l. ORDINANCE N0. 1102 AMENDING SECTION 7.02 OF THE FRIDLEY CITY
CHARTER (TAXATION AND FINANCE):
Mr. Burns, City Manager, stated that this. amendment replaces a
16 mill limit on the dollar value of assessed propert�Y-
valuation with language that ties property tax limits to �h_�
Consumer Price Index for the Twin Cities metropolitan area_
The State's prescribed method for calculating taxes that ���as
adopted in 1988 abandons the mill rate in favor of a new �a:{.
rate system that defies interpretation in mill rate terms.
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 8, 1997 PAGE 2
Mr. Burns stated that, in order to establish more meaningful
limits on property taxes, the proposed language would require
a public hearing and a four-fifths majority vote of the
Council to approve tax levies that increase by more than the
Consumer Price Index increase for the prior year. The first
reading of the ordinance was on August 25. Staff recommends
Council's approval for adoption on the second reading.
WAIVED THE READING AND ADOPTED ORDINANCE NO. 1102 ON THE

PROJECT N0. ST. 1997-3:
Mr. Burns, City Manag�r, stated that Barton-Aschman, the
design consultant for this project, is claiming costs for work
outside the original scope of services, due to the failure of
MnDOT to provide certain as-built drawings, and to plan
modification5 made by MnDOT. These additional services are
generally those related to storm sewer design, traffic
signalization, and street lighting. The cost for this
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 8, 1997 PAGE.4
additional work is $13,045. The Minnesota Department of
Transportation is accepting responsibility for $9,137.77 of
these costs, leaving $3,907.23 to be covered by the City. It
is staff's opinion that the costs are justified.
Mr. Burns stated it is recommended that these additional costs
be approved with the understanding that sufficient funds are
available,from Home Depot to cover the City's portion of these
costs. If approved, $13,045 will be paid to Barton-Aschman

REZONE FROM R-1, SINGLE FAMILY DWELLING, TO C-2, GENERAL
BUSINESS, IN ORDER TO ALLOW THE CONSTRUCTION OF AN EXPANDED
PARKING LOT FOR THE AMERICAN LEGION, GENERALLY LOCATED AT 1360
ONONDAGA STREET N.E. (WARD 2):
MOTION by Councilman Schneider to waive the reading of the public
hearing notice and open the public hearing. Seconded by Councilman
Barnette. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Jorgenson
declared the motion carried unanimously and the public hearing
opened at 7:45 p.m.
Mr. Hickok, i�lcaPiiing .Coordinator, stated that this is a request by
the American Legion to rezone property at 1360 Onondaga Street from
R-1, single family dwelling, to C-2, general business, in order to
allow the construction of an expanded parking lot. If this
rezoning is approved, the existing dwelling and detached garage on
tt'iiS �iG�Ci �y wiii i�E removed ar�d a parkinq lot constructed.
i�ir. riicxok sLated L'naL staff evaluated L'nis rezoning request using
� s�andard -compatibility criteri•a ..,,y�ith the proposed district,
adj acent uses, and district requirements . The proposed use is an
expanded parking ar.ea for the American Legion and is a permitted..
accessory use in a C-2 zoning district. In 1975, the City approved
a rezoning for the American Leqion property. This request ext.ends
the commercial zoninq an additional 50 feet into the residential
area and allows the American Legion to meet, their parking.
requirements. The building does not meet the side yard setback for
a C-2 district; however, the parking area meets the setback
requirements. Screening from the public right-of-way would be
provided, as an eight foot screening fence is proposed adjacent to
the residential properties. _
Mr. Hickok stated that the Planning Commission voted unanimously to
recommend approval of this rezoning. The project meets the tests
of the three evaluated criteria and staff also recommends approval
with the stipulations that (1') a Comprehensive Plan amendment shall
be approved prior to construction of the expanded parking area; and
(2) a$5,000 performance bond shall be submitted to ensure
completion of the landscaping and fencing.
Councilman Schneider stated that a letter was received in
opposition to this rezoni.ng.
MOTION by Councilman Schneider to receive the letter from James and
Teresa Hub, 1395 Onondaga Street, dated August 27, 1997. Seconded
by Councilman Billings. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor
Jorgenson declared the motion carried unanimously.
Councilman Schneider stated that he visited the site. He felt the
additional parking would improve the situation for the neighborhood
and would be a positive change. He said that Mr. and Mrs. Hub's
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL I�ETING OF SEPTEMBER 8, 1997 PAGE 7
concerns are valid, but they have nothing to do with the rezoning
issue. Their concerns are about debris, loud music, and behavior
of the patrons.
Mr. Hickok stated that Mr. and Mrs. Hub's property is located north
of and four lots from the area of the expanded parking.
Mr. Watson, Chaplain of the American Legion Post 303, stated that
they have had problems with parking and drainage. However, they
would hope to alleviate the issues pointed out in Mr. and Mrs.
Hub's letter once they have sufficient parking.
Councilman Billings stated that his neighbor's secretary lives on
Onondaga. She felt that expanding the parking lot would be good
for the neiqhborhood. ,
No other persons in the audience spoke regarding this proposed
rezoning.
MOTION by Councilman Schneider ta close the public hearing.
Seconded by Councilman Barnette. Upon a voice vote, all voting
aye, Mayor Jorgenson declared the motion carried unanimously and

OLD BUSINESS:
14. APPROVE 1997-1998 ANIMAL CONTROL CONTRACT BETWEEN THE CITY OF
FRIDLEY AND BRIGHTON VETERINARY HOSPITAL (TABLED AUGUST 25,
1997 ) :
Mayor Jorgenson removed this item.from the table. She stated that
at the last meeting there were questions regarding euthanasia.
Mr. Sallman,��Public Safety Director, informed councii that Skyline
Animal Clinic was contacted. They said that animals are euthanized
with a lethal injection of beuthanasia. They keep an animal a
minimum of seven days before it is euthanized. The Brighton Clinic
uses a euthanizing solution and keeps an animal for a minimum of
five days, sometimes lonqer.:
;
Councilman Schneider asked if an,animal is scanned for a micro chip
to determine who owns the animal.
Mr. Burns stated that staff would check to find out if this is
done.
MOTION by Councilman Barnette to approve the. 1997-1998 animal
control contract with the Brighton Veterinary Hospital. Seconded
by Councilman Schneider. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor
Jorgenson declared the motion carried unanimously.
15. RECEIVE BIDS AND AWARD CONTRACT FOR COPIER MACHINES:
Mr. Hunt, Assistant to the City Manager, stated that seven bids
were received for copier machines. One bid arrived late and was
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 8, 1997 PAGE 8
not opened. Another vendor bid on only six of the seven machines
and did not include a bid for the copier/fax machine at Springbrook
Nature Center. It is recommended, therefore, that Council only
receive the five other bids.
Mr. Hunt stated that the low bidder was Stringer, the Lanier copier
agent, at $39,922 for the seven copiers plus applicable sales tax
and the service and maintenance per copy costs. The estimated cost
for service and maintenance are $25,951 over a four-year period.
No maintenance fee is charged during the first ninety days.
However, the City pays for the toner so the cost would be slightly
less than $25,591. It is recommended that the bid be awarded to
Stringer, the low bidder, at an estimated cost of $65,872.

R-1, single family residential, to C-2, general business.
Councilman Schneider questioned if the stipulations should be

17. RESOLUTION N0. 69-1997 APPROVING A SUBDIVISION, LOT SPLIT,
L.S. #97-02, TO SPLIT A PORTION OF 7922 RANCHERS ROAD AND ADD
IT TO 7940 RANCHERS ROA.D TO ALLOW THE CONSTRUCTION OF AN
ADDITION ON LOTS 7 AND 8, BLOCK 4, UNIVERSITY INDUS�RIAI, PARK,
GENERALLY LOCATED AT 7922 AND 7940 RANCHERS ROAD N.E.
(WARD 3): .
Mr. Hickok, Planning Coordinator, stated that this request is to
split a portion oi property 20 feet by 75 ieet from 7922 Ranchers
Road and add it to 7940 Ranchers Road. Both properties are zoned
M-1, light industrial. In 1985, a variance for parking was granted
for the parcel at 7940 R�nchers Road. In 1984, a lot split was
approved to split the property.� The proposed lot split does not
create a buildable lot, as the lot areas for both properties do not
meet the �.5 acre requirement. The lot coverage increases on each
property to 39 percent. An easement to allow access and address
drainage and parking concerns was previously granted by the City.
Mr. Hickok stated that, as proposed, an 18-inch gap would exist
between the two buildings. This should be closed in to eliminate
future maintenance problems. The Engineering Division is concerned
about the capacity of the regional drainage pond.
Mr. Hickok stated that the Planning Commission unanimously
recommended approval of this request with the stipulations that (1)
no future development on the subject or surrounding vacant
properties shall occur until an analysis of the capacity of the
regional storm water pond oc�urs and is approved by the City; and
(2) that the petitioner shall close the 18-inch gap between the
proposed addition and the existing building located at 7922
Ranchers Road and make them architecturally compatible.
Mr. Hickok stated that staff recommends denial of this lot split,
as it does not meet the minimum area requirements and approval
would not be consistent with previous plats and lot split actions.
Councilman Barnette questioned how the 18-inch gap would be_
enclosed and if there would be a roof over it.
Mr. Hickok stated that the petiti.oner indicated there is a way to
create a wall on the front and back of the building. Essentially,
it would be a typical wall but have an 18-inch air space.
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 8, 1997 PAGE 10
Mr. Haukaas, Assistant Public Works Director, stated that with some
of the recent additions and changes, there has not been a complete
analysis of the drainage. The pond serves more than one lot and
with the sandy soil, there is not much of a problem. The pond has
been improved in a piecemeal fashion. With any development beyond
this addition there should be an analysis done.
Councilwoman Bolkcom questioned if the lots could be combined so
that they mePt the code requirements. In 1985, the code was
changed to require a minimum of 1.5 acres for development. She
felt the City should not deviate from this requirement.
Mr. Hickok stated that he would defer to the petitioner, but he
believes they are separately owned.
Councilman Billings stated that he fel� if Council approved this '�--�
lot split it would be going in the opposite the direction the City
wanted to proceed. He would like the lots combined into one that
meets code instead of taking from 7922 Ranchers Road to enhance
7940 Ranchers Road. He also had concerns about the ponding and the
stipulation about fll�lliE u�velopment.
Nir. Haukaas staLed that the pond is in tne rear iot area of tnese
properties. There really are not any lots left to build on. If
there are additional expansions or changes to the existing
properties, he felt the City needed to look at the area as a whole.
He stated that really the only properties affected are in this
block. .
Ms. Dacy, Community Development.Director, stated that the wording
in the stipulation to include surrounding vacant properties should
probably be eliminated, as the lot split has to do only with the
two lots.
Councilman Biliings stated that property owners should probably be
forewarned of the drainage problem in the area. Anything they do
in thE future would require on site ponding.
Mr. Haukaas stated that there currently is not a problem, but there
is the potential for one in the future.
Mr. Paschke, representing the property owners at 7922 and 7940
Rancher Road, stated that this project was designed in 1982. The
pond was designed to handle a one hundred year storm. This year,
there was a five hundred year storm. There were no problems with
the pond, and it was not close to capacity. No one -from the City
has approached him with problems with the pond. The only thing
they are required .to do, by law, is to detain the water for a
period of time. The pond has the capacity to handle the water in
that area. The addition requires the handling of 900 cubic feet or
about 1,500 gallons of water which is minute and results in about
one-fourth of an inch more water in the pond.
Mr. Paschke stated that the property owners at 7922 Ranchers Road
were thinking of additions to their property so 30 feet was taken
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 8, 1997 PAGE 11
from Lot 7 and added to Lot 8. With this lot split 30 feet is
being taken from Lot 8 and being reverting back to Lot 7 where it
was when it was platted in 1984.
Councilwoman Bolkcom asked if the two lots could be combined to
meet the code.
Mr. Paschke stated that there are two different owners and two
mortgages. There are several other buildings in this area with the
same circumstances, one is on 81st Avenue, and it is well
maintained.
Councilwoman Bolkcom stated that at some point, the City is going
to have to follow the codes and require the 1.5 acres. She did not
want to set a precedent for the future. She cited the case of a
residential property from the last Cotiric�il meeting.
Mr. Paschke stated that there is only 47,000 square feet, and it
was never platted for 1.5 acres.
Councilman Barr�ette stated that in a situatior� fram the last
Council meeting, a person bought a.lot after the ordinance was
passed knowing full weil it was'not a buildable iot. Mr. Paschke's
development was platted in 1984, and the ordina�ice was not changed
until 1985 for the 1.5 acre requirement. He felt that this was a
different situation and is an existing development.
Ms. Dacy stated that this is essentially a replat of two lots.
Another option would be to re-convey the south 30 feet of Lot 7
back to Lot 7 from Lot 8 and expand the building on the north.
This would permit about a 4,000 to 4,500 square foot addition, and
the lots would revert back to the area originally created.
Councilwoman Bolkcom.asked if the owners would consider a sinaller
' addition.
Mr. Paschke stated that he cannot speak for them. He felt,
however, that the Fire Department might have a concern with two
buildings too close together,so that they cannot fight a fire. He
felt that this would create � maintenance and fire problem at that
close distance.
Ms . Dacy stated that she did not necessarily agree and would like
to review this with the Fire Department. There would be fire
walls, and the new addition would have to be sprinkled.
Staff presented a video tape of the area and the two buildings
involved in this lot split.
Councilman Billings stated that he could not support this lot
split, as he felt that this was the opposite direction from what
the City wished to accomplished by trying to eliminate as many non-
conforming lots as possible. There is reasonable use of the
property as it exists now. He failed to be convinced that this is
in the best interests of the City as a whole.
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 8, 1997 PAGE 12
Councilwoman Bolkcom stated that she agreed with Councilman
Billings' comments. She would be willing to table and explore
staff's option for a smaller addition.
Councilman Barnette stated that he would vote in favor of the lot
split if more space can be provided and the area cleaned up to the
satisfaction of the two property owners.
Mr. Paschke stated that the area needs a lot of soil correction.
It would not be possible to complete the addition this year if
there are delays. There is probably another way to construct the
addition so there is no impact, as the building has more than the
required number of parking spaces even with the proposed addition.
Mr. P��ischke stated he felt that Council should study the
recomm�r.dation r°garding no future development before any action is
taken. The pond serves all the property along Ranchers Road and
the University Industrial Park which is the three shopping centers.
There are o.ther ponding areas built into this entire system. The
only thing that was talked about was the grassed in ponds. By law
t: J L_; L L. _ i F . � .
wat�L Cal1 Ue ue�d�ned Oii �iie LOOi Oi t�l� proper�y.
Councilwoman Boikcom stateci that ner concern was not. tne d.rainage
issue. What staff is recommending is that there be no further
future development on the subject or .surraunding vacant p,roperties
until an analysis of the capacity of the storm water pond occurs.
Mr. Haukaas stated that he met with Mr. Paschke's engineer and is
satisfied with the amount of ponding for this project. Since the
pond was originally installed, there have been some changes. The
site needs to be re-analyzed before any future development occurs.
Councilman Schneider asked the permitted lot coveraqe.
Mr. Hickok stated that the permitted lot coverage is q0 percent in
this zoning district. In both cases the lots would be at 39
percent lot coverage.
Councilman Schneider stated that this .building was in existence
before the code was changed: Nothing can be done to make it l.5
acres.
Councilman Billings stated that there is a letter from the owners
at 7922 Ranchers Road agreeing to the lot split. He questioned if
there was any communication from the owners of 7940 Ranchers Road.
Mr. Hickok stated that the request for this lot split is from the
owners at 7940 Ranchers Road, and they have filed the application.
Councilman Barnette asked how the 18-inch gap would be covered
between the two buildings.
Mr. Paschke stated that preliminary plans have been submitted, and
they intend to cover the 18-inch gap. The roofs would be
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 8, 1997. PAGE 13
connected, and there�have been no legal or title problems with this
situation. It creates a legal line between the two buildings.
MOTION by Councilwoman Bolkcom to deny Lot Split, L.S. #97-02.
Seconded by Councilman Billings. Upon a voice vote, Councilwoman
Bolkcom and Councilman Billings voted in favor of the motion.
Mayor Jorgenson, Councilman Barnette, and Councilman Schneider
voted against the motion. Mayor Jorgenson declared the motion
failed.
MOTION by Councilman Barnette to adopt Resolution No. 69-1997, with
the following stipulations: (1) no further future development on
the subject or surrounding vacant properties shall occur until an
analysis of the capacity of the regional storm water pond occurs
and is approved by the City; and (2) the petitioner sha11 close the
18 inch gap between the proposed addition and the existing building
located at 7922 Ranchers Road and make them architecturally
compatible. Seconded by Councilman Schneider.
Councilman Schneider stated that he basically agrees with the
philosophy oi the Council in that a iine of er�croac�,ment r�22ds t�
be in the code. However, this is an existing building, and it was
--�`��� platte�d before the ordinance was changed. rie was concerned that
this not be taken as a blanket precedent.
Councilwoman Bolkcom asked if this was approved if Council was
setting a precedent.
Mr. Knaak, City Attorney, stated that whenever Council approves
something it does set a precedent. They are required to treat
similar applications in the same manner. However, if this
situation is unique it makes the City's position more defensible.
Council needs to be concerned about particular distinguishing
circumstances.
Councilman Barnette stated that the lot was platted prior to the
ordinance being changed to the 1.5 acre requirement.

back to what was originally platted. It meets the overall lot
coverage area, and there are no drainage problems associated with
this particular addition.

eliminating the words "or surrounding vacant properties" from
stipulation No. l. Further, to add the following stipulations:
(3) the petitioner shall submit a notarized statement from the fee
owners of 7922 and 7940 Ranchers Road before October 1, 1997
indicating that both fee owners understand the stipulations; and
(4) that these stipulations will be filed against both properties
at the Anoka County Courthouse. Seconded by Councilman Schneider.
Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Jorgenson declared the
motion carried unanimously.

City or an addendum to Stipulation No. 1 that, as part of the storm
agreement, ownership will have to be decided for Outlot A.
Ms. Dacy stated that to have it combined for tax purposes would
clarify the issue.
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 8, 1997 PAGE 15
Councilman .Billings stated that Lot 2 would be sized not only for
retail space but for a pot.ential restaurant. He asked if a lot
split would be required.
Ms. Dac� stated that Lot 2 would provided for one use. Bachman's
indicated that they are evaluating it and would submit a replat for
the second lot. No application has, as yet, been submitted. There
is the potential that Lot 2 could be replatted in the near future.
Mr. Frank, representing Wal-Mart, stated that there is language in
the City' s requirements to make sure � that the outlot could not be
conveyed separately from Lots l. or 2. They accept this language.
Mr. Knaak stated that there is no harm in additional clarification
on this topic, and it would be appropriate.
Councilwoman Bolkcom asked what the expansion at Sam's Club would
include.
Mr. Frank stated that when Sam`s Club acquired this store it was
less than a typical Sam's club. More space is needed for their
merchandise and to respond to their clientele.

RE: 57th Avenue Roadway Improvements
Request for Proposal
Mr. Flora:
r'ann"'g BRW Inc. is pleased to submit this proposal to provide design services for the
Transportation 57th Avenue roadway improvements project. We are sincerely interested in
E"g'n�7'°� your project and believe that our experience and focus is directl a hcable to
Urban Design y pp
your project.
Thresher syuare BRW has completed two traffic studies in tlus area. The most recent traffic
�oo �n,�ra str�c so. study, completed in March 1997, provided the background to the alternative
Minneapolis, selected and the basis of this �roposal. BRW believes the continuity from
Mrv ssais study to design of this roadway section will be invaluable to the City of
612/370-0700 Fridley. .
Fax 612/370-1378 .
PROJECT APPROACH
Denver
Mil�vaukee BRW will provide the City of Fridley a complete set of contract documents that
M'°°eaPo>>S will allow the public bidding of the 57th Avenue improvements. The design is
Ne�,'�rk based on the Five-Lane Roadway Alternative No. 3 from the March 1997
°ria°a° Traffic Study Update prepared by BRW. The following is a summary of our
rh°en'X proposed Work Program. �
Portland
San Diego BRW will prepare plans and specifieations for the project in accordance with
seacc►e Mn/DOT State Aid standards. In addition, 57th Avenue is an Anoka County
Roadway (County Road 102) and will require plan preparation in accordance
with the County standards. BRW will submit sets of the plans and
specifications to the City and County for review at appropriate intervals
during their preparation or as requested. Upon completion, BRW will subnut
to the City, County, and Mn/IIOT State Aid for final review and approval.
2.02
Mr. John Flora
1VIay 16, 1997
Page 2
The plans will included the following:
• Title Sheet
• Details/Tabulations
• Typical Sections
• Existing Conditions/Removals
• Plan & Profile of Roadway
• Staging and Traffic Control Plans
• Storm Sewer/Drainage Improvements
• Signage and Striping Plans
• Traiiic Signal Modifications
• Street Lighting Plans ,
• Landscape Plans
• Roadway Cross-Sections
It is assumed that the plans will be prepared using metric system units, unless
specifically requested to be in English units by the City. It is our
understanding that the project will be designed in the summer/fall of 1997 and
bid in the winter of 1998 for a 1998 construction start.
The landscape .plans identified above include only the replacement of
landscape materials removed due to construction. It is our understanding that �
the signal modifications include the replacement of the existing mast arms and
poles and additional heads to accommodate the new roadway lane layout.
This will also include some re-wiring of the signal system. It is assumed that
the pole bases will not need to be replaced and the controller and cabinets vyill
remain as is.
BRW will prepare a project manual inrluding detailed. specifications in an
acceptable format for the City and County. Further, BRW will prepare an
engineer's estimate of construction costs. BRW will meet with City staff as
needed to discuss the design and to review project status.
BRW will provide construction assistance for the project as directed by the
City. This task includes answering questions during the bidding process,
preparation of Advertisement for Bids, distribution of plans and specifications,
preparation of necessary addenda, and evalua#ion of bids.
ESTIMATED FEES AND EXPENSES
The estimated fees to complete the Work Program identified above has been
determined by estimating the number of hours associated with each work task
and multiplying by the average hourly, rate by employee classification. BRW
proposes to complete the Work Program for a not-to-exceed amount of $23,900
2.03
Mr. John Flora
May 16, 1997
Page 3
for services plus reimbursable expenses. Services will be billed monthly on an
hourly basis considering the classification of each employee and our Standard
Hourly Rate Schedule. A copy of our Standard Hourly Rate Schedule is
attached for your information. Expenses will be billed directly to the City with
no additional BRW mark-up.
It is proposed that any additional services not included as a part of the basic
Work Program would be billed hourly based upon our Standard Hourly Rate
Schedule.
Additionally, in your RFP you requested an estimated fee for construction
inspection services.. BRW routinely provides these services to our clients.
Based on work on the recently completed Mississippi Street Improvements,
BRW is very familiar with the City and County requirements. BRW proposes
to provide construction inspection to coordinate the construction activity. On
a project of this nature; this typically results in approximately 3/4 time
commitment from an inspector. In addition, BRW inspectors will work with
BRW office personnel to prepare the necessary application for payments and
applicable paperwork as needed for the County and MnDOT State Aid. BRW
proposes to perform these services for a not-to-exceed amount of $16,000 for
services plus reimbursable expenses. The RFP did not identify the need for
construction staking services. BRW has survey personnel that typically
provide this service, and if requested, we would appreciate the opportunity to
do so for the 57th Avenue project.
ADDITIONAL SERVICES
The RFP did not indicate the need for base map preparation. Based on BRW's
understanding of the project, this base mapping has not yet occurred. Due to
the nature of a reconstruction project as proposed, a detailed design survey
would be necessary. It is imperative to know the elevation of the existing
centerline as well as the edge of existing pavement. Existing landscape and
parking lot improvement locations would be necessary to accommodate the
widened roadway design. BRW has estimated that this effort would take
appro�cimately 2%2 field days along with office time to prepare the actual base
map. If requested by the City, BRW proposes to perform these services for a
not-to-exceed amount of $2,980 plus reimbursable expenses.
Based on discussions with Barbara Dacy, BRW understands that the City may
request a livable communities grant that would allow for the design and
construction of enhanced sidewalks and/or paths along with enhanced
landscape/hardscape improvements. BRW is very familiar with City staff and
understands the urban enhancements that would make this project a
revitalized area within the City of Fridley.
2.04
Mr. John Flora
May 16, 1997
Page 4
It is assumed that the design concept would be similar to the Mississippi Street
design. These improvements include concrete paver sidewalks and median in-
fill, benches and ornamental lighting, and street tree plantings. It is further
assumed that the City would desire these same materials and design for 57th
Avenue.
BRW has again estimated the effort to complete this task. If these services are
desired by the City, $RW would proposed to perform these services for a not-
to-exce�d amount of $5,030 plus reimbursable expenses. This assumes that
these d �sign elements would be incorporated into the overall construction
docum��nt pa:.kage.
Other services that may be requested include right-of-way documents and
utility upgrade. BRW has a survey group capable of providing exhibits to use
in discussions with property owners and preparation of legal descriptions.
BRW could also prepare a right-of-way plan, if req•uired for State Aid. BRW's
Work Program does not include replacement or installation of sanitary sewer
and watermain. If these improvements are required, BRW would be happy to
provide this service to you. The Work Program identified above does not
include costs for either right-of-way plan preparafiion or utility design.
PROJECT TEAM
The team assembled for this project will be headed by Paul Danielson. Paul
will be the project manager and the daily City of Fridley contact. Paul was the
project manager for the initial Home Depot traffic study that initially evaluated
roadway improvements for 57th Avenue. In addition, Paul was the design
engineer on the Christenson Crossing project for the City of Fridley HIZA,
working as the consultant for Rottlund Homes. That work included the
Mississippi Street improvements. Paul has coordinated several projects that
involved several cities, Anoka County, and Mn/DOT State Aid over the past
several years.
Bob Green will be the project erigineer for the traffic signal modifications and
the street lighting design. Bob works exclusively as a traffic engineer and is
the main signal design engineer for BRW. Bob works extensively with Jeff
Holstein, the author of the Traffic Study prepared for 57th Avenue and is
familiar with the project. In addition, Bob has an excellent relafionship with
Mn/DOT personnel involved with signal design issues.
2.05
Mr. John Flora
May 16, 1997
Page 5
Tom Harrington will be the project landscape architect. Tom was the project
and design manager for the Christenson Crossing project and worked
extensively with City staff on the aesthetic issues for that project. Tom has
extensive experience with urban enhancement .projects and is very familiar
with the Mn/DOT State Aid process.
Attached for you review is a brief resume of each. In addition, the above key
staff will involve other BRW staff as needed to complete the project in a timely
manner.
RELATED EXPERIENCE
As discussed above, BRW has performed two traffic studies for the 57th
Avenue corridor. BRW completed the traHic study update for this corridor
that is the basis for this final design project. BRW understands the project
issues and is the logical choice to complete the final design and implement
construction.
BRW's experience on the Christenson Crossing project and associated
Mississippi Street improvements provided a solid understanding of City
personnel. BRW understands both the planning and engineering issues and
has developed an good working relationship with City staff. BRW.
construction inspectors have worked well with the City of Fridley construction
coordinator, Jon Thompson. BRW has also worked with Anoka County field
personnel and understands Anoka County construction requirements.
BRW has significant experience with Mn/DOT State Aid personnel. BRW
typically processes 10 to 15 projects each year through Mn/DOT State Aid.
We understand the process and will prepare plans that will meet their
concerns and requirements. In addition, BRW works extensively with
Mn/DOT on several signal projects each year. We can provide a critical link
for the City of Fridley and Mn/DOT to process the approval of the signal
modifications. �
BRW works with Anoka County on several municipal type project like this
each year. BRW also provides consulting engineering services to the City of
Coon Rapids, typically including at least one project each year on Anoka
County roadways. Paul Danielson is the project manager for the City of Coon
Rapids.

RE: 57th AvenUe Roadway Improvements
Request for Proposal
Mr. Flora:
In reviewing the request for proposals with you, it was noted that BRW Inc. inadvertentiv
omitted two items from the proposal dated May 16, 1997 for the 57th Avenue Roadway
Planning Improvements project. BRW coristruction services did not include construction staking: In
T=anspa=t�t�on addition, there was no scope for geotechnical services to assist in the design of the project.
Engineering
urban Design BRW has discussed the project with our in-house survey department and have determined
a budget of $9,600 to perform construction staking for the project. The survey crew would
�,r�ner square take direction from the BRW on-site inspector to coordinate the survey activity: BRW
�oo �n,�ra sneec so. inspectors and surveyors typically work in this construction services role and have the
Minneapolis, knowledge on what it takes to complete the project. .

l. PUBLIC HEARING: CONSIDERATION OF A 9PECIAL USE PERMIT, SP
#97-06, BY DELORES AND CRAIG HARTOS:
Per Section 205.07.O1.C.(1) of the Fridley City Code, to �
allow construction of a second garage on Lot 16, Block 4,
Sylvan Hills Plat 3, Generally located at 6200 Starlite
Boulevard N.E.
MOTION by Mr. Kondrick, second�d by Ms. Modig, to waive the
reading of the public hearing notice and to open the public
hearing.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON SAVAGE DECLARED THE
MOTION CARRIED AND THE PUBLIC HEARING OPEN AT 7:32 P.M.
Mr. Hickok stated the property is located on Starlite Boulevard
and is zoned R-1, Single Family, as are all the surrounding
properties. To the west of the property is the railroad line.
Located on the property is a single family home. Behind the home
is a 22 foot x 22 foot detached garage. There is also a 10 foot x
28 foot accessory structure on the northwest corner of the
3.01
PI+ANNING COMMISSION MEETING SEPTFI��ER 3 1997 PAGE 2
property that encroaches 5 feet into the utility easement.
Mr. Hickok stated the request is to allow for the 22 foot x 22
foot garage to be moved back to where the 10 foot x 28 foot
structure once stood and to locate the garage 5 feet from the
property rear line and outside of the utility easement. Then a
new garage measuring 24 feet x 38 feet would be constructed. The
proposed new garage has a narrow front and is deeper than the
typical garage. On the west elevation of the proposed garage will
be a single garage door to allow access between the two
structures.
Mr. Hickok stated, as discussed, the petitioner is proposing to
keep the current 22 foot x 22 foot existinr garage but to move it
back on the site. In order to do this, the 10 foot x 28 foot
structure will be removed. The total square footage for the
accessory buildings being considered is 1,396 square feet. The
maximum allowed is 1,400 square feet. The purpose of keeping the
22 foot x 22 foot structure is to provide storage for firewood,
lawn and snow equipment, and to provide shelter for t�e dogs when
they are left alone.
Mr. Hickok stated staff recommends that the Planning Commission
recommend approval of the special use permit to the City Council
with the following stipulations:
l. The structures shall be architecturally compatible with the
existing dwelling.
2. Neither accessory structure be used for a home occupation
3. The 1Q foot x 28 foot structure shall"be removed within three
months of completion of the garages; a demol•ition permit
shall be obtained.
4. Proper moving and building permits shall be obtained prior to
construction starting.
5. The second garage (22 foot x 22 foot) shall not be located in
the utility easement.
Mr. Kondrick asked if there were any special setbacks other than
that the existing garage not.be located in the utility easement.
There is no other dispensation granted by the Appeals Commission
to allow the buildings to sit where they are. The setbacks are.
met.
Mr. Hickok stated this was correct.
Mr. Kondrick asked if staff had received any comments from the
3.02
PI�ANNING COMMISSION MEETING, SEPTEMBER 3, 1997 PAGE 3
neighbors.
Mr. Hickok stated staff had received no comments.
Mr. Sielaff asked how big the site was.
Mr. Hickok stated the site is 11,250 square feet.
Mr. Sielaff asked what was the percentage of lot coverage when
taking into account the house and accessory structures.
Mr. Hickok stated the total coverage will be 21.9%. 25% is the
maximum allowed coverage.
Ms. Savage asked the petitioner had any problems with the
stipulations.
Ms. Hartos stated she did not, except the demolition permit for
the shed.
Mr. Hickok stated, however the petitioners chooses, the shed would
be a third building and must be removed. In order to do that, if
the building were going to be demolished, they would need a
demolition permit. If the building is to be moved, they would
need a moving permit.
Ms. Hartos stated they had planned to tear down that building
before construction.
Ms. Hartos stated the garage to be moved is about 10 years old and
in good shape. The shed is more make-shift. This will look much
nicer. It was her idea. She could not see a good garage going to
waste. She started the plan to tear down the shed, move the
existing garage and build a new garage. The existing garage will
make good use for storage space.
Mr. Kondrick asked if the petitioners had any problems with the
buildings being architecturall,y compatible.
Mr. Hartos stated everything would be the same. The garages would
be sided the same as the house, and they will be the same color.
Ms. Savage asked if the petitioners had heard any complaints from
the neighbors.
Ms. Hartos stated the two neighbors are at the meeting.
One neighbor stated she.had no complaints. She just wanted to be
sure that the garage would not be used for a home business. That
concern was cleared during the staff report.
3.03
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING SEPTEr�ER 3 1997 PAGE 4
Ms. Hartos stated another neighbor had planned to attend to
support the request.
MOTION by Mr. Kondrick, seconded by Mr. Sielaff, to close the
public hearing.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CEAIRPERSON SAVAGE DECLP,RED THE
MOTION CARRIED AND THE PUBLIC HEARING CIASED AT 7:40 P.M.
Mr. Kondrick stated he drove by the site and saw what they are
going to do. He has no problem with the request as long as the
petitioners are comfortable with the stipulations.
Ms. Modig stated she had no problems with the request. She
thought the proposal would be an improvement for that property.
MOTION by NIr. Kondrick, seconded by Mr. Saba, to recommend
approval of Special Use Permit, SP #97-06, by Delores and Craig
Hartos, to allow construction of a second garage on Lot 16, Block
4, Sylvan Hills Plat 3, generally located at 6200 Starlite
Boulevard N.E., with the following stipulations: '
l. The structures shall be architecturally compatible with the
existing dwelling.
2. Neither accessory structure be used for a home occupation: •
3. The 10 foot x 28 foot structure shall be removed within three
months of completion of the garages; a demolition permit
shall be obtained.
4. Proper moving and building permits shall be obtained prior to
construction starting.
5. The second garage (22 foot x 22 foot) shall not be located in
the utility easement.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON SAVAGE DECLARED THE
MOTION CAFtRIED IINANIMOUSLY.
Mr. Hickok stated the City Council would consider this request at
their meeting of September 22.
2. PUBLIC HEARING: CONSIDERATION OF A REZONING, ZOA #97-03, BY
THE CITY OF FRIDLEY:
To rezone property from R-3, General Multiple Family
Dwelling, to R-1, Single Family Dwelling, on Lots 2 and 21,
not taken for street purposes, and all of Lots 4 through 10
and 14 through 20 of Block 20, Fridley Park, as recorded at
3.04
PLANNING CONIl�iISSION MEETING, SEPTFI��ER 3, 1997 PAGE 5
the Office of the Anoka County Recorder, generally located at
the northeast corner of 61st Avenue and East River Road.
MOTION by Mr. Kondrick, seconded by Mr. Saba, to waive the reading
of the public hearing notice and to open the public hearing.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CEAIRPERSON SAVAGE DECLARED THE
MOTION CARRIED AND THE PUBI,IC HEARING OPEN AT 7:43 P.M.
Ms. Dacy stated the site is located in the northeast corner by
East River Road and 61st Way, and encompasses the entire block.
The property is zoned R-3, General Multiple Family Dwelling, and
is surrounded by R-1, Single Family, to the north and west. To
the south, the Commission acted to rezone the CR-1, Genecal
Office, to M-1, Light Industrial. A 30,000 square foot warehouse.
complex will be constructed on that property.
Ms. Dacy stated this request is to rezone the 3.1 acre site from
R-3, General Multiple Family Dwelling, to R-1, Single Family. The
request is being proposed by the City of Fridley. When the
development and the rezoning occurred on the property originally,
there was a development agreement approved. Because no
development occurred.on the property, the direetion was clear that
the zoning was to revert bac.k to R-1. This action happened on
this site in 1984. At tl�at time, the current owner had proposed
to develop 28 loft townhomes on the site. The developer was
unable to follow through with the development and to comply with .
the stipulations.
Ms. Dacy stated, when staff analyze a rezoning, they look at a
number of factors. In this case, because the rezoning is back to
the original zoning that was on the property in 1984, it would be.
consistent with the zoning historically. Under the current plat,
12 to 15 single family iots could be developed under the R-1
zoning. The R-1 district, as well as R-3, allows churches,
nursing homes, convalescent homes, and other similar types of uses
by a speeial use pexmit. It is conceivable that the Planning
Commission could see a special, use permit request for this site.
Ms. Dacy stated staff wanted to point out that the R-3 zoning
works for this site as well even though this application is being
proposed to be consistent with the 1984 action. Because the site
is located just to the north of an industrial area and to .the
south edge of a single family.area, it forms a good transitional
type of piece. The size of 3.1 acres is large enough to
accommodate berms or other types of landscaping for additional
screening if so desired by the neighborhood. It is located near a
railroad which is just to the east. Sometimes that may not be as
attractive for single family homes.
3.05
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, SEPTEN�ER 3, 1997 PAGE 6
Ms. Dacy stated, despite the recommendation to rezone back to R-1,
it is just as likely that the Planning Commission may see a
rezoning request in the future to go back to R-3 because of the
parcel's location and it would be an opportunity to create a
different housing style.
Ms. Dacy stated staff recommends the Planning Commission recommend
approval to the City Council to rezone the property to R-1, Single
Family.
Ms. Modig asked if staff was saying there is still the possibility
that the Planning Commission may be asked to rezone this property
again back to R-3 because of the type of property it is.
Ms. Dacy stated yes, this is possible.
Ms. Modig asked, if the Planning Commission chose not to rezone
the propert�, what negative thing would happen.
Ms. Dacy stated she did not know that there would be any
negatives. A rezoning application gives the Gity the maximum
amount of discretion. It also requires a 4/5 approval by the
Council. It offers the Planning Commission and City Council more
control. If the property remains R-3, a development could occur
on the site as a permitted use, and the Planning Commission and
City Council would not have the ability to Iook at the project in
some type of detail. There was an option discussed with the City
Council of amending the development agreement and keeping the
zoning the way it is, but it was determined it would be mo�e
appropriate to rezone the property to R-1. Any new request that
would come through would have to go through the same type of
scrutiny as any other request.

Mr. Kondrick asked the petitioner why he would prefer to have the
zoning remain R-3.
Mr. Nielson stated he had a contractor recently interested in
building 12 townhomes and another contractor who called today also
interested in building townhomes. He would like to develop the
property.
Mr. Kondrick asked how much of a hardship would it present if the
property were rezoned to R-l.
3.06
PLANNING CON�IISSION MEETING, SEPT�ER 3, 1997 PAGE 7
Mr. Nielson stated he would probably be back within one year to
rezone back to R-3.
MOTION by Mr. Kondrick, seconded by Mr. Saba, to close the public
hearing.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CFIAIRPERSON SAVAGE DECLARED THE
MOTION CARRIED AND THE PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED AT 7:50 P.M.
Mr. Saba stated he is concerned about putting the owner through
hoops by rezoning. In looking at the location, there is not a
good chance that will be developed as R-l. It is more likely to
be developed as R-3. The request is to go from R-3 to R-1, with
the probability it will go back to R-3 again. He did not
understand why they are changing the zoning. He does understand
that they have more latitude in the development of that area.
However, the site is located next to the railroad and just north
of property zoned M-1. To him, R-3 would make an ideal buffer.
Mr. Kondrick agreed. He wondered if he was missing something.
Since there is M-1 across the street and other housing one block
away, it seems this would be a good spot for transitional housing
or multiple family housing. He did not see why they should do
this.
Ms. Dacy stated the Planning Commission does not have to agree.
If the Commission feels the current zoning is what you believe
should remain on the property, theri the�motion can reflect that.
The intent behind the application is essentially to start all
ove�. The 1984 application could not happen for a variety of
reasons. The analysis was that, if it is rezoned to R-1, then any
development would have to meet today's standards, would have to go
through the process including a public hearing, and involve the
people in the neighborhood. If you feel R-3 is more appropri:ate,
the Commission has the option to recommend denial of the request.
Mr. Kondrick stated putting single family houses there is a
possibility if the property is,zoned R-1, but nothing has happened
since. He does not think they would put houses there.
Ms. Savage stated her concern is that they should not be making
decisions themselves without the opportunity for a full hearing.
We would be making the decision that the property sYiould be R-3.
It seems to her that this is not for the Planning Commission to
decide because they do not have the full opportunity for
interested parties to have a say, to have their due process which
is the opportunity to be heard. Why should we decide that this
property should be R-3 without going through the procedure that
would be set up?
3.07
PLANNING CONIl�IISSION MEETINGs SEPTF�ER 3, 1997 PAGE 8
Ms. Modig stated the property is currently zoned.R-3. The
process, if that was a problem, would not have taken place.
Unless she is misunderstanding what staff is saying, by gving back
to R-1, it gives us some input as to the type of R-3 housing that
goes in there. If the property remains R-3 and staff referred to
today's standards, whatever development goes in there has to meet
the current criteria. The advantage to the Planning Commission
putting the zoning to R-1 is that no one could put in a
development without first coming through the process.
Ms. Dacy stated that is correct.
Mi. Kondrick stated he understood they would have more control if
tr�e zoning was R-1 rather than R-3.
Ms. Dacy stated this was correct.
Ms. Sielaff stated staff inentioned that a special use permit could
be obtained. For what purposes would such a permit be required?

�! •
Ms. Dacy stated in 1984 the City rezoned the property subject to
the execution of a development agreement based on 28 loft
townhomes. The developer could not construct the loft townhomes.
The City proceeded to pass the zoning to R-3 with the development
agreement stipulations. While there is an option that would
renegotiate the development agreement to something different under
today's standards, the City Council felt it was appropriate to
initiate the process to rezone the property back to R-1. Any
development would require the petitioner to file a new petition,
the City would have to notify the surrounding people within 350
feet and would involve the public in that new glan. That gives
the City control to evaluate the request to zone back to R-3.
Ms. Savage stated this also gives all interested persons an
opportunity to be heard.
Ms. Modig asked, if the Commission were to rezone as R-1 and the
owner comes back next year to request R-3 zoning, is there a way
we can put on a time certain so this does not keep coming back
year after year. It seems like a lot of paperwork and a lot of
wasted time. She likes to think that the City could look at those
things and have some input about.what goes on the property and the
type of use. If reverting this back to R-1 gives us greater input
and control, that would be an advantage. Otherwise, she thought
3.08
PI�AriNING CONII�IISSION MEETING, SEPTEMBER 3, 1997 P� 9
they were just changing numbers.
Mr. Sielaff stated part of the issue is also getting input from
neighbors.
Mr. Kondrick asked if they should be thinking about rezoning any
other R-3 properties to R-1 so we have control.
Ms. Savage stated this property is unique because the contractor
did not fulfill their obligations.
Ms. Dacy stated the only other substantial piece of property zoned
R-3 that was developed recently was the Harstad townhomes east of
Highway 65. There are no other vacant parcels zoned R-3 at this
time. There are spots zoned R-3 here and there but the majority
are developed.
Mr. Saba asked if this would be treating the m�tter of rezoning
rather lightly and not sticking to a zoning plan. He has a
problem with changing the zoning from R-1 to R-3, then R-3 back
R-1 without a specific plan for development. We still have some
control if the zoning is R-3. The intent is to develop the
property as a townhome development as it was intended in 1984.

changing the zoning to have control.

of
Ms. Savage stated she sees this as a unique situation where in
1984 a request was approved to.allow loft townhomes to be built.
There was a plan and a project, but that-did not happen. Right
now there may be in the future a similar plan but it is not before_
us now. She thought this was more procedural. This is reverting
back to what it was before because the agreement was not carried
through. She person�lly would concur with staff's recommendation.
If there was a plan in front of us, that is different but we do
not have a plan and may not for another year..
Mr. Saba stated that is the issue he has. They do not have a plan
for R-1. The•location is next�to the railroad tracks and across
from M=1. I�e did not see that as a prime development for R-1. He
thought the City would see a request in one year to go back to R-
3. �
Ms. Savage stated she thought the main concern is that this will
give people the opportunity to be heard. There was a hearing in
1984 where the neighbors had the opportunity to be present and
express their views. That is not happening now. She thought that
needs to occur. That is a fundamental due process of the law that
people can be heard, and she thought that was the intent of the
City Council.
3.09
PLANNING CON�IISSION MEETING, SEPTEMBER 3, 1997 PAGE 10
Mr. Saba stated they were holding a public hearing now and people
had the opportunity to be heard, but few people are at this
meeting. He thought that was due process.
Ms. Modig stated she is going back and forth. She sees what the
City wants to do and understands it, but she also thinks the
property is not viable and has not been for all this time for
single family. It was R-1 for years, and nothing happened.
Nothing happened on it with R-3 either. She thought they would be
spending more time down the road going through the same process
and argument. If the Commission chose to leave the zoning as it
is, because the developer has to come in for building permits,
submit a site plan, and meet certain criteria, she really does not
ur.derstand how much more input they would have•by changing the
zoning than not other than a public hearing. She thought that was
valuable, but there was a public hearing tonight. The mailing
list would be the same. There was no interest now.
Mr. Nielson stated he also owned the 1/2 block that is vacant to
the north of this block which is zoned R-l. The rezoning would
only affect 4 houses. There is only one house that faces his
property and that is across East River Road. It is not really
affecting anyone.
Mr. Sielaff stated, as he read the public hearing notice, he did
not get all of the issues that were discussed tonight. If he were
part of the public, he would not get upset about it because he
would not know what the issues were.
Ms. Modig stated the rezoning would still be the same. If there
is no interest in the rezoning, why rezone the property. The
mailing list was quite extensive and included a number of
commercial properties.
Mr. Kondrick stated he thought any resident driving by there would
conclude multiple family would be better there than single family.
The railroad tracks are there. Industrial land is to the south.
When the zoning changed from R-1 to R-3, the neighbors had the
opportunity to have their say. He likes the idea of having
control but after hearing discussion he would prefer to have the
zoning remain the same. The City sent out notices that the
rezoning is an issue but there were no responses. Personally, he
also feels the property would best serve the citizens for a
multiple family use.
Ms. Savage stated she did not disagree with that. They do not
know what will be going up there. They do not know the type of
multiple family dwelling that would go up there. If the zoning is
R-3, there is not the same control as to what type of multiple
dwelling can be erected there. There was a concern voiced in the
3.70
PI�ANNING COl�lISSION MEETING, SEPTEI��ER 3, 1997 PAGE 11
surveys about multiple family dwellings. Part of it is the fear
of crime. If the people knew there was going to be some type of
development going up, they would come. If they find out there is
a development that they might not want in their neighborhood, they
would come. She understands the concerns being expressed that the
property is not a suitable property for single family dwelling
area. She still feels though that it is important to wait until
there is an actual project that is going to be there and to have
an opportunity for everyone to have their say. She did not think
they should be concerned with the extra time and paperwork when it
comes to letting people decide what type of property they want in
the City.
Mr. Sielaff asked what happens at this point to the previous
development agreement.
Ms. Dacy stated a resolution passed by the City Council declared
the development agreement breach. Because the developer could not
fulfill their obligation, the agreement becomes null and void.
The resolution instructs the City to initiate the rezoning process
back to R-l.
Mr. Sielaff stated an alternative would be not to rezone the
property. Would the City then need another development agreement?
Ms. Dacy stated, because the City Council has taken action to
consider the agreement breach, they can no longer use the original
agreement as a negotiating tool. It would be left to building
codes and zoning codes. If there was a proposal for owner
occupied townhomes, there is the possibility of a plat application
which would go through the process. A developer may request a
variance which would go through the Appeals Commission. There is
a possibility there may be a public involvement process. But the
developer could also submit a plan that meets all the
requirements, and they would have to then use the existing
standards.
Mr. Kondrick asked, if the Commission left the zoning as R-3,
would they lose control of the density on this property.
Ms. Dacy stated whatever the R-3 zoning stipulates would have to
be adhered to. If they met the letter of the law for R-3, then
they would have to issue the building permit.
Mr. Kondrick stated, if the zoning were R-1, we would have more
control over the density.
Ms. Dacy stated, in that case, they would have to file a rezoning
application and then you get into the discussion of whether this
is a good site for R-3. You still have the density requirements
3.11
PI.ANNING COMNIISSION MEETING SEPTEI��ER 3 1997
PAGE 12
to act as a guide. Through the rezoning process and site plan
review process, you may be able to control that a little more.
Mr. Kondrick asked if they could control the quality, design, etc.
He is willing to do that if they could exercise some power. He is
not hearing that staff is saying that.
Ms. Dacy stated this is not the same as the southwest quadrant.
In the past, the City Council has based the stipulations as part
of the rezoning request to control some issues such as
architectural exteriors, etc. Each case has different
circumstances. She cannot say they would have total control by
rezoning back from R-1 to R-3.
Mr. Saba stated this is difficult. He would like to restrict R-3,
but in this location he personally cannot see rezoning the
property to R-1 and then back to R-3.

UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON SAVAGE DECLARED THE
MOTION CARRIED AND THE PUBLIC HEARING OPEN AT 8:20 P.M.
Mr. Hickok stated the request is for a zoning text amendment that
would affect Sections 205.13.04, 205.14.O1.A, 205.15.O1.A, and
205.16.02 of the.Fridley City Code. The purpose of the amendment
3.13
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, SEPTEP�ER 3, 1997 PAGE 14
is to prohibit second hand dealer shops and pawn shops in the C-1,
Local Business, and CR-1, General Office, zoning districts and
also to modify the C-2, General Business, and C-3, General
Shopping Center District, to allow second hand and pawn shops.
Mr. Hickok stated the C-1 and CR-1 districts have historically
served as a compatible transition between commercial and
residential uses. The C-1 district provides local conveniences to
surrounding neighborhoods.
Mr. Hickok stated in early 1997 the City had a request to allow a
second hand shop in a C-1, Local Business, district. ThF code was
non-descript about the use and for a short time the busir.ess
occupied a building in the C-1 district. During that tir..e,
concerns were voiced regarding the intensity of the use, the
potential sale of used handguns, etc. Based on a request, staff
analyzed the situation and determined the code should more
explicit about such uses in the.C-1 and CR-1 districts, and in the
C-2 and C-3 districts it should be mare descriptive in allowing
these.
Mr. Hickok stated the City is required to make provisions for uses
in its community. It is not easy to simply say no, but we can be
clear about where we direct uses. The proposed text amendment
will clarify where pawn shops and second hand stores should be
located in the City. Second hand shops are a bit different from
pawn shops. Pawn shops are regulated in Chapter 31 of the City
code which requires a license and a review process before
commencement of operation in a certain location. Second hand uses
are also in the City. Staff held a meeting with the owners of
second hand businesses to discuss the modifications. They were in
concurrence with the C-1 and CR-1 prohibition. Their best
locations are in the C-2 and C-3 districts.
Mr. Hickok stated staff recommends the C-1 and CR-1 districts be
modified to prohibit second.hand shops and pawn shops, and that C-
2 and C-3 districts be modified to allow second hand shops and
pawn shops as permitted uses. �
Ms. Savage stated there were not to be any second hand shops in
the C-1 or CR-1 districts. She asked if there were any requests
to have any.
Mr. Hickok stated, with the exception of one discussed, there are
no pending requests. The one mentioned in the presentation has
moved to another location.
Mr. Kondrick stated he wished to clarify that the owners of these
types of businesses concur that the locations would be best
located with the language that is being submitted.
3.14
PLANNING CONIl�IISSION MEETING, SEPTEI��ER 3, 1997 PAGE 15
Mr. Hickok stated this was correct.
Mr. Kondrick asked if the police department prefers the proposed
language as well.
Mr. Hickok stated yes. The police department first asked staff to
look at the C-1 district. Staff feels the CR-1 district should
also be included.
Councilmember Barnett asked if this would also apply to the second
hand clothing and consignment stores in Holly Center.
Mr. Hickok stated this would apply to all second hand operations.
He is not familiar with any existing second hand use in a C-1 or
CR-1 district. Second hand shops would be permitted by right in
the C-2 and C-2 districts. Holly Center is a C-3 district.
MOTION by Mr. Kondrick, seconded by Mr. Sielaff, to close the
public hearing.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON SAVAGE DECLARED THE
MOTION CARRIED AND THE PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED AT 8:30 P.M.
Mr. Kondrick stated he had no problem with the request. He
thought it was nicely done. .
MOTION by Mr. Kondrick, seconded by Mr. Saba, to r�commend
approval of the Zoning Text Amendment, ZTA #97-01, by the City of;
Fridley, to recodify the Fridley City Code, Chapter 205, entitled
"Zoning", in order to regulate the location of pawn shops, pawn
brokers, and second hand goods dealers:

UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON SAVAGE DECLARED THE
MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
Mr. Saba asked if there are any other businesses that should be
included in this type of activity.
Mr. Hickok stated the City did have a request to expand the CR-1
for a jewelry store which was more of the insurance side of the
jewelry business with some sales. Staff is monitoring that
carefully. As they looked at this type of thing, they looked at
the uses in the CR-1 and believe they are appropriate. With this
exception, the code was not descriptive enough about these. That
is why staff brought this forward.
4. FRIDLEY EXECUTIVE CENTER UPDATE
Ms. Dacy stated in December, 1995, the HRA executed a contract for
exclusive negotiations with MEPC-American Properties which
3.16
PLANNING CON�lISSION MEETING, SEPTEN�ER 3, 1997 PAGE 17
required MEPC to market the property on behalf of the HRA. During
the same timeframe, the City agreed to complete the intersection
analysis and design and some of the environmental approvals that
were required to serve the site. The current status is that MEPC
has completed the master plan process. The current plan was
approved for up to a maximum of 580,000 square feet of office plus
a little less than 100,000 square feet of service/commercial uses.
Ms. Dacy stated, in the last 18 months, the City has completed the
Highway 65 intersection design. The final plans and
specifications are now underway. Construction is proposed to
start next spring. The City completed the environmental
assessment worksheet and obtained an indirect source permit from
the MPCA.
Ms. Dacy stated MEPC also completed a number of marketing
activities. They completed the focus group analysis. They
changed the name of the site from Lake Pointe to the Fridley
Executive Center.because there were some conflicting development
names in the metro area. They have a new logo that is out on the
signs. They conducted a site event for brokers during the summer
of 1996. They have been conducting a number of ineetings with
major prospects. In the agenda packet, correspondence from MEPC
lists those companies to which they have sent proposals. Nine of
the proposals that were sent to users for the office part of the
campus and 14 proposals for restaurants, hotels, banks, etc. ,
Ms. Dacy asked, "What did we learn from the market during the last
18 months?" Sometimes it was a mixed message, but they did iearn
a lot. The Class A market for office space is getting better in
the metro area; however, it does not seem to be improving fast
enough in the north metro area. Some of the things they heard
from the market is, even though Fridley has.Medtronic, Onan and a
number of very good companies, Fridley has to comgete with places
like Wayzata and Edina which may have more CEO appeal. The
southwest and western communities in the metro area have the
advantage of a number of corporate office developments in one
location so there is a synergy,there. 0ur site is an isolated
site, and we compete with other communities and their development
patterns.
Mr. Kondrick asked if the costs per square foot are similar. Are
the costs less? Are land costs less? Wouldn't that make the
property more attractive?
Ms. Dacy stated construction costs are the same throughout the
metro area. Even to write down the cost of the land to $1.00, a
key part of the proposal is to do structured parking and the City
is agreeing to provide an increment to the developer to construct
that parking. In Edina which has the Centennial Office building,
3.17
PLANNING COL�IISSION MEETING SEPTII��ER 3 1997 PAGE 18
a very similar circumstance exists. They have a parking structure
in place and TIF areas in place. Even though we are in different
markets, we are all offering nearly the same type of package. At
one point we thought we could offer a tax advantage. The property
taxes in Anoka County are typically below that in other counties.
However, a referendum in that school district altered the tax
picture. Over the last six or so years the tax rate in that area
has increased. The edges that we thought we had no longer exist.
Another issue is that the nature of companies is changing. The
era of the campus development such as Honeywell and Medtronic may
be gone. Companies are focusing on the bottom line and trying to
conserve as much cost as possible.
Ms. Dacy stated it is possible that we could get the original
vision of 580,000 square feet but there would be no guarantee as
to when that would occur. The TIF district expires in 2011. Each
year that goes by with the site undeveloped reduces our ability to
provide financial incentives.
Ms. Dacy stated they have also been getting the "chicken and egg"
feedback. The coru-nercial people hesitate to locate a building
ther� until there is an office building there. The office
building people are hesitant to locate there because the services
are not there. That brought us to tech-flex which is a jargon
term for a one-story, high quality building for high tech
companies that need flexible space for production and office
areas. Ms. Dacy presented a videotape showing two such buildings
- one in Golden Valley and one in Eden Prairie. The Eden Prairie
building site is interesting because it is down the block from a
multi-story building and exemplified that a mixed use could occur
in the marketplace. This approach is the approach that the HRA
and the City Council want to pursue on the property.
Ms. Dacy stated the video also showed a two-story building in St.
Paul. They have input from companies that want to build an
operation center on the property. A two-story building would
probably require a larger footprint than a multi-story building.
Ms. Dacy stated the City Council and the HRA would like to pursue
construction of a 100,000 square foot, one-story tech-flex type of
building on the west part of the site and reserve the east part of
the office park for a multi-story development of approximately
250,000 square feet. The HRA has agreed to temporarily extend the
contract to allow MEPC to go to their board to get approval on the
one-story building. The City Council and the HRA are concerned
about the length of time the site has remained vacant. Since 1987
when the theater was removed and the utilities and streets
installed, the City has been actively trying to market the site
for its original .vision. The City Council and HRA felt that the
tech-flex concept does not detract from the image and could
3.18
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, SEPTEIIBER 3, 1997 PAGE 19
attract a high quality company that could stimulate interest and
attract other development.
Ms. Dacy stated this is a mixed use approach - one story plus the
multi-story. However, it initiates a pro-active approach on this
site which can be accomplished within the TIF timeframe. She
would be happy to forward any comments to the City Council and
HRA. In the next two to three months, they will be researching a
100,000 square foot proposal in more detail.
Mr. Sielaff asked if they need a commitment from a company before
constructing a building.
Ms. Dacy stated, based on MEPC's experience in Golden Valley and
Eden Prairie, they are so confident there will be a tenant in a
one-story tech-flex that they are going to their board for a
speculative proposal. The City has received a number of calls
over the last one or two years from those types of companies that
we have not sought actively because the vision was always 500,000
square feet of office.
Mr. Sielaff asked if there were any restrictions on the amount of
space a company could lease in that type of building.
Ms. Dacy stated no. It may be the case that one company may need
the entire building depending on the nature of the business. MEPC
did make a proposal to Lawson Software. This mixed used proposal
is very close to what they were evaluating - a one-story
production space with corporate offices next door. There could be
a user who needs 100,000 square feet but because of the campus may
want to reserve more space for corporate offices for more
development.
Mr. Sielaff asked it would reduce the risks involved with losing a
tenant if you have more tenants.
Ms. Dacy stated this was true. There are usually one, two or
three tenants in these types of buildings. The companies are
generally of good size and have 100 to 200 employees. There could
be a smaller tenant there but that does not seem to be the case.
Mr. Saba stated he works in a similar type of building. If you
drive along I-494 along Bass Lake Road and Wedgewood, the
intersections are gorgeous with flowers all summer and well
maintained landscaping. Corporations want to bring customers in
to show them their product. They don't want the customer to feel
as though they are driving through a"bad part of town". One gets
a good feeling when driving to these facilities. When driving
along Highway 65 from I-694 to Mississippi and looking at the
growth in the median, it is not a pretty site. If you want
3.19
PLANNING CONIl��ISSION MEETING SEPTEMBER 3 1997 PAGE 20
something to attract customers to a corporate center and to
impress customers with your product and your location, you need to
do something about Highway 65 and also University Avenue to
maintain what we have. We cannot rely on the state. This may
have to be done by the City. The median and the roadside along
Highway 65 need an overhaul. It makes all the difference in the
world. Corporate centers in Golden Valley have well maintained
roads and medians. It is very different in Fridley. If we expect
to develop a corporate client that will exit from I-694 and drive
up Highway 65, that is not a pretty site.
Ms. Savage stated this is a point is well taken. Also, flowers
add to the appearance of the city. While on vacation in British
Columbia, she was impressed with Vancouver which is a beautiful
city with flower gardens that were well tended. The landscaping
adds much to the appearance. She thought this is something the
City needs to work on.
Ms. Modig asked who is responsible for the median.
Ms. Dacy stated the state is responsible for the median on Highway
65. Staff did write the state about the condition of the guard
rail from West Moore Lake Drive to East Moore Lake Drive, and they
did agree that it was unsightly. They are looking at having some
of the guard rails replaced as part of the intersection
improvement projeet to start next spring.
Mr. Kondrick stated, when you travel west on I-b94 from Highway 65
to University, the road is high and the land is low. Nothing is
worse than looking at the roof of some building with the air
conditioning systems, etc., as you drive by. At ground level a
building may look good, but it looks bad when you are on the
roadway. He would imagine there are ways to design around it so
we do not have to look at that especially with a one-story
building. He would recommend screening to hide the roof from any
passerby. -
Mr. Kondrick stated the video of the�tech-flex building in Golden
Valley showed in the background a condominium. He knows they
mentioned the office parking, What about the idea of condominiums
in that area? Do developers find that area too expensive, poorly
located, too noisy, etc., for a possible condominium development
on a portion of the property? Would that be impossible to have on
a portion of the site?
Ms. Dacy stated the developer has not approached the City for a
residential use. On the other hand, the master plan has always
leaned toward the corporate office park. A highrise condominium
could be developed on the site. She thought the primary issue was
an economic one. An owner/occupied development would not produce
3.20
PLANNING CONIl�IISSION MEETING, SEPTII�IDER 3, 1997 PAGE 21
the amount of taxes that office space would. The planning for
this site is that intensifying the site is the best use for the
property; and when the TIF district expires, there will be the
maximum amount of return to the community as a whole.
Mr. Sielaff asked if the buildings were being marketed as regional
headquarters or as corporate headquarters.
Ms. Dacy stated the marketing is generally as office space. She
did not know if there has been a distinction made between
corporate headquarters and regional headquarters. It is marketed
as a full service campus where companies can locate for office,
production and/or research and development. The interested
parties have proposed a gamut of different types of uses from an
operation type of center to corporate headquarters with research
and development facilities.
Ms. Modig stated her concerns about a one-story is that it puts
them in the same mode of operation that we have on University
Avenue near 79th where the.majority of which are empty.
Ms. Dacy stated, in terms of the one-story, this is a different
market than that development would have. It is a different
market, a different interior and a different exterior. We would
exert more control in this development because of the master plan.
Those developments are more the office/warehouse and industrial
types of buildings. This is specified for the high tech use.
Mr. Sielaff stated, for 250,000 square feet, how many stories
would that be.
Ms. Dacy stated 250,000 square feet could be accommodated in two
125,000 square foot buildings with a range of four to six stories
depending on the proposal by the company.
Mr. Sielaff asked if this would be away from the residential
areas.
Ms. Dacy stated yes. The parking lots are to the north between
the buildings and the residential area.
Mr. Kondrick asked if they dare spend more maney to make it
marketable, such as adding ponds, fountains, brick, etc. lnThat if
we spent $1 million to make the site more beautiful than it is
now? Can we spend some money to get back more?
Ms. Dacy stated realistically the City has done much to make the
site attractive. The roads and utilities are in. Some people
think it is a park. What detracts from the site is the function
of the intersection. It took 18 months to get approvals on the
3.21
PLANNING CONIl�IISSION MEETING SEPTEI�ER 3 1997 PAGE 22
design of the intersection and construction is hoped to get going
next spring. A company will look at the cost of the land, what
they can do on the site and how that will affect the bottom line.
With the TIF district in place, the incentive is there. It is
true that Edina has some other advantages that helped. This site
tends to be isolated but it has excellent visibility. Once there
is activity on the site, there will be more attraction to the site
and more interest. She thought they have to get the first
building up.

The petitioners, Craig and Delores Hartos, request that a special use permit be granted
to allow the continued existence of a 22' x 22' detached garage. The petitioners are
proposing to relocate this garage on their property and convert it to use as a storage
shed. The petitioners are also proposing to construct a new 24' x 38' garage in the
location where the 22' x 22' garage had existed.
. •� , •�
The subject property is located mid-block on Starlite Boulevard between 61� Avenue
and Trinity Drive and is zoned R-1, Single Family Dwelling. A five foot utility easement
is located along the rear lot line. Located on the property is a 24' x 40' rambler-style
dwelling and a 22' x 22' detached garage, both of which were constructed in 1977. A
second detached building (10' x 28') is located behind the detached garage and should
be removed if this special use permit is granted. No permit was issued for this structure
or an addition to the rear of the dwelling.
The parcel #o the north contains a dwelling and a detached ga�age in the rear yard.
This garage will be adjacent to the proposed garage. The finro driveways are joined
with a four foot high chain link fence located in the driveways separating the properties.
ANALYSIS
Section 205.07.01.C.(1) requires a special use permit for second accessory structures
ove� 240 square feet.
The petitioners are proposing to constn.ict a new 24' x 38' detached garage. This
garage is proposed to be used for the storage of vehicles. A hardsurface driveway now
4.03
Project Summary
SP #97-06, by Craig & Delores Hartos
Page 4
exists on the site and would provide access to the new garage. The petitioners are
requesting a special use permit to allow continued use of the exis#ing 22' x 22'
detached garage. This garage will be relocated to the rear of the property behind the
new garage. It will be tumed 90 degrees in order to allow the existing door to face
south. This garage is proposed to be used for the storage of maintenance equipment,
firewood, and as a dog kennel. No hardsurface driveway is required as no vehicles will
be stored in this structure. The structure cannot be located in the utility easement
located along the rear lot line.
The new garage will not exceed the first floor area of the dwelling. The combined
coverage of all structures (21.9%) does not exceed the maximum 25% allowed by code.
Typical stipulations for requests of this nature include arcf itectural compatibility with the
dwelling and no home occupations in the stn.icture(s). The proposed structures do not
adversely impact adjacent uses or dwellings.
It does not appear that permits were obtained for previous construction. Both moving
and building permits are required for this proposal.

1. The structures shall be architecturally compatible with the existing dwelling.
2. Neither accessory stnacture may be used for a home occupation.
3. The 10' x 28' accessory structure shall be removed within three months of
completion of the garages; a demolition permit shall be obtained.
4. Proper moving and building permits shali be obtained prior to construction starting.
5. The second garage (22' x 22') shall not be located in the utility easement.

Mr_ Hickok stated the request is to allow for the 22 foot x 22
foot garage to be moved back to where the 10 foot x 28 foot
structure once stood and to locate the garage S feet from the
property rear line and outside of the utility easement. Then a

be a single garage door �o allow access between the two
structur�s.

with the following stipulations:
1• The structures shall be architecturally compatible with the
existing dwelling.
2. Nei.ther accessory structure be used for a home occupation.
3• The 10 foot x 28 foot structure shall be removed within three
months of completion of the garages; a demolition permit
shall be obtained.
4- Proper moving and building permits shall be obtained prior�to

neighbors.
Mr. Hickok stated staff had received no comments.
Mr. Sielaff asked how big the site was.
Mr. Hickok stated the site is 11,250 square feet.
Mr. Sielaff asked what was the percentage of lot coverage when
taking into account the house and accessory structures.
Mr. Hickok stated the total coverage will be 21.9%. 25o is the
maximum allowed coverage.
Ms. Savage asked the petitioner had any problems with the
stipulations.
Ms. Hartos stated she did not, except the demolition permit for
the shed.
Mr. Hickok stated, however the petitioners chooses, the shed would
be a third buiidinq and must be removed. In order to do that, if
the building were going to be demolished, they would need a
demolition permit. Tf the building is to be moved, they would
need a moving permit.
Ms. Hartos stated they had planned to tear down that building
before construction.
Ms. Hartos stated the garaqe to be moved is about 10 years old and
in good shape. The shed is more make-shift. This will look much
nicer. It was her idea. Sh� could not see a good garage going to
waste. She started the plan to tear down the shed, move the
existing garage and build a new garage. The existing garage will
make good use for storage space.
Mr. Kondrick asked if the petitioners had any problems with the
buildings being architecturally compatible.
Mr. Hartos stated everything would be the same. The garages would
be sided the same as the house, and they will be the same color.
Ms. Savage asked if the petitioners had heard any complaints from
the neighbors.
Ms. Hartos stated the two neighbors are at the meeting.
One neighbor stated she had no complaints_ She just wanted to be
sure that the garage would not be used for a home business. That
concern was cleared during the staff report. -

SUBJECT: Approve Comprehensive Sign Plans for Osbome Commerce
Centers I and II
Steiner Development Inc., developer of Osbome Commerce Center Phases I and II,
has submitted a comprehensive sign plan for the buildings located at 103 and 223
Osborne Road N.E. The plan submitted is new for the building located at 103 Osbome
Road (Phase II) and revises the plan previously approved for 223 Osbome Road
(Phase I).
The Phase If building (103 Osbome Road) will have signage on the west, south, and
east sides. The typical tenant signs will be on the south side facing Osborne Road, 40
square feet in area, and will be composed of individual vinyl letters mounted directly on
the building. "Anchor" tenants (over 20,000 square feet) will be permitted to have a 68
square foot sign. Stream Feeder has b�en identified as an anchor tenant. On the -
south elevation, 268 square feet of signage is altowed; 268 square feet is proposed.
Anchor tenants in Phase II will also be allowed signage on the west and east faces of
the building. These signs will also be individual vinyl letters. The maximum allowed by
code for these walls is 189 square feet; 96 square feet is proposed.
On April 14, 1997, the City Council approved a comprehensive sign plan for the Phase l
building (223 Osborne Road). The developer would like to revise the plan to be
consistent with the plan described above. The signs will change from pan signs to
individual vinyl letters. Larger signs will also be permitted for the anchor tenants of this
building.

PURPOSE:
The City of Fridley is requesting Kreines 8 Kreines, Inc. to assist the City in determining
whether it should establish a telecommun�cations facllitfes utility that would own and
operate wireless telecommunications facilities (authority provided In City Chatter).
BACKGROUND:
The City of Fridley has passed an interim ordinance establishing a moratorium in order to
compiete the technical analysis required to identify potential sites and regulatory controls
forwireless communication facilitles. The moratorium expires December 31,1997.
The City has also amended its Cha�ter to permit the City to own and operate wireless
facllities as a"public utility". The City Charter requires the voters to approve the utility
before the Clty adopts an ordinance enacting the utiAty. The City Council. prior to
deciding on scheduling a speclal referendum, wants to review a business plan for
operating a utility and contrasting this option with an option to require locatlon on specific
municipal sites. At this time seven municlpally-owned sites have been identified. Another
consultant has identified other sites (not municipally-owned) whfch would also be eligible
for wireless iac!lities.
WORK PRODUCT:
I. Complete a Business Pla� which compares fin+o opt(ons defined below:
Option A. Deslgnated Sites/Prlvate Sector Ownership and Operation of Antennae.
Review the proposed seven munlclpal sites and complete a ten year pro forma
("sources and uses") analysis of these sites only. Parameters for analysis include:
1) Calocation is required on monopoles, 2 or more providers, preferably
three.
2) I# not located on a Clty water tower, the City does not "own" the
monopole.
3) The City will either lease the land or the water tower to the provide�s.
4) The current lease rate is $1,000lmonth on one of the City's water
towers.
5) Identify and determine the costs fo� maintenance, lease management�
and other expenses related to the wireless site.
6) Monopoles are preferred over lattice work facilitles.
7j Exlsting munlcipal water tower structures are preferred over monopoles.

and visual pollution, and yet are strategically placed to be revenue
producing sites.
2) If a monopole needs to be constructed. the City wl�' "own" the monopole
and Is willing to provide a rent credit if provlder pays for design and

4) Minimum lease rate is $1,000/month/provider.
5) Identify and detem�tlne the costs for maintenance, lease management
and other related expenses related to the wireless sites.

overseeing and managing sites?
3) Are there any sltes which will not. be technical�ly feasible for wireless
antenna �facilities? Are there other City-owned sltes that would be

Objective of the Project
Krcin�s & Kreines, lnc. will advise the City vf Fridley on the issues and providc a
recommcndativn based on the following alternative ways to mana�e t11e
d�ployment of commercial mobile radio services (GMRS)� within ihe City's
corporatc limits:
• Option A- Lease public ]and to the carriera. Analysis af seven municipal
sites.
• Option B- Establiah a public uHlity. Both public and private sites will be
cxamined. Option B will involve either a Bole pravider or a GompetiHv� entity.
1� decision on whether th� utility is either a sole provider or a competitive
entity is critical to preparing the Business Plan.
A ten-ycar financial model will bc created in order to determine if ii is feasible to
operate a public utility. While Option A is limited t� seven idcntified sites, the
financial model in Option B will project operations over a ten-year tim� frame, and
�ould invoIvc more than seven public and some privabe sites.
Eatll approach will have a business plan that allows comparison between the
r�venue and profit potential of each alternative. The Wirele�s
TeIecommunications Facility Business Plan will present both business plans and
compare the t�wo with an emphasis �n the recomme,nded approach.

FROM: William W. Burns, City Manager�r� �
DATE: September 19, 1997
SUBJECT: Richard Bistodeau Settlement
Please note the attached resolution that was prepared by Attorney William J: Everett of
Greene Espel. The resolution establishes a$100,000 out of court settlement for Richard
Bistodeau. In exchange for the insurance company's payment of $100,000, Mr. Bistodeau
agrees to drop all claims against the City of Fridley arising out of his non-appointment as a
City of Fridley full-time firefighter in September, 1994.
As you may recall, Mr. Bistodeau disputed the results of our hiring process in 1994. In his
lawsuit, Mr. Bistodeau claimed that the City's hiring process was discriminatory and not in
compliance with the provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
While not admitting wrongdoing, the attorneys representing the City and the League of
Minnesota Cities Insurance T'rust strongly recommended that we settle our differences with
Mr. Bistodeau out of court. A settlement conference was conducted before Federal
Magistrate Arthur Boylan on September 4, 1997. As a result of the conference, the City and
its attorneys agreed to pay Mr. Bistodeau the amount of $100,000. While the City Council
has the option of rejecting the settlement which will be paid by the City's insurer, in doing
so, the City would be responsible for all legal costs and other potential costs arising out of
this case which exceed the $100,0001eveL
Staff's recommendation is that we reluctantly accept the terms of the settlementprocess and
approve the attached resolution. We will also conduct a thorough assessment of our
firefighter selection processes and policies. As in other situations where we f
disappointing outcome,

WHEREAS, legal counsel for the City of Fridley has strongly

DATE: September 19, 1997
SUBJECT: University Avenue Fence
The attached survey was sent to 393 residents who live within a block and a half of either
side of University Avenue: We asked the respondents to return the surveys by Friday,
September 19, 1997. As of 1:00 p.m. on Friday, we had received 99 surveys. Out of the
surveys that were returned, 79 people indicated that they did not think any sections of the
University Avenue fence should be removed, and 20 were in favor of removing the fence.
Of those in favor, the consensus was that the fence should be removed on the east side of
University Avenue between 45th Avenue and I-694 and between I-694 and Mississippi
Street. In regard to the other sections of the fence, there seemed to be a lack of consensus
among those who were in favor of removing the fence in certain areas. There seemed to be
a substantial number of individuals who felt we should not remove the fence on the east side
of University Avenue between Mississippi Street and.69th Avenue. The majority of those
who wanted to remove some fencing were opposed to removing any of the fencing on the �
west side of University Avenue.
While I do not have specific data, from talking with Scott Hickok, it is my understanding that
people in the various planning areas that have been surveyed for the comprehensive plan
amendments have generally mentioned the need to remove the University Avenue fence.
Scott has offered to assemble this information for Monday night's meeting. At this point,
it would appear that the broader community is much more in favor of removing the fence
than are the individuals who live along University Avenue.
While at one time I considered placing a resolution or motion on Monday night's agenda that
would have Council deciding to remove one or more sections of the fence, I have chosen not
to at this meeting. Council, of course, could choose by motion to adopt a fence removal
policy covering one or more sections of the fence. I wouid expect, however, that those in
attendance at our meeting will be largely negative in their attitude toward this issue.

September 19, 1997

In talking with staff from Community Development, Public Safety, and Engineering, there
is a general consensus that none of the University Avenue fence should be removed without
identifying some suita.ble replacement. The replacement may be some kind of ornamental
fence similar to the one being installed on the Rottlund project site.

MEMORANDUM
DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR
DATE: September 18, 1997
TO: William Bums, City Manager ��
�
FROM: Barbara Dacy, Community Development Director
Scott Hickok, Planning Coordinator
Michele McPherson, Pianning Assistant
SUBJECT: Public Hearing on a Zoning Text Amendment, ZTA #97-01,
by the City of Fridley, to Recodify the Fridley Cit�r Code,
, Chapter 205, Entitled "Zoning", in Order to Regulate the
Location of Pawn Shops, Pawn Brokers, and Second Hand
Goods Dealers
BACKGROUND
In March 1997, Dave Sallman, Pubiic Safety Director, contacted Community
Development Department staff regarding the potential of prohibiting pawn shops and
second-hand shops in the C-1, Local Business zoning district. Sallman believed that
the impacts of either type of shop extend beyond what the C-1, Local Business zoning
district regulations were designed to accommodate.
As you know, the C-1 zoning district is a commercial district intended to senre the
convenience needs of the surrounding neighborhood. A recent second-hand store
experience in the former Steak Express building on East River Road exemplifies
Sallman's concerns. Numerous neighborhood complaints were registered regarding
the operation of the second-hand store in this location. The nature of the complaints �
were: traffic, fear of second hand gun sales, fear of sale of stolen goods, and generally,
the contrary nature of a business such as this in an area meant for convenience uses.
Those complaints were an indication that from the neighborhood perspective, the use is
not viewed as compatible. The City recognizes that a business such as this should be
permitted, but possibly should be restricted to the districts designed to accommodate a
20.01
Second-Hand Dealer Shops and Pawn Shops
September 18, 1997
Page 2
wider variety of commercial uses. Districts such as the C-2, Generai Business and C-3,
General Shopping Center, are designed to handle higher volumes of traffic and uses
that are more compatible to adjacent retail than adjacent residential.
In response to Sallman's request, staff evaluated the issue further. The result of that
evaluation lead to a conclusion that both the C-1, Local Business district and the CR-1,
General Office district regulations should be modified to prohibit pawn shops and
second-hand stores.
On April 7, 1997, Sgt. Bob Rewitzer of the Fridley Police Department and Scott Hickok,
Planning Coordinator, met with a group of local business owners. These owners
represented a cross-section of the pawn shop and second-hand dealers in Fridley. The
business owners discussed the proposed code modifications and concurred with staff's
recommendation io prohibit such shops in the C-1 and CR-1 zoning districts. A map is
attached for your convenience to illustrate the C-1 and CR-1 zoning districts in the City.
Staff committed to discussing the issue further and to prepare an ordinance
amendment for the Planning Commission and City Council.
' --• • __ . �
The purpose of this amendment is to preserve the residential integrity of the area
surrounding the C-1 and CR-1 zoning districts. The CR-1 zoning district was intended
to serve as a transition befinreen residential properties and higher intensity commercial
business uses. The C-1 zoning district was intended to provide convenient business
opportunities to serve the convenience needs of the surrounding residential areas. The
amendment will assure the intent of the C-1 district stays intact and that detrimental
impacts to adjacent residential uses are curtailed.
Allowing second-hand and pawn shops in the CR-1 and C-1 district would eliminate
convenience commercial space which is�already limited in Fridley. The uses tend to
have a wider market range (attract more people from greater distances) than the typical
corner convenience grocery, laundry or dry cleaning store, or small repair shop.
Therefore, there are potentially a greater number of vehicle trips, and a greater
potentia! for ancillary uses such as outdoor display and sales, intensified lighting,
intensified signage, etc.
The second-hand and pawn shops, however, are very compatible with the regulations
of the C-2, General Business and C-3, General Shopping Center Business districts.
2�.�2
Second Hand Dealer Shops and Pawn Shops
September 18, 1997
Page 3
DISTINCTION BETWEEN PAWN SHOPS AND SEC'OND HAND DEALERS
The difference between a pawn shop and a second-hand store is that a pawn shop is a
person, corporation, partnership, or association whose business includes I nin
ne , or who deals in the purchasing of personal property or other valuable items on
condition of selling that property. A second hand dealer is a person, corporation,
partnership, or association whose business includes selling or receiving items of
personal property previously used, rented, owned, or leased.
Chapter 31 of the Fridley City Code Strictly regulates pawn shops to assure that stolen
goods are not being bought and sold.
Currently there are finro pawn shops in Fridley. One shop is located on University
Avenue, south of the Fridley Municipai Center, the other is in the Moore lake shopping
Center. �Second-hand shops such as the second-hand children's clothing in the Holly
Center, Tried and True Tools, and Ptay It Again Sports exist in the community as well.
All of these stores mentioned are located either in a C-2, or C-3 district, unless
otherwise permitted in an industrial district (Tried and True).
PLANNING COMMISSION RE OMMENDATION
Staff recommends that both the C-1 and CR-1 zoning districts be modified to prohibit
second-hand shops and pawn shops. Further, staff recommends that the C-2, General
Business and C-3, General Shopping Center zoning districts be modified to allow
second-hand dealers and pawn shops as principal uses as regulated by Chapter 31 of
the Fridley City Code.
The recommended ordinance language has been attached for your convenience.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council concur with the Planning Commission
recommendation.

i CITY OF FRIDLEY PROJECT SUMMARY
DESCRIPTION OF REQt E�T•
The City of Fridley is processing a rezoning request to rezone property generally located at the
northeast comer of the intersection of 61 � Way and East River Road from R-3, General
Multiple Family Dwelling to R-1, Single Family Dwelling: The area to be rezoned is
approximately 3.1 acres.
SUMMARY OF ISSUES•
In 1984, the City approved a rezoning request from R-1, Single Family Dwelling to R-3,
General Multiple Family Dwelling and a plat entitled "Loft Homes of Fridley" in order to allow
construction of 28 rental townhomes. The approvai required the developerto sign an
agreement and to perform certain activities. The developer failed to meet the provisions of the
development agreement and on July 14, 1997, the City Council adop�ed a resolution declaring
the agreement null and void, and directing staff to rezone the subject property from R-3 to R-1.
There is no proposed development at this time for this properly. The R-1 zoning is compatible
with adjacent zoning. A future development will harre to comply with the zoning district
regulations, be they R-1 or R-3. This is the only vacant residential property zoned for muttiple
family dwellings.
�NNING COMMISSION A TION•
The.Planning Commission, on a 3:2 vote, recommended denial of the request for rezoning.
The Commission felt that the site should remain as if is curren#ly zoned given its location near
an industrial area and the railroad. .
�ITY CC�UNCIL RECOMMENDATION
In order to comply with the original intent of the 1984 action, staff recommends that the City
Council recommend approval of the rezoning request. It should be noted, however, that
because of the parcel's location at the northern edge of an industrial area, the site would be a
good location for higher density development.

preliminary plat entitled "Loft Homes of Fridley" which was never recorded. This plat
would have allowed the construction of seven four-unit dwellings, 28 units total. The
petitioner at that time, Robert DeGardner, executed an agreement with the City as part
of the overall development requirements. The developer did not fulfill the items
enumerated in the development agreement. The City Council on July 14, 1997 adopted
a resolution declaring this development �greement void, and directing staff to take the
steps necessary to rezone the property back to R-1, Single Family Dwelling.
ANALYSI�
Prior to the City approving a rezoning request, three criteria must be met. Those
criteria are:
1. Compatibility of the proposed use with the proposed district.
2. Compatibility of the proposed district with adjacent uses and zoning.
3. Compliance of the proposed use wi#h the proposed district requirements.

Project Summary
ZOA #97-03, by the City of Fridley
Page 4
Compatibility of the proposed use with the proposed district
The property is currently vacant. There are no development proposals at this time for
the property. If approved, any future use will need to comply with the R-1 zoning district
requirements. Permitted uses in the R-1 district are single family dwellings. Uses
permitted with a special use permit in this district include churches, private schools,
daycare centers located in churches or schools, hospitals, clinics, nursing homes,
convalescent homes, and homes for the elderly, private non-profit golf courses or
country clubs, utility companies, and automobile parking lots for off-street parking
spaces for an adjacent use.
Compatibility of the proposed district with adjacent uses and zoning
The surrounding zoning districts include R-1, Single Family to the west and north;
vacant railroad property to the east; and recently-rezoned property of M-1, Light
Industrial to the south. Located across 61St Way to.the south is a small office building
which will be connected to a 30,000 square foot warehouse for the distribution of pipe
insulation. R-1, Single Famiiy zoning is compatibie with the adjacent R-1 zoning to the
west and to the north; however, the R-3 zoning district would provide better "buffering"
between the M-1, Light Industrial and the R-1, Single Family. Buffering in a multi-family
dwelling development is a benefit that common ground ownership provides. A
landscape plan combining berm and landscape could provide a visual barrier befinreen
the higher intensity industrial and residential developments. This "buffering" will not be
available if the property is rezoned to R-1, Single Family. This property of
approximately 3.1 acres is the only vacant property zoned R-3, Multipte Family. This is
an oppo�tunity to provide a location for development of multiple family housing which
could provide a different housing style for the community.
Compliance of the proposed use with the proposed district requirements
As stated earlier, there is no development proposal at this time for this property. If this
request is approved, a future development would be required to meet the R-1, Single
Family zoning district regulations, unless a rezoning is requested. The underlying plat
of Fridley Park provides adequate lot areas for 9,000 square foot lots for seven single
family dwellings. The property would need to be appropriately subdivided to
accommodate this type of development.
PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION•
The Planning Commission, on a 3:2 vote, recommended denial of the request for
rezoning. The Commission felt that the site should remain as it is currently zoned given
its location near an industrial area and the railroad.

in order to comply with the original intent of the 1984 action, staff recommends that the
City Council recommend approval of the rezoning request. It should be noted,
however, that because of the parcel's location at the northem edge of an industrial
area, the site would be a good location for higher density development.

MOTZON by Councilman Barnette to �aive the reading of the public hearing
notice and open the publie hearing. Seconded by Councilman Fitzpatrick.
Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, !layor Nee declared the motion carried
unanimously and the public hearing opened at 8:46 p.m.
Mr. Flora, Publie Works Director, stated this is a request to rezone
property from R-1 to R-3 betveen Ashton and East River Road on 61st and
61-1/2 Way N. E.
Mr. Flora stated the petitioner plans to construct 13 four-plex units xith
each unit being a little over 600 square feet. He stated what is proposed
is the loft home concept which would cater to single persons and couples.
Mr. Flora stated Lhe Planning commission reviewed this rezoning requeat and
s+as concerned about the density in this area, and the plan was not a family
development and that the development didn't f it in With the neighborhood,
and recommended denial.
Mr. De Gardener, the petitioner, stated he has a similar development in Coon
Rapids and 80 to 90x of the persons buying these lof t homes are single or
couples, therefore, he did,n�t feel this Would add to the density.
Mr. DeGardner stated he felt this site �as ideal because it Wou1d be a
buffer betxeen single family homes and industrial, and felt the location xas
appropriate for multiple units.
A dra�ing �as presented Which outlined the location of the proposed 13
four-plex units. Mr. DeGardner stated these are deluxe units �ith patios,
oak WoodWOrk, air conditioning, and all appliances and affordable at
�39,900. Mr. DeGardner stated if they obtain VA financing, not over 5x of
the units can be sold to investors.
Mayor Nee asked Mr. DeGardner if he would be interested in Just constructing
the portion south of 61 1/2 Way, and if garages Would be �orked into the
plan.
Mr. DeGardner stated he Wouldn�t have any objection to doing only a portion
of xhat was proposed and garages Would be provided at an additional cost of
�3,500 per unit.
Mr. DeGardner stated Mr. Nielson, the oWner of the property, had visited
with most of the people in the neighborhood and had favorable response and
didn't realize they Would have any problem at all �ith the residents

opposing this development.
Hr. Soj, b5 61-1/2 ilay, stated Mr. Nielson talked to him about this
development and he �►ent to see the one in Coon Rapids. He stated he didn't
realize they would be 28 to 29 feet high Which xould block sunlight and air
from his home.
He stated he felt this development xould also create a traff ic problem on
Ashton. He stated the driveWays would be across the street from his home
and garage.
Mr. Roger Berkholz, 6t03 East River Road, stated the living room and bedroom
face 61-1/2 Way and the garages for this development Would be across from
the living and bedroom area of his home. He stated he f elt single f amily
homes should be p��t in this area.
Mr. Ed Ksolihowski, 35 6?nd Id2y� g�ated there are neu homes across the
railroad tracks from him and felt single family homes should be built on
this property.
Mr. DeGardner stated this project would create a�2,000,000 tax base for
Fridley and the school district. He pointed out a lot of cities are buying
industrial buildings and selling them to developers for �1.00 in order to
create a Lax base.
Mr. Larry MeWhorter, 39 62nd Hay, stated he Was opposed to the rezoning
because of the density. He stated if this development goes in, Ashton would
have to be Widened. He stated he didn't trant Lhis development across the
street from his home.
Mrs. Betty Berkholz, 6103 East River Road, stated she xas concerned about
the children. She felt ahere there are single people living, they probably
are going to have parties and didn't like the element of persons Who Would
be moving into these homes. She stated she Was in favor o�' single family
homes to enhance the neighborhood since it is noK a quiet neighborhood.
Mr. Me�horter stated the Planning Commission stated Fridley has more than
enough loW income housing and understands these Would be considered low
income housing.
Mr. Nielson, 7144 Rivervie�► Terrace, stated these �rouldn�t be considered low
income because you Would need to make at least �18,000 in order to qualify.
He stated, as far as the noise, there Would be an association and he didn't
feel they �rould �ant this either.
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated this is an area that simply hasn�t developed
over all these years it has been zoned R-1. He stated it seems some kind of
buffer is ultimately going to happen rather than single family dWellings.
Mr. DeGardner stated he has been developing land for 20 years and there is a
real demand for single family lots. He stated Lhis area isn't a decent area
for single family homes and if it ever developed for single family units, it
-7-

probably Would be lo�r income housing. He stated right noW this is the best j
market to sell lots for single family homes and if the land was marketable
for this use, he Would build them.
Nr. Nielson stated he has talked to several realtors regarding this property
and none of them Wanted to get involved With single family homes in this
area.
Mr. Berkholz stated �rhen East River Road was �idened, all kinds of fill vas
hauled into this property including trees, stumps, oil and grease, etc. He
felt they Would have problems building considering What has been used for
fill.
No other persons in the audience spoke r�garding this rezoning request.

Mr. Robinson stated the property was bordered on the south by 61st Ave.,
Ashton on the east, East River Road on the west, and 62nd W�y on the north.
The prpperty is surrounded by railroad property on the east, ]ight industrial
on the south, Stevenson School on the southwest, and single family. The
rezoning request is for a change from R-1 to R-3.
Mr. Robinson stated the reason for the rezoning to R-3 was for the creation
of 13 four-plex type units (one-bedroom Loft Homes) attached at the corners.
There would be a central green space, also green space surrounding the
buildings, with parking,
Ms. Schnabe7 asked how wide the lots were in this area.
The petitioner, Mr. Robert DeG�rdner stated these are �0 ft, lots, They
would have to put two toge�her to make one buildable lot.
Mr. DeGardner stated he has ]ived in Fridley for 16 years and has built
about 25 homes in Fridley over the years. He stated Mr. Maynard Nielson
owns the property, and Mr. Nielson asked his opinion about this property.
Mr. DeGardner stated he looked at the site and fe7t the property was not
feasible for single family homes with light �ndustrial, the railroad tracks,
and sor�e poor soi7 conditions.
Mr. DeGardner stated he currently has three quad projects in Coon Rapids.
He is proposing the Loft Home concept for this site. Loft Homes caters to
single people and couples. It is a totally new concept. He stated the
buildings are connected at the corners to make a nice garden apartment.
Every apartment is ground level with patios, quality built, oak woodwork
throughout, air conditioning, all appliances, and very affordable at $39,900.
Mr. DeGardner stated that in looking at the site, he felt this was the most
practical way to develop it. These buiidings would make a nice buffer.between
the light industrial and the single family.
Mr. Kondrick asked what the square footage was for each apartment.
Mr. DeGardner stated each apartment was a little over 600 sq, ft, overall,
which included a 16' x t2'loft bedroom which is open to the living room.
Ms. Gabel asked if Mr. DeGardner would sell a block of these apartments
to an investor who would rent out the units.
Mr. DeGardner stated if they get VA financing,they are limited to 59�. He
stated they should have no probTem selling the units individually. There
are investors who would like to buy these blocks, but the units would be
rentals and there would be an association so it would not be like other
apartment renta�s.

Ms. Schnabel stated she did visit the Loft Homes in Coon Rapids and spent
some time with the salesman there. From what the sa7esman told her, this
last weekend there was an open house and about 150 people cane out. Of
those people who had children, they all turned away, as they did not feel
the units were appropriate for families. The salesman said that of the
units that were up, a]1 were sold but two and he expected to se71 them soon.
Then the second phase of construction wou7d start. Most of the people
buying these units are single people rather than couples.
Ms. Schnabe7 stated the units were very attractive and appeared to be of
__ good quality. The salesman stated the monthly maintenance fee the first
year would be $23/month and $28/month the second year. Each unit contained
a stove, refrigerator, dishwasher, garbage disposal, washer/dryer/ 30 ga7.
hot water heater, insulation acceptable in terms of R value, electric heat,
with heat efficient fireplace. There was a lot of selection in terms of
carpeting, ti7e, etc.
Ms. Schnabe] asked if there was anyone in the audience who would like to
make any comments about this rezoning request.
Mr. Larry Newhorter, 32 - 52nd Lane, stated he has ]ived across the street
from this property �or 71 years. Ne stated when 61st and the stop light
by Stevenson School were put in, the area was filled with concrete. When
Park Construction was digging up I-94, they dumped in clay, mud and concrete.
He did not know how Mr. DeGardner could bui7d on this: property with all the
clay and concrete in there.
Mr. Newhorter stated this property was zoned R-1 when he moved in 11 years
ago, and he did not want any multip7es across-the street. He was also con-
cerned about the height of the units. They would not match with the houses
in the area. He stated these units are built for 1-2 people, bu-t he could
easily see a couple with a child living there: He would like to see single
family homes on the property. In digging footings for a house with a base-
ment, they would probably hit sand, but he did not know if they could lay
a slab on top of the peat.
Mr. Richard Soj, 65 - 612 Way N.E., stated he has lived in his home for
21 years. He stated he has a walkout basement on the east side bf his
house. Nis concern was drainage into his yard and basement if this develop-
ment went in. He also felt these buildings were too high to have across the
street from residentia7.
Ms. Schnabel stated any project that is developed is designed to contain
water within its own development, so there should not be any drainage onto
any other proFerty.
Ms. Betty Rae Berkholz, 6103 East River Road, stated she was concerned about
the children. She felt that when there are single peop7e living in a home,
they are probably going to have parties. She stated this is a quiet neigh-
borhood, and she would feel very uncomfortable because they do not know
what kind of element would 6e moving in. She also felt there would be a
considerable amount of turnover of ownership of these units as people get
ma rri ed and move to 1 arger horr� 1_ � 2

PLANNING COM��ISSION MEETING, MAY 9, 1984 _ PAGE 6
Mr. Ed Ksolihowski, 35 - 62nd Way N.E., stated he owns 32 lots here.
He stated he was against the project, and would like to have sing7e family
homes on this property.
Mr. DeGardner stated that whether multi or single family homes are built on
this site, there will have to be soil preparation. He felt single family
F�omes were out of the question for the reasons mentioned earlier. With
multi, they can get more units per acre; therefore, they can afford to do
some soil preparation. As far as drainage, they wi]1 work closely with the
people and the City to handle the drainage on site. He stated he would be
willing to sit down with the neighbors to try to resolve the concerns expressed
by the neighbors.
Mr. Minton asked how long Mr. Nielson had.owned the property and if.he had
attempted to deve7op the property before.
Mr. Nielson stated he has owned the property for 7 years. He stated he had
considered doubles and single family homes, but because of the financial
situation, these have not worked out for him. When he met with Mr.. DeGardner,
tF�ey both felt this was the best plan for the property.
Mr. Robinson stated if the property was rezoned to R-3, Mr. DeGardner would
be allowed 20� lot coverage. The proposed plan is for 16% lot coverage.
He would need a minimum of 35� green space, and the proposed plan cdlls for
56q green space.
Mr. Robinson stated one concern would be that this proposed plan is not
consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan. If the Planning Commission
recommended approval of the rezoning, the Comprehensive Plan would have to
be amended through the Metropolitan Council.
Mr. Oquist asked about a garage requirement.
Mr. Robinson stated the code does not require garages for apartment buildings.
The City does require 12 stalls per one bedroom unit.
Mr. DeGardner stated garages can be provided if people want one, so those
options can be built into the.plan.

Mr. Oquist stated he was also concerned about the density and the type of
project this is. He stated a good point was made by one of the neighbors
that single people do have a tendency to have parties. It could become a
problem area. He stated it was fine to have low to moderate income housing

for singles, but the City also needs to be considering low to moderate
income housing for families. This is not a family development, so he
did not think the low to moderate income was a positive issue here.
Mr. Saba stated he thought traffic was an issue. He really felt this
development did not fit into this neighborhood. He stated the Loft Home
concept was very interesting and it may fit very well somewhere else, but
not here.

excellent, and she commended Mr. DeGardner for bringing it to the City of
Fridley; however, she also felt this was the wrong area for this type of
development. In the proper location, this type of development made very
nice homes for people with certain needs. She stated she was very impressed
