Report generally will follow the format of the previous annual reports for the City of Fridley. The bulk of i the report covers 1966, although there is one page devoted to 1965, and most of the tables contain figures for 1965. 1' There are a few miner departures from previous reports. On Page 21 is a list o= all the Councilmen and City and village Managers 1 who have served the City since its incorporation. More space is allotted to the Parks and Recreation function, 1 because it is the department of the City that has the most direct contact with the citizens. This is the only department of the City government in which the citizen actively participates when he is 1 using the parks or participating in the recreation program. Progress on construction of the neva City Hall is ahead of sched- ule, and it is hoped that before the end of this year, the citizens will find a much more convenient and attractive place in which to transact City business. Since all of the accomplishments of the City '._ of Fridley are due to the active participation in government of the citizens, the citizens committees, and the Council, and the cooper- ation with the City employees of all of these people, it will be most ' fitting that they will have a clean, decent, new, place in which to meet while performing their civic duties. 1 My thanks go to all of the dedicated and loyal City employees, to the City Council, and to the citizens who so willingly give of their time to the City, and for their magnificent response to the 1 disasters of 1965, and contribution to the progress of the City of Fridley that I believe is shorn in this annual report. -Respectfully submitted: &?,a P &J 1 EPW/gs Earl P. Wagner CITY MANAGER 560-3450of 7rictlecy , C;t JUV ANOKA COUNTY 6431 UNIVERSITY AVENUE NE FRIDLEY, MINNESOTA 55421 June 23, 1967 To the Citizens ' of Fridley, The follu.,,iing pages are a re ' report to the Council for the years�19651and�1966.City j�As yours trustees, the Council reels this report should be passed on to ' you. It should be pointed out that in 19661 we instituted a ' seal_ coa-fling progra.n as preventive maintenance on our streets, began a side~=3alk program for the safety of our children, con- tracted for a new fire truck, initiated a city beautification ' Project., and many other projects that might be considered in the nature of a backlog, having been deferred in past years. As you will see in next year 's report, 1967 promises to be an , even greater year. We can all be justifiably proud of our City and are , pleased to see Fridley take an increasingly important role among the rest of the suburbs in the Metropolitan area. our ' successes are achieved only through the cooperation and hard work of those dedicated citizens that serve so willingly on our various cOymissions and committees. To you who serve, we ' will ever be grateful. Sincerely, ' C�-C,�< a Jack ' O. Kirkham 14AYOR 1965 The year of 1965 will go do7n in the history of Fridley as the Year of Disaster. Beginning on March 1, 1965 , the City was plagued by rain, and sudden thaws, resulting in overtaxing of the storm sewer system on March 1st and April 1st. On April 12th, the Mississippi Fiver moved into a portion o_ Fridley, in the northwest corner, resulting in the evacuation by the Fridley Fire and Police Departme:z'cs o= the residents of approximately 40 homes. The City haC just abov.t recovered from these emergencies, when on the evening of ",ay 6, 1965, three tornadoes moved through the City. Tile result was devastation. Approximately 525 homes were totally destroyed and approXi.mately 1,100 homes were damaged to such an extent that the residents were not permitted to return to them for some tune after the disaster. The response by all of the City employees, the City Council, and the citizens of Fridley to this disaster was magnificent. Citizens of neighboring com- munities, and erlplcyees ow= neighboring cor�ii-rwi.niti.es, volunteered services to the citizens of Fridley, and gave invaluable assistance in the major cleanup task that confronted Fridley on May 7th. Volunteer workers carne from as far away as Canada to assist in the cleanup. The citizens o Fridley will always be grate--u1 to these volunteers for their sel=less dedication to people JLn trouble. There was no annual report prepared by the City Manager for the year 1965, because of tree unusual happenings in that year. Since practically all of the time and effort of all of the City employees of Fridley was taken up with disaster recovery, the reports, statistics, and financial figures normally available early in the follo..7ing year were not available early enough in 1966 to prepare sura: a rep o_t. In fact, the final audit by the State Public Er aroine.r 's office o_ the Funds received from the Federal Government through the Office of Emergency Planning was not completed until early in 1967. This audit showed that the City was justified in using Federal funds to the amount- of $499,205 .00. Additionally, the City spent $20,000.00 of its own funds, and the amounts budgeted for 1965 for routine City operations did not accomplish most of these routine City operations, since nearly all of the time of the employees was spent on disaster recovery. The Council responsible for running the Cit- y during this troublous time was composed of Mayor S;illiam J. Nee, Councilman Raymond E . Sheridan, Councilman Glenn ;. Thoipson, Councilman Jack O. Kirkham, and Councilman John C. ,right. The Council met fre- quently, and lid a magnificent jobb of urovidirg leadership for the City ercployees and the citizens O-f- Fridley in making the remarkable recovery that Fridley did from this disaster. 1 ) , e N -- -� ---•- `I ' � ' '— ( Woodcrest School 880 Osborne Rd.

Fridley was incorporated as a Village in 1949, and became a City through approval by the voters of a Charter in September 1957. In Minnesota, a municipality, no matter ho-.a large, is a Village so long as it does not have a Charter. A municipal- ity with a Charter, no matter haua small, is called City. The Council-Manager form of government was adopted by the Village of Fridley in 1954 under the so-called Plan B provisions of State Laa, thea °�7as adopted in the ne7a Charter in September, 1957. This form of governmemc provides for an elected Council, which then appoints a City Manager and in the case of the Fridley Charter, the City Attorney. Under the Charter, the City Manager is responsible for all employees as per Section 6.02 B "to appoint, suspend and remove with the consent and approval of the Council, all city officers and employees except as in this Charter otherwise provided" . The City Council functions under Section 2.01 in which it is stated that, "all discretionary po^rers of the City, both Legislative and Executive, shall vest in and be exercised by the City Council. It shall have com_Dlete control over the City Admin- istration, but shall exercise this control exclusively through the City Manager, and shall not itself attempt to perform any administrative work" . It is hoped that this Administrative report to the City Council will be in readable enough form that, if the Council so desires, it can be printed and distributed to all of the citizens, so that they will be inforimed of their City Government. Local government usually follaas the general format of the Federal goverrmant in that there is a separation of Legislative, Judicial, and Executive functions. This report will be divided into those general categories. LEGISLAt I%iE CITY COtTN;CIL The City Council is the Legislature of the City and most of the Charter provisions applying directly to the City Council are found in Charters 2 and 3 of the Charter. Since the Council is the final authority o��? gOvei:nraenC a Efairs in the Ci�y of Fridley, all Chapters of the Chaster, of course, are the concern_ of the Council. t 3 , There are five members on the Fridley City Council. Four of them are designated as Councilmen, and one designated as Mayor. The Mayor and Councilman-at-Large are elected by all of the voters of Fridley, and there is a Councilman from Tard One, Ward Two, and ' Ward Three. AW A ` a Z xg� Fridley City Council Left to Right: Councilmen Frank G. Liebl, David O. Harris, Mayor Jack O. Kirkham, Councilmen Leonard W. Samuelson, Raymond E. Sheridan. The terms are staggered so that there are never more than two offices on the ballot in any one year. The terms are staggered such that the Mayor and the Councilman-at-Large positions are up for election in one year, the Councilman from Ward One and tlard Three the next year, and the Councilman from Ward Two the following year. Councilmen that served in 1966 were Mayor Jack 0. Kirkham, Councilman-at-Large David O. Harris, Councilman 1st Ward Leonard w. Samuelson, Councilman 2nd ward Raymond E . Sheridan, and Councilman 3rd Ward John C. Wright. The Councilmen serving the City of Fridley in 1967 are Mayor Jack 0. Kirkham, Councilman-at-Large David 0. Harris, Councilman 1st V17ard Leonard w. Samuelson, Councilman 2nd Ward Raymond E . Sheridan, and Councilman 3rd Ward Frank G. Liebl. Councilmen Liebl and Samuelson were elected for three year terms in Novenwer 1966. ( 4 ) The names, addresses, phone numbers and terms of office of the present Council are pound on Page 26 of this report. The Council also sits as the Board of Equalization to hear the citizen-taxpayer relative to his property valuation. The principal accomplishment of the City Council in 1966 was to award the bid for construction of the new Fridley City Hall on October 31, 1966. The total of the bids was $450,948.00 . In 1965 there were 30 regular and 30 special Council meetings. During 1966, there were 24 regular and 19 special Council meetings, at which the Council passed 192 resolutions and 6 ordinances. The City Council meets rzl_�gularly on the first and third Mondays of each month at 8 P.M. at the Fridley City Hall, 6431 University Avenue Northeast. The second Monday of each month is reserved by the Council for public hearings when necessary. CITIZEN C01KMITTEES AND C01,L'IISSIOitiS The organizational chart on the inside of the front cover of this report shows the various citizen conLmittees and commissions that assist the Council in carrying out its duties as the governing body of the City. The work of some of these corxmittees and cor'. issions will be discussed in more detail below, although not all Of the com- mittees can be discussed in detail because of lack of space. PLAN-NING COMMISSION Chapters 45 and 52 of the City Code of Fridley sets forth most of the rules and regulations with which the Planning commission deals. Chapter 45 is the zoning rules and regulations, and Chapter 52 is the platting rules and regulations. Early in 1967, the makeup of the Planning Commission was reorgan- ized by the City Council. The office of the General Chairman remained the same. The Plats and Subdivisions Subcommittee and the Streets and Utilities Subcommittee were combined into one connittee, the Chairman of which is a member of the Planning Commission. The Board of Appeals as a separate body was eliminated and becaca a subcommittee of the Planning Commission with the Chairman a member of the Planning Cor�Lmis- sion and with the Board of Appeals having final determination of appeals made to it. Previously, the Board was advisory only to the Council. Now, the Board 's decision is final subject only to appeal to the City Council or to the Courts. ^he Council eliminated tine ;'gilding Board by combining it with the Building Standards Subcoirumittee of the Plan- ning Cor,uaission and it is now designated as a Building Standards- Desi gr_ ,Control Subcorninc ittee, with its Chairm?Ln a mer6Der of the Plan- ning Corru-nission. The fifth merrber of the Planning Com-nission is the same as previously, namely the Chairman of the s an Commission which is a subcoaittee of the PlanningkCommissioneation mm- The Planning Commission meets on the second and fourth ' of each month with the meeting on the second Thursday devoted tosreys quests by citizens Tor rezoning, lot splits, on the fourth Thursdayof the month b pthe plats, etc. The meeting Y Commission is reserved for general planning by the commission. The Commission has spent many hours in studying the ordinance, Chapter 45 of the City Code, attempting to update itpresent and ntog ro imp it by eliminating certain undesirable types of land use from it. The principal accomplishment of the Planning' Corlmission wa �e to recommend to the Council a new land use s clasasi ,_l= ration, namely the Planned Development District.

BOARD OF APPEALS The change in status of the Board of Appeals has been discussed on a previous page of this report. The Board meets on call based upon petition for variances from Chapter 45 of the City Code or petition for Special Use Permits. Their meetings are PLfDlic hearings, as ad- vertised for fourteen days prior to such public hea�ring. Members the Board in 1965 Caere Chairman :Tarry Na�and merocki, and mbers �aansoref Goodrich, Leonard Janko.aski, Ed Fitzpatrick,and me During most of 1966, the Board remained the same except ne Jthat eLeonard �A Jankayski resigned before the end of the Year. Members of the Board serving during 1967 are Chairman Robert Ylinen, and members Robert Ahonen, Robert 14inish, Wayne Saunders, and Tom Myhra.

Members of the Coo-Assion besides Chairman Hughes, are John Dunphy, James Spence, E&aard Fitzpatrick, and Thomas Cochran. ' BUILDING STANDARDS-DESIGN CONTROL SUBCOhu4ITTEE This com-aittee, as related before, is made up of a_ combination of two committees, namely the Building Standards Committee and the Building Board. Its Chairman, Oliver R. Erickson, serves on the Planning commission. This com-nittee determines whether or not any proposed structure conforms too much or too little with the surrounding area and also whether or not it is aesthetically acceptable. Structures considered are industrial, comruarcial or multiple dwelling structures. Additionally, they attempt to keep up to date with changes in materials and construction techniques so that the City of Fridley Building Code will be up to date in its application. Members of the coramittee be- sides its Chairman are Earl Biermann, Carrol Hauge from the First Ward, William Toneo from the Second Ward, and Richard Dittes from the Third Ward. The committee meets on the first and third Tuesdays of each month at 7:30 P.14. at the City Hall. OTHER COMB-+.ITTEE S AND C.0-M 4'IS S IONS The follo:°ging committees have an eq,. .all y important ?lace in the structure o-,= City government in Fridley, but space limitatJons require that their work be reported in capsule form.

The City Attorney attends all City Council meetings, provides legal opinions to the City Council and t'ne City Manager upon request, and prepares all ord- inances and resolutions. EXECUT JE CITY kaNAGER The City Manager 's place in the structure of the local goverm-ment of Fridley is spelled out in Chapter 6, Sections 6.01 and 6.02 of the City Charter. Principal responsibility of the City Manager is the supervision of all the administrative operations of the City governaaert and attendance at all meetings of the City Council. He also attends nearly all of the me�atings of the various citizen committees and commissions, and in 1965 and 1966, attended more than 150 evening meetings in each year. other major responsibilities of the Manager City y r ger a_e preparation and enforcement of the budget, preparation of tine agenda for each Council meeting, and prepzrat ion of an administrative report to the Council on an annual basis. F RN ttU?CE DE?A_1!'' •'E N`I' The City Clerk--Treasurer of the City is also designated ' as the Finance Director. The many functions of the Finance Depart- ment include accounting, utilities billing, preparation o% special assessment rolls, and receipt and disbursement of city funds. For these purposes, the Finance Department has been divided into divisions, namely City Clerk's Office, City Treasurer 's Office, Assessor' s Office, Accounting, Utilities Billing, and Special Assessments. CITY CLERK'S OFFICE The City Clerk's duties in connection with the keeping of public records, the custody and disbursement of public funds and other duties as ordained by the City Council are delineated in Section 6.04 of the City Charter. The City Clerk, who also serves as the City Treasurer and . Finance Director, attends all. meetings of the City Council. Pia j or function o� the City Clerk's o2yice is the disbursement oy money. The surinary statement of expenditures and encumbrances for the year ' ending Decerilber 31, 1966, on Page 24, indicates the extent of said disbursements, all o= which must be accounted for to the satisfaction o the auditor engaged by the Council_ to audit the books each year. The appropriation ordinance for 1967, which is on Page 25 indicates the extent of disbursements that -will be made by this office. CITY TREASUI ER'S OFFICE All monies belonging to the City are paid to the City Treasurer by the person authorized to receive said monies. This provision is found in Section 7.13 of the City Charter. The Finance Director, in performing his duties as the City Treasurer, serves as a member of the City Investment Co m ttee, which is made up also of the ~Mayor and City manager. The Finance Director handles the detail wo?:k of this corx7nittee by revie,�,ing the day by day fluctuations of the investment market to see that the temporarily idle City funds are properly invested. In 1966, the City realized earnings of $167,295 .98 from its investments. The revenues received by the City Treasurer for %,,hich he must account properly to the satisfaction o= the auditor are summarized on Page 23 . ASSESSOR'S OFFICE Three full time employees carry out the functions of the Assessor's Office with acdit.ional temporary help hired during the real estate appraisal ye? r.a ane City Assessor is is ervin Herrmann, the Appraiser is Leon !Madsen, and the Clerk is Elinor Thoer_nes. The only function of this office is to determine the value oL the property in the City Of Fridley and report these valuations to the City Council sitting ' as the Board OT Equalization. The Anoka County Assessor determines the formulas to be used by the Assessor and Appraiser, and sets the percent of market value of the property that the Assessor will use to determine the full and true value Of the property. The Assessor 's office does not set the null rates or determine the amount of taxes that will be levied against any particular piece or property. It seems appropriate, ho,vever, at this point to indicate com- parative mill rates -or the City go��ernmental operations only of the various eom unities in this area. These comparisons will be Lound in Table I, belo r.

These cilar_ts show the percent of your tax l dollar that goes to each taxing entity affecting Fridley ta}cpayers. You will note that the City goverment of .Fridley receives a very small percent o the tax dollar. _ ACCOUNTING The Chie.L Accountant who is directly responsible to the Finance Director oversees the operation of this division of the Finance Department. The ChieL Accountant is responsLble for all of the bookkeeping of the City and the financial Report, and also, the writing of all checks nor the City. 1211ZTI-S_BILL-MG The rapid gro,mrh Of the Utilities accounts is shcr--7n in Table II.

It is hoped that these rate changes will enable heavy users of water, and residential heavy users of ' water for summer lagan care, to have a more reasonable water bill during those periods. The sewer rate, ho ;ever, had to be raised because the sewer utility was operating at a deficit. , TABLE II NUVJBER OR ACTIVE WATER _& SE ,o—ED ACCOMNS (As of December 31) 1957 1958 1959 1960 1961 1,270 1,850 2,649 3,015 3,387 1962 1963 1964 1965 1966 3,990 4,437 4, 730 5,080 5,304 SPECIAL ASSESSPENTS The continuous rapid growth of Fridley has required many im- provement projects concerned with the installation of water lines, sewer lines, storm se•,or lines, and street curb and gutter and paving, All of these require .,or assessment rolls for the pifolic hearings on t'he improvements and also, final special assessment rolls so that collections of the money necessary to pay for these improve- ments can be billed on the tax statements by Anoka County. The number of rolls that milt be prepared each year keeps the employees of this division 17orking at a fran-ittic pace. Preparaticn of these assessment rolls is not the only function of this division, since it must make assess rent searches, respread assessments When property is , divided, and handle prepayments o^ assessments.. PUBLIC SAFETY POLICE DE?ARTI Eti'T There are t�-.enty-two full time employees in this department attempting to handle the increasing work Load. Table III illustrates this work load and the reason why the size of the Police Department is gradually increasing through the years.
