Petition Checked By Date Percent Signing Referred to City Council Disposition -. ----In u..::.''S1d 17 P March 13. 1984 To the Fridley Planning Commission: We the undersigned residents of the area near Rice Creek School urge you to establish a public greenway on the Rice Creek side of the property when it is developed. Traditionally, this has been public property, available to all the residents for hiking and viewing the creek. (There is not a better view in Fridley. ) We believe to make this private property, available to only a few people, would seriously diminish the quality of life for the present residents and the new residents who will have even more pressure from expanded numbers. Long ago the City of Minneapolis, despite heavy pressure, showed us the way by saving the shores of its lakes for the public. We will applaud your foresite if you do the same. 3iShw MG -71 G s 7 Y- 1E.7 AIA.A, �,� 5 /o ZZ 57-2 -9/ LPI AI !9'11-,VU. 5-7,1-v737a • S 7� QC S 7/- N 12 465 A lzT//iJ2 i '577/ !' 3 /94f 21 1 3 7 517 --"4 - 1 Ki ^/ Ott. t `11( iK 't LL K.VL - 7YJ 1- Planning Commission 2-14-84 18 City Council MAILING LIST P.S. #84-01 , Creekridge, by Thomas Brickner Thomas Brickner Mr. & Mrs. Leon Paquette 6249 Ben More Drive N.E. 1479 Mississippi Street N.E.

TO ACTION INFO-- SUBJECT Nasim Qureshi , City Manager CREEK RIDGE PLAT The City Council approved the Creek Ridge Plat (Rice Creek School ) for Tom Brickner. The plat has not been recorded due to delay in receiving the Rice Creek Watershed approval for the development. Mr. Brickner has requested permission to apply for building permits for the plat. To date we have only issued him one, pending registering of the plat with the County. Due to the delays encountered and the approaching winter season, it would be adventageous for Mr. Brickner to construct his foundations for those homes he has sold within the Creek Ridge Plat. If the Council concurs, we will issue him those permits on the condition that the plat be recorded as soon as Rice Creek Watershed District approval is received.

In order to meet District requirements, rate control and treatment must be provided for runoff from subwatersheds A-1 and A-2 as identified on the above referenced Grading Plan. Rate control must be provided for both the 100-year and 1-year storms while treatment must be provided for 1-year storm runoff. 2. A portion of the proposed development is shown to drain to an existing low area adjacent to the south end of your property. Even though it appears that no increase in runoff to this low area will occur as a result of your development, it is a requirement of the Rice Creek Watershed District that all storage basins have outlets . Design information should be submitted which will show an outlet is provided for this low area. If it is not feasible to provide an outlet to this low area, detailed information should be submitted in support of this position . 3. Exhibits No. 5 and 6 listed above were received from the City of Fridley and in part concern runoff which will drain from subwatersheds C-1 and C-2 of your development as identified in the above referenced Grading Plan. The City's Stormwater Management Plan will be reviewed by the Board of Managers during their October 24, 1984 meeting. Approval of this plan is required before a permit can be approved for your development. 4. The proposed erosion control measures for your development should be revised to include the installation of erosion control barriers along the top of the bank of Rice Creek on the north end of your property. Also, proposed restoration measures should be revised to include the mulching and disk anchoring of mulch for all seeded areas. 5. Ponding and flowage easements will be required over all ponding areas on your property. If you have any questions , please feel free to contact us at 473-4224. Very truly yours, EUGENE A.

John Flora, Director, Pub.Works TO ACTION INFO. )IIJECT Nasim Qureshi , City Manager DRAINAGE PLAN BRICKNER, GENA RAE, BLOMBERG _r During the negotiations for residential development of the Rice Creek School property by Tom Brickner, Staff presented a number of city park options for the area. Incorporated within these park properties were the storm water considerations and the existing retention depressions located on the adjoining properties . The plats and improvements finally approved by the City Council on May 7 maximized the residential lots (29 for Brickner, 9 for Blomberg and 5 future splits) and the conversion of the Gena Rae Plat into a park facility. Upon final approval we commenced preparation of plans for the streets, sewer and water. The overall storm water drainage plan was put on the back burner because of the demand for construction and development of these lots. The development properties consists of six separate drainage areas . The area associated with the Gena Rae Park consists of the Gena Rae Plat and a portion of four of Brickner's lots The storm water plan development and inherent in the storm water assessments for this development satisfies the Rice Creek Water Shed District criteria for water quality and control of run off through a pipe and weir system. Because the pipe is sized to reduce flow velocities, an area is required to hold the water that is backed up. Within the park area and the existing depression, we have restructured the shape to maximize land use without infringing on the principal use of baseball , tennis , basketball and tot lot. Normally no water will be retained in this depression, but during excessive long term rains, in wet soil conditions, water could be backed up for a period up to 3 feet. Brickner's plat consists of three other drainage areas. One goes to Rice Creek, one other to 66th Street and the third into the existing depression oeh oc. his plat. Blomberg has two drainage areas; one onto Old Central and the other through a retention pond into Mississippi Street. None of the work has been completed. Final plans have been submitted to the Rice Creek Watershed District and approval is expected at their October 24 meeting. In the meantime, we have attempted to consolidate the construction in conjunction with the street and sewer system so that they would work regardless of any changes that Rice Creek Watershed District should require. Once the plan has formally been approved and construction completed, the concerns about retention, and property lines should be eliminated.

Dear Mr. Brickner: During their October 24, 1984 meeting, the Rice Creek Watershed District Board of Managers took action to table your permit application pending approval of CSMP 84C16 for the City of Fridley and full compliance with RCWD requirements by your project. The Board also took action to issue a Stop Work Order for your project. Please be informed however, that the Stop Work Order has been lifted on the condition that all exhibits required for approval of your permit application be submitted to the District no later than November 16, 1984 for consideration by the Board during their November 28, 1984 meeting. With regard to your permit application, we have the following additional comments : 1. Based on the topographic information which we have received, it appears that the natural overflow elevation of the lowland along the southern boundary of your property (partly within Block 3 of your development) may be higher than the proposed low building opening elevation of homes in Block 3 of your development. You are required to identify the route and control elevation for the natural overflow from this lowland. Even though your proposed development will not increase the amount of runoff to this lowland, the potential for flooding does exist. If the existing natural overflow does not provide adequate protection, the BOARD OF MANAGERS A.J.CARDINAL,SR. DIANE N.HARSTAD C.T.KING L.H.SCOTT,SR.

Additionally, you are strongly encouraged to seek to obtain easements from property owners which would be impacted by high water levels in the low basin on the south boundary of your property. These easements should seek to insure that the lowland is preserved to an elevation equal to the existing or proposed overflow for the low area. However, this is not a requirements for permit approval . If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at 473-4224. EUGENE A. HICKOK AND ASSOCIATES Engineers for the District Steven G.

QURESHI, CITY MANAGER FRCM: SID INMAN, DIRECIiOR OF CENTRAL SERVICES SUBJECT: SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS ON GENA RAE ADDITION DATE: FEBRUARY 21, 1985 Because of the appeal on the Condemnation of Gena Rae, the County is at this time unable to split the back pieces of property oft. We were under the assumption that we would be able to assess those pieces for park property. We certified the assessments to the County and discovered that they will not slit the property until the final condemnation hearing is held and all appeals are final. Therefore, we will begin the abatement process to remove tnose special assessments from the parcels and will recertify them when the final condemnation hearings and appeals are over, and the property has been split properly. By carbon copy of this memorandum to Pat Sykes, I am asking her to contact the property owners and alert them of the fact that we will be abating those assessments.

As Owner of the land adjacent to the city property I an, requesting that the city consider allowing said land to become part of the adjoining property belonging to Mr. Bloomberg and myself. The following advantages to the City of Fridley would be: a. Additional tax revenue from (4) new homes. b. $4,500.00 in park fees. c. Removal of existing rented older home. d. Elimination of special assessment costs with interest accruing against the city property. e. r;liminate maintenance cost of unbuildable substandard lot. f. Said property would than comform to adjacent new developments. It was my understanding that the land was a trade-off for my granting the park walkway easement to run along the east side of my property.

As I was reading through the comments that Mr. Podman made, I do have to admit that the number of coincidences that seem to have occurred certainly do raise some question. If an impropriety did not occur, it certainly appears that one may have. I guess I would like to get some background information from you prior to the public hearing on July 7th regarding the different options that you and I and Brickner looked at before coming to the final plat for Creek Ridge . In particular, I am curious if the convenient corner access parcel happened to be available in all of those so that lot 1620 always had access to Creek Park Lane . It seems to me that we are going to have to progress very carefully on this matter. We are already being accused of favoring Tom in all of his developments. For a while, I have been believing that that ' s not the case , perhaps there is more to it than meets the eye. What is our usual procedure with regard to triangular pieces of property such as this. I remember that on Hillwind Drive, when the developer was trying to get some excess property, we put him through about 6 to 8 months of legal maneuverings in order to finally allow him to use the parcel of property. It seems to me that the cleanest alternative would be to sell the parcel , declaring it excess property, and allow it to go on open bids. Certainly the property owner to the immediate West should have as much claim or right for use of the property as the property owner to the North. In any event, I would really like some background information prior to the public hearing. At this point, I could not support the replat until we can answer some of the questions that Mr . Podman has raised. Thanks for any information you can provide.

QURESH I, CITY MANPG ER FROM: SAMANTHA ORIJJNO, MANPGEMENT ASSISTANT SUBJECT: REQUEST FROM CDUNCILMAN SGiNEIDER REGARDING CREFKRDIG E PLAT DATE: JUNE 23, 1986 As per Councilman's Schneider ' s request for background information on the different design options for the Creekridge plat, I have attached copies from the Planning Commission and City Council meeting minutes which addressed the different road patterns presented. Also, please find copies of the maps which reflect the road designs and the dates these maps were made available to the Planning Commission and City Council. Below please find a summary of action taken in regards to the Creekridge plat: JANUARY 5, 1984 Preliminary Engineering Report for Street Improvement ST. 1984-1 & 2 indicated the extention of 66th Ave. and a map of the possible extension of Park Creek Lane through the mid-section of the Gena-Rae Addition and then looped into the northeast section of the Rice Creek School. JANJARY 9, 1984 Engineering report presented to City Council. No discussion of Creek Park Lane. FEBRUARY 29, 1984 Public hearing before the Planning Commission on the Creekridge Preliminary Plat. Hearing was continued because of neighborhood concerns that the .9 acre park was not sufficient for the existing and proposed neighborhood. The extension of Park Creek Lane was discussed as well as the possibility of a cui- de-sac which had been proposed by Brickner. It was the concensus of the Planning Co <<ission members that the cul-de-sac design of Park Creek Lane did not allow for an adequate size park and provided no public access. It was agreea that other alternatives be looked at which would allow for the ultimate development of all of the properties. MARQJ 12, 1984 City Council authorized staff to enter into negotiations to acquire the Gena-Rae Addition property for a City park. MARCH 14, 1984 Continuation of the Planning Commissions' s public hearing on the Creekridge preliminary plat. It was noted by John Flora that because of the concerns of the neighborhood that the proposed City park was insufficient, the City had redesigned Park Creek Lane and had begun negotiations to purchase additional land for the park. Me new roaa design allowed Brickner 29 lots, a 2.2 acre City park and would also allow an additional 9 lots to be developed by Mr. Blomberg as well as permit future lot splitting for the large lots to the north. Tne new road design created a corner parcel between parcel 1620 and the newly proposed road. However, in the map presentee, to the Commission, parcel 1620 , whicn waz owned by Mr. Brickner, was shown as divided into four lots with the outlot June 23, 1984 Memo on Creekridge Plat Page 2 attached to one of those four lots. Recommendation was made to the Council that the plat be approved with consideration that the City develop a pathway from 66th Ave. to the proposed park. MARCH 22, 1984 New Preliminary Engineering Report drafted which indicated the new road design of Creek Park Lane. APRIL 2, 1984 City Council's public hearing on the Creekridge final plat, Street Improvement Project ST. 1984-1-Addendum #2 (which included the new road design for Creek Park Lane) , and Water and SEwer Project #145. Concerns were expressed over the costs of the street, water and sewer improvements and who would be assessed. The public hearings on the improvements were continued until the next meeting. APRIL 16, 1986 City Council's public hearings on improvements continued; also consideration of a final plat for Creekridge. Brickner stated that the plat he had originally presented had indicated a cul-de-sac of Creek Park Lane, not a through street and requested that the item be tabled until the next meeting. APRIL 24, 1984 Letter frau John Flora to David Newman requesting that he initiate action to obtain Outlot 1, Block 1 and Outlot 2, Block 2, Gena-Rae Addition for the purposes of constructing a City Park. MAY 7, 1984 Continuation of City Council's consideration of Creekridge's final plat. City Council voted to approve the plat with the stipulations that Outlot h be dedicated for public use, park fee be paid for 29 lots and an access easement from 66th Ave. be provided to the future perk. � r / lr U� g e e- /* HERRICK & NEWMAN, P.A.

Flora(Public Works Director DATE: July 16, 1986 SUBJECT: Creekridge Plat 2 At the July 7, 1986 Council meeting, Councilman Schneider requested information regarding the Creekridge Plat 2. Mr. Brickner's Son owns Lot 1620 which is bounded by 66th Avenue and the Gena Rae Addition Plat. During the Plat approvals for the Creekridge and Hidden Wood Plats, the City decided to acquire the Gena Rae Addition in orc r to"provide for a neighborhood park for this area and they also decided to link the two developments by a single road through the Gena Rae property. At tie October 1 , 1984 Counci meeting, it was decided that provisions would be made for all of the properties north of and adjacent to the Gena Rae Plat to be provided an opportunity to split their large lots and utilities being installed in Creek Park Lane would have their assessments deferred until such time as the lots were split. With the decision of Mr. Brickner's Son to redevelop his parcel of land and split it into four lots, he came to the City and requested easements across the City-awned parcel of land between his lot and the street Creek Park Lane (shown in Exhibit A) . This request rocessed through the Park and C� mm Redtion Coission who on Januarywas 986 redommended that the triangular piece of property by the Brickner lot and Creek Park Lane should be sold by the City to Dir. Blomberg .Mr._ Brickner as a means of prove_,_di.Dg for better lot develor-ment. At-the Planning Commission when the_ lot split was heard, they recommended to the City Council that the City' s triangular piece of property should be sold and incorporated into this lot split. Their reoommendation is shown as Exhibit B. : In order to accomplish the Planning Commission's recommendation, there are three_rareels of property and three owners that need to be incorporated into the action; i.e. the Brickner lot #1620, .Blamberg's fot # 1 which is in =Hidden Woods, and the City's triangular piece of the Gena Rae acquisition. These changes are shown in Exhibit C. There were same additional questions raised as to the amount of property allocated for the park and the triangular piece. Excluding the Creek Park Lane rignt-of-way and the triangular piece of 43 square feet, there remains in the Gena Rae acquisition 2.23 acres of park as shown on Exhibit D. This park area remains as was submitted to the Planning Commission on March 14, 1996 and to the City Gbuncil on April 2, 1984. Another request for information dealt with the values of the Brickner Son's Lot No. 1620. Our Assessor has the four lots valued at $77,400.00 and is shown on Exhibit E. If there is any additional information desired regarding this proposed Lot Split, I will be glad to provide it upon request. JGF/ts Attachments 131RECTORATE , oO°a OF X.

We have determined this triangular outlot to consist of 6,918 square feet. The Planning Ccmnisdion received testimony from a Mr. Povin that the purchase price of the Gena Rae Plat was $.765 cents per square foot.

JGF/ts cc: Jock Robertson COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT r/ CIWOF FWDLEY MEMORANDUM - ILIO M: Chuck Boudreau Recreation Director MED FROM;: Jock Robertson, Community Development Director tFMD DATE: July 25, 1986 REGARDING: Creekridge Park Presently tir. Richard Brickner is attempting to plat the northwest corner of Outlot 1, Gena Rae Addition in order to create two buildable lots fronting Creek Park Lane. Jim Robinson tells me that this is part of a parcel taken by the City for park purposes. At botn the Planning Commission and City Council hearings people expressed concern over the use of this property (taken for public purpose) for private devei olnent. On July 21, 1986 the City Council requested that the City staff look at the potential of adding some or all of Mr. Brickner' s land to our corner of Outlot 1 for the purpose of expanding the present park. This park would of course be subdivided by Creek Park Lane. Jim recalls that while working on the layout of the present park, the staff thought more property would have been desirable. The obvious question now is would an expanded park divided by a local street be a safety hazard? Jack Kirk and Jim discussed the possibility of a passive use of a portion north of the road, perhaps moving the tot lot across the road and adding some benches. 9his would allow for less conflict with the existing park area being mainly active in use. Jim noted that Summit Square is laid out in a similar fashion on both sides of Hughes Avenue. Chuck, if you would address the following questions in a memo it would be very helpful in our response to Council's request: 1. Would the addition of a half acre (two southerly proposed lots) be an asset to the park? 2. Would the addition of an acre (all four proposed lots) be an asset to tine park? 3. Would there be a cost efficient method of developing the property as park land considering our previous expenditures in the existing park? 4. Would the bisecting of a possible expanded park ty the existing road be such a negative aspect as to preclude further study, in your opinion? 5. Do yoc feel the Perks an6 Recreation Commission motion on July 14, 1986 to sell the leftover triangle of land to Brickner would have been different if they felt there was potential for a significant park addition? Thank you for your 000peration. JLPy/dm x1-86-171 cc: Jim Robinson John Flora ✓ .

Newman, Assistant City Attorney DATE: July 25 , 1986 RE: Gena-Rae Dear Mr. Qureshi : I am writing for the purpose of confirming for you that in fact the City of Fridley acquired title in fee simple abso- lute to the property which was the subject of the above condemnation. Because of the fact that the City has this type of title, it is free to use the property as it so desires. Additionally, the certificate in condemnation also states that the property is being acquired for the purpose of maintaining "public park, recreation area, and for other public purpose. " At the July 21, 1986 City Council meeting, the question was raised as to whether or not the City Council had the authority to vacate a special assessment which has pre- viously been levied. It would appear that this question is addressed by Minnesota Statute Section 429 . 071 . Subdivision 1 of this section states that a City Council may make supplemental assessments to "correct omissions, errors, or mistakes in the assessment relating to the total cost of the improvement or any other particular . " In this particular case it would be my opinion that assessing property on the mistaken belief that it has public access would constitute either an error or mistake and that by way of supplemental assessment, this erroneous special assessment could be removed. Additionally, subdivision 2 of the same statute provides a process for reassessment. This subdivision most specifi- cally addresses the question of the procedure available to the City when a court has previously set aside a prior assessment. However , this subdivision also provides that the City Council may reassess a piece of property if it finds that the inti.tial assessment is excessive or if upon advice of the city attorney is determined that for any reason the original assessment is invalid. The particular real estate question would also seem to fall under this category in that if the street access is not provided, the amount of the imposed assessment is far greater than any benefit which the property owner would derive. You next asked the question as to what right a property owner has to place a driveway over the property. As a general rule, it is our opinion that if the City owns fee title to the property, then an adjoining property owner has Mr. Nasim Qureshi July 25, 1986 Page Two no right to use that property as access without the express permission of the City. In most instances, when streets are constructed, the City' s right to construct those streets is obtained through the dedication clause provided for in the plat of the property. In this type of instance, the adjoining underlying fee owners continue to retain a legal title to the property upon which these street and boulevards are constructed. In this type of situation then, when the adjoining property owner constructs his driveway across the boulevard, he is doing nothing more than constructing a driveway upon his own property. This same principle would apply if the City were to acquire by right of condemnation an easement for the construction of a street and adjoining boulevard. The Gena-Rae situation is different in that the City has not acquired an easement but rather has acquired underlying fee title to the City property. Because this property has been acquired for public purposes it is completely legal for the City to use a portion of it for the construction of a street. However, for a citizen to then construct a private driveway across the City property would constitute a trespass . Although not identical, an analogy could be made to the situation where a resident for some reason were to decide he wanted to construct a driveway across park lands. In both cases , the City owns the property and a resident does not have the right to construct a driveway on his property without the permission of the City. You have also indicated to me that in the past the City has often acquired roads through the process of eminent domain. As noted above, a critical question is whether or not the City acquired underlying fee title to these roads or whether the City merely acquired an easement for the construction of these roads . If in fact the City acquired underlying fee title to the road and the boulevard, then in theory the property owner could not cross the boulevard with his drive- way without first obtaining the permission of the City. However, an argument couldbe spade that the reason for obtaining the title to the roadway in the first place was to provide access to the property, and that the City has impli- citly consented to adjoining property owners constructing driveways across the boulevards. I realize that this may appear to be somewhat confusing. In summary, customarily when a City constructs a road, it acquires the right to do so either through the dedication clause contained in the plat or by obtaining a permanent easement. In both cases the adjoining property owner retains the title to the underlying property and this is r Mr. Nasim Qureshi July 25, 1986 Page Three what gives him his authority to construct a driveway across the boulevard. We do not believe that the same authority exists when the City has acquired the underlying fee title for the boulevard and the road. In this instance the adjoining property owner needs to obtain an easement from the City although it could be argued that consent to this easement has been explicitly given since this access is the public purpose behind the construction of the road in the first place.

Please discuss this with me. Thank you, NMQ/la TO: Nasim Qureshi FROM: John G. Flora Did=: August 7, 19f;6 Based upon the recent concern of scare of the property owners in the Creek Ridge Park area, it may be appropriate to install curer` identification signs and playground signs on either end of the cure within the Creek Ridge Park area on Creek Park Lane. Currently, there are only 17 residential properties abutting Creek Park Lane with a potential 5 additional lots. Therefore, the road as it is consturcted and for the purpose it serves will not bear a lot of through traffic and the signage as proposed would serve to inform those visitors to this block of the road alignment and park usage. If you and the Council concur, we can initiate the procurement and installation of these signs.

Burch, Asst. Public Works Director IATE: September 11, 1986 SUBJECT: Hidden Woods, Creek Ridge and Creek Park Lane Storm Sewer System We have reviewed the drainage plans for the Hidden Woods plat, Creek Ridge plat, and the Creek Ridge Park area in response to residents' complaints that storm water has been overflowing the detention basins. Our review indicates that the grading in this area was completed as designed and approved by the RCWD. We have discussed the problems with TDm Blomberg and Tom Brickner, the developers of the plats, and feel that we can make a few refinements in the storm sewer system in this area which will improve the drainage system. Our recomendations are as follows: 1.) Increase the height of the south berm on the Hidden Woods detention area by approximately one foot to elevation of 884.5 and adjust the control weir to provide treatment for this new water level. 2.) Relay the overflow line frau the Hidden Woods detenion area north of Creek Park Lane so that the inlet invert is at elevation 885.5. This line cannot be tied into the catch basin on Creek Park Lane and will have to be tied into the spillway at the Creek Ridge Park pond at elevation 882.8. 9his will prevent water from backf lowing into the north detention area frau the street if the catch basin fills with water. 3.) Increase the height of the south and west berms along the Creek Ridge Park pond to elevation 886.0 and adjust the control weir so that it overflows at elevation 885.0. 7his will allow increased detention in the park detention facility, increased protection for properties on the south side of the park and prevent backup of water f rom the park detention :pond into the north Hidden Woods retention area. Page 2 - IW86-275 These improvements will increase the amount of stony water controlled•into the designated detention ponds in the Creek Park Lane area and should eliminate the problems being experienced by area residents. Residents must realize that during heavy rainstorms, water is intended to collect in these areas for short periods of time and be let into the storm sewer drainage system slowly. We will continue to monitor and maintain these drainage structures and with the help of area residents should be able to keep the system flawing.

I have requesting that you provide information concerning the following items : 1) Actual designs and layout approved by the Rice Creek Watershed District. 2) Provide information that all construction has been either in conformance to the design and if not what has changed. 3) What future actions we can take to make sure that the system works well .

OF .�� 0°O D o PUBLIC WORKS CI YOF MEMORANDUM FM DLEY ZED: Nasim 4ureshi,/City Manager EW86-279 FROM: John G. - Flora,((Public Works Director HAZE: September 17, 1986 SUBJECT: Gena Rae Storm Water System Since the decision was made to redevelop the Rice Creek School into residential development, there has been considerable discussion and concern about the facility and storm water in the invediate areas of the City. It was a decision of the City Council to acquire the Gena Rae Plat parcel for park purposes to provide similar facilities, i.e. , baseball field, skating, tennis oourt, totlot and open play for the neighborhood due to the loss of these faclities with the Rice Creek School. It was also the Council's decision to construct the road (Creek Park Lane) to provide access to the park property for the neighborhood and the plats, Hidden Woods and Creek Ridge. The street utilities and park were constructed in 1984. The land north of Mississippi Street between Old Central and Arthur allowed surface flow to the east and west of an approximate center line of the Property. The lands to the east which consisted primarily of the Rice Creek School sloped to a depression on its southern boundary. The lands to the west sloped to the south to a depression which is in the location of the current Creek Ridge Park detention pond. (See Enclosure #1). With the establishment of the Hidden Woods and Creek Ridge Plats and the Creek Ridge Park, the Rice Creek Watershed District approved a storm water plan which took the majority of the Rice Creek School property and drained it to the north into Rice Creek. The southerly portion of the Rice Creek School property (south half of Creek Ridge Plat) was improved by the oonstruction of Creek Park Lane catch basin system which took the f ront yards of the new plat and conveyed the water into the Creek Ridge Park detention pond. This then allowed only the rear yards of the parcels on the south side of Creek Park Lane to continue to drain into the original depression. This depression was improved by the installation of a pipe which provided an outlet from the depression into the Creek Ridge Park detention pond. In addition, the northern half of the Hidden Woods plat was programmed to be collected and piped into the Creek Ridge Park detention pond. The rear portions of the southern half of the Hidden Woods lots were controlled by a new detention pond which was outletted to Mississippi Street by a pipe which was also connected to the Creek Ridge Park detention p>M outlet. This storm water plan reduced the original runoff area and directed it into the ponds for control and conveyance. (See Enclosure #2). Page 2 - FW86-279 As a result of construction, it has been found that the outlet for the northern pond within the Hidden Woods plat which is connected to the street catch basin may occassionally sur-charge due to minimum slopes. The southern detention pond of the Hidden Woods Plat was not constructed as designed and therefore did not provide design capacity. Accordingly, it is proposed to install a new outlet pipe for the northern detention pond in the Hidden Woods Plat which will connect directly to the inlet pipe to the Creek Ridge Park detention pond. 4his will ensure that water will not back up and it will provide an outlet below the existing new residential basement floors. It is also recommended that the berm line along the southern three parcels of the Hidden Woods Plat be raised with the weir structure in order to provide the design capacity and also prevent water flow out of the plat to the south. mese items have been discussed with Mr. Blomberg, the developer, and a formal letter is being sent requesting the improvements be initiated as soon as possible. In addition, it is also proposed to raise the detention pond walls on the west and south sides of the Creek Ridge Park detention pond to provide additional storage for storm water runoff fran Hidden Woods and Creek Ridge plats and will not overflow into the property to the south. 7his work is being initiated at this time. (See Enclosure #3). In the existing condition, we have reduced the quantities of water which originally flowed into the natural depressions in this area. With the suggested improvements, we will provide a means whereby we will reduce surface water runoff to the properties to the south from the original and existing conditions. Therefore, properties along Mississippi will experience a reduced quantity of water which continues to flow over the natural drainage course. This entire drainage system flows under Mississippi Street to a depression and then by surface flow to the south into the Harris pond ditch. The efficiency of this system can be materially improved which will not only benefit the properties north of Mississippi but also those between Mississippi and the Harris pond ditch by the installation of a pipe f roan Mississippi within the street right-of-way to the Harris pond ditch. this improvement while is not the total solution for the storm water within this area, would satisfy those concerns of the neighborhood that we have heard this past year when we encountered these extra-ordinary rainfall events. With the noted improvements for the Hidden Woods and Creek Ridge Plats, we will in fact improve the storm water problems in this area. With the construction of a pipe outlet, we will not only enhance the Hidden Woods and Creek Ridge Plat systems but also the neighborhood between Arthur and Old Central, and Mississippi and the Harris Fond Ditch. If the Council desires, they should consider an improvement project for this storm water line construction. This area has not had a storm water system installed nor a storm water assessment levied.

Both Mark and I are available to discuss the requirements identified by the Council for the property to be developed by Mr. Brickner. In response to your Speed Message, we have provided you .on October 9, 1986 the detailed plans, canputations and proposal for the storm water system in this immediate area. We are currently devleoping a project and estimated costs for the continuation of this system into the Harris Pond Ditch. We will be providing you that information shortly. JGF/ts DIRECTORATE ��'� 00 O F °o 0 PUBLIC WORKS CITYOF MEMORANDUM 1 FW DLEY TO: John G. Flora, Public Works Director PW86-304 FROM: Mark L. Burch, Asst. Public Works Director DATE: October 20, 1986 SUBJECT: Street and Storm Water Improvements for 64th Ave. frcm Central Ave. to Arthur St. We have been working with the developers of the Hidden Woods and Creek Ridge Plats this summer to finish the drainage systems in these areas and put them into working order. These systems are now near completion and we need to concentrate on improving the system downstream toward the Harris Ditch. We have experienced drainage problems in the area north of 64th Ave. to Mississippi St. which can be improved with the addition of a storm sewer line from the ponding area south of Mississippi St. to the Harris Ditch. We have estimated the cost of installation of this storm sewer line at $37,000.00. If this project were con- structed and assessed to the appropriate drainage area, the cost would be approximately $3.00 per 100 square feet. Another improvement project which could be constructed along with the storm sewer in this area would be the construction of 64th Ave. from Central Ave. to Arthur St. The improvement of this street to our City standards with concrete curb and gutter is estimated to cost $98,000.00. If this project were assessed to the property owners along 64th Ave., the assessment would run approximately $45.00 per assessable foot. If these projects are of interest to the City Council, we will pre- pare detailed plans and revised estimates for their consideration.

Last year when Mark Burch and I discussed this matter the question came up as to who would ■aintain the sod. The property owner's. Mr and Mrs John Benedict,would prefer to plant some maintence free ground co� sr. As soon as the sod is laid it will need watering. Mark had told se if the home owner's choose not to maintain the sod that the city will take care of it,4,1-4f' Our intent is to sod on Tuesday May 30, 1989. If for some reason our schedule changes,I will call you the morning the sod is to be laid. rSincly,Bri Brickner Builders', Inc. c.c.

Two Softball Tournament Requests Dr. Boudreau stated the City has already received two softball tournament requests--one from the Deaf Association and one from the Suburban Girls Softball League (a fast-pitch league of the metropolitan area). He just-wanted to make the Commission aware of these two requests. 4. NEW BUSINESS: a. 1984 Softball Registration Fees Mr. Kirk stated he would like approval of the 1984 softball registra- tion fees.

Policy - Ice Locations (Dick Young) Dr. Boudreau stated this has been discussed at the last 2-3 meetings. The Policy on Ice Locations as amended was retyped and was included in the Commission's agenda packet. MOTION BY MR. YOUNG, SECONDED BY MS. SCHP.EINEP., TO RECOMME17D TO CITY COUNCIL THE APPROVAL OF THE POLICY ON ICE LOCATIONS IN THE CITY OF FR I DLE Y. 1 CITY OF FRIDLEY PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING FEBRUARY 13, 1984 CALL TO ORDER: Chairperson Kondrick called the February 13, 1984, Parks & Recreation Commission meeting to order at 7:40 p.m. ROLL CALL: Menbers Present: Dave Kondrick, Dick Young, Dan Allen Members Absent: Mary Schreiner, Jan Seeger Others Present: Charles Boudreau, Parks & Recreation Director Jack Kirk, Recreation Supervisor APPROVAL OF JANUARY 23, 1984, PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION MINUTES: MOTION BY MR. YOUNG, SECONDED BY MR. ALLEN, TO APPROVE THE JANUARY 23, 1984, PAP.KS & RECREATION COMMISSION MINUTES AS WRITTEN. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON KONDRICK DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. APPPROVAL OF AGE14DA: The following items were added to the agenda: "Update on Rice Creek School Situation" - Item a under "Director's Report" "F.Y.S.A. " - Item a under "Other Business" Chairperson Kondrick declared the agenda approved as amended. 1 . DIRECTOR'S REPORT: a. Update on Rice Creek School Situation Dr. Boudreau stated that, as the Commission members were aware, Tom Brickner had purchased the Rice Creek School property (about 10 acres) from the School District. Dr. Boudreau stated his concern centered around the park dedication. Mr. Brickner is required to give a park dedication of .09 acres. When Mr. Brickner first went to the City Council with a proposal , the parcel he was going to dedicate for park land was located somewhat in the center of the property. which t PARK 8 RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING, FEBRUARY 13, 1984 PAGE 2 U high ground. Dr. Boudreau stated this was acceptable to both the City Council and to him. Since then, Mr. Brickner has changed his mind and has come back with another proposal in which he would give the City park land on the eastern side of the property plus buying the backs of two lots, which is about 100 ft. by 60 ft. Dr. Boudreau stated this is a wet, low area, 7 ft. lower than where the park is located now. He raised the point that this would be a substandard .09 acre piece of land with two back lots that are very wet and very unusable for park purposes because of the drainage onto them. Dr. Boudreau stated his feelings to Councilman Schneider that if the center parcel was not available, from the City's standpoint, he would rather take the money and move the present tennis court to Harris Lake which is two blocks away. He stated the City has substandard parks in the City and another such area is not needed. He pointed out neighborhood parks such as Benjamin-Briardale, Madsen, Flanery, and Sylvan are nice neighborhood parks because they are in the middle ' of a neighborhood, thus serving the residents. Dr. Boudreau stated that not only does the City not need another .09 acre park, but on top of that Mr. Brickner has planned 23-24 homesites which is putting an average of 50 more people into that neighborhood. They can't serve the neighborhood now, because there is not adequate park land. Dr. Boudreau stated he brought this to the Commission for their information as he had told them he would keep them informed. He stated it was his recommendation that the City does not need another substandard piece of park land to service a neighborhood that is already void of sufficient park area. NOTION BY MR. YOUNG, SECONDED BY MR. ALLEN, TO CONCUR WITH STAFF'S RECOMMENDATION THN THE CITY DOES NOT NEED ANOTHER SUBSTANDARD PIECE OF PARK LAND IN THE CITY OF FRIDLEY AND THAT THE CITY COUNCIL BE CAUTIOUS WHEN CONSIDERING THE PLAT FOR THAT AREA AND WORK FOR PARK LAND THAT WOULD SERVICE THE PEOPLE IN THE RICE CREEK DISTRICT. Mr. Allen agreed. He emphasized further that the Commission does not feel the City should accept below standard park land for that area. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON KONDRICK DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 2. NEW BUSINESS: a. Softball Tournament Requests Mr. Kirk stated that at the last meeting, the Commission felt it was a good idea to contact those organizations that have sponsored tournaments in the past to find out what their intentions were for this year. He t PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING MARCH 26 1984 PAGE 2 program are still down, that may be justification to either eliminate or designate some different alternatives for those hockey rinks. They started with 10 hockey rinks designated for the City, 9 of them used by the HAF. To his knowledge, the HAF used 3 of those rinks last year. b. Rice Creek School Dr. Boudreau stated he would give the Commission a brief overview of what has developed with the Rice Creek School property. He stated Tom Brickner has purchased the land at Rice Creek School from the School Board. It is going to be developed residential which means the City should develop some type of park facility to service the Rice Creek School area residents. Mr. Brickner's required dedication to the park development was .09 acres. At the last meeting, the Commission agreed that amount of land was not adequate, because the City had recommended 3-5 acres to service over 2,000 people in this isolated Rice Creek School area. Dr. Boudreau stated discussions were held with Mr. Brickner, but Mr. Brickner was not willing to give up prime buildable lots for park land. He had suggested some land further to the south by buying two back lots of two existing homes. There is a 7 ft. drop between what park is there now and this new land, and it is essentially a drainage area for the neighborhood. He stated he could not accept that land because it was substandard, and the Commission agreed with him. Dr. Boudreau stated that since that time, Tom Blomberg has bought some property from Herb Bacon and the Gena-Rae Addition which is in the center and West of the school . Between the three parcels of property, the City will ena up with 2.2 acres of - dedicated park land. He stated that in his estimation this was the best they could do with the given parameters. Mr. Kondrick outlined the proposed developments and park area on the map. Dr. Boudreau stated the Commission might want to stipulate that there be an easement from 66th Ave. to the new proposed park. Mr. Kondrick asked about the recreational facilities presently located at the school . Dr. Boudreau stated he has been told by Mr. Brickner that there would be no problem in removing the recreational equipment; however, he stated it might be a good idea for the Commission to make a motion as part of the final commitment by the City Council on this plan, the City should be allowed to remove all the equipment on the school ground that is currently there and usable for park and recreation purposes. This would include PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING, MARCH 26, 1984 ` PAGE 3 the hockey rink with lights, playground equipment, tennis court equip- ment including fencing, basketball pole, lights along the east side along Arthur Street, and the back stop. MOTION BY MS. SEEGER, SECONDED BY MR. ALLEN, TO RECOMMEND TO THE CITY COUNCIL THAT BEFORE FINAL AGREEMENT IS MADE BY THE CITY COUNCIL ON THIS PLAN, THE CITY BE ALLOWED TO RECLAIM THE P.ECREATIO-%AL PROPERTY FROM RICE CREEK SCHOOL. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON KONDRICK DECLARED THF. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. c. Ethnic Festival Dr. Boudreau stated he wanted to remind the Commissioners of the 6th annual Fridley Ethnic Festival which will be held on March 30-31 at the Fridley Community Education Center. He would invite the Commissioners to attend the festival which is a combined program between Community Education and the Park, Recreation, and Natural Resource Department. 2. NEW BUSINESS: a. Softball Tournament Request - Fridley Jaycees Dr. Boudreau stated that at the last meeting, the Commission approved a tournament request by the Jaycees for Aug. 11-12. Evidently, they generally have a regional Jaycee tournament held each year which has been run by the Crystal Jaycees. The Fridley Jaycees wrote in a letter that, "at a very late date, however, the Crystal Jaycees determined they would not be able to run the tournament this year. The Region contacted the Fridley Jaycees and requested that we bid and run this tournament. Regional tournament is always run the week before state tournament. State tournament is already scheduled for Aug. 11-12 in St. Cloud. Fridley Community Park has a tournament scheduled for the weekend of Aug. 11-12, and it is our understanding that the policy is that the fields cannot be scheduled for tournaments on two consecutive weekends. Our preference would be the weekend of Aug. 4-5, but if you must absolutely hold to that, which we fully understand, our next choice would be July 28-29". b. Softball Tournament Requests - Spring Lake Park Ambulance Program and Joe's Place Pizza Dr. Boudreau stated the tournament request by the Spring Lake Park Ambulance Program was marked as a non-profit City of Fridley organiza- tion. Their letter (on Independent School District #16 letterhead) stated: "The Spring Lake Park Senior High Ambulance Program is a non- profit organization that operates two ambulances that are licenses by Health Central , Inc., based at Unity Medical Center in Fridley. The program participants are high school students in training to be nationally certified emergency medical technicians as well as graduates who provide PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING JUNE 18 1984 PAGE 5 Mr. Kondrick stated the Parks & Recreation Commission was happy to have the Jaycees play in one of the City-sponsored tournaments. He stated they were very grateful to the Jaycees for their interest and care in the community and the community's parks. Dr. Boudreau stated the Jaycees have paid for the repainting of the Puppet Wagon that was damaged last year in a storm. The Jaycees built the wagon and donated it to the City. The Jaycees also have their name on two scoreboards at the community park. He stated the Jaycees have helped the City with a lot of projects, and the City has had a very congenial working relationship with them. In the eight years he has been with the City of Fridley, this group, along with some other groups, has been very helpful to the Parks & Recreation Department. The City thanked the Jaycees for their help. Mr. Eggert stated their charter membership is growing again. It is up to 80 members and shooting for 90. He stated they need to provide the members with projects they can relate to in the community, and he would encourage the Commission to think of them when different projects come up. c. Summer Program Dr. Boudreau stated the summer program started that day with the play- grounds. He stated some of the other activities started the first of June. Once again, he would like to encourage the Commission members to stop by and visit some of the programs that are going on and talk to the leaders. He stated it really meant a lot to the young people leading these programs. d. Rice Creek School Site Dr. Boudreau stated that evidently, the people who were willing to sell some land to the City for a park in the Gena-Rae Addition have become unwilling sellers. He stated he and Councilman Schneider both testified in front of the owners' attorney and court reporter as to the need for a park area in the Rice Creek School area. He stated he would be going to court the following day with the City Attorney to testify once again as to why there is a need for park land in that Gena-Rae area. He stated he did give as testimony some of the conversations held by the Commission on what the Commission thought was needed in this area. Dr. Boudreau stated he would keep the Commission informed about the negotiations on that parcel of land for the development of a park. Dr. Boudreau stated the City did salvage its park equipment from the Rice Creek School site and it will be used again in another location. PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING, JULY 16, 1984 PAGE 2 weeds are cut, it will be treated with alum to reduce the growth, and then they will cover the outer area with a polyethylene liner. The liner will be anchored to the shoreline with rocks. Dr. Boudreau stated Hickok and Associates has received DNR approval for this. Hickok & Associates will also put in a new aeration system which supposedly is different in that it will not keep the lake open during the winter. It only keeps one small breathing hole open in the winter. The DNR also wants Hickok & Associates to dig a well to pump water into the basin to keep the east and west basins somewhat equalized in the winter time. Hickok & Associates thinks this is quite expensive, so they are working with DNR to try to get them to eliminate the digging of the well from the specs. Dr. Boudreau stated this restoration will be accomplished with a grant and City money. It should improve the quality of water in the lake. Nothing will be done in the beach area, except Hickok & Associates will dump some additional sand into the beach area. Dr. Boudreau stated he wanted to bring the Commission up to date on what is happening with Moore Lake, and this stage of the restoration will begin in the middle of August. Ms. Schreiner stated this would make some difference in regard to the discussion the Commission members had a couple of months ago about the use of the beach, whether or not to continue maintenance of the beach- house, etc. She had been under the impression that the use of the beach was dwindling, but this year it seems the usage of the beach has really increased. b. Development in Rice Creek School Area Dr. Boudreau stated that in August the City is supposed to get title to the land in the Gena-Rae Addition for a park. If that happens, he hopes to request funding from City Council yet this year, in addition to the regular budget, in order to start development of a tennis court/basketball hard-surfaced area and playground equipment. They are looking at some extensive grading because the west end of the property is low, and they want to put it together with the road that will be coming through that area. He stated he walked the area the other day, and there is a nice area for playground equipment and tennis court area. He hoped to get that in so the neighborhood would have something by next summer. 2. NEW BUSINESS: a. Sept. - Dec. 1984 Meetings Mr. Young stated he has been given the opportunity to teach fall quarter night classes in computer programming at Anoka-Ramsey Community College. Unfortunately, the classes are scheduled on Monday evenings from Sept. to Dec. This will be in conflict with the Parks & Recreation Commission meetings. He stated he would check into this further to see if there was t PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING, SEPTEMBER 24, 1984 PAGE 4 r UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON KONDRICK DECLARED THE NOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. b. Petition for Golf Course Dr. Boudreau stated he had included this information to keep the Commission informed on this issue. At the City Council meeting on Sept. 10, the City Council did receive an Initiative Petition No. 8-1984 from the Committee for the Construction of an 18-hole golf course on the 128-acre city-owned land known as North Park (Springbrook Nature Center). In the City Council minutes , "Mayor Nee stated he would like to raise the issue of the legality of this petition. Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, stated he was aware a petition might be submitted, and would like an opportunity to review it and give a formal opinion by the next Council meeting. Councilman Barnette stated the Charter covers this question on how to proceed. Mr. Herrick stated there is no question there is a procedure in the Charter; however, it is a matter of whether the subject matter of the petition falls within what is permitted in that type of initiative." A motion was made by Councilman Schneider, seconded by Councilman Fitzpatrick, to direct the City Attorney to review the initiative petition for legality. The motion carried unanimously. Dr. Boudreau stated the City Council was meeting that evening. and they are expected to receive the City Attorney's opinion. As far as he knew, the City Attorney's opinion was that everything was legal according to the City Charter. What City Council action would be taken at this meeting, Dr. Boudreau would report to the Commission at their next meeting. He felt that since this was a Parks & Recreation Commission, the members should be aware of this information and aware of the names on the sponsors of the committee of electors. Dr. Boudreau stated the Commission would be receiving in the mail a letter sent out by the Springbrook Nature Center Foundation that was not put out by the City. Along with that letter was the advertisement of the fall festival on Sat. , Sept. 29, at the Springbrook Nature Center and the grand opening of the new handicapped trail which was recently constructed. c. A-Frame Lease Dr. Boudreau stated the City has signed a ten-month lease with the School District for use of the A-frame at a cost of $550/month. They have remodeled and repaired the building. The School District should be moving in that day. d. Gena Rae Development Dr. Boudreau stated this area was for the replacement of the playground area at Rice Creek School . They have graded the land and will be putting in a tennis court, playground equipment, and a "free play" area. They PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING, SEPTEMBER 24, 1984 PAGE 5 will try to put in an ice pad this winter. The expenditure for the equipment is not necessary because they salvaged the equipment that was at Rice Creek School and will place it into the Gena Rae develop- ment. They hope to have all accomplished by the spring of 1985. e. Trail Opening for Nature Center Dr. Boudreau stated that, as he had mentioned earlier, Springbrook Nature Center will be having their grand opening of the new handicapped trail on Sat. , June 29, at the second annual fall festival . The trail is 1/3 mile long and allows access to the handicapped. He would encourage the Commission members to attend the day's festivities. 3. NEW BUSINESS: a. Northeast Chamber Orchestra Request - 1985 Dr. Boudreau stated the Commission members had a copy of the request from the Northeast Chamber Orchestra that the City support the orchestra in 1985 as they did in 1984 with six concerts maximum at $150/concert. Dr. Boudreau stated the Commission might want to consider this request along with the Fridley City Band, as that request would also be coming soon. The agreement with the Fridley City band was essentially the same, $150/coricert, for a maximum of 9 concerts. Ms. Schreiner stated she was in favor of approving the same agreement as last year with the City Band and the Northeast Chamber. It seemed a good way of solving the problem of funding the band and the orchestra. MOTION BY MS. SCHREINEP,, SECONDED BY MR. NELSON, TO RECOMMEND THAT THE CITY HAVE THE SAME TYPE OF ARRANGEMENT WITH THE FRIDLEY CITY BAND AND NORTHEAST CHAMBER ORCHESTRA FOR 1985 AS IT DID FOR 1984, WITH A MAXIMUM NUMBER OF CONCERTS FOR EACH AT $150/CONCERT.

Plaza Prograrivning Mr. Kondrick stated he had requested this item be put on the agenda. He stated Fre was wondering if the Commission had any ideas on how they could best utilize the plaza area to a greater advantage in 1985. It was a pretty area, and if there were some additional programs that could be put in the plaza to bring people there, it would be nice. Dr. Boudreau stated the plaza was not a park facility. He stated the Center City Plaza area is open for public use. The City does assist by programming some programs in the plaza, mostly by assisting the PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING, NOVEMBER 20, 1984 PAGE 5 b. Naming of Park - Rice Creek School Dr. Boudreau stated the Commission had the opportunity of naming the new park near the old Rice Creek School location. He stated he believed the road that ran by the park was Creekridge Road. MOTION BY MR. YOUNG TO NAME THE NEW PARK, CREEKRIDGE PARK. MOTION DIED FOR LACK OF A SECOND. MOTION BY MR.

Softball Tournament Refund - "Dare to Care" Dr. Boudreau stated that the "Dare to Care" organization did not hold the tournament as scheduled last summer. He stated the City still had their check for $600 which has been deposited. He stated the policy says the City should keep the $600; however, the Commission had agreed to only charge Tony Wajda of Joe's Place Pizza $250 or 1/4 of the fee when he cancelled his tournament. Maybe the Commission might want to consider something similar for the "Dare to Care" organization. Dr. Boudreau stated the "Dare to Care" organization cancelled their tournament 5 days early. They have been very honest and have not asked for any refuri of the $600 deposit. The money was deposited on June 26th. Dr. Boudreau stated the City's policy states: "If the tournament sponsor withdraws its application or the tournament is cancelled two weeks or more prior to the day of the tournament, the park facility will be refundable minus $100 plus administrative cost by the Cfty." Dr. Boudreau stated he would suggest they refund the "Dare to Care" organization all but 1/4 of the $600, which was $150. Mr. Young stated he would like to be able to refund the total $600, but it would be setting a precedent. Mr. Kondrick and Ms. Schreiner stated they thought the City should keep some of the money and 1/4 of the total amount seemed reasonable. MOTION BY MS. SCHREINER, SECONDED BY MR. ALLEN, TO RECOMMEND THAT THE CITY KEEP $150 OF THE $600 PARK FACILITY FEE AND THAT $450 BE REFUNDED TO THE "DARE TO CARE" ORGANIZATION. PARKS b RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING, DECEMBER 18, 1984 PAGE 2 Mr. Flora stated there was no fear of any loss of park maintenance support because all they have done is move six people across the hall . They used to have three divisions in Public Works, and now they have four divisions--Streets, Water, Sewer, and note Parks. Each division has its own foreman, but all report to one supervising superintendent. Mr. Flora stated that through this reorganization, they hope to get some improvements in equipment and operation and personnel supervision. They also look forward to making some improvements in the total operation of the parks. Since they now have control of all the resources of the garage and people, they hope to be able to do some things a little better. Ralph Volkman, Superintendent of the Public Works Dept. , used to be in the Parks Departement about 10 years ago, so he has a good knowledge and experience in park operation. He felt that next year, they should be able to see some improvements, and that is their goal . Mr. Kondrick stated he had had some concerns in the beginning about this reorganization, but he now felt confident in the ability of the City to make the adjustment and take care of the needs of the park areas. He also felt the increased manpower was going to make a difference in terms of how things were done. Dr. Boudreau stated one important thing they have seen in the last month and a half since they have switched over is that the nitpicking and bickering back and forth between divisions has been reduced. This is going to make the people work more as a team, that it is the City's responsibility, and not just the Park's responsibility, or Water's responsibility, or Sewer's responsibility, etc. Dr. Boudreau stated that in the month and a half they have been getting to know this new operation a little better, he has seen an overall more efficient operation. 3. OLD BUSINESS: /A a. Naming Park - Rice Creek School Mr. Flora stated the street adjacent to the new park area is Creek Park Lane. The name of the plat is Creek Ridge Plat. MOTION BY MR.

Meeting Dates for 1985 Dr. Boudreau stated the Commission members had a list of tentative meeting dates for 1985. These meeting dates were all on Mondays. He stated Mr. Flora will not be able to attend the Commission meetings i PARKS & RECREATION C01111ISSION MEETING, JANUARY 6, 1986 Pp.Gr 8 � e. Request - Raffaele's Blazers Broomball Team Dr. Boudreau stated this was a request from a broomball team to hold a broonball tournament at the two Columbia outdoor rinks. He stated the Cita does not have a broonball league. It was a situation of a private organization wanting to use city facilities to raise funds, and it has been the City's policy to discourage these types of requests. Staff' s recommendation was that this request be denied. Mr. Kondrick stated they have had similar requests in the past, and he felt the philosophy and policy should remain the sane for this request also. 1'OTIO:: BY M.R. ALLE', SECO.':DF.D BY MR.

Request - Purchase of City Property Dr. Boudreau stated tor. Brickner was requesting that the City consider allowing the purchase of the triangular piece of property on the northwest corner of Creek Park Lane. The advantages to the City would be: PARKS b RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING, JANUARY 6, 1936 PAGE 9 r 1. Additional tax revenue fron four new homes 2. $4,500 in park fees 3. Removal of existing rented older hone �. 4. Elimination of special assessment costs with interest accruing against the city property , 5. Eliminate maintenance cost of unbuildable substandard lot 6. Said property would then conform to adjacent new developments. It was the concensus of the Commission members that they saw no problem with the City pursuing this purchase with F1r. Brickner and Mr. &lomhcrg 3. OLD BUSINESS: a. Neadowlands Park Report Mr. Gustafson stated the Connissioners had received the proposal developed by the citizens for the development of Meadowlands Park site dated Nov. 1R, 1985. Mr. Gustafson stated basically they got a representative from each block of homes around the park area who net and put this report together. The input was from those residents and from studies of the proposals and cost estimates done by TKDA in June 1935. Mr. Gustafson stated that more than anything else, the residents want to work with the City in getting things started, realizing everything cannot be done at once. They would like to put together sone kind of plan where over the next 3-4 years, Meadowlands Park will be taken care of to make it more usable park land. Mr. Gustafson stated they felt the development should take a three-fold purpose: 1 . drainage system 2. ponding with aeration 3. improve land with passive use 1-1r. Gustafson stated they felt it was imperative that the drainge problen be handled first as no other development is plausible until this is complete. Mr. Gustafson stated questions were raised about the problem with mosquitoes with a pond. They contacted Anoka County, and Anoka County will take care of those kinds of problems. Mr. Gustafson stated that regarding purpose #3, it was the concensus of all the neighborhood that they really do not wish to see the city put a lo* of money into ballfields, basketball courts, etc. They just want a walking trail , plantings, trees, possibly picnic tables, etc. Mr. Gustafson stated it was cost effective in putting it together. Instead of S240-250,000 as proposed last year, they are looking at approx. S135,000. c 0 PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING, JULY 14, 1986 PAGE 6 The Commission members discussed the possibility of having the meeting at another location other than City Hall . Mr. Kirk stated one possi- bility would be to hold the meeting at the Community Education Center which was right across from Commons Park. MOTION BY MR. GARGARO, SECONDED BY MR.

Kondrick stated there was a triangular piece of property in the northwest corner of Creekpark Lane that a developer wants to use for easement for driveways to buildable lots. Mr. Kondrick stated that in the Jan. 6, 1986, Parks & Recreation Commission minutes, Dr. Boudreau had stated that fir. Brickner was requesting that the City 91low the purchase of the triangular piece of property in the northwest corner of Creekpark Lane. Dr. Boudreau had stated the advantages to the City would be additional tax revenue from four new homes, $4,500 in park fees, removal of existing rented older home, the elimination of a special assessment cost with interest accruing against the city property, elimination of maintenance costs on buildable substandard lots, and the property would then conform to adjacent develop- ments. Also stated in the ninutes was that it was the concensus of the Parks & Recreation Commission members that they saw no problem with pur- suing this purchase with Mr. Brickner. Ms. Schreiner stated she did not see any value in this property remaining as park property. She also did not think the property should be given away. The other Commission members agreed.

MOTION BY MR. OQUIST, SECONDED BY MR. KONDRICK, TO OPEN THE PUBLIC HEAPING ON P.S. #84-01 BY THOMAS BRICKNER. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRWOMAN SCHNABEL DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING OPEN AT 7:35 P.M. _ T PLANNI14G COMMISSION MEETING, FEBRUARY 29, 1984 PAGE 2 Mr. Flora stated they have received a request from Mr. Brickner for a preliminary plat for the Creekridge area, essentially the Rice Creek School property. Mr. Brickner has an option to purchase that property from School Dist. 14 and develop it as R-1 residential housing. Mr. Flora stated Mr. Brickner's plat identifies a total of 29 residential properties which would conform to city code and, as identified, a five-lot section of about .9 acres for a city park development. Mr. Flora stated that City Code, Chapter 211 , requires that 10% of any large plat be dedicated for a park, or like amount of money. Since there has been a lot of use of the park equipment on the school property by the residents (tennis court, baseball field, basketball court, hockey) in the neighborhood, Staff felt there was a need for a park in this area. The closest park is at Harris Lake. He stated Staff also had a problem with a parcel of only .9 acres in that it was relatively small and would not provide enough space to provide the services that are necessary for the neighborhood. Mr. Flora stated Staff looked at the entire area between Central Avenue, Stinson Blvd. , Rice Creek and Mississippi Street. The area is relative- ly developed, except for three parcels of' undeveloped land. These are, the Rice Creek School property, the Gena-Rae Addition and a portion of property adjacent to the Gena-Rae Addition. In looking at the total area, Staff felt they could, through the subdivision ordinance , obtain around 1 .8 to 1 . 9 acres of city park from all of this development to support the neigh- borhood. The Parks & Recreation Director would prefer something closer to 3 acres, as this would be an adequate size to provide tennis, basketball , baseball , outdoor recreation, and a tot lot, for this neighborhood. Accordingly, they have continued to study the Brickner plat to designate a park of 2 1/2 acres and still provide Mr. Brickner with 22 buidable lots, a reduction from the 24 lots he originally had in his proposal . It was thought that the City would purchase the two additional lots from Mr. Brickner. Mr. Flora stated Mr. Brickner has some feelings about having a park directly to the rear of his development, but the City feels that if a park is to be provided in this neighborhood, the less than one acre provided by this plat would not provide sufficient space and would not provide for the services needed by the neighborhood. Ms. Schnabel stated that other than the park property in question, were there any other staff concerns in terms of the plat as proposed? Mr. Flora stated, no, Staff has no problem with the plat as proposed. It ties in with the existing 66th Ave. and forms a loop onto Arthur St. , which will provide relatively good lots. The proposal for either a cul-de-sac or a continuation of a road into the property which may be developed to the west, provides some flexibility for future development. The only concern 6 � PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, FEBRUARY 29, 1984 PAGE 2 Mr. Flora stated they. have received a request from Mr. Brickner for a preliminary plat for the Creekridge area, essentially the Rice Creek School property. Mr. Brickner has an option to purchase that property from School Dist. 14 and develop it as R-1 residential housing. Mr. Flora stated Mr. Brickner's plat identifies a total of 29 residential properties which would conform to city code and, as identified, a five-lot section of about .9 acres for a city park development.

The proposal for either a cul-de-sac or a continuation of a road into the property which may be developed to the west, provides some flexibility for future development. The only concern 6B PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, FEBRUARY 29, 1984 PAGE 3 found by Staff was the question of a park, and the property currently advocated by Mr. Brickner for the park was inadequate to service the needs of the neighborhood. Mr. Flora stated the park evisioned by Staff would provide an access from three sides, but there would be no street tie-in. He stated Staff has looked at many other alternatives, but they feel this alternative provides for the best use of the property in the planned development. Ms. Gabel stated that in the Feb. 13, 1984, Parks & Recreation Commission minutes, there was some discussion with reference to a substandard piece of land for a park because of the drainage onto it. Mr. Flora stated Staff has disregarded the southwestern site because it was a low, wet area. Ms. Schnabel asked Mr. Brickner if he would like to make some comments. Mr. Brickner stated that first of all , he wanted to say that he has been a resident of Fridley for over 25 years, and he definitely has an interest in the community. His children have played in city parks, and he did not want it to seem like he was trying to deprive the neighborhood of a park. He stated he could see several problems with the latest proposal of 2.5 acres for a city park. He stated he is obligated by city ordinance to donate .938 acres of land. He had a little problem with that requirement, too. He stated there is about an acre of land that is in the watershed area by the creek. He was not so sure that it was his obligation to donate 10% of that land, too, because it is undevelopable land. He believed the .938 acres included that portion of land down in the low land. The area he has designated for park area is 10% of the whole area including the low land. Mr. Brickner stated the 2.5 acres of park land proposed by the City would be completely surrounded by houses. Where would people coming to the park in cars park, other than in front of the new houses? Secondly, the 30 ft. walkway to the park presented somewhat of a problem. The only access to the park was next to one of his new proposed houses, so there would be no way to come off the street, other than alongside some new houses. When the park was planned in the southwestern corner, he had planned six lots around a nice cul-de-sac. One lot would be adjacent to the park. Now, all of a sudden, the City wants nine lots adjacent to the park. fie would have eight lots on Arthur St. versus four lots on Arthur St. He thought everyone at the meeting would agree with him that lots on a cul-de-sac were more desirable and more saleable than lots on Arthur St. From his standpoint, these were the problems he saw with the 2.5 acres of choice land going for a park. Mr. Brickner stated there are some future developments to the west. He stated he and Staff discussed a lot of different layouts including the low lots. He had proposed one layout that he thought was very nice. It was 1 i PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, FEBRUARY 29, 1984 PAGE 4 taking .938 acres from his property in the southwestern corner, abutting the Gena-Rae Addition; then as the Gena-Rae Addition property developed, it could become part of the park system and, as the need arose, it could grow into the 2.5 acres. He would develop the .938 acres and whoever developed the vacant property would do their part. He stated he thought It was a shame to give up choice buildable lots when the park equipment could be moved. Mr. Brickner stated that when he purchased the property, he had intended to have a nice development. He thought that with the park system as proposed by the City, it would not be the development he had originally anticipated. Another factor was that by putting the park in the middle of the development, there are no street assessments against the City of Fridley Park Department, because it has no road frontage whatsoever. He stated he has not seen any other parks in the City of Fridley that were completely surrounded by houses with no street frontage. Mr. Goodspeed asked what kind of use would go on in the city park,and what kind of use was there right now on the school property. Mr. Flora stated that currently, there is, a tennis court, a basketball court, a hockey rink, and a baseball field. The',city park would essentially uti- lize the tennis court, the basketball court, hockey would continue, there would be a tot lot, a passive play area, and a neighborhood ball park. So, the usage would be essentially the same as it was right now. Mr. Goodspeed asked what could be done about the car situation. Mr. Flora stated that when they laid this development out, there was a possibility of of putting a drive on the southern end of the park off Arthur Street, with a parking area. Mr. Flora Stated that, again , from the three parcels of undeveloped land, about two acres of park land would be required. The Park Department Director feel that three acres is a good-sized park, so the City would be required to acquire some land above and beyond the 10% requirement to satisfy the three acre need. Looking long range at . 938 acres on the Rice Creek property, and small parcels in the other undeveloped properties , it was not going to provide the facilities they feel they need to service the neighborhood. If there is going to be a park, the staff feels there should be a total park they can plan for and that will provide the facilities they feel are appropriate for the neighborhood. Mr. Schneider stated he would like to make two clarifications: (1 ) He stated Mr. Brickner is only required to give the City. .938 acres for park land. He stated the City is not talking about just taking more land. There would be negotiations with Mr. Brickner and Mr. Bricker would be compensated for any additional land. (2) The proposed park would do more than just service this development and the future development of the other undeveloped areas. It also has to service all of Arthur St. , Anoka St. , and Fridley St. 6C PLANNI14G COMMISSION MEETING, FEBRUARY 29, 1984 PAGE 4 taking .938 acres from his property in the southwestern corner, abutting the Gena-Rae Addition; then as the Gena-Rae Addition property developed, it could become part of the park system and, as the need arose, it could grow into the 2.5 acres.

Looking long range at . 938 acres on the Rice Creek property, and small parcels in the other undeveloped properties , it was not going to provide the facilities they feel they need to service the neighborhood. If there is going to be a park, the staff feels there should be a total park they can plan for and that will provide the facilities they feel are appropriate for the neighborhood. Mr. Schneider stated he would like to make two clarifications : (1 ) He stated Mr. Brickner is only required to give the City. .938 acres for park land. He stated the City is not talking about just taking more land. There would be negotiations with Mr. Brickner and Mr. Bricker would be compensated for any additional land. (2) The proposed park would do more than just service this development and the future development of the other undeveloped areas. It also has to service all of Arthur St. , Anoka St. , and Fridley St. 6D PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, FEBRUARY 29, 1984 PAGE 5 Mr. Saba asked why some area from the Gena-Rae Addition couldn't be developed into some park property with some kind of compromise between Mr. Brickner and the City Park Dept. Mr. Flora stated that was possible, but right now the property in the Gena-Rae Addition is not available. There is a current plat in the Gena- Rae Addition for a cul-de-sac off Mississippi St. with the intention of a number of lots off the cul-de-sac. The other vacant property is currently just open lots. Ms. Schnabel asked if there were any comments from people in the audience. Mr. Ken Moxness , 1604 - 66th Ave. N.E. , stated he would suggest the Planning Commission not take any action on this plat at this meeting. There was no rush that it be acted on at this meeting. He stated this is the first school property to be sold in the demolished state and not to be used as ;a school or a public building. This is the first school land where the play- ground equipment is not going to be available to the children. He stated there are probably around 300-400 children within walking distance of this playground. The children are used to having access to this playground and its equipment. The children have been able to go over and look down on the Creek. It is an admirable public access to the Rice Creek area. He stated access to the creek area here is not only for the children, but for all the residents of Fridley. He would like to see the park on the edge of the precipice overlooking Rice Creek. He stated the children are losing their school and now there is a chance they will be losing their playground. He felt the children should gain by having the nice part of the property. Mr. Curtis Loschy, 1399 - 66th Ave. N.E. , stated his lot was adjacent to the school property so he was familiar with the playground usage. The pro- posed plan by the City would not include the usable portion of the present tennis court, so the tennis court would still have to be moved. The tennis court is only about three years old. Regarding Rice Creek, he was the chairperson for the Fridley portion of the bikeway/walkway trail for Anoka County. He stated he has walked the Creek extensively, and there was no possibility of access to the creek bed from the school property. There was a cliff with a sharp drop-off, so without a major construction effort, that area would not be usable for anything. Mr. Loschy stated he has looked at Mr. Brickner's layout at the hearings with the School Board. As a neighbor, he found the use of the land very pleasing. It would be going back on the tax roles. As far as the present park, they would certainly like to see a larger park. This area not only services everyone east of Old Central , but it also services a large area that is west of Old Central . There is a considerable amount of foot traffic that comes down 66th Ave. and utilizes this area, not only for tennis, but also for the playground equipment. The neighborhood would like to see more park access. So, he would really like to see the City look into the possi- bility of acquiring some of the open land in the Gena-Rae Addition. PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, FEBRUARY �9 1984 PAGE 6 Mr. Richard Johnson, 6536 Arthur St. N.E. , stated that if the park was put on the back lots that are about 5 ft. lower than the school property, would the City fill that up and leave the lot to the east low so all the water would run down onto his property? Also, if there was going to be a parking lot by the park, that parking lot would be by his bedroom. He stated traffic is very heavy now, especially in the summer with the use of the ballfield. He stated the park should be moved out onto Arthur St. Mr. Flora stated that right now there are no plans to do anything with the drainage. He stated that, regarding the parking lot, there is the possi- bility of providing some access to the proposed park with some parking, but they do not know where it would be at this time. Mr. Roland Zacharias, 1837 - 66th Ave. N.E. , stated that the City should do some work in trying to see if some more land could be obtained from the Gena-Rae Addition. Mr. Brickner stated he could not understand why, if everyone on the staff, the neighbors, and Mr. Schneider have known that three acres were needed for a park, that wasn't in the proposal when he bought the land. The City of Fridley had his preliminary proposal for two months before he bought the land. Everything was fine then. It was not until he bought the property that he found the City wanted 22-3 acres and it all has to come out of one area. He stated obtaining some land in the Gena-Rae Addition where there is no development would solve the problems for everyone involved. He wanted to emphasize that using prime building lots for park land was not in the best interest of anyone. As a taxpayer, he would like to see the best use of the land and the most revenue coming back to the City through taxes. Mr. Herb Bacon, 159 Logan Parkway, stated parks seem to go through cycles. For example, they have Logan Park, and it is hardly being used now. He stated he personally felt they should concentrate on what they have got, take whatever they can get, and put the money toward those parks. Mr. Schneider stated he has been in this neighborhood a number of times, even prior to being on the City .Council . One of '�the things he has always heard before he was elected Councilman was the inadequacy of the parks in this area. He did work toward putting the tennis court there 3-4 years ago. At that time, he felt it was worth it. He stated he felt there was a need for an adequate park--something that will service Anoka St. , Fridley St. , Arthur St. , Mr. Brickner's proposed development, the undeveloped areas, the Rice Creek townhouses and some other areas. Somewhere they need some adequate space. Dr. Boudreau, the Parks & Recreation Director, estimated that, according to national standards, about three acres would be needed to service the entire area. Fridley tends to not meet national standards with most of its parks. Mr. Schneider stated that, on the other side of it, Mr. Brickner is a fantastic developer for the area, and they were very lucky that he chose to put through a proposal . He thought most people in the neighborhood would G E, PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, FEBRUARY 29, 1984 PAGE 6 Mr. Richard Johnson, 6536 Arthur St. N.E. , stated that if the park was put on the back lots that are about 5 ft. lower than the school property, would the City fill that up and leave the lot to the east low so all the water would run down onto his property?

He thought most people in the neighborhood would 6F PLANNI14G COMMISSION MEETING, FEBRUARY 29, 1984 PAGE 7 agree that it is the kind of development the City wants. The point made about acquiring some land in the Gena-Rae Addition or somewhere else in the immediate area was an excellent idea. However, it was his understanding that there was not a willing seller. Whatever they do, it is imperative they time it so they do not lose this whole property and then at some time in the future try to develop a park. They have to put something together with Mr. Brickner's development. He stated he would urge the Planning Commission to take these points into consideration. Mr. Richard Johnson, 6536 Arthur St. N.E. , stated the only park they have on the south side of Rice Creek is the school property. Harris Park has a picnic table and that is no park. He stated Mr. Brickner is a good builder and a fine gentleman, but let them keep their park so their children have a place to play. Mr. Robert Thayer, 6051 - 6th St. N.E. , stated he would like to see a usable park area, but he thought the proposal made by the City had some real problems. If they put in a parking lot to provide space for people driving to the park, that would be a very poor use of land. It would make more sense to situate the park so it faces onto a street so people can park on the street. Another problem with the City's proposal is it is very difficult to walk to the park without going through one or two of the little corridors they have provided. Instead, people will be walking through someone's yard. He thought the access to the park was very poor and the park was probably not usable to the neighbor- hood, but only to the homes that will face onto the park. Mr. Thayer stated the idea of putting the park on the creek was ridiculous as that area is just too dangerous. He believed the school had put up a fence because of the danger to the children. He stated the value of the development certainly depended upon how attractive it is to possible home buyers. He thought Mr. Brickner's proposal was much more attractive to home buyers; therefore the value of the land will be higher, and the taxes Y � 9 to the City will be higher. This is something the Commission should also consider. MOTION BY MS. GABEL, SECONDED BY MR. OQUIST, TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING ON PS ##84-01 BY THOMAS BRICKNER. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRP70MAN SCHNABEL DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED AT 8:56 P.M. Mr. Oquist stated there is a definite need to maintain a park for the neighborhood in this area. If the park is to be maintained in this area, it should be maintained as a neighborhood park. He did not think it was fair that one builder had to provide all the acreage for the ark when there P 9 P are adjacent properties that will be developed in the future. Access to the park was an excellent point, because people will be cutting through people's yards to get to the park. He did not think the proposal by the City was a very viable proposal . He thought there were some better plans that would make better use of the land and still get a sizable park. He stated it has been pointed out that the tennis court would have to be moved I PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, FEBRUARY 29 1984 PAGE 8 anyway so that was not a factor in the consideration of where the park should be. Mr. Saba stated he would like to see the City make a good attempt at obtaining some property from the Gena-Rae Addition for park land. He agreed that the total park land should not be the; burden on one developer. He also agreed that the City did not need another, .9 acre park. They needed a nice planned park. There needed to be some kind of compromise, and maybe the whole plat should be looked at in a different way with the other vacant properties in mind. Ms. Gabel stated she has had a lot of opportunites to be in this neighbor- hood and she has heard a lot of complaints about the fact that there is no city pari:. She stated this may be the City's only opportunity to do it right. If they do not get what they need for the entire neighborhood at this time, they may indeed wind up with a little piece here, a little piece there, etc. , and that obviously is not what they want for this neighborhood. She thought they should work on trying to get something better than what the City has proposed and do it right so they do not have to look back on this as another mistake like some of the other parks in the City that do not service the needs of a neighborhood. Mr. Kondrick stated he agreed with everything that has been said. He stated Mr. Brickner is a fine developer. fie stated that, in addition to the 24 homes in Mr. Brickner's proposal , there are many other homes that will suffer if they make too quick a decision on this. The park use is heavy now and will get heavier as more families move into the area. He also did not like to see one developer have to take the responsibility for all the park space. He felt that something could be worked out that would be better than the proposal made by the City. Mr. Goodspeed stated he was also in favor of going back to the drawing board and trying to come up with some other alternatives. Ms. Schnabel stated each of the Planning Commission members had made a point she could concur with. As a Planning Commission member, she liked to look at things in terms of vacant land and not look at things that may influence their thinking. She stated it is not fair to expect the whole park land for this whole area to primarily come out of one plot. She felt there should be an effort made on behalf of the City to acquire some additional property so that adequate park land can be developed for the neighborhood before a final proposal is made for this particular piece of property. She felt the Planning Commission would be negligent of their duty to say they would take little pieces in different places. She stated that is not in the best interest of the City. The Planning Commission would like the City to work on this again and try to come up with a more viable proposal . Mr. Brickner stated the timeframe was critical , because he wanted the plat finalized so he could build during this construction season. 6G PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, FEBRUARY 29, 1984 PAGE 8 anyway so that was not a factor in the consideration of where the park should be.

The City's plan did not meet those needs and would not be acceptable. Mr. Flora stated Staff has looked at a number of alternatives, but they are willing to work more with Mr. Brickner on other alternatives and bring something back to the next Planning Commission meeting. Their primary concern is that they come up with a plan that will allow for the ultimate development of all the properties. As Mr. Schneider had said, their goal is to provide a park now and not for a park that will develop in stages. Mr. Goodspeed stated there needed to be at least 2.5 acres for a park, and they needed that acreage now. He did not see where it was more fair to take park land from two developers or all of it from one developer. It was not fair either way. They just should -do whatever needs to be done to get a decent park. MOTION BY MR. SABA, SECONDED BY MS.

Mr. Flora ted this was a vacation request by Mr. Larson in order to provide about 9,000 sq. ft. parcel of property. He stated there are currently two cu a-sacs in the area--one on Anoka Street and one on Fridley Street. Th roperty would abut the existing cul-de-sac on Fridley St. and the va ion of the 30 ft. platted 67th Ave. Mr. Flora stated Staff did no 'fy all the utilities to see if there were any problems with the vacation o he street, and they received two responses. NSP has an overhead lin unning from the rear of the property line across Lot 1 to a street light at e north side of the cul-de-sac on Fridley St. NSP is asking for a 5 ft. ut ty easement along the south and easterly property lines of Lot 1 , Block 2, will then mpve their line to that easement. Mr. Flora stated that on Anoka St. and Fridley St. , t ity has two water lines which essentially deadend at the cul-de-sacs. If t vacation is approved, Staff would like to maintain a 10 ft. easement alo the southerly and westerly boundaries so the City has the option of putting i water line from Fridley St. over to Anoka St. to provide a future loop to thstem. �ti PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, FEBRUARY 29, 1984 PAGE 10 Mr. Flora stated that in reviewing Mr. Larson's proposal as submitted, he 35 ft. setback off the cul-de-sac would require either the building be moved back or some variance for the corner of the garage.

Mr. Flora stated that at the last meeting, they were addressing the plat which essentially included the Rice Creek School property. The plat sub- mitted by Mr. Brickner identified 29 lots, 5 of which were dedicated as a park in accordance with the city platting ordinance for this particular development. As was discussed at that meeting, Staff was concerned about the park size of .9 acres in that it seemed inadequate as the only park to service the area between Old Central and Stinson Blvd. and Rice Creek and Mississippi St. A number of alternatives had been discussed with Mr. Brickner. Mr. Flora stated the Planning Commission had suggested the City look at obtaining some other properties, specifically the property to the west of Rice Creek School , as a potential park site. On March 12, the City Council passed a resolution authorizing the City Administration to acquire a portion of the Gena-Rae Addition for public purposes. Based on that direction, Staff has looked at both the Rice Creek School property, the Gena-Rae Addition, the PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MARCH 14 1984 PAGE 5 3. VACATION REQUEST: SAV #84-02, BY DISPLAY ARTS, INC. : Vacate the 12' a ey sout of Lot , lock 6, naway, an t e alance of Gumwood Street, south of the alley. Mr. Flora stated this is a request to vacate the existing alley and a little portion of Gumwood St. remaining north of 77th. The City has been working with the three property owners involved in order to resolve the construction of the alley and the street vacation. He stated that included in the aqenda was a letter of intent to enter into an agreement between Action Pattern Co. and Display Arts , Inc. If the vacation is approved, it is the intention of Display Arts, Inc. , to blacktop one-half of Gumwood St. adjoining the Rycoline Property at 51 N.E. 77th Way,which is being purchased by Display Arts,and to blacktop the alley in conjunction with Action Pattern Co. Mr. Flora stated they have contacted the utility companies about this vaca- tion request. Northwestern Bell requires an easement down the alley. Minnegasco requires an easement over the westerly one-half of all that part of Gumwood St. proposed to be vacated. NSP would like to retain some access on Gumwood St. in order to maintain their facilities. Mr. Flora stated Staff is requesting the Planning Commission consider the following seven stipulations with this vacation request: 1 . Filing of agreement between Display Arts , Inc. , and Action Pattern Co. with the County. 2. Execution of a new lot description with the City Assessors for parcels now being established. 3. 10 ft. utility easement down the alley for Northwestern Bell 4. 10 ft. utility easement between Gumwood and 77th for Minnegasco line 5. Access agreement for NSP to service their lines 6. Landscaping required for property along 77th Ave. 7. Payment of outstanding assessments for parcel on the corner of 77th and Beech St. The petitioners, Mr. Milt Sigel and Mr. James Randers, of Display Arts, Inc. , were in the audience. Mr. Sigel stated it was their intent to eventually purchase a little more Property from Park Construction and add onto the west side of the building. They were hoping that until that time, they could leave the property as it is now as far as landscaping. They would hate to do some landscaping now and then later have to change it. Mr. Flora suggested Mr. Sigel and Mr. Randers come in and discuss the land- scaping with Staff. PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MARCH 14 1984 PAGE 7 property directly to the north and also the vacant property to the west of Gena-Rae, and found they can provide a road system which will allow Mr. Brickner to construct the 29 lots as originally proposed, allow con- struction of a 2.2 acre park, allow the development by Mr. Blomberg of an additional nine lots to the west, and open up the large lots to the north for the future splitting into five lots. This would essentially provide access from the various areas being served to the park, would provide street parking, and would provide those items recommended by the Parks & Recreation Department (tennis court, softball field, tot lot, passive play area, etc. ). Mr. Flora stated the City feels this new proposal not only satisfies the concern expressed by the Planning Commission, but also the concerns addressed by the City Council in preliminarily reviewing this plat with Mr. Brickner. Mr. Flora stated the City will be attempting to purchase the property in the Gena-Rae Addition for a park. They have made some contact with the owners, and they seem favorable to the idea of a park being constructed on the property. Mr. Brickner stated this proposal provided for a fine project, a nice park area, street parking, and it looked like it was certainly in the best interest of the City and all the people involved. Ms. Schnabel stated it was their understanding then that, instead of dedi- cating land,Mr. Brickner will be entering into a fee negotiation with the city for the park. Ms. Betty Ann Mech, 1315 - 66th Ave. N.E. , stated she was representing a lot of the neighbors in this surrounding neighborhood. She stated she had a petition she would like to present to the Planning Commission. She read the following petition dated March 13, 1984: "We the undersigned residents of the area near Rice Creek School urge you to establish a public greenway on the Rice Creek side of the property when it is developed. Traditionally, this has been public property, available to all the residents for hiking and viewing the Creek. (There is not a better view in Fridley. ) We believe to make this private property available to only a few people would seriously diminish the quality of life for the present residents and the new residents who will have even more pressure from expanded numbers. "Long ago the City of Minneapolis , despite heavy pressure, showed us the way by saving the shores of its lakes for the public. We will applaud your foresite if you do the same." Ms. Mech also showed four slides of the view of the creek from this side. PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, MARCH 14, 1984 PAGE 8 Ms. Mech stated there is already an existing path at the top of the cliff, and they would like to have this available to the residents of Fridley as it has always been.

Ms. M. Larson, 1340 - 66th Ave. N.E. , stated she felt the City really needed to do something like this in this area. It was true that the people in their area have not had a park, but they have not really felt the void because there has always been a lot of open space they have used and enjoyed. They now see this slipping away, and they feel this is Something the City should think about and attempt to do for the whole community. Mr. Brickner stated that with the houses he would be constructing along the bluff line, after the setback requirement, the houses would be very close to the bluff. Probably most of the houses would have decks that would overhang the bluff. He was not sure where the path was now, but if it comes on top of the ridge, he would suspect the path would be right by the houses. From his point of view, it would be very difficult to sell a lot with a public path in its backyard. Mr. Brickner stated that if he were to move the road to the south, it would require his taking out a number of lots on the other side. Ms. Schnabel stated she agreed with Mr. Brickner. There were about four lots that after the 35 ft. setback would be sitting right about where the path is now. She did not see how Mr. Brickner could agree to that walkway if it is going to be by people's houses. Mr. Oquist stated that if the City was to provide a path or walkway along the cliff, there were potential problems with liability to the City if someone should fall and get hurt. Ms. Mech stated it was just a shame that there will be only four or five people who will be able to enjoy that beautiful view. Mr. Curt Loschy, 1399 - 66th Ave. N.E. , stated he owns the lot adjacent to the school on the west side. He stated the path runs behind the school fence, generally from Arthur St. , across two lots and part of a third lot, then down to the old dam. Since the pathway was put in by the County on the north side of the Creek, the amount of foot traffic on this side has decreased significantly. The path itself has almost grown over. He felt there was not enough foot traffic now to keep the path open. i r PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, MARCH 14, 1984 PAGE 9 Mr. Dick Podvin stated he was representing the principles on the Gena- Rae Addition. They have obviously been negotiating with the City on the sale of this property and, at this point, an appraisal is being made on the value of the land. He stated the only exception he could see to the park plan at this time was the proposed walkway to the park from Mississippi St. They would not agree to that because of the foot traffic that would be between houses. He stated the dedicated road was forced on them in order for them to get the building permit. The reason they have resisted selling this property is because they did not want to develop the property with that road being forced on them. They feel the property being developed as a park was a very favorable option to them with the exception of the road and assuming they get fair market value for the land. Ms. Mary Loschy, 1399 - 66th Ave. N.E. , stated she thought this was a very good plan, it was a good compromise, and would be very good for the neighbor- hood. She had one request and that was that it was going to be a little difficult for people from 66th Ave.to get to the park. She would like to see the City consider some foot traffic access from 66th, if that was possible. Mr. Flora stated that was something the City could probably work toward in the future. Mr. Brickner stated he had no strong feelings one way or the other. If it was an easement, it should probably be fenced. Ms. Schnabel stated it was a very good point and she would like to see the City explore the possibility of some easement from 66th Ave. to the new park area. Mr. Robert Thayer, 6051 - 6th St. N.E. , stated he was at the Planning Commission meeting two weeks ago and criticized the City's proposal at that time. He would like to say that this proposal made a lot more sense. It answered the concern about developing adequate park area, and he thought it allowed for an organized sensible development for all three parcels of property. MOTION BY MR. SABA, SECONDED BY MS. SCHREINER, TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRWOMAN SCHNABEL DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED AT 9:22 P.M. Mr. Oquist stated he felt this total plan was more in line with what he was concerned about at the last meeting. What he thought they needed to do was to plan the whole area as long as there were three parcels of property that were available. It seemed to him this was a reasonable development for this whole area. Ms. Schnabel stated she was very pleased with this plan. It was worth delaying this for two weeks. From the standpoint of the City, providing a park in the Gena-Rae Addition was the best solution they could come up with. PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, MARCH 14, 1984 PAGE 10 MOTION BY MR. SABA, SECONDED BY MS. SCHREINER, TO RECOMMEND TO CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL OF PRELIMINARY PLAT P.S. #84-01, CREEKRIDGE, BY THOMAS BRICKNER, BEING A REPLAT OF LOTS 2, 3, AND 5, AUDITOR'S SUBDIVISION NO. 10, GENERALLY LOCATED AT 66TH AND ARTHUR STREETS N.E. , WITH THE CONSIDERATION THAT THE CITY DEVELOP SOME KIND OF PATHWAY FROM 66TH AVE.

LOT SPLIT REQUEST: L.S. #84-01 , BY HERBERT KNUTSON: Split Lots 1 , 2, 3, oT ck—T�ri'd eT y Park,into two building sites, by -splitting off the westerly 27 feet of Lot 2, and combining it with Lot 3, and the description of Lot 1 will add that part of Lot 2 lying east of the westerly 27 feet, all in Block 15, Fridley Park, the same being 10 and 20 64th Way N.E. Mr. Flora stated this property was just south of 64th Ave. and west of Ashton Ave. There are three lots, Lots 1 , 2, and 3, which are being proposed to be split into two lots, one 67 ft. wide and one 70.26 ft. wide. This particular plat was platted before 1955 and, as such, the code requires a minimum of 50 ft. The code also states that if it was an early plat, the lot width and the lot area may not be satisfied but all other setback criteria must be satisfied. Mr. Flora stated that in talking with the developer, it was first proposed to split the property in half and make each lot about 72 ft. in width. Because the corner lot requires a 172 ft. sideyerd setback, they thought it would he better to make the first lot a little wider and the second lot a little smaller and still satisfy the setback criteria. Mr. Flora stated Staff would recommend three stipulations if this lot split is approved: 1 . There be a park fee of $750 2. That no building permit be issued until the lot split is recorded with the County. 3. The outstanding assessments be paid. Mr.John Dunphy, 155 Stonybrook Way, stated he was representing Mr. Knutson who could not be at the meeting. He stated Mr. Knutson plans to put single family dwellings on both lots. MOTION BY MR.

PUBLIC HEARING: PRELIMINARY PLAT P.S. #84-02 HIDDEN WOODS, BY THOMAS E. BLOMBERG: Being a replat of the Southerly 33 feet of Lot 6, along wit Lot , except the South 5 feet of the West 150 feet and except the East 100 feet of the West 250 feet; along with all of Lot 13, all in Revised Auditor's Subdivision No. 10, generally located in the 6500 Block of Central Avenue. MOTION BY MR. SVANDA, SECONDED BY MR. MINTON, TO OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING ON P.S. #84-02 BY THOMAS E. BLOMBERG. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRWOMAN SCHNABEL DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING OPEN AT 7:39 P.M. Mr. Robinson stated the property was located north of Mississippi St. and east of Central Ave. and involved the replatting of 3.1 acres of land into 9 lots. Mr. Robinson stated that all nine lots are up to code except for one lot, Lot 6, which is undersized and has some setback variances because of an existing house on Lot 5 which is 5 ft. from the proposed notherly property line. Lot 6 is 8,890 sq. ft. and the front yard setback is proposed to be even with the existing house, both would then be setback 60' . He stated Staff has 1 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, MARCH 28, 1984 PAGE 2 discussed this in-house and with Mr. Blomberg and they felt this was the solution for this particular lot because ofthe existing house on Lot 5. Mr. Robinson stated Staff would recommend the following stipulations if the plat is approved: 1 . Signed parks fee agreement of $13,500 for the 9 lots 2. Apiaroval of plat with variances on Lots 5 and 6 (a) Lot 6 to be 8,890 square feet (b) Front yard will to be approximately 60 ft. at proposed setback (c) Existing house on Lot 5 to be 5 ft. from new lot line to the north. 3. If garage is located on south side of Lot 6, a fire wall should be provided. 4. Agree to pay all applicable assessments; street, water, storm sewer, sanitary sewer. 5. Agree to record plat at County prior to issuance of building permits. 6. Remove the existing garage on Lot 6. Mr. Robinson stated that Mr. Blomberg basically agreed with these stipulations except for the park fee. Mr. Blomberg stated his question on the park fee was the fact that he has an existing structure that he is subdividing 8 lots away from. Is that treated like a subdivision from an existing dwelling? He realized he had to pay a park fee on 8 lots , but should he have to pay it for 9, when there is an existing dwelling on one lot? It is not a bare piece of land. Mr. Robinson stated it was his understanding that this was a 9-lot plat, and Mr. Blomberg was being charged a park fee for all 9 lots. Ms. Schnabel stated she was not sure about this. In a residential lot split, the park fee is $750 per lot. By taking one piece of land and splitting it in half, does a person pay $750 for both lots for a total of $1 ,500 or was it $750 for the lot split? Mr. Blomberg stated this was a cross between a couple of different types of property. Should they treat the house as a lot that he is subdividinq? He did not think they should treat the house as a 9th lot. Mr. Oquist stated this was an interesting point, and it was something that should be defined by Staff. Ms. Gabel stated she felt the City has a problem with park fees. She thought the City Council had a firmly established policy that the City Council works with at their level . It was her understanding that thepark fee was on each lot, whether or not there was a dwelling on it, but she could be wrong. Mr. Blomberg stated he has never seen a single lot split in the City where the City charged $750 for the lot he already had and another $750 for the lot he was creating. It was just $750 for the lot split. PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, MARCH 28, 1984 PAGE 3 P Ms. Gabel stated she understood what Mr. Blomberg was saying, and the Planning Commission should ask for a guideline so they know how to answer this question when it comes up again in the future. Ms. Schnabel stated the Planning Commission obviously was not in a position to answer Mr. Blomberg's question at this meeting. She stated that, as had been suggested, the Planning Commission would like to get someone from Staff to get a clarification on the park fee before this plat goes to the City Council . Mr. Oquist stated the clarification should also be brought back to the Planning Commission to clear up their understanding. Ms. Schnabel asked if there were any comments from people in the audience. Mr. Bob Burdick, 1316 - 66th Ave. N.E. , stated he was concerned with the size of Lot 6. It was not in character in the Fridley suburban area to put a house on that small a lot. Ms. Schnabel stated the Zoning Code allows for a minimum lot size of 9,000 sq. ft. What Mr. Blomberg is proposing is a lot of 8,890 sq. ft. which is 110 sq. ft. short of the Zoning Code which is not very much. There are many lots in Fridley that are much smaller than that. This will require a variance on the lot size which will be granted with the plat. Mr. Blomberg will have to meet the setback requirements. If he cannot meet those setback requirements , he will have to go through the appeals process for a variance. Ms. Gabel stated she was the chairperson of the Appeals Commission. She stated one of the things that is necessary to grant a variance was a hardship. Mr. Blomberg does have a hardship here in that the house on Lot 5 is an existing house. The variance wasn't very large. Even if he were to go through the appeals process, it was very likely the variance would be granted because it is not a very big variance and he does have a shardship. MOTION BY MR. SABA, SECONDED BY MS. GABEL, TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEAPING ON PS #i84-02 BY THOMAS BLOMBERG. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIPJ70MAN SCHNABEL DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED AT 8:15 P.M. Ms. Gabel stated she thought this plat was certainly consistent with what they are looking at doing for this whole area. She was not real happy with the size of the one lot, but she did not know of any alternatives. Mr. Blomberg said he could build a house on that lot; and, having seen some of his work, she believed he would put a house on that lot that was appropriate. She would be in favor of recommending approval of the plat. PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, MARCH 28, 1984 PAGE 4 MOTION BY MS. GABEL, SECONDED BY MR.

OQUIST, SECONDED BY MR. MINTON, TO RECEIVE THE MARCH 13, 1984, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION MINUTES. Ms. Schnabel stated there was an article in the paper about Coon Rapids ' new Budget Review Commission. It is a citizen review of the city budget. The commission looks at the budget from a 1-yr, standpoint and a 5-yr. standpoint, in that they see from what areas the money comes into the city and how that money is being spent. They review the process to see if they can make any recommendations regarding either increasing or decreasing the budget or the size of a particular department, or any alternatives they can suggest. She stated this has apparently been very helpful to the Coon Rapids City Council . The Council members appreciate the time that is taken to review the budget from a citizen standpoint and from a non-involved standpoint. Ms. Schnabel suggested that the Community Development Commission might want to look at this in terms of either looking at it themselves or setting up a project committee and then discussing it with the City Council . Mr. Oquist asked Staff to include this article with the Community Development Commission's April agenda.

PUBLIC HEARIM ON FINAL PIAT, _ MOTION by Councilman Schneider to waive the reading of the public hearing notice and open the public hearing. Seconded by Councilman Barnette. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously and the public hearing opened at 7:43 p.m. Mr. Flora, Public Works Director, stated this proposal is for a residential plat on the property bounded by Arthur Street and south of Rice Creek and formerly the Rice Creek School property. Mr. Flora stated the plat consists of 29 lots, five of which were set aside for park area. He stated, however, during the Planning Commission hearing on this plat, there was considerable discussion regarding a park in this neighborhood. Mr. Flora stated the school currently provides a recreational facility for persons in this area and these facilities will no longer be available with development of this plat. He stated the residents felt the lots proposed for a park area were inadequate to maintain the level of recreational services for this area so it was requested the City look at adjacent property in the Gena-Rae Addition for additional park space. Mr. Flora stated, during this negotiation period for additional property, Mr. Blomberg came in to develop an adjacent area to the west as residential lots. He presented a sketch showing the location of Mr. Brickner's lots and the location of the lots proposed by Mr. Blomberg. Mr. Flora stated the City is attempting to purchase property in the Gena- Rae Addition for a park which would provide a 2. 2 acre park for neighborhood residents. Mr. Flora stated, based on this concept, the l` Planning Commission recommended approval of the plat at their March 14, 1984 meeting. Mr. Flora stated Mr. Brickner could then construct residences on the 29 lots, as originally proposed. He further stated, along with Mr. Brickner's plat, a road system can be provided which will allow construction of the park, the development of Mr. Blomberg's nine lots to the west, and open up the large lots to the north for future lot splitting. He stated this also would provide access from the various areas being served to the park. Councilman Schneider questioned the intentions in regard to the park property. He stated his concern is the situation which arises by approval of this plat; that is, the recreational facilities provided on the Rice Creek School property will vanish. Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated the Council authorized staff to initiate negotiations for acquisition of park land. He stated he anticipates the City would be able to acquire the property this year and, with adequate funding provided, the park would be at least partially completed in 1985. He stated the tennis courts and ball fields would, realistically, be available in 1985, providing the City has control over the land. THE MIMMS OF THE REGULAR MEETING OF THE FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL OF APRIL 2, 1984 The Regular Meeting of the Fridley City Council was called to order at 7:38 p.m. by Mayor Nee. PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE: Mayor Nee led the Council and the audience in the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag. ROLL CALL MEMBERS PRESENT: Mayor Nee, Councilman Barnette, Councilman Schneider Councilman Hamernik and Councilman Fitzpatrick MEMBERS ABSENT: None PRESENTATIONS: CERTIFICATE OF CONFORMANCE IN FINANCIAL REPORTING - CITY OF FRIDLEY FINANCIAL REPORTING ACHIEVEMETI' AWARD - RICHARD D. PRIBYL, FINANCE OFFICER Mayor Nee stated both the City and the Finance Officer have received a significant award and asked the City Manager, Mr. Qureshi, to explain these awards. Mr. Qureshi stated the City has received an award for Comprehensive Annual Financial Reporting. He stated this award is given by the National Municipal Finance Officer's Association of the United States and Canada for excellence in financial reporting. Mr. Qureshi stated Fridley is one of the very few communities in the nation who has been awarded this certificate and it points out the City is trying to keep their financial reporting to one of the highest standards and was able to maintain this standard three years in a row. Mr. Qureshi stated a financial achievement award was given by this same organization to the Finance Officer, Richard Pribyl. Mayor Nee and the Council members extend their congratulations to Mr. Pribyl, the finance staff, and administration for these accomplishments. ADOPTION OF AGENDA: MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to adopt the agenda as presented. Seconded by Councilman Schneider. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously. OPEN FORUM, VISITORS: There was no response from the audience under this item of business. 0241NC IL MEETING OF APRIL 2, 1984 PAGE 3 r Councilman Schneider stated he would like to attach a timetable as to when the park facilities would be available to residents in the area. Mr. Qureshi stated the City is presently negotiating with the owner for acquisition of the property; however, the City does have the right of eminent domain, but would prefer working with the owner and this may take a little longer period of time. Councilman Schneider stated he didn't want to get into a situation where the school is torn down and the recreational facilities are gone and the land for park purposes isn't under the City's control so there would be several years of waiting for these recreational facilities to be completed. Mr. Qureshi stated he felt the most they would be looking at is next year and didn' t feel it would go beyond that date before the recreational facilities are available. Mr. Joe Menth, 1388 66th Avenue, stated the fences around the tennis courts have been taken down. He stated he also had a concern regarding the assessments.

OOUNCIL MEETING OF APRIL 16, 1984 NEW BUSINESS: 6. T - E (PUBLIC HEARING 4/2/84) : Mr. Flora, Public Works Director, stated Mr. Brickner purchased the Rice Creek school property and is proposing a plat for development of the property. He stated the plat originally submitted to the Planning Commission consisted of a total of 29 lots with five in the lower south corner reserved for a park area. Mr. Flora stated, during the Planning Commission review of the plat, it was felt the five lots of 0.9 acres wouldn't provide sufficient space for recreational facilities in the area. He stated the Planning Commission recommended that the City try to obtain property adjacent to the Rice Creek School in order to provide a park around two acres in size. Mr. Flora stated the Council passed a resolution authorizing the City to negotiate for the purchase of property in the Gena-Rae Addition for park purposes and the City is now in the process of attempting to purchase this property. Mr. Flora stated in lieu of giving property for the park, Mr. Brickner would have to give an equal amount of money. He stated, normally, the City receives 10% of the property or an amount equal to the value of that property. Councilman Schneider asked the status of the acquisition of the property for the park. Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated the City is still negotiating with the owners and they are willing to sell the property to the City. He stated, however, they haven't reached a decision on a price which satisfies both parties. He thought perhaps the judicial system may have to be used in order to establish a price for the property and, unless Council has any questions or objections, they would proceed with this process. Mr. Brickner stated he is confused as to haw the plat can be approved when they haven't worked out the problems regarding the costs of the improvement. Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated the Council would be approving the plat; however, if Mr. Brickner decides he doesn't want to proceed with the development, the Council's action is mute. He stated if Mr. Brickner wishes to proceed, but wishes to make changes in the plat, he would have to come back to the Council. Mr. Brickner stated what was originally petitioned for was the plat with the cul-de-sac and not for the street to go through. He felt because the plat the Council was considering was not the one originally submitted, he would like the item tabled at this time. MOTION by Councilman Schneider to table the final plat, P.

Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously and the public hearing opened at 7:43 p.m. Mr. Flora, Public Works Director, stated this plat is located east of Old Central Avenue and north of Mississippi Street and identifies nine parcels. He stated the Planning Commission considered this plat and all lots meet the ordinance requirements with the exception of Lot 6 which is only 8,890 square feet instead of the 9,000 square feet required by the ordinance. riMr. Flora stated the Planning Commission recommended approval of the plat subject to the following stipulations: (1) a signed parks fee agreement of $13,500; (2) approval of plat with variances on Lot 5 and 6; (3) if garage s located on south side of Lot 6 , a fire wall should be provided; (4) developer agrees to pay all applicable assessments; (5) developer agrees to record plat at County prior to issuance of building pemits; (6) removal of the existing garage on Lot 6; and (7) park fee be clarified with respect to the existing house and lot. Mr. Blomberg, the developer, stated he has reviewed the drainage for this parcel with the City staff. He stated he would be ready to proceed assuming the drainage plan worked out is acceptable to the City. Mr. Blomberg stated the park fee is based on nine lots at $1,500 per lot. He felt he is only creating eight additional lots, as there now is an existing dwelling on the ninth lot for which he is paying taxes. Mr. Flora stated the platting ordinance requires ten percent of the land be dedicated for park purposes or an equivalent amount of cash. Mr. Blomberg stated he contends he is creating eight new buildable lots and didn't feel he should be paying a park fee for nine lots. Mr. Flora stated, as far as the drainage, they are working on a ponding system for the plat and didn't anticipate any problem. Mr. Qureshi, City Manager , stated if the Council wished to give consideration to Mr. Blomberg's request regarding the park fee, action could be taken when the plat is approved. Mr. Curt Barsness, 6581 Central Avenue, stated he lived just north of the lot which would require a variance and questioned the location of the power lines and who would provide the easement. Mr. Blomberg stated the power lines would be moved and he would be providing the easement for access by Northern States Power. Mr. Martin Johnson, 1381 Mississippi Street, asked about the plans for the park in the Gena Rae Addition. He stated it seems like a lot of plans were made for the road at about the same time the City was entering into L -2- oxXIL MEETIT2 OF MAY 1. 1984 ' negotations for the land for the park. Mr. Qureshi stated the City wishes to acquire the land in the Gena Rae Addition for park purposes, however, both Mr. Brickner and Mr. Blomberg could develop without a road through the park. He stated the City wants the park and road in order to provide recreational facilities for residents in the area. Mr. Ren Moxness, 1604 66th Avenue, questioned if any soil f rom the back of Bacon Electric and the garage on Old Central would be used in the park. He stated, if this is done, he felt it should be tested for contamination. Mayor Nee stated no soil from these businesses would be moved to the park.

MEETING OF MAY 7. 1984 a construction of another street, Creek Park Lane from Arthur to Old Central. Mr. Flora stated a 15 foot access easement is requested on the west boundary of the plat to allow neighborhood access to the park area. Mr. Brickner, the developer, stated he felt the access easement should be moved to the west between two lots that his son owns. Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated the easement proposed by Mr. Brickner would be more centrally located to the park. Mayor Nee asked Mr. Brickner if he felt it was feasible to proceed with the development after reviewing the figures on the cost of the improvements. Mr. Brickner stated he felt the bids received do make it more feasible than the original estimates given for these improvements. Mr. Joe Menth, 1388 66th Avenue, questioned where the power lines would be located for this plat. Mr. Flora stated Northern States Power would be providing underground service for the development, but overhead service would continue for the existing hones. Mr. Menth asked if existing power lines would be placed underground. Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated the residents would have the option to leave the lines as is or else to have them placed underground if they wish to pay the cost. Mr. Menth questioned where the power lines would be moved. Mr. Flora stated he felt they would probably stay, basically, where they are now located. Mr. Menth stated at the public hearing there was discussion about postponing the assessment until such time as each lot was split. Mr. Qureshi stated if it is the Council's desire to postpone the assessment until such time as a lot is split, they could so direct staff so the assessment roll is prepared accordingly. . Ken Moxness, 1604 66th Avenue, asked if it would be possible to obtain (aye, easement to the creek. Mr. Qureshi stated 66th Avenue goes to Arthur reet and Arthur Street has access to the creek. —� TION by Councilman Schneider to approve the preliminary final plat, PS 4-01 with the following stipulations: (1) Outlot A be dedicated for blic use; (2) a $1,500 park fee per lot for 29 lots be paid; and (3) an cess easement from 66th Avenue be provided to the future park in the Gena e Addition and the location of this easement is to be worked out with the ty staff. Seconded by Councilman Hamernik. Upon a voice vote, all voting Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously. r. Gottwaldt, 6429 Baker Avenue, asked when the issue of the park in the L -4- CCXRKTL MEETING OF MAY 7. 1984 Gena Rae Addition would be on the agenda. Councilman Schneider stated the point the City is at now regarding acquisition of the property in the Gena Rae Addition came about during discussions at the Planning Commission meeting. He stated he believed representatives of the owners of the property were present at the Planning Con7dssion meeting and indicated they would be willing to sell the property if it was used for public purposes and not for residential developnent. Mr. Qureshi stated the City has had a number of negotiations regarding acquisition of this property. He stated the City felt as the owners are willing to sell, the best method to establish the value of the property is through a non-bias third party and the owner's attorney was so advised. Mayor Nee told Mr. Gottwaldt he understood his mother didn't want to sell the property for housing, but wanted it developed for park purposes. Mr. Martin Johnson, 1381 Mississippi Street, stated the City never did negotiate or come back with a counter offer yet they are surveying and driving stakes into the property. He felt there has been no negotiation in good faith on the part of the City. He felt a lot was being taken for granted to proceed in this manner when the property is not owned by the City, and several asked why a park was needed on that property. Councilman Schneider stated Rice Creek School was the only recreational facility in this neighborhood and when the school disappears, he felt something has to replace these facilities to satisfy the recreational needs of the neighborhood residents. Councilman Schneider stated he felt it would be irresponsible to have housing on every lot and not be able to meet the recreational needs for the neighborhood now and in the future. He stated, as far as the developers, they would just as soon not see a park, but felt it is part of his responsiblity to provide such an area for the residents. Mr. Martin Johnson stated he only hopes his father and the Gottwaldt's get a decent price for this land as they have contributed to the community for many years. 4-C-OIqSIDERATION OF FINAL PLAT, - Y THOMAS RTf�MBERG (PUBLIC HEARING HELD MAY 7 1984) MOTION by Councilman Schneider to approve the preliminary final plat, PS #84-02, Hidden Woods, by Thomas Blomberg with the following stipulations: (1) a signed park fee agreement of $1,500 per lot for eight lots be paid; (2) approval of the plat includes variances for Lot 6 to be 8,890 square feet and front yard will be approximately 60 feet at the proposed setback; further, the existing house on Lot 5 is to be five feet from new lot line to the north; (3) if garage is located on south side of Lot 6, a fire wall should be provided; (4) developer agrees to pay all applicable assessments for street, water, storm sewer, and sanitary sewer; (5) developer agrees to record plat at the County prior to issuance of a building permit; and (6) -5- COUNCIL MF. —UE OF MAY 7. 1984 k the existing garage on Lot 6 is to be removed.

He stated, during construction of the streets, dirt was moved to level off most of the terraces and provide a dividing berm between the Gena Rae Addition park land and other properties. He stated a piping system was also installed, and the plan is to fill in this area to the bottom of the exit pipe. He stated the berm at this corner of the Gena Rae Addition will retain water for periods of heavy rainfall up to a maximum of about 2 1/2 feet and then allow the water to be filtered and enter into the storm system. He stated, upon completion of the Construction, the pipe will be at the botom and the earth sloped uphill towards the softball area, but the berm would preclude any water going to the south. -8- r QJNCII FTTNC' OF C�C'I�7BER 15. 1984 Councilman Schneider stated he understands the present depression will be brought up to an elevation of 882.5 and questioned the elevation of the tennis courts on the southwest corner. Mr. Flora stated the courts are at an elevation of 885.5 so there would be about a three foot drop. Councilman Schneider asked the total area of the depressior or holding area. Mr. Flora stated it was less than 7,000 square feet, and the total land in the park area is 2.2 acres so this leaves about 2.1 acres for actual park. He further stated this ponding area could be used, except when there is a heavy rain. Councilman Schneider stated, in surrrnation, the resent holding pond is on the Gena Rae property and will be brought up to a level of the existing pipe. He stated there is no fencing intended and there should be a gentle slope. He stated, with the holding pond are, there is still 2.1 acres for useable park land even with water in the ponding area. Mr. Dick Podvin, 1391 Mississippi Street, stated there is now ten inches to one and one-half feet of water in this ponding area. He stated this area which is classified as a passive play area is, in fact, a detention pond. Mr. Flora stated when the area is filled, the water will exit through the pipe and will not be there. 8. gECET, IN n;F, M1TjZjTS OF THE SER apvg.jissi ; MEETTW2 OF APRIL 15 1984 : MOTION by Councilman Barnette to receive the minutes of the Charter Oor-nission meeting of April 16, 1984 .

BYY THOMAS BRICKNER (PUBLIC HEARING HELD 4/2/84) • Mr. Flora, Public Works Director, stated the plat, Creekridge, proposed by Mr. Brickner calls for an outlot to be designated for property on the north side of Rice Creek. He stated the plat would extend 66th Avenue from the existing deadend through the Rice Creek School property to Arthur and -3- COUNCIL MEETING OF MAY 7. 1984 construction of another street, Creek Park Lane from Arthur to Old Central. Mr. Flora stated a 15 foot access easement is requested on the west boundary of the plat to allow neighborhood access to the park area. Mr. Brickner, the developer, stated he felt the access easement should be moved to the west between two lots that his son awns. Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated the easement proposed by Mr. Brickner would be more centrally located to the park. Mayor Nee asked Mr. Brickner if he felt it was feasible to proceed with the development after reviewing the figures on the cost of the improvements. Mr. Brickner stated he felt the bids received do make it more feasible than the original estimates given for these improvements. Mr. Joe Menth, 1388 66th Avenue, questioned where the power lines would be located for this plat. Mr. Flora stated Northern States Power would be providing underground service for the development, but overhead service would continue for the existing homes. Mr. Menth asked if existing power lines would be placed underground. Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated the residents would have the option to leave the lines as is or else to have them placed underground if they wish to pay the cost. Mr. Menth questioned where the power lines would be moved. Mr. Flora stated he felt they would probably stay, basically, where they are now located. Mr. Menth stated at the public hearing there was discussion about postponing the assessment until such time as each lot was split. Mr. Qureshi stated if it is the Council's desire to postpone the assessment until such time as a lot is split, they could so direct staff so the assessment roll is prepared accordingly. Mr. Ken Moxness, 1604 66th Avenue, asked if it would be possible to obtain an easement to the creek. Mr. Qureshi stated 66th Avenue goes to Arthur Street and Arthur Street has access to the creek. MOTION by Councilman Schneider to approve the preliminary final plat, PS #84-01 with the following stipulations: (1) Outlot A be dedicated for public use; (2) a $1,500 park fee per lot for 29 lots be paid; and (3) an access easement from 66th Avenue be provided to the future park in the Gena Rae Addition and the location of this easement is to be worked out with the City staff. Seconded by Councilman Hamernik. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously. Mr. Gottwaldt, 6429 Baker Avenue, asked when the issue of the park in the -4- COUNCIL MEETING OF MAY 7. 1984 Gena Rae Addition would be on the agenda. Councilman Schneider stated the point the City is at now regarding acquisition of the property in the Gena Rae Addition came about during discussions at the Planning Commission meeting. He stated he believed representatives of the owners of the property were present at the Planning Cawdssion meeting and indicated they would be willing to sell the property if it was used for public purposes and not for residential development. Mr. Qureshi stated the City has had a number of negotiations regarding acquisition of this property. He stated the City felt as the owners are willing to sell, the best method to establish the value of the property is through a non-bias third party and the owner's attorney was so advised. Mayor Nee told Mr. Gottwaldt he understood his mother didn' t want to sell the property for housing, but wanted it developed for park purposes. Mr. Martin Johnson, 1381 Mississippi Street, stated the City never did negotiate or come back with a counter offer yet they are surveying and driving stakes into the property. He felt there has been no negotiation in good faith on the part of the City. He felt a lot was being taken for granted to proceed in this manner when the property is not owned by the City, and several asked why a park was needed on that property. Councilman Schneider stated Rice Creek School was the only recreational facility in this neighborhood and when the school disappears, he felt something has to replace these facilities to satisfy the recreational needs of the neighborhood residents. Councilman Schneider stated he felt it would be irresponsible to have housing on every lot and not be able to meet the recreational needs for the neighborhood now and in the future. He stated, as far as the developers, they would just as soon not see a park, but felt it is part of his responsiblity to provide such an area for the residents. Mr. Martin Johnson stated he only hopes his father and the Gottwaldt's get a decent price for this land as they have contributed to the community for many years. 4.

Mr. Flora stated the Planning Commission recommended approval of the lot split, providing a 15 foot bikeway/walkway easement on Mississippi Street, and that the clerical error be corrected to reflect that the 20 feet from Lot 6 added to Lot 5 be changed to 15 feet and a corrected document submitted to the Council with the recommendation that the frontage on Tract A be changed from 90 fet to 85 feet, adding five feet to Tract B. Mr. Flora stated the above corrections recommended by the Planning Ccn-nission have been made on the Council's copies.

CREEKRIDGE, BY TOM BRICKNER (RMIC HEARING.., 4/2/84) : Mr. Flora, Public Works Director, stated Mr. Brickner purchased the Rice Creek school property and is proposing a plat for development of the property. He stated the plat originally submitted to the Planning Canmission consisted of a total of 29 lots with five in the lower south corner reserved for a park area. Mr. Flora stated, during the Planning Commission review of the plat, it was felt the five lots of 0.9 acres wouldn't provide sufficient space for recreational facilities in the area. He stated the Planning Commission recommended that the City try to obtain property adjacent to the Rice Creek School in order to provide a park around two acres in size. Mr. Flora stated the Council passed a resolution authorizing the City to negotiate for the purchase of property in the Gena-Rae Addition for park purposes and the City is now in the process of attempting to purchase this property. Mr. Flora stated in lieu ofgiving property for the park, Mr. Brickner would have to give an equal amount of money. He stated, normally, the City receives 10% of the property or an amount equal to the value of that property. Councilman Schneider asked the status of the acquisition of the property for the park. Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated the City is still negotiating with the owners and they are willing to sell the property to the City. He stated, however, they haven't reached a decision on a price which satisfies both parties. He thought perhaps the judicial system may have to be used in order to establish a price for the property and, unless Council has any questions or objections, they would proceed with this process. Mr. Brickner stated he is confused as to how the plat can be approved when they haven't worked out the problems regarding the costs of the improvement. Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated the Council would be approving the plat; however, if Mr. Brickner decides he doesn't want to proceed with the development, the Council's action is mute. He stated if Mr. Brickner wishes to proceed, but wishes to make changes in the plat, he would have to come back to the Council. Mr. Brickner stated what was originally petitioned for was the plat with the cul-de-sac and not for the street to go through. He felt because the plat the Council was considering was not the one originally submitted, he would like the item tabled at this time. MOTION by Councilman Schneider to table the final plat, P. S. #84-01 , Creekridge to the next regular meeting. Seconded by Councilman Fitzpatrick. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously. -5- (Y7fTTJC IL MUTING OF APRIL 16, 1984_ 7. RECEIVING ffZMW2 O"ISSION MINUTES OF MARCH 28, 1984: r 7A.

PUBLIC HEARIW3 ON FINAL PLAT, P S #84-01. CREEKRIDGE. BY TOM BRICKNER- MOTION by Councilman Schneider to waive the reading of the public hearing notice and open the public hearing. Seconded by Councilman Barnette. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously and the public hearing opened at 7:43 p.m. Mr. Flora, Public Works Director, stated this proposal is for a residential plat on the property bounded by Arthur Street and south of Rice Creek and formerly the Rice Creek School property. Mr. Flora stated the plat consists of 29 lots, five of which were set aside for park area. He stated, however, during the Planning Commission hearing on this plat, there was considerable discussion regarding a park in this neighborhood. Mr. Flora stated the school currently provides a recreational facility for persons in this area and these facilities will no longer be available with development of this plat. He stated the residents felt the lots proposed for a park area were inadequate to maintain the level of recreational services for this area so it was requested the City look at adjacent property in the Gena-Rae Addition for additional park space. Mr. Flora stated, during this negotiation period for additional property, Mr. Blomberg came in to develop an adjacent area to the west as residential lots. He presented a sketch showing the location of Mr . Brickner 's lots and the location of the lots proposed by Mr. Blomberg. Mr. Flora stated the City is attempting to purchase property in the Gena- Rae Addition for a park which would provide a 2 . 2 acre park for neighborhood residents. Mr. Flora stated, based on this concept, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the plat at their March 14, 1984 meeting. Mr. Flora stated Mr. Brickner could then construct residences on the 29 lots, as originally proposed. He further stated, along with Mr. Brickner's plat, a road system can be provided which will allow construction of the park, the development of Mr. Blomberg's nine lots to the west, and open up the large lots to the north for future lot splitting. He stated this also would provide access from the various areas being served to the park. Councilman Schneider questioned the intentions in regard to the park property. He stated his concern is the situation which arises by approval of this plat; that is, the recreational facilities provided on the Rice Creek School property will vanish. Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated the Council authorized staff to initiate negotiations for acquisition of park land. He stated he anticipates the City would be able to acquire the property this year and, with adequate funding provided, the park would be at least partially completed in 1985. He stated the tennis courts and ball fields would, realistically, be available in 1985, providing the City has control over the land.

OPEN FORUM, VISITORS• There was no response from the audience under this item of business. �QQUNCIL MEETING OF APRIL 2. 1984 PAGE 3 Councilman Schneider stated he would like to attach a timetable as to when the park facilities would be available to residents in the area. Mr. Qureshi stated the City is presently negotiating with the owner for acquisition of the property; however, the City does have the right of eminent domain, but would prefer working with the owner and this may take a little longer period of time. Councilman Schneider stated he didn't want to get into a situation where the school is torn down and the recreational facilities are gone and the land for park purposes isn't under the City's control so there would be several years of waiting for these recreational facilities to be completed. Mr. Qureshi stated he felt the most they would be looking at is next year and didn't feel it would go beyond that date before the recreational facilities are available. Mr. Joe Menth, 1388 66th Avenue, stated the fences around the tennis courts have been taken down. He stated he also had a concern regarding the assessments. Mayor Nee suggested to Mr. Menth his concern on the assessments be discussed this evening under the item of the public hearing on the improvements. Mr. Myron Ostlund, 1400 66th Avenue, stated his concern is primarily where the roadway will be constructed in respect to the end of his lot. Mr. Flora, Public Works Director, stated the roadway is all on the Gena-Rae property and wouldn't be on Mr. Ostlund's lot. Councilman Schneider asked Mr. Ostlund if he had any plans in the future of splitting his lot. Mr. Ostlund stated he felt, at this time, he would like to maintain the large lot. Councilman Schneider questioned why the fences and the recreational facilities at Rice Creek School were being torn down. Mr. Flora stated the Parks and Recreation Commission had recommended that the Parks and Recreation Department remove all the recreational equipment at the school property. Councilman Schneider stated he felt ths action should have been concurred with by the Council before any removal of these facilities began. No other persons in the audience spoke regarding this plat.
