N�tion�l Breast C�ncer Awareness Month - October 1998 AND Nation�l Mammography
D;�v - October 16, 1998:
Mayor Jorgenson read this proclamation, designating the month of October as National Breast
Cancer Awareness Month and October 16, 1998 as National Mammography Day in the City of
Fridley, Minnesota. '
Communitv Visionin� Process:
At this time, Mayor Jorjenson asked Mr. Mark Koegler to provide Council and citizens with a
presentation on the community visioning process.
Mr. Koegler explained that the City of Fridley is in the process of beginning to update its
comprehensive plan. As a part of that process, the City held several community vision sessions.
The purpose was to obtain input from residents about what they liked about Fridley, what they
would like to see changed, and their hopes and aspirations for the community. This provided staff
with a wealth of information, which they have summarized into a series of statements that are
meant to help guide staff in the comprehensive planning process.
Mr. Koegler read the generalized vision statement which he believed captured the flavor and
appeal of the ideas offered. He also read the guiding principles that classify how the City can
achieve the elements and ideas that are identified in the vision statement. These included:
1)
2)
3)
4)
5)
6)
quality housing that reflects a full range of choices;
an image and identity that reflects the place;
reference the Mississippi River;
good place to do business;
City government as an active partner in attaining the vision;
transportation linkages;
CTTY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 14, 1998 PAGE 2
7) a built environment that recognizes the natural environment;
8) worldclass local and community education;
9) a comprehensive community services network;
10) a place for people to gather;
11) many parts - one community;
Mr. Koegler stated that staff would get this information out to all residents of the community as
soon as possible in order to allow them the opportunity to provide input and comments. One
circulation option wouid be to provide an insert in Focus News: however another type of mailing
may be necessary to reach the business owners in the City.
Councilmember Barnette suggested that input be sought by students in the Fridley schools. He
noted that many of the participants in the community vision meetings were in the thirty years-of-
age and older age bracket. It may be helpful to obtain comments and input from younger
residents as well, who were not represented at the meetings.
Mayor Jorgenson stressed the importance of circulation to as many homes and businesses in the
City as possible.

EMPLOYEES:
Mr. Burns, City Manager, explained that legislation increased the retirement multiplier used
in calculating annual retirement benefits for members of the City's consolidated police
pension association from 2.65 percent to 3.0 .�ercent. This option was made available by
State legislation that was passed last year. Staff recommended that the City join more than
twelve other cities in approving this revision. The costs are to be borne from the credit
balance of $244,000 that exists in the City's consolidated police and fire PERA fund.

CONSOLTDATED POLTCE P.E.R.A.:
Mr. Burns, City Manager, stated that this legislation provides for a reduction in the early
retirement penalty for police employees who are members of the consolidated P.E.R.A.
This is made possible by State legislation passed in 1995. By this legislation, the penalty for
officers who retired before the a�e of 55 was reduced from 4.0 percent to 2.4 percent for
each year that the member was under the age of 55. The effect of the resolution is to
provide parity between the members of the police consolidated P.E.R.A. and other members
of P.E.R.A.
ADOPTED RESOLUTION NO. 59-1998, APPROVING THE USE OF THE PUBLIC
EMPLOYEES RETIREMENT ASSOCIATION (PERA) EARLY RETIREMENT

UPGRADE:
Mr. Burns, City Manager, explained that the City's 1998 Capital Improvements budget
includes $50,000 for the upgrading of the Sylvan Hills lift station. Bids for the equipment
were opened on September 9, 1998. Only one bid was received, from General Repair, Inc.
in the amount of $30,420. Since the City expects to use City employees to install the new
equipment at a cost of less than $10,000, the bid amount should leave the City well within
the budget.

OPEN FORUM, VTS[TORS:
Mayor Jorgenson explained that this is the time reserved for residents to address Council on items
that are not on the agenda.
Mr. Rick Wolfe, 960 Hathaway Lane N.E., stated that he spoke to the Council at the August 24,
1998 meeting in regard to a property directly across the street from him. The home was vacant
and was not being maintained, thus creating an eyesore to the surrounding neighborhood. On
behalf of the neighborhood, he wished to thank Council and staff for their immediate response to
this concern. He noted that the property has been cieaned up, and all of the neighborhood is very
appreciative of staffs efforts.
Mr. Bruce Rehberg, 6540 East River Road, stated that he is aware of the City's sign ordinance
and their desire to keep signage at a minimum in Fridley. However, he felt that the banners which
have been allowed under the temporary sign ordinance deter more from the looks in the City than
some of the existin� signage.
There were no further questions or comments from the public.

AND ONE HALF ACRES iN STZE WITH SPECrAL ATTENTION IN TRE
ONAWAY ADDiTiON:
MOTION by Councilmember Bolkcom to waive the reading and open the public hearing at
8:03 p.m. Seconded by Councilmember Billings.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL MENIBERS VOTING AYE, MAYOR JORGENSON
DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY AND THE PUBLIC
HEARING WAS OFFICIALLY OPENED AT 8:03 P.M.
Ms. Dacy, Community Development Director, explained that the purpose of this public hearing
was to look at two potential amendments to the zoning ordinance. The first would be to create a
new district for the Onaway Addition, and the second would be to reduce the minimum lot size in
the M-2, Heavy Industrial District, from 1.56 acres to 62,000 square feet.
The Onaway Addition was ori�inally platted and subdivided in 1911, and was originally intended
for residential zonin�. However it has been zoned Heavy Industrial since 1958. In the 1973
Zoning Code, there is a 1.5 acre minimum lot size requirement. However there was an exception
created that accepted lots that were recorded before the effective date of that ordinance. In the
early 1980's the City recodified much of its ordinances, and that exception phrase was eliminated
from the M-2 zoning areas. Therefore, the 1.5 acre minimum lot size was required. Most of the
development of the Onaway District occurred during the 1950's and 1970's under the 1973
Zoning Code, which explains why much of the industrial development in the area occurred on
smaller lots.
This public hearing would establish a new special district for this subdivision. At the present time,
out of 54 industrial lots, there are only two that can meet the 1.5 acre requirement. Therefore,
staff recommended that the code be re-written for this particular area to have a minimum lot size
of 10,000 square feet. This would accommodate most of the lots in the Onaway District.
The second part of the public hearing dealt with the other parcels that would be affected by this
proposed change. These parcels are in the immediate area of the Onaway District. Staff
requested that Council change the lot size from 1.5 acres to 62,000 square feet. This would
resolve non-conforming lot sizes for at least three lots. There are also approximately eight parcels
in the area, just east of the Onaway Addition, that do have lot areas which range between 52,000
square feet to 60,000 square feet. Staff su;gested that in the immediate future the City evaluate
the potential rezoning of some of these parcels as well.
Ms. Dacy noted that the Planning Commission concurred with staf�'s recommendation. She noted
that a letter was received from Mr. Jim Rhode, of Rhode's Lock & Glass, 39 - 77th Avenue N.E.
In this letter, Mr. Rhodes stated his concern that his property would remain as one of the four
non-conforming lots. He suggested that Council consider making all of the lots in the area
conforming.
MOTION by Councilmember Bolkcom to receive the letter from Mr. Jim Rhodes, dated
September 14, 1998, into the record. Seconded by Councilmember Barnette.
CiTY COUNCIL 1VtEET(NG OF SEPTEMBER 14, 1998 PAGE 8
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL MEMBERS VOTING AYE, MAYOR JORGENSON
DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
With regard to the concerns addressed by Mr. Rhodes, Councilmember Billings, stated that he
understood the situation; however, by making the additional four lots conforming lots would
likely create problems for other property owners whose lots fell just short of the 8,000 square
feet. The City must "draw the line" somewhere. He thou�ht that this proposed change is a very
good attempt on the part of City staff to look at the entire Onaway District and try to come up
with some kind of resolution to future problems. He felt that staff had done a very good job.
Dick Reiling, Micro Matics, stated he felt that staff had done an excellent job of rectifying the
situation. He noted that his property was damaged by fire. Passage of this zoning text
amendment would allow him to rebuild his building to the size it was prior to the fire.
Doug Petty, 7805 Beech Street, thanked staff for their expedient work on this matter. He noted
that most of the residents in the area were in support of this amendment. He extended his sincere
thanks to staff.
Dick Harris, 6200 Riverview Terrace, stated that he owns parcels in Block 8 and parcels in East
Ranch Estates. He wondered if this zoning text amendment would also cover the East Ranch
Estate parcels.
Ms. Dacy responded that this zoning text amendment would cover the Onaway Addition. A
separate application and public hearing process would be necessary for the East Ranch Estates
area.
Mr. Harris stron�ly recommended that the City consider vacating the alley that runs east/west
behind the four non-conforming properties, as the alley is unused and serves no real purpose. He
also noted that when he served on the Planning Commission several years ago, he indicated that
he felt those four parcels should be acquired by the City. He felt the City should look at this
property again to make it into a viable parcel.
Mr. Harris said he believed there were differences in allowable uses for the M-1 and M-2 zoning
districts. He felt that the City should consider the effects rezoning may have on some of those
businesses.
With no further c�uestions or comments, there was a MOTION by Councilmember Billings to
close the public hearing at 8:30 p.m. Seconded by Councilmember Bolkcom.

UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, MAYOR JORGENSON DECLARED THE
MOTION CARRIED UNANINIOUSLY AND THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS
OFFICIALLY OPENED AT 8:31 P.M.
Mr. Scott Hickok, Planning Coordinator, explained that this was a rezoning request from Rosyln
Park Wesleyan Church, located at 5300 Sixth Street N.E. They also own the three lots across the
alley, along Fifth Street. At the present time, half of the property is zoned R-2, and the other half
is zoned R-3. The church was looking at a future expansion and would like to rezone the
property now to facilitate their plans. Staff determined that the rezoning rec�uest does meet the
criteria and recommended the rezonin;. The Planning Commission also approved the rezoning.
There was discussion as to the purpose of the rezoning, especially since churches are allowable
uses in both the R-2 and R-3 districts. Mr. Hickok explained that although it would not be
required, staff did not discourage the rezoning request, which was discussed at the time the
applicant came in to request an alley vacation for the property.
Mr. Hickok discussed the request for alley vacation which Roslyn Park Wesleyan Church
requested. He noted that there is an alley which currently runs through the center of the church
property. To the north is a residential area that shares the alley. One home, in particular, will
need to retain their access to their gara�e. Another property owner has his garbage collected
from the alley area. The church has put together a proposal that has been reviewed by staff,
which would allow access to those residential property owners who want to continue to have
access to the alley, while vacatin� a portion for the church's long-ran�e master plan. Mr. Hickok
provided plans to indicate the location of the proposed access drive.
Mr. Gary Brewster, Pastor of the Roslyn Park Wesleyan Church, stated it is their understanding
that if both sides of the alley were zoned the same, it would be helpful in developing the master
plan in its entirety.
With no further questions or comments, there was a MOTION by Councilmember Billings to
close the public hearing at 8:40 p.m. Seconded by Councilmember Bolkcom.

UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, MAYOR JORGENSON DECLARED THE
MOTION CARRIED UNANiMOUSLY.
Mr. Hickok, Planning Coordinator, explained that Ce11Net Data Services requested a zoning text
Amendment to allow the location development of Micro Cell facilities. The Planning Commission
considered the request and the lan�uage modifications to the City's existin� telecommunications
ordinance at their Au�ust 19, 1998 meeting. Modifications to the ordinance were kept very
specific to automatic meter reading devices. Celinet would like to provide language in the code to
allow for the placement of ANIRD (Automatic Meter Reading Devices).
Mr. Hickok provided a picture of what the micro-cell automatic meter reading devices look like.
They would, in most instances be placed on existing Northern States Power poles in
approximately 140 locations.
Mayor Jorgenson asked what impact these devices would have on children and pets in the
residential areas and the effects it would have on invisible fencing in the areas.
Robert Egerer, CellNet Data Services, stated that their company operates within a federally
licensed band width. It does not interfere with radios, ceilular phones, etc.
Councilmember Bolkcom asked how, soon residents would be converted to the automatic meter
reading system. Mr. Egerer stated it is their hope that this can be completed by the end of this
year.
Mayor Jorgenson asked if trees would need to be trimmed to allow for the signal. Mr. Egerer
explained that they do a significant amount of survey work prior to the installations. If necessary
they may be able to automatically switch the meter reading device over to another reader.

CITY COUNCiL MEETING OF SEPTENTBER 14 1998 PAGE 11
Creek north to Osborne Road. Since that time, the County has shifted the alignment, and some of
the businesses in the area have requested that concrete curb and gutter be added on the east side.
In addition, there was a short section of roadway north of 66th Avenue that does not have
concrete curb.
Mr. Haukaas noted that letters have been received from Medtronic, Inc. and Cummings Power
Generation in support of the project and the assessments. In addition, one more letter was
received requesting clarification of the assessment policy. Mr. Haukaas requested that it be
received into the record.

17. RESOLUTION APPROViNG A VACATiON, SAV #98-02. GENERALLY
LOCATED AT 5300 SIXTH STREET N E(ALLEY VACATiON, SAV #98-02, BY
ROSLYN PARK WESLEYAN CHURCH) (WARD 1):
Mr. Hickok, Planning Coordinator, explained that this is a vacation request that initially involved
vacation of the alley from 53rd Avenue to 54th Avenue. The petitioner did work to bring in a 100
percent petition from the neighborhood but discovered that two residents were interested in
retaining the alley behind their property. Therefore, he was unable to obtain the 100 percent
petition. The church worked with the neighborhood and staff to rectify the situation that would
still allow them to eliminate the alley portion on the their lot so that their master plan could
expand over the area which is currently the alley.
The Planning Commission recommended approval with the following stipulations: 1) the
petitioner records an easement to allow garage access for the homeowners at 5329 Fifth Street
N.E., 5331 Fifth Street N.E. and 5367 Fifth Street N.E., and any other property owner north who
may require al(ey access; 2) the petitioner records an easement over the alley to allow access to
the utilities; 3) the petitioner shall record a new easement to allow a utility access alternative prior
to issuance of the proposed church expansion on the west end of the existin� church structure; 4)
the petitioner shall apply for and receive a special use permit prior to expansion of their church
facility; 5) the petitioner shall record an easement to provide Amoco continued rights across the
former alley; 6) the petitioner shall provide the improved asphalt or concrete access to Fifth Street
in accordance with a plan to be submitted and approved by the City prior to installation; 7) the
petitioner shall not alter the alley across its property, or in any way limit access by the adjacent
property owners, until the new access has been completed; 8) the petitioner shall hold harmiess
the City from any damage or injury that occurs on or over the alley area in the interim, or beyond
the vacation approval and completion of the drive access aiternative for the residents still wishing
to utilize the alley north of the church property; 9) the petitioner shall provide reasonable seasonal
maintenance as necessary to assure access to and from the non-vacated portion of the alley; 10)
the petitioner shall receive approval for the turning radius which is to be adec�uate to handle
emergency vehicles; and 11) the alley shall be sufficiently labeled to prevent the entrance from
being blocked.
Mr. Hickok stated that the church has made some minor modifications to the language in
Stipulation Nos. l, 2, and 6. They have asked that the chan�es be made to read as follows: 1)
the City will retain a temporary easement to allow garage access for the homeowners at 5329
Fifth Street N.E., 5331 Fifth Street N.E., and 5367 Fifth Street N.E. and any other property
owner north who may require alley access; 2) the City will retain an easement over the alley for
utilities; and 6) the petitioner shall provide an easement and improved asphalt or concrete access
in accordance with the plan to be submitted and approved by the City prior to installation.
Mr. Hickok noted that staff was satisfied with these modifications. However, the church has
asked that the City omit Stipulation No. 8. This is something that will require further discussion.
Finally, because the property north of the church is Torrens property, and all of them are on
separate Torrens certificates, the church would prefer that the resolution bere-written so that
everything is included in the resolution, that would allow them to file the resolution on each of
those certificates. This would be less costly to them. Mr. Hickok stated that he learned of these
requests today, and he would prefer to discuss the matter with the City Attorney before a decision
is made on this matter.

Councilmember Billinjs noted that the sixty-day limit will expire September 15, 1998. He asked

stated this would be an acceptabie.

iNDUSTRiAL L.P., TO ALLOW THE CONSTRUCTiON OF A NEW
UNSCREENED LOADING DOCK ADJACENT TO THE PUBLiC RTGftT-OF-
WAY, GENERALLY LOCATED AT 7925 BEECH STREET (WARD 3)•
Mr. Hickok, Planning Coordinator, explained that Ms. Schatz is requesting a variance for her
property located at 7925 Beech Street to allow dock doors to face a public right-of-way. Code
Section 205.18.06G(2) requires that all loading docks be located in the side or rear yard and be
screened with a six-foot minimum solid screening fence if visible from the public right-of-way.
This property faces Beech Street. The location of the door is directly inside the entrance drive,
and it would be difficult to provide adequate screening. The applicant claims a hardship in that
the vehicles which are being loaded are substantially lower than the existing dock height doors
present on the building, and loading materials from the existing doors could lead to employee
injuries or material damaje.
Mr. Hickok noted that the City has approved similar variances. The Appeals Commission
recommended approval of the variance request, and staff has recommended that Council concur
with the Appeals Commission's recommendation. Mayor Jorgenson asked if the other variance
CITY COUNC(L MEETiNG OF SEPTEMBER 14 1998 PAGE 15
requests were for the property owner or the lessee. Mr. Hickok noted that one was for the
property owner, and one was to accommodate the lessee.
Councilmember Bolkcom asked if glass doors are an option.
Mr. Dan Shedlor, representing First Industrial, explained that it could be an option; however, of
the 21 buildings, 19 have overhead doors. The door is located directly at the entry, and the
vehicles which will be loaded are not large trucks.

SUBJECT: Second and Final Reading of an Ordinance creating S-3, Heavy Industrial
Onaway Addition District
The City Council approved for first reading the attached ordinance which creates a new special
district for the Onaway Addition. The ordinance also reduces the minimum lot area requirement
in the M-2, Heavy Industrial District from 1.5 acres to 62,000 square feet. The City Council at
the September 14, 1998, meeting asked staff to further research the lot area issue for those lots
affected by the lot area change.
There were fourteen lots of concern that are located along Ranchers Road and Main Street.
(see attached maps). Engineering staff verified the lot areas of each lot using the dimensions
from the recorded plat and the Auto-Cad System. Only two lots would remain non-conforming
after reducing the lot area requirement to 62,000 square feet. It was also determined that two
of the lots at the northwest corner of Ranchers Road and 79`� Avenue were in fact zoned M-1,
Light Industrial District. One of these lots was indicated on the map as M-2. Each of these lots
do meet the lot area requirement of 3/< of an acre as stipulated in the M-1, Industrial District.
Two more lots located at the southeast corner of 79`� Avenue and Ranchers Road were
discovered to be approved by a 1976 lot split for a"0" lot line building.
Given this analysis staff recommends the Council proceed to adopt the attached ordinance as
presented. Staff will continue to evaluate alternatives for the remaining non-conforming lots.
Recommendation
Staff recommends the City Council adopt the second and final reading of the attached
ordinance (the approval of the summary ordinance is also scheduled on this agenda).

SUBJECT: Central Avenue Improvement Project ST. 1998 - 4
PW98-197
Since the Council addressed the improvements of Central Avenue with the County, a number of changes
have occurred; primarily the installation of concrete curb and gutter and catch basin on the east side of
Central Avenue north of 66�' Avenue, a request by Onan to install a new driveway and water and sewer
services to their property for a scheduled Onan improvement project, and the associated engineering cost
for these improvements.
The new cost for the City project is estimated at $744,307.41. These costs will be covered through the
assessments for curb and gutter and to Onan for the additional improvements on their property and through
the State Aid off-system funding.
To continue the progress on the project, recommend the City Council approve the attached Joint Powers
Agreement with Anoka County for the Central Avenue improvement project.

TO: William W. Burns, City Manager,�,��

FROM: John G. Flora,�ublic Works Director
DATE: September 23, 1998
SUBJECT: Snow Plan
PW98-196
We kicked offour winter snow plowing program on Tuesday, September 22, 1998, with the Public Works
snow meeting/lunch. All personnel were notified of their area of responsibilities and a review of last year's
policy and procedures were presented. _
This year, with the loss of three of our employees, we will utilize Park Construction to service both the north
and south industrial areas within the City. Attached is the FIL notice information that we will provide for
each snow event as well as a review of our emergency snow removal procedure for any major event and a
recap of our redline streets which are plowed first, our 10 snow plowing districts, our six sanding districts
and a layout for the emergency snow plan if it is to be implemented.
All of our current employees have had at least one year of experience so we anticipate that this year's snow
plowing problems should be minimized.
To ensure the City has a reasonably defensible snow removal plan, I would recommend the City Council
adopt this plan by motion for 1998-1999.

PUBLIC WORKS
MEMORANDUM
TO: John Flora, Director of Public Works
FROM: Paul Lawrence, Superintendent of Public Works
DATE: September 21, 1998
SUBJECT: Winter Maintenance
I would like to alert you to a potential problem in completing snow and ice control duties this
winter in a timely manner. As we enter the winter season the Public Works Maintenance Division
is short three full-time positions (more than 10% of staffing); two due to injury and one vacant
position. The vacant position should be filled by late November or early December. One of the
injured employees will be off for another six to nine months, and the other injured employee is due
back in January.
Park Construction will plow both the north and south industrial areas (last year Park Construction
plowed the north industrial area) which will partially cover the duties of one of the injured
employees. The majority of the remaining work normally completed by the injured employees will
be split between all the remaining available units, resulting in a slightly longer snow removal time.
I would estimate that for an average six inch snowfall, plowing and sanding times will increase
about one hour; 11 to 13 hours instead of 10 to 12. The longer plowing times could cause some
customer dissatisfaction, but should not cause any unusual hardships or safety problems.
The situation could dramatically worsen if employee absences due to illness or other causes are
higher than normal, or if snow events occur in rapid succession, as there are no additional
employees in the Public Works Maintenance Division that can be reassigned to snow removal
duties.
4.02
SNOW REMOVAL OPERA'tIONS POLICIES AND PROCED[IRES
The Fridley Public Works Department is engaged in a continuing effort to provide improved
snow removal services, and yet keep expenses in balance with the current budget
appropriation. for street snow removal, the City currently is operating seven dump trucks.
One of the seven trucks is equipped with an underbody plow and a one-way plow. Fve
trucks are equipped with a one-way ptow and wing plow. All six of the trucks are equipped
with sanders. We also use one 1-ton 4x4 plus our two pothole patchers for snow removal.
Each has a one-way plow and one pothole patcher has an underbody plow. In addition to
the trucks, the City operates three front end toaders with a one-way ptow and wing. An MTS
sidewalk snowplow is used to plow the sidewalks and is augmented with our Excel Hustler
(lawn mower) blower. Also five 4-wheel drive pickup trucks are used to plow cul-de-sacs,
dead-ends, improved alleys and municipal parking lots.
The Public Works Director and Superintendent of Public Works have overall responsibility for
snow and ice control operations. The Street Supervisor has direct responsibility for
supervising the day-to-day operations, such as determining when to call out manpower,
equipment needs, ordering materials, etc. The Street Supervisor, along with the
Superintendent, utilizes weather services and reports, police reports, citizen input and
consults with the Director when necessary to determine when to initiate the snow plowing
operation.
Our policy is to begin snow removal operations after the snow storm has subsided, normally
in the early morning hours. However, if the storm ends in tate evening, the crews are called
out in an attempt to clear redline cotlector routes by morning rush hour. If a storm is
predicted to last unreasonably long, or heavy accumulations appear imminent, full snow
plowing operations begin on the redline collector routes in eight districts when
accumulations become hazardous for driving. Based on different storm situations and
severity levels, the starting time frames are Flexible. For blizzard or high wind storms,
plowing does not commence until the storm subsides. Eor economy purposes, weekend
snow storms� will be reviewed for impact and delay in starting times to minimize overtime
costs.
Whenever ice or slippery conditions develop, sanding crews are dispatched to the six
sanding districts (see attachment A- Sanding Districts). Sand and salt mixtures are spread
over ice or slippery areas. The sand provides an abrasive to help melt the ice. We are
currently using straight salt in the Metody Manor, Rice Creek Terrace and Christie
neighborhoods, to evaluate its effectiveness and economy. Salt is less effective below 20
degrees F. The Public Works "on catl" employee upon notification of slippery conditions by
the Police Department is authorized to respond with up to two additional personnel to sand
or salt slippery areas. If more personnel are needed, the "on call" employee will notify the
Public Works Superintendent or Street Supervisor of the need for additional personnel.
When snow removal operations begin, redline collector routes are plowed �rst. (See
Attachment B- Redline Collector Routes map). It takes approximately 4 to 6 hours
(depending upon the snowstorm) to complete these routes. These streets have been
declared redline routes because they allow residents and emergency vehicles faster and
better access to the highways and into alt areas of Fridley.
4.03
The City is divided into ten snow plowing districts after the redline collector routes are
plowed. (See Attachment C- Snow Plowing Districts map). In each district, there are four
alternating starting points. After each snow, the starting points will change. It takes
approximately 6 to 8 hours to complete snow plowing operations on the remaining streets.
This results in providin� clean, safe streets ] 2 to 16 hours after an average snow storm.
There are 8S cul-de-sacs and 35 dead-end streets in Fridley. It takes considerable time
before the smaller and specialized equipment can complete the cul-de-sac areas. A
snowplow may complete the regular street and a portion of the cu(-de-sac area. The major
portion of the cul-de-sac will be plowed by the special equipment within the total time of the
snow plowing operation.
Concurrent with the plowing of the streets and cul-de-sacs, the sidewalks, improved alleys
and municipal parking lots are also plowed. We do not plow bikeways or asphalt paths, we
only clear concrete sidewalks.
Cleanup operations begin on the next normal working day after the snow removal operations
have been completed. This includes cut-de-sac ctearin� and hauling, intersection clearing,
sidewalks, traffic light areas, bus stops, and wingin� back on boulevards
The snowbird vehicles parked on streets during a snow storm create problems for snow
removal operations. The City ordinance prohibits vehicles from parking on City streets during
snow emergency operations. Drivers report snowbirds to the Police Department. Depending
on available police personnel, tickets are issued, if the vehicle is not removed. Vehicles that
are blocking the street are towed away. Snowbirds that are still parked when cleanup
operations begin are towed and impounded under the direction of police personnel.
The past eight years, Park Construction, has supplemented the City of Fridley's plow crews
in Industrial Districts 2 and 4 with graders. We wilt use them again this year.
For a major storm, over 9 inches, our alternate plan comes into effect. The City is sectioned
into 9 districts (see Attachment D- Major Snow Event) and the personnel are established into
two 12 hour shift crews. The redline streets are ptowed first and then the remaining streets
in the district are ptowed. The major difference is only one pass is made down the center of
each street initially. Once all streets are opened, the crews then go back and start clearing
the roads full width. This continues until atl the streets are cleared by rotating the crews
throu�h their shifts.
MnDOT is responsible for clearing TH 47 (Llniversity Avenue), TH 65 (Central Avenue) and
I-694. Their policy is black pavement and run teams down the ighway as the snow storm
progresses.
Anoka County plows East River Road, the 44th Street bridge, Main Street to 57th, 57th to
llniversity, 49th between Main Street and llniversity, Mississippi Street, Osborne Road, 85th
and Old Central. The County also varies its starting points and attempts to clear to black
pavement.

EMERGENCY SNOW REMOVAL PROCEDURES
1. We differentiate befinreen a"normal
snowfall." A"emergency snowfall" is a
within a 24 hour period.
snowfall" and what we would call an "emergency
snowfail of 9 inches or more that is projected to fall
2. When there is a projection of an emergency snowfall, the snow plowing procedure will
begin when there is 6 inches of snow on City streets. The Police Depa�tment will have the
responsibility for notifying the Public Works Department of the existence of 6 inches of
snow on the streets.
3
4
Once the plowing for an emergency snowfall has been decided, Public Works employees
will be divided into two 12-hour shifts beginning at the time they are called out.
Each shift will consist of eight employees who will operate five dump trucks and three front-
end loaders. Each group of eight employees will be assigned to one 12-hour shift.
In addition to the eight employees assigned to each shift, another employee shall be
assigned as needed to address particular problems. He may, for example, be assigned
to digging out cul-de-sacs, plowing sidewalks, and plowing City parking lots.
The storm and/or any other circumstances surrounding the storm will dictate the use of any
additional employees. These employees will also be available to assist the Police and fire
Department with emergency operations (i.e., police calls, medical and fire emergencies).
5. The Police Department will take the primary responsibility for responding to questions from
citizens. It was agreed that the Police Department personnel will be updated
approximately every two hours. Personnel will keep maps and be responsible for plotting
the progress of the snow removal crews as reported.
6. The Public Works Superintendent has the responsibility for updating the recording machine
on a remote basis. Paul will provide information indicating the progress and general
location of the City's snowplows to provide callers with information regarding the City's
snow emergency operation.
7. As the plows are working during a major snowfall, they will

MEMORANDUM
TO: John Flora, Director of Public Works
FROM: Paul Lawrence, Superintendent of Public Works
DATE: September 24, 1998
SUBJECT: Snowplowing Policies
Ken Holmstrom and I attended a seminar sponsored by the Minnesota League of Cities Loss
Prevention regarding snowplowing policies.
The snowplowing policies that the City currently uses covers most of the areas mentioned at the
seminar with the following exceptions: •
The City should add an item regarding snow removal on sidewalks. "The City will maintain
sidewalks identified on the attached map. Sidewalk plowing will occur in conjunction with street
snowplowing. The City has limited personne( and equipment to maintain sidewalks, therefore it
will take 20 to 30 hours over two to three days to plow an average snowfaii from the designated
sidewalks. The City because of limited personnel, limited equipment and environmental concerns
will not sand or salt any sidewalks".

Re: Change Order No.1 - Fridley Community Center Project
Attached is Change Order No. 1 for the Fridley Community Center Project in the
amount of $8,154.00. This change order reflects some additional work needed
to complete the lower level facilities.
The first part of this change order is for plumbing revisions associated with the
drinking fountain and mop basin. There was no under floor waste piping for
these fixtures, nor was there a vent roughed in. The change includes cutting,
removing and patching the floor, as well as installing the needed equipment.
Cost of this portion is $1,523.00.
The second part of this change order is for painting of the open ceiling area
above the wood grid ceiling, including pipes and ductwork. Although we are
using students to paint the majority of the lower level, this work requires use of
scaffolding and/or ladders to accomplish. Because of safety concerns and the
more difficult painting surfaces, we are looking for professional painters to take
on this part. Cost of painting the ceiling area is $1,785.00.
The third part of this change order is for HVAC work required by the Fridley
Building Inspector, Ron Julkowski, after reviewing the job site and work
associated with installation of the fireplace. A new gas line, intake and exhaust
venting, and fire dampers installed in the supply and return ducts are needed.
Cost of the HVAC code revisions is $4,846.00.
I recommend the City Council approve Change Order No. 1 for the Fridley
Community Center Lower Level project #319 in #he amount of $8,154.00,
bringing the total for this project to $241,221.00.

SUBJECT: RESOLUTIONPROVIDING FOR THE ISSUANCE OF THE
CITY'S $4,185,000 GENERAL OBLIGATIONBONDS, SE�tIES 1998B
DATE: September 24,1998
Attached is the resolution provided to us by Jim O'Meara from the firm of Briggs &
Morgan. The resolution is for the sale of $4,185,000 in Taxable General Obligation Tax
Increment Bonds, Series 1998B. As you will recall, these bonds are being issued to
provide the permanent financing for the property commonly known as "Lake Pointe".
This debt issuance will provide the permanent financing that will replace the current
temporary 3 yeaz bond that matures November 1, 1998. The current temporary bond is
the second temporary issue and by state law if new debt is to be issued, it must be of a
permanent nature.
As part of the process of issuing these bonds, the City of Fridley is required to undergo a
fairly rigorous financial review process conducted by Moody's Investor Service who acts
as our bond rating agency. We were again given a Aal rating, which is the highest rating
a City of our size is capable of attaining.
Since the bids are not due until Monday, September 28 1998, the information from the
bidders will not be available until the evening of the Council Meeting. A representative
from Springsted will be present to review the results of the bidding process and make a
recommendation for the lowest underwriter or syndicate.

RESOLUTION N0.- 1998
RESOLUTION PROVIDING FOR THE
ISSUANCE AND SALE OF
$4,185,000 TAXABLE GENERAL OBLIGATION TAX INCREMENT
BONDS, SERIES 1998B
BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council (the "Council") of
the City of Fridley, Minnesota (the "City"), as follows:
1. Recitals. It is hereby determined:
(a) The Council believes it to be in
the City's best interest to
consider a permanent refinancing of
the City's General Obligation
Temporary Tax Increment Bonds,
Series 1995A, dated November 1,
1995, issued and still outstanding
in the original principal amount of
$4,090,000 (the "Prior Bonds").
The Prior Bonds refinanced the
acquisition by the Fridley HRA of
certain property and other assets
(the "Project").
(b) The Prior Bonds mature on
November 1, 1998, in the
aggregate principal amount of
$4,090,000.
(c) It is necessary for the City to
issue its Taxable General
Obligation Tax Increment Bonds,
Series 1998B (the "Bonds"),
pursuant to Minnesota Statutes,
Section 469.178 and Chapter 475, to
provide moneys for a refinancing of
the Prior Bonds and the Project,
given that the necessary tax
increment revenues are not
available for such purposes.
8.�2
(d) The Council desires that the
Bonds be issued initially in "Book
Entry Only Form" (as hereinafter
described).
2. Acceptance of Offer. The offer of
(the
"Purchaser") to purchase the City's $4,185,000
Taxable General Obligation Tax Increment Bonds,
Series 1998B (the "Bonds"), is hereby accepted,
such bid being to purchase the Bonds at a price of
$ plus accrued interest to date
of delivery, the Bonds to bear interest, to
mature, and to be subject to such other terms and
conditions as hereinafter provided. The City
Finance Director is directed to retain the good
faith deposit of the Purchaser pending completion
of the sale and delivery of the Bonds and to
return the deposits of the unsuccessful bidders
forthwith.
3. Title; Original Issue Date; Maturities;
Denominations.
(a) The Bonds shall be titled "Taxable General
Obligation Tax Increment Bonds, Series 1998B," shall be
dated October 1, 1998, as the date of original issue, and
shall be issued forthwith on or after such date as fully
registered bonds. The Bonds shall be numbered from R-1

multiple thereof of a single maturity. The Bonds shall
mature on February 1 in the years and amounts as follows:
Year Amount Year Amount
2002 $ 75,000 2008 $490,000

As may be requested by the Purchaser one or more term
8.03
Bonds may be issued conforming to the foregoing principal
repayment schedule, and corresponding additions made to the
provisions of the applicable Bond(s).
(b) Book Entry Only System. The Depository Trust
Company, in New York, New York, pursuant to a certain
Blanket Issuer Letter of Representations to be executed by
the City and accepted by said Trust Company (as the same may
be supplemented or superseded, and including all provisions
thereof and rules, procedures or practices referenced
therein, the "Letter of Representations"), or any of its
successors to its functions hereunder (the "Depository"),
will act as securities depository for the Bonds, and to this
end:
(i) The Bonds shall be initially issued and, so
long as they remain in book entry form only (the "Book
Entry Only Period"), shall at all times be in the form
of a separate single fully registered Bond for each
maturity of the Bonds; and authorized denominations for
each maturity of Bonds shall be deemed to be limited
during the Book Entry Only Period to the outstanding
principal amount of that maturity. While in such book
entry form, the Bonds are sometimes hereinafter
referred to as being in "Book Entry Only Form."
(ii) Upon initial issuance, ownership of the
Bonds shall be registered in a bond register maintained
by the Bond Registrar described in this Resolution in
the name of CEDE & CO., as the nominee (it or any
nominee of the existing or a successor Depository, the
"Nominee").
(iii) With respect to the Bonds, neither the City
nor the Bond Registrar shall have any responsibility or
obligation to any broker, dealer, bank, or any other
financial institution for which the Depository holds
Bonds as securities depository (the "Participant") or
to the person for which a Participant holds an interest
in the Bonds shown on the books and records of the
Participant (the "Beneficial Owner"). Without limiting
the immediately preceding sentence, neither the City,
nor the Bond Registrar, shall have any such
responsibility or obligation with respect to (A) the
accuracy of the records of the Depository, the Nominee
: 1 �
or any Participant with respect to any ownership
interest in the Bonds, or (B) the delivery to any
Participant, any Beneficial Owner or any other person,
other than the Depository, of any notice with respect
to the Bonds, including any notice of redemption, or
(C) the payment to any Participant, any Beneficial
Owner or any other person, other than the Depository,
of any amount with respect to the principal of or
premium, if any, or interest on the Bonds, or (D) the
consent given or other action taken by the Depository
as the registered owner of any Bonds (the "Holder").
For purposes of securing the vote or consent of any
Holder under this Resolution, the City may, however,
rely upon an omnibus proxy under which the Depository
assigns its consenting or voting rights to certain
Participants to whose accounts the Bonds are credited
on the record date identified in a listing attached to
the omnibus proxy.
(iv) The City and the Bond Registrar may treat as
and deem the Depository to be the absolute owner of the
Bonds for the purpose of payment of the principal of
and premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds, for the
purpose of giving notices of redemption and other
matters with respect to the Bonds, for the purpose of
obtaining any consent or other action to be taken by
Holders for the purpose of registering transfers with
respect to such Bonds, and for all purpose whatsoever.
The Bond Registrar, as paying agent hereunder, shall
pay all principal of and premium, if any, and interest
on the Bonds only to or upon the Holder or the Holders
of the Bonds, as shown on the Bond Registrar's bond
register, and all such payments shall be valid and
effective to fully satisfy and discharge the City's
obligations with respect to the principal of and
premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds to the
extent of the sum or sums so paid.
(v) Upon delivery by the Depository to the Bond
Registrar of written notice to the effect that the
Depository has determined to substitute a new Nominee
in place of the existing Nominee, and subject to the
transfer provisions applicable to the Bonds, references
to the Nominee hereunder shall refer to such new
Nominee.
8.0 'rJ
(vi) So long as any Bond is registered in the
name of a Nominee, all payments with respect to the
principal of and premium, if any, and interest on such
Bond and all notices with respect to such Bond shall be
made and given, respectively, by the Bond Registrar or
the City, as the case may be, to the Depository as
provided in the Letter of Representations.
(vii) All transfers of beneficial ownership
interests in each Bond issued in book-entry form shall
be limited in principal amount to authorized
denominations and shall be effected by the Depository
with the Participants for recording and transferring
the ownership of beneficial interests in such Bonds.
(viii) In connection with any notice or other
communication to be provided to the Holders pursuant to
this Resolution by the City or the Bond Registrar with
respect to any consent or other action to be taken by
Holders, the Depository shall consider the date of
receipt of notice requesting such consent or other
action as the record date for such consent or other
action; provided, that the City or the Bond Registrar
may establish a special record date for such consent or
other action. The City or the Bond Registrar shall, to
the extent possible, give the Depository notice of such
special record date not less than 15 calendar days in
advance thereof to the extent possible.
(ix) Any successor Bond Registrar, in its written
acceptance of its duties under this Resolution and any
paying agency registrar agreement, shall agree to take
any actions necessary from time to time to comply with
the requirements of the Letter of Representations.
(x) In the case of a partial prepayment of a
Bond, the Holder may, in lieu of surrendering the Bond
for a Bond of a lesser denomination, make a notation of
the reduction in principal amount on the panel provided
on the Bond stating the amount so redeemed.
(c) Termination of Book-Entry Only System.
Discontinuance of the Depository's services and termination
of the book-entry only system may be effected as follows:
�: 1 .
(i) The Depository may determine to discontinue
providing its services with respect to the Bonds at any
time by giving written notice to the City and
discharging its responsibilities with respect thereto
under applicable law. The City may terminate the
services of the Depository with respect to the Bonds if
the City determines that the Depository is no longer
able to carry out its functions as securities
depository or the continuation of the system of book-
entry transfers through the Depository is not in the
best interests of the City.
(ii) Upon termination of the services of the
Depository as provided in the preceding paragraph, and
if no substitute securities depository is willing to
undertake the functions of the Depository hereunder can
be found which, in the opinion of the City, is willing
and able to assume such functions upon reasonable or
customary terms, or if the City determines that it is
in the best interests of the City that the Beneficial
Owners be issued certificates for the Bonds, the Bonds
shall no longer be registered in the name of the
Nominee, but may be registered in whatever name or
names the Holder of the Bonds shall designate at that
time, in accordance with paragraph 11 hereof. To the
extent that the Beneficial Owners are designated as the
transferee by the Holders, the Bonds will be delivered
to the Beneficial Owners.
(d) Letter of Representations. The provisions in the
Letter of Representations (the execution and delivery of
which by the City being hereby ratified and approved) are
incorporated herein by reference and made fully a part of
this Resolution to the same extent as if set forth in full
herein, and if and to the extent that any provisions of this
Resolution or the Bonds are inconsistent or in conflict with
the provisions of the Letter of Representations, the
provisions in the Letter of Representations shall control.
4. Purpose; Temporary Bonds; Certain Covenants
Respecting Payment of Bonds. The Bonds shall
provide moneys for payment and permanent
refinancing of the City's Prior Bonds. It is
8.�7
hereby found, determined and declared that such
refunding is necessary or desirable for the
reduction of debt service cost to the City and/or
the adjustment of the maturities of the Prior
Bonds in relation to the sources for their
repayment. All of the proceeds, including all
investment earnings thereon, of the Prior Bonds
have heretofore been expended by the City for the
uses and purposes for which the City issued said
Prior Bonds. The balance in the debt service
account heretofore established by the City for the
payment of the principal of and interest on the
Prior Bonds has been taken into account in
appropriately sizing the Bonds. The City has
observed and complied with all of its obligations
and covenants made by the City in connection with
the issuance of the Prior Bonds.
In addition to the Bonds being general obligations of the
City, certain tax increments derived from certain tax increment
financing districts within Redevelopment Project No. 1 of the
Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of
Fridley, Minnesota, as provided in the Tax Increment Pledge
Agreement described in paragraph 21 of this Resolution, shall be
pledged to the payment of the Bonds. The estimated collection of
the above described tax increments is not less than 200 of the
original cost of the Project which was refinanced through the ,
issuance of the Prior Bonds.
5. Interest Rate. The Bonds shall bear interest
payable semiannually on February 1 and August l of
each year (each, an "Interest Payment Date"),
commencing August 1, 1999, calculated on the basis
of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day
months, at the respective rates per annum set
forth opposite the maturity years as follows:

6. Redemption. The Bonds shall be subject to
redemption and prepayment at the option of the
City on February l, 2004, and on any date
thereafter at a price of par plus accrued interest
to date of redemption. Redemption may be in whole
or in part, and if only part, the specific Bonds
to be prepaid shall be chosen by lot by the Bond
Registrar. Bonds or portions thereof called for
redemption shall be due and payable on the
redemption date, and interest thereon shall cease
to accrue from and after the redemption date.
Published notice of redemption shall in each case
be given if and to the extent required by
applicable law, and mailed notice of redemption
shall be given to the paying agent and to each
affected registered owner of the Bonds.
To effect a partial redemption of Bonds, the Bond

special fund to be designated the "Taxable General
Obligation Tax Increment Bonds, Series 1998B Fund"
'(the "Fund") to be administered and maintained by
� the City as a bookkeeping account separate and
apart from all other funds maintained in the

shall be maintained in the manner herein specified
until all of the Bonds and the interest thereon
have been fully paid. There shall be maintained
in the Fund two separate accounts, to be
designated the "Refunding Account" and "Debt
Service Account," respectively.
(i) Refunding Account. The proceeds of the sale of the
Bonds, less such proceeds of the Bonds (if any) as may be
used to pay issuance expenses or hereinafter directed for
deposit into the Debt Service Account, plus any other
available municipal funds ("Other Funds"), if any, as may be
required to adequately fund the Refunding Account to
accomplish its purposes, together with all investment
earnings on funds held in the Refunding Account, are hereby.
pledged and appropriated and shall be credited to the
Refunding Account. The Refunding Account may be invested
only in securities maturing or callable on such dates and
bearing interest at such rates as shall be required to
provide funds sufficient, together with any cash or other
funds retained in the Refunding Account, and together with
8.22
monies made available from the debt service account for the
Prior Bonds, to pay all principal and interest due on the
Prior Bonds on November 1, 1998, whether due thereon by
virtue of regularly scheduled debt service or prior
redemption. The moneys in the Refunding Account shall be
used solely for the purposes herein set forth and for no
other purpose, except that any surplus in the Refunding
Account shall be remitted to the City. Such Other Funds, if
any, as may be required to fully fund the Refunding Account
as described above are hereby appropriated for said purpose.
(ii) Debt Service Account. To the Debt Service Account
there are hereby pledged and irrevocably appropriated and
there shall be credited: (1) all accrued interest and unused
discount received upon delivery of the Bonds which is not
then deposited into the Refunding Account; (2) any balance
remaining on November l, 1998, after payment thereon of all
of the principal of and interest on all of the Prior Bonds,
in the debt service account created for and allocated to the
Prior Bonds pursuant to the Council's Resolution awarding
the sale and setting the terms of the Prior Bonds; (3) the
tax increments and other funds (collectively; the "Tax
Increments") received by the City pursuant to the Tax
Increment Pledge Agreement referred to in paragraph 21 of
this Resolution, but only in such amounts as shall be
necessary, toqether with other monies in the Debt Service
Account and available for such purposes, to pay, when due,
the principal of and interest on the Bonds; (4) all
collections of any ad valorem taxes hereafter levied for the
payment of the Bonds; (5) all investment earnings on funds
held in the Debt Service Account; and (6) any amounts
received by the City upon termination of the Refunding
Account. The foregoing funds are hereby pledged to the Debt
Service Account, but only in such amounts and at such times
as may be necessary, together with other available funds
therein (and the same shall be used solely), to pay the
principal of and interest on the Bonds, when due.
17. 105$ Debt Service Coverage. It is hereby
determined that the Tax Increments will be in the
principal amount of at least 20% of the cost of
the Project being refinanced through the issuance
of the Bonds and that the estimated collections of
Tax Increments will produce at least 5% in excess
of the amount needed to meet, when due, the
8.23
principal of and interest on the Bonds. The City
Clerk is directed to file a certified copy of this
Resolution with the office of Anoka County
Property Records & Taxation and to obtain the
certificate of said office required by Minnesota
Statutes, Section 475.63.
18. General Obli ation Pled e. The full faith and
credit and taxing powers of the City are hereby
pledged to the payment of the principal of and
interest on the Bonds, and in the event of any
current or anticipated deficiency of funds in the
Debt Service Account of amounts needed to make any
such payment, when due, the Council shall levy ad
valorem taxes on all taxable property in the City
and/or issue Definitive Bonds in such amounts as
may be necessary to rectify such deficiency. If
the balance in the Debt Service Account is ever
insufficient to pay all principal and interest
then due on the Bonds, the deficiency shall be
promptly paid out of any other funds of the City
which are available for such purpose, and such
other funds may be reimbursed with or without
interest from the Debt Service Account when a
sufficient balance is available therein.
19. Records and Certificates. The officers of the
City are hereby authorized and directed to prepare
and furnish to the Purchaser, and to the attorneys
approving the legality of the issuance of the
Bonds, certified copies of all proceedings and
records of the City relating to the Bonds and to
the financial condition and affairs of the City,
and such other affidavits, certificates and
information as are required to show the facts
relating to the legality and marketability of the
Bonds as the same appear from the books and
records under their custody and control or as
otherwise known to them, and all such certified
copies, certificates and affidavits, including any
heretofore furnished, shall be deemed represen-
tations of the City as to the facts recited
therein.
20. Defeasance. When any obligation of a Bond has
8.24
been discharged as provided in this paragraph, all
pledges, covenants and other rights granted by
this Resolution to the registered owner of that
Bond (with respect to the obligation thereof so
defeased) shall, to the extent permitted by law,
cease. The City may at any time discharge any or
all of such obligation(s) with respect to any
Bond, subject to the provisions of law now or
hereafter authorizing or regulating such action,
by depositing irrevocably in escrow, with a
suitable institution qualified by law as an escrow
agent for this purpose, cash or securities which
are backed by the full faith and credit of the
United States of America, bearing interest payable
at such times and at such rates and maturing on
such dates and in such amounts as shall be
required and sufficient, subject to sale and/or
reinvestment in like securities, to pay said
obligation(s}, which may include any interest
payment on such Bond and/or principal amount due
thereon at a stated maturity (or if irrevocable
provision shall have been made for permitted prior
redemption of such principal amount, at such
earlier redemption date).
21. Tax Increment Pledge Agreement. The Council
hereby approves and authorizes the Mayor and City
Manager to execute that certain Tax Increment
Pledge Agreement, dated as of October 1, 1998,
respecting the Bonds, which Agreement has been
presented to the Council for its consideration and
which is between the City and the Housing and
Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of
Fridley, Minnesota, with such modifications, if
any, as such officers shall approve, as evidenced
by their execution and delivery thereof. The Tax
Increment Pledge Agreement, as actually executed
and delivered in connection with the issuance of
the Bonds, is hereby made fully a part of this
Resolution to the same extent as though set forth
in full herein.
22. Continuing Disclosure Undertaking. The
Council hereby acknowledges that the Bonds are
subject to continuing disclosure requirements
8.25
under Rule 15c2-12(b)(5) (the "Rule") of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Consequently,
on the date of actual issuance and delivery of the
Bonds, the City will execute and deliver a
Continuing Disclosure Undertaking (the
"Undertaking") whereunder the City will covenant
to provide, or cause to be provided, annual
financial information, including audited financial
statements of the City, and notices of certain
material events, as specified in the Undertaking.

been submitted to the City for the Council's
consideration is hereby approved, and the officers
of the City are hereby authorized to execute and
deliver that Undertaking in the proposed form or
in such final form thereof reflecting such
modifications thereof as are consistent with the
Rule, requested by the original purchaser of the
Bonds and acceptable to the City officials who
shall execute the Undertaking (which consent shall
be conclusively evidenced by their execution and
delivery thereof). The Undertaking, as so
executed and delivered by the City, shall be as
much a part of this Resolution as if set forth �in
full herein and shall be for the benefit of the
owners from time to time of the Bonds.
23. Severability. If any section, paragraph or
provision of this Resolution shall be held to be
invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the
invalidity or unenforceability of such section,
paragraph or provision shall not affect any of the
remaining provisions of this Resolution.

RE: Warden Oil Site
Dear Dr. Burns:

* Also Licensedin
Wisconsin & Colorado
** Also Licensed in
New York
Enclosed please find a signature page for the funding agreement of the Warden Oil
PRP site group. Changes in the agreement, including those for additional funding,
require a re-execution of the underlying documents: essentially a requirement of
"amendment only by consensus."
In this instance, given the City's willingness to continue its participation with an added
contribution of just under $3,200 ($3190.08, to be exact), execution of this additional
document would be appropriate and necessary.
The previous, original agreement was, I believe, signed by the Mayor on behalf of the
City. It would now need to be executed again, either by the Mayor or you, as City
Manager. This, accompanied by a check for the assessed amount, would need to be
forwarded either directly to the Chairman of the PRP group, or through this office.
Please let me know at your earliest convenience if you have questions or I can be of
any other, similar assistance to you in this matter.
Sincerely,

Additional Settlement for MPRS Lawsuit
William W. Burns
City Manager
I received the attached correspondence from Charles LeFevere, the attorney for the cities involved
in the MPRS lawsuit. Mr. LeFevere has requested that the cities involved agree to a$15,000
settlement offer. He believes the offer would eliminate the need for reporting requirements relative
to our police officer selection processes.
It would appear that the City of Fridley's share of the $15,000 is minor, and that Mr. LeFevere's
effort is worthwhile.
I recommend Council's approval of the attached resolution.

CONFIDENTIAL: ATTORNEY-CLIENT PRIVILEGED MATERIAL
City Managers of Defendant Cities
Charles L. LeFevere �'�fc��
September 18, 1998
Starks and Fields v. MPRS, et al.
As you may recall, the above referenced case was remanded (returned) to the District Court for
reconsideration of the District Court's original attorneys fees award. The District Court made a
substantial reduction to the award of attorney's fees to plaintiffs, but it also took the opportunity
to amend its order relating to police officer selection. The order formerly required on-going
reporting to the court and court oversight over any future use of the MPRS testing process. The
court has now amended the order to expand the court's reporting requirements and oversight to
a� written examination used for police officer selection. This places the defendant cities under
the jurisdiction of the court with an ongoing requirement to provide some sort of report on
testing procedures for the next five years.
This new aspect of the court's order was of sufficient concern to the League of 1Vlinnesota Cities
Insurance Trust (LMCIT) that it agreed to challenge the amendment in an appeal to the Court of
Appeals. If an appeal is brought, and if it is successful, the cities will not be required to submit
any further reports to the court. However, if the appeal is not successful, reports will be
required. Such reporting will involve at least the burden and expense of record keeping and the
advice and assistance of legal counsel to prepare and submit the required reports to the court.
This case has been reassigned to a new judge (Judge Solum has retired) and it is not known what
reportin will be required by the court. `�
Any such reports will be submitted to the attorney for the plaintiffs, thereby exposing the cities
to possible costs for plaintiffs' attorney's fees and expert witness costs. If the court reviews the
reports, and for some reason finds the testing activities of cities to be unlawful or questionable,
CLL-150285
MP i 10-2
14.02�
the cities could be in the position of defending the new testing processes as they have had to
defend the MPRS testing process.
I have been discussin� with the plaintiffs' attorney the possibility of reaching an agreement for a
complete settlement of this case so no further reporting to the court would be required, the
damages would be paid, and this case would finally be put to rest. �x��-a.�-P hPP" ah�P rn red�e
the plaintiffs' demand for such a�.eltleme�t-te-�-�S,QQ4-�.Plus�--th?� damages and attorneys fees,
whic.". ha•�� a�*'Pa��been awarded by the court) The avera�e cost of this�t�.l�x��r�t�er cit�
would be $417.
The MPRS executive committee has recommended this settlement to its members and to the
other defendant cities and has recommended that the $15,000 be spread among the defendants on
the basis of the formula that has been a reed to for other damages. Attached is a spreadsheet
showing the results of such an allocation of the a itiona 15,0 among the defendant cities.
Also attached is a draft resolution for consideration by your city council approving the proposed
settlement. We would appreciate it if you could present this to your city council at the earliest
opportunity.
This settlement, if approved by the cities, will be contingent upon final dismissal of the case. It
is possible that the District Court will de �inP r� ap��,rove such a settlement, and we will be forced
to proceed with the appeal. However, both the attorney for the plaintiffs and I believe it is highly
likely that, if both parties agree, a dismissal will be approved by the court.
I believe that the cities have a good chance of succeeding in the appeal of this case. However,
success is not certain, and if the appeal is unsuccessful, the cost of further proceedings in District
Court, together with the commitment of city staff resources necessary' to submit necessary
reports, would quickly exceed the amount proposed as a settlement.
Plaintiffs' attorney stated that this proposed settlement is acceptable only for the very near term
futur.e.�In fact, he o�iginally stated that it would have to be accepted by September 18, 1998. I
informed him that the proposal would be submitted ot the cities but that approval by all 36 cities
by that date would not be possible. Nevertheless, I believe that it is important that the cities act

AUTHORIZING PAYMENT THEREOF
BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Fridley, Minnesota, as follows:
Section 1. Background.
1.1. The City of Fridley (hereinafter referred to as the "City") is a defendant in the
cases of Starks v. Minneapolis Police Recruitment System, et al.; Hennepin County District Court
File No. EM93-219; and Fields v. Minnesota Police Recruitment System, et al.; District Court
File No. EM93-218.
1.2. The Court has concluded in said actions that the defendants violated Minnesota
Statutes, Chapter 363, the Minnesota Human Rights Act, in the administration of the Minnesota

screening and that defendants are obligated to pay certain damages and penalties.
1.3. The City has previously approved a formula for the allocation of costs and
damages among the defendants.
1.4. The order of the Court also requires ongoing reporting to the Court of information
about all written tests used by the City for police officer selection until January 1, 2004.
1.5. The Council has been presented with a proposal for settlement of these cases
under which the defendant cities would collectively pay the sum of Fifteen Thousand Dollars
($15,000) in addition to damages, costs, and fees previously awarded by the Court if counsel for
plaintiffs and defendant are successful in securing a complete dismissal of the cases.
1.6. The Council has determined that it is in the public interest to settle the cases to
avoid the administrative burden, commitment of staff resources, attorneys' fees and costs
associated with ongoing reporting to the Court.
1.7. The MPRS has proposed that payment of the settlement be allocated among the
defendant cities in accordance with Attachment One to this resolution, which allocation is the
same as that used for costs and damages previously awarded by the Court, and which allocation
the Council finds to be fair and reasonable.
14.04
Section 2. Approvals and Authorizations.
2.1. Settlement of the cases for the total payment of Fifteen Thousand Dollars
($15,000) plus damages, costs and fees previously awarded by the Court is approved, contingent

accordance with the allocation set forth in Attachment One.
2.3. The City Manager and City Finance Director are authorized and directed to make
payment for the City's share of such settlement upon notification from legal counsel that final
settlement has been reached and dismissal has been secured.
2.4. This resolution does not amend any previous agreement among the defendant
cities for allocation of damages, costs, disbursements, plaintiffs' attorneys' fees, defense costs,
and defendants' attorneys' fees.

CITY OF FRIDLEY PROJECT SUMMAIZY
DESCRIPTION OF REQUEST:
William Zbikowski has requested consideration of a rear yard variance to allow an 8' vs 25' setback to allow
construction of a 100' x 200' addition to his industrial facility at 7500 Commerce Lane.
SUMMARY OF ISSUES:
Code Section 205.18.03.D ( 3) requires a rear yard depth of not less than 25'. Currently the Zbikowski
building has a 108. 57 average rear lot setback. The petitioner proposes a 100' x 200' addition. The 100'
dimension will project toward the west (rear) property line. The 200' dimension will align with the north
building face and then project southward creating an "L" shaped footprint. The addition will extend 70'
south of the existing building.
Though detailed building plans and elevations have not been prepared, the petitioner has indicated that
loading dock doors will be placed on the east face of that portion of the building that projects south of the
existing building. These doors will face Commerce Lane and will require planting aisle screening to mitigate
the impact of overhead doors facing the public right of way. Because the overhead doors are technically in
the sideyard, a variance is not required, but planting to mitigate the visual impact will be important.
HARDSHIP STATEMENT:
Our plans are for an addition of 100' x 200' to our existing building. According to the enclosed cerhficate of survey, we
have only 108.5 Average feet remaining. By building 100 feet wide would leave 8.5 feet to the property line. The
building to the west of us is 75 feet from the property line, which makes 83.5 feef between buildings.
Due to present and future placemenf of machinery and aisles required, our plans require the 100'...
PREVIOUSLY GRANTED VARIANCES:
In 1990 the City of Fridley granted a variance from 25 feet to 8 feet for Humberto Martinez, 7786 Beech
Street N.E.
APPEALS COMMISSION RECOMMENDATIONS:
The Commission recommended approval of variance request VAR #98-26 with the following
stipularions:
1. The building grounds be modified to meet the current minimum landscape
requirements.
2. Additional parking stalls shall be provided to meet Code requirements. The precise
number shall be based on the use of space within the addition.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Staff recommends that the City Council concur with the Appeals Commission.

Request: A 17' variance to allow the construction of a 100' x 200' addition to his
industrial facility at 7500 Commerce Lane.
Site Description/
History:
In May 1973, a permit was issued for a 100' x 100' concrete block machine shop.
In September 1982, a permit was issued for a 200' x 130' addition to the building
constructed in 1973.
In July 1995, a permit was issued to re-roof the building.
In 1996, straight line wind caused debris from an adjacent building to destroy
roof-top units at this industrial facility.
Analysis Code Section 205.18.03.D ( 3) requires a rear yard depth of not less than 25'.
Currently the Zbikowski building has a 108. 57 average rear lot setback. The
petitioner proposes a 100' x 200' addition. The 100' dimension will project
toward the west (rear) property line. T'he 200' dimension will align with the
north building face and then project southward creating an"L" shaped
footprint. The addition will extend 70' south of the existing building.
Though detailed building plans and elevations have not been prepared, the
petitioner has indicated that loading dock doors will be placed on the east face
of that portion of the building that projects south of the existing building.
These doors will face Commerce Lane and will require planting aisle screening
to mitigate the impact of overhead doors facing the public right of way.
Additional landscape on the site would aid in screening the new dock door
location from the public right-of-way. Currently the site plan would not meet
the minimum requirements for landscape materials. If the request is
approved, staff recommends that the site be brought into compliance with the
minimum landscape requirements of the Heavy Industrial district.
The City Building Official, Ron Julkowski, has met with the petitioner to
analyze the use of space in the building. As planned there will be fire
separations within the building. These fire separations combined within the
overall size of the building will allow the building to be constructed without a
60' clear open-space surrounding the building. Otherwise, once industrial
complexes reach a certain size, if they have not been designed with fire
separations inside, a 60' open-space is required between the building and the
property line.
Lot coverage with the addition is 27.5%. Code allows 40% for a 1-story

building. Assuming half of the new space is occupied by manufacturing
purposes and half of the space is to be used for warehouse storage purposes,
30 additional parking spaces will be required.
PREVIOUS SIMILAR VARIANCES GRANTED:
In 1990 the City of Fridley granted a variance from 25 feet to 8 feet for
Humerto Martinez, 7786 Beech Street N.E.
APPEALS COMMISSION RECOMMENDATIONS:
The Commission recommended approval of variance request VAR #98 this request,
staff suggests the following stipulations:
1. The building grounds be modified to meet the current minimum
landscape requirements.
2. Additional parking stalls shall be provided to meet Code requirements.
The precise number shall be based on the use of space within the addition.
RECOMMENDED ACTIONS:
Staff recommends that the City Council Concur with the Appeals Commission.

OUR PLANS ARE FOR AN ADDITION OF 100 FEET X 200 TO OUR EXISTING BUILDING.
ACCORDING TO ENCLOSED CERTIFICATION OF SURVEY, WE HAVE ONLY 108.5
AVERAGE FEET REMAINING. BY BUILDING 100 FEET WIDE WOULD LEAVE 8.5 FEET
TO PROPERTY LINE. THE BUILDING WEST OF US IS 75 FEET FROM THE PROPERTY
LINE, WHICH MAKES 83.5 FEET BETWEEN BUILDINGS.
DUE TO PRESENT AND FUTURE PLACEMENT OF MACHINERY AND AISLES REQUIRED,
OUR PLANS REQUIRE THE 100 FEET WIDE OF THE BUILDING. DUE TO COLD

WE WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR DECISION ON THIS MATTER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

APPEALS COMMISSION MEETING, SEPTEMBER 23, 1998 PAGE 2
Mr. Hickok explained that the petitioner, Mr. Zbikowski, has requested a seventeen (17)
foot variance to allow the construction of a 100 foot by 200 foot addition to his industrial
facility at 7500 Commerce Lane. The property is zoned M-2, Heavy Industrial, and is
surrounded by Industrial property.
Mr. Hickok stated that at the September 9th meeting, the Appeals Commission
considered a rear yard variance to allow an 8 foot versus 25 foot rear yard setback.
Due to the absence of the petitioner, this item was tabled until the September 23
meeting. He stated Mr. Kuechle had asked about the relationship of this building to the
building west. He had answered that the previous building was blown down during a
straight-line wind two years ago. That building's east building face ran parallel to the
east lot line, set 75 feet back from the property line. The new building runs parallel to
Osborne Road with only 75 feet at its corner touching the property line. Mr. Hickok
presented a diagram of the site.
Mr. Hickok stated that in 1990 the City of Fridley granted a variance from 25 feet to 8
feet for Humberto Martinez at 7786 Beech Street N.E. Staff has no recommendation on
this case since this variance request is within the same parameters as the Martinez
variance. However, if the Commission chooses to approve the request, staff
recommends that the following stipulations be made part of the approval:
1. The building grounds shall be modified to meet the current minimum landscape
requirements.
2. Additional parking stalls shall be provided to meet Code requirements. The
precise number of stalls shall be based on the use of the space within the
addition.
Mr. Zbikowski stated they are ready to proceed based on the City's requirements.
Mr. Jones asked if the parking and landscape requirements are acceptable.
Mr. Zbikowski stated, yes. He stated they do intend to put in a row of trees along the
driveway so that the door will be less visible. The door will be painted the same color
as the building.
Mr. Zbikowski stated that they have approximately 3,000 yards of dirt on the property in
preparation of the building and he has been told that this dirt cannot be moved outside
the area.
Mr. Hickok stated he is not aware of any laws which would restrict the movement;
however the Public Works Department does require a Land Alteration Permit and it is
possible that this is a requirement under that permit.

Ms. Beaulieu asked why the addition could not be constructed to comply with the
current zoning code.
Mr. Zbikowski explained that the size is necessary in order to provide for the machinery
space. The machinery utilizes approximately 25 feet in width alone. Additionally, they
need to provide adequate isles befinreen. They do not want to compromise safety.
Ms. Mau asked how far the company's south property line extends and whether it
extends beyond the bituminous surface in the vacant lot.
Mr. Zbikowski stated that Toolkraft owns the vacant lot as well.
(Mr. Vos arrived at 7:40 p.m.)
