SUBJECT: Well No. 12 Filtration
The Council has shown an interest to filter the water of Well No. 12. They have requested
information regarding the possibility of diverting Well No. 12 water to Locke Park and utilizing its
excess capacity as an alternate for water production and cost economy.
Well No. 12 can be filtered for iron and manganese removal, adding 2.2 MGD to our system at a cost
of appxoximately $1.4 million. At this location filtered water could be directed into the intermediate
zone or portioned into the low level zone as was necessary.
The water from Well No. 12 can be diverted through a pipe line along 73rd Avenue to the Locke
Park plant for a cost of approximately $800,000. Currently, the Locke Park plant filters Well Nos
10 and 11 and under maximum summer time production has a excess filtering capacity of
approximately .7 MGD. Accordingly, only a portion of Well No. 12 total capacity of 2.2 MGD could
be filtered at Locke Park.
If Well No. 12 was diverted to Locke Park, one of the wells (10 or 11) would be non-productive as
Well No. 12 would overload the system with one other well in operation. Accordingly, we would
not achieve any major increase in water filtration.
As an alternative to piping Well No. 12 to Locke Park, a glacial drift well (Well No. 14) could be
constructed at the Locke Park site to maximize the plants operation at a cost of approximately
$300,000. Well No. 14 would maximize the Locke Park filter plant at a minimum cost. It appears
that DNR would not object to a glacial drift well addition to our system at this time.
Request confirmation on what action the Council would desire regarding the filtering of Well No.
12 water:
A. Diverting the well to Locke Paxk resulting in a slight increase in filtered water (0.7 MGD at
$800,000)
B. Constructing a sepazate filter at Well No. 12, increasing our filtered water (2.2 MGD at
$1,400,000)
C. Constructing Well No. 14 for additional filteYed water (0.7 MGD at $300,000).

���
The Council has raised some interest in providing 100% iron and manganese filtered water
to meet our maximum summer production demands. In this light, we have had Maier
Stewart & Associates (MSA) review the cost for piping well No. 12 to the Locke Park filter
plant, installing new filters at well Nos. 12, 1 and 13 as well as remediating the TCE
contamination of well Nos. 6, 7, 8 and 9.
In the past, with firms such as QUEBECOR and FMC in full operation, we have
experienced a summer demand up to 16 million gallons per day. Currently, the most recent
experience during a warm weather period, without the large water users within the City,
we are now in the vicinity of 13 million gallons per day.
In reviewing the capabilities of water production from our 13 wells, in an optimistic view,
it appears that we can only achieve 100% iron and manganese removal during our peak
summer demand by treating wells 6, 7, 8 and 9 or by individually filtering well No's 12, 1
and 13.
The attached sheet summarizes the filtering capacities of the various options and lists the
costs associated with those improvements. In addition, I have added the summary of Tom
Roushar's analysis of the well No. 12 pipe line to Locke Park.
If you desire any additional information regarding this issue, please let me know.

5UBJECT: Well No. 12
I have requested Tom Roushar from Maier 5tewart & Associates (MSA) to provide us
information regarding the cost to connect Well No. 12 raw water to the Locke Park filter
plant. MSA's estimated cost to construct this line is $800,000. While this is less than the
cost to construct a filter plant at well house No. 12, his response indicates that the use of
the Locke Park filter pla�t for Well No. 12 will reduce the overall capability of providing
100% filtered water for the summer demand
His report indicates that there are some options of mixing the filtering pracess of wells No.
10, 11 and 12 at Locke Park but in each scenario there is always residual iron and
manganese in the effluent. Accordingly, if the Council desires to provide 100% iron and
manganese filtration, the most economical solution is to install a filter at the Well No. 12
well house.

RE: FILTRATION OF WELL NO. 12
This past April, MSA Consulting�Engineers completed the Water Treatment Study for the
City of Fridley. That study concluded that the estimated capital cost of an ir`on and
manganese filtration plant for Well No. 12 would be $1,364,000. This letter will discuss
the feasibility of filtering Well No. 12 at the Locke Pazk Water Treatinent Plant (WTP) in
lieu of constructing an independent water treatment plant for Well No. 12.
ava �c,r,eea,r,c: The Locke Park WTP contains two (2) pressure filters, each with a nominal capacity of
ermROr�,Er�r,u 1,000 gpm. Therefore, the nominal capacity of the Locke Park WTP is 2,000 gpm. The
Mu�nava� Locke Park WTP filters the water from Wells No. 10 and ? 1. When pumped concurrentiy
mar,►�r,c during periods of heavy demand, these wells have a combined capacity of approximately
sou�wnsre 1,500 gpm. Because the Locke Park WTP b.as a nominal capacity of 2,000 gpm, it can be
srnuc�uw� concluded that it cuirendy has 500 gpm of "excess" �capacity.

Well No. 12 has a capacity of approximately 1,500 gpm. If Wells No. 10, 11, aad 12 were
all pumped concurrently into the filters at the Locke Park WTP, the combimed pumping rate
would be approximatsly 3,000 gpm. This rate is 50% greater than the nominal capacity
of the filters. Although the filters are physically capable of passing 3,000 gpm, it is my
opinion that filtration efficiency at this higher filtration rate would be much reduced.
Therefore, the iron and manganese concentrations in the filtered water would be higher
than the filters are currendy producing. Also, the filter iuns would be very short.
SYSiEM COMROLS
Another operating scenario for the Locke park WTP comes to mind, however. To explain
this scenario, the iron and manganese concentrations in Wells No. 10, 11, and 12 must first
be examined. These concentrations are as follows:

From the tabularion presented above, it can be concluded that the water from Well No. 11
has a much lower combined iron and manganese concentration than either of the other two
wells. - -
Because Well No. 11 has higher quality water, the following operating scenario could be
implemented: �
Average Da,y Conditions �
Filter two of the wells (Wells No. 10 and 11, Wells 10 and 12, etc.).
Don't pump the other well.
Maximum DaY Conditions �
Filter Wells No. 10 and 12. Pump We11 �No. 11 unfiltered into the system.
The water currently entering �ridley's distribution system under maximum day conditions
has the following iron and manganese concentrations: �

By comparing the weighted averages for the current condition and the potential operating
• scenario, it can be determined that there would be a modest reduction in iron concentration
and a significant reduction (75 %) in mangane'se concentration. However, the•recommended
secondary standards for iron and manganese would still not be met.
The drawback to the potential operating scenario is the construction cost of the required
raw water line between Well No. 12 and the Locke Park WTP. Over 8,000 linear feet of
16-inch diameter raw water line would be required. Considering the cost of piping
modifications at the Well No. 12 wellhouse and the Locke Park WTP, a jacked crossing
of MTH 65, and the water line constiuction itself, it is reasonable to expect a total capital
cost of $800,000. �
The operating scenario outlined above could also be achieved by drilling aa additional well
(Well No. 14) at the Locke Pazk WTP. Because the additional well could be drilled and
piped into the water plant for a small fraction (25 °Jo) of $800,000, piping Well No. 12 ta
� the Locke Park WTP for treatrnent is not cost-effective. This statement, of course,
assumes that the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (MnDNR) allows the City
of Fridley. to drill an additional well. This may be achievable if Well No. 14 is drilled as
a drift aquifer well. - �
If a water treatment plant is constcucted at Well No. 12, the iron and manganese
concentrations in the plant effluent will be reduced to the same low levels that the Locke
Park WTP produces. A.n alternative to a water plant at Well No. 12 would be to pipe Well
No. 12 to the Locke park WTP and expand the Locke Park WTP. Although the water
plant construction would be cheaper under this alternative, the savings would not offset the
high cost ($800,000) of the raw water line. Therefore, this altemative is not cost-effective,
either.

RE: WATER TREATMENT STUDY
Dear Mr. Flora:
Enclosed are ten copies of the final report. 1VISA truly appreciates this opportunity to have
assisted the City of Fridley with the completion of this study.
During review of the report with the City Council, one important point needs to be made.
The point is that the volume of filtered water that can be produced by the Locke Park and
Commons Park WTPs is based on the individual capacities of Wells 2, 4, 5, 10, and 11
with pumps in good condition. 1'he reality of the matter is that Wells 2, 4, and 5 produce
less than 2,400 gpm when operating together. Similarly, Wells 10 and 11 do not produce
a combined 2,000 gpm even though their individual capacities tota12,000 gpm.
As the well pumps wear between repairs, their capacity also drops off.
If you have any questions regarding the report or this letter, please feel free to call.
Sincerely,
MSA, CONSULTING ENGINEERS

SUBJECT: Stonybrook Creek
PW95-285
We have received notice that the Spring Lake Park City Council is willing to contribute
$50,000 to the 5tonybrook Creek improvement project. They have also requested that the
City provide them a statement that there would be no future assessments for Stonybrook
Creek improvements and that the cost of the project be assessed over the sub-watershed
by the WMO, with the understanding that they would provide their $50,000 when the
project was awarded.
We have also received a petition from 11 of the 18 properties on Stonybrook Creek
supporting the 3/4 pipe (pipe through the first five properties and open protected ditch
through the last three) and supporting a$2,000 assessment per property for the
improvement.
Associated with the Stonybrook Creek 3/4 pipe is the use of fill material from Locke Lake
to restore the erosion and five properties in which the pipe is installed.
As winter would be the best time to remove the material from Locke Lake and because of
low flows would lend itself to a pipe installation project on Stonybrook Creek, the City
needs to decide if this project is to be implemented this year or during the winter of 1996
/1997.
The attached cost analysis identifies a$260,000 project with a City of Fridley contribution
of $75,000, a special assessment of $36,000 to the 18 homes, an ad valorem assessment of
$100,000 in Fridley and $50,000 in Spring Lake Park. If the project was to be initiated this
i�
.

year, the City of Fridley would be required to up-front their $210,000 portion of the project.
These funds would have to be borrowed from one of the other City funds. Restitution would
be made over whatever peiiod of time the assessment project is decided upon.
Based upon this information and the Council's past interest in completing this project, we
need to determine whether or not a final design should be initiated and a contract awarded
this winter.

In reference to subject meeting on October 16, we'd like to present a short VHS tape on the fire
training tower manufactured by Wesco. We have visited their installation at Waterloo, Iowa and
aze impressed by the design and durability of the structure.
Our purpose in reviewing this subject is to identify any concerns with the appearance of a metal
sided structure. In the past, we rejected this type of construction because they used corrugated
steel siding. Wesco's building used galvaneal horizontal siding which offers the same appearance
as a house.
Howie Simonson has seen the Waterloo facility and will be available to answer Council's
questions.

ISSUES REGARDING A COMMUNITY CENTER FACILITY
There are a number of issues that should be addressed regarding a community center facility for the City of Fridley.
I have tried to identify several of these that Council may want to discuss at the conference meeting planned for
Monday, October 16th.
I believe it's important that we identify the philosophy behind providing a community center in our
community. Specifically, what purpose will a community center serve in Fridley? Community centers in
other suburbs all seem to have their own service philosophy. For example, I've noticed a difference in the
new community centers in the cities of Maplewood and New Brighton. Maplewood provides a community
center which is more like a health club and New Brighton seems to be more service oriented with early
childhood programs, a teen drop-in center and a(soon to be included) senior citizens center. What goes in
the facility and how it would be operated is very dependent upon having this question answered. Also, the
amount of fees and charges revenue generated by the center is directly related to the type of facilities
included. We may need to see the community survey results to get a better understanding of what the
community expects and wants out of a community facility.
2. City Council has asked staff to conduct a survey to determine interest in a community center facility. We
have drafted a sample citizens survey and it would be helpful at this point to get input from the City Council
as to additions andlor changes to this sample survey. We also need to know if this should be a separate
survey or if it should be combined with the overall citizens survey that we conduct every couple of years in
this city. The consultant strongly recommends that both surveys be combined into one. We also should have
the Council discuss whether this should be a telephone survey or a mail survey. At our last meeting, you and
I seemed to be in ageement that we combine the citizens survey and community center survey, and conduct
it by phone.
3. Council has asked us to examine funding possibilities for a community activity center. Most recent facilities
such as those in New Brighton and Maplewood have used fund balances to build these facilities. At
Monday's meeting, I hope to have some more information on the percent of operating costs that these
community centers are generating through fees and also additional information on communities that have built
community centers in the last several years. The question of using fund balances to build and operate a
community center versus asking the voters to support bond financing on this project also needs to be asked.
William W. Burns
Community Center
Page 2
The proposal that we put together several months ago on a community activity center in conjunction with
the School District #14 Community Education Center estimated building costs of about three million dollars
and operating costs of about $250,000.00 annually. The Council may want to delay making any decisions
on the community center pending the outcome of the citizens survey.
4. The issue of partnering with one or more of the school districts on a community activity center also needs
to be addressed. Preliminary figures for a facility that we provided a couple of months ago was based on
building a community center adjacent to the District #14 C.E.C. and doing some remodeling. Different
figures would be needed if we were going to have a stand alone facility or look at putting a community center
at a different site. There has been some discussion of a facility adjacent to Fridley Middle School and also
I recall at least one of the Council members talking about a facility that would be completely independent of
school district property. Before we proceed too much further, we need to know what direction the Council
would like to send us. Based on the tight financing faced by the school districts in our community, it does
not seem likely that we could rely upon significant financial support from the school districts for a community
activity center.
The most recent edition of Athletic Business Magazine has an article on community centers that I thought
you might like to read. It mentions the New Brighton center in the article.
The final issue that I see we need some direction on is wha.t ltind of time line we are going to pursue with this
project. If Council would like to see a community center, what type of expectations do they have in terms
of a planning and construction schedule. When would they like to see the doors open for operation at a
community center? At a recent National Recreation and Park Association conference session, I heard an
architect and a building manager suggest that a three-year time line is appropriate for planning, building, and
opening a community center. They both stated that it can be done in a shorter period of time, however, to
completely do the project right and gain the appropriate amount of community involvement, it generally takes
close to that three-year period.
I offer the issues above as potential discussion items for the City Council for their conference meeting on the 16th.
If there are other items that you would like to discuss or would like me to bring up, please let me know.

In an effort to provide recreation
space for residents, some cities have
linked up with school districts, colleges
and universities, sharing space in a joint
venture of sorts that allows the city to
utilize space in schools for community
recreation, but usually with the school
�etting first priority for facility usage.
Few such partnerships — with true
sharing of facilities — exist, mainly
because unless a joint city-school facil-
ity is built large enough at the outset for
both entities to have their own dedi-
cated space, community residents are
only able to utilize school facilities after
hours. Even then, athletic practices and
games place further limitations on com-
munity usage.
"From the community's aspect, that's
good, but not good enough," says Ken
Ballard, principal of Ballard'`King and
Associates, a recreation facility plan-
ning and operations consulting firm in
Aurora, Colo. "We need to go a little fur-
ther, where a community gets the bene-
fits of having its own iacility cambined
with the other benefits of being con-
nected to school buildings."
One o� �he eariy models of
school-community cooperation occur-
red in Aurora, Colo., where the city gave
the Cherry Creek School District 15
acres of land for a high school project.
The city agreed to give the school
access to four softball diamonds, a
lacrosse field and a football field for

and district also joinUy added three tecr II
nis courts to an existing six�ourt com- '�
plex, with three courts available to the
public at all times.
"It was an absolutely perfect mar-
riage," says Bruce Waldo, now director
of recreation for the city of Shaker
Heights, Ohio, who spearheaded the
project in Aurora in the mid-1970s. '"The
school even set aside an office so 1
could have a supervisor in the building
to manage recreation programs. It was
an arrangement that both the school
board and the city were very happy
with. We estimated in late 1970 dollars,
both the school district and the city
saved S2 million. All of those facilities
the school district was building became
accessible to the city at the time the
city needed them the mosL°
According to other city park and
recreation directors who share facilities
with schools, there are definitely pros
and cons.
"At times it gets frustrating because
school activities come before your
activities," says Ronald Kidd, director of
Washington County (Md.) Recreation
and Parks. Since 1988, Washington
County residents have shared the
85,OOasquaz�foot Athletic Recreation
Community Center (ARCC� with stu-
dents at Hagerstown Junior College. Stu-
dents and faculty get �irst priority at the
center, although residents have dedi-
cated usage of the facility four nights a
week for community activities. ,
"We use it for 75 percent of our activi-
ties,° says Kidd. "Before we got the facil-
ity, we didn't have anything other than
the schooLs, so this really hit us in the
right spot. School activities come
before ours, but other than that, it's
worked out pretty well " -
The situation is much the same for
the city of Spearfish, S.D., which utilizes
the Donald E. Young Sports and Fltness
Center at Black Hills State University.
The city decided to shaze a Eacility with
the college when an outdoor city pool
needed extensive repafrs. Instead of
repairing it, the city contributed the
money toward the Young Center, which
includes both a competltive and leLsure
pool, as well as gymnasiums and Htness
center azeas.
"It was a way to llnk up with them to. `
get a pool built at a cheaper cost," says ��a
Keith Hepper, parks, recreation and �
forestry superintendent for the dty of �
Spearf'�.sh. "It's Nce to have your own
facility and you have a lot more control
over it, but cost�nrise, we could not have
bullt a.facility such as that ;= s;; -
'The downside is, it's a college fac3llty �
and it isn't open 24 hours a day. We're .
aiways worldng around their use." :; -
That's a situation college, county-and
city officials hope to avoid when a
110,004�square foot recreation complex
opens in 1998 af the Prince WiWam insti-
tute, a' new campus of George Mason
University being built in Piince William,
Va. Some years ago, both the city of '
Manassas and Prince William County
were planning to build recreation com-
plexes within three miles of each other,
and then the iecession hit and "nobody
was going to build anything," says John _
Schofield, Prince William's assistant
public works�director ' . . ,
="We felt that it was going to be at
Ieast another decade before the county
would be in a position to build anot}�er
recreation center, and the city was
probably In the same boat,"•says
Scho6eld. "We went into the agreement
lmowing that each player brings some-
thing different to the tabie and you
aren't going to have the �eedom you'd
have if you did it yourseif.". ,�. ,.
The facility will serve aU three enti-
ties (city, county and university) and
include a 50-meter pool with spectator
seating for. 500, a leisure pool, two bas-
ketball courts;�racquetball eouits, an
elevated track, large. aerobics and
�weight/card3ovasculaz areas; a day�care
center and meeting rooms.. -; � :

indoor center that was twice as large as
one we could build 10 years �-om now at
a price at least 50 percent cheaper than
if we built our own — those advantages
made up for the disadvantages of not
controll[ng the center," says Scho6eld.
A 20-year agreement between the
city, county and university outlines how
the facility will operate. The university
will borrow the money for the facility,
own and operate it and hire all staff,
while an advisory group composed of
siu members hom the county, four from
the city and two from the university will
oversee the operation of the center,
SchoHeld says. .
"We have fairly strong and clear lan-
guage in the agreement that says there
will be equal access to any part of the
facility for any resident of the city or
county, or any member of the student
body or faculty at George Mason," he
says. "We've tried to think through the
major pro�amming issues we will face
and set up an appeals process so that if
one member is not happy with the
amount of access, they can raise it
through their advisory group."
Another mechanism designed to
ensure equal access has elected offi-
cials from the city and county correct-
ing imbalances in usage when they
review- the budget each year. IYs esti-
mated that about two-thirds of the peo-
ple who will use the center will be
county residents, about 30 percent will
be city residents and the rest will be
staff and students of GMU.

"Even at full development,° Schofield
says, `�ve don't think the university is
going to have more than 8 to 10 percent
Iof the total use, so we've pledged to fig
ure out what the budget is for both
operating and capital, and what we'll
get for revenue, and the county will pay
60 percent of whaYs left of the subsidy,
the city will pay its shaze and the uni-
versity will pay the remainder." Plans
are for the center to be self-supporting
after nine years.
"IYs based on the number of resi-
dents of each jurisdiction who use it,"
says Schofield, "so if our use goes up,
we'll pay more and if our use goes
down, somebody else will pay more."
There are a nvmber of
issues cities contemplating partner-
ships with school districts or colieges
must consider before entering into any
agreements — and once agreements
aze reached, all of the following shoWd
be clearly spelled out in writing.
• P�i�n�-+irs. wa9s. This is a part3c
ularly sticky issue. If your peak demand
times are the same as those of the
school or college, then both entities
must try to work out an equitable
schedulIng system. _
"Usually what that means is you'll
have to increase the size of the facility
to meet both of those needs," says Bal- .
lazd. "If the school district needs two
gymnasiums and so does the city, then
you may need to build four. You have to
plan for the needs of each of those
groups during the planning stages. .�:.. _
"Problems occur when you decide
you each need two and you build two,.
and then one group ends up getting
inched out during prime times when
they really need it and there's not
enough facility available."
• Cos� swinys. One misconception
many cities have is that there will be a
huge cost savings because they won't
have to build nearty as much. �
"There will be some cost savtngs, but
it's not anywhere close to half or even
75 percent You still have to build for
both groups of users," Ballard says. =: F.:=::1
• slwrteg �eeilNi�s. Another coin- ;
mon misconception is that support !
facilitles llke locker rooms and paridng :
lots can be shared, but that's often not '
the case. It's better to have separate �
lockers for publlc use because of their
htgher expectations. In addItion,'high {
school students usually store _items id �
their lockers permanendy, leaving few ;
lockers open for public use. ` �'�.�,'�

` • aMKte9 sNe4. Another problem
is that all too often, schools need a com-
peUtive pciol or. gymnasium space wIth
seating, whtle,a dty's needs likeIy are
recreational gyms and leisure pools.
The differing needs get in the way of
any ldnd of an agreement when a joint
: facility may otherw3se be very feasible �
-=`"I think it's more economical to o'per- ;
ate those two together or� one'site In '
one eomplex, but you need to build a
leisure. pool and a competitive pooI —'
and then deal with-schedullng issues," �
says Ballazd. :
IndIanapolis (s one city that has done
just that. When the school district
needed to build a new middle school on
dty properry, the city traded 30 acres of
land for the ability to add an lndoor
aquatic center = Indy tsiand — onto
the school. The cIty owns and operates
the buildIng, which has a separate
entrance and lockes rooms and
includes a thre�lane, 2�yard pooi, a
therapeutic pool and a zero-depth
leisure pooI with a sllde, swim channd
and play equipment `� : ,<:. `°•: _ � �-
<`-- "We sat down with the school and
`designed it for their needs�as well as
ours," says Pat OToole, assistant direc
tor of Indy Pazks and Recreation, who
says that as part of the trade-out, the
school uses the pool primarily for phys
ed classes, while the city uses one of
the school's gymnasiums, a wrestling
room, the home economics area, and
arts and crafts rooms for its classes.

and the ability to come in and build on
our property, but we also traded the
usage," says OToole. "We sit down once
a month and go through the schedule
and if anything comes up, we talk."
The city also uses the school's out
door facilities — a four-field softball
complex, football field, four soccer
fields, a track and outdoor basketball
courts, which the city upgraded where
necessary to meet the requirements of
adult leagues:
'"I'he bottom line is if we went out and
built all those facilIties without this part
nering idea, it would have cost us $10
miWon. We naw have use of $10 million
worth of amenities and it cost us $2 mil-
Iion," says OToole.
A second joint facility, Pike's Creek, is
currentiy being planned in the Pike
Township section of Indianapolis. When
the city found it was looldng at building
an outdoor aquatic center in Pike Town-
�
f . ; .
ship at about the same time the town- ,
ship was looldng for a poo! facility for
three new middle schools, the city and _
district joined forces. • -.,. : ,:, . ...
"- "The school had already solidified �
53.5 million to build the pool and we '
had to find our funding, but we were
looldng in the neighborhood of S3 mil-
lion," says OToole. "We combined bud-
gets and through a lot of negotlations,
the way it turned out is we'll design it
together and it'll go on the corner of
their campus, which is in a prime loca� ',
tion one block from a ma�or freeway." .,
The facility will include indoor com-
petitive and leisure pools dIvided by

locker rooms, as well as an outdoor
family aquatic center. The competitive '
pool will be used primarily by the three
schools, but all the pooLs wiU be owned ''
by the city, and revenue from the out- II
' door pool wili be used to offset the
expenses of the indoor pools.
.°What happens is it deletes any oper�'
tionai budget the school would have,"
says OToole. "In essence, by allowing us
to co-build on their site, build what they
need and let them approve it, they'll give
us the use of their 33S million, but they
won't have a 3150,000�200,000 operattng
budget year after year »
'°� '�f1�[ �1�: ��C� �S tired.,
of seeing a school district go out for a
:' bond Lssue to build a new high school
and the city turn around at the same
time and ask for money to build a
recreation center," Ballard says. "How
come both of these governmental enti-
ties aze doing what the public views as
the same thing, and nat getting
together to maximize the community's
resources?
"IYs amazing to me how many times
the two entities aze not even communi-
cating," says Ballard, who cites a school
recently built in Louisiana as an exam-
ple. `"They built the gyms in the middle
of a school and they won't let the city
come in and use them because they'd
have access to the whole buiiding. Why
didn't somebody figure out that they
needed to build this so they could still
give access to the genera! public?"
On the other hand, says Shaker
Heights' Waldo, "There are always peo-
ple who say, 'Why can't we build one
gymnasium that will satisfy the needs of
both parties?' There's an obvious answer
to that — it won't work for both partfes.
I have huge needs for recreation pro-
gramming during the daytime hours.
We can't do that in school facilities, and
school personnel would be the first to
agree on that. We get four hours of
access to that ldnd of a facility when we
need 18 hours."
"Cooperative efforts now are about
the only way you're going to get any-
thing," says Washington County's Kidd.
"All the funds have really taken a whack
and Tm sure it's the same all over."
The problem is there's still little his-
tory on how projects can successfully be
done, and everybody is a little leery of
the steps to take to enter into an a�rre�
ment with a school district or college.
"The diificult part of getting these
partnerships going is there is a lot of
hostility because everyone is looking
out for their own best interests," says
John Lawrence, leisure services man-
ager for the Sunnyvale (Calif.) Parks and
Rec Department. "It's hard to step back
and say, if you want to keep your job,
then you have to look at what is best for
the community. And what's best for the
comrivanity, particulariy in these times
of very difficult funding, is to combine
� your efforts and work together." ■

Guidelines for Labor Negotiations
October 11, 1995
��
�
I have been contacted by the representatives of the Police and Public Works
Maintenance unions to beg�n negotiations for labor agreements covering 1996 and
possibly 1997. So far I have in mind � the following guidelines from budget
discussions for 1996:
For All Unions
1. Ma�rimum increase of 2.0 percent on wage rates for 1996. Would
consider +2.0% for 1996 and +2.0% for 1997.
2. No increase on the maximum contribution toward insurance
a. for dependent coverage: $345 per month
b. for single coverage: $210 per month
3. No increase in Option B of the Flexible Benefit Plan: $165 per month
For the Police Union
Regardless of the outcome of the current arbitration for the 1995 contract, I
will propose a cap on educational assistance of $2,250 per employee per year
with an e�ansion from tuition only to include books and class related fees
such as lab fees.
There might be a need to adjust the monthly supplement for corporals or
investigators depending on the situation.
For the Public Works Union
We might have to negotiate the consequences of the federal drug testing
regulations for employees required to have a Commercial Driver's License
(CDL). Although the federal regulations are not negotiable, we might have
to negotiate the disciplinary consequences for violation of the regulations, such

as suspension without pay or dismissal. We don't want to be in the position
where the law says that the maintenance person can't drive a vehicle but we
have to keep that person on the job in a non-driving capacity at the same pay.
It has to be clear that if the person can't drive, s/he is unable to perform one
of the essential job functions and cannot continue to work in any other
capacity. I get conflicting information from the "e�erts" on this point, but
we want to be sure to have it nailed down in the 1996 contract.
For the Firefighters' Union
Issues that were discussed in recent years were e�rtra pay for fire motor
operator, more than ten hours of pay for each holiday, and increase of the
minimum call-back pay from one hour to two hours. I will resist any change
in these items.
The current uniform allowance is $375 per year. Once again I will propose
either no increase or the City provides uniforms as needed.
I would be happy to discuss any of these items with you at greater length at your
convenience.

The Metropolitan Livable Communities Act
The Metropolita� Livable Communities Act was enacted in June, 1995 by the
legislature to address a number of housing and economic developmerrt issues which
have been discussed in the legislature for the past 2- 3 ye�ars. The Act creates three
"accounts" which communities may attempt to receive money for specific purposes.
In order to be eligible to receive these funds, c:ommunities must pass a resolution
electing to participate in the Metropolitar� Livable Communities Program.
What is in it for us?
Participating in the program would achieve the following:
1. Access to three funding sources: -
A. Local Housing Incentives accourrt program {$'! -$2 million available per
Y�
B.
C.
Tax Base Revrtalization acxount program ($6.5 million per year�
The Livable Communities Demonstration account ($4.6 million per year)
2. Higher scores on applications to the Minnesota Housi�g Fina�ce Agency and
the Departmerrt of Trade and Economic Developmerrt Polluted Sites Clean-Up
Pro9�•
3. Participation could be defined as "compliance" with the requiremerrt.s of the
settler�nent agreement executed this past summer with the Sylvan Oaks Tenant
Association.

October 12, 1995
Page 2
4. By supporting the philosophy of the Livable Communities Act now, it would
help the City to establish itself for future issues relating to neighbofiood
improvement or housing issues which may be discussed by the legislature or
the Metropolitan CounciL
5. Because the program is a votuntary program, the City may elect to participate
or not participate on an annual basis.
What if we don't participate?
If the City elects not to participate, the following would occur:
The City would receive lower scoring on any funding applications to the
Metropolitan Housing Finance Agency or Department of Trade and Economic
Development.
2. If a majority of other cities participate in the program, Fridley may be perceived
as one of the few that are not cooperating in the effort to build "tivabie
communities". � .
3, if we do decide to participate in the program at a later-time, the City must
estabiish that it has spent its "affordabie and life cycle housing opportunities
amount" since 1996. The 1996 amount for the City is $3�103. The amourrt will
accumulate over time. Tax increment financing is an eligible fund for the City
to designate as its share.
4. If the City does not participate, then it is not eligible to apply for funds in the
three acxounts that were established under the Livable Communities Act
What happens if we pass a resolution to participate in the Act?
The City must decide to participate prior to November 15 of each year. What
happens next is the following:
1. The Livable Communities Act requires the Metropolitan Council to negotiate
with each City to est�ablish affordable and life cycle housing goals that are
consisterrt with the policies of the Metropolitan Council. The goals are based
on the "benchmark analysis" that Metropolitan Council staff has already
completed. The City of Fridley is in compliance with all of its benchmarks;
therefore, negotiation with xhe Metropolitan Council would probably be based
on goals that would senre "to maintain" the City's compliance.
l.ivable Communities Act
October 12, 1995
Page 3
2. By June 30, 1996� the City must adopt an action plan which implements the
negotiated goals. The format of the actio� plan can be modeled after the
Housing chapter of the City's Comprehensive Plan. The Act do� not require
the Metropolitan Council to approve the action plan, but permits the
Metropolitan Council to commerrt on the plan's content i� relation to the goais
that have been estabiished. The goals are intended to be long term. and
beginning in 1998, the City's progr�s toward the goals wiil be monitored on
an annual basis. The goal establishmerrt is a one time occurrence and the
intent is to enc�urage the City to meet housing benchmarks. �
What are the benchmarks that the City is aareeing to?
Participating in the program would require the City to adopt six housing principles
(see attached) and agree to use the following benchmark indicators:
1. Affordability.
This is a means of ineasuring the afforclability of both home ownership and rerrtal
housing. For home ownership� the index in each community is based on the
percentage of a singie family home below $115�000 (this assumes that a household
with 80� of the median income or $41 �000 per year couid afford a home priced at
$115,000). For rental housing� the index is based on the percentage of rental units
below $5()0 per morrth. In Fridley's case, we exceed both of these benchmarks.
2. �ife cycie housing.
This is a means of m�suring the types of housing choices available within a
community. The index is the percentage of housing units which are non-single family�
including ali multiple family, condominium, townhome, and manufactured housing
units. The owner/rerrter mix is the percentage of own�-ocxupied housing units
(regardless of type) and the percentage of rental housing units. Again� the City meets
and exceeds the benchmarks. Efforts to create addi�onal housing for empty nesters
and seniors and other housing types is exempiified in the Southwest Quadr•ant are
good examples of the City's effort to meet this benchmark.
3. Density index.
This index examines the dens'ity pattems within a community in terms of #he numb�
of units per acre. The index is based on the City's zoning ordinance requirements.
The City's current single family lot size for single family and multiple family properties
is within benchmark guidelines. The Metropolitan Council wants to encourage
Livable Communities Act
October ) 2, 1995
Page 4
compact dense development within the Metropolitan urban service area as much as
possible.
What is the purpose of the three "accounts'7
To provide incentives to communities, the Act creates three new programs, including:
1. The tax base revitalization acxourrt.
This account provides grants for polluted site clean-up. Funds can be used in
combination with other environmental programs� such as those offered by DTED.
This may be a worthwhile acxount for the City for redevelopment aativities which are
intended for commercial and industrial developmerrt (i.e.� automotive or other site
clean-up). The clean-up funds c�r� not only be used for redeveloping properties, but
for rehabilitating commercial and industriai properties to remove asbestos and other
hazardous materials.
2. The livable communities demonstration account.
This acxount provides loans or grants to communities which create innovative
projects that link housing, transi� and job locations. The purpose of this account is to
encourage communities to coordinate these three facets into a redevelopmerrt
project. An exampie in Fridley may be the redevelopment of the Frank's Used Car
site since it is located on a major Vansit corridor and other services in the area.
3. Local housing incerrtives acxount
This account provides grants to help cities work toward affordable and life cycie
housing goals. Because the City is meeti�g its benchmark, the City may not be given
top priority for funding for housing projects; however� Metropoli#an Council staff has
stated that an application for rehabilitation projects to preserve and improve existing
housing would be given serious consideration. The intent of this account is pdmarily
intended for the second and third ring suburbs to come into compliance with
affordable housing guidelines.
Conclusion
After reviewing the information from the Metropolitan Council and talking with other
communities (a majority of communities will be participating), it seems that the
advantages of the program outweigh the outcomes of �ot participating. Of critical
importance to the City is the ability to receive funds from MHFA. For example, if this
Uvable Communities Act
October 12. 1995
Page 5
program were in place and ACCAP had made applications to MHFA for the leas�old
coopera�ve project in Hyde Park, there may have been a negative consequence ff the
City was not participating in the program. Second� we are atl aware of dwindling
financial resources. Participating in the program will give the City the ability to access
three other funding sources which could be used to offset our tax increment
expenditures.
Unless otherwise directed, the model resolution included in this packet will be placed
on the October 23, 1995 City Council agenda for consideration.

LIVABLE CO S QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
1. What is the Metropolitan Livable Communities Act?
The Metropolitan Livable Communities Act ("Act") was enacted in June 1995 and is the Legislature's
attempt to address various issues facing the seven-county metropolitan area. The Act establishes a
Metropolitan Livable Communities Fund which consists of three accounts: the Tax Base Revitalization
Account; the Livable Communities Demonstraxion Account; and the Local Housing Incentives Accoun�
Metropolitan municipalities are not required to participate in the programs unde.r the Ac� but the Act _
provides incentives and funding to those municipaZities that do participate.
2. What is the incentive to participate? :
The benefzts are clear. Cities, towns anc� in some cases, counties have access to resources that will
improve their communities and neighborhoods In addition, the legislation puts local tatits of govern-
ment in the driver's seat. Communities can not only choose whether to participaie; they also have
flexibility in deternzining how they're going to use the resour+ces available.
3. What is the incentive to provide lower-oost housing in our community?
Affondable housing is an investment in communities and their resid.ents It fulfills a co»unitment to
young families, si►cgle people and older residents that they can find a home they can a,�`'ord in the com-
munity of their choice.
4. What are "affordable" housing and "life-cycle" housing?
Housing is "affordable" if it costs no more than 30 percent of a family's income. For ownership hous-
ing this income amount is 80 percent of inedian, an amount that in 1994 could afford a home costing
approzimately $11 S, 000. For rental housing this income is SO per�ent of inedian. In 1990 this was
approximately $S00 per month.
,
"Life-cycle" housing refers to housing available for people at all stages of their lives, o,,�`'ering a choice
and variety of housing types and cost to accomanodate people's changing needs and Pr�eferences as their
incomes and circumstances change.
5. What are the affordable and life-cycle housing opportunities amount?
The Affordable and Life-Cycle Housing Opportunities Amount ("ALIiOA amount") is an amount.
established by formula in the Ac� that a participatircg municipality must spend to create afj`ordable and
life-cycle housing or to maintain existing a. ffvrdable and li, fe-
cycle housing. A participating municipality's ALHOA mnount is established each year.
6. Does the ALHOA amonnt have to be a property taz levy?
No. The ALHOA amount can be derived from a levy, or it can be derived from fundsfr�vm another
source. Regardless of the source of funds for the municipadity's AL�IOA amoun� a particiParinB �munici-
pality that did not meet its negotiated c�`or�dable and life-
cycle housing goals, and did not spend 85 pe�+cent of its AI.HOA amount to create a,,�`ordable and life-
cycle housing opporturcities in the previous year, must distribute the entire ALHOA amount to a IocaZ
housing and redevelopment authority to create af,j�ordable and life-cycle housing opportunities in the
municipality, or to the Metropolitan Council for distribution through the Local Housing Incentives
Program.
7. If my municipality elects by November 15,1995, to participate in the I.ocal Housing Incen-
tives Account Program, must the municipality spend an ALHOA amount in calendar ye�ar 1996?
No. Because of various ti»ung provisions in the Act, the AIIFIOA amount requirement does not apply
until your municipality's election to participate in the LocaZ Housing Incentives Account Program made
by November 1 S, 1996, for calendar year 1997.
8. If my municipality elects �to participate in the Local Housing Incentives Account Program
by November 15,1995, but is unable to agree on housing goaLs with the Metropolitan Council,
must the municipality participate in the program?
No. A municipality is not purti�ipating � tJ� J�cal_Housing In�entives Account Program unless iwo
conditions have been met.• �
a. __ _-- The municipality has elected to participate in the program; and __.. _.
b• . The Metropolitan Council and the municipality have negotiated and agreed on affordable
and life-cycle housing goals for the municipality.
If the municipality and t,yce Metropolitan Council do not successfully negotiate housing goals, your
municipality mczy__not participate in the I,ocal Housing Incentives Account Program.
9. Must my municiPalitY P��Pate in the Local Housing Incentives Account Program? �
No. - Participation in the program is voluntary, but a miuiicipality ihat �es not participate may at some
later time elect to participate irl the program, However, a municipalitj, which later elects to participate
must establish that it has spent�or agrees to spend on a, ff'ondabte and Zife_cycle housing an crmouri� ,_,
equivaleni to what it would have spent on a,,�`'ordable cmd life-cycle y�ousing y� go� been established
for the� period in which the municipality was not participating.
10. If my municipality has met its housing goals in the previous calendar Yeai', maY mY munici-
P�t3' Participate in the Local Housing Incentives Acconnt Program? .
Yes. However, your municipality will not be eligible to receive grants froric the Local Housing Incentives
Account Program if it met its affordable and tife_cycle housing goals your municipality still tiuill be
eligible for grants and loans under the Liyable Comm�nities Demonstration Account and Tax Base
Revitalization Accouni programs
11• What if my municipality chooses not to participate in the Locai Housing iocentives Ac-
count Program?
Murticipalities that elect not to participate in the Local Housing Incennves Account Program are not
eligible to participate in the Tax Base RevitaliZation Account and Liyable Communities Demonstration
Account programs urider the Act. The Metropolitan Council is. required by the Act to take into account
your municipality's participation in the Local Hous� Incentives Account Pro�ram when makinQ
�� er �ry, funding decistons. In addition, your municipality will not be eli ible to a t
S PP y for�unds
under the Department of ?'rad.e and Economic Development's polluted sites clean-up program if your
municipality is not participating in the Local Housing Incentives Account Program.
12. If my municipality elects to participate in the Local Housing Incentives Account Program,
but does not have the capacity to create additional affordable and life- -�---
cycle housing opportunities, can my municipality give its ALHOA amounts to other municipalities
to meet negotiated housing goals?
Yes. A municipality that has negotiated housing goals, but might not have adequate resources to create
or maintain affordable and life-cycle housing opportunities still could be considered a participating mu-
nicipaliry. However, the municipality would be required to distribute its ALHOA amount to the Metro-
politan Council for distribution to other participating municipalities or distribute its ALHOA amount to a
local housing and redevelopment authority for creating affordable and life-cycle housing opportunities .
within the municipaliry. The Act permits municipalities to enter into agreements with adjacent municipali-
ties to cooperatively provide affordable and life�ycle housing. The Metropolitan Council will work with
municipalities to help municipalities create affordable and life-cycle housing opporlunities and avail
themselves of the incentives and funding available under the Act and from other sources.
13. If my mwricipality is using local resources to make payments on a mortgage for an afford-
able or life-cycle housing opportunity created prior to the Act, can these resonroes count toward
ezpenditures of the municipatity's ALHOA amount?
Yes. As long as the use of the funds is directly related to your municipality's efj`�orts to meet .its a,�`'ord-
able and life-cycle housing goals, these local resources can be considered an expendsture of ALHOA
amounts.
14. Are the goais for a�ordable and li%-cycle housing, as prnposed bY the Metropolitan Coan-
cil, achievable?
The goals proposed by the Metropolitan Council are intended to be "lottg-term" goals. Your m.unici-
pality will establish an action plan that identifies the steps your municipaliry intends to take to move
toward its long-range goals. Beginning in 1998, your municipality's annual progress in meeting its
negotiated affordable and life-cyclehousing goals will be measured against the annual goals your
municipality sets forth its action plan. Progress toward the goals will depend on private marketplace
efforts, the availabiliry of affordable and life-cycle housing resources and the use of local controls to
create an environment to meet goals.
15. Do the Metrnpolitan Couacil and a municipality negotiate and set housing goais $nnua�y�
No. The Act envisions negotiated housing goals as a one-time process. That is why the goals are long
term in nature. The Metropolitan Council will propose a�`'ordabte and life-cycle housirig goals thai
encourage your municipality to uddress key housing benchmarks.
16. After the Metropoiitan Council and a municipality negotiate and set affordable and life-
cycle housing goals for the municipality, what happens next?
The municipality mustprepare an action plan that describes how it intends to meet its negotiated goals.
The municipality has unhl June 30, 1996, to submit the action pian to rhe Metropolitan Council.
17• Does the Metropolitan Council have to approve the action plan?
The Act does not require the Metropolitan Council to approve a mraiicipulity s acnon plan, However,
the Metropolitan Council wi11 comment on the plan's content in relation to the negotiated goals that
have been establishea� and it will attempt to identify poteniia.l resour�ces available to the municipality to
help the municipality meet its negotiated affordable urui life-cycle housing goals
18. What should the action plan look like?
The .suggested fornzat will be modeled after the one used

SUBJECT: Paul Harstad's Attendance at October 16, 1995
Meeting
I wanted to clarify the circumstances regarding Paui Harstad's atter
Councii meeting on Monday. Staff did not invite him. He contacte�
heard what Michele had told the poterrttial buyers of the lots. The t
advised that the City would not issue a building permit until the issi

I advised Harstad that the purpose of the Council's discussion was to taik about the
Council's optior�s about the property, not to determine if a building permit is to be
issued. In fact, I acknowledged it was a public meeting, but encou ged Harstad to
permit the Council to discuss its options and legal ramifications.
Harstad said the fill on the property may be able to be used for a h use slab. I
advised Harstad that the fill placed on the lot after the 1986 permit placed on the
lot without a pennit in the first place, and that the Council was not oing to ignore
that fact. He co�tinues to maintain that the filling was completed thout
authorization, but I advised him that the owner is still responsible r complying with
the City's ordinances. I also asked for his cooperation for removin the illegal fill, and
if he did not cooperate, the Council may direct staff to pursue legal action.
I told Harstad the meeting was a public meeeting, but no neig
occurred since the purpose of the meeting was to advise the
options before further discussion with anyone.
Harstad stated that he conferred with his father and that his father

Finally, I advised Harstad that there are reaAy two issues: 1) should the City pursue
legal action on the property regarcling the fill; and 2) what are the options for
development or no developmerrt on the property.
The front yard setback variance is sstill tabled� and once issue #1 is resolved, Harstad
needs to either submit a leiter withdrawing the application or finish the variar�e
process.
No matter what happens, staff will take whatever steps Council would like to see
occur with the neighborhood. I hope Harstad's atter�dance wili not be perceived as
"imbalanci�g" the process. My inteM was to analyze the scope of options for the
Counci! for discussion only prior to meeting with anyone affected by this case.

Mr. Peterson's review began with the 1977 photoqra h. This photo

calculated due to the oblique nature of the photoqraph. In late
1987, fill activity was also observed, however, it is not clear
that the fill impacted additional area or if it occurred over
existing fill from 1986. The wetland had been reduced to .3
acres.
Evidence of fill was also observed in the 1989 and 1991 photos.
However, this fill occurred over previous fill areas, and did not
include further impact to the wetland. No land alteration
permits were issued for this activity. No fill was observed in
the 1993 photos, although eyewitnesses reported dumpinq of fill
on the property.
Adverse Impact?
The fill placed on the property from 1989-1993 did no displace
any additional wetland area, and was placed in the same location
on the lot as previous fill activity. To say that the fill
activity in this time frame caused seepage into basements or
caused other groundwater effects would not be accurate. If it
caused surface water impacts, then the City�s case is further
improved.
The fill placed on the property after 1986 was done without a
permit. Based on this fact, a misdemeanor could be charged and
the City could petition the court to require removal of the fill
placed on the property after 1986. Paul Harstad indicated in a
phone call that he and his father were not aware of the filling,
especially in 1993. Based on the aerial photo evidence, the City
has leverage to negotiate and prosecute for the removal of the
fill. Removing the fill, however, does not solve the problem of
future use of the property.
Council Options
Staff has identified three alternatives, their estimated costs,
and their pros and cons, for the Council to consider:
A. Pursue Legal Action
An action could be filed to require removal of the fill
placed on the property after 1986. Fill authorized under
the 1986 land alteration permit would still remain on the
lot. A new owner would need to determine the
appropriateness of the remaining fill and how much, if any
additional fill would be required to construct a dwelling on
the _ lot . _.
This does not, however, resolve any issues pertaining to
groundwater impacts. A specific hydrologic study for the
area, including a historical analysis of the rainfall and

the cost for this analysis could be $20,000-3
B. Allow Construction on the Filled Portion

This option poses no financial impact to the ity, and in
fact the City stands to gain via the tax incr ase created by
the new dwelling. The neighborhood also qain aesthetically
and environmentally with the improved wetland.
If this option is chosen, the variance reques by Mr.
Harstad should either be withdrawn or final a tion taken by
the Council. The variance was tabled by the ouncil at its
June 20, 1994 meeting.
C. Acquire and Restore
In this option, the City would acquire, eithe
negotiation or condemnation, both lots. The

This option provides a win-win situation for both the City
and the neighborhood in terms of aesthetics, environmental
impacts, and industrial development. There are few, if any
locations in the City remaining for wetland mitigation
sites. It is esti.mated that this option would cost between
$10,000-30,000, depending on the method of acquisition and
the timing of the restoration.
Paul Harstad intends to attend Monday night's meeting.

Ms. McPherson_stated that at the hearing befo e the Planning

Lot 5. She stated that staff has begun a prelimina investigation
using aerial photographs which determined that new fill was placed
on the lot in 1989. Some additional fill occurre on Lot 6 prior
to 1993. She stated that the City's consultant i attempting_to
locate additional photos.to determine what fill occurred after
1986.
Ms. McPherson stated that staff recommends that Co ncil adopt the
resolution which states the reason for denial f the wetland
replacement plan.
Ms. McPherson stated that the petitioner believes that Exemption
24 from the state statute applies in this� case. he then quoted
this section.
Ms. McPherson stated that staff has made a determin tion that this
�� exemption does not apply. She stated the ori inal plat was

and the filling did not occur to the extent the permit allowed.

placed there iri 1986, so the amount of new fill�observed in 1989
photographs can be calculated.. She stated that the south edge of
Lot 6 was filled between 1989 and 1993. .
Councilman Schneider asked the City Attorney if he felt the�City
had a valid case under Exemption 24.
Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, stated that he felt the information
given by staff is defensible but a good argument can be�made that
this exemption does not apply. He stated that, however, this is
a new statute, and he could not predict the outcome. He stated
that he �agreed with staff's recommendations and- did not believe the
applicant met the requirements of the state statute, as he admitted
when this issue was before the Planning Commission.
Mr. Paul Harstad, the petitioner, stated that City staff has done
an outstanding job and has been very thorough in following through
with the state's requirements. He stated that their proposal does
not meet the 2:1 replacement ratio, but there is no more room to
mit.igate unless they tear down trees on the property.
Mr. Harstad stated that in regard to Exemption 24, the fact that
these lots were not developed prior to 1986 is�irrelevant, and they
are-not being allowed to develop them because of a state law. He
stated that there were fifteen lots that were exempt from assess-
ments. They were considered unbuildable, and these are two of the
lots. He asked the status of the other thirteen lots.
Ms. McPherson stated that of the fifteen lots, four are vacant, and
the remaining eleven were built on. She stated of these eleven
lots, all but two were developed between 1975 and 1979.
Mr. Harstad stated that it appears there are a number of facts that
indicate the lots are buildable. He stated that one of those facts
is that, in 1986, they acquired a permit to fill both Lots 5 and
6 and at that time, chose to €ill Lot 5 to make it buildable. He
stated that due to economic reasons, they chose not to build on
that lot: He stated that there are clearly issues of drainage, and
the impact the filling caused to the adjacent property owners.
Mr. Harstad stated that Council will either have to approve or deny �

is to appear before the state..Iie stated that the will move ahead

TO MINIMIZE WETI,AND IMPACT AND ALIAW THE CONSTRUCTION OF A

N.E.
Ms. McPherson, Planning Assistant, stated that these are variances
to reduce the setbacks on two lots to minimize the wetland impact
and allow construction of single family homes. She stated that the
Appeals Commission recommended denial of these variances.
Councilman Schneider stated that the Appeals Commission and staff
are recommending denial of the variances. Based on the denial of
the Wetland Replacement Plan, WR #94-01, it would make sense to
table any action on these variances, until such time as there is
a final determination as to whether staff's position on the
wetlands is upheld.
Ms. McPherson stated that Council can table this item. The
petitioner could also construct a smailer home which meets the
setback requirements and the 0-4 regulations of the Wetland
Conservation Act. �
Mr_ Herrick, City Attorney, stated that the proper action miqht be
to table this request, as he felt action on the variances would be

Ms. McPherson, Planning Assistant, stated that this is a request
for a variance to allow construction of loading docks facing the
public right-of-way. She stated that the petitioner submitted a
letter in response to the stipulations, which indicated t�ey are
willing to comply with stipulations one through five, but could not
commit to converting the parking lot adjacent to I-694 to green
space and landscaping.
Councilwoman Jorgenson stated that there are several other areas
in the parking lot to the north of the building that need patching,
and she was concerned about the overall appearance of the entire
parking area. She also felt that the outside appearance of the
building was becoming less attractive.
Mr. Dean Nikont, representing Holiday Companies, stated that he did
not know the status for maintenance on the parking lot. He stated
that they certainly wanted the property to have a good appearance,
and there is a lot of work being done inside the store. He stated
that re-striping and general cleanup is done on an annual basis,
and they have a Iandscaping plan.

Deaz Michele:
As requested, Peterson Environmental Consulting, Inc. has analyze
wetland filling within Lots 5 and 6 of the development located in the n
of the Matterhorn Drive/East Danube Road intersection in Fridley, Mir
understanding that the purpose of this investigation is to determine the �
of past filling activities in relation to the passage of the Minnesota Wetl
Act of 1991 (WCA). Our methodology and findings are set forth below.
METHODOLOGY
In order to gain insight as to the amount of wetland originally exisl
property, we analyzed the SCS Soil Survey for Anoka County (1
Wetland Inventory (NWI) map for the azea, which is based on 1980 �
The subsequent history of wetland filling activities on the sub
investigated based on historic aerial photographs obtained from a nur
the years 1986, 1987, 1989, 1991 and 1993. Overlays of visible fill

�C� �c�il Survey for Anoka Countv �
We reviewed the SCS Soil Survey for Anoka County (1977) to determine
of hydric soils on the subject property (Figure 1). This portion of Fridley
developed by the SCS and soils were not mapped. However, the aerial t
survey provided some indication as to the distribution of wetland acreag
area. This photo base is not of a large enough scale to accurately measw
size; however, by scaling the wetland appears to be between 0.6 and 0.7 a

The NWI map (Figure 2) indicated a small wetland in the same locati

� We were not able to locate a direct overhead, to-scale photograph of subject property
for the year 1986. However, we were able to obtain a color aerial �o lique photograph
taken on October 9, 1986 which clearly shows active filling/grading ctivity occurring
� along the eastern margin of the subject wetland (Figure 3). This otograph clearly
shows a tan colored, scarified azea with no vegetation covering the north end of the
previously identified wetland. Because this photo is oblique, neither e acreage being
� graded nor the amount of wedand filled cannot be accurately measure . However, some
wetland filling is clearly evident since the SCS Soil Survey aerial ph to base indicates
wetland immediately adjacent to East Danube Road where the grading i occurring.

1987 Conditions
� The November 10, 1987 aerial photograph we obtained is the largest scale and highest
quality photo we found (Figure 4). This photo shows fresh grading ac 'vity that was not
� apparent in the 1986 photo. This is evident due to the presence of v sible tread mazks
from a bulldozer or other tracked machine; since the 1987 photo was en very late in
the construction season, we do not believe these tread marks represe t remnants of the
� 1986 construction season. It is unclear whether the 1987 grading w done entirely on
top of pre-existing fill or if it included new wetland fill. The lack of s ale on the eazlier
1986 photo does not allow for a precise comparison of fill distribution 'th the later 1987
� photo. However, the subject wetland has been reduced to about 030 ac e in size from the
approximately 0.6 to 0.7 acres visible on the SCS Soil Survey aerial ph to base.

1989 Conditions
The May 1989 photograph shows new filling that was not visible in the
(Figure 5). Fill piles are readily evident along the east edge of the ar�
years. It is unknown whether this new filling occurred in 1988 or 19!
appear to have involved any new wetland fill.

1991 Conditions
The fill limits visible in the 1991 aerial photograph appeaz to be identical to
in the 1989 photograph (Figure 6), though some new fill piles appear to havE
over pre-existing fill. Some revegetation of the previously filled area is al:
visible. Thus, it appears that no new wetland filling occurred between the 19

The 1993 aerial photograph shows the same distribution of fill as is eviden in the 1989
photograph (Figure 7). The previously mentioned fill piles appear to have been graded
flat and show signs of partial revegetation. However, it does not appear that ew wetland
filling occurred between 1989 and 1993.
Summary of Filling Activity
Roughly 0.3 to 0.4 acres of wetland fill were already in place in Novem
Fresh grading on the previously filled area was visible in 1987; however,
appear that any of this grading activity extended beyond the limits of the fi:
1986. Between 1987 and 1989 additional fill was placed on the site, but agai
appear to have extended beyond the limits of previously filled wetland. T'h
placed fill to the north appears to have been flattened out by 1989 but does �
have been extended farther into the wetland. Both the 1991 and 1993 photos
no further wetland fill had occurred since 1989. Previously scarified areas a�
substantially re-vegetated since 1989.

All of the wetland filling and grading observed on the subject property app ars to have
occurred prior to 1989. Though the 1991 and 1993 photos indicate som additional
grading, no new wetland fill is apparent in those years. Thus, the wetland fi Is observed
on the subject property appeazs to have entirely pre-dated the passage of the CA.

SUBJECT: Continued Discussio� on Condominiums on the Southwest
Quadrant Property _
The City Council tabled discussion of whether or not to reduce the sale price on
the Southwest Quadrant property in order to construct the two cond minium
buildings. Since the City Cour�il's discussion, the Hearing Commi ioner's on the
Keefe property have made an award. Based o� this award, the City Attomey and f
have been able to determine a better estimate on what the costs wo Id be to finish
the acquisition portion of the project.
The original acquisition portion of the Southwest Quadr�nt budget
expenses to-date are as follows:
Acquisition Budget - $2,836,968
Tennenbaum - $ 375,000
Keefe - $ 272,620
Suh - $� , � pp,ppp
$1,089,348
Using a per unit acquisition cost based on the Keefe award, and a
Cherrywood Apartments, the Commissioner's award would be app
$1,313,532. The City Attomey is more comfortable that we would I
a similar award on the Cherrywood Apartments because the condi�
apartments was worse, and at best, matched that of the Keefe buil
the additional cost to the HRA would be approximately $225�000 if
Commissioner's award matched the previous per unit award.
$2,836,968. The �
that to the
able to achieve
� of the
ig. Therefore,
SW Quadrant Condominiums
October 12, 1995
Page 2
The Cherrywood Apartment owners wanted $1,800�000. A realistic rar�ge of additional
acquisition costs wouid therefore be $225,000 to $500,000. At the low end, the total
additional cost to the HRA with the condominiums is less than $1,000,000. At the
high end, it is $1,400,000.
There are three options:
1. Go ahead with the condominium construction and require an equity
participation agreemen�
2. Eliminate the senior condominiums and add additiona! townhomes.
3. Seek another developer.
A fourth option discussed at the last City Council meeting was to leave the northeast
comer of the site vacant and search for another senior housing developer, but have
Rottlund constn�ct the tovmhomes.
Should you need further information, please feel free to contact me.
