GENERALLY LOCATED ON THE NORTH SIDE OF DOVER STREET WEST OF
BROAD AVENUE•
Mayor Nee removed these items, Special Use Permit Requests,
SP #94-03, #94-04, and #94-05 from the table.
Ms. Dacy, Community Development Director, stated that at the June
20 Council meeting, a number of issues were raised pertaining to
these three properties. She stated that one of the questions was
regarding the status and safety of the Coon Rapids dam. She stated
that she received a letter from Mr. Mel Sinn with the Department
of Natural Resources. He stated that there are major repairs
planned by the Suburban Hennepin Regional Park District, owners of
the dam, to enhance the potential for hydropower at this site. She
stated that Mr. Sinn said that the dam's foundation is in good
condition and stable.
Ms. Dacy stated that another issue was the height of the new homes
that would be constructed on these sites. She stated that after
conferring with the City Attorney's office, if the Council approves
the special use permits, it is recommended an additional stipula-
tion be added stating the building height shall not exceed 30 feet
measured from the existing elevation and complying with the defini-
tion of the height in the building code, Section 205.02.11. She
stated that the definition of building height is not measured from

the ground to tlie • pi�k. of� the roo�: Slie outliried the �typical
. definition � of building. height� from the bui}.d�irtg code. .
Ms. Dacy stated that the question on drainage was raised and how
it may impact other homes i� the area. She stated that Council
can adopt specific stipulations regarding drainage and use .this
plan to evaluate the building plans. She stated that if violations
occur that are directly related to the stipulations of the special
use permit, action could be filed against the property owner. She
stated that the Public Works Department has also identified a
potential project to replace an eight inch line in 79th Way with
a ten inch line when the street is upgraded.
Ms. Dacy stated that if the Council approves these special use
permits, it is recommended that the stipulation be added regarding
the height of the homes. She stated that the petitioner,
Mr. Hedlund, was present this evening to answer any questions.
Councilwoman Bolkcom asked if there was a plan now to upgrade the
sewer line.
Mr. Flora, Public Works Director, stated that there was no plan at
this time.
Councilman Billings asked if the petitioner was aware and has
agreed to the stipulations on the special use permits.
Mr. Hedlund, the petitioner, stated �hat he did not know how the
stipulation on the height of the homes would impact construction.
He stated that he has to fill the lots and to take four feet away
from the height may be a problem.
Councilman Billings felt that in the worse case scenario, a two-
story home probably could not be built on the lowest lot, and a
rambler would have to be constructed.
Mr. Hedlund stated that the problem is that a rambler would not be
practical given the setbacks and fill needed for the lots.
Councilman Billings asked how the lots compare with the existing
street grade.
Ms. Dacy stated that the Buffalo Street lot is below the street
grade, and the lots on Dover and Cheryl Streets are about the same.
Councilman Billings stated that he did not feel this stipulation
on the height was unusual, as it addresses concerns which were
raised. He felt that the character of the neighborhood should be
maintained, and this stipulation would also allow Mr. Hedlund to
develop his property and satisfy everyone's needs in a practical
manner.
FRIDLEY CITX COIINCIL MEETING OF JIILY 11, 1994 PAGE 7
Mr. H.edlund stated that he did not think there is a problem, � as
��, there. �re . a� variety� . o.f different � stXle� homes in all ..Fridley .
neighborhoods. He felt that 'it was unfair to him io place. restric- =
tions if he wants to build a certain type.of home on that lot.
Councilwoman Bolkcom stated that this is an unusual situation. She
stated that several neighbors in the area are very concerned about
the height of the home and other issues.
Mr. Hedlund stated that the fact that the lots are in the flood
plain should not affect the type of home that is constructed. He
stated that the physical construction of the homes would not be a
lot different than others in Fridley.
Councilwoman Bolkcom stated that the lot has to be raised because
of the locat�on in the flood plain. She felt that one of the
biggest concerns was that no one knows what type of home is going
to be built on these lots.
Mr. Hedlund stated that if the construction is good for him and the
owner, it would be good for the City. He would not create some-
thing that is a 1ot different from other homes.
Councilwoman Jorgenson felt that the added stipulation r.egarding
the height is a way to a_ssure some uniformity in that neighborhood.
She stated that if the owner wished to exceed the height require-
ment, there is the variance process. -
Mr. Hedlund felt that when someone is told they have to come up
with new plans and go to the Council for approval, they normally
do not proceed. He felt that it is an unfair request, as this four
feet could be important.
Councilwoman Schneider stated that there are restrictions on these
lots because they are located in the flood plain and because the
City wants to protect the neighborhood. He stated that if it was
a normal lot, these special use permit requests would not be
necessary.
Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, stated that what differentiates this
situation from others is that because of the flood plain
legislation, these lots have to be raised. He stated that if all
the lots on the street were being built up, there would not be a
problem. He stated that the preblem arises because some of the
lots on the street, which already have homes, have not been built
to this required elevation. Mr. Herrick stated that when fill is
added to these lots and then a two-story home is constructed, it
will appear higher than in a neighborhood where the lots have not
been raised. He stated that the City is obligated to approve a
special use permit as long as the use of the property does not
adversely affect the City or the neighborhood. He stated that the
question the Council has to answer is if allowing a 30 foot height
would have an adverse impact on the neighborhood or adjacent

propert.ies: �He stated that the Counci�l also ha.s the authority�to
impose . reasonab.le condit.ions . on the specia]. use�_ per.mits .-
Mr. Hedlund stated that he doubted if these conditions�were placed
on homes built in the last five or ten years. .
Councilman Billings stated that in the past where there is
construction in the flood plain, the Council actually has the
building plans and elevation drawings presented before a
determination is made on how it would impact the neighborhood.
Mr. Herrick suggested that Mr. Hedlund review split level house
plans to determine if there is a problem in constructing a
reasonable home on these lots.
Mr. Burns, City Manager, stated that if there is a 30 foot height
restriction, which included the four feet of fill, it would reduce
the height of the home to 26 feet. He felt that a typical split
entry home was within that parameter and probably would not be too
restrictive.
Mr. Hedlund stated that it may not be a problem, but he would not
want to agree to the stipulation and find out later it was a
mistake.
Councilwoman Bolkcom stated that this item could be tabled so that
Mr. Hedlund could research this issue.
Mr. Hedlund stated that he would review it, but he did not knok� if
he could come up with a plan.
MOTION by Councilwoman Bolkcom to table Special Use Permits,

4. RECEIVE AN ITEM FORM THE APPEALS COMMISSION MEETING OF JUNE 7
1994 (TABLED JUNE 20 1994)•
A. VARIANCE REOUEST VAR #94-06 BY MILLER FUNERAL HOME TO
INCREASE THE AMOUNT OF FREE-STANDING SIGNAGE FROM 80 S UARE
FEET TO 98 SQUARE FEET TO ALLOW THE CONSTRUCTION OF A FREE
STANDING SIGN GENERALLY LOCATED AT 6210 HIGHWAY 65 N.E.:
Mayor Nee removed this item from the table.
Ms. Dacy, Community Development Director, stated that this is a
request for a variance to increase the sign area of a free standing
sign from 80 square feet to 98 square feet. She stated that a new
80 square foot sign has been installed that faces Highway 65, and
the petitioner wishes to replace an existing sign on West Moore
Lake Drive.
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JULY 11, 1994 PAGE 9
� `�� I�is .� Da�cy stated that whe�� the � petition,er:�•ol��ained� a permit� fo'r� th� -

existi�rig 24 _ sq�a�e �foot sign q�i�West MOore �Lake. Dr�ive•.� Sh� stated
that, therefore, a variance was necessary to replace this sign.
Ms. Dacy stated that the Appeals Commission and City staff have
recommended denial of this variance based on the fact that it does
not meet the criteria for a variance. She stated that the Appeals
Commission was concerned about setting a precedent, and because the
petitioner could install other directional signs:
Mr. Scott Lexvold, representing Miller Funeral Home, stated that
at the Appeals Commission meeting, he presented several facts that
stress this was an undue hardship and that the variance was rea-
sonable. He stated that the Appeals Commission decided it was not
reasonable, and the staff report did not have a lot of facts, as
they felt the lot had good visibility from Highway 65. He stated
that the funeral home also has access from West Moore Lake Drive
and without the directional sign, there is no identification of
their property on West Moore Lake Drive. �
Mr. Lexvold stated that the use of this property is unique, as
there are not any other funeral homes in Fridley. He stated that
persons have had a problem in finding the funeral home and locating
parking. He stated that the sign code allows one sign per street
frontage. He stated that the 24 square foot sign was in need of
repair and they discovered .that they had a problem when they wanted
to replace it. He stated that he did not feel a smaller sign would
be any more obtrusive than what now exists.
Mr. Lexvold stated that the staff report refers to.visual pol�utiori
and does not address the safety of the coYnmunity. He felt that it
was important to have these signs to properly direct people and to
prevent problems at this intersection. He stated that the spirit
and the intent of the sign code was not to eliminate signs but to
avoid clutter. He stated that he did not feel the variance would
be against the spirit and the intent of the sign code.
Councilman Schneider stated that if the new sign on Highway 65 was
smaller, a variance would not be needed for this parking or direc-
tional sign. He asked if the person constructing the sign advised
them as to what size was allowed.
Mr. Lexvold stated that the person constructing their. 80 square
foot sign probably did not know they had the other sign.
Councilman Schneider asked if it would.be possible to reduce the
parking sign or the directional sign so that it meets the require-
ments of the code.
Councilwoman Bolkcom stated that she cannot understand why there
would be a problem with the parking, as it is immediately adjacent
to the funeral home.

Councilwoman Jorgenson asked if the sign on Highway 65 could be
placed closer to West Moore Lake Drive so that it is visible from
both streets.
Mr. Lexvold stated that in order to locate the sign closer to West
More Lake Drive, a large tree would have to be removed and land-
scaping redone.
Councilwoman Jorgenson asked Mr. Le�cvold if he know how much of
their traffic comes from West Moore Lake Drive.
Mr. Lexvo,ld stated that he did not have any statistics.
Councilman Schneider stated that there is a question whether a
variance is realiy needed. He asked Mr. Lexvold to try to come up
with a proposal that would meet the code requirements for a
directional sign. �

Councilwoman Jorgenson. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor
Nee declared the motion carried unanimously.

FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JULY 11, 1994 PAGE 11
Couneilman Billings�st�ted�that as a result of the�public.hearing
on this va�ation request;�adjacent property own+ers.were asked to
sign that they riad no objectio.�s. �He stated that the petit�ioner,
Mr. Lund, has been talking to the adjacent property owners, and it
appears there is a drainage pipe from the trailer court that runs
across his property and is not necessarily in the drainage ease-
ment. He stated it now appears that Mr. Lund will have to spend
$6, 000 to $10, 000 to replace that drainage pipe which he is not
sure should be there because it is not in the drainage easement.
Councilman Billings stated that the adjacent property owner to the
east, Mr. Buzick, stated that he was before the Council several
years ago regarding the storm water problems in the area. At that
time, the Council informed him they would have to review the
drainage on a larger scale, rather than just his property and the
property immediately adjacent.
Councilman Billings felt that because someone is developing a piece
of property, he should not necessarily have to provide adequate
drainage for the entire area. He stated that he would like to have
a drainage study completed to determine who is responsible for
drainage in this area.
Ms. Dacy, Community Development Director, stated that the existing
pipe that removes water from the mobile home park is now dis-
charging in the northeast corner of Mr. Lund's property. She
stated that Mr. Lund is obtaining an estimate to connect the
discharge pipe to the pond.
Ms. Dacy stated that Mr. Buzick owns property to the south and
east. She noted the problems that he is having and that runoff
from the Super America station was backing up to his system. She
stated that each property owner is responsible for maintaining
water on his property. She stated that Mr. Buzick and Mr. Determan
both installed drainage systems. She stated that Mr. Lund is
accepting water from adjacent properties and, if Mr. Lund develops
the land, owners wouid be responsible for maintaining water on
their property.
Councilman Billings stated that Mr. Determan previously had an open
ditch before the underground pipe was installed.
Ms. Dacy stated that installation of the underground pipe was part
of Mr. Determan's parking lot expansion.
Councilman Billings felt that it should be determined who is re-
sponsible for the storm water and what kind of plan exists to
handle the storm water. He stated that it appears something more
than natural drainage is taking place, and the issue should be.
addressed on who is responsible.
Mr. Flora, Public Works Director, stated that there are a number
of issues. He stated that the drainage system in this area was

will be established in Spring Lake Park during this improvement.
Mounds View has plans to deal with their water on Stinson
Boulevard. He stated that as those projects develop, there
probably will be reduced flow, but no major studies have been done
for this area.
Mr. Lund stated that he did not want to receive everyone else's
water, and that he has to install a pipe. He felt that this
drainage problem has to be addressed on a broader scope as new
development occurs.
Mr. Flora stated that he did not personally fee]. this project is
a problem. He stated that if there are problems, individual owners
deal with their own water.
Mr. Lund stated that he did not want to go to the expense of
installing the piping and then have to change it at some future
date.
Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, felt that perhaps Mr. Lund shoulcl
address this issue with the property owner to the north. He felt
that there should be some determination as to the history of this
water draining onto Mr. Lund's property. He stated that the usual
rule is that a property owner cannot discharge his water to another
property without approval of the owner or without having a valid
easement.
Councilman Schneider asked Mr. Lund how much piping he had to
install.
Mr. Lund stated that there is a twelve inch pipe in the northeast
corner of his property, and he would have to install about 100 feet
of twelve inch pipe and then connect the back storage lot with an
eighteen inch pipe for 200 feet to .the pond. He stated that this
is about 300 feet of piping that was not originally figured for
drainage.
UPON A VOICE VOTE TAKEN ON THE ABOVE MOTION FOR ADOPTION OF THIS
ORDINANCE, all voted aye, and Mayor Nee declared the motion carried
unanimously.

` CODE AND ADOPTING A NEW CHAPTER ENTITLED "RESIDENTIAL RENTAL
i: PRQPERTY.-MAINT.ENANCE AND LICENSING CODE:"
Ms. Dacy, Community Development Director, stated that since the
last meeting, staff has followed up on the concerns identified by
the Council.
Ms. Dacy stated that some definitions have been amended to be con-
sistent with the zoning code such as the definition for a one-
family dwelling. Definitions were added for a non-resident owner
and agent. She stated that Section 220.08 was revised regarding
the responsibilities of occupants and owners. She stated that it
is the responsibility of the occupant and owner to abide by the
provisions of Section 220.14 regarding tenant behavior. Ms. Dacy
stated that the ordinance was_.also amended in regard to snow and
ice removal for dwellings of two or more units. She stated that
the language was clarified on minimum electrical standards and the
Minnesota Energy Code standards were adopted for:temperatures of.
water coming out of a water heater. She stated that the City
Attorney's office suggested a minor change in the revocation
portion of the ordinance to provide the right of legal represen-
tation during the hearing process.
Councilman Schneider stated that he wished to compliment staff in
compiling this ordinance and in assessing the needs of the commun-
ity and the property owners. He stated that he would support this
ordinance, and he hoped it would have a positive impact on the
community.
Councilman Schneider stated that in regard to the fee structure,
he would not object to a moderate fee increase in the first year
and then go above what is suggested in the second and third years,
so that the final result of the increased fees would still remain
the same by the end of the third year.
Councilman Billings stated that the most extensive fee is $25.00
per unit a year, which is approximately $2.00 a unit per month.
Councilwoman Jorgenson stated that she felt comfortable with the
fee schedule, as she felt they were reasonable.
Both Mayor Nee and Councilwoman Bolkcom indicated .that they did not
have strong feelings one way or the other to adopt the fee schedule
as proposed or to phase it in over a period of time.

Councilman Schneider stated that at the time this item was before
the Council in the early morning hours of the last Council meeting,
he felt he made a mistake on his vote. Perhaps he would have
possibly voted differently if it was an earlier hour.
Councilman Schneider stated that in fairness to the residents in
the area, he felt action should not be taken this evening, but
, CounciT shoul,d consider the motion �or.reconsideration.of the item._
and then table this item to the next regular meeting. He felt that
this would give staff time to notiiy the interested parties.

JUNE 29, 1994: '
A. AUTHORIZE ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WORKSHEET FOR A PLAT
REQUEST. P.S. #94-05 BY KEITH EIBENSTEINER FOR BILTMORE
CONSTRUCTION OF NEW BRIGHTON INC. TO SUBDIVIDE PROPERTY INTO
NINE NEW SINGLE FAMTLY LOTS GENERALLY LOCATED IN THE
SOUTHEAST CORNER OF THE TOTINO-GRACE HIGH SCHOOL PROPERTY AT
1350 GARDENA AVENUE N.E.:
Ms. Dacy, Community Development Director, stated that this plat
request is for the Totino-Grace High School property. She stated
that the owner wishes to subdivide the southeast corner of that
site into seven single family lots and the southwest corner of the
property into two home sites.
Ms. Dacy stated that the Planning Commission voted three to two to
table this item, have Council consider ordering an Environ-mental
Assessment Worksheet (EAW), and have the plat go back to the
Planning Com�nission on completion of the EAW or the end of 120
days, whichever comes first. She stated that the reason for
requesting an EAW was because of a petition submitted by
neighboring property owners.
Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, stated that he has done some research
into the statute and rules that have been adopted by the State
Environmental Quality Board. He stated that there is a provision
in the rules that allows for a discretionary EAW, but it also
provides that the discretion does not apply if the property is
,exempt. He stated that the Environmental Quality Board has ruled
that this project is exempt. An examination of the rules clearly
indicates that a project of this size is exempt from the require-
ments. He stated that it is his opinion the.City does not have the
discretionary authority to order an EAW on this project. He stated
that the City cannot require the developer to go through the EAW
process.
Councilman Schneider stated that there were a number of environ-
mental concerns raised. He asked what the City could do to insure
that the environmental issues are addressed.
Mr. Herrick stated that he has not explored other alternatives, and
he is not prepared with an answer this evening. He stated that the
only question he has reviewed is the matter of the Environmental
Assessment Worksheet.
Councilman Schneider asked the City's obligations as far as this
plat.
Mr. Herrick stated that there are several Supreme Court cases that
indicate the City is obligated to approve a.plat if the developer
meets all the requirements of the ordinance. He stated that it
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETiNG OF JIILY 1�, 1994 PAGE.16
` would be his �feeYing� that the �City can apply reasonakile l�imitatioiis
or conditions on the plat approval, but he does not feel that the
City has the. authority to prevent the owner from developing the
property, as long as it is properly zoned and meets the require-
ments of the City's platting ordinance. He stated that staff has
recommended conditions that deal with many of the concerns of the
residents.
Councilman Schneider stated that aside from the EAW, he thought
there was a request to the Planning Commission to take this plat
through the City's Environmental Quality and Energy Commission and
Parks and Recreation Commission. He stated that if the City does
not want development on this site, the option would be to acquire
the property. He stated that all that is before the Council this
evening is the request for an EAW, and there is no recommendation
from the Planning Commission on the merits of the plat.
Councilman Billings stated that in 1986 or 1987, there was a glat
proposed north of the Islamic Center and east of 60th Avenue that
dead' ends near Oakwood. He stated that the area was similar in
nature to this proposed plat, and he wanted to know what was done
on that particular plat.
Councilman Billings also wanted to know the size of the North
Innsbruck Nature Center and how and when the City acquired it. He
stated that in the Planning Commission minutes, there is a lot of
reference to Peck's Woods. He stated that he would like to know
the original land area covered by Peck's Woods, and when Arthur
Street area was developed if it was part of the original Peck's
Woods. He questioned if there ever has been any considera-tion by
any prior City Councils to acquire all or any of Peck's Woods for
a park and the results of this discussion.
Councilman Billings stated that Council has set aside a certain
amount of open space in Fridley, and he would like to know the
number of acres in North Innsbruck Park, as well as Springbrook
Nature Center, and when they were dedicated to be open space.
Councilman Billings stated that in reading the Planning Commission
minutes, there are several references by residents who have testi-
fied to ferns and woodland plants unique to the Fridley area. He
questioned how unique these plants and vegetation were to the area
and if they are found only in this particular woods. He stated
that this would certainly have an impact on the decision that has
to be made. He stated that there is also reference to trees cut
down on the Wal-Mart site, and he would like a report as to whether
or not the developer observed the commitment to preserve the oak
trees on the Wal-Mart site.
Councilman Billings stated that in the Planning Commission minutes
there was reference to funds available fron a third party that
would be willing to purchase the property and give it to the City.

� � He •stated that:��i�f there� �is •an, agency that -�has $25�, 000 �and � that � �
agency wants to purchase the property and give it to the City, he
would like to know about it.
Councilman ScY�neider stated that he believed staff should research
this issue and the questions raised by Councilman Billings. He
questioned how the City rates compared to national or state stan-
dards for passive recreation areas and if we are inadequate or have
more than adequate areas. He stated that another question is what
kind of use is being made of North Innsbruck Park today, if the
City should acquire the property, and what the cost is for main-
taining it. He felt that the key issue is identifying if this
property is really unique.
Mr. John Haluska, 5660 Arthur Street, stated that he is involved
with the organization, Friends of Innsbruck Park, and he represents
the petitioners on the request for an EAW. He stated that they are
appreciative of the City's planning staff who has helped them
through this entire process. He stated that Michele McPherson has
been very cooperative, and he felt the Council should be aware of
the professionalism of the planning staff. He stated that the
request for an EAW did not come before the Council because of the
petition but because of the deliberations of the Planning
Commission. He stated that the petition was drafted to get this
issue before the Planning Commission and Council.
Mr. Haluska stated.that there certainly is not any requirement to
require anyone to conduct an Environmental Assessment Worksheet
(EAW). He stated that there are two agencies involved, the City
and the Rice Creek Watershed District, because there are two
wetlands on the property. He stated that both the City and the
Watershed District have the right to require an EAW of any
particular developer. He stated that he has been involved in that
process in other areas and just completed working with the legis-
lature on a similar request. He asked that the City Attorney check
with the Environmental Quality Board staff and clarify this issue.
Mr. Haluska stated that there may be some reason that a small
residential development is exempt, but he is not aware of it. He
stated that this is a large-scale project in terms of the
ecological issues. He stated that the Friends of Innsbruck Park
are fully supportive of an EAW and support the request of the
Planning Commission.
Mr. Haluska stated that he would like to suggest that this issue
also be submitted to the City's Environmental Quality and Energy
Commission and the Parks and Recreation Commission. He felt that
the information has to be brought before all relevant commissions.
He stated that this is not just an important site to the City
because of its ecological existence, but because it provides a
unique urban forest. He stated that he would support the Council
tabling this item and gathering all pertinent information.

- �. '�1�Ir. iier.rick a�ked Mr,: Haluska if he has read �.th� state �rul�s ori� an
Environmental Assessment Worksheet.
Mr. Haluska stated that he has read them several times and also
worked with several attorneys on it. He felt that it is clear that.
it is up to the local governmental unit to make its decision. He
stated that any governmental unit can do it. He stated that in
this case, it probably would ?ae the City or the Watershed District.
Mr. Herrick stated that his interpretation of the rules is
different. He stated that he did not mind checking with the
attorney for the Environmental Quality Board, but when he called
him last week he was not available.
Mr. Haluska stated that it seems apparent there is not any compre-
hensive plan in dealing with these situations. He felt that it
would be prudent for the Council to have an inventory of these
parcels.
Councilwoman Jorgenson asked if the wooded area around Moore Lake
is part of the same area.
Mr. Haluska stated that there is mixed oak in the area around Moore
Lake. He stated that there was a biological heritage series done
for the state. The people working on this series are available.
He stated that he has given their names to City staff.
Mayor Nee asked about the availability of funds.
Mr. Haluska stated that he felt the City should use the trust for
public land funds. He stated that they are a national organi-
zation, are well funded, and very interested in doing something in
a suburban setting. He stated that they acquire property that is
in jeopardy for public use. He stated that he is speaking in terms
of between $200,000 to $300,000. They are supportive of it and
want to meet with the City.
Mayor Nee stated that the reason programming is minimal at North
Innsbruck Park is that resources have been diverted to Springbrook
Nature Center.
Mr. Haluska stated that he understands and that was the reason for
suggesting the survey and ranking the projects.
Councilwoman Jorgenson stated that several years ago she requested
an increase in nature center activities at North Innsbruck Park,
but most have been cancelled due to lack of interest.
Mr. Kirk, Director of Recreation and Natural Resources, stated that
the City scheduled regular nature programs. At times no one or
only on� person would participate in these activities. He stated
that iF they received requests they would have organize the
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JULY 11, 1994 PAGE 19
activities, but the p�rticipation was not good. Therefore, it has
been several years since any activities have been scheduled.
Mr. Gordon Backlund, 5805 Arthur Street, stated that the front of
his property faces Arthur Street where this development is
proposed. He stated that at the Planning Commission meeting,
Mr. Fallon, who represents the Archdiocese, stated that they want
to use this property to fund their activities. He stated that it
seems their interest is financial. He stated that he would not
object to what is considered legitimate use of private property,
but he felt it would be in the City's best interests to take a look
at what that property could mean to the City. He felt that if the
property is to be developed, it should be done as unobtrusively as
possible, and the wooded areas should be protected as much as
possible. He stated that formal activities ceased when Springbrook
Nature Center was developed., but there continues to be informal
activities.
�r. Mike Black, Royal Oaks Realty, stated that the attorneys have
been in contact with the City's attorney. It is their opinion that
the EAW is exempt, but they are not opposed to addressing environ-
mental concerns. He stated that City staff did an excellent job
in addressing these concerns. He stated that the plat more than.
exceeds the platting requirements in regard to lot size, and they
would comply with all requirements for �and deve.lopment.
Mr. Black stated that staff submitted stipulations to the Planning
Commission, and they are in agreement with all these stipulations.
He stated that they have delineated the wetlands on the site, and
it is their intent not to impact any wetland. He felt that they
have taken a very careful approach in development of the site, but
some of trees would be impacted, as they would be constructing a
60 foot right-of-way for a cul-de-sac.
Mr. Black stated that their company currently has projects in
Woodbury, Cottage Grove, Eagan, Inver Grove Heights, and some of
the neighboring townships. He stated that they are a reputable
firm, and these will be very expensive lots and homes. He stated
that they do not object to looking at any local environmental
concerns and would be willing to work with staff on those issues.
He stated that this really is not a state issue as noted by the
Environmental Quality Board. He stated that if they can provide
additional information on the environmental impact, they would
cooperate with the City. He requested this to be done in a timely
manner so that they can proceed accordingly.
Mr. Black stated that there has been some discussion about the
possible purchase of the property, and they are certainly willing
to consider and entertain any offer that may come forward.

request by the Planning Commission for an Environmental Assessment

live on the west side and have it in front of their homes.

.)
The ..Cit�y. Council tabled acticzn.-at. ,the, July� ��, : 1994 .:meeting. to ..
. permit the petit�ioner� to research typical height� of �h�ot�ses� and �
to deterniine whether measuring the heiql�t of the building from
the street e�evat.ion would be.too.re.strictive. The�petitioner
did not submit building plans since he felt that a height
stipulation was too restrictive and constituted a taking.
Staff conducted its own analysis. Staff reviewed the house plans
. which have been .c,onstructed in other parts ..of the flood .plain �
area; specifically, the properties at 7919 Broad Avenue, 600 Ely
Street, and 7995 Riverview Terrace. If the 30 foot height is
measured from the existing street elevation, a typical split-
level house would be two to three feet taller than the maximum
height. The ridge line would have to be revised since current
house designs,have steeper roof slopes. We determined that a
two-story structure would also exceed the 30 foot height
requirement. A one-story rambler could be constructed in.
conformance with the maximum height.
Staff reviewed the definition of building height. The Zoning
Code states that the height is to be measured from the average
elevation at the "front of the building". In all of the subject
cases, the front of the building elevation is below the flood
protection elevation at 822 feet. Measuring the 30 foot height
requirement from that elevation would accommodate all typical
house designs on the property (see cross section view of Cheryl
Sireet property) and is consistent with past approvals.
Based on this additional research, staff recommends that an
additional stipulation be placed on each request specifying the
elevation at which to measure the height of the dwelling. In all
cases, the elevation is 822 feet.

. .
The height of the dwellings were of particular concern on the
Cheryl Street and Buffalo Street properties..� The att.ached cross
-section shows a.total di�tance of 72 feet between.the.proposed .
edge of the building pad on the vacant property and Mr. Nason's
house at 614 Cheryl Street. ��though the new home.will:be above .'
Nason's property, this distance provides adequate separation
I
between the buildings for sunlight. Because the Cheryl Street
lot is large, its size helps to minimize.the impact of the height
of the building. In the case of the Buffalo Street lot, the
finished elevation of the property will be slightly above the
elevation of Riverview Terrace and will slope down with the slope
of Buffalo Street. In botl� cas�s,� the 822 elevation is four to
five feet above the street elevation. If these lots were not in
the floodplain, a three to four foot elevation above the street
grade is typical. It should.be:.remembered that if any o.f.the
adj acent homes are destroyed ..and have to .rebiai�ld, al�l new.
construction must meet the same elevation requirements.
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the special use
permits with the stipulations recommended by the Planning
Commission, and add the following stipulation onto each special .
use permit request: "�
* The height of the building shall be measured from the
I elevation at the front of the building at 822 feet.

July 22, 1994�
William Burns, City Manager
Barbara Dacy, Community Development Director
SUBJECT: .. Consideration of Environmental Assessment
Worksheet for Grace High School Addition, by Keith
Eibensteiner for Biltmore Consiruction of New
Brighton, Inc.
�The City Council at the July 1�, 1994 meeting asked.staff to
research a number of� items�regarding the property.proposed to be
subdivided into seven single family lots in the southeast corner
of the Totino-Grace property. To follow are responses to each of
the items requested by the City Council.
1. The City Council wanted information on the Charles Cook
project and wanted to know why.it was not approved.
In 1986, Charles Cook submitted a preliminary plat request, P.S.
#86-06, Valley Oaks, to create seven lots on 3.25 acres just
north of the Islamic Center and south of the Moore Lake Hills
subdivision which contains Hillcrest Drive. The Planning
Commission on December 10, 1986 recommended approval to the City
Council with 11 stipulations. On January 5, 1987, the City
Council conducted a public hearing. At issue during the public
hearing was stipulation #2 which stated that the developer must
pay for all assessments for public improvements necessitated by
the plat. Storm water improvements were required to handle not
only the runoff from the subject development, but also runoff
from adjacent properties. The petitioner objected to the
requirement to pay for all of the potential assessments. The
City Council closed the public hearing the same evening. There
was no further action on the plat by the.City Council. Although
there is no letter in the file from the petitioner withdrawing
the application, it is assumed that the requested stipulation was
not agreeable to him and he did not pursue final action on the
plat. (See City Council minutes from 1987)

2. How large is North Innsbruck Nature Center and when was it
acquired? ' �
The City of Fridley Parks and Recreation guide states that the
park area is 24.0 acres. The parcel was dedicated as a park as
part of a 1971 agreement with Acres Inc., who requested R-3
zoning for the property. The City eventually received a deed in
1976 from Darrel Farr Corporation, developer of the Innsbruck
Townhomes.
3. Outline the original land area for Pecks Woods.
� " .!
Staff obtained a copy of a 1938 aerial from Anoka County. The `
aerial is not reproducible in an 8 1/2" x 11" format, but it will
be.presented at the City Council meeting. Based.on the 1938
aerial, there is-a large wooded area.which"extends from..Rice
Creek Road on the north to 49th Avenue and Highland Lake to the
south in Columbia Heights; into New Brighton on the east, and
approximately along the Matterhorn Drive aligriment on the west.
Staff estimates that the total acreage of this wooded area is 640
acres. Based on testimony from Mr. Haluska and other long-time
residents, this area seems to match what is known as Pecks Woods.
4. When was Arthur Street developed, and was it part of Pecks
Woods?
Arthur Street, adjacent to the Totino-Grace property, was
constructed in 1972. The street is within the area known as
Pecks Woods. The proposed Valley Oaks plat discussed above in #1
is also part of the wooded area identified in the 1938 aerial.
5. Was there any prior consideration of any or all of Pecks
Woods as a City park?
The Mayor reported that the City Council informally discussed
preserving Pecks Woods, north of I-694 in 1964. The size and
cost of acquiring the property was too prohibitive at the time.
A portion of the Islands of Peace park was acquired the same
year. As is explained later in this memo, the Innsbruck Nature
Center was dedicated in 1971, preserving 24 acres of the original
Pecks Woods.
6. How large is the Springbrook Nature Center?
The Parks and Recreation guide states that the Springbrook Nature
Center is 127 acres.

7. How did the City acquire Sprinqbrook Nature Center, and when
was it dedicated for open space?
The City acquired the land for the Nature Center in 1971. In
1974,, the City Council designated it as a Nature Center (see
"Nature Center History").
s. How unique is the property praposed to be platted in terms
of communities of ferns, woodland plants, flora, and fauna?
Staff retained Ron Peterson of Peterson Environmental Inc. to
address the environmental issues raised by this question.
Peterson's report is attached. No unique species of.plants or
animals was found.
9.. on the:WaT-Mart site, were:certain trees'marked ior.savinq, ,.
and did the developer fol.low-through in preserving those
trees?
Siah St. Clair and I worked extensively with the Wal-Mart.
contractors about preserving the oak trees on the property. The
stipulation as part of the plat approval was to preserve as many
large oak trees as possible. The grading plans submitted to the
City Council during plat consideration did indicate removal of
the vegetation on the site except for the wetland areas that w�re
proposed to be altered in conformance with the wetland alteration
permit approved by the Army Corps of Engineers and the Minnesota
Pollution Control Agency. Because of the extensive amount of
grading occurred, the ability to save a number of trees was
compromised; however, the existi.ng trees now on the Wa1-Mart site
were as a result of insistence by City staff to create
appropriate retaining walls and to minimize intrusion into the
drip-line areas of the oak trees. At the time of site grading,
it was not known that Slumberland was going to construct a
building on the vacant lot. Four trees were preserved on that
property, however, staff acknowledged that it may not be possible
to preserve all of these trees depending on the development plan
of this particular lot. Fortunately after working with
Slumberland, we were able to preserve three of the four trees.
10. Is money available from a third party orqanization? How
committed is the third-party organization to provide money
for the acquisition of the Totino-Grace property?
Included in the information for the City Cauncil is a copy of the
brochure entitled The Trust for Public Land. Michele McPherson
contacted the staff inember from The Trust on July 12, 1994. In
essence, The Trust purchases properties for preservation and then
transfers the praperty to a lang-term owner. The Trust is an

interim financing vehicle bnly. The staff inember frnm The Trust
states that no funds have be.en committed to the purchase of the
3.5 acres of the Totino-Grace property because they have.their...
own rev'iew process which takes approximately four weeks. Mic�iele
wa,s invited to,a.meeting initiated by Mr. Haluska..with The Trust
Staff person, Lisa Kugler; on July 26, 1994 at �:00 p.m. at Mr.
Haluska's home (see memo dated July 14, 1994 from Michele
McPhersonj. We will update the City Council regarding the
outcome of that meeting.
11. How much of the City�s park property is set aside for
passive recreation, and how does it compare.-with tt�e other
12 cities? �
Of the 490 acres of City par}ks, 340.3 acres can be considered as
"open space" , or areas where a s ignif icant : maj orit�r oi the pa�rk ..
is left in its natural state. The acreage i�cludes Springbrook��
Nature Center, Innsbruck Nat�re Center, West Moore�Lake Dunes,
Riverview Heights, and the two County operated but City owned
parks, LQCke Lake and Islands of Peace. Staff surveyed other
cities (see attached chart). The cities did not have a break-
dawn of passive, active, or open space acreage readily available.
Fridley ranks 6th out of the 11 cities in terms of the total area
of municipal parks versus total area in the City.
12. Where does the City of Fridley stand in relation to National
standards for open space reserved for passiqe recreation?
The Natural Recreation and Park Association does not have a
recommended standard for open space or "conservancy" parks (see
attached matrix from NRPA). Fridley exceeds the NRPA standards,
however, for the amount of park acreage. The standards require
180 - 310 acres and the City owns 490 acres.
13. How much is the Innsbruck Nature Center used?
Without conducting a detailed survey, it is difficult for staff
to quantify the activity at the park. No statistical information
has been found in the park files.
14. Haw much maintenance requirements would there be if the
Totino-Graae property is turned into a park or passive
recreation area?
John Flora prepared a memorandum dated July 19, 1994 which
estimates an annual cost to the Public Works Department for
maintaining the additional park area of approximately $1,800..

15.� Can the. City require an EAW? � -
.. Th.e . City. Attor.ney contacted th� attorney . for the Environmenta.l � .
Quality Board and has prepared another opinion which is included
�, for the Ci.ty.Council's review. The City.ca.nnot rec�uire an EAW.
Herrick believes that the plat stipulations are adequate to
address the environmental issues such as wetland and tree
preservation (Herrick has spoken with Mr. Haluska about his
opinion regarding the EAW).
RECOMMENDATION
It is clear, based on the advice of the City Attorney and the EQB
attorney, that an EAW cannot be required for this project.
: Unless the City Council chooses to acquire the subject property, ,
sta�� recommends that the.City Councii refer tl�e plat�to the:: :�
Planning .Commission for action at its August .10, 1994 meeting.

declared the motion carried unanimously and the public hearing began at 9:55
p. m
Mr. Robertson, CAmm�mity Develognent Director, stated this plat involves
3.25 acres of property located south of r'�oore Lake Hills and north of
Garciena Avenue. He stated the plat includes seven lots centered around a
proposed cul-de-sac. He stated the drainage plan did not provide an
overflaa pipe and there is no storm �ewer in the ar�. He �atec staff has
worked with Suburban Engineering and reached the conclusion that the
ZG QuES�-�a� �1
��L� 1 � ►• '� • :
� drainage plan was� adequate for the plat itsel,f, hawever., it-.did not .mitigate.
. � the ac�erse effects it�ooul�.�ventually have on. the surroimding� pr�per�ies.� .
Ee stated staff, �.�erefore, � has rea>nunende�d an overflow pipe be installed .•
f ran Hillcrest, west to Gardena Lane to the existing storm sewer systeqn.
Mr. Flora, Public Works Director, stated there is a law area on the� Gardena
School� Froperty whi�ch serves as a por�ding area an�7 this developne�t ealls
for another pond to be aonstructed to serve this plat that would drain into
`the existing pofid. Ae stated, :euen though this is where the w.ater has
alw��s c3rained it is prop�sed to install an overflaa pipe to o�nnect to the
existing stocro system. He stated this is to insure that any water that
drains into the low area would not flood the back yards ot the existing
hanes. He stated it has been proposed to the developer that the
�nstruction of the averflaa pipe be completed in oonjunction with this
develognent at an estimated oost of $33,000. He stated there was quite a
bit of tioulEVard and green area a8jaoerit to the road where the pipe v�uld �be
glaoed without tearing up the street.
� Q�uncilman Schneider asked if sta£f was sati sif ied that the . oveXflaa pi.pe
��. . woulch't have any adverse �affects� on exisiting properties, which Mr: Flora
answered in the affi�native. Mr. Flora stated the water drains to the . pond
and b� praviding an outlet, it would be able to flow out rather than. just
oullecting in the p�nding area.
Councilman Schneider stated he felt eventually there would be further
develo�merrt on the Gardena School property and they woul d be a oontr ibutor
to the d�ainage. He thought perhags there may be a sharing in the cost for
this piping.
Mr. R�bertson stated in addition to the drainage, another question raised
was ooncern about the wildlife habitat in this area. He stated staff
a�nducted an inspection of this property, along with Mr. St. Qair, the
r�turalist, Mr. Rnutsbn, De�artment of Natural Resouroes, and Connie Modig,
resident of the area. He stated Mr. Rnutson agreed there would be
deterioration of habitat with the developnent and discussed ways to mitic�te
the problan. He stated what was prop�sed was the wetland area, which is the
laaest �art of Lots 4 and 5, be used for a wilc�ife reserve of approximately
18,832 s3uare feet. He stated, in addition, the 20 foat i�uilding setback on
the north lot line of Lot 5, whidz the developer has agreed to would also
help preserve the slope and trees. He stated it would be neoessary to file
a c3eed restriction on Lots 4 and 5, if the Council is in aqreement to
preserve this wildlife habitat.
N'.r. Robert�on stated the Planning C.o�nission recommended approval of this
:plat with 11 stipulations which he outlined. He stated in regard to
:stipulation �S, this should include any necessary easements in order to
install the sanitary sewer lift station. _
(btmcilm�n Schneic�r asked Mr. Cbok, the petitio�r, if it was his intention
to la3ve the 20 foat setback in a natural state. �ir. Cbok stated he intends
to develop the site and sell the hanesites to �ntractors. He stated it is
in his best interests to preserve trees be�use they oantribute to the v�ue

of the lots. Mr. Cbok stated in recprd to the wildl ife and natural area,
there was ciiscussion about l�ving the west 75 to 100 feet of the site in a
natural state, He stated after viewing the site, he decided it wasn't a
yood plan as this is currently useci for a aumping site. He stated, in
addition, the surrocmding lots have all been cieared and in a cl.ean state.
He stated he is in agre�nent in leaving the wet low area in its current
state.
Ms. Connie Modig, 1330 iHillcrest Drive, stated staff and the Planning
Co�nission has tried to cooperate in preserving the ti�ildlife area. She
stated Mx. Robinson of the City staff or�ntacted her regarding leaving part
of Lot 5 as natural as possible. She stated she was advised it wasn't
reasonable to e�ect the owner of this lot to leave it in a natural state
when surrotmding lots are all mawed and landsc,�ped. She stated the idea was
to leave a�rtion of the lot in a natural state for wildlife habitat. She
stated she heard the comment that a lot of rubbish was found, but this
hasn't been her experience. She felt she would like to keep the lo�s of the
wilc�ife habitat to a minimun.
Mr. Mike Roith, 1314 Hillcrest Drive, asked if staff felt the averflow pipe
would handle the drainage fran the aeven lots. He was also concerned with
future c�ainage problens, if the Gardena School property c3evelops.
Mr. Flora stated any future glans for
that water cannot leave a site, after
quality than before developnent.
c3evelopnent in this area would r�uire
developnent, at a greater rate or less
(�uncil�r�an Schneider stated at the Planning Commission meeting there was
discussion b� Mr. Cook's engineers regarding the c�ainage and the proposal
was that the two p�nding areas were sufficient among thenselves without any
pipe. He stated the City's position was it was very borderl ine, but the
pipe should be required. He questioned if the pipe would be sufficient for
any future developnent on Gardena.
N�. F'lora stated the size of the pipe proposed is 12 inches which is quite
substantial to drain the water.
N`�r. i�ith stated his other conoern is the cost and who would gay for the
piping. He stated he woulc�h't be benefiting if more water comes onto his
1 ot.
Co�mcilman Schneider stated it is his view that none of the residents on
Hillcrest Drive should have to g�y for the piping. He stated the cost
should probahl.y be split between N�. Cbok and whoever would further Cevelop
the Gardena School property.
N�. Ztxn I�nning, 1315 Hillcrest Drive, stated if there are drainage problgns
in the future, who would bear the �st for any impravanents.
Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, stated this Co�mcil can't bind a future Council
as to what th�y mic�t decide. He stated there is a State statute which
provides that assessments for improv�ents can be made to benef iting

Subject: Totino..Grace A,ddition
� PEC Project No: 94-046 �
Dear Barbara:
As requested, Peterson Environmental Consulting Inc. (PEC) has completed its field review of the
natural resource features located within the southeast portion of the Totino Grac�e Addition in
Fridley, Minnesota, This portion of the proposed addition is 3.5 acres in size and is located in the
N1/2 oithe NW1/4 of the NE1/4, Sec. 24, T30N, R24W. The project site abuts Arthur Road to
the east, a residential area to the south and Totino Grace High School facilities to the north and
west. The overall objectives of our review were to determine: (1) the accuracy of the wetland
delineation performed on the site, (2) the diversity of native plant species present on the site, (3)
whether the species observed were indicative of a relatively undisturbed, remnant native plant
community, (3) the likelihood that threatened, endangered or special concem plant species might
be present on the site, (4) the overall wildlife habitat value of the project site and (S) the e�ctent to
which the project site is ecologicallX linked to Innsbruck Nature Center to the east. We are aware
that the City is considering an EAW thus our analysis was done at a level of detail sufficient for an
EAW. Our methodology and results are described below.
Methodoiogy
In reviewing the wetland delineation for the site, we utilized the Federal Manual for ldentifying
and Delineating Jurisdictional Wetlands (Interagency Task Force on Wetland Delineation
1989){hereafter referred to as the "1989 Federal Manual"). The use of this manual is mandated
by the Wetland Conservation Act of 1991 (WCA).
In order to evaluate the botanical character of the site, a floristic meander search of the entire
parcel was conducted on July 15, 1994 by PEC's botanist, Mr. Glenn Vande Water. This method

permits the reviewer to adequately sample botanical diversity within a given plant community by
progressively sampling the various micro-habitats within the community in a attempt to catalogue
a11 representative species that are present. Because sampling was done in mid-summer, we cauld
not fully survey plant species which flower in the fa11 or early spring; however, we do not feel
that any rare taxa would be encountered during these seasons based on the habitats present.
In order to assess the e�ctent to which the project site might be ecologically related to Innsbruck
Nature Center, a brief botanical field assessment of this area was also conducted.
Results
Wetland Delineation Review
Wetlands on the project site were field delineated by Ms. Pat Arlig of Arlig Environmental. PEC
and Fridley City staff field reviewed the delineation with Ms. Arlig on June 20, 1994. We found
that the delineation was accurate and consistent with the 1989 Federal Manual. Two wetlands
exist on the project site; (1) an approximately 1.20 acre permanently flooded palustrine
unconsolidated bottom wetland (PUBI� and (2) an approximately 0.66 acre intermittently
exposed unconsolidated bottom wetland (PUBG).
The flrst basin has retained a relatively high degree of ecological integrity given its urban
surroundings, though it does receive some stormwater discharge from the north and has a small
area of historic fill in its northeast corner. The second basin lies at the western edge of the site
and has been substantially degraded by periodic, drastic water level fluctuations which are the
result of direct stormwater discharges from impervious surfaces to the north. The wetland
boundary shown on the grading plan illustrates the extent of these fluctuations as the boundary
lies at an elevation between 938 and 940 while the water surface elevation we observed was
roughly 932 to 934. Water level fluctuations in this basin have been sufficient to stress or kill
mature oak trees lying along its margins.
We specifically reviewed a series of sma11 topographic depressions immediately south of the larger
of the two wetlands described above. None of these depressions constitute jurisdictional wetland
as defined in the 1989 Federal Manua1. All of these depressions were vegetated by upland plants
and no evidence of hydric soils or wetland hydrology was obsetved in any of these areas. The
two wetlands identified by Arlig Environmental are the only jurisdictional wetlands on the project
site. The grading plan for the project proposes no filling or stormwater ponding impacts to the
two wetlands that have been delineated on the site.

Floristic Survev
Qverstory Plants:
The project site is characterized by an overstory of bur oak (Quercus macrocarpa), northern pin
oak (Quercus ellipsoidalis), white oak (Quercus alba), box elder (Acer negundo), northern red
oak {Quercus rubra), black cherry (Prurzus serotina), eastern cottonwood (Populus deltoides),
and quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides); these species are listed in descending order of
abundance.
Understory Plants:
The above described overstory is underlain by an understory of sapling and pole-sized bur oak,
northern pin oak, white aak, black cherry, American elm (Ulmus americana), hackberry (Celtis
occidentalis) and American ash (Frazinus americana). This understory has been heavily invaded
by a dense shrub layer dominated by common buckthorn (Rhamrlus cathartica), gray dogwood
(Cornus racemosa), tartarian honeysuckle (Lonicera tartarica), American hazelnut (Corylus
ameriama), red-berried elder (Sambucus racemosa) gape-woodbine (Parthenocissus inserta),
and riverbank grape (Vitis riparia). Shrub species noted to a lesser e�ent include Missouri
gooseberry (Ribes missourierrse), Smooth sumac (Rhus glabra), staghorn sumac (Rhus typhirra),
and garden red current (Ribes sativum).
Groundcover Plants:
The principal herbaceous species observed on the project site include false Solomon's seal
(Smilacina racemosa), Canada mayflower (Maianthemum canadense), small flowered buttercup
(Ranunculus abortivus), avens (Geum canadetzse), stickseed (Hackellia virginiana), white
snakeroot (Eupatorium rugosum), Tick-trefoil (Desmodium glutinosum) lady fern (Athyrium
felix femina) and interrupted fern (Osmunda claytoniana). Herbaceous species characteristic of
the fringe of the open water wetland systems include reed-canary grass (Phularis arundinacea),
mild water-pepper (Polygorrum hydropiperoides), cut grass (Leersia oryzoides), manna grass
(Glyceria grandis), sedge (Carex iribuloides), sedge (Carex vesicaria), smartweed dodder
(Cuscuta polygonorum) and hooked crowfoot (Ram�ncudus recurvatus).
Ecological Integrity of Plant Community:
Although the canopy and several herbaceous plant species are representative of a dry or mesic oak
savanna, it appears that the relatively low basal area of canopy species has allowed the successful
encroachment of the exotic buckthorn and honeysuckle sl�rubs, subsequently reducing the overall
richness and abundance of native species within the site. Both buckthorn and honeysuckle are
Eurasian plants that are spread by birds which ingest and ultimately excrete their seeds. These
species have overtaken numerous woodlots throughout the Twin City metro area, effectively

crowding out native understory plants. Based on observations in numerous other areas around
the Twin Cities, the persistent nature of these species will cause an ongoing reduction in the
diversity of natiye herbaceous and understory plants. No state threatened, endangered or special
concern plant species were observed during this field review. Given the extent of the invasion of
exotic shrubs, this site appears to have little potential for harboring state threatened, endangered
or special concern plant species.
Innsbruck Nature Center has a species composition very similar to the.project site. The principal
difFerence appears to be that the overstary plants in Innsbruck Nature Center are represented by a
larger diameter class (i.e. more mature trees). The same exotic understory species that are
degrading the project site are also abundant within the park. Our analysis indicates that both
Innsbruck Nature Center and the project site are remnants of what once was a 640- acre forest
stand locally known as Peck's Woods. The combined areas of the park and the project site are
27.5 acres or 4 percent of the original stand: Residential development in this area has reduced
Peck's Woods to the two sma11 remnants :described above; these remnants are too small to
perpetuate the diversity of native plant species that undoubtedly once inhabited the stand.
While the project site and Innsbruck Nature Center are separated by an intervening roadway, they
are essentially remnant components of one ecological unit. However, due to the degraded nature
of their plant communities and the absence of rare plant species, it is our opinion that neither
component represents an sensitive or unique botanical resource worthy of extraordinary
protection by the City.
Wildlife
Only a sma11 amaunt of wildlife was observed during the field review, which may partially
attributed to the time of season and the relatively short field review period. Observations done in
mid-summer may miss songbird species that are most active during the spring breeding period.
Species observed during the field review include American robin (Turdus migratorius), common
grackle (Quiscalus quiscula), house wren (Troglodytes aedon), blue jay (Cyanactta crista),
American goldfinch (Carduelis tristis), black-capped chickadee (Parus atricapillus), white-
breasted nuthatch (Sita carolinensis), catbird (Dumetella carolinensis), common crow (Corvus
brachyrhynchos), northern cardinal (Cardinalis cardinalis), eastern chipmunk (Tamias striatus)
and fox squinel (Scirurus niger). All of these species are common in urban areas and none are
listed as state threatened, endangered, or special concern. The Minnesota DNR Heritage Program
data base for threatened, endangered or special concern plant or animal species indicates that the
only species recorded within one mile of the project site is the Blanding's turtle (Emydoidea
blandingri). This species was recorded approximately one mile from the project site in New
Brighton. The Blanding's turtle prefers calm shallow water that supports a variety of vegetation
and sandy uplands for nesting. It is our opinion that the proposed project site does not afford
optimal habitat for the Blanding's turtle due to the existing ponds limited size and lack of
vegetative structural diversity and the absence of sandy upland sites within and adjacent to the
ZS

site: Aquatic habitat wfiich appears more suitable for this species occurs within the Innsbruck
Nature Center; however, the site appears to be lacking suitable sandy upland nesting sites.
The project site probably supports a number of additional songbirds (e.g. wood warblers,
flycatchers), and mammals (e.g. microtines) that were not observed during the field review;
however the species diversity and density of such is likely to be low given the character of the
plant community described above. No amphibian or reptile species were observed during the field
review; however, a detailed survey for such species was not conducted.
Based on our observations, the project site appears ta support a number of common wiIdlife
species that readily adapt to an urbarr environment. We did not observe any unusual or rare
wildlife species or likely habitat for such species. Consequently, it is our opinion that the project
site represents a typical forest remnant that has been fragmented by long-term urban development.
Conclusions
A field review of this site revealed a number of vascular plant species representative of dry and
mesic oak savanna systems, �however, the encroachment of non-native shrubs species has created
habitat that is not suitable to support the densities that may be encountered within a more natural
oak ecosystem. Although this site does support a variety of wildlife it is at best only partially
representative of classic dry or mesic oak savanna systems. Innsbruck Nature Center has a
species composition similar to the east site with the exception of harboring a higher number of
larger diameter canopy species. We feel that this site has undergone e�ensive degradation due
to invasion of non native species and would not in it's current state be considered a unique natural
resource. Additionally the development of this site should not significantly alter the integrity of
the species composition that is represented within it and Innsbruck Nature Center.
We hope that the foregoing discussion is of assistance in the City's planning activities. Please let
us know if there are any questions on our analysis.

Phone.,Conversation with The Trust for Public Land
I spoke with Lisa iCugler of The Trust for Public Land on Tuesday,
July 12, 1994 regardi�g the Totino-Grace project.. The Trust for
Public Land�is an�interim property owrier�in which they purchase
properties for preservation and theri transfer it to a long-term
owner. Specific to the Totino-Grace property, no funds have been
committed to the purchase of the 3.5 acres in the southeast
corner of the property. They have their own review process which
is completed within approximately four weeks.
I will be meeting with Mr. Haluska and Ms. Kugler on July 26,
1994 at 1:00 p.m. at Mr. Haluska's residence (5660 Arthur
Street). The intent of the meeting is to walk the site and
examine it for potential purchase by The Trust for Public LaMd.
I intend only to be an observer at the meeting.

The Trust for Public Lanc� (TPL) helps to
provide public open space to people in
and around where they live: In 1990, TPL -
opened its Midwest Regional Office in
Minneapolis to serve communities in twelve
mid�vestern states. Over 700,000 acres around
the country have been protected for public
use since 1972 and over 75,000 acres in the
mid�i-est states.
TPL works in advarice of local, state and
federal acquisition programs, acting as a land.
bank to help secure approprtate lands for. :.
public.protection when they are available, �
We hold these lands temporarily until
furiding is available for permanent public
ownership and management. We buy land
outright, we purchase options to buy the land
in the future, or we design conservation
easements to keep land in private ownership
while protecting it as open space.
The ��aried communities in the Midwest, like`
the landscape in which they developed, have
been shaped by a wide range of cultural and
geographical events. The open spaces that
make these places unique are the lands that
TPL protects_ From wildlife habitat to trails
and riverfronts, forests, parks and even
historic buildings, our projecrs range in size
from thousands of acres to one city lot. TPL
believes that everyone should have access to
natural lands.
Every day in America, tweive square miles
of open space are lost. TPL believes that our
connection to the land is essential to our
qualit�- of life.

NRPA suggests that a park system; at a.minimum; be composed of a''core" s.ystem.of parklands, with
a total ofi 6.25 to 10.5 acres of developed open space per 1;000 population. The size and am�unt of

s�s requested I have dane additi.onal research regarding the
propased Plat a.t T�tino Grace High Schaol.
,; As I indicated earlier I am af th� opinion that an EAW cannot be
' required for this project. The State rules a�nd regulations
: implementing tY;e requirements for an EAW exclude this prvject
. because i� dve�• no� meet the minimum number of units required far
', a residential developntent. I have discussed this matter with A1,
,. Mitchell, Assistant Minnesata Attarney General, who advises the
EQB and he agxe:�s with my interpretation.
� I was also askE:d to look at c�ther requiremen�s, both Minne�ota
Statutes and rridley ordinanGes, �o see if there were other
, r�quir�men�s th.at might apply to this proposed project.

�.s. a c2etermination that would have t4 be made at the first .
ixistance by the City Council. There hav� be�n a number of
A�apellate Court cases interpretittg the Environmental Rights Law.
Tn the case o� Krmqotich v. Ca.�x,of Duluth, August 2�, 1991, the
�.p�ellate Gaur� interpr�ted the Environmental Rights Act. In
t���t case �he Court said:
"E�ch persan is entitled by right ta �he protection,
preservation and enhancement of �ir, water, land and
other na.tu�al resouraes.located within the State.��
��ie Cau�t in discussing the in��x`x��Iationship between the. State
St�tute and laca� ordinariaes stated;
"To some e�tent .the jurisdictian c�f the twts �r�rums
overlaps but neither �a�um exc].udes the o�her. Eaeh
act within its awn appropxi�te sphere and �here is na
conilict. Si.mply put, tor �he praperty owner to use.
its pr�perty it must be in contpliance with the loc�l
zoning ordinance and also be in complianca with th�
requirements of the Minne�ota Envi.ronmental Rights Act.
Conc�ivably, the�'e m�y be situations where a landowner
�eeking a specia3 use permit may be able ta meet the
criteria of one Forum but nat the ather but as stated
the landowner must pass mus�er in both forums."
°.��ie Appellate Court went an to quote the Minnesota Supreme Caurt
��rom its finding in th� case of �'�»esota Publia ln��rest
R�search Group v. White Bear Roc� & Gun Club, a 1977 decision. In
�.hat d�cision the Supreme Gourt stat�d:
"The Minnesota Environmental Rights Law does
not prescribe elaborate standards to guide
�ri�.l cour�s, but allows a case by case
detarminatian by use of a balancing t�st,
anal.oqous to the ane traditiona].ly employ�d
by courts of equity, whexe the utility of a
d�fendant's conduct which int�rferes with and
invades natural resources is weighed against
the qravity of thE harm resulting from such
an interferencc� or invasion. �t
'#'rie Appellate Court said this public interest balancing test
under the Environmental Rights Act may be divided into two parts.
�'irst, the trial court makes a determination whether natural
��saurces wiil be effected. If so, ihe trial court then must
balance the utility of the actions against the damage ta the
envirdnment.

5vhether �here is any signiFicant or substantial damage to th�
environm�nt and. whether that damage would outweigh the utility of
allowing single famil.y homes on the subject property is a
�uestion that the Council must determine after considerir�g a11 of
the fac�s and t.estimany before the Council.
I have reviewed the field review af the site conducted by
Peterson Envi.ranmental Consulting, Inc. 8ased on the
o3�serv�tions ar�d cariclusions of �2anald P. Peterson, it app�ars
that �his sz.te is noi unique in an ecological sense. It is alsa
Mr. Peterson's canclusion that.developm�nt af this site will not
signi�ican�ly �lter-the integrity of North InM'sbruck Park.��
If potential d�mage to th� envir�nment, on the subject praperty,
c�n be �liminat�d or mitigated by stipulations a��ached to the
plat app�aval, the Cauncil shaul.d a.�tach appropria�Ge conditions
to the glat ap�araval rather than deny �he proposed �a].at.
�n add�tion to qu�stions reqarding ather statu��s or ordinances
that might apply to the proposed plat, administratian also asked
m� the questiori whether th� Ci.ty cauld require the develaper to
pay for costs c�f ariy studies required under Sect�.an 12.11 of the
�'ridley ard.inarices. I am af the opi.nivn that i€ any studies were
necessary to d�termin� wbether there was potential envzranmental
dama.ge that i� would be approPriate to charge the developer under .
this Section of` aur Ordinances.
CdNCLUSION
Based on the ].eg�l research that � have done as well as the
�xaminatiotl of the staff repart and recomraendations, �he minutes
a.nd recammenda�ions of' the Planni3lg Cammission and the fi�ld
study by Peter�on Enviranmental Cansul�ting, Znc., it is �uy
CariG�usion:
1. That an EAW is not apprapriate in t%iis cas�;
2. B�sec� an the informatiQn tha� I have received regarding
this praject, I do na� believe that there is sufficient
damac�e ta natural resaurces that wouid invoke the
MinnEasota Environmental Rights Act;
3. Th�rE� does not appear to be any inPormation that would
indic�ate that the projec� will be.in violation of the
st�tc�'s statutes ar Fridley ordinance as they apply to
juxi:ydictional wetiands;
4. The j?roposed dev�lapment is au�harized by the city
zoning code and meets the requirements of �he city's
plat�ting ordinance; and
5. The ��onditions that the staff has placed on the plat
adequately address any environmenial concerns.

Friends of Innsbruck Park
5660 Arthur Street
Fridley, MN 55432
July 20, 1994
Dear Council Members and City Officials,
' ��,YL N � �f1'f��
Thank you for your serious consideration of the issues raised by the Friends of Innsbruck
Park concerning the proposed development of the Totino Grace property and its adverse
consequences to the overall environment and to the ecology of Innsbruck Park.
To reiterate our positions — as a responsible community we need to know what sort of
environmental asset this property represents to the city before any decision to develop
it is taken. We need to take a comprehensive look at the rest of the city to see just what
we have in developable properties that may present conflicts with environmental issues,
or opportunities to add to our parks and nature reserves. It is a question of options and
consequences and the fact that we do not yet fully understand either.
As for our request that the city council impose a requirement for an EAW, we
acknowledge that because the wetlands on the site are merely delineated. and have not
been classified as protected as we assumed they were, the city cannot require that an
EAW be done. It can, however, require as thorough an assessment of the environmental
and ecological situation and concerns the project raises as it wishes. We are confident
that such an evaluation of the property will indicate its intrinsic environmental and
ecological value. Even without such an evaluation, It remains clear that the proposed
development will involve wetland, terrain, and vegetative impairment and/or destruction
which is likely to materially adversely affect the environment, and that there certainly
are alternative site options for locating new housing within the city of Fridley which
represent less environmental cost. We stand by our position that the development should
not go forward and we repeat our request that the development be stopped.
You should be aware that regardless of the city's prerogatives under the state's EAW
legislation, the office of the Attorney General feels that the Environmental Rights Act
(Minnesota Statutes 1166) coul� be applied in this case. It is our understanding that the
city attorney is reviewing the statute and relevant case law. Our legal counsel has
advised us that civil legal remedies are available and applicable under this statute in
situations such as this.
As for the possibility of using resources other than city funds for securing the site for
public use, we have arranged a meeting and site inspection by the Trust for Public Land
and a member of the city's community development staff for Tuesday, July 26. At that
time we will ask that the Trust for Public Land work directly with the city staff on the
project if the city so wishes.

Variance Request, VAR #94-06, by Kim Miller of
Mi.11er�Funeral Hpme; 6210 Highway..65 N..E.
The Cit� Council tabled action on this�request at�the JuZy 11,
� 1994 meeting so t�at the petitioner could investYgate-an
alternative sized�sign.. The petitioner has s�zbmitted a plan-for
an eight squa�e foot sign-to be located along West Moore Lake
Drive. The proposed sign reads, "Funeral Home Parking". The
sign would be two feet tall and four feet wide, and would be
placed on a five foot tall pedestal. The variance request would
therefore be reduced from 98 square feet to 88 square feet; the
new sign on Highway 65 is 80 square feet and the proposed sign is
eight square feet. The eight square foot sign equals the
dimension af two, four square foot directional signs which are
permitted by the Sign Code.
The City Council has in the past placed stipulations for sign
variance approvals regarding procedures for routine maintenance
, or if the sign is replaced or remodeled (see Section 214.17.02.B
of the Sign Code).

From: William C. Hunt, Assistant to the City Manager ��
subject: First Readinq of Ordinance Amendinq Chapter 2 and
Section 4.04 of the Fridley City Charter
Date: July 21, 1994 � � . �
Followir�g the publ�ic hearing on.Chapter 2 and 5ection 4.04 0� the•
Frid�ey.: City. Charter on �July 11, 1994�, it ��is� �n orcler� to schedule.
the f'irst reading of the amending ordinance for the Council meetirig
of July 25, .1994. .
According to Minnesota Statutes 410.12, Subd. 7 the ordinance
"shall be adopted by the council by an affirmative vote�of all its
members after a public hearing upon two weeks' publication notice
containing the text of the proposed amendment and shall be approved
by the mayor and published as in the case of other ordinances."
There is no provision in the statute which would allow the Council
to alter the amendment proposed by the Charter Commission. It is
a straight up or down vote.
These amendments have been submitted to the Council on several
occasions in the past. The current proposal is the same as the
previous one with the exception that the present language in the
first sentence of Section 2.05.01 (new Section 2.06.01) has been
restored. The previously proposed amendment which would have made
"failure of any Councilmember to attend eight (8) consecutive
regular meetings of the Council" grounds for declaration of a
vacancy has been withdrawn.
Since the proposed amendments involve a considerable reorganization
of Chapter 2 I have summarized them below listing items by sections
in the proposed amended version. Some of these comments also
appear in bold type face interspersed in the body of the text.
2.01.01
2.01.04
Clarifies the source of the "Council-Manager" plan of
government.
Expands the ability of the Council to require production
of non-documentary evidence such as electronic data.

The previous section 2.06 was one long paragraph.. This
has been broken up into subseciior�s for greater : Clarity.
Corrects the�title of the Mayor pro tem and specifies
that the appointment�is only.for.the temporary absence.
or disability�o��the Mayor. � � .
Clarifies that the Ma�or's duty is not an on-going,
annual duty, but rather something done when necessary at
the direction of the Council. This avoids a potential
conflict with section 2.01.02 which prohibits the City
Council from attempting to perform administrative duties
other than through the City Manager.
Revised to allow the Mayor to take control in time of
emergency without first having to seek Council approval.
Deletes obsolete references to the original City Charter.
Changes for clarity which do not affect the substance of
the section being amended.
2.04.04 Changes made to accommodate the very complicated and
frequently changing state legislation and case law
regarding redistricting of wards and precincts.
Eliminates the penalty against the Council for failure
to redistrict in a timely fashion after the decennial
census.
2.05
2.06.01
Clarifies the disqualifications of Councilmembers from
being employed by the City in other capacities.
Provides a time frame of thirty days from the event in
question for the declaration of a vacancy.
2.06.02 Provides for a special election to fill a vacancy
declared to occur in approximately the first three and.
a haif years of a four year term of office, that is

question are closed. Changes the window from 45 to 60
days to 30 to 65 days. The current state requirement of
having absentee ballots available one month before the
election, the requirements of notice, and the amendment
requiring at least eight consecutive working days for
filing for office might make it difficult or impossible
to hold a Tuesday election within 60 days.
2.06.03 Allows for a primary election prior to a special election
to fill a vacancy if more than two candidates file.
2.06.04 Requires the Council to appoint a non-candidate if��the
vacancy occurs after filings are closed but before
October 1 of the fourth year of the term.
2.06.05 Provides for the winner of the general election to assume
office immediately�if the vacancy occurs on or after
October 1 of the fourth year of the term.
2.06.06 Provides for the Councilmember-at-Large to serve as Mayor
during a vacancy in that office.
2.06.07 & Provides for restoration of the Council in case the

l. LOT SPLIT REQUEST, L.S. #94-02, BY MURPHY WAREHOUSE COMPANY:
To split property into two separate parcels generally
located at 48th Avenue and Main Street. The legal
descriptions for the two lots are as follows:
� Parcel A: The south 1025.22 feet of Lot 2, Auditor's
Subdivision No. 79, as measured at a right angle to and
parallel with the south Iine of said Lot 2 and which
lies easterly of a line parallel with and distant
511.00 feet easterly o�, as measured at a right angle
to and parallel with the Burlington Northern RaiZroad
Company (formerly Northern Pacific Railway Company)
main track centerline, except the east 33.00 feet of
said Lot 2.
Parcel B: That part of Lot 2, Auditor's Subdivision
No. 79, which lies north of the south 1025.22 feet of
said Lot 2, as measured at a right angle to and
parallel with the south line of said Lot 2 and which
lies easterly of a line parallel with and distant
511.00 feet easterly of, as measured at a right angle
to and parallel with the Burlington Northern Railroad
Company (formerly Northern Pacific Railway Company)

PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING,_�ULY 13, 1994 ' PAGE 2
main track�centerline, except the east 33.00 feet�of ."
said Lot 2.
Ms. McPherson stated the petitioner for the request is Murphy
Warehouse Company. Burlington Northern Railroad (BNR) is the
owner. The petitioner is represented by Opus Corporation. The
lot split request is fo.r the property generally located b�tween
47th and 49th Avenues and between Main Street and the BNR yards.
The property is vacant and is zoned M-2, Heavy Industrial. The
property to the east is all single family residential.
Ms. McPherson stated the total parcel measures 19.72 acres. The
petitioner is proposed to purchase 15.5 acres with the intent to
construct a 265,OOO.square foot warehouse. The lot split as
proposed would create two �arcels. One is the 15.5 acre parcel
to the south, and the remnant piece.is 4.2 acres. The lot widths
are 1318.93 and 29�.7 feet resgectively. Both �ots exceed the
minimum lat area requirement of I:5 acres and the minimum
requirement of 150 feet. Th.ere is an active Amoco fuel line
along the southerly:property line and there is an MWCC sanitary
sewer intercepto� along the west property line.
Ms. McPherson stated Anoka County has reviewed the proposed plans
as the property abuts Main Street which is a County ro.ad. Anoka
County has requested a 67-foot drainage and utility easement be
dedicated along the west right-of-way line or east property line
of the subject parcel to be used for stormwater ponding purposes
in conjunction with the reconstruction of Main Street.
Ms. McPherson stated the petitioner is intending to construct a
265,000 square foot warehouse on the property. The building
measures 602 feet by 442 feet and will be 33 feet tall. It is to
be constructed of precast concrete panels. There will be a
railroad spur line along the west wall of the build.ing. There
will be loading docks on both the north and south sides of the
building. There will also be entry drives on the north and south
ends of the building. The spur line, as proposed, crosses the
4.22 acre parcel to the north. An access easement should be
recorded over the spur line to allow access to the Murphy
property.
Ms. McPherson stated approximately 30 trucks per day are
anticipated by the petitioner. Hours of operation are to be from
6:3o a.m. to 4:3o p.m. with a possibility of a second shift.
There are a total of 28 docks, 14 on each the north and south
sides. As proposed, the building meets the minimum distance
requirements for setbacks and lot coverage of the M-2 district,
including the 100 foot setback from the easterly property line
which is across from the R-1 district.
5A
PLANI�TING COMMISSION MEETING.'JIILY I3, 1994 � PAGE 3
� Ms. McPherson stated.the.petitioner requires or�ly 33 �parking �
spaces for the employees proposed to be at the warehouse. The
plan provides an additional 106 spaces as proof of parking. The
building is designed to be sub-divided in the future into smaller
spaces should the petitioner choose to relocate to another
faci].ity. The petitioner did provide two re-use scenarios to
a11ow for increase�d manufacturing and warehouse space and office
space and estimated the possible number of parking on the site.
Ms. McPherson stated, in terms of drainage, stormwater drainage
currently flows from northeast to southwest toward the BNR yards.
The grading p.lan submitted by the petitioner reverses this flow
from the northwest to the southeast discharging the water into
the upgraded storm sewer system in Main Street. The petitioner
will be allowed to release storm water either�at the predeveloped
flow rate or 5 cubic feet per second, whichever is less. Anoka
County is installing a stormwater pipe because the existing
system is not adequate to handle the existing flows along main
street. Should the plan proposed by Anoka County fail to be
realized, there two options for the petitioner to discharge the
stormwater to the west:
l. Stormwater would be piped to the existing BNR stormwater
system located within the railyard.
2. The petitioner would install a new pipe along the west
property line south to a municipal interceptar which then
flows west to the Mississippi River.
Ms. McPherson stated the parcel to riorth will also be allowed to
discharge water into Main Street at 5 cubic.feet per second or at
the predeveloped rate, whichever is less. The petitioner
submitted the calculations with the proposed grading and drainage
plan. Scott Erickson has put together a two-page letter to Ogus
Corporation outlining 14 items which are required as part of his
review of the grading and drainage plan. The stipulation should
be added to the recommendation that the petitioner is.to comply
with the items in this letter dated July 13, 1994. `
Ms. McPherson stated the park dedication fee is required at the
commercial rate of $.023 cents per square foot. The petitioner
also submitted a landscape plan. The petitioner proposes to
place the majority of the landscape materials along Main Street
to buffer th� residential property to the east and also to break
up the mass of the buildinq. The ordinance requires 265 trees
{265,000 square feet divided by 1,000). The petitioner at this
time is proposing to plant 165 trees so, therefore, they ar� 100
trees short. The petitioner could increase the size oF the trees
provided which would reduce the number of trees required by 25%.
In that instance, only an additional 35 trees would then be

�. . �requi.red;. Staff has� �tipit�ated •that the' petitioner i� to r�vise �
the�plan to either comply with the landscape ordinance or apply
for a variance for relief from the landscape requirements.
Ms. McPherson stated staff recommends approval of the request by
the Planning Commission to the City Council with the following
stipulatians: .
1. The petitioner shall dedicate a 67-foot drainage and
utility easement along the east property line.
2. An access easement shall be recorded over the spur line
on the vacant parcel.
3. The owner shall notify the Commuriity Development
Department if use of the building changes from a
warehouse to.a manufacturing facility causing.the need
for additionaT parking.
4. The petitioner shall pay a park dedication fee of
$15,529.14 at the time of building permit issuance.
5. The petitioner shall submit a revised plan in
compliance with the landscape ordinance requirements
prior to issuance of a building permit.
6. The petitioner shall comply with the items in Mr.
Erickson's letter dated July 13, 1994.
Mr. Newman asked which parcel would be Parcel B.
Ms. McPherson stated Parcel B would be the 4.22 acre parcel that
is the remnant as a result of the lot split. This�is the parcel
to the north.
Mr. Newman asked if these parcels would be separate.
Ms. McPherson stated she thought this was BNR's intent.
Mr. Sielaff asked, if deliveries and products are going to be
leaving by rail, what is the need for the trucks.
Ms. Dacy stated there is a variety of clients in the building.
Some will be receiving and/or shipping by truck. Not all
material will be using rails.
Mr. Kondrick referred to the letter from Scott Erickson and asked
if the representatives for the petitioner from Opus had also
received a copy of this letter.
5C
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, JULY 13, 1994 PAGE 5
Ms. McPherson.stated they �ad received a copy this'evening�:.
Staff just received the letter in late afternoon. The points
outlined in the letter are points which have been previously
discussed with the petitioner.
Ms. Foster, Director of Real Estate for Opus Corporation, stated
she and Mr. Wacholz, Project Manager for the Construction
Division of Opus Corporation, have been working with Murphy on
this project. She has been working with them on the land
acquisition and land•planning for the site. They are in general
agreement with the staff report with the exception of the
landscape requirement. With respect to that requirement, she
provided background on how they approached the City's landscaping
ordinance. As they understand it, there are two alternative
computations that can be used within the landscape ordinance -
one according to the perimeter of the site and the other, and the
greater requirement, is according to the square footage of the
building. By using the perimeter calculation, they would be
required to provide 68 trees. In looking at the magnitude of the
site and •project and the importance of the Main Street.frontage,
it was pretty apparent that this would not be adequate
landscaping for the site. On this particular site, they are
dealing with a very large building, a large amount of paved.area,
a rail track along the west property line where clearly
landscaping would serve no benefit. In addition, they also have
to incorporate a large ponding area on the site in order retain
water before it goes into the County system. The alternative
requirement of 265 trees they felt was not a reasonable
requirement. They asked their landscape architect to prepare
what they felt to be the best landscaping plan for the site given
those constraints keeping in mind the most important was the Main
Street frontage. She felt they have provided a very adequate
landscape plan for the site. They have provided a number of
evergreen trees to provide screening of the truck dock areas as
well as to provide screening to neighbors across the street to
help break up the length of the building. While they could
provide 100 additional trees on the site, she is not convinced
that this is a reasonable requirement given this particular
project and the scale of the project. They are between the two
standards. The square foot calculation is 265, the perimeter
calculation is 68, and they are proposing 165. The plan proposed
provides an improvement compared to other projects along Main
Street and will provide a very well landscaped project to the
neighbors across the street. That is the only issue they have to
discuss. They just received the engineer'S letter and, based on
a quick review, she thought they were okay with those items at
this point. -After they have a chance to review.the�.e items in
more, there may need to be further discussions.
Ms. Foster stated, with respect to the operation of the building,
not all of the materials that go into the warehouse will be
C�L
PLANNING COMMI5SION MEETING, JULY 13, 1994 �PAGE 6
coming by rail. Some will�come.in by rail and go out by truck;�
some will.come in by truck and go out by truck. It will depend
on the particular mix of product in the building. Given the type
of business, this will vary.
Mr. Kondrick asked if there were plans to berm on the Main Street
side of the building.
Mr. Wacholz stated there are berms at the corners to screen the
dock areas. With the ponding in the front to retain the water,
there was not enough room to berm the front of the building.
Ms. Foster stated they tried to develop a good landscape
statement with the front. They plan to plant 165 trees so
technically they are 100 short of the maximum interpretation of
the ordinance but 100 over the minimum interpretation. With a
building of this size, the number can get out of sync with what
is expected for a smaller building.
Mr. Kondrick stated he had no problem with the landscape plan as
provided. Perhaps using larger trees would seem like a good
compromise.
Mr. Sielaff asked if there was a minimum requirement for trees in
the code.
Ms. McPherson stated the minimum size is 1.5 inches for
ornamental trees, 2.5 inches for street trees, and 6 feet for
conifers. The trees proposed are the minimum required by code.
Mr. Newman asked if this required a variance.
Ms. Dacy stated this is part of the code. A variance request
would go to the Appeals Commission. 5he would suggest staff
speak with petitioner about a larger tree standa�d. The
petitioner is correct that the formula for a large building will
require a lot of trees. This issue can be worked out with staff.
Mr. Oquist asked staff to speak to the different interpretations
and how they are applied.
Ms. Dacy stated the intent of the ordinance is basically the
bigger the building then there should then be a large number of
trees to soften the impact. This is a very large building.
While she agrees with the petitioners intent to put most of the
landscaping on the north, east and west sides, there is
additional room for additional trees.
Ms. McPherson stated the calculation is that there shall be one
tree for every 50 feet of lot line perimeter or one tree for
1,000 square feet of building area, whichever is greater.
5E
.'PLANNII�IG �COMMISS�ON MEETING�, .JULY 13, 1994 PAGE 7.'
�.� Mr: Sielaf� asked if t�here: saas a difference. in the ntimber� .• �. '
required when us'ing larger tr�es as compared to smaller trees.
Ms..Dacy stated yes. The total number of required bverstory
� tree.s may�be reduced by 1/2 tree for each deciduous tree
measuring 3 inches or more in diameter or each coniferous tree
mea�uring 8 ieet or over.
Mr. Kondrick stated he would like to see more big trees which
could be put in the landscape plan.
Ms. Foster stated they would be open to that if there are areas
� where the trees should be Iarger. They do not want to provide an
. ex�essive amount of landscaping which doesn't serve a real
benefit for �the project.and is an expense for Murphy Warehouse .
Company.
. Ms: Dacy stated it.is-.�up to the petitioner as to�whether they � �
want to appTy for a variance.. Staff is comfortable with the lot
spli� request., Staff wouTd like to resolve the Tandscapi�►g .
issue. If they want to proceed with the lot split request, they
can proceed with a variance at a later time.
Mr. Oquist stated they can indicate in their recommendation for
the lot split to work out the landscape plan.
Mr; Newman asked if the parcel to the south was occupied.
Ms. McPherson stated she believed so.
Mr. Oquist asked if the railroad spur went through the building.
Ms. Foster stated yes.
Mr. Sielaff asked who is the owner of the property.
Ms. Foster stated BNR is the current owner. Murphy Warehouse
Compa_ny will purchase the site from BNR and Murphy wi21 own the
building. Murphy Warehouse Company is a public warehousing
company and provides warehouse space for other companies. They
will not subdivide the space. Companies that contract with them
are provided a space in the building and need to know they can
move their product in and out of the building when they require.
It is not like a multi-tenant building with separate spaces.
Murphy's headquarters and main facility is in Minneapolis. They
have a facility in Roseville and lease space in Fridley. This
wi11 allow them to own and have product in their own building.
Mr. Oquist asked how many people would work there.
5F
, PbANNING COMMISSION MEETING, JULY 13, 1994 PAGE 8
Ms. Foster�stated�approximately 20=25 employee� would.be at the
site. They do have some seasonal tenants so there are times when.
there are more people in the building. At this time they have
one shift, hut there could potentially be two shifts.
Ms. Dacy stated staff have worked with Murphy over the last few
months. They have done a lot of work to meet the ordinance
requirements, especially in regards to the loading docks.
Mr. Kondrick asked what specific plans does Anoka County have for
the upgrading of Main Street.
Ms. Dacy stated the County is in the planning process right now.
Drainage is one issue and the bikeway/walkway is another issue.
It is mostly.for th� storm sewer but she was not sure if it was
to be widened.
MOTION by Mr. Kondrick, seconded by Mr. Oquist, to recommend
approval. of the lot split request, L.S. #94-02, by Murphy
Warehouse Company to split property into two separate parcels
generally located at 48th Avenue and Main Street. The legal
descriptions for the two lots are as.follows: Parcel A: The
south 1025.22 feet of Lot 2, Auditor's Subdivision No. 79, as
measured at a right angle to and parallel with the south line of
said Lot 2 and whi.ch lies easterly of a line parallel with and
distant 511.00 feet easterly of, as measured at a right angle to
and parallel with the Burlington Northern Railroad Company
(formerly Northern Pacific Railway Company) main track
centerline, except the east 33.00 feet of said Lot 2; and Parcel
B: That part of Lot 2, Auditor's Subdivision No. 79, which lies
north of the south 1025.22 feet of said Lot 2, as measured at a
right angle to and parallel with the south line of said Lot 2 and
which lies easterly of a line parallel with and distant 511.00
feet easterly of, as measured at a right angle to and parallel
with the Burlington Northern Railroad Company (formerly Northern
Pacific Railway Company) main track centerline, except the east
33.00 feet of said Lot 2; with the following stipulations:

The petitioner shall dedicate a 67-foot drainage and
utility easement along the east property line.
An access easement shall be recorded over the spur line
on the vacant parcel.
3. The owner shall notify the Community Development
Department if use of the building changes from a
warehouse to a manufacturing facility causing the need
for additional parking.
4. The petitioner shall pay a park dedication fee of
$15,529.14 at the time of building permit issuance.

6. The petitioner shall comply with the items in Mr.
Erickson's letter dated July 13, 1994.
Mr. Newman stated, in the landscape plan, they tried to do a nice
job but six-foot trees in front of a 33-foot building does not
screen. Going to a larg2r tree would add to the screening and
reduce the number of trees required. He encouraged them to work
with staff to see if they could work something out. He felt the
unique hardship would be the rail line to the rear of the
property. This does appear to be a very well thought out plan.

PETITIONER•
Murphy Warehouse Company., petitioner. . .
Burlington Northern Railroad, owner.
LOCATION•
Generally Zocated between 47th and 49th AVenues and between Main
Street and the Burlington Northern railyards. The property is
vacant and zoned M-2, Heavy Industrial.� �
REOUEST•
The petitioner proposes to purchase 15.5 acres of a 19.72 acre
parcel. The petitioner proposes to construct a 265,482 square
foot warehouse on the property.
ANALYSTS•
Subdivision Requirements
The proposed lot split will create two parcels, one 15.5 acres,
the other 4.22 acres. The lot widths are 1318.93 and 293.70 feet
respectively. Both exceed the minimum lot area and lot width
requirements of 1.5 acres and 150 feet. An active Amoco fuel
line is located along the south property line and a 21 inch MWCC
interceptor is located along the west property line.
Anoka County has requested that a 67 foot drainage and utility
easement be dedicated along the east property line abutting Main
Street. Anoka County will be reconstructing Main Street this
Fall and will use the easement for stormwater ponding purposes.
**Stipulation** The petitioner shall dedicate a 67 foot
drainaqe and utility easement alonq tbe east
property line.
District Requirements
The petitioner proposes to construct a 265,482 square foot

warehouse facility. The building will be 602 feet by 442 feet
and 33 feet tall. The�building will be constructed of precast
concrete panels. The warehouse will contain a spur line from the
Burlington Northern main line. The spur line will be located on
the west side of the.building. The spur:line crosses the vacant
parcel to the north. An access easement should be recorded over
the spur line.
**Stipulation** An access easement shall be recorded over the
spur line on the vacant parcel.
Deliveries �ill b� received from railcars, and�product will also
leave via rai]. transportation. The.peti.tioner anticipates
approximately 30 trucks per day. Hours of operation will be from
6:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., with a possibility of a second shift.
The proposed warehouse facility will have loading docks and
driveways on the north and south sides of the building. There
will be a total of 28 loading docks; l4 on each side.. The
proposed building meets the minimum setback requirements of the
M-2, Heavy Industrial District, including the 100 foot setback
from the R-1, Single Family Dwelling DistriEt on the east side of
Main Street.
The petitioner requires the use of only 33 parking spaces for the
employees proposed to be at the warehouse. The plan provides an
additional 106 spaces as proof of parking to meet the parking
requirements of the building as it is proposed to be used. It
appears, however, that a portion of the proof of parking
encroaches into the northerly stormwater pond. The Engineering
Department is reviewing this more closely. The building has been
designed to allow for future subdivision into smaller tenant
spaces. The site can accommodate adequate parking for reuse of
the building. To insure that the City is aware of any intended
modifications affecting parking generation, a stipulation is
recommended to require the owner to notify the City.
**Stipulation** The owner shall notify the Community
Development Department if use of the buildinq
chanqes from a warehouse to a manufacturinq
facility causinq the need for additional
parking.
Under two reuse scenarios, the building could accommodate:
1. 4,000 sq, ft office
50,000 sq. ft. manufacturing
201,882 sq. ft. warehouse
244 total parkinq spaces

Drainaqe
Stormwater currently flows across the site from the northeast to
the southwest, toward the Burlington Northern railyards. The
petitioner submitted a preliminary grading plan which reverses
this flow, discharging the water into Anoka County's new
stormwater pipe to be located in Main Street along the easterly
property line. In conjunction with Anoka County's reconstruction
of Main Street, Anoka County has proposed to install a stormwater
pipe along the west side of this section of street. The
installation of the storm pipe will allow the petitioner to
discharge their stormwater at this location. The stormwater from
the site will be metered at the predeveloped flow rate, or five
cubic feet per second, whichever is less. Anoka County is
installing a stormwater pipe because the existing system in Main
Street is not adequate to handle existing flows. Should the plan
proposed by Anoka County fail to be realized, the petitioner has
two options for discharging water to the west:
1. The stormwater would be piped into the existing
Burlington Northern stormwater system located within
the railyard.
2. The petitioner will install a new pipe on the west side
of the parcel from the subject parcel, south to an 84
inch municipal stormwater pipe which then flows west
toward the Mississippi River.
The stormwater from the undeveloped parcel to the north will also
be allowed to outlet to the new system at the predeveloped rate,
or at five cubic feet per second, whichever is less.
The petitioner has submitted hydraulic calculations for the
proposed development. The Engineering Department is currently
reviewing these calculations and will have a set of recommended
stipuiations for the Planning Commission's review at their July
13, 1994 meeting. The petitioner will be required to comply with
the recommended stipulations.
Park Dedication
The petitioner will be required to pay park dedication fees at
the time �f building permit issuance. The rate of dedication is

The petitioner has submitted a landscape plan. The petitioner
proposes to place most of the landscape materials along the Main
Street frontage to break up the "mass" of the building and to
�prosride screening and buffering�for.the residential property to
the east. The ordinance requires 265.trees (265,842 square feet
divided by 1,000). �The petitioner should provide an additional
l00 trees or request.a variance.to the.requirement. Planting. �
�.larger trees woulc� 'reduce �trie �nuittber of �rees .required by 25%� to �

�; Subject: Drainage and Grading Review of the Murphy Warehouse De�elopment on Main Street
Dear Mr. Steinhoft:
The following comments should be incorporated into the drainage and grading pfan for this
project: ,
1. Provide a 15-ft wide bikeway/walkway easement along the entire east side of the subject
property adjacent to the existing right-of-way.
2. A storm pond agreement will need to be signed and recorded with the property.
3. Clearly show the location of the Metro Waste Control easement along the back property
line.
4. The sanitary connection to the Metro Waste Controf main wilf need their review and
approval. Submit copies of the approval along with any details and/or changes required.
5. An outside drop connection should be detailed fior the sanitary sewer connection.
6. Submit a petition requesting the City to install watermain connects with the cost to be
assessed to the property owners. The petition should also waive the requirement for a
public hearing.
7. Per conversations with the Anoka County Highway Department, they will be installing a
new section of storm water pipe along the west side of Main Street. With this as a storm
water outlet for this site, the grade on the detention ponds can be revised to allow for
positive drainage thus eliminating the drain tile system and possible iift station installation.,
8. Modify note No. 13 to read "along the entire south and west property line."

Faz 612-936-4529, . . ,
On behalf of Murphy Warehouse Company, Opus Corporarion is submitting this application for a
lot division in order to accommodate the development of a 265,000 squaze foot warehouse facility
at 48th and Main Street. Murphy Warehouse Company is a warehouse operation that provides
� third-party logisric services�for its customers. A description of their company was provided to you
in a letter dated May 2, 1994, a copy of which accompanies this applicadon.
� Murphy Warehouse Company.proposes to develop this warehouse fa�ility on�a.15.5 acre site at
48th and. Main Streets in Fridley. The. proposed lot division will divide a paFt of Lot 2, �uelitor's '
Subdivision No. 79 into two parcels, the southerly parcel as the building site and the northerly
parcel to remain under fhe ownership of BN Leasing Corporation.
The proposed warehouse facility will meet all City codes and ordinances. It will be a 26-foot clear
facility constructed of raked finish, painted, precast Fabcon panels with accent striping,_
Information on the proposed Fabcon panels is enclosed. Landscaping and berming will screen the
dock areas and provide visual relief to the huilding.
With respect to parking, Murphy will utilize only the 33 spaces shown to be constructed. The plan
shows the additional 106 spaces required as proof of parking. VF�e have also analyzed the parking
requirements for the building under two reuse alternatives. If the docks remain as shown, the site
can accommodate 244 parking spaees which would allow the building to be used as 4,000 square
feet of office, 50,000 squaze feet of manufacturing, and 201,882 squaze feet of warehouse space.
If some of the dock areas are utilized for parking, 366 parking spaces can be provided. Then the
building could be used as 6,000 squaze feet of office, 110,000 square feet of manufacturing and
139,882 square feet of warehouse space. Therefore, we feel the site area as proposed provides
sufficient flexibility for possible reuse of the building with adequate parking.
We request consideration of this application by the Planning Commission on July 13. Please let

Split one parcel into two residential lots.
ANALYSIS•
Project/Parcel Description
The subject parcel is composed of 10 platted lots, minus the
portion taken for highway purposes for the I-694 entrance ramp.
The lots are combined into one PIN number. Located on the parcel
is a single family dwelling and a detached garage. An old
foundation�is also located on the property north of the existing
structures. There are a number of large mature trees located on
the property. The property is zoned R-3, General Multiple Family
Dwelling.
The petitioner is proposing to split the lot on one of the
existing platted lot lines. Typically, this would be handled
administratively as a division. However, due to the unique shape
of the lot, variances will be required as the petitioner proposes
to construct a four-plex on the vacant portion of the lot. The
City Attorney advised staff that as variances are required, the
lot split and variance process should be pursued by the
petitioner.
District Requirements
The R-3, General Multiple Family District allows one, two, and
multiple family dwellings as principle uses. For one family
dwellings, the R-1 District requirements must be met. The lot

split Will create a separate par�el 15,437 square�feet in.�area
and 11fl feet wide for the existing.single family.dwelling. TYiis
meets the minimum requirements for the R-1 District. The setback
requirements are also met.
The vacant parcel has a lot area of 18,047 square feet and a lot
width of 303.76 square feet. Both meet the minimum requirements
for the R-3 District. The parcel is shaped like a 30-60-90 right
triangle, which leaves a small buildable area after the setbacks
are applied. The Iot is double-fronted because of the I-694
right-of-way, therefore a 35 foot setback is required for both
the front and rear yards. The petitioner has submitted site
plans for both a single family and multiple family dwelling. The
single family dwelling can be constructed on the parcel without
variances. The petitioner, however, wants to construct a four-
plex, which will require a variance for the garages as well as a
portion of the dwelling. Approval of the lot split should be
contingent on approval of the variance request.
**Stipulation**
Access and Utilities
Variance Request, VAR #94-10 shall be
approved.
The parcel has access onto 4th Street. A curb cut is located
the southern portion of the vacant parcel. It does not appear
that the petitioner will be able to utilize this curb cut for
proposed garages. The petitioner will be required to replace
curb cut when a new one is constructed.
**Stipulation** The petitioner shall replace the existinq
curb cut when a new curb cut is installed.
on
the

Sewer and water services have been stubbed to the property line
for the vacant parcel. The petitioner will be required to pay
Sewer Availability Charges (SAC) at the time of the building
permit. The petitioner should verify with Metropolitan Waste
Control the exact amount of the fee.
**Stipulation**
Grading and Drainage
SAC fees shall be paid at the time of
buildinq permit issuance.
The petitioner did not submit a grading and drainage plan as part
of the lot split application. The petitioner will be required to
submit such a plan prior to the issuance of a building permit.
The grading plan should show the existing and proposed
topography, the location of the existing trees, indicating which
ones will be preserved, and spot elevations for the drainage. An
erosion control plan may be required. A decision regarding the
erosion control will be made based on the grading plan submitted.

Rail Transit plans as a potential park and ride site. The
petitioner has been made aware:that Anoka County is looking at
the subject parcel�ior that purpose. Anoka County continues to
be responsible for LRT planning activities.

lots are as follows:
Tract A: Lots 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13, Block 12,
Hamilton's Addition to Mechanicsville, Anoka, Minnesota,
except that part lying westerly of the east right-of-way line
of State Trunk Highway No. 47 (University Avenue N.E.)
Tract B: Lots 14, 15, and 16, Block 12, Hamilton`s.Addition
to Mechanicsville, Anoka County, Minnesota, together with that
part of vacated 54th Avenue N.E. and the vacated alley
accruing, except that part lying westerly of the east right-
of-way Zine of State Trunk Highway No. 47 (University Avenue
N.E.)
Ms. McPherson stated the subject property is located at the
intersection of 54th Avenue and 4th Street. The property abuts
the I-694 ri_ght-of-way and the entrance ramp to eastbound I-694.
�I'he pro�erty is zoned R-3 , General t•lultiple Dcaell ing _

�ar�ianc.es are .required. Trie City `Attorney. adv'ised staff �ha� a
variance request .and�.a: formal. lot�:split request sHould..�be pursued
by the petition�er. � � �
Ms. McPherson stated the petitioner has submitted a site plan for
a single family dwelling unit for Traet A. It can meet the setback
requirements; however, a four-plex would need setback variances
from the I-694 �right-of-way for a porfiion of the dwelling and for
the proposed garages.
Ms. McPherson stated "the property has direct access onto 4th
Street. There is an existing curb cut; however, the petitioner's
site plan shows a driveway farther north from the existing curb
cut, so a new curb cut will need to be created and the original
one closed. � -
Ms. McPherson stated sewer and water services are available.to the
site. The Sewer Availability Gharge (SAC) will be required at the
time of the building permit issuance. The Metropolitan Waste
Control will verify that amount..
Ms. McPherson stated the petitioner did not submit a grading and
drainage plan. Such a plan will need to be submitted with the
building permit application. The plan should show the topogr.aphy,
the location of the existing trees, indicating which trees will be
preserved, and spot elevations for the drainage. An erosion
control plan may be required. That decision will be based upon the
submitted grading plan.
Ms. McPherson stated there is a park dedication fee of $750 to be
paid at the issuance of the building permit.
Ms. McPherson stated this particular property was considered by
Anoka County as part of the Light Rail Transit park and ride
facility. The petitioner has been made aware of that.
Ms. McPherson stated staff recommends that the Planning Commission
recommend approval of the request with five stipulations:
l. Variance request, VAR #94-10, shall be approved.
2. The petitioner shall replace the existing curb cut when
a new curb cut is installed.
3. SAC fees shall be paid at the time of building permit
issuance.
4. The petitioner shall submit a grading and drainage plan
prior to the issuance oF a building permit.
5. A park fee of $750 shall be paid at the issuance of a
building permit.

Mr. � Charles� Westl'ing sta�ed. the onl-y question he• had �was r�garding -� .'
stip�ulation� �2� �regarding t}�e Curb cut: _ He' .stated ..tie �intends to � � . �
� 1 ive. . in th�e �.our--piex .i f� he gets approva.l, to construct � it�. � TYi� . one '�.� �
i�ncon�ve�nience he cah. see _from moving o.ut of hi�s exist'ing' h�buse �with
an attached garage is not being able to get near the buildinq with
the unattached garages being a little distance from the bu�.lding.
He was thinking of the possib.il.'ity of using the existing curb cut
and somehow spiraling a driveway through the front of the property
and still make it look nice.
Ms. McPherson stated the City has no policy that would prohibit
that. She stated staff can work with the petitioner to develop a
plan for the driveway that will look nice.
Mr. Newman stated stipulation #2 only requires that the petitioner
replace the existinq curb cut when a new curb cut is installed..
If he does not install a new curb cut, th.en he would not have to
replace the existing.one. � �
Mr. Charles Schurstei�i, 110Q - 43 l/2 Avenue, s.tated.:he .is the �
property owner of the property south of tlie subject property. The
only question he has is the status of the vacated 54th Avenue going
to the University Avenue_easement. Is that�part-of their property
now, or do the property owners need to petition to have that added
to their properties?
Mr. Newman stated that generally when an alley or street is
vacated, it is divided equally between the two adjoining property
owners. However, it does depend on how the property was originally
platted.
Ms. McPherson stated she would research this and get an answer for
Mr. Schurstein.
Mr. Schurstein stated that he has no objection to the lot split as
requested by Mr. Westling.
MOTION by Mr. Kondrick, seconded by Mr. Sielaff, to recommend to
City Council approval of lot split request, L.S. �94-01, to split
Lots 6-16, Block 12, Hamilton's Addition to Mechanicsville, into
two separate lots, generally located at 5400 - 4th Street N_E. with

REQU.EST: . . . .
♦ To reduce the front yard setback from 35 feet to 5 feet to
allow the construction of a four-plex and a five car garage.
BACRGROUND• '
♦ The petitioner is proposing to split the subject parcel into
two lots. The Planning Commission reviewed the lot split
request at its June 29, 1994 meeting. The Commission
recommended that the City Council approve the request
subject to approval of the variance.
ANALYSIS:
♦ Section 205.09.o3.D.(1) of the Fridley Zoning Code requires
a front yard setback of 35 feet.
Public purpose served by this requirement is to allow for
off-street parking without encroaching on the public right-
of-way and also for aesthetic consideration to reduce the
building "line of sight" encroachment into the neighbor's
front yard.
The subject parcel is shaped like a 30-60-90 right triangle.
If the lot split is approved, a smaller triangular parcel
that is vacant will be created. The lot is "double-
fronted"; two property lines abut public rights-of-way. The
front property line abuts 4th Street. The other front yard,
"rear" property line, abuts I-694 diagonally from the
southwest to the northeast.

Staff�Report . . � .
VAR #94-10;�5400.- 4th Street�N.E:,.Charle� Westling. �._ : . � �
Page .2 . . . . . . . . . : . . � �
The petitioner is requesting a variance to reduce the
setback.adjacent to the I-694 frontage f�om 35 feet to 5
feet.to allow the construction of a garage on the prope�ty.
The proposed dwelling will also encroach into the setback,
requiring a variance from 35 feet to 18._feet. The remaining-
setbacks along 4th Street and the south property line will
meet or exceed the requirements of the R-3 district.
Granting the variance would not adversely impact adjacent
properties. The east-bound entrance ramp to I-694 is
located approximately 230 feet from the "rear" property line
of the subject parcel. The petitioner did submit a site
plan for a single family dwelling which does not require.
variances. The property, however,��is zoned properly for a
four-plex. � .
Previous variances on double-fronted lots have been granted
to within 14 feet of the lot line. However, in this
instance, the I-694 side of the subject property functions
as a"rear" yard. The City has previously granted rear yard
variances to 0 and 1 feet.
RECOMMENDATIONlSTIPIILATIONS:
♦ Staff has no recommendation on this request. If the Appeals
Commission recommends approval, the following stipulations
are recommended:
l. Lot split request, L.S. #94-01, shall be approved.
2. The petitioner shall provide a hard surface driveway by
June 1, 1995.
APPEALS COMMISSION ACTION
♦ The Appeals Commission voted unanimously to recommend
approval of the request as stipuiated to the City Council.
CITY COUNCIL RECOMMENDATION
♦ Staff recommends that the City Council concur with the
Appeals Commission action.

AFFEALS COMMISSION MEETING,�JULY 12, 1994 PAGE 2
. . . Ms . .McPherson stated .��x.e � variance req�est � �is� €or `�t�ie parcel- � � - .
located at 5400 - 4t1� Street;�whi�h is located on the northwest
corner of the intersection of 54th Avenue and 4th Street. The
petitioner has also applied for.a lot split fio separate the �
parcel into two porti�ons. There _is an existing single famil�
dwelling unit on the parcel. The lot split would approve
splitting the prqperty into a parcel for the single family
dwelling and a vacant developable parcel. The Planning
Commission reviewed the lot split at its June 29 meeting and
recommended the City Council approve the lot split request
subject to approval of the variance request.
Ms. McPherson stated the subject parcel is zoned R-3, General
Multiple Family Dwelling, and tYie�petitioner is proposing to
construct a four,�lex and a five.car.gara�e. The parcel is.
shaped like a 30-60-90 degree triangle with the long side facing
I-694. It is considered double�fronted because it is.on two
street frontages., 4th Street and I-694. Th� zoning code requires
the same setback on both frontages which is 35 feet. The
proposed building as submitted by the petitioner does meet the 35
foot front setback on 4th Street; however, the petitioner is
requesting a variance down to 5 feet on the I-694 frontage to
allow construction of the five car garage. Because the lot is
triangular, the buildable area after applying the setbacks is
also triangular; therefore, a variance down to l8 feet would aiso
be required for the proposed dwelling unit. There is
approximately 230 feet from the rear lot line to the paved
entrance ramp for eastbound I-694. The petitioner also submitted
a site plan showing a single family dwelling unit on the property
which did not need any variances; however, the parcel is properly
zoned for construction of a four-plex.
Ms. McPherson stated the City has previously granted a variance
on a double fronted lot down to 14 feet of the lot line. In this
case, the I-694 lot line is functioning more as a rear yard and
the City has previously granted rear yard variances down to 0 and
1 foot. Staff has no recommendation regarding this request;
however, staff recommends two stipulations should the Commission
choose to recommend approval to the City Council:
l. Lot split request #94-01 shall be approved.
2. The petitioner shall provide a hard surface driveway to
the garages by June l, 1995.
Dr. Vos stated it appears as if there are two reguests - one for
a variance down to 5 feet and another to 18 feet.
Ms. McPherson stated staff are recommending approval down to 5
feet which will take care both.

petitioner could�move the four-plex within.5 feet�of the pzoperty �
1ine. �
Ms. McPherson stated this was correct:
Mr. Kuechle asked the minimum lot size required.
Ms. McPherson stated the minimum lot size required in for R-3 for
a four-plex is 15,000 square feet: The lot split as proposed
would create a parcel just over 18,000 square feet. This meets
the lot size requirement.
Mr. Westling stated the property was his inother!s�property and.
she passed away recently. His sister is living is.the existing
house on what will be one lot. He is planning to live there
also. The bui�ding units will. have over 1,000 square feet_per� •
unit. Eac� wi1l be.a two-bedro.om �nit, alZ.self contained. `.This
is large� than other units in the area.
Dr. Vos asked what the exterior would be.
Mr. Westling stated the exterior.wouZd probably be steel siding
with brick front so it would be maintenance free. The garage
would have the same.
Dr. Vos asked the petitioner about his intent regarding the 5
feet setback for the four-plex.
Mr. Westling stated he has no interest in going back that far
with the four-plex. This does not make sense.
Ms. Pam Smith asked if there would be access to the garages from
the alley.
Mr. Westling stated there will be no alley there.
Ms. P. Smith asked if t�ere could be any restrictions for
parking. She lives in a single fami.ly dwelling across the street
and does not want to have parking in front of her house.
Mr. Westling stated this should not happen. A driveway will come
on the south side of the property which will be constructed by
the front of the building with sufficient parking so there should
not be parking on the street.
Dr. Vos asked if it was correct that he was constructing a five-
car garage for the four-plex.
Mr. Westling stated this was correct. One space wiil be for his
use for a shop.
7H
APPEALS COMMISSION MEETING, JULY 12, 1994 PAGE 4
_ Dr. Vos asked s�aff if ther.e was parking:q�n both sides of the�
street on 4th. � �
Ms. McPherson stated she believed so at this time. Ms. Smith can
request that the City Council post a"No Parking" sign on her
side of the street if that was necessary and this can be
submitted in writing to the City Council.
Ms. Dacy stated that residents usually submit a petition to the
City Council to make sure that a majority of the home owners on
that side of the street consent to that.
Ms. P. Smith stated there is a great deal of traffic there. She
felt sure that Mr. Westling would.have a nice building, bu.t she
does not want another apartment building there. Would the value
of her home go down as a result?
Mr. Westling stated he felt this was not likely with this kind of
a building.
Ms. Dacy stated the property has been zoned multiple family for a
number of years. She believes the Assessor's Office takes that
into account on the current valuation of the property. Any sale
is dependent on the relationship between the buyer and seller. ,
What is being proposed is consistent with the zoning district an3
the Assessor's Office is aware of the situation.
Mr. Kappes stated the alley at the end of 54th Street has been
partially vacated. He did not want to see traffic from the
praposed property using an alley which may affect his lot to the
south.
MOTION by Dr. Vos, seconded by Ms. Smith, to close the public
hearing.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, VICE-CHAIRPERSON RUECHLE
DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED AND THE PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED AT 8:14
P.M.
Ms. Smith stated she would be inclined to vote for approval of
the request. The spirit of the code is being met. With I-694
behind the parcel, this creates a unique situation. Since the
spirit of the code is being met and there are no line-of-sight
problems, she would vote to recommend approval.
Ms. Beaulieu agreed. The hardship is the odd-shaped lot and the
two frontages. Since similar requests have previously been
approved, she would vote for approval.
Dr. Vos stated he would also vote for approval mostly because of
ttie double frontage. He would vote for approval with the

Cansideration of Human Resources Commission
Recommendation for Allocation of 1994-1995 CDBG
Human S�rvice Funds,;.Resolution Auth�rizing_the.:
City to Ent�r: into Contracts with. Recipients �,
At its June 9, 1994 meeting, the Human Resources Commission (HRC)
reviewed the CDBG proposals and developed its funding
recommendations. A copy of the HRC's meeting minutes are
attached for your review.
At its June 29, 1994 meeting, the Planning Commission approved a
motion concurring with the HRC's proposed funding
recommendations. A copy of the Planning Commission's meeting
minutes is attached for your review.
Shortly after the Planning Commission meeting, staff became aware
that one agency recommended for funding (Family Counseling Clinic
Northeast) is not eligible for CDBG funding since it is not a
licensed non-profit agency as defined by HUD requirements. On
July 14, 1994, a special HRC meeting was held to determine
funding recommendations for the $3,000 initially allocated to
this agency. Attached is a table showing each organization, the
amount requested, last year's allocation (if applicable), and the
HRC's recommendation for 1994-1995 after the revision on July 14,.
1994. A copy of the HRC's meeting minutes from July 14, 1994 is
also attached.
Attached is a proposec� resolution authorizing the City to enter
into contracts with recipients of the CDBG funds. Anoka County
requires that separate contracts be signed by the City and the
organization for each individual grant awarded.
A representative from the HRC will be in attendance at the City

was developed for the City Council to provide them with information
on the requesis. He has routed to the City Council a memo along
with a copy of all of the requests for their information and asked
for comnents and concerns. As of this time, he has received no
comments.
Alexandra House - Request: $4,500
Ms_ Mau stated Alexandra House is coming with the same type of
request but a different program this year than in the past. Last

is for advoca�e� salary and �in-servi�ce trairiing.� It is' not as� if
the program is not as qood as last year, they just have less money
to work with. She believed $3,000 is a fair amount because they
are getting a good return.�on�the investment. .
Mr. Coverston agreed..
Mr. Welf agreed with Ms. Mau's comments, but he re�ommended $2,500
in funding-.
Amount Recommended - $2,500

by more people. � .. _ - - • • . . : . . .
Mr. Welf agreed. � �
Mr. Coverston stated he went with the thought that there are 3-4
that will not go to camp this year.
Mr. Welf stated there are other programs with better records for
serving more people.
Ms. Mau stated this agency gets funding from ather sources so they
have other sources for these kids.
Amount Recommended - $ -0-
Centra2 Center for Family Resottrces - Reqttest• $3,000
Ms. Mau stated this is the same program as last year. It does not
fit "new and innovative". The orgar.ization gets funding from other
sources. She would personally rather see funding go to those who
do not have other resouzc�s. She recommended no funding unless
funds were available after the other allocations were made.
Mr. Welf stated they talked about going to the schools and dealing
with children at the schools. They did not say anything about what
happens after school closes. He w.ould also recommend no funding
based on the fact that this is not new and does not fit the
criteria_

_ Mr.• Cov.erst�on: stated he� is concerried about ,ti�ie fact that there is ` � �
'� a waiting list and they�cannot help all those who come to them.
� He recozr:mended funding because of the waiting list.
Amount Recommended - $1,000
CiiAP.(Carinc�, Helpinq and Providinq) Corp = Request• $3,968
Ms. Mau stated she was impressed with the program. They have 93
families in Fridley alone.. They are.expanding constantly, and t�ey .
are totally nonprofit.
Mr..Welf stated he visited the store. The store is well run and
the staff was working�fiard. If these people get displaced during
�the funding year and do�not serve �the Fridley area,�he recommends
funding be cut off for the period they�are not there..
Ms. Mau stated what impressed her.�the most�.w�s that the people do
not draw any money out bf it. Everything that comes in goes back
to the people. � . . �
Mr. Coverston stated he questioned in the_budget the $5,000 in
tithes. He was not sure this was appropriate for an agency serving
others.
Mr. Barg stated they can stipulate the money is to be used under
certain circunistances. If not, the funds will not be allocated.
CHAP may have a plan in place for what they are going to do if they
are displaced from their current location.
Mr. Oquist stated he understood this agency wanted to be in this
area in order to service more people_ The money was requested for
insurance.
Ms. Mau stated she would recommend funding of $3,000.
Mr. Coverston stated he was impressed with the services provided
and how much they provide as individuals. He recommended funding
between $1,500-$2,500 because he was not sure that the tithing was
appropriate for an agency serving others.
Mr_ Oquist stated this is a new request, an innovative program, and
they are serving a large number of people.
Ms. Mau stated she liked the idea that they are asking for
something that is a basic need_ They are not pulling any money
out. Yf they need help with insurance, she thinks it is okay_
Mr. Oquist stated they have good control. They serve 93 families.
f{e recommended $3,000.

Amount Recommended - $3,000
City of Fridley
Recreation and Natural Resource Department - Rectuest• $5,000
Ms. Mau stated the program showed real positive results last year.
The response was good. They served a lot of kids, and 100% of the
funding went to scholarships. This year, they figured out a way
to have shared districts. She could not come up with a reason to
not fund for another year. They are changing the program. She
foresees.th� program growing.to be something that-will include all
�the schoo�. districts in tYie :City .and still have many opp.ortunities
for the kids. She recommended ful�l funding: '
Mr. Coverston.sta.ted.they.are.certainly.serving a lot of kids.-
Mr. Oquist stated it is: �mportaz�t�that t�ey learned from last year.
They are�wor-king with the other.school districts to expand -the.
program. It is a viable program, and he would recommend funding
for one more year to allow the program to expand.
Mr. Welf stated the program still fits into the criteria for
funding.
Ms. Mau stated she checked to see how the summer programs were
going. They are getting a good sign-up. One program they did not
get good participation on last year was called BTast which was two
days a week from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. , and the kids did a variety
of activities. This year the participation is up. The program
seems to be catching on.
Mr. Oquist stated kids tend to shy away from a program the first
time but, when they hear from others how much fun it was, they want
to go and participation increases.
Ms_ Mau stated this is also keeping kids busy.
Amount Recommended: $5,000
Communitv Emerqency Assistance Proqram, Inc Request• $3,000
Ms. Mau stated they served 906 families or 2,700 individuals last
year from Fridley alone. That is a major amount of participation
for i'ridley people.
Mr. Coverston stated he liked the approach to provide unusual ways
in whi_ch they hel� those who would have trouble qetting help.
:
HUMAN RESOURCES COMMISSION MEETING, JUNE 9, 1994 PAGE S
� Ms�. Mau stated ..she liked the way they help faini�lies ge't. gb'ing on
their own. More programs li�ke ttiis will be needed if the two-year
minimum welfare bill is passed. CEAP is one of those programs that
moves people along better than other proqrams.
Amount Recomraended - $3,000
Familv Counselinc7 Clinic No�theast - Request• $60,000
Ms. Mau stated.she liked the program. No one gets ,paid. They do
this on a volunteer basis. Two thousand people were served. When
she first read the request, she did not like it; but when she found
but these were volunteer hours and staff was not drawing a salary
for. its� time, she was conviriced. She recommended $3,0(10 to get
them going...They also,do not'get funding from other sources.
Mr. Welf stated �he. f:elt $3,000 is. a fair-. amount. .cons�deri�g th.is
i's the first request. _ �
Mr: Oquist stated this is a fir.st-time program.
Amount Recommended - $3,000
Northwest Suburban Rinship, Inc - Reguest• $1,500
Ms. Doody stated that, at this point, she could care Iess if the
program is not funded or given $1,500. They can use $1,500. They
can use $5,000. 5he is more c.oncerned about the way she has been
treated in the past by the Commission. She is concerned about the
Commission members who met with the program's representative and
the way she was treated last year and more so this year. Because
Ms. Peka is a handicapped person, they are trying to help her
minimally by giving her a salary for her services at $5.00 per
hour. Who among those present would work for $5.00 an hour? With
the way she was treated, she came back to Ms. Doody and her self-
esteem was zero. Ms. Doody felt her representative was badly
treated. Her program works with kids with low self esteem.
Ms. Doody stated that before coming to the meeting, she received
a call from a parent who wanted her child in the program_ As of
this time and as of a year ago, there is no way the program can
take kids from Fridley first. She tells the parents the name ��ill
be put on a waiting list, but they will not be on the top. She
advises parents to talk to their Councilme.:�ber or Commission
member. Unfortunately, the parents are not going to make the waves
move_
Ms. Doody stated she has not deleted names from the waiting list;
but if Blaine, Anoka, Coon Rapids, Andover and other cities are
fundi_nq Ki_nship wi_th CDBG monies and Fridley is not, there is no
way she can serve Fridley in the same way as the other cities.

come, first-serve when they are not�be'ing funded.'� She takes a
grievance from her staff when a person was treated the way this
person felt whether it was the Commission's intent or not. .
Mr. Oquist stated he was very.� impressed with Ms. Peka's
pr.esentation and had every inten� of providing fundi.ng.for the
progratit this year. She did a very riice job of making the
presentation and answering questions.
Ms. Doody stated her complaint is that Ms. Peka did not come away
feeling that way.. Ms. Doody voiced her concerns to Mr. Barg. Ms.
Peka's self esteem was nil.
Mr.. Oquist. stated. this. was not done by .this Comm.ission..
The Commission members concurred.
Ms. Mau assured Ms. Doody that Ms, Peka. was treated with respect,
and_the Commission_�members asked her the same.kinds �of questions
they asked every one else. She had a mtzch.more posi�tive feeT�ng�
than she had the previous year. _.
Mr. Coverston stated that after talking with Ms. Peka, he had a
favorable feeling about the program.
Ms. Doody was provided with a copy of the minutes of the previous
meeting.
Mr. Oquist stated her representative was treated just like the
other speakers. He did not realize she had a handicap. She
appeared to be nervous but all the presenters are nervous. She
answered the questions very weil.
Ms. Mau stated she went back to read the minutes because she could
not believe the comments made in the memo. The Commission members
asked Ms. Peka questions just Iike anyone els2.
Mr. Oquist stated she presented the program very well, and she
answered the questions very well.
Mr. Welf asked if there was something specific that she did not
like_
Ms. Doody stated Ms_ Peka felt she did not receive respect. She
felt someone supposedly made a comment that they would not fund
because they did not qualify and did not answer a11 of the
questions. Secondly, the financial statement was not copiecl with
the report and she said she could not find it.
:
HUMAN RESOURCES COMMISSZON MEETING, JUNE 9, 1994 PAGE 7
Mr. Welf stated he had asked about that information and had
questioned whether this was an incomplete application. There was
no comment made about not funding because of it.
Mr. Oquist stated he was impressed with the presentation of the
program. This program is similar to Big Brother/ Big Sister, which
had 32 matches in the City.
Mr. Welf stated Kinship had no additional matches in Fridley last
year from the few.matches in the previous year.
Ms. Doody stated they did not receive CDBG funding from Fridley
this past year.
Mr. We1,f.stated that:when he hears that, he:gets the feeling that
� this program does��not have a pro.bono spirit and that ma�ybe there ��
is more interest in�the funding.than in helping the children. This
is what it looks like on:the surface:
� Ms. Doody stated.that if he had read what they said and.documented
� how many hours are put -into a safe match, etc.., he would �not say
thai.
Mr. Welf asked what the expense is after the match is made.
Ms. Doody stated they inonitor the match. They also have high
insurance costs_ Far example, if someone alleges, sexual
misconduct, they can come after the program, staff, board members,
etc. The insurance covers the program and those associated in the
program. Volunteers coming into the program must provide ten
references.
Mr. Oquist stated the.procedure at the last meeting was to limit
the presentations to 15 minutes so he would like to limit comments
to that at this time.
Ms. Doody stated she appreciated the questions which shows an
interest in the community.
Ms. Mau stated there are four volunteers from �'ridley now. It
comes down to the same problem with other programs which is the
number served with the amount of monP�>. She thought the money is
better spent where is serves the most people.
Mr_ Welf stated he is concerned that there is a problem getting
volunteers. To him, this shows no interest in the program by the
general public. He didn't see that he could support the program.
Mr. Coverston stated he was impressed with the presentation of the
staff person_ In view of that and to provide encouragement and
support for the program, he would recommend fundinq at $1,000_
�;
� '_ � HUMAN RESOURCE� COMMISSIOPI MEETTNG�, JUNE 9, 1994 •••PPcGE 8, .
� ' Mr_ Oquist stated he was �also impressed and felt it was time 'to
fund the program_ He is concerned about the four volunteers and
� the.interest that shows. He is not sure ahout the advertising or
�• •• how others know about- the progr�m. - fie� recommended $500. � �
Mr. Cove.zston.stated that in looking at the budget, the amount of•
the program is stated as $2,000. How much of the staffing is also
programining?
, . � �-_.. �
Ms. Mau stated the staff costs are high compared to the program
costs. In looking at the budget proposal for next year, program
administration of $15,700, executive board for $2,000, health
insuranCe at $3:,.500_, .and��. program cost . of. $2 , 479 . �hat is�� ' .
bothersome to her because so much of the money is gaing to expenses
rather than helping the kids. Program aaministration costs for
' .' .- : next. year. a��-.budgeted �at. $20.;:o0Q.. � . � ' � � . �
�. Mr. Welf stated that, to a certain degree, this is because of the
' time it takes.to_set it up.: .
,. .
Ms. Mau agreed, but that is where she is having.a problem. The
actual cost of the program is so much. The rent is in-kind which
means this is being provided so that they are not actually paying
rent.
Ms. Doody stated the total budget includes the in-kind gifts the
program receives, including the volunteers for activities.
Ms. Mau stated the receptionist is also listed as .in-kind. But
nothing else is listed that way, which means those are actual
expenses.
Ms. Doody stated to have a safe match means staff interviews the
volunteers. They have only a half-time person and volunteer hours.
She is being paid and Ms. Peka is paid.
Ms. Mau asked who was paid under program administration expense.
Ms. Doody stated she was paid under program administration expense_
The projected figures are not the same as the actual.
Ms. Mau stated the actual figure on the budget is $17,775. She
wanted to know where the money is being channeled. The payroll for
Ms. Peka is $12,000 for next year. She would go along with $500
to motivate and see how many Fridiey kids are actually served next
year.
Mr_ Welf stated he could go along with that_ Iie would like to have
the figures in on time next year.

would be presented at the next regular meeting in August.
APPROVAL OF AGENDA
Mr. Barg stated that there was no formal agenda for this special
meeting. He added that the meeting's only purpose was to
recommend reallocation of some CDBG human service funds.
l. OLD BUSINESS
Mr. Barg stated that he recently became aware that the Family
Counseling Cli.nic Northeast is ineligible for CDBG funding, since
this agency does not qualify as a licensed nonprofit organization
as defined by HUD requirements. The Commission had recommended
that this agency receive $3,000 in CDBG funds, and the Commission
should now determine how to reallocate these monies and revise its
funding recommendations accordingly. Mr. Barg stated.that the
Commission had previously recommended full funding of reguests for
three agencies (City of Fridley Recreation, Community Emergency
Assistance Program, and St. Philip's Lutheran Church); therefore,
the $3,000 should be allocated to one or more of the other seven
agencies originally recommended for partial or no funding.

SUBJECT: ESTABLISHING SOLID WASTE ABATEMENT FUND
DATE: July 20, 1994
�In 1991; the Finance- Department created a special � rev�n.t�e � fund #o acconat for the
revenues and expenditures related to the recycling program. Tliis fund, the Solid Waste
Abatement Fund, collects state SCORE funds, recycling fees billed to residents and yard
waste fees while paying the City's curbside recycling contract, personnel costs and other
costs associated with recycling.
Under Minnesota Statute Section 115A.929 as amended in 1993, the City must account
for all revenues callected for waste management fees separately from other revenue
collected by the City. The City's recycling fee and yard waste fees qualify as waste
management fees under the new definition and therefore need to be accounted for
separately.
RESOLUTION NO. _ _ - 1994
A RESOLIITION ESTABLISHING THE SOLID WASTE ABATEMENT FIIND
WHEREAS, Minnesota Statute 115A.929 requires the City to account
for all revenue collected from waste management fees which include
yard waste and recycling fees; and
WHEREAS, the City of Fridley believes that it is advantageous to
account for the revenue and expenditures relating to solid waste
abatement separately in order to ensure that these activities are
adequately and appropriated financed.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of
Fridley hereby establishes the Solid Waste Abatement Fund to
account for all revenues and expenditures associated with the any
program designed to decrease the solid waste generated by the City
and its residents.

SUBJECT: RECEIVING AND REJECTING THE BIDS ON PERSONAL
COMPUTERS
DATE: JULY 20, 1994
We have received and xeviewed the personal computer bids from three companies; PC Tailors; PC:
Solutions and �1mer�Data. �n reviewing .�cti�bid, we have�faand�a n�nber of errors atid :_ ' � �..
inconsistencies. In two of the bids t�ie equi�sment clearly does not meet specifications. �
PC Tailors bid a display with a slower than specification display and hard drive, at�d the incorrect
number of ports. They also bid a smaller than specification hard drive for the GIS workstation. PC
Solutions bid a display with a slower than specification display in one configuration and the wrong
wattage power supply in the other configuration. The AmeriData bid was larger than specifications,
thus over our budgeted amount for personal computer replacement.
After consulting with the City Attorney, it is our recommendation that Council receive the bids and
then make a finding that �he bids be rejected ba.sed on non�ompliance with the bid sp�ecifications.
Staff will then re-advertise and hopefully bring back a successful bidder on the Council meeting of
September 6.

SUBJECT: TCAAP Interconnect Pipe Line Project No. 248, Change Order No's 3 and
4
Change Order No. 3 was necessary. in ocder to mill and patch the streets that did not receive

wear course being installed this spring:
1. 16th Street, New Brighton
2. 29th Avenue, New Brighton
3. 63rd Avenue, Fridley
4. 64th Avenue, Fridley
In order to maintain the integrity of the first lift of asphalt which was installed the previous year,
it was necessary to mi11 and patch the base co�arse of asphalt prior to their being overlaid. This
remedial work enhanced the final product and had a cost increase of $5,000 on the total
project. -
Change Order No. 4 was required to restripe Gardena Avenue after the bituminous overlay was
installed. The additional striping was not included in the original contract amount. The cost of
the additional striping was $5,805.
The City of Fridley has no cost associated with these change orders as the amount is covered
by the U.S. Army's portion of the contract.

No. 4 for $5,805 for the TCAAP Interconnection pipe line Project No. 248.
