. Mr. Nick Garaffa, 6750 t•lonroe Street N.E., stated he would like, as part of the Council's
resolution, an emphasis on mass transportation with weekend bus transportation between
the major shopping centers, such as Northtown and Brookdale. He felt some mechanism
should be considered as feeder transportation, such as mini-buses, to the major bus
routes.
Mayor Nee stated the City administration has drafted a proposed letter dated April 12,
1977 to Mr. James Harrington, Commissioner of the Depar�ment of Transportation,
regarding this Transportation Plan, and proceeded to read the letter.
No other persons in the audience cor�nented on the Transportation Plan.
Councilwoman Kukowski stated there is a problem with the barriers being installed on
the freeway and felt this item should be raised in the Council's response to the
Transportation Plan.
With reference to page 2, paragraph 5 of the April 12, 1977 letter to Mr. James
Harrington, Councilman Hamernik felt the last sentence could be deleted with more emphasis
placed on paragraph 6 regarding the Northtown Bridge Crossing. He indicated he would
like to avoid shifting traffic from Eas1: River Road onto Highway 47 (University Avenue).
He felt the Council's response tc the Transportation Plan is io contribute ideas towards
a long-range comprehensive plan and felt the emphasis on the Northtown Corridor probably
would be the best solution to some of *he traffic problems existirig in Fridley.
Councilman Kukowski stated she favored emphasis on trying to get traffic off of East
River Road onto Highway 47.
Councilman Fitzpatrick felt Highway 47 was better constructed to handle a larger traffic
flow rather than East River Road, but did not know how successful it would be to shift
traffic to Highway 47. He stated there have been conflic±ing reports and projections
regarding ti°affic flows and suggested oossibly obtaining further information. He
indicated he would like to see traffic minimized through Fridley regardless of the route.
Mr. Sobiech, Public Works Director, stated the data that was used in compiling the North-
town Corridor Study has changed and several assumptions made at the time are no longer
true. Since the study was made, Northtown was constructed, and the number of trips per
day and the cars per family has changed. He stated to obtain accurate figures on traffic
flow would be very difficult.
Mayor Nee felt provision should be made for adding addit:ional lanes for use by
non-motorized vehicles at river crossings.
No other persons in the audience commented on the Transportation Plan.

Coun4ilwoman Kukowski inquired if there was a certain date in which they must comply
witl�,the sprinkler system requireinent.
The Qity Attorney> Mr. Herrick, stated when the ordinance, covering the requirement for
sprirhkler systems was adopted in 1975, there were tM•ee provisions covering new
cons�ruction; existing establishments that had applied for a liquor license; and
thos� establishments who were in possession of a liquor license. He stated Sandee's
woul come under the third provision of the ordinance and had three years from the
adop�ion of the ordinance to install a sprinkler system so this requirement would
not I�ave to be met until April 30, 1978.
Mayo�h Nee requested further information from the Fire Department and the ow�ner regarding
this requirement as far as the necessity and the costs involved.
Mr. $obiech, Public Works Director, stated several months ago a proposal was submitted
to t�e Council regarding the addition of a copper life safety sprinkler system. He
stat�d any existing structure could possibly utilize this s,ystem without too much expense.
The �ity staff was requested to check into this matter further with a report back to
the ouncil.
No pQrsons in the audience spoke for or against this license renewal.

Mayolr Nee stated there were no adverse conttnents from the City administration regarding
this license renewal other than �:he fact they are net in compliance with the ordinance
regai;ding the ratio of food sales as opposed to liquor sales. He stated the applicant
indi�cated th�y believed they would be able to meet the requirements of the ordinance once
theibridge is open again in Minneapolis.
ThelCity Attorney, Mr. Nerrick, stated the ordinance does exceed the State Statute in
tha� Fridley requires a certain portion of the income has to be from the sale of food.
The!State Statute requires only a minimum scating capacity and facilities for serving
fooa. He felt a det°Yillinatien should be made by the Council if they desire to keep
the'',present ordiriance requirement regarding the percentage of food sales in relation to
1iq�jor sales, or to change the ordinance for compliance with the State Statute. He felt
ther�e could be a different license fee charged for establishments who primarily served
food as opposed to those who have greater liquor sales.
Cour}cilman Fitzpatrick felt the State Statute was mod�fied greatly and the City is
basilcally approaching a situation of a bar serving food.
Cou cilwoman Kukowski felt the applicant should receive a special notice in writing
of �he public hearing so that he could be present to answer any questions.
Cou cilman Schneider felt it would be helpful to know what actions George Is In
Fri�ley is planning to tak� in order to bring them into compliance with the
ord nance.
Nu �ersons in the auc+ience spoke for or against this application for renewal.

Mr. Q�}reshi, City Manager, stated the Council was interested in what the City is doing
' regarding bike safety. He stated materials have been distributed to the Council which
outlirje what is being done in this area and that it is essentially an educational safety
progr�m with more emphasis placed on education rather than strict enforcement. He

throu�h six.

area,,they would come back with options for them to consider.
Counc�llman Hamernik indicated he hated to issue citatiors to bike riders, but was open
to su gestions as to how ta encourage the young peaple to obey the traffic signs.
' He fe�t perhaps the education should be reinforced with enforcement. Councilman
Schneilder suggested perhaps a periodic intense enforcement miyht be helpful.
'
Counc�lman Fitzpatrick felt, in vie�v of the fairly intensive educational program and
the ldw record of bike accidents in the City, the City staff might continue to be aware
of any other programs that could be added in terms of education. -

years and the youth are very knowledgable, but they do not know cn what side of the

with �tripping for bicycle lanes.
Councillman Hamernik stated residents on 7th Street have indicated a concern about abuse
of th� traffic laws by bicyclists.

may b� helpful.

the bicyclists, and would like the administration to�^ive consideration as to ways
�n whi�ch improvement can be made for better observance of these ]aws.

1B
� Plsnnin� Commission Meeting - February 9, 19?? P�;e 2

� a§ being private property, so this was what they had to do.
� Mrs. Schnabel asked if Berkeley Pump had ever attempted to purchase this
property before, and Mr. Toews replied that this was the first time. Mrs.
Schrtabel said the reason she was questionin�; this was she knew Berkeley Pump
� had a request for a variance coming through the Appeals Commission on that
same property, and Mr. Toews said he was aware of that.
Chairperson Harris asked if 1•ir. Toews knew if it was the intention of
� Berkeley Pump to put an addition on, and he replied that he didn't think
it was their plan to add on. Mr. Toews added he didn't l�ow if they could
add on if they wanted to because there was an easement involved. Chairperson
� Harris said a site plan had been submitted to the City from Berkeley Pump
dated January 31, 1977, which showed a proposed addition. He noted that
it was zoned Industrial.
� Mrs. Schnabel said that in reference to this, the existing building was on
Lots 3, �t and 5, and at one point they had wanted a permit to add on to the
� West side of that building. She explained they were denied that permit,
but were gran ted a permit to add on to the North side of the building.
Chairperson Harris said it appeared i'rom the plat that Ber keley had taken
�� into account the 10' drainage anci utility easement on the Easterly side of
the property. He noted the property was an acre and a half, so it did
conform with the zoning require:�ents. P•irs. Schnabel pointed out this had
� been rezoned to P•71 in 1571�. �f �er sonie discussion on if the zoning was Ml
or M2, 2ir. Bergman said it should go into the r�nutes that this was being
considered an PS1 property.
Mr. Bergman asked what the variance was for, and I�1rs. Schnabel explained
it was a setback variance to reduce the building setback from lOQ' to 73'.
� NOTION by Schnabel, seconded by Shea, that the Planning Commission close
� the Public Hearing on Propose Preliminary P1at P.S. #77-01, Arnal Addition,
by Arnold and Alvan Toe��rs. Upon a voice cote, all voting aye, Chairperson
� Harris declared the Public Hearing closed at 7:58.

Dear Clyde:
2C
TCI.EPMONE:
d12/337-346i
This is to follow-up our t�lep�one conversatior� af�er the meeting
on Wedr,esday night regarding the housekeeping amendments to the
Cable Television ardinance. � hav� pn�.addit�anal �har.gE and one
correction on the p�evious amendments whiah T have submitted to
the City. '
First, Section 405.301 regarding procedure u��an terminatian of
the franchise contains a r�feren:ce to a"S�Gtian 17'° and another.
reference to a"Section 7"e �� cc�u�se, there is nc� S�ction 17 or
Section 7 in the present ordiz�ance. The cor��ct �eference should
be to Section 405aI7 and 405e07. z a�n attachiz�g a r�vised Section
405.301, containing the corr�ct azneridmen�.s, and suggest that you
submit these o� have Mark Scott su�m�,t t.k�.ese �a th� Council or at
the public hearing. �
I also have proposed an amendm��t ta Sec�i�r� �05�261 on page 18 of
the ordinance. I suggested that the r�ferenc�� to "z2E and 25C"
should be deleted and corr�Gt re�erence5 ta Sec�ion 405.253 and
405.254 should be inser�ed. The a�ef��ezic� �.o Section 405.254 is
incorrect because the City Council ha� de�ided not ta adopt the
new Section 405.254 which I previausly submitted to the Commission
and which was a topic of discussian last evening. Accordingly, the
reference to 405.254 should be changed to 405.225. Again, I am
attaching to this letter a correct amendment to Secti:on 405.261.
If you have any questions about either of
telephone�
these amendments, please

Dear Fellow Minnesotan:
We need your help.
St. Paul, MN 55155
612 296-3000
' The law which created the A?.innesota Department of Transportation
requires that our department prepare a comnxehensive transporta-
tion plan by.July, 1978, j�e.agree that Minnesota needs a plan
' to guide transportation decisions ar.d that this plan must resgond
to the needs and interests of all 2iinnesotans. This is wr.ere we
need help from concerned organizations like yours. We need to
, know what you and the �eople you represent think the principal
transportation issue,s are.
Your response could cover alr.lost anything--from repairing r�ads,
relieving traf�ic conges�ion or. alleviating restrictions to i:n-
proving railroad service, or buildi�g more airports. You could
tell us to build more roads and bridges, or to stop; to emphasize
rail or truck or water transport; or, to establish more bikeways
or p�omote improved public transit. You might have suggestion�
on energy convervation, regulatory matters, environmental issues
or use of pipelines; or electronic communications to decrease
transportation needs. Finally, you might wish to comment on the
most appropria-te role of state government in any or all icrans-
portation issues.
We have developed a three-phased approach to involve you in the
development of the plan. Currently, we are in the first phas� of
our transportation plan. We call it the "issues identifica�ion"
pYiase. tiv� need to hear from as many people as possible, telling
us what they think the issues are and what a transportation plan
should include.
In Phase TI, we will be looking at alternative approaches to
addressing issues identified in Phase I. How do we balance all
the �ompeting issues? Here we will need your help again--to
review our evaluation of the issues and tell us which issues are
more important and which are less important. In Phase II we may
be asking citizens and groups with widely different viewpoints to
meet together so that trade offs between issues can be identified.

In Phase III we will be formalizing a draft plan. Based on the
alternatives discussed in Phase II, we will be looking for your
input one more time to help us decide which alternative to
recommend. �
We are calling this entire process Mn/DOT/PLAN. The emphasis will
be on public involvement and participation.
To make this participation process work, i repeat, we need your
help. Please do the following three things to insure the most
effective�participation in Mn/DOT/PLAN.
�.
1. At your next meeting discuss the transportation issues you
think are the most important and send your list to us by '
24ay 8, and/or plan to attend one of our March or April regional
public meetings to present your views in person.
2. At the same time, designate and identify to us someone who will
be your 2�In/DJT/PLAN liaison. That person will receive regular
mailings on tYie progress of the plan, upcoming meetings, etc.
3.. Be convinced that we want your input and that it will help us.
Y` You are the only on� who can assure that the plan reflects your
interests.
Any guestions? Send them or any other correspondence to Mn/DOT/
PL�AN, State Transportation Building, St. Paul, Mn 55155 - or call
Mn/DOT/PLAi�T at (612) 296-3152.

We loc�k forward to working with you on the development of Mn/DOT/
PLAN, our State`s Transportation Plan.

• Dear Ms. Ott,
Thank you for showing us around the police station. We
enjoyed seeing the guns and the weapons. It was fun to
sit in the police car and see the stolen bikes, and the
police jeep. It was fun to be in the holding room even
if you wouldn't lock the door. It was interesting but
sad tp see the pictures. Thank the other policemen for
showing us around and for protecting our city.
Yours friends,
Mrs. Lee's Third Grade
Room 112
Hayes Elementary School
III. BICYCLE SjAFETY �
In 1975 the 6icycle Safety Program was developed and first instructed
by Officer Gary Lenzmeier. Officer Lenzmeier also designed the first
bicycle rodeos, and togeiher with Officer Fred Bebensee conducted them.
�
With guidance from Ofificer Lenzmeier, the Bicycle Safety Program was
continued in 1976. A schedule of c7asses and rodeos were arranged at the
eight elementar��y schools located in the City of Fridley. Both classes and �.
rodeos followed'!�the basic format used last year. Instructors this year were
Officers Gary Llenzmeier and Phillip Salewski, and Technician Carla Ott.
The rodeos wer� set up and run by Officers David Keding, Gary Lenzmeier,
Robert Parquette, and Technician Carla Ott�. They were assisted at several
of the rodeos by Police Reserves Walter Eyler and Darryl Johnson. -
Over 2,700 area elementary students attended spring bicycle safety
classes. Over 800 students attended the bicycle rodeos. Much of the credit
for the success of the bicycle program belongs to the community. PTA's
from each school were approached for volunteers to help with the rodeos, and
for contributions for prizes for their schooi's participants. The prizes '
were purchased by the police department for the schools from Holiday Village
� North. Holiday offered the bicycle safety equipment, which «as bought
as prizes, to the department at a generous discount. Generous contributions
, from the PTA's meant that several of the schools had many warthwhile prizes
� for their rodeo participants. In addition to the PTA's, the Fridley Police
, Pension Associ�tion donated $100 for rodeo prizes. Rodeo prizes and refresh-

l0 g
ments were also donated by Burger King. In addition, Dave Weber, Manager .
of the Fridley Burger King, voiunteered his time to help run the rodeos.
Fridley Target Store donated a bicycle a�hich was the Grand Prize for which
a11 rodeo participants were eligible. �'ridley Our Own Hardware offered a
discount on items bought there for prizes. And the Rotary Club donated
safety reflectirre tape for the bicycles.
In addition totf�e spring classes, several individual presentaiions on
bicycle safety w�ere given during the rest of the year. During the summer,
presentations were given to some of the City's park recreation groups,
summer school c7asses, and girl scout packs.
In September, we received a request from the Fridley High School for
a bicycle safety program. Over a three day period, Officer Fred Bebensee
met with all the Fridley High School students, about 1400 of them, three
classes at a time. � . .
In all thi�ls year over 4,100 Fridley students received bicycle safety
instruction. �
Enforcemen!t of the bicycle laws increased last year. In 1975 seven �
juvenile warnir�g citations were issued to violators. A copy of the citation
is sent to thelparents. The youth faces some sort of juvenile court action
after receiving three citati,ons.No formal action is taken if only one or two
citations are received. This year over 55 citations were issued to violators,
Officer 4layne Pfuhl issued well over half of the citaiions. Numerous verbal
warnings were also given.
IV. TEtAINING .
In order to have a responsible and creditable police force, today's police
officers need extensive training in: patrol techniques and procedures,•
investigation of crimes and traffic accidents, traffic control, first aid, and
the law. In addition officers placed in supervisory positions may find
management training helpful, as well as other courses in their area of special-
ization. The Police Technicians and Receptionist/Typists must have training in
MINCIS - police computer system, and CJRS - criminal Justice reporting system,

April 12, 1977
Mr. Jim Harrington, Commissioner
Minnesota Department of Transportation
7ransportation Building
St. Pau1, MN 55155
Dear Mr. Harrinton:
The City of Fridley is in receipt of your correspondence relating to
the proposed Transportation Plan for the State of f�iinnesota (Mn/DOT/Plan).
We appreciate the opportunity to participate and provide information to
the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) relating to the
transportation concerns of our Cor�munity.
To seek input regarding our Community's transportation concerns a public
hearing ��as held on April 11, 1977 (see Resolutionj. From the public
hearing the following discussion was developed which provides indication
of the transportation concerns of Fridley.
The City of Fridley is a first ring suburban community within a metro-
politan area. This situation has put Fridley in a unique situation.
Numerous regional transportation facilities (TH 47, TH 65, I. 694,
Burlington Northern Railroad) provide transportation through Fridley in
an effort to move people and goods to and from the central core of the
metropolitan area. Consequently, tl�ese regional facilities have created
restrictions on our City transportation system. It is difficult for
residents within the Community to move from one area of the City to the
other without being restricted by trunk highways, interstate freeways,
railroads etc. The situation as it exists relates well to the physical
resource concerns (i.e. movement of veliicles, equipment and goods),
however, there is a definite need to respond to the human resource con-
cerns. The City of Fridley believes an Mn/DOT/Plan must be "people
oriented" besides "machine oriented".
Though construction of highways are necessary, Fridley wants to emphasize
the need to investigate its impact on adjacent properties (particularly
residential). Highways should be constructed only where proved necessary
for appropriate future growth and should be designed to minimize its im-
pact on environmental aspects of air and noise pollution.
Wt�en highways are constructed, areas should be provided to allow not only
movement of vehicles, equipment and goods, but safe and efficient move-
ment of pedestrians and non-motorized vehicles. More and more people are
walking, hiking and biking and they also need appropriate transportation
facilities.

Mr. Jim Harrington -2- 4/12/77
Intersections of highways with lacal roadways must be designed to pro-
vide safe movement across the highway for v,ehicles, pedestrians and
non-motorized vehicles.
Allowances, in the way of pedestrian overpasses, should be given high
priority to provide unrestricted and safe crossings of the highways by
pedestrians and non-motorized vehicles.
The congested intersection of Mississippi Street and TH 47 (University
Avenue NE) within Fridley is an existing situation where intersection and
pedestrian overpass improvements are needed to improve "people oriented"
transportation networks.
It should also be noted that additional pedestrian overpass construction
along Mississippi Street at intersections with TH 65 and East River Road
would provide excellent transportation facilities for pedestrians and
non-motorized vehicles within the Community.
Highways used as regional facilities should be properly investigated,
designed, constructed or modified to ensure proper utilization to
eliminate high volumes on local streets. Again, in Fridley, the traffic
presently on East River Road, which abuts a heavily residential area and
runs parallel, and in close proximity to TN 47, could be reduced if the
trunk highway facility was better utilized.
Implementation of construction of planned and needed highway facilities
is another concern. Volumes of traffic on local roadways in Fridley,
particularily East River Road, could be reduced if the segments of I. 94
from I. 694 south to downtown Minneapolis, the Northtown Bridge Crossing,
and TH 169 from I. 694 north to TH 52 were completed.
Together with the above discussion pertaining to "people oriented"
highways, the transportation plan should heavily address transit systems.
Transit facilities do not exist "in" Fridley, but again provide service
"through" Fridley to the central core of the metropolitan area. Trans-
portation plans must include inter-community transit, together with intra-
community transit. Inter-community transit should be in the nature of
mini-buses, personal rapid transit (prt), vans, etc. to allow residents
to move within their City. Intra-community system should utilize similar
modes of transit to allow ease of movement from community to community.
At the present time, in order to travel from the west side of Fridley to
the east side of PJew Brighton (only approximately 5 miles), a person must
ride the bus from Mississippi Street on East River Road south to Lowry,
transfer to go east on Lowry, then transfer again to go north on Silver
Lake Road to Mississippi (two transfers and about 10 miles). An alter-
native is to go downtown on East River Road from Mississippi Street,
then transfer to go back north on Silver Lake Road (one transfer and
about 15 miles).

! Mr. Jim Harrington -3- 4/12/77
In summar�, Mn/DOT/Plan should stress transportation systems which allow
ease of travel for all potential users; i.e. pedestrians, and non-motor-
ized vehicles as well as vehicles and equipment. Mn/DOT/Plan should aTlow
flexibility in order to change with the needs of the Community.
To continue City of Fridley involvement in the Mn/DOT processing of
Mn/DOT/Plan, Richard N. Sobiech, Fridley Public Works Director, is
designated as the City Mn/DOT/Plan Liaison.
Yours very truly,
Willaim J. Nee, Mayor
City of Fridley
