extremely inefficient use of this property, particularly in lie t of the

Plats & Subs -Str & Util. Subcommittee - December 8, 1971 Page 3
3. LOT SPLIT REQUEST, L.S. 71-14, BY EUNICE 0. ENGELHARDT: Lot 5, Block 2,
Riverwood Manor Addition. To establish two building sites.
No one was present to discuss the request.
Mr. Qureshi said that Lot 5 was platted as a fairly large lot. Mr. Engelhardt
tried to sell it, but has not been able to do so, and now wants to split the land
into two lots. He would have to provide additional water and sewer service because
he originally provided for only one lot. The lot split would meet all the require-
ments of the City Code. The 5 foot utility easements are already there. The
split would not affect the construction site. He does have enough area to be
able to construct two fairly good sized buildings. The street is already paved,
and Mr. Engelhardt would ,just have to provide for one extra water and sewer ser-
vice. The surrounding area is fairly well built up.
MOTION by Meissner, seconded by Engdahl, that the Plats & Subdivisions-Streets
& Utilities Subcommittee recommend approval to the Planning Commission of the Lot
Split Request, L.S. ##71-14, by Eunice O. Engelhardt to split Lot 5, Block 2,
Riverwood Manor Addition to establish two building sites, subject to easements
in accordance with the papers the Subcommittee have before them at this meeting.
Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, the motion carried unanimously.
4. LOT SPLIT REQUEST: L.S. #71-15 BY JOHN M. METCALFE_: Lot 16, except the
Easterly 165 feet thereof , Revised Auditor's Subdivision No. 23. For a
proposed second building site.
No one was present representing the request.
Mr. Qureshi said there is a house on Lot 16, and Mr. Metcalfe plans to take
off the front of the lot, retain the back half of the lot where the house is and
sell the front part. The providing of water and sewer services would have to be
considered. The Subcommittee, if they wished, could approve the request subject
to Mr. Metcalfe working out the utilities with the Engineering Department. Ease-
ments are to be provided on the East half of the lot. This area was a problem
in regard to landlocked lots. The City had a lot of meetings and hearings and
tried to meet all the conditions, requirements and objections of different people
and make the plan palatable to everyone. The final decision was to put Riverview
Terrace through Lot 16. Although the street goes through Lot 16, there is enough
room left for the petitioner to have two lots to the West of the street.
MOTION by Meissner, seconded by Pierce, that the Plats & Subdivisions-Streets
& Utilities recommend approval to the Planning Commission of the Lot Split, L.S.
##71-15 by John M. Metcalfe, to split Lot 16, except the Easterly 165 feet of
Revised Auditor's Subdivision No. 23 for a second building site, subject to the
applicant's working out the details necessary for water and sewer, and obtain
easements for access to the rear lots, with the Engineering Department. Upon a
voice vote, all voting aye, the motion carried unanimously.
ADJOURNMENT:
MOTION by Engdahl, seconded by Meissner, that the meeting be adjourned at
7:45 P.M. Upon a voice vote, the motion carried.
Respectfully submitted
Hazel O'Brian - Recording Secretary
Plats. & Subs.- Str. & Util. Mts.- July 12, 1472 Page 2
Mr. Clark explained that before the lake was formed, the land was owned by
two people, 0* - Ostman and Drew Scherer. They are still the owners of the
lake bottom. if one person owned the lake and everybody around the lake shared
• the cost of platting, the lake bottom could be divided into lots. Then the one
owner could deed the individual lots to the adjacent owner. For example, the
land in front of Mr. Schultz®s house, because the shoreline has shifted, is owned
by another person and consequently, Mr. Schultz has no lake access.
• Mr. Schultz said his surveyor may not have enough time to do it. There will
be 50 different ideas of hoes it should be decided because there are 50 lakeshore
owners. There are some people who will not deed their ptoperty to the Lakeshore
because they had their property before there was a lake.
2. U T SPLIT T. I,.S. f72-041 -BY EDWARD Er COLEMAN ATTORNEY FOR JOHN
M. NETCAiFEs Lot 16, except East 155 feet, Revised Auditor's Subdivision
#23 -- to split off South five feet of Lot 16.
Mr. Gerald M. Ratidall, Associate, of the office of Edward E. Coleman.repre-
sented Mr. Metcalfe.
Mr. Clark reviewed the lot split request of a year ago referring to the map
on Page 8 of the Agenda, and said Mr. Metcalfe got approval to split the land
that runs from the Mississippi to the East side of Riverview Terrace, being one
large parcel into three R-1 lots. It was stipulated that he provide a second
utility and driveway easement for sewer and water and access for the house now
located an the river. 'When the survey was made, it was discovered that the
neighbor to the South had his garage built with a 1.+ foot overlap. The City
has one deed already signed but not recorded for Riverview Terrace. The County
won't accept it because of the title which was in the name of the father-in-law
of Mr. Metcalfe, but not Mr. Metcalfe has the title.
Mr:. Clark continued that the driveway goes across the Southerly part of the
laid The uti.li€les also may work out better on the South line. Nothing has been
recorded yet so that it wi-11 not be a problem. The lot now is 41 feet wide and
splitting off the South 5 feet would leave 86 feet. There is quite a bit of
room between the new lett line and the existing house so that line could slide
East or West. The contract for the deed has -been paid off within the last few
awths. We should get a new deed signed by Mr. Metcalfe for Biw°erview Terrace.
Gerald Randall said he thought this would be taken care of soon. There
is a sortgage on the five foot strip that Mr. Metcalfe is selling. When the
mortgage is released, a sdrvey will be made of the whole area.
Mr. Clark said the serer is rather shallow that cowee is to the house on the
river. If it can serve that house3 it can serve the propused . However,
It X11. have to be relocated. As youmoveSouth, you gain depth in the sewer
iibey
8e added that the lot split cannot be completed until a survey is made Pf
the entire parcel so that proper legal descriptions can be brought up.
!MMS by French, seconded by Forster, that the Plats t. Subdivisions-Streets 6
UtfliUes Tubcca ndttee recommend to the Planning commiss1cm approval of the Lot
Spit Request, L.S. #72-04, by .john K. Metcalfe splitting of the Southerly 5 feet
of Lot 16, except the Bast 165 feet, Revised Auditor's Subdivision #23 subject
Plats & Subs.-Str. & UPage 3
to receiving a certificate of survey of the entire Lot 16 showing the location
of all subsequent lot lines with proper legals describing them. Upon a voice
vote, all voting aye, the motion carried unanimously.
3. .LOT SPLIT REQUEST: L.S. #72-05, BY LAUREN BORN: Lot 20, Block 1, Spring
Valley Addition -- to be split into four lots because of high tares.
Mr. and Mrs. Lauren Born were present.
Mr. Clark explained that on the East side of the property there is an alley
going in a North/South direction. The lot is 335 feet deep. It is planned to
have a 50 foot street coming from Arthur Street towards Central Avenue. The
half of the lot abutting Central Avenue is zoned commercial and the East half is
zoned R-1. Mr. Born submitted two proposals for his -request.
Proposal "A9° is divided into four lots meeting the present R-1 land area
requirements without additional right of way for the North/South street along
the Eastern edge of the property. Proposal "B" shows these lots as being smaller
than the R-1 requirements. Mr. Born apparently feels because he has to give up
34 feet, the lots have to be smaller -- he might be able to get a variance. The
zoning line on proposed Lot 2 comes within about 8 feet of the Eastern line of
Lot 2. The existing house is on the corner lot. Mr. Born has spent quite a bit
of money remodeling it. The house had no basement.
Mr. Meissner wondered if a cul de sac could be used instead of Mr. Born
dedicating 34 feet for a street. Mr. Clark answered that a couple of years ago,
there was a request for a lot split to the North of here. The petitioner was
asked to dedicate 34 feet for the North/South street. Because this area does
not have a storm sewer and will eventually have to have one if the split goes
through, Council probably will ask Mr. Born to escrow $8.00 per 100 square feet
for €;;toren sewer. The lots would hook onto sewer and water from 64th Avenue.
Mr. Schmedeke said that he liked to favor the petitioner at every opportunity
he gets, but here two different zonings are involved. The house on Mr. Born's
property is in C-1 which makes it a non-conforming use. Most of the second lot
would be in C-1 so there would be a creation of a commercial lot which was under-
sized. He would prefer Plan B as shown on Page 12 of the Agenda because the
street is shoran, but could not go along with the request at this timea He asked
tbe Swbcoumittee if there would be any way they could help this man, perhaps by
a change in the zoning. There could be the possibility of this being considered
spot zoning.
Addressing the Subcommittee, Mro Clark asked if Mr. Born decided to rezone
the property and it was approved„ could he be assured the lot split would be
accepted.
Mr. Born was informed of the rezoning procedure.
Mr. Meissner noted that the two lots North of Lot 20 were zoned C-1 (Lots
18 and 19) and the two lots North of them were zoned C-2. He wondered if it
would be possible to rezone the three lots in the same category.
Mrs Clark said that the lots could be split along the zoning line. C-1
facing mitral Avenue and R-1 facing 64th Avenue.
Planning Commission Meeting - December 8, 1971 Page 9
MOTION by Fitzpatrick, seconded by Schmedeke, that the public hearing be
continued until January 12, 1972 and that a check of the list of people noti-
fied be made for the proposed Preliminary Plat, P,S. #71-05, Edgewater Gardens
Plat 2, by Sam Templin being a replat of Lots 1 through 9, Block 10, Fridley
Park Addition and the Vacation Request, SAV #71-08, Sam Temp2in to vacate the
existing alley in Block 10, Fridley Park Addition. Upon a voice vote, all
voting aye, the motion carried unanimously.
6. LOT SPLIT REQUEST, L.S. #71-14, BY EUNICE 0. ENGELH.ARDT: Lot 5, Block 2,
Riverwood Manor Addition. To establish two building sites.
Mr. and Mrs. Engelhardt were present.
The City Engineer explained that because this is a large lot, Mr. Engel-
hardt was unable to sell it as such, therefore he was asking for a split. Mr,
Engelhardt put in only one water and sewer service for the large lot, and
now he would be required to put in another. One lot would be approximately
75 feet and the other 79 feet wide. The lots meet the area requirements.
Once the lot split is approved, the petitioner is required to get a certificate
of survey. The Commission could leave the survey requirement open so that if
Mr. Engelhardt would have a buyer, it could be produced at that time.
,MOTION by Fitzpatrick, seconded by Zeglen, that the Planning Commission
recommend to Council the Lot Split Request, L.S. #71-14, by Eunice O. Engel-
hardt, to split Lot 5, Block 2, Riverwood Manor Addition in order to get two
building sites subject to the understanding there is no objections to an addi-
tional water and sewer service and that the certificate of survey be submitted
at the time the lot is sold. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, the motion
carried unanimously.
7. LOT SPLIT REQUEST: JOHN M. METCALFE: Lot 16, except the Easterly 165
feet thereof, Revised Auditoi`si Subdivision No. 23. For a proposed
second building site.
The explanation by the City Engineer was that although Riverview Terrace
goes through the Easterly part of Lot 16, there is adequate land for the split.
There is a house on Lot 16 and Mr. Metcalfe plans to split off the front of the
lot, retaining the West half of the lot where the house is and sell the other
half.
Mr. Schmedeke said that the Plats & Subdivisions-Streets & Utilities Sub-
committee approved the lot split with the stipulation that Mr. Metcalfe work
with the Engineering Department to get all the necessary easements and other
requirements.
Chairman Erickson commented that the lots would be approximately 91 feet
wide and an average of 100 feet deep. If the easement were taken off, the
lots would be substandard. He wondered if Mr. Metcalfe were aware that when he
starts digging for sewer and water that the service would be fairly deep in the
middle lot. It is lower 'than the roadway, depending upon where the lot line
would be. He might not be able to relocate the service.

Planning Commission Meeting - December 8, 1971 Page 10
MOTION by Schmedeke, seconded by Fitzpatrick, that the Planning Commission
table the Lot Split Request, L.S. #71-15, by John M. Metcalfe to split Lot 16,
except the Easterly 165 feet thereof, Revised Auditor's Subdivision No. 23
until January 12, 1972. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, the motion carried
unanimously.
8. SET PUBLIC HEARING DATE OF JANUARY 12, 1972: REQUEST FOR A SPECIAL USE
PERMIT, SP #71-17, DON'S GULF SERVICE STATION. Request for U-Haul rentals
on Easterly 351 feet of Lot 12 and Easterly 351 feet of the Southerly
20 feet of Lot 11, Auditor's Subdivision No. 155, except that part taken
for highway and street purposes, per Code Section 45.101, Subsection 6,
Paragraph 3E.
MOTION by 2eglen, seconded by Fitzpatrick, that the Planning Commission set
the Public Hearing date of January 12, 1972 for the Special Use Permit, SP
#71-17, by Don's Gulf Service Station for U-Haul rentals. Upon a voice vote,
all voting aye, the motion carried unanimously.
9. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN FOR THE CITY OF FRIDLEY:
The Commission set the date of January 26, 1972 as a study meeting for the
Comprehensive Plan for the City of Fridley.
10. SECOND MEETING IN DECEMBER (DECEMBER 22, 1971) .
The Commission decided to forego the Planning Commission meeting of
December 22, 1972. The next regular meeting of the Planning Commission will
be January 12, 1971.
11. GUIDE LINES FOR LOTS SUBSTANDARD IN SIZE:
Chairman Erickson said the question is if a petitioner, when he purchased
a 40 foot lot, could legally build on it. In 1956 he could not build on 40
foot lots, nor can he today. The question now is what should the Planning
Commission do about these lots.
The City Engineer referred to the McCline lots: They were tax forfeit
before 1963, since then no taxes were paid and the lots went tax forfeit
again. On two of the lots East of 3rd Street in the Plymouth Addition, there
would be a way to build by vacating the street and adding the additional land
to the lots. This would give Mr. McCline 70 foot lots.
The Chairman said that wherever possible, the Commission should try to
work out some guide lines or statement of policy. The study this evening
would be confined to Plymouth Addition.
After a lengthy discussion among the members of the Planning Commission,
Mr. Qureshi summarized the Commission's comments as follows:
'Planning Commission Meeting - January 12, 1972 Page 8
Chairman Erickson left the meeting.
6. CONTINUED LOT SPLIT REQUEST, L.S. 471-15, BY JOHN M. METCALFE: Lot 16,
except the Easterly 165 feet thereof, Revised Auditor's Subdivision No. 23.
For proposed second building site.
Mr. and Mrs. John Metcalfe were present.
Darrel Clark explained the existing house is located on the proposed lot
abutting the river. The water and sewer service does run through the middle of
the second building site. They would have to run the new service up the drive-
way easement to the existing house on the river. The new house would be on that
part of Lot 16 abutting Riverview Terrace.
Mr. Metcalfe said the lot is 300 feet deep. The back door of the new house
would be near Riverview Terrace. It seemed like a waste to have a huge lot just
setting there. The lots to the North are not developed, but have been split
legally in a similar manner to his request. He would have to have an easement
to come into his property from Riverview Terrace.
The documents for Riverview'Terrace have not been recorded at the County.
The contract purchaser had signed, but the fee owner did not.
Mr. Metcalfe said that the fee owner has probably about $1,900 remaining on
the contract for deed which he (Mr. Metcalfe) assumed. Mr. Klingenschmidt, his
father-in-law, has the most equity in the property and approves the request.
Mr. Metcalfe continued that the triangular piece of ground East of Riverview
Terrace was cut off the original piece by the street. Nothing has been done
about it, but at the time a survey is made, they could include it with the
house East of Riverview Terrace.
Mr. Clark said that at one time Riverview Terrace was not in and all houses
had to go out to East River Road. The 12 foot easement goes out to East River
Road. The former owner of Mr. Metcalfe's house kept the easement across the
Mattson property located on the East side of Riverview Terrace.
Mr. Metcalfe said his intention was that the existing garage, attached to
the house on the North side, be enclosed for a family room and he would build a
separate detached garage on the South side of the property.
Mr. Minish asked Darrel to give a quick description for the new lots after
the lot split: 1)all that part of Lot 16 lying Easterly of Riverview Terrace as
laid out and traveled; 2) all that part of Lot 16 of the Easterly X number of
feet lying Westerly of Riverview Terrace as now laid out and traveled; 3) all
that part of Lot 16 except the Easterly X number of feet, subject to road
easement, etc.
MOTION by Schmedeke, seconded by Zeglen, that the Planning Commission recom-
mend approval of the Lot Split request, L.S. #71-15, by John M. Metcalfe, for
Lot 16, except the Easterly 165 feet thereof, Revised Auditor's Subdivision No.
23 for a proposed second building site with the following stipulations:

is the possible relocation of the liquor store. This involves their tax money.
Another issue, of course, would be CATV, and there will be more issues coming
up during the year. He agreed that it must not be a partisal political vehicle.
MOTION by Councilman Kelshaw to instruct the Administration to compile a quarterly
newsletter as outlined in the City Manager's memorandum. Seconded by Councilman
Mittelstadt.
Councilman Breider said he assumed that this would include two mailings being
made in conjunction with that of the Parks and Recreation Department and the
Fire Department. Councilman Kelshaw said yes, but he did not want too much
material to be sent along, or it would get lost and not read. The Fire Depart-
ment report could be incorporated in the newsletter. Councilman Breider said,
as he understood it, by combining the two mailings with the newsletter the City
would save $800.
The City Manager asked what action would be necessary to appropriate the necessary
funds. The Finance Director said it would be necessary to pass a resolution.
THE VOTE upon the motion, being a voice vote, Mittelstadt, Breider, Kelshaw and
Liebl voting aye, Utter voting nay, Mayor Liebl declared the motion carried.

RECEIVING REPORT ON THE WATERMAIN BREAK ON 62ND WAY, WEST OF EAST RIVER ROAD:
Mayor Liebl read the memorandum from the City Engineer dated January 14, 1972 aloud
to Mr. Richard Harris, in the audience. Mr. Harris said that his main concern
was really not whether the water main would break again, but it is near a high
pressure gas main, and that was really his main concern. If something were to
happen to the gas main, a few houses could be lost. Councilman Mittelstadt said
that the report was really not complete - he would like to know where the gas
main was in the street and where it lies in relation to the watermain. The City
Engineer said that he could tell him where the physical facilities are in the
street, but it is all a matter of economics. He said he hoped that if Mr. Harris
knows of some difficulty, he will notify the City. There are a number of areas
similar to that Mr. Harris described where there are oil lines under pressure,
and if they were to blow,there would be trouble. He added that Fridley does have
24 hour service.

Dear Mr. Metcalfe:
This is to advise you that on January 17, 1972 the City
Council of Fridley approved your request to split Lot 16, Revised
Auditor's Subdivision No. 23 into three parcels with three stipu-
lations.
1) That you rededicate the right of way for Riverview
Terrace.
D2) That a 12 foot driveway and utility easement be
retained from the lot adjacent to Riverview Terrace to serve ther
lot on the River.
3) That at the time a building permit is to be issued on
the new lot, proper steps be taken to relocate the present sewer
and water service to the house on the river.
Y
We will also need copies of the surveyor's certificates for
all three parcels. When you become fee owner of the street right of
way area, please notify me so we can supply you with bbe proper
document dedicating it to the City as contained in the first stipulation.
If you or your surveyor have any questions, please feel free
to call me.
Yours very truly
