��v _� _
� Mr. Imbertson, (bmmtmity Develognent Director, stated the first change,
garage setbacks, was proposed h� the Appeals �munission due to an inccease
in requests for varian�s to allaa ea�nsion of existinq attached single car
garages to cbuble car cprages. He stated approval of this ordinance will
facilitate oompliance with the two car garage requirement by alleviating
some of the variance zequests for cprage expansion. He stated corner lots
cb mt apply to this diange because of the existing requiranent that garages
must be set back at least 25 feet fran the public ric�t of-way.
�tmcilwanan Jocgenson stated she received a�.lione call fran P7r. Peka, 5932
5th Street, who voiced ooncern about this orcb.nanoe. She stated she would
like to clarify this ordinanoe applies only to existing, attached single car
garages, and cbes not cover new o�nstruction.
Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated a phone call was received from
O�ttunissioner Y�orcliak regarding this same issue. He stated Mr. l�ka had
expressed his ooncern to Commissioner Koraiak that his neighbor could
construct a garage without g�ing through the varianoe prooess.
Councilman Schneider asked, in the worst scenario, what would be the
distanoe between two driveways. He stated the F�ka's concern was there was
g�ing to be a minimim distanoe 6etween two driveways and snow ranwal. may be
a ptoblen in the winter. Mr. lk�bertson stated in the worst situation, there
would be a minimim of eight feet.
� Mr. Flora, Public Works Director, stated this ordinance would apply strictly
to an e�sisting single car cprage and would allaa e�nsion to a cb uble car
garage imc�r oertain aonditions, He stated if someone wished to a�nstruct a
two car garage, oode requirenents must be met or a varianae granted.
Mr. Newman, Assistartt City Attorney, stated when a pro�rty aaner aunsttucts
a r�ew c�rage, there is some flexibility as to where the garage is located.
He stated in the case where you are ex�ndi.ng an ex�sting garage, there is
less flexibility. He stated fran a lec}�1 standpoir�t, he would prefer this
solution rather than grar�t.ing a varianoe when there is no objection and not
granting a variance when there is an objection.
Mrs. I�ka voiced her oonoern about s�ficierrt sXace between their property
and their r�eic�bor's, if expansion of the garage was allowed under this
orciinance,
Cbimcilman Schneider stated this ordinance would not apply as the Peka's
neighbor cbes not have an attached garage.
Mr. Qureshi stated the ordinance covers only existing single, attached
garages, however, this did not m�n a property aaner aauld not apply for a
varianoe. He stated such a request would be processed through the normal
varianoe procedure.
' Mr. Robertson stated the seaond proposed change aonoerns solid waste storage
wntainer enclosures. He stated the existing screening provision is
ambiguous as to the quality and consistency of solid waste storage a�ntainer

����y
1 screening in multi-family, mmmercial and industnal districts. He stated a
nunber of other cities' ordinances wete rEV ic�red and this grop�sad ordinance
addresses the conoerns of the City. He stated the ordinance would require
screening of mntainers in all new multi-family, oommerical and industrial
developnents where visible from any right-of-way and/or residential
district; re�uire screening on all sides for mmmercial generators of food
waste, and residential buildings of three or more units when a common
oollection area is used; and require screening of dumpsters at existing
commercial, industrial and multi-family dwelling development when
im�ovenents re�ui.ring a building permit are requested and when m dumpster
screening exists, and when the existinq dum�ster is visible fran residential
or public right of-way view. He stated the ordinance would not require
autanatic retra�ctive oompliance fran existing businesses and multi-f�nily
$aelling districts or oumpliance in zoning districts other than commercial,
industrial and multi-fanily.
Mayor Nee asked how this proposed ordinance differs from the present
ordinance. Mr. It�bertson stated this ordinance more clearly defines the
type of screemng required for solid waste storage oontainers.
Mr. Roberts�n stated the third proposed change addresses the climc parking
issue and the rieed to be more specific regarding off-street �rking for
health service industries in C-1, C-2 and CR-1 districts. He statea,
presently, clinics are classified the same as offices, even though their
� Ferking needs are very different. He stated the proposed change would
re�uire one off-sreet �.arking sFace for each 150 square feet of building
floor area, rather than one s�taoe for esch 250 s�uare feet of builcb.ng floor
ara3.
He stated the fourth �oposed change to the ordirian� addresses the �arking
ratio for churches, and is reoommended to aorresFond more cloyely with that
of other cities. He stated the ordinanoe references sections of the CR-1
district, which apply the building and site requirements to church
develognents. He stated the parking required is one o£f-street �rking
s�oe for every three fixed seats or for e✓ery five feet of pew length in
the main assembly hall. He stated additional �xrking may be required for
other church activities such as day care, classroom and recreational
activities.

ordi.nanoe upon first re3ding. Seconded kr� Councilman Goodspeed. Upon a

Lake Park and the3 each d�nated $300 to this Fariy. She stated sinoe Spring
Lake Park School District #16 falls within Fridley, Spring Lake Park, and
Blaine, thEy are also making this same request of Fridley. Ms. Carlson
stated the School District provides the building, use of the kitchen
facilities, and custodial servioes. She stated teachers also donate their
time. 5he stated she felt this would be a worthwhile donation to provide
for the yotmg people in the ootrnmmity to help than have a�fe and menorable
graduation Farty.
Mr. Hunt, Assistant to the City Manaqer, stated staff has provided
menorand�uns to the CoLmcil recprding this issue. He stated School District
No. 14 makes no request of any goverrunental agency for a donation. He
� stated School Distzict No. 13 in O�ltmbia Heic�ts has an ogimon fxom their
City Attorney that this i:n't an appropriate use of public fimc�. He stated
staff dic7 not feel this was an appropriate use of City funds, but the
relative worth of the eaent is not Y�eing questioned.

this was an illec�l use of City fimcls.
Mr. Ne,vman, Assistant City Attorney, stated there isn't a great n�mber of
court cases that fall in the realm of public purFose. He stated the
reasoning was �obably 6ecause it benefits a relatively small n�nnber of
�ople. Mr. Neaman stated he felt it is a"gray" area, but could argue
either way. He stated to take it to the e�ctreme, what would happen if a
reic�borhood group wanted to have a Faxty to keep everyone off the street.
He stated the arc�unent can be mad� it is a public purpose. P1r. Newman felt
if the City �imcil granted this request, thc� sa�uld have to reciprocate, �.f
requests were received fran other school di.stricts.

prooess, howEVer, the question which should prolx�bly be addressed is if it
makes sense to ap�ave the rbr�tion.

Farty. He stated the Council made a decision to process such requests
through the Commission and frcm his p�int of viea, to approve it would not
be a good idea.
Cbimcilman FYtzFatrick felt the question whether or mt they wish to honor

12. CONSIPERATION OF EXECUTING A HOLD HARMLESS AGREEMENT WITH THE FMC
�QRPORATION ON Tf3EIR SPORM 47P,TER SYSPEM AI�ID PAYMENT OF Si1�RM Fg1TER FEES:
Mr. E7ora, Public Works Ilirector, stated after oonsiderable r�egotiation with
FMC, the City has rec�eived a hold harmless agreement for the storm water
system within the EMC-Navy property and extending across the Anoka County
i�rk to the Mississippi River. He stated the agre�nent establishes total

has an agteenerit that FN,C will maintain it, he would xecommend the Council
authorize execution of this agreanertt.
' Mr. Flora stated EMC has requested the City waive the �st and present storm
water drairr�ge fees. He stated sinoe the fee was acbFted, FMC has not Txaid
ariy of those charges and are in arrears $13,416.42 and a current fee of

�. __.�u.i
� $3,853.53 which i5 c�Axe. He stated �IC's �osition was sinae it is a private
system, they should not be paying a storm water fee. He stated the
ordir�nae prwic�s that petitioners can sutmit their starm water plans to
the City and, when apprwed, reductions of the storm water fees could be
established, but not retraactively, Ms. Flora stated since this is a
Fxivate systen wnstructed lr� FMC, the Council could abate the existing
storm water fees or abate all future fees, and require collection of the
�ast fees, if they ao f�sire.
Co�mcilman Schneider asked if the hold harmless agreanent a�vers 100� of the
storm water and Mr. F7ora answered in the affixmative.
NDTION IX Cbimcilman FitzFstrick to ap�are and authorize execution of the
hold harmless agreanent with EMC O�rporation b� tl�e NHyor and City Manager.
Seoonded }x Co�mcilm�n Gooclspeed.
Cotmcilman FitzFatrick questiored wtr� this agreanent included the waiver o£
fees. Mr. Flora stated when the City acl�pked the storm water fee, the City
took res�vnsibility for the storm water west of the road. He stated based
on this, FMC was asked if the� taould take over the entire system since the
City didi't have any authority to enter their property. He stateci it took
several ye�rs to negotiate this hold harmless agre�nent and during this
time, the City was responszble for �operty outside the FMC property.
� (b�mcilman Schneider asked if the City had incurred any expenses chiring this
period. Mr. r'lora stated nothing material had developed.
Nbyor Nee asked if FMC built the systen to which Mr. Flora answered in the
affi�mative. He stated when EMC sold pro�rty to Anoka CoLmty west of East
River Road, the pipes in the system became public. He stated FMC dich�'t
accept total responsibility at that time and hasn't tmtil this agre�nent is
e�aecuted.
Me. Arlen Wittrock, reFxesenting FMC, stated the question recprcang the fees
is �rt of the total hold harmless agreement, He stated FMC has been
responsible for the systen in the Fast, responsible for it now, and in the
future. He stated their position is that the� are rnt responsible for any
fees in the �ast, Fxesent, or futtate.
Cb�mcilman Gooclspeed asked if the liability has always been FMC's. Mr.
Wittrock stated that was correct and the hold harmless agreement now
aclmowledc�s the fact in writing.
Cbtmcilman Gooc3speed stated it seems the City dich't occur any expendi.tures,
haaever, did the� shoulc�r liability and if so, the question is if some of
the fees should be aollected.
Mr. NEwman, Assistant City Attorney, stated if there had been a probl�n,
there oould have been liability, howe�er, this cfi.c�'t occur so m one re�lly
� had to faoe this question.
Mr. Wittrock stated the position EMC's attorneys would have taken was FMC
�
,
•� � ��� , .
and the Navy would have been held responsi.ble.
Mr. NEwman asked if there is some in7ury or c�mage that has occurred which
has not yet sutfaced, tmder the teLms of this agreanent and because FMC is
stating they have always been responsible, would FMC he liable. Mr.
Wittrock stated that is his tmderstanding. He stated in a letter addressed
to Mr, F7ora chted May 4, 1987, FMC states they are responsible for the
system and have always been responsihle, he felt it answers the past
1 iabil ity issue.
Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated with this understanding, he would

He stated sinoe the� have taken the action for the lot split, many other
issues have developed.
Mr. Haarstad statedwhen the� mwed into their building, he had approved
lanciscaping and �rlung and, as a result of trying to close the creek, he is
ra�uired to install additional landscaping and parking. He stated he is
very frustrated over the eritire ordeal and to him, it would be better off to
just elimirate the whole ic�a as it is getting very e�ensive to get the
creek closed. He stated he would comply with the stipulations, 6ut felt
the� should not be ra�mred to post a bond.
Mr. Jim Determan stated meeting all the requir�nents of the City and
Watershed District is aosting a lot of money. He stated one-third of the
useable land is being lost for Farking that prol�bly never will he neec�d.

r�uiranents, he is losing a6out $2,000 and when the Farking is installed,
� it will cost ara�thex $6,500.

additional farkinq in corrjimction with the lot split.
Mr. Neaman, Assistarit City Attorney, stateci it is possible, with agreenent
from the property aaner, to impose a restricted covenant on the north
�roel. He stated when there is a transfer of ownership, the additional
Farking would haae to be mnstxucted.
Q�tmcilman Schneider stated he dich't Imow if a bond should be r�utred, but
wanted to make sure when that north Faroel is c�veloped, there is sufficient
Farking.
N�yor Nee asked who would be in need of the additional �rking, Mr. Haarskad
or the �rson purcitasing the mrth g3rce1. Mr. Haarstad stated th�y ere
short of Fatking undex the existing code, but met these requirenents when
the building was construcked.

are requiced and the�* hase worked out 41. He felt the only xeal issue is
re3uirinq the bond
