OPEN FORUM, VISITORS: . �
Mr. Ed Wilmes, stated he had an opportunity to speak out for the merits of
the Islands of Peace at an April meeting with the Metropolitan Council, but
was advised not to go to the meeting and because�he didn't speak out, the
Metropolitan�Council did not receive correct information on the IslanGs of Peace.
He stated, since that time> he has met with the Metropotitan Council because
one of the issues at the April meeting was a statement that other regional
parks have the some facilities as the Islands of Peace. He stated this was
false and people who are knowledgable about outdoor recreation for the handicapped
have taken tours of the regional parks and now realize they were hasty and
wrong and that the Islands of Peace is unique.
Mr. Wilmes�stated he hoped there is a resolution by the Council to make a
recorienendation that Anoka County proceed to make an amendment to their plan
to include the Islands of Peace and that the City will do everything they
can to cooperate with the County for acqusition of this land. He stated he
hopes the Metropolitan Council nav realizes that what these areas need are
the proper facilities.

REGULAR MEETING OF MAY p),�97g PAGE 2
Mr. Benjamin, stated Win Stephens is currently at their peak in their parts and
service department and there is a need for expansion and Shey would like to
add a botly.shop. He felt this was a necessary project to service their customers.
Mr. Benjamin stated the project, in terms of benefits to the City, would add
approximately $325,000 in additional annual payroll and increase the�employees
from 12 tu 20.
Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, stated, in discussions with the attorney for
Win Stephens �atsun North, he understands the funding of this project would �
be in the form of a tax exempt mortgage. -
Councitman Schneider questioned ifi there was some question about the le9ality
of tax ezempt mortgages. �
Mr. Herrick stated there has been some question about the legality for residential
purposes, but doesn't think there has�been aqy question for commercial or �
industrial purposes.
Mr. Herrick explained this project would be done through the industrial revenue
�bond chapter of the Minnesota Statutes and the original concept would be �
that they would sell bonds to finance the project, however, now this has �'
evolved to the point that, in some cases, instead of selling bonds, they �
finance it through a mortgage. He was sure there wasn't aqy legal problem, '
as it is accepted by the Internal Revenue Service and financial institutions. '
Counci7man Schneider questioned�if there was insurance in this proposal to i
back up the project in the event of default.
Mr. Herrick stated, in this situation, whoever finances the project, takes a !
mortgage on the property and if the loan is not repaid, the one holding the '
rtartgage would end up with the property. ;
MOTION by Councilwoman Moses to adopt Resolution No. 73-1979 giving preliminary
approval to a proposed industrial development project to be constructed and
financed under the Minnesota Municipal Industrial Development Act, authorizing
the preparation of documents and�materiais in connection with the project.
Seconded by Councilman Schneider. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor
Nee declared the motion carried unanimousty.
Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, pointed out that pre7iminary�approval for the
industrial revenue mortgage does not mean approval of the building plans and
that this would be a separate item which must be reviewed and approved.

1(i 4
REGULAR MEETING OF MqY 21, 1979 PAGE 4
Mr. Sobiech, Public Works Director, stated staff felt this was a minimal type
of encroachment and would not impact the drainage flow.
Mr. Sobiech stated the main consideration is that the filt doesn't block
drainage into the main pipe, and to follow the policy to insure maintenance
of the drainage system. � .
Mr. Swanson stated�at the corner of his lot there is an inlet pipe and the �
basement elevation would be hi.gher than the pipe. � �
Mr. Sobiech felt, if the house was properly constructed in the lot, there
shouldn't�be aqy problems with drainage.
MOT.ION by Councitman Schneider to grant permission to encroach seven feet
into the drainage�easement on Lot 3, Block 2,�Innsbruck North, as requested by

by Councilman Barnette. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared
the motion carried unanimously.
CONSIDERATION OF IMPLEMENTATION OF LARGE FAMILY NOME OWNERSHIP PROGRAM:
Mr. Sobiech, Public Works Director, stated several months ago, Council discussed
the bonus money that was available from HUD pertaining to implementation of
the targe famity ownership program. He stated the City made application for �
this money and the program would consist of acquisition of substandard homes,
relocation of the�people to other homes and appropriate write down of
various�costs for a new structure. He stated the new homes would be available
to appl�icants that meet the criteria that is set up.
Mr. Sobiech stated a preliminary app7ication was submitted to HUD and in
this particular case, HUD felt prelimiinary application oras all that was necessary,
although there was some problem witfi the application since it didn't include
the process involved. Once the process was discussed, HUD felt comfortable
with�the application and will issue the money once the Council requests they
released the funds.
Mr. Sobiech reviewed the qualifications for participation in this program,
as outlined in a letter to Mary Youte of the HUD Office from Jerry Boardman,
City Planner. . �
Mr. Sobiech stated the City would receive a6out $130-$132,000 which would
allow for approximatety three or�four acquisitions and relocation of existing
families. Cauncilman Fitzpatrick asked, in these acquisitions, if there would
be a new house on each of the acquired properties. Mr. Sobiech stated there
would be where it is possible, however, they have one parcei in mind that is
120 feet and this may Snvolve splitting it into two 60 foot building sites.
Mayor Nee asked if the City or Housing Authority would have control over the
building plans. Mr. Sobiech stated it would be the Housing Authority, but the
home would still have to meet the code and ordinances.
Mayor Nee asked if they could assure the neighbors that this vrouldn't be a
"bare minimum " home. Mr. Sobiech felt more money could go into the construction
of the home since the builder doesn't have to pay the fu17 cost of the land.
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated, presumably, those neighbors, where a new home
would be�built, are now living next to a su6standard house and the new home
would be an improvement. �
Counc9lman Schneider questioned the procedure if they had a situation of a
substandard home and the people didn't want to move.
Mr. Sobiech stated once the determination is made, he felt if is incumbent
on tAe City to proceed, hopefully without condemnation, as he felt, if they
didn't, there might�be a liabi}ity problem in that the City recognizes it
as.substandard, but doesn't praceed. .
Mr..Herrick, City Attorney, asked where the money is coming from to build the
new homes.Mr. Sobiech stated this would come from the 7ending institutions.
165
RE6ULAR MEETING OF MAY 21,1979
PAGE 5
Councilman Schneider stated the Housing Authority is then acting as "the
customer" as far as setting the price for which the home will be sold, within
Section 8 guidelines. .
Councilwoman Moses asked who determined who would be eligi6le for the homes.
Mr. Sobiech stated they would be governed by criteri� under Section 8> but
there will be advertising in Fridley.
Councilman Schneider asked if they can insure that preference is given to
Fridley families. Mr. Sobiech stated that, under�Section 8, not necessarily.
MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to direct the administration to write the
letter to HUD requesting the release of these funds to implement the large
family ownership program. Seconded by Councilwoman Moses. Upon a voice vote,
all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously. .
Mr. Brunsell, Finance�Director, stated this proposed policy would establish
a flat rate for out of town travel, one rate for with�in the State and one rate
for outside the State. The flat rate would include food, lodgin9, and incidentals,
with everyone�receiving the same amount per day. He stated the main reason
behind this is that everyone is getting the same rate and it cuts down on the
record keeping.
Mr. Brunselt stated they might have a situation where'someone was using their
travel trailer and furnishing their own facilities�and.by�having this daily
flat rate, they would know what is allowed.
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated he could see the concept, but�by not having per
diem, he felt there tvas rtrore control over accomnodations and expenses.
Councilman Schneider stated he felt limits could be established on meals
and lodging and receipts could be obtained for all other expenses.
Councilwoman Moses felt the concept of per diem may be open to misuse since
persons may claim the full amount whether or not they use it.
Mr. Brunsell pointed out the request didn't originate with the Finance Department
but came about from discussions by department heads and it was felt it would
be easier if they didn't have to keep track of incidental expenses..
Councilman Schneider felt a per diem policy is open for abuse since a trip
or conference shouldn't be a money-making proposition and on the other hand
it shoutdn't 6e a losing proposition for the employee. He felt, depending
where the conference was held, he doubted if you could find a motel or hotel
�for the rate allowed in this policy.
Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated, basically> the question arose when employees
use their own transportation and have other arrangements, other than staying in a
motel, there is no compensation set up at all. He stated there is a State
and Federal policy on the basis of per diem rates and this was researched and
is the proposal now before the Council. He stated, howev,er, if the Council
feels uncomfortable with it, they will continue with their present policy.
Councilman Barnette indicated he would feel comfortable with leaving it as
it is and letting the employees submit claims.for what they actually spend.
Mayor Nee�felt the Charter was quite explicit about itemized receipts. He �
felt undocumented claims could possibly be accepted for cab fares and tips.
MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to receive the report regarding the per diem
policy. Seconded by Councilman Schneider. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye,
M�yor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously.

�
l66
REGULAR MEETING OF MAY 21, 1979 PA6E 6
Mr. Qureshi> City Manager, stated the City requested the County to hold these
lots when they became.tax forfeit to use this land for public purpose. He
stated neighborhood meetings hatie�been held and a conceptual plan was presented
for development of these lots for park purposes. He stated staff�felt there
was a general consensus of approval of this approach.
Mr. Qureshi stated it is proposed that the North end of the park be a passive
�area with heavy activity on the South end.
Mr. Qureshi stated Council should be aware there is a request from Redeemer
Lutheran Cburch for a�portion�of this property that abuts the church property. ��
He stated, if the City does not desire to acquire the property, it would be �
put up for pu6lic sale. �
Mr. Brunsell stated Marcia Etlicher contacted him asking whether of not the �
City owns these lots and he advised her this was comi�ng before the Council
this evening. . .
Councilwoman Moses�asked how long the City was considering this area for a park.
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated it has been discussed over the last ten years
as this is the only property in this area that has nev2r had�arry park facilities
to speak of. He stated he realizes this is a senstitive area, when they have
a request from Redeemer LutheranChurch regarding use of the property for their
expansion. Ne stated the pro6lem is, of course, that the church is interested
in the property at�the South end and that�is the only area with any width to
provide any kind of athletic field and active recreation facilities.
Mr. John Anderson, 831 66th Avenue, representing Redeemer Church,
stated the church is experiencing a crowding and their parking facilities are
inadequate and felt if was.important that they have an opportunity to purchase
the property.
Mrs. Marcia Etlicher, 6870 7th Street, representing Redeemer Lutheran Church, .
stated she was never aware a park was being considered for this area. She
stated the church will need additional parking and requested consideration for the �
church to obtaYn this property.
Councilman Barnette asked if the church ever considered this property, when .
it was tax forfeit. Idrs. Etlicher stated, as far as she knows, they didn't
and she talked with Mr. Brunselt just last week and was aduised this matter would
be coming before the CounciL
Mr. Ken Belkholm, 5570 6th Street, representing Redeemer Lutheran Church,
stated there is a need for additional parking because now, with some of their
activities, they are parking in the street> He stated he can appreciate
the concern for the park itself to serve the youth in Frid7Gy, but the activtites
of the church also serve the youth. �
Councilwoman Moses�asked how many more parking spaces the churcb would have if ����
they could get the four additional lots. Mr. Sobiech stated they would have '�
roan for approximately l00 more parking stalls. I
Councilman Barnette stated�he has told those people in the area that he would ��'�.
do whatever he could to obtain a useable park in their neighborhood. !
Mayor Nee stated people have also talked to him about-the need for a park in li
this area and he agreed it was.needed and it didn't occur to him that the '
church needed extra space. ',
Councilman Barnette questioned if the only day of the week the parking lot i��.
was filled was om Sundays. The church representatives stated it is filled � I
alsoo n Wednesaay mornings for Bible study, which is conducted nine months j��
out of the year. - . ��
Councilman Barnette stated he felt very strongly that this park should go in '
and hoped something can be worked out to everyone's satisfaction. . � �
167
REGULAR MEETING OF MAY 21, 1979 PAGE 7
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated this is something that has been under consideration
for the past ten years and believes there is a great need, demand and desire.
Mr. Belkholm felt one problem they haven't looked at is when this area becomes
a park, there is the question of parking since the church's lot was used for
parking last year when there was a skating rink.in the area.
. Councilman Fitzpatrick felt they do have something contradictory here in that
the City doesn't plan to provide aRy parking, but do have the statement from
the church representatives that when this area is used people do use the
� �� church's parking lot.
Councilman Fitzpatrick felt perhaps if parkinq could 6e provided along the
westerly edge, it could serve many purposes for use by the church and also
by persons coming to the park. He felt is wouldn't hurt to provide parking for
. the park, even though it is contrary to the present plan.
Mayor Nee felt they should proceed with the resolution to acquire the property
from the County and then proceed to see if something could be worked out on
the design and parking.
Mr. Qureshi, City Manager�; stated the basic question is if the Council wants
the property and if there could be a joint use, he could see no reason why
the City shouldn't cooperate. He felt they could 7ook at the options to see �
if samething could be worked out.
MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to adopt Resolution No. 75-1979. Seconded by
Councilwoman Moses. � ' � .
Councitwoman Moses asked the meaning of "unrestricted", as it is used in this
resolution.
Mr. Sobiech stated it would mean that the City could do what they want with
the land and is not restricted for aqy particular use.
Councilwoman Moses also questioned the cost for the property. Mr. Brunsell
' stated the City would only be paying the speciaTs a9ai�nst the property and
-� wasn't sure of the figure at this time.
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated the Council did have that cost at the time they
were considering the Comprehensive Park Plan. .
UPON A VOICE VOTE TAKEN ON THE ABOVE MOTION, all voted aye, and Mayor Nee
declared the rtation carried unanimously. .

SUMMARY
(following Board of Equalization Meeting--May 14, 1979)
Three of the items were referred back to staff and have been reviewed, and.
the results entered as:
ITEM N0. 1
Hjalmer Anderson '
1491 Rice Creek Road
We have made a comparative appraisal to other homes that have been sold, and
also vievred his property. The result is as recommended:
Change the Value from:
Land Buildin Total
11,G18 24,582 36,000
To:
�i1,318 $23,482 $34,800
ITEM N0. 2
Pop Shoppe (N-Star Beverage)
785 - 53rd Avenue Northeast
We have compared this to Kennedy Transmission property which is very similar.
This property is in line as far as value is concerned, so we recommend no
reduction.
ITEM N0. 7
Ronaid McClain
6007 Main Street Nortlieast
Mr. Mulcahy and I tried constantly to call these people and we never got an
answer. Then approximately 11:00 a.m. on Friday, May 18, 1979, we went to
the property and found no one there. The house seems to be very well kept on
the outside, and it is my opinion that the structure value is correct, but I
would recommend a reduction in land on Lot 16, but an increase in land on
Lot 17.
Change the Value on Lot 16 from:
Land Building Total
4,700 - 0 - 4,700
To:
$500
Change the Value on Lot 17 from:
To: $4>688
$6,200
�
$26,112
�26,100
$500
$30,800
$32,30Q
Total for both lots changed from $35,500 to $32,800

Summary, Page 2
It should be noted that I called the State Welfare Department and spoke to
Warren Nyhus. He stated that a home valued at the above figure should create
no problem. The last adjustment did set the value at $28,500 maximum to obtain
Medical Assistance, but this maximum will change to $35,000 to $36,000 under
present law by July l, 1979. fle expects that perhaps a higher adjustment will
come through in this session of the Legislature, but there is no guarantee of
that. ,
ITEMS 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, AND 11
These items were�taken care of by Mr. Mulcahy.
ITEM N0. 6
This item was answered and resolved by Leon Madsen.
ITEMS NOS. 9 AND 12
These items were considered by the Board of Review, and motions were made for
no reduction in value.
The items that were resolved before the people appeared before the Board of
Review should.be ackncwledged so they could go to the County if they so chose
to are listed below by name of property owner and address:

ITEM N0. 1
Hjalmer and Ruby Anderson
1491 Rice Creek Road
Lot 2, Block 2, Spring l'alley Addition
Plat 59152, Parcel 860
An inspection of the property at 1491 Rice Creek Road was made on May 16, 1979,
by Mr. Herrmann and Mr. Mulcahy. The inspection revealed that the structure is
well built and in a good state of repair. The first floor has some functional
obsolescence in that there is no central hall, and the bathroom is located off
a room which is probably too small to be a bedroom. A reasonable loss of value
for this obsolescence would be $1,100.00. Also, there is a ditch easement of
25 feet across the rear of the lot. This 25 feet would make $100.00 less value
in the depth adjustment used. Considering these two items, the Assessor's
office recommends a reduction in market value of $1,200.00, as follows:
Land
From $11,418.00
To $11,318.00
Structure
$24,582.00
$23,482.00
Total
$36,000.00
$34,800.00
A market analysis approach was used to confirm the replacement cost less depre-
ciation method which was originally used.
The method of this approach is to assemble and analyze recent sales of similar
properties to the subject to obtain a reasonable estimate of value. Of course,
no two properties are exactly alike and so adjustments must be made. Dollar
adjustments are made to the sale property to make it more comparable to the
subject. If the saie property has an item that the sudject does not have, the
appraiser must subtract the value of that particular item from the sale. The
reverse of this is also true. If the sale property does not have an item or
feature that the subject does, a plus factor must be added to the sale. The end
result should be a fairly close estimate of value of the subject property.
In this appraisal, the sale properties chosen are all expansion-type older
homes of the same quality of construction but are larger than the subject. The
three sales have been transacted within a two-year period. Because of the rapid
inflationary trend in the market for the past two years, a one per cent per
month adjustment has been added to the sale price.
Sale No. 1
Located at 931 Mississippi Street. Was sold in September, 1977, for $38,157.00.
It is the same age as the subject property, but does not have a dormer or any
finishing upstairs.
Sale No. 2
Located at 6005 - 5th Street. Was sold in August, 1978, for $42,000.00. It was
built in 1928 which is twelve years older than the subject property. The dormer
is smaller, but the upstairs is finished also. This house has no porch, but does
have some basement finishing.
ITEM N0. 1 (Continued)
Sale No. 3
Located at 7181 East River Road. Was sold in March of 1978 for $37,900.00. This
property has no garage. The lot has only 50 feet of frontage. The structure was
bui1t in 1920, which is twenty years older than the subject property.

Sale No. 2 is the most similar in that it has a garage and the expansion is fin-
ished. Therefore, it is the most reliable indicator of the value of the subject
property. Based on this analysis, the estimated value by market comparison is
$42,600. By applying an 81% ratio to $42,600, the figure would be $34,500. This
would be close to the $34,800 value recommended by the Assessor's Office.

Indicated ratio of our value to sale = 84 per cent.
The Kennedy Transmission property is in a high visibility area, doing a
commercial-service type business. It's construction is very close to the same
as Pop Shoppe, with the exception of having a prestressed concrete roof
structure. It is smaller, has no retail area, but has some office area
finished. The wall height of Kennedy Transmission is 15 feet compared to
19 feet for the Pop Shoppe.
In making a comparison such as this, it can be expected that the overall value
per sq. ft. of building area will be higher on the smaller property. This is
because the smaller site will cost more per sq. ft. than a comparably located
targer site, and a smaller building will cost more to construct per sq. ft.
than a larger building of compara6le construction. Marshall Valuation would
show a 9 per cent higher rate for the difference between 15 foot high and
19 foot high buildings of this type on Pop Shoppe. However, Marshall also

�Mr So6iech stated the Plan�ing Comnission held a public hearing on the request
for the lot split and reco�ended approval.
Mr. Costello, 1623 Gardena Avermae, indicated he had no objection to the lot split,
but was concerned about the p7ateaent of the garage for a new structure, as, he
felt, if there were a garage t)ose Yo the corner, it would�decrease the value of
his property. Mr. Coste7la asked if there was a manner in which they could put
in a stipulation regarding th�s 92em. -
Mr. Herrick, City Attarney, feit the best way to handle this matter would be for
Mr. Fehn and Mr. Gostello to er+ter into a convenant that would be binding on them
and future owners, and which co�u3d be filed with the abstract, indicating certain
distances where the garage co�7d L�e constructed and positioning of the house.

and he had no objections to h9s �pians. � �

area with. approval of the iat sy'Yit. He stated, however, the impact is fairly
minimal.

Mr. Sobiech stated, with aRy new development, an $800 escrow has been required for
every new lot in the area. Na sWted this would apply to this lot, whenever someone
built on it.

time to go through what the Comnission is doing.

EROSION PROBLEMS ON THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER:
Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated this study by the Army Corps of Engineers would
be of no cost to the City, however, he wanted to make the Council aware that once
there is a study, it might require future Councils to direct their attention to the
types of improvements recommended more so than come of the�approaches taken in the
past. Mr. Quresh'i stated he felt that possibly any recommendations which the
Army.Corps of Engineers.might submit would be an expensive type of soTution.
He.stated the Corps' designs are for a 100 year storm and even though the Council
might like to do some of tiie things that would be recanmended, the cost is always
a factor. . �
Councilman Fitzpatrick felt he did not know what the implications of the study
would be, but agrees that studies quite often turn out to be facts accomplished.
Councilman Schneider felt the City runs the risk of not solving a problem, if the
Cauncil doesn't proceed.

Upon a voice vote, atl voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously.
CONSIDERATION OF FAIR SHARE CONCEPT FOR NOlV-RESIDENT'S PARTICIPATION IN RECREATION
PROGR{Vd:
Dr. Boudreau of the Parks and Recreation Department stated the fair share concept
they are proposing, for non-residents participating in recreation programs sponsored
by Fridley, is what many other municipalities have in their programs. He stated
non-residents participating in the Fridtey programs would be charged a fair share
or equal share to help cover some of the costs that the reside�ts pay,.through .
their tax money, for the facilities. He stated Fridley residents would be
given priority and any non-residents may enter the program.
In answer to a question regarding the policy in Columbia Heights, Or. Boudreau
explained that the Recreation Department in Columbia Heights receives 50% of its
money from the Schoot District and 50% fran the City> therefore, anyone
residing in School District #13 is not charged an additionat fee and anyone
outside of School District #13 is charged over and above the fair share fee. He
stated their financial pattern is entirely different from Fridley's.
Councilman Schneider stated Spring Lake Park just adopted a surcharge for
Fridley residents participating in their programs. .
Louncilman Fitzpatrick felt there are Fridley residents who live in School
District R16 who will participate in the Spring Lake Park programs and pay
the fee.
Councilman Schneider stated his concern is that he has been working to find out why
Btaine-Spring Lake Park felt compelled to impose a fee for persons that are
in the school district and want to participate with their classmates. He felt
the�children wuuld participate in Blaine's and Colum6ia Heights' programs,
not because they don't like the Fridley program, but because they want to
participate with their classmates.
. Councilman Schneider stated when talking about tbe fees for adult programs, �
� he doesn't have any prohlem. �-�
Dr. Boudreau stated they are trying to protect the residents' rights. He
� stated, most of the adult programs have a lot of non-residents pay for the �
facilities to protect the City taxpayer. He stated Fridley residents pay
for the facilities through the tax dollar and non-residents should bear some .
of the cost of the program on a fair share concept and this is the only reason for
instituting such a recommendation.
139
REGULAR MEETING Of MAY 7, i979 �ppGE 6.
Councilman�Schneider stated he had heard the reason for�the charge�in Spring
Lake Park was because Fridley didn't let them use the park facilities. He
stated he does, however, have documentation to the contrary.
Councilwoman Moses felt the fair share concept might be misconstrued and
felt this should be worked out at a different level, and�possibly a joint
. program to use the facilities without cost. She s:ated she didn't have any
. proble�s with adults paying on the fair share concept,� but with the children's
activities she #elt it was the athletic competition.that was causing the
problems.
I( � Dr. Boudreau felt, if a distinction was made between the adult and children
`-1 activities, the City could be left open for criticism on being unequal
or unfair for everyone.
Mayor Nee stated he has some difficulty with the philosophy since these are
public facilities�and the public is not described as a Fridley resident.
Dr. Boudreau felt they were discussing two different philosophies, one on
use of the facilities and the other on the programs.
Dr. Boudreau stated the Parks and Recreation Commission did concur with the
recor�mendation by an unanimous vote and staff would like to know the Council's
desire so that whatever action is taken could be included in the summer
brochures which are ready to be sent out.
Mayor Nee suggested possibly approving this concept now and then di�scussing
it with the neighboring cities.
F10TION by Gouncilman Schneider to concur with the recoimr�endation of the Parks
�and Recreation Comnission on the fair share concept for one session of the
recreation program and, in the interim, the Council review the policy and
� communicate with adjoining communities and school districts. Seconded by
�Councilman Fitzpatrick. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee
( decTared the motion carried unanimously.

North, Inc. of Fridley, Minnesota (the "COmpany") has provided the
City Council of Fridley (the "City Council") with certain i.nforma-
tion concerning a proposed �roject (the "Project") under the
t�7innesota P9unicipal Industrial Development l�ct, Minnesota Statutes,
Chapter 474, as amended {the "I�ct"). On the basis of'such inforna-
tion the City Council, by rnsolution adopted Piay 21, 1979, has
given preliminary approval to the Project and Che financing thereof
by the issuance of a revenue obligation of the City. The following
are factors considcred by the City Counci_1 in determining to give

1. The Project consi.sts generally of the
acquisition of approxir�ately 2.G acres of land and
the construction thereon of an expanded parts and
service departments and body shop for Win Stephens
Datsun North, Inc., approximately 15,000 square
feet in size.
2. F9acka1l, Crounse & P]oore, as Uond cowisel,
has given its preliminary opinion that t11e Project
constitutes a"project" withi.n the meaning of
Section 97�l.02, Subdivision la, of the Act.
z�
3. itepresentatives of the Company report
that, during the past 9 years, the Company has
experienced an upward trend oi income-' before
taxes. The City Council believes that the
upa�ard trend of income bef.ore taxes is a'denon-
stration of the economic soundness of the Coropany,
and that the Company will contribute to the sound-
ness of the local economy.
9. Representatives of the Company estimate
that, as a result of the acquisition, construction
and equipping of the Project, the Company �vill
employ approximately 20 persons in the City and
the surrounding area, in additi.on to tllose
currently enployed by the Company. The City
Council is concerned about providing er�ployment
opportunities in the City and believes that the
existence of the Project in the City orill provide
such employment.
5. RepresenL-atives of the Conpany estimate
that th� acquisition, construction and equipping
of the Project will result in an additional annual
payroll of approxinately $325,000 based on h�age
rates currently in effect, The City Council
believes that a substantial percentage oi that
additional payroll will be spent on housing,
-2-
2L
food and oL-her goods and scrvices in the City and
surrounding arcas, ihus benefiting the local
economy.
6. The City Council believes that tlie acquisi-
tion, constructi.on and eyuipping of the Project
wi21, in addition to providing employment opportu-
nities in the City, result in more intensive
develope�ent of the subject land, thereby helping
L-o provide an adequate tax base to finance the
costs of governmental services provided by the
City, the county and the school district- in which
the City is located, and result in greater utiliza-
tion of the City's existing investment in educa-
tional and public service facilities and ther.eby
contribute to the economic and human resources
needed as a base for the provision thereof.

OPEN qT 7;50 P.M.
Mr. Boardman stnted thst this was located on Highway 65� just north dP the liquor store
Last year the Lift put in a garden center. They own two buildings on thqt location.
One wac a filling stntion end one was a grocery store. They took these over and
developed one as a cross country ski area and the other as a down hill ski and those
types of thii�c. The �rocery store building� based on it's locc�tion, is over the
present lot line by 7 feet. In otl�er words� it r�as built on proper•ty it didn't own.
Phis property is presently zoned C-1 to the soutl� which 1s where the fillin� station
was and the old grocery store was� and it is zoned CR-1 to the nori;h. They would

like to rczone this to all C-2 comvexcial which would sllox them to cr�erate in
that fimct.ion. The r.r�¢cou tbey wnnt to po to G 2 is Uased on the Speciql U�e
Permit becaur�e An open flrea like the �,arden center i.s only nllowed in a G2
area. They w�ant to combine the uses i.nto A C-2 u�e and eliminai:e the CR-1 on the
norti� and the C-1 on the gouth. He noted that there had been some �treet improve-
ment on the �ervice :oad on iIighway 65. 4lith that improvement they did get some
initial boul.evard planting, co3 and a curb on the street side to improve the loolcs
of the builciing. They pu't ln r�mne n�arked parY.ing areas in front of the brick
buildin�. He referr.ed to pr�r;e 33 of the agenda and sta�:ed that t+Ir. Holmer had
given tl�em a ro r�h sketch linich they put into a landsc�pe plan Accordin� to the
planting schedule on �the other ;ide. F+1iat they would lilce to do on this, if
they do approve the xezone and i,he �`}�ecial Use Permit, is to have this landscage
plan a•ttached as part of the sti.pu.latlon and a e.chedule developed for the completion
of the landscaping and complc�tion of the enfi,ire facility. It could be a pericxl o£
two or three years but Ghc-y orcu7.d like the developer conunitted to this, i+Ir. Boardm2n
stated they were lookin� at getting the curUin�� blacl:toping and tahatever landscaping
would Ue necessary to make the property completed. Right ncna �the lot;; to the north
where the building sit is prescni;�y gravel and is prer>ently utilized i'or parl:ing.
It is not necessari]y eetablisl�ed as � parking area, but peaple park there. They
would like to get it Pirmed un.
Ms. SchnaUel asked ii' it was ihe intention o£ the petitioner to put an addition on
the �ravel area to the north?
Mr. Boar.dmsn stated they we.re lookin� at what ��:,he potential would be For an addii;ion
on to �l:c strticture so �aith:in the plan �hey did �CftY.e that into cons�dei�ation fo-r
parking renuireL�ents aud landscapino reriuirements. I� was noted oa tbe dra�rin� srhat
the msx.irewwu expansion co•ald Ue.
N�s. Schnal�el stAtec tt:at she asked that because iP th�y r7ere loeking for stipu7_ations
on the lannscape plan for er.ariple� tt�e peE,itioner might not want to complete a land-
�crzpe plan if they intend to put an addition on the buildin�.
Mr. Iloardman stated that 1;here were tiiin�s they.cotil.d do �aith the lnndscape plan tk�t
would not int.erPere with the a3dition. In tl�e areae whcre tney migl�t disrupt an
axea because of an �ddition� they would put those things nt the end of the scliedule.
He felt they shouin get st�rted on the prioz•ities on the deve.lopment of the thir�q.
Thin�s like the perimeter Peneing and the perimeter planting and things like that
could get dor.e. They could ctart �ai'th the perime�ter and work into thc 1ot.
Mr. Holmer stated that regr�rdin�,.perir�eter Penc3n�, he �'elt they should Ask the
adjacent p:operi�y oi�mers �rhat they trant. Tl�e person on ttie corner lot mi6ht prefer
the view Of Hl(�*L1:J&y GJ rather than A 6 foot fence. Iie stated he would comply with
what ic required but fllso with F�1�At the adjacent property owners would like. There
is existing £encin� behind two of the lots. As far as the CR-1 lot, the reason they
purchased that lot wus because they �aere 7 feei; into that lot. Also, thnt made that
lot a suUstandard lot for Uuilding on. He stated that presently he could not afford
to do qr�ything with the CR-1 lot which is the lot to the nortl�. One year from now
he could, but not this particulr�r sura*:�ex. The reason for the rezonii� request was
to lega}.l.y oper4te the t;aiden center. As far as the expansion, it is a liti;].e pre-
mature. Ife would lilce Lo expand the crpss country shop first and i:hen expand the
r��:,,
nrzture sYiop. IIowever, that mi�5ht not eome tl�rou�h. Ife mi�ht tear dactn the old
�,ao si;r�i;ion and er.pazd thc other F;hop. fte had not really aettled on anything. Tt
depended on a Iot oP L-hings lil:e proi'its end hoW the bueineas �roes. Right now� his
m,�jor concern ti�ac to legc�lly operate the �urden ceni;er. While tb.ts application v�as
in, it wa� eaciest to get it all us one inteE;r ted lot at this ti�e. Aa far us tl�e
laz�dccaping� he want� it to look aE nice Ae possiUie, but Yelt it would not Ue wise
to atart plantin� in one arcA at thi� poi.nt in time.
3�
1�Ix'. Board�r�n stated that he would liY.e r� commitment to a plan c�nd mo3iPication oP
that plan could taYe place. F3ut he would �.ike uL least a conuni.tment to a landscpping
plan.
tRr. P,ichard Patterson, 6328 Dellwood Drive, stated i;hat he lived behind the Lift.
He asked if the C-2 was for a two story buildiu�?
Mr. Boardman etated the� C-1 zaould a11rna a three story Uuildin�. G2 could allow
a six story buildir�g. He r�tated that the limitations they looYed at here wer.e the
tunouat of p�rlcivg space., �vailable. Even a tl�ree story building would be d3fficult
to put on the site because it would re�uire additional parl;ing. If ihe r.00m is not
available� the additional parkin� reqtiirernents rroiil.d k9.11 the project. }3ut that r�lso
would depend on the size of the structure. I£ they tore both buildings docm and
built a three story office building th�re, that could happen. He stated that he did
npt see it going to a six story building Uecause the parkir.� �;as not available.
T`u'. Patterson stated thaL he felt going to a C-2 would. devalua'te the properties be-
hind the Zots. Iie asked what t�as wrono with the C-1, the fray it �caas pr.esently zoned?
I✓a'. Boar.dman stated that a gar3en center is not allowed i.n a C-1. The only zoning
it would be allo�-en i.n is a C-2 Diatricb.with a Special Use Permit. So they need
the C-?_ zone to uperate t2�e ��iden center. They can operate the Lii't �n3 the cross
country ski shop in a C-1 zone.
Nu'. Patte-rson stated thai; he kiad nethir,� against the present operation� Uut Uhat if
Mr. Holener sold the property?
Nh'. }3oard�ran stated 'thai; if anyone wanted to build there, they wo,1d Ue looking ai;
a maximum of three stories because of �the size of the �ite..
b5r. Patterson asked if they couldn't put in a stipulation that would prevent A�yf:hing
larger goi»g in i;t�ere7
Mr. Harris stated that they could put in some stipulai:ions and as long as he signs
it would be binding etren if he sold.
Ms. Schnabel stated thAt no matter 4rho the owner wa�, they would be hard pressed to
put nr�ytl�ing bigger than a three story building because our code limits are so strict
they would not meet the co3e reguiremeuts.
PLflNNING COf�iiT.^,STON I�TiIJ]G� IMY �, 1�7� - PAGF 6
Mr. Ilorm ,;liurlheis, �+E15 Second St. N.E., r�tated that he owned i;he npartment
building just north of i;he cite. He aslced if fencin�, Saas required7
bir. Aoardman stuted that i'encin� was required and it must be solid screen fencing
between comznerc:ial property and residential property. Generally they require a
woal acr.eenin6 Fence.
A4r. Oquist asked I�'s. Holmer iP he planned to put in the �arden center lilce he hc;d
it last yearY
tds. Iiughes staLed it was there no4�.
t�ir. Boardman si:ated that M:•. Iiolmer. 1�¢d sent a letter to the City Council aud
Coune5.1 all rn;ed ther� to coni;inue the operqtion of the center until this process
went through.
Ms. Eiughes asked b1r. Holmer if �he ownership of the property had been resolved?
Mr. Holmer staied it had been resolved. I?e state3 he represexited D4r. Peterscn and
several other people. Iie ha.d sold the property to them �nd they are in turn bacicing
his bank loans.
i+:s. Iiughes asked if there was essentially one owner?
Mr. f3olmer stated tk�ere was a partnership called 6319 Company.
Council�an Schneider asked ii' C-2 4rould allo;a for ary semi-industrial businessec
or Ualy shops or gas stations� etc?
Mr. Boardman stated they were allo:aed only �rith a S;�ecial Use Permit and it would
have to �o tYuou�h i:be Planning Cor�mission and City Council i'or approval. Also� the
nei�hbors would be notified.
��
h1s. 5chnabel stated that it seerned to her that the property in question, and -the owner
had demonstrated� a veiy soli.d intent on improving the property and lias in i'act
substantially impz•oved them over the periai of time he has been invoZved with the
specii'ic business operation in there. The exteriors o£ the two buildings blend to-
gether aud tlie si�us have Ueen i;asteful�y done. She did not see any proUlem with
7rezoning i;he whole pnrcel qnd felt it zaould probc�bly be to the advantage oS the pro-
perty to hAVe consistent zones. It would be iu keeping with'what the City intends
to do with property and tbat is to l�ave it all �aithin one specific zouing so that
tl�e property Uecomes m,�naaeaUle. The consequences if we denied tl�is zoning would
be that we would have a parcel of land wi•th two separAte zoniu; and the owner m�y
want tp exp�nd r�t sone point or sell at some poini; and it may become a l�ardship on
him to sell because of the sepnrate zoning. From that stand point� it mrzkes sense
to clean it up and zone it all the same.
Mr. Harris Asked what the total square footage wa� on this property?
Mr. IIoardtnAU stated it was about 40�500 square feet.

Mr. IL•arria stated i;hat wnr ulmor,t douLle what they required for a C-2 buildin�.
He �sked wh;�t ttie lot covera�3e percent.�¢e was in C-2?
Mr. Iioard�an stai:ed he wasn't eure, Uut tho�ht it was 40� Por one story� 30� for
two 3toriesJ etc. Ao 1t goes up, i;he lot covera�e decreases.
t3r. Harris stnted that if they went to three stories, it would be 30�. So the
maximwn size building they could �et on there ti�ould be 16�000 square feet.
Mr• Boardtnrin stated that he doutted they could even �ret that much becau�e 16�000
square foot of office space would require about 80 p�rking spaces. There is no
way they could �et 84 pArking epaces.
Mr. IIolnker stated that the lot that is presently zoned G`R-1 i� c� subctandard lot
thereiore it could not be sold off. The onl,y lo�ical spot for that lot is to be
part of the who].e pareel.
Mr. Harris stated that on page 29 he saw a figure of 27,000 equare feet for acrea�e.
He asked if that included 1;lie otl�er lot7
Mr. Bogrdman �tated that on the zoning he hed 40,500 square feet. He stated that
this was on the �pecial Use Fermit. Tt�e Special Use Permit wotil,d only be granted
to 1o'ts 9 and 10.
Mr. Harris asked b'Ir, Holmer if it �.ou1d be agreeable if they recouanended the rezoning
thac thcre Ue seme sort of a developed plan iniL-iated as far as the screenir�{ alvn�
the property lines abuttin�r the residenti.r�I areas7
Mz'. Holmer ststed that as fur as screeninff gves by �;he apartment, there zs some
nai;ural screening there presently froizi sorne trees, Iie could nat see tearing out
�hose �trees. Also, there was some screening, naS�be lower than ca3e renuired9 be-
hind lots 9 and 10. There is fencing there.
b7r. Iiarris stated that in the near. future i;hey should have � znaster development
plan 4mitten.
I✓m. I:olmer stated that at thi� point in time he did not have a�y use for I,ot 11.
If tl�ey need a fence on the north side, that could be done. But as far as a�}•
additional landscaping on that lot, he was not plannins on any.
2dr. Harris stnted that his personal feelint; was that they needed a fence alon� the
lot line on Lot 11. Also, they should set a tar�ret date i'or the completion of the
rest of the development.
Mr. Boardman ,tated that he felt that e three year cotsnitment �aould be realistic.
btr. Aolmer ctated ttjat should be realistic because by that time he should have his
building plans implemented. He was one year aw�y from some qddition at this point
in time.

Mr. Uoardr�n ctated that they did not require 5chool Dis'�rict approval,or County ,;�._.
approval. They only approval necessary is approval by the III2A,"and t1�e City Cotmcil.
They would pass a resolution and that resolatiou must be passed Uy our City Council and
at t11at point in time the tax increment district taould be set. What they would then
rieed is something from the CounEy'Auditor to certify thuse values. They don't need !
approval from the Comlty Auditor, just the cer.tiEying of tt�e va].ues. Shciat tl�at
means is they give the Cowity Auditor a list of the area W1tll the assessed veclustion

Mr. Oquist stnted that they were not freezin�r anythin� Lhen:
Mr. Doyecher stAted they were not freezing anythin�, for the taxp�yer. Ju3t in the
matter of how the money is di�tributed Srom the County. The County collects all
taxea and the County distriUutes tar.es based on the City bud�et, the School Dictrict
budget and the Courrty bud�et and the other .,pecial taxin� di.^,tr.ict's budget. Tliey
disi;ribute only to t.hat frozen level based on 1978 values. The diff.erence between
the i978 value oP �s1.00,000 and the 1979 va].ue oi' ?�110�000� that �;10�000 �*ill be
distributed to the I{l� to accomplish �he goals and objectives of the Center City
Redevelopment Project. They are �lso �zskin� that the I� si�n contractual a�reements
��ii;h the City of Fridley so that the Ci�ty of Fridley is tlie i'inancial aPent and
responsible for the administration. The reason they fee]. that wtzy is because the
lII?A stafY is the same as the City stafr and the City ha� tk:e financial where with all
mechanisms presently at it'e dispos�2 �o handle this type of accounting for
type of decisions. The FIRA c�i.11 always p1a,y it' � role in decidin� on x•edevelonment
objectives, �oal policiec,,evaluatin� private developer� proposa).s� amendin� the
plan if nece�sary and all of those activities. All financial obli�ation, including
the actvai determinati.ons of acquisition of property, the. sellin� of general obli.ga-
tion bonds and the like, will rest with the City Council.
Mr. Oquist asked if ihe hRA trotil.d then r.eco;nmend the disburserr�ent of funds but
Council still rnakes the final decisions?
Mr. Doyscher stated in t�rms of the arrangement in the Caty oP Fridley� t,he City
Counci2 ;aill be prime factor in the decision saking.
D1s. Hughes stated •chey would not be legally estaUlisl�ed.
Mr. Doyscher stnted t]�at 1e�tzlly they would be because they are signing
a contractual arrangement between the I�2A aad the City. �
Mr. Boardman stated that what that does is put the City Council in the situation
�.+here there is a Housing Authority bu{; it is contracting with the City Council
to carry out the FIousing Authorities i'unetions.
Mr. Doyscher stated that additiorally t2�ere zaere 3�finnesota Statues re�ulating the
issvanee of general obli�ation Uoads� and it al�rays rests with the City Council;
no mai�ter what City you are talking aboui., to issue ar�y Uonded indebtedness
against it's residents and it�s property. Wl�en they talk about risk on this project�
the real risk is the i'inanci�L ri.^,1: an3 that rislc is evile;rt in the i�suance of
bonds and repaying tl�e bonds. That will Aluays rest with the City Council re�ardless
of what they say in this docur.ient or regardle�s of what kind of contractual arronge-
ment provided in Minnesota.law. City Councils are ihe only ones i;hat issue �enerr�l
Obligation bo»ds.
tds. Hughes stated that she vas surprised that the iII2p could ci�n away it�s respon-
sibilities. She stated slie didn�t undere,tand that but it Saa�n't i�uportant right

Idr. Doy ,cher si;ated he fe].t it was important to wzdexatrznd wYaat the role of
everyUody i.c co we don't �et those confused. 7'AY. ineremeni; le�ri�lation uppears
in two dif'fcrent ureas oY t✓dnneeotn Law. One ic the IfftA nnd one under A sPecial
piece of leQislation cailcd t�r, incre�,ent Sinr�ncing laws. There are q whole host
of rear,ons why we chooee to operate in Fri.dlc,y under the lIou,�in�r � Redevelopment
Authorlty. Primarily, the tar, increment law as a seperate piece of legislation,
linits project areas to six acres� no more than sir. scres, no more thAn one percent
of the City's assessed va].uation� no more than three percent of' the City'� planned
area. I1; has cpecial requirements and does not need a I�tA at all. It only needs
a City Council i;o do that kir.d of legisl.ation. Tkie HI2A law on 1;he other hand also
allows •the establi�lurent of a redevelopment district financed Uy tax increment
throu�h the sale of �eneral obli�ation bonds or throu�h the sale of revenue bonds.
It is legal to sell revenue bo^ds but historically no one has agreed to se11 them.
It allows lar�er ar.eas. It allotirs more fler.ibility'in tne redevelopment process.
Those �iere the trro key areas to e,tablish this district. The cix acre thin�x would
almost ma):e us get irrto the same di£iictil,ties that� in his opinion, the Center City
has been in anyway which is s�r,all lar.d parcelin�; in one of the prime co:amercial
areas of the City. Mr. Doyscher stt�ted that tar, incre�;ent is allowed under those
��two areas. The Uasic purpose of tax increment financinp is to redevelop. It was
origir�ally designed for trro purposes. To cause a redevelopment for housin� and
safe� sanitary and healthfu.l. corditions for Icna and moderate iricome families, ar.d
also to redevelop areas i;hat are deter5.orated or Ul.ighte3. Some of the �aorda�e
includes faulty planning, small land parcels� safety hazards and the like. Tax
increm^nt financing iU t1��ii under Lhe Re3eveioprieait Auihority a iinancin� vehicle.
It does not reauire a statement at the front end tha't eacri piece of property will
be developed in a very specific rnanner. But i.t allows us a finar.cin; tooL in tl�e
manner he descriUed previously, housin� re-evalt;.ations where tae �et the gain�. A
very specific exa�rrple hexe is the Village Grecn rzrea. It c;il7. �;enera�e substantial
cash flows to the City and Housin� Authcrity in tiie very r.ear Suciue. Idex1; year in
fact. It will give the City the #'inancial fea�ibility and �ahere with all to malce
decisions on other property ecquisi�i,_ons or street trafSic inprovements or utility
improvements and things oi that nature in this whole area.
Mr. Oquist asked how Village Green would gi��e us that noney?
I+Ir. Doyscher stated that was because rre are Sreezing those values at the last
certified date. The last certified date is 197b values. The reason 1979 values�
althotzgh they are preliminarily calculated� are not certifiable values Uecause
all tax equalization heaxin3s have not Ueen held and adjustu�ents L-�ade, time Sj]II115
are still in effect for people to ask that adjustments be mude on their asses,ed
values for 1979, etc. So tha�t is not certii'iable value and woiil.d not be a certi£iable
Yalue until Oc�tober at the earliest. You alr�ays pay tnxes on last year's values.
What do we have then for i978 values? In 1978 Village Gseen was vacAnt property.
On January .l� 1979 that projec't was probably 4a�N camplete. On January 1� 19f30 it
will Ue 100� complete. There is a suUstantial dif.ference between i;hat frozen vAlue
of vacant property in 1978 nnd the fully developed property in i979•
Mr. Oquist stated that then it would be taxed accordingly and we get the difference
which would be the capture.

PLANNTNC COMMISSION ►R;7;TT17f; 1�UlY 9, 1979 PACE lg j�
Mr. Doyscher ai;r�ted that wArs correct. IIe el;oted th�t basically they thou�;ht the
following wr�o accurate: Aa vacsnt property he throiu;ht lt hud An assessed volue
oP around :};15,000, On Jununry 1� 1979, or the aeoesoed v�luec in front of the
tax equr�lization Uoax•d now� l�ac an assessed value of aroiuid $2,000,000. In 1980
it wi11 have an ao�essed valued of arau�d �>4�000,000. It ie also A project oY
a specittl nature in thnt it is financed by the I�Iinnesota ITousin� Finnnce Agency
and the Department oP HouEing and UrUan Devel.opment, and referred to as u Section
8 Project. In a �ection (3 Project, half of the v�lue is for�iven for tax compu-
tption purposes. So a project liY,e th„t� instead of un assessed vAlue at basically
�+0�' of marl:et va].ue� thi:, proiect i� 20p of the marY.et value. So our assessed
values are some�ahat less than� when he says �4�000�000 that'e a rearket value, and
the a�sessed value is arow�d :;1,000,000, .. So minuo the $'15,000 r�e would
have a cr�pture of $985,000. This 4�i11. �enerate suUstantial monies. I.'e thou;ht
they ��ere in the nei�hbort,00d of $'�5,000 to $120,000 annually for the Fridley HRA.
Councilman Schneider asked if that money, the '�'75�000� would �o strfctl.y to this
tax increment district? I't does not �;et mir.ed in with ihe general fund or be used
for other thin�s.
Mr. Doyscher stated that was correct. The money wauld �o directly into a special
account Por. the Center City nroject and it rrould Ue accounted for under special
funds and the City wi11 report to the County and to the School District annually
the status of that account.
bm. Harris asl:ed ii', as far a� i;his accoant goes� could that money be invested or
is it like t�n escrow �ccount?
A4r. Doyscher stated +he mo.�ey co��:ld be investe3.
Air. Boardman stat�@ that if 1'or scme reason t,hat distr5.ct is not operaUle or some-
thing Iike that, tl�e'money earned on the investment must Ue returned to the County
and the School llistrict.
Mr. Oquist ar>4ed what the School District would do witH the money if it were re�turned?
Mr. Doyscher stated that Yf it were returned to the CoLmty they would have a great
deal oi' latitude �s far as �ahat they could do with it. S:ut the School District
would be rest.ricted under� he assurr,ed, the present restrictions of property -taxes
which c�ould generally mean it could not be used for opera'tion, saiaries or admin-
istration� Uut generally for retirement o£ capitAl deUt and land or building im-
provements.
Mr. L�oardman stated it could r�7,EO go for those things not covered by Si;ate revenues.
I�7r. Do3rscher atated that Anolca County and School District 11F did not have any reason
tp get escited for the follo�aing r•easons: I'irst� they contiuue to receive the tqxes
on the valuation at ti�e 1g7E3 values. So in essence they Are not losing ar�ythin�.
IiistoricA.11y, thic areo has not, in the pqst ten years� made any substc�ntial im-
provements. So historicql�y the County and School have not seen any grent valuations
anyway. Ar�y redevelopment 1;hat occurs at tl�e end of this increment peri al will be
captured by the City, County Qud School District. Up until tha1; point there hasn�t

hiator.ically been Any chan�e� so thnt nnythin� tl�nt over the lon� run wi11 improve
thirs ctr.ea and cause v�luati.ons to inr_rense und iY:crefore tax r.evenuee nre u
po3ltive influence. Thc S�hool. Mstri.ct cepecie�lly is not haru:ed because of the
con�tr�inte. of i;he :'c:�te l.as�. He thauL;ht the County l�ad concerns and investnents
in D1is�issi.ppi �nd Univcrsity Avernae with the State I{ibhway Depnrtment improvements
there und the County also has �enernl lr�nd use considerations they Are planning
so tliey would lilce i:o ece inproverr.ent.s. ideither of them are in effect locin¢
revenue from orhat their pre�ent history hac been. Over all� to Anoka County� this
is a minute amount of i'rozen valuations. The reason Hennepin County h�s concern
is because the City of i7inneapoli., has soJ_d tonds and t:u�de investments and the
redevel.opisent has not occured. Also the City has nequired property and cleared it
and redevel.opment ha� nct oceu.rred. 7'hat's �•rhere you �et ne�ative i'lows which
r�quires Aennepin Co�znty to worY. out with the City o£ Ninneapolis how they are
going tu pay. And Idinneapolis haE a problem because they are not making enou,h
money to pay off their �eneral cbligc�'bion bonds so they are startin� to have to
look at their own �enex�al revenues to pay the bond holders. Tl:is hanpened because
1*finneapol9.c took risks in 1:erc�s of buyi?� land, clearing it aiid makin� it available
for develop.uent or redevelopment and Chose -thin�s didn't occus in a timely fashion.
The consternation bet��een Henu�nin Coi;nt,y and l�inneapoiis h.as been becauee of the
money i'laa� not the conccpt. That is par.t of the reason for the changes in t'�e
law. `I'he chai,;es in the la�� gi��e the Councy more authnrity in determinin� which
vaZues are frozon and for hoca lonp, t2iey are .frozen and �ahich ones you should can'ture
and which one� you car.not capture. I� severely limits collecting rever.ues frcm
areas sahere ycu really didn't cause a:iy�hing to h��,ppen. It hanPened because their
own pri��ate tn�rket place� tirere respondins to the �upply and de�.an3 and the City
really didn''t cause a:�y�thing to happen therefore �the County is not going �to a.'_low
them tc cr.pture. The County �rill also set requi.rements in tern:s oi when thin�,s
have to be Uonded for� s:id �aLen t.iiey have �o be rep�yed. So t�here are so;;� cY,anges
in the law in that re; ard. He sta�ed �that he h��d been on le�islati.ve advi�ory
coirmittee� for 'tas incr2ment financing. TtaeSr 1�ave been before the S�ate L�gislature
for t�t least four years that he is a«are of on changing and tLey have yet to change.
There are lotc of reasons they haven't changed. They met with Lea�ue of biinnecota
Municipalities or Lea�ue of 1linneso'ta Cities and it is that or�anization tl�a't has
been pr;.narily responsible for carryin� the compromises between the covnties and
cities and advising t:.^ State Legislai;ure. In fact in this le�islative ces�ion
they are doing ihe same thin�. He z:ent over this project with 'the League staff
for i;wo reusons: Firs't, how would it fa11 into any new laws or changes that they
see and two, is this the type of project that tiie S'tate sees as a reasonable pro-
ject as opposed to some oS t'he people who recently critized Bloo*uington i'or L'heir
tax i.ncrement project. Tk:e Lea(;ue of i�finnesota Cities s�ys that this is a pxoject
of the na'ture and type t,hat the State Legislature concurs �aith and the League
concurs with and that it is a v:i.alile project.
Mr. Doyscher ctAted that the role of the Pl�nning Commission was to advise the
I�iA that the proposecl land uses are in conformance with overall City goals and
lAnd use policies. That is what we are aslcin� for,
�

Councilmau Schneider r>tated that ten years our property taxing structure will
be different f'rom whn't it is today Af�1;C1' A 1'ew year� of legislative ct�an�es
4nd kie a�Y.ed l�orr thtxt would effect v�lue of the capture?.
t�Ir. Doyscher stuted he would give him a neF;utive. In California tc�x Proposition 13.
What Propo�ition 13 And the heighth thai; it got in other state legislatures con-
sidering other stAtes adopt that le�3islatiion. Zn essence what Propoaition 13 was
to ro11 back property vAlues. Tne Citice �xnd Coun�;ies oP Calii'ornia did not
inerca�e mill le�ys bu{; they had vexy 1'ast increasing values so they had biQ
value adjuctments on tho�e same �ills. In I•finnesota i:hat is a little different.
But if such a state legi,slative action �rere •tal:en where property values were rolled
back or how you jud�e properi;y values were to subs'tantially reduce, you would start
to generate negative Slows. IYo question that this is a concern. At the time the
California legislution rras bein� h;,�ed areund the news media� ther.e was e concerted
ei'£ort at tl�t time to form a Local Urban AfPairs Committee in the Sen�te and Iiouse.
47hat would happen to tax incre*��nt projects? If they were going to r.iake a roll back
in va).ues in response to tar. �tructure,^,, these districts may be considered as
"�pecial districts or frozen. That is a possiUility. It was his Seeling t:�at ri�ht
now there were a good uwnber of district� for worthy public purposes and they have
some merit. L'ut he couldn't guess, nor would he intend to, gu.ess what {;he State
Legislature might do. They could r.�ke adjustments so this is somet.hing tl�ey have
to be carePul of. You can still make mista.l;es. The other thi.ng yoiz i�ave to be
careSul o£ is plu�ging i.n inflation numbers. So�ne tax incremen't districts are
created strictly en inilati_on. Inflatien is an up aid dc�nt thing and m.aybe pro-
pert;/ won't inflate so to base it on that kind of jud�ement you could mal:e an
error. 'I'hc S�ate Le�isla�:�res real7,y control the retho3olo�r c?�.at we us�.
Counei7.mnc�n Sehneider aslced if it Fras fair then to say tl�at ar�,T ehan�e the,y 4ruuld
make in the metho3 of calcula{�ii_g v�lues or taxes could eifect ii;? What ii they
don't cl�.an�e the mechanism for calculatiu� values but cl�ange the fox�ala for cal�
culatin� iaxes.
Mr. Doyscher stated that aZmost all of this was Uased on value, propert,y values.
So he would see that as bein; the critical factor. As far as the method pf
collectin� taxes, you can sc�y all that you iaant about it� but it really i� based
on what values you set and theu yoii just put numbers to it. If you are going io
allow or say City Councils will no longer collect propert�� taxes at a11 and we
4�i11 distribute on s Si;ate aid Sorm•,zla.
Councilman Schneider stated that brou�ht to mind the McHutchin's Bill.
Mr. Harris Asked P4r. Doyscher if he saw that I:ind of a move on in the Legislr�ture?
Nfr. Doyscher stated that things have shifted. If you were to ask him a year ago,
with more Democral:s in �he Iiouse� there was a stron�, force to say that property
taxes are sn unfair taxation method and that iuccune tax is a more fair taxatior;
method. The les„ you depen3 on property tux and the more you collect on income
and distriUute bacic to your political subdivi�ions� the more fair you are being.
BU't 'I:I]!3'E �Z11:.OSOpI�y C11CII]�'t $0 qi�}�rrhere even with the splits tl�a'� were in session

Ms. Iiughes esked why they had the tr�i.l on the d:istrici:. She reFerr.ed to the

D4s. Schnabel stated that in re�ar3s to financin�� �ahat if there is a recession?
This i: a real possibility in the mind, oP sore econo�i.sts and khai; if we a.re into
tl�is. Wha't would happen to the City's obli�a'Lior.s?
PRr. Doyscher stated that once the City �vakes financial obligations it is financielly
obligated. When people bi�y Uonds� ti�e,y expect to be repayed. Cities don't lil.e
to go into default. Once the City msl:es a decision to go into financial indebtedness
it has the legal oUli�ation to foll.ow throu�h. If it is in that cituation of i'ir,auciz�l
indebtedness and a recessio,i happens �to such ar. extent tht�t all property values are
dropped substantiall,y, it ti�ould be very difficult.
Ms. Schnabe2 stated thst then if the City rrere to proceed with this and do i{; in
vArious pk�ses �.hat wou'ld Ue better.
Mr, Dpyscher stuted it WOLIZU' 117711'I'i 1t� S£inancial obligation to that piiase. tia
referred to pa�e 9 of the document with the Table of Contents on the front. IIe
quoted the following from the second psragrapb: "EACh phase of redevelopment
shall require financial findiii�s of feasibility� separAte contractual s�reements
between the Cii:y and n developer, City npproval of land use, zoning and cuch other
requirementc that may be estaUlished, �ud complience with the �oals And oUjectives
of this plan." Whut 1;hey Are sc�yin� l�ere i.s that Lhe City is not going to ei�i;er

into that phase of redevelopment until there is a eontractual ugreement with
a deve.loper.. Tn the eecond hulf of thc�t ctai:ement ic where Fre get into bonded
indebiediies�. I'hrace 1, o�e decide i:o acouise and clet�r land. Lle only do that
witl� a coni;rc�ctual agreement wi.th u devcloper that he will devclop it. That
cuntructual a�reemeni; is spoken about in the I,and and 12ea1 Property l�cqui�ition
Pl�tn and the L2nd Dinposition for Redevelopmr_n� llepArtment in the P1An� which
states that they cannot do it i'or specu7.atiun and they must meet certain require-
ments.
Ms. Hughes stated that M,. Schnabel's question really gets down to if comething
drastic happened aPter the contract c�as signed and i;he land was eleared, if they
went bankrupt or there wac a recession or somethin� like that� that would be the
real problem.
Mr. Doyscher stated that there was no question that cities Yiave the opportunity
to make mi�talces. �Jl.at they try to do ic make decisions in a rea.sonaUle manner
and malce Pindin�� of f.'easiUi3ii:y and i;�ice jud�ements, b1isi;akes are tnade. We
hope that r:e ha�re enou�;h pr.otection in this docuuent and that City Council actc
in a most reasonable m�nner in tne Puture so tho�e r�re eliminated the best they
can.
P�;s. Aughes asked if he had any more r.e�atives?
Mr, Doyscher stated tha.t one of ihe goals oP this plan is to create density in
+,his area, to cause redevelon�ent of s�ructures ai�d neople using tUose structures.
The ar�t�ent of sane of those pecple i, tn4t thex�e are alre;dy �traf°ic rlow pro-
blems and i;raffic hazard problc��s ar.d safety prebleL:s to pi^operty an3 7.ife. I,y
increasing floers �ae may in fact be incre�sing those kinds of nrobl_ems� unless ore -
are very careful about tryin� to improve intern�l movemcn•ts o: prop�rl;y whic_: are
now ex:itinG and Ieft hand turn mcvements especialI,}� at t.he intercections. That is
an issiie all of u� must be aware o£.
tdr. Boardman stated he would lil:e to add that if any developer F�ent in there now,
even in the light of the deve].ope:�ientthat is existing we would sti11 have an increace
in trai'fic flotas. There axe isst�es involved in this that r�e cannot do aqythin�
about and that ic the traffic flo�r that moves throu�h this area. It creates a
problem And ii notl�inU is completed or nothir� is done then the traffic patte:ns
on i;he property like i�olly Center, then even minor developrnent may cause the same
types of proUlems that we l�ave �aith myjor development with �a3ifications.
h�', Oquist asked if the City could terminate this plan at ar�y time.
Mr. Doyscher stated it could uuless it has legal And financial obligations.
Mr. Oquist stated that barrin� thqt, if we cannot find developers who want to co�e
in here for vArious x•easons, asswning we have no otl�er obligations we can termir,ate
the tax increr.�eut districtT
Mr. Doy�cher stated i;hey could do one other thing �ahich would probably be considered
at thAt �oint. They could r.iake a decision not to collecl; ti�e revenues and to
readjtist the frozen bnse uutil you were more sure uUout development and to turn
thAt money back with interest and �],low them to start callecting whatever increases
there are.

another majox pqrt of Lhe district7 I1;s ri�ht ner.t to Holly Center.
Nir• Doyscher etated he did not think there r��s any overnll by-process there.
Ms. Fiu�hes asked ii' it was because that proper.ty ocrner would be opposed?
��'. Doyscher stated that if they ].00Y, historically ss i;o how the City hss viewed
this area the way they t�d defined it was alxttys the Area.
Ms. Schn3bel asY.ed c�hat he sati� as the goals oF a Center City Project being.done
in Fridley? What do you hope to ucco�li.sPi out of i•tp She stated that she
'was having problems becatiee repeal:l�• throughout the doc�ent it s�yys it is primarily
a neighborhoo3 ce�ter.
t+�x. Doyscher stated that she was reading the Phase I document and in,the other
docu:nent tre li�ve gowls and cUjectives.
Ms. Schnabel sta'ted there tvere two ways she could say this. If you waut to speak
speciPica2ly to your go;�ls �na objectives she taazid hati�e seme co.;*ncn�ts about tliat.
She felt they T-;ere in the z;*ron�; order �,:,d sLe •apuld nnzke some chanbes on i;hat, 7'n
a long ter;;, goal ard objective for the Center City Project for the wholc project�
basically chPy said ii; was a nieghUcrhoa9 center r�nd t1�is is repeated time and a�ain
that it is a neighi�orhocd conveniencc service center.
t•4r. &oardman stated that was as it is existinII.
Ms. Schnabel stated alco as it will be in ti:e future. She has read itt here that
it i.s not likely to cY,an�e. Th�t it will always be a neighbor.hood convenience
service center. F[ex question is if thst is true are there oi;her goale she is
missing that they think will be r�ccomplished as a result of this project?
Mr. Doyscher stated he believed that the area was � neighborl�ood convenience service
center. The reason ti�ey say that is Uecause zahen i;hey Pirct etarte3 workin� on
this it became apparent that it was � service center. Some people refer to it �s
a retail center but it is c� p�rsonal service are� not a rctail area. Ai; one point
it wss a retail area. I1y personal �ervicea he mean^, dry cleaning, laundry, barUars,
etc. as opposed to a grocery storc. Holly Center is A retail center. A400n Plaza
is a service center. It w�s in�oi•tIInt in the inventox�y to let everybody lmow that
we believe it is a service center. Un7,ess soMething h�ppens it will continue to
be thqt aud it will decrease in its importance. The reason for tl�at is Uecause
it now drAws from not only this nei�hborhood but from some nei�hUorhoals on the
ne[tr north, Coon Rapids and those areas �al�ere there are rnore development� occurring.
Ms, Schnubel stated thr�t was to a diminishin� degree.

Mx', lloyscher agreed nnd stated it would become ler>c impartant. �ven though
it has more traffic� that traffic is on ite wr�y out. Z'lie goal then ic not to
make A region:�1 crnter. He di.d not believe 1t could conrpe�e riith u re�:ConaL
eenter such as llrookdale or I7orthtown. Tt does }�ve 1;he posci.Uilit,y oP Ue-
comin� q comnunity center but it will. only do thut iP there are planned pr�rcels
lar�e enough for pec�le to develop, They don't hAVe thai: size parceZ avr�ilable
right now. Fie believes its nature is to b� Q neighLorhoa3 convenS.ence ceni;er
and the wdy to lceep its viaUility tip and to improve it is to Uring more people
ini;o the imrncdiate proximity oS' the neighhorhoal and we c�n,do ttiat :in several
manners. We could Uring in office developments. Office developments wi11 have
people there at least from II:00 to 6;00 and those people may choose to walk to
restaur�ni;s, drug etores� etc. It wou7.d be an i7r,provement of t1�e �ood deal of
vacant land tl.ey presently have. Py brin�i.ng in addit.ional housin� like Village
Green. In that regar3 they trouJ_d be i;alking abuut sou,e ,pecialized hou�in�; foi
elderly� disaUled or handicapped. Ii; would he e very su_table local:ion for tha't
sort of t2�in� because of its nearness to and adjacent to residential areas and
yet rrithin close pror,.-ir.r�ty to conveniei.ce arc-as. What rr.ight Ue feasible is to
a'll.cw office devclop„ent in two parcels and a hou�inU deve7.opraent in another
parcel and to c�use enouf;h ped.estrian trai'f5.c flow �nd .^,ite improt-ements, ide msy
be able to rehabilitate and enclose ticon P1aza ;o i{; becomes a r,:ore viable certer
than it is no�r, Yle coald also r.�zke sor;e improvenents in the .Iolly Center. Those
would conti.nue to be neighborY�oa3 convenience ceuters but they �.,*oul.d a grea'ter
dr�wing population buse and they would have an overall irnproved Rrea to draer on
and they would have a more �uitably developed ar.ea rather t1�an t�acancy and the tm_
lcem.�t kind of there is ri�ht noia, It trould plso l;eep so:��e stren�th in the existing
centers.of some size. Sorne o?' tl;ose need structu'ral improvements.
Ms. SchnaUcl stated thai then basic;;11;- what he is sa,yi�iv t;as ;,t�ay �•,�re ho7�:iag ,;r;ag
-thro�h the Center City Yroject thcy would bring more peoule into a closer prohimi'cy
to the exisl;in� cor,er.ercia7. estaUlish.ninnts.
Mr. Doyscher added it s��ould also improve the general conditions and better. utilize
the land resources,
Ms. Schnabel stated that another problem she had was that it c�ould not necessarily
attract more people to the area from those areas thAt ax•e now climi�iishing or Ilot
being attxacted.
hu': Doy�cher agreed unless t.iey got some spec9.alized restaurants or samei;hing that
responds durin�, tl�e day to ofiices qnd Are �ttractive enoagh.
Mr. Boardman stc�ted that anotl�er thing we have �to look at is the traffic Plow
proUlem. We have some problems ri�ht now because some people who are really in
elose proximity to the area do not use the area because they have no acce�s. We
l�ave access problems to look nt too. Tf we can solve son;e of those proUlems and
provide an easier i'loia within the areu As far as trai'fic goes, we May be drRwis�
more of those people that live in the area in close pror.imity for utilization of
thAt area pri.marily because it r.u�kes it easier for them to use that area than to
go to PJorthtown. It uuxy not have the sane attraction A� far �s IVorthtown but
tbere are services there that tl�e people wouZd use if thcy were easily av�zilable.
Ms. iiu1�hec r�3};ed how the Pour qtu,drarrtc of 1dir,r,ic;�ipXii nnd Un�.versity tic together
or will 'che;� ever7 WS11 they �lw�ya be quite separal;e7
M�'. Doyscher stated that he did not; thinit thcy would tie to,qether. They could
tie together north�,outh. Aside Srorn addin�, sorne turning iriprovements and comc
signal.ization improvemente which the City intends on do1n� it wi21 be an improve-

highr�ay. Their goal is to make traPiic r,�ve faster an1 the �oal of the people
in the arec� in to siow it down. The state will win because i:here is a lot o£

they F�ould create cin office and cre4te pcdestxi�n rr,ovementc and hopefully make
it move back and forth, This whole erea is oriented to the autemohile, no't i;o
people and unless they rna};e scme changes people rralk a lot dii'ferently acro,s
a parking lot tl:aii tt�ey Sazlk alor� a side�:s1Y.. So he didn't think they would get
pedestriaii �r,ovement in the whole area. It i.s very 1i.l;ely that i1; �:�i11 re�r�in auto-
mobile oriented. That is the reture of strip com.r,erci.al areas. He fe:Lt they could
crea•Le some pedestrian moven�ent fro:� t,'r.e tpyrn;:ouses 21.�ng irississippi �to University,
P�r. Harris stated they �aould have to build in somv speci�'ie ways o£ movin� p�ople
who are handicapped or disab].ed so they can r�ove easily i'rpm the elderly area
down to the shopping �rea and that is not poesiUle no;a,
Mr. Do��scher sta ted if they set mdevelop;*ent �oals for the developer a� to t;+)lai;
they �,��nt they coulcl start to inte'rconnect co�e op i�;,
Nm. Hr�rris �tated they have to tie sor�e of it to�ether. `'ihe,y have ,ix phases

one of those facilities �aa� auto:r.obile orientcd, ide don't even have a sidewalk.
They may even have to jwnp the �Un in Phase 6, khich is the lo��er area.
Chairman Iiarris declared a recess at 1p;Z5 p,t•1. and reconvened tl�e meeting $t
10:25 P.M.
Mr'. Oquist aslced if he was a developer or businessman what would entice him to
come into this area.
Mr. Doyscher stated he would exaggerete it ftnd answer his question. Whet i£ he
said he would �ive you four acres of land for y1.00 and p�y �'or all his parkingp
Would you now com� in? They wou].d give you fouz• ncreas of ttie besc land located
one mile fro.n the intersection of 694� underGround pargil� AnQ pzy �or your

M�'. Oquist �tated he was exa�erating,
cor�r�z.>stora rn�xrlrrc t�nr
r'�'• Doy°.cher a�;reed but eaid he could clo th;;t anci make it worlc becauce of the
mone,y they are gettin� bock.
r�. Oqui.,i; stated there was a po:i.nt where the City has i;o sL-op though.
Mr. Doy�cher �tai;ed they could use the i.ncrem�nt for the followin,n,, ror the
purposes of discussi.on, a��u;�ie they �;cr,eraie y5U,000 a year, In t�n years
i:rat would Ue $j00,000. 'that ^50,000 trould be �enerated o£F'the Village Green.
��50Thqt is a concervai;ive amount, we ti�il1. �;enerate more than that. So rre generate
,000 and in ten years we l:ave Y;500,000. It costs us to acquire� �or e�:umpleJ
the contr�ct for deed on a struci;ire for y27j�000, LeL's Fay tl»t it coctc us
�500,000 to acquire this and �re sell it to yp,� i'or y1.00. 4Ie still hyve Lt�at

A1r. Doyscher sta1;E4 thµt this area needs a public incentive right no;a to csuse
it to redevelop,
Ms< Schnebel t�slced if he said they cleared the Iar.d bei'ore �they had the deveioper?
Mr. Doysciier. si;aced he xas sayin� �h�v should ]�;,ve a cont�<,�+.;u.al a�reer...ent that

b1x'• 13oasrl�nan stated th�t private developers cannot do tl�t.
t"1Y'• Oquist aslced if they nieant to physical2y clear it7
Mr. Roardman stated i;hat w�;, Correct, The City has the tools available to put

Ms. Schnabel Aslced i.f the City of hfinneapolis �ot in•to it'c trouble Uecause it
zaent ahead And.cleared the land Uefore it had developers?
Mr. Doyscher ststed tliqt was correci;, Here, we Are sayin� that the City will not

tdr. Aoardu�n stated it was a le�al document and the pnly wAy they could chan�re

Mr. Oquist asl;ed if' the dccuments in the front were for that document and stated
that the City was oUli�Ated to d.o thAt7
Mr. Doyscher stated those documents continually refer to the Center City Project.
t✓�. Hughe� asked if the Plan would be published?
Lf�'• Boardman stated it nid not need to be puUliahed. The onl,y thing that needs
to be published is the district.
Ms'. Harris ,tated t}��t it may be nece;sary to put in some facilities in other
'districts zahile we are in Pi�ase 1 if �ae rare going to tie the north and ,cuth dis�;ricts
together. It may be necessas^,� to put in som� sidew�lks or some sort of interiox•
street or walinaay or bike�aay between other pH�ses,
Mr. Uoyscher staied tliat le�ally, assum.in� that, there is financial fe4�iUility, r:e
can make �eneral i;imrovem�nts of a public nyture in any �eogrtzphic pertioii of this

that I,,r, iIarris was talking aUout such as loekin� at a broader ran�e aaid maybe doing
more tl�an just that phase is permissible.
Dir. Iiarris stated they n�y have to do it.
Mr• Doyscher stated they tnay haoe to in some cases like the service road. It is
not servicing as well as it zaas intended and rore may �aant to divert some o£ the
movement. So they might Ue tall;ing about publie improvements that require improved
accessee. The increment should pay for that.
A1r. Iiarris s{;ated that one of tlie problems with the whole areasis traffic and
access and thAt may be tl:e prim�ry proUlem and the reason it has developed t2�e way
it has. Tt uwy Ue necesc�ry that we go in and solve the trA1'fic and assess problem:,

Mr. Doy:cher stated that {;he other thin� i;hey want to l�e cAr.eful oP is �ometime3
we anticipatc ur.ec and then ta lund developer come3 in and we have to do bacic r�nd
muke chan�es. lte would prefer 1n thi� in�tance to set eome overalZ goals nnd

th4t our concerns are knotim anr� �rorlc rrSth that lund without �o�e givens ulready
tskin� p1ACe.
Ms. Schnabel stated this br3n�s up the goals on page 8. She felt that some of
thove ehould be rearrangcd and she felt that C and D should come Uefore B.
Mr. Doyscher staied these �oals were not in order of importance.

i�i,. 5chnabel stated that if that sras true and the fzrst phase was the Christeneen
Ceuter property. �he had a problem because what if the stated objeci�ive in here
is to �enera'te people and one of the methalc oP doing that ic tiirouGh an oi'Pice
buildisig. It sounds �ocd but ther. they tellt abvut needing fcur acres of land� and
when she read this she wanted to l.noF� why Frhen they hsd four acres pf vacant lrxnd
.on the southwe�t corner are they not tallting about puttin� that sa�;e office buildin�
there. If this is a valid argwnent for thi.s property� ti�hy hasn't that already
happened? 4lhere hac the need been dc-monstrated that there s?iould Ue an office
building of that size and thtzt nature and ii' there was a need rrny hasn't anybody
built it there2
N�. Doyscher stated that so�,etimes owners do not de��elop property for a whole
hesi; oi' r�aso^.s. They could be 1'inancial reasor.s or their awn �oals and objeetives.
The ormer m:y not be *ailling to ri�k the developMent of' office soace. Alco, the
rnaner may have val.ues set on it whic)a other people beli.e`�e to be unreal.istic. A
third reason is that Iie nay not �o out and actively promote construction on i�t.
Flh�t �re c�zn do is mal:e the land very attractive in terms of price, we could sunpl.y
a lot of other ir.;provements that �re frequent]_y needed in an o:fice space such
as parking and we can �o out and promote that plan with the development of pro-
spectust and improvements to malce it available. �de can do ma�y oY those things
that a private per�on could not do.
Ms. Schnabel asked if zt zao il.d not be cheaper in the long run for the City to
condemn that vacant land under this type of plan thr�n to �o through the acq_uisition
and condemnation oS a11 tl�i� other property where they have to pay relocation costs.
` 1
Mr. Doyscher stated they have to consider otner goals. ,Is is not a good existing
use, no�t in �ood condition� inadequate parking, �eneral unkempt appearance� con-
flectin�; land uses. It wotil.d Ue e reasonable goal for the City to try to malce
swne improvements in i;his area.
Ms. Schnabel stated that her point was that they htave s piece of property already
suited for what they ure sayin� should go on thera and they choose to ignore that.
Mr. Doyscher stated Lhat he did not choose to i�nore thnt. There is another given.
The City was concerned AUoui; this px•operty too and in fact exercised e contruct £or

Mr. Doy�cher wen•f; on to cny that he i;hought of'fice space was a vial5le optlon
becnuHe we have five nei�hborhoal convenience centers �nd 4re don't need any
more. To brin� in another retailer rre have i;o ma1:e �an assumption that this
retAiler tirill do soMethin�; difPerer.t from I�olly Center or Moon Ylazc�.otherwise
whatt they mi�rht be doind is hurtin� FIolJ.y Ceuter. ife didn't think that would
be in the best interest of the project.
Afs. Schnabel atated that she still fel1; it would Ue better to put the office
building on the other property.
bir. Doyscher stated he was not arguin� that there shouldn't be an office there.
In fact he feels ii: should be an oii'ice or l�ousin� unless they clear sone of this
out like the Fice Center and put in a Uetter kind of center. Eut when some of
that land was sold, it eliminated aceess. In his opinion the elimination of two
or threa of theee center.s rrould not be all that negative. S�le could do something
about office or retail if we do somethin� about site desi�n. Another thin� is
tl�ai he felt this had a market Area i'or housing9 density type housir.g.
Mr. Oquist stated that what he was hearing was they wanE i;o clear that area out
because it is blighted and there is no blighl; on the vacant land. He also under-
stood that they were trying to develcp the east side oP University rather than the
west side. To start with they want to concentrate on the east side.
Mr. Doyscher stated tl�at if they �ould cause nevelopment oY a suitable nature that
meets the goal� of tYi:is plar. they would not be loolcins to spend puUlic mer.ey. I�t
can happen by and of itself if it i� rnaned Uy one owner and is vacani; ii: is likely
to happen.
Ms. Hughec as:ced what the possibiii-ties oi tl�e Ci•ty zmposing A deadline on this
for itself.
N,r. Doyscher stated he would no't reco�mcend �trat.
Mr. Boardman stated he did not think that zaas a good idea. Based on development
and the market place they could be restricting themselves more than they really
sbould because of mEirket place attitudes.
Ms. Hughes ssked ii' they couldn�t cay 15 years or 10 ,years and the reason che
asked tiiat was she wondered if thAt z:�ould really be significant?
Mr. Doyscher stated that the real deadline was the district. They operate the
district for the term of its indebtedness. Sdheu that indeUtedness has Ueen payed
oPf and the Uoals have Ueen acl�ieved, this district�.is no lon�er in existence.
The problem with a lot of deadlines is that a lot of districts were only districi;s
Tor one parcel. Our di:,trict is set in phases so that we can go out of debt and
into debt intthe same year. How 1ott� thut wi11 go on is a response to the initia-
tive of the City and the �;eneral eco»omic condition of Minnesota and things we havc
no con{;x•ol over such as market places. We are not le�sl�y required i;o place a
limitation: We are le6ally required to pay off the indeUtednes�.

Ms. IfuQhes atated she wAS thinkinb us a tr�xpayer.
Mr. Doyscher otated that as a taxpayer they were really �ainin�.
Mr. Hora aeked QUout the hurnAn element? 4lhat ubout the peaple who are already
there7
Mr. Doyscher stated ttuat the plan includes a plan for relocAtion. The Uusiness
operators and ocmera will be payed relocation benefits even if they don't own
the property. The City r�ill pay to relocate them in an area oP their choice.
Mr. Oquist asked what would happen if they didn't want to move?
Mr. Doyscher stated they would have no choice. They r�ill try to make it as fair
as possible.
Mr. Boardman s�tated if they ��anted to stay in the area� they could possibly move
into a new building there,
Mr. Fiarris stated that they would have to look at tlze storm eet•rer service in this
area and would have to have a comprehensive plan for the whole thing. It is all
tied L-ogether.
Mr. Doyscher stated it �aould be a mistake to use all the financin� to solve the
se�rer problem. There r�as the option that the developer pay assescments also.
Ms. Schnabel asi:ed if people in the other areas of the City would be paying in
some way'for the Center City Project?
Nir. Doyscher stai:ed that the onl,v �aay they Would pa,y is if the City se11s general
obligation bonds and the redevelopment doesn't pay general obli�¢tion Uonds, then
the City will either have to generate new taxes or taY.e out general revenues ta
pay bond holders. The only otlzer way they would pay is if Village Green �•*as not
included in the increment district, those tar.es saould then be distributed probably
20p to the City� 60p to the Scbool District and 25j� to tHe County. That's 20,n of
the revenue bonds thr�t goes ta tbe City that is not now goirv to the City. The
question is most of the area with the exception of Village Green there would not
be any increase. It's not a loss of inca�ne they have already been getti�, it�s
just not an increase.
Mr. Boardm�n stated that tliey were ta]Jzing�in the Ceni;er City area of an assessed
valuation of �2,666�000 or in that area. For District 14� the assessed valuation
is around $78,000,000 to �'�80,000�000. So� they are tallcing about �2�000�000 as
compared to Y80,000�000 tote�l. It effects the School District by aUout .3 mil.
It e£fects the County by qbout 7�lOth of 1�. Those are generally the figures that
' we look at., � -- - • � •• - � -- - _

e
Ma. I{u,v,hea eeked iY thia would effect any other rarea of the City1 She wae
concerned'about the �req north on Univercity where there is pome commerciAl
development c�nd what the impact would be on that area.
Mr. Boardman ntated they were lookin6 at two difSerent types of commercial.
Thi3 cor�ercial ic more service oriented. Those cormnercinls will survive no
matter what tbey do because they are 1;he auto dealerships, and the types oi
thir�a that thrive a].ong the high traf£ic volwce tyPe aren.. They are trying tp
limit those typcs of strip commereials as much as possible within the C3ty
juricdiction. As far as the other Areqs go, the Arerz to south ie Iiolid�y Vill.txge
and that iy an established use and will remain no matter what happens. The Mac_
Donald's and restaurant chains are also going to remain becAUSe they are established
uces pnd thrive on strip type traf£ic. The other commercial areas are in the
City are the Skywood i�,all and Tar�et district. That axea will remain becauce it
is a high traffic mpaereent area and pulls in a lot of different areas. The SY,ywoa.l
Mall is service oriented but to the extent that it services a diYferent population.
The only other service area that may be effected is the Shorewood Plaza. That is
also e very li�aited usage area as far as its or.ientation and it probably needs some
improvement ar,d at some point in time the City wi11 have to look at that center a,
a viable center area and see c�hat type of iniprovement is needed. It's a very turn-
over t��e Area and we will have to look at it and see ti�hat we can do to malce it a
more viable area, Iie did not see where by not developing this area they would help
the Shorewood area.
N,s. Hughes asked Ns. Harris� opinion �;as of the projectT
Mr. Harric stated he would like to knew first if anyorie else had any questions.
tQr. Treuenfels referred to ua�e 6, Fedevelopment Goals ar.d Objectives, �D, and
stated thai� nothing was said wjth respect to minorities or handicapped people.
He asked if that was implicit iu the plan or did they wan�t i;o exclude those people?
Mr. Doyscher stated that he felt it was inplicit and he felt tHat �rhen the City
of Fridley created i;he i�tA had to certify and has, in the Section 8 Project, that
it was an equal opportunities plan, a fair hous�ng plan aud the like. Because the
City has adopted the Equal Opportunities Plan ar�y action they take are under those
auspices.
Mr. Xarris stated that he had read the document but wish they had more time to
think about it. They have been talking about doin� something with this pt�rticular
ini;ersection area for some tiu�e. The problem has been that of access and i;raffic.
Another problem was that of the ma�y ownerships of pArcels. IQobody could get the
thing t qv,ether. It would take something like this to move ahead with this and put
the project together. There were some thin�s that bothered him but it was diPficult
to gut his finger on them. He called them loose ends and felt that loose ends always
come back to haunt them. Afaybe they had those loose ends because they were pushing
eo fast but be understood Wl�y they were pushing so fast, On the other hand, if
a�Ythinb is ever go3ng to happen to this area� we have to do aomething qnd someone
has to take the initiative and there is no one else around to do it Uut i;he City.
He stated they had a lArge investment risht here in the City Hall and they had a
long discussion With the City Council reQarding this. 7'he Christen�on property
to the north oP the City fiall is legull,y and liternl]y blighted. So to protect
3EE
PLFlNNING COIM4IS,TON MITTI1dC� i�IIY 9, 1979 - PAGE 33 3FF
the City�o interesto we recomm�ended At that time that the City make a move to
tie up the ownership on the C,�ristenson properi;y becau�e it wa3 going to be
parceled off in cmall increments. With ull of the micaivin�s we have about the
project, he ctill £elt that if we are ever goin�{ to make this xrea into anything
we exe going to have to do it. And the way thin�s are �oing in the state legis-
lature, it appears that this is kind of our last chanee. This is the situation
we are faced with. If we are going to make anything of thi.s area and protect
the City�s investment right here, he felt 1t would be a worthwhile project.
Mr. Oquist stated that the thing that made the project attractive was that we
would not be obligated to a�b aiy but the City, ourselves. The concern we had
15 years ago was that we would be obligated to HUD, the Federal Government� and
they would have control. In this case, we, the City, would have control.
T✓m. Harris stated that in looY.ing at Phase i, if we can �et that off the �round�
tl�e rest will kind oY take care o£ itself.
.Ms. Schnabel stated thet she has watched this area develop and felt it had developed
very poorly. She had problems because, Pirst of all, she a�reed that something
had to be done rrith tbe aree, but when all is said end done they would end up with
essentially the same use they have now. The use would not change. She saF� them
spinnin� A lot of wheels and doing a lot of things. She had a specific problem
with the St. William�s Church property. She stated that had been tax exempt
property for all these years and has a problem with the City going in and bvying
it. She was concerned about separation�of Church and State.
Mr. Oquist stated t?�at he didn�t see any problem with the City bi�ying that property
as long as they h2d someone who agreed to develop it. If the Church is not go3nb
to use thai; property they might as rrell get it into the tax rolls and get �ome use
out of it.
Mr. Boardman stated that property wAS origir.ally purchased for the expansion of
the Church. They have gotten indications from the pastor that it probably won't
happen. They would just be looking at the undeveloped portion of i;he Church
property. Mr. Boardman and Ns. Doyscher have sat down with the Church and have
had some discussions with the potential of a handicapped housing which requires a
non-profit sponsor. In that way it would be an ideal situation if the Church wo•ald
provide the sponsorship for t:�at type of.development. The Church at this time is
not thqt interested in beconFning a sponsor, but that may change. It is still a
potential.
Mr. Harris asked w:�y they didn't chenge the size of the district and why tHey
included the Q Statian.
Mr. Boardn�an stated that by including the Church to the district they were not
picking up aqy taxes end by not including the Church they were not losir� as�y
taxes. They mey have to lose that Q Station as far As access or somethin� like
that goes. He wasn't sayinf; that would happen, he was just saying they might
have to have that for access. They i'elt they should include some of these areae
for the purpose of malificaticn or change if necessary.
u
Ms. Schnabel stated che r�till had o problem with why some of the vpcant l.r�nd
hadn't developed on it's own and if it ia viuble land wt�y haan't it developed.
M�'. Boaxdman stated the 4nswer to that was primarily cost nnd poor planning.
Ms. Schnabel stated that ehe t�qsn't sux•e thnt doing this would chunge that.
hk'• Boc+rdman stated there were tools available that would spur that change. With
the tax increment and other Pi.nancin� tools, they could give'the area p shot in
the $rm.
Mr. Harris stated that if we don't do something with this area now, the alternative
is that this area will continue to decline and keep going downhill. ife referred
to the Christenson Ceater in partieular.
TSr. Doyscher referre8 to the bueiness survey taken with the people who operate
businecses in the area. The majorit5� of the people felt it was � good place to
do business. The people in Iiplly Center feel they have goai to er.cellent profits.
The paople in Moon Plaza try to move to Holly. The people in Christenson and
I'ridley Ceuters feel business ic poor, and when asked if they felt they could
make more money in a different location� the answer was yes. Regarc3ing the turn
over r$te, 25� of the people �rho do busin�ss here have done it far 18 months or
less. Those are all located in Rice, FridZey and Christenson Ceuters. The
people wiio £elt bvsiness was pretty goo�, felt that i£ it was cleaued up and
the traffic situation improved, they would �ke more money.
14r. Oquist asked if we went through with this plan and in three to Sive years
found it would not ti!ork, how much would Fridley Ue out7
M:'. Doyscher stated they would out about �3,�0.00.
Nir. Oquist ielt it was worth trying then if all we would be out is $j�000.00.
Mr• Harris stated he could not see a viable alternative.
Ms. Hughes stated that the critical thing was the money that could be captured
froan the Village Green and that wouldn't last. i'he opporti;nity was now.
Ma. SchnAbel asked who the members of the Fridley Iiousing and Redevelopment
Authority were?
Mr. Boardman stated the members were Elmer Priedites, the chairman is Larryr
Commers, the vice�chairman is Russel Houck, 8nrolyn S�ensen, and �astoz Arnold Stone.
Mr. Iiurris stated that in the "Table of Contents" document on page 1, ��, that
sentence should be changed to read Qs Yollows; "That the redevelopment plan
conforms to s general plan for the deve_ iop�ent of tLe City of Fridley." (change
redevelopment to develapaent).

APPEALS COMMISSIOPI 1�F:PING, APRIL 10, 1
_._._ ... � 3QQ I
Ms. Schnobel stnted that the Planning Co�nissio� felt there wns no problem with
thin type of requeet baced on the fact that the density was not changing. So, ir
xe6urds to our question as to whether or not they would like to see this type of
situation occurin�� the ansrrer ti�as that they had no problem rrith it, f[owever� they
felt they had•made an error Nhen they approved tbe lot split on this requeat� and
aPter reviewing the Appeala Comnisnion minutes nnd having more discussion at the
Planning Co�mnission meeting, they decided that rather than treating this property
and ar�y like it as a lot split, it should be treated the same as a�y other townhouse
development. There shoul.d be a t rnrnhouse association developed between the three
owners with their own bylaws. Instead of aplitting the property three ways from
'ctreet to alley, the property should be divided up so that only the land underneath
the buildings would go to:tne ownership of th� people and the rest of the land
would be held in co�non. This is �rhat the motim on page 15 refers to. They are
now recommending to Council that Council understand they feel they made a mistake
in their original reco�endation and they woutd like Council to concur with their
new recommendation. With regards to the rest of the questions, they felt these
could be ansvered as they draft the new zoning ordinance. Tae Planning Coaaaission
indicated that they appreciated the Appeals Co�tssion bringing tbese questions
to their attention. In terms of this particular request� they did not seen to have
a problera reclassifying it as a townhouse because of the i'act that the density would
not change and control over the compiex itself in terms of maintenance would be best
controlled by the to-wnhouse association having the responsibility for caring for the
property in the common and also the exterior rcaintenaxice of the structures. She aske:
Mr. Plitscheke if he cuncurred with her suum�ary uf the event� of the Planning Co�ani.ssic
N�. Nitscheke stated tbat he agreed, but would sti11 perfer the lot split: Ae did
see the need for a townhouse associstion for maintenance and ihe problems that crou7.d
arise. As far as dividing the land, he felt the original reca�nmendation was good.
Ms. Schnabel staied that he should understand that the Planning Commission did not
reverse it�s original decision. Their original decision will go to the Council
recommending the lot sp2itj however as s follow-uo the motion they passed lest
week uill also go with the original reco�endation. So eventuFZlly, the City Council
will make the final decision. Another reason the Planning Commission decided to
reconsider the lot split was that if there should be a disaster to that property or
building and it were 50� or more destrayed, the City would end up with three sub-
standard lots. As an added protection, it was felt that it was better not to split
that land.
Ms. Gabel asked what the front footage was.
Ms. Schnabel stated it wAS 80 Peet total.
Mr. Nitscheke asked if the variance would hold up if there was a loss of 50� or more
so the structure would have to be rebuilt in accordance with City code.
Ms. Schnabel stoted that if over 50p of it were desl�royed the variance would be .
void und to reconstruct they could conceivabl�y end up with one owner not wishing
to re-Attach. In a strict]y YLypotiietical situation� that's the kind of thing.they
want to avoid. • ,

tdr. Nf.tccheke r,tpted thE�t his contention was i;httt in order to reconstruet the.
builcling, it L70Ul.d }IAVE; to meet City code. It wouZd be the same as it' an apart-
ment wcre dectrayed, i:he City could not foree the npartmeut m,✓ner to x•ebuild.
Ite f'elt the que�tion ua, almost mute becuuee under the 1aw� the Cfty couldn�t

1+Is. Schnabcl stated tl�at the thou�ht was that perhaps one of the three may not

Idr. Ilitscheke st�ted the agreement vould be that iP they didn�t Nant to rebuild�
they would have i;o se21.
24s. Schnabel stated that hopefully, the City Attorney Would look at some oY this
and offer a legal opinion. One of the main points wes tl�at they wanted to avoid
creatin� three substandard lots.
Ms. Sc2uiabel asked if in view o£ wfiat the Planning Commission decided, ar{y �en�ers
of the Board had an,y questions.
1��, Barna stated that Ar,y action on this now would be stating that this would be
similzr to a normal toomhouse development with the general property ocmed in co[mnon
and the propertJ un3er each ho�e �aould belong to the m,rner of that home. He stated
that he would Ue more comfortable �rith that than ��ith the three odd-sUsped nc�rrow.
lots.
F�'��• �k�nabel stated that the other things that were discussed y�as g�t the utilities
�ould h,.ve to te separated and that tor,mhouse bylacrs be drafted,
i%r• T+:oravetz stated that ihere should al�o be a sep�rate meter £or the co�on �roun3s
for such things as wEi;erin� the grass� yard lights� etc. It should be located an
the exterior of the buildin� so City personnel could read the meter.
i,Ss. SchnaUel asked if the Council would want to ].00k at the to„mhouse bylaws, and
would they wan�t them by the tine this item reaches Council.
N�'. N;oravetz stated that Air. Herrick would probably want to reviex the bylaws to
see just what the City invol`�zment Would be and also Council should review ar.d they
can decide if they wani to take action on tl�en. Because it'is a unique situation,
he wr�s not sure what the legal ra�ifications �aould be,
Ms. Schnabel stated that this probably t�ou1Q not reach Council until h'ay 14th and
she suggested ta�t Mr, Nitscheke talk to someone on Stafi �t�d £ind out exactly
what Council would want and when they uant it.
1dt'. h;orevetz stated that it probably would not reach Council until May 21st.
Mr. Nitscheke ctctted that would be no problem. .
Ms. Schnsbel sugQested they review xhat the Planning Commission did so they can
decide if they Want to take uctia7.

Jim Daniel�, Storer
Cable TV, Co.
John Eddy, GTV
Chairperson Kaspszak stated that the January 16th mir.utes had
not been approved at the last meeting due to the absence of two
members. He noted that this evening again, there was two members
of the Commission absent. Therefore, he suggested that the
January 16th minutes be acted on so as not to get too backlogged.
MOTION was made i�y Mr. Weaver to approve the January 16th minutes.
Nlotion was seconded by�Yr. Belgum. Upon a voice vote, all voting
aye� the January 16th minutes were unanimously approved.
- 1. EL�CTION OF NE'vJ CHAIRPERSON FOR CATV COMi1iISSION
M4TTON was made byi�r. Weaver, that:dr. Kaspszak continue as
temporary Chairman, until four of the five members of the Comm-
ission are present for an election for the Commission Chairman.
Motion was seconded by D�Ir. Belgum, Upon a voice vote, all voting
aye, the Motion carried unanimously.
2. DISCUSS OPINIONS ON T}IE QU�STION OF T4?�0 DIFFERENT CAIILE
SERVICES IN q SINGLE HOUSEHOLD
Nir. Kaspszak asked ,ulr. Daniels to explain in laymen's terms,
why two individual cable drops could not be put into a residence
that wanted two difSerent tiers of service?
Mr. Daniels responed by quoting from his letter of April 2, 1979
to Mr. Doug Hedin. (See attached letter}
4A
Mr. Kaspszak made the illustration, that if there was.a duplex,
or a single family dwellin�, with two differen� families, what
type of aervice could these people be equipped with?
Mr. Daniels stated that what he wanted to determine was. if the
Commission was referring to two different tiers of service
as additional outlets to one residence, or different tiers of
service to two distinet families or accounts in one residence.
�r. Weaver stated, after much discussion, that he would like
time to review the ordinance. He felt that at this time however,
as the ordinance reads, the Company has no right to discriminate
on the basis of rental versus non-rental property. If someone
puts a legitimate request in for an additional service drop,
or an additional outlet on an existing drop, he felt the rate
structure was adequate and equitable for all concerned, and that
that service should be provided without regard to the rental
nature of the property. Mr. Weaver further stated, that if a
customer wanted two different tiers of service, and was willing
to pay the additional rate charges, he could not see any reason
for not giving the customer the services he requests.
Mr. Daniels stated that he thought his Company could provide
the service, and that he would see that it was made available.
Mr. Kaspszak, stated that he had seen•a demonstration on a
�Down's Converter', that can be made or bought and used to pirate
the HBO service. He then explained how the system was used.

SERVICE HOOK-UP FOR 5ENIOR CITIZEN_COMPLEX OF VILLAGE GREEN
Mr. Eddy stated that he had spoken with the peop]:e in charge of
the tenants system at the Village Green Complex. and had inspected
the system last week. The next step ;.4r. Eddy stated was to begin
negotiations with Canadian Finance to see how they feel about
bulk feeding the Complex. ;vIr. Eddy stated that the problem was
that`General Television had decided several months�ago, or when
eonstruction had begun on the building not to service the building
�
4B
. on an individual basis. Why General Television had made that
decision, :9r. Eddy did not know, but that it was too late now
to be able to serve it on an individual basi�, Mr. Eddy further
stated that Canadian P'inance has stipulated that there were
to be no cables hanging from outside the building. For these
reasons, they are now looking at bulk feeding the building
complex. The next step, Mr. Eddy stated, was to talk to Canadian
Finance, and see how they feel about bulk feeding the complex.
He stated that he couldn't give the Commission any feeling on
how Canadian Pinance would respond to bulk feeding, but ii they
refused bulk feeding, Storer would not have any choice, they
would be unable to service the complex,
Mr. Moravetz stated that he felt that the marketplace may
determine whether the service went in or not. He stated that
if enough tenants wanted the service he could not see where they
would be refused, but if few r�anted the service it may not be
put in.
Mr. Weaver questioned why Canadian Finance might refuse the
request?
Mr. Eddy answered by stating that the tenants are elderly people
who are most on a fixed income. If the build5.ng is bulk fed,
each�:unit is therefore hooked up to the system� and Ganadian
Finance may not want to absorb the fee.
� Mr. l�oravetz interjected that the fee for over S00 units was
�1•75 per unit, and that there were 103 units in the complex.
Mr. Kaspszak stated that maybe Canadian Finance could be
suggested to just attach that cost to the monthZy fee before
they rent the units out and just state that tlie monthly fee
inclufled the cost of the service.
� Mr. Moravetz stated that the only possible conflict with that '
suggestion, would be that_with the Federal subsidy program,
and the b4innesota Finance agency that would be involved, he
does not know how if would eEfect fhe rent structure which has
, already been approved.
��t�r uommis�, ion Meetin� ' AUril 2 1979
4C
M r. Weaver questio�ed how,they would provide HBO service when
• a building was bulk fed?
. Mr. Eddy responded by stating that to put in HBO, it would raise
the rate considerably, and that right now they would just work
on getting only basic service into the building,
M r. Kaspszak questioned Mr. Eddy as to if they had made any
plans for Cable in Innsbruck?
Mr. Eddy stated that they were in Innsbruck now, and that they
have only a little problem in that they need the Master sheets
from NSP,
4. RECEIVE CORRESPONDENCESt
A.
�
Mr. Eddy - regarding the need for a public Access
Coordinator and a direct mail cable promotion.
City Manager _ regarding use of the Government Channel
for programming public interest, films and video tapes.
t�fOTION was made by Mr. Weaver to recieve the le�ters i'rom the
City l�q�ager Mr. Qureshi, and Mr: Eddy. Seconded by Mr. Bs].gum,
Upon a voice vote all voting aye, the Motion passed unanimously.
(See attached letters)
Mr. Balzart stated that Mr. Qureshi had looked into the Be1Z
systems Public interest programming, There were available
video programming on care for elderly, crime and how to prevent
• crime in the city, auto safsty, �nd other public interest items.
After discussion on how to determine Public interest items without
advertising problems etc., Mr. Weaver stated that he felt that
any type of Public Interest video programming that would be
aveilable through the Bell System, and other large comp�ryy�s
would probably follow the rules for Public interest on the
Cable system close enough as to not create any problems. He
further stated that any indirect advertising by these company'S
would be hard to prove.
Mr. Eddy stated that they were now in the process of accepting
applications from organizations, and individuals, with an
interest in Public access, and also that now the Black and White
studio is functional so they are encouraging residents to make
n
4D
use oi' these facilities.
Mr, Kaspszak, questioned Mr. Eddy on liow he was going to go
about encouraging residents to make use of the Public Access
facilities? ,
Mr. Eddy stated that in the next promotional literature he would
include information on the Public Access. He further stated that
he would like to encourage the AnoY.a County Workshop, or the
Fridley Information Center or whatever it is called to participate.
xe stated that these people would not �un into the problems that
they ha.d before, such as a pile of forms to fill out,
M r. Kaspszak then asked if they could have a policy statement
as to what regulations, or requirements on the utilization of
the Public Access facilities were needed.
Mr. Eddy stated that the limitations, and requirements were
laid out in the FCC rules, and that he would send the City the
?orm that needed to be filled out, which is just the name and
address. •
Mr. Kaspszak asked R4r. Eddy if they would have a news item pu�
in the Fridley Sun, and in the Fridley newsletter stating that
the Public Access Black and White studios were available. and
the requirements etc., and that this was at no cost to participants.
Mr. Eddy stated that they now have in the studio an individual
Mr. Tom Stark, who will now work with the Public Access appli-
ca,nts.
Mr. Kaspszak stated that the FridZey Sun was receptive to doing
a five minute news capsule program with news photographs,
M r. Kaspszak stated that they had said they would do this without
any Pree publicity, other than just identification. He stated
that the Fridley Sun would do this gratus. He then questioned
if this were the time for Mr. Belgum, and the Fridley Sun, and
Mark Scott, and himself to sit down to di,scuss and try to put
something like this news program together? •
sion Meetin 1979 � E
----------�_ � Anri 7 � �
Mr. Belgum stated that he would be 'interested in such a meeting
i? the Commission would discuss the subject of getting a tull-
time Public Access Coordinator.
Mr. Kasps2ak stated that he had questioned the funding for a
Coordinator� but that he didn't know if anyone had gotten am
answer from Mr. Qureshi as of yet.
Mr. Moravetz stated that f�9r. 4ureshi wan't willing to �ommit any funds,
because it was a City Council decision on if they would want
to funnel money to provide for a coordinator.
Mr. Belgum asked ii there was not money sitting there now, that
had been designated for this purpose from sometime agop
Mr. Moravetz stated that the problem l�ir. �ureshi has is that the
money received from the Franchise fees, he feels should be used
to monitor cable operations and insure compliance �vith the
ordinances. He further stated that he felt Mr. Qureshi has
some problem with what amount, if any, should be used £or
programming, which in a sense is the cable industry,_wHich i� a
private ent-erprise.Pnr. Moravetz stated that Mr. �ureshi was
receptive though, and that Mr. Qureshi was going to talk further with
the Mayor and_the Council about it.
Mayor Nee stated that he has talked to Mr, Qureshi in general
about it, and that he agrees that it does come down to what the
Council can and �vould do about it. He stated that he felt that
the problem and questions of appropriations .has never been
formally, or properly proposed to the Council in a concrete
way for action.
Mr. Kaspszak stated that somewhere in discussions, he had heard
the figure of around $f3,000.00 that then could be matched thru
private industry, so that there would be $16,000.00 which would
then make it a viable salary so that the City could in fact hire•
a coordinator for one year, Then if the ordinances were properly
amended so that the future revenue that accrues could be used for
salaries.
M aYor Nee stated that he felt the problem Qureshi was having was
that this money was not goin� for a�� cxtizens �
benefit from the mone � Th�t,.in o�de� �q
Y a person has to be a cable customer which
� is somewhat different from any other public investment, such as
a�ark. Mayor Nee further stated that if it were proposed as
'seed money', instead of continuing money the Council might
be more open to such a proposal,
Mr. Belgum stated that he had heard that the shonld be
hire a qualified y able to
person for around $10,000.00 for the first
year. He questioned Mr. Eddy if that was correct?
Mr. Eddy stated that he felt they should be abZe to hire someone
for that amount for the first year.
Ms. Davis interjected that how some had gotten around the fact
�hat it was not a completel
available at a Y public usage, was by having it
public building such as at the Library.
M r. Kaspszak ques�ione@ I�ayor Nee on who he thought the pro-
posal should come from, the Gommission or the Anoga County
Workshop?
R7ayor Nee replied that if it was the taorkshop that would be
receiving the money, then they should make the proposal.,
Mr. Weaver stated that he felt the proposal should tre submitted
bY the 49orkshop to the Commission and that the Commission in
turn should submit it to the Council.
�r• ��oravetz stated that there had been two or three letters
from the Workshop to the Commissi.on suggesting City support
for the Workshop for a y�ar or two, aithough they were not
concrete proposals.
M r. Belgum stated that the Worksho
be an extremel P as it is now, appears to
Y informal entity.
Mayor Nee stated that as it is now, it is just a tax_exempt
status, and non-profit organization. -
Mr. Moravetz stated that the 'seed money' was very important for
the Workshop for the first year or two, until it got o�f the
ground �d then they could seek support elsewhere, such as the
Fridley Jaycee's, and the Lion's Clubr ���� , •
4F
i�
Mr. Belgum stated that the Workshop had ori�inated from the Anoka
'County Library, and that they were a County system with a library
located in I�'ridley. He Turi;her stated that maybe it would be �
better for the Workshop to back away from the AnoY,a County Work-
shop structure, and see if another structure would be more
useful� practical, and viable, such as calling them the Fridley
'something', so that it would be more connected with the City of
Fridley.
Mr. Balzart stated that he assumed that a nam� change Would re-
quire a great deal of legal work that has already been completed
under the present name.
Mr. Kaspszal;, state3 �that he ielt that if the �ti�orkshop structure
remained the same, it would only require an amendment to the
by-laws, with the proper certification with the Federal Government,
and the Secretary of State. ife further stated that this was a
good suggestion that should not be lost, but that at this time
he felt other things should tak� precedence.
Mr. Kaspszak stated that if himself and P4ark Scott couZd have a
video presentation, he would with Mr. Scott call on some of the
major business's in Pridley to gei; there backing ana Support,
and be able to know where they stand by around September with
the business's.
Nayor Nee stated that to put together a show that rea7.ly sells,
takes some expertise.

M r. Kaspszak questioned as to how this had
• gotten on the Agenda?
Mr. Balzart stated that from the last Commission meeting discussion,
and from talks with bZark Scott on video tapes from Northwestern
Bell he had entered it to the Agenda, and it directly relates
to what has now been previously discussed as iar as what will
be defined as public access, and what is local origination.

Ms• Daviy discussed certain Bills that were in the legislature
at this time,
Mr. Kaspszak questioned if this was part of an appropriations
measure?
Ms. Da�zs stated that yes it_was, .
. Mr. Kaspszak question where the need for a letter came in?
Ms. Davis stated that she had not really requested a letter,
because she didn't know if it would help or not.
Mr. Kaspszak stated that in his experience� just a general.letter
of support would do no good. That if a letter is written, it
must be yddressed to a specific question within a specific Bi11
and directed to a specific legislator. He further stated to Ms.
Davis that if the ]vICGB needed help, tha� She should contact
Mr: D4oravetz, v�ho could contact Mr. Ka.spszals, and that they could
then see what specif2ca11y would be helpful.
Mr. Nee stated that he felt he should make it clear that the
State was trying to build a ceiling of S/ out of which would
be paid the State Board operations, which in effect would reduce
the City'S portion. So that this would have some reai bearing
on the revenues that the City could expect. •
Mr. Kaspszak asked if. Ms. Davis could get him a copy of the Bill,
and the name of the author.
Ms. Davis stated that yes she would get him a, copy� and that the
author was Jim Rice.
Mr. Kaspszak, further requested that she give him a call April 26th�
and inform him if there was to be a committee and When it would
be heard. Iie further stated that he himself after receiving the
information would go there and spend some time.

Ms. Davis further stated that the National Federation of Loca1
Programmers would be having their Convention in Minneapolis
May sth, and 6th.

4I
M r. Belgum stated that h� would a���'-aid the Conyention May 5th .
and Gth.
Ms• Davis stated that she would see that Mr. Belgum, and Mr.
I4aspszak received the information in the flier on the Convention.
Ms. Davis wanted to also state that about the Spring Lake Park
Cable territory, she had received some calls about it.
Mayor Nee stated that he had gotten some correspondence on it ,
Mr. Weaver stated that from the previous nights discusszon on
it he wasn't clear on what the purpose.of the territory was.
He asked if Ms. Davis could distinguish for him between having
a patchwork quilt of these great huge ill defined districts,
as opposed to Fridley Cable TV, Sprin� Lake Park Cable TV�
Coon Rapids TV, etc. Mr. Weaver stated that he could not see
where the advantage was in putting up arbitrary guidlines and
saying this is a district.
Discussion ensued about the bene£its and to whom the benefits
would be for.
M�TION was made by ,�qr. 6Veaver that hlr. Kaspszak and Mr. �Noravetz
dra£t a letter that would be sent to the members o£ the Commission
for any possible changes stating the Commissions concensus that
at this tirne Fridley would not want to become part of the Cable
Service territory such as proposed and state same of the Commissions
rationale. Seconded by DIr. Belgum. Upon a voice vote, all voting
aye the T�totion carried unanimously.
Mr. Kaspszak stated that he also thought that the Commissions
feelinbs should be reflected to the Columbia Heights Board,
that because of overlapping of the School Distri6ts there is a
concern on the part of the City of Fridley that this might create
problems in their refusal to go with Fridley on the Cable Service.
Ms. Davis stated that Columbia Heights was going to hold public
meetings.
Mr. Kaspszak asked that Ms. Davis keep the Commission informed
on the dates of the meetings. �

REGULAR MEE7ING OF JANUARY 23, 1978 PAGE 4
Mr. Yiltella stated he �ndcrstanAs from the motion that they are not to make
i a request for any variances to tha Sign Ordinance. He stated, he understands
i Lhe reason they are payin9 the park fee is because Real Estate 10 paid a park
fee and frlt if they are going to be treated the same as Real Estate 10,
� they should be able to have the same sign. �
, Mr. Vittella stated he sees the Councit's point of view that signs can be �
; offensive, but woutd liY.e to b2 allowed to request a variance to the Sign
. Ordinance. He felt it would be bFneficial for them to have a si9n the same
size as Reat Estatc 10's,
I�—+ Councilman Schneider pointed out th.e Real Estate 10 si9n is smaller than
vrould normally be permittrd in that zoning. He felt it was important to
. remember that Real Estate 10 is located on property that was zoned commercial.
i Ne stated the stipulation does not prohi6it Sundiat Realty from putting up
� a ciyn, but it hac �o conform with the existing Sign Ordinance. He felt they
' are already p7acing a commercial 6ui7ding on property that was zoned resiQentiat
and stated he is trying to �reserve the character of the neighborhood.
Mayor Nee pointed out the variance for Real Estate 70 was to the height.
Mr. Viltella stated they would have the same problem with elevation as Real
Estate 10 had and the sign would be in the ground. He stated the height of
the 6uilding would virtually block out a 15 foot si9n and felt a 6 foot sign
would stick in the ;round and would not effectively adver±ise ihe building,
Mayor Nee requested Sundial Realty to submit a drawing of what they propose
before the second reading of the ordinance.
UPON A t'DICE VOTE ON THE ABOVE MOTIOW, all voted aye, and Mayor Nee declared
the motion carried unanimously. __._ _

Ptr, Sobiech, Public Works �irector, stated a nublic hearing was held regarding
this plat and there were no objections from the general public.
He StaYed the question raised on ho�a much of Grand Avenue tvent with the plat
has been verified by records at Anoka County and pointed out that the abstratt
of title was read and a17 records indicate that the vacated was aqually divided
between the pronerty to the west and east.
Mr, Sobiech stated, from the map on Page 7A of the agenda book, it should be
noted there is a minimal boulevard and the Ci*y is requesting an additional
ten foot easement for purposes of snow storage. Mr, Sobiech stated Mr,
Brottlund had no objections to providing this additionat ten feet. Mr.
Sobiech stated the park fee is $600 rvhich }1r. Brottlund is aware of.
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated the property owner to the east is under the im-
pression that all vacated Grand Avenue property goes to his property,

Encroachment into Drainage Easement
Lot 3, Block 2, Innsbruck North
Please note the attached request from Mr. R.M. Swanson pertain-
ing to referenced encroachment. A review by the Engineering
Division indicates there would be no problem altowing this mini-
mal encroachment, since we would still retain a total of seventy-
three (73) feet of drainage easement in the area. This amount
of easement is more than adequate to handle the drainage of this
area.
It is therefore requested that the City Council consider approval
of the encroachment at the meeting of May 21, 1979, �

Dear Ms. Youle,

Re: Fridley CDB6 Bonus Application
Letter to Proceed from HUD
In our meeting with you on May 3, 1979, we laid out our direction which
we intend to take 9n order to accomplish the City's Community Development
Block Grant proposa7 for the use of the �onus money. As �ae stated at the
meeting, the focus of our proposal is to provide an opportunity for h�ome ot�mer-
ship for large family, low and moderate income households. The set of qualifi-
cations for family participation is as folTovrs:
7. Large family - at least five persons, or larger.
2. First-time homeovm ers.
3. Family inust apply for, and quality for, a mortgage either• through
the MFI1A affordable home participating lender, or a Section 265 r'HA
lender.
4. Income must fa17 within the Section 8 income guidelines.
5. Must have the down payment and closing cosis.
6. The amount of land write-down for this program will be determined by
the City in order to satisfy 6uilding cost limitations. Some lot costs

not be used to realize undue profits on the affected properties, we will
develop a right of first refusal clause similar to the one used by
Bloomington to control the premature sale of the property.
In order to ensure success of the project, the City shall:
1. Contact the existing homeowners of substandard units, acquire the
properties and re7ocate the families according to the federal
requirements for relocations.
2. Contract for demolition of the structures and preparation of the
sites for building.
3. Take care of the iegal matters involved for the above process through
the fridley Housing and Redevelopment Authority.
4. Selection of a qualified, experienced t11iFA or FHA

5. Send out invitations for bids to qualified builders. A
developer would be chosen from the bids, specifications, and
plans which tvere submitted. References will be closely checked.
Experience with MHFA will be desired.
6. Establish the selling price for the lots in cooperation with
MHFA and HUD - taking into consideration the size of the mortgages,
the interest rate, and the resulting mortgage payment size for the
new home owners. (The cost of the lot would be included as part of
the mortgage package).
7. Large families would be solicited from the community. In cooperation
with the Metropolitan Council, notice would be sent to large
families on the Section 8 Rental Assistance list (all requirements
would be listed).
8. Home ownership classes or semiars are not scheduled at this time.
We would be willing to �aork out an arrangement with an agency
offeririg such classes.
The major question by your staff at this meeting was the extent of City
involvemer�t in the program, so as to increase the success level and provide
the needed support to families who would utilize the program. I hope aur
discussions vaith you have given you a favorable sense of our proposed direction
with this program. As tvas also discussed, we feel it is essential to receive
"a letter to proceed" from your office to cover administrative costs, so we can
start to develop detailed stategy for the program operation.
We appreciated the opportunity to meet with you and the Metro staff on
May 3, and felt we received valuable input in programming our project. If
you have any further questions regarding our application, please feel free to
contact me at 571-3450.

RE: Per Diem Policy
The possibility of establishing per diem rates for City employees
has been discussed several times at department head meetings. These
per diem rates would be used when employees are out of the city or
state to attend schools or conferences. The advantages of establishment
of per diem rates are 1) that all employees would be treated equally
in the sense that all would be using tl�e same rates, 2) problems would
be avoided when it is not possible to get proper documentation of
incidental expenses incurred with travel, etc., and 3) it would be
more convenient for employees to know exactly what would be allowed and to
be able to draw the funds in advance.
The per diem rates both inside and outside the State of Minnesota are
similar to the rates used by the Federal Government. The Federal Government
uses different rates for different cities. This is a very complicated rate
structure and an average of these rates would prot,ably serve the City's
purpose.
If ineals are included as part of registration fees, the allowance for
these meals would be deducted from the daily per diein rate. The
travel costs to and from the conference or school sites would be
treated seperately.
The reimbursement rate within the State of Minnesota is �38 per day
and it is $43 per day outside the State. Total value of breakfast,
lunch, and dinner for travel within the State of Minnesota is �14
per day and it is $18 for travel outside the State. The standard
travel ar�ount is for coach or lower available air fare to cities in
which conferences or schools are being held. ��lileage is paid at 18¢/mile
only for conferences within the State of Minnesota.
Administratively, the per diem and meal deduction rates will be evaluated
and, if appropriate, adjusted on an annual basis in the laght of other
governmental models.

to concur with the City of Fridley's recommendation.
Since that time, however, due to persistence of affected pro-
perty owners, Coon Rapids has approved the detachment/annexa-
tion; therefore, it is requested that the City Cc,uncit consi-
der detachment/annexation of the referenced property at the

Dear Connie:
612-571-6000
I;xt. 5G
May 4, 1979
On a number of occasions this year, groups of young peop7e using our facilities
have caused supervising problems. Since 4J0 do not know how rnany young peeple
might be invol��ed in the creative play sessions, nor do we know what ability the
young instructor has in student control, it seems imperative that cei�tain conditions
be established before the sessions begin, and that everyone including the parti-
cipants be made aware of those conditions.
1. Use of facilities are conditienal upon community education classes
running at the sanie time, oi° upon payment by the city for use of
our building suparvisor. . �
2. Since vre do not run classes unless ten peop7e are ertrolled, we
would expect at least that many would be necessary to conduct the
workshop. It'would be difficult to justify Tights, utilities,and
custodial maintenance costs for a group smaller than 10 in number.
3. No student tiaill be allowed in the building for the sessions before
the instructor has arrived.
4. Student movement in the building will be limited to the gym, stage
area, and lavatories.
4a. Only students enrolled in the sessions tvill be allo�aed in the
building. Participants should not bring guests.
5. There is no phone available for student use. In case of an emer-
gency, the instruci:or �aill ask the building supervisor to unlock
affice for use of office phone.
5a• Bicycles are not ailowed in the building and no bicycle racks are
available at the Community Education Center. Students participating
in the sessions should plan to walk or be transported by the family,
unless tliey are i,�illing to risk damage or loss of the bicycle in
the lot.
19
, •• �.

(2)
6. P�innesota state law prohibits smoking by young people, and this
law will have to be enforced.
7. Food and drink will not be alloUreti in Lhe gym, stage area, lavatories,
or hallways.
8. 13a11 playiny, running, or rouyh-housing will not be allowed in the gym.
9. Only the instructor �•�ill be allovaed to operate stage lights or sound
system.
10. Stage and gym areas will be returned to the condition found at the
beginning of tl�e session.
11.. All students must be out of the building no later than 15 minutes
aftei° the sessions end.
12. If community education classes are scheduled in the kitchen, workshop
participants will have to reccgnize that conditions suitable for
class instruction wi17 have to be maintained.
13. In the event that problems occur with workshor participants that
cannot be corrected, the remainder of the sessions will have to be
cancel;ed.
I'm assuming Connie that you o�ill make sure that the instructor and �Y�orkshop
partir,ipants ai°e made fully aware of the above conditions.
Sincerely,
�
Tom Myhra
Community Education
Director
TM/ses
P. S. It should be noted that even if community education summer school
classes do go, there will. be a time before they start for �vhich the
city will have to pay our supervisors. You have asked to the creative
play workshop to begin on June 16 while suminer school classes are not
scheduled to begin until July.
