OPEN FORUM, VISITORS: Mr. Allen Imsdahl, representing the American Bazaar and Flea Market addressed the Council and requested permisston for a"��lalking Aiactiar" of items from various exhibitor booths. He explained the auctioneer wtll walk from booth to booth to sell the items He said they were trying to stimulate people to come to the Bazaar, as the attendance is low. He commented they would have a bonded and licensed auctioneer and they �ntend to adhere to the rules and regulations perta�ninq to auctions. Mayor Nee commented that he felt this request should go through the normal procedures rather than being requested at this portion of the Council Meeting. The Public Works �irector explained that the American Bazaar h�d encountered some discussion and comment conflicts regarding the Flea Market at the Industrial site. There was an agreement to allow them to provide activities if confined to certain areas, or come to the Council for the requested activity. They came to the staff regarding an auctioneer license, and we indicated that due to controversy of the activity, they should not proceed wtth this type of activity. They called again today, and we felt at the staff level there was not really any problem as long as the automobiles were taken out. Basically, this is an extension of their initial request. Mr. Imsdahl stated that they paid $120 for which they have not been able to have any auction at all. He said they have gone through the channels and were told to check again after the first of the year. Councilman Starwalt said he could understand why he was told to come to the Counctl, based on past history Procedurally, the staff could have taken the applicatton sub�ect to approval. Mr. Imsdahl asked if he should apply again. The Public Works Director expiained that it was the intent of the staff to bring this before the Council to get an idea of how the Council felt concerning this. He said they would proceed through the normal channels. P4ayor Nee asked P1r Imsdahl if this would cause him any big problems, and said that he could be granted th�s request within a week if the staff does not find any pro- blems. Mr. Imsdahl said he would proceed in that direction.

APPEALS COMMISSION MEETING OF DECEMBER 9. 1 A. SHOREWOOD SHOPPING CENTER SIGNS: 6225 HIGHWAY #65 N.E. The Public Works Director explained this request is from Mr. Max Saliterman, through his attorney for variances for signs. This would allow both roof and free standing stgns at the Shorewood Shopping Center The signs presently existing are two 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 pointe� out that with the removal of the pylon sig�, a variance request would not be necessary. They also pointed out that the King Chalet sign shows no useful purpose and that the owner ' has been contacted and an agreement reached whereby the sign would be removed. The Board of Appeals did approve the variance for construction of three roof signs. Councilman Fitzpatrick asked in what way were these signs non-conforming, and the Public Works Director explained that the Ordinance states two free standing signs per structure, and that is what they have now. Councilman Fitzpatrick asked if the free standing signs were not there, could each 6usiness have a roof sign. The Public Works Director said that there would be one for each business in the total consiruction. Perhaps seven or eight could have roof signs. Councilman Ha^�ernik asked if they were requesttng to have three signs at the present time. The Public Works Director said that three signs would take care of the businesses that need signs at this time. Other portions are not ready for occupancy. Councilman Starwalt said that without a doubt there will be other signs for which applicatron wi11 be made. Some are vacant because of the wind storm. He stated he believed it was good that the Appeals Commission removed the blanket request, and he would move to approve the request. MOTION by Councilman Starwalt to concur with the recommendation of the Appeals Commission and approve and grant variances for three new roof siqns at the Shore- wood Shopping Center. Seconded by Councilman Fitzpatrick. Upon a voice vote, all uoting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously. 2. ALLOCATTON OF $500 FOR INFORMATION AND REFERRAL SERVICE � Mr. Bill Scott opened the discussion explaining that this request by SACA, (Southern Anoka County Ass.sL,,r�ce) is for a full-range information and referral service, including Fridley, Spring Lake Park and Columbia Heights. They are asking Fridley to pick up a portion of the costs, which would amount to $500., which would be clirectly related to our commun�ty At present, he said, the County does not have a referral service. The only one in existance is run by the United Fund. REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF JANUARY 5, 1976 �r� ��; , PAGE 5 Mr. Scott further explained that they will also request Spring Lake Park and Columbia Heights to contribute $500 each for thetr portion of the service. The information and Referral Service will be set up to give emergency service to people in our communtty tn need of help by referring them to the proper source. The President of SACA, Ms. 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 Heights. The telephone service will cost approximately $1,500. a year for a couple of lines and 24 hour answering service, which wtll take care of late night and weekend emergencies. Councilwoman Kukowski stated that she did not thtnk anyone could feel the need for this service like she does. She has been listening to telephones ring for a year, and Fridley definitely needs this service. She said she strongly feels the $500 should come out of the City this year. She felt sure they will be getting grants and loans �n the future. Ms. Staupe said that during the Christmas Holtdays, they received calls from about 700 people, and provided food and toys for about 160 families. Calls are coming in every day and presently it is very difficult because they have the telephones at one location and they are operating at another location. She explained that they are only asking for help to get the pro,7ect started. Mayor Nee questioned the possibility of this service being duplicated. Pir Scott said there are none in the County. It is thetr feeling an information and referral service in the community can do a much better �ob. 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 ,7ob they should do. He asked to what extent they are having difficulty in getting telephone � numbers and what are the results of the call Mr Scott said that people who do not qualtfy for public welfare and do not have money to pay for anything, will be a61e to obtain listtngs on all of the agencies in the commum ty that will provide social services to them. Councilwoman Kukowski said that they have calls from people who have to make trips to the hospital and the referral service can provide them with a transportavion agency that could provide this service. Mr. Scott said another example is a child with a learning problem They can put him in touch with someone who could help him in this respect. Mayor Nee asked how the people w-ill know what the number is to call, and would they pu6licize this service. Mr Scott said they would ask the newspaper to pu6licize this for them. Ms. Staupe satd they have requested support in varying amounts from other organtzations 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 willing to provide them with desks, chairs and office equipment to furnish the office. i MOTION by Councilwoman Kukowski to transfer funds and donate $500 to SACA for the Information and Referral Service. Seconded by Councilman Fitzpatrick. Upon a roll call vote, Councilman Starwalt noted Nay, Councilman Fitzpatrick voted Aye, Mayor Nee vo ted Aye, Councilwoman Kukowski voted Aye and Councilman Hamernik voted Aye. The motion carried.

Seconded by Councilman Starwalt. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously. �LCi) REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF JANUARY 5, 197G PAGE 6 Mayor flee asked if anyone could shed some light on the �oint Powers discussion in the Minutes The Public Works Director explained that apparently Co�m Rapids and Anoka are setting up a Jotnt Powers for Cable T1(, and it involved us in that the franchise Ordinance inter-connects with this section. Depending on how we proceed, we could get more information. He said that GTV has indicated that many of the municipalities have not been interested in expanding. The City Attorney said that two or more units of government have authority to have a Jo�nt Powers Agreement. Apparently, that is what they are talking about. DERATION �F APPROVAL OF INTERCEPTOR MAIfVTENANCE AGREEMENT N0. 67 WITH The Public Works Director explained that this is an annual agreement with the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission for maintaining a certain interceptor. Bashcally, it is located �n the South part of the City as noted on page SC. The Agreement provides that we are paid for actual expenses incurred for interceptor maintenance, involvinq actual repair to lines or for cleaning. 7here has been no problem with this type of Agreement in the past and we feel we should proceed with execution. MOTION by Councilwoman Kukowski to approve Agreement No. 67 with the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission for 1976. 5econded by Councilman Starwalt. Upon a voice vnte, all voting aye. "^ayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously. CONSIDERATION OF RESOLUTION #4-1976 APPROVING DRAFT FIVE YEAR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT R M ND UISITI N ND DE EL PMEN P RKS ND PEN SPACE IN THE CITY F FRIDLEY Councilman Fitzpatrick asked where the five year improvement plan came fror�i. The Public Works Director explained that this is a uraft proposal which Parks and Recreation have reviewed. The State requested we subm�t them a draft five- year plan. We tried explicitly to point out that this is only a draft and that changes will be made through the Parks and Recreation and the Council tn 1976 He said it should be pointed out that the Parks and Recreation is aware of these activities and Administration does use this capital improvement program in the budget procedure. Councilman Fitzpatrick said that he is reluctant to vote on what seems to him to be a commitment, and there is a large area left out of it. The Public Works Qirector said we are aware of the shortcomings. We explained this to the state, that this is ,7ust a draft we are submitting, and it will be changed. The City Manager explained that when we submitted the origtnal proposal it was a draft type of proposal, and this one has had more review than that one. It has gone before the Parks and Recreation Commission. Still, we hope in the near future, we will be able to adopt a comprehensive Parks and Recreation plan. There is no sense apply�ng for grants they would not honor because of priority on the housing problem. We hope to have it completed this year. The Planr�ing Commission and Council will have further input into it. A plan which is adopted will have more review and w�ll be up-dated. Mayor Nee said that it suggests that somebody has a plan that has not been told to us. He mentioned concerns of development in Innsbrook amounting to approximately $63,600. The City Manager said perhaps it looks that way. Originally, we worked with the developer in that area and certa�n comm�tments were made which cost as much. This does not mean the City will pay this. The facilities needed will be funded from other sources. The City does not have that kind of money. Councilman Starwalt said there is a rough draft of a capital improvement program for Parks and Recreation wh�ch has not been presented to us and no City sanction of approval. In the Resolution why is North Park spelled out io the exclusion of others. 1 � � � � � REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF JANUARY 5, 1975 f *1 �� I ✓ PAGE 7 The Pu61ic Works Director explained that this is because we are requesting funds and making specific application for North Park It is similar to the Island of Peace acquisition. In this case, we specify money for North Park. He further explained that we need a Capital Improvement for Parks and Recreation for Fridley. The Resolution on page 9 of the agenda bas�cally indtcated Fridley does have a Capital Improvement Program. Councilman Fitzpatrick asked if the Resolution was simply to authorize Jerry Boardman to proceed with application, and the Public Works Director said it allows Mr. Boardman to file a draft copy of the Capital Improvement as part of the total application. Councilman Starwalt asked if it would invalidate the applicat�on if the North Park area was not included in the improvement program. The Public Works Director satd there is no ment�on of North Park This is a draft of a Capital Improvement Program which will include North Park. We have requested $54,000. in other areas of the applicatton. We are outlining where these monies are going to be used. MOTION by Councilwoman Kukowski to adopt Resolution #4-1976 as submitted. Seconded by Councilman Fttzpatrick. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Plee declared the motion carried unanimously. 5- ZING THE ADMINISTRATION TO APPLY FOR FUNDS Councilman Starwalt brought to the attention of the Council the last paragraph of this Resolution. In the last few words, "from other funds available to it" he said he is interpreting this is from provided money and not from tax money. The Public Works Director said that tn paragraph 2, where ii states "through agreements with the Spring Brook Nature Foundation", indtcates we have made arrangements to provide funding for development of North °ark through sources other than the City"s General Fund. The Public Works Director said that there was a s�milar aareement used for the Island of Peace. The City Manager said there is no ornblem that there may not be enough dollars. MOTION by Councilwoman Kukowski to adopt Resolution �5-1976 authorizinq Admim s- tration to apply for funds for the development for "North Park" park property under the provision of the State Natural Resource Fund.
