allow a snowmobile dealership to locate in this building. She
stated the petitioner is now requesting a special use permit for
outdoor display and exterior storage.
Ms. Dacy stated the outdoor display entails locating four vehicles
on the southwest corner of the building. She stated the petitioner
proposes to extend the existing sidewalk towards Highway 65. She
stated these display vehicles would consist of snowmobiles,
personal watercraft, and all terrain vehicles. She stated the
vehicles would be displayed during business hours and stored inside
at the conclusion of business hours.
Ms. Dacy stated the outdoor storage includes an area immediately
to the rear of the building and another to the rear of the parking
lot. She stated the petitioner proposes to enclpse the storage
areas with an eight foot chain link fence with slats.
Ms. Dacy stated the Planning Cammission recommended approval o£ the
special use permit subject to six stipulations as found on Page 2R
of the Council's agenda.
Councilman Schneider asked if there was a sprinkler system at this

would be required as an additional stipulation.
Councilwoman Jorqenson asked if prospective buyers would be able

personal watercraft, and all terrain vehicles. Seconded by
Councilwoman Jorgenson.
Councilman Billings stated he would abstain from voting on this
motion as his son is employed by an assoaiate of Mr. Haines.
Councilman Billings stated at the Planning Commission meeting there
was discussion about barbed wire on top of the fence. He felt in
all fairness to the petitioner, it should be stated if barbed wire
is included for the fencing.
Ms. Dacy stated the Planning Commission felt the City could not
prevent the installation of the barbed wire and if the petitioner
wished it installed, they would have no objection.
Councilman Schneider questioned if the City Code allows the
installation of barbed wire.
Ms. Dacy stated she is not aware of any section of the code that
prohibits the use of barbed wire.
Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, stated there may be a section of the
code which refers to barbed wire fences, but he felt it would not
� apply in this case as the fence is eight foot high and not at
ground level, He felt the barbed wire would help to prevent theft.
Councilman Billings stated he wanted it clear to the petitioner
that if barbed wire was not prohibited in the code, he could
install it on the fence.

variances, one to reduce the front yard setback from 35 to 29 feet
and the other to reduce the side yard setback from l0 feet to 7
feet 10 inches to permit an addition onto the front of an existing
home. She stated staff has recommended denial of the variances as
other options have been identified for this addition.
Ms. Dacy stated the Appeals Commission, on a 3 to 1 vote,
recommended approval of the front yard variance request, and by a
unanimous vote approved the side yard variance. She stated there
were homeowners in the area who objected to the variance. Ms. Dacy
stated the encroachment into the side yard is already existing.
� MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to grant that portion of the
Variance, VAR #89-21, to reduce the side yard setback from a living
area from 10 feet to 7 feet 10 inahes. Seconded by Councilman
Billings. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared
the motion carried unanimously.
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated the problem is the home is small and
the variance is requested to add onto the living room area in order
to relieve overcrowding. He stated with this proposed addition,
the encroachment would be six feet into the front yard setback.
MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to grant that portion of the
Variance, VAR #89-21, to reduce the front yard setback from 35 feet
to 29 feet. Seconded by Councilman Billings. Upon a voice vote,
all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously.

A. PHILLIPS•
Ms. Dacy, Planning Coordinator, stated this is a request for a
variance to reduce the side yard setback on a corner lot from 17.5
� feet to 11.1 feet to allow the construction of an addition. She
stated the Appeals Commission noted the intent of the 17.5 foot
setback was to provide visual clearance and this variance would not
m i„/
Y� ;_
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MSETING OF OCTOBER 2. 1989 PAGE 6
� cause an encroachment that would go beyond the existing line of the
building wall or further encroach into the side corner yard
setback. She stated, therefore, the Appeals Commission recommended
approval, even though staff recommended denial.
MoTION by Councilman Schneider to concur with the recommendation
of the Appeals Commission and grant the Variance, VAR #89-22, to
reduce the side yard setback on a corner lot from 17.5 feet to 11.1
feet. Seconded by Councilwoman Jorgenson. Upon a voice vote, all
voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously.
C. CONSIDERATION OF A VARIANCE. VAR #89-23, TO REDUCE THE
SIDE YARD SETBACK FOR AN ACCESSORY BUILDING ON A CORNER
LOT FROM 3D FEET TO 20 FEET, TO ALLOW THE CONSTRUCTION
OF A SINGLE FAMILY HOME AND ATTACHED GARAGE ON LOT 15,
BLOCK 2, RIVERWOOD PARK, THE SAME BEING 7100 RIVERWOOD
DRIVE N.E., BY O. B. ZACHMANN:
Ms. Aacy, Planning Coordinator, stated this building site was the
subject of a variance request in 1986 when a larger home was
proposed for this lot than what the petitioner is now proposing.
She stated the variance approved in 1986 allowed a reduction in the
front and rear yard setbacks. Ms. Dacy stated the variance became
null and void since no action was taken in the one year time frame.
� Ms. Dacy stated this variance request is to reduce the side yard
setback for an accessory building on a oorner lot from 30 to 20
feet for the construction of a home and attached garage. She
stated adjacent property owners were concerned regarding the
elevations and grading of this property. She stated staff
investigated this issue and found there was about a four to five
foot difference in elevation between this lot and the lot to the
north. She stated two to four feet of fill will be placed on the
property so the change in elevation, at most, would be three feet
or even with the elevation of the property to the north.
Ms. Dacy stated the Appeals Commission recommended denial of this
variance due to the fact that there is adequate buildable area and
other design alternatives for construction of a home on this lot.
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated as he understands, one of the
objections to the variance was the property owner to the north did
not want to look at the back of the garage. He stated he also
understands that if the petitioner is forced to construct a
detached garage, he could not only build into the 30 foot setback,
but actually build the garage all the way to the west up to three
feet from his rear yard. He stated this would expose a great deal
more of the qaraqe to the neighbor to the north.
� Mayor Nee asked if the persons who objected to the variance were
aware it would be considered by the Council this evening.
(�i"�

FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETINC3 OF OCTOBER 2, 1989 PAGE 7
' Ms. Dacy stated the Appeals Commission stated this variance request
would be submitted to the Council on October 2, 1989.
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated he understands some of the neighbors
signed a petition indicatinq they were aware of the request and had
no objections, with the exception of one person who wanted to think
about it.
Mayor Nee asked what Mr. Schreifels meant when he stated at the
Appeals Commission meeting that "it would be the only house on the
block that would extend beyond the other houses." Ms. Dacy stated
she believed he was referring to the rear of the homes because the
front yard setback would be maintained.
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated this lot has a history of problems
with development. He stated the variances granted in 1986 were
more extensive than what is now being requested and this variance
seems reasonable.
MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to grant the Variance, VAR #89-
23, to reduce the side yard setback for an accessory building on
a corner lot from 3o feet to 20 feet. Seconded by Councilman
Schneider. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared
the motion carried unanimously.
, D. CONSIDERATION OF A VARIANCE. VAR #89-24. TO INCREASE

FEET TO 220 SOUARE FEET (2 PRICE SIGNS AT 110 SOUARE
FEET EACH1 ON LOT 1. BLOCK l, COMMERCE PARK, THE SAME
BEING 7600 UNIVERSITY AVENUE N.E., BY CONOCO, INC.:
Ms. Dacy, Planning Coordinator, stated this is a request to
increase the total square footage of signage from 80 square feet
to 220 square feet. She stated the Sign Ordinance allows
properties to have more than one freestanding pylon sign if it has
more than one street frontage, however, the total square feet must
not exceed 80. She stated the petitioner has adequate means to
advertise the business with an 8D square foot sign, as wall signage
is permitted as well.
Ms. Dacy stated Conoco is petitioninq for this variance as they are
refurbishing this site of the Jet Mart Station.
Ms. Dacy stated the Appeals Commission recommended denial of this
variance request. She stated staff has since received information
from Conoco that they wish to reduce their request to have one 110
square foot sign, rather than two signs of 110 square feet each.
She stated the petitioner is present this evening and may wish to
confirm this request.
� Ms. Connie Lutton, District Manager for Conoco, stated when they
originally submitted the variance request, they were under the
�
�
�
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF OCTOBER 2, 1989 PAGE 8
impression that 80 square feet per sign was allowed. She stated
she would like to change the variance request to have only one sign
at 110 square feet.
Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, asked if there was some particular
reason why they needed a 110 square foot sign.
Ms. Lutton stated it is a standard sign that Conoco uses throughout
the company.
Mr. Burns, City Manager, asked staff if they knew the range of
variances allowed in the past.
Ms. Dacy stated Viking Chevrolet had a sign up to 20o square feet.
She stated several other applications for siqn variances were
received from other gas station owners, with most of them being
denied.
Ms. Lutton stated Fina has a 196 square foot sign.
The Regional Manager stated a variance was received in 1985 to add
to their sign when they wished to advertise diesel fuel.
Ms. Dacy stated this variance is not reflected in the master list
of variances which dates back to 1981.
Councilman Billings stated he was prepared to concur with the
recommendation of the Appeals Commission to deny this variance
request for the two siqns totaling 220 square feet, however, he
would like the item tabled to the next meeting for staff to
research the size of the existing sign and check if a variance was
granted at this location in 1985.
MOTION by Councilman Billings to table this item until the next
regular meeting. Seconded by Councilman Fitzpatrick. Upon a voice
vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried
unanimously.
4. CONSIDERATION TO CLOSE PROJECT #629, CRIME PREVENTION, AND
RETURN UNUSED CDBG FUNDS TO ANOKA COUNTY:
Mr. Robertson, Community Development Director, stated the City
received $15,50o in CDBG £unds to conduct a security program £or
low and moderate income households by installation of security
locks. He stated a portion of the funds were to be used in the
actual implementation and a portion for administrative and
advertising costs. He stated there is a surplus in the
administrative and advertising fees of $1,023.73 and this should
be returned to Anoka County.

5. CONSIDERATION OF APPROVAL OF CONTRACT FOR TIRE RECYCLING DAY:
Ms. Dacy, Planning Coordinator, stated at the Council's request,
staff investigated the proposal for a tire recycling day. She
stated October 28, 1989 from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Community Park
is being suggested as the date for this tire recycling.
Ms. Dacy stated the City has received donations from the Fridley
VFW Post 363 and Fridley Lion's Club for tha hazardous household
waste cleanup and these organizations have been approached if the
donations could be used towards this tire recycling project. She
stated the Council authorized $10,000 towards the hazardous
household waste cleanup and if the VFW and Lion's Club cannot
contribute to this project, staff would like permission to use this
$10,000 allocated by the Council.
Ms. Dacy stated two phone quotes have been received for the
transfer and disposal of the tires and Maust Fiber Fuels of Savage,
Minnesota quoted the lowest price of $1,000 per trailer plus $12.50
an hour for a laborer to receive the tires. She stated a second
� trailer would cost an additional $1,000 and the estimated cost to
receive and transfer the tires is $2,090.
Ms. Dacy stated staf£ recommends limiting the number of tires per
Fridley household to six and requiring payment of $1.00 per tire
over six tires.
Ms. Dacy stated authorization is requested for the City Attorney
to draft an agreement with Maust Fiber Fuels to provide their
services during the tire recycling day. She stated staff has
submitted a draft of the flyer which will be mailed to Fridley
residents and would like to know if the Council wished any changes.
Mayor Nee stated this has been a project that Councilwoman
Jorgenson initiated and has done a lot of work in this area.
Councilwoman Jorgenson stated she felt it was important to get
these tires recycled and out of residents' back yards. She stated
it is hoped that identi£ication will be required of residents
dropping off their tires to make sure funds are used for City
residents.
MOTION by Councilwoman Jorgenson to direct staff to continue
working with VFW Post 363 and the Lion's Club to acquire the
necessary funds to proceed with this tire recycling project. If
� staff is not able to obtain funding for the entire amount, that
the Council's previous allocation of $10,000 for the household
hazardous waste cleanup be used. Further, staff is instructed to
