COUNCIL MEETING OF OCit�BER 21, 1985
pravisions of the rec�nt arbitrati,on award.
Nlr. Mi.les statecl that to qive a little history on this, this stmuner they
went to arbit-rat�on over the contract because they were not able to settle
i_he oontract d�sp4te in negotiations. About 6 weeks ago on Septernber 6, the
�rbitration award came cbwn. Right away the Ca.ty rais�d the questiocz on the
issue oF shift preference of what the arbitration awaro had rneant. The
Union sac�ed a request to the arbitrator to clarify the award. They have
been waiting for that clarification from the arbitrator, but they see no
reason, since the shift preferen� issue is the only issue in question, that
the �ay �u�d benefits provasions cannat be unglanented. ThEy are askinq that
the s�lary �aaraed by the arbitrator which was a 5o increase and the back
p�y effec�ive to January 1, 1985, be im�lemented along with the benefits
such as insurance, hourly �ay, and holiday �ay issues.
Mr. Miles stated that other cities that have raised the issue (Roseville and
Braoklyn Park} challenged thase �articular awards this year. Mr. SinythE,
Fxidley's labor wnsultant, also represented Roseville and Brooklyn Park.
The3 chose to imFlenent the �ay and benefit prwisions even thouo,h they had
questions about c�rtain provisions.
Nr. Miles statec� the City has requested the Union to sign a contract�
Ysaaever, they are not �ble to sicy� the oontract because the clariflcation
would not k� included. If they szc;n it, they would be signing away the
arbitrator's clarific:at�.on befare the clarification came down, so getting
the claxificat�on f rcm the arbitrator wauld be all for naught.
Nir. Miles statec� thEy are �yinqe (1) They are willing to sicyi the oontraet
with the pravision that the centract is sub�ect to the arbitrator's
clarificatior; and (2) They see rio reason why the arbitxation award cannot
be imp] anented ariyway with regard to the und� sputed issues without a signed
contract. Other cities such as Rosevil.le and Brooklyn Park have done that
without signed contracts.
Mr. Miles statec� there was some language that the labor consultanL, Mr.
Sfiythe, pro�rosed ta then and withdrew, which would have taken care of the
issue and thEy would have been able to sign the contract. That language
�as: "This article is sub�ect to change dependent upon the arbitrator's
cl�rif�.cation.” He stated that language would allaa the contract to be
changed if for some reason the clarification changed the original awarcl.
Mr. M�las stated there wexe twa ways the Caty c3ould go about doing this:
(1) They ooulc3 imFzi anent the unchallenyed provisions of the award without a
sic�ed cantract; or, (2) They could direct the City Manager to adopt this
language t�7r. 9nythe original.ly �roposed and then subsec�uently withdrew and
the contract �ulc3 then be sic�ned by all �rties.
Mayor Nee staked this was a difficult issue.

Councilman Barnette asked if the house on Lot 4 was currently hooked up to
city sewer and water.
7he pet�.tio�r, Mr. Ibug Peterson, stated it was r.ot, but Fart of the plan
was to hook it up to city sewer and water.
Mr. Flora statec� the Plaiun ng Commisaion made a stlpulation that the house
on Lat 4 be ranoved. ThEy were ooncerned about the value of the existing
house oomgr�red to the new house.
Mr. I�terson statecl he was asking that the existing house not be removed.
Fe statecl it was a good souria house after it is ranodeled and a garage and
porc.h addec] on, will be more in line �aith the price of the new houses. He
statea t4r. & Mrs. K.en Herrman, who have lived in the house for the last 8
years, wer� in the audience.
Mr. Hexrick stated he woul.c3 caution the City Council's authority to recyuire
the ranaval of the house, unless it was in a condition where the building
inspector would maintain thak it was substandard wh�.ch would require it to
be mwed; but simgly because it was a diffexent style or smaller or the �
�nce was not in lim wii-h the pric3e of the new houses was not sufficient
grounds to have it ranoved.
Councilman Fitz�trick stated that the stipulations written by the Planning
Commission applied to the reoonunendatian that the house be ranovec]. If the
house is going to ranain as the City Attorney had recommended, then there
were some other stipulatsons that would no doubt be put in a motion in twca
weeks when they act on it. One a£ the stipulations recommended by staff
oriyinally and chan,ed in a motian by the Planrung Co�niasion had to do with
the oontinued existence of the house and that, therefore, would call for a
rear yard varianoe frcm 40 feet to 23 feet.
Mr. Flora stated there would have to be a variance fran the front yard also.
Councilman Fitzg�trick statecl that one stipulatin stated by the Plamm�g

possible in cunfunction with city staff:. IIe stated Lhis seemed rather
vague. In looking at the lot, of soft irees. He hoped rhe �titioner
zealized they were talking about hardwoon trees, evergreens, and the
desirable trees on the lot.
Mr, l�terson stated, that was his unclerstanc�ng.
� Mr. Ken Herrman stated he was tYte resident az. 7560 East River Rcx�d wh�ch was
the existing house on Lot 4. He stated that ir, his lease he � s to pay the
taxes on the house and property, and it is currently valued at $105,000. He
stated it was a good solid house and has been ;naintained pretty well. He
stated it sounded like Mr. Peterson 47FAS going to make some very nire
imprwenents.
A resident liv u1g on the oorner af 75th Way and Air]en Way statec if the new
street goes in, she w�.].1 be surrounded on tt�ree szcies by roads, what does
this do to the value of her property? She stated the sL-.reet d�d not nother
her as much as the lighting. She has had sane burglan es to her home, and
the lighting situata.on has to be improvec3.
Councilman Barnette suggested she work with the develo�r when the street
goes in and with NSP on where she would like the li�ht to ao.
Mr. A.J. Hogan, 133 75th Way, stated he ur!dersk000l the bouleaard wc�uld be 7
feet wide on his side of 76th. When a boulc,�ard is narmally 12 feet, was 7
feet wide enough to keep fran thraaing sna� in the wincer time into tt3elr
�ack yards?
Mr. Qureshi stated since this road would service only 8 lots, he thought iL
would be practical to have a 30 foot wide s�reet with at Ieast a 10 f-oot
bouleaard on each side.
� Mr. Hogan asked who would maintain the grass cutting on the boulevard.
Mr. Qureshi stated it was the responsibility of tY?e abutting property cxrners
to ma�.ntain it.
Councilman Fitz�trick stated a recommendation rnade by the Flanning

petitioner would provide a gate in the fer.ce at the petitioner's expense.
P1r. �terson stated he was not ob�ecting to the c�tes, but he wc�ulcl like L-o
have a dollar �nount of what it wi11 cost.
A resident from 91 75th Way, stated that as a�roperty ovri�er, she was
opposed to the proposed develognent. When sne purchased the property two
years ago, or� of the selling pcunts for her was that the t�ck yard was moe
and private and qw.et. She would like the pro��rty to sLay undeveloped.
She did not like to see a street goin in directly behind her �ara�crty,

because there wi31 be traffic ar_d noise. There is already an incredible
amo�ult of traffic on 75th Way and this will increase the traffic. If the
road has to yo in behind her and there is going to be a 1C foot boulevard,
she would like to �e the developer put in a sidewalk so the children have a
place to ride their bikes, rollerskate, etc., because it is toa dangerous
