THE MINUTES OF THE BOARD OF APPEALS SUBCOMMITTEE MEETING OF NOVEMBER 12, 1974
The meeting was called to order by Chairman Drigans at 7:38 P.M.
MEMBERS PRESENT: Drigans, Gabel, Plemel, Wahlberg
MEMBERS ABSENT: Crowder
OTHERS PRESENT: Howard Mattson, Engineering Aide
Two items tabled at the last meeting - 600 Cheryl Street and 7998 East River Road,
600 Cheryl Street was withdrawn.
MOTION by Plemel, seconded by Gabel, to approve the minutes of the October 15, 1974
meeting as written. Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, the motion carried.
1. A REQUEST FOR A VARIANCE OF SECTION 205.055, 2A, FRIDLEY CITY CODE
REQUIREMENT FOR A SINGLE STALL GARAGE ON A LOT HAVING A MINIMUM OF
FEET. TO ALLOW THE CONVERSION OF AN EXISTING ATTACHED GARAGE INTO
OF

AUDITOR'S SUBDIVISION #10, ANOKA COUNTY, MINNESOTA, EXCEPTING THE SOUTH 33.0 FEET
THERE OF AND ALSO THE EAST 83.0 FEET OF THE WEST 251.5 FEET OF OUTLOT A, DENNIS
ADDITION_ THE SAME BEING 1316 - 66th AVENUE NORTHEAST, FRIDLEY, MINNESOTA. (REQUI
BY MR. ROBERT M. BURDICK, 13
- 66th AVENUE N.E., FRIDLEY, MINNESOTA 55432.;
MOTION, by Wahlberg, seconded by Plemel, to waive reading the public hearing notice.
Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, the motion carried.
Mr. Burdick was present with his wife to present their request.
Mr. Burdick came forward with his wife to present their request to turn their
garage into additional living quarters.
Chairman Drigans stated that the lot was 83 feet wide and then asked Mr. Burdick
how long his house was. Mr. Burdick said it was 54 feet long, the house portion
being 24 X 40 feet.
Mr. Burdick showed the board plans of the house and his proposals.
Chairman Drigans asked what was indicated on the plan next to the garage. Mra.Burdick
said that was concrete as part of his proposal for parking after his garage is con-
verted. He said that there was enough room for a drive-by next to the house for
access to a garage in the rear, but that putting a garage in the rear would destroy
much of the recreational use and beauty of the yard since many trees would have to be
cut down.
Mr. Burdick, also, said that Bacon Electric owned the property to the rear and that if
they were to develop this land a street would have to be put in for access. Mr. Burdick
added that if Bacon Electric were planning to develop their property immediately and
the road were built, he would put in a double car garage facing the new street.
Mr. Burdick added that the existing house on Bacon's property is served by a private
gravel road, but that 33 feet of street easement had been acquired from the south end
properties facing 66th Avenue. Another 33 feet could be acquired from Bacon Electric
to put in a public street.
There followed some discussion of other houses near Mr. Burdicks property.

-'*THE MINUTES OF THE BOARD OF APPEALS SUBCOMMITTEE MEETING OF NOVEMBER 12, 1974
Chairman Drigans asked Mr. Burdick if he had talked to the neighbors. Mr. Burdick
said, "yes" and that he had found no opposition.
Mr. Burdick then explained that one of the things that prompted the decision to
remodel was that they,(the Burdick family), were a one vehicle family and that
their recreational van, (as the one vehicle), wouldn't fit in the existing garage
anyway. They have a temporary storage building in the back which would be removed
when the garage was built.
Mr. Plemel asked Mr. Burdick, if he had thought of putting an extension on the
house. Mr. Burdick said that the cost and the financing were prohibitive.
Chairman Drigans stated that -this situation was unique and that it might be setting
a precedant if the request were approved.
Mr. Burdick repeated that there was room to drive past the house to get to a
garage in the rear so that if another owner wished to build one he could.
Mr. Burdick showed the board an interior plan of the remodeling. He stated that
with a family of six and 960 square feet to his home they could really use more
family space.
MOTION by Wahlberg, seconded by Gabel, to close the public hearing. Upon a voice
vote, there being no nays, the motion carried.
The Board discussed the request and concluded that they had no major reservations.
MOTION by Wahlberg, seconded by Gabel, to recommend to the City Council, approval
of the variance; there were no stipulations and it was noted that no neighborhood
objections were raised. Upon a voice vote, there being no nays the motion carried.
2. A REQUEST FOR VARIANCES OF: SECTION 205.134, 4, B2, FRIDLEY CITY CODE, TO REDUCE
THE SIDE YARD SETBACK ABUTTING A SIDE STREET, FROM THE REQUIRED 35 FEET TO 33 FEET,
AND, SECTION 205.134, 4B, TO REDUCE THE SIDE YARD SETBACK FROM THE REQUIRED 20 FEET
TO ZERO FEET, TO ALLOW THE CONSTRUCTION OF AN INDUSTRIAL BUILDING TO BE LOCATED ON
LOTS 16 AND 17, BLOCK 8, ONAWAY ADDITION, THE SAME BEING 7791 ELM STREET N.E.,
FRIDLEY MINNESOTA. (REQUEST BY PACO, INCORPORATED, 5920 KIRKWOOD LANE, MINNEAPOLIS
A 55442.
MOTION by Wahlberg, seconded by Plemel, to waive reading the public hearing notice.
Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, the motion carried.
Mr. Jerry Paschke and Mr. Richard Harris were present for the request.
Mr. Paschke came forward, then Mr. Harris. Mr. Paschke showed the Board a sketch
type drawing and plan of his proposed building at Elm and 78th Street N.E.
Chairman Drigans asked to see the layout maps of the Onaway area.
Mr. Paschke pointed out the location of the proposed building and stated that it
was essentially the same as one built across the street except for being reversed.
He pointed out the other buildings that were built in the block just north of the
property in question.

thepeople of the City of Fridley. He emphasized that it was their intention to not
create a tax burden for the people. Dr. Trezona said it was their hope to begin the
planning and drawing of plans, etc. He said with the cooperation of the City Council,
they would find the funding to handle the development.
Councilman Nee submitted a resolution to the members of the Council he had drafted.
Mayor Liebl said he agreed with many things in the proposed resolution, but he felt it
would be improper for the present Council to make a decision on the matter. He said
the newly elected members of the Council had campaigned stating they would support
the nature center, he believed this Council should make the decision.
Councilman Breider referred to the resolution presented by Councilman Nee and asked
if this would be read to the Council and audience. Councilman Nee read the proposed
resolution.
Councilman Nee addressed Mayor Liebl and said he had requested that this not be taken
care of until the next year. He said he had originally thought that this would be
reasonable, but it had been brought to his attention that there was an outstanding
order by the Minnesota Environmental Quality Council: He interpreted that the City.
would be obligated to make an Impact Statement if this action was not taken at the
present time. He said the City would have to respond with the statement or inform the
Council that the City no longer intends to develop the golf course.
Councilman Nee pointed out a third reason for this action at the current time, to
be that the Metropolitan Council was to hold a hearing on a proposed grant the following
week and the staff had expressed interest in the nature center and may consider the
nature center in the grant. He said it would be prudent to take this action at the
proper time to have this on record at the hearing.
Councilman Nee went on to state that they would have to begin somewhere and he
believed discussion of the structure starting with negotiations would.lead to a
proposal. He said he would also like to give notice to people who have some interest
in the statement to receive some grants. He listed those who have previously expressed
interest such as the County and various school districts. He said he would like some
negotiations to begin with the administration.
Councilman Breider said he would like to speak to the resolution. He said he could
concur with the resolution with a few changes in the wording. He referred to the section
number three and said he would like to insert the word "preliminary" before the
word "development". He suggested alteration of the fourth statement by changing the
word "negotiations" to "discussions", and also deleting "Springbrook Nature Center
Foundation" and add, "interested groups and individuals. Also in this fourth statement,
he suggested concluding the statement with, "and report back at the City Council
Public Hearing, February 10, 1975". Councilman Breider said he would like to also
add "local organizations" after "governmental units", in section number five.
Councilman Breider said he felt the City of Fridley should have a say in the planning
of the nature center, and this should be done in a timely fashion.
Councilman Breider mentioned voting on the proposed resolution and questioned how many
votes this would take to pass at the present time. The City Attorney indicated
this would take three votes, a simple majority. Councilman Breider said if the two
members abstain, and the three remaining vote in favor, this would carry the resolution
and it could be forwarded.
Councilman Nee said he would have no objections to the amendments suggested by Councilman
Breider.
MOTION by Councilman Breider to adopt Resolution No. 126-1974 a resolution concerning
the development of North Park, and instructing the administration to have the resolution
j published in the legal newspaper. Seconded by Councilman Nee. Upon a roll call"vote,
j Mayor Liebl abstaining, Councilman Utter'abstaining, Councilman Nee voting aye,
Councilman Breider voting aye, and Councilman Starwalt voting aye, Mayor Liebl declared
the motion carried, three ayes and two abstentions.
The City Manager said Dr. Huff would work with any interested groups to formulate the
plans for the nature center. He questioned if the Council would want to take some
action on allowing tours of North Park. He further pointed out that ;his had been
