PUBLIC HEARINGS•
1. PUBLIC HEARING ON TI� MATI'ER OF VACATION RE4UEST SAV #85-06 . T0 VACATE THE
UNUSID JOHNSON STI2EET DIDICATION LYING I�RTH OF SKYWOOD IANE AI�ID 90UTH QF I-
4 9 4, BY JOHN POLI,� •
NDTION by Coi.uzcilman Goodspeed to waive the reading of the public hearing
notive and open the public hearing. Sevonded by Cotazcilman Schneider. Up�n
a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried
unanimously and the public hearing opened at 7:46 p.m.
Mr. Flora, Riblic Works Director, stated this request was for vacation of
Johnson Street which lies to the r�orth of Skywood Lar�e and south of I-6 94 .
He stated, in 1970, the City vacated the southerly half of Johnson Street
south af Skywood Lane and, in 1976 , the Ci ty vacated the remai ni ng po r ti on
of Jahnson Street between Skywood Lane and 53rd Avenue, retaining a 20 foot
utility easement along the e3stern partion.
Mr. Flora stated the Planning Conmission has recommended approval of this
vacation with the stipulation that a ten foot utility easement be retained
on the easterly portion of the property. He stated the City has a water
lire ruu�ing from the high level reservoir to the north side of I-694,
cutting c�iagonally across Johnson Street between Skywood Lane and I-694,-
therefore, it is rewmmended the City retain a utility easement for the
entire portion, if this vacation is appraved.
Councilman Goodspeed questioned where the property was taken for this
street.
Mr. Flora stated the p�operty for the street came frcm 1385 Skywood Lane so
if it is vacated, it reverts back to this property.
Mr. Herrick, C�ty Attorney, asked why this vacation was requested. Mr.
Flora stated Mr. F�llard feels the property has been in mis-use and he has
been maintaining it, but wishes to do so as his own. He stated the
-2-
)UNCIL I�E,TING OF �IJt1ARY 6. 1986
F atitioner had no plans for any building.
M�. Herrick asked if the retention of the util ity easement would be
c�nsistent with Mr. Pbllard's plans for the property to which Mr. Flora
a �aered in the affiimative.
M�. �gebretson, 5376 Matterhorn Drive, stated his property is adjacent to
M�. Pt�llard's property and he has no objection to the vacation. He stated
h.s oonoern, haaever, is he is in the �ooess of some construction on his
p�operty and, if this vacation is appraved, he wanted to be sure he could
s.ill reoeive aooess to finish his project. He also felt he and Mrs. Nieni,
t�e ather property aaner involved, should have an easement for access to
ti �eir property with the proposal for vacation.
G��cilman Goodspeed stated he, Mr. �bllard and Mr. Engebretson have been
d scussing this matter. He stated he knows Mr. Pollard has no problem
w �atsoever in letting Mr. F�gebretson get trucks in and out to finish his
a �nstructian project.
M. Qureshi, City Manager, stated the City has three choioes which would be
t� � delay the actual processing of the vacation until Mr. Engebretson's
a�nstruction is oompleted; to vacate only one-half of the easement; or there
tx a mutual agre�►ent between the two parties that, if all the property is
v, �cated, the adjaoent property awner retains the right to use it in the
f� �ture.
M. Follard stated he has no objection whatsoever to Mr. Engebretson
f. nishing his project, but warits to know what is going on. He also ooulcfi't
�a derstand why Mr. �gebretson and Mrs. Nieni wanted an easement. He stated
h� � does have a o�noern what this property will look like in the spring with
a 1 the truck traffic over it. He felt it wasn't necessary for the
a nstruction crew to drive their private vehicles over this easement and
w� �uld 1 ike the traf f ic kept to a minim�n.
M� s. Arlie Nieni, 5368 I�tterhorn Drive, stated her only concern is if she
r� eded to use this Faroel, in order to have repai rs done on her property,
s1 e onuld legally have acxess to it.
Cc �mcilman Barnette asked if the easement had never been there, haw would
tt ey reoeive aocess. Mrs. Nieni stated they would have to renwe fencing in
o� der to servioe her property.
M� . Herrick, CYty Attorney, stated if the City doesn't have a street there,
t2 e question is whether there is naw arty legal right o� access. He stated,
a: he �nderstands, she easement came frcm Mr. Fbllard's property and, if it
i: vacated, it reverts back to this property. He felt before the Council
m�kes a decision, it should be verified where this easement came from and,
�u der the existing circu�nstanoes, if the public has any right of access on
tt e property.
M� s. Nieni stated, when she bouc�t the property, this wanted to purchase the
pE roel proposed for vacation, but was told it belonged to the City and was
nc t available.
-3-
COUNCIL N�EPII�G OF JANCiARY 6. 1986
Mr. Herrick stated when people say "it belongs to the City", that is
probably layman's language for the City's right to put a street in there,
however, the fee aanership apparently lies with Mr. Fbllard.
Mr. P�llard stated he, hopefully, iritends to add on to his hane and the only
way he can go is taward the easement. He stated he explained t�his to the
Planning Cortmission and they oould see r�o objections whatsoever.
Mr. Herrick stated a p�int that should be made clear is if the City is
maintaining utility easements, you cannot �nstruct on that property.
Mr. Fbllard stated Mr. F�gebretson can reach his property off Matterhorn
Drive and can get to the back of his lat on his awn property.
Mr. Engebretson stated the reason it isn't practical to come in f rom
r'�tterhorn Drive is because c� the trees and bushes which would have to be
renaved.
NDTION by Councilman Goodspeed to close the public hearing. Seconded by
Councilman Fitzg�trick. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee
declared the motion carried wzanimously and the public hearing closed at
8:26p.m.
Cbwzcilman Goodspeed stated he would like verification of the fact that this
property Fras taken fram Mr. Fbllard's lot and determire if the City has the
ric�t to give an easement wer that property.

��uld be held at the Skywood Inn and they would 1 ike a bar setup at this
1�tion. He asked if this would qualify t�der the ordinanoe.
r c. Herrick, City Attorrey, stated what is iritended is to authorize issuanoe
cE temporary on-sale intoxicating liquor licenses for non-profit
c:ganizations that have been in the City for at least three �years. He

C »cilman Barnette questioned.

t �e motion carried unanimously.
�)NSIDERATION OF A POLICY REGARDING iJNiBRELIA QOVERAGE BEYOI�ID I�DGA.L LIMITS OF
L[ABILITY (TABLED 12/16/85):
N' :. Bill Hunt af the City staff stated, at the last Council meeting, the
q iestian was raised whether unbrella wverage should be purchase for $61,000
c: whether the City should continue to look for other insurance or
a'.ternatives. Mr. H�t stated Dr. Whitrnan, the City's insuranoe a�nsultant,
a�d Mr. Olsen of T. C. Field and Compariy were present this evening to review
t ie status of the City's insuranoe wverage and to answer any questions.
D�. Whi tman stated the unbr el l a v�ver age has not been pu r cha se d be ca use i t
c>ntains a lot af exclusions and the preniun is substantially higher than
��st year. He stated they are looking at ather markets that might be more
r�asonable and pravide other �verage and the possibility of setting up a
�-ograQn invalving self-insuranoe.
D�. Whitrnan stated questions were raised at the last meeting which focused
o i public officials and law enforoe�nent liability voverage. He stated, in
t►e law enforoesnent area, ooverage has been placed with Imperial Casualty
a id it is very good ooverage and less o�stly than what was available with
t�e League c� Minnesota Cities. He stated the public officials wverage is
p irchased through the League and is actually an extension of the basic
1.ability ooverage that is available to the City and all enpla�ees, but not
i x3epencient a�ntractors such as the City Attorney.
C»cilman Schneider asked if ineqnbers of the citizens commissions were
o ►vered.
D�. Whitman stated it would have to be specified which comunission they are
r�ferring because there is a list of exclusion which include anything
r lated to housing, welfare, airports, etc.
G►�cilman Schneider asked, for example, if the Hisnan Resources Commission
m;nbers would be v�vered. Dr. Whitman felt if they were mt in the welfare
a�ea, they w�ould be wvered. �uncilman Schneider stated they do have a
r lationship with the State Department of Hunan Rights.
M�. H�t stated there is a waiver si�ed by persons who take �art in the no-
-5-
COCTNCIL I�ETING OF JANUARY 6. 1986
fault grievanoe prooedure where they would not sue, but have the right to
carry thei r grievance to the State � Minnesota.
Dr. Whitrnan stated discrimination is partially oovered, but the o�mpensation
part of the discrimination claim probably isn't covered. He stated,
however, he a�uld not find in the League's sample ooverages an exclusion
which states this is not o�vered.
Mr. Cornaay Olsen, T. C. Field and Company, stated they have provided
insuranoe to several cities for a number o� years and oanmission menbers, if
sworn and appointed, are o�vered in the same manner as an employee or an
elected official when they are ogerating on behalf o� the City Go�cil.
Colmcilman Barnette asked because of the fact that they are appointed by the
Co�cil, if the sN►orn oath was necessary. Mr. Olsen felt the commission
manbers should take an oath.
It was the concensus of the Council they would not approve an tm►brella
ooverage at this time.

F�operty aar�er imnediatly adjaoerit, they increase the r�oise le�vels to other
� -operties.
M-. Flora stated the MnDOT is asking Co�cil to oc�ncur with their report and
i� they w�uld like a presentation made to the neic�borhood or Cot,mcil.

h �s been regative. �
M�. Flora stated MnDUT has offered to have an informational meeting and
e:plain why the barriers wouldn't be a�nstructed. C;o�mcilman Schrieider felt
i: didn't make sense to have a meeting when the outcome has already been
d �termined.
N> formal action was taken by the Council, but they did receive the
i: �formation fran MnDOT and noted their report on the r�oise barriers.

Fridley City Council
FRCM: Gary R. Matz, Attorney
DATE: January 8, 1986
RE: Cable Television Transfer Request.
�
Enclosed herewith please find the Ordinance Amendment and
Acc�ptance Agreement implementing the terms and conditions
att iched to the City's approval of the transfer of ownerstiip.
It is my recommendation that you conduct a second and final
reaiing of this Ordinance and approve for execution the Acceptance
Agr�ement at your meeting of Monday, January 13, 1986. Under the
ter �s and conditions of this Ordinance the cable television
ope-ator is committing to the following:
1. Activation of a fully activated 54 channel system no
later th•an January 1�, 1990;
2. Activation of a full one-way addressable System and pro-
vision of addressable converters no later than January
1, 1990;
3. Installa�tion of an emergency alert override system no
later than January 1, 1990;
4. Provision of a public access channel, educat.ional access
channel, government access channel and library access
channel;
5. Contribution of a minimur► of One Hundred Fifty Thousand
Dollars (5150,000) in equip�ent in support of public,
educational and government programming over ten years;
and
6. Detailed customer service requirements.
�s you may recall, the recent discussions with the cable
television company have centered on the form of security to be
provided to the City to insure compliance with these commitments.
This concern was based upon the recently conducted financial ana-
lysi� of the parent corporations and the complications identified
in t�at analysis. F3riefly, the Ordinance comr�its the cable tele-
visi�n operator to the following securities:
-1-
1. Immediate delivery of a One Hundred Thousand Dollar
($100,000) performance bond conditioned upon the Company
acceptinq a renewal or extension of the present
franchise within thirty (30) days of the adoption by
City of an ordinance offerinq a renewal or extension of
that franchise;
2. Del ivery at the time of acceptance of a renewal� or
extension of this franchise of a performance bond in the
amount of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars (5500,000) con-
ditioned upon the taithful performance of the require-
ments of that renewal or extension; and
3. Guarantees to be delivered by the parent corporations.
I would like to point out that two chan_qes have been made to
the Ordinance since the first reading.
The first change appears at paraqraph G(2) on page 2 wherein
the provision has been clarified to require activation of full
one-way addressability. A previous draft of the Ordinance merely
req�i�red one-way addressable converters. The other change
app �ars on page three where two paragraphs have been added
det3iling the bond requirements.
I would, once aqain, recommend these documents for your
a�p �oval .
C:C �22:N
-2-
1J
G(2) Grantee shall activate full one-way addressability
th�oughout the System and provide to each subscriber requiring a � K
co�verter a one-way addressable converter no later than January 1,
19 �0;
,,
I. Grantee shall, at all times, until Grantee has accepted
a-enewal or extension of this Franchise, maintain with City a
bo�d in the sum of one hundred thousand dollars (5100,000) in
su:h form and with such sureties as shall be acceptable to City.
Th� bond shall be conditioned upon the Grantee acceptinq a
re �ewal or extension of this Franchise within 30 days of the
