OPEN FORUM, VISITORS:
There was no response from the audience r.egarding this item of business
OLD BUSINESS:
CONSIDERATION OF AUTHORIZATION Of UP TO $5,000 TO THE FRIDLEY 49ERS, INC.
FROM THE COMMUNITY CELEBRATIONS PROGRAM UNDER COMMUNITY DEVELOPf1E�lT:
Mayor Nee stated the funds were budgeted for th'e purpose of this community
celebration and the 49ers are requesting the money in advance. -
Mr. Brunsell, City Clerk, stated last year invoices were submitted by the
49ers and payments were then made by the City, however,they felt it would
be easier to coordinate if payment was received before the event is held.
Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, stated he could see no problems with advancing
the funds, as long as it was a budgeted item, and the expenditure was used
for public purposes. He stated, however, if there are excess funds, after
the celebration, agreement should be reached on how these would be handled.
Mr. Leon Madsen, President of the 49ers felt they could present a detailed
accounting of how the funds were used, within two months after the event.
Mr. Herrick felt this would be satisfactory, if the Council was satisfied
with an accounting within 60 days after the event. F!e suggested possibly
any excess funds could remain in the 49ers' account to be used for the
next annual celebration with the understanding that if there is no future
celebration, the money would be refunded to the City.
MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to receive the Articles of Incorporation
of the Fridley �}9ers, Inc. Seconded by Councilman Hamernik. Upon a voice
vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously.
MOTION by Councilman Barnette that the City authorize up to R5,OOO to the
Fridley 49ers for the community celebration program, with an accounting on

motion carried unanimously.
NEW BUSINESS:
NSIDERATION OF FIRST READING OF AN ORDINANCE ESTABLISHIPIG CHAPTER 512 OF
r rrrv rnnF nF TNF CTTY nF FRrnIFY ENTITLED D10TOR VEHICLE REGULATIONS ON
Mr. James Nill, Public Safety Director, stated the City has had isolated
problems where vehicles are driving across school or private property and
unless there is visible damage to the property, there are no regu7ations to
cover this type of incident, therefore, citations could not 6e issued. Mr.
Hill felt this ordinance would fill the void so that citations could be issued
where vehicles are dwiving across public or private property other than on the
roadways provided for that purpose.
Mayor Nee stated, in the current issue of the magazine published by the
League of Minnesota Municipalities, there was an article regarding lau�s which
are on the books and not enforced by cities and felt a serious look should be
taken at this situation.

Mr. Hill stated he also read the article and didn't feel it pertains to this
ordinance. He explained this violation has been enforced in several instances
where it was clear there was criminal damage to the property.
MOTION by Councilman Schneider to waive the reading and approve the ordinance
upon first reading. Seconded 6y Councilman Qarnette. Upon a voice vote, all
voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously.
RECEIVING THE h1INUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OF MARCH 8, 1978:
MENARD CASHWAY LUMBER, 5351 CENTRAL AVENUE N.E. - S. P. �'78-01:
Mr. Darrel Clark, Community Development Administrator, stated this is a
request from Menard's to add a garden center on their property. He explained
the proposed site would be near the building at the North end of the parking
lot and a temporary structure would be used to house the garden center
during the summer months.
P1r: Clark stated this item was heard by the Planning Commission which
recommended denial of the request.
Mr. Menard, the applicant for tfie Special Use Permit, stated it didn't look
like they would be able to proceed with the garden center this year because
of the time element, however, he stated they would like to proceed with the
permit for next year and possibly this year.
Mr. Menard felt they have made progress with the residents regarding some of
the other probiems and stated they have put up a building to house the saw,
fenced around the air-conditioning and turned off the public address system.
t�r. Menard also stated they have contracted with Clean Sweep for cleaning of
their parking lot.
Mr. Charles Seeger, representing Menard's, explained their plans for the
garden center which would be an outdoor display, attractive7y done with a
split rail fence. He sta±Pd the garden center would be up until the nth
of July and then taken down.
Mayor Nee questioned the number of parking places they now have available.
tdr. Seeger stated about 20 parking spaces would be lost for the garden center
area, however, he stated they are presentiy only utilizing parking to the
end of their building structure.
P�r. Clark reviewed the parking requirements for Menard's which has a 77,000
square foot building and under a C-2 zone, 513 stalls are required and
under a C-ZS zone, 924 stalls would be required.
Mr. Roland Lang, 1278 Skywood Lane, felt the garden center wou7d add to
the problem of the traffic in the area. He also stated, if Menard's were
have the garden center, it should be done attractive7y on a permanent basis.
Mr. Carl Heggestad, 1258 Skywood Lane, felt the improvement of the intersection
should be accomplished first to see of there is still a problem with traffic
congestion, before proceeding with a higher density of selling at �1enard's.
Councilman Schneider stated the concern he finds pertinent to the garden
center is the litter and trash, and questioned what steps tienard's 4iould
be taking for litter control.
Mr. Menard stated Clean S��aeep will be taking care of the parking lot on a
weekly basis with their maintenance personnel al.so working in this area.
He further explained the garden center would be handled like a department
of Menard's vrith personnel manning this area.
P1r. Charles Sieff, 1298 Skywood Lane, felt if Menard's wanted the Special Use
Permit, they should show they are in compliance and not creating difficult
safety a.nd health hazards with respect to the traffic. He felt the request
should be considered, after the improvement of the intersection.
REGULAR MEETING OF MARCH 2�, 1978 PAGE 4 4�
Ms. Mai:thews, 1259 Skywood Lane, stated she strongly opposes the garden center
and felt it would add to the noise and pollution which already exists.
Councilman Schneider questioned if the Special Use Rermit could be denied on
the grouncis of tP�e traffic problem.
Mr. Herrick felt they might be able to deny it until construction is campleted
at this intersection, however, he stated this was an educated guess on his
part. He pointed out that court cases clearly spelt out that the burden of
proof lies with the City in denying a Special Use Permit. �
Councilman Barnette stated safety and traffic seem to be the main concerns and
asked Menard's if'they would be �•rilling to ta.ble this request until January,
since residents to not seem to be objecting �o the garden center as much as
the traffic in the area.
Mr. Seeger felt tabling the request would not be in their best interests.
He stated he doesn't believe the traffic is really the consideration here as
they have had an on-going problem with their operation from residents in the
neighborhood.
Mr. Seeger felt if they could get the garden center operating this year, they
could tell if it would be profitable and would then try to get it located inside
the premises. He felt the garden center would't generate additional traffic
as they hope to sell to persons who would be coming into the store anyway for
another purpose.
Councilman Schneider indicat�d he a�ould feel more comfortable, if Menard's ,�
would b�, wi71ing to postaone the garden center for a year, after improvement
is completed at thE intersection. :
Mayor Nee stated he shared Councilman Barnette's and Councilman Schneider's
point of view and preferred to wait until 1979 for the Special Use Permit.
Ms. Matthews stated she would like to see more of a commitment an the part
of Menard's to the garder� center and not to have the temporary structure.
� Mayor Nee stated he understands, if the garden center is profitable,
Menard's would make this sort of commitment.
M�r, Seeger asked if they could request approval for the garden center for
1979 at this time so they would not have to go through processing of a
Special Use Permit again next year.
MOTION by Councilman Schneider to grant � S�ecial Use Permit for Menard's
for the calendar year 1979 for purposes of a temporary outdoor garden center,
with the permit being strictly for the year 1979. If Menard`s had similar
plans for 1980, this r�atter would again come before Council. Seconded by
Councilman Barnette. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared
the motion carried unanimously. �
HUMAN RESOURCES C�P1MISSION MEETING OF MARCH 2, 1978, (EXCERPT) -
MEDICAL ETHiCS PROGRAM:
This matter was not censidered by the Council at this time.
APPEALS COMMISSION MINUTES OF FEBRUARY 14, 1978 (Excerpt) - ARf�AL
COMPANY, 8251 ASHTON AVENUE:
�Ar. Clark, Corrununity Development Administrator, stated this is a request for
variances to reduce the required rear yar•d setback from 20 feet to '0" feet
and reduce the requ�ired setback for the building, when properiy is adjacent
to� a different zoning district, from 100 feet to �0 feet.
Mr. Clark stated the Appeals Commission has recommended approval, witf► the
stipalation that if the building was ever to be sold separately, the
�petitioner would be required to plat the land rather than be granted a lot
, Split.
Mr. Clark stated, in processing a similar request from Berkeley Pump, they
t�ere requested to participate in the cost of putting a fence along the park
property. He stated, however, the Park Department is planning to request
Berkely Pump to place plantings on the top of the berm instead of fencing.

REGULAR MEETING OF DIARCH 20, 1978

Mr. Clark stated the staff has recommended that Arnal Company should be
required to pay the same type of cost as Qerkeley Pump.
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated the justification in askir�g Berkeley Pump
to participate in the cost was because of the safety and questioned if staff
was satisfied the berming would take care of the safety factor.
Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated the staff is still thinking in terms of
safety, and basically, the City is applying the same rationale here as when
the property to the South was developed.
Mr. Arnie Toews, representing Arnnl Com�any, indicated they objected to the
requirement to share in the cost o�' the berming. He pointed out they were
there years before the pa�k was ever put in, therefore, they feel no obligation
for fencing or berming on the park property.
Mr. Qureshi pointed out, with the request for the variances, there woul'd be
an additional burden on the roadways with more traffic and felt, �herefore,
conditions could be imposed.
Mayor Nee felt a sufficient finding had not been made regarding the need for
the variances.
Councilman Barnette pointed out, if the variances are not granted, Arnal
would have to back their trucks onto Ashton Avenue so it would create more
of a traffic problem.
Mr. Qureshi stated the Council has previously discussed development of
this area and this request would continue the same pattern of development.
Mr. Herrick felt it wasn't well documented as to why the variances were
requested and stated the diagrams weren't very precise.
Mr. Toews stated, because of the odd shape of the property, it would make it
considerably harder to design a building, without the variances.
Mr. Herrick suggested this item be tabled to the next meeting in order that
the previous variances could be reviewed.
MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to table this request until docu�nentation is
furnished regarding the need for the variances. Seconded by Councilman
Hamernik. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion .
carried unanimously.
MOTION by Councilman Hamernik to receive the minutes of the Planning Commission
Meeting of March 8, 1978. Seconded by Councilman Schneider. Upon a voice

� This resolutien covers improvements on Meyers and Hi7lcrest Avenues.
Mr. Hermann af the City Assessor's Office pointed out the assessment to
Mrs. Thompson's pr•operty would be $2,700 for Meyers Avenue and $4,600 for
Hillcrest Avenue. 7ho ori9inal estimate was �13,225, h�wever, it could be
reduced to $7,300 with the stipulation that if Mrs. Thompson's lot was
ever split, the assessment would have to be paid based on the going rate
for the assessment at the time of the lot split.
Mrs. Kehner, 7129 East River Road, stated they t�uilt their home with
financing from the Minnesota Fir.ance Agency and received a variance because
they were not able to construct a garage due to the cost. She pointed
out that now they were going to be asked co pay for a street.
Mrs. Thom�son, 7155 East River Road, felt she did not need the street and
the expense should be with the developer.
Mr. Tim Munn, p�.���ioner for the improvement, stated he could see where Lots
3 and 4 wouidn't benefit and indicated he would ad�i these lots to the list
to pay the assessment, but felt everyone would use and benefit from Hillcrest
Avenue.
In discussing other alternatives, the Council mad2 reference to the City-
�wned property and whether or not it should be retained.
Mayor Nee questioned if the City v,�as obligated to build the street where
there is public access.
Mr. Herrick stated, it would seem to him, the persons owning the lots wouTd
have a right to a building permit as long as there is public access, however,
then there is the yuestion of homes being built without the street improved.
Mr. Herrick indicated he would like to do sonre further checking regarding
this matter.
�4r. Qureshi, City Manager, suggested another alternative may be to make the
improvEment in certain stages to possibly lower the cost. He feli the staff
would need additional time to review this possibility.
MJTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to direct the Engineering Department to bring
back another assessment ro?1 based upon a lower cost by stage construction of
�4eyers Avenue. Seconded by Councilman Schneider. Upon a voice vote, all
voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Qureshi stated the affected property oa�ners will be notified when this
item comes back to the Council.
Mr. Clark stated Mr. Berry of 6965 Hickory Circle was in the audience to
discuss Hillcrest Avenue as it relates to his property.
Mr. Berry submitted a proposed sketch regarding his and Mr. Nichols'
property. He stated that iie is proposing th�t the City attain an additionai
20 feet from Mr. Nichols making a total of 50 feet then center the street
within the 50'. This concept would add approximately 10' to the distance
between Mr. Berry's house and the proposed curb.- (17 feet to 27 feet).
Mr. Nichois felt this proposal was possible, but indicated he would like
to check into it further.

Mr. Herrick stated he and ihe administration are starttng another

Councilman Hamernik pointed out, for example, the Maintenance Code which
a�ill take a lot of manpower to enforce. He questioned if, in some areas,
enforcement cou]dn't be handled on a complaint basis:
Mayor Nee felt there should be a review hy the staff of the ordinances and
report on which enes are not activeiy enforced.
Mr. Herrick felt recommendations could be made as to whether or not

RESOLUTION N0. 24-1978 - P,EGARDING DETACNP1EhiT AND ANNEY,ATIOPd:

THOt+iPSON' S
00 aLOCK, tdEST
Mr. Sobiech, Public Works Oirector, stated this is a plat which involves three
parcels of property at the northwest intersection of Kimball Street antl Broad
Avenue. He stated the property, as it exists, involves part of Fridley and part
of Coon Rapids. Mr. Sobiech pointed out the proposed resolution is required in
C order to annex from Coon Rapids that part of property that is necessary for this
plat. Mr. Sobiech stated, if the plat is approved,'it should be with the
contingency that Coon Rapids concurs with the annexation.
' Mr. Sobiech stated it would be a staff recommendation that appropriate escrows
be held in order to ensure that the proper street section is improved in the
' future. He stated the petitioner requested a waiver of the park fee and there
was a suggestion that perhaps the fee could be waived for the lot on which a
residence exists.
�

MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to approve the fina] plat, Subdivision P. S.
#77-08, Thompson's Riverview Heights, with the provisions that the petitioner
place in escrow that amount of money needed to improve curb and guiter along
Broad Avenue; that the park fee be only one-half of what it normally would be;
and that the plat be contingent upon Fridley annexing the land involved in the
plat. Seconded by Councilman Schneider.
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated his reason for moving a reduction of the park fee
is that, in this p]at, they are really creating only two new building sites.
He stated his main consideration is that it is a rather expensive plat in view
of the improvements involved; however, as it relates directly to the park fee,
this plat is more extremely removed to park facilities the City maintains.
Councilman Nainernik requested clarification if they are ta]king abaut a park.
fee on three lots or two lots.
Mr. Sobiech stated the platting ordinance provides for a park fee of $300 per
lot or a total of $900, so a sirict interprel:ation would be for three lots.
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated his motion is for a park fee of one-half of the
$900 or $450.
Councilman Hamernik questioned what makes this development so much more expensive.
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated in all parts of the City, at this time, the concrete
curb and gutter are in and this one wasn't installed for a peculiar reason.
Mr. Sobiech stated the reason it wasn't improved before was that it could not
be assessed because it was in ihe City of Cocn Rapids.
Councilman Schneider indicated he was concerned of �,educing the park fee from
$400 to $450. He felt it would be consistent te red+.�ce it to $600 for the
two lots, but pointed out the park fee is to allow for development of parks
and felt.if they took an approach to waive the park fee in areas where there
aren't any park facilities, the Gity might never get any parks.
Counciiman Fitzpatrick feit this is a special case, as park facicities in this
area aren't likely to be affected by this plat, either the need for or whether
or not they are increased. He stated he would agree with Councilman Schneider's
comments, but didn't view what is hap�ening here in the same way as is true in a
new plat, as then the fee is collected for purposes of providing park facilities.
MOTION by Councilman Hamernik to amend the motion to charge a park fee of �600
for the two lots that are not now constructed on. Seconded by Councilman
Schneider. lJpon a voice vote, ali voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion
carried unanimously.
UPON A VOICE VOTE TAKEN 0� THE P1AIN MOTION, all voted aye, and Mayor Nee declared
the motion carried unanimously.
MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick.to adopt Resolution fJo. 24-1978 regarding
detachment and annexation. Seconded by Councilman Hamern�k. Upon a voice vote,

APPFALS COP1MISSION MIP�UTES OF JAP�UARY 24, 1978:
GORDON HEDLUND: 4800 3RD STREET N. E.:
Mr. Sobiech, Public Works Director, stated this is a request for variances
to allow construction of a home on a 40 foot lot at the intersection of 3rd
Street and 4Fith Avenue.
He stated that the variances under consideration are noted on Page 5� of the
agenda book and summarized the�n as follows: to reduce the lot area; to
reduce the required �ide yard; to reduce the minimum lot width; to reduce
the minimum square footage; and to reduce the side yar� adjoining living
area to allow construction of a house and attached garage at 4800 3rd
Street N.E.
Mr. Sobiech s4ated the Appeals Commission has recommended denial of these
variances.
Mr. Hed�und stated he is a ho�:e builder and i:hat ther�e are a number of homes
% I in this area on 40 foot lots. Hz felt the request for �dariances t��as not an
� unreasonable one and many variances are reyuired because of the v�ay the
� ordinance is written. He felt his prcposal was a good cne ai�d the Council
should take a look at it.
Mayor Nee pointed out the basis far granting a variance is due to hardship.
� Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, stat�d the legal basis for obtaining a variance
' ° is i:hat there is something unique about the property that would jus�ify grant-
ing th� variance. He stated it seems to h�im, in this particuiar case, if he
' reads the reccrd correctly, that Mr. Nedlui�d purchased the lots with the
advance krowledge that they were not buildable. Fle indicated he has the right

io come before the Counci] to request the variances; however, he felt the
Council should vic�v the variances on the m2rits and if they are convinced
it is in the best inter�ests aF the neighborhood, ti�ey have the authority
to grant the variances, He further pointed out there isn't a compelling
legal reason that they have to yrant the variances.
Mayor Nee asked Mr. Hedlund if he was informed that the lots were �anbuild-
able.
Mr. }iedlund stated he was notified of the sale of the tax forfeit land.
He stated the la.dy at the desk told him they couldn't be built on. He
stated if he was to say he �,as notified, in a general sort of N�ay he was,
but on certain lots he was told there are thin�s he couldn't and could do.
He stated as far as saying that these lots ai°en't buildable, he pointed out
that in other cities such as Plinneapolis, New Brighton, Columbia Heights
you can build on 40 foot lots. '
Mayor Nee asked h1r. Hedlucd if any of the staff suggested he could build on
a 40 foot lot in Fridley.
Mr. Hedlund answered in the negative.
Councilman Barnette questioned if residents in this area might not rather
have a house on the lot instead of weeds, dump9ng groi�nds, etc. He
questioned if these lots aren't ev�ntually built on or purchased by
neighboring property owners what would become of them.
Mr. Hedlund stated the Chairmar� of the Appeals Commission called the
people to the north of the lot and they stated they would like something
built on it. He stated not many people came in when t1i� meetings were
held. However, there was a peLition requesting denial of the variances.
Mr. Thorsor, 477� 3rd Street, stated his main concern is tha� he is
disapnointed on other hon;es being built �n 4u foot lots. He stated he
circulated the petition and feels they have enough traffir_ in the area.
Councilman Sr.hneider felt the main questior, is what is the hardship.
Mr. Hedlund stated he is not claiming any hardship, he bought the lots
thinking he could build on them. He stated it seems a little different
when one village states you have to have a hardship and has tougher rules
than other villages.
He felt the City is unusuaiiy tough in the requirements.
Mr. Herrick felt perhaps what P1r. Nedlund is asking for more than a
variance is a chang2 in the ordinance. He stated the City has adopted a
75 foot standard for lots which have been in existence for a nun�ber of years.
MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to concur with the recommendation of the
Appeals Commission and deny the request for variances as there is no showing
of a hardship. Seconded by Councilman Schneider.
Mayor Nee stated the City went through great lengths to show when the lots
were sold what they could be used for. He stated that was the reason iie
asked representatives from the County at attend the meeting this evening
in the even� this question arose.
� Mayor Nee stated, prior to releasing these lots for sale, the whole question
i• was gone into whnther there should be special zoning and these things were
!� considered. :le indica�ed he was glad there was no misunderstanding on the
� , City's position.
Councilman Barneifie questioned what was goirg to happen to the 40 foot
lots. He felt they are a hazard for traffic and questioned if the Council
hoped neighboring property owners would purchase them.
P1r Thorson stated he was at the auction and was interested in purchasing
i l ±he lot, however, he stated the cost got up to $3>500.

Mayor Nee stated it �-�as hoped i:hat the lats might be purchased by adjacent �
property o�•aners. ;
Com���issii�ner 0'Bannon� Anoka County, stated when these bu�ilding sites were
d�iscussed, he was aware they were not buildnble sites. Ne stated anyone
knows you cannot buy a building site in the metropolitan area for ;500 and
he siated if he knFw ±hese were going to he bid for $3,50C, they would never
have been pui; on the sa1e. He stated, in tfie sale notice, it states they
are subjeci to City oi,dinances.
Mr. Thorson stated he v,�ould have been happy to pay 5400 or �500 for the
lot, but when the price �vent to $3,500 he wasn't interested, Mrs. 7h�rson
stated they do maintain the lot next te them, even thougl� tliey do not own
lt.
^1r. Nedlund stated the auctioneer never told him specifically that these
lots were unbuildable. He stated for the record he wanted to make it
clear that he was not specifically told.
P1ayor Nee stated he daesn't want to get the proceedings confused, but
pointed out P1r. Hecilt�rd is a builder and assumes a builder would look at
the zoning ordinances. He asked if there was anything in the City
ordinances which states he could build on a n0 foot lot.
Mr. Hedlund stated ir� mosi areas 40 foot lots are buildable.
Mayor N�e stated, being a builder, he is sure h1r. Hedlund is familiar
with the reyuirements and it was nat incumbent on the City to keep him
informed of the codes.

the Couricil took every precaution to let prospective buyers know that
these were not buildable lots.

Mr. arunsell, City Clerk, stated the City is working �vith several other com-
munities ���ith regard to sponsoring legislation for cities to self-insure.
He stated it looks like the Legislature is not going to adopt this legislation
and an alternate bill has been prepared that would permit specific cities to
self-irisure either individually or on a pool basis.
He stated, in order for Fridley to be included, he felt the Councii should
show support for this legislation and requested the Council consider
adoption of the resolution submitted.
Councilman Hamernik questioned potential savings based on past history.
Mr. Brunsell stated he is not sure the,y will save that much on administrative
costs. He staied they �vould have to hire some administrative help as far as
handling claims. He pointed out some cities are now at the point where
they absoluteiy cannot buy insurance. He stated insurance companies are
getting out of the business, as far as liability with cities is concerned.

REGUL�R MEETING UF �k��L'P.RY 27, 1978 PAG[ 10
Pdr. Sob�er_h stated the �lan chat N�as discussed wiih the homeowners, through
Councilman Schneider, is outlined in Page 10 of the agenda book. He stated,
in this particular pian, tf�ey �veuld be resiricting lights to the intersec-
tions, sharp curves and dead-ends noted on the plan. He stated the short
cul-de-sacs get benefit from intersecticn light�iny.
Mr Sobiech stated the costs for �dorthern States Power to install the under-
ground system is basicaliy $2 per trenchina foot, but N.S.P. gives a�50
per lighi credit. He stated there would be no installation costs since
the trenching cost is halanced by the light cred?t. He stated there will
be a$100 to S2Q0 c;,arge assessed for boring under driveviays. Mr. Sobiech
suggested each of tYie individual property ot�ar�ers take it upon themselves
to restore t-heir own properties to their satisfaction. He stat2d there
are tvio kinds of lights tc consider, either mercury vapor or sodium vapor.
Although sodium vapor lights would cost 75 cents a month more than mercury
vapor, thPy are better as far as energy savings. PBr. Sobiech stated,
therefore, the staff would recon�,mend ir;stallatian of the 16 sodium vapor
lights, with the City paying the cost for tne boY�ings, and staff talking
to the residents about r�staration of their property. Mr. Sobiech a1so
, pointed ou* ihere was ro extra charge for the decorative pole.
Mr. Sobiec�i pointed ou* on a map ti�at those pr�operties, outlined in red, were
either opposed to the street ligt�ts or did not make any comment one way or
the other. He stated si.aff urould be in conta�t with these residents to
discuss their objections and work this out with the property owner.
Mr. Jim Donahue, 1514 Berne Road, felt the residents were aware of the
restoration that would be needed.
Mr. Edwin Nunn, 1470 Glacier Lane, stated he �^ras one of the persons who
ci•rculated the petition and indicated to residents that hopefully the
liylits coul� �e instailed by tnis suinn;er.
P1r. Sobiech stated N.S.P. wnuld proce�s i.his through their computer so
that it probably v�ould be spring or early summer before the lights were
installed.
Councilman Hamernik stated he would like to discuss the street lighting
policy, ?n general, but didn`t have any disct.iss;on regard�ng this
particular issue.
Mr. Sobiech stated residents in other areas could get an underground
sysi:em, but it would have to be assessed. He felt the staff could look into
the expense involved.
Councilman Hamernik felt it may be good to get some ground�aork done, as
he felt residents in Meludy Manor miaht be more receptive to a decorative
pole and underground lighting.
Mr. Sobiech submitted a photo of a street light that could be used in an
ar�ea that has overhead lighting.
MOTION by Councilman Schneider to direct staff to proceed with the plans
for stre�t lighi;ing in the South In��sbruck area making sure they work with
the residents in the area notifying them of the fact that the sod or .
landscaping will not be restored �y the Cii:y and that lights not be
installed directly on the property, if the property owner has objections.

be placed on the receptacle would have to be approved by Council and the
agreement contains certain req�a�rements regardir�g performance bonds, in the
event the company didn't fulfi]] tneir part of the ac�reement.
Mr. Sobiech stated staff has v�or�ed with the City Attorney on this to
ensure that the format ar�d items were iri pi�oper orcler. f;e further stated
a representative of Environn�ental Services, Inc. �,�as present and mey wish
to comment.
C�uncilman Hamernik questioned the approach taken to thSs situation and the
need for the agreement. He stated he has so me reservation and feels, with
the agreement, the City is limiting the accessibility to one company, and
felt it could possibly be handletl under another qrocedure, such as a license.
Mr. Herrick stated he did not see anything that makes this exciusive to
ENVIROPdP1EfdTAL SERVICES,_ Inc. ffe stated the C1ty orouid be al lowing tnis
company to tiave 40 receptables, and would not be limiting another company
coming in the City
Councilman Hamernik felt it might be better° to handle th�s under a lice'nsing
arrangement. In his interpretation, he felt the City is condoning something
and wants it made clear the City is not p�omoting this, and should not
really be tied into it other than control.
Mayor Nee stated he has some uneasiness v�hether it is any business of the
City if someone wants the receptac]e. He indicated though ihere is some
deviation regarding the code.
Councilman Schneider stated he shared Councilinan Hamernik's concerns, however,
was in favor of the agreement.
F4r. He�rick stated, from the standpoint of policy, it is strictiy up to
the Coun�il if they want this type of agreement or if they !�,�ant a pe�°;rit
for this type of adver�tis;n_4, then the ordinance sho�ild be amended.
Mr. Sobiech stated the item was discussed at a conference meeting, after
the company presented informatic�n to the Planning Commission. He stated
the agreement is for discussion purposes to determir�e how the Council
wishes to handle it. He felt the City does have codes ihat could be used to
monitor this type of situation, without the agreement.
Mr. Nerrick questioned if anyone had any problem with the aesthe*ics of
these receptacles.
�•1r. Quresfii stated there was some concern and apprehension; and, pros and
cons were discussed.
Mayor Nee felt the business iiseif would make thai judgment.
Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated this would be an experimental thing, and
there should be reasonable control by the City. He indicated he was a
little apprehensive about how this would be accented.

Services, Inc. contingent upon publication and second reading of the

to be another use o� the holiday property k�here the garden center had

h1r. Sobierh stated their experience, to date, is that Holiday has never

Mr. Qureshi, City hianager, suggested an annual review by staff, with a
renewal by Council in three years.
M,r. Herrick, City llttqrney, stated probably th� mobile home and garden
center shoulds�'t be tied �ogether since 1:he garden center is part of
Holiday Vil7aye's operatiori. He felt on the ott�er uses, such as Pako

'•`;Z REGULAR MEETING OF MARCH b, 1978 � PAGE 2
Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated there was a change made in the ordinance
regarding fire requirements for safety of the buildings, as noted on Page
2H of the agenda book.
Mr. Qureshi stated sub-sections 3 and 4 under Section 220.093 are already
existing in the code and sub-section 2 is mandated by State statute. He
explained subsection 1 regarding fire exits is recommended by the Fire
Department because of the recent incident involving a fire in Columbia
Heights.
Mr. Qureshi stated the requirement involving the fire exits will involve
a sizeable cost to bring the apartment buildings up to code.
Deputy Fire Chief Aldrich explained, in a recent fire in Columbia Heights,
three deaths resulted primarily because o.f the open stairwells. He stated
the City of Fridley does have buildings constructed in this same manner;
however, under the present code, this would not be allowed. He stated
they have found 13 buildings in Fridley where �ne stairway is open and
19 have both stairways open.
Chief Aldrich explained a fire anywhere in the building that produces any
smoke would go throughout the building. He stated he realize there
would be some expense involved in bringing the buildings up to code;
however, it could save the loss of a life.
Chief Aldrich stated it was the intention not to include two-story
units, but only units having more than two levels; therefore, it was
suggested that language be added under Section 220.093, sub-section la
to clarify what dwellings woald be affected.
Mayor Nee questioned if the requirement would apply to buildings now
existing.
Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, felt on the basis of it being a safety matter,
additional correction could be required.
MOTION by Councilman Fitapatrick to amend Ordinance No. 673 by adding the
words "having more than two occupied levels" after the word "dwellings"
in Sectian 220.093, sub-section la. Seconded by Councilman Hamernik. Upon
a voice v�te, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously.
Councilman Hamernik questioned the fees for implementing this program.
Mr. Sobiech, Public bdorks Director, stated the existing fee is $15 for fire
inspections for mu�tiple dwellings and anticipates an additional $15 fee
per unit; however, he indicated these are estimates at this time.
Mr. Qureshi stated the fee section is in another section of the Code and
wilt have to be brought to the Co�ncil for modification.
UPON A VOICE VOTE TAKEN ON TNE MAIN MOTION, ali voted aye, and P�ayor Nee
declared the motion carried unanimously.
Councilman Schneider indicated he had some c�ncerns regarding the enforce-
ment. He questioned if C�ty Inspectors wouid be going into apartment
units without the tenants present.
Mr. Sobiech stated inspections would be made during the normal working
day; therefore, it is likely the inspectors would be going into units when
the tenants were not present.
%
Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated the City will try to give due notice �
to both the apartment manager and tenant when they will be making an
inspection.
Councilman Schneider asked what would be the procedure if tney couldn't
get into a dwelling unit for the inspection.
� Mr Sobiech stated this has been discussed and they are hopeful the land-
, lords would cooperate. He indicated in other comnunities having such a
r. program, this hasn`t been a proble�. He stated the inspections are to
protect the tenants and hopefully, the City would have their cooperation as
well as the landlords.

REGULAR MEETING OF MARCH 6, 1978 PAf,E 3
Councilman Schneider indicated he had some concerns about the tenant
being notified regarding the inspection and that he has prior knowledge
of the inspection.
Mayor Nee asked what it would involve to have an evening shift for the
inspections.
Mr. Sobiech stated it would involve rescheduling a person's activiti,es
and felt this could be looked into.
Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated the staff also has concerns at this
time regarding the enforcement, but hoped they could work to develop
good relations and learn from communities no�� involved in tbis type of
enforcement.
Mayor Nee thought perhaps a notification to the apartment manager and
tenants regarding the inspection indicating the purpose and what items
the inspector would be checking may be helpful.
Mr, Sobiech stated the City would be approaching this on a complaint
basis to see the reception the code is going to receive from property
owners who would like the City to come in and make an inspection of thei.r
dwelling units.
MOTION by Councilman Barnette to approve the general policy for the
enforcement of the Housing Maintenance Code. Seconded by Councilman
Schneider. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the

Fridley, Minnesota
Honored Councilmembers:
As you are probably aware, the Fridley 49er Day celebrations administration
has undergone a change from last year. The Chamber of Commer�e is no longer
involved, except for representation on the Board of Directors of the newly
formed Fridley 49er's, Inc. This incorporation is formed of people v�ho have
been active in past 49er Days plus some new folks. The Board of Directors
of Fridley 49er's, Inc. and its officers are as follows:
President------------Leon Madsen
Vice President-------Bob Olmstead
Secretary------------Marilyn Crowder.
Treasurer------------Marvin Brunsell
Directors:
Ghuck Boudreau - Parks and Recreation Department
Dennis Otten - Char�ber �f Commerce
Mark Haggerty - Chamber of Commerce
Henry Peterson - American Legion
Bab Stavanau - Self
Qonna Cebula - American L:egion Auxiliary
Ben Nygaard - Fridley Jaycees
Ricki 6erquist - Parks and Re�reation Department
8ob Cook - Fri dl ey !.i ons
Enclosed is a copy of the Articles of Incorpora�ion. Everyone concerned is
of the firm opinion that this manner of administraLion will be a definite
improvement. Each organization running an even� �till b� responsible for more
af the detail woCk of that event. This v1i11 replace much of the work that was
doneby Ed Dunn, of the Chamber, on a fuli time 6asis.
The Board of Directors will prlmarily functi�n as a coordinator of the events.
The Board will, also, determine and approve expenses incurred in the operation
of the various euents where solicited and donated funds are insufficient.
As President of Fridley 49er's, Inc., it is my feeling �hat we want to provide
a celebration for the citizens of Fridley that wiil be both entertaining and
easily accessible. Therefore, I would hope �hat admissions ��vill have to be
charged in as few areas as possible.
Last year, finances for the celebration, vrere extremely fragmented. The Chamber
did some, the individual organizations did some and some was done thro�gh the
City. Except in cases where an organization does 100% sponsorsh�p of an event,
I wouTd hope ihat ali financi:al control can be held with the Board. I feel,
in this way, we can be more accountable to tt�� Council for City funds expended
and to the following year's Board fo�r better planning.

Fridley 49er Days
March 16, 1978
Enclosed is a spread sheet of our proposed budget, It is based on the past
experience of myself and the other Board members and done with the help of
Marvin Brunsell. We have not had access to Cham�er of Commerce records for past
years, and therefore have not had that as a planning too7. I da, however,
feel this proposed budget is realistic. As the event planning becomes more
so7id within the next few weeks, we will have an even better handle on expected
expenses.
It is our desire to simplify the handling of income and disbursements by having
a corporation checking account to work from. This will also free the City
Finance Department from having to handle this work. Based on the proposed
budget, we would need approximately $5,000 from the budgeied amouni o�F $6,300
in account #139, Community Czlebraiion Program. Of course, the Board cannot
guarantee that only items, as they appear on the proposed budget, would be
covered by this authorization, nor that budgeted figures are not probably
excessive in some cases. We will, however, guarantee that the proposed budget
represents the type of financial activity we expect. And furthur, we guarantee to
provide the Council with a detailed report af the Celebration within two months
after the final event.
I'm not sure, at this point, how we should handie any excess funds after thp
celebration, I do feel the Board and the Council should get together sometime
following the event and before the 1979 City Budget is fi�rmed-up,�to review
the whole program.
If you have any questions regarding the Celebration, please feel free to call
me. I will attend the March 20th Cauncil Meeting and avail myself to any
questions you may have.
Yours truly,
�

INF(?
JAMES P. HILL R
LT. RICK X
We have been experiencing increasing incidents where vehicles are
being driven across business and residential lawns, as well as
school and park properties. .I had a situation last evening where
I observed a vehicle driving acr�ss the lawn area of Stevenson
School and when I searched our ordinances for an enforcement citation,
I coul.ci find none. The only possible charges possible were reckless
driv.ing or criminal damage to property, neither oi which fit my
particular incident. �
I had an opportunity to discuss this subject with Mr. Newquist this
evening and it was the consensus that we could use and need a speCific
ordinance which would cover this type of conduct. Perhaps the
ordinance could be worded similar to the parks ordinance which
prohibits vehicles from driving off rQ�.dway�s in park areas. Some-
thing could be devised which prohibits a11 motor vehicles (including
mini-bikes) from driving acros� priva�e or public prop�rties other
than roadways made for that purpose, without express written
permission. Whatever the legal wording,.something in this order
is needed.
Request this concept be given to the City legal staff for opinion
and for necessary research.

Chairper�on iiarx•is �aid tlia.t a list of threQ �.tems vras agreed upon at

a) �Public .�ddress System oif, except in emer�encies.
b) Eli.minate the noi�y air conditi�ning system.
c) Truck deliveries between the hours of 8:00 A.M. and 9:00 P,M,
ONLY
Chairperson Aarris asked if these three items had been taken care of.
Mr. Menard of Menard Cash1ray Lumber, 5351 Central Ave. NE, said that
they had shut off the Public Address System outside the rear building
area. He said that there had not been a truck at t�e operation before
8:00 A,1�I, or after 9:00 P,M, since the meeting. He said that he
built a saw shed to eliminate some of the noise that the saw vJas
maliing, anc� he said that �he air conditioning system was being worked
on by Minn�gasco.
Mr. Seeger of. Menard Cash���ay Z,umber Company said that he had received
a complaint that truck noise ���as coming from the direction of the
buildin� at 6:15 A,Mo on a given morning. He said that they ha.d
checked a11 the Guard's records, and no truck vras reported near their
operation at that time. He wasn � t sure rrhere the iloise �rras coming from. �
Ms. Mary �,. Matheti��s of 1259 Sky�xrood Lane NaE., said that the Menard's
dumpster truck ti�ras emptying the dumpster located on the l�ft side
of the rienard�s buildin�. She said that the dwnping occurred at
6:15 Li.rl, on a Saturday morning.
Mr. rsena.rd said that they had no records of th� fact that the dumpster
vaas emptied at that time on any Saturday.
Ms. Mathetivs pointed out that the lumber inventory in the Menards yard
was above the fence, She �vanted to knotiv vrhen they would be made to
abide by the present codes.,
Chairperson Harris asked Ms. Mathews if there had been any improvement
at all since the reUruary 15th meeting.
Ms. Ma�hetivs said that she actually hadn't been home that much. However,
she said that the noise ivas still bad. She did indicate that she had
not recently heard the Public Address System. She sa.id that Menards
�till hadn't cleaned up tlieir operation fx�om the visual aspect.
Ms, Mathetvs felt that i�ienards tivas a"cheap" aperation. She said that
Menards did not �vant to put money into the cleanin� up of the operation.
She had come to the realization that she doesn't Uelieve that Menards
tiri1�. ever be cleaned up. She said that she tivas very bitter over the .
t��hole situation. She didn't feel that Menards vras really compatible
��rith the area. She said that it ���as obvious that they moved into the
vrrong area and �vere a1�1 owed to expand at �vill. 'Novr she wanted to kno��r
�vhat could be done from the citizenry vietivpoint. .

Mr, Sce�er said that in Lhe pas� six month� Menards had done almost
evcr.ythin� possible to restore soms �ood-will in the nei�hborhood. 3$
He said they had black-topped the rear ar�ea� 1:hey haa fixed-up the .
r�cks� t:hey pr. ovided tr. ash barrels in i;he park�r�g lots and replaced
them �vher� they v�ere destroyed by people. He said that they quit
pushing snovr on property that didn't belong to �hem. He said
Menards had the loud speakers turned a��vay from the neighborhood
residential area and tnen short]_y after triat t��ey had �he Public
Address system 1;urned off entirel.y a� the rear of the.building.
He said that they had built.a sa�� shed io help eliminate the noise.
Mr. Seeger said that Menards no lonoer allo�ved the trucks to make
deliveries or pick-ups before 8:00 I�.M, or after 9:00 P.M. He said
that he felt that Menards tivas trying to do thei.r best to cooperate.
He said that Menards ti�ras really trying to do the right things.
Chairperson Harris told Mr. Menard �hat �here was a City Ordinance
that said storag� should not er.tend above the fences.
Mr. 13oardman said that storage material had to be screened from the
Public Right of 4'day. He said that all materials that were screened
had to be screened tt��o feet beloti�r the highest level of the fence
vaith the r�a�:imum height of the fence being eight feet.
Mr. Lang of 1278 Skyi+�ood Lane said that he mainiy opposed the
Special Use Permit because of the t;raffic problem. He said that
the Garden Center ti�rould only add to already e�isting traffic hazard,
He said that he felt that once the intersection improvement ��ras
finished, he tvould have no objections to Menards adding a Garden Center.
He felt �hat �:he present ti�e ti�ras bad for such a venture. He didn't
fecl it tilras �he proper time to encoura.ge ad�itional usage of tne area.
Mse Mathetivs ��Janted to knotiv hotix� the rZenard Cashc�Jay Lumber Company
could be considered a"compatible" operation. She said that n� one
really gives her any ans��rers, She said that the Company originally
S�rent in the area as a small remodeling operation and �vas allo��fed
to expand comple�ely at �vill. She didn � t feel it �vas fair that the
resiaents in the area merely had to "live" ��rith the fact that the
operation is in existenceo She said she ti�rasn�t actually suggesting
tha� Menards completely pull ou�t of the area but merely reduce back
to its original intent. She felt that as a citizen she had been
cheated.
6hairperson Harris said that the only anstti►er he had ��ras that there �vas
nothing in the Zoning Codes that prohibited that particular type of
operation. He said ti:ey �vere trying to make the Uest situation of
what they had. He said they only had the codes that ti��ere in e�:istence.
He said they could only try to ti��ork together to tr,y to. make the tivhole
situation a lot more liveable far e�Teryone involved.

Mr. Langenfeld addres�ed t�[r. Lang, He said that he understood his
position a� far' as the traffic problem in that area, Y�ovrever, he
personally felt that traffic a].one �a�a , not enough t� deny the Special
Use P�rmi.t. He said that if it could de�'initely be proven i.t was
agaxnUt the health, safety, and welf.are of the peo'�l.e, then possibly
it could be a reason for denia�..
Mr. Lang a�reed tha� his objections addressed a potenti�Z problem.
Ae vran�ed to know if everyone tiras gain� to wait until some tragedy
happened before action i�rould. be t�tien. He fe].t that the City should
try to prevent tragedies from happenin�. He said that the pra�c�ed
garden center vrauld only add to the problem. He said that if the
high�vay improvement �ras no� scheduled for this tim�:; he �xoul� have
no objections. He said �hat the issue �vas an unusual situation. He
said that not adding to �;he already existing confusion in that area
was the responsibility of the City. He said that the least amount
of traffic should be encouraged to use that area during the time
vf the cons�ruction.
Mr. Langenfeld definitely agreed <<rith Mr� Lang's comments. He said
that he felt �he t�rhole area tivas abnormaZ as far �s traveling and the
traffic situation. He said that .Mr,,:Lang's comtnents would be kPpt
in mind by the Commission in making their decision.
Mr� Langenfeld asked if Ms. Mathetivs v�ras satisfied t�,ri�h the
meei;ing that had been conducted on February 15: �978�
Mse i2atre�vs said that she had not been home much during the �ime
since the meeti.ng. She iaras upset by the 6:15 A,Ni, zrcident vrith �he
trash recepticle truck and she said she h�d occasior. io be home tli��
afternoon (March 8�kij and that the no�.se �va.s extr. emeo She said
that she ��ranted Menards ta lolver the level of tneir storage so that
it �vasn't over the fences, She indi�at�ed that the main reasons for
tha�: request �ras that by lotiverin� the stacks, Menard.s 1�rould have to
lower their inventory and thus they tivould cut th� loadin�; and uiiloading
of the lumber. She really believed that Menarc�s had been allal�ed to
expand at free will and she felt that if there �jras a code that
could controZ their e�pansion,. then she tivanted to see that cocie
enforced.
r4r. Langenfeld said that at t�mes the Commissian came across si.tuations
which perhaps as individuals they trrere zzot entzre1.y for or� tivhatever
(no� saying they tiver•c for or against the present issue) , but he
exp�.a�ned that �hey had to abide by cer�ain rules and re�uZ�zt:.ons and
tivith the particular issue it ti�ras zona.ng9 �tc. He expla.i.ned that no
matter hotv much the commission members did or dic� not Iike a situa�i.on
there ��ras no� much they could do other than abid� by thasc rules and
re�ulations. He tiver�t on to explain that Menards �vas requesting a
SpECia1 Use Permit, He saia tlla� the Commission could set certain
.stipulations on that permit tha� could e;taUlish a lot of con�rol by
the City on the O�erat�on.

Mr. Lan�;enfeld said that �.n �he Pl.annin� Commissi.on meetin� mznu�es
of January 25� 19'78, he had pointed out �;hat in thP past Menards
had not a1.vr��ys been cooper. ative vrith �he Ci �y and he definitely
agreed �hat a comp7_ete study of the iire lanes, �raffic flow and
�eneral safety, and proper remnval of rubba.sh anci proper clean up
o£ the premis�s t�l:e pl.ace daily. Iie sa.id that in oiher tvords
to give Menards a means of shotivin� the City a g�nuine display of
"good iaith". He felt that since the door had been opened between
the parti.e� involved in th.e conflict that perhaps an agreement could
be made.
Mr. Langenfe2d asked vrhere the gresnh�use �vould be lvcatedo
Mr. Seeger said that it v��ould be Iocated next to the building,
to the North.
Chairperson Harris asked hovr much additional traffic M enards'
garden cen�;er crould ge�.erate.
I�Ir. Menard aaid that they estimated the sales to be approxi.mately
�75,000 for the openin.� period, He pointe� out that due to the
time involved l��ith obtaining the .Special Use �'ermit, he tirasn't sure
he ��rauld have the time enough to order alz that he ti��anted to for
the CTarden Center venture. He said that he didn't have a iigure
of hol�� many additional people would be generated. He said that he
expected that a great nurr,ber of the garden center customers tvould
be people tha� already pa�ronized J��enardse
Mr. Lang said that he felt l��enards had to have some estimated
figures before they ever deci.ded to tak� on such a venture. He said
that any business had to justify a garden center befare actually
puttin� one in. He said that there rlad to be a def�.nite px�ofZt
reali�,ed and tha� Menards must have had some figures to base ihat
expected profit on.
Mr. Langenf�ld indica�ed that Menards had said that t�ie Garden Center
was experimei�tal. He said that possibly during tha� experiment,
Menards �vould then estimate exactly <<rhat amaunt of business the Ce�ter

rir. Langenfeld stated that he couldn't understand tv�y thEre �vas so

Mr. Seeger sa_id �hat some of the plans for the Garden Center were va�ue
bzcause of the delays they tirere having getting the Special Use Permit.
He said that they hadn�� gotten ta the point of the actual planning
because they 1�lanted to make sure they could ;et a Permit.
Ms. Mather�s said that she strongly opposed Menard's Garden Center.
She sazd it i��ouia add to �he already deteriorating situation of

Mr, Ber�man said that Menards ��rould have to abid� by the ordinances

Mr. Ber�man said that directly effectzn� the r�quest, the Garden

it vras t��e1Z screened fror,l the resident;ial areae He d�.dn't think
that i� had any direct bearin� on any of the reside�tial conf3.icts
with Menards.
Mr. Lan�enfeld said that his general opinion ti��as tha� if the entire
situation U�as to be improvEd, then the improvement should �e made by
rienards improving the existing facility. He said that he did not
feel that Menards e�ould suffer a hardship in the eveni that the
particular garden center did not exist. He said that perhaps in the
coming years, the traffic flo�sr ti�ould be impraved. ancl I�Ienards hi.story
would u�ost 1ikely be a different stor•y. He said at that time, perhaps,
the Commission could act again on the issue.
Mr. Boardman said that from a Planning standpoint there ��rere real
problems �vith the r�questo He sa.id fha� the City af Fridley was
trying to�elimznate the temparary-�ype requests, He said that
because o�' the type of situation ancl because it ��as a temporary

financial commitment to make �he operation ti�rork� He said they merely
t�rantea to try it as an experiment at the expense of the neighbors and

Mr. Langenfel,d said that some.of the reasnns for his recommending
denial ti�rere that he did not fee1. �hat th�; lack of a gard�n center
tvould create a hardship on the existing busi.ness. He said that it
v�as a speculative venture that Menards ti�ras hoping to undertake and
the temporary nature of the entire �arden center concept did not meet
to his -likina. • He said that he ti�ras deepl.y concerned about the
already abnorinal traffic situati.on. �Ie said that he v�tas not anti-
business� but he felt it Nas the proper �otion to maks.
Ms. Shea said that Mr� Menard had mentioned the possibility of
returning next year tivith the request for a garden center and she
hoped that he would decide to do �that. She said that maybe a one- �
year cooling off period might be a good idea, She said that possibly
by next ' year they ��roul�n't have the m�.�„Y under�Iying problems.
Mr. Bergman re-enforced Ms. Shea's �omm�nts. He felt th�t withou�
question the underlying neighborhood �oroblems had put an excessive
burden on the issue. He said that he hoped M�r�ards paid some
atiention to the discussion that had gone on and he hoped they titro�ld
re-address the request at a future time.
Chairperson Harris said that he ti�rould vote against the motion
because he didn't feel there was a strong enough case for denial.
He said that the i�affic situation ti�as not the Fetitioner's problem�
he said it �ras the City's, He said that the situation bet��reen the
neighborhood and P4r. T��ez�ar. d had been an on-going situation. zvhich he
didn't feel the City, in the past, had done its i�est 'to resolve
until recently. He didn't believe t;ha� the m�nner in tivhich the
<<rhole situation �ras handled vras ;_n the best inter�st of the City,
the neighbors� or Mr. Menard.
Chairperson Harris said that he did not like semi--temporary operations.
Hoti��ever, he was not certain that the City really tiaanted that garden
center at �that location� and tha�L maybe in another year it vrould be
decided that it �vould be better at a di�ferent location, if at all.
He said that he had not heard a valid reason to deny the Special
Use Permit request.
Chairperso� Harris reminded the Comraission that the burden of denial.
for a Pernit was upon the City. He said that the burden of proo� for
��variance tvas upon the petitioner to shoiv a hardship,
Mr. Boardman said that he tivas not necessarily against the granting
of a Special Use Permit for the Garden Center in general. iie was
against the temporary feature of the oarden center. He said it tivas
the type of thing that the City of Fridley ��ras tryin; to clean-up.
He said the iemporary garden center at that location ti�rould be at the
expense of �he visual aspects of the entire shopping center.
rir. Peterson said that a precedent had been estaUlished Nhen the City
allotired Holiday V.illage to "try out" their garden center for a number
of years. He felt that the City had an obli�atian to encaurage
- that type pf operation. He said that �he City did have an obligation
to help businesses in the City. �

Mr..Boardman said that the City oi Fridley could nct continue to 3 u

or vrill not ��v�ork�'. He said that he rea'lly felt there c�ere other
locations in the P�enard� s operation ���here they could "try" a garden
center on a temporary basis tiarhere it tivouldn't cantribute to the visual
pollution in the area.
Nir. Ber�an sa�.d that even though they �rrere unabl� to come up �rith
a specific code related to the reasons for denial, he felt that
there �vere many concerns �hat rrere all relating to the outside
expansion of the Nienard�s activity.
Mr. Langenfeld emphasized the fact that he ���as not•against business,
He said that he was a��rare ef the procedures in vrhich Special Use

He felt tha� the t�hole situation tivas very interesting because he rras

Ms. Schnabel m�ntioned tti�o net��spaper articles she had talked
abou� at a previous Planning �ommission meeting. .She felt that
the a.rticles did pertain to the Hyde Park area and could be items
that may be discussed re�arding the rehabilitation of that area.
She said tha� one of the paints addressed the taxin� issue.
1� ��Localities should revise their �ax codes so that families
ti=rho impr�ve their homes needn�t fear immedza�e, high property-
tax hikes. St� Louis offers a 10-�year abatementg for
instance. And on Bosiom�s mouel9 cities should set up one-
stop officies to help people �vi�h rehabi.litation problems."
She said that �;he other point addressed �he building codes:
2. "Ci�ies nust cut dotvn on the underbrush of regu?atzons,
permits, and s�ecial taxes imposed on r'rehab" activity.
They should enac� separate housing codes for

l�is. Schnabel explained that i-L had to be realized that a great deal

Mr, I3oardman said that he didn � t think there ���ould be a lot of 3��

tha� since I�'edera7. monies v;ouJ.d be involvec�, before any money Nrould
be relEased, inspectors 1��ou1.d have to �o to �he site and mal�e sure
tha� the job tivas done correctly and that it ���a.s up to the code,
i�e said that the City ti�ras recommendin� that con-�rac�Gors be hired to
do the r;ork so �hat the ���ork vrould have �o be done correctly�before
any money vrould be released.
Ms. Schnabel ti��as not in full. agreement with that concept.
Chairperson H�rris said that he didn't tha.nk the City had �he
choice. He said fi.hat the ���ay the State-vride building code tiras
set up ti�ias that the City could not be more restrictive or Iess
restrictive. He saici tha� if a�ity ���as to have a buildin� code
it had to adopt that particular builc�ing code. He said to get
variances to �he nuilding Cac�es ��ras a very difficul.t process.
Mr. Boardman said that he had tivritten to the City of Ste Louis

He said thai; he sti11. haa no� rec�ived a response to his request.

Both t.l�.i; Director and the assislant of. th�� i�linnesoLa tIumanities Commission
tiacl apolo�i.ied for n�t advising Uc:yond wh�L thcy had advised for making
chan�;es . So, they had a>ked Dr. .Si.ngh Co r.csui�mit Lhe application. Zn
the original application, thcre �aere ten sess3_ans, and Dr. 3ingh stated
that would be changecl to wix or seven sessz.ans. Anot-Y�er reason why the
application ta�s rejecled was beczuse more local i�i�cii.ng was needed. The
requcsL oias for. $2,5��0. The other J_ocal funding was anticipaLion thLOUgh
the IIuman Itesources Commission's efforts tv get_ at J.cast $500 througll the
City ox some otY�er concern. The Minnesota iiumanit-ies Co�rnnission felt
there should be a litzle more communiL-y interest in the issue than was
i.ndicated. He stal;ed the other fi�uxes for matchict� �llI1CiS were simply
tigures which the office plugged in to co�ipensat'e for voluntary help.
Dr. Singh stated these sessions would no�a have to be held in the fa11
rather than in the surL-ner. He suggested tl�at if the Co:nmiss9.on wished to
resuUrnit this applicati.on, L-here be another sponsor in �lace of Redeem�r
Lutheran Church. Tl�e sponsor had to be an institution or oraanzzation.
He sug�ested that the Human Resources Commissi_on could become the ap�licant
insl:ead of the ck�urch. He stated this was only a sugbestion and th�
Co:nmissioners may have another name or or�anzzation. The Comriission coula�
talk about this and resubmit the applicatian i.n the summer in time for the
sessions to be held in the falJ..
llr. Sing}.z stated that the seccnd thing he �va�.ted to ta11c abou� was that
since Iie had made a cornmitment to tize sgeaicer.s listed i.iz i:he application
arid L-he dat�s establislied, he felt it would be a shame to scrap all this
woric. IIe felt they should go ahe.ad taith the medical ethics program on a
limited scale. This would be to have six meetings on six t�Tec3ziesdays,
March 29 - May 3, and to have four spealcers. He could speak at the iirst
and si�Lh sessi_ons or there could be anotlzer spealcer for the sixth session.
The program would be as follows:
March 3 � Dr
�4pri1 5 - Dr .
Ap.riZ 12- Dr.
/1pri1 19- Dr .
April 26- Dr.
May 3 - Dr.
Singh - issues relating to medical ethics and problems

Kenneth Bailey, Philosopher - ri�t�ts of pai:ients vs

r4a�'well Barr, Physician, Methodist Hospital - AUortion
Fred Shapiro, Physician, Hennepin CouiYty liospitaZ -
artificial. Icidney and transplant
l3ruce Reicllenbach, I'hilosop'.�er - �tithanasia
Singli o- another speak�:r
Mr. Bel.�;um sL•ated I�e wondered if the Unity Iiospiial I�uxiliary could be
the ap�licant. r1r. Belgum sug�ested that Dr. Sin�h contact the Chaplain
of Unity Hospitat, Rev. Sonnenberg. �le thou�ht it t�ould be a logical
source for at least a co-sponsor or participant in scmie way. He felt
medic��l eCltics taas �3 very importanL- issue and.he would Ue in favor of
supporting it. �ahether tlle fiuman Resources Couunission silould be tlae
applicant or ��ot, he dic] not k�iow; but he dict know iC �aas noL- a good ide�.�
to h��ve a church a s Che applicanC .

Dr. Sin�;h st.ated L-ha� thc:;e short sessi.ons ttiis spring woul.d need tt�nding
also. He L-hou�hL Possitily the �lumait Rcsou�°ces Crnrnnissian coulcl request
some fundzng from wl;a�ever source e1�ey coul.d. He feLL the shortened
progxa�n woulcl cost approxi.maL-ely $500. He fi.bureci �zbout $4-0 Lor each
speaker, $25 for the maleraeor (which posi.t-ion he would fill), and L-ravel
expenses ar. ound $10-15 k��r spealc�r . Al l Lhis ciid not take into consi�er-
ation L-he time hc had spent on this proposal,
Mr. Tleming asked Dr. SlI1�,I1 if Dr. Singh had consi_dered the poLential
explosiveness of these topics and the kind of direction the-speakers might
take.
Dr. Singh stated that some of tllese topics were very explosive. This was
to be e�;pected. Dr. Singh stated he had told each speaker they had one
hour to discuss the subjecL vbjectively. Tl�en there would be a second
hour in which he would monitor the subject and address questicns from the
audience to ti�e spealcer �aho woul.d answer tliese questions . He was sure
same people would feel explosive ancl tlzey were right to express their
opinions.
Mr. Fle�ning stated that knowing the slant of the presentations would aid
in getting funding. If the presentations were going to be objecL-ive, this
would help ir, getting funding.
Dr. Singh stated he cou7.d assure the Gomm9.ssiori tliat the p�esentations
would be objecti_ve.
Mr. Belgum recc,:�ended tLat the Director of: Unity Hosgital also be con-
tacted for quick action on the short spring pr��ram. Mr. Belgum �:lso stated
that thc CommLtnity Schools Advisory Coi7unission had money in its budget for
things lilce this. He suggested Dr. Singh conta.ct ATr. Tom Myl�ra, Director
of Coma�unity Schools, and descril�e this edtYCational progr..am that addzessed
the �,�liole corrununity. PIr. Belgum felt this supplernented what the pubZic
scliools were doing.
Ur. Singh stated that might be more appropriate for the fall sessions as
qui.cic actiun �aas needed no�a. His personal rea�tion to doing something
with tt1P hospital was to work initially with ti�e ah�Ie t�ospital program
to get approval, and he did i�ot know if thcy would have time ior that.
� It could be iizvestigated for the �all sessi.ons. Also, some physicians
may objeci: because these Icinds of discussions could bive them exposure
they did not care for. It couZd mean encroachment on the ri�hts and
preragatives of the physician. '
Dr. Sin�h stated L-hat tie would lilce to sug�est for. the grogram that there
be no charge, but a$5 registration. People were n�ore inclined �o attend
if they had conunittc�d some money.
Dr. Sin;;h sr.ated, also, that for ttie fall program, the t.�cility sliould
accoinniodate 100 people .
