of the ordinance that all yards and spaces could be reduced at once.
The Subcommittee is not directly opposing the statements of the Board of
Appeals, but the factors that they overlooked.
MOTION by Crowder, seconded by Myhra, that the Plats & Subdivisions-
Streets & Utilities Subcommittee recommend to the Plannirg Commission
denial of the Lot Split #69-20, Frank Dircz, to combine 10 feet of Lot 29
with Lot 30, Block 1, Plymouth Addition for the following two reasons:
1) the proposed lot would have on one side 49th Avenue which is a heavily
traveled main artery affording little boulevard, and the proposed 11 foot
setback seems very inadequate. 2) the total of five variances already
granted from the Board of Appeals does not seem to meet the iuten.t of the
City ordinances designed to prevent this sort of thing. Upon a voice
vote, all voting aye, the motion carried unanimously.
4. CONTINUED LOT SPLIT REQUEST: L.S. #69-19 NORTH AIR HOME A,5-_5 ATION,
J. R. P1J=L: South 150 feet of Lit-2S,'" Brookview Addition oubject to
road easement over the South 50 feet.
Mr. Plemel was present.
It was noted that the land acquired for the lot split was a ewamp,
and being zoned R-3, the lot would not be buildable. The Subcot=ittee
wanted to check the amount of land purchased, and wondered if it would be
to the benefit of the Knights of Columbus to purchase additional land
to the North in order to get a buildable lot. Mr. Plemel said L'hLs was
all the land the Knights of Columbus purchased and they had no kuT Cher
plans for expansion in that direction as they just needed additional
parking space.
MOTION by Myhra, seconded by Zeglen, that the Plats & Subdivisions-
Streets & Utilities Subcommittee recommend approval of the lot split,
#69-19, North Air Home Association, J. R. Plemel of the South 150 feet
of Lot 18, Brookview Addition subject to road easement over the South
50 feet, subject to further investigation for the possible need of a
sewer easement. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, the motion carried
unanimously.
Mr. Plemel said the easement is in the present parking lot.
ADJO[JANHENT:
MOTION by Crowder, seconded by Zeglen, that the Plats & Subdivisions-
Streets & Utilities Subcommittee meeting of July 30, 1969 be adjourned at
9:25 P.M. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, the motion carried unanimously.

by fifteen people generally in the 4800 block on 3rd Street and some on 49th
Avenue.
MOTION by Mittelstadt, seconded by Myhra, that the Planning Commission
receive the petition, dated August 5, 1969, referring to Lot Split, L.S.
#69-2031 by Frank Dircz approving the building of a suitable home on Lot 30.
Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, the motion carried unanimously..
MOTION by Mittelstadt that the Planning Commission recommend approval
of Lot Split request, L.S. #69-20, by Frank Dircz to combine 10 feet of Lot
29 with Lot 30 and also approve recommendations made by the Board of Appeals
to grant the following variances: Section 45.29 reduce lot width from 5Q feet
to 45.12 feet; Section 45.29 (2C) distance between living areas from 20 feet
to 15 feet; Section 45.24 street side corner lot from 17� feet to 12 feet;
Section 45.28 reduce lot area requirement from 7500 to 5820 square feet;
Section 45.23 sideyard reduced from 10 feet to 5 feet on existing home, to
allow the applicant to split his lot for a saleable home.
The MOTION FAILED for lack of a second.
Mr. Jensen explained that he did not think it would be appropriate to
grant the proposed lot split with its many variances. The minimum lot size
is 60 feet. With these numerous variances, the lot is really not suitable
for a single family dwelling. It was his own impression that this lot would
be more suitable purchased by the City or County in all or part for a road
right of way. There is a most serious shortage of right of way in this area.
The boulevard for the lot would be five feet. Plowing a street with a five
foot right of way is not wide enough, and a sidewalk is needed on that side
of the street. For children to be walking in such a street is ridiculous.
He thought it would be a far more appropriate thing for the City or County
to acquire part of that lot and Mr. Dircz retain what is deemed necessary.
MOTION by Jensen, seconded by Myhra, that the Planning Commission recom-
ment denial of the lot split request, L.S. #69-20, Frank Dircz, to combine
10 feet of Lot 29 with Lot 30, Block 1, Plymouth Addition and concur with
the recommendations of the Subcommittee as follows : 1) The proposed lot
would have on one side 49th Avenue which is a heavily traveled main artery
affording little boulevard, and the proposed 11 foot setback seems very
inadequate. 2) The total of five variances already granted from the Board
of Appeals does not seem to meet the intent of the City ordinances designed
to prevent this sort of thing. 3) The City should study this lot as a pos-
sible area to acquire more right of way to, perhaps, provide room for future
turn lanes and sidewalks. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, except
Mittelstadt who voted nay, the motion carried.
8. CONTINUED LOT SPLIT REQUEST: L.S. #69-19, NORTH AIR HOME ASSOCIATION, J. R.
PLEMEL: South 150 feet of Lot 18, Brookview Addis-fon subject o roa ease-
' ment over South 50 feet.
Mr. Plemel was present.
The Engineering Assistant reported that there was no need for a sewer
easement for this request because the sewer was located about 12 or 15 feet
onto the property of the Knights of Columbus in Harstad Addition.
Planning; Commission Meeting - August 6, 1969 __- Page 7
MOTION by Myhra, seconded by Jensen, that the Planning Commission recom-
mend approval of the lot split request, L.S. #69-19, North Air Home Association,
J. R. Plemel of the South 150 feet of Lot 18, Brookview Addition, subject to
road easement over South 50 feet. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, the
motion carried unanimously.
9. LOT SPLIT REQUEST: L.S. #69-22, RICHARD GJEVRE: Splitting a strip of land
approximately 10 feet wide along the Westerly edge of Lot 4, Block 1, Sand-
hurst Addition for additional yard.
The Engineering Assistant explained that the purpose was to acquire
more yard for Lot 5. Mrs. Lori Rakos, owner of Lot 4, signed the petition.
MOTION by Mittelstadt, seconded by Myhra, that the Planning Commission
recommend approval of the lot split application #69-22, by Richard Gjevre
which calls for selling a strip of land approximately ten feet wide along
the Westerly edge of Lot 4, Block 1, Sandhurst Addition. Upon a voice vote,
all voting aye, the motion carried unanimously.
10. LOT SPLIT REQUEST: L.S. #69-15, ARTHUR DEYS: Lots 3 to 5, Block 7, Hyde Park
Addition. Referred to Planning Commission by Board of Appeals at their meet-
ing of July 30, 1969.
The Chairman explained that the Board of Appeals requested denial of the
lot split until the old house was torn down and then Mr. Deys return for the
lot split.'
MOTION by Jensen, seconded by Mittelstadt, that the Planning Commission
acknowledge the action of the Board of Appeals and table the lot split request,
L.S. #69-15, Arthur Deys, for Lots 3 to 5, Block 7, Hyde Park Addition until
such time as Mr. Deys comes back. The lot split is to be granted at such time
as the new house is built and the old house acorn down and the application be
made for the lot split showing that there are no variances other than those
already granted. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, the motion carried unani-
mously.

11. AMBER OAKS PLAT: To correct platting error, returning "triangle" from Lot 1,
Amber Oaks to Lot 2, Block 2, Worrel's Addition.
The Engineering Assistant explained that in the Worrel's Addition, part
of Outlot 2, a 50 foot strip out to Stinson Boulevard was proposed for future
street and a radius was included with it. However, in the plat of Amber Oaks,
this street was changed which caused this portion to be part of Lot 1. There-
fore, part of Lot 1, Amber Oaks is actually in front of Lot 2, Block 2, Worrel's
Addition.The owner of Lot 2 in Worrel's Addition is willing to accept a deed
for the small triangle which would result in a straight lot line between
adjoining lots.
MOTION by Mittelstadt, seconded by Myhra, that the Planning Commission
has no objections to splitting off the "triangle" from Lot 1, Amber Oaks,
provided a proper lot split application is signed by the petitioner and the
party it is being sold to, being the property lying south of the south line
of Amber Oaks. Upon a voice voce, all voting aye, the motion carried unanimously.

property, he had thought he eventually would be able to build on it. Mr.
Dircz said that Columbia Heights 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. nor. 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 regular 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. PLEM_EL:
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
I 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
engineering 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 channel Road area and that the
Lot Split 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.

a cesspool. The City Engineer pointed out the proposed plans for road
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
6411 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 easement 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 Arthur Street now but
there is one on 64th and Mississippi. He 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 will 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
because of the high water table.
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

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 minimum 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 him if at the tom@, he bought the

CONSIDERATION OF FIRST READING OF ORDINANCE ON VACATION (LEO 0. LEMKE) SAV
#69-06:
Councilman Sheridan commented that it seemed senseless to him to vacate the
street and not the alley. The City Engineer said that the vacation is only
for the south � of the street. There would still be access into the alley,
but to his knowledge it is not being used. He said that if this is passed on
first reading, then before the second reading is given, there should be the
easements required, and the access to the property settled. Councilman
Sheridan said that he did not think that it should be vacated at this time
and the proper action would be to deny the request.
MOTION by Councilman Liebl to deny the Vacation Request SAV #69-06 by Leo 0.

APPROVAL OF CHANGE IN EXTERIOR FINISH OF RIVERSEDGE WAY APARTMENTS: (James Nelson)
Mr. James Nelson said that the only change is that they would like to use
rough sawn cedar on the exterior rather than stucco. He then came forward and
presented the Council with the plans and said that he hopes to have the buildings
complete by next June. Councilman Harris asked if he still met the require-
ments regarding the brick. The City Engineer said yes, and that he would re-
commend approval subject to obtaining easements and drainage plans.
MOTION by Councilman Harris to approve the change in exterior for the Rivers-
edge Way apartments and approve the permit subject to the City getting the
easements and drainage plans. Seconded by Councilman Liebl. Upon a voice vote,
there being no nays, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried.
APPROVAL OF PLOT PLAN AND OTHER ITEMS FOR COUNTRY KITCHEN RESTAURANT AND
CONSIDERATION OF SIGN PERMIT REQUEST:
The City Engineer said that the interior plans have already been presented to
the Council, and there is no change with those. He said that his suggestion
was to move the building 18' north, and then vacate the roadway. This would
provide about 7' between the curbing and fenced area. There is a sidewalk
running along the south property line. There will be 6' provided between the
sidewalk and the cars. They have agreed on these pointe. They have also
