Mr. Sobiech, Public Works Director, stated the City and School District '„'14
would share in the cost of this improvement, with no cost to the property
owner
Mr. Sobiech stated, hopefully, the City could work with the property cwner,
Mr. Saunders, on some easements in order to have the proper alignment for
the sidewalk.
Mr. Sotriech stated Mr. Saunders has shrubbery alon9 his property and the City
would have to work with him on replacement and landscaping
Mayor Nee explained that the request for the sidewalks was made by the
School Board to facilitate the school children who would be going to Hayes
School, as a result of the closing of �arkview Scheol.
, Mr. ,]im Hedren, representing School District #14, stated they don't anticipate
a large volume of traffic in that area He stated there always will be
children walking to school whether or not there ts bus service provided.
Councilman Schneider stated he noted the Parks and Recreation Commission
recommended a d�fferent route for the sidewalks and asked what this would
tnvolve.
PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF APRIL 1D, 1978 PAGE 5
Mr. Sobiech stated the Commission's recommendation was to move the sidewalk
East of 7th Street, along the Junion High School property, for a tie into
Monroe Street. He stated this would involve acquiring some easements from
private property owners
Councilman Schneider stated there were several other concerns raised at the
last meeting regarding the sprinkler system, fencing, trees, etc.
Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated it would cost about $4,000 to relocate
all these items.
Mr. Hedren stated they did not want to cause any problems with the park
and stated if these are the�requirements, the School District is certainly
willing to go 50/50 on the cost.
Mr. Qureshi stated'Councilman Barnette had discussed these additional costs
with the School Board, after Mr. P�erce had attended the previous meet�ng
Mr. Hedren stated another aspect, which hasn't been finalized, is the use
of Parkview School as a Community School and the serving of lunches to senior
citizens. He stated,w�th construction of the sidewalk, it would also provide
access for the senior citizens to the school.
Mr. Sob�ech stated that, with development of the senior citizen and housing
complex, sidewalks will be installed by the developer along the West side of
7th Street,
Mr Qureshi pointed out that, at the present time, the City would not relocate
the ballfields, however, some signing wou7d be put up. It would be necessary,
however, to relocate trees and some of the sprinkling system.
Councilman Schneider questioned if the City would be opening itself to
some additional liability by not moving that ballfield and someone was hit
by a ball.
Mr. Qureshi stated he felt, when sidewalks are along a park, you always have
thts potential. He felt it would be safer if the ball f�elds were relocated
and backstops installed, however, this would result in additional cost.
Mr. Qureshi stated the School Board has indicated that whatever cost is
involved, they will contribute 50%.
Mr. Saunders, the affected property owner, indicated he had no ob�ection to
the sidewalk construction and would give easement to the City as long as
there is no sidewalk assessment to their property.
Mr. Qureshi stated an easement wiii be necessary from Mr. Saunders and the
City would work with him on any replant�ngs and landscaping.

PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF APRIL 10, 1978 PAGE 6
Mr. Sobiech, Pu61ic Works Director, stated staff has met with Mr. Rolstad
regarding his requests for a special use permit and lot spl�t. He stated
it was learned that potential buyers of the property have indicated they plan
to construct a garage. Mr. Sobiech felt, therefore, the stipulation of the
garage requirement, in con,7unction with the lot split, would be no problem.
He felt there should be an additional stipulation on the garage that it be
compieted by September 1, 1979.
Mr. Sobiech stated staff would recommend the driveway access be from
Street to the rear yard. He stated this was done on property to the
North and has worked out satisfactorily. Mr. Sobiech stated there is
possi6tlity of the garage being attached to the house which would
necessitate the need for a variance.
2nd
the
Mr. Sobtech stated one alternative, which the staff would not recommend,
is access from 46th Avenue through vacated properties. He felt this would
involve certain liabtlity questions between three different property owners
for vehicles and equipment going through the close quarters.
Mr. Sobiech stated Mr. Rolstad felt there would be no problem in having
the garage requ�rement put in the abstract so any potential buyer would be
aware they would have to construct a garage.
MOTIoN 6y Councilman F�tzpatrick to concur with the recommendation of the
Planning Commission and grant Lot Split #78-01, as requested by Harvey
Rolstad, with the stipulation that a garage be constructed on the property
by September 1, 1979, and recommend that this garage have access from 2nd
Street; further, the City take steps to make sure this is apparent in the
abstract. Seconded by Councilman Schneider. Upon a voice vote, all voting
a��e, Mayor Nee declared the mot�on carried una m mously.
MOTION 6y Councilman F�tzpatrick to concur with the recommendat�on oF
the Plamm �g Commission and approve Special Use Permit #78-03, as
requested by Harvey Rolstad, Seconded by Councilman Hamernik. Upon a
voice vote, all vottng aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously
Later in the meeting, Mr. Rolstad advised he had s�gned a purchase agreement
for hts property and has indicated certatn garage requirements to the buyer.
He stated one thing put in the purchase agreement was the option for access
from 46th Avenue through the vacated alley.
Councilman Fitzpatrick indicated there may be certain problems involved with
access from 46th Avenue and asked Mr. Sobiech to review the comments he made
earl�er.
Councilman Fitzpatr�ck stated, if the buyer feels strongly about access from
46th Avenue, he has the right to petition for this, but felt he did not want
to change the motion to automatically give that access.
Mayor Nee felt the buyer could work out an access, without City approval,
because it involves private land.
Mr. Rolstad pointed out that he felt the buyer would build an attached
garage.
Mayor Nee stated there proba6ly would be more of a problem to build an
attached garage, because of the extreme variance required, and the buyer
would have to apply for a variance.
Mr. Quresht, City Manager, pointed out that whether the access is from
2nd or 46th, it has to 6e a paved access.
Mr. Sobiech stated staff would review, with �r. Rolstad, the stipulations
of the lot split regarding construction of the garage no later than
September 1, 1979, and the requ�rements for a paved access.

by the Council at their meeting of January 23, 1978. At that time,
it was suggested that perhaps Mr and Mrs. White could share in the cost
of the culvert extension. Since the property owner did noi wish to share
in the cost of the extension, the request for the extension was denied
by Counc�l.
Mr. Sobiech stated, since this time, staff has worked with Mr. and Mrs.
White and there has been an agreement regarding the extension of the
culverts which is now before the Council for consideration.
Mr. Sobiech stated what the agreement covers is that Mr. and Mrs. White
would purchase the materials for one culvert extension and the City would
provide the materials for the remaining culvert extension and all instaliation

problem. The cost to Mr. and P1rs. White would be $�26 and the cost to the
City would be $1,309

that pa rt�cular clause
Councilman Fitzpatrick felt poss�bly actton shouldn't be taken on the
agreement without the City Attorney present.
Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, felt the Council could approve the agreement
with deletion of Item 4, and if this is not agreeable to the property
owner, it would be brought back to the Council
MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to amend the agreement by deletion of Item
4. Seconded by Councilman Schneider.
Regarding Item 5, Councilman Hamer m k questioned if the City is assuming

Mr Qureshi stated the cost of the two satellites is about $90 per month.

Seconded by Councilman Barnette.
Mr. Ed Wilmes, representing the Islands of Peace Foundation, stated the
School District paid for these satellites up until September, 1977. He
stated the charge for these services was $674 from September, 1977, through
April, 1978, however, two were stolen, which insurance did not cover, so the
total billing was $933.
Mr Wilmes stated the Islands of Peace made a payment of �535, leaving a
balance of 3398 and requested the City also pay this amount.
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated he had no ob�ection to adding to the motion
that this b�ll of $398 be included.
WITH PERMISSION OF HIS SECON�ER, Counci1man Barnette, Councilman Fitzpatrick
requested that the payment of $398 for the outstanding bill be included in
the motion.
Councilman Hamernik stated he would suggest that, if the City supplies the
sanitation facilities, the sign "No Bicycles Allowed" be taken down.
Mr. Wilmes stated he has had complaints from persons on the trails being
harrassed by the Bicycles. He stated there is a btc.ycle rack available
by the gate where bicyclists can park and lock their 6ikes.
Gouncilman Hamernik stated he has no objections to the sign, if there is a
group at the Islands of Peace, but couldn't see why the sign couldn't be
taken down in the evening
Mr. Wilmes stated they have requests for use of the Islands of Peace in
the evening and felt there are oth�r areas for the bicyclists.
Mr. Alex Barna, 560 Hugo Street, stated bikes aren't allowed on the
sidewalks and felt they shouldn't be allowed in an area where there �s
pedestrian traffic that isn't agile.
� PUBI_IC HEARING MEE7ING OF APRIL 10, 1978
PAGE 9
Mr. W�lmes stated one of the agreements the Islands of Peace made with people
who provided the funds is that this area will be available to persons who are
denied use in other areas. He felt, if this �s opened up in the evening
for b�cycles, it would be denying the concept of what the Islands of Peace
is all about
Mayor Nee asked if there was a way to compromise this by saying the bicyclists
have to walk their bikes instead of ridtng them.
Mr W�lmes stated, �f the bicyclists come in groups, there is no room for
anyone else. He stated �nstitut�ons will not hr7ng their people out to
an area where there are motorized vehicles or bicycles. He felt there are
other areas in the City for bicycle use.

Councilman Fitzpatrick, Councilman Barnette, Mayor Nee and Councilman

MOTION by Councilman Schneider to receive the letter from Mr. Virgil
Nardgren. Seconded by Councilman Barnette. Upon a voice vote, all voting
aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously.
Mr, qureshi, City Manager, stated the present ordinances do not allow the
discharging of firearms. He stated, if the Council desires to allow this
request, it would necessitate an amendment to the City code.
Councilman Barnette questtoned if this was part of being a gunsmith, to
try out weapons in your home.
Mr. Alex &arna,560 Hugo Street, stated that Mr. Nordgren is partially
handicapped and this was the reason hestarted the gunsmith bustness.
He felt, under normal conditions, a gunsmith would probably to out to
a shooting ran9e to check the weapons, but it would be a difficulty in
Mr Nordgren's case.
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated the comments from Mr. Nill, Publrc Safety
Director, indicated this could be accommodated. He felt, if the
Pu61ic Safety Department had no ob�ections, the Council should consider
it.
Councilman Hamernik questioned if anyone would be permitted to put in
such a facility in their home.
Mayor Nee felt possibly it could be handled on the basis of a permit
so if it was a nuisance, the permit could be revoked. The City staff
was asked to check into this further and draw up something along the
l�ne of possibly requiring a permit.
