THE MINUTES OF THE BOARD OF APPEALS MEETING OF OCTOBER 23, 1973
The meeting was called to order by Chairman Drigans at 7:38 P.M.
MEMBERS PRESENT: Drigans, Gabel, Plemel
MEMBERS ABSENT:. Crowder, Wahlberg
OTHERS PRESENT: Howard Mattson, Engineering Aide
MOTION by Plemel, seconded by Gabel, to approve the minutes of the
October 9, 1973 meeting as written. Upon a voice vote, there being no
nays, the motion carried..
1. A REQUEST FOR A VARIANCE OF SECTION 45.053, 4, B4, FRIDLEY CITY CODE TO
REDUCE THE SIDE YARD REQUIREMENT FOR AN ATTACHED GARAGE FROM 5 FEET TO
2 FEET TO ALLOW THE CONSTRUCTION OF A 6 FOOT ADDITION ONTO AN EXISTING
STRUCTURE, LOCATED ON LOT 8, BLOCK 4, BROOKVIEW TERRACE 3rd, THE SAME
BEING 810 RICE CREEK TERRACE N.E., FRIDLEY, MINNESOTA. (REQUEST BY
CAROL ANN GUZY, 810 RICE CREEK TERRACE N.E., FRIDLEY MINNESOTA.)
MOTION by Plemel, seconded by Gabel, to waive reading the public hearing
notice. Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, the motion carried.
Mrs. Guzy was present to present her request. She explained that she had
bought her house about two years ago. She said she was a widow and didn't
need a two car garage at the time, but that now she is getting married
again and it will be a two car family. Mrs. Guzy also said that from the
appearance of the side yard she maintained, plus an existing fence, it
looked as if they had about 11 feet to the lot line. Upon having a
survey done it was found that the existing wall line was only 8 feet
from the lot line leaving only 2 feet of setback with a 6 foot addition.
Mrs. Guzy said that her neighbor had no objection as long as the garage
overhang was shortened and the rain spouts were redirected to the front
and back.
Chairman Drigans asked what the distance was between the two houses and
Mrs. Guzy answered that it was about 20 or 21 feet.
Mr. Plemel asked if the near end of the neighbors.house was garage area
or living quarters and Mrs. Guzy answered that it was the neighbors bedroom.
Chairman Drigans asked what size the addition would be and Mrs. Guzy
answered it would be 6 feet wide by the depth of the garage.
Mr. Plemel asked what the estimated cost of the addition.was going to be
and Mrs. Guzy answered about $1,800.00.
Mr. Plemel asked whether it would be worth the expense since they would
probably not get the money back out of the property.
Mrs. Guzy said that with so many people having 2 and 3 cars, she had been
told that her house would be much more valuable.
The Minutes of the Board of Appeals Meetins of October 23, 1973 Page 2
The question was asked if there would be any fill used and Mrs. Guzy said that
very little if any fill would be needed since they weren't going that far.
The subject of the outside wall of the addition being a firewall was explained
to Mrs. Guzy. She replied that she was sure the contractor would know what to
do about that.
MOTION by Gabel, seconded by Plemel, to close the public hearing. Upon a voice
vote, there being no nays, the motion carried.
MOTION by Gabel to recommend approval of the variance to Council with the
following stipulations; That the outside wall of the addition be a firewall;
That.the roof overhang be cut back so that it did not jut out past the lot
line; and, That the drainage flow be redirected to the front and back rather
than to the side.
Seconded by Plemel. Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, the motion carried
unanimously.
ADJOURNMENT:
Chairman Drigans adjourned the meeting at 8;00 P.M.

.The City Engineer said this was a request for a new structure on Main Street,
and the Board had recommended approval of the request with stipulations.
The City Engineer said.he would recommend an additional stipulation of the
developer being -required to pave the alley or require the developer to
petition the -City to do the paving of the alley. The City Engineer pointed
out on a plan the access to building and said this would be the main access
and it should be paved.
Councilman Breider asked about the block to be used on the construction. The
City Engineer advised the Council that basically, the same block -would be
used as is used on the other structure.
Councilman Breider asked if the plans would.call for a front loading area and
the City Engineer said yes. He indicated this would be the only way the
area could be developed. He said there is some screening, but all the
buildings in the area did load from the front.
MOTION by Councilman Breider to concur with the recommendation of the Building
Standards Design Control Subcommittee and approve the request for the construction
of a structure at 7860 Main St. N. E., with the stipulations as recommended,

REGULULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF OCTOBER 29, 1973

Mayor Liebl asked Mr. Kremer if he had showed the pictures of the proposed
and alternative antenna to the Board of Appeals. Mr. Kremer said he did not.
Mayor Leibl said the members of the Board had told him that Mr. Kremer planned
on putting up a monstrosity of an antenna. He indicated the antenna would not
cause any interference to the area property owners, in the technical standpoint.
Councilman Breider voiced concern at the antenna being similar to the ladder
which would be easily accessable to small children for climbing.
Mr. Kremer said there would be mesh installed over the steel and this
would be to the height of the eaves of his home and the antenna would be 22
inches and difficult for small children to shimmy. He said if any child could
climb up the antenna, it would have to be a larger child and he would be able
to jump down or call for help. Mr. Kremer indicated the protective measures
would protect the small children. He said he is very aware of the small
children in the area and he dial not think there was one tree they had not
climbed.
Councilman Breider said he would also like some determination on the safety
of the antenna with respect to wind velocity and what was indicated in the
applicants insurance for coverage of the area property.
Mr. Kemer said the antenna had been tested to withstand wind up to 80 miles
per hour and it would probably stand a greater force. He said this is the
speed at which the tests are stopped. He said with the use of guide wires to the
house, the antenna would be even more stable.
Councilman Breider questioned Mr. Kremer if it would be possible for him to
furnish the City proof that the structure would be insured against liability.
Mr. Kremer asked if a letter from his insurance agent would satisfy this
request. Councilman Breider indicated this would be appropriate. Councilman
Breider said he would also like som assurance that the area children would
not climb the antenna.
MOTION by Councilman'Breider that the antenna be covered with mesh to make
it impossible for -small children of the area to climb the antenna, and that
Mr. Kremer furnish the City with a letter from his insurance agent as proof
on insurance for liability and that the variance be granted to Mr. Kremer
for the installation of the radio and television antenna. Seconded by
Councilman Nee. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Liebl declared the
motion carried unanimously.
