PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE: Mayor Nee led the Council and audience in the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag. ROLL CALL: MEMBERS PRESENT: Mayor Nee, Councilman Fitzpatrick, Councilwoman Moses, Councilman Schneider and Councilman Qarnette MEMBERS ABSENT: None Piayor fdee stated the purpose of the Board of Review is to examine the equity of the Assessor's establishment of market value on a person's property. He stated the Gouncil has some ability to adjust a proposed market value, either up or down, as a result of these proceedings. Mayor Nee stated any questions raised this evening may not be able to be resolved to the owners satisfaction and, therefore, it may be necessary to refer the item to the Assessor to give him a chance to examine the issue. ��iayor Nee stated it is important a property owner make his appeal known at these proceedings in order to protect his further rights of appeal to other bodies. Mr. Mervin Herrmann, City Assessor, stated the Council has the right to raise or lower any particular property, as they see fit, after reviewing the facts. He pointed out they cannot reduce the aggregate assessrrent more than 1%. Mr. Herrnann stated there are representatives from;the County also present ___ here this evening to answer any questions. Mr. Herrmann explained any appeals will be recorded and the property owner will then protect his right to appeal further to the County or State, if they so desire. He stated, if the issue isn't settled with the City, County, or State, the owner can appeal further to the courts. Mr. Larry Vogt, 1357 Fireside Drive, appeared before the Council and stated he felt the City's market value of $73,700 on his home was roughly $10,000 to �12,000 higher than what is reflected in two appraisals he received, one from an appraisal consulting firm and one from.a local real estate appraiser. P4ayor Nee asked when the other two appraisals were done on his home. Mr. Vogt stated one was done on April 21, 1981 and the other on March 14, 19�1. Mr. Mervin Herrmann stated the appraiser did go out last week, and at that time, could see no reason to change the value of $73.700 placed on P�1r. Vogt's home. Mr. Herrmann felt, in this case, he would like this appeal to go to the County for an outside appraisal of the property. Mr. Herrmann gave the Council further informatior on the year the home was built and the size of the garage and home. Mr. Vogt stated beth appraisals he has give comparable sales figures of homes located in the close vicinity. -- _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __._ 1.F�1 BOARD Of REVIEW MEETING OF MAY 11, 1981 PA6E 2 Gouncilman Schneider asked the value placed on the home last year, and Mr. Herrmann stated it was $62,000. Mr. Herrmann pointed out the biggest portion of increase was on the land value in that area. Mr. Vogt stated directly to the west of his home is a double bungaiow and across the street from his lot is a small commercial building. Mr. Herrmann stated he would like to see the appraisals Mr. Vogt has in his possession and he would be mostly interested in comparable sales figures regarding the year in which these homes were sold. Mr. Vogt stated the comparable figures are for homes that have been sold in the last year, and he could provide the information this evening. Mayor Nee stated he felt staff should review this property and pointed out �. the Council was aware of Mr. Vogt's argument and felt he had quite a ' convincing case. ' Mr. Geor e Wicklund, 101 Gibralter Road, stated last year his home was assessed at 43,300 and this year it is at $50,500 which is over a 16-1/2% . increase and quesiioned how they arrived at this figure. Mr. Herrmann, City Assessor, stated the value on Mr. Wicklund's home went up 6% this year and the land value went up 50%. He stated the previous vaiue on the land was $10,400 and it is now $15,600. Mr. Wicklund asked if all similar properties were raised the same percent. Mr� Herrmann stated each particular lot was taken into consideration as its size and the area to cane up with a uniform assessment. He stated, in certain areas, things have changed so the land had to be revalued. Mr. Wicklund asked when these increases were going to end. Mr. Herrmann :;tated it depended on what people will pay for real estate in the future. Mr. Herrmann also explained the tax credit received for those persons who are 65 or older, based on their income. Mayor Nee stated the requirement of the Council is to establish what they feel the house would sell for, if it was on the market. He stated the Assessor arrives at the value by reviewing what comparable homes sold for in the area. Mr. Wicklund stated he didn't doubt it would seTi for the value placed on his home, but didn't think it was fair to charge these prices for homes. He questioned if values would go up next year. Mr. Herrmann stated he had to admit that cities like Fridley, within close proximity of Minneapolis and St. Paul, have greater value because, with the price af gas, people do not want to drive long distances to their place of employment. Mr. Albin Myslajek, 6430 Riverview Terrace, requested his taxes be frozen at a value of $78,000 instead of raising it to �93,000. I�layor Nee asked Mr. Myslajek if he felt the home would sell for $93,000 and he stated he paid this for the property, but.wanted it valued at only �78,000. Councilman Schneider explained, by law, the Council can only make sure the value the Assessor has placed on the property represents the true market value and felt if he purchased the home for $93,000, then it must be worth this amount unless something has happened that causes the value to be ]ower. Mr. Myslajek stated he wanted the value frozen at $7II,000 because he is retired and won't have the money to pay the taxes. Mayor Nee stated the Council does not have the authority to leave the value at �78,000, if they feel the market value is $93,000. i�r� BOARD Of REVIEW MEETING Of MAY 11, 1981 PAGE 3 Mr. Myslajek felt, when a person is retired, they should receive a break in taxes and stated he would be satisfied if the taxes don't go up. Mayor Nee stated they cannot guarantee the taxes wouldn't increase because of all the taxing districts. He pointed out there were many other ag?ncies, besides the City, involved in determining what taxes would be collected. Mr. Lief Henriksen, 6434 Riverview Terrace, stated in 1978, his home was valued at 81,000 and today the value is at $120,000. He pointed out he will not be able to afford to live in his home when he retires. Mayor Nee asked PIr, Henriksen if he would sell his home for 5120,000. He stated the point is that you cannot sell homes with the interest rates as they ar� today. He stated when the Assessor came to his home, even though he hasn't had any changes since he first moved into it, it was pointed out to him that the laundry room and furnance room were finished and the increase in value wouldn't hurt him as it would only be a few more dollars. Mr. Henriksen's concern is what the value will be when he retires and if he can afford to live in his home. Councilman Schneider pointed out the Council can only determine if the value placed on the home is a fair value, based on comparable sales. hirs. Helen Ar ue, 6648 Channel Road, asked why the value of her home was raised 8,900 fi°om 41,800 to 50,700. Mr. Herrmann, Ci•ty Assessor, stated part of the increase was because the breesewdY ha�been fi nishedvhichrai5ed the value by $1,574 and the biggest increase was in the value of the land from $16,200 to �22,000. Nlrs. Argue stated the br�esway cannot be used all year around. Mr. Herrmann stated this was true anu was taken into consideration in figuring the value. Mr. Herrmann then further explained how the value was placed on this lot =---- since it is an unusuaT]y large lot. Mayor Nee asked �4rs. Argue ifshe felt the property would sell for the value placed��on it. Mrs. Argue stated she didn't know until she talks to a reait�r. Mayor Nee stated staff would review the value placed on her home and �it.will come again before the Cou���il on June 1, 1^£31. Mrs. Argue also questioned what could be done about the condition of her neighbor's property. Mr. Flora stated this property owner has been contac�ed and the City was given a date when corrective action would be taken and the area improved. Mr. Ralph Truax 7880-7884 Elm Street, asked Mr. Herrmann to have his name recorded as having appealed as he wants �nore time to investigate the value placed on this property. hir. Joseph Valtinson, 5215 Pierce Street, stated the value placed on his home in 1979 was �72,860 and this year the value as of January 2, 1981 is �101,400. Mr. Valtinson stated what he is concerned about is the value placed on the improvements. He pointed out 'there is another house in his area that cost about $225,000 and the value placed on this property is �129,OU0. He stated other homes in his area are valued at �69,000. Councilwoman Moses asked if houses in the area valued at $69,000 s�rere similar to his home. Mr. Valtinson stated he has about 1,450 square feet and most of the homes are about 1,250 square feet. P4r. Valtinson felt the value placed on his home was high, and it should be 1 ower. Mayor Nee stated the staff would check into this further and come back with a report to the Council at the�June 1, 1981 meeting. � __ . _ ___ _ _ ; ��-3 BOARD OF REVIEW MEETIfdG OF MAY 11, 1981 PAGE 4 Mr. Richard Harris, 6200 Riverview Terrace, appeared before the Council regarding the values placed on his properties in the City. He stated the property at 6200 Riverview Terrace had a vaiue of $96,700 placed on it for � last year and the new value is $117,200 which is a 21;� or $20,500 increase. Mr. Harris felt this was a little high. Mr. Herrmann pointed out this is a river lot and the lot value went from $17,200 to $32,900. Mayor Nee asked Mr. Harris if he felt they had the wrong market value. Mr. Narris stated he honestly doesn't think the property is worth that and could see about $107,000, but not $117,000. ' Mr.'Harris felt the problem is all the papers filed in Anoka County show about a 12% to 15% additional charge because of the mort�age company's charge to the-owner. He pointed out if a home sold for $200,000, it would also show another $30,000, which represents 15% of the selling price for the points and this appears as part of the mortgage. ' Mr. Harris further stated the value of the property at 621Q Riverview Terrace has been raised by $18,000 from $86,000 to $104,000, and felt this value was also high. Mr. Harris raised the question of the value of his property at 7765-7795 Main Street. He stated the�value this year was $206,500 which is an increase of $40,000 or 19.4% in a one year period. Mr. Herrmann stated, basically, it was the land that rose in value and the value placed on the land is $77,600. Mr. Harris pointed out there is about 60,000 square feet in each of those parcels, and felt land of this nature was going for about 80 cents a square foot. Mr. Harris stated the property at 7701-1-7703 Main Street also received an increase and questioned what percent of the new addition is put on this year's taxes. Mr. Nerrmann, City Assessor, stated 50% or $71,400 is for the new addition. Mr. Harris questioned if the balance was for the land to which Mr. Herrmann answered in the affirmative. Mr. Harris stated the property at 7710-7720 Main Street had an 11.6% increase in value from $308,600 to �344,300. He pointed out, however, the land across the street had a 19% increase in value. Mayor Nee stated staff would review the items brought up by Mr. Harris with a report back to Couneil at the June 1, 1981 meeting. Mr. Harris stated he would like a ruling on the matter of points as he honestly feels the valuation, because of this system, are probalby inflated 10� to 15%. Mr. Edward Frogale, 64&0 Riverview Terrace, stated his lot is assessed at • $27,000 and his front yard has ten inches of blacktop below the grass as it was once a street. He stated the value last year was 75,000 and it has now gone to $91,900. Mr. Frogale stated he could not see a value of $27,200 placed on his lot because of the situation in his front yard and his home is not on the river. I4� BOARD OF REVIEW MEETIN6 Of MAY 11, 1981 PAGE 5 Mr. Herrmann stated his office felt they should take another look at Mr. Fogale's property because there seems to be a problem with the value placed on the land, but not the home. He stated the land value has risen from $14,000 to $27,000. Mayor Nee stated staff would review this matter, with a report back to the Council at the meeting on June 1, 1981. hir. Herrmann requested the Council receive a letter from Robert W. Tivnan, Tax Representative for McDonald's, protesting the value placed on this property and indicating he wanted additional time to review it further.

OLD BUSINESS: � � COP;SIDERATION OF ORDINf�NCE P�IPdNESOTA BY h1I+,KING A CHAN 80�0 UNIVERISTY AVENUE CITY CODE OF THE CITY OF 4/81): Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated, basically, the only question to resolve is payment of the park fiee for this plat. Mr. Qureshi state d his recommendation is that the $17,000 park fee should be paid, as he felt the agreement worked out with the developers on the property south of the Paco Plat was a separate issue. 61r. Dave Harris stated, at a previous meeting, he had made a request for the council to �vaive the park fee on this plat, as he fe7t it was proper and reasonable. He stated the City benefitted substantially in the negotiations regarding the Corrmunity Park where they had voluntarily given property to the City which had a market value of �160,000. He pointed out the appraisal on this land coincides within one cent per square foot of adjoining property sold in the area. Mr. Narris stated he is not�� withdrawing his request toviaive the park fee, as there was no prior agreement made for future considerations, at the time the gift was made to the City. Mr. Harris stated he could sense, from the tone of the Council, that their feeling was they would be setting,a bad precedent, if the park fee was ���aived. He stated, in retrospect, at the time land was given for the Comrnunity Park, there should have been a t�ritten decument that, in lieu of this gift, the park fee would be waived on this plat. He stated he didn't want to leave any misguided impression that he wants sor�e favors. ��ir. Harris felt the park fee is execessive and is another form of taxes and requested the Council act to have the park fee paid at the tirne the buildin9 per�Tiits are issued and the cost be appor�ioned to reflect the acreage in each permit. j : l +� PUBLIC HEkRI�1G MEETIP�G OF h1AY 11, 19II1 PAGE 7 Mayor PJee thanked f�1r.

NEW BUSIPJESS: Cs:E'. 2 CONSIDERATION OF SETTING PUBLIC HEARING DATE FOR JUNE 8 1981 TO DELETE DOUBLE BUNGALOWS IN R-1 ZONING: Councilwoman Moses stated the Community Development Gommission made some recor�nendations regarding the special use permit and asked how deleting double bungalows in an R-1 zone will differ from the special use permit. Mr. Qureshi, City hfanager, stated if Councilwoman Moses is pointing out that the proposal to delete double bungalows in an R-1 zone is contrary to the recommendation of the Community Development Commission, she is correct. Councilman Schneider felt the recommendation from the C'or.vnunity Development Commission could be considered in conjunction with the reviewal of the R-1 zoning code. Councilwoman Moses felt the recommendation from the Community Development Commission had some good guidelines for taking a single family home and using it for two family occupancy. MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to set the public hearing for June 8, 1981 regarding.the amendments to chapter1.205 zoning code of the Gity of Fridley including the deletion of double bungalows in an R-1 zone. Seconded by Councilman Schneider. Councilwoman Moses felt if there is a public hearing now and the double bungalows are deleted, this would never get back in the code. She stated there is a need for additional housing un�:ts and this special use permit process is a way of obtaining affordable housing in Fridley, and she is not ' comfortable with taking ii out of the code. Councilman Fitzpatrick stated the same end result would be accomplished under a rezoning request. Mayor Nee stated, speaking for himself, he thought there should be room for accor�iodation, but felt something should be spelled out cn how the accorrunodation should proceed. ' Councilwoman Moses asked why the Council couldn't take the quidelines proposed by the Community Development Co�nission. Mayor �lee stated it really addressed conversions, and not double bungalows. Councilman Fitzpatrick stated even if the guidelines of the Community Development Commission were followed, it wouldn't solve the problem faced by the Council and they would still be in the position that double bungalows are allowed with a special use permit, and it is incumbent on the Council to make the case for denial. UPON A VOIGE VOTE TAKEN ON THE ABOVE MOTP�V, Councilman Fitzpatrick, Councilman Schneider, Councilman Barnette and Mayor Nee voted in favor of the motion. Councilwoman htoses voted against the moiion. Mayor Nee declared the rootion carried unanimously by a 4 to 1 vote. l�?�3 REGULAR MEETING OF MAY 18, 1981 PAGE 3 3 RECEIVING PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES OF MAY 6, 1981: �� CONSIDERATIOfd OF REQUEST FOR SPECIAL USE PERMIT SP #81-06 TO ALLOW A DUPLEX IN R-1 ZONING, 31 OSBORNE WAY, LEIGH INVESTMENTS, INC.: Mayor Nee stated the Planning Conanission has recommended denial of this special use permit to allow a duplex in an R-1 zone. Mr. Flora, Public Works Director, stated in this area there are essentially single family homes on three sides and commercial property along East River Road, however, the developer has found it is easier to obtain financing to develop this property as a duplex, rath�r than a single family home and is proposing to construct a building to house two families, with sufficient off-street parking. Mr. Flora stated, at the Planning Comnission public hearing, four neighbors were present and voiced canments against this request for a special use permit. The Planning Commission reconmended denial of the special use permit because they felt there would be adverse environmental impacts on the lot from noise and vehicle pollution; .the dangers of traffic from a driveway and multiple ' cars at that location; and it is out of character with the neighborhood. MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to concur with the recommendation of the Planning Commission for denial of the special use permit, SP #81-06, based on the same criteria cited by the Commission, as follows: (1) The adverse , environmental impacts on the lot from noise arn; vehicle pollution; (2) The dangers of traffic from a driveway and multiple cars at that location; and (3) It is out of character with the neighborhood. Further, there were also objections by the neighbors at the public hearing before the Planning Comission. Seconded by Councilman Schneider. Mr. Doyle, the petitioner, felt this would provide a buffer for the single family homes in the area. He pointed out the people who would face the front of this building didn't have a great deal of objec�tion, and those speaking against it, lived on 75th Way. Mr. Doyle stated he is a f�rm believer in providing affordable housing for people, and in today's market, i.t is harder than ever. Council�aoman Moses stated probably the reason people objected to double bungalows was concern for the type of people that may be rentin9 the units. She felt because of the amount of rent, the units would probably be taken care of by those who could afford to live there. Mr. Doyle stated he has the same type of duplex in his neighborhood in New Brighton and they are located on Mississippi about one block west of Silver take Road. Councilwoman Moses felt putting a single family home on that lot didn't make much sense, but theneighbors in the area are objecting and it makes it difficult to vote for when there are objections. Councilman fitzpatrick stated one point made was it would make a bad situation worse to put a relatively large building on this lot. Mr. Doyle pointed out that FHA has turned down loans for single family homes. on these lots because of the high noise level and noxious fumes. UPON A ROLL CALL VOTE TAKEN ON THE ABOVE P10TION, Councilman Ftizpatrick, Councilman Sechneider, Councilwoman Moses, and Councilman Barnette voted in favor of the motion. .� i..��'j REGULAR MEETING OF MAY 18, 1981 PAGE 4 Mayor Nee voted against the motion. Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously by a 4 to 1 vote. 3*� CONSIDERATION OF REQUEST FOR LOT SPLIT, LS #81-04, TO MAKE BUILDABLE � LOT, 6301 EAST RIVER ROAD, JOHN R. DOYLE: Mr. F1ora, Public Works Director, stated the property is on East River Road, east of 63rd and involves three parcels, Lots 12, 13, and 14, Fridley Park Addition. Mr. Flora stated the County is purchasing 32 feet from Lot 12 for additional right-of-way �`or the East River Road improvement, and the request is to split off the east 8 feet of Lot 12 and the west 9 feet of Lot 14 to add to Lot 13. He stated the County is contendin9, with the lot splits, there would be a 57 foot buildable lot for development. M1-. Flora stated the reason for this lot splil, is to determine if, in fact, there is a buiddable lot for the remaining property. He pointed out, with the lot split, the lot would be 57 feet wide by 132 feet deep, with 7,524 square feet. The remaining lot would have a 71 foot frontaqe and 9,372 square feet. i��Y�. Flora stated if the lot split request is denied, there should be something in the record that states if the County does acquire this property, this property be tied together in some way with Lot 13 so the 48 feet would not go tax forfeit. Mr. Flora stated the Planning Corrnnission recomnended denial of this request for the lot split for the follwoing reasons: (1) It is inconsistant with the neighborhood; (2) It is a cornerlot which is really too small and too close to a busy highway; (3) Tha traffic problem that could be generated by driveways so close to East River Road; and (4) The adverse environmental impacts from noise and vehicle pollution. Mr. Doyle, the petitioner, stated the problem is that the County only wants to take 32 feet and is saying to him he has a buildable lot and all he has i to dois ask for a variance. He stated the lot split was requested so they i would have the necessary total square footage and buildable space. Councilman Fitzpatrick stated he is inclined to agree with the Planning Commission that this lot split would create a small lot very close to the highway and force building too close to the highway because of the size of the lot. MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to concur with the recommendation of the Planning Corrmission and deny the request for a Lot Split> #81-04, for the following reasons as cited by the Planning Commission: (1) It is inconsistent with the neighborhood; (2) It is a corner lot which is real}y too small and too close to a busy highway; (3) The traffic problem that could be generated by driveways so close to East River Road; and (4) The adverse environmental impacts from noise and vehicle pollution. Seconded by Councilman Barnette. Councilman Barnette stated he is aware of another lot on East River Road where the same situation applies and where �the County came in with an extremely low offer. He stated the County is probably safing the o�,mers have a buildable site, but the City is now saying they are not going to let them build on it. UPON A VOICE VOTE TAKEN ON THE ABOVE MOTION, all voted aye, and Mayor Nee declared'the motion carrried unanimouls�. ry �. � REGULAR MEETING OF MAY 18, 1981 �n CONSIDERATIOtJ FOR SPECIAI.

He stated there was an agreement proposed which basically, provided that Burlington Northern would not be assessed if they, in turn, gave the right-of-way to the City. He stated this proposal was submitted to the Council and the Council's concern was what would happen if the railroad makes use of the property for building purposes and for loading and un1oading trucks. Mr. Qureshi stated there is also a proposed assessment for the Burlington Northern plat south of the freeway, and it is his understanding they do not question this assessment, but only the one for the Ashton Avenue improvement. Mr. John Heron, representing Burlington PJorthern Railroad, appeared before the Council regarding this proposed assessment for Ashton Avenue. He stated the reason there was no objection at the last meeting, when the public hearing was held, is that he checked with the City staff and was told there was no assessment for Ashton Avenue. Mr. Heron submitted a written formal protest to the Council regarding the assessment for Ashton Avenue. MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to receive the written protest from Burlington Northern regarding the assessment for the Ashton Avenue improvement. Seconded by Councilman Schneider. Upon a voice vote, a�ll voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously. Mr. Heron stated he felt this issue was settled and all that had to be signed was the easement agreement. Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, stated a proposal was presented to the Counczl some months ago wherein he indicated this matter had been discussed with Burlington Northern and had proposed an agreement that the amount of the assessment and the cost of the right-of-way would be considered to be equal and recommended to the Couneil that the agreem?nt be aclopted. He stated the agreement was not adopted, at that time, and he was not aware this matter was on for assessment, until earlier today, at which time he discussed it 8nd there was some question as to whether representatives of the railroad were aware it was on for the Council's adoption. Mr. Herrick stated he indicated to staff they better check to see if Burlington Northern was aware Council was going t� consider adoption of the assessment roll �ecause he didn't feel it was proper to adopt an assessr�ent, if the didn't know it was proposed. , Mr. Herrick stated whether the Council chooses to agree that the amount of the assessment and the cost of the right-of-way are equal is entirely up to them. He explained he negotiated it at the request of the City and felt it was a good proposal, but the Council makes the final decision if they want to approve it on behalf of the City. If not, the railroad can appeal the assessment, if they choose. He stated they probably will end up going to court on the question whether the City needs to acquire the right-of-way. He stated, if i.t is determined the City must acquire the right-of-way, there is the question of the value of it, as well as the assessment cost to Burlington Northern, and the benefit the railroad receives from the improvement. Councilman Fitzpatrick asked if the 543,000 assessment is not paid by Burlington Northern, how it would be paid. Mr. Qureshi stated the staff recommendation would be that no further assessment be imposed on the properties to the west, and if it is not paid by the railroad, State Aid Funds would be used that were received in this project. i :�`� REGULAR MEETING OF MAY 18, 1981 PAGE 7 Mr. Herrick stated there is a possibility the right-of-way has been dedicated by use and, in that case, it wouldn't be necessary far the City to purchase it. This is the question Burlington Northern disputes and if they cannot reach an agreement, he presumes it will have to be determined in cou rt. Councilman Fitzpatrick stated, in his mind, one of the inconsistencies here is if tt�at is not deve}opable property, then why is it such high price property when the time comes to buy the easement. Mayor P�ee asked if they could get it clarified from Burlington Northern that the property wouldn't be used for any other purpose other than right-of-way. Councilman Fitzpatrick stated the question is if they are going to use Ashton Avenue. Mr. Heron stated he had no idea. Councilman Fitzpatrick stated it seems they have a statement that the street doesn't benefit the property and they don't use the street. Mr. Herrick stated the criteria for benefit is whether the real estate has a higher market value now that the street is constructed, than before the street was put in. Mr. Qureshi felt there are only twa routes to take and one would be to assess the railroad for the improvement of Ashton Avenue or accept the proposal submitted a few months ago. Councilman Ftizpatrick stated not only does he believe the improvement should be assessed against the railroad property, but the cost of acquiring the right- of-way is part of the cost of the project. MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to adopt Resolution No. 64-1981, with the deletion of the assessment to Burlington Northern for the improvement of Ashton Avenue from 61st to 64th Avenue. Seconded by Councilwoman Moses. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimiously.

H e requested the Council to eliminate these parties as they go on until the early morning hours and kids run all over his property.

OP! ORDINANCE REVIFW FOR REhEWAL: The Commission members, P�s. Davis, Mr. 0'Connell, Mr. Scott and Mr. Moravetz, introduced themselves and gave a little history on their positio ns to Ms. Meyer and Ms. Peterson from the League of Women Voters. Chairman ir!eaver explained that one of the requirements of the City for re- franchising is to survey the needs of the citiZens and that the commission membership is too limited for this task. Mr. Moravetz gave his. Meyer and Ms. Peterson a copy of a survey conducted in 1974 that was sent out with the City newsletter. He said that 30% responde�. Ms. Peterson asked if they wanted to contact every citizen in Fridley and Mr. Chevalier said they would like to hit every head-of-household, Chairman Weaver said it is important to get representation from vie4ring and non-viewing citizens and asked if they wanted to do this. Ms. Meyer said possibly, that it seems like a massive project. Mr. Belgum said 100�� inquiry is not expected. Mr. Chevalier explained that the commission does not have a lot of communication with the public and that the complaints from Northern Cablevision are mostly technical. He asked how many members they have and Ms. P1eyer said ahout 40. Chairman ��leaver said it would be a step in the right direction and mayhe everyone in the group couid pick up 10 people; that the commission needs the results of this survey hy _ Labor Day in order to meet their scheduie. Ms. Davis brought a needs assessment booklet and a copy of the Rule that deals with renewal reports for them. She also said they can use the cable system as there are films and video tapes available. She said one city intervietived community leaders and showed films and video tapes. Mr. (�'Connell suggested that the League of t�!on�en Voters has �arb Hughes as a member and that they con- tact her as she was also a past member of the commission. Mr. Scott said r�ost people in the workshop have been involved with cable for some time and they can put this knot�ledge into refranchising. They are prim�rily concerned to see the access par-ts of the ordinance strenc�htened and speiled out better (loca� origination and technical aspects). He said they are more interested in cable as an educational tool, educatin� people about access, teaching peopTe about pro�.�lmming. Chairman l�leaver and Mr. Chevalier both felt that the survey should not be too technical; people will find it difficult to under- 2 l� CATV Co�uniss �on t4cetin� - Thur,d�� Ma�r 14, 19�1 Page 2 stand. Mr. Scott fielt different approaches will hring different answers; community leaders and general public will have different answers. Mr, f�oravetz recalled from a meetin� a couple of months ago the question came up of the survey being related to marketing and the company having some input. Ms'. Davis said her impression at that time was that the cable company was going to do the survey. t4r. Chevalier mentioned cooperating with.the cahle company, their interest being marketing and the commission's being needs assessment. Chairman t�Jeaver noted if ta�o surveys are sent out, the second will be thrown away and arill not �et much attention. Mr. Chevalier wondered about adding the question of whether or not Fridiey shouid own.the syster� to the survey. Mr, n�elgum felt that this was one of theoptions that people should know about. Pfir. 0'Connell said you have to ask the city councll if they have the money to purchase the system. Chairman bl�aver felt the community should not get all "pumped" up to buy the franchise before there was a commitment from someone with money to buy it. � Ms. Meyer asked about reasons why everyone isn't hook up to cable. Mr. 0'Connell said some people simply cannot afford it, others simply do not watch th.at much television, some peop•le hook up and disconnect during the summer and some may be upset with the company. Mr. 8elgum asked if people take cable primarily for Channel 12 and Mr. Scott felt a lot of people do. Chairman bJeaver said something can he learned from problems and surveys in other - areas. r1s. Davis said they are in the process of 88-95 refranchisings and maybe 20 of them have been completed, Ms. Peterson asked ahout financing available to do the job. Mr, Chevaiier said when the nethod is determined for the survey, to let the commission know what it would cost and the commission wili then re- commend to the city council that sQ much be spent for this. Chairman Weaver said the commission only makes recommendations and the.city manager and city council put on the final stamp of approval, h"s. Peterson said she will take this matter back to their board and discuss, it with them, figure out what type of survey and bring the information back to the commission. Ms. Davis suggested that they contact other areas to find out who did their surveys and the costs incurred.. Mr. Moravetz said they have a June, July or early August schedule. N15. Peterson said they will come back to the June commissionmeeting. Mr. Moravetz said if something comes up sooner than the next meeting to contact him or Mr. Scott at the library and to keep in mind that the company is available to provide assistance. � APPROVAL OF CATV C�MMISSION MINUT�� �F APRIL �, 1981: MOTTON by Mr. Chevalier, seconded hy Mr. Belgum, to approve the CATV minutes of April �, 1981 as �vritten.

R FURTNER RFCOh!MFNQIITIOP!S TO CITY COUNCIL REGAFDI�G CAP�1ERA & RECnRQ��.(' - — - .� —�--� 2� CATV Commission P�eeting - Thursday, i�ay 14, 19II1 Page 3 Chairman 4leaver said at the last meeting the commission sent a recommendation to c�ity council that they purchase a port-a-pac (camera and recorder) and the re- sponse to that recommendation was the following 4 questions: (,A� Money? (P.) Who will operate? (C) 4lhere 41i11 the equipment be stored? (D) 61ho will maintain? Chairman 4leaver felt that any Fridley resident that has completed the workshop will be acceptable to operate the equipment. Mr. Scott said they can take a training course from the library or the workshop and, at the library, someone over 18 years of age has to check the equipment out or, if someone is younger, their parent has to check out the equipment. Mr. Scott mentioned that the a�ork- shop may be able to purchase a port-apac but they cauld use five, especially during the summer with youth sports, softball, parks and recreation; that the city is going to have good use of a port-a-pac. Mr. Belgum asked if it would make more sense to sign to parks and recreation. Mr. Moravetz noted that the palic� department could use the port-a-pac. Mr. Scott said people could take training course from the workshop and go to parks and recreation and check out the Pquipment. P1r. 0'Connell noted that Chuck from parks and recreation has never really asked for a port-a-pac but Turnbull has asked for one. Mr. Scott said the fire department has one that was given to them by the VFG1. Mr. Moravetz said if parks and recreation and the police department really want a port-a-pac camera and recorder they would request the city council to buy it for them. Mr. Scott said if the equipment is stor2d with the workshop, parks and recreation can come in to us° it; that there are alot of programs that the police and fire d�partment can do and where the equipment is stored is not really a great problem. Chairman Weaver said the ACCb! could store the new equipment and have �vorkspace that is provided by Northern. P�r. Scott said they are open 40 hours a week, until 9 on some nights and on Saturdays. Mr, Peterson agreed that the ACCW workshop would be the best place for the equipment. The maintenance question was discussed. Mr. Scott said at the library they have an agreement for one year parts and labor with the manufacturer and that they pay $200 for a second year maintenance agreement with them. He also said whoever gets the bid will maintain it and that Northern has someone on their staff who can do minor repairs. Chairman Uleaver asked what would happen if the camera and recorder fall off the back of a truck and Mr. Moravetz said it would be covered by city insurance but wasn't sure if it was not housed in a city building. Mr. 0'Connell said the city, company and ACC41 all have insurance. Mr. Scott said" the library has had a port-a-pac for 6 years without major damage and that he would prefer to see the equipment stored with the workshop. Chairman Weaver said then for the first year there would be a vendor maintenance agreement, thereafter, we would negotiate on an annual basis with a maintenance facil�ity. Chairman tdeaver said the money for the camera and recorder would come from the budget. Mr. Moravetz said there is a problem as there is Q5,00(1 capital outlay for an Ap�le Comnut�r. Mr. Scott said with a state contract an order for a modulator and Apple II is under 52y5,� Mr. Moravetz said all they really need is the Apple II because they already have a modulator. Chairman Weaver said the cost of the Apple II with modulator is now less than $2,500 the differential could be used for the new camera and recorder. zc CATV Commis��ion t4eeting - Thursday, Ma� 14, 1Qf�1 Page 4 MOTION by Mr, aelgum, seconded by Mr. Peterson, that in order to further the capacity of cable television to serv e better the people of Fridley, it is re- commended to the four questions placed before the commission by the city cou�cil, that: A. The source of the money for the,purchase of a Panasonic WV 3200 Camera, Panasonic PaU 8410 Portable Recorder and accessories, is the 19R1 budget for the CATV Commission v�hich includes a line item in category 4530, �5,000.

INMAN; �IRECTOR OF CENTRAL SERVICES SUBJfCT: CHANGES IN THE 1980 BUDGET APPROPRIATIOIdS DATE: MAY 26, 1981 Attached is a resolution authorizing an adjustment in the budget for 1980. In reviewing the City's Annual Report with the auditor, a recommendation was made regarding leave, pension and insurance payable amounts that have been historically carried in ihe General Fund. For the past few years, the General Fund carried and is reported to have lOQ% of the liability of all leaves, insurance and pensions payable. The auditor has suggested and I agree that this amount should be carried in a special rever+ue fund and segregated from the General Fund for the following reasons: 1. Carrying the entire liability in the General Fund tends to distort the single fund position, rather than displaying it as a liability to the entire City. 2. While it has not happened in the past, if a requirement on one of these accounts exceeded the balance, the liability then would be placed totally against the General Fund rather than charging it to the funds that they were accrued against. 3. Carrying the liabilities in a separate fund would allow us the detailed analysis of expenditures for leaves, insurance and pension benefits for an entire year. In order to accomplish this, a resolution has been prepared to set up an Employee Benefit Accrual Fund (Fund 14) by setting up a budget for that fund and by transferring the present amount of liability out of thP General Fund and into the Employee Benefit Accrual Fund. SCI:sh � RESOLUTION N0. 1981 A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING AN APPROPRIATION FOR THE EMPLOYEE BENEFIT ACCRUAL FUND AND FOR TRANSFERRING OF THE LIABILITY FRQM THE GENERAL FUND TO THAT EMPLOYEE BENEFIT ACCRUAL FUND WHEREAS, The City presently carries the liability for all payroll overhead in the General Fund; and WNEREAS, This amount represents the liability against the GQneral Fund only; and WHEREAS, This liability amount should be represented as affecting the entire City; and WHEREAS. The City needs to have a detailed analysis of payroll expenditures. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, That a budget amount of $200.,000 be established for the Employee Benefit Accrual Fund (Fund 14); and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the same amount of $200,000 be transferred from the General Fund payroll and liability accounts to the Employee Benefit Accrual Fund.

We have received a request for Onan Corporation to install a temporary trailer on their property for additional general office space for a 36 month period. This temporary trailer, 12 x 56 feet, is to satisfy their office needs until they can construct an addition to their exist- ing plant. Authorization for a temporary trailer requires City Council approval. A review of the City's needs on the Onan property reveals: 1. Additional landscaping around the parking lot. 2, Planting of vines on their cyclone fencing. 3. Screening of their outside storage to include d�mpsters and LP storage tanks. 4. Repair of the west parking lot. 5. Fifteen foot bikeway easement along 73rd Avenue and Central Avenueo We can raise these items at this time or inform Onans that there are certain code requirements that need to be addressed and completed when they come to obtain a building permit for their new canstruction. Request guidance from the City Council on how we should proceed with this item.

We have had a number of ineetings and discussions with Bud Johnson Construc- tion and Design Consortium, Incorporated (DCI) on finaling out the costs and changes necessary to complelP the Nature Center building. Of the Change Orders received, only two require City Council approval for project com- pletion: Change Order #11 - L.P, gas conversion $250.00 Change Order #12 - electrical panel change Total amount for construction = $353,362 413.00 DCI has agreed to withdrawing Change Order No. 6 for additional drain tile installation and Change Order No. 10 for project extension time. Considerable discussions have been conducted on the rough-in plumbing originally requested in Change Order No. 5. Construction did not provide for what was originally designed or desired by the City. Our original concept was to provide a bath- room facility on the second floor to support a live-in watchman. With our exising security system of alarms and shuttered doors, plus the fact that com- plete restroom facilities are available on the first floor, we have requested DCI to delete the requirement for any additional plumbing work and reduce the contract amount by $700. I have been infarmed by DCI that they are agreeable to this change and to the final construction costs identified above. With the final construction costs established as $353,362, DCI's percentage of construction is $38,869.82 plus additional design cost of $b,832.50 for a total amount of $45,702.32. The above amounts identify our total costs for the designing, inspection and co�istruction of the Nature Center. We will withhold payment of 2'-2% until the deficiencies have been corrected. -r�e� cirY a� �—; f �; x � ; _. �� � ��������� .: � ..,� Q� �� � ,..� � � � r o°OO � Do p� !
