THE MINUTES OF THE BOARD OF REVIEW - CITY OF FRIDLEY - M11AY 14, 1979
The City�Council met as the Board of Review and the meeting was calted to order
at 7;40 p.m. byl4ayor Nee.
PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE:
Mayor Nee led tbe Council and audience in the Pledge�of A1legiance to the Flag.
� ROLL CALL: .
�
MEh18ERS PRESENT: M�yor Nee�, Councilman Barnette, Councilman Schneider
Councilwoman P1oses, and Councilman Fitzpatrick
h1EMBERS ABSENT: None
BOARD Of REYIEW:
Mayor Nee explained the Council was meeting as the 6oard of Equalization for the
purpose of considerin9 the question of whether of not any particular piece of property
in the City has not been fairly assessed.
He stated, if the Council finds that the market val�ue is not properly established
or tnere were errors i�n calculations, they are einpowered to make adjustments.
Flayor ldee stated, if any persons wished to make a protest and do not find satisfaction
from the Council, it i.s still important to make their feelings known since they
have to be on record at this meeting in order to taY,e their appeal further to the
County level and possibly the State level.
Mr. Herrmann, City Assessor, expl�ined, in order to determine the marY�et value,
sales are checl:ed.to determine.wfiat property is selling for in the City. h1r.
Herrmann reviewed the fon��ulas used to determine assessed��vatue for sin9le family
homes, both which are homesteaded and non-homesteaded, and for comnerciat and
(�' industrial properties.
(.. �1r. Herrmann stated�the Legislature may eliminate the "limited value" and if they
do so, there would also be�quite a different program for homestead credit. �
Ne explained, hoviever, at this time they couldn't guarantee what would happen in the
Legislature.
Mr. Hjalmer Anderson> 1491 Rice Creek Road, stated he felt the valuation for his
hoirs was too high. � � .
Mayor Wee asked if he fett the�.house wouldn't sell for what is established as the
market value. �
Mr. Anderson stated he believes it keeps going up, but still felt it was too high.
Mr. Herrmann stated there was a value for �y36,000 placed on this property which
includes the lot. He explained a good portion of the value is for the tot�as it is
a lot that could be developed into two lots. He stated the home is valued at
524,600 and the lot at�$11,400 for a total valuation of $36,000. He stated the
value last year wes $27,200 and not only has the home increased in value, but the
City was oh the tow side for older homes.
Hayor Nee stated thet the increase was more than the 10% allowed by State law.
�..... Mr. Herrmann stated the limited value would only increase 10%. He stated if the �
law remains reyarding "limited value" the taxable value woutd be about £2,700 more.
Mayor Nee explained that the Council has to make a finding that it�is not likely
that Mr. Anderson could�get 536,000 for his home, if he were to sell it,
before they can, theoreti�calty, make an adjustment. �
Mr. Herrmann also pointed out this home was in the area that was physically re-valued
this year, He stated the law provides that at least every four years a home must be
physically appraised and re-evatuated.
Mayor IVee stated Mr. Anderson is on record as questioning the value placed on
and could, therefore, appeal to the County. Ne cautioned, however, if the value
1�4
BOAR� OF RE4IEW MEETING
was adjusted, it could possibly go up instead of down.
PAGE 2
Mn Herrmann stated, if the Council wished to continue this to another date, they I
might possibly know what action the Legislature is going to take as far as the
limited market value is concerned. ' I
MOTION by Councilman Schneider to refer this matter to the staff for further discussion ;
and report. Seconded by Councilman Barnette. �I
Councilman Fitzpatrick felt the decision in the end vrould have to be based upon a .. i
finding that the property has been overvalued and not simply that the value went uF ' I
too much over the one year period. i
UPON A VOICE VOTE TAKEN IN THE ABOVE MOTION> all voted aye, and Mayor Nee declared �,
the motion carried unanimously. �.
Mr. Lyle Kieven appeared before the Council to�protest the value of�his property, ' �'..
the North Star Beverage, at 785 - 53rd Avenue N.E. He stated that the building �..
was constructed in 1977 and the valuation is probabty 590,000 over what they actually
had it built for and it is only 2; years old. - I
He stated, if they had known before that the valuation would be as such, they � I��
probably would have gone for municipal bonding. i
Mr. Herrmann explained�this property was valued like any other property of that �
type, just for the real estate, and not for the personal property or machinery. ',
Mr. Madsen, representing the City's assessing department> reviewed the square footage I
of the various areas in the building, and explained the fi9ures used in arrivin9 'I
at the market value. i
Mr.��leven stated he didn't have any complaints on the land valuation, but
nn the value of the building. � He felt, if everything was taken out of the building> �,.
there was no way you could come up with that value. ,_1 i
Councitman Schneider questioned how they are assessed per square foot on warehouse J��
space. . � � �I
Fir. Madsen stated it depended on the type of construction and the wall height and �
that the assessment might run between 513-�b14 a square foot for the warehouse ��
space.
Mayor Nee felt the argument that the market value is more than the cost to
wnstruct the building applies to everyone in the City. ,
Mr. Kleven stated they were talking about a 32% increase. Mr. Herrmann pointed ��,
out that last year's value was �379>300 and this year it is $412>200. '�.
Mr. Kleven stated there isn't anything else in the City to compare this business �I.
to, but felt the valuation is too high in comparison to the cost for construction ,
- of the building. �..
Mayor Nee stated his personal feeling is that the assessor probably came close '
to being correct> but would have no objection to submitting this to the County. j,
Councilman Barnette stated if Mr. Kleven feels this is excessively hi9h, the ,
next step.would be to appeal to the County for them to look at it and they probably
- have similar facilities in the area to make a comparison. ��
i
Mr. Herrmann stated that the staff wouldn't mind taking a second look, but . �
didn't feel they would cone up with any different figures � ����
Mr. Qureshi, Lity Manager stated the company has registered an objection so it ��.�
dces guarantee them the right to go to the County. i
� MOTIOI! by Councilman Schneider to refer this matter back to the staff for a report• ;I
Seconded by Councilwoman Moses. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee
declared the motion carried unanimously.

BOARD OF REVIEW MEETING � PAGE 3
Mr. Ronald McCiain, 6007 Main Street, appeared before the Council and stated
he felt the value of his property was too high, He stated the value is up
$2,500 which�he felt is excessive on a 40 foot tot that can't be built on.
He stated the previous value was $2,202 a�d the new valuation is $4,700.
Mr. Herrmann stated there are two lots side-by-side and they were considered
as one building site, with a total value of the two lots and home of $3F,500.
� ..
He stated the property is also in the area which was physically reviewed this year.
I�, Mr. Herrmann stated, if the two lots were valued individually, the value would
( be higher on the one with the structure, and lower on��the vacant lot.
h1r. McClain also pointed out that the value of the home increased over �6,000.
MOTION� by Councilman Fitzpatrick that there 6e a review of this matter, in light
of the vatue placed on the vacant lot, and report back to the Council. Seconded
Gy Councilwoman Moses; Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Playor Nee declared
the motion carried unanimously.
Mr. t4cClain stated he is under the medical assistance program, and you cannot
have a home valued over $2II,500 or you are disqualified far the assistance.
Mr. Tim Chies, 7573 Able Street, stated he qorks at the care center in New
8righton and knows this is a great concern, where�people exceed the State
maximum requirements, and are forced to sell their homes in order to obtain
medical assistance. � �
Mayor Nee stated the staff was directed to submit�a ceport and the Council will
then revi�ew it.
Mr. Leonard Cind, 7620 - 75'th Avenue, stated he�felt there was a discrepancy
in the valuations as his value went up to $45,000 and last year it was $38,700.
Mr. Herrmannti City Assessor3 stated the home is 24 x 44 feet with a total square
�.; footage of 1,056 with a 24 x 24 garage and was definitely sure the value was not
over the�market value. He stated the increase of about 16% is typi.cal of what
other property owners are experiencing. . -
Mr. Lind stated he noted homes in other areas were getting an agricultural exemption.
Mayor Nee questioned Mr. Thurston, representing the County Assessor's Office,
if the market value was affected in an agriculture land district. Mr. Thurston
stated�it didn't affect the market value, but that there was an additional
agricultural State aid credit.
Councilman Schneider questioned if there was any property in��Fridley which qualified
for the Agricultural credit. Mr. Nerrmann stated that there wasn"t any in the
City.
Mr. Lind questioned if he would be a61e to discuss this with the County Assessor.
Mayor Nee.stated they would acknowledge Mr. Lind's.protest regarding his market
value so he would have the prerogati�ve of going�to the County.
MOTION by Councilman $chneider to acknowledge the protest by Mr. Lind regarding �
.the value of his property Seconded by Councilwo�n Moses. Upon e voice vote,
all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously.
{�� Mr. Tim Chies, 7513 Able Street, appeared before the Council regarding tbe value
Iplaced on his ten double bungalows.
Mr. Chies stated the. value of each unit was raised about $3,500. He felt the
rents should be based on 1% of the market value and indicated.he would like to
keep the rents reasonable and didn't feel they should have to be increased �.
because of the increase in the market value.
Mr. CBies�felt you can't assess�a double bun9alow as you would essess a single family
home as these buildings generally depreciate, rather than appreciate, because of the
extra wear and tear on the buildings from people moving in and out. He felt the
market value should be based on the rent and the taxes should be in proportion to
the amount of rents collected.

60AR� OF REVIEW MEE7ING
Mr. Herrmann, City Assessor, felt the properties were not overvalued.
,
GAGE 4
Mr. Madsen, from the City's assessing departmen±, stated on that particular
street they had seven sales each averaging about $50,000. He stated, based on
the sales, he would see a market value of $60,500, with about $5,000 less if there �
wasn't a garage. �
Mr. Herrmann felt the value wasn't any higher on these properties than what
Mr. Chies would be asRing for them if he were to sell the properties.
Mr. Chies indicated he couldn't argue with that point alone and could dnderstand
the Council's point in establishing market value. He felt, however, there should
be�some reforms and that it�.should start on the City level.
Mayor Nee suggested that Mr. Chies attend the budget hearings of�the various
governmental jurisdictions and school district and pointed out that only 16%
of the taxes collected go to the City.

�r_ . �.- -�--- . _ -__._ -- � i
].48
PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF h14Y 14, 1979
Pnce 2
Commission held a public heaC�ng and has recomnended approval of the plat.
Mr. Sobiech stated, ori9inatly, the property developed into a multiple rental
situation and Mr, Nitschke intends to plat the property into lots which would
then be owner-occupied.
Mr. Sobiech stated�, since this was an existing situation, and there was nothing
in the�code regulating existing structures, the staff likened this to a townhouse
development and proceeded�on that basis. He stated, in this case, the plan has
been constructed and now exists and the City would have to concern themselves with
the platting of the property.
Mr. Sobiech stated the original�recommeiidafion�of the Planning Commission '
was for approval- basetl on the p7attinS of the property. He stated what
is shown on ihe map is actually.three lots i�n�one block. Each lot wouid,
consist�of a portion of the structure, a garage and then the adjacent
properties. � �
Mr. Sobiech stated at the Planning Co�mnission meeting on April 18, 1979,
there was discussion on the townhouse proposal. In lioht of that discussion,
the Planning Commission recommended that the property under the existing
dwellings become private ownership and the rest of the land become ground
held in common.
Mr. Sobeich stated the staff and City Attorney feel this could be handled
either way because once it is platted, the legal description would be for
structures and certain properties. He stated, either way, there would
have to be by-laws, filed as covenants, that would take into account
certain items whether it be from maintaining the structures, down to the
utilities.. He stated an association would��he formed consisting of owners
of the property, but initially it would probably be set up by the present
owner at this time, Mr. Nitschke.
Councilman Fitzpatrick questioned once the by-laws were set up, what �
about control as far as the City was concerned. � ..�-�
Mr. Herrick, City Attorney stated, generally speaking, by-laws can be
altered by a certain percentage of the property owners. He stated where
you are dealing with anly three property owners, you would probably want
to make it unanimous for any changes. He felt, in this particular situation,
the Council should make the approval contingent upon approval of the
initial by-laws.
A1r. Herrick felt this may be an area that the City could be dealing with
that may happen frequently, where owners of rental properties decide to
"condominiu�mize". He felt the City may be faced with similar requests in the
future from people who own larger units and stated be discussed this with
staff to some extent} and they felt they had adequate ordinances to cover
the situation.
Councilman.SChneider asked if this was the same process they would be
considering for condominiums.
Mr. Herrick stated, at this stage> the City doesn't have any experience
with such requests, and unless some new legislation is adopted he would
think it would be the same process as for condominiums.
11r. Sobiech stated this entire area of revising existin9 rental property
is being reviewed by the Planning Commission. Mr. Sobiech felt, in his
own mind, that if there was an apartment situation with stories of dwellin9 --i
units, he didn't believe it would satisfy the requirements of the townhouse i
or condominium development> as compared.with units in a townhouse design where _�
lots and blocks can be simply descri6ed, and comnon property can be seen.
Ne felt, with apartments you have a difficult time identifying what is
common property. �
Mr. Herrick stated he would concur with Mr. So6iech's comnents and that
. with an apartment, you have a different style building. �
PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF MAY 14,7979 PAGE 3
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated his concern is that whatever interest the .
City has in this> it seems would be addressed in the by-laws which wouid be
far from stable because they could be changed.
� - Mayor Nee stated ,he felt a little uneasy with it and perhaps a precedent
il .
� would be set and was not sure it has been thought through enough. He
felt part of the premise of setting up a townhouse development area was
� to have a fairly large development area to insure professional maintenance.
�� Mr. Sobiech stated one reason staff felt confortable going this way is that
� I there was some criteria in the code for guidance. He stated the only
, l � item in question was the area, aad he felt this requirement was originally
�. -set up to allow perhaps for recreational uses.
Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, questioned if there were other situations
in the City where a similar approach coutd be taken�. Mr. Sobiech indicated
there were several and pointed out some of them.
Mr. Sobiech stated another way to approach this would be to rezone to
single family and then have "0" lot lines.
Mr. Sobiech felt with the present R-3 zoning, townhouses are allowed and
the only criteria you have to satisfy is the square footage per unit>
which is the case here.
Mr. Qureshi stated there are certain restrictions the Council can impose
which they feel are necessary to maintain the integrity of the development.
Mr. Herrick stated they could possibly obtain additional information through
the League or the Ci�ty of Minneapolis, as they have had a lot of conversions.
He stated one point he would like to make is that covenants, as such, are
not enforcea6le by the City, but the property owner can enforce them.
Mr. Qureshi stated, as far as the townhouse development, the Council could
iirryose restrictions that could be part of the approval.
Mr. Herrick stated this could be done> however, the question is if it
would be binding�on the property owners. �. �. .
Mr. Sobiech stated in the Inns6ruck North development, the City had.an
agreement that was binding rn the original developer and the City would
have the right to enforce the developmental agreement. _
Councilman Schneider felt> however, with the Innsbruck North develapment,
each of these units were paying something into a. central fund to maintain
the land and exterior. .
Mr. Nitschke stated he fails to understand why one situation would work
and one wouldn't, just because this is a smaller number of units. He stated>
as far as maintenance of the property, he felt the City would. have as
much control through the City codes and ordinances as they do with single
family residences. He felt, however, if you had an absentee landlord
possibly the property wouldn't be maintained as we17 and thinks, in the
majority�of the situations,�that certainly would be the case.
Mr. Nitschke stated.he didn't feel uncomfortable with any of the by-laws
he has seen. Is.was his understanding that the covenents are binding to
all the owners. Mr. Nitschke stated the units are all finished separately
now:and felt they would remain the same. He stated he didn't see any
i� problems with anything that has been discussed. � � �
'� Councilman Fitzpatrick stated one of the points that has come up is
comparison to the single family residences and fel�t it was a matter of
impact. He stated it is true if you buy a home in the mi.ddle of a block,
you are irc�acted by your neighbors, but certainly not anything of this
degree. He felt they should keep in mind that they also have to think
in terms of other requests of similar nature.and aren't talking particularly
about Mr. Nitschke and his situation.
Mayor Nee stated he would feel more comfortable if they had some guidelines.

Mr. Sobiech felt, with the Planning Commission's review, they may be coming
up with some recommendations.

separate owners,�each taking care of their property, as compared to a
townhouse development, where the upkeep is taken care of.�

set, rather than just this particular piece of property.
Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, suggested obtaining additional information and to
develop some type of guidelines. �

Mr. Sobiech stated the City received a petition from property owners requestin9
improvement of this atley. Preliminary Assessment Estimates indicate an
(��� improvement cost of $3J5 a foot. He stated the only problem staff has with
i, this is that it is proposed that mity a porticn of the alley be iinproved or
., that part which is actua77y being used. He stated resi�dences to.the North
do have access off of adjacent streets.
Mr. Sobiech stated, in the past, it has been the policy to improve all of the
alley and wouid find it difficult to ma�intain alleys if they dr�r,'t have
ingress and egress in both directians to accommodate the equipment the City
has to maintain them.
Mr. Sobiech stated, in this particular case, the�equipment could only
proceed in one direction and there would be no place to store snow. He
stated this was mentioned to the petitioner and it seems there has been
arrangments made, in the past, for plowing and in this particular case,
the plowing cou7d continue on that basis, however, the City would maintain
it as far as any repairs.
Mr. Robert Hartman stated he was the oianer of three apartments between 59th
and GOth and has talked to the adjacent property owners and everyone, with
the exception of one person, is interested in iiaving this alley blacktopped.
Mr. Hartman stated they now have someone coine in to do the plowing, and hoped
some of the property owners would r�ork viith him on that, but that he would
be receptive to continuing to have the alley plowed.
rt A gentleman from the audience stated he owns a buildinn in this area and the
I= driveway is blacktopped now and questioned how the improvement would affect
this.
Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated the City would work with him on �the design.
No other persons in the audience spoke for or against this improvement.

NEW BUSINESS:
Mr. Sobiech, Public Works �irector, stated he received a cal] from a
property owner who owned a 40 font lot and when they made this improvement,
water and sewer services were put in to make sure they wouldn't have to
tear up the street in the future. He stated soine services were put on the
40 foot lots that could be combined with other lots in order to�make it
a buildable site. � .
Mr. Sobiech stated, he wondered, by doing so and assessing this to the
property if it may be a problem with the pending case regarding 40 feot lots.
Mr. Qureshi, City �4anager, felt the assessment could be collected at the time
the lots were b�ilt on> and have the record show they weren't assessed at
this time, but would be if a structure was built.

PUBLIC HEARING - CENTER CITY PROJECT:
MOI�ION by Councilman Barnette to waive the reading of the public hearing
notice and open the public hearing for consideration of a redevelopinent plan
proposed under the Municipal Housiny and Redevelopment tict. Seconded by
Councilman Schneider. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared
the motion carried unanimously and the public hearing opened at 7:36 p.m.
Mr. Dean Doyscher, City consultant for the Center City Project and President
of Professional.Planning and Uevelopment Company, appear2d before the Council
to review the proposed redevelopment plan for the Center City preject.
Mr. Doyscher stated the Council has before them a redevelopment proposal and
plan which has been approved.by the City's Planning Commission in terms of
land use and overall deaelopment. The Council also has a resolution from the
Fridley Housing and Redevelopment Authority requesting consideration and approval
of this plan by the City Council.
I. Mr. Doyscher stated what is proposed is a redevelopment effort authorized under
� Minnesota Statute Chapter 462 which allows cities and more particularly,
Housing and Redevelopment Authorities, to develop redevelopment areas for
purposes of removing blight, o6solescence, deterioration and unsightly conditions.
Mr. �oyscher stated on the first page of the plan is a description of Fridley in
terms.of its location and neighbors. It also includes the location of the
Center City project area and notes within this area that there are 73 separate
operating tiusinesses, primarily tocated in five neighborhood centers. The
general area is known as the strip commercial area along University Avenue
bounded by 61st on the South and Mississippi Street on the North and also
including the Village Green complex, the Rice Creek Shopping Center and Holly
Shopping Center.
Mr. Doyscher exptained the reasons for blight in some of the areas. At the
intersection of Mississippi Street and University Avenue, there is a severe
traffic problem with a daily traffic count of 29,485 vehicles on Universi.ty and
8,500 vehicles on Mississippi. � Another problem intersection is at 61st Avenue
and University Avenue and the Police Department has recorded an unusually high
incident of accidents, both personal injury and�property damage.
Mr. Doyscher stated that people in business believe the interseeti.ons are
- dangerous and it harms�business in the area. He stated they further believe
��that the small commercial area at the northeast corner of University and
� Mississippi is deteriorated because of land that is underutilized and that the
ingress and egress cannot be used to the maximum�capabilities because of the
�� � land design. He stated the�land is zoned inappropriately, with comnercial
� property lying adjacent to single family residences, and�has a deteriorating
effect on prime commerical areas in the City.
Mr. Doyscher stated that the Moon Plaza Shopping Center has very little access
to the property, with no exposure and �that the parking was inadequate. He
stated the shopping center is deteriorated and b7ighted in character and
nature of the buildings, lack of parking, including parking on the service road,
mixed uses and inappropriate land uses. He stated the nature of single family
homes abutting these areas limits the potential of commercial uses.
15A
SPECIAL MEETING OF MAY 15, 1979 PAGE 2
Mr. Doyscher stated the people owning businesses in Holly Center Shopping
Center believe they are harmed because of the access off of University
Avenue and Mississippi Street and believed there could be better access, if
improvements were made in the overall circulation patterns. Ne stated there is
a lack of landscaping and design, pedestrian ways, and general lack of uniformity
and design of the commercial area. He stated people believe the unkept
conditions negatively harm the business co�nnunity.
Mr. Doyscher stated Rice Creek Shoppin9 Center has difficult access, inadequate
parking, it abuts single family homes, commercial use is limited and has
severely limited frontage exposure.
In reviewing the 9oals and objectives of the redevelopment pian, Mr. Doyscher
stated it is the goal to develop the Center City area into a community wide
comnercial service area rather than a neighborhood convenience area. Other
goals and objectives are to permit the Center City area to become a mixed '
land use area for comniercial and housing activities; to encou�ae,c and publicly
assist new conNiercial developments with property acquisition and other financial
assistance; to increase employu�,ent opportunities to residents by commercial
expansion; to design and improve the futum land use controls; t.o increase the
tax base through cooperation and assistance to commercial and housing developers;
to provide redevelopment opportunities; to maintain a healthy and safe
environment; to provide various forins of financial assistance such as industrial
revenue bonding, tax exempt inwiicipal revenue bonds or State and Federal loans
and grant n;onies.
hir. Dnyscher stated, specifically, this plan calls for a developmerit prespectus
to be given to private enterprise.
Mr. Doyscher stated the redevelopment plan is broken into six phases and
each phase requires the City to make contractual arrangenientswith a developer,
prior to acquisition, and will. require approval of the ueveleper.
Mr. Doyscher stated Phase 1 consists of the land lo�ated cn the southeast . j'.
corner of University P��^�:�!e and Mississippi Street, �ieferi�ed to as the �'�..
Christenson redevelopn:c.��.; site and presently includes Brunkow Music, �!
Christenson Shopping Cenicr, �4adsen Office Building, iJorthwestern [Sell Phone �
Company building and a single family home. The area contzins about five acres. ,
The area in Phase 2 consists of land 7ocated on the east side of University
Avenue, south of the City Hall, north of the Firdley State Bank and west of
5th Avenue. This land includes Fridley Center, Ryan's Garage, three single
family homes and Ole's Garage and confains about four acres as referred Lo
as�the Fridley Center redevelopment site.
The area in Phase 3 consists of land on the southwest corn�r of University
Avenue and Mississippi and includes the Rice Creek Shopping Center, Fridley
Dur Own Hardware, �airy Queen, Car lJash, 6urger King, Standard Station and
A71ied Radio Building. The area contains four acres of vacant land approximately.
another 6-'-z acreas of developed land and is referred to as the Rice Creek
Shopping Center area.
The area in Phase 4 consists of land on the northeast co�rner of University
� Avenue and Mississippi Street and includes 1D,000 Auto Parks, Carpet Remnant
Supermarket and about 50,D00 square�feet of vacant land. The total land
area is approximately 2-'�z acres asd is referred to as the 10,000 Auto Parts
area.
The area in Phase 5 consists of vacant land lying west of 5th Avenue, east of �'.
hlcan Plaza Center, north of St. Williams Church and south of five existin9 ��. '
duplexes located in the Sandy Terrace Subdivision. The area contains about ''
seven acres and is suitable located for church expansion or housing develop-
ment. This area is referred to as the St. Williams Church area. j
i��
SPECIAL MEETING OF MAY 15, 1979
PAGE 3
The area in Phase 6 consists of land on�the east side of University Avenue,
south of 63rd Street and immediately north and adjacent�to the Rice Creek
Office Building. The lanE is vacant and is about one acre suitable for
connnercfal development: � � �
Mr. Doyscher stated the City may or may not acquire all or part of the
property to meet tlie goals and objectives�of the plan. He stated the City .
could also combine these phases and noted that the land uses proposed are
t ; basically the same. �
( Mr. �oyscherstated Phase 1 is for commercial uses, especially office centers,
� retail stores,�and nwltiple family.housing: In Phases 2 through 6,�Mr. Doyscher
stated he would encourage the City to insure that these begin when Phase 1
. has been contracted for to be sure something is happening for the property
in Phase L � _ -
Mr. Doyscher stated this plan is really a process that may go on for some time.
He stated it would be fair to note that the people they have talked to
on this redevelopment plan hoped that private development, without public
participation. would occur on some of these lands. Mr. �oyscher stated it
was his belief that the City's good efforts in this.area will probably cause
redevelopment by private businesses, without much public assistance.
Mr. Doyscher stated the City may or may not acquire all.or part of the property
and will make acquisition only after redevelopment or develapments are
proposed that are finanrially feasible. He stated a determination which
property should be aquired will be made by the City Council on an individual
application basis. He stated those decisions will be made in terms of the
goais and objectives of this plan, financial ability and other concerns
the City Council may have. Mr poyscher stated the plan is intended to be
flexible to reach the goals and objectives.
i � Mr. Doyscher stated, in determining goals for properties to be acquired,�
�`� structures that are substandard should be taken into account; lard and
� structures that will�permit land development and redevelopment parcels to
be large enough to accortnnodate new-developments and corresponding parking
. . requirements; land and structures to meet necessary public improvements;
properties that are non-conforming 7and uses when such an acquisition will
benefit the overall redevelopment goals; and propert�es that have been
icontracted for purchase prior to adoption of this p.lan.
i� In reviewing the Tand disposition and redeveloper requirements. Mr. Doyscher
, stated the contract and disposition dowments will�spell out in detail
� provisions, standards and such other criteria for achieving the objectives
and requirements set fouth in the Center City Redevelopment Plan or those
documents that are made a part of this plan. He stated the developers or
�' . redevelopers�shall supply all information necessary�for sound decision making.
� He stated land disposition parcels may be through fixed price offerings
� or by other means whichever will best assure the attainment of the goais
� and objectives. He stated developers are not buying land for speculation,
� but for development. Mr. Doyscher stated the finance plan calis for the plan
� to be financed by use of.tax increment financing, general obtigation bonds
or tax increment financing revenue bonds which shall require Council approval
pursuant to M.S. 462.585. � �
Mr. Doyscher stated�there wilt be determinations made in each phase which
properties are to be acquired; the relocation costs and the total cost of
�- - the proposal; and projected revenue. He stated the plan calls for the Council
I� to adhere to the Federal law regutations regarding�retocation. He stated
� the relocation program will be adopted, prior to any property being acquired and
moving out of this area.
Mr,�oyscher stated the procedures for amending this plan are outlined in
tbe Minnesota Statutes and it.is hard to know if the new proposed legislation
will make any cfianges. He felt there would be changes of programming, but
not boundary�changes under the State law. He pointed out,�however, that
substracting from this area and modifying the plan by taking properties out could
be done under the existi�ng statute, but the question would be if they could
enlarge the tioundaries. � -

SPECIAL MEETING OF MAY 15, 1979 PAGE 4
Mr. Marvin Hora, 6750 4th Street, questioned if any analysis was done on the
impact of the residential homes abutting the areas.
Mr. Doycher stated they don't intend to change the land use pattern of the
existing homes next to the proposed project and present}y they may have some
adjacent use which may be more detrimental than what is proposed in the plan.
He felt that by cleaning the area up, having traffic and parking improvements..
this entire area would be improved and the persons in the residentiai areas
would probably see something positive, rather than ne9ative.
Councilwoman Moses questioned the reference and meaning of the last paragraph
on Page 75 of the plan which stated that "the City intends to acquire all
or part of the property located in phases one through six".
Mr. �oyscher stated, for example, they have a developer that meets all the
goals and objectives for Phase 1 and all the property is required with the
exception of Brunkow Music, they would leave this property out, and only
acquire the other properties, .He stated, on. the other hand, if the City �
felt they needed the entire parcel, then �t may be necessary to acquire
that property. He stated this would depend�on the Council's determination,
and felt the decision would have to be made at that time. Mr. Doyscher
stated the purpose is that the Council can be flexible and can adjust on a
phase to phase basis. He stated it is hopeful the process to acquire�property
is not through condemnation, but if the Cbasedeon�the marketavalue�ofrthe
they will not only make a fair offering,
structure> but.to also pay relocation costs.
Councilwoman Moses questioned the process for the tax increment district.
Mr. Doyscher stated if a tax increment district is established, the existing
assessed values which are currently $2>663,630 for properties in the,Center
City project are for zll governmental units and the City HRA will capture
the increase tax. People livin9 there or owning a business there will have
their taxes continue to increase or decrease so they won't see any difference.
He stated the difference occurs in that the County freezes these values .
at the 7978 level and all increased values are revenue to the City and
those monies may be used for land acqusition, demolition of buildings>
site preparation, etc, for development in the Center City project.
Pdr. Doyscher stated the City would pass the�general o6ligation bond and
pay off the bond through increased values of increment.
Mayor Nee asked if increment was exempt from the fiscal�disparities�distribution.
Mr. Doyscher indicated he wasn't sure of this since there really haven't
been increment districts established in Anoka County.
Councilman Schneider questioned Mu. Doyscher, in his experience with other
municipa7ities, if they tend to come up with guidelines and policies.
Mr, Doyscher stated the kinds of guidelines are really a�determination of
how fast the Council wants this plan to move. He stated he believed if you
had something happening on one portion of the Center City project that private
enterpri��se will cane in on their own, without pu6lic financing.
Councilman Schneider asked if there should be criteria or formulas established
regarding development and final decisions. �
-�Mr. Doyscher felt there should be a memorandum of agreement so everyone
knavs who is acting in the final decision. He stated the Housing Authority
asked that the staff do some legal work on this regarding what rules they will
function under so when it came down to the decision, everyone�knows who
.has the�authority. Mr. Doyscher stated that the project should be handled
in phases, with the final judgement on how development occurs. in each of these
phases to be the Council's.
Mrs. Norma Swanson, owner of property on the northeast corner of University
and Mississippi> stated she can see°what the City is tcying to do and felt
redevelopment is a tool to use. She stated, as a resident, she would take a risk
of doing something to see Fridley grow again.

SPECIAL MEETING OF MAY 15, 1979 PA6E�5
Mr. Ooyscher stated he has met with many people who would be involved in
the Center City project inciuding the Pastor of St�. William's Church, Mr. Levy,
Mr. �oty, Mrs. Swanson, tlie Businessmen's Task Force Committee and many
others and they are aware the City is considering some kind of improvements and
feel there are many issues contributing to the poor business climate.
Mayor Nee felt, if there is a restoration of confidence�in the total vitality
of the neighborhood, then there would be a number of investors interested.
Mr. Newman, acting City Attorney, stated that Che Housing and Redevelopment
Authority has a great deal of discretion, if the Council wishes to delegate
it to them. He stated, under the plan there are a❑umber.of provisions
that require City Council approval. The plan states that new redevelopment,
land acquisition or land disposition must be approved by the Council. He
stated the plan does have quite a bit of control by the Council.
Mayor Nee asked if the general obligation bonds required a referendum.
Mr. Newman, acting City Attorney, stated this particular part of the Minnesota �
statues dealing with the Housing and Redevelopment Authority states that
bonds of the H.R.A. shatl be authorized by its resotution and this law
would allow thc Council to have the final judgment in order to issue the
6onds for tax increment financing. Also the Ninnesota Housing and Redevelopment
Authority Act is exempt from all State and local taxes and obligations under
the Fiscal �isparities Act.
RECESS:
A recess was called by Mayor Nee at 9 p.m.
RECDNVENEO:
The meeting was reconvened at 9:12 p.m.
,. Mr. Doyscher introduced some photographs that were taken by. the Fridley
�� Police Department in regard to accidents at University Avenue and 14ississippi
� . Street to substantiate that this area, by design, is a safety hazard and
needs improvements. Ne stated in 1978, at the intersection of University and
Mississippi, there were 17 personal injury accidents and 32 property damage
� accidents. At the intersection of 61st and University, there�were 14 personal
injury and 8 property damage accidents. He stated this would make a total
of 31 personal-injury and�47�property damage accidents at-these two intersettions
in the Center City area. -Mr. Doyscher stated this reoresents the:highest�
accident�count in the City of Fridley., He stated those counts are typical also
, � �for 1976.and 7977. He aTso noted that the Police Department didn't take.
into account the accidents between these two intersections and stated these
were.accidents that.were reported and had ovec �300 in damage. He stated he
would asswne there are more that were not over the $3D0 in damage and
never reported.
Mr. �oyscher stated it is important to say that tfie existing planning and
zoning is a reflection of existing uses rather than the City's new development
plan. He stated he believes the planning, as it now exists, no longer represents
the development plans for tlie�City and they should also re-establish zones
throughout this area in conformance with the development goals and policies.

was advised not to go to the meeting and becau'se he didn't speaY, out, the
Metropolitan.Council did not�receive correct information on the�lslands of Peace.
He stated, since that time, he has met with the Metropolitan Council because
one of the issues at the Apri7 meeting was a statement that other regional
parks have the some facilities as the Istands 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. .

recomnendation that Anoka County proceed to make an amendment to their pian

service department and there is a need for expansion and they would like to

approximately $325,000 in additional�annual payroll and increase the employees
from 72 to 20. �
Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, stated, in discussions with the attorney for
Win Stephens Datsun North, he understands the funding of this project would
be in the form of a tax ezempt mortgage.
Councilman Schneider questioned if there was some question about the legality
of tax exempt mortgages.
Mr. Herrick stated there has been some question about the legality for residential
purposes, but doesn't think there-has been any question for coimnercial or
industrial purposes.
Mr. Herrick explained this project would be done throu9h the industrial revenue
bond chapter of the Minnesota Statutes and the original concept would be
that they would sell bonds to finance the project, havever, now this has
evolved to the point that, in some cases, instead of selling 6onds, they
finance it through a mortgage. He was sure there wasn't any legal pro6lem,�
as it is accepted�by the Internal Revenue Service and financial institutions.
Councilman Schneider questioned if there was insurance in this proposal to
back up the project in the event of default.
Mr. Herrick stated> in th9s situation, whoever finances the project, takes a
mortgage on the property and if the loan is not repaid, the one holding the
mortga9e would end up with the property.
MOTION by Councilwoman Moses to adopt Resolution No. 73-1979 giving preliminary
approvat to a proposed industrial development project to be constructed and

Mr. Sobieeh, Public Works Director, stated staff felt this was a minimal type
of encroachment and would not impact the draina9e flow.
Mr. Sobiech stated the main consideration is that the fill doesn't block
drainage into the main pipe> and to follow the pol7cy 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 hi9her than the pipe. .

CONSIDERATION OF IMPLEMENTATION OF LARGE FAMILY HOME OWNERSHIP PROGRAM: I.
Mr. Sobiech, Pub7ic�WOrks �irector, stated several months ago�, Council discussed
the bonus money that was available from HUO pertaining to implementation of
the large family.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 P
various costs for a new structure. He stated the new homes would be available i
to applicants that meet the criteria that is set up. ���
Mr. Sobiech stated a preliminary application was submitted to HU� and in �.
this particular case, HUD felt prelimimary application was all that was necessary, �.
although there was some problem with the application since it didn't include
the process invotved. Once the proress was discussed, HUD felt comforta6le �,
with the application and will issue the money once the Council requests they �
released the funds. ��� ���
Mr. Sobiech Yeviewed the qualifications for participation in this�program, .
as outlined in a letter to Mary Youle of the HU� Office from Jerry 6oardinan, �,
City Planner. ..
Mr. Sobiech stated the City would receive about $130-$732,000 which would
allow for approximately three or four acquisitions and relocation of existing
families. Councilman 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 i.t is possible, however, they have one parcel in mind that is
120 feet and this may involve splitting it into two 60 foot 6uilding sites.
Mayor Nee asked if�the City or Housing Authori�ty 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.
�Mdyor Nee asked if they couid assure the neighbors that this wouldn't 6e 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 full cost of the land.
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated, presumably, those neighbors, where a new home
would be 6uilt> are now livin9 next to a substandard house and the new home .
would be an improvement. -� �
Councilman 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 the City to proceed, hopefully withaut condemnation, as he felt, if they
didn't, there might be a liability problem in that the City recognizes it
as substandard, but doesn't proceed.
Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, asked where the money is coming from to build the
new homes.Mr. Sobiech stated this would come�from the lending institutions.
Councilman Schneider statQd the Housing Authority i
customer" as far as setting the price for which the

Councilwoman Moses asked who determined who would be
Mr. Sobiech stated they would be governed by criteria

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. .
CONSIDERATION OF AUTHORIZING THE CITY ADMINISTRATION TO ESTABLISH A PER DIEM
POLICY:
Mr. Brunsell, Finance Director, stated this proposed policy would establish
a flat rate for out of town travel, one rate for within the State and one rate
for outside the State. The flat rate would include food, lodging, and incidentals,
with everyone receiving the same amount per day. He stated the main reason
Aehind this�is that everyone is getting the same rate and it cuts down on the
record keeping. �
Mr. Brunsell stated they might have a situation where someone was
travel trailer and furnishing their own facilities and by having
flat rate, they would know what is� allowed.
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated he could see the concept> but by not having
diem, he felt there was more control over acconenodations and expenses.
Councilman Schneider stated he
and lodging and receipts could
felt the concept of per
the full amount whether
established on meals
other expenses.
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 a6use since a trip
or conference shouldn't be a money-making proposition and�on�the other hand
it shouldn't be 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 ailowed 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, however, if the Council
feels uncomfortable with it, they will continue with their present policy.
Councilman Barnette indicated he would feel comfortable with leaving
it is and letting the employees submit claims for what thGy actually
Mdyor Nee felt the Charter was quite explicit about itemized receipts.
felt undocumented claims could possibly be accepted fo� cab fares and
MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to receive the report regarding the per diem
policy. Seconded by Councilman Schneider. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye,
Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously.

lfi6
RE6ULAR MEETING OF MAY 21, 1979 . PAGE 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 have been held and a conceptual plan was presented
for development of these lots for park purposes. He stated staff felt there
aas 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 Church 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 6e
put up for public sate. �
Mr. Brunsell stated Marcia Etlicher contacted him asking whether of not the
City owns these lots and he advised her this was coming before the Council
this evening.
Councilwoman Moses asked how long the City was consideriog this area for a park.
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated it has been discussed over the tast ten years
as this is the only property in this area that has never had arly park facilities�
to speak of. fie stated he realizes this is a senstitive area, when they have
a request from Redeemer LutheranChurch regarding use of the property for their
expansion. He stated the problem 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 Chw^ch,
stated she was never aware a park was being considered for this� area. She �
stated the church.will need additionat parking and requested consideration for the
church to obtain this property. ,
Councilman Barnette asked if the church ever considered this property> when
it was tax forFeit. Mrs. Etticher stated, as far as she knows, they didn't
and she�talked with Mr. Brunsell just last week and was advised this matter would
be coming�before the Council.
Mr. Ken Belkholm,�5870 6th Street, representing Redeemer Lutheran Church, .
stated tMere is a need for additional parking because now> wi�th 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 Fridley, but the activtites
of the chGrch also serve the youth.
Cou�ilwoman Moses asked how�many more parking spaces the church would have if
they could 9et the four additional lots. Mr. Sobiech stated they would have
room for approximately 700 more parking stalls.
Councilman 8arnette 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 a6out the need for a park in
this area and he agreed it was needed and i�t didn't occur to him that the
chu�ch needed extra space. �. " �
Councilman Barnette questioned�if the only day of the week the parking lot
was filled was on Sundays. The church representatives stated it is filled
alsoo n Wednes'tl�y mornings for Bible stuQy> wM ch is conducted nine months
out of the year. �
Councilman Barnette stated he felt very strongty that this park should go in
and hoped something can be worked out to everyone's satisfaction.
167
RE6ULAR MEETING OF MAY 21, 1979 PAGE 7
Cauncilman 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.i.n the area.
Councilman Fitzpatrick felt they do have something contradictory here in that
the City doesn't plan to provide any parking, but do have the statement from
the church representatives that when this area is used people do use the
r church's parking lot.
� Councilman fitzpatrick felt perhaps if parking could be 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 6e a joint use, he could see no reason why
the City shouldn't cooperate. Ne felt they could look at the options to see
if something could be worked out.
MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to adopt Resolution No. 75-1979. Seconded by
Councilwoman hioses.
Councitwoman Moses asked the meaning of "unrestricted", as it i�s 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 fior aqy particular use.
Councilwoman Moses also questioned the cost for the property. Mr. BrunseTl
�, stated the City would only be paying the specials against 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
Here considering the Co�rehensive Park Plan. �

REGULAR MEETING OF JUNE 4> 1979 PA6E 2
MOTION�by Councilman Fitzpatrick to receive the report regarding converting
existing townhouses into condominiums, as submitted by Jerry Boardman, City
Planner. Seconded by Councilwoman Moses.�.Upon a voice vote, all voting aye,
M<yror Nee dectared the motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated, in considering approval of the final plat,
there should be discussion on the approach the Council can take, either town-
house ownership or condominiums.
Mayor Nee questioned where the City has the authority to convert existing
rental units into owner occupied units. Mr. Sobiech, Public4lorks Director>
stated, to specificatly�state that the City can convert existing units into
�owner occupied units, there is nothing in the statutes; however, certain platting
and zoning codes permit development of a certain nature. He stated, in this
case, staff enlikened it to a townhouse develop�nt because it involves a�
certain area, certain numbers of units and density, and certian criteria that
could be established or waived to consider this as a townhouse development.
He stated this is the reason it is being processed through for platting and
the variance�requested to satisfy the townhouse development.
Mayor Nee questioned if there was something i�n the Platting Ordinance which
states�they�could draw a plat like this one p�roposed. Mr. Sobiech stated the
Platting Ordinance allows a parcel of property to be subdivided.
Mayor Nee also questioned�if a plat could be developed that contains about
30 foot wide lots. Mr. Sobiech stated the Zoning Code does not permit platting
into 30 foot lots. That.is why, i�f there is a positive eonsideration of this
item, it would be platted into townhouse property in order to strictly conincide
with townhouse plats that have been developed previousty. He stated there would
be 6locks and lots and the common property would 6e maintained by an association
that would have to be established.
Mdyor Nee felt, as the ordinance stands now, this is prohibited. He stated
the Zoning Ordinaoce provides i.f there is no way to provide a reasonable use - �
of the land, then there could be a variance; however, in this case, the site '
is alreac�y established. _ '.._i
Counc?lman Fitzpatrick questioned, if in the future, persons could build
double bungalows on a single lot and then proceed to split them.
Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, indicated this could be done. Mr. Sobiech stated
the report received by the Council indicates this has been done in the conver-
sions that have taken place.
Mr. Sobiech stated there was an articte in the Watl Street Journal which
indicates a rental problem with the conversion of rental units that has taken
placs� in the Eastern part of the country because, in some wses, you are
actually displacing people who cannot afford the homeowner occupied price. �
He feit this would be the most serious problem in conversions. �
Mayor Nee stated, it seemed to him, in�order to approve this, the ordinance
Nould have to be amended as there is no reason for the variance.
Mr. Sabiech stated, in this case, i;t is the economical or financial hardship
that is involved. - .
Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, felt the Council should consider whether or not
they wish to allow this type of development and, if so, the proper mechanism
should be developed. He stated the staff recommendation is that it be allowed ,
��on a limited basis> under the townhouse development requirements. He pointed .
out that the City.has about 70 units out of 2900 rental units which may fall ._i
into this category.
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated what bothers him is simply that he can foresee
that the Council would be setting precedent fnr setting up substandard lots.
He pointed out that you would not only be creating them with the existing
double 6ungalows> but would circumvent the present ordinance.
175
REGULAR MEETING OF JUNE 4, 1979 PAGE 3
Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, stated, aside from the policy of whether or not
the Council wishes to have additional rental units or not> the City Code
states, in order to have a double bungalow, the lots must be a certain size.
He pointed out there would be exactly that much space on the lot whether you
have one family owni�ng and one renting or both of them owning their unit.
� Councilman Fitzpatrick stated he agreed it doesn't change the density> but
only one person was responsible for the building.� He questioned why, if it
�-,- � wasn't necessary> it was provided for in the first place.
Mr. Herrick felt it was done in order to provide a variety of housing and that
it is cheaper to construct a double bungalow on one lot then two single
famity houses on two lots. He felt the concept of conversions with dual owner-
� ships is a rather new one and was not thought about when the Zoning Code was
adopted.
Councilman Schneider felt this concept might be a way for someone to obtain
two building sites for sale out of what would normally be a single site>
thereby circumventing the ordinance.
Mayor Nee felt the�entire question had Yo be reviewed whether or not they
wanted "0" lot lines.
Mr. Herrick felt the Council should determine if they want to allow existing
units of this�type to convart from rental to ownership and also if they want
to permit this concept for new construction. He pointed.out, if this was to
be allowed, the mechanics of it could be done under the code, as it stands
now, or with some simple modifications.
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated he was not prepared to allow building on 3D
foot lots.
P1r. Qureshi stated it is a question on whether the Council wishes to permit
�����, � more rental units or more private ovmership.
L.J Mayor Nee questioned whether one person or several would be responsible for the
' structure. " �
Mr. Sobiech stated there would be a developmental agreement which would indicate
that the by-laws would be reviewed and that would be enforceable because it
is an agreement between the City and developer. .
Mr. Nerrick stated a�development agreement would be enforceable, but probahly
only until the development is complete, then it is up to the individual
property owners to operate it, unless it violates some of the City's other
codes.
Councilman Barnette pointed out that these units only have one water meter and
if one person doesn't pay their bill, how is this handled.
Mr. Sobiech stated it rrould be covered in the 6y-laws. Mr. Herrick stated a
lien could also be placed against all the property, i�f it is a service that is
being used by alt.
Councilwoman Moses stated they have this concept in Brooklyn Park and the
residents pay an additional sum, in additian to their�rent, to cover the
casts for utilities. -
Mayor Nee questioned, under this concept, if convenants could be put in> such
I as-a co-op. Mr. Herrick felt this might be a passibility.
Mr. Sobiech stated the Plannin9 Comnission is in the process of reviewing the
Zoning Code and the Metropolitan Council will be stuQying this concept in
the next several rtanths.

RE6ULAR MEETIN6 OF JUNE 4, 1979 . PAGE 4
Councilwoman Moses stated she personally felt this is a trend that is happening
now and wpuld like to pass this item, rather than table it.
Mr. Herrick stated that some communities have cluster developments�and felt
perhaps this might be quite similar where units are very close together and
there is a lot of open space that is commonly owned by the entire group.
Councilman Schneider felt there�were several issues that this particular plat
doesn't raise. He indicated he was concerned with the general maintenance and
also that possibly a developer may find some way of using this to totalty undo
sar� areas by not fotlowing the intent of the Zoning Code.
Councilwoman Moses suggested looking at this concept in terms of existing
structures and at new construction in another light.
Mayor Nee stated he would feel much better if this was in the Zoning Code
as he has a problem of how to rationalize a variance, as far as hardship,
since it is now an existing use. .
Mr. Herrick felt that if the Council has any inclinations to authorize this
type of conversion, they could prepare a procedure to altow it, however, if
they felt it was something they didn't want, there wouldn't be arty reason for
spending time in establishing a procedure.
MOTION by Councilman Barnette to table this item indefinitely for further infor-
mation and refer thi; concept to the Planning Commission for their processing
and policy recommendation pertaining to the conversion concept. Seconded by
Councilman Schneider. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared
the motion carried unanimously.

RECEIVING THE PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES Of MAY 23, 1979:
REZONIN6 REQUEST, ZOA t�79-02, BY WILLIAM J.�HFlRT (E431��HIGHNAY N65): i
MOTION by Councilman Schneider to set the public hearing on this rezoning �����
request for ,luly 16, 1979. Seconded by Councilman Fitzpatrick. Upon a
voice vote, a71 voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously.
� REQUEST FOR SPECIAL USE PERMIT, SP H79-04, 6Y JOSEPH PERROZZI (E181
�. RIVERVIEW TERRACE : � �
Mr. Sobiech, Public Works Director, stated a special use permit is required
due to the flood plain zoning of the property and, in conjunction with the
speeial use permit, variances are requested for waiver of the setbacks.
Mr. Sobiech stated the entire lot is not in the flood plain, but only the area
along the front of the�property. He stated, in this particular case, they -
vrould he raising the first floor with pilings and then.raising the lot to insure no
impact ar minimal impact on aQjacent properties.
Mr. Sobiech stated the Planning Commission recommended approval of this
special use permit at their May 23 meeting. �
Mr. Sobiech stated he was confident that this drainage plan, as set up, will
�handle the drainage. He stated there was discussion at the Planning Commission
meeting.about the amount of slope on the swale section, but he felt it was
adequate.
Mr. Sobiech stated the petitioner did propose a certain dimension house for
the property, however, it was recommended that the house be redesigned to
eliminate the need for the side yard variance, which was denied 6y the Appeals
Comnission. He stated the Appeals Comnission did> however, approve a variance for
reduction in the area of the lot.
Mr. Sabiech felt this Nas a very good plan as compared with others in the area.
Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, stated as far�as the drainage, the standard rule
in Minnesota is that an avner may Aevelop his property in a reasonable fashion,
as long as it dcesn't unnecessarily burden the neighbor. He stated it is a
very generat rule and depends on a situation-by-situation application.
17T
REGULAR MEETING OF JUNE 4, 1979 P,AGE 5
Mr._Herrick questioned if�there was a storm sewer in }his area and if construction
of this house would prevent water from getting to the storm system. Mr. Sobiech
stated from the grade indicated, he would answer in the negative. Mr. Herrick
felt the property owner would have a pretty strong argument that the City can't
use his property as a drainage basin. He stated he would suspect he could build
on the property, providing he meets the other criteria.
Councilman fitzpatrick stated Mr. Sobiech has stated there really isn't a
probl�em, but it seems to him if this had been deve7oped by raising the fill �
� i two feet> it would shut off the drainage fran the northeast.
Mr. Herrick stated he doesn't have nearly as much trouble with the concept of
sdying he can build, but has to insure drainage, as with the problem of saying
he cannot build on this lot because it has to be used for drainage. If you do
this you are saying it is unreasonable or reverse condemnation where the City
is really taking the lot for public purpose.
Mr. Sobiech felt the concern of the Planning Commission should be reinforced
regarding the drainage to insure no or minimal impact on the neighbors.
MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to grant special use permit, SP �79-04, with
the stipulation that the City be satisified that the drainage plan, as described
and discussed, would be maintained in construction. Seconded by Councilman
Barnette. Upon a voice vote, alt voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion
carried unanimously,
REQUEST FOR SPECIAL USE PERMIT SP M79-05 BY JAMES LARSON (6740 4TH

Mr. Sobiech, Public Works Director, stated this� ia a request for a�special use
permit.to allow a second accessory building for use as a garage and storage
of automobiles.
He stated the Planning Comnission held a public hearing and has recomnended
approval.
�_J Mr. Sobiech stated the petitioner is unable to attend because of a recent motor-
cycle accident.

-� RIANCE REQUEST BY JOSEPH PERROZZI 81II1 RIVERVIEW TERRACEI• .
� Mr. Sobiecb, Public Works Director, stated this is a request for variances,
in conjunction with the special use permit��. for construction of a single
family dwelling in the flood plain.
Mr. Sobiech stated the Appeals Comnission has recammended denial of the side
yard setback and recommended approval of the variance for reduction in the�
area of. the lot.
�
17A PAGE 6
REGULAR MEETING OF JUNE 4, 1979
Mr. Perrozzi stated the Appeats Commission had made a reco�mnendation to turn
the house sideways and if this was done, you would not have a view of the river.
Mr. Perrozzi stated he felt the requirement for the ten foot setback was
excessive> as other communities only require five feet. He felt, if he couldn't
obtain a variance for the side yard setvack, the house wouldn't really serve
his family's needs. Mr. Perrozzi Pointed out that the other houses in the area
are not in comptiance with the setback requirement.
Councilman Fitzpatrick felt, if the structure gets too close to the adjacent
property, it 6ecomes a fire problRm and other problems foreseen by adoption
of the ordinance in the first place. He stated, however, he hates to tell Mr.
Perrozzi he can have a house only 29 feet frontage when he wants 34 feet. �
pir. Sobiech stated this., again�, is the situation that the variance should be
based on hardship. He stated the hardship Mere would be that Mr. Perrozzi:
vrould have a smaller home.
Councitman Fitzpatrick stated he can understand the hardship, but granting the .
variance becomes a public problem.
MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to concur with the recortmendation of the
Appeals Comnission to grant the variance for reduction of the lot area, but to
deny the variance on the side yard setback. Seconded by Councilman Schneider.
Mr. Perrozzi stated the problem with the side yard setback was to make adequate�
facilities for the Fire Department, but all that was required was nine feet and
even with the variance of�the side yard setback to five feet, there would still be
nine feet between his structure and the neighbor's garage.
Councilman Fitzpatri�ck felt there was a reason why there is a different setback
required when it is a garage to house arrangement�, as it is assumed the fire
aspect.is increased at that point. He stated he could see the reason for
naking the request, but felt a number of allowances have been made on this
property and his motion would be to concur with the Appeats Coimnission.
Mr. Qureshi> City Manager, pointed out that staff woultl check the disputed � 1
variations they have on the map. j
Councilman Barnette asked Mr. Perrozzi if the variance for the side yard set-
back is denied, if he would still build on this lot. Mr. Perrozzi stated
he wauld have to meet with an architect to design a house to meet.the setback �.
requirements and couldn't make that decision until he confers with an architect.
UPON A VOI�CE VOTE TAKEN ON THE MOTION, all voted aye, and Mayor Nee declared the
rtation carried unanimously. . .

REGULAR MEETING OF JUNE 4, 1979 PAGE 7
Mr. Qureshi stated this agreement is written for a larger unit of government
that is�capabte of performing architectural function5. He stated, since the
City�daesn't have any architect on the staff, the proposal is that the City
contract services for that purpose. He stated he understands that up to 12%
of the total contract would be reimbursed to the City for that type of service.
Councilman Barnette questioned then that it would not be money out of the
Ctty's funds, but money out of the grant funds. �r. Qureshi stated up to 12%.
� MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to authorize execution of the grant agreement
wSth the F9etropolitan COuncil for the North�Park Visitation Center. Seconded
by Councilwoman hioses.
Councilman Barnette stated the City woulA receive a grant of $365,000 for con-
struction of a reception center and associated items for North Park, but asked
if there was any consideration of what it would cost to operate and maintain �
the faci7ity and who would do this. He stated he assumes the Springbrook
Nature Foundation would pay for alt the costs, but asked if there were any provisions
or agreements indicating that the City wouldn't be required to maintain the
operation: He pointed out the buitding would be constructed, but there would
be no provisions for maintaining it.
Mayor Nee�stated it would depend if the lease is renewed with the Springbrook
Nature Foundation. � � �
Councilman Barnette asked, if the lease was renewed, and the.Springbrook Foundation
dcesn't come up with private funds to maintain it, how it would be done.
Mayor Nee stated the City woutd have to maintain it.
UPON A VOICE VOTE TAKEN ON THE ABOVE MOTION, Mayor Nee, Councilman Schneider,
Councilman FitZpatrick and Councilwoman Moses voted in favor. Councilman-
Barnette voted against the motion. Mdyor Nee declared the motion carried by
�� a 4 to 1 vote.
L i CONSIDERATION OF E%ECUTING CONTRACT WITH ARCHITECT FOR NORTH PARK VISITATION
CENTER:
Mr. Qureshi,.City Manager, stated, in discussions with the architect, he felt the
12% was a high fee. He stated the architect felt this was a special type of
building and would require much more work than an ordinary building.� He stated,
however, the City staff proposed that the City wouid go the maximum of 11%,
w9th each phase of the contract, and either pay the 11% of the contract or 2-�,
�times the base salary in regard to the actual time they put in, and the acual
sub consultant fee, whichever is less. He stated this arrangement was agreeable
with the architect so he is submitting it for the Council's consideration.
Mayor Nee stated one comnent made to him was that the City should clear7y
establish the existence of adequate errors and omissions insurance and who their
consultants would be. Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated the Council could approve
the execution of the contract subject to the architect•showing they have adequate
fnsurance.
Mdyor Nee asked if the contract calls for them to design tAe building within
the amount of money available. Mr. Qureshi stated their proposal is to pravide a
structure with�a nNnber of alternatives. He stated it is their hope to get a
maxim�m structure and facilities, within the amount availabte, and this would be
done by praviding alternates.
(�. Councilman Barnette asked if the architect designed a building that wasn't
suitable and the design was turned down, if there was a fee that has to be
paid 6y the architect. Mr. Qureshi stated the fee wauld have to be paid, but the
approach is generally that you don't go into detailed plans until you have concept
approval. He felt a conceptual plan would be developed, before proceed9ng with
detailed plans. _
REGULAR MEETING JUNE 4, 1979
Mr. Herrick, City Attorney., asked what provision is made.if they went out for
bids and they came in for more than the grant money. Mr. Qureshi stated there
would be a7ternates and the City would make a choice of how much of a 6uilding
they wanted. '
Mr. Herrick felt Mr. Qureshi's comment is that there is enough margin that the
basic part could 6e buitt, within the grant money available, and then determine
what additiona7 amenities could 6e added, depending an how the bids came in.
MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to authorize -the execution of the contract
with�the architect, Design Consortium, Inc.> with the stipulation that there
is sufficient errors and omissions insurance to cover the project. Seconded
by Councilwoman Moses. Upon a voice vote> Playor Nee, Councilman Schneider,
Councilwoman Moses, and Councilman Ftizpatrick voted in favor. Councilman Barnette
abstained from voting. Mayor Nee deciared the motion carried by a 4 to 1 vote.
CONSIDERATION OF SHADE TREE DISEASE CONTROL PROGRAM FDR 1979:
Mayor Nee questioned Option A for tree removal which indicated that all diseased
wood must be removed from the property at the property owner's expense.
Dr. �Boudreau, Director of Parks and Recreation, stated when a property owner �
chooses to fell his own tree> he wouldn't be reimbursed for part of the cost.
Mayor Nee questio�ed if they hadn't done this in the past. Dr. Boudreau stated the
City has, in the past, provided for pick-up of the diseased wood, but because
of the loss of CETA personnel and because they�have�found some people abusing the
free hauling, they are suggesting these changes. �Mayor Nee also questioned the
requirement for stacking at the curb. Dr. Boudreau stated this would cut down
on the charge and assist the contractor, if the City removes the diseased wood.
Mayor Nee stated, as he sees it, the property owner could only get assistance
in the cost for removal of the tree, if they have the City remove it.
Or. Boudreau s.tated that was correct as it is a complete job, with the con-
tractor removing the.tree, as opposed to a property owner cutting his own .
tree.
Councilman Fitzpatrick asked what the bulk of the money received from the
State is going towards.
Dr. Boudreau stated for payment of the City contractor's expense and to aid in
the cost for reforestation.
Mayor Nee felt the letter sent to the property owner could be softened to accent
the positive aspects, instead of the negative aspects. .
�r. Boudreau stated usually this non-compliance letter is sent in cases where
there have been repeated attempts made for compliance. -
Mdyor Nee felt it should be mentioned in the letter that the City would pay for
50% of the cost and Dr. Boudreau stated it could be changed to indicate that the
property owner would be billed for 50% of the cost of removal, with the City
paying the other 50%.
Dr.�Boudreau pointed�out the City's past experiences have not been gaod in -
providing the service of hauling away the diseased wood. He stated the City does
not have the manpower, in house, to do this job and it wouid have to be given to
the contracton
Councilman Schneider asked if the City did the hauling> if the State would reimburse
this cost. � . �
Dr. Boudreau stated they would be reimbursed for whatever percentage the State
sets. '
�
18l
REGULAR MEETING OF JUNE 4> 1979 PAGE 9
Councilman Fitzpatrick felt if the service could be continued, within the budget,
it is one that is a direct service to the people which they are aware of and
perhaps grown to expect and felt they would see quite an adverse reaction, if
the service wasn't provided. �
Dr. Boudreau stated he can only say they would make every attempt to stay within
the allocated monies, whichever way the Council decides to proceed. He stated,�
havever, they cannot predict how mar4y haulings they would have.
Councilman Barnette indicated he would like to see the City staying with the
same procedure of hauling away the diseased wood and reviewing the costs. If
�, it is found these costs are excessive, then they cauld get some publicity
to the public to indicate the procedure woutd be changed.
�'
�_ �
Mr. Qureshi pointed out that the CETA program was cut back and the aid fran the
State was also cut�for this program.
Cauncilman Barnette felt there wasn't any question, however, that there would
be fewer trees to remove. Ne indicated he would feel more comfortable in
providing the service of hauling away the diseased wood, at least for this year,
and then taking another look at it next year.
MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to continue the policy of.hauling the diseased
wood free. Seconded by Councilman Barnette. �
Councilman Schneider thought perhaps an amendment should be made to the motion
that if, at some point it looks.like the costs would be exceeding the budget,
it should be.brought back to Council for consideration. .
Councilman fitzpatrick stated he recognizes there may be a problem, but felt
this can be done whether or not it is an amendment to this motion.
UP�N A VOICE VOTE TAKEN ON THE ABOUE MOTION, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared
the motion carried unanimously.
MOTION by Councilman Schneider to adopt Resolution No. 79-1979. Seconded by

RESOLUTION N0. 80-1979 DRDERING IMPROVEMENT AN� FINAL PLANS AND SPECIFICATIDNS AND
ESTIMATES OF COSTS THEREOF: STREET IMPROVEMENT PROJECT ST. 1979-1, ADDEPlDUM �1:
MOTION by Councilwoman Moses to adopt Resolution No. 80-1979. Seconded by
Councilman Schneider.� Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, hlayor Nee declared
the motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Sobiech, Public Works Director, stated that Minnesota Statutes Chapter
429.041, Subdivision 4, Paragraph 3, permits the Council to "contract at one
. time on a unit price basis for part or all of the street i�rovements to be
constructed by the municipality during the current year, including improvements
�� which may thereafter be ordered constructed".
Mr. SobSech stated the above statute would then provide that the City can
� have another separate contract with N. D. H., Inc., at the same unit price, without
bids.
Mdyor Nee asked staff if they were convinced the prices are better then if they
went back out for bids. � �
182
REGULAR MEETING OF JUNE 4, 1979
PA6E 10
Mr. Sobiech stated both concrete and oil have all gone up approximately 25 to
3D% since this bid. '
Mr. Herrick felt> if the property owner is agreea6le to this, in writing, and
waives �the requirement for public bid, on one would have the right to object. He
thought that perhaps in the future the resolution should be structured to incor-
porate this item. �
Mr. Herrick also questioned if this was agreeabte to the contractor and Mr. Sobiech
stated it was and that he has signed the contracts.
Ptr. Herrick stated, if the Council so wishes, they could then proceed with adoption
of the resolution and authorization for these improvements utilizing the same
unit costs as agreed to in the existing contract, in accordance with Ptinnesota
Statutes Chapter 429.041, Subdivision 4, Paragraph 3.

Me. Schnabel. stnted that the diacucaion start•in� on pa�{e 4 oP Lhe minutes centered
on the item that hnd been before the Plnnnin,n, Commircion previously. The item �rAs
n requeet by Alvf.n NitscheY.e, 6661 t;nin Str.eet� to rezone his property. It came
to Appeala with n vuriance requect. She stated thot she was quite shocked wheu
she went over und looked at trs. tiit�cl�eke's property becauce she did not renlize
from tl�e Planning Commiseion minutes 1:hat 1:here uas A multiple use on triis piece
oP property. She did not know if the Planning Cormnicsioners had looked at the
property, but it didn't come out in i;he minutes, and it bothered her tremendously.
Mr. Oquist aeked what she meant by n multiple use.
Ms: SchnabeZ stated there was a corrunercfal use in the garage. PAr�C oP the garage
was converted ini;o a State Farm Insurance Office. So it is a commercial use of'
the property as vell as being a tri-plex. The commercial use is an open violation
of our zoning cale, but that was not 1;he question that the discussion centered
around. As you can tell £rom the list of questions at the enfl of the minutes, they
had a lot oP questions concerning this piece oP property and others that will come
up like it. They were not zeroing in on this piece of property per se, other than
it has brought to their attention many questions concerning den�ity, l�ow the City
would like to see propexty reclnssified in the future, lot si'zes with re�ards to
tt�ese types of requests and a loti oP other questions i;hey felt should be discussed
before tl�e Board of Appeals made a decicion on this p�z:ticular requect. 9he assumed
that the corrunissioners had read the minutes an3 either k:ad questions of tbeir own
or some answers to the Appeal's questions. She felt they l�ad some problems with the
cusrent zonin� ordinance and they should perhaps add.ress these problems in the new
zoning ordinance as ti�ey rermite it. One of the questions was the number of units.
Do we still want to require a minimu� of 60 units in a ne�a townhouse development?
That is rrhat our code current�y requires. It also requires,5 acres oi land, and so
roany �quare feet per unit comes down to 60 uni•ts us a minimam development for tm.m-
houses. Another question was in regards to existing units. Tf there is un existir�
unit in An R-1 District it reguires more square Poota�e than the same existin� unit
built in an R-3 District. There y�as a discrepancy there in our configurations. Thera
wa[s a discrepancy in ovr zoning ordinance conceruing gara�es. There was one set of
xules for townhouses and auother set of rules for double bungalows. That was not
necessari�y consistent in terms of rental proFerty� yet we see tl�at kind of property
also comin� before them for e reclassification such as this. There wa� n difference
in subletting. If you have u townhouse development in.an R-]. Zone, you cannot sub-
let that property. It must be oWner occupied. The some is not true i£ it is in an
R-3 Zone, yet it could be the same building in both zones. There were a lot of
questions they felt the Planning Coawission should look ut u� sc�e of i;he sub-
canmissions might also want to look at them also. She stated that first of sll they
should tiy to zero in on this purticular type of situni;ion so that the Appeals
Commission could nct upon it. bfaybe the thin6 to qddresa is exiatiag units nnd then
get into new development after that.

a].lo�.r theoe particulnr i:ypea of unita that arc now cxiol;ing Lo be r�old AII 1:vwn-
houoeo. �
Thr. �oardmun ctated that nt the Appeal'r� meetin� he twd brouQht up the questivn
of dencity und i'eli: th� Plunning Commi�aion chould diccuso it alco. rirat oY all�
thc utai'£ clicciced with other Cor.ununitles to find out how thcy were handlin� theee
types of xequeatc becnusc they are Gettin� norc anci more of i;hem. A majorii:y oY
the com�nunitics contacted felt t1�at if� in the rr.ietin¢ properties tlie deneities
8on�i: chant,e� the type of ownership didn't reall,y matter. The thinge they shov].d
Iook at are the thin�s that would be ccrrunon or �rould require un a6reement Uetween
ownerc� rather than looking at Hhether they are goin� to allow it or how they're
�oing �o split it. Re�ardl.ess oP What �Lhey do� they would still be looking ai; tihe
came density oP livin� units.
Mr. iTArris stated that tiras 1;rue, but control vraa a different thing.- In this parti-
cular case, in�tead of one cn�mer to deal with, rre �rould dealing wii;h a coirmittee.
t�. I3oaz^dman stated they r!ould :�ave to deal with three individual oomerc.
l�ir. Harris stated that the ordinance requires in tormhouses some sort oP a n:ana�e�ent
organization to tal:e care of the brounds and so £ort'h.
Mr. IIoardman si:ated that he sees no difference legally in this situation tl�an in a
one ownexship situation. ,
t� ,. SclviabL�l ctated she did not agree entirely. If he was ta.11cing about 211 apsrt-
ment co:aplex convertirg to a condo:ninium, she could see that arran�ement itt a
different light than a s!nall isolatied unit like tha't because ar. �partment c a.pler
that goes condominium generally� has an area of land that has been pore s�ecii3.cally
developed to that type oi' multiple existience. It has cornwou �iounds� parlcinb sptaces
avd n uumber of thin�s that nre �ore geared to�aards that type oP density nn3 the
interna]. aspect of whether it is one-perspn rnaned or multiple-o.aied in i;lie condom-
inium sense doecn't necessari]y alter that as much as an isolated buildin� does.
She �ees ra difference Uet�+een e sin�le f'ree-standing uni't like this and a larger
complex develonment. •
Mr. IIoardmsn stated i;hat he agreed there was a diYference. He felt i;hey should
look at dePiuitions of the different type� o£ units which they never k�ad in the
code. A deffn3tion of a condoninium refer� to o�anership of an apartmeut. It
means privnte ownerehip of an qpartment witiii no land involved. A townhouse is
privnte ownership of the propertv eith just the property under the building as
pwnership. A patio Lorr:e is �enerally classified as fran one to Sour units set
extremely clo,e to othcr units of its t��e which require land ownership more than
just tmderneal;h tl�e unit. Al2ybe they should look nt these definitions and see if
tt�ey are goin�, to allow definitions of this ty�e cnd under whnt zones they would
Ue nllocred in. Firei: �.hey should deal with the e�istin� situution und density hc�s
been brou�;ht up time nnd time ugain. If i;tie densitics are the sanie and Nill remain
the G6NC then wYu3i� difi'ercuce docs it n,nlcc whei�her i1;'s A$OIIIC ownership ty�pe of

PLANP�ING C01hh1ISSI0N MBCTIN�, APRIL 1(3, 1979 - PA�� � '
- - 1F
Mr'. Bouidman ctated that he questioned whether it mude that much dlYference as
long as the denaities remnined i:he eame becauae the purpose of zoning in the first
place is density.
Ma. Schnabel stated thet it struc$ her in reading the minutes that the attempt waa
to reclassii'y it into rrhat is so called the easiest classification to work with.
It seems that someone rorent through i;he code book and took a look at what required
the leas�E amount of variances and came up with the realization that A townhouse
would require the least amount of variances, so they recommended to the petitioner
that he app7y for a townhouse, Naybe thi� piece of property and others like it
would be better oPf with ran R-1 classification even though it requires more
variances than a townhouse cltsssification.
" Mr. Boardman stated he would have some real problems with that beceuse that rrould
vary the density in an R-1, it would vary the lot size in an`R-1, and they would
end up with a 30 foot lot instead of a 40 foot lot which they were not allowing
other people to build in an R-l. He felt there were some real problens o�ith re-
zoning to an R-1 just because they were tryin� i:o control ownership on a piece of
property. He did not see where there was a problem in trying to control owner�hip.
� Whether they had ownership or rental in a situation like this he did not see any
problem because the density wes set for R-3 and it was being developed for R-3.
The reASOnin� behind the to•�mhou�e definition of it wes because thFy had no other
dePinition that would allow this type of split ownership whei^e they had houses
butting ri.ght up next to each other.
Ms. Schnabel referred back to the question of owner �ccupie3 dF:ellings� becaune
this was one of •the key points in this issue. The selling point was that if it
became a townhouse it woul.d be okmer occupied and as a result ttiere��would be more
pride in the property; the dwelZing would be kept up Uetter, etc. Sbe steted that
was not required under our co3e. If that was an R-1 zone it must be owner occupied.
In an R-3 zone, which this is, it does not have to be owner,occupied. So a person
could ca.ne in an biqr one o£ those units and turn�around and sublet it.
bfr. Boardman stated he would question that because if they require owner occupied
in this in an R-1 zone yet they don't require owner occupied in an R-1 �one in e.
residential area for a single family nouse. He questioued the reasoning behind
that. �
Ma. Schnsbel stated that she agreed with Mr. Boardmaza but that's the wqy the current
code book reads. Sbe brought it up because she felt it wos important for them to
discuss it and underctand it so that when they do rewrite the code they would huve
a better idea of where they are going and what they want to say.
Mr. Boardman stated he un3erstood that but felt thst going to ttn R-1 zone and then
bringin6 variances to allo�a this would be opening them up for other areas such as
$0 foot' lots or 50 foot lots being cplit into tcro ownership units and dividing tbe
40 or 50 foot lot into two 20 or 25 £oot lo{;s as lon�, as they had 3,000 square Soot.
They would run into real.problems with that whereas if they look nt exi�ting pro-
perties and allow existing praperties by density nnd then set up some controls on
nex property such as a patio home development� as least they could handle the

exiating propert�iea baned on density and look aC ideals for di�nsicy on tihe new units.
He felt the whole ic3ue came dorm to the fact thmt the zoning ic based on dencity.
They were trying i:o protect o certain deneity within an area and there were other
thin�s that enLered into thAt such as setbACY.s And thoee types of thi.x�gs which
esi;ablish stondards withi.n an area. Thosc ctandardc axe set based on a dencity.
Mr. ftarris asked if this wa3 zoned R-3.
Mr. Boardman stated that was correct.
Mr. Harris asked ii in a townhouse association the lands were held in coicmon.
N�'. Boardman stated that in some situations they were but in thic case it would not
be that way. In this case� the way it's set up, the lot linec were bein� divided
all the way throu�h the lot so each unit kias a separate yard�area.
Mr, Iiarris stated that bothered hi.m.
Mr. Boardm.an stated that each of the units Would be respon�ible for the maintainence
• and upkeep of their yard area.
Y✓x� Oqui�t asked why that bothered Air. Harris. It's no diSferent from a aingle
ramily private dwelling.
Mr. ffarris stated they should look at ��hat could hapren. If they split it up into
three parcels� he assumed ther•e would then be three di�ferent tax state�ents, three
different o.*ater reters and three different gas meters.
Mr. IIoardman si:ated ti�at would depend on how the. utilities were set up. In this
case there might have to be a common utility agreement. He was not sw'"e what the
situation was on that. , .
Mr. Harris asked tdr. Nitscheke if he had one water meter or three.
Mr. Nitscheke stated that he had one water meter.
Mr. Harris etated that if they in fact split it into three ownerships, they should
have three different water meters.
Mr. Boardm�n stated they would be looking at that or comparAble agreements for the
use of the utility.
Mr. fiarris stated the problem was that if soc�eone didn't p�y their bill� what would
they do7 7Ls'n tt�e water off on the other twoT
Mr. Nitscheke asked what they did in townhousesl
Mr. Narris stated tluit townhouses were u sepArate deal because that was held in
c�omon by the association.
Mr. Boardm�n stated that in a towi�house� the lsnds were"held in common� but the
utilities were separate for.each unit.

Mr. Iiurris atated that then if they did divide it.into three parcelo they would
have to have three tax etatementa.
Mr. BonrBr.wn i�;reed and atated thcy would also luave to have prefer�b]y three water
and eewer hook-ups. Eut it mqy noL work that way. They might heve to have some
kind of agreement with even the potentiality of havin� a sewcr und water fund
availAble for repairs and that type of thing in Which those people would hrsve to
put money in eccrow. • .
Mr. fiarris stated L-hat essentially then they were talking about getting to an
associc�tion type_setup for sor�e of those things. If certain repairs were needed on
the bullding� li3ce the xoof, '�ow would they i�andle ii: if all three parties didn't
agree on the need for repairs? •
P11r. IIoardmaxi stated we wouldn't handle that, it would be up to the people. .
Mr. Harris stuted they were putting themselves into a very strange situation.
Mr. Boardman stuted it was the sase situation in a townhouse where they had ei�ht
units side by side. He didn�t understand Mr. Harris's point.
Ms. Schnabel steted that she was not too hung up on that and that's a problem
those people would have to worry about and hopefuily they wouid hire attorneyr,
to handle that.
N,r. Iiarris stated they would be creating the situation. He Frould be nere com-
fortable with this proposal if they handled this particular piece of property
just like they handled their other properties. Instead oP splitting it up into
i:hree seporate lots, they chould have the people form an aesociation and the
association would be responsible for the exterior of the property.
Mr. IIoardman stated that what he was saying thexx �ras they should se11 the land only
under the building simiTar to a townhouse.
Mr. Harris stated that was correct and he would feel more comiortable. He stated
they cou13 be putti:� themselves in a box �ri.th the 40 foot lot business by doing
scnnething like this. Bec�zuse we would be creating small lots that are substandard
lots.
Mr. Oquist stated that theee units were joined together by co�on walls� they were
not individual lots and individual buildings. It's like a zero lot line.
Ms. Schnabel stated they could not know what would develop in the future ff they
did develop this into three individual substandard lots. One point brought up was
that if you had two ndjacent 40 foot lots and sameone came end he and the other
owner wanted to teur down the dwellings on the adjacent ��0 foot lots and put two
buildings to�ether with a zero lot line. One on one �+0 foot und one on the udjacent
40 foot� would 'we permit that. , '
Mr. Oquist eaked xhat was rrrong with that.
• PLAPdNING COP.TIISSION I+Q�TTING APStIL 1H� lg(9 - rncE 7
lI
Ate. Schnnbel stated there might be nothing �mong r�ith it� and it'a very similar
'Eo what� s hsppen9.n�; here.
Mr. Iiarri� atated there was nothin�5 �+rong with i:h4t iY they allow conatruction
on 40 foo� lots and it has been City policy to not do i�hat. '
tfir. Oquist stated i�hat i;hen the assiwiption Ms. Schnabel made was not va7.id.
Ms. Schnabel stated i;here was another exemple that had been brought up. What if
someone owned two structures on two separate lots and they decided that� since
we were ellowing tri-plexes to be m.ade into to�.mhou�es� assumin� that's what we
do� why.don't thcy build a buildir.� in the center nn3 attpch the two tnat are
separated uow by the buildin�; in the center. And say tho�e are each on 40 i'oot
lots which would maY.e an F30 foot �.idth. Alow tiiey would have a ner� structure that
s�traddies the middle co then why not �o through and separate these �ind rasl:e three
separate lots out of them. It becomes very complicated. As land bec�es more
valuable� these are the opti.ons.
Mr. Hazris stated he was not too concerned rabout whether .they allow this or not
but �ore the way in which it is done. If we split this up into three separate
sections� we would be dealin� with three different people as far as the exterior
of the building.
Nm. Oquist As}:ed. what they were doing with a double bungalow with two owners.
Ms. �cku�abel stated that by definit3on they can't turn a double bungalo�r into a
townhouse.
Mr. Boardman stated they were getting requests to a21ow two ownars in a double
bungalow and they should discuss that also. One of the problemU we have is our
definitions.
Mr. Oqui:st stated that one definition they have not talked about is tri-plexes or
row hou�es.
Mr. I3oarciman stated that the situation they had wns by definition of some of the
current projects is tangible. It's a home that has more of an ownership than just
under the buildin� itself. St has n land awnership that is bronner than just L'he
building. A townhouse definition is the land under the building is the ownership
and the rest of the property is comcion property. In a condominium� just the unit
is owneci with co�on ownership in the facility. We hnve problems in here because
our townhouse definition does not �ay that. It does not say ownership just under
the building. Ns. Basrdmtan read the townl�ouse deYinition as follo�vs: "Structures
housing tliree or more dwelling units� continous to each other, onl,y by the sharin�
of one common Nall, such structures to be of tiie town or row house typs as contrusted
to multiple dwellii� apartment structures. No sin�le structure shall contain in
excese of ei�ht (8) dwelling units nnd each dwelling unit shall have separnte
and individusl front and rear entrunces." .
NIr. Harris stated they don't even allude to the amount of property.
Me. Schnabel stated that it did addres� tnat loter on in the ca1e.
PLANNIF�; COMMZ^SION MEETING, AYRTL � 1979 �- PAGE 8-
� ,
Mr. I3oardmr�n read from the Specicl Requirementa in the code book us follcnrs:
"Any and all conur,on open spacs shall be labeled as euch". Tt doeen�t eay that
ar�y property under the building hac to be corumon or open space. He continued
reading "and aa to its i.ntent or designed function and provisione for maintenance
ownership, and preservation shall Ue rrsqde in accord�nce with the proviaiona of
the "Ap�rtment Ownership Act" .., c�nd it chal2 include al]. proposed covenants�
restrlctions and easements to run wi.th the land together with ur�y provisions for
release f'rom same; provision3 Yor dedication of easement for public streets ...
modified s3 deemed necess�ary by the City Council. .. the development in R-1
shall consist of owner occupied units ... and memberehip in the townhouse develop-
rient sha21 be made e pcxrL of the agreement of the sale of the dwelling unit."
Nowhere in the classification of townhouses do they talk about whether that owner-
ship has to be just the o.mer�hip under the UuiZding and aqy and all oaanership of
the out^,ide lands as u comn;on ownership. So based on our de2'inition of what a
townhouse is this would al.so f'all under our definition of .a toknhouse. The only
differcnce is that we�ve got i;l�e 3�000 square feet which is a requirement for.an
R-3� they've got the front and rear entrances which is a requirement, but the only
difierence is that it sAys that every townhouce plat has to l�ave five racres. That's
wY{y they need a variance.
Mr. Oquist asked if a townhouse required an association.
Mr. Boardman stated it does not require that. If there is canmon ownership of Any
of the utilities or property, then there hAS to be An association to govern those
things as deened.necessary by the Cii;y Council. He stated i;hey could have a town-
house development without co�on cwnership. That�s the way he reads it.
Ms. Schnabel stated that under the P'inal Plan, a copy oY the bylaws of the proposed
association of owners is required.
Mr. Boardman stated he understoai that to mean only if there was an association.
If there isn�t coramon ac�mersliip then they don't need an association. The way the
present co3e for townhouses is layed out, ii; dcesn't say they have to have co�non
owuer�hip of property. • , '
Ms. Schnabel stAted that we should put that in our new zoning co3e.
Mr. Treuenfels stated that he understoo3 that some of the utilities in this case,
especial]y the �.ater, was served through a co�on meter, so this would require an
association and bylaws.
Mr. Boardman stated that he was not sqying they would not need an agreement in
this particular cose. They wou2d have to have agreements £or ucage of that water
and o£ how they would pay for that wr�ter and the agreements would Yzive to be filed
with the deed when a�ybody purct�ased into that property. All the code ceys is tl�at
it must be submitted with the plan for review with the City Council and the Council
can modify it if they cho�e. But it doesn't ssy they have to have common ownersl�ip
oY land and it doesn't say that this is not a toz�'nhouse because it fits the town-
house definition. It says a townhouse can be built in nn R-3 zone and the on]y
requirement it doesn't meet is the 5 acre pArcel. �

Mr. Iiarrls stated thtit then they have to f5et back to son�e baeic philo:,ophy. Are
we �oing to allow 1;his particular type of activity? And also �re we �oin� to
allow the individtwl os�nership of n douUle? If we agree 1:o allaw it wii:h a tri-
pler. 1,hen it tollows tYuit we should allow it erith a double bungalow.
2ds. Schnabel stated that this ia where we get- into the question of denaity. Frhat
type of density do xe want on a multiple living building. ,
Mr. Harris stated there �auuld be no problem with 4 row house but if it's a multiple
ctory lilce a duplex there cauld be o problem.
N�r. Boardman stai:ed that in order to qualif� as a townhouse, there cannot be one
unit on top of another. So in tY:at situation, we wotildn't be able to allou a
split or we vrould have to split it ur,der a condominium tyPe situation, or a co- .
operative type of �ituation� which is :�iaiilar to a condominium. The probler� is
that the er.isti.np density is there aad do we allow that dencity to contir.ue2 We
may have to allow that density to continue b�cause it'� er,icting. Whst kinds oY
proble�s would we have i1' xe go to ownership on those density or if we don't �o
to oFmership on the density? He doesn�t see any problems other than 'le�;al proble�:s
and those legal problems are the problems o�' the people who buy into it.
Mr. Oquist asked.if we as a City should be concerned about the welfare of owners.
Mr. Hc;r.ris stated that as far as general health and safety goes, ye�.
Mr. Oquisi� stated that he meant should the City be concerned if the owners cannot
a�ree on rep�irs or liiuds of siding� etc.?
Mr. Harris stated that in a k�ay ke should because right now we require a license
for this particular unit and it's controlled by the maintenance ordinance. 47e are
sup�osed to make incpections of the unit. So, becauce it's rental property� tuere
are some basic things we can do to keep a hE�le on it._ If we go to this particular
type of operation, we don't have that control.
Mr. BoArdm�n state3 that are s.e saying then that we like rental prop°rty because of
more control over rental property and therefore should we rent out all our sin�le
family homes because the ordinance stei;es that in order to rent a single ftunily unit
a license is neededY With the license we can control the upkeep of sin�le farai�Y
units. Do we want that control?
Mr. Aarris stated that his point was if they were sold as iudividusl uuits� then
the City does noi� require a license. If there was an sa�aciAtion� he felt the
properi;y stoal a better chance of staying in goal condii;ion than if it was just
three eenurate parcels. He trould ieel better aboui� au association as far as tha
groundt+ l�eld in couunon.
Mr. IIoeiYlman statad that he felt there should be some common agreement between the
property owner� for malntenAnce of the structure, etc. if there was common owner-
ship of the property. However, the wtxy it's platted there would be no common owner-
ship.
Mr. Oquist etated there wae common ownership because there rras a common c+all between
the unita.

Mr. Boardmrin atated tlwt thex•e were no common wnlls, there were double wallc whic:i�
is a requirement of Lrnmhoueea. It ic alco a requirement of owner occupied unit�.
He explained that there were two serie� of studs with a common space between those
studa. The reason for ttwt ie legal. If one owner causea damage to A o�all, it,
is his responsibility to repair that damage. `!'he Building C ale requixes two
separai�e stud wr�lls between two owner occupicd units.
Mr. Oqui�t stated that was �a contradiction because i:here wac another place in here
th[st required they share a cocmnon wall. IL- wns in the tocmhouse definition. There-
Yore we do not have iownhouses in Pridley because they do not share a comnon wall.
Mr. Boardman stated that rental units cuch aa apartments do not require double
walls, pwner occupied units do require douUle tralls.
Mr. Oqui.st.asked if in this case there were double wAlls.
Mr. Boardman stated that was correct.
Mr. Setu�abel stated that iP Mr. Nitscheke didn�t live there� then he wouldn't of
had to put up double walls. This points up discrepancies in the zonin� o:dinance
that we ahould review. She asked.what kind of walls s double bungalo�a would hAVe.
tQr. Iic�rris statEd double bungalows were rental units� therefore they did not require
double walls.
Mr..Haxris atated that we cann't go throu�h and plat this bec�use it doesn°�L ial2
vrithin t:�e �uidelines of our platting ordinance for mi.nimum 1ot cize.
Mr. Boardn�n stated that the on�y thing it says is that a i�ownhouce must havt
3�000 cquare Peet.
Mr. Harris stated that no matter what they ca11 them, they are malting three separate
parcels out of a piece of ground whether it's R-1, R_2 or R-3 that's a0 feet wide
and lA0 feet deep. Essentially they are cutting 80 feet into three pieces.
Mr. Boardman asked if that wasn�t what they do in a to•anhouse plan.
hir. Harris stated those were coamion grounds. Whst we're doing is plattin� sub-
standard lots. If something happevs to the structure, we are left r�itl� a parcel
of ground zoned R-3 with less than 30 foot lots.
Ms. Schnabel stated that the Planning Comwission had already approved the preliainary
plat on this.
Mr. Harris stated i;hey may have made a mistake. I£ they go ahead and do this tbey
Would be jeopardizing the �+0 foot lot deal.

�Mr..Boardman stated they r�ould hnve ta decide on ho*a to handle the issue. 1�
Mr. Harrie stqted that if they do it according to the townhouse ordinAnce� and
they qre callin� this a tpwnhouse� they could sray that oll tl�ey were bt�ying is
the lqnd under the townhouse and thc rest of the lund would be held in common.
Mr. Board:nan stated that was not e requirement of townhouses.
Mr. Ilarria ctated they could make it a stipulation.
Mr. Boardman stated that our definition �taies strictly what a townhouse buildin� 1s
and in the townHouse area of the Building Code there is no requirenent for owr.erskiip
of the land just under the building.
Ms. Schnabel stated that maybe it was something we could maY.e as a stipulation in
approval of the plat no matter what plat it is.
Mr. Narris stated he felt very uncomfortable that they did it this way. If some-
thing happened to it and i.t was totally or over 50H dest.royed what they have
created is three R-3 lots of r�bout 26 x 135 feet.
Mr. Boardman stated that the mAi.n thing they should do is change the definitions.
The Corr�issioners concurred.
i�'• Boardman asked what they were going to do wi-th condominiwns? What.is our
direction goir� to be for the of�ership for the precious densities which are rental?
Mr. Harris stated they were not changing the density. They woul.d not be doing ar�y-
thing different fron what they were doina now.
Nm. Boardmsn $sked if they uould have a problein with people coming in and ask ta
do this. All they want to do is change the o*.anershipJ not the density.
Mx'. Harrie stuted that was the key point. He wanted to make sure that people �rho
bt�y into this are protected. Also, he wanted to make suxe that �ihe City and the
surrounding residences are protected from the standpoint that the property �.*i11 be
maintained. His third conccrn �;AS with public services. That the City doesn°t
have u problem when they are sold.
Mr. Boardmen stated that then our primary direction would be similar to some of the
other coffinunities. They don't have aqy problem ac lor� as the density doesn't
change and that there are association bylaws that are drawn up and attached to the
deed.
Mr. FIarris stated he would have no problem with that.
Mr. IIoardman stated that the main point would be to get definitions of condominiums�
townhouses and patio homea.
The Comrnissioners sgreed.

FIr. I3oardman ohowed the Co�r�issioners a deaign of a pAtio home. �' r,
Ma. SchnnUel stated che wtas not cure ahe liked the concept of a pntio home in
terms of density.
Mr. Boardmrzn stated tl�ey m�y have to look nt thqt type o£ units based on the
chcjnging pr�tterna of home ownership.
Ms. Schnabel stated that in the new proposed co3e she didn'ir see where they had
spelled out R-2 or R-3 for condominiuz�s.
Mr• Boardnan stated they didn't und tlw t was something they would have to get into.
Ms. Schnsbel stated they shoul.d discuss the 5 acre minimum for townhouses. That
is the question before Appeals in the vnriance request.
Mr. Oquist asked why we had u restriction oP 5 acres,
Ms. Schnabel stated it probaUly came about when land was cheaper and �ore available.
Mr. Boardman stated that they were looking at developmettts lilce the Darrell FArr
Ueve].opnient where ihey have co�rmon recreation area�' etc., and in order to provide
ell the r�menities th�t go along with townhouse living, they felt that 5 acres
was necessary. 3Ie questions tne need for that ai� this point in tine.
Mr. Harris asked to see a copy of the plat the Planning Commission had approved.
Mr. Boardm�n showed the Commissioners a copy of it. He stated tbat if they eranted
to do it like a tocrr?house, tl:ey would hsve to �etur317y plot out 6 parceZc and the
resi with cor�mon ownership.
Mr. Harris stated he felt very uncomfoxtable with the way that plat was.
Mr. Boardman stated that it boiled down to a policy decision.
Mr. Hsrris stated 'ne felt they should plot it into 6 parcels with common ownership
for the rest of it.
Mr. Boardman asked Mr. Nitscheke if he hsd a proLlem with that.
Mr. Nitscheke stated he would not.
Mr, iTarris asked if the attorney had seen this.
N,r. Boardman stated that he had looked at it and ctated he didn�t have any problems
with it as long as it met the requirementa of a townhouse and as long as they got
a variance.
Mr. Oquist stated that the attorney also wanted to review the association by laws.
Mr. Harris stated he would feel much better with it this wqy. .

Ma. Schnabel anked if the Corrr.niaaioners then felt that the 5 acre requirement is
still valid.
Mr. Iiarris statcd that on al]. new construction, yes.
kQr. Oquist si;ated he wasn*t cure he would go alons with that.
Mr. Boardman stnted there were ways to �et around that.
N,r. Harris ctated that they should maybe set up the townhouse ordinance a little
bit difSerent.
Mr. Oquist stated he would liice to eliminate the term 5 ucres and set a certain
percenta�e Por green area.
N,r. Boardm�n stated t�t was alrendy s�id. In an R-1 they are allowed 1 unit for
every 9i000 square feetj in �n R-2 they are allowed 3 unit for every 5�000 square
feet and in an R-3 they Are Allo��ed 1 unit £or every 3,000 square i'eet.
Mr. Qauist stated they could then eliminate the 5 acres, but in an R-1 area ior
single family they have a 25;�„ 1ot.coverage for green axea. Maybe� they should do
somei;hin� like that for townhouses.
Ms. Schnabel aslced �,�hy they said so nany square feet in R-1� so mar� in R2, snd so
many in R-37
Mr. Boardv,an stated that tiie philosophy was tI�at they want to maintain a certain
density.in each zone.
Mr. Leek stated that the philosophy derives basiCalZy £rom the valuec of the
cou�unity.
t�'s. Harris stated that he would Iike them to retain the 5 acres for a townhouse
8evelopment because it has worked fairly well up to no��r. Ae asked Ms. Schnabel
if she needed an cnswer ivaned�ately. He feli: this should be talked about.
tds. Schnabel �tated that if what they have discussed is the direcl:ion they want
to take and if they �;snt to make a pro�osal and vote ori it, she would then take
that bacY, to the Board of App�als and they would act on the request. 7'ney had
tsbled the reguest. If the Plannia� Co�ission felt it needed more discucsion,
m�,ybe they shoul3 table the discu�s?on. She also asked if the Co�unity Development
Commis�ion would be interested in looking at i�t.
Mr. Oquist stated that he felt they would. He felt i;he fir�t eleven questions were
things they should talk about when they discuss the ordinance.
bfs. Schnabel stated that her imprecsion from this discussion was that provided the
pTOposal for replattin� would Ue chai�ged,at the Council level� then philosophically�
the Plannin� Comnission would have no problem with,any tri-plex being converted into
e townhouse clacaification if it frtllc into the townhouse guidelines discussed here.
In other words ca-�won property and individual property owpersliip.

M'r. pquiat ststed he would like to clarify one point. When we talk about coimnon
property� it is the land left over. The aasociution would be resnoneible for '
mr�intenance of the common property ¢nd the buildins maintenr.nce.. `i'ha1: would be
paxt of the by laws.
Ms. Schnabel stnl;ed ttu�t then shc� understoal i;ha'� they hnd no problem with converting
tri-plexes such as this to townhouses provided i;he Iot si.ze reroains Qenerally coimnon
property with the land under the build3na havin6 individual ownership ctnd as long
as the density doern't change. She could take this Uack to the Appeals Co�ission
and felt tlw t the rest of theee questiong should be di�eussed along with duplexes
And double Uungalows. They had also touched on Lhe parY. and open space situation.
If the density isn't �roing to change, i:hat would not make or�y di£ference. She
said they had also discusced takin�� tor exarr�le� the strip of land across the
street from Mr. Nitscheke's property, which is currently zoned industrial.� and re-
zoning it R-3 and a series of townhouses were put on the property. It would be
less than a 5 acre site, but would be compatible with the neighborhood. Would
they like to see soraething like that done?
tdr. Harris stated he would like to think about that.
Ms. Schnabel stated that another thin� they had discu�sed was the number of �arages.
She understood that there was no requirement for number of garages in a townhouse .
developrent, but there is a garage requirement for duplexes� double bungalows�
apartments and si�gl.e family.
N�r. Boardman sttzted i;here �aere no requirements for apartnents. Thet �ras parlcixig
spaces. -
Mr. Y.Farris stated they shoul.d add:ess that in the townhouse ordinance.
Ms. Schnabel stated that there should be something in the minutes to indicate iY
they have had a chan�e of mind on the re-plat.
Mr. Boardnan stated thr�t cince Planning had already responded to the initial plat,
they could say it's an indication of the Planning Coimnission that the policy for
convertin� this type of unit must be similar to a townhouse area 4�hich would require
co�mnon open space pinns and that they reconneend.that these type of situstions be
considered in the re_rrriting of the ordinance for policy direction and in the mean
time the Appesls Cormnission could_act on the varisnce with those conditions.
Ms. Schnabel stated that Appeals had no power over the r.e-plat.
Mr. Boardman agreed and stated that should be included with the platting. He felt
there shouj.d be an indication to the City Council that this should be looked at
by separate ownership under the units with common ownership of property and they
should mAke a recommendation to Council that the plat should be maiified to reYlect
that.
Ms. Schnabel suggested that the Appeals approve the variance with the stipulation
that Plunning reconsider the replat.

CR-2 incluczed son:e limiied �enerel business c�nd manufacturing, It would fit the
petitioner'� wishes better i.f it were CR-1 which is strict]y office complex And
t�ould be limite3 to dentists, rea?_ esl;ate offices and thiug� of tl�qt riAtUT'e. Also�
there are diiferent setback requiresents for CR-1 and CR-2 and the petitioner's

in CR-1 and F�0 feet in CR-<^ aiid tl�e rear yard requirements ir.crease from 25 £eet
to 40 feet. If they c��reed to A CR-l� they �roul.d have. to increase the setbrxck of

a CR-1 requires l22 etalls for this cqvnre fo�tr�ge office building. Some
con�idexai:ion ehould be �{iven to reducin�5 the nuwUer of p�rking stAlls paved
'to tien or even 20 per cent over so there woiil.d be more �reen areA between tho
office structure and tkie R-1 aurroundinU it. To the south of i;his aret� is
property zoned R-2 and ic presently bein� used as R-3• The reason for that is
the zonin6 changes made betwecn the time the buildings were built as apArtment
hpuses and rrhereby we couldn't build apari;rnents in R-2 after a certain date. So
the area to the south is R-2 bein� used As R-3 and to the north is R-1 and to
the eact alon� Delwoal i� R-1. Tbis particular property rras originally zoned
R-1 and aUout 10 years a�o was r.ezoned to R-3• `T'ne Commi��ioners should'be aware
tku�t this �+oul.d be spot zoning and wouJ.d not increase the size of an adjacent
zone. It Frould_be nn office structure in the middle o? residential� R-3 to the
couth and R-1 to the north.
pQr. Harris noted that 1:here was a Petiti.on in the a�enda on page 1+l+ signed by
12 people steting they had no objection to this construc�tion.
hi0TI0N l�y A1r. O�uist� secor.ded by h1r. Treuenfels� to receive the �etition which
reads as iollcr,rs: "Yte� the undersigned� have no objectiou to the constructioa
of a 2�500 square foot� one story, office buildin� on the pxoperty accordin�
to.'the le�al descripti.on attached".
�ir. I3arris read the pel;ition to the audience. He stated that he had also received
a letter frora P�'. nnd b1r.s. Ray and Gladys l;nderson and also i'rom Nr. and D7rs. Zu3wig

I�ir. Harris stated there iras no petition in opposition in the records.
Ms. Schnabel asked Nm. Clark if the Staff's feeling was that the request for rezonin�
was in the wrong classificationY •
Mr. Clark stated that Staff felt it would better fit the CR-1 classification. If
it is going to be rezoned CR-1 �rould be more appropriate tl�an CR-2. Ae noted that
the Commissioners could xecornmend a lesser zoning that is more restrictive.
Ms. Schnabel asked wlv�t the purpose of the park fee noted on page 39 of the agenda?
Mr. Clark stated this probably didn't app7y to this petition nnd was the second
pa�e of a petition for a lot of different thin�s, one of which is platting.
Mr. William Hart� 6141 Rainbow Drive, stated that he would be agreeable to a CR-1
zone and apparently �aisunderstoal when he requested the CR-2. He felt that the
office building would Ulend in with the residential and he would be willing to
put in a fence if they want. Wlzen he talked to the people around there, he felt
they would lilce an office building rather tl�an an apartment Uuilding there.
Dir. Nozv�an Shuldliuis came Porti.ard and stated he owned the apartment building on
the next corner. He was concerued about the traific on the service road with an
office building there.
PI�ANNING CONA1i.;SIOfi t�:IsTINC, hIAY 23� 1979 PAG��
Mr. Clark stated ths�t the service drive wou].d serve thio building. The difference
in the amount of trAfi'1c �aould depend on the kinds o£ of£ices. 'Phere could Ue
an increaoe in traffic from r� coma;ercial office building over an apartment houee�
however, an apartment houce eould have two car �rnrages and probab]y two to four
trips a day Por those also. IIe stated that a professioru�l type office building
should not be a big trsftie generator.
Mr. Harris stated the buildin� would be 2500 square feet and asked how ma�y offices
they were talkin� about7
23
Mr. Hart stated there wou.ld be one office for them of 1000 square feet and 1500
square feet for the other office. They did not have a tenant as yet. He stated
that his busines, would generate very little trafPic. They have four a�ents and
one girl and usually they are not all in at the same tine. In the insurance
business they do not have a lot of people comin� to the office. Most of the business
is over the phone.
Mr. Clark stated that the occupant load for that structure aceording io i;he buildin{,
code is 25 people, includ9.ng office staff and visitors.
Mr. Ru�sell Burris� 1150 T�iississippi Street IQ.E.� came forward and stated that he
had a petition in opposition which st�ted that spot zonir�; of this type is undesirable
because it would Ue placing a commercial property adjacent to a residential property.
The second point Fras t2�at ideal zoning should provide e proper bufSer between
residential and co�r,ercial and the location i� not condusive to such a plan. Access
'L'o tk�e property is not suitable due to i�proper road faczli$ies� heavy trai'iic and
the tact that traffic woutd have to go past apartment buil.dings with parked car:,
and people coming in and out of their apaxtments and creating potential hazards
as well as con�estion. Commercial traffic through the area would fvrther con�pouud
the serious problem of fatal accidents already occuring too frequent]y in this
area particularJ,y at the intersections of Highway ;�{55 and 64th Avenue and Hi�hway
�65 and A:ississippi Street. The foarth point was that there was already an abundance
of eom�nercial property undeveloped in the City oP Fridley while the propertg� for
residential use has been almost all developed. This would not ease the housin�
shortage. hir, Burris �ave the petition to the Commissionars.

Ms, Hughes noted there were about �tfl signatures on the petition.

Mr. Clarence A. Timo� 6517 Lucia Lane NE� came forward and stated he was concerned
about these requests for rezoning because it wac destroying the neighborhood concept.
There is not enough reaident3al property left to develop. Eie understood that about
100� of the re�idential property was developed but about 2�3rds of i:he commercial
property is undeveloped. He was concerned about if the business failed and the
property was unused it iaould become an eyesore. ile would like them to stay with
the planning i;hnt was set up years a�o. If they allow it here, they Nould be
setting A precedeut for other �reas of the City. Iie stated that he had helped
get Lhe signatures on the petition And when he ta]lced to'people he found that some
oF them tl�ought that the area was nlready corw:ercial and Lhere was nothin�r they
Could do ar�yway. Fie ini'ormed tticui it wus uot zoned commercial. plso� once they

Ms. Hu�;hes agreed there was no real choice between tlxese two usec whether it wac
CR-2 or CR-1 or R-3 in terms of traffic. She was opposed to Lhe kind of spot
zonin� that this represents� particularly in this area which has manaaed to �tay
residenCial under some he�ivy threats Uecause they are so close to Ai.Qhv�ay �/65 and
Mississippi. Because of the historic na'�ure of the rezon:ing reque�ts on the north
eas'E corner of Si�rhway J%f5 and Mississippi and �rhat has happened to them� she Selt
they would be very rerni.cs i.n Frnntirag this kind of zoning, Unless the discussion

A1r. Treuenfels stated he had received m�terial irom ti�e City Attorney which stated
that in order to resone� it should exercise masonable furtherance of the public
health� saf'ety and welfare and also the Conprehensive Developnent Plan states on
pa�e 2 that there is a need for 2300 new houses and not enough residential. land
exists to accomodate that. On this basis� he would not be in favor of rezoning
re�idential land to comiaercial.
Mr. Harris noted thai� the Comprehensive Plan had not yet been adopted by �che City.

Ms. Schnabel asked if he could �rithdraw it before it goes to Council so he �,ould

Mr. Clark felt he could do that.
Nm. Oquist asked what would happen if zae vote to deny it and he withdraws the

OI'�N AT 8:30 P.2d.
Mr. Boardman stated •tha{; this property was located in the floal plain and that
wns the reason for the S�ecial Use Permit. It is on a 50 foot 1ot orith a house
to the north an3 a house to the south. They put together a drainage plan which
is shown on r�age 50 of the agenda. It is a little Uit dif£erent from other
homes in that area primarily because the house would be built on stilts. It
woitld be built so that the first Tevel o£ the hcuse would be above the i'loal
plain. The draina�e plan they have developed catch°s the water from the north,
drains it bacic around the gar�ge area z.nd. d.rains it out to�.ard, the s-treet� on
the south side of t2�e lot. Prom 1ook9n� a't t�h° p7.ans ar.d the drai.nage plan it
appears that it matches �aell with tiie adjacent prope.rty anct 'c?�° pilin�s would
minimi.ze tlie effect oi flooding on the floors and that tyFs of thing. They
elininated a lot of tlze probleies they �aould normal],y have if the built a normal
type of structuxe. ... a•
_ . , f _ _ _..,..>- :i .. . The drainage
would he handled within the lot i�tself. Because•the _�-oi�er level would be raised
above the flood plain and because oi the situation of tk:e floor and the adverse
effect a flood would have for expansion, they could eliminate the 15 foot o£ level
fill on the sides. Therefore they wouldn't have to worry about the overPlow'onto
the neighbor's proparty
Ms: Hughes stated she didn't understand the 15 foot of le��el fill.
Nfr. $oardman stated that in a flood plain they have to have the fill at 2 feet
above the floai leeel and that fill has to be at a 15 ioo,; distance £rom all sides
of the house. -The reason for ihat is tl�e more land there i;he less water pressure
on the floor. So this would be a different way of looki.ng at it. He noted that
the Planning Cocnnission had requested a moratorium on building in the floal plain
area� but the Counci7. has not yet declnred tt moratorium. They had asked that the
Planning Corrm�ission study it further. He also noted that sexer and water would
be Av�ilable.

Mr. Scarric atAted that he was not sure ebout the drnina({e.
Mr. Borardman stated that DicY. Sobiecl� had revier�ed it.
Mr. Fiarris stnted that the utatement was made tha1; the drAina¢e would be handled
within the confines of i;he lot. Iie questioned what would happen to it from there?
Mr. floardrr�n stated thnt it would go into i:he street. The arrows on the p1An
indicated the water flows. -
Ms. uchnabel stated that the e]_evations circled are the proposed elevationc And
the ones not circled are the existing elevations.
N1r. Boardman stated that when he looked at it he had some problems also.
Mr. FIarris stated that the drop r�as so gradual that he questioned it. He asked
if Mr, Sobiech was convinced this would handle the draina�e.
2F
Mr. Boardman s'tated that he r.eviewed the drainage plan and if that plan was completed
as designed, Che drainage should work.
Mr. Oquist stated that it r�as interestin� that the existin� elevation was 8?_3.7
and the proposed elevation was 523.6. That's about a tenth oS a f'oot� or a little
over an i.nch.
D4s. Sclinabel stated that the statement was made at the Appeals Cormnission that
the Staff Report for the Special Use Permit ��ou1d stata that the �round under the
house should be at 823. She didu't find that in the Special Use application.
Mr. Boardman stated that the first floor of the house has to be raised to 826.i.
That is the firct floor elevation of the l�ouse.
Ms. Schnabel stated they �vould have about 12 foot between the ground level and '
the bottom of the hots e. The ground level would�be about 823. She al�o stated
that the question h�d come up at the Appeals Commission regarding �,�hether or not
the sewer was adequate. Tt was their underst::,nding tl�at it was a 10 inch pipe
south of Hugo and f3 inch north of Hugo. There wAS a question because some of
the people in the neighUorhood were experiencing a back-up problem. They felt
that the Engineering Departmeni; should look and see if there were adequrzte lines
to l�andle additional houses in the area.
Mr. Boardman stated that was an Lngineering Department problem and also stated
that it was probab�y desi��ed to handle full development of the area. _

Mr. Perrozzi s�ated thAt at the Appeals Cou�ission there was'concern about the
pile dr3ving. Since then he found that would not be necessary and could be hand
dug with a cement collar underneath so this would Alleviate that problem. Also�
there was a question about the setbacks on the side yard. He stated he would be
willing to cut down a couple feet on the house if that would help.

Mrs. Doris Schneppxaueller� 8151 Riverview Terrace, stated she lived next door to
the south. She stated th�t the survey was done in •the sainter and she felt they ,
misjudged by a couple of Seet. The watex from her .lot runs onto that lot.
Lm. 13oaxdman stated that he lk-�c1 to assume thaL' the survey is righi:. Ii; looics like �
i;he house is 5 fooi: oSf the prop°:ty line and that 'the Uaza�e is �+ foot fro;n the
property line. 15 i'oot is required a�id that was why they ueeded a varia?zce. He '
stated thc�t all �hey could do saas �ssume the survey was correct.
2✓�r. Chester Schack� 685 Glencrn Street ATE� stated that he was concernad about
settin� a precedeni:, Tnere were two lots behind him to the riorth. He felt the
house plar. was arr},�aard for that area anu �ras concerned about th� skirting around
the house. He stated tha�L- there would Ue a problem with ralents.
Mr. R. H. Klin6beiJ., f3199 rtiverview Terrace I�y stated that he lives ori the north
side of the lot in question, fie stated that in 1965 during the flood� water came
into the low spot on t?ie fi•o?at of i;he lot. He agreed with Mr. Schack about the
rodents.and aiter tl�e flood there was a problem wi.th rats on thai lot because oT
the debris left bel�ind. Fie noted tliat in Wiscon�in on lake ho�es they require
a poured foundation because of raientc. •
Mr. Johu Rice� 696 Hugo St. N.E., stated that iY they �rant the variances for
this.lot it would set A precedent in the area and the homes would be too close.
Mr.. Perrozzi stated that the gradin,� kould not be brou�t up to the top oY the
first floor. It would be pretty much as ic. As far as rodents gettin� into the
house� a wire mesh or lettice work will �o around i;he house to prevent rodents '
from gettin6 in. He ndded that the foundation would probabiy be stronger than
ar�v house in the nrea because of {.he poles and eye beam�construction. The City
of Minueapolis has approved this type oY construction. He also felt it was a ,
buildable lot and felt he had met the requirements o£ the flood plain.
Mr. Harris asked Ns. Perrozzi if he owned the property now?

Mr. Schack stated that they should be consistent in their rales regarding the
flood plain. He didn't think it was ri�ht to let Mr. Perrozzi build with poles
and someone else build a different way.
Air. Boardman stated that the floai plain regulationc were set up by the Federal
Goverrw�ent in 1975 and the regulations must be approved by the State. All requests
regarding this floal plain must be sent to the State. •
Mrs. Schack asked if the �arage would�be built on poles and raised also?
Mr. Boardman stated that a structure was not required to be above the flood plain
level unlecs it was habitable. It must be anchored however� so it doesn't float.
Mr. Perrozzi stated that the �arage would be out of the flood plain area. He
also stated that the value of the house would be consi�tent with others in the area
and would add to the amenities. This type of construction was developed because
land is beco�ing valuable.

CIASED AT.9;10 P.M.
Ms. Hughes stated she would need more input from the other Coffinissioners. She
vas complete],y opposed to building in the flood p1Ain. She would like more back-
ground regarding the philosopt�y of what is allowed in the flood plain.
Mr. Harris stated that he would like to appraise the Cou¢nissioners e�s to the
conditions oY A SpeciAl Use Permit. Under rezonings and variances it is incumbent
upon the petitioner to show cause why it should be grnnted. Under Special Use
Permits� iP it i� denied� .;.t is Sncumhent upon the Conunissioners to list �;oal and
c�ualified rectsons as to wk�y it should Ue denied. We have a flood plain ordinance

and it must be complied with. In thic aren the Corp of �n6J.neero hae 3tated
thc 1eve1 is f32?_. Our ordinance requires thut Any livable structure be 2 foot
ttbove the ].00 year Sloo3 levcl and thiE meets that requirement. So he is m�ecting
the requiremeni;c of thc floal p]ain and if we recca�unend elenial cre munt have bood
cause for it. Mr. Ifnrris ctated that it Y�as his general feelin� that the City
and the PJ.nnni.ng Coimnis�ion hrzs Ueen ne�rligent in not adoptin6 general policies
for developmeni; in this area. Nir. Harris ��ent to i;he City Council about a month
ago and acked how the Couneil rrould feel about a moratorium on buildinb in this
area. Council sug�ected the Plannin� Conanission study it and.form recorrmiendations
before they decJ.ure a moratorium. Ii�s pari>icular feeling was that he would not
like to see construction in the area until guidelines are set ixp.
Mr. Treuenfel.s was concerned about what would be considered �ood reasons. Two
aspects mentioned were first, the draina�e mi�ht not be suf£icient and second�
there could be a problem with ro3ents. He asked if these would be considered ,
good rea�ons for denial2 '
Ms. Iiu�hes added tha�i the 50 foot lot was substandard.
Mr. Harris stated tY�at in our ordinance� as�y plat recorded before 1955, �e a11ow
construction on 50 foot lots provided they are 7500 equare �eet. This lot is
not but i:hat concerns the Board of Appeals. The drainage situati�n is a valid
pofnt. He was not sure about the ralent situation.
NIr. Boardm�n stated that the ordinance layed out the types of things they rrould
not allow a Special IIse Permit for. The main thing tney look at is if ii will
cause economi.c hardsl:ip el�ewhere by cau�in� flocr3in� on the neighboring lots.
I£ they can show use through engineerinb data that they are not goiug to do thai
or if they could solve an existing drainage problem� then we feel tliey have met
that requirement.
Ms. Schnabel stated they.should review the Co�issioners obligations regarding
Special Use Permits. We must grant Special Use Permits if it is found thai; the
proposed use is cospatible with the existing use and does not endanger the public
health� safety and welfare of the area. To dev,y could"be dee�ed arbitrary� un-
lawful and in violation oP the applicant's rights. The burden is on us in that
sense. There have been other cases thst have established certain facts in con-
nection with this. For ixistance� A claim that the adjacent property owners pro-
perty would be devalued has been found by the courts to be not a reason for denial.
TP the use complies with Planning� City, nolice and Yire departraents recommendations
it must be given weight with the Council in approving a Special Use Permit. The
btu�den is real]y on our shoulders. She stated that she'got this information from
a memorsndum sent out by the City Attorney some time ago.
Mr. Harris asked iF this property was really in essence acting as a holding pondY
Mr. Boardman stated that was the way it looked.

Mr. Iinrria etai:ed tkwt it mi.ght be� becuuse of the draincige Eituation� that thia
otructure should not Ue Luilt there and maybe the City should looY, into the
poscil>ility of acquirin� i�liat lot for ctorm water stora6e. This goea back to
their orlginal discuceion of cetl;in� uo �;uidelinec And cr.i�teria Yox buildin� in
this area. If we hud that� we wou].d have certain nreas pinpointed as drainage
stora�e areas. lie was not certain that an f3 inch pipe could handle the situati on
of all tUe storm water in the area.
Mr. Boardman stated that the 8 inch pipe. was for sewer.
Mr. Hfarris acked what they had Por storm water? �
Mr. Oquist asked how nuch drainage there was thereY
Mr. Harris stated thAt it looked like the houses on both sides drained into this
1'ot . '
Ms. Schnabel stated that the house to the south drains there but the,house to the
north does not.
Mr. Doardman statel there was a series oP storm sewers th°re. Most of them are
a catch basin type system at the end of each of the streets and it drains £rom
there i;hrou�h a pipe into tne river.
Mr. Harris stated that accordin,a, to this drawing, the center of the street elevaEion
is at 822.6. Tnat is the er.isting elevation. In 'che lot, midpoint where the
house would sit� is £322. So this lot is acting as a storm water retention area.
The �arage elevation is at 822.6. The house to the south is 822.( and the house
to the north is f322.8. So they have to drain there.
I�. Boardman stated that by filling and grading,this lot� the water drainin� from
� the adjacent houses wi11 drai.n into this lot and out to the street. That wou:_d
solve the drainage problem. .
Mr. Aarris was not sure it would solve the problem. He did not ieel the elevation
diiferentials were enot�h. There were talking about pretty long distances and
about tenths of feet.
• Ms: Sehnabel stated that they were limited because of the elevation of the street
and if they:were going to chan;e it� it nught requi.re the whole lot be filled in.
Mr. Boardman stated that by filling in the lot� they would be creating a drainage
problem for the neighbors. �
Mr. Iiarris stated th3t there was a house off to the northeast aud there is an
elevation of 822.1 in the corner of that house. The swale is 823.6 so the swale
is higher than the corner of that house.
1�. Boardmun stated there probnbly wasn't.water in that area aqywqy.
Mr. IiArris stated that the drop from the back was 823.4 and to the front of the
lot is 822.3 so they have a foot und a tenth of un inch ovex 1172 feet. It was
aot much�of a fall.

Mr. Boardimn stnted that he looked at it based on en�{ineerin� und what can be
done wi.th the 1ot� and thcy probab],y did the most i;hey could do with the lot.
IIe still hnd>re�ervations as far ns what the Planning Cormnisaion�s recommendations
will be regardint, the lote in the flood plain.
Ms. Schnabel acked N,r. Harris if he wou].d feel more comfortable if this item were
tqbled until•he had nn opportunity to go to Council and discuss the questions that
hr�d been raised or until further study was done on the drainage on this lot.
Mr. Harris stated he would feel more comfortable, yesj but felt the petitioner
4rould like to �et on witl� the construction.
D7r. Robert Lindbloom stated he was the owner of the property and when he acquired
the property the City told him he could build on the property if he met the flood
plain requiremeut�.
Mr. Boardman stated that if they tabled it for the purpose of further discussion
with Council� he would suggest they not table it. He felt if they tiranted to table
it in order to put together a policy that rrould be a goat reason.
t9r. Harris agreed.
Ms. Hughes asked when they could �et to that kind of a study.
Mr. Boardman stated he would request a time perioci on the study. He stated he
was not quite sure what they were looking for. Right now they have regulations
and if they meet those re�ulations they can build. If they don't meet them� they
cannot build. The regulations require a look at the drainage and we have denied
several baeed on the drainage. This one does not seem to follo�� that criteria.
Mr. Harris stated he couldn't agree with that. It was difficult to grade within
an inch.
Ms. Hughes stated that it looked like there would be about � to 50$ hard surface
on the lot afi:er the house is built. She asked how max�y other lots would present
this same problemY
Mr. Boardman sL•ated there were onl,y a few � buildable lots in the area. The
other lots would be hard to build on because they would require �+ to 5 feet of fi]1.
Mr. Oquist stated that he did not see a reason to dex�y the Special Use Permit.
2�TION by Mr. Oquist� seconded by Mr. Treuenfels� to recommend to Council approval

Ms. Schnabel stated that she had s problem with the elevation situation. She was
not convinced tbat the figures were acurate and it would not cause a drainage ;
problem. This survey was done in the winter and there was a question by the
neighbors regarding the uccuracy. _ . �
2�
Mr. Iinrxic agreed and ctated they vroutd have no problem estnbliahin6 lines in the
win•ter� but it wou].d be difficuTt to eetabli�h elevationa in the winter.
Ms. Schnabel s�ated tliey could tuke the elevation at the four points and they
tbust have taken it ut the center� but the rect was all conjecture. She was
concerned about �etting down to less than an inch Qrade difference and she wae
not convinced thcy could clear any water proUlem wheu they were working rrith less
than 12 inches. She felt that the intent of the petitioner was correct nnd felt
he had u valid plan wi�h the post and beam conetruction.
Mr. FIora stated tha1; he agreed that gradin� that close was difficult.

Njr. Boardm�n stated tk:is zaas located at 6740 �+th Street Pi� and the petitioner
proposes to bui.ld a 624 square foot gara�e. It would be en accessory or second
garage. The existing garage is attached to the house. This would be located
to the rear of the house crith access off the serv,ice drive in the back area.
This is similer to other proposals that have been coming in and Staff has no
cwmnent.
Mr. Oquist asked if that was a service drive behind there?
Mr. Boerdman stated it was an access.
Ms. Schnabel asked if it was a dedicated access and asked wk�y there was a sign
at the end stating it was a private drivewayY She stated there tere also barriers
across there.
Mr. Hora stated that he lived on the service drive and the barriers were placed
there at the request of the neighbors.
Mr. Harris suggested they look into having a barricade on a public right of rray.
•��s
Mr. Oquist atated that if it's barricAded it and the possibility was there of 2 M
makir� an ensement there� coald u garage go there7 There �re other garages there.
Mr. Iiorr� stated they couldn't drive around the barricade.
Mr. Boardrottn stuted this gArage would have uccess o_°f that right oP way.
Mr• Narris statefl that then the barricades would have to be moved.
Mr. Iiora stated that ii; chould be the choice of the per�on ownin� the garage as
to whieh �aay he entered the alley, Last ycar they requested the City to move
the barricade to allow access to Mr. Larson's yard„
Ms. Schnabel stated that the sign saying it was a private drive should not be
there.
Nh�. Hora stated that he didn't see any prcblem ��ith the access. It was their
choice as "to which way they entered. I�e stated that the petitioner would not be
ati;endin� because he �:as in the hospital.
I�ls. Schnabel asked what the petitioner would do with the existing garage.
Mr. Boardman stated that the petitioner had discussed converting the garage but
didn't want to convert it ivnnediat'ely. He would wait on that.
Mr. Harris stated there would be a problem with that because it is 7 feet from
the lot line.
Mr. Boardman stated that wasn't his intention at this point in time. Fie felt the
main thing was that the existing g$rage was a single car garage and Hanted more
garage space.
Mr. Harris stated that when discussing the zoning codes� they were considering a
�+UO foot maximwn on second accessory buildings and they.enforced that on someone
else.
Mr. Oquist stated that was a difPerent situation because there were houses behind
it and it was going to be used for storage.
Mr. Harris pointed out that it xas simil.ar because it covered a large portion of
the width of the lot also. .
Mr. Harris asked for comments from the audience.
There were no comments.
Ms. Schnabel asked if there vere any co�ents from ar�y o£ the neighbors regarding
this in the Piles.

he could get a buildin6 permit.
Mr. Boardman stated he would have to get a variance.
Ms. Hughes noted that the neighbors in the audience lwd made no comments.

Ms. Schnabel siated thai she had a guestion regarding the size. This proposal is
far 62?F square Peet and i£ cre are �oing to be consistent� we should consider the
• cize of the building.
Mr. Boardman stated tk�at 400 square feet would be pretty tight for a double garage.
They should coneider the use of the building.
Mr. Oquist stated that he on],y tiad two cars but vrished he had that large of a
gara�e. It was a large lot� it �aould sit in the back� and there was no one behind
him. He £elt this was different from the previous request.
Ms. Schnabel stated that the proposed gara6e is lar�er than half the size of the
original house. The house is 25 by �+4 which works out to 1100 square feet.
Mr. Oquist stated he didn't think that was unusual. 24 by 26 is a nice size garage.
Ms. Aughes stated that she felt this would euhance this particular piece of property

Mr. Boardman stated this was located on the southcast corner of Osborne Road
and University Avenue, off the service drive. There i5'presently a single Sami]y.
structure there with residential around i-t. At 1;his time thexe is no comwercial
zonin�. The lot itsel£ is 23,45o square Yoot. Page 63 of the agenda shows i:hey
would Ue using the single family home as the o£fice with parkin� behind it. At
this point in time� Staff would recommend against this re�uest because it is
spot rezoning which is sa+nething the Planning Commission and the City are trying
to avoid. He would recommend they m�intain the residential character of that
area. • •
Ms. Schnabel asked whtxt page 63 sha�wed?
Mr. Boardman stated that page 63 showed how the parking would be behind the house
and pa�e 64 shoored how the house is situated on the lot. There would be a 20 foot
driveway. There would be access to the service drive and to Osborne Road. Iie
was not sure there wss enot�gh room behind the house considering the building is
23�000 square feet. There is about 60 feet behind it. It's a large lot� but
he feli; it would be spot rezoning and detremental to the neighborhood.
2P
tda. SchnaUel osked what the width of the hou,e was?
Mr. IIoardrmn stnted it waa about 26 feet� ._,.�. ._ „
Mr, Oquist asked if they had the required number oi pArking stA11c?
Mr. Boardman stated they did� for i:hat square footage.
Mr. Ed Bnbcock came forward and stated that he was the petitioner's nttorney. He
stated that he reprecented 29r, Ralph Lind. Mr. Lind was unabie to attend.becauEe
of recent sur�ery. Mr. Lind i:, retired and would like to sell. He fou.nd that
the best use was no longer residential. Mr. Babcock noted that there was strip
zonin� along University Avenue and thai; it had axi effect on the other three corners
of this intersection. He felt this property woulc not have it's Sull value as a
residence because of ��hat exists on -the other three. corners. He noted that in the
ordinance the word "trans9.tion" is used for CR-1 zoning. Zn other words� CR-1
zonin� should provide a transition between counnercial and residential zoning. He
suggested they look at this'as a unique site and not t�s usuaZ spot zoning. If
it �rere an interior lot� it tirould be different. [aith xespect to barriers� on the
south side there is a board fence and on the east side there is a green hedge.
Mr. Bob Iiays ocros the house to the east and he is in the real estate business� with
News Reality. Ydeias Reality has the listing on D4r. I.ind's home. They have not
entered into a purchase a�3reement and do not have a purcYiaser. They have had interest
in the property and it wovld appear that this would be a real estate o£fice. It
wou].d not be purcha�ed by I�'ews Reality. They F�ould be willin� to comply taith
any conditions imposed by the Commission.
Mr. Oquist asked how they could be sure it would be a real estate ofYice if they
didn't have a bvyerT
Mr. Babcock stated that a reaJ. estate business is very interested.
Mr. Oquist stated that he understood his point re�arding spot zoning and even
though it is not in the mi.ddle of residential� it is at the start of it.
Mr. Babcocic stated that he felt the corner lot was affected by the co�nercial more
than ar�y other lot and it would serve as a transition.
N�. Boarclr�an stated that he felt the corner lot wss more affected by traffic than
cammercial and the �ame point could be used for all the lots along the service
drive. All the lots to the south are af£ected by tra�£ic, access� lights, etc.
If they put that house on the marlset as a single fami7y;residence, it would be
sold that way. There are houses bein� built along 694 and al�o alon� the Burling-
ton lines that are qffected Uy traffic noise and those homes are being sold. By
starting co�ercial alor� thai: service road they would have major problems as far
as access on to Osborne. A�y corner development would spread along University
and they wovld have unother strip commercial development. Also� this zoning is
not consistent with the Compreliensive Development Plan the City adopted in 197�+.
�
'�`
2�
Mr. T3abcock ctated that he felt there crac more expo3ure on the corner and did
not feel it would necertsarily put them in the��osi.tion of rezoning the lots to
the south.
Mr. Oquist stuted it would make it more d3Eficult and it is the start of it.
Mr. IIoardman stated that ii the Planning Comnission �pproved this� they would
h[nve to looY. At the road system, 'i"ney ��ou1d need more of a loop accees for the
intersection o£ Oeborne and University. There are goin� to be changes on that
intersection thut will require eome medians� right and left tuY�n lanes and.those
types of things. If rezonin� ic approved in this area� nnd he would recouunend
A�ninct it� then he would recor,unend a portion be dedica�ted £or a loop-back cystem and
that the present structure� i;he way i� is presently set uz�� not Ue allowed to be
ui;ilized. He felt they �rould have to look at sellin� that structure and removing
it and developing so�ething along that eite that wauld meet a road pattern system.
If we stas•t developin� corc:,ercial� this street pat�Lern r�ill not service it. It
will. have to be changed. I% would like a cormiitment on the service drive and the
setbacks i'or the loop-back system.
Mr. Babcock stated they would try to meet the conflitions. FIe would have to
consult crith his client. The lot dimeusions are 185 feet on the �aest� 215 along
the east by about 130 foat.
hfr. Frank Waks, 757l+ �+th Street Nis, stated that the people in tha'c two bloelc area
were responsible Por the rezoning Srom Rice Creek to 73rd. Mr. Lind �aas in on
that petition. At one time, a trailor cow-t was pr.oposed for across the ctreet.
2dr. Linfl was in on the petii;'icn to stop tllat. He fclt the road�aay they were
considering alon� the back wculd be a iine tran�ition i'or 2'ir. Lind, but not for
the other 5 property owners along there. Mr. W�eks stated his property was 200
feet from P4r. Linds. They l�ad a gentlemen's agreement that 5th Gi:reet taoul.d not
be used to get to Unity Aospital. He stated he couldn't see taking that home�
which is a beautiful brick home� and making it commercial. The other 5 property
owners wo.il_d suffer more than A1r. Lind.
Ms. Lorraine IIlosl�y� 305 76th St. NE,. stated that she•lives behind the fence.
She stated they have been there £or 24 years and had watched all the changes. She
did not want the parking and traffic noise. There wou].d be an increase in tra£fic
on the service road.
Mr. Robert Blosiq�� 30j 76th Ave. NE� stated he had a petftion with 32 signatures
agAinst the rezoning. They live L-o the south. He agreed with his wi£e and didn'L
believe there should be s coimnercial property on that corner.
Mary Treanor� 7542 4th St. NE� stated that 4th Street was one block long and was

Univercity as well as the houses thai� back up to it on 4th Street. The traftic
pal:tern is a critical part end felt it would be a mistake to even consider puttin�
the parlcin� in the rear rrii;h an access to Osborne road. It would be � very
dangerous situation. Also� a great deal of the nei�hbors are opposed.
MOTION Uy M�. Schnabel� seconded by P4r. Oquict, to recommend to Council denial
of rezonin� request ZOA �f79-o3, by Robert G. iIays: Rezone Parcel 2700 lyin� in

notice for comple�,;e legal), from R-]. (single i'amily dwelling areas) to CR-1
(�eneral ofi'ice and lirnited business), ti�e same being 7599 University Ave. IJ.E.,
for the following reasons: 1� spot rezoning - surrovnded by residential� 2)
creating a dan�erous situation with parking in the rear and access to Osborne, and
3) great deal of neighborhood oppocition.
Ms. Hughes stated that she a�reed completely.
Mr. Treuenfels stated that £urther housing is needed in Frid7,ey and most of the
residential land has been dereloped. Also� there are a number of trees on the
lot that might not survive. For these reasons he did not feel it would be in the
best interests of the City to rezone residen•tial to commercial. •

Mr. Boardmon gnve the Commiesioners eome aerial photo�raphu of the eite. �e
ntated the Qi�e wao locA�ed in the loop-back area tli�t the City has at 57th
and Univer3lty Avenue. 4'he exictin� ctruc�ure will be taken down. There Are
four lota with one owner and the £i��t 3 lots are zoned C-2 and the Yourth lot
is zoned R-2. They would like the R-2 lot zoned C-2 so it �rould be consistent
with the other three lots and they would be able to construct a srmll office
with a WincLell llonut on �he corner. This is located acro�s the street Prom
rihere the new approved �uper Am.erica Station will �o. He felt this plan with
the landscaping would be an improvement.over the existinb �ta�ion will all the
blacktop on thic curner. '
Mr. Treuenfels aciced if there trasn't a second possibility concerning the road4
Mr. Boardman s�ated they had looked at it in the re�idential con•Lext because
there is A residential structure there. There were two altern�tives. Qne was
to leave the serrice road where it is. They felt that if the existing house
was ever �estroyed� that propexty would probably Uecome cotmnercial. Fie felt
that wi�h that road pattern it was not a good loca�Cion for residential. If
they developed the road pattern in a manner to isolate that house from this
commercial area, and eliminate this road systen� it would be tied more into a
residential area. They felt this plan was the best.
Nm. �gene Graves stated they c�ould like to get the four lots together so they
could put up a better building.
Ms. Schnabe]. asked if tkxey had �dinchell's lined up as a tenantY
Dir. Graves stated they did, but as of today they didn't. But they still want
to get tk� four lots togcther.
Ms. Schnabel si;ated that the plans indicated they wanted to put office and retail
in and asked what type of facilities they were thinking up?
Mr. Graves stated that.he had no tenants lined up.
Ms. Schnabel asked what the square Pootage of the building would be?
Mr. Graves stated he was not sure and only had sketches. They pl.anned to
present the plans when they applied for the buildin� permit a£ter the rezoning
was taken care of. .
Mr. Boardman stated tvat the plan the Commissioners had indicated the maximum
amount of space and parking thmt would be allowed on th�st site.
Ms. Schnabel stated that the following were the types o£ businesses allowed in
a C-2: Drug store� hardware store� bakery, department store� bars and taverns�
household equipment repair shops� co�ercial recreation, rest�urant, excluding
drive-ins� and several others that would not be applicable. A].so� edditional
things would be allowed with a Special Use Permit.

tke building in tne back and the parking on the south and west.

problem with that because oi' tbe service road. The service road that is presently

Super America to alloyr them the additional room they need and.still provide a
service access. In order to do that they l�ad to go �cross the car dealership's
property and in those negotiations they turned back some of the property to
the car dealership. Super America would get Parcel 1 and Parcel 2, and the
dealerehip would get Parcel 3. Th3s plan wi11 also solve the problem with the
traffic from the drive-in.

c�ere notified of this? •

driv� .

and the drive-in was letting cars go through there. _

HEARII+TG OPEN AT 8:50 P.M.
Ms. Schnabel read the Administrative StaYf Report as follows:
ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF REPORT
8181 Riverviet•i Terrace
A. PUf3LIC PURPOSE SERVED [3Y REQUIRENENT:
Section 205.053 (13) On a plat recorded before December 29, 1955, the,
_minimum lot area is 7,500 square feet.
Public purpose served by this requirement is to avoid the condition of
overcrowding of a residential neighborhood and to avoid an excess burden
on the existing water and sewer services, and to avoid reduction of
surrounding praperty values.
Section 205.053, 4, (Q,1) requiring a 10 foot side yard setback for
living areas in an R-1 zone.
a
APPEAi� COMI�ffSSION MEEPING, MAY 15, 1979 �. PAGE 11 2 jl
Public purpose served by this section of the code is to maintain a
minimum of 20 feet between living areas in adjacent structures and
15 feet bet4�een garage and living areas in adjacent structures to reduce
exposure to conflagration of fire and also to allow for aesthetically
pleasing open areas around residential structures.
B. STATED HARUSHIP:
None given.
C. ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF REVIEW:
RivervieN� Heights was platted many years ago in 25 foot lots. Over the
the years past, many homes have.been built by combing t4ao 25 foot lots
io attain one 50 foot site. There are several homes in this same block
that have been built on lots of this size.
This lot is located in the flood plain, therefore, the structure must
be elevated to a certain level, and in some instances it has been difficult
to grade the property to meet flood plain requirements.
This proposed structure is going to be post and beam construction, therefore,
the grade can be left {�retty much the �vay that it is.
The staff has no recoinmendation on the area variance request, if the Cominission
approves it. •
oftitrweewould notthave��recommended�stipulationhsin�emeven�withcthe�reducedroval
side yard, it would still meet the 6uilding Code of 6 feet between structures.
There is however, additional hazard of spread.of fire due to the reduction
from 15 feet to 10 feet bet�aeen living area and garage.
Ms. Schnabel stated that the Commissioners had received a survey of the property
and also a picture of the lot in question. They also hsd a map of the area.
Mr. Clark stated that the house plsn was presented with a post and beam type
foundation allowing for water to stand beneath the structure should the river
come up. The top oY the floor inside would be approximate]y 3 to 4 feet above
the existing ground.
Mr. Plemel asked if there would be a basement or crawl space?
Mr. C2ark stated that as he understands it wouJ.d be open underneath by about
12 feet. There would be l� feet below the Yloor joists to the ground. Mr, Clark
stated that this item would also be heard by the Planning Co�ission on May 23�
1979� because it is 3n the flood plain. At that time they will consider the
structure and elevations. The Appeala Board is on�y required to act on the two
variances� one to reduce the aquare footage requirement Yrom 7500 square feet to
5989 square feet and the other to reduce the side yard to the south of the house
Prom the required 10 feet to 5 feet. He stated that the house could be turned
90 degrees so the ahorter aide vould be tawards the street and that would increase
the side yard to g feet.
APPEALS COhA�ffSSION MEETII�, MAY 15, 1979 - ,_� PAGE 12

Mr. Perrozzi stated that regarding the newer foundation� the City of Minneapolia
has built several of these structures in the Lake Calhoun area where they have a
problem with poor footinga and poor soil a� it meets ell their engineering require-
menta as far as steel beam construction goes. The steel eye beam would be more
solid than conventional concrete or cement foundations. He stated there would be
skirting around the outside so it wouldn't be open. The skirting will keep amall
animals and children from getting under the house. There wiLl be a culvert coming
up Por the sewer and water near the rear of the house.
Mr. Plemel asked if he was planning to own and occupy this himself?
Nh�. Perrozzi stated that he planned to.
Ms. Gabel asked Mr. Perrozzi to explain the type of beams he was talking about.
Mr. Barna stated it would be like the house on Matterhorn Drive construction wise.
The look oP the house was dif£erent irom this but the construction wae basical],y
the sa�.
Mr. Perrozzi stated it would be a number of telephone poles that would be power
driven into the ground and the steel eye beam would rest aeross those poles.
Ms. Gabel asked what the skirt would be made of?
Mr. Perrozz3 stated the skirt would be wood with a screen mesh like a lattice work
would be. It would look like a conventional house.
Ms. Schnabel asked Mr. Perrozzi if he would be doing the actual construction work
himself Y
Mr. Perrozzi stated he would have it done but he would be the general contractor.
Ms. Schnabel asked how soon he planned to begin construction?
Mr. Perrozzi stated he planned to begin within a month and have it completed tMis
su�er.
Ms. Schnabel asked iY he proposed to put a garage on the rear of the propertyY
Mr. Perrozzi stated that was correct.
Ms. Schnabel asked if the plan the Co�issioners had was done by a surveyor?
Mr. Clark stated that was a reduction of a plan done by a surveypr.
Ms. Schnabel stated she had noticed ell the swaies noted on the plan and asked
if there wae a specific reason for that.
Mr. Clark stated that if the grading was done according to this plan� theoretical]y�
no vater will run Prom this lot onto an adjoinin� lot. The lot would drain within
itself out onto the street. The darkened arrows are the center lines of where the
flows of water wi11 supposed]y take place. There will be water flowing along the
south side oY the house and also along the driveway on the north side of the house.
pPPEALS COMIdISSION MEETING, MAY 15�_1979 - PAGE 13 2�Q(
Ms. Schnabel asked how they could be sure it would be done in that marr�nerT
Mr. Clark stated that the grading wou].ci be checked by the Engineering Department
beYore it is approved. -
Mr. Plemel stated this looked like extra precautions that we don't normally see
and asked if there was a problem.
Mr. Clark stated they didn't want thie property built up so the water runs on
the neighbors property and causes water problems for them.
Mr. Plemel asked if there would be some fill added to this lot?
Mr. Clark stated there would not be a lot of Pill added because the house is
being built above the ground. The driveway would probab]y need a little bit.
Mr. Barna stated that elevations shown on the plan sre pretty much what they
currently are.
Mr. Clark stated that the ones not circled are existing elevations and the ones
circled are the proposed elevations.
Ms. Schnabel stated that the ones circled are proposed elevations and if they
are not in iact existing npw� that means they wi11 either .have to be �raded or
there would have to be fill brought in.
Na�. Clark stated that the north east corner shows an eacisting elevation of 823•7
and the proposed would be 823.6 so there would be basically no change there. Where
the house would sit the grade of the elevation is roughly at 824.1 and the drivew�y
elevation is at 824� which is about the same elevation as the house te the north.
To the south the existing garage is at about 822 and the swale on the proposed
drawing is at 822 so there would not be a great change. He stated that the lot
itselY would not be built up with the exception of the driveway. On the Staff
Report for the S}iecial Use Permit it states that the ground underneath the house
should be at 823 and if you look at the swale along the south property line it's
less thsn 823 and the swale does drain towards the street so water will not kiave
to stand on the lot.
Ms. Schnabel stated that then Pro� midway on the lot to the street it would go
Prom 823 to 822� a diYference of sbout one Yoot� pitched towards the street on the
smzth side. On the north side it would go from midway at 82�F to 822 so there
would be a two Poot difference to the street.
Ms. Schnabel reierred to the StafP Review snd stated they were speaking oY the
garage on the south side oY the proposed structure. She asked how Yar that
garage is off the property line? '
Mr, Clark stated it was approximately 4� feet.
pPPEAIS COMMISSSON MEETING, MAY 15� 1979 - PAGE 14 2LL
Ms. Schnabel stated that the proposal for the new structure on the south side
is to put it at 5 feet so there would be 9z feet between the two. She stated
that the code requtred 15.
Mr. Clark stated that because this is a detached garage� it could be as close
as 3 feet. ,
Ms. Schnabel stated that was a point and if it were gara�e to garage it could
be 6 Peet between the two. So since this is a detached garage it could be
3 feet but the house would have to be 10 £eet. So the basic question they have
to deal with is the request to have the house closer to the lot line than the
code allows. Also� he was suggestin� that if the house were turned so i:hat the
30 Poot ran north�south, they could pick up an additional �t feet.
Mr. Barna asked the petitioner how flexible the floor plan was?
Mr, Perrozzi stated that if they turn the house it would destroy the amenities
such as the view of the river, etc. They si.tuated it this way so everythisi� they
wanted in the house could be accomodated.
Ms. Schnabel stated that the other question was the lot size. They would like to
reduce it fr� 7500 square feet to 5989 square feet. Basically the difference
comes in the lot width rather than the lot length because the lot length is as
long ar longer than most lots in the City. She asked that the people in the
audience keep in mind that they were dealing with those two questions� the lot
size and the side yard setback.
Mr. R.. H. Klingbeil, 8199 River View Terrace, came forward and stated he lives
on the north side of the property in question. Mr. K].ingbeil was concerned
about the pile driving and that it �aould harm his foundation.
Mr. Perrozzi stated that when they do the pile driving� they would set a meter
in Mr. Klingbeil's house that would measure the vibrations and they wovld keep
them at a certain level so his foundation would not be harmed.
Mr. Clark stated that the house on Matterhorn is on posts also and they were not
power driven. They dug and put down concrete pads and set the poles on the pads.
Mr. K13ngbeil reiterated that power driving those pilings would harm his foundation.
He stated that his other concern was that when they put in this atreet� they raised
the road and his Yront lawn tapers that way and he would have to fi11 there or it
will drain on his property.
Mr. Clark stated that in the middle of the yard it was at 821 which indicated that
hie yard was hi�her by the house and dips down and back up at the street. Mr.
FQingbeil's water probably drain� onto this vacant lot. When this vacnnt lot is
filled it will not do that a�ymore.
Me. Schnabel stated Mr. Klingbeil could be £aced with a little regrading on his
own lot.
APPEALS COh4�ffSSION MEEPING, MAY 15� 1979 PAGE 15 2MM
Mr. Schack� 685 Glenece St. N.E.� came Yorwsrd and askect how far the garage
would be from the adjacent property line and the adjacent house?
Mr. Clark stated it would be closer to his garage.
Mr. Schack stated that when he built six years ago certain limitations were put
on him regarding setback and concrete blocks and he was upset tk�at Mr. Perrozzi
would not have the same limitations.
Ms. Schnabel stated that the code may have been difYerent then.
Mr. Don Schneppmueller stated that he lived at 8151 River View Terrace which is
south of the property in question. His feeling was that the entire axea was being
over-populated. He stated that he had problems with his sewer backing up and if
they put more homes in there it would be worse yet.
Mr. Barna asked Mr. Schneppmueller if he had problems with his sewer during this
last high water?
i+h+ir. Schneppmueller stated he didn't have ar�y problems this last time, but a year
ago he did. He stated he does get odors down there a lot, Sf they put this house
here and they are planning to put two more on the other side of Hugo� so it's going
to get worse.
Mrs. Schneppmueller stated that when they wash their car or when it rains� the
water runs into that lot and she was concerned about where that water would go if
they built a house there.
Ms. Schnabel stated that Mrs. Schneppmueller's house was at 823.7 and the hi�est
point shown that they are proposing is at 823.7 which is the same as their house�
but that is at the very rear of the lot. All along the lot line they are showing
an elevation that is lower tk�an Mrs. Schneppmueller's house.
Mr. Perrozzi stated that the runofi in his lot goes to the atreet.
Mr. Barna stated that the normal runoff in that area is not normal� it is very
high and standing water in that area is very high.
Mr. Schneppmueller stated that everything comes from the East River Road and
there was no sewer from a block up so it comes right down to River View Terrace.
Mr. Klingbeil stated that they took the surveys in the winter and he believed they
miased a little bit.
Mr. C2ark stated the survey was taken on Febxvary 21� 1979•
Mr. Perrozzi stated that this meeting was concerned with the variances and the
3pecial Use Permit should be discussed at a later time.
Ms. Schnabel stated that aince these people were here they should be able to
coffiaent.
APPEALS COhII�ICSSION MEEPING, MAY 15s 1979 - PAGE 16 2NN
Mr. Barna stated that N�, Schack'c concern wae tkiat he had two vacant lots
behind his house and what is allowed here will bear on what is allowed behind
him and after the experience on Fairmont the people were.concerned. The house
on Fairmont ie a nice house but it �ust dcesn't Pit.
Ms. Schnabel pointed out the this discusaion was more germain to the Special Use
Permit which will be handled by the Planning Cor�ission. The Board of Appeals
was concerned with the variances.
Ms. Gabel stated that i£ they were objecting to the design of the house� nobody
had a�y control over that.
Mr. Klingbeil asked if this had to go to the government because it is in the
flood plain.
Mr. Clark stated that was correct and it has already been reviewed by them.
Mr. Barna asked Mr. Schneppmueller how £ar his garage was from the lot line?
Mr. Schneppmueller stated it was 4 feet.
Mrs. Schneppmueller aslced iF they would have to move their fence onto their
property if that house is built there and how close to the property line does
it rsve to be.
Ms. Schnabel stated they general]y recommend that the fence be within their
property so they can maintain both sides of the fence.
Mr. Clark stated ii they put it right on the property line it causes problems
for surveyors� but the code dces not demand that it be setback from the property
line.
Ms. Gabel asked about the sewer and water.
Mr. Clark stated that he was not sure. He stated that during the flood there was
a lot of problems. There used to be a lot oP infiltration of ground water into
the sewers. Personall,y� he was not aware of a� back-ups with the exception oY a
few isolated cases in the last few years. These reports go throUgh the Public
Works Department and they had no comments regarding this particular item. He
stated that the sewer drops at iIv�o and gces from 8 to 10 inches� and below Hugo
it is probab�y ]A inches. Above Hugo it is all 8 inehes. There is c].qy tile
there.
Mr. John Rice� 696 Hugo Street N.E., asked how high the house would be.
Mr. Perrozzi stated it would be a story and a half.
Mr. Clark stated that the lst floor would be higher than the houses around it by
about one foot.
Mr. Perrozzi stated that if they put drain tile_along the swale lines and run it
into the river� it would take care of the drsinage problems.
Ms. Schnabel stated that she didnTt think they would be able to do that.
APP�ALS COh�IISSION MEETING, MAY 15, 1979 PAGE � 2 OO
Mr. Klingbeil stated that he was told they wouldn't put more than two houses
in one block because it would be too crowded. He stated that by puttin� so
max�Y houses in it would become a slum area.
Ms. Schnabel asked ii he had ever been approached to buy one oY these 25 foot
lots?
Mr. Klingbeil stated that he could of boug�t it but did not want to.
Ms. Schnabel stated that her point was that when they have a 50 foot lot like this
it is going to be built on. The alternative is for the people adjacent to the
property purchase it.
Mr. Dan St. Clair� 8141 River View Terrace, stated that he has lived here for
about one year. One o£ the reasons he moved into this area was because oP the
niee houses and location. He moved here so he wouldn't be so close to his
neighbors and have over-crowding.
Mr. Barna asked Mr. Sneppmueller how he wculd feel about having a house about
9 feet away from his garageT
Mr. Sneppmueller stated he wouldn't like it.
Mra. Sneppmueller stated they have a swi�ing pool in their back yard and are
in it quite late at night sometimes. There could be a lot of noise.
Ms. Gabel stated that when someone owns a piece of property� they have the right
to develop it.
Nh�. Bob Lindgren stated that he had an interest in the property. He felt it was
a good piece of land and felt that the people here looked at it as a dump for
all their water. Mr. Perrozzi would like to build a house on it and live there.
He has a right to develop his property.
Ms. Schnabel stated tk�at another point they should make with this particular
request is that the size of the lot they are faced with is a given fact and there
wasn't much they could do. There was no land available to expand the size of the
lot. There is a hardship in the width of the lot but plans cwal.d be developed that
would require no variances. Other houses have teen built on 50 foot lots without
variances she thought.
Mr. Clark stated they could build a home on this size lot that would not require
any side yard variances.
A7r. Barna stated he could see no reason for designing the house 5 feet from the
lot line.
Ms. Schnabel stated that their concern in setting houses close to each other was
the spread of fire and their other concern was to have enough room to get Pire
Pighting equipment throvgh iP necessary. The Fire Ch1eY k�as said they need a
certain amount of space for that. _
_ PAGE 18 ZPP
Mr. Clark stated it would depend on the height of the building and they wanted
enough room to raise a ladder.
Mr, Barna stated there were 960 square foot houses all over that area on 50 Poot
lots without side yard variances. According to his calculations, there are on]y
940 square £eet on the first floor of the proposed house.
Ms. Schnabel stated they had the option of the petitioner considering reworking
his p].sn so they wouldn't need a side ysrd variance.
Mr. Perrozzi stated that if he couldn't build the house the way he wanted it� he
probab�y would not live in the house.
Mr. Barna stated that 22 feet of this lot is actually in the street. There is a
zero boulevard. That is not real�y a street� i�t is a dyke. He didn't see a
dimension from the front of the house to the curb line.
Mr. C].ark stated there would be 32 feet from the £ront of the house to the
bituminoua surface.
M(Y.CION by Ms. Gabel� seconded by Mr. Barna to close the public hearing.
UPON A VOICE VOTE� ALL VOTING AYE� CHAIRWOMAN SCHIdAABEL DECLARED Ti� Pi]BLIQ HEA��NG
CLOSED AT 10:05 P.M.
Ms, Schnabel stated that she would to re�ind the Commissioners that the two
questions they k�ave been asked is to consider the reduction of the square footage
oP the lot and the side yard setback. In terms of the side yard setback, tae have
asked the petitioner ii he would be willin� to turn the house in order to gain
an additional 4 Peet and he has said that he felt that would hinder his sight in
terms of the lot and would create some diif3culties in terms of entrance to the
house. The second point was if he would consider reworking this floor plan and
he indicated that he would not be in iavor of that because this was the house that
he wished to build for himself and his family and if he had to redraw he would
probably be faced with putting up a total�y different structure in which case he
probably wouldn't live there. In terms of the lot size� they were faced with a
lot that was platted and sold as a 50 foot wide lot and was substandard or less
than code. It is a land locked piece of la�d and there is no additional land
available to enlarge it. This sucmnarizes the two points we have to deal with.
Ms. Gabel stated that in terms oP the two variances� the 7500 £oot reduction is
not unusual in that area. There are a large number of homes built on 50 foot lots
in that area and we rather consistently grant variances in that area to allow
building on 50 foot lots. As far as the side yard variance gces� it wotil.d still meet
the intent of the building code in terms of keeping 6 feet between the structures. She
understood the objections of these people and that there were used to the open
space and using this lot to drain their water and if it is built on they wi]1 have
to find a wqy to drain their own �rater. She felt that if someone buys a piece of

aewer problem.

Mr. Barna stated that basically they were talking about an 822 foot level drop
down to where the sewer pipe is. The river right now is at about 810 feet. It
was up about 816 Feet in the last three weeks. Normally.when the river comes up
the people in this area k�ave quite a bit of problems with ground water backin�
up into the sewer pipes snd causing back pressure up in their basements. Most
of them have installed pressure locks and this type of thing. Thera are quite a
few homes in that arer� that consistently hsve sewer back up problems. This ground
sits sbout 20 or 30 feet below East River Road which creates the additional
problem of pumping that sewage up to that level and then out. They have quite
a bit oP sewer problems. The pumping station is at Apex and 79th,
Ms. Schnabel stated she would be more comPortable if the Engineering Department
had given them more input regarding this and maybe that should be done before
the Planning Commission meets.
Mr. Clark stated that from their standpoint, the addition of one or two or even
ten houses into this system is not going to make ar�y difference in the back up
problems that some of these people are experiencing. What they are experiencing
is high ground water and that water infiltrating into the sewer which is a much
higher volume than the discharge Prom eight or ten houses.
Mr. Barna stated that he has consistenly voted in faver of allowing building on
50 foot lots in this area. But there are no houses on 50 foot lots on River
View Terrace Yacing the river. This would be the first. Also� ne stated it
was possible to put a large, nice looking home on a 50 foot lot without side
yard variances and without building within 9 Peet of a neighbor's garage. He
would consider that this house width in this area and on a 50 foot lot� much too
wide in his opi.nion,
Mr. Plemel stated that he was not sure the City would de�}r the variance to build
on a 50 foot lot or if it would stand up in court because the precedent has been
set ma�y times over in the River View Heights area. Because oP the neighborhood
objection and because there was no hardship given he would recommend they disal].ow
the variance on the side yard. �
MOTION by Mr. Plemel, seconded by Mr. Barna, to recommend to Council approval
of the request for the variance to Chapter 205 of the Fridley City Code� to reduce
tha sqvare footage requirement of a loi, recorded before December 29„ 1955 from
7500 square feet to 5989 square feet, and further to reco�end to Council the
request to reduce the s3de yard setback requirement on the living side of the
house from 10 feet to 5 feet to allow the construction o� a new dwelling at
8181 RiverView Terrace N.E. be denied.
Ms. Schnabel stated the motion was to reco�end approval of the lot size reduction
and reco�end denial of the request for a side yard setback. She called for
further discussion.
Ms. Gabel stated she was not quite clear on wk�y they should deny the variance
for the side yard setback.

Ms. Gabel stated that whoever accepts these

Mr. Plemel stated that his second reason was because oP the neighborhood objectiort
to the close�proximity to the buildings to the south.
Ms. Schnabel stated they should ask the petitioner w]�at his specific hardship is?
Mr. Perrozzi stated that it was to utilize the lot to it's best potential. Putting
in a smaller home would add to the degeneration oP the neighborhood. He could
build e smaller home but he would not want to live in it.
Ms. Gabel stated that she didn't totally agree with Mr, Plemel's motion. She agrees
with reducing the square footage but not with de�ying the side yard setback. We
have done that consistently.
Mr. Plemel stated that he felt a compromi.se would be in order because of the
neighborhood objection.
Ms. Schnabel stated that Nm. IClingbeil had stated that he did not see any real
problem with a house going in and that he did not have any real problem in terms
of the side yard setbacks. His biggest concern was damage to his foundation from '
the power driven piles. The neighbor on the south side was apparently concerned
with it being 5 feet off the property line, The problem is to find a happy median.

motion will be dedicated to discussing the �.ecess issue, and
will invite people to come into the studio to make programs.
This promotion literature will be sent to every citizen of
Fridley, he stated. Pdr. Eddy stated that since i�ay lst, they
have taken in an additional twenty-six subscribers. i�ir. Eddy
further stated that after discussion with Mr. Balzart, and
Mr. Stark, they had decided that they would process the program

is scheduled for CQay. 16th, and will be shown i�fay 21st, at 6s30 1'.i�d.
and additionally during the day.
Mr. Eddy stated that at this time, the black and white studio
was working, but t11at they still weren't up to their standards,
so that they are replacing two black and white cameras with
two color cameras, but, P�Ir. Eddy, did not want to estimate when
the new equipment would arrive. He further stated that the color
studio is partially working, and that they can malce color record-
ings at this time.
Mr. Eddy wanted to introduce �[r. Tom Stark at this time. Mr. Eddy
stated that Mr. Stark would be working in the studio with the
Fridley citizens to develop access programs. i�1r. Stark also
would be conducting workshops, processing requests and scheduling
the programs for playback. i�r. Eddy further stated that:�7r. Stark
has been primarily involved in getting things back together in
the studio into operating condition. ;rir. Eddy stated that they are
now in the position to be able to make programs. Mr. Eddy stated,

ariswering the phones, and the questions of individual� who
request time for access pro�rammin�. Mr. L'ddy further stated
that Mr. Stark would also be working with the AnoY.a County
i9orkshop, and would be generally made available to the people
of Fridley who have questions or need he1p.
Mr. Belgum questioned Mr. Eddy on what would be Mr. Stark's
limitations7 �
�flr. Eddy stated that Mr. 5tark is restric�ed in the amount of
time he can be away from the studio, in as much as he could
not go out and talk to community groups, nor could he write
grants, such as an Access coordinat�r could and would do.
AZr. Moravetz interjected that regarding the first come first
serve basis, what was brought out at the N.F.L.C.P. Regional
meeting this last weekend, was that some access centers in the
region have had problems with �his in that they felt that the
ones that used the access most, were the ones that did not need
to use access. But, he felt that this may be the best method
to use initial 1y, but, that this should be thought about in the
future if it becomes a.prob].em.
�r. Eddy stated that if it did come to a.point in time, where
an individual or group was monopolizing the access, something
then wauld have to be done to limit it.
�4r. Eddy stated that he had talked with a�r. Walstead, who is
involved in building the midrise at Village Green. hYr. Walstead
was to check with his finance director on the possibility of
providing service to the residents there. D4r. Eddy stated that
he was not to optimistic, in that the project is subsidized by the
government, and that there is not much flexibility in what they
could charge their residents.
hlr. Moravetz elaborated on the Village Green complex. He stated
that at one time it was owned by an individual named Rydell, who
sold it to an individual named Fred ldall, who then went into
partnership with Canadian Finance. Canadian Finance, he explained
was resgonsible for the apartments, and the mid�ise
,Pa�o 4 CATV Commission Meeti.n� MaY 9, 1979
.. in the Alice Wall addition. He stated that some of the
lots though are owned by Rodney Billman.
Mr. Kaspszak stated that he felt they should check into who ovms
and is building the Village Green midrise, �o that they would
know who they are dealing v�ith.
Ms. BZanding questioned if it would be possible to have a pro-
gram that she would be attending at a Glontessori sch�ol taped?
Mr. Eddy stated that there is a black and white porta-pack
available.
Mr. VJeaver questioned P�r. Eddy for any ideas on how it would be
possible if at a11, ta tie into the Fridley school system, as he
understood that they have a video tape library, and equipment7
Mr. Eddy stated that earlier in the week he had a tour group
from the industrial arts class of the high Uchool thru the studio.
Mr. Eddy stated that after the tour, he told the group about the
Cable operation, and suggested to them that if anyone was incer-
ested in an internship that they should contact him.
Mr. Belgum stated that he felt that Cable TV was coming very fast,
and that the children in the school system should be able to
learn about it.
Mr. '�eaver questioned that maybe the possibility of involving the
cable operation into something like what is now the work study
progratn thru the school. This would make it possible for the
students to work, learn, and experience the Cable TV operation.
3C
Mr. Kaspszak stated that he felt that in view of all the budget,
financial, and other problems that the school system is experiencing,
and because few people understand, or lmow about Access TV, that
this would be one of the school's lowest priorities at this time.
He suggessted that if the activities such as the pep band, or
part of the Senior play were vidio taped and then played back,
that this might develop an interest so that soon the students
would want to learn more about the Cable operation.
�r. Belgum stated that at the U of M. there is a powerYul video
tape production class, which teaches people how ta:.use the video
Page � CATV Commmission Meetin� MaY 9, 1979
equipment� and portapack „ etc., all of which can be adapted to
the Cable TV operation, and production.
After discussion on promoting the upcoming rridley Forum program,
produced by Mr. Balzart, Mr. Eddy stated that what they would do,
would be to have Mayor Nee come in to the studio and tape a
promo that could be tacked on before and after the show for
further promo use. Mr. Eddy further stated that right now what
he could do would be to free up one of their memories on their
data channel, and see if they couldn't get it on channel 25 on
a regular basis, so that it says something,like this channel
now available for public access progratnming, and watch Fridley
Forum with the time and date.

. 2. Statement to Senate Committee on Gommerce (See Attachement)
Mr. Kaspszak questioned Mr. 1Roravetz as to if this hearing had
been held?
Mr. �oravetz responded that yes but that the i�ayor was not able
to get to the floor to make his statement. But, that :�7ayor Nee,
followed thru with another correspondence. Mr. iNoravetz further
stated that this past weekend at the N.F.L.C.P. regional meeting,
the chairman of the MCCB board sounded very optimistic that
all these Bills had been killed : for this session.
But, after talking with Anne Davis, he stated this afternoon,
she .had some caution i.n- this area. '
Ms. Davis then stated that as she understands it, the Senate
Commerce Committee has adjourned for this session, but that
things could still happen on the Senate fl.00r� and that over in
the House. the Bill has been passed out of Committee, and is on
General Orders. She stated that the i�1CCB expects that Representative
Wilker from hIontivideo to attach as an amendment on that particular
Bill when it comes out on to the House iloor. So things can
stil7. happen on the House and Senate floors she stated.
Pa�e 6 CATV Commission �eetin� �av 9�_ 1979
Regarding the s�tatement to the Senate Committee on Commerce,
I�r. Kaspszak asked if the Commission members had read this memo?
He stated that this letter would shed some light on this Bill.
He further stated that basically it is an effort that is meant
to deregula�e the i�ldustry. As a result of that, one of the
amendments will decrease the amount of revenue that accrues to
the City of Pridley. Mr. Kaspszak stated that for the City of
Fridley it is a bad Bill, revenue-wise. i�r. Kaspszak stated
that he himself, and also i�r. IIill Nee are against this Bill.
Mr. Kaspszak further stated that he has spent time with Udayne
Simoneau on writing arguements against this Bill that cvlr. Simoneau
could use on the floor when the Bill comes up. Also, he stated,
Mr. Nee has given Mr. Simoneau some input. Mr. Kaspszak stated
that CZr. Simoneau is not very optimistic though.
3E
Mr. Kaspszal: stated that the Companies have an Association of '
which Mr. Greg Gerard is presiden�. It is ��r. Gerard who is
spearheading this legislation, a��d that Jim Erickson, who is the
legal counsel for Sterer Broadcastin� represents all the Companies,
and is a lobbyist for this legislation.
�2r. Kaspszak stated tha� he told John Eddy that "if �hey cut that
1� from the City, and that if they want to kill local access,
that this is the way to do it." Mr. Kaspszak stated that John
Eddy's reply was, "Ed when are you going to get off my back?"
�4r. Kaspszalt stated that he responded by saying, "If that Bill
passes, maybe never, because you are hurting us." (City of Fridley)
t�r. Kaspszak further stated that if they cut out the State Cable
Commission, someone like Anne Davis would no longer be here to
give the input to the Commission on State, and National events as
far as legislation in the industry.
Mr. �doravetz stated that he would like the Commission to look at
that statement that had been prepared on the �conomic Impact,
that this legislation would have on the City. (See Attachement)
Mr. Kaspszak then stated that according to this statement, the
Commission would get about $5,000.0� and that the City Council
had aggreed in January to one of the amendments, that this money
would accrue to the Commission to do as it vrill with it. He further
3F
stated that it is his feeling that the Commission should use
some of that money to promote local access. Mr. Kaspszak then
5tated that at todays going rate, the Commission would have
$17,000.00 and that amount would do the job of promoting local
access, as the Commission invisions it. He stated that if this
Bill is passed, and what the Bill is trying to do, is eliminate
1% of that amount, that would be enough to kill local access.
B. t�emo to Cityi�anager Regarding the Proposed Cable Service
Territory (CST's). (See Attachment)
Mr. Kaspszak apologized to the Commission members for not passing
this letter along to all the menibers for their approval, but
because of a time element, he stated „ the letter was drafted and
sent. He further stated that the City Council did approve the
Commission's recommendation on this matter.
Mr. Chevalier stated that at this time he agreed with the rec-
commendation of the Commission, but that his feeling was, if this •
Bill in i:he legislature should pass the City may be without
sufficient funds, and might want to l002: to other Cities �to
possibly merge.
C. Letter from Douglas Hedin Regarding Preemption of Pay
Cable Regulations. (See Attachment) ,
Mr. Kaspszak stated that he felt that this letter from ty4r. Hedin,
spoke for itself.
4. Mr. Kaspszak stated that at this time he wouZd like to skip
item ,�4, and go on to the other agenda items, because he felt
that item �#4 might entail a long discussion, so that it may be
better suited as the last order of business.
RECEIVE REPORT ON N.F.L.C.P REGIONAL MEETING
Mr. Belgum reported to the Commission that in some respects the
meeting was so technical that he felt lost. He stated that he
was impressed with the fact that there was thi's National Federation
of Local Programmers, and he had been unaware of their existence
for the year that he has been on the Commission. bir. Belgum
.Pa�'e 8 CATV Comm3.s;�ion Meetin� - MaY 9. 1979
hr3ndod out to the Commission members i;he information items that
he had received ai; the N.I'.L.C.P. rneetin�. Mr. Belgum stated that
he felt, that if there was anywhere to go to learn more about
Cable programming, it was Toronto, Canada, which is a very
fertile place in regard to what they have,�and are doing with
programming.
Mr. �loravetz wanted to add, that in Toronto, what.they have done
is bring a porta-pack camera out to the public on the street,
and let them use it. They tlien can watch the playback as a
group in someones home. etc. This gets the group together to watch,
and also introduces them to Cable, and involves them in the
Access prograrnming. He further stated that in Toronto, they
have such a demand, that they are not able to keep up with it.
Mr. n�oravetz stated that he felt that in local origination, or
public Access,.it was important that it cover all facets of the
community.
- DZr. ?�oravetz also stated that he had sat in on sessions dealing
with Funding. He stai;ed that he has infarmation on how to apply
etc, and other information on funding that will be useful when
the time presents i.tself.
Mr. Belgum questioned what was different about the Canadians in
their philosphy, or in the policy of the government to get the
enthusiasm that they have behind public interest programming?
Mr. �foravetz answered that it wasn't the Cable Companies that
generated the enthusiasm, but the public.
Mr. Eddy responded also saying, that here in Fridley, there is the
opportunity also to do what Toronto has dane, .and he would go on
record to say that the Company will be 100� behind the City.
6.. OTHER BUSINESS
bYr. Moravetz wanted to state that regarding the rewrite sheets
of the 1934 Communioations Act that he had passed out. (See
Attachment) He stated that in the last month, three Bills have
3G
1'a�e 9 CATV Commission t+�e�tin� Ma.Y_qt 1979
boen issued Uy the Senate, and the Con�ress in order to rewrite
this Act. }ie further stated thst these three Bills diifer, but
they have one common factor in that they all de-regulate, and
decrease the power of the citizens, to have input ini;o the
means and methods of inessage transmissian. These IIills are
also based on the idea that the market place would decide the
use of technology. .
I�9r. Kaspszak stated that since none of the Commission members
have had a chance as of yet to read this handout on the 193�
Communications Act, that he would suggest that the Commission
read it, and if they have any strong f'eelings on it, as he felt
that he might, that they should then call a meeting, axid discuss
it, and they might also want to notify the Congressmen, and
Senators, and that they could do that at a meeting.
� u,
�Zr. Kaspszak asked if Mr. S�lzart vrould inform the Commission
on the first program thai� is novr be3.n� planned and referred to

the Commission encouraged the An.oka County [�lorkshop to prepare
a proposal for funding oi' a iulltirne access coordinator, the
Commission had a copy of this proposal before them. (5ee Attech
ment). i�lr. Kaspszak stated that Yte had gone over this proposal
with :�Ir. Nee, and that ;ti7r. Nee had some suggesstions, �vhich
were conveyed to P�Ir. Balzart. is7r. Kaspszak �Ghen asked if
t1lr. Balzart tia�ould outline the suggesstions that t+ir. Nee had mafle.
P�fr. Bal.zart utated that t.he primary reco.runendation tvas that the
IVorkshop establish a budget. he stated that i�7r. Nee alsc
suggested that they come up vrith a time frame for the bud�;et.
FJIr. Balzart stated that he had talked to t'Qark Scott, and tl�at
I�'tr. Scott had suggessted that the budget be set up for a one-
year period. He further stated that he and DZr. Scott are now
busy drawing up a budget proposal, that would.be submitted to

Mr. Kasp:,zak si;ai:ed that he feli; that vir. Nee also wanted to know
the board of direci:ors, and the by-laws of the Anoka County Work-
shop, so that the Council could see what the purpose and goals
of the Workshop are.
Mr. Kaspszak stated that they further feli; that they should find
out what er.perience Bloomin�ton has had in terms of their work-
shop, and if in fact the City of'Bloomington did allocate money
directly to their workshop.
�+4r. Chevalier stated that with all the talk about Public Access,
and Local Origination, and on trying to bring tkie community into
the Cable TV programmming, that i;he Commission has its hands
i:ied by being just Commi.ssion members in that not being able to"
just get out and get the job done, because most of the members
fulltime jobs. P�ir. Chevalier further stated that the resuZt is
that the Commission ends up being an a.dvisory commission, or a
sort of vaatchdog on how the franchise is ha�ldled for the City o£
Fridley. Pdr. Chevalier stated that he felt that getting a
coarciinator was the fir:>t step that the Commission could take to
actually get anything off the ground, that the Commission has
been tallcing about for a long time. islr. Chevalier stated that
if the Commission gave the recommendation to the City, he would
approve that they give them a timetable of approximately one year.
He further stated that he was not certain that there was a reason
to change the name of the workshop at this time, but to �'ind out
how the Council felt, and change it if necessary.
Mr. Eddy stated that he felt that the City possibly could be able
to find someone fresh out of College, that was energetic and
committed to the cause of Cable, who:would work for a relatively
lower salary.
Mr. Eddy stated that what happened in Bloomington, which may not
necessarily be the right way for Frid].ey, was that in the beginning,
the Bloomington CATV met and realized that they should not delegate
responsibility at that time, so that they took it upon themselves
to form the Board of Directors of the Video Center right out of
the Commission Board so that was a committment on the part of the
,

CATV Commission right away, and then,they vrrote up their propasal,
which was well writi:en, and well thou�;ht out, and written by
business men who didn't leave many loopYioZes. nr. �ddy stated
that what Bloomington did vras write an actual contract with the
City to pro�ram the I'ublic Acces� Channel, of the Bloomington
Cable TV 5ystem, in which they stated that if you give us this
amount of money, we will do this for you.

not have the t�vo tier service hooY.ed up that he had requested?
P�r. Kaspszak stated that because of the coming summer months,
he felt, that he wouldn't be using the service enough to �varrant
the insl;allation at this time, but would consider it a.gain in the

CITY Of= FRIDLEY
SHADE TREE UISEASE CONTROL PkOGRAM
• Telephone: 571-3450, Ext, 120
Dear. Property Owner:
7his information sheet has been prepared to assist the property owner and to provide
basic information concerning our Shade Tree Disease Control Program for 1979. Your
efforts to aide•and understand this program will be helpful and greatly appreciated.
The City of Fridley is maintaining a Shade Tree Disease Control Program to meet the
requirements of Minnesota State Lavrs and Department of Agriculture Rules and Regulations
concerning the responsibility of the individual municipality in reducing the rate of
spread of Dutch Elm Disease and Oak Wilt. Sectior 104 of the Fridley City Code authorizes
the City Forester/Tree Inspector to serve notice upon the owner of property bearing
diseased, dead or dying trees, or oak and elm taood bark which may serve as a reservoir
of tfie disease or breeding plac.e for disease carrying insects. The Tree Inspector may
enter private property at any reasonable time for inspection. �
Minnesota State Law gives the Tree Inspector the authority to condemn diseased oak
and elm trees from field diagnosis if definitive symptoms are present. When there is
reasonable doubt as to the diagnosis of a given tree, it aaiTl 6e tested by the Depart-
ment of Agriculture and/or University of h1innesota for laboratory confirmation.
Trees which are dead, dying or which have been determined to be diseased are
generally marked with a red or orange "X". Thes2 trees must be ren�oved. Where root
grafting between healthy and diseased trees is suspected, the roots must be separated
either by mechanical trenching or by inserting tl7e chemical VAPAM into tl�e ground.
The grafting separation procedure must be done prior to the felling operation. A VAPAM
treated tree may not be removed for 10 to 14 days after treatment. A tree wi*h a
mechanically trerched root barrier may be cut immediately after treatment. The cost .
per lineal foot for root barriers is:
$1.75/foot for VAPAM; $2.50/foot for mechanical trench.
Some turf damage will occur with a root barrier, See Request and Release Ayreement
for further explanation.
Trees requiring only pruning of dead wood are marked with a"P".
In accordance with these laws, ail diseased trees on private property must be
removed within ten (10) days of official notification. For removai of all diseased
trees, the property otvner has the following alternatives available:
OPTION A: Property owner may choose to fell and cut marked trees, however, state
' law prohibits the transporting of diseased wood by anyone other than a
licensed contractor. If the pro�erty owner wishes to fell the diseased tree and
have the City contractor dispose of the wood, the tree must be cut into sections
no larger than 10 feet and stacked perpendicular at the curb, or the property owner
may choose another licensed contractor for the removal of marked wood. In either
case, all diseased wood must be removed from the property at the property owner's
expense.
OPTION B: Property owner may choose to retain the services of a private licensed
contractor for tree removal. If this option is chosen, the pi•operty
owner will bear lOD� of the cost.
OPTION C: Property owner may choose to have the City contractor remove the
diseased tree. This option will be on a 50" City cost/50% property
ownei- cost in accordance with the cost rate schedule.
OPTION D: For commercial or industrial property, removal of diseased trees
may be accomplished by utilizing Option A, Option a or the City
contractor. However, the State of Minnesota subsidy program does not apply
to commercial and ind w trial property. Therefore, the property owner will be
responsible for 100;6 of the cost,incurred.
The following price index reflects the City's cost for removal of diseased trees
with Tree Removal Service, Inc. This should assist your attempt to estimate the cost
to be incurred for removal of a diseased tree. The base price listed is the City's
cosi of a normal tree removal. Additional percentages as noted will reflect the price
increase accordingly. Diaineter measurement is taken approximately four to five feet
above average ground level.
