tlie peak of the building would be higher than their existing
bui�ding but b�cause of its location it would not be visible from Main Street.

Chairwoman Wahlberg noted the Board had received a letter from Reserve Supply Co,
5110 Main Street, indicating they could not appear at this meeting but that they
wanted the Board to know that they had no objections to the variance request.
MC3TION by Plemel, seconded by Kemper, to receive the letter from Reserve Supply Co.
Upon a voice vote, there beinq no nays, the motion carried.
Mx'. Goodwin stated they haa talked to both Full.erton Metals, property owner to the
north, and Reserve 5upply Co. and there were no oLjections from either business
on the variance.
bir. k�lemel r,oted that the existing buildings f_or both Dealers Manufacturing and
Ful:ier.ton Metals were closer to th� lot line thar. the prcposed building would be.
Mr. Goodwi.n said these'bui_ldi.ng mtist nave been �uilt before the Code required a
20 faot side yard sethack.
� � The Minutes of the Appeals Commission Subcommittee Meeting of Dec. 30, 1975 Pa 2�
Chaa.rwoman Wahlberg asked when coristruction would start on this building. Mr. Goodwin
�� said they had hoped to start on it two weeks ago but because of the needed variance
they will probably miss building this winter corn��letely and start next spring.
�
�
'
Mr. Kemper asked if the har_dship was more efficient use of the land. Mr. Goodwin
said the hardship is the problems that will be created by setting the building
farther in from the lot line as their existir�g building has doors on the back
that taould be restricted.
MOTiON by Plemel, seconded by Kerr�per, to closn th� publ.ic hearing. Upon a voice vote,
there being no nays, the motion carried.
Mrs. Gabel said she was in favor of inside storage as there is too much outside
storage by businesses. Mr. Plemel said the variance to allow the building would
improve their housekeepi.ng, and the existing building is closer to the lot line
than the proposed building would be, and the entire back yard is screened.
MUTION by Gabel, s�conded by K�nper, to approve the variance request for a side
yard setback f�om t0 feet to 8 feet. Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, the
motion carried.

,
�
NOTiON by Kemper, seconded by Plemei.d to receive the memo from Mayor Nee. Upon a
voice vote, there being no nays, the motion carriecl.
Mr. Plemel. questioned if the intent of this memo meant that the Board now had
f�nal action on sorie varian.c2 requests. Chairwoman Wah]_berg said the Board had
as;ced to have final action on resideirtial. rec�uests whe.re there were no objections
from the adjoining property owners or the City statf and the applicant agreed with
the Board's decision and any stipulations. She not�ed that the Board had not been
infornted as yet whether this change h�;d been'made officially ?n the Code or not.
NL. Kertper stated he appreciated the fact that I�ayar Nee took the time to write
this memo. He felt Mayor Nee had same saqe thoughts and. he felt that as he reads
over the memo , that it wi11 help him do l�a.s job better as a member of the Board.
Mrs. Gabel stated that she felt that just because there are no objections, that
� doesn't make tne variance right and she fe7_t that at times the Board should take
a better laok at the requests.

'
'
Chairwor.lan Wal��lberg dgreed that they should I.GGk at the variances total impact
�n tr�e City instead of just the surraunding neighborhood. She said the Board
would �.ike to thank the Mayor for taking the tirne L-o write the memo and also
for the tYiought that went into it.

APPROVE PLAt�NING COT�MISSIO(� MINUTES: DECEP•9�3rR 17, 1975
Mc�TION by Drigans, seconded by Peter�on, that the Planning Commission
approve the minutes of the Decemb�r 17, 1975 meeting as amended.
Mr. Scofit said he would like to ciarify some th�ings about S.A.C.A. that
were �rought out at this meetiny. He said there was a recommendation that
thzs be a County� projec�, but the County didn't want i;o get involved in an
area-wide informationand referral service. 7he information ��id referral
service proposed by S.A.C.A. ��ould be more local than area-wide, and would
provide tl��e service for local residents. He said the City Council did allorate
the �500 to S.A.C.A. and they hav� since ��en to the Columbia F{eights Hum�n Riahts
Commiss;on, where_they �vere v,�el1 received, with no fii�aT decision on ihe ailocat�on
of funds. He said that the CET/� employe� that was working for t�ie Human
Resources Commission said that her first finding was th�zt an informat�on and
refcrral service was needed in Fr�idley.
Mr. Drigans said that he felt this service was going to be utilized by
the citizens oi Anoka County. Mr. Scott said this service ����ould oniy be n�ade
known �in ihe cit�es in Southern Anoka County, Snrir�g La4;e Park, Columbia f;eigf-�i,s
and Fridley. Mr. Driga»s said he felt that this was openir.g Pandora's Box because
this organization had addifiional ideas, and so fa��, we were the orly City who
was part�cipating in �:his funaing, and he iiiought they ��iould b� back for addii:ional
funding. He felt that aii the no�-prefit org��niza�tiot�s in Fri!dley would fee;
that they had the same right �:o get fund�ng �=ron� th� City .for their r��. �!^OjE'Ct
ana he thougf��t tt�er� should be a line drawn someplace. Ne said he thoughi: it
was a go�d idea and it was ��eeded, but was this wha�t our tax dollar was supC�osed
to 54 going �or? He thought there could ha°�e been some otycr �yp� of fund ra;sing
tried beiore they came �:0 1:V�e C�ity.
Mr. Narris said he feT�: that how the City spent tf�eir money was a ma�te►° of
priorities. ° � .
Mr. 8ergman said that on page 11 under nev� appointn�ents to member conui�;ssions,

Planni•ng Co►nmi.ssion Meeting - January 7, 1976 � Page 3
DEVEL�JP��IFNT OF PLII^�hING CCMh1ISS i0N_' S GOALS AND OCJECTIVES
2F
Mr. Roardman said he would like to c�xplain i:ne direction he would like
to se� the goals and objectives take so they would fit in with program budgeting.
Minneapolis has a policy guide type program that he would like to use as a
format in helping to set up the Planning Commission goals and objeciives. It has
sei; up a certa�in goal ��ith the objectives, and from that they have set up their
principle policies on it, and with these princip�e policies, they set up their
program policies and also illustrative targets and performance criteria. They
then sho4v hova they vrili fit into program budgeting. He said that in this way
we can be sure that i;he goals and objectives that are set up are related to the
budget as they should be.
Mr. Qoardman said that when the Planning C�mmission goals and objectives
have been determined they vaould -rit very nicely into this type o% system, because
by setting up i;h�se goals and objectives, and then breaking them down into policy
and implementation programs, you would already have programs that they were
wor{:ing on. It ��vill give a good aid in es�ablisf�ing aur priorities. !r!e know
how much money ���e will have in the cominq uears, and we can brea{: it aown into
priorities that we have listed ur�der our goals and objectives. He thought this
t�vas a good directian to thinl< about.
Mr. Peterson asked if the praposed h�using plan would be part of the Planning
Commission's goals and objectives? Mr. [3oardman said this was the next thing
he wanted to discuss, He said th� Planning Con�mission should take some kind of
a s�and on the goals and objectives in th� housing plan befo�°e this plan goes to
the City Council. .
MOTION b� Drigans, ssconded by Scott, that the Planning Comr�ission receive
the rought draft or ihe Comprehensive Housing P1an. Upon a voice vote, all
voting aye, the motion carried unanimouslu•
h1r. Boardmai� said the Planning Commission would not be discussing this plan
unti7 they had input from the member Comm�ssions.
Mr. Lan�enfeld asked if the way the goals and objectives 4vere incorporated
inta the housing plan 4vas the way other gaals and objectives would be worked into
other plans. Nlr. aourdman said that when the goals ancl objectives �-�ere establisheu
by i;he Planning Cemmission and the City Council, then these goals a>>d objectives
would be the goals and object�ives of the City. With comprehensive planning,
we t�ould plug those goals and objectives into that plan.
Mr. Dr�igans askea �9r. E3oardman �:o explaiii to Lillian Meyer, representative .
oi' the League �f 4don;en `:�oters, ���rhat had �een done on �;he goals and objectives
b���the member Commissions and where they were in this wl�ole prograin. Mr.
Peterson said �ha�; Ms. n1eyer had been present at i;he Par�:s & Recreal;ion Commissian
meeting when they had i�rorked on their goals and objecti��es. Mr. Qonrdman said
that up to ti�is {�oint, the City had never establishc�d v�iable goals and objectives
i:o determir�e a,�h�t direction they should �;ake in i:he future. He said the thought
behind the i�e�rganizai.�on of the Planning Cominission ��as that they become more
ii�volved in the �olicy ciecisions and recommendations to the City Council. As
they are thc main plt�nr�ing Lady, they shouid be �involved in future plar�niny. It ,
tv�s cieter��;ineu that t��e first, thing they ���ould r�eed w�uld be goals ai�d objectives.
Th��se go�l s and object�ives ;�rc�uld set the pace ancl ��ol icies t,o be establ ished for
the next 10 to 15 years, He said that each member Commission madc t-heir

recommendaiions to the P'lann7ng Commission on the goals and objectives for
their particular area of interc�s�t, which were reviewed by the Planning Conm�ission.
Now it was up to i:he PlanninQ Cornmission to start putting.these things together
to detennine some viable goals and objec�;ives. These will then go to the City
Council. �
Mr. Peterson asked t�rhat format th�y wer� yoing to use to establish their
goals anc� objectives? P1r. Boardman said thzy would follow the format that he
had mentioned before as a policy guide he had received from Minneapolis. He
said he had copies of this guide ior each member of the Commission which they
could si;udy to see hoiv this appTied to what they were trying to do. He said
the goal areas could be environ�l�ent, parl;s & recreation, human resources, health,
housing, etc. The first thing they would i�ave to establish were the goal areas.
He said these could cover broad areas or specific areas. Mr. Scott said he liked
this iorr�at.
There was discussion by tl�e members o� the Planning Commission that the goals
and objecti��es that h��d been es�:�blished '�y member Commissions be cambined and
used as,a beginning by �he Planning Commission in establishing their goals and
objectives. "
Mr. Qergman said he would like to take all the comments made and combine
them in a rrotion. He said he didn't see why they should try to do something as
a group that administration could do in one tenth of the time and in very good
•fash�on.
190TION by Beryman, seconded by Peterson, that the Planning Commiss2on request
of. t17e ad;ninisLration i:hat Lhe yoals un� c:i�Jectives as develop�d b� ,-nember Commis-
sions be grouped or subjectized as identzfzed b� tl�ese goals and objectives, and
bring them back to the Planning Commission in an org-anized, consolidated fashion,
eJ_iminating duplications, for P.Iann.ing Com�rnission review.
Mr. Peterson said tr7a�: tne P�anning Commissiara would still have the ind�ividual
packets of th� original goals and objectives of each Commission so that if they
felt that something the�r particular Commission i�e�lt strongly about �vasn`t included
in this c�nsolidaiion, that Cominission m2mber could bring it up at �he time of
the review. i�ir. Langenfeid said he wouldn't war�i ih� ?f�tent o� same of the memher
Cammission's goals and objectives conlpletely changed or lost in this consolidation,
b�t he thought �his 4vas zhe best wav to sLart.
P1r. Scott said he 4vould speak against tf�is motion, because he thought that �y
asking sta�f to e,tabl�ish the yoals we would be iosing the citizen inp�t from th�
plannir,c� proc.ess ��rhich he fei�; shou1d be a conc?rn of the Planning Commission. He
said that if the Planr�ing Co���i��issior 4vould estahlisl� th� goal areGs, the s�;atements
that would foiloi� tho5e goals could be sortcd out �later. He said he thought they
should get staff guidanre an the goal areasy rat;her than i�ave ihe staff gu�de us.
He didn't �;hink it woui� be a �ur�ensome tasl� for this Commission Lo detern�ine
it's broad c�oaZ at°eas. Ne said the goai statements coulc� be so�°i:ed out later.
Mr. Be�,gman said he ��ias not asking aciminis�ration to determine the goal a�°�as
becau�e i�e though� tney wer� already spelled ou� in the member Commission's gcals
and o�jectives. hie ��a�,s just asl:ii�g the st:aff to organize the objectives ur�d�r
the goals aZready es��ablish:.�d so tiiere wou�d�;'t be cl�lplicai.;ion. He said t�e t�lanted
ih� goa�s and or�jectives conibined �rLo a for�n��t tha1; thc Planninc� Commission could
cieal aritf;.- h1r. Lar�q�n%e]d said he ui��n`t ieel tha� in anyway ti�is mi�l;ion aaas

�J
Planning Commission Meetinq - January 7, 1976 Paqe 5
- ? ��
Mr. Peterson said he had seconded the motion because he felt the member
Commissions had already given the direction i:hey wanted to go, and he felt the
member Commissions had more citizen participation in formulating their goals
and objectives than the Planning Commission. �
Chai rman Fiarri s asE:ed Mr. Qoardman i f they vrere goi ng to di scuss t��e goal s
and objectives of the proposed housing plan at this meeting. P•1r. E3oardman said
he though�; they would. Mr. Peterson said hc thought this question was out of
order because he didn't think they should be discussing anything in the proposed
comprehensive housing plan until they got input from the member Commissions. Mr.
Eioardman said that it could be possible that the Planning Commission would have
more goals ihan were brought out by the member Commissions because they ►Ni11
cover a broader area. He sdid he would like to have the housing goals discussed
at this meeting, because we a1ready know that will be one of the goal areas of the
Planning Commission. The Comprehensive Housing Plan is now in the process of being
reviewed, and the yoals and objectives for hausing have already been approved by
the member Commissions. He said the Planning Commisssion already had input from
the member Commissions on housing, and he thought they should get into these goals
and objectives before i;hey have the publi�: hearing on the proposed Comprehensive
Housing Pla�,.
, � Mr. Qergman said he would like to clari�y his motion. It was merely to
� request that the City administration do some grouping under subjects already
quite broad in scope. He said there were a 7ot of duplications, and he thougnt
staff could do this much faster than ��re coula at this meeting, without losing the
� context of the total gcaals and objec�ives, a.nd asking the staff to present this
back to us. This would give the �lanning Com,>>ission the opportunity to check
it a_gains� what our own Commission had recommended. He didn't see hot�r they could
�� lose anything with that checkina oapot°t�nity. He said �wha�t Mr. Beardman had dor,e
' with the goals ai�:d objectives ii� tf�e p� oposed housing plan i�vas what he ��anted don�
with a11 the goals and obj�cti�aes. He said tha�L at �;he Community Development
� Commission meetii�g, they haci checked the goals and objectives in ihe housing plan,
, and felt that none cf the context of their Com»>ission had been 1ost. He thought
this would save the Planning Commission a 1ot c� time. Mr. Scott said he thought
he had misunderstood the mot�on.
.__.
�
'
'
'
Mr. Drigans said he thought one of the things that had been overlooked �,n�as
the timing. He said that when f;he member goals and objectives were reviewed by
the Planning Commission, there t�rere suggested changes and additions made, and
he had never found in any of the member Commission minutes that these changes or
additians have ever been address�d by the n�em�er Commissions, so he didn`t see
how a�ministratian could take the original goals and objectives and t�aork from
them, Re thought it was important that thE Plan��ng Commission had speni; mar�y
hours reviewing the goals and objective�, bu�; he hadn't seen any revisions as yet.
Mr: �s�ardrnan said he didn't tl�ink �1iis was supposed to be a question and
answer type thing where the Commission vlould serd up tf��eir recommendations for
goals and objectives and the Planning Commision would send them back for reconm�enda-
tions for changes, so that each Commission ����ould send up goals and objectives that
were pl�asing to the Planning Conrnission. This was just meant to be input from
tt�e member Convnissions, and if the Planning Commission ��;ants� to make changes on

felt that the Planning Camn�ission had not seen the fruit of their work on i:hese

Plannin Commission Meeting - Januar 7, 1976 Pa e 6_.
-- 2 I
Mr. Qoardman said that uncicr the reorganiza�.ion, the Planning Commission
was gi ven the sol e responsi bi 1 i i;y fo�r rect�m�nei;di ng pol i cy deci si ons to �hc Ci ty
Council. Member Commissions may be asi;ed by the Planning Commission for,their
recommendations on po1icy dec�isions, but the primary function of the member
Cor��issions a�as the impleinentation of policy decisions.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, a11 voting aye, the motion carried unanimously.
Cbairman Harris said he thought they should talk about housing goals.
Nir. Dt�igans asked if t��e housinc� goals in the com�rel�ensive housing plan were
taken from the original recommendations, or if the changes recommended by the
Planning Commission had been it�corporated into them. Mr. goardman said they :
had been tal:en fl�om the origina1 goals and objec.tiv�s as proposed by the member
Commissions. Mr. �ergman said his Com mission had revie��red the housing plan at;
their las± meeting and had paid particular attention to the housing goals and
objectives. Ne said they had recommended that some changes be made. We also
suggusted that they drop.the Commission titles. He said the Cammunity Development
Co►nrnission �aas satisfied with the goals and objectives in this housing code,
and he thought each Commissioner could revievr �it i:he same way wP�en th� goals and
objectives come back in groupings fl�om the adminisiration. ��1r. BoardiTian said
the Commission headings wou1d be dropped, but in the rough draft they felt they
had to have something to re1ate to.
Chair�nan Harris asked wl��en they wanted to get off the subjec� of procedure
and get on with the housing goals and objectives. �f�lr. Bergman said he thought
the housing goals and objectives should be included ti��ith the other groupings
they were asking the a.dn�inistration to prepare. '
Mr. La�g�nfeld said he thought they might have to drop their a�her goais
;ust foi� the �resent and get going on the housing yoals and objectives. Mr.
Scott said he aqre�d ti,�ith this s�ggestion. h1r. Bergman said that the Community
Development Commission would s-ti11 be reviewing the Cornprehensive Housing Plan,
with these goals and objecti��es, at their next meeting, and it seemed out of
context for the Plani�i►�g Commission to be reviewing them at this meeting. Mr.
Boardn�an said the hausing gcals and object�ves were recornmended by the member
Commissions to the Plannina Commission, and the °lanning Commission had revievred
those recominendai;ior��s, so he qidn't feel i�L was out of context for the Planning
Commiss�ion to revie��r the goals and objectives oi the comprehensive plan at this
meeting. He s�id i;he only reason these goals and objectives wer� used in the
plan t�vas because the Planning Cornmission ha�n't se� up any goals and objectives
on housing. Ii= we czon't ao this at this »>eeting, i�JE iNl�� only r�ave the January
21st mEetin� �o review the entire comprehensive plan before the public heariny
on Januar.y 28tri. Mr. Qergman asked Mr. Qoardman if he feli; all the duplicai:�ons
had been eliminated. Mr. Soardman said he couldn't say that all the duplicatior�
I�a�l bee�; e�imina;.ed, but pretty much sa. He said ±here ��ere fo��r goals from t��e
Communii;y Developme;7t Commission, and one goal from Human Resources, and tYie yoals
didn't have to be -�pproved as they were �laid out. He said he wanted the Planning
Commiss�or to look at the c�ntents of each goal and see if that �rras the direc�tion
they w�nted to go.
Mr. Feterson said tha� goal �13 sta-tes "Develop, maintain and enforce a
planned, ���11 balanced land use system". Ne felt that with 1;his goal you would
have to be ia�king a�: open space at�d park areas, because housing without parE:s
or park5 without i��ousing, �•.as rot consisi;ent, yet in the Parks & Recreation
Commiss?o�i goals a��d cb,;ectives, we have a goal of providiny people _orienl;ed

parics and yet there was nothing said about that type of land use under goal ;�3.
Fie sai�j �:hat he �greed ��tith Mr. Qerg�ian tf�at until the grouping was done on al1
the c�oals and objectives, h� thought the Planning Con�r�ission would be wasting
their time. �
MD'ION by Peterson', seconded by Iangenfeld, that the Planning Comrni,ssion
✓ take a 5 minute breaJ�, and t1.e.� come back and from 10:00 to 11:00 P.M. discuss
the hou ing goals to give st,�f�' somc� direc:tion. '
Mr� Boardman said the housing goals are of primar,y importance in putting
the Com rehensive Housing Plan.together.
h1r Harris said the survey tells us pretty much G�Jhere ave were. We need
to ask urse1ves G�;�hat ti��e are �;rying to accomplish anci where v�e want to go from
here.
UPON a t�o.ice vote, a11 vo�.irzg aye, ihe motiorz carried unanimously. �
Ch it°man Harris ueclared a recess at 9:45 P.M. and reconvened the meeting
at 10:0 P.M.
P�r Boardman sai d he woul d rather �ee son;ethi r�� i n the goal s 1 i ke .t�rhat was i n
the I�in eapolis policy guide ►��hich states "Assure individuals and families,
•t�vithaut discriminat�on, a choic� of ���ell-desi�ned types of housing in varied,
� distinc ive and satisf,ying living environments at costs whicr� do not compromise other
essenti 1 needs and wants".
l•SD ION by Scott, seconded by Beryman, that the Planning Corrtmissian approve
Goa.Z #2 t•rit1� the addition of. "without disc��m,ination". This goal svould th��.�
read "P avi�ie for and maintai.n, wztl�icuf: discrimination, a diversity of suitable
housing and living environments within the community".
Mr. Langenfeld asked if this would be the primary housing goal. Mr.
Scott s id they might come up v�jith another goal statement later an.
A VOICE V(�'la:;, a.Zl vo� ing aye� t.he motian carried unanimously.
Cf7airman Harri� asE:ed if th�y ��ranted to discuss objectives un�er this goal.
Mr. Scott said he a��uld lil:e to se� something incluc!e� abou�t the neig�iaorhood

about tl�e promoti�n of �i��cier�r°ound u�;ilit7es �ue �;o inc1em�n�. <<reather conditions.
Mr. Langenfeld said that thiS C�Il1pY�ehensive 4�ous �ng Plan ►�ertions �Nha�t has

in the goals� whicl� ��rculd prevent that; happening in l=ridlcy.
h1r. Fe�:erson said he �NOUld 1 i ke i,o see ai 1 si x goal s adopted because �i:h�y

� Mr. Peterson said he though� the goal was still primai�y, and this statement
could be put in before i:he objec�ives. Mr. Qergman r.elt that the objectives
- were not identifications of problems. �
'Mr. E3oardman sai� the goal shouTd be the primary siatemeni. Our objectives
. should state where ti�re G•rant to go, 4Je have to provide housing at costs which
do nat comprorn;ise other essentia7 wants or needs. We've got to take a look
� at low and moderai.e income housing. He have to look at quality living environment.
� No4v do you ach=ieve this? i'he Planning Con�nission t,ro«1d also have to look at
preservation and the updating of exis�ing neighborhoods. .
Mr. Fet�rson said tha1; when you talk about lova and moderate income housing,
then ,you have i,o also talk about distribution.
Mr. fiarris said he liked the first objectives under Goal �2 which says they
should provide a wide range of adequate housing opportunities for people of all
income l�vels, ag� grou�s, and e�;hnic backgrounds.
Mr.�Drigar�s said that when you talk about the distribution of low and moderate
income housing, �he first thing that peopl� thinl: about is sub-standard housing.
May�e we should add quality built low and moderate income housing. Mr. Bergman
said that if the Planning Commission ��ras goinq t� address this point, it !�ould be
r;ard to state it so that no one would take exception to it. Mr. Boardman saici
Fridley was developed so far already, we cas�'t talk about distribution of low
and moderate income housing units, we have to be talking about the distributian
oi �eople. Mr. Bergman said they were m�ssing one of the points in distribution
and that v:�as t+� avoid the occuranc� ef a ghetto, and that is housing. Mr. Langen-
feld said it.could state somewhere that these goals and objectives �Nere peopie
oriented. Mr. Scott said maybe we shouid come right out and say ghetto, i�f this
was what the l��w and moderate income statement was about.
Mr. Peterson said that "people" could probably be worked into our goal
rather than just in some of the ohjectives. Mr. Bergman said that Goal �2 coa?d
read "Provide for and maii�tain, urithout discr;m�ination, a suitable housing and
living environment for a11 peaple within the community." P-1r. Boardman said tfiat
saying "within our communi�Cy" see�}�zd restricting, beca�ise these housing goals
should apply to anyone wanting to n»ve into F�idley, and did not follow the
metra�olitan concept idea. �

SU3JECT: FIf�AL BUDGET ADJUSTMEPITS FOR T}iE YEAR 1975
DATE: JANUARY 15, 1976
A brief summary of seme of the reasons budget adjustments are necessary are
as follows:
LEGISI_ATIVE; IPlCLUDIP�G CITY COUNCIL AND PLAi��ING COMMISSIOTJ :
This departn�ent has a budget overaye which will be transferred to other
depar�ments. .
LEGAL:
One of the reasons fo�^ lega� n2edi ng $3,200 addi t�i onal funds is the $2 ,530
billing for the Glover Lawsuit. ?r addition, regular legal ci�arges {�ave rui�
som�what over budget,
FT RE :
The Fi re Depa►�tmen�t i s over tnei �, budget in the personal servi ces area. Tiiis
is principally re�ated ta fire calls. R�gu?ur salaries are �7,622 av°r the
budget. Thi s i s rel ated to Ci ty eir�pl �yees who are al so Fi remen , c��a rgi ng ti me
t� the Fire Qepartment while they were on fire ca11s. This has been �harged
to ten�porary salar7es in the past, h�wev�r, anas�riucf7 a� t��ey are per�nanent
C�ty employees i�G gce5 in tiie per•manent ei.�;�loyee categar,y. Tnis would make
na aifference in their total budget, exc�pt that this year �heir fire calls are
over budget even �vitho�i charging the City ei;�ployees ±ime to tne temporary nelp
cateyory where ti�e baiance of the fi��e cal7s ar�e charged.
The amount for emp�oyee re7ated insurance (wor�men's compensation and
hospitalization; v�as under budgeted for the year 1975 and is over budgzt. Alsa,
the amount charged aaainst the clepartment for pensicns is over b�dget. These
two categot�ies are c�ver in part because of the fact that otiier departments time
is charged to the Fire Depar�:m�nt an� nc consideration was taken of the associated
fringe benefi� costs.
In the other expense category, commun � cati ens are over by almost $5,f30Q. I
understand part of tnis cost re�lates fo the iie in at Anoka County. Ot��er expenses
taken as a�vhole are over budget by �2Q9.

improved four grades from "Ba" to "A-1" and we have successfully conducted
15 bond sales totaling $i5,230,00Q in your behalf. In addition to the rising �
c-ost of doing busin�ss, Congress recently created a board to establish rules .

Securiti,es and Exchange Commission type disclosure. (Some eastern bond offerings
went bidless for lack of suff�cient information�} The disclosure requirements �
