NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that I, Scott J. Lund, Mayor of the City of Fridley, do hereby proclaim Saturday, June 14, 2003, as: STAND FOR CHILDREN DAY in the City of Fridley, Minnesota, and urge all citizens to support this day by dedicating themselves to the task of improving the quality of life for all children from this day forward. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the City of Fridley to be a�xed this 9th day of June, 2003. SCOTT J. LUND, MAYOR . / ` UlY OF FRIDLEY To: From: Date: Re: AGENDA ITEM CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF June 9, 2003 William W. Burns, City Manager �!'�� Richard D. Pribyl, Finance Director Debra A. Skogen, City Clerk June 4, 2003 First Reading of an Ordinance Repealing Chapter 504, Taxicabs, and Amending Chapter, 11, General Provisions and Fees, Repealing the License Fees For the past three to four years the city has issued three to four taxicab licenses per year with an average revenue of $108. We have had three companies operating one or two cabs per company. This year, however, the city has been receiving an overwhelming number of phone calls from companies who would like to license their taxicabs. Bloomington Taxi has sent 39 cabs to come in for a license. In addition, we have had calls from Viking Taxi (for 22 cabs) and United Taxi requesting that their fleets come in to be licensed. We believe they are coming to the city to get a license due to the low license fee to enable them to operate out of the Airports. Prior to this year, we understand they had been obtaining their taxi licenses from the City of St. Bonifacius, who increased the price of their license fee this year. The Metropolitan Airports Commission (MAC) amended their ordinance requiring taxicabs to be licensed by a city, village or other political subdivision of the State of Minnesota ("municipalit}�'). The reason this was done was to allow the taxicabs to continue to operate if the MAC revoked or suspended - their license. They must obtain a mechanical inspection similaz to the cities of Minneapolis, St. Paul or Bloomington, or as required by the MAC at the owner's expense. These three cities and the MAC have rewritten their ordinances and are now very extensive. In addition, their fees are high and they limit the number of licenses they issue per year. Due to the overwhelming request for taxicab license applications and the low cost of the license, city employees are spending an inordinate amount of time processing taxicab licenses. The average time - between the city clerk office and police department is approximately two hours. We are currently not covering the cost of our employees and overhead on this license. It is staffs position at this time that this license be repealed in its entirety. The alternative would be to prepare an ordinance rewriting the ta�cicab licensing and increase the fees to recover the fees. Staffs' belief is that once the fees are raised, the companies will no longer come to the city due to the increase in fee. In order to accommodate the licenses that have been issued and are pending, the ordinance reflects current licenses that have been approved will remain in effect until Apri130, 2004. Applications received prior to June 9, 2003, may be approved for a period not to exceed three months. Staff recommends a motion holding the first reading of an ordinance repealing Chapter 504, Taxicabs ;; and amending the Chapter 11, General Provision and Fees to repeal the fees. .e 1 - ORDINANCE NO. AN ORDINANCE REPEALING CHAPTER 504, TAXICABS, ANDAMENDING CHAPTER 11, GENERAL PROVISION AND FEES, OF THE FRIDLEY CITY CODE The Fridley City Council hereby finds after review, examination and recommendation of staff that: SECTION 1 Be it hereby ordained by the City Council of the City of Fridley that Fridley City Code Chapter 504. Taxicabs, be hereby repealed in its entirety. Current taxicab licenses already approved by the City Council may remain in effect for the license year and expire on Apri130, 2004. Pending applications received prior to June 9, 2004, may be approved for a period of time not to exceed more than three months after the effective date of this ordinance.

Skogen, City Clerk First Reading: Second Reading: Published: 2 Scott J. Lund, Mayor CITY OF FRIDLEY PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, MAY 21, 2003 CALL TO ORDER: Vice-Chairperson Kondrick called the May 21, 2003, Planning Commission meeting to order at 7:29 p.m. ROLL CALL: Members Present: Dave Kondrick, Larry Kuechte, Dean Saba, LeRoy Oquist, Brad Dunham Members Absent: Diane Savage, Barb Johns Others Present: Stacy Stromberg, Planner Michael Juaire, PMJ Group Pam Reynolds, 1241 Norton Avenue NE Cindy Mabel, 1214 Norton Avenue NE Erin Mitchell, 6499 Christenson Lane NE Tom Myhra, 6360 Able Street NE APPROVE THE MAY 7 2003 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES: MOTION by Mr. Oquist, seconded by Mr. Saba, to approve the May 7, 2003, Planning Commission meeting minutes. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, VICE-CHAIRPERSON KONDRICK DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. PUBLIC HEARING: Consideration of a Preliminary Plat, PS #03-03, by Michael Juaire, for the construction of new townhomes, generally located at 1275 Norton Avenue NE. MOTION by Mr. Kuechle, seconded by Mr. Saba, to open the public hearing. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, VICE-CHAIRPERSON KONDRICK DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED AND THE PUBLIC HEARING OPENED AT 7:32 P.M. Ms. Stromberg stated Michael Juaire of PMJ Group, Inc., is requesting to replat the property located at 1275 Norton Avenue to create five separate Iots from part of Lot 9, Auditor's Subdivision #89, in order to construct a 4-unit renter occupied townhome development. Ms. Stromberg stated this is the second of three plat requests submitted by Michael Juaire for a townhome development on Norton Avenue. The third request will be heard before the Planning Commission on June 4, 2003. Ms. Stromberg stated the property is zoned R-3, Multi-Family, as are all surrounding properties. The existing home and garage were built prior to 1949. Both of these structures will be removed to accommodate the proposed townhome development. 3 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, MAY 21. 2003 PAGE 2 Ms. Stromberg stated that City Code requires that lots in the R-3, Multi-Family, zoning district have a minimum lot area of 15,000 square feet for a 4-unit dwelling. The subject property is 16,108 square feet which exceeds the minimum requirement. The proposed townhome development also meets all setback and lot coverage requirements. Ms. Stromberg stated City staff recommends approval of this preliminary plat request with stipulations as it provides additional housing opportunities for Fridley residents. If the preliminary plat is approved, staff recommends the following stipulations: 1. The final landscape plan shall meet code requirements for number of and size of plantings and be reviewed and approved by City staff prior to issuance of a building permit. 2. All landscaped areas shall have irrigation installed. 3. Brick type and application on elevations and other external building materials shall be reviewed and approved by City staff prior to issuance of a building permit 4. Columns shown on the right and left elevations of the building plans shall be constructed using a masonry material. 5. Shakes shown on the front and rear elevation shall be wrapped around to the right and left elevations. 6. A grading and drainage plan shall be submitted and approved by the City's engineering staff prior to issuance of a building permit. 7. A utility plan shall be submitted and approved by the City's engineering staff prior to issuance of a building permit. 8. Individual services will be required for each unit. 9. A 12-foot utility and drainage easement shall be granted along the entire no�thern edge of the property prior to final plat. 10. All elements of the building shall meet the current building code and be approved by the City Building Official. 11. The petitioner shall pay an applicable park dedication fee of $1,500 per unit prior to the issuance of any building permits. 12. The petitioner shall provide proof that any existing wells or individual sewage treatment systems located on the site are properly capped or removed. 13. A Development Agreement outlining the Developer's obligation to install utilities, etc. will be prepared by the City and shall be signed by the Petitioner, prior to final plat approval. Mr. Saba asked if there is any intent to sell these units or are they always going to be owner- occupied? Ms. Stromberg referred to the petitioner to answer that question. As far as she knew he planned to rent them in the beginning. But by platting the units, he is allowed to sell them off individually. Mr. Michael Juaire, PMJ Group, stated all the units on Norton Avenue are planned for rent-to- own. He has a little over 40 rental townhomes. Over the past five years, he has received significant interest in the rent-to-own type of plan by those people who can't afford the down payment and would like to enter into a separate program that would spread that down payment over a period of time. That is the plan for these units. Mr. Kondrick asked Mr. Juaire if he was in agreement with the stipulations as presented by staff. � PLANNING COMMISSION MEETiNG, MAY 21, 2003 PAGE 3 Mr. Juaire replied, yes. Ms. Pam Reynolds, 1241 Norton Avenue NE, stated this is the second group of townhomes Mr. Juaire is proposing. One is underway, one is soon to be underway, and one is still in the planning stages. Norton Avenue is a dead-end street. At the last Planning Commission meeting, the residents brought up issues regarding the increased traffic on that street, which doesn't seem to be a concern except to those who live there. She has been reading the Comprehensive Plan and she knows that the Planning Commission uses that as a guideline for making some of their decisions. Under future land use policies, Item No. 5 says "to promote preservation and rehabilitation where possible to retain neighborhood character". That particular house is an eyesore because the people who lived there have moved out and it just deteriorated. Building four townhomes on that lot which is a little over a third of an acre is not retaining the neighborhood character. Ms. Reynolds stated the Comprehensive Plan states: "to encourage neighborhood participation and redevelopment and revitalization projects through active citizen participation and involvement in the process". Those who own homes on Norton pretty much feel like the process has been decided long before they ever had any input. The concept of if "he owns it, he can pretty much do what he wants to° is only partially true. The Planning commission entered into an agreement under the Comprehensive Plan through laws set up through the State of Minnesota. In June 2001, the Council said that the current housing densities met the regional goal, yet the Comprehensive Plan raised them from 3.5 units per acre for single-family and 9 units per acre for multi-family to 12 units and up for multi-family per acre and up to 30 for larger, upscale high-end apa�tments. The neighbors see this housing as nothing more than making their neighborhood a congested area of housing. Chairpe�son Diane Savage said at the last public hearing that this will be an asset to their neighborhood — to add people, cars, and issues as they currently have is not an asset. When you put a lot of people in a small space, you have additional crime issues. It also adds issues for the schools and the school buses. Ms. Reynolds stated she did not know why the Council agreed in June 2001 to add 450 households to the City between now and 2020, yet the Comprehensive Plan talks about greatly exceeding 500 housing units. Only 3.3 acres are undevelopable — planned for multi-family. The rest of it has to come from redevelopment. The maps that she has seen do not list any of Norton Avenue as redevelopment. She sees nothing at City Hall that shows her a list of undesirable and inefficient properties. The small space that she owns is efficient for her lifestyle, and she is sure that people who live in a much larger home and on much larger lots in Fridley find that their accommodations meet their lifestyle. She did not move into Fridley to end up in a townhouse development. Had that been part of her goal, she would have moved to a townhouse development. Ms. Reynolds asked if Mr. Juaire currently owns the property, because according to Anoka County, the property has not yet changed ownership. Can something be added to the stipulations that Mr. Juaire needs to have a little respect for the people in the neighborhood and for state law, etc. During the early parts of March, his construction crews violated Minnesota state laws. They have violated her personal property rights by his surveyordigging in her yard. She has asked that to stop; and, hopefully, it won't happen again. At the last Planning Commission meeting she attended, they had discussions about landscaping, trees, things like that. She would like the City, Planning Commission, staff, and others think about what it would be like to have this done to their neighborhood. To increase the tra�c, increase possible crime, increase activity day in and night, have hammers and compressors, etc., going at 6:30 a.m. (when Mayor Lund assured them that 8 o'clock would be the start time). These are all things that need to be considered. 5 . PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, MAY 21, 2003 PAGE 4 Ms. Reynolds stated that even the renters on Norton Avenue feei a duplex fits in with the neighborhood. There is no reason to pick No�ton Avenue as a redevelopment site because that doesn't fit in with the Comprehensive Plan. It's not listed as a redevelopment site. Again, she would like the Planning Commission, the City Council, the staff to try and remember that, although they are meeting the needs of the Comprehensive Plan, they are not meeting the needs of the citizens who live here, work here, and would like to stay here. M�. Kondrick asked Ms. Stromberg whether Mr. Juaire does own the property? Ms. Stromberg replied, yes, she believed that he did. Ms. Cindy Mabel, 1214 Norton Avenue, stated when she first moved to Norton Avenue, it was all single-family homes and lots of open space, and it was zoned R-2. During the 1980s, many duplexes were built on this street because that fit with the R-2 zoning. At some point, it changed to R-3 zoning. The only reason she believed it could have changed was because of this apartment building at the end of the street. She assumes 1284-1294 Norton is zoned R-3. There weren't very big yards, but it was still a neighborhood, and people still knew each other. ; She would like to get some information about when that zoning changed and who was notified, because nobody ever contacted her about it. Now because it was zoned to R-3 back then, Mr. Juaire has the opportunity to come in and put in these multi-unit dwellings. This will very much change their neighborhood. Ms. Mabel stated the property at 1275 Norton where Mr. Juaire wants to put in four units with double car garages, she does know that there is not going to be any space on this street from the overflow from the apartments and with all of the tightness of the double bungalows. There is no extra parking. She is very much concerned what is going to happen down at the cul-de- sac because he has eight units going in there, 1152-1170. Mr. Juaire says they have double garages and there are also spots in front of the garage. If these places have two to three bedrooms like he says, they are probably going to have two cars. She just doesn't see where these people are going to park. M�. Oquist pointed out there is also a 17-foot driveway in front of the each of the garages. Mr. Juaire has a two-car garage plus a two-car driveway for each unit. Mr. Kondrick stated there is enough parking for two cars, two cars in front of each garage, for example. Ms. Mabel stated she is curious about Stipulation 11 -- $1,500 per unit for this park dedication fee. She would like to know if Mr. Juaire paid this for this 8 units, because she doesn't remember it for the first project. Mr. Kondrick replied he is on the Park & Recreation Commission, and he can assure her that Mr. Juaire did pay the park dedication fees. Ms. Mabel stated that given the density that they expect to see here, she has every reason to believe that the property values are going to be reduced. This has been her nest egg. She has been here 32 years; she has raised two children on just her income. She also had a question about the square footage of these yards. At the first Planning Commission meeting, Mr. Juaire said these units were going to have 1,700 square feet a piece. She has watched these units being built, and she didn't believe they have 1,700 square feet. 0 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING. MAY 21, 2003 PAGE 5 Mr. Oquist stated these are two-level units. Ms. Mabei stated she understands that. She asked if the City even listens to the neighbors, because a lot more neighbors will be coming to the City Council meeting if the Planning Commission approves it. She would also like to know if they can ask Mr. Juaire right now how many units he wants to put on the other end. The third unit to be put in. Those are perfect starter homes. There is nothing wrong with either one of those homes. Having lived on that street for 32 years, she has been in every home on that street. The owner of the smaller house has spent all kinds of money remodeling, and he just put on a new roof about two years ago. He is being offered more than the asking price so of course he is going to be tempted to sell. Both of them are being offered more. She didn't know why Norton Avenue has to take on the burden of another 8 more units and 25-foot lots when she sees other properiy for sale in Fridley where maybe he could build. Why does it have to be all condensed in Norton Manor as he calls it? Mr. Tom Myhra, President and Chair of the Concerned Citizens of Fridley, 6360 Able Street NE, stated he wondered if the Planning Commission members were ever told that they are a separate body. They do not work for the City Council; they are beholden to the public. When he was on the Planning Commission, they would have never dreamed of asking City staff to tell them how to vote. When the Commission members see themselves as working for the City, and they forget their purpose which is actually to represent the people as an individual and as a group, then their purpose is useless. Mr. Kondrick asked Mr. Myhra if he had something to say about this plat request. Mr. Myhra stated he didn't feel that the people have been represented, they didn't know about this redevelopment. . Mr. Kondrick stated he has been a member of this Commission for many years, and not one of the Commission members take their position lightly. Mr. Paul Norton, 1251 Norton Avenue, stated the developer is just trying to put too many people in too small a space. They are getting to the point where there is no where to park on that road, especially in the wintertime. In the winter time, he has trouble with people trying to park right across his driveway. Ms. Reynolds stated she has one question regarding the sheathing put on the outside of the home. She recently watched a program where there is considerable concern regarding wafer board sheathing having issues with mold and mold deterioration, water damage, etc. Is Mr. Juaire using wafer board sheathing as it is a cheaper product which helps reduce the cost of building new construction, and is this building material alfowed in Fridley? Ms. Stromberg replied, no, she did not know the answer to those questions. She could check with the Building Official, and they could also ask Mr. Juaire if he is indeed using it. Mr. Juaire stated each of the units they are dealing with today are going to be 1,600 square feet, slightly under 800 square feet on the lower level and slightly over 800 square feet on the upper level. The 1,700 square foot units that were talked about at the end of the block are 800 square feet on the lower level and 900 square feet on the upper level. Identical units are planned for the third phase as to the 8. Regarding Ms. Reynolds' last question, the Uniform Building Code does allow OSB, Saran Board, a commonly used material but not for townhomes. Townhomes are required to have an entire periphery of one-hour burn which is a 7 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, MAY 21, 2003 PAGE 6 special water-resistant chips and sheathing which is what they put on these units. OSB is allowed on garage but on the building the residence itself, a one-hour bum is required around the entire building which is how these are being constructed. Mr. Kondrick asked if there will be enough room to have two cars parked in front of each garage. Mr. Juaire stated Ms. Stromberg can verify the minimum requirement in front of the garages. For example the design on the first addition is the driveway runs perpendicular to the drive that goes into the garage, and the space in front of the garage is a minimum of 20 feet. In addition to that, there is a 25-foot drive. The same thing is on the second addition, but the driveway isn't going perpendicular — it's just going straight out to the street. Actually the minimum setback is 25 feet, and the setback from the curb to the garage is 35 feet. Mr. Kondrick asked how many feet are from the back of the proposed unit to the property line. Ms. Stromberg stated it is 33%z feet. Mr. Oquist asked if Mr. Juaire owns the property? Mr. Juaire replied, yes, he closed on it a month ago, and iYs not surprising that Anoka County has not caught up within a month's timeframe. Mr. Saba asked him if he has attempted to call a neighborhood meeting to let the neighbors know what his plans are for the second or third phases, just to get their input and maybe answer some questions before it comes to a Commission meeting. Mr. Juaire replied that is a good idea. There are people that talked with a worker at the construction site of the first addition that was very much in favor of it but didn't come to the meeting. Mr. Saba stated there apparently have also been some problems with construction crews starting too early. Mr. Juaire replied the construction crews don't start before 7:00 a.m. which is the requirement. Mr. Saba stated he had heard that they were not to start before 8:00 a.m. Ms. Stromberg replied that was not a stipulation. Construction hou�s are from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. Mr. Saba stated he just picked up on some general disrespect for the neighboring properties, digging without asking permission, etc., and asked if those issues could be addressed up front with the neighbors. Mr. Juaire stated they certainly could. MOTION by Mr. Saba, seconded by Mr. Oquist, to close the public hearing. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, VICE-CHAIRPERSON KONDRICK DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED AND THE PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED AT 8:14 P.M. ��• PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, MAY 21, 2003 PAGE 7 Mr. Saba asked about the townhomes reducing the character of the neighborhood. they are probably starting to encroach on the character of a neighborhood and might be really starting to change it. Is there any consideration at all at staff level for that part of the Comprehensive Plan, and where do they cross the line where they completely change the character of the neighborhood? They have gone from single-family homes and a few duplexes to apartments and now townhouses. Ms. Stromberg replied every time Mr. Juaire has submitted a plat application, the Development Review Committee that consists of numerous staff members meets to discuss the development, the neighborhood, what the building is going to look like, what is best going to fit into the neighborhood, and those types of things. As long as Mr. Juaire is meeting all the requirements of the City Code, staff really can't recommend denial of the request. She does believe that before his next plat goes to the Council on June 9, they are going to be looking a bit further into his third phase; but, again, she doesn't see how it can be denied as long as he is meeting the requirements. Mr. Saba stated the concept of changing the character of the neighborhood from single-family residential to a bunch of townhomes is quite an impact. Mr. Kuechle stated the impact really happened when the property was zoned R-3. Ms. Stromberg replied the 1986 Zoning Map shows this neighborhood as zoned R-3. She would have to dig back further to find out when it was rezoned. Mr. Kuechle stated he would recommend to City Council approval of the plat, although he hears what the neighbors are saying in terms of it changing the character of the neighborhood. This proposal does meet all the City Code requirements. It is zoned R-3, the proposal is R-3, and Mr. Juaire doesn't need any variances to build. It's changing a single-family residence to four residences. It's adding 3 more units so it might change the traffic slightly. Mr. Oquist stated he would agree with that. He thinks they have enough stipulations to control the landscape of the building. It is R-3 zoning and, they can't look at the third development because they don't know what that is going to be. They have to just look at the current development. Mr. Saba stated what Mr. Oquist and Mr. Kuechle said is true, but he would urge the developer to meet with the neighbors to answer some of their questions as there is a lot of anxiety regarding the development. Other than that, he agrees with what has been said about-the R-3 zoning. This area is zoned for this development, and any objections should have been made at the time of the rezoning. Mr. Dunham replied he is okay with the preliminary plat request. Townhomes are nice housing, and he believed the neighbors are going to surprised at how nice it will be. Townhomes also sell welL Mr. Kondrick stated he would vote in favor of approval of the preliminary plat. MOTION by Mr. Kuechle, seconded by Mr. Oquist, to recommend to City Council approval of preliminary plat, PS #03-03, with the following stipulations: � PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, MAY 21, 2003 PAGE 8 1. The final landscape plan shall meet code requirements for number of and size of plantings and be reviewed and approved by City staff prior to issuance of a building permit. 2.

M-03-71 INTRODUCTION One year ago, Paul Bolin, Scott Hickok, and I met with Mr. Buzick, the property owner of 1201 73 '/2 Avenue and the tenant, Gerald Haluptzok, to discuss the on-going, non-compliant issues with the above referenced property that needed to be corrected by August 1, 2002, and that were to remain in compliance throughout the year. Non-compliance of the stipulations set forth would result in the review, by City Council, of the special use petmit needed to operate a salvage yazd in the City of Fridley. Periodically, throughout 2002, inspections were conducted, only to find the property in violation of the same non-compliant issues discussed in the previous meeting. During the process of reviewing Central Auto Parts 2003 application for renewal of the junkyard license, another inspection revealed a continued failure to comply with stipulations set forth in Special Use Permit #73-07. Mr. Buzick from Cen�al Auto was present at the August 8, 1973, meeting. Stipulations from SUP #73-07 and requirements of Fridley City Code 205 not being met include the following: 1. No cars will be outside the fence. Upon the 2003 inspection, numerous junk vehicles were stored in the customer parking lot, as were in 2002. The parking lot has remained full of junk vehicles with no room for customer or employee parking. 2. No cars should be piled higher than the fence. In addition to the SUP stipulations, City Staff has reviewed quarterly reports from Anoka County Environmental Services dating back to March 25, 2002. During review, Staff determined that Central Auto has been in violation of the same or similar violations all along. At that time, Staff added the following requirement to the 2002 written notification of non-compliance: 12 1. Make all improvements toward the Anoka County Hazardous Waste Report. During the 2003 review of the reports, there has been continued failure to remove fluids from vehicles prior to storage, spent lead-acid batteries are not being stored appropriately, and copies of the hazardous waste manifest are not being submitted to the Metro Manifest and Collecrion Postal Drop. PLAN1vING STAFF RECOMNIENDATION City Staff recommends that the City Council hold a public hearing on Monday, July 14, 2003, to review the special use permit that allows the operation of salvage yards in Fridley. 13 / � cmr oF FRIDLEY TO: FROM: AGENDA ITEM COUNCIL MEETlNG OF JUNE 9, 2003 WILLIAM W.

PRIBYL, FINANCE DIRECTOR SUBJECT: FINAL CHANGES INAPPROPRIATIONS FOR THE GENEI�4L FUND, SPECIAL REVENUE FUNDS AND CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT FUN� FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBEIt 31, 2002 DATE: June 4,1003 Attached you will find the final changes in the appropriations to the budget for the year ended December 31, 2002. These changes are similar to those that we have brought to Council this time of year for the past number of years as we prepare to publish the City of Fridley's Annual Financial Report. These changes are in keeping with Chapter 7 of the City Code. The majority of the changes are based on departmental initiatives that have caused an increase in eff`iciency of the department or a Y better delivery of service to our customers. The changes to the General Fund are occurring either from within departmental budgets or drawing from the Emer�ency Reserve. In no case is this increasing the overall General Fund Budget. The changes that are shown in a few of the Special Revenue Funds are because these are funds that traditionally have not been established a.s part of the normal budgeting process due to the unknown aspect of each of their activities. Staff's recommendation is for the City Council to pass the attached resolution and complete the budget cycle for 20U2. � l� RESOLUTION NO. — 2003 A RESOLUTION AU'THORIZING FINAL CHANGES IN APPROPRIATIONS FOR THE GENERAL FUND, SPECIAL REVE�tUE FUNDS, AND CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT FUND FOR THE YEAR ENDED 2002 WHEREAS, the City of Fridley has involved itself in initiatives that provide for future chazges and modifications ' that will allow for a better delivery of services, and WHEREAS, the City of Fridiey had not incorporated these and other necessary changes into the adopted budget for 2002.

PASSED AND ADOPTED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FRIDLEY THIS 9TH DAY OF J[TNE, 2003. ATTESTED: DEBRA A. SKOGEN - CITY CLERK 31 SCOTT J. LUND - MAYOR �° Fridley Police Department , Memorandum � � To: Bill Burns �� From: Dave Saliman Date: June 4, 2003 Re: Manager's License-Sean McAllister Staff has conducted an investigation into the background of Sean McAllister and recommends a motion denying a Manager's license to him. City Code Section 603.20 states in pa�t that the individual's references "will vouch for the sobriety, honesty, and general good character of the applicant". We are recommending denial of this license based upon concerns in the following areas: -Criminal History -Current active misdemeanor warrant from the State of Georgia dating back to 1989 for a failure to appear. -The police department investigates the facts set forth on the application to determine its completeness and accuracy. One of the questions is in regards to if the applicant has "ever been arrested or convicted of any crime or misdemeanor (other than traffic violations)". Mr. McAllister did mention part of his criminal history but in addition to not mentioning the arrest concerning the warrant from Georgia, there was no mention of the incident that occurred on March 5�', 2003 at Sean's in which there is a signed formal complaint against him for assaulting two persons. This has not yet been adjudicated but it certainly constitutes an arrest. These assaults followed a letter from the Pubfic Safety Director requiring that any assaults be reported to police and the police were not notified until later by one of the victims. One of the concerns with Sean's was the number of assaults and the number of unreported assaults. In this case the applicant to be a manager is part of the problem. -City Code 603.20 states in part "No person shall work as a manager of a premises licensed under this chapter...unless such person within (7) working days after first being so employed shall apply for a license to engage in such business". Violation of any section of 603.20 is guilty of a misdemeanor. Mr. McAllister has continued to work as a manager continually and did not submit an application until May 12�', 2003. -Mr. McAllister failed to meet with the investigator to discuss his background during a prescheduled appointment and has failed to contact the investigator following several attempts by the investigator to do so. 32 It is recognized by the State of Minnesota and the City of Fridley that there is a public interest in regulating the on sale liquor industry. Pa�t of the regulation includes the honesty and good character of those persons involved in the industry. Mr. McAllister has displayed past behavior as is exhibited by his criminal history and more recent criminal behavior that is contrary to those stated traits. Staff recommends denial of this license. I have attempted to contact Mr. McAllister personally to notify him of my intent to recommend denial of this license and he has not retumed by call as of the date of this memo. 33 City of Fridley Receipc # `� � � �' 643 I University Avenue NE Lictnse # Fridley, i�iN 55432 Expirarion Date (612)571-3450 APPLICATION FOR RENEWAL OF �i_��TAGERIAI.

M-03-78 INTRODUCTION Michael Juaire, PMJ Group, Inc. is requesting to replat the property located at 1275 Norton Avenue, to create 5 separate lots from part of Lot 9, Auditor's Subdivision #89, in order to construct a 4-unit town home development. At the May 21, 2003, Planning Commission meeting there was some discussion from neighbors regarding the zoning and Comprehensive Plan designation of Norton Avenue. There were also questions about how additional development on Norton Avenue would change the character of the neighborhood and construction hours. The following is staff's response to those inquiries. Staff has done some research and determined that the Norton Avenue block was rezoned from R-1, Single Family to R-3, Multi-Family on August 19, 1963. A public hearing was held at the June 13, 1963, Planning Commission meeting and was continued to the June 27, 2003, PC meeting to deliver notices to the neighbofiood. At the June 27, 2003, PC meeting, no one was present in opposition of the rezoning. The rezoning request was approved by the City Council on August 19, 1963. It appears that the vision of the City Council was to allow higher density in this area. Mr. Juaire's requests are bringing the neighborhood closer to that vision. The petitioner for the 1963 rezoning request, Mr. George Norton, stated at the June 13, 1963, public hearing, that this was the only remaining residential portion in the area and therefore, he wished to rezone so that the full value of the property could be obtained. The Comprehensive Plan designates the 2020 future land use of this property as "Redevelopment." Redevelopment is described in the Comprehensive Plan as a form of community revitalization that transforms undesirable elements into desirable elements that � reflect the community collective vision. The purposes of redevelopment are to remove older blighted structures and to provide the opportunity for more efficient land uses and eliminate inefficient land uses and under utilized parcels. The Norton Avenue block is categorized under the Redevelopment Area #1 in the Comprehensive Plan, which also includes the salvage yards. It states that, "The multiple family properties located along Norton Avenue may be eligible for rental rehabilitation programs. The City should also pursue aggressive code enforcement to assist in eliminating any negative images regulating from illegal outdoor storage or other code enforcement problems." The redevelopment section for this area doesn't specify that this area should be used for anything other than Multi-Family. Anytime something new is constructed in a neighborhood, the existing neighbors may view the changes negatively and as an alteration to the character of the area. However, the intent of the 1963 rezoning was to accommodate multi-family in this neighborhood. Adding these additional town home developments is'consistent with the decisions made by the City Council 40 years ago. Fridley City Code states that construction hours are between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m., Monday through Friday and befinreen the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m. on Saturdays and legal holidays. Any work activity on Sundays is unlawful. Mr. Juaire and his construction crew will be obligated to meet these requirements. PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION At the May 21, 2003, Planning Commission meeting, a public hearing was held for PS #03-03. After receiving public comment and a brief discussion, the Planning Commission recommended approval of plat request, PS #03-03, with the stipulations as presented. THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
