Mr. Wittman was present and explained that he owned 150 feet along
Arthur Street and wanted it split into two 75 foot building sites. He has
owned the lot since 1955, and in 1965 sent a letter to the City of Fridley
asking for a lot split and received a letter stating this was already done.
The City must have referred to the original split when Mr. Wittm�n purchased
the property.
, It c�ras explained to Mr. Wittman that an tiverall street plan for the
area called for an East/West street midway between 64th Avenue and Mississippi
Stxeet to serve the internal lots in the block when split. The lots in the
area ��ich have been split have dedicated twenty-five feet for the street.
This is a fairly well established precedent.
Mr. Wittman was inforsned that it would be to his advantage if he would
consider purchasing twenty-five feet fram Mr. Larson, awner of the North
Half �f Lot 1, in oxder to have two buildable lots. Mr. Wittman asked if
the Subcomnittee was sure the rest of the property owners would wan� that
road. Chairman Jensen answered that he did not know the answer, but
experience has been in lot splits similar to this, that the people in the
older plats with one or two acre lots, decide that they are tired of big
lo�s and paying taxes on them. The Planning Comnission has developed a
street plan, after a series of hearings, explaining that they are not
talking about building roads now, but want to adopt a plan so that if any-
one wants to divide the property, it could be done with this road plan.
It may take ten to fifteen years before the last lots are split, but this
pl�n is woxking. As the lot splits come iny the road plan is follawed.
Mr. Wittman was told a 75 foot comer lot is narrow and he would have
trouble building on 75 feet because of setbacks. It would al�ost force
building a 1'� story house.
I�DTION by Crowder, seconded by Myhra, that the Plats � Subdivisions-
Streets & Utilities Subcouanittee reco�nend the lot split, L.S. ��69-21,
Walter E. Wittman, of the South Half of Lot 1, Block 1, Spring Valley
Addition that this Body expressed disapproval to the Planning Commis�ion
of this split. The reasons behin� the disappraval imiolve a 25 foot road
easement which this Body deems necessary, thereby yielding a lot which is
not suitable to give two buildable lote, thus there is na logic behind
approving the lot split request. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, the
motion carried unanimously.
3. LOT SPLIT REQUEST• L S ��69-20, FRANK DIRCZ: Combine 10 feet of Lot 29
with Lot 30, Block 1, Plymouth Addition.
The petitioner was not present.
The Engineering Assistant explained that Mr. Dircz was told that there
were several variances that would have to be granted before he could build.
He went before the Board of Appeals for a series of variasces to build on
a 45 foot corner lot. This lot was tax forfeit and was purchased in 1963.
Because 49th Avenue is a � �e Aid road and heavy traffic carrier, the Sub-
cam�nittee felt an 11 foot s�tback is inadequate inas�ch as the street is
using almost all of the right of way leaving little boulevard. There are
too many variances needed to build on the lot, and it was not the intent
Plannin�r �.ox�anissior "•T����:ing - Au�ust 6, 1969 Pa�e 4
�i-�2 to R-3, i,n view of the fact that we recognize that there is a vary active
proposal for this area of open space the Planning Comtnissionccould not in good
judgment change the zoning at this time. The petitioner has related some intor-
mation to us that presumably could affect the decision on the part of the Council
but did not think that the Plannzng Commission could use it as part of their
judgment. Upon a voice vote, a�ll voting aye, the motion carried unanimously.
( 5. LOT SPLIT RE(�UEST: L.S. ��69-21, WALTER E. WITTMAN: South Half of Lot 1, Block 1,
---- _ .___ ___-
—
Spring Valley Addition. —
Mr. Walter Wittman was present.
The Subcouunittee at their meeting of July 30, 1969 recoumended denial of the
lot split request, the prime factor being rhe fa�� �ha�t the half road was needed
on the South and would not leave enough land to split.
Mr. Wittma.n said he still would like to get two buildable lots. Referring
to the easement for road, he said there were only two Iots in the area that
dedicated the easement. He wondered if he could build on a smaller lot next to
Larsen and have a bigger lot on the South end so that if the easement did go
through, he would still have a good sized lot. He had not talked to Mr. Larsen
about either buying some of his property or selling part of his lot. He checked
the area and found there were homes build on 60 foot lots. If the easement is a
must, he continued, he would give enough land for easement, but he still wants
two buildable lots.
Mr. Myhra said that those houses built on 60 foot lots were either built
earlier or else built under variances. They could have been built on lots platted
prior to the present ordinance. Mr. Jensen said it is obvious that people in
this area with very large lots will someday think in terms of getting rid of
some of their property. If we were to start on the end where Mr. Wittman's parcel
is without a street, and then find, in the future, the rest of the people want
to split the back off their lots and dispose of some of their property, we would
� not have a road to get to the internar 1ots.
I,� Mr. Wittman was informed that if the City decided a street should go through,
then they could condemn. If a 25 foot easement were given, Mr. Wittman would have
a 125'x125' lot. Mr. Wittman did not feel that he could build a house on the
, land,without the lot split�which would sell because the neighborhood has stnaller
homes. He felt the kind of house that should be built to conform with the neighbor-
hood, could be put on two lots. He said he could not have a 75 foot corner lot
if he gave 25 feet. He has owned the property for twelve years.
MOTION by Jensen, seconded by Myhra, that the Planning Commission concur with
i the recommendations by the Subcommittee to deny the Lot Split, L.S. #69-21,
I Walter E. Wittman, of the Sout� Half of Lat 1, Block 1, Spring Valley Addition;
the reasons behind the disapproval involve a 25 foot road easement which is deemed
� necessary, thereby yielding a lot which is not suitable to give two buildable
lots, thus there is no logic behind appxoving the lot split. Upon a voice vote,
�`�__all voting aye, the motion carried unanimously.
6. VACATION REQUEST: SAV ��69-06, LEO 0. LEMi�: Vacate 47th Avenue between 3rd Street
and University Avenue (Lot 30, Block 9, Plymouth Addition).

REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF AUGUST 18, 1969 PAGE 4
3. REZONING REQUEST: ZOA #69-08, R.W. WORMSBECKER: Northwest quarter of
northwest quarter, except north 16.6 acres and southwest quarter of
northwest quarter of Section 2; also the north 34.68 acres of northeast
quarter of northeast quarter of Section 3, to rezone from M-2 to R-3.
The City Engineer said that the Planning Commission had recommended denial of
this request at this time because of the proposed open space program for the
area, because the study on multiple dwellings was not complet.e, and because the
petitioner was requesting a definite decision one way or another.
Mr. Ralph Wormsbecker said he would like to hear the Council's opinions on
this proposal. He said they had done a lot of wark on this property to see
what would be the best use. He said they have found the industrial develop-
ment going slowly, and felt some parts should be commercial, but first they
would have to get people into the neighborhood to enhance the value of the
other property. He said that the owner of the property to the south of his
also wants to zone for multiples, and this wil.l not hurt the open space area.
He said he would put in the sewer and water under the City's supervision so
there would not have to be a bond outlay. He would like to get all the pro-
perty zoned, but if the City wants some open laizd, they were not opposed to
doing just the one area at this time. He pointed the parcel out on the
map for the Council.
Councilman Liebl said that he recommended that this be tabled to the next
Council Meeting so that the full Council is aware of the proposal.
MOTION by Councilman Liebl to table this rezoning request to the nExt regular
Council Meeting of September 2, 1969. He said that by that time the Council
should have the apartment study back from the Planning Commission and will
have some answers for a solid and sound decision. Seconded by Councilman
Samuelson. Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, Mayor Kirkham declared the
motion carried.
Mayor Kirkham asked Mr. Wormsbecker what the acreage of the proposal was. Mr.
Wormsbecker said that it was 114 acres all told, but they were immediately
concerned with 40 acres. Mr. Wormsbecker said he would contact the owner of
the property to the south and ask him to attend the next Council Meeting also.
4. LOT SPLIT REQUEST: L.S. #69-12, WALTER E. WITTMAN: South half of Lot 1,
Block 1, Spring Valley Addition.
The City Engineer said that the Planning Commission had recommended denial
of this Lot Split request because of a necessary 25 foot road easement which
would make a lot which is not suitable for two buildable lots.
Mr. Wittman said that his neighbor owns the north half of Lot 1 and has in-
� dicated that he would buy 50 feet from him which would leave Mr. Wittman with
75 feet. He asked if he would be able to get a building permit for a house.
'` He said the Planning Com¢nission had turned down two 75' lots because of a
possible easement. Councilman Liebl asked if his neighbor will be able to
utilize the 50' if it is sold to him. Mr. Wittman said that he already has
been using it for a garden and parking. Mr. Wittman asked if he would be able
to build as there is no City sewer. The City Engineer said that the area will
be developing and he felt it would be bad planning to let Mr. Wittman put in

Ia cesspool. The City Engineer pointed out the proposed plans for road
i dedication and back lot utility easements. Mr. Wittman said he feels he
� owns 150 feet, as this easement does not exist. Councilman Samuelson said
' that maybe there will be a street going east and west someday (approximately
64� Avenue) and right of way will have to be given for that street. Mr.
' Wittman said that if he sold to his neighbor, he will still have 75 feet and
� wanted to know if he could get a building permit to build. Councilman Samuel-
� son said that this was a corner lot so he would have to retain 80' . He
', said there would be a utility easement on the north line because they may
� need storm sewer and NSP poles would have to be put in. The City Engineer said
� that this easement on the north line would have to be given while he still
; owned the property. Mr. Wittman asked if he gave an easenent for 64� Avenue if
he would still be responsible for the taxes. The City Engineer said that if he
! deeds 25' for the street to the City of Fridley, he would not pay the taxes on
it.
The City Engineer said that there is no sewer line on A.rthur Street now but
there is one on 64th and Mississippi. Fie questioned whether the Council
would allow a cesspool or require a hookup to sewer services. He said if he
connected, he would have to follow Arthur Street and this would benefit the
; property on the east and they do not know how this w.ill develop. Councilman
Samuelson said his suggestion would be that he could put in a cesspool, but
! would have to sign an agreement to hook up the sanitary sewer as soon as it
� was available. Mayor Kirkham said he did not like the idea of a cesspool
I because of the high water table.
I MOTION by Councilman Samuelson to grant the lot split upon the granting of a
5 foot utility easement and the dedication of 25 feet along the south portion
of the lot to the City of Fridley for street purposes retaining 80 feet
north/south frontage on Arthur Street. The building permit to be predicated
upon an agreement that as soon as sanitary sewer is available the owner will
hook up to the City system and that all easements are on record with the
City of Fridley. Seconded by Councilman Liebl. Upon a voice vote, all voting
; aye, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried.
5. VACATION REQUEST: SAV #69-06, LEO O. LEMKE: Vacate 47th Avenue between
3rd Street and University Avenue (Lot 30, Block 9, Plymouth Addition)
MOTION by Councilman Samuelson to set the date of September 8, 1969 for the
Public Hearing on Vacation Request SAV #69-06. Seconded by Councilman Liebl.
Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion
carried.
6. LOT SPLIT REQUEST: L.S. #69-20, FRANK DIRCZ: Combine 10 feet of Lot 29
with Lot 30, Block 1, Plymouth Addition.
The City Engineer pointed out that the Planning Commission had recommended
denial of this lot split. Councilman Liebl said that the petitioner had
gone to the Board of Appeals first because of variances that were needed, the
Board of Appeals had granted the variances and the Council had accepted their
Minutes. He asked Mr. Dircz what his plans were for the lot split. Mr.
Dircz presented pictures to the Council of other 40' lots in the area and
also his tax statement for the property. Councilman Samuelson pointed out
that the mini.mum corner lot size is 80 foot frontage. Mr. Dircz stated that
the lot was useless to him now with the high taxes. He said that he has not
paid the $400 assessments, and if he cannot do something with the lot he
would have to let it go. Mayor Kirkham asked h.im i,� �� �h� t]rm� j�e bought the
f

property, he had thought he eventually would be able to build on it. Mr.
Dircz said that Columbia Heiqhts had lots of that size in the area, and he
thought land would get scarcer and he would be able to build. Councilman
Liebl asked if anyone had objected to this plan. n�r. Dircz replied that the
neighbors did not object and presented the Council with the petition the
Planning Commission had received.
PETITION #37-1969 IN FAVOR OF L.S. #69-20, FRANK DIRCZ
MOTION by Councilman Liebl to receive Petition #37-1969 of adjoining property
owners granting approval to build a suitable home. Seconded by Councilman
Samuelson. Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, Mayor Kirkham declared the
motion carried.
Councilman Liebl asked Mr. Dircz what size home he would build. Mr. Dircz
replied, giving the approximate measurements of the house he had in mind.
Mayor Kirkham said that to be fair to Mr. Dircz he thought this should be
brought back at the next reqular Council Meeting with a full Council as he
did not feel he could vote for it and it would fail. He said the City has
minimum requirements set up and a lot of only 45 feet would be a rarity in
the middle of the block, let alone a corner lot. Mr. Dircz asked how the City
would maintain the lot if he was forced to let it go. Mayor Kirkham said that
was another problem, and did not bear on the lot split.
MOTION by Councilman Samuelson to table the consideration of the Lot Split
Request L.S. #69-20 to the Regular Council Meeting of September 2, 1969.
Seconded by Councilman Liebl. Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, Mayor
Kirkham declared the motion carried.
7. LOT SPLIT REQUEST: L.S. #69-10, NORTH AIR HOME ASSOCIATION, J.R. PLEMEL:
South 150 feet of Lot 18, Brookview Addition subject to road easement
over south 50 feet.
The City Engineer said that the Planning Commission had recommended approval
of the lot split request. He pointed it out on the map, and commented that
this area has a drainage problem and the only way it can be drained is by going
to the Creek someway. He pointed out that this lot split will aggrevate the
water problem because they plan to extend their parking lot. The Council dis-
cussed the drainage problem in this area. The Acting City Attorney said that
he was sure the Knights of Columbus would go along with any solution the Council
can find to resolve the "lake" on 68th Avenue and Lucia Lane. Councilman
Samuelson asked if it would be wise to hold another Public Hearing for storm
sewer. The City Engineer said that he thought it was advisable, but storm
sewers are not popular. Councilman Liebl said he thought it was important to
solve the drainage problem first. The City Manager said that this area is the
source of many complaints because of water. Councilman Samuelson suggested a
Public Hearing be held in October to give the Administration more time for
enginee�ing studies. The City Engineer said that they were ready now as this
has been brought to the Council before.
MOTION by Councilman Samuelson to set up a Public Hearing for the construction
of storm sewer services to the 68th Avenue and Chaa�nel Road area and that the
Lot �plit Request L.S. #69-10 be tabled until the Public Hearing is completed.
Seconded by Councilman Liebl. Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, Mayor
Kirkham declared the motion carried.
