CITY COUNCIL MEETING
CITY OF FRIDLEY
JUNE 23, 2008
The City Council meeting for the City of Fridley was called to order by Mayor Lund at 732 p.m.
ROLL CALL:
MEMBERS PRESENT: Mayor Lund
Councilmember-at-Large Barnette
Councilmember Saefke
Councilmember Varichak
Councilmember Bolkcom
OTHERS PRESENT: William Burns, City Manager
Richard Pribyl, Finance Director
James Kosluchar, Public Works Director
Scott Hickok, Community Development Director
Fritz Knaak, City Attorney
PRESENTATIONS:
A1 Swintek, CenterPoint Energy — Presentation to Fire Department
A1 Swintek, CenterPoint Energy presented a check to Fire Chief Berg in the amount of $2,500 to
help purchase protective clothing for the firefighters.
Mayor Lund thanked CenterPoint Energy for their generous gift.
STATE LEGISLATIVE UPDATE:
Senator pon Betzold said that this year's legislative session started on February 12 and ended
on May 18. This was not a budget year but the constitution requires the budget to balance. The
current budget had a$3.0 million deficit from one year ago. The spending funds were close to
accurate but the revenues came in lower than projected. The budget did balance, but they may
have the same problem next year.
Representative Carolyn Laine said she is very optimistic that the Fridley Northstar Station will
be built because of the sales tax increase. This extra sales tax expense must go to the County
fund but whatever money is left over may be applied towards the Fridley station. The Fridley
station is on the top of the wish list and grants will also be applied for to seek additional funding.
Representative Tom Tillberry said the best thing about this year's session was the
transportation bill that was passed. It will help fix bridges and roads so they are safe for
everyone.
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 23, 2008 PAGE 2
Representative Kate Knuth said this year the focus was on a lot of basic items like the
transportation bill, education and health care. The bonding bill request was over $4.0 billion but
ended at $800.0 million, and the central corridor is a major piece of this bill.
Senator Betzold said that the tax bill was vetoed last year but passed this year. Local
government aid was sought and Fridley will benefit with an 84% increase. Legislative limits
came along with LGA increases.
Mayor Lund said that it does not matter about the levy limits for Fridley because of the Charter
restrictions. The validity of the LGA sounds good but is difficult to budget. Some communities
do not rely on LGA at all because it is not a guarantee.
Councilmember Barnette thanked Representative Laine for her enthusiasm for the Fridley
Northstar station.
Councilmember Bolkcom said she appreciated all the efforts on the TIF district, as this will
help develop the area and make Fridley a better community.
Mayor Lund asked if the revenues for next year would be better.
Senator Betzold said it appears that there will be at least a$1.0 billion deficit next year not
including inflation, so next year will most likely be a brutal session.
Giacomo Greco from Cagliari, Sardinia (Foreign Exchange Student)
Sue Davis introduced Giacomo Greco and said he has been a foreign exchange student at Totino
Grace and soon will be leaving to go back home. Giacomo presented a plaque from the City of
Cagliari to Mayor Lund and the Councilmembers.

FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 23, 2008 PAGE 6
Councilmember Bolkcom asked who would bear the cost for the transfer of title, lot survey, etc.
Mr. Hickok said that all costs would be paid by the new owner of the property.
Councilmember Bolkcom said that the first step in this process is to declare the property as
surplus, not to decide who will buy the property.
Mr. Hickok said that is correct. Utility easement and other pertinent issues will also need to be
worked out.
Councilmember Bolkcom asked if the property needed to be owned by the City to maintain the
easement.
Mr. Hickok said that if we sell the property, the City will still maintain the utility and drainage
easements.
Fritz Knaak, City Attorney, said that the issue tonight is to determine the lots surplus property.
In order to sell the property it first must be determined if the property is needed by the City. If
the property is not needed by the City for any useful purpose, the city may sell the property but is
not required to sell the property.
Councilmember Bolkcom asked if this process was the standard procedure.
Mr. Hickok answered that this is the same process that has been done in the past., but the City
has never experienced two buyers.
Mayor Lund said that on the map, these lots look big enough to build a home on the property.
Mr. Hickok said that the map is very deceiving. Buffalo Street appears to go through but it is a
right of way. There are also issues with the setback to the site, creek preservation and shore land
overlay. If the land is not able to be built on and has no use to the City, the land may as well be
owned by the adj acent property owners.
Justin Chapweske, 530 Dover Street, said this area could not have any development on it. He
said he is an environmentalist and would intend to keep the property in its natural state. His
property is on the top of a hill and the grade of the hill is about a 45 degree slope. Erosion
prevention is an issue and he feels it is his personal responsibility to maintain this property to
protect his home. The property does not have sufficient vegetation, erosion problems are present
and deterioration of trees is an issue. Currently a lot of trees have fallen which creates hazards in
the area. The debris on this site is also choking out the growth of new vegetation.
Mr. Chapweske said there is not access to this lot. The marketability of this lot is only of
interest to adjacent land owners. He is interested in buying all 5 lots or splitting and sharing the
responsibility with Mr. LaGesse.
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 23, 2008 PAGE 7
Mayor Lund asked how long Mr. Chapweske has lived on the property.
Mr. Chapweske answered two years.
Mayor Lund asked if he currently mows or keeps up the property.
Mr. Chapweske answered no.
Mayor Lund asked Mr. Chapweske if he understood that there will be limited use of the
property.
Mr. Chapweske answered yes.
Mayor Lund asked if the restrictions for usage of this property would be in place for any future
owners of the property and if that would be a problem.
Mr. Chapweske said he would want the restrictions in place for future owners in order to keep
the land in its natural state.
Mayor Lund asked if the property was split, if the owners would be able to put up a fence to
define the split.
Mr. Hickok said they could put up a rail fence, but not a privacy fence.
Mr. LaGesse, 7951 Broad Avenue, said he has lived on the property for 30 plus years. At the
last meeting he did not have enough information to make a decision. After meeting with staff
and his neighbor, he would want the City not to sell the lots, sell Mr. Chapweske 3 lots and do
not sell the other 21ots, or sell Mr. Chapweske 3 lots and the other two lots to him. He asked if
they could all meet to discuss the details.
Mayor Lund said that he was sensitive to Mr. LaGesse's and Mr. Chapweske's needs but
tonight's focus is to determine if the property is surplus property. The next step would be to
decide to sell or not to sell and work out the split.
Councilmember Saefke asked for clarification that tonight is to decide if the property is surplus
and if it is, whether a time could be set for the adjacent property owners to meet with staff to
come to an agreement to work out the details on a split.
Mayor Lund said that is correct.
MOTION by Councilmember Bolkcom to close the public hearing. Seconded by
Councilmember Saefke.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, MAYOR LUND DECLARED THE
MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY AND THE PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED AT

FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 23, 2008 PAGE 8
9. Consider Revocation of Special Use Permit SP #06-08, for Fridley Shop and Stop
(Formerly Sinclair Fridley), to Operate a Service Station with Fuel Sales in a C-2,
General Business Zoning District, Generally Located at 6071 University Avenue NE
(Ward 1) (Continued May 5, 2008).
MOTION by Councilmember Saefke to remove this item from the table and open the public
hearing. Seconded by Councilmember Bolkcom.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, MAYOR LUND DECLARED THE
MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY AND THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS OPENED
AT 8:37 P.M.
Scott Hickok, Community Development Director, said that on May 5, 2008, the City Council
continued a public hearing from February regarding the revocation of Special Use Permit, SP
#06-08, for the property located at 6071 University Avenue NE. The hearing was continued
because the Fridley HRA was possibly going to purchase the property. The HRA would likely be
changing the use of the property, making the SUP unnecessary, giving the City Council reason to
revoke the permit under the new ownership.
Mr. Hickok said the sale of the property has been unexpectedly further delayed, and it may be
many months before negotiations are complete. Since the property owner of the Fridley Shop
and Stop (formerly Sinclair Fridley), has kept the property in compliance for several months now
and there have been no public complaints regarding the property's condition, staff believes it is
unreasonable to hold the public hearing open again for several months.
Mr. Hickok said Staff recommends that the City Council open and close the public hearing to
consider revocation of Special Use Permit #06-08 for Fridley Shop and Stop, located at 6071
University Avenue NE. In a separate action, staff recommends that the City Council not approve
the previously prepared resolution to revoke Special Use Permit, SP #06-08. If the HRA
completes its sale of the property at a later date, legal counsel advises that the HRA clear the
special use permit from the record on this property if the intent is that it not be used as an
automobile service station under the current stipulations. Without revocation following a public
hearing, a special use permit will remain on record for this property even after the use
discontinues.
Councilmember Saefke asked why there is a delay in purchasing the property.
Mr. Hickok said the HRA wants to make sure there is no contamination on the site.
MOTION by Councilmember Saefke to close the public hearing. Seconded by Councilmember
Bolkcom.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, MAYOR LUND DECLARED THE
MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY AND THE PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED AT

Generally Located at 6071 University Avenue NE (Ward 1) (Tabled May 5, 2008).
MOTION by Councilmember Saefke to deny the resolution revoking Special Use Permit, SP

UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, MAYOR LUND DECLARED THE

11. First Reading of an Ordinance Amending the Fridley Home Rule Charter, Chapter 2.
City Council Organization, Chapter 3. Procedure of Council, Chapter 4. Nominations
and Elections, Chapter 5. Initiative, Referendum, and Recall and Chapter 6.
Administration of City Affairs.
Richard Pribyl, Finance Director, said at the Council meeting of June 9, a public hearing was
held to review the changes suggested by the Charter Commission. These changes were seen as
keeping the Charter in compliance with State Statutes and also modifying some language to keep
it consistent throughout the document.
Mr. Pribyl said during the public hearing, Councilmember Bolkcom asked about the existing
language in "Section 3.02 SECRETARY OF COLJNCIL." She asked whether the current
language implied that a secretary was required to be in attendance at Council conference
meetings and that minutes be taken. After discussing this issue with the City Attorney, it was
determined that the current language is still appropriate and does not imply that a secretary be
present at conference meetings or that minutes are required. This conclusion continues to be
based on the fact that no action is being taken by Council at any of these types of ineetings.
Based on the review with the City Attorney and since there were no suggested changes as a
result of the public hearing held on June 9, 2008, staff recommends the approval of the first
reading of the ordinance making the changes.
MOTION by Councilmember Bolkcom to waive the reading of the ordinance and approve the
ordinance on first reading. Seconded by Councilmember Varichak.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, MAYOR LUND DECLARED THE
MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY

12. Receive Bids and Award Contract to Provide a Comprehensive Water and Sewer
Rate Study for the City of Fridley.
Richard Pribyl, Finance Director, said staff developed a request for proposal that was sent to
three engineering firms that specialize in rate studies. Two firms replied. Staff reviewed each of
the two proposals and found them to be very similar including pricing. One of the firms seemed
to have more specialization with rate studies. Staff contacted the references and again found
them to be very complementary on both firms. The study will analyze both the water rates and
sewer rates and consumption histories will be developed by customer type. Three different water
rate structures will be developed for the water utility: a base line structure that associates cost of
water by customer class will be developed, an Increasing block structure with a fixed cost
component will also be analyzed and water conservation rates will be also be reviewed as a part
of this study.
Mr. Pribyl said the aging meter inventory will also be reviewed to determine whether a meter
change-out would provide additional revenues to possibly support an Automated Meter Reading
Program. The sewer rate structure will be reviewed to determine the best rate structure given the
current self-read metering program. After review of the two proposals and follow up reference
checks, staff recommends Council make a motion to approve Progressive Consulting Engineers,
Inc. as the City's consultant provide a"Comprehensive Water and Sewer Rate Study" at a cost
not to exceed $30,000.
MOTION by Councilmember Saefke to receive the bids and award the contract for a
Comprehensive Water and Sewer Rate Study for the City of Fridley to Progressive Consulting
Engineers, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $30,000. Seconded by Councilmember Barnette.
UPON VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, MAYOR LUND DECLARED THE MOTION

Presentation of Retirement Plaques to Robert Bennek and Clint Coppicus.
Mayor Lund presented retirement plaques to Robert Bennek (20 years) and Clint Coppicus (30

13. Informal Status Reports.
Councilmember Bolkcom said she had a chance to work at the recycling drop-off event and
was amazed with the number of electronics people had to drop off. It was a successful event.
She also mentioned that the `49er Days parade was great.
Councilmember Saefke said he thought the fireworks were spectacular. A lot of people came to
see them.
Councilmember Varichak congratulated Mayor Lund and his wife on their daughter's new title
of Miss Fridley 2008.

Second Reading of an Ordinance Proposing to Amend Fridley City Charter Chapters
2-6
Chapter 410.12, subd. 7, of the Minnesota Statutes allows an amendment by ordinance upon
recommendation of the Charter Commission. It requires publication of the proposed amendment
at least two weeks before the public hearing before the City Council, and the ordinance must be
adopted within one month of the public hearing requiring a unanimous vote of the City Council.
The legal notice was published in the May 22nd, 29th and June Sth editions of the Fridley Sun
Focus.
A public hearing was held on June 9, 2008, to review the proposed charter changes
recommended by the Fridley Charter Commission. These proposed changes to the City charter
were deemed necessary to maintain consistency with state statutes and to update terminology to
make it easier for our citizens to understand. The Charter Commission reviewed examples of
other city charters as well as pertinent state statute citations during their deliberations in making
these recommended changes. Councilmember Ann Bolkcom questioned whether the existing
language in Section 3.02. Secretary of the Council implied a secretary was required to be present
and take minutes at each Council conference meeting. After reviewing Councilmember
Bolkcom's question with the City Attorney, it was determined the existing language did not
imply or require the Secretary be present or take minutes at conference meetings. The first
reading of the ordinance was held on June 23, 2008.
Staff recommends holding the second reading of an Ordinance Proposing to Amend Fridley City
Charter Chapters 2-6.
The Charter Commission recommends the following changes:
Chapter 1— the Commission reviewed the chapter and found there was no need for any changes
at this time.
Chapter 2
Section 2.02.1 - added language for further clarification;
Section 202.6 — changed language to make it consistent with state language
Chapter 3 -
Section 3.01 — since most conference meetings are done at the same time as the city
council meetings, the Commission felt the language in the charter should be changed to reflect
that activity. It also does not limit the Council from adding additional conference meetings.
Section 3.02 — changed choose to approve as the secretary is usually recommended by the
City Manager.
Section 3.04 — changed noes to nays
Section 3.06 — changed noes to nays
Section 3.10 — due to the advanced technology and the city clerks role to maintain the
city code in electronic form, the Commission agreed to change codification from 5 to 10 years.
Chapter 4
Section 4.02 — language remains basically the same, with the exception of changing
regular to general, as to keep the terminology consistent with the state statute.
Section 4.08 — changed the language to reflect current state law or procedures pertaining
to primary and general elections.
Chapter 5
Section 5.02 — change the word pecuniary to monetary and changing the sentence
structure.
Section 5.07 — changing 49 days to 53 days to make it consistent with state law
Section 5.12.1 —new language to clarify referendum repealing charter amendment is set
forth in MN statutes
Section 5.12.2 — just renumbered and new title
Section 5.13.4 — slight language change without changing meaning
Section 5.14 - changing 49 days to 53 days to make it consistent with state law
Section 5.19 - changing 49 days to 53 days to make it consistent with state law
Section 5.21 — this section was changed by removing language at the bottom of the
paragraph and bringing it to the top of the paragraph. This will hopefully clarify what to do if an
officer resigns or what to do if an officer does not resign.
Chapter 6
Section 6.06 — inclusion of rental or lease language and change or restructuring of
language pertaining to emergency ordinance.

PUBLIC HEARING
Consideration of Special Use Permit SP #08-09, by Alisa Gutierrez, to allow a cat
and dog grooming business, legally described as Tract A Registered Land Survey
No. 27, subject to easement of record, generally located at 6501 Central Avenue NE.
MOTION by Commissioner Kondrick to open the public hearing. Seconded by Commissioner
Sielaff.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON SAVAGE DECLARED
THE MOTION CARRIED AND THE HEARING OPENED AT 7:04 P.M.
Stacy Stromberg, City Planner, stated the petitioner is requesting a special use permit to allow a
dog and cat grooming business within one of the tenant spaces of the stipmall located at 6501
Central Avenue.
Ms. Stromberg stated the subject property is located at the northeast corner of Central Avenue
and Mississippi Street. The property is zoned G2, General Business. According to building
permit records, a building existed on the site prior to 1949, however; that structure burned down.
The existing building and gasoline pumps were then constructed in 1969. Over the years the
attached strip mall has been leased to various small commercial businesses.
Ms. Stromberg stated the existing building is 4,640 square feet. The building is currently
occupied by a convenience/gas station, with a few separate tenant spaces that are leased to
individual businesses. The petitioner plans to lease an 18 ft. by 40 ft. (720 sq. ft.) space for her
business.
Ms. Stromberg stated the City Code allows animal clinics, veterinary clinics, animal hospitals,
public kennels, obedience schools and training services in the G2, General Business zoning
district, with a special use permit. City Code does not specifically list pet grooming as a
permitted special use; however, the above listed uses are similar enough to require the petitioner
to apply for a special use permit for the grooming use in this zoning district, to ensure
compatibility.
Ms. Stromberg stated based on the square footage the petitioner will be leasing for her business,
two parking stalls will be required. The property owner has dedicated two parking stalls in front
of the building to the petitioner's business and is also providing three additional stalls for her
business on the east side of the building. As a result, the proposed use will meet the parking code
requirements.
Ms. Stromberg stated with any type of animal facility there may be questions and concerns
related to odor and noise. The petitioner has articulated in her narrative to City staff that there
really should not be any issues related to odor because any waste on site will be double bagged
and properly disposed of in a dumpster. The animals will only be in her facility for a short period
of time and as a result, pet waste should be minimaL If a pet needed to relieve themselves while
in her care, the petitioner would bring the animal to the grassy area on the corner of the lot and
the pet waste would be picked-up from that location.
Ms. Stromberg stated the petitioner realizes that noise may be generated by barking dogs. She
has stated that she is very concerned about being a good neighbor and will defuse any noise as
quickly as she can. She also plans to insulate the space she is leasing to help relieve any potential
noise from the business.
Ms. Stromberg stated the City's Animal Control ordinance deems any animal that barks, howls,
cries, yelps, or makes any other noise habitually and/or repetitively that the person who owns,
keeps, or harbors the animal knows, or has reasonable grounds to know that it will, or tend to,
alarm, anger or disturb other persons residing in the vicinity thereof a nuisance. If noise were to
become a concern for a neighboring property owner, staff will monitor the property for violations
of the animal control ordinance and handle them accordingly.
Ms. Stromberg stated the petitioner has stated that it is difficult for her to answer how many
animals will be serviced at her business in a typical day. She has stated that personally she can
only groom four dogs or cats in one day. She plans to have an employee, who will groom up to
five dog or cats in one day. As a result, it appears that a maximum of nine pets will be groomed
in one day at this facility.
Ms. Stromberg stated City staff has not heard any comments from neighboring property owners.
Ms. Stromberg stated City Staff recommends approval of the special use permit request, subject
to stipulations as an animal grooming facility is a similar use as an animal clinic, veterinary
clinic, and animal hospital, which are a permitted special use in the G2 zoning district.
Ms. Stromberg stated staff recommends that if the special use permit is granted, the following
stipulations be attached:
1. The petitioner shall obtain a building permit prior to interior modifications if required by
the Minnesota State Building code.
2. The petitioner shall comply with Minnesota State Building code requirements.
3. The petitioner shall obtain a sign permit prior to installation of any new signage.
4. The ventilation system needs to be designed so that no odors or organisms will spread
between wards or to the outside air.
5. There shall be no outside pens or holding areas for the animals.
6. City staff to review special use permits within one year to ensure compatibility.
Commissioner Oquist asked if there was any issue such as public health since there is a
convenience store next door?
Ms. Stromberg replied, any public health concerns would be addressed through the building
permit and the Anoka County health department if a license is required.
Commissioner Velin asked regarding Stipulation No. 3, if the petitioner wants to put up a sign,
would she have to apply again to put up a sign?
Ms. Stromberg replied she would need to get a sign permit.
Commissioner Velin asked could they not approve the sign so the petitioner would not have to
come back again for a sign permit?
Ms. Stromberg replied a sign permit does not require Planning Commission approval but just an
approval from City staff.
Commission Dunham asked, does the business allow for dual occupancy?
Ms. Stromberg stated, yes.
Commissioner Sielaff stated he assumed there are no other grooming facilities in Fridley?
Ms. Stromberg replied, there are veterinary clinics in Fridley and some do offer grooming as a
part oftheir services.
Commissioner Saba stated he assumes they have not heard any problems with this?
Ms. Stromberg replied no they have not heard any complaints regarding this.
Chairperson Savage asked the petitioner if she had any problems with the stipulations?
Alisa Guiterrez, Petitioner, replied, no.
Commissioner Sielaff asked whether she was in this business now?
Ms. Guiterrez replied, she has been around animals all her life. She is also a vet tech. To be
honest she does not know any other kind of work. She has been grooming horses since she was
17. She has been looking since January for the perfect location and currently does not have a
business. She will put in a ventilation system to suck the moisture out.
Commissioner Dunham asked if she was planning on doing the insulation work?
Ms. Guiterrez replied, yes she is. Also she wants the walls to go to the ceiling to better control
odor and sound. The owner said that would probably be better. That is how a lot of clinics have
it, but she thinks she would want it sealed.
Commissioner Dunham stated, yes, he thinks that would need to be sealed.
MOTION by Commissioner Saba to close the public hearing. Seconded by Commissioner
Oquist.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON SAVAGE DECLARED
THE MOTION CARRIED AND THE HEARING CLOSED AT 7:13 P.M.
Commissioner Oquist asked Ms. Stromberg whether the owner of the property is going to
designate two stalls in front of the place and actually put signs up for her?
Ms. Stromberg replied, she could talk to the owner about that. The petitioner has spoken with
the property owner and he has stated to her that there would be two spots for her business.
Whether he is going to post it that way she is not sure.
Commissioner Oquist stated that the barbershop gets busy and he has seen the parking overlap.
Commissioner Dunham stated the only thing he would like to see, as far as the recommendation
since the petitioner is agreeable to insulating and sealing up to the ceiling, he wondered if that
should not be added as a stipulation stating it is going to be done. Because currently the tenants
spaces are sealed to the ceiling and he thinks that should be done.
MOTION by Commissioner Saba approving Special Use Permit SP #08-09, by Alisa Gutierrez,
to allow a cat and dog grooming business, legally described as Tract A Registered Land Survey
No. 27, subject to easement of record, generally located at 6501 Central Avenue NE with the
following stipulations:

by the Minnesota State Building code.
2. The petitioner shall comply with Minnesota State Building code requirements.
3. The petitioner shall obtain a sign permit prior to installation of any new signage.
4. The ventilation system needs to be designed so that no odors or organisms will
spread between wards or to the outside air.
5. There shall be no outside pens or holding areas for the animals.
6. City staff to review special use permits within one year to ensure compatibility.
7. The petitioner shall properly seal and insulate walls between her tenant space to the
ceiling.

Subject: Special Use Permit Request, SP #08-09, Alisa Gutierrez
M-08-16
INTRODUCTION
The petitioner is seeking a special use permit to allow a dog and cat grooming facility within the
stripmall, which is located at 6501 Central Avenue. The existing building is 4,640 square feet.
The building is currently occupied by a convenience/gas station, with a few separate tenant
spaces that are leased to individual businesses. The petitioner plans to lease an 18 ft. by 40 ft.
(720 sq. ft.) space for her business.
The City Code allows animal clinics, veterinary clinics, animal hospitals, public kennels,
obedience schools and training services in the C-2, General Business zoning district, with a
special use permit. City code doesn't specifically list pet grooming as a permitted special use
however, the above listed uses are similar enough to require the petitioner to apply for a special
use permit for the grooming use in this zoning district, to ensure compatibility.
PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
At the June 18, 2008, Planning Commission meeting, a public hearing was held for SP #08-09.
After a brief discussion, the Planning Commission recommended approval of special use permit,
SP #08-09, with the stipulations as presented by staff.
THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
PLANNING STAFF RECOMMENDATION
City Staff recommends concurrence with the Planning Commission.
STIPULATIONS
1. The petitioner shall obtain a building permit prior to interior modifications if required
by the Minnesota State Building code.
2. The petitioner shall comply with Minnesota State Building code requirements.
3. The petitioner shall obtain a sign permit prior to installation of any new signage.
4. The ventilation system needs to be designed so that no odors or organisms will
spread between wards or to the outside air.

REQUESTS
The petitioner, Alisa Gutierrez, is requesting a special use permit to allow a dog and cat
grooming business within one of the tenant spaces of the stipmall located at 6501 Central
Avenue.
HISTORY
The subject property is located at the northeast corner of
Central Avenue and Mississippi Street. The property is
zoned C-2, General Business. According to building
permit records, a building existed on the site prior to
1949, however; that structure burned down. In 1968, the
City Council reviewed plans for a convenience/grocery
store and they separately reviewed plans to allow for the
construction of gasoline pumps in conjunction with the
store. While modern code standards require a special
use permit to be obtained for motor vehicle fuel and oil
dispensing services, the 1963 zoning code allowed
gasoline service stations as a permitted use. The
existing building and gasoline pumps were then
constructed in 1969. Over the years the attached
stripmall has been leased to various small commercial
businesses.

ANALYSIS
The petitioner is seeking a special use permit to allow a dog and cat grooming facility within the
stripmall, which is located at 6501 Central Avenue. The existing building is 4,640 square feet.
The building is currently occupied by a convenience/ gas station, with a few separate tenant
spaces that are leased to individual businesses. The petitioner plans to lease an 18 ft. by 40 ft.
(720 sq. ft.) space for her business.
The City Code allows animal clinics, veterinary clinics, animal hospitals, public kennels,
obedience schools and training services in the C-2, General Business zoning district, with a
special use permit. City code doesn't specifically list pet grooming as a permitted special use
however, the above listed uses are similar enough to require the petitioner to apply for a special
use permit for the grooming use in this zoning district, to ensure compatibility.
Based on the square footage the petitioner will be leasing for her business, two parking stalls
will be required. The property owner has dedicated two parking stalls in front of the building to
the petitioner's business and is also providing three additional stalls for her business on the east
side of the building. As a result, the proposed use will meet the parking code requirements.
Wth any type of animal facility there may be questions and concerns related to odor and noise.
The petitioner has articulated in her narrative to City staff that there really shouldn't be any
issues related to odor because any waste on site will be double bagged and properly disposed
of in a dumpster. The animals will only be in her facility for a short period of time and as a
result, pet waste should be minimal. If a pet needed to relieve themselves while in her care, the
petitioner would bring the animal to the grassy
area on the corner of the lot and the pet waste
would be picked-up from that location.
The petitioner realizes that noise may be
generated by barking dogs. She has stated that
she is very concerned about being a good
neighbor and will defuse any noise as quickly as
she can. She also plans to insulate the space she
is leasing to help relieve any potential noise from
the business.
The City's Animal Control ordinance deems any
animal that barks, howls, cries, yelps, or makes
any other noise habitually and/or repetitively that
the person who owns, keeps, or harbors the
animal knows, or has reasonable grounds to know
that it will, or tend to, alarm, anger or disturb other
persons residing in the vicinity thereof a nuisance.
If noise were to become a concern for a
neighboring property owner, staff will monitor the property for violations of the animal control
ordinance and handle them accordingly.
The petitioner has stated that it is difficult for her to answer how many animals will be serviced
at her business in a typical day. She has stated that personally she can only groom four dogs
or cats in one day. She plans to have an employee, who will groom up to 5 dog or cats in one
day. As a result, it appears that a maximum of nine pets will be groomed in one day at this
faci I ity.
City staff hasn't heard any comments from neighboring property owners.
RECOMMENDATIONS
City Staff recommends approval of the special use permit request, subject to stipulations.
• An animal grooming facility is a similar use as an animal clinic, veterinary clinic, and
animal hospital, which are a permitted special use in the C-2 zoning district.
STIPULATIONS
Staff recommends that if the special use permit is granted, the following stipulations be
attached.
1. The petitioner shall obtain a building permit prior to interior modifications if required by
the Minnesota State Building code.
2. The petitioner shall comply with Minnesota State Building code requirements.
3. The petitioner shall obtain a sign permit prior to installation of any new signage.
4. The ventilation system needs to be designed so that no odors or organisms will spread
between wards or to the outside air.
5. There shall be no outside pens or holding areas for the animals.
6. City staff to review special use permit within one year to ensure compatibility.

SPECIAL INFORMATION
SU M MARY OF PROJECT
Jay Thorson of Dailey Companies, on behalf of
Miller Funeral Home is seeking two variances:
• Reduce the side yard setback on the
north side of the building from 15 feet to
3.7 feet to allow an expansion of the
existing garage;
• Reduce the side yard setback on the
south side of the building from 80 feet
on a corner lot to 30 feet to allow the
construction of an entry canopy.
SUMMARY OF HARDSHIP
"The existing north setback to the building is non-
compliant with the current code requiring a 15 ft.
setback. Because the existing north setback to the
building is non-compliant, we have a hardship to
meet the current setback requirements for the
proposed garage modi�cation and extension. We
feel this slight addition will enhance the building
appearance and will not be a significant further
encroachment to the north setback."
"The proposed canopy addition will be 30 ft. from the
right-of-way line. The canopy will provide safety
from the elements for our guests when this door is
used. We feel the canopy will enhance the
appearance of the building and will not cause a
hazardous situation with its minor encroachment into
the south setback area."
Russ Rosa, Architect for Miller Funeral Home
SU M MARY OF ANALYSIS
City Staff has no recommendation on the north side
yard setback variance request, as it is within
previously granted dimensions on this site.
VAR #93-33 by Miller Funeral Home
To reduce the side yard setback from 15 ft. to 3 ft.
VAR #01-10 by Miller Funeral Home
To reduce the side yard setback from 15 ft. to 3.7 ft.
City staff recommends approval of the variance to
increase the encroachment of a canopy in the side
yard, with stipulations.
• The addition of the canopy shouldn't impact
any neighboring properties or cause any line
of site issues.
• The addition of the canopy in this location is
unique to this property and shouldn't be
precedent setting.

Jay Thorson of Dailey Companies, on behalf of Miller Funeral Home is seeking two variances:

2. The second variance is to increase the encroachment of a canopy into the required

In addition to constructing the proposed addition on the north side of the building and the
canopy on the south side of the building, the property owner is also planning remove the
existing mansard roof and reface the entire building with a decorative stone veneer, to enhance
the buildings appearance.
It should also be noted that the petitioner states in his narrative that he is applying for two
additional variances. Variance #2 and #3 in his narrative are not required as the foundation of
the building will not change. The stone veneer added to the existing building will add 12 inches
to the outside of the building, however since the foundation of the building won't change a
variance is not required.
HARDSHIP STATEMENT
"The existing north setback to the building is non-compliant with the current code requiring a 15
ft. setback. Because the existing north setback to the building is non-compliant, we have a
hardship to meet the current setback requirements for the proposed garage modification and
extension. We feel this slight addition will enhance the building appearance and will not be a

SITE DESCRIPTION AND HISTORY
The property is located in the northwest
corner of the intersection of Highway 65
and West Moore Lake Drive. Located on
the property are a 6,348 square foot
mortuary and a 1,800 square foot garage.
The following activities have occurred on

and driveway location for a funeral home.
• 1967 — Issuance of a building permit for the funeral home.
• 1987 — A variance was granted to reduce the side yard setback on a corner lot to 35 feet
to allow construction of a building addition on the west end of the funeral home.
• 1993 — A variance was granted to reduce the side yard setback to 3 feet to allow a
hearse enclosure.
• 1994 — A variance was granted to increase the size of a freestanding sign and a 30 ft. by
60 ft. garage was built.
• 1996 — A variance to reduce the side yard setback was approved, a variance to reduce
the rear yard setback was denied; and additional side and rear yard setback variances
were denied.
• 1998 — A variance to reduce the south side yard setback to 37 feet was approved.
• 2001 — Variances were approved to reduce the front yard setback from 80 ft. to 58.25;
reduce the side yard setback on the north side from 15 ft. to 3.7 ft., and a variance to
reduce the side yard setback on the south corner lot from 80 ft. to 37.4 ft., to allow
construction of additions which total 3,489 sq. ft. — these additions were never
constructed.
ANALYSIS
Side Yard Setback Variance
City code requires a side yard setback of not less 15 ft. in our commercial zoning districts. The
petitioner is requesting to reduce the side yard setback on the north side of the building from 15
feet to 3.7 feet to allow for the construction of a 17.65 ft. by 60 ft. addition. This expansion will
be used for additional storage and garage space. A variance was granted in 2001 for this
property to the exact dimension that is being requested today.
View of Proposed North Side Yard Addition
If this variance request is granted, an 81 ft. 8 in. building wall will be 3.7 ft. from the property
line. As a result, just as City staff determined in 2001 and continues to feel today that an
addition of this size so close to the north property line would become more intrusive to the
adjacent property owner. The Skyline Veterinary Hospital building will be within 46 feet of the
proposed expansion. For that reason, staff has asked the petitioner to provide an architectural
treatment that is designed to add visual interest and break-up the aesthetics of an approximate
81 ft. featureless wall. The petitioner's plan shows how they are proposing to step the building
on the north side to break-up the wall and add visual interest. Staff has determined that this is
an adequate solution.
Side Yard Canopv Encroachment Variance
City code allows canopies and steps to building entrances to extend up to 10 ft. into the
required front and rear yard, but only 3 ft. in the required side yard. The subject parcel has
street frontage on two sides, however the frontage along the Hwy 65 Service Road is the
shorter street frontage, therefore declaring it the front yard. As a result, the south side of the
property is considered the side yard. The petitioner would like to construct a 7 ft. canopy over
the existing south side entrance to the building. Therefore, the petitioner is seeking a variance
to increase an encroachment of a canopy in the side yard from 3 ft. to 7 ft. The purpose of the
canopy is to provide safety from the elements for the guests using the south entry door.
View of the South Side Canopy Area
As stated above, a canopy is allowed to encroach into the front yard setback up to 10 feet.
Although the south side of the property is technically the side yard, it is seen from the public
right-of-way and could be viewed as the front door to the business. A 5 ft. encroachment into
the yard to provide an entry canopy will not have any negative impacts on this property or any
neighboring property.
The proposed addition will increase the size of the building by 1,059 square feet. The square
footage of the proposed, existing, and accessory building is 9,252 square feet and lot coverage
on this site is 11 %. The maximum allowed by a one story building and accessory building in the
C-3 Zoning District is 40%.
This site currently has 83 parking spaces. The existing building requires 42 parking spaces.
The 1,059 square foot addition will accommodate storage and garage space. Using the
storage/warehouse parking ratio of 1 stall for every 2,000 square feet of space, a%2 stall will be
required for the proposed addition. This site requires a minimum of 42.5 parking spaces and it
currently has 83 parking spaces, so it meets the City's requirements regarding parking spaces.
The Miller Funeral Home also has had a reciprocal parking agreement with St. Phillips Lutheran
Church to the south since 1967.
NEIGHBHORHOOD COMMENTS
City staff has heard from two neighboring properties owners. One was simply asking for
additional information and didn't speak for or against the project. The second comment came
through facsimile, stating that they were against the variance request and felt that if Miller
Funeral Home needed additional space they should purchase other vacant land within the City
of Fridley instead of crowing the property lines on the existing site.
RECOMMENDATIONS
City Staff has no recommendation on the north side yard setback variance request, as it is
within previously granted dimensions on this site.
VAR #93-33 by Miller Funeral Home
To reduce the side yard setback from 15 ft. to 3 ft.
VAR #01-10 by Miller Funeral Home
To reduce the side yard setback from 15 ft. to 3.7 ft.
City staff recommends approval of the variance to increase the encroachment of a canopy in the
side yard, with stipulations.
■ The addition of the canopy shouldn't impact any neighboring properties or cause
any line of site issues.
■ The addition of the canopy in this location is unique to this property and shouldn't
be precedent setting.
STIPULATIONS
If the Appeals Commission were to recommend that the Council grant these variances, staff
recommends that the following stipulations be attached.
1. Petitioner shall obtain any required permits prior to beginning construction.
2. The proposed north wall shall meet Minnesota State Building Code requirements for
distance to a property line.
3. Parking lot to be restored to Code requirements for paving, curbing, and painting
after the addition is completed.
4. Landscaping on the north side of building to be restored to Code requirements after
the addition is completed.

SUBJECT: Award of Elevated Water Tower No. 2 Rehabilitation Project No. 378
On Wednesday, July 2, 2008, 6 bids were opened for the Elevated Water Tower No. 2
Rehabilitation Project. Attached is a bid tabulation and recommendation letter from the City's
consultant, Bonestroo.
The low base bid was received from Classic Protective Coatings of Menomonie, WI, in the amount
of $880,900.00. The high base bid received was $1,787,770.00. The most recent cost estimate
performed by the Bonestroo was $1,000,000. The base bid requires completion by November 15,
2008.
We also gave the option for contractors to bid with an alternate completion date of June 15, 2009.
We had a low bid of $855,750.00 for this alternate from Champion Coatings of Savage, MN. The
high alternate bid received was also $1,787,770.00.
We recommend award of the base bid, for the following reasons:
1. A significant portion of the difference in cost between the bids will be consumed by
additional inspection, construction administration, and staff costs due to the longer alternate
bid timeframe.
2. There are additional risks involved in having the elevated tank out of service for an
additional time period that are not warranted by the remaining savings.
3. We would like to continue with our rehabilitation work as early as possible in the spring with
our other facilities, which may be precluded by the demands of this project.
The project is to be funded by a utility bond issue supported by water rates.
Recommend the City Council receive the bids and award the Elevated Water Tower No. 2
Rehabilitation Project (No. 378) to Classic Protective Coatings of Menomonie, WI in the amount of
$880, 900. 00.

The low Bidder for the Base Bid on the Project was Classic Protective Coatings, Inc. with a Total Base Bid
Amount of $880,900.00. This compares to the Engineer's Estimate of just over $1,000,000. These Bids
have been reviewed and found to be in order.
The qualifications for the low bidder for the base bid were reviewed and found to demonstrate the ability
to complete a project of this size and scope. Discussions with stafF indicated that the potential for
increased inspection costs associated with the alternate bid and increased risks to the City associated
with having the 1.5 MG elevated tank out of service for approximately 10 — 11 months were not worth
the relatively small savings of the Alternate No. 1 bid reduction.
If the City Council wishes to award the Project to the low Bidder for the Base Bid, then Classic
Protective Coatings, Inc. should be awarded the Project on the Total Base Bid Amount of
$880,900.00.
Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at 651-604-4872.

Public Hearing Continued from January 7, 2008 to Consider Revocation of Special
Use Permit #06-04 for BDA Development, generally located at 7600 Hwy 65 NE
M-08-17
ANALYSIS
On January 7, 2008, the City Council continued a public hearing to consider revocation of Special
Use Permit #06-04 until July 14, 2008. As you are aware, the special use permit was granted on
September 25, 2006, to Brent Anderson to allow limited outdoor storage at his property which is
located at 7600 Hwy 65 NE.
At the January 7, 2008, City Council meeting, the Council instructed Mr. Anderson to have all
outdoor storage issues, including equipment, materials, and vehicles to be stored under a roofed
structure or removed from the site by February 15, 2008 and to have the property brought into
compliance by this date. On February 15, 2008, Scott Hickok, Community Development Director
inspected the subject property and found that all outdoor storage beside and behind the property
had been removed. As Mr. Hickok had indicated in his memo dated, February 15, 2008, which is
attached, 97% of the outdoor storage on the site was gone and the remaining 3% was being
managed on the site as he toured it. Since that inspection that remaining 3% has been removed
and the site continues to remain free of any outdoor storage.
At the January 7, 2008 City Council meeting, the Council also directed Mr. Anderson to have the
lean-to structure for screening of the materials to be constructed by July 1, 2008. Since there is
currently nothing being stored on site, construction of the lean-to hasn't been completed nor is it
required at this point.
RECOMMENDATION
Since there is no outdoor storage on the site, staff would recommend that the City Council revoke
Special Use Permit, SP #06-04 by BDA Development, to allow limited outdoor storage in a M-1,
Light Industrial zoning district, generally located at 7600 Hwy 65 NE. If in the future the petitioner
would like to have outdoor storage on the site again, City staff and the Council can evaluate the
request at the time.
A resolution for revocation of SP #06-04 has been prepared and is attached for Council's
signature.

WHEREAS, the City Council continued the public hearing on January 7, 2008, and instructed
the petitioner to have all outdoor storage items on the property under a roofed structure or
removed from the site by February 15, 2008; and

storage in an M-1, Light Industrial zoning district at BDA Development, generally located at

Memorandum
DATE: February 15, 2008
TO: William W. Burns, City Manager
FROM: Scott J. Hickok, Community Development Director
SUBJECT: Brent Anderson Site Clean-up 7600 Hwy 65
Good News! The outdoor storage beside and behind 7600 Highway 65 has been removed! As
scheduled; I visited the site this morning at 10:00. I met with Brent Anderson and his assistant
"Tim". The two provided a tour of both the inside and the outside of the building. I was pleased
to see that 97% of the outdoor storage was gone and the remaining 3% was being managed as
we toured. He indicated that that 3% would be gone by the end of the day. I believe that will be
true after seeing the progress, a crew, and the equipment that was being used on the site. I will
alert you if the 3% does not disappear, since I will to a final inspection before the end of the
day.
On the south side of the property the snow piles were being removed to assure that there wasn't
any junk beneath the snow.
Mr. Anderson commented that it was a nerve-wracking week; since none of the heavy work was
started until 4 days ago. He let the tenants know that any materials left behind will be removed
by the City and he would "back-charge" the tenants for any expense. Crews began working
early in the week and today had the final two dumpsters full and ready to be dumped, and all of
the bulk storage removed has been removed as well.
Mr. Anderson's company moved all of his roofing products below the roofed canopies (behind
the building), where they are permitted to go.
The inside of the building is boxed and ready to be moved out as well. There are 2 tenants plus
Anderson's company that will remain after Adaddula has finished moving out. Anderson
indicated that he has a new tenant that will occupy about 50% of the space inside the building
and that that tenant will have all of its materials stored inside. I reminded him not to proceed
with removing or adding walls and fixtures without obtaining a permit first.
All-in-all a very good inspection and a very big victory! Congratulations staff and Council!

Memorandum
DATE: February 15, 2008
TO: William W. Burns, City Manager
FROM: Scott J. Hickok, Community Development Director
SUBJECT: Brent Anderson Site Clean-up 7600 Hwy 65
Good News! The outdoor storage beside and behind 7600 Highway 65 has been removed! As
scheduled; I visited the site this morning at 10:00. I met with Brent Anderson and his assistant
"Tim". The two provided a tour of both the inside and the outside of the building. I was pleased
to see that 97% of the outdoor storage was gone and the remaining 3% was being managed as
we toured. He indicated that that 3% would be gone by the end of the day. I believe that will be
true after seeing the progress, a crew, and the equipment that was being used on the site. I will
alert you if the 3% does not disappear, since I will to a final inspection before the end of the
day.
On the south side of the property the snow piles were being removed to assure that there wasn't
any junk beneath the snow.
Mr. Anderson commented that it was a nerve-wracking week; since none of the heavy work was
started until 4 days ago. He let the tenants know that any materials left behind will be removed
by the City and he would "back-charge" the tenants for any expense. Crews began working
early in the week and today had the final two dumpsters full and ready to be dumped, and all of
the bulk storage removed has been removed as well.
Mr. Anderson's company moved all of his roofing products below the roofed canopies (behind
the building), where they are permitted to go.
The inside of the building is boxed and ready to be moved out as well. There are 2 tenants plus
Anderson's company that will remain after Adaddula has finished moving out. Anderson
indicated that he has a new tenant that will occupy about 50% of the space inside the building
and that that tenant will have all of its materials stored inside. I reminded him not to proceed
with removing or adding walls and fixtures without obtaining a permit first.
All-in-all a very good inspection and a very big victory! Congratulations staff and Council!

First Reading of Ordinance Declaring Property Excess and Authorizing Sale
Background
On June 23, 2008, the City Council closed a public hearing regarding the disposition of land owned by the
City along Springbrook Creek in the Riverview Heights area. The land is comprised of five 25' x 110' lots
and is legally described as Lots 4 through 8, inclusive, of Block M, Riverview Heights. Two adjoining
property owners voiced interest at the hearing regarding purchasing the land from the City to combine with
their existing property. Staff was directed to meet with these interested property owners after the meeting,
negotiate terms, and proceed with the steps necessary to sell the land.
Staff has since held a meeting with both parties. Conditions of the land sale were discussed and tentatively
agreed upon. A survey of the properiy is in process at this time. Staff plans to wait with the drafting of
drainage easement documents and purchase agreements until the City Council has approved the sale of the
land by ordinance.
