VACATION RE9gEST, SAV #84-04, THOMAS & KATHY SHELTON: Vacate the Southerly $ eet of t e, ort TO of utility easement on Lot 9, Block 4, Rice Creek Estates, to make a ool location and retaining wall in code compliance, the same being 1571 61st Avenue M.E. Mr. Robinson stated this property was located on 61st Avenue and Benjamin St. adjacent to Benjamin/Briardale Park. The petitioners wish to vacate the 10 ft. utility and drainage easement along the back side of their property. He stated Northwestern Bell , Minnegasco, NSP, and Storer Cable have been notified of this vacation request. He stated Northwestern Bell , Minnegasco, and NSP have no objections to the vacation. Storer Cable has an underground cable located within 2 ft. of the property line. Storer has requested that this cable remain as located and that 2 ft. of the utility and drainage ease- ment remain in effect for future construction if necessary. The remaining 8 ft. may be vacated. The petitioner, Mr. Thomas Shelton, stated he had no objection to this stipulation. MOTION BY MR. MINTON, SECONDED BY MR.

RECEIVE SEPTEMBER 18, 1984, ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY COMMISSION MINUTES: MOTION BY MR. NIELSEN, SECONDED BY MS. GABEL, TO RECEIVE THE SEPT. 18, 1984, ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY COMMISSION MINUTES. Mr. Nielsen stated the Commission had a guest speaker, Ms. JoAnn Nelson, from Recycling Unlimited, who spoke about starting curb-side recycling programs in communities. Mr. Nielsen stated he would like the Planning Commission and the City Council to know that the Environmental Quality Commission has worked very hard in trying to get a curb-side recycling program going in Fridley. At the Sept. _ City Council meeting, a member of another organization stated their organi- zation had studied the possibility of getting a curb-side recycling program going with no mention of the Environmental Quality Commission's efforts. He stated that as far as he was concerned,he would like to see a curb-side recycling program get started as soon as the City receives funding. PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, OCTOBER 3, 1984 PAGE 8 Mr. Robinson stated that JoAnn Nelson of Recycling Unlimited would be willing to come into the City and start a curb-side recycling program for $5,000 (from the 50�/household surcharoe fee the City is entitled to) , so there would be little cost to the City. Recycling Unlimited is a tamily- run organization that employs people such as the handicapped to do curb-side recycling. Pick-up would be on a once a month basis. Mr. Nielsen stated the curb-side recycling program would work in conjunction with SORT, and it would not put SORT out of business. Mr. Robinson stated that Ms. Nelson had stated that when Recycling Unlimited comes into a city where there is an existing satellite-type recycling center, that facility has usually done better t :cause people are more aware of recycling. If people miss their recyr Ong day, they will usually bring their recycled materials to the recyr g center rather than throw the materials out. Mr. Robinson stated the only thing Ms. Nelson requested was that the City do the publicity for the program. He stated Connie Metcalf would be going before the City Council regarding this recycling on October 29th. The Environmental Quality Commission suggested that Ms. Nelson of Recyling Un- limited also be allowed to present her proposal at that time. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRWOMAN SCHNABEL DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 6. OTHER BUSINESS: a. Lot Splits and Variances Ms. Gabel stated that at the last meeting, the question has again arisen as to whether the Planning Commission should hear lot splits before the Appeals Commission hears variances when the variances are related to the same property. She stated she felt a lot split appropriately came first. If a petitioner does not get the lot split, then the petitioner does not need to apply for a variance, because the lot split causes the variance. So, she thought the lot split should come before Planning before a variance goes before the Appeals Commission. That seemed to be the proper sequence. Mr. Oquist stated that seemed to be a reasonable argument, but he could give the argument that if the Appeals Commission does not grant the variance, why bother with the lot split? Mr. Saba stated that the lot split should be contingent on the approval of the variance. Ms. Gabel stated that is the way the Planning Commission has done it in the past. The Planning Commission has heard the lot split first, and then made it contingent upon approval of the variance(s) by the Appeals Commission.

PUBLIC HEARING ON VACATION REQUEST, SAV #84-05 , TO VACATE PART OF ABLE STREET NE FOR TARGET. INC. , DICK BROOKS MDTION by Councilman Hamernik to waive the reading of the public hearing notice and open the public hearing. Seconded by Councilman Fitzpatrick. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously and the public hearing opened at 8:14 p.m. Mr. Flora stated this was a request the City has received from Target, Corp. Target currently owns the parcel of property to the east of Able Street and -5- COLnxI , MEETING OF NOV MBM 5,—12R is considering purchasing the large parcel of property to the west of Able Street. In so doing, they are interested in knowing if they are required to keep the street as a boundary, or if they can, in effect, incorporate that street into their development. Therefore, they have requested the City consider the vacation of Able Street between 73rd and the railroad tracks by Locke Park. Mr. Flora stated the Planning Commission was concerned about an alternate access frau 73rd Avenue to Locke Park for use of those facilities by the residents of Melody Manor. Therefore, the Planning Commission recommended to the City Council approval, in principle, with the stipulation that before the vacation actually commences, there be an approved, improved access to Locke Park. Mr. Flora stated they have talked to the Target Corporation and based upon the ultimate use of the property, there could be an easement or road provided along the boundary line, but this depends on has the property is to be used. Mayor Nee stated the people in the audience might be interested to know that this would be taking out most of the land that is now in the inventory for the hazardous waste treatment facility. Staff has worked for about a year to get that land committed to a more acceptable use, and Target indicated an interest in doing that. A citizen in the audience stated he was interested in this item because he lived on Van Buren Street. He asked if Target did expand their warehouse, how did they propose to get all their trucks in and out of the area? Mr. Dick Brooks, Regional Real Estate Manager for Target, stated they have not completed their plans for expansion of the distribution center, but they have entered into an agreement to purchase the property. As far as how they would handle the trucks, they will probably handle them in a similar manner to what they are doing today, which is along 73rd Avenue on the frontage road. He was not able to comment fully because they have not completed their plans. A citizen in the audience asked if the City required landscaping along 73rd Avenue to screen the development from. Melody Manor. Mr. Qureshi stated they have a standard that greenery has to be maintained along 73rd. There has to be a reasonable separation between the development and the residents. Mr. Qureshi stated that, as Mayor Nee had pointed out, 80 acres along 73rd Avenue have been designated by the Hazardous Waste Board for a preferred hazardous waste site. The City has been aggressively pursuing to get this land put to a better use. Luckily for the City, Target decided to expand in the community. They feel Target has been a good cooperative citizen of the community.
