Mr. Sobiech stated, in the summer of 1980, there would be a public hearing for the proposed Northtown Corridor. He stated the staff, based on comments from the Parks and Recreation Commission and the Council's concern, will monitor developments and bring tnese to the Council for their comments. MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to receive and concur with the recorrmendation of the Parks and Recreation Commission and instruct staff to continue, as they have been, in staying abreast of the developments. Seconded by Councilman Schneider. Upon a voice vote> all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unani- mously. ' Councilman Fitzpatrick stated he felt one of the concerns of the Commission was that the City didn't formally join the group that hired the consultants for this study. He stated this was partiy because it appeared the crossing would happen farther North then what now might happen. He stated the reason the proposed crossing probably got shifted to the South was there was on one present protecting the interests of persons living to the South. 1 Councilman Barnette stated there was discussion of an exit on East River Road going South which would concern the City. Councilman Fitzpatrick felt staff was aware of the Council's concern and hoped there v�ouldn't be an exit from Highway 10 going South on East River Road. P1r. Sobiech pointed out the Council's feelings were forwarded, by resolution, to the original Planning Committee. Mr. Sobiech stated, in the environmental assessment, they have to review all alternatives and this is in conjunction with the proposed improvements along Highway 10. He pointed out that the City's representative on the County Commission was in favor of i:he original alignment farther North. APPROVAL OF HOCKEY/GENERAL SK�ITING AREAS FOR 1979-1980: Councilman Schneider stated he had communications with Chuck Fagin of the Hockey Association regarding problems last year with use of the Grace High School rink.

Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously. Councilman Fitzpatrick stated he still has a problem with this particular itern. fie felt, however, he would support this proposed schedule for this year to see how it worked. / . REGULAR MEE7IN6 OF JlILY 23, 1979 215 PAGE 3 Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated they would be providing more general skating areas and some a�inor reduction in the hockey area. Councilman Barnette stated the argument for keeping the rink open at Moore Lake is that it is easily accessible, has a large parking area, and is easy to flood. - Ms. Hughes of the Park and Recreation Commission stated there weren't any - agruments about the rfnk closing at Moore Lake because of the low use. She also pointed out that there is a lot of wind at the Moore Lake site �� which makes it not the mast pleasant place to skate. --� Councilman Schneider felt the proposal for relocation of a rink at Stevenson School was a good one. MOTIQN by Council�ran Fitrpatrick to concur with the recommendation of the Parks and Recreation Cormission and confirm the locations for hockey and general skating areas. Seconded by Councilman Schneider. Upon a voice vote, alt voting aye, Mayor �lee declared the motion carried unanimously. Counci�man Schneider requested staff to check on the problems between Grace Nigh School and the Huckey Association and take steps to have these corrected. REQUEST - &RACE EVANGELICAL FREE CHURCH: Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated the church is requesting fencing between their property and the Rark property. He stated the problem seems to be that some of the people using the park also use the church's parking lot and leave debris on the church property. Mr. Qureshi statecf he is not against the City sharing in the cost of the fence, according to the policy, but felt perhaps they should check to see if the City can give them a hand in cleaning the parking lot. He stated he questioned if the fence would really solve the problem. - ��I Councilwoman Moses stated she ca� sympathize with the church because _i people do use their parking lot as the ball diamonds are close to the church property and on the new grass they planted. Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated Council could approve this request so they could proceed, if r�othing else could be worked out.. Councilman Fitzpatrick stated his recollection, from reading the minutes, was debris was oniy part of the problem and the parking in their parking spaces and walking on the new grass was a larger problem. Mayor Nee felt staff could try and work out this problem with the church, if at all possible. MOTION by Councilwoman Moses to receive the letter from Grace Evangelical Free Church. Seconded by Councilman Schneider. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the m�tion carried unanimously. MOTION by Councilman Schneider to concur with the recommendation of the Parks and Recreation Cammission to adhere to the policy and share in the cost of a fence between Madsen Park and the Grace Evangelical Free Church.

RECEIVING HOUSIN6 MiD RE�EVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MINUTES OF JULY 18, 1979: Mr. Sobiech, Public Works Director, stated the meeting of the Housing and Redevelopment Authority rras on July 18 and there was not time enough to have the minutes prepared before this meeting. He stated, however, that Jerry Boardman ►�as tiee staff representative at the meeting and is present to revie�r the items discussed at the meeting. 21F REGULAR MEETING OF JULY 23, 1979 PAGE 4 Mr. Sobiech stated the two items for the Council to consider are execution of � an Agreement of Cooperation between the HRA and.City and execution of an Agreement for Staff Services. He stated the Housing and Redevelopment Authority didn't approve the agreements, but recor�nended amendments. He stated Council should consider the agreements and amendments, and if they concur, they could authorize execution of both agreements, however, if they want comments back from the HRA, this also could be done. Mr. Boardman, City Planner, stated in the Agreement of Cooperation, the only �. change the Authority had was on Page 3, item 5b, to change the word "may" ( to "shall". He stated, under Section 5, if the City issues any bonds , 1 then those are the conditions of the issuance of the bonds, as covered in items 5a, 5b, and 5c. Councilman Fitzpatrick asked if the Council was to adopt this agreement, as it is before them this evening, if that would be the final action. Mr. Boardman stated the HRA is waiting for Council action on these agreements. He�stated the HRA hasn't taken final action because they are waiting for Council action. Mayor Nee stated he had no problem with use of the word "shall" as he felt this was the way is should read anyway. _ Councilman Barnette questioned, under Section 2 of the agreement, the interest involved. Mr. Boardman stated the interest will be paid by the tax increment district. Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated in the Agreement for Staff Services, under Item la, they wanted an actual budget provided. Mr. Boardman, City Planner, stated under Item ib of the Agreement for Staff Services, the HRA wanted the authority to approve the Executive Director, since this will be the person who will be dealing with the HRA. Mr. Boardman �1 stated the only other modification that was made is under Item 3H � of the Agreement for Staff Services and concerning cancellation. He stated the � cancellation clause was-broken into two parts, for the Executive Director and cancellation for the agreement. Councilman Schneider questioned if the HRA could chose to cancel this agreement, without Council approval, and if they could hire their own staff. 1 Mr. Boardman stated they could do this and pay for the staff through the project. He stated they have this authority under legislation. Mr. Boardman stated staff services are separated from the project itself because there may be other projects the Authority may get involved in. Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, pointed out if they get involved in other projects, they have to have some way to finance the staff and they may not have this, unless it is set up for tax increment. Mayor Nee felt the Council has a great deal of leverage over actual conduct of their affairs. Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated an example of control would be zoning, tax increment financiny> which has to be approved by the Council, and any kind of public improvements. He felt, if the same staff is used, hopefully it would tend to minimize conflicts, MOTION by Councilman Schneider to authorize the Mayor and City Manager to enter into the Agreement of Cooperation between thie HRA and the City. Seconded by Councilman Barnette. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Pdee declared the motion carried unanimously. MOTIOPJ by Councilman Fitzpatrick to authorize the entering into the Contract for Staff Services between the HRA and the City. Seconded by Councilman Schneider. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously. ,� .1 � 21?

Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously. • � RECEIVING PNASE II REPORT AND CONSIDERATION OF AUTHORIZATION TO PROCEED WITH • PHASE III OF CENTER CITY DEVELOPMENT PLAN: -, Mr. Boardman, City Planner, stated the yellow document before the Council is �; the actual redevelopment report and has the phases laid out in the back of the document. He stated there is also a gray document which is the computer run-out for cash flow which was done by the League of Minnesota Cities. Mr. Boardman Stated there was first a run on the tax increment project, including the housing project, without any incr.ease for inflation. He explained the second task was the task which included the housing project, with a 2% inflation on'the assessed valuation. The third task was development of an office structure, just North of the City Hall, to get an idea of additional tak increment or bonding potential. Mr. Qoardman reviewed the figures under task l, which used no inflation factor. He explained there is also an analysis of what might•happen if there was a five mill drop, and indications are that the pr.ojects would be viable. He stated, under task 1, they are not including any,land sale and saying they can spend $1,000,000 on this project and still come back with a. payment on the bond issue. . Mr. Boardman stated, under task 2, a 2%-inflation of the .assessed valuation was consi.dered. He stated it shows.wyere the reserve-goes �nd points out they could have an early payback�somewhere in the neighborhood of _ 17 years. _ _ - � _ Mr. Boardman stated, under task 3, if they proceed with the office, under �; tax increment, it shows 1982,1983,and 1984 with no assessed valuations on the project because that is through the construction phase. He stated the �- : • assessed valuation is based on rented office space so they would use the � three year step-up. He stated they are also looking at the land sale of $100,000 and the computer run-out does show that the reserve is still compatible with the project and looking at a$600,000 bonding potential. He stated the computer run-out does give them a look at the viability of the project. Mr. Boardman stated the City would become more •involved in a computer run-out when they have some solid costs.

TO USE BINGO PROCEEDS FOR A NEW ROOF: Mayor Nee stated a request has been received from the Fridley V. F. W. to use some of their bingo proceeds for a new roof. . Mr. Brunsell, City Clerk, stated he had indicated this would require Council approval, however, after reading the statute more thoroughly, he is not sure Council approval is required as this approval is related to new construction vs. repair. Mr. Brunsell stated, in any event, he wanted to make sure the Council • is in agreement with their request to use bingo proceeds for a new roof. He stated the statute provides that they can use bingo proceeds to maintain or � repair real property in use by the orgainization. Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, asked Mr. Brunsell if it was his understanding, if they are allowed to use bingo proceeds for the new roof, it would not interf.ere with their contributing the minimum required by the ordinance for,chariiable purposes. Mr. Brunsell stated that was correct as the V. F. W. has always met or exceeded the requirements of the ordinance regarding charitable contributions. Councilman Fitzpatrick stated, if this is provided for in the statute and the V: F. W. still plans to contribute at least t-he minimum'for charitab7e causes, he would move approval of the request.

Seconded by Councilwoman Moses. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously. . ADOPTION OF AGENDA: Councilman Schneider requested an item be added as follows: "Receiving Letter from Mr. Bob Bryant, 5421 7th Street, Fridley, MN 55432, Regarding a Complaint Against General Television." � MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to adopt the agenda as amended. Seconded by Councilman Barnette. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously. ' OPEN FORUM, VISITORS: Mr. Bryant, 5421 7th Street, appeared before the Council regarding his problem with General Television. He stated he has been in contact with Councilman Schneider regarding this matter and was advised it would be processed through the proper channels. He stated, however, if the Council had any questions he would be happy to answer them. Councilman Barnette questioned what Mr. Bryant's problem was. Mr. Bryant stated he connected with cable television approximately four years ago when he moved to Fridley. He stated he enjoyed the HBO service and, therefore, had the full service installed apprnximately 90 days ago. He stated, after trying this service, he found it was not worthwhile and called to have it dis- connected. He stated he was talked out of this by General Television as they explained they were having new equipment coming in to provide better service, etc. He stated he then continued with the service for another 45 days and there was no increase in service, except the directory service. Mr. Bryant stated his quarrel is that he cannot disconnect from this service and was not informed of this or else he wouldn't have signed up fnr f�ll ser��ice. Mr. Bryant felt he should be allowed to continue with the HBO service only. Mayor Nee felt that Gerieral Television is caught in the middle as it has been the City's view not to permit them to sell HBO service only and this was never permitted under the franchise. He felt the best way to proceed is through the Cable Television Caranission to see if this matter can be handled so it is consistent with the franchise. . � Mr. John Eddy of General Television stated that Mr. Bryant has summed up the problem and hoped the Commission could correct this problem. He felt probably the best way to proceed is with consultation with the Commission in trying to get the matter resolved. REGULAR MEETING OF JULY 9, 1979 PAGE 2 Z�9 Mr. Sryant also requested a copy of the franehise to be mailed to him. He thanked the Council for their time and Councilman Schneider for his advise. Councilman Schneider advised Mr. Bryant that someone from the Cable Television Commission would be in contact with him.

RECEIVING PETITION PJO. 9-1979 REQUESTING IMPROVEMENT OF GLENCOE STREET AT EAST RIVER ROAD: MOTION by Councilman Barnette to receive Petition No. 9-1979. Seconded by Councilman Fitzpatrick. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously. Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated the staff has had meetings with the neigh- borhood regarding their problem and they have also met with personnel in the Crime Prevention Department. He stated a comment was made to the Council to close off the access onto East River Road from Glencoe to lessen the traffic. Mr. Qureshi felt, if the Council wished to proceed in this direction, they should look into a more comprehensive approach regarding traffic patterns for the entire area. He stated because of the lay out of the roadways, it is going to be extremely difficult to minimize traffic on all streets because they are essentially used by local traffic. Councilwoman Moses questioned the proposal for the cul-de-sac. Mr. Qureshi stated this was from the petitioners, but he felt the Safety Department ' would act contrary to this because of getting emergency vehicles in and out of the area. Mr. Sobiech, Public Works Director, felt there probably should be a hearing to discuss the various pros and cons. Councilman Barnette felt they owe the residents something and an opportunity to be heard. Mayor Nee felt it would probably be best to begin with the Community Develop- ment Commission to review this matter. MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to refer this matter to the staff for a report.

Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously. � hir. Qureshi, City Manager, stated this work done by the American Improvement Corporation was not authorized by the City, but by the Islands of Peace Foundation and stated that some of the cost for this improvement has been paid. Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, stated if the facts are developed that the City did not authorize the work, the City probably wouldn't be held liable. He felt, if this matter went to litigation, the City would have a good chance of prevailing. He questioned, however, if there was any moral obligation on the City's part to pay a portion of the claim or come to some compromise. Mr. �runsell, City Clerk, pointed out that there is some interest money that possibly could be used for this purpose. Councilman Barnette felt the City should deal with the Foundation's Treasurer, Mr. Lanyenfeld, to obtain information from them regarding the claim. Mayor Nee felt this matter should be referred to the Islands of Peace for a proposal from ther� on how this should be handled.

PUBLIC HEARINGS: PUBLIC HEARING ON REZONING REQUEST, ZOA#79-02, BY WILLIAM J. HART, 643i I HIGHWAY N0. 65: AND � REC[IVING PETITION N0. 6-1979 IN FAVOR OF REZONING: . AWD RECEIVING PETITION N0. 8-1979 AGAINST REZONING: ' MOTION by Councilman Schneider to waive the reading of the public hearing notiee and open the public hearing. Seconded by Councilman Barnette. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously and the public hearing opened at 7:32 P.M. Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated this is a request for rezoning of property along Highway 65, at 6431 Highway No. 65, to rezone from R-3 to CR-2. A map was presented which indicated the location of the residents who have signed the petition in favor of the rezoning and the location of those who signed the petition against the rezoning. Councilwoman Moses pointed out that the persons ��lho are located adjacent to this praperty at 6431 Highway No. 65 have indicated they were in favor of the rezoning and those which aren't as closely affected have indicated they were opposed. Coiancilman Schneider also indicated he was interested in some of the reactions of the people who signed in favor of the rezoning. He pointed out that two house- holds have signed both the petitions and it was his understanding there was a misunderstanding, when they signed the petition in favor, and they subsequently signed against the rezoning. Mr. Richard Hart, 70 - 66th Way, appeared before the Council to represent his brother, the petitioner, who was out of town. He stated he felt the rezoning would benefit the City by increasing the tax base. He stated the property is presently zoned for multiple residential and didn't feel many of these units were being built because of the high risk. Mr. Hart stated he felt it would be b2i:ter to have an office use on this property> rather than a multiple residential use, because of the location next to Highway 65. Mr. Qureshi stated �his land was originally zoned for residential use and was rezoned up to multiple residential use about ten years ago when a number of similar uses were built south of this property. 2Q6 . PUBLIC HEARING MEE'iING OF JULY 16, 1979 PAGE 2 Councilwoman Moses questioned Mr. Hart's statement regarding the high risk of building multiple units and indicated she felt there was a need for this type of housing in Fridley. D9ayor Nee pointed out the City has much more commercial acreage than perhaps what is needed. Mr. Qureshi stated that 30-40% of the commercial property in the City is un- developed, or underdeveloped, which would allow this type of use and, on the other hand, there are only three or four larger parcels in the City that could be used for multiple housing units. He pointed out, because of the economic situation, there has not been a lot of requests for multiple buildings, but felt those things change and the City should look at a broader view. Councilwoman Moses asked Mr. Hart if his brother had checked into ar�y other areas in the City which would be suitable for use as an office. Mr. Hart stated they looked at property on Osborne Road that was also.zoned residential and indicated they�felt these were good locations because of the exposure. Mr. Russell Burris, 1150 Mississippi Street, indicated he was against the rezoning. He felt the property was suitable for an apartment building and if one was built �here, it would eliminate the need for co�ing back every year before the Council with rezoning requests. Mr. Burris felt, if the property is rezoned, it would be spot zoning and that it is undesirahle, since it would place commercial property next to residentiai. He pointed out that the plan for the property indicates a future service road up to Mississippi and felt this never could be done because of the traffic problems. Mr. Burris also felt the access to this property would be difficult �ecause of the traffic on Highway 65. Mr. Burris stated, if the property is rezoned to currunercial, the whole corner would be destroyed. He indicated the Citv has a shortage of residnetial uses and ample commercial property available in Fridley and was sure another location �ou]d be fiound for this insurance agency. Mr. Clarence Timo, 6517 Lucia Lane, felt the biggest thing with the rezoning was the traffic problem and pointed out it would be spot zoning. Mr. Timo a7so pointed out that there are small children in this area, who live in the apartments, and people living in the area are aware of this and watch out for the children, but if it was rezoned, there a�ould be additional traffic. No other persons in the audience spoke for or against this rezoning reruest. MOTI�N by Councilman Schneider to receive Petition No. 6-1979 in favor of the rezoning and Petition No. 8-1979 against the rezoning. Seconded by Councilman Barnette. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously. Mayor Nee asked if the persons who signed both the petitions were present this �vening and no one carne forth.

PLBLIC NEARI�G ON REZONING REQUEST, ZOA #79-04, BY GRAVES COMPANY, 5701 UNIVERSITY AVENUE: RECEIVING PETITIGN N0. 11-1979 AGAINST REZONING: P10TIOh by Councilman Fitzpat�ick to waive the reading of the public hearing notice and apen the public hearing. Seconded by Councilman Schneider. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, ��ayor Nee deciared the motion carried unanimously and the public hearing opened at 7:50 P.M. h9r. Qureshi> City Manager, stated this is a request to rezone Lot 4, Block 6, City View from R-2 to G 2. He poir�ted out_the owners of this property own three adjoining lots wi�ich are now zoned C-2 and, therefore, they would like this 1.ot rezoned, consistent with the other lots, for purposes of development. He indicated what-they were considering is a donut shop and some office/retail - space. Mr. Qureshi stated the Planning Commission held a public hearing on this r�ezoning request and has recarmiended approval. � PURLIC HEARING MEETING OF JULY 16, 1979 ' PAGE 3 Mr. Tom Langseth, representing the Graves Company appeared before the Council regarding this retuning request. • � . Councilwoman Moses asked if the proposed Mr. Donut Shoppe would be a 24-hour operation. .. , , Mr. Langseth stated it is only proposed at this point and they have not come to any definite terms, therefore, he could not answer at this time. Ile explained they were attempting to fill a small portion of the square footage with a retail merchant in order to make it feasible to put in the entire ( �• developmQnt. He exptained this is a difficult piece of property because it �! is on an island surrounded by three roads. � Councilwoman Moses pointed out that the comments from those opposed to the rezoning was an all-night operation. Mr. Langseth stated no on� had opposed the rezoning at the Planning Commission meeting and this was the first he hadheard that anyone was against it. He pointed out the one person that should be great}y concerned is the resident adjacent ot the property and indicated they have had good relations with her and tend to make this a more pleasing situation than what is presently there. Mayor Nee questioned the traffic flow. Mr. Langseth stated, aiith the new service road coming in from the South, it was suggested thai their curb cut be moved to line up with this service road from Super America. He indicated there would then be ingress and egress on to 57th Avenue from both di.rections. Ms. Grace t4athisen, 348 57tfi Place, questione� where the service road was to be located. Mr. Qureshi pointed out the location on the map and indicated • it would be South of.57th Avenue: . •Mr. [,.angseth stated the only thing that would affect F•ts. t;athisen's property is that the fence would be moved 30 feet. lie explained that nothing would change as far as roads on her property or the Graves property. _ 2��'= ; ( Mr. Carl Paulson, 430 57th Place, stated that one Lhing that concerns the residents j; is that they don't have sufficient information as to the future of the property. � He indicated they don't know if there �vill be all-night o�erations and when he sat� the drawing, there v�as an office building separated into three parts and something said about a donut shop. He felt all things have to be considered including the traffic, aesthetics and parking. Ms. Mathisen pointed out that persons living on 4th, 5th and 6th Streets are affected by the traffic when the drive-in theatre is in operation. She stated there is no sufficient service road alon g University Avenue to take care of the traffic and it all comes down into the residential area. Mayor Nee stated, to some extent, the off-set that will be part of the Super Amcrica Development �vould make that service road more useable. Mayor Nee stated he felt this development would be better for the neighborhood than wiiat presently exists. Ms. Mathisen stated she agi�ees a new building would look better, but some of the residents felt there should probably be an apartment buildin9 on this property, as it is zoned for nwltiple use. P1r•. Qureshi stated there are now three lots zoned conunercial and pointed out the property owner could conein and request a donut shop operation because there is enough land. ;� Mr. Gordon Jorgenson, owner of property at 5644 4th Street, stated all the informa- ; tion that �vas sent out indicated it 1•:ould be an office buildini� and not a retail esiablishr�ent. He stated he canvassed the persons living in his building and they had no abjections to an office buildin9, but when a siyn went up regardi,iy retail operatic�ns, he received calls from his tenants WI10 h'�1'C against • a retail operation. Fle pointed out, wlien the plan for Super America went through, i:here were restrictiuns placed on the hours of operation. He stated there is a lot of noise now in the area and his tenants are concerned about additional noise pi�oblems. Mr. Jor9enson stated he didn't feel the new service road would alleviate any traffic problems, as no one would drive thcre, ur�less they want to get to the establishments fronting on it. � � I . , • � 20f3 PUQLIC NEARING M[ETING OF JULY 16, 1979 . PAGE 4 Mr. Jorgenson fclt the ideal establishment at this intersection would be one. that didn't generate much traffic, but didn't feel there is a way to limit it to this type of operation. Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, stated there is a situation here where three out of the four lots are already zoned con�niercial and that, in his mind, makes it tionsiderably different than if the request was to rezone all four � lots. t�e stated a convnent was make that this would be a good location for an apartment> but he questioned if it would be because of the amount of traffic. He stated, from the discussion, his impi°ession is that the residents are ubjecting to the possibility of an all-night operation and the possibility of a bar or liquor operation, as noted in the petition. Mr. Nerrick suggested that staff ineet with the petitioners, who are requesting the rezoning, to see of they would agree to same kind of contract zoning that would give them re*ail on this lot, with some type of limitations as to the type of retail operation. He fett this may satisfy the petitioners, as well as the fears of a number of the residents. Ms. Mathisen stated most of the people indicated tl-�ey wouldn't want any operation that might have liquor or a s.2 establishment. She stated they were satisfied with an office building, but found out the office building was a minor part of the development and this is why they are objecting. Mr. Langseth stated they have examined many options and are not attempting to slide something in. He stated the purpose was for an office-retail and they are limited to 21 parking stalls. He pointed out this would then 'eliminate any beer or liquor operation since they could only have 60 seats. Mr. Langseth questioned Mr. Herrick if he was referring to the lot in question in the rezoning or to all the lots, as far as limiting what type of operation would be permitted. r1r. Herrick stated tiahat he was saying is that perhaps in order to get this lot rezoned, the owners might be willing to restrict the commercial use of the property to certain types of commercial activities. He indicated it wouldn't make sense to apply only to the lot in question, but would have to apply to all four lots. Mr. Langseth pointed out there has been a substantial amount cf time spent on the proposal beforE the Council as to what would be best for the City. He stated all he can say is he doesn't believe the type of operations they put in would substantially increase the traffic flow. He stated, with the size of the building they are co��sidering, and with the rarking allotment, it would restrict them as to what type of business could be put on the property. He pointed out many of the fast food establishments couldn't exist �aith only 21 parking stalls so it is limited to office, with a small retail operation. He stated they didn't mean to imply i;hey are looking for retail merchants> as the di-awing shows that 2/3 of the space will be used for offices. Coi!nciliiian Schneider, questioned the need for a retail operation. Mr. Langsetl� stated they are looking for a retail operation to make it feasible. He stated, basically, a retail operation ti•rould pay a heavier price tag because of the exposure. He stated arly quick stop type of operation can a1: least p�°oject a reasonable husiness. .. Mayor Nee felt it was desirable to get something done with that piece of property and to eliminate the present structure. Ms. P1athisen felt the residents have to kno��i, before the buildings are constructed, what is goin9 Lo gn in on the ��roperty. She pointed out there have been three businesses thcre at this lacation that have failed. PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF JULY 16, 1979 209 PAGE 5 Councilman Barnette felt, as long as the zoning was correct, it was the owners choice, under free enterprise, to take the chance of a business at this location. Couniclman Barnette stated, after hearing all sides, he personally sees the developmertt as an upgrading of the area, not with- standing the traffic problem. Mr. Jorgenson felt his desires and those of his tenants would be satisfied if they could agree to the hours of operation of a.business at that location. i-�• ' Councilman Schneider stated he tends to feel that anything within reason �; is better than what is existing now on the property. He believed the issues the residents were concerned about were the possibility of a liquor operation, the traffic, the noise, the aesthetics and hours of operation of a business at this location. Mayor Nee asked if this could be negotiated regarding the limiting of the hours of operation and agreeing to no liquor sales. Mr. Langseth stated he would talk to his clients, however, speaking from his knowledge, the liquor would be no problem. He felt to go any further to limit that prop�rty, based on one lot out of the four, is limiting or possibly negating the economic feasibility because they would be limiting the use of the property. He feTt, not from the standpoint of going against what has been discussed, but it would be difficult to limit that property as far as hours of operation. He stated they have tried to come up with the best possible solution for this corner and for the City's use. �r. Langseth stated he would be willing to meet with the residents to explain to them the Mr. Donut operation. • Mr. Paulson stated the one thing that triggered this petition was that this was to be an office buildingyperiod. He stated the letter came out that this was to be an office building. He stated the people are concerned and they wouldn't have filed the petition if they weren't. He felt the letter was in error as it stated it was an office building. MOTION by Councilman Barnette to receive Petition No. 11-1979 against the rezoning. Seconded by Councilman Schneider. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously. No other persons in the audience spoke for or against this rezoning request. MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to close the public hearing. Seconded by Councilwoman Moses. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously and the public hearing closed at 8:55 P.M. Councilman Barnette stated he has the tendency to agree with the proposal as presented. He felt it was an upgrading of the area, and a possibility of limiting the hours could be discussed with whatever tenant would go in at this location. He stated, generally, he was in favor of the proposal, with possibly some agreement regarding hours of operation. Councilman Fitzpatrick indicated he agreed with councilman Barnette's statements. He felt the staff could communicate with the petitioners regarding the discussion that took place this evening. Couniclwoman Moses stated it is resolved in her mind that there wouldn't be any liquor operation. She stated she can see the residents' viewpoints �., on the hours, but couldn't see what would be attracting that much traffic. She felt the ecor,omic feasibility has to be taken into account for Mr. Langseth's clients. She felt she would like to see something go in at this locasion, rather than dropping the entire plan because of the hours of operation. � 3 I ; i i � � _ ----- Mr. Qureshi stated the staff would check to see what type of flexibility their plan might have, before Council takes action at the next meeting. Councilman Barnette stated that Mr. Jorgenson and Ms. Mathisen have been in attendance at all the hearings regarding development on that corner and felt they, as well as the other residents, should be kept informed. 2 1 0 pUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF JULY 16, 1979 PAGE 6 PUBLIC HEARING ON VACATION REQUEST, SAV #79-02, CITY OF FRIDLEY, UNIVERSITY ' SERVICE ROAD: — MOTION by Councilman Schneider to waive the reading of the public hearing notice and open the public hearing. Seconded by Councilman Barnette. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously and the public hearing opened at 8:58 P.M. Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated this proposal was approved a year ago for the Super America operation, but the roadway was actually owned by the State Highway Department and it took this long to complete negotiations. i Ne stated the City now has control of the roadway and the proposal is to i vacate these easements and make exchanges of property in order to realign { the service road. Councilwoman Moses stated it was brought up by Mr. Jorgenson and Ms. Mathisen that traffic from the drive-in theatre goes down 4th, 5th and 6th Streets and was wondering how much other use the frontage road would get past Motor Valet. She felt possibly, when this service road is completed, the South end of 4th, 5th and 6th Streets, could be closed off to try and eliminate some of this traffic through the residential areas. Mr. Qureshi pointed out the traffic problem is only a few months out of the year when the drive-in theatre is open. He felt is this was done, there may be another problem with vehicles using these streets,�having to find a place to turn around. Mayor Nee thought perhaps if people didn't start using the service road when it is completed, some temporary blocking at the South side of 4th, 5th and 6th Streets might help solve some of the traffic pro6lems in this residential area. Councilman Barnette felt possibly something temporary could be done from � May to September when the drive-in is in operation. Mr. John Lynch, 5649 University Avenue, and one of the owners of Motor Valet, i indicated he was confused about the plan for the service r�ad, since the � last plan he has seen shows that their sign would be right in the middle of the service drive. He stated it seemed they are losing more property than what they were originally considering. Mr. Lynch stated the present . drawing is different than the one they had seen last January. Mr. Qureshi stated there has been no change and this was the plan the City has been working on for a long time. Mr. Qureshi asked if they were aware of the plan when they put up the sign. Mr. Lynch stated there was conversation about the service road, when they applied for the sign permit. Ne didn't think, however, they were going to take that much land or else he wouldn't have put up the sign. Mr. Qureshi stated, in looking at this proposal, he fe7t it would help the M��tor Valet property since they would have better access. Mr. John Pomaville, 5649 University Avenue, felt what they would be giving up and what they are rece9ving Wasn't fair compensation. Mr. Qureshi stated that staff would have to meet with the property owners regarding this matter. Councilman fitzpatrick stated in the case of Parcel 2, it is cut off completely from the rest of the property and it seems to him that putting this parcel j in private hands would raise the question of the kind of use it wouTd have. � Mr. Qureshi stated this would have to be checked into and possib7y have some covenants placed on it. He pointed out there would be two readings of the ordinance before the land is vacated, and at this point> it is just the public hearing for the vacation. No other persons in the audience spoke regarding this vacation. t � l .J � � f 1 �, PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF JULY 16, 1979 PAGE 7 �11 MOTION by Councilman Barnette to close the public hearing.

Some time ago, the City was going to be:on the Committee, but, but had opted out because the alternatives didn't affect Fridley. Not it seems there are alternatives that would affect Fridley. They now have �ahat is called the "First Level Evaluation". Some citizens are concerned about this Uecause they fear this will be their only opportunity to provide input. Actually, this was incorrect. There are new guidelines from the Council of Environment,al Quality, National Environmental Policy Act. This has created a new environmental impact review process. The "First Level Evaluation involves the public and narrows the number of alternatives. The public wi.11 be involved through- out the whole process. They will not be excluded after this first process. The main thing he wanted to assure the Commission was that Staff would be notified of all future meetings regarding this. A decision has not been made and would probably ' depend upon the decision for T.H. ��10. •- Mr. Harris asl�ed what, the southern most alternative was? He z�ras concerned about Coun-L-y Road 132.

Mr. Deblon stated that: in the EIS, there were probably impacCs on adjacent wetlands and Sprin� Brook that would have to be miti.gated. Moreover, the Fish and Wildlife and the Deparment of t�atural Resources (DNIZ) have expressed concern for the wetlands, wildlife anci drainage affeceed by Lhe action. The EIS takes into account their recommendations., Mr. Deblon stated L-h�it the main effect of the action on Fridley would lie xelated to run-oif. Run-off "��ill flow to exi.sting wetlands and constpuction ponding axeas adjacent to the corr:idor". The r.un-�off would then be carried away by creeks such as Spring Brook. Tht� relocat"ion of T.H. ��10 would cross Spring Bxook at tfie Polk Street intersecti.on. At this crossing,_the "channel and fiydraulic characteristics af this stream woiild be preserved in the design of the crossing, and monitoring would be done to determine the effectiveness of erosion controls during construction". In regard to water quality, "the filling of existing�we�:lands (known to remove a variety of potential }�olutants by means of physical entrapment, microbial transforma- tion and biolo�ical �utilization) will lower �vater qualtiy. However, the proposed action does offer th�e opportunity to restore wetland functions in ar•eas (i�e. embank- ments and drainage f,acilities can be used to impound water). Mr. Harris stated that a major source of pollution was Salt from highways. Mr. Langenfeld state�'. that he f.elt they would be grossly affected by this, especially in regard to �oatex �iiality and pollution and also that Coon Rapids would be faced with q�iite a situation as things continue. He stated that he had little faith in the DNR. Also, on page �;ix of the minutes he had indicated that he hoped somebody from Fridley would be rep��esenL-ing the City. Mr. Deblon sLated that Staff will represent the City in all highcaay construction proposals affecting Fridley. Ms. Schnabel asked ij_ the current T.Ii. ��10 was upgraded, would there be any adverse effects or any impac7: on Fridley? Mr. Deblon stated that construction would increase the turbid.ity of Spr:ing Brook but that �ould be minimized b}� diversion ponding and other techniques. B�.at this incr.ease i.n turbidity would only be during the ini_tial constructi�n. Also, if th�re is a lot of snowfall, it might cause the use of more salt. The highwa}�z��uld be upgraded to freeway standards. Ms. Schnabel stated t.hat she thought in was incredible that the State was considering even buil.d�ng a new free�aay with the price of gasoline going up and with the new attitude tot�ard public transporation. Ais. Hughes asked �ahich alternative seemed most likely. Mr. Deblon stated L�iat the �IS portrayed the new construction as bein� the Uest alternative for the conununities involved. r1s. Schnabel said the City sliould stay on top of it regardless of which , alternative �aas decided upon. Mr. Deblon st�ted tk�at statf was not enclorcin� any of the alternatives, but was att:empLi.n�; to �valua.te the effects on Fridley. lie concluded atliat: 1) tliere was a need f.or acti�n tc� alleviaL-e the traffic volume probl.em, 2) lh��re would Ue effects on wetlands and Spr�ng l3roolc, hawever measures are �?OlIl�' to Ue take to minimi�e effect: a;1d, 3) whatevcr ali:ernaCive was cliosci�, tl�e City slioul.d ensure that necessary measur.es, ari tal�ei� 7:o mininiize the effrcts. on SPxi_i�fi 13roolc.

PLI1N DIRECTION • . � . Mr. Iiarris stated tha't the last paragraph in Plan Direction bothered him. He stated it s�ras a general �tater�ent and he was not sure it was true in al]. cases. Ms. Schnabel stated t:nat she had noted a tendency. to become preack�y. She did not feel. that this wa� �what P�,etropolitan Council was lookiz� for. She felt it wa� a�ood er,ercise �to serve as a background, but was not sure it was what N�et. Council. would be looking ior. They would want the facts. Mr. Deblon stated that their audience was Net. Council, the Commissioners and the general publ.ic. The plan should be something . everyone could relate to. Mr. T3arris again referred to the I.ast.paragrap}.1 under Plan Direction and stated that he felt it w�s an ovexsimplification. Nlso Hu;hes suf;gested they try to make th� sta'tement a].ittle more positive. Mr. Oquist stated it �•ras a tota7.ly negative s�tatement. He did not feel it was a true sentence.

Mr. Franzex� stated the�y were looking at bicycle and pedestrian movement and exp�ndin� bicycle and pedestrian accessibil�ty to tlie shopping areAS� ete. Mr, iiarris asked ii ttiey were proposin� the City �et into the transit business? h1r. Franzen stated thE:y were not. � Mr. Lan�enfeld stated it could mean improving the existing MTC system. Ms. Hu�,hes agreed and added it cnuld be an addition of cross-town movement. Mr. Franzen stated that they do mention �h.at �they would li.k�e to expand the AgCC service . Mr. Hmrris asked if the question of energy was addressed in the book. Mr. Franzen stated they addressed tha� in four or five different places and also in the site plan.review process. �l MAIPtTAIN]Z�G ECOT�C�r�1IC ST�3IZITY Al�ID DTVERSITY: � I�',r. Zangenyeld referz•ed to the Z�th para6raph and stated that he like the general statement but questic>ned the last sentence in that paragraph. That last sentence could raise all kind:� of questions. . Mr. Oquist stated he had no problem with i-b, but when they start txying to clarify statements in a susr��r, they should be careful. There are a lot of ilower statements in the doc:urr�ent and this sentence is one of them. I�3aybe they should 1eaYte it out. . � Mr. Harris agreed anci sug�ested they delzte it. Ms. Schnabel sta�Led �that each oi the six issues listed should correspond to a specific section a'nd perhaps th° titles should be the sam�e. The way it is layed out� it is difficult to follo�•r. For instance, "Revitalization of C�mmercia7. Areas" is under the Land Us° section. The titles should correspond. Mr. Deblon stated that was a�ood point and woua.d look into clarii'ying that. r�., a flt�hes stated -tl,.ere slzould slso �� consistency in -the wordin�. For example, they use "I4,aintaa.ni.r..�" a.n one t�.tle and "Pevi�talization" in anotl�.er o To be consisi,en�L, "I�evit��l.ization" should be "Rev�.�ulizin�'t� etc. She also found a prol.�lem with tl-ze �aordiii; oi' �he title £or th� housii7� section.

Iiu�heu stated that she felt water quali�Ly was a major concern nnd probably � should rio�; be under the sewer section. � Mr. Harris referred to the first paragraph under this item and stated that the �+�3`p" fi�ure bothered h.im. He �sked if tha� fi�ure �ras developable land or total . industrial land. Thexe is a 10�; of indus�;rial zoned l�znd in Fridley that is not buildable such as tYie r�ilroad land.

Iie sugges�;ed that a inventory of the industria� 1�nd in I'ridley be tal:en and broken dcwn accordir.g to railroad land� buildable land and unbuildable 1and. Wii;h this figure, we would be kidding ourselves as to how much land is aj�ailable to be rezoned to residential� which is what we are� talking about. We need more speciiic fi�ures. The Co*rmissioners cor.�curred. � Ms. Schnabel asked if' we were talking about econom,ic diversity? Mx. Franzen stated tk�at meant tha't it would not be good.for the City to be dependent upori one large compar�y -that coul.d decide to pull out. Mr. F`ranzen asked if there were ar�y significant issues that were not addressed in the Overview? � Ms. Hughes stated tha� water quality was the onl.y thing she felt was left out. A4r.

Ms. Hu�hes stated tha�t one criticism she woul.d have for this kind of section and the one on critical a:reas is that while she agrees you have to manage and control those words�imp]y ove:r-manage and over-control. Ms. Schnabel suggeste+�. they use the words preserve and protect. Mr. DeUlon agreed and stated �that in order to pr�serve or protect something� you have �Lo manage a.�.

Mr..

See�;er stated that she attended a meet-ing on Monday night which involved a t�roposal that the Nortlitown Corr.i.clor crossing swin�; down and cross on 8Sth. To her knowledge, the City of T'ridley had chosen not to Ue included in this study because (from t�hat information she had gat-hered) tuey thought the crossin� was boing to be further north. Now, a group of consultants that were hired have come u�p with four alternatives, one of which is crossing way down and very close to Fridley. This does concern r�-�al�y residents in that one of Fridley's parks is very close. Ms. Seeger stated that at the meeting on Monday night, one of the things the consultants said was they were told first and foremost that parks were of the utmost importance and, if at all possible, they were to shy away irom crossing through parks. This was one of the reasons for the realignment of the crossing--because of the Hennepin County parks. Now, they were coming closer to I'ridley�'s parks, and she was a little unhappy that the City chose not to be included in the study. Ms. Seeger stated that as a Parks & Recreation Commissioner, she was alarmed that Fridley was less impo-rtant than the Hennepin County Parlc Reserve. She stated that one su�gestion brought up at the meeting �aas to cross under the ri��er. Considering the cost of the parks and property and the homes this crossing would be taking, this suggestion was not so ridiculous. Ms. Seeger stated she felt the Commission could make some ofii_cial stat2ment to go into the consultants' record that Fridley did have a large investment ixz North Park and should reiteraLe that Fridley's parks are very important and that the impact is for a much longer distance than what the consultants are saying--300 feet: - Ms. Hughes stated she thought tlie Commission certainly should recogni.ze the problem aaad officially ask f or more information. PIs. See�er stated that several cities, IIennepin County, Anolca County, and MnDOT, and rietropolitan Council hired this consultant and now this consultant has conie in taith their input. She felt the Conunission should ask for one of those r�ports . She would also 1�lce the Conmlission to malce a statement to the consultants that the Commission does not think the soutli corridor is envirorunentally safe. She would also reconimend that the City get involved in Lhat study, ri0TI0N by Betty� Tiech that the Parlcs & Recreation Commission send a letter directly to the cousultants stating that tlie Commission is concerned �aith tlie NOI'tI1C.0\1tl bridge crossing and its impact on I'ridley's parks . Seconded by Jan Seeger. , r1r. Iioudreau stated he felt just malcing City Cauncil aware of this and that the Conuuissiou t11S somc very st-ron� cc�ncerns as a park advisory caTUnission in that the Cit�� shoulci nuike aLl ..�ttempts to fiet involved directly, wherever passiUle,aL thc earliest possiblc� time, c�u1d be a recommendation that could come L-rom this Cotmnission. lle coulcl try to set it on Lli�.

This ycar tliey were goinb L-o try scheduling all house league hockey gamcs at the two Conunons rinks. A1.1 girls Uroomball games wi11 be played at Locice Park. So, pr.imarily, they will Ue using only four rinks for organized tiocicey, as opposed to eight rinlcs last year. This should also open up more rinks for community use. They would also use two other rinks for practice for traveling teams only; however, he did not know to what extent the traveling teams would use the rinks. Mr. B�udreau stated he was suggesting 20 general ice areas as outlined on the attached map, trying to put a general rink into each section of the City, is possible. This }�ear they were eliminating the use of Moore Lake and instead were trying to develop a piece of ice at Iiaclunan Park. He . stated that many of the general ice areas were divided �vith snow berms with general slcating on one side and hocicey on the other. Mr. Boudreau stated they a7,so have a major change in tlie location of the hockey rinks. They are sug�esting thae they cut the rink out of Sylvan and Logan Park and combine these two rinks inte one and relocate at Stevenson School. The p2incipal at Stevenson School is happy to have such a facility for use during the day for the school children and in the evening for the hockey pZayers.

Asst. Mr. Charles Boudreau City of Fridley Parks and Recreation Departrnent Fridley, Minnesota 55432 Dear Mr. Boudreau: A Friendly Bible-Centered Church �� , �55-73rd Avenue f:ortheast Minnoapolis, t+N 55d32 Church Phone: 794_7d99 .lune 13, 1979 As Chairman of the goard of Grace Evangelical Free Church, at 755-73rd Avenue, N.E., ! have been requested to submit a proposal to you for installing a fence between Madsen Park and our church property. We have had numerous problems with individuals using Madsen Park. I shall attempt to enumerate a few problems that come to mind. . First of a11, summer softball and various park activities result in individuals parking in our lot and walkiny or riding bicycles and motorcycies on newly seeded grass areas. This is particularTy difficult with spinning fiires an� a residue of broken beer bottles and cans and pop can,. I have personally had to clean up broken glass and cans on many occasions. We have regular services on 5unday and Wednesday evenings, and if we did not barricade our driveway, we would have a tot full of cars belonging to park users. Many times the park lot is empty and cars have moved in on our lot. No one responds too I<indly when they are asked to move their cars. We have tried to rope off the ar-ea, but it serves as no deterrent since people knock it down and walk all over our property on their way to the park. Secondly, we have completed a new �:,ilding and a beautification program but have become extremely frustrated trying to estabtish grass and shrubbery. With the wide open area of our property and the park, a third probiem emerges in the f-act that vandals can break windows in our church buses and quickty vanish into the park area without being hindered by any barriers. We have evidence in our new blocktopped parlcing lot to show damage caused by park users. We have appreciated ihe excellent cooperation your Department has exter�ded to us over the years. We feel you are aware of our problems. � We do feel that a chain link fence between the twc� properties would greatly case our problem. Therefore, we wauld )ike to offer the following proposal: , � Mr. Charles Boudreau P� June 13� �979 We would like to request that the City of Fridtey and our church share � in the cost of constructing a chain link fence that would be four feet in height and 405 to 410 feet in length with no gates or openings in the entire distance. We woutd estimate the cost to be about $5 per lineal foot. Con- sequently, the project would cost each organization approximately $1,025 • each. We feel that a faur-foot high fence would not detract from either property but would be an effective discouragement from vandaj�izing our property. We would appreciate your prompt attention to this matter. Thank you so much for your consideration of this matter.

I am attaching a copy of the letter from our consultant on the Center City Project noting the completion of Phase II and requesting approval to begin Phase III. Phase III is the produciion of a Development Prospectus and notication of private investors inviting development proposals. It is a� vital step in the implementation process for the completion of the Center City Project and should begin as soon as possible. We have received and reviewed the Phase II report and the financial planning report, and feel they adequately fulfill the contract obligations and gives us a good indication of the financial viability of the project. The HRA have received these documents and should be submitted to the City Council �o be received at their July 23, 1979 meeting. � JLB/de d 0 � � 5 ; ,� , . 602 south 2nd street, mankato, mn. 56001 professional ��i� planning t a�� ; �, � ::� �� and �!�...� developmen� �o. T0: Mr. Jerry Boardman, City Planner DATE: June 13, 1979 RE:. Phase II Center City, Other T.I.F. Projects � 507-345-1290 The Phase II Center City Project will he completed with the computerized financial planning report and development parcel maps. We expect this work to be completed by the end of Junet�-, Phase III of the Center City Project should begin during July. The production of a Development Prospectus and the contacting of private investors is an important integral element in the revitalization program. Phase III schedule would be: A. July lOth Authorization to begin work. B. August 15th Development Prospectus completed. C. August 30th City aGCeptance of Prospectus. D. September - October 15 Meet with private investors and promote proposals for land re-use. Our recommendation is that during tYiis process of promoting commercial revitalization, the city should determine specific sites other than Center City sites that could be promoted. This strategy should be closely,coordir�ated and'other revi�ali- zation or new development sites should be specifically addressed. By spec�ifically addressed, we are referring to such information as size, costs, methods of financing, availability of site, schedule of availability, land uses desired (specific), and general advantages of the site. Site advantages include generally available data such as traffic counts, distance from interstates, surrounding land uses, population data and needs assessment. There appears to be two logical extensions to the Center City Development Prospectus. The first extensipn is the F.M.C. property. The development opportunities for this property � probably depend more on gaining a specific private�development agreement in a short time period than any other activity. If such an agreement could be gained, the new T.I.F. law appears flexible enough to be used. [ae believe the F.T4.C. property would be a desirable investment by many developers and could be successfully accomplished. As a way of note: P:P.&D. is aware of the many park and develc�pment.discussions concerning 'F.M.C�. property. . � 5� .E- , P�ir. Jerry Boardman, City Planner . June 13, 1979 Page 2 . The other extension to the developm�nt prospectus effort is that property referred to as the Sears site along Old Central Avenue. This property could be parceled into several development sites where the city could exercise more design and development controls. The i.ssues on this site appear to offer the city more time in determining goals, objectives, and methods of financing. � . Our recommendation concerning this discussion is that the City Task Force meet soon and that each of these items be discussed. At minimum, we should make the decision to move into Phase III of the Center C'ity Project. . . ,� , ��. �f � ti � i ,J , `• 602 sUU'fh 2nd street, mankato, mn. 56001 �r�f�;ssion�l � ��°� ��l��nnin� . �, C , �.�� . ,;-�,;;� ,��, �.�' i�)::� � n�� :: � i.. 1,±.

The Center City Project has now been legally established as a redevelopment area. Further, there is a positive determina- tion regarding the financing of major cap�.tal expenditure. ��7e beli�ve thes t�•�o outcomes are of major signa.fxcance and gives the city the impetus to move in�o the implemen�ation of the Center City Project. It is th,erefore, our recommenda- tion that the City Council authorize the commencement of Phase iIT. This is an important �,=ork e1.e:nent that is frequently omi.tted by other munici�alities thus causing non- i�nplementation of plans and und�rutilization of resources. T:he implementation o� the Center City Plan is centered on the performance of the private market �lace. This strategy is a realistic approach to redevelopment as opposed to s��phisticated city design plans. In lieu o� cii:y° d�sign plans, we recommend th�t the city consider �he a�option of °��evelopment standards" or "perf�rmance standards". In e,ss�nce, the adopti.on of development standards will a11ow t:hc H.R.A. and city to establis}z redevelopment goals that a:re flexibl.e enough to Ue achieved by private investors and y�e� restrictive enough to prohibit or discourag� redevelopment eFforts of a marginal nature. T:he creation of deve�opment or performance standards will b�� a pazt of the Phase III wor}c. In adda.tion, Phase III w.ill include: � � I. Development Prospectus � A.

Because of unavoidable delays the grant application will be submitted in August of 1979. The application was prepared in 1978 and construction costs were projected for 1979 dollars.. The application has been rewritten for 1980 construction costs to cover an inflation rate of ten percent (10�). The total grant application has been revised from $663,200 to $737,920, of which the City of Fridley will pay one-fourth (1/4). New monitoring data from 1978 is also being included in the applica�ion. It is expected that the application will proceed rapidly through the Environmental Protection Agency and be approved so that the project may commence in 198�. If yau have any further questions, please feel free to call on me. Sincerely, EUGENE A. HICKOK AND ASSOCIATES � �'-�. . �?�.�Z� Steven J. A�brecht Lab Director SJA/car
