QPIIV FORUM. VISIT�RS:
SIC�IS ON RALPH SKINNII2' S PROPIIZI'Y:
NLs. Janioe Meierbarhtal, 6171 Heather Place, presented a petition to the
��cil on behalf � 17 residents of the City, many af then present at the
meeting who had si�ed the petition.
Ms. Meierbachtal stated this petition is asking the City to enforce the Sic�
O�de at 6217 Ceritral Avenue. She stated the City has al ready notif ied the
residern. at this address that he is in violation of the Sign Code. She
stated there are several violations regarding the nunber of signs, size of
the signs, and the distance fram property lines, which is a clear violation
of the Sign Code.
Ms. i�feierbachtal stated the letter sent to this resident also states that he
renave the sic,g�s or axnply with the o�de. She stated, as of. this evening,
the sic�s are still up and in violation. She stated, as the next action,
the Sic� CAC3e states if the aarer fails to ranwe such illegal sic�ns or make
then oomgly with tfie oode, these signs may be renoved by the City. Ms.
NSeierbachtal stated they are asking the City exercise this right to remove
the signs. She stated illegal si�s are a niisdena3n�r in the City.
Ms. Meierbachtal stated the,� appreciated the Council's attention to this
matter and would like a response to this request by or at the next Council
meeti ng.
I�DTION b� Councilman Schr�eider to reoeive the petition submitted by Janice
rSeierbachtal. Seoonded ty Councilman Fitzpatrick. Upon a voice vote, all
vating aye, Mayor Nee c3eclared the motion carried iu�animously.
l�yor Nee stated there are two issues involved, and one is between two
property owners. He stated the City has proposed what would be a r�sonable
accor�anodation to which Mr. Brickner agrees, but it is questionable on the
part of the ather party, Mr. Skiru�er.
Mayor Nee stated the other issue an the signs is direct and within the
C�.ty's jurisdiction.
Mr. N�aman, (�ty Attorney's Office, stated in regard to the placement of
sic�s, one of the concerns is the constitutional question of freedom of
speech. He stated the Sign Ordinance principally addresses signs of a
aammercial r�ature. He stated Mr. Skinner has a oertain aonstit�tional right
to express his feelings, but believes the City has the right to impose
oertain restrictions. Mr. NE�ama.n stated he hasn't had sufficient time to
explore the constitutional issue, hawever, it is clearly a different
situation than someone having a oaimnerical sign advertising their property.
Mr. Newn�an stated the petitioners bave requested the City to reqnove the
signs. He stated, it has been the practice that before the City take such a
step, a lawsuit is oomnenoed to say the sic�s do aonstitute a violation of
the ordinance. He stated if the City renoves the signs and the court
-2-
���� �!� ��. � Y '
c etermines the property aaner had the right to have the sign, this could

[ p�n a voioe vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried
c zanimously.
C��cilman Schneider stated he reoeived calls fran several residents in the
G rea and hoped an agreanertt wuld be reached between Mr. Brickner and Mr.
f cinner which would eliminate the reed for Mr. Skinner to keep t� the si�s.
r r. Newman stated one procedure would be to charge Mr. Skinner with
v ialation of the ozdinance. He stated this would take a minim�an of four
n�nths knawing there are oertain oonstitutional defenses. He stated the
G Ltimate result is Mr. Skinner could be fined or ordered to physically
i 3nave the sicyis. Mr. Newn,an stated a declaratory action would take a
n inimun a� six months through t�e oourts.
C�uncilman Schneic3er stated it seens the most expedient way for the signs to
t� renaved is to have an agreenent between the two property awners, Mr.
P :ickner and Mr. Skinner.
M-. Qureshi, City Manager, stated he has met separately with Mr. Brickner
a ld Mr. Skinner and tried to put forth a proposal that is fair to both
F irties. Mr. Qureshi stated Mr. Brickner accepted this proposal, and the
C.ty is awaiting a response fran Mr. Skinr�er. N',r. Qureshi stated if Nir.
S:inner accepts the proposal, there wouldn't be a r�eed for any signage.
M�. Jim McCul loch, 6165 Heather Pl ace, stated the oade say s Mr . Sk i nne r i s
i i violation. He felt, if this was the case, the City should take some
a:tion and the a�de enforced.
r� . Netiaman stated he is recommending no action be taken until the next
m�eting so the o�nstitutior�l issues can be reviewed.
M�. McCulloch stated he would like a progran by the next meeting to get this
m itter settled as quickly as possible.
M �yor Nee stated the cnde is basically for oar�+erical sicg�s. He stated this
i> a sic� of a different gender and that raises the question of whether or
n>t it is a�vered under the stark reality of the letter of the lasa.
M�. Meierbachtal stated they appreciated the Council's attention to help
s� �lve this matter and would like to prooeed with a solution no matter haw

wettest Nl�y on zec�rd, but he has an estimated 53,000 in damages to his
basemerit and felt the stozici sewer systen was a oontributing factor as it has
bec�me ineffective wer the o�urse af the past 30 years.
Mr. Nelson presented a drabaing of holding pc�rcLs and the stona sewer system
in effect. Mr. Nelson stated water rtais dawn Mississippi all the way fran
Arthur Street, and the storm sewers on Creek Park Lane ru1 across the park,
and end up in the halding area behind his hane. He stated this holding
pond, wer the last 30 years, has filled in and presently there is only an
area about 10 by 50 feet.
Mr. Nelson stated the C�ty has given him assurances something would be done
b� ditching or a drainage area going west to Old Central and then proceeding
south on Old Central to Nbore Lake.
Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated at one time, there was discussion about a
storm sewer system for this area, hawever, because of the costs, most
resider�ts di�'t want to prooeed and the project was dropped.
Mr. Qureshi felt if the City can obtain permission, there is a deep lot
north af Mr. Nelson's property and a logical area where the City could do
sbme ditching to divert the water to the west, along Old Central, and put
culverts u�der �aved driveways for the r�off to drain to Moore Lake. Mr.
Qureshi stated this wouldn't be a perfect solution because of the
shallowness of the depth fran his hane to the lake which are both about the
same el ev ati on.
Cbtimcilman Schneider stated Mr. Nelson questioned if this ponding area was
ever an official holding pond. Mr. Qureshi stated it was not and presented
1959 aerial drawings which shaas a swamp� area, but never in public
owr�ership or any type of o�ntrol.
Mr. Nelson stated he had met with Mark Burch of the City's Engineering
DeFartment, other menbers of the �gineering staff, and Co�cilman Schr�eider
and would like to thank then for their concern and help in attempting to
resolve this problen. He stated he would like support � the Oauncil for an
expedient solution to this prob�len.
Mr. Qureshi stated permission would be reeded before they can c� on private
progerty to prwide an outlet for this water. He stated any influence Mr.
Nelson may have to expedite the City's efforts would be appreciated.

Mr. Hill stated the adjoining cor�cn�ities of Colunbia Heights, O�on Rapids,

�lr. Flora, Public Works Director, stated in January, 1985, the Planning
+ar�unission reviewed changes to Chapter 214 of the Sign Ordinance and no
� hanges were made in re�erenoe to p�lan sicy�s. He stated in April, 1986,
he Council made a motion to staff directing that a prop�sed draft revision
��f the sicyz ordinance be presented to the Council by the last meeting in
i l�y .
; Ir. Flora stated staff preserited two alternative approaches for pylon sign
: ev i si ons t o th e Pl anni ng CatIIni ssi on a t th ei r May 7, 1986 meeti ng. He sta ted
i he CArranission supported a revision which correlates sign size to both
I Usiness size and zoning.
I lr. Flora stated the rationale for the proposed revisions were based on the
: oll aa ing : (1) th e enf or oenent. c� 80 squa re f eet � ar ea per dev el ognent i s
r ot sensitve to business size or zoning; (2) the existing sign area
estrictions have prcmpted n�xnerous variance requests, many of which have
I een grarYted; (3) evaluating sign policy on a case by case basis, with
� ariances, leads to inconsistencies in enforoe�nern and fosters competition
I�etween busir�esses seeking larger sic�s; (4) the proposed amendments will
�:reate a fair systen which can be used as a tool to discourage variance
: equests; (5) the proposed amendments are desic�ed to maintain the Fridley
standard" of 80 square feet of sign area for small and medium size
+levelognents in C-1, C-2 and C-3, up to 8,000 square feet of floor area; (6)
1 he proposed amenc�nents restrict C-1 local (neighborhood) businesses to 80
, quare feet of sic� area only; (7) the prop�sed amer�nerrt.s allaa for medi�un
,,ized signs, up to 120 square feet in area, in C-2 or C-3 zones for
I usinesses greater than 8,000 but less than 20,0.00 square feet in area; (8)
1 he proposed amenc�nents allaa for larger sized sic�s, up to 180 s�uare feet
: n area, in C-2 and C-3 2ones for•large business developments greater than
a 0�000 square feet in area; and (9) the proposed changes treat C-2 and C-3
.,ones equally because : similar permitted uses; some large vacant C-2
; aroels; and a few large existing C-2 develognents.
Ilr. Flora stated the proposed changes were also discussed by the Appeals
� btranissi on and an additional recx�m�renda ti�ri was to have devel ognerrt s i n C-1,

O�taicilman Fitzpatrick stated one c� his reactions is that this is the third
major proposal he has seen. It seems to him the Council is sending a
message that if you can't have it naa, wait around, and the criteria on
which �ey are judging will change.
O�ta�cilman Schneider wondered if it is warranted to go up to 180 square
feet, and if requests were mac3e in the past. for this size and were granted.
Mr. Flora stated sane adjoining oomn�ities have sic�s wer 200 square feet
and others determine the size c� a sic� based on traffic.
Mr. Qureshi stated staff was instructed to bring a proposal to the Council
b� this meeting. He felt if Gotuicil wanted an analysis of the variances
over the last five years or so, this could be brought back at the next

t r. Robertson, Qatun�ity Developner�t Director, stated this is a request for
� variance to reduce the f ront yard setback f rom 35 to 9 feet to allow
� �nstruction of additionl living space. Mr. Robertson stated the hardship
4 as the house is too snall for the fanily and due to the odd lot shape, it
a s difficult to acoomplish anything without a variance.
� r. Rs�berton stated the petitioner's house is the last house on Ashton
kefore the street curves to the left onto Rice Creek Way. He stated the
c urb curves to the west and the right-of-way curvrves to the east causing the
4 xistng house to be closer than the required 35 feet fram the front lot lir�
�3pproximately 11 feet).
r r. Robertson stated the neic�boring property aar�er to the s�uth had sent a

C��mcilman Fitzpatrick stated it seens to be an extrene request to reduce
t ze setback from 35 to 9 feet, but that really isn't what is happening. He
:=ated the house is setback 33 feet in the middle c� the front of the house.
i� e stated the street in front curves off to the west and the property line
c.irves off to the east and, therefore, it really is setback quite a ways
a lthough, technic,ally, the property line is only nir�e f eet. He stated the
F irpc>se must have been to keep the lot out f ran the f ront of the park.

Cb�cilman Fitzpatrick stated his ratianale is it is not encroaching on the

the property line cbes veer aff to the east.
Ms. Kelley, the petitioner, stated they have a�►ly an eic�t foot wide dining

Mr. R�bertson stated these variances are for property located in the Center
C�ty area at 6299 University Avenue. He stated the petitioner, Mr. Doty,
was before the Appeals Commissian in 1982 for the variances and the request
was slic�tly modif ied. He stated this iten never we�t to Council, however,
as Mr. Doty withdrea his request.
Mr. Robertson stated there were some modifications made at the staff level
to reduce the nunber of variances required. He stated, by changing the
setbacks on the street, it oomes cbwn to a req�st for variances to reduce
the driving a.isle frcm 25 to 23-1/2 feet, the setbacks on the yards fran 15
to 10 feet and fran 35 to 30 feet. He stated the adjustments were made in
order to allaa the 18 foot deep parking stall.
Mr. Robertson reviewed the 11 stipulations staff was prog�sing which a>vered

signac�, site plan modifications, right-�-way easenents, walkway easement,
pa rki ng 1 ot 1 ighti ng, dr ai r� ge pl an, and perf ormanoe bond.
Mr. Dave Harris, aarer of the property directly south of this location,
stated he wasn`t irivolved in the planning process as notices of the
variances went out to the person who was a previous owr�er of the building.
Mr. Harris stated his cbncerns are still the same as when Mr. Doty appl ied
before for the variances. He stated Mr. Doty's building wouldn't line up
with their building and visua2 acoess for tenants in their building would be
htocked. Mr. Harris also felt there would be a problen with snow storage in
the winter.

M arits to make sure their tenants don't lose their visual aocess.
r r. Doty, the petitioner, stated he appzeciated Mr. Harris' concern. He
f:ated he was scheduled to be rn the CA�mcil's agenda two weeks ago and the
C �ty Attorr�ey is Dave Harris' partrier and was certain he knew this was on
t ie agenda. He stated he really dic�'t want to faoe another p�stponsnent as
h� wanted to begin annstruction as soon as possib�le.
N-. Doty stated if the building is mv�red back, it creates a problan for the
F irking. He stated if the size c� the building is reduced, the economics
a:en't there as other o�sts such as sprinkling and lanciscaping would be the
s une. Mr. Doty stated one of the things discussed with Mr. Harris was the
�: >ssibility af same o�mrtnon parking on the north side o� Mr. Harris' building
a x3 the south side o�' his building.
M-. Harris felt sane arrangement could be made to grant Mr. Doty six or
s�ven parking spaces in their parking lot and he felt this would make the

M �yor Nee thought perhaps something may be worked out that would be

Attorr�ey, 158 was mentianed.
In rec�ard to the iosses for the City, Mr. Johnson stated in the Medtronic
appeal, there would be a loss of $293,000 plus interest which would probahly
bring the total up another $100,000. He stated Medtronic in 1985 asked f or
an adjustment in their market value � wer $8,000,000. Mr. Johnson stated

"r. Robinson stated this property was located on Gurm��ood St, beta�een 77th
�nd 78th, ju5t east of the railroad tracks. The property was zoned M-2,
reavy industrial, and was consistent with the other properties in the area.
�he proposal was to vacate the utility and drainage easeMents which remain
r, ver t��e western half of the vacated Gur�wood St. t111 the road ri ght-of-ways
have been vacated in subsequent vacation proceedinc�s. The reasan for
t�e vacation was because the petitioner was proposing to construct a r�arehouse/
�3nufacturing type buildinc� to the south of the existing buildin� which woul�i
��croach into the easecient and up to the property line.
F��. Robinson stated the utility companies have been contactPd. (There is a
gis line and an electrical line.) tlinnegasco has indicated that the gas line
i� strictly a private line, and they have no interest in r�aintaining an
eisenent. NSP has a line, but they are willing to wnrk with the peti*.�oner
kith a private easement and they will be doing some relocation of that line.
M�, Robinson stated there was a variance associated ►�ith this project which
w�uld go to the tlay 13th Appeals Cormiission meeting and a special use perr�it
f�r outside storage wl�ich would go to the next Planning Coemission r�ePtin�.
Tie vacation request, variance request, and special use permit request �rould
all go to City Council on June 2.

Z. Final vacation approval contingent upon a pproval of side yard
setback variance.
3, The east ►vall of the proposed building must be a four hour, full
fire wall with no openings.
fhe petitioner, t1r. Kohanek, stated the reason they selected the location for
the building in front of the existinq huilding instead of at the rPar of the
�xisting building was they wanted the loading docks facing south because of
inclement weather. It would all be fenced and enclosed.

with traffic in the area.
Mr. John Kosnas, I�C Design, stated they are doing the design work for Q
Petroleun. He stated they had a study done through a wnsulting firr� to try
and establish the increased valune o� traffic.
Kr. Kim Anderson stated a n�nber of studies were done and this �articular Q
store has a relatively low valune of traffic. He stated they looked at the
�igher vol�ane stations which service 50 to 90 cars per hour, and this
�tation operates at about 30. He stated the car wash would generate
�irtu311y no additional traffic itself. He stated most cars would be o�ming
:o the station for cps as their first priority and then �ing the car wash.
ie stated they are estimating 30 cars per hour for four hours of the peak
�eria3s and this would be about half the daily volume. He stated, assuQning
i 20� increase and that sane would make use of the car wash, there would be
�n additional 12 to 15 cars per hour which is�'t a high volune.
".r. Kosnas stated they would be eliminating one of the exits on 53rd and
�iagot�a:lly placing the p�nps to imprwe the traffic flaa.
b�cilman Fitzpatrick stated his ooncern is increasing the n�nber of cars
:xiting frcr� the servic� raad. He stated turning left from this exit is
�lmost ur,Fossible.
':r. Kosnas stateo one of the atte�pts to oontrol this is the positioning of
he p�;ps and to try and mave the exit farther west on 53rd.
�ayor ree stated the City has, in the past, traded land and vacated
ight-of-w�• along Highway 65 to prwide a loopback. He stated this solves
�rc,bla�s for the o���ity and, in a wa}�, imprwes exposure and acce�� f or
he business.
!'r. P'arlen Besler, President of Q Petroleun, stated they wished to consider
his ottion, if the Gity would approve the car wash. He stateC they are
, nxious to work with the City to resolve this issue and improve thei r

tayor Nee felt this arrangement would be good for Mr. Be�ler's busine:::.

c �lmcilman Barnette felt if the City was going to consider a loopback,
a epresentatives of �inbers should be included in the discussion.

►EARING OPEN AT 8:47 P.M.
ir. Robinson stated the zoning was C-3, and the surrounding properties were
�lso zoned C-3.
Ir. Robinson stated the reason the petitioner was applying for a special use
�ermit was because of bad soil conditions.The present building was continually
ettling causing structural problems. The petitioner planned to remove the
�resent structure, but in doing so has to meet today's codes. Four variances
��ere heard by the Appeals Comnission on March 11, and the Appeals Comnission
iade some specific recommendations regarding those variances.
PLl1r �ING COPIMISSION �4EETING, �1ARC4i 19, 1986 PAGE 8
P1r. Robinson stated the layout was quite different from the old layout in
that the building and the pumps would be situated at an angle on the
property in order to improve traffic flow. Also to improve traffic flow,
they have closed the existing easterly driveway onto 53rd Ave. The City
has also asked for green space and landscaping with automatic sprinkling
in order to bring tF�e property up to code as much as possible.
Hr. Robinson stated the Appeals Commission decided the addition of the car
Nash added to the variances for the site so they recommended sane reduction
in the rear yard setback and the front yard variances to allow for more
�reen space on 53rd Ave. The petitioner has revised the drawings to meet
these requirements with the car wash still included.
1r. Robinson stated Staff was recommending the following stipulations:
1.

4.
5.
Petitioner to obtain approval and implement a landscape plan.
Petitioner to obtain approval and implement a storm drainage plan.
Petitioner to submit a performance bond to cover the site

or destabilization of surrounding property.

property to be granted to the City.

1r. Betzold stated the first variance regarding the size of the lot had to
�e granted because if it was not, nothing could be built on the lot. It
ias possible to construct the building without any other variances, but the
�etitioner wanted tf�e building constructed at an angle for visibility of
.he gasoline pumps from the building. The Appeals Cormission expressed some
:oncern about overbuilding on the lot, so they tried to reduce the variances
�ecause they thought a smaller building would be more appropriate. 7hey
ried to avoid the car wash issue.
Ilr. John Kosmas, KK Design, stated the car wash would be a full-service,
oll-over car wash. It was a convenience-type service connected with the
�ale of gas. It would not be promoted as a single source business.
's. Gabel asked about stacking space to get into the car wash.
fr. Robinson stated he did not think Q Petroleum was anticipating a heavy
kse of the car wash. There seemed to be enough stacking room for four cars
rithin the driveway itself.
�s. Gabel stated she shared the same concern as the Appeals Comnission in that
�his seemed like a good deal of overbuilding on that lot,
�r. Kosmas stated one of the objectives his firm had in serving Q Petroleum
aas to loosen up tl�e whole site. To him, it appeared more congested nov�
�han it would with the new proposal, The new proposal would open the site
�p for more visibility.

PLAI PJIf�G COMMISSIOP� MEETIP�G, MARCN 19, 1986 PAGE 9
ttr. Robinson stated the Y�riances seemed like an extreme request because of the
zoning, C-3. Actua'lly, if the property was zoned C-1 or C-2, there would be no
need for any variances because setbacks and lot area would not be nearly as severe.
Mr. Kosmas stated that in conversations with Q Petroleum, he gave them some
alternatives: (l� maximize back to retail; (2) go with a car wash of a
little different size which wo�ald allo►� them �o increase the retail; (3) go
with a car wash in tliis combination with a dryer. Q Petroleum preferred the
car wash with a dryer and the scale of the retail was reduced to accor�anodate it.
'�r. Rod Qrannon stated he owned the car wash imnediately to the north. He
stated he was not opposed to the variances that allowed the rebuilcling of what
�as there now, but he was opposed to the addition of a car wash to that building
�rhich was more than they had before.
'1r. Qrannon stated t1�at approximately one year ago, four variances were
approved by the City to build tl�e Pickwick building, f�e had expressed concern
tfiat tlie City was taking a building twice the size of his building and a lot
�alf the size of his lot and granting a variance to move that building from
�0 ft. to 5 ft. from his property line. Now the Pickwick building sits right
�n his property line and virtually screens his entire business. He was supposed
to f�ave ►vorked with the owner and the City on the landscaping, but to this day
ie has not been contacted by eitlier party. Eight pyramidal arborvitae we►•e
�u � i;� �►'�i c.� n�� �! ake up another 15 ft. and screen more of hi s property, and
�here r�as an oversized dumpster pad. So, nine �nonths out of the year, his
�usiness was not visible from 53rd Ave. He stated his business was down 25%.
ie stated this might rot be germaine to this disc�ission, but he has seen a�hat
�our variances the City approved i�as done to his business. He stated he would
=ic�ht this on the basis that city ordinances were for the protection of every-
�ody and to take into consideration the rights of everybody. The City has to
�sk itself: Is this proposal in the best interest of all its neighbors? From
�is standpoint, the answer was "no".
ts. Gabel stated that regarding t}ie landscaping, Staff was going to have to
�et together with Nr. Brannon to work something out. She remembered the
tipulations that were nade on those variances, and there should be some
'ollow-up on then.
Is. Dorothy Brannon stated she thought the car v�ash was goinc� to add to the
raffic. She was sure Q Petroleum wanted the car wash to attract business.
f the car wash was successful, she did not think there was adequate stacking
oom for it. If it was not successful, then ►•�hy add a car wash? When the
�riginal Q Petroleum building r�as constructed, there v�ere not a lot of rules
�nd regulations on landscaping, tJow the City had an opportunity to upgrade
I�e landscaping, and she did not see tlie City doing that by allowing so r�any
�ariances which, in turn, then allows the car wash which competes with a
tusiness already estabiished in the immediate area. She agreed that this
�roposal would be an improvement over what was there now, and there was a need
�o upgrade this corner. She was .just not sure that this corner could support
rore traffic, and she felt the lot was already overbuilt. With a cai� wasli,
ihere was going to be a lot more traffic in and out.

R �ARDING: Q-Petrole�n
'I ie Q-Petrole�n representatives have requested that the attached plan be
�.aced back on the June 2, 1986 Council agenda. This plan meets the
s�tback requirenents reoonunended by the Appea�s Commission on r;arch 11,
1 �86.
A:tempts to secure a r��utual agreer,�ent to remove the service road and
p�ovide an improved private circulation system with joint drivewa}�
a�reanents between ¢Petrole� ana F7;�bers is apparently frustrated. Ti,e
a:tached letter frcm John Kc>snas, the consultant representing Q-Petroleur�,,
d:tails the reasons for their dropping their eftorts to secure a written
c�,�ittrnent frcm the F��ers. Ztao prima�� concerns are apparent: 1) the
E,ibers insistence on written agreement from Q- Petroleum M�hich would
p-eclude any building, now or in the future, closer to tnan 107' to tne
h,ghway �65 k.O.W. anci 2) the costs associated with new drivewa� s ar�d
u :ility reconstruction.
Z�e Emnbers is extrenely concerned about visual access to thEir site and
t�us the setback condition. It should be noted that the Etnbers sett,ack is

A plan with the variances reoom¢nended b� the Appeals Co�mission as well as
t ie plan wit'ti joint driveways is attached for your review.

Ezclosed are twelve copies of the plans for the proposed
C-Petroleun project at 53rd and Central Avenue that I would
1Cke presented for the Council's approval. Their approval
azd your recoa�mendation is requested for the following:
1. Conditional use permit for the Car Wash.
2. Conditional use persit for the Gasoline Station.
3. Variance granted for 70' setback at 53rd �nd
Central rather than 80'.
4. Variance granted for 15' rear setbac
5. Variance granted for 23,746 S.F. lot
than 35, �0 S. F.
6. Variance granted for 5' and 10' green
drive/parking areas rather than 20'.
k rather than 40'.
area rather

TLis proposal is the same one reviewed by the Planning
C>m�ission and Appeals Board prior to the Council's request
f�r us to explore the possible relocation of the frontage
r�ad to the west of the proposed building. As you lanow, a
g,eat deal oi effort has been spent to help change the
s'�tuation of the frontage road and the intersection of 53rd
aid Central. Unfortunately, the solutions which developed
p.aced all of the costs on the Q-Petroleuai property not only
f>r general construction but for all future maintenance.
A.so, �he setback restructions requested by the adjoining
p•operty owners and their tenant, F�bers Restaurant, creates
ai undue hardship for the development of the property.
I am not opposing the thought that it would be a benefit
t> both properties and all of the adjoining devLlopsents
t► have the two way traffic.located further west. What I
d� not agree with is that Q-Petroleum is responsible Yor
a:.l of the cost� and additional set'back restrictions. Also,
a� was stated by Ken Anderson of Barton-Aschoan Associates,
Z�c., Traffic Consultants� in his letter of April ?, 1986
a��d presented at the previous Council meeting� that based on
t;ie site plan presented and the anticipated traffic volu�es,
n�► operational problems an-site or any queuing onto the street.
page 2
�herefore, I would like you to consider the site p�an as
�resented with the two curb cuts at the extreme locations
►way from 53rd & Central and back from the frontage road
Lntersection, the existing curb cut at the S.E. corr�er of
:he site removed, the 15' easement for the existing water
.ine on the north property line and all of the site improve-
4ents (curbs, landscaping, yard sprinkler and trash enclosure)
•equested by the city.

Re: O-Petroleum Station
53rd Avenue Northeast at Central Avenue
Fridley, Minnesota
Dear Mr. Kosmas:
OwnE rs of the existing motor fuel station plan to reconstruct their present facility.
Imprc vements will include additional pump islands and a reconstructed retail sales
build ng. They also wish to provide a single stall, quick service automatic car wash,
attac ied to the retail sales building. The City of Fridley has requested that we evaluate
the t affic impact of this car wash.
EXIS 'ING CONDITIONS
Base� on information provided by O-Petroleum, the existing facility experiences 200 to
225 r�tail sales per day, principally motor fuel sales or motor fuel sales in conjunction
with ncidental retail purchases. During normal peak hours, the pump island activity level
is ap� roximately 30 vehicles per hour. This usually occurs on weekdays between the hours
of 7: i0 to 9:00 A.M. and 4:00 to 6:00 P.M. (Note that this represents almos[ 50 percent of
their total daily activity.)
BAR� �ON-ASCHMAN STUDIES
Base� on studies of high volume motor fuel stations in the Twin Cities metropolitan area
and i i the Chicago area, Barton-Aschman Associates, Inc. has found peak hour volumes of
50 tc 90 pump visits on normal weekdays. Comparative studies between stations with car
wash facilities and stations without a car wash, show that stations with car washes can
have as much as 20 percent more traffic at the pumps when compared to stations without
a wa, h facility.
Car vash utilization studies show that over 95 percent of the car wash traffic includes
fuel � urchase. (Note that pricing structures are geared to encourage motor fuel purchases
as p� rt of the car wash activity.) Stations with an active car wash can attract up to 30
perc� nt of the pump island traffic to the wash facility.
�
2 Q
Bart �n-Aschman Associates, inc.
Mr. ;. �hn Kosmas
April 7, 1986
Page 2
Car � iashes of the type proposed at this station have a maximum service rate of 15 to 20
vehic les per hour under virtually continuous operation. Normal operation (during peak
hour: ) are 10 to 12 washes per hour.
PRO!'OSED OPERATION
The y ew O-Petroleum facility will be designed to accommodate additional pump volumes.
Assu ning an increase of 20 percent over its present peak hour volume, the new station
will � enerate 35 to 40 visits during each of the peak hours. Assuming 30 percent of these
pumF visits also use the car wash on heavy activity days, a peak hour volume of 12
vehic les can be anticipated in the car wash. Since this anticipated volume is less than the
discF arge service rate, queuing problems should not occur. The proposed four to five
vehic le staging area will be more than adequate to accommodate waiting vehicles.
Base I on our review the site plan and anticipated traffic votumes utilizing this site, we do
not � �ticipate any operational problems on-site or any queuing onto the street.

Public pur.pose served by this requirement is to limit visual encroach-
ment into neighboring sight lines and to allow for aestheti�ally pleasing

E. STATED HARDSNIP:
"7he existing lot size and shape are odd."
C . ADMII�ISTRATIVE STAFF REVIEW:
The petitioner would like to remove the existing Q Petroleum facility
and after removal, reconstruct a new one as per their submitting plat
plan. The new facility would have a car wash that the existing facility
does not.
There is no other vacant land that could be added to this property to
bring it into code compliance. The staff has reviewed the proposal and
has communicated with the petitioner some of the City's concerns and
this plan as it now exists seems reasonable.
The staff has no stipulations to suggest if the Board recommends
approval of this request.
t4+. Clark stated that as the Commissioners probably kn�w, Q Petroleum was
l�cated on 53rd Ave. and Central Ave. between Target and Central Ave. If
g►anted the variance, they planned to tear down the existing structure wliich
hcs some structural problems. Improper soil correction was done at the time
tte existing structure was built so the building is settling. All variances
w�re as a result of tl�e lot not being large enough. They do plan to add a car
w�sl�. Even if they did not add on the car wash and just haci a retail/service
s�ation facility, they could probably reduce the degrees of the variances,
bEt variances would still have to be granted in order to use the lot. ttr. Clark
s�owed the Commissioners an aerial photo of the area.
�1� , Joi�n Kosr��as, KK Design, stated part of the reason for the need for variances
w�s because the property i�as been reduced in scale over the years. because
tle widening of Central, the service drive, and 53rd Ave. He stated they are
proposing a convenience store/service station with a drive-through car wash
t� the rear of the proposed building, causing sone of the setback requirements.
Tley have tried to keep the buiiding to the back side of the lot to keep the
f�or�t area more open. They are looking at closing the easterly access onto
5 rd Ave. to help relieve congestion.
�4�. Gerou asked if the car wash would increase traffic.
• - 3� B
APPE4L5 COttt1ISSI0�� t1EETIt�G, �4ARCH 11, 1986 PI1GE 6
t�r, Kosnas stated the car wash was more of a convenience service connected to
t�e sale of gas. Q Petroleum did a reasonably good business noa�, and he did
r�t see the car wash generating a great deal of traffic on its own, They ,�ere
trying to eliminate some congestion on the site by positioning the car wash in
tie back of the structure. �
M^. �etzold asked if there was any concern regarding landscaping.
t�-. Kosnas stated they are working with Jim Robinson. Planning Coordinator,
o� a landscape plan.
M�. Rod arannon stated he o�m ed the car wash irmediately to the north and west of
G Petroleum. He stated that in order to remodel the convenience store/service
s:ation, variances were needed, but where was the hardship that involved adding
a car r�ash to that facility?
M-. Betzold stated the request was for variances for a building, not necessarily
f�r a car wash, and tl�e Commission could not determine how the petitioner wanted
ty use the property as long as it was within the proper zoning of tl�e City. The
C�rmissio�� was more interested in what size the building was and where it was
g�i��g to be located on the lot tiian they were about what was inside the buildinq.
M•. Betzold asked the petitioner that if there was no car wash on the building,
h�w would that affect their request for variances?
�t•. Kosnas stated that if the car wash was not added, their request for variances
w�uld probably remain the same. ,
M•. Bra m�on stated the Pickwick Store was built with variances. He now t�as a
b�ilding that is practically sitting on his property line because of four variances
a�proved by the City. That building has no�� effectively screened his entire
c r wash business from 53rd Ave. That building takes up approximately 43Y of
t e lot. The building has a dunpster pad tfiat is about twice the size needed,
a�d the owner was supposed to put in low lying shrubs. Instead they put in
t ees in front. Driving by on 53rd, nine months out of the year, his car wash
w s not visible, That was what four variances had done to his business. 44e
s.ated that here were another four variances to put in a competitive business
o ti�e same property line. He felt the City had an obligation and responsibility
t� bring in new tax dollars, but he also felt as strongly that the City had an
olligation and responsibility to protect the people who are already paying taxes
1 ke himself. He stated he has lost 25p of his business since the Pickr�ic�
b�ilding was built. Ile stated he felt very strongly against the car wash going
iw. It was a question of his livelihood, and t�e would fight it all the way.
M�, Brannon stated there are adequate boundaries and grassy areas all around
tle United Store just to the north of him. His building was the same. Now he
w<s confronted with a buil��ng (PiCkwick) that was virtually on his property
1•ne. Did the City want a building ti�at he couid no longer maintain because
hE did not have the cash flow to maintain it?

Mr. Clark stated there was a public hearinq scheduled to be held before the
Flanning Corunission on March 19 for a S�ecial use permit for the car wash and
service station, Ne suggested that this car wash discussion would probably
te more ap?ropriate at that meeting.
Fr.�rannon stated he was not opposed to the variances that were requested.
fe was opposed to the car wash. Q Petroleum already has a service station
�nd convenience store and now wants to put in a car wash in direct competition
to I�is car wash. They already have two sources of income with potentially
�hree, He has only one source of income, and that is his car wash. He stated
•f the car wash is a full service exterior wash, there is not so much competition,
kut if it is a roll-over, as opposed to a self-service car wash, then there is
c irect cor��petition.

JEARING CLOSED AT 8:28 P.M.
Ilr. Plenel stated he felt the petitioner was trying to do too much on a lot of
his size. Tl�ere were four variances being requested, and the largest was the
�ear yard setback from 40 ft. to 10 ft. He woulcl iike to speak in favor of
�mitting the back building, leaving the present retail bui3ding of 32 ft. x 50 ft.,
llowing a variance of around 20 ft. on the rear ]ot ]ine.
Ir. Clark stated if the building stayed the same size without the car wash, then
.he building could be moved north, because there would not have to be a driveway
�ehind. The front yard variance off 53rd could go from 80 ft. to approx. 70 ft.
n turn, that additional space could increase the green area along the sidewalk
in 53rd from 5 ft, to 10-12 ft.
4r. Clark stated he did not think they could come up with exact numbers but
�ome general ideas of what could be done if tF�e car wash was not added behind
;he proposdd building.
4s. Gerou stated she would be willing to go along with Lhe revised variances
►s opposed to the ones being requested. She was in complete disagreement to a
•ear yard variance from 40 ft. to ]0 ft, because of the objection expressed by
1r. Brannon.
1r. Barna agreed. He stated the first variance to reduce the required Tot size
vould almost have to be grandfathered in because the lot has been reduced in
�ize tf�rough no fauit of the owner through road acquisition.
�r. Barna stated he would recorrmend the front yard setback from 80 ft. to 62 ft.
�e reduced to 70 ft. This would nove the whole structure north.
�1r. Barna stated that r�garding the driveway/parking setback frori 40 ft. to
10 ft. and 5 ft., that could be returned to 10 ft, and 15 ft. by adding the
additionai �space.

C-3's requirements would make this
Thi s sar�e request was made i n 1982 and an amended recor�menclati �n r�as
forwarded to City Council increasing the setback from the south line
from the requested 5 feet to 10 feet to alloa� the petitioner to h�ve
south windo►vs. They also recornnended that the front yard be decreased
frcxn the requested 35 feet to 30 feet.
The rest of the variances were eliminated by redesigninc� the structure
and parking layout.
The stipulations of approval back tlien 4iere to subr�it a parkinq
agreement for joint use on the lot to tl�e soutf� and to grant a street
easement on the corner of 63rd and the servir.e drive.
1r. Clarl: stated this was a two-story building with a baser�ent. Ne stateci
there was a similar request on this lot in 1978 that ►vas granted. In 1982,
�r. Doty was before the Appeals Corr�nission again, anci the Appeals Cora�ission
nodified the variance request slightly. The modified recommendation
Forwarded on to thP City Council was to increase the setback on the south
line frori � f±, tv i(� ft. so the petitioner culd put windows in the south wal1.
and to clecrease the front yard setback fror� 35 ft. to 30 ft. The rest of the
variances were elia�inated by redesigning the structurP and parkinq layou*.

�'� APPE� 4.S COt1�tISSI�N MEETISJt',, APRIL 15, 1986 PAGE 6
Pr. Clark stated that in 1982 after the Appeals Cor►�ission had met anci before
�iie City Council had met to discuss the variances, the HRA took an option on
'ifLe property. In conjunction with that, �tr. Doty participated in the buil�iing
�f the Fridley Plaza Office Building next to City Hall. Mr. Doty then witl�-
�rew his variance requests, because he apparently was not goinc� to o�•rn the
rroperty, so the City �ouncil did not act on the variances. That variance
aequest was long enough ago that Mr. Doty must again petition for these
dariances.
I�r. Betzold stated that in the Aug. 24, 1982, minutes, �tr.�oty essentially
requested the same five variances that he was requesting this time. The
fppeals Commission recorr�nended to the City Council that those variance be
reduced to two variances--to reduce the side yard setback on a corner lot fror�
�lie required 80 ft, to 30 ft, and to reduce the side yard sethac4: on the s�uth
�: icle of the building fror� 15 ft, to 10 ft. t�e stateci he did not know ►rhat
f ad c�iangerl since that time that tvould justify the granting of all five
eariances.
!r. Doty stated it was his recollection that in 1Q82 there were discussions
4ith Mr. Virgil Herrick that there would be some shared parking on tf�e north
'lot line ►vith a cor�mon driveway. Since that tiMe, �1r, Nerrick has had so�e
�roposals submitted to expand his buildinq. In a recent discussion witf�
+ r. �ave NeYrtnan, tir. Doty stated Pir. Newman had stated that they ►•rere not
�resently planning to expand, but if they do, they ►vill have a parl:ing prohlem.
�r. Doty stated t�at was one of the reasons he had qone back to all five
�ariances requested in 1982.
t'r. Doty stated he was requesting that the parkinq lot aisles be reduced fror�
�5 ft. to 23.5 ft. and the parking stalls be reduced fror� 2� ft. to 1� ft.
fe stated cars have gotten smaller, and he would have a problem meetir.� the
E�arking lot provisions without those variances.
t�. Doty stated the building was exactly the sar�e as in 19II2; the only changes
H�re interior changes. It would be of the sar�e building materials as the
c:ther bui7dings in the Center City area.
Pr. Doty stated he was willing to build what should be built within reas�n,
t:�t he hoped the Cor�missioners understood that there had to be some qivP and
take in order to make this lot buildable. He stated he has been payina high
t�xes on t�iis property for 13 years, and he has invested more into the
Eroperty than it is worth on the open market.
t�r. Clark stated that if all the lot dimensions were correct--302 ft. widtl�,
b.� using 18 ft. stalls into the curbs, he came up with a width of 3�8 ft.--
� ft, short of makinq the 302 ft. If they shortened the tliree stalls fron
<< ft, to 18 ft, where t#�ey go into a curb or sideY�alk, that would make ttie
r�idth of 302 ft. Tf�e aisles could remain at 25 ft. He stated Staff had no
problem reducinc� part:ing stall depths from 20 ft. to 18 ft. into curbs or
sidewalks because of the overf�ang.
4C
APPE:F LS COPIMISSION �1EETI��G, APRIL 15, 1986 PAGE 7
�r, Clark stated the variances could be revised as foll��s:
1. The 71 ft, could 6e reduced �y 4 ft., hecause the boulevard setback
off University could be reduced from 24 ft. to 20 ft.; therefore,
the variance a�ould be from tf�e required 8c1 ft. to 67 ft. in the front yard.
�. To reduce the side yard setback on a corner lot fror� the required
IIO ft, to 30 ft.
�. To reduce the side yard set6ack on the south side of the building
fror� 15 ft, to 10 ft.
4. This variance would 6e elir�inated because the parking aisle would meet
code at 25 ft.
�. To reduce the parking lot stalls that face curbs or side►yalks from the
required 20 ft. to 18 ft.

On r:a � 28, 1986 I spoke with Gus Doty and Davio Harris regarding a mut�ally

PIBLIC HEARING OPEN AT 7:51 P.M.
P1°. Robinsor. stated this property was located on the southeast corner of
0>borne and 5th St. The property was zoned R-1 as was the surroun�iing
a�ea which included Unity Hospital. The proposal was for a �1ontessori/
d�y care facility for up to 30 children and application has been made to the
S�ate to license the facility. The age group would be 22-6 yrs., and the
h wrs of operation would be 7:00 a.m, to 6:00 p.m. flonday through Friday.
M,. Robinson stated there was no real concern at this point on the traffic
inpact to the surrounding neighborhood; however, Staff had some concern
a�out the surrounding traffic and its potential impact on the children. So,
oie of the stipulations reco�nended by Staff was to provide a fenced area
with tot lot equipment prior to occupancy. This fenced area could be in
t �e rear of the faci 1 ity.
M°. Rohinson stated the day care facility itself would be located behind
tie sanctuary of the church in the southwest corner.
8C
PLANr� It�G C0�1P�ISSI�N MEETING, MEIY 28, 1986 PAGE 4
��1°. Robinson stated the traffic concern was related to a lot of parkinn in
t�e area, both on the church property and also to the south with the Unity
H�spital development.
M•. Robinson stated Staff was recommending the following stipulations:
1. Petitioner to provide a fenced area with tot lot equi�nt
prior to occupancy.
2. Owners to work with staff to provide landscaping and concrete
curbing to meet City codes.
3. Owner to provide performance bond in the amount of �5,000
to cover site improvements.
F1r. Robinson stated he has talked to Pastor Denyes, who indicated they are
ir the process of selling the property to Nealth Central and that it migF,t
bE a waste of money to make the landscaping and curbing improvements at this
ti�ne. P1r. Robinson was suggesting that the City give the church until
SEptember to finalize their plans, but to allow the day care facility to be
irstated. If by September, the church's p]ans are not finalized, then the
ch�rch would be requir�ed to install the landscaping and curbing improvements.
Mr. Betzold asked Mr. Ratnayake that if the church might be moving, would
he still go ahead with incurring the cost of the fencing and tot lot
eq�ipment?
P1r, Ratnayake stated that if the fencing and tot lot equipr�ent are easily
moied, there would not be any problem,
Pa�tor Denyes stated that it was going to take them at least a year to build
th�ir new building so they will still be in their current facility for a
yeir after it is sold.
P1s Sherek stated she thought stipulations 2& 3 would have to be reconsidered
in September, because it will then depend upon whether a church occupied the
pr►perty or if Health Central purchased the property. If a church was going
to occupy the property, then the City would expect the landscaping and curb-
inI improvements to be made. If tt�e property was sold to Health Central,
th��n the City would have to wait until they knew Health Central's plans for
th� property.
Mr. Robinson asked Pastor Denyes if he would be willinq to make the improve-
me�ts to the property if, in fact, they do sell the property to another church.
Pa�tor Denyes stated he felt something could be worked out and could be part
of an overall sales agreement between the two �arties. Ne would be willinc�
to cormit to making the improverients if they do se11 the property to another
ch� rch.

L�F �N A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTIPIG AYF., VlCE—CHAIRPFRSON OQUIST DECLARED THE
PCBLIC HEARING OPEN AT 8:10 P.M.
Mr. Robinson stated this property was located west of Univeristy Ave, south
a1 U.S. Swim & Fitness and north of the Corununity Park. The proposal was for
ar office/warehouse facility located in M-1 industrial zoning, At this time,
tfe petitioners are not entirely sure how the facility is going to 7ease up
ir terr�s of office users. Because of the high quality office/kareRouse type
ccnstruction similar to the East River Road Business Center,.they. are anticipating it
cculd very well �ease up with a majority of office as opposed to industrial
u�ers. The special use permit is for office use in an industrial zone.
htr. Robinson stated the parcel of property is approximately 4.6 acres. The
gross floor area of the building is 58,550 sq. ft. It would normally call
fcr a speculative parking ratio of 1- 500 which would yield 117 spaces.
t4fat they are providing is 50% office/25� manufacturing/25� v�arehouse for a
tctal of 161 spaces. The petitioner feels that should be enough parkinq for
tre intended office users.

Mr, lJinkels stated it was suggested by Staff that they apply for a special
us� permit so the developer can count on that plan in terms of the use of
th� property and so the City and the developer can work together to make
su•e the parking coincides with the use. In terms of their experience, they

t�en, �Joodbridge has been moving ahead on the environmental permits and has
s�cceecied in getting their Environmental Assessment tJorksheet approved,
�n Environmental Impact Statement tvas not required. They are noY� in the
Frocess of gettinc� an Indirect Source Permit fr�m the MPCA which is quite
tir�e-consuming. I�e stated they have now suhmitted the construction plans
for the first bui7ding which is a 6-story huildinc�. In the agenda �•�as a

P1•. Betzold stated he would like to reiterate again that because the
l��peals Commission has had many variance requests regarding parking
s�all �vidtf� reductions, they feel it is an important enough issue that the
City Council should consider an ordinance change. The Appeals Commission
w�uld rather not F�ave to continue with these kinds of requests on a piece-
m�al basis.
10. 0 ffiER RUSIt�ESS:
a, Day Care Facilities
t1r. Robinson stated that because of a recent application for a special
use permit for a day care facility in an R=1 zone, it had prompted Staff
to re-evaluate tf�e City's day care restrictions. He stated Staff was
recorimending the following changes in the code`s day care provisions:
l. Redefine Section 205.03.32.F, Home Occupations, to read: Day care
facilities that serve t�velve (12) or fewer children. (This change
will bring the city code into compliance with State Law.)
2. Standardize all nomenclature of pertaininc� codes, to read: �ay care
centers/nursery schools/nurseries.
3. Allow day care centers/nursery schools/nurseries in R-1, R�-2, R-3,
and R-4 with a special use permlt provided they are to be located in
churches, private scf�ools or other structures on arterial or
� collector streets.
4. Allow day care centers/nursery schools/nurseries in C-1 and CR-1 zones
with a special use permit.
5. All day care facilities must meet �4innesota Statutes to be considered
for a special use permit.
P1;. Sherek asked if they really needed to increase the number of chil�iren
t� 12 to conforr� r�ith State Law (change #1). She stated Hennepin County
lir�its it to 10, and the City of Plinneapolis has a requirement th�t hom� day
cire cannot exceed 10 children.
'1�.Robinson stated they had received correspondence from the City Attorney's
o`fice stating they should conform with State Law. The City Attorney had
r�ceived that notification fror� the State. He stated he would check int� this
a�ain for clarification.
T�e Cor�missian members agreed with thQ changes recommencfed by
S taff.

A. PUBLIC PURPQSE SERVED BY REQUIRE�•1EtJT:
Section 205.17.5D.5a requires all parkin� and hard surface areas not
to be closer than twenty (2�) feet from any street right-of-way.
Public purpose served by this requirement is to reduce visual pollution
in the front yard, in areas adjacent to lot lines, and to separate
parking with landscaped areas.
Section 205.17.5D.4a requires a maximum driveway width of thirty-two
(32) feet at the curb opening, excluding the entrance radii.
Public purpose served by this requirement is to provide adequate area
for ingress and egress of industrial type vehicles.
Section 205.03.53 requires a ten (10) foot wide by twenty (2Q) foot lonq
area to store one (1) automobile, which has access to a public street or
alley and perr�its �ngr�ss and egress of an automobile.
Public purpose served by this requirernent is to provide adequate roon
between large vehicles.
5 COPINISSION HEETING, MAY 13, 1986 _PAGE 9
ST�TEO HARDS{�IP:
"The exceptional conditions of the site includinq: shallowness of the
parcel, large right-of-way of University Ave., a double frontage lot,
an NSP easer�ent over the south 13Q feet of the �roperty, highly
questionable soil canditions and the location af the Commerce Circle
cul-de-sac cause many practical difficulties in the design of a buil�ling,
landscaping, driving lanes, access points, and parking lot layout."
C. AD�IIP�ISTRATIVE STA�'F REVIEII:
8Z
In order for the petitioner to build the size and shape of structure he
feels is economically and functionally feasible, he is requestin� a
hardsurface setbacl: off the University side from 20 feet to 10 feet,
Qecause of the double frontage, the code requires a 20 foot sc�tback on
the east and west side of tF�is site. Due to the large grassy area bet►�►een
the east property line and the roadway itself, the variance would not
appear to be perceptible.
A hardsurface setback fror� 20 feet to 5 feet is also requested just south
of the driveway, lJith the proposed realignment of the cul-de-sac, there
will actually be ample green spaces between the parking and the street.
A driveway width variance from 32 feet to 45 feet is requested in order
to allow for semi-truck maneuverability. The petitioner has been ►vork-
ing with staff to reduce curb cuts and improve circulation in the area
of the cul-de-sac. This proposal is consistent with staff recommendatians
to the developer.
A parking stall variance for space width from 10 feet to 9 feet is
requested to provide for flexibility in tenant type and to allow for
overfloai parking fron the adjacent U.S. Swir� & Fitness Center. A special
use permit for offices in an industrial zone is now under consideration
for this development. The development is similar to the East River Road
Business Center which prograrnried 750 of gross floor area as offices to
determine par{:ing need.
Although the parking_requirements for speculative office/warehousP huil�-
ings requires �ne stall per 500 sq. ft, of gross floor area, this ratio
would prove inadeq�ate if a majority of the tenants are office. '�ine
foot stalls against the bui2ding will provide additional employee parking
while the perimeter stalls with �@ foot rvidth will be available for
visitors.
Mr. Clarl: showed the Cormissioners an aerial photo of the property. He statP�i
thc petitioner is working with a joint parking agreement with U. S. S���ir� �
Fi+ness to use sane of the parking lot during -off-pPak times. This SP.Pf1P.�
to be agreeable to both the petitioner and U. S. Swim & Fitness. Ne a�i�ie�1 tha�
thE parl:ing lots north of this property were 20 ft. from the Right of ,�;��• of
University Avenue.

� COt�tISSIOtJ t10ETit�r,, HAY 13, 1986 PAGE 10
�, Clark stated the petitioner would be going before the Planning Co�nission
�t1ay 21 regarding a special use permit for a ratio of office versus
�iustrial use; then both requests would go to City Council on June 2.
r�r, tJinkels stated they would like to make the "picture window" toward
University Ave., trying to present their best image toward University
wh�re the majority of the traffic was. He reviewed their plans �vith the
Co �nissioners.
f�r, Winkels stated that for the reasons outlined in the "stated harcishin"
in the Administrative Staff Report, they have applied for these three variances.
Ne stated the building would be 58,55� sq. ft., a one-story huildin�. They
hare tried to create a very solid nice image for the city and yet also �rotect
th� back side with extensive landscaping and conceal all the lnading docl;s.
P4r, Dave 1larris stated he sold this property to lJinfield Developments, Inc.
fie stated he would be putting up a building close by, and he wanted to make
su•e the match was good. I�e was also very concerned about parking, especially
th� shortage of parkinq for the U. S. Swim & Fitness. I)nless this new
de�elopment allows some shared parking, there are going to be some very
se•ious parking problems in this area.
Mr 4Ji nkel s stated tl�ey wi 11 be openi ng up p�rt of the parl;i ng 1 ot to II . 5.
Sw m& Fitness, but they also want to be sure that they reserve some spaces
fo� their own tenants who might come in after hours.
Mr Harris stated he was not opposed to this developr�ent. It looked like a
go�d development, and he hoped the City would allow this size building. I�e
fe t if the Commission reconmends approval of the variances, he would hope
th�y would include a stipulation that there he an ac�reement with U. S. S�vim
&'itness and the new development and possibly the City regarding shared
pa�king in order to eliminate any parking problems in the future. If t}�ere
wa , no agreement, iJi nf i el d Devei opment coul d sel l thi s property anrf the new
pr�,perty owners might not he willing to cooperate with the parl;ing.

HE. �RING CLOSL'D AT 9: DO P.1f.
Mr Barna stated that as far as the green space from the parking lot to the
hardsurface area, the �andscape plan looked good. On the east si�ie, the
arf�a between the edge af the parkir�q 1ot and the actual blacktop of Highway al
wa so extensive he did not �hinE% anyone would notice whether it was 5 ft. or
10 ft. He would have no problem with that variance. As far as the maximur�
dr veway width, he could see the need for more width for truck turn-around
on their property.
i COf41ISSI0N MEETING, MAY 13, 1986 _ PAGF 11
. Barna stated the Comnission has discussed ti�e 10 ft, wide parkin� stalls
�sus the 9 ft. wide parking stalls before, and Staff was not aware of
� possible ordinance change. The only question he would raise would he
7arding any liability.as far as joint use of the parking lot be U. S. Swim
� Fitness, and he would like to see a joint written agreement.
��
F1r. Sherek stated he agreed with Mr. Barna. He did witness the parking
pr�blems at U. S. Swir� & Fitness, and he did think a stipulation for the
sh3red parking was important.
Mr. Betzoid stated he was having difficulty with the 10 ft. wide versus 9 f t.
wide parking stalls, too. It was something he really felt the City was c�o�n�
tc have to take a good look at. It was something the City Council should
acciress and not the Appeals Commission. Ne stated he did not have a probler�
with the other variances as requested. They seemed to follow the intention
of the code, and the development lool:ed very good.

CITY OF FRIDLEY
CNARTER COP�1t1ISSI0N �•1EETING, MARCN 17, 19II6
CALL "0 ORDER:
Chair�erson Jackson called the P1arch 17, 1986, Charter Commission meeting to

��1enbe�s Present: Sue Jackson, Bruce Nelson, Margaret Hendley, Peter Treuenfels,
Francis van Dan, Ralph Stouffer, Pat Kindom
Menbe�•s Absent: Donald Betzold, Robert Schmidt
Otf�er� Present: Bill 11unt, Assistant to the City P1anager
APPROI AL OF FEQRUARY 24, 1986, CHARTER C0�IMISSIO�J MINUTES:
�dC�:'IO' BY MR. TREUENFELS, SECONDED BY MR. NELSON, TO APPROVE THE FEB. 24, 2986,
CX�,RTF R C014MISSION MINUTES AS WRITTEN,
UPO"J 1 VDICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CFIAIRPERSON JACKSOIJ DECLARED THE MOTInN
CAP,RI E D UNANII�IOUSLY .
t•ir, fiLnt stated the revised Charter the Cormissioners had received incorporated
all ti�� changes made by the Commission up to Jan. 21 and all handwritten changes
since then. Those changes were: (1) Definition of various types of voters;
(2) SECtioii 5.T5. FILING UF PE7ITI0��; (3) Removal of gender specific language.
Ne stated the Commissioners might want to take a fe4r minutes to quickly read
throuc� the revised Charter.
h1r. Nu�t stated they were still waiting for opinions from the attorney for tv�o
sectio�s: (1) Section 4.05. JUDGES OF ELECTION; and (2) Section 12.OII - questions
regarding reference to State Statute.
Mr. Huit asl:ed if tl�e Corrriission wanted to recommend this revised Charter go on
to the City Council or wait until the opinions were received from the attorney.
Mr, vai Dan handed out copies of an article from the �1inneapolis Star E� Tribune
dated larch 8, 1986, entitled, "Judge rules in favor of petition". The article
stated: "aloor�ington residents need not be registered voters to petition for
a roll�ack of pay raises to the mayor and City Council, a liennepin County
Distri;t Judge (Judge Patrici� Fitzgerald) ruled Friday." The article also
stated "The t�fnnesota Supreme Court has rules that the term 'elector' means
one wh� has a constitutional and statutory right to vote, vrhether or not such
right s exercised by registration." E1r, van Dan stated the Corr�nission had
strugg ed for some time with the term "elector".
• ��
CH/1R1ER COti�•1ISSIO�d �1EETIPIG, MARCH 17, 1986 PAGE 2
Mr. �an Dan stated he agreed with some people in Bloomington also that they had
no right to exclude people because, he believed democracy meant they should
incl��e the greatest possible number of people. So when ihey do initiate action
by petition, r�hether it be a nominating petition or a recall or impeachment
petition, or a petition for an initiative to initate or generate an ordinance.
registration, he would stand for the greatest number of possible neople. Whether
it wa� a Fridley resident who recently moved but has resided in Fridley for the
legally prescribed period of time or a�ho has lived here 20 years but never
bothered to vote, they should not condemn that person and he/she should still
legally be entitled and encouraged to sign a petition if he/she fulfills the
qualificatians for being an "elector". Ne would like to suggest that the
Conmi�sion, at some future time, consider changing back the text in Section 4.06.
��0�1I � 1T IOPJS QY PETITIOt� ,fron "regi s tered voter" to "qual i fi ed el ector" or r�hatever
verba3e they use, meaning that anybody who is statutory qualified and is not
re�istered.
F1s. J�ckson stated ti�at when tiie Commission discussed this sone time ago, one of
ti�e t�i ngs tl�at i nfl uenced ther� to move the way they did ��as that the Ci ty Clerk
will :ompare ti�e signature on the petition to the voter registration card and
from :I�at they presumed the intention 4�as that the person signing was a rec�istered
voter, That Y�as going to be the test of the signature. So, she thought the
ci�ang �s tf�e Corruni ssi on then i ncorporated r�ere consi stent a�i th that. If they v�ent
back ind changed it, they would have to do sor�etiiing about the voter registration
card is evidence. Also, she did not see any prot�lem with what aloomington was
doing, because the article also said: "..if a City iiitends to exclude unregistered
voter; fron signing petitions, it should clearly state so" (►��hich the Charter
Cor,uni;sion would be doinc� in the Charter). It said the "elector" was the one who
has t ie ri�ht to vote, and tf�e Coru�ission's definition of "electorate" was "tl�e
whole t�ocly of eligible voters" and "eligible voters" are "resdients of the City
who a•e qualified to register to vote". So, they wer� being consistent there.
Tf�ere v�as no laa� defining "qualified elector" and they do not use that term, so
she �i J not see any problem there eitf�er.

�1r. T�euenfels stated he agreed with Mr. Stouffer. The point made in the article

VOTI,V ; AYE, KIIJDOM VOTING NAY, CHAIRPERSON JACKSOP� DECLAP.ED THE MOTION CARRIED
BY A �OTE OF 6-1.
�•1r. N��?son stated he would like to refer to Section 1.04. DEFINITIO�JS, re�arding
"elig ble voter", "registered voter", "voter", and "electorate". Ne remer�bered
the C��mmission the Cor,v�ission using these definitions as working definitions, but
at an� time did they have ti�e attorney review the definitions and render an opinion
as to tfiei r 1 egal i ty?
11r, ki�nt stated a lett�r was sent to �1r. Terpstra on Jan. 19, 1984, askin� for
sor�e �uidance on consistent legal terninology in the Charter,
P1r. Ht nt stated a response �•�as received from P1r, Terpstra on Feb. 8, 1984. in
wf�ich �1r. Terpstra stated it was his opinion that the terms "elector","eligible
voter�', ancl "qualified voter" were interchangeable; that those terms constituted
the 1< rges t or broaJes t base group of peopl e i n tfie corrmuni ty who have ti�e
statu�ory qualifications giving them the right to exercise the votinc� privilege
if thEy so choose; that the term "registered voter" encompassed a somewhat smaller
group of people who are eligible to vote and have further taken the step of
registerinc� to vote; that the term "voter" encompassed a somewhat smaller group
yet wlo are both eligible to vote and have registered to vote and have taken the
furtf�Er step of actually voting; that the term "regular voter" should not be used
and c�nnot be adequately defined since they do not knovr how often a person has to
voie to be a regular voter, t1r. Terpstra stated that although in Chapter 5,
Secticn 5.06, of the Charter, the terms "voter" and "elector" were used inter-
chanqEably, he felt that was bad draftsmanship and the term "voter" should have
be�n �sed consistently. Ne stated tlie choice of the appropriate terms in the
ChartEr should depend upon the intent of what was to be accomplished.
Mr. Hu�t stated that, in essence, he felt P1r. Terpstra approved the terr�s
suggested by the Commission.
�•1r. Ne 1 son stated he had a probl em YJ1 tIl the word "whol e" i n the defi rii ti on for
"elect�rate" ►vl�ich was "the whole body of eligible voters".
Mr. Hu�t stated that definition was taken from the Oxford Universal Dictionary.

It is our intention that the material selections reinforce our
mu�ual goals of creating a project of architectural signifi��nce.
Th:s will result in a distinquished office park environment which
c].�arly integrates all buil3ings, while allowing complementary
na�erials, tpxtures and colors. This will create interest and

La) e Pointe Corporate Center is a canFus of the �11GT1P.St. qua 1 i ty

and others determine the size o� a sic� d an traffic.

Kr. Robertson, �rtIInu�ity Developnent Dir or, stated this is a request for
3 variance to reduce the f ront yard s back f r� 35 to 9 feet to allaw
aonstruction of additianl living space Mr. Robertson stated the hardship
�as the house is too snall for the f ily and due to the odd lot shape, it
is difficult to acoomplish anythin without a variance.
�Sr. Roberton stated the petit' ner's house is the last house on Ashton
�efore the � treet curves to left onto Rice Creek w'ay. He stated the
�urb curves to the west and e right-of-way curves to the east causing the
:xi st ng house to be cl oser an th e r eq ui red 35 feet f ram th e f ront 1 ot 1 ir�
(approximately 11 feet) .
Kr. Robertson stated e neighboring property vwr�er to the south had sent a
letter irYiicating h had no objection to the variance request.
b�mcil�ran Fitz ick stated it seems to be an extrene request to rEduce
:he sett�ck fr 35 to 9 feet, but that seally isn't what is happening. He
�ated the ho e is setback 33 feet in the middle � the front of the house.
�e stated street in front curves off to the west and the property line
�rves off to the east and, therefore, it really is setback quite a ways
ilthough technically, the property lir�e is only nine feet. He stated the
�rp�se �st have been to keep the lot out fran the front o� the park.
�DT by Councilman Fitz�trick to grant the variance, VAR #86-01, to

7ransport� ion Distriet 5 offices regarding the improvement of I-694
tetween 35W and HighWay 100.
7he improvement of this segment oP I-694 is now scheduled to commenee in
7987 and is Lo be completed in November, 19 89. The f irst order of
consiruetion deals �ith the Widening of the Burlington Northern Railroad

I ivber Road, T. H. 47, Highway 6 5$nd ne�r abutments on Lhe Main Streat
tridge and a totally neW roadWay surPaee with barrier median and median
]ighting for the entire segment.
' he bikexay aeross the Mississippi River is noW planned to be placed at
�oadway elevation on the north side of the bridge and the bridge Will be
iidened to provide fowr lanes west-bound and Pive lanes east-bound. All
�iher bridges will provide the capaeity for four lanes in each direction.

On 1'ovember 19, 1984 a meeting was held with the cities and counties within
whi�.h the I-694 3rd Lane Addition Project (S.P. 0285-47, etc.) lies. At that
tim� Layout No. 15 was presented and resolution forms were supplied for council
act:on (optional).
Ple�se find enclosed two copies of Layout No. 16 and resolution forms. As of
Apr.l 7, 1986 Layout No. 16 is the current proposal. Note that although the
project now extends from TH 152 to I-35W, only the portion of the layout within
you• jurisdiction is enclosed. The most significant changes are as follows:
A) Computer generated base map and layout proposal based on aerial photog-
raphy/planimetric techniques.
B) Extension of the project westward to TH 152 along Eastbound I-94 to
provide an auxiliary lane to alleviate forecast Level of Service "F"
conditions in the TH 100 area.
C) "B" requires widening of three interstate bridges and replacement of the
Xerxes Ave. bridge over I-94.
CD) "B" requires an additional auxiliary lane Eastbound over the Mississippi
River. Note that this auxiliary lane is dropped at TH 47.
�� Addition of bike/ped. access across the Mississippi River (north side).
F) "E" requires one residential relocation within Brooklyn Center.
CG) Pavement investigation indicated that I-694 pavement from TH 252 to
I-35W should be replaced. The new roadway is proposed to have barrier
median with median lighting (urban section).

Bob Brown Dist. 5- Project Manager
Bob Brown briefly described project and provided two copies of L.0.16
and resolution forms for city. Several issues were discussed by city:
1) City wants a 20" watermain crossing under I-694 west of the
BNI bridge. Final design should coordinate and provide casing &
pipe with agreement with city. City budget indicates 1988 water-
main project. Stubs at each end already inplace.
2) Although Mn/DOT must yet coordinate with Anoka County, city found
no major problem with closing Main Street bridge to replace abut-
ments.
3) City wants red paving brick in raised island locations along
CSAH 1. Specifications from city or county. City will participate.
4) T.H. 65 pond sites as previously discussed with E. Gavlinski. City
wants BASFU. Mn/DOT can't maintain. City interested in nutrient
removal as effluent ends up in Moore Lake (city restoration proj-
ect). Wet ponds may suffice. City is focus of "6 cities watershed"
(permit[ing authority).
5) City advised that county is proposing bikeway along river north
of I-694. Bike trail touchdown should recognize this.
6) Layout 16 will go [o council in early June.
7) City generally happy with project.

P�s. Forrest stated all the members of the FCC were very h�ppy for this
opportunity to have a representative talk to the Commission. She
stated she would like to give the Commission members an update on
each of the individual active channels of the Consortium--Government
Access, Li6rary Access, Public Access Channel 12, and Sto�er/Channel 3--
and their goals and major achievements.
Government Access/Channel 13
Major achievement: Creating a video about its sister city, Fourmies,
France, which involved a lot of cooperation between the access
channels and organization on the City's part. Also, regular produc-
tion of a program called �ridley Forum.
Goals & projects: To continue regularly producing Fridley Forum.
Purchase and installation of some 1/2" editing equipment for use by
Channel 13 at City I�all and any other employees at City Hall
interested in creating programming in the City or for the channel.
(The VFW donated �13,750 to Channel 13 to purchase an editing system.
They have been authorized to spend about $7,000 more for a total of
$21,250 to buy a system which will include a character generator.)
To attain ne�v programs from outside sou�ces; update library programs;
l�orfc more with otFier departmen�s in City Hall that have expressed a
real interest.
Channel 12/ACCbJ Public Access
P�ajor achievement: Better relations with the cable company. They were
able to give the staff of the cable company a tour and expla9n some
of the faci7ities and the difference between local origination and
public access.
Several meetings with LO personnel to discuss cooperation between the
two which in the past has not always been the case.
A very successful telethon which raised more money this year than in
any other year. Received $2,000 in pledges.
Goals & projects: New round of classes which are continually given.
They are starting a new five week class this summer on television
production. They have a grant to hire a summer youth coordinator
vrho �•rill take youth to local sporting events to show them how to use
the equipment and tape events.
A mini�golf tournament as a fund raiser in July.
6dant to expand into the corr�nnunity more to work with commun?ty organi-
zations to let them know they can use Channel 12 to get their message
out, to tape meeiings, etc.
To continue access for 2Q0 individual members.
14B
CATV ADVISORY COM�IISSIOfJ P1EETING, P1AY 15, 1986 P�GE 3
Channel 3/Storer Cocal �rigination
r�ajor achievement: The improved quality of the productions. John Semeja,
Coordinator, attributes that to a change in personnel and more
experienced personnel in fieid production.
Goals � projects: To become self-sufficient. Channel 3 is undergoing
a change right now to become self-sufficient. They will sell adver-
tising to pay for the budget and personnel which is something not
done in the past.
To 6e able to provide the programming as they have in the past which
i,s unique from oti�er access channels because they have the ability
to do "live" muiti-camera shots out in the field for games/events.
Channel 10/Library Channel
P'lajor achievement: Completing four programs taped in the library--
presentations of children's programming. Improved transmission
qual i ty of thei r channel .
Goals & projects: To tape more children's programming this surr�ner at
the library and to continue to acquire programs from other libraries
across the nation. Ms, Forrest stated the library administration
is not real supportive of ca61e, and it is not a high priority, so
right now the Library Channel is just trying to maintain where they
are.
Ms. Forrest stated she would like to tell the Commission what the FCC
considers as their goals as a group:
1. As in the past, to continue to work together, share ideas,
personnel, equipment, programming, etc. Primary example:
Fridley Forum program
2. To get more feedbacl: from Corr�nission members, especially
during refranchising, and to give as much input as possib�e
to the Commiss9on members. They would like to have more of
an ongoing relationship with the Commission members. The
FCC members were very disappointed that none of the Commission
mem6ers or the Council mem6ers returned the Channel 13 survey.
Ms. Hughes thanked P1s. Forrest for an excellent report,
r1r. Kaspszak stated he would be interested if an ��dvertising budget had
been set up for Channel 3 for L0.
�1r, lJegemer stated they are talking and negotiating right now with
Group 4� to use their people as Group W already has an ad sales force
in place.
1 4 C
CATV �DVISORY COF1MISSIO�� P1EETI�IG, MAY 15i 198b PAGF 4
Mr. Kaspszak stated one thing that was lacking that they had up until
the Star & Tribune was a published weekTy scheduie of LO and access
programming. They almost have to tune into the channel to find out the
programming and that moves kind of fast. 1�Jas there any way there could
be a published schedule? There was a lot of good programming he was
missing because of it.
P1r. Kaspszak suc�gested one way of improving communications between the
FCC and the Cornmission was to have a member of the FCC at every
Commission meeting. He stated there was a public heat^ing on the sale
of the company at the City Council on June 2. That wou7d be a good
opportunity for the FCC to ask questions and make any comments. In
particular, he would like to see some questions asked of the new company
in reference to what their approach mighi be in terms of getting the
school systPm involved more.

6. �ISCUSSION ON SALE OF CABCE SYSTE�1 TO NORTEL. CABCE (C�UNTRYSIQE CABLE, INC.):
�'r. Kaspszak stated he would like to Gerald Kazma, President of Nortel
(able Corp., to give his impressions of tfie Storer system and his plans
for the system.
�r. Kazma stated as the Corrmissio� members kneu�, Storer was'in the=process
cf liquidating many of its systems, not only here, but throughout the country.
fecause of the amount of de6t the KKR people took on to pay the �2.5 billion
�or the company, tFiey had to sell out a great majority of the company to get
'hat money.
Pr. Kazma stated they approached Storer when they knew the system was for
�ale, they met with Mr. Wegemer, looked at the demographics, the employment
��ecord.in the community, and various other things one looks at in making any
nvestment. They were pleased with the results of their studies and then
�pproached their financial people, who in turn did many of the same studies
;nd were pleased with the dea1.
Ilr. Kazma stated they then approached Storer, submitted a bid which was
�ventually found acceptable, and they then entered into a contract. The
:tosing date is slated for July 1, and they will be at the June 2 City Council
ieeting in Fridley, at the St. Louis Park City Council meetin,q the same
�venfng, and the alaine City Council meeting on June 13. They are now in a
'ready to go" position as soon as they get the necessary regulatory approvals.
1r. Kazma stated that as far as plans, they look at the system as a whole--
�ot Bloomington, St. Louis Parl�,, and Fridley. They do plan to retain the
�uilding and corporate office in Fridley. They have asked Chris Wegemer to
�e on the Board of Directors of Nortel Cable, and he has accepted. He will
�ot only be the General P1anager, but a Director.
�1r. Kazma stated that at present the 6ills are.developed in California and
�nailed here. After a month or so, they will cancel that contract and wi11
install their own computer billing system in Fridley. They will continue
with the access studio that is here now and the access as it is now. They
might add one more person because of the new computer system.
Mr. Kazma stated they are looking at making the cable system become address-
ible aimost immediately. This was a business decision based on necessity
for controi. There was a lot of lost revenue, and they do not have the
controls through addressibility. In order to accomplish that, they will
probably have one head end in St. Louis Park--the super head end that wil7
deve�op the new channel package. That will microwave the package to Fridley
and Bloomington. Here in Frid]ey and Bloomington, the cor.munity access will
be inserted at the first trunk end. The LO an�l the library channel, the
government access, and everything done locally will be plugged in here. But
each of the three systems will have exactly the same channel numbers on the
same stations, so there will be a 1lttle more comformity with the other cable
operators in the wFio7e area.
1 4 E
CATV ADVISORY COP�1PIISSION P�IEETING, h1AY 15, 1986 PAGE 6
I1r. Kazma stated that was the immediate 6usiness plan for the next 7-9
iionths--to get the microwave system going and to get the addressible con-
�erters out to all the households.
9r. P�oravetz stated that regarding, for example, the public access channel
=or the three corr�nunities designated as Channel 73, a Bloanington resident
:an turn to Channel 13 and get the Blooroington access pr�gram, the same for
=ridley and St. Louis Park. However, are those three going to be interfaced
in any way where Fridley public access could perhaps be cablecast live in
3loomington or St. Louis Park, or vice versa? ,
1r. Kazma stated that when they do their study which is just getting under-
Nay, that is one of the points they are going to ask the engineering firm
to try to design something into the system so they do have that ability to
lnierchange the access channels.
�Ir. Stouffer asked Mr. Kazma to give the Commission members a little history
of himseif and his company.
P1r. Kazma stated he started in cable in 1968. He stated cable was his only
business. At one time, they btiilt systems, designed syster�s, sold studios,
set up studios, did training, and were a systems designer. 7hat led to a
franchise for themselves; then they accumulated franchises. They currently
have systems in South Texas in the Corpus Christi area and other areas south
of San Antonio with approximately 10,�00 subscribers down in that area. They
have systems in Illinois and Plichigan. They had major systems in the St. Louis
area which they sold a few years ago. It was a similar operation to that
in Frid7ey, Bloomington, and St, Louis Park.
P�r. Kazma stated that whenever peop7e saw the name "Amzak" or "Kazma" family
ownership, thai was he, his wife, his son and his daughter.
Mr. Moravetz asked the Commission members if they had any questions regarding
the Application for Transfer of Franchise from Nortel Cable Association.
P1r, Moravetz referred to page 11-12 of the Application - List of Current
Franchises, Locations, Contact People. He stated he had a list of 15
questions regarding the Kazma operation. A representative from St. Louis Park
would 6e askang t{�e questions of the former franchises, and he would be
asking tFie questions of the current franchises.
Mr. Kaspszak stated that on page 7 of the l�pplication, question 2, "Buy�-out
A�reement", it said "PJon-applicable". Did that mean there was no "buy-out"
agreement?
Mr. Kazma stated it was his interpretation it meant if they had any local
business investors. Since they do not have any local investors, he put in
"N/A". There was no buy-out if there were no investors.
P1r. Kaspszak stated that on the battom of page 19, it stated: "If any
portion of equity contribution is borrowed, strike collateral." He assumed
Mr, Kazma was offering the franchise as collateral.
1 4 F
CATV ADVISORY COMMISSIOPJ P1EETING, �1AY 15; � 1986 �� PA�F 7
Ilr. Kazma stated the equity portion was the limited partnership portion.
"h.is a�as noi applicable because neitFier mem6er of tfie partnership, Union
Ilutual Insurance Co. or himself, was 6orrowing money. He will have to put
�p his shares, the system, and every possi6le thing he has for collateral.
Ilr. Kaspszak stated that currently in Fridley, the company has been selective
n terms of wiring in certain areas. Was Mr. Kazma going to cover every
�treet and potentially every business and every resident so they could sub-
�cribe just by tapping into the pole?
11r. Wegemer stated it was the intent that the parameters of the current system
i�ould be rebuilt to push on capacity; however, there are some line extension
�reas in tfie current franchise that include some �n�+ustria7 parks which are
iot currently serviced and which he did not er�vision them serving.
��r. Kazma stated they normally do not service industrial parks, because there
��as no one there to take cable. It was a waste of money.
Pr. Kaspszak and Mr. Matz both had a question�under the "Assumptions", page
of 4, under first item "Average FCC Subscribers" showing 4� growth in 1987
�nd 1987 and 3� growth thereaftPr.
Pr. Kazma stated that in the three systems as a whole in the first year, they
<re looking at a large growth. The reason is there are literally thousands
cf P1DU's in Bloomington that are not wired which they will be addressinc�
�mmediately. So, they will see an imnediate growth in 1986-87. IJhen they
'ook at the "Assumptions", they are looking at the whole system. When they
�re looking at the actual numbers, they are looking just at Fridley.
Pr. Wegemer stated it was important to note that the 4� growth was for a two-
�ear period so it was $2 per year, and the 3% growth was 1� growth for
ihree years.

7. IISCUSSION OF REQfIEST �OR PROpOSAC �RFP) �OR A�RANCHISE RENEWAL:
�r. Ploravetz stated this RFP along with a cover letter would be mailed to
�11 interest groups, community organizations, churches, library, and school
cistrict. They wi17 generally advertise, but the City is not required to
�eek applications. He stated Mr. �1atz has recommended they proceed with the
iransfer procedure and follow a"lag along" process for the franchise renewal.
fe stated P1r. Kazma has indicated an interest in an early renewal. It seems
�o be in the best interests of all parties concerned that they do not wait
intil 1987 to refranchise.
Pr. Matz stated that on page 1, Requirements and Interests, Items 1- 6
�ere what were negotiated with the KKR people. As the Commissioners might
ieca7l, the City had some concerns regarding what monies would be available
�hen it came time to renew in F'rid7ey. So, tfiese items 1- 6 were the items
iegotiated and agreed to with the KKR people.
tr. Matz stated pages 1 and 2 set forth what was really minimum for the City.
ihe Commissioners might feel �here were additional items they think are
rinimums in terms of what they are proposing.
ts. Hughes stated that under Item 4, she would like to be sure it outlined
��our access channels--the three that are being used and the one for education.
'ince most of the systems usually have fewer access channels than that, they
�hould try to maintain four.
Ps. Hughes stated that problems with repair and response to complaints seerr�d
�o be the major thing people complained about with Storer, and that was an
�rea that was very important.
Ilr. P9oravetz stated he would like to have the City pinpoint a little more
�learly how many complaints the City received and the nature of them.
�r. Matz stated he and Mr. Moravetz had discussed what mechanism should be
ised for soliciting the proposal for renewal. He could not see the telephone
�urvey or questionnaire because they sometimes get the extreme on what peopie
��ant to see in a franchise renewal. Also, he did not think it was good public
!�olicy not to invite any public comment, so he and Mr. Moravetz had discussed
1 4 H
CATV ADVISORY COMMISSIO(V PIEETING; P�IAY 15, 1986 _ PAGF 9
�he possibility of sending a letter to institutions within the City soliciting
ti�ritten comments and perhaps having one public meeting whereby interested
�arties can come in arid respond.
Ps. Hughes stated they should send letters to the same groups they did for
�Fie last refranch_ising inviting corr�neni from the public and including the
fe�ublican and DFL parties, asking for input by July 15, 1986.
1he Commissioners agreed with Ms. Hughes suggestion to invite written input,
rather than having an informal public hearing before the Commission.
�r. Stouffer suggested that the letter specifically say this was in regard
io only the refranchising, and say the Commission was interested in comnents,
�articularly as they relate to access channels.
hr. P+loravetz stated if there was no objection, he would have this letter come
from the Commission listing the Commissioners' names.
1he Cor�nission members had no objection to this.

SU 3JECI': Change Orc�er #1 for Street Impravenent
Proj ect ST. 1986-1&2
We have �mpleteci installation of the 6-inch perforated drainage pipe along
81 �t Ave. fran Hickory St. to Main St. This line was designed to carry
wa :er fran the drainage lines that are now being installed on 81st Ave.
fr m Main St. to University Ave.
It naw appears that due to reoent soil correctiv e work in this area that
th� ground water is recovering fast.er and higher than originally
an:icipated and that the 6-inch line will not adeq uately drain the road
ri�ht-of-way. We propose to add an additional 8-inch line from Hickory St.
to Main St. to pravi�ie drainage of the high ground water in this area.
Plrase have the City Council consider C.O. #1 for $15,775.00 to H& S
As phalt, Inc. for addition of a 8-inch perforated drainage pipe from
Hi �kory St. to Main St.

fiti: Fridley City Council
FI:OM: David P. Newman, Assistant City Attorney �1'1�
Rl ; : Ralph Skinner
D;�TE: May 28, 1986
Pursuant to your request at the May 19, 1986 Council
M��eting, we have researched the issue raised by Mr.
Sl:inner's neighbors in which they alleqe that he is
v:.olating the Fridley Sign Ordinance.
It is my understanding that the neighbors are alleging
tl�at Mr. Skinner's signs are in violation of chapter 214.06
s��bd. B of the Fridley City Code in that the signs in
qi�estion are greater than six square feet in area; are
g:�eater than one in number; and are within ten feet of the
r��adway. In reviewing the code it appears that this section
p��rtains to real estate signs for developments of less than
t��n dwellings. However, in reviewing the signs located on
M:•. Skinner's property, it appears that only one sign is
tl�ere for the purpose of promoting the development and the
b:�lance of the signs voice Mr. Skinner's displeasure with
tl�e City of Fridley. Consequently, only the sign which
d.rectly promotes the potential real estate development is
c��vered under this section.
In reviewing the Fridley Sign Ordinance it is difficult
t�r find a description of a sign which accurately describes
tl�ose signs located on Mr. Skinner's property. The best
c��tegory would appear to be the regulations for political
s..gns. In reviewing the definition of a political sign it
i:; directed at signs that promote the candidacy of a par-
t,.cular candidate or address what the electorate is about
t�� vote on. Mr. Skinner's signs do not directly fall into
e..ther of these two categories since as of yet, he is
n�:ither a candidate for political office nor are the issues
r��ised on his signs an issue in any impending election.
S..nce the signs do portray Mr. Skinner's frustration with
tl�e City and address Mr. Skinner's view point on action
t��ken by the City Council, I would suspect that they are
m��st akin to political signs.
Several years ago the U.S. Supreme Court addressed the
q��estions of what steps a City can take in regulating poli-
t.cal signs, in United States v. 0'Brien, 391 U.S. 367, 377,

P�ge Two
88 S. Ct. 1673, 1679. The test developed by the Supreme
Ccurt was recently followed by the Minnesota Supreme Court
in a case involving the rights of the Hare Rrishna to
di�tribute literature at the State Fair. The test adopted
by the Court is three pronged:
1. Does the Ordinance further an important or substan-
tial governmental interest.
2. Is the governmental interest in adopting the ordi-
nance unrelated to this suppression of free
expression.
3. By the passage of the Ordinance is the incidental
restriction on free speech no greater than is essen-
tial.
If it is the intent of the City to address the remaining
sicns on Mr. Skinner's property, it would be the recommen-
dation of our office that the current sign ordinance be
amended. I would suggest that a new category of siqns be
created regulating signs of personal expression. This ordi-
nan�e could require the signs to be maintained in a safe
manner and that they do not contain any statements which are
lib�lous or obscene. However, beyond this I would not
rec�mmend any greater restrictions for this type siqn than for
political signs. I believe that a strong Due Process and
con;titutional agrument could be made if the City were to
pernit greater leeway for political signs than it would for
sigis of personal expression. The City could also require
thi> type of sign to be no greater than thirty-two square
fee: and for this type of sign to have the same set-back
req�iirement as imposed by political signs. I would have
ser..ous concerns if the City were to attempt to limit the
numl�er of signs, particularly if the ordinance w�re to limit
eacl property owner to only one such sign. I do believe
thoigh, that if the maximum number of such signs was kept at
three or four such a restriction would much more likely
wittstand a constitutional test.
We would
reqLired for
sigr. is also
loca tecl .
also not recommend that there be a license
such a sign providing that the author of this
the owner of the property upon which it is
nte believe that an ordinance of this nature would
with�tand a constitutional challenge. The first test would
be mst in that the Caty has an interest in making sure that
the �igns do not interfer with the flow of traffic nor that
they become so large that they are distracting or detract

fr�m the general neighborhood. The second test would also
ap;>ear to be met in that the ordinance is not suppressing
fr��e expression but simply is attempting to balance such a'
ri��ht against another proper City interest. Finally, it
wo��ld not appear that the restrictions on freedom of speech
ar�� greater than essential in that the property owner would
st:ll have ample opportunity to express his personal politi-
ca: opinions.
In summary it is our opinion that with the exception of
one sign, the signs do not fall within the categories
apFropriate for promoting real estate development. It
apFears that there is not any category of sign in the
current ordinance which directly addresses the type of sign
which Mr. Skinner has on his property. If it is the desire
of the City Council to regulate such a sign then it would be
our recommendation that an amendment to the Ordinance be
pre?ared in which this tyge of sign is defined and regula-
tiozs similar to those imposed for political signs be
ado �ted .
As I indicated to you at the Council Meeting, the City
has two alternatives if it wishes to attempt to enforce the
Sig► Ordinance as it applies to Mr. Skinner. The first
opt.on would be to bring criminal charges and to proceed
thr�+ugh the criminal courts. If Mr. Skinner was convicted
it ��annot be guaranteed that Mr. Skinner will still be
reqi.ired to remove the signs although it would be extremely
likely that the Judge would include such a provision in any
type of sentence. The other alternative is to bring a civil
abatement action. The recommended procedure would be for
the City to commence a declaratory judgment action against
Mr. Skinner seeking to have the courts declare that the
sigr.s are a violation of the City Ordinance and that the
Cit� has the authority to enter onto Mr. Skinner's property
for the removal of these signs. I would strongly recommend
the �ity not to attempt to remove these signs without first
having obtained such a judicial order since the City could
be eKposing itself to considerable potential damages.
C will be glad to assist the City and the City Council
in aiy way you wish in further pursuing any of the items
rais�d in this memorandum.
