Mr. Boardman stated that in view of the number of people in the audience and
the presence of a petition, the petition and any further testimony from the
people should be presented to the Planning Commission.
(Ms. Hughes arrived at the meeting at 7:41 p.m.)
Mr. Michael Larson, 6390 Starlite Blvd., read the petition opposing the rezoning
from M-1 to either R-2 or R-3. He stated the names on the petition were just a
small sampling of the neighborhood. Many more people support these views and
they will be at the next Planning Commission meeting if needed.
MOTION BY 1�2. WHARTON, SECONDED BY MS. SCHAIABEL, T0 RECEIVE TNE PETITION REQUEST-
ING THE PLANNIIVG COMMISSICN TO REJECT THE CONSIDERATION OF REZONING THIS PROPERTY
FROM M-1 TO EITHER R-2 OR R-3. (Petition 1-�98��
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRMAN EARRIS DECI�ARED THE MOTION CARRIED
UNANIMOUSLY.
Mr. Harris stated the petition was received and would accompany tl�e Planning
Commission's m.inutes to the City Council on this item.
Ms. Judy Kidder, 6360 Starlite Blvd., stated they had spent the past week getting
prganized and contacting other neighbors. They had made arrangements to come to
this meeting, and many of them had babysitters. She asked if the Planning
Commission could make a decision on this rezoning request that evening as none '��
of them had been notified of the request for continuation by the petitioners.
She did not think it was fair if this was continued.
Mr. Harris stated the decision to continue or move on this item was up to the
Planning Commission. He stated he was rather upset that Mr. Doty has asked for
a continuation at such a late date. Mr. Harrisstated he thought the Commission
had made it plain to Mr. Doty and everyone else concerned that he was expected
back at this meeting with his proposal.
Mr. Rice, 100 Sylvan Lane, stated that back in 1965, they had a problem with a
low spot in the Sylvan Hills area, but there were no complaints about flooded
basements or sewer problems. After Satellite East and West was built, all of
a sudden the City Engineering Dept. was flooded with complaints of flooded base-
ments and backed-up sewers. A new pumping station had to be built and water
mains enlarged. This cost the Sylvan Hills neighbors quite a bit of money.
He stated that, if additional units were built, would the present pumping station
be big enoug h to han d le t he extra sewage?
Mr. Boardman stated the City Engineering Dept. had looked at this and did not
see any problems.
Mr. Rice stated that he was told that Mr. Doty wanted a blanket permit to put
in whatever he wanted. What isto stop Mr. Doty from putting in 68 units instead
of 34?

PLANNING COMMISSION MEETTP�G, FEBRUARY 4, 1981 PAGE 3
Mr. Boardman stated that 34 units is the maximum density Mr. Doty can put in
on �hat property with that zoning.
Ms. Carolyn Johnson, 6336 Star]ite Blvd., stated that Mr, Doty and Mr. Wellner
had indicated they were concerned about their financial losses. She stated
that before they purchased theland, they should have made the agreement to
purchase the land only after it was rezoned to their liking--not to purchase
the land first and then decide they want it rezoned.
Mr. Longerbone, 180 Sylvan Lane, stated there are very few double bungaloes
in the City of Fridley that are decent, and why should their neighborhood be
ruined because Mr. Doty wants to put in double bungaloes?
Ms. Carolyn Johnson stated that Mr. Doty has commented on how beaufifu] his
duplexes are on 5th Street. She stated they are not beautiful, they look
terrible and are not kept up at all. She wished he was in the audience to
he�r that.
Mr. Larson stated one of the big issues brought up at the last Planning Commission
meeting was the opinion that it was not financially feasible to develop this
property into single family homes. He stated he was convinced it was feasible.
He thought the real point Mr. Doty was trying to make was the maximum profit
would be realized by rezoning the property to R-2. He staied their whole purpose,
for being at the Planning Commission in greater numbers this evening (and would
be in even greater numbers at any future meeting) was they feel any incremental
profit that might be realiied by developing this property into double bungaloes
is going to be directly offset by their individua] homes. They feel they have
enough multiple family housing and feel it wou]d be a rea7 burden. They would
appreciate it if this request was rejected at this time.
Mr. Frank Liebl, 222 Mercury Dr., stated he lives a block and a half away from
this property. He stated he could see both sides of the issue. He would like
to point out that they already have quite a few multiple housing units in R-3
whi�h have created traffic problems. If more R-2 or R-3 are put in, it would
just multiply the problem from a traffic standpoint. He stated Mr. Doty and
Mr. Wellner have the right to develop their property, but even an additiona] 14
units are going to increase their traffic problem. If this property is rezoned
R-2 or R-3, he felt it would be detrimental to their neighborhood and would
compound the problem they are facing right now.
Ms. Jan Christenson, 6260 Starlite Blvd., stated that last summer her husband
was granted a special use permit to build a garage with the intention of
building a new home. Right now, as their plans stand, the house wi77 cost
around $130,000. Now they wonder if they should put that house there if these
uni�s are to be built. What wil] be the value Qf that home �wo years from now
if �hose units are built?
Ms. Donna Messer, 114 Satellite Lane, stated.she lives in the second house from
the end on Satellite Lane. She stated she watches the cars use this street as
n a drag s�rip. A couple ofi children always play on the blind corner, and they
just happened to not be playing there one day when a truck drove up into the
neighbor's yard.
-�-�

PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, FEBRUARY 4, 1981 PAGE 4
Ms. Gail Ahrens, 198 Mercury Dr., stated they'haVe suffered around $500-600
worth of damage from cars that come across their ]awn and hit trees. She stated
they are fortunate that the Satellite Apartments are kept up as well as they are.
but this may not always be the case. She stated the apartment owners should be
conunended for the good up-keep of those apartments. She stated if duplexes are
added, the whole neighborhood could go down the drain financially within a
couple of years.
Mr. Liebl stated they are not opposed to Mr. Doty doing something with his
property�, but they have to look at what kind of impact this proposal will have
on this neighborhood. .
Mr. Larson stated that Mr. Doty could come in with plans for the Taj Mahal, and
if it is in an R-2 or R-3 zone, they would be very much against it. He stated
that in the best interests of the Planning Commfssion's time and their time,
they would appreciate it if the Planning Commission would make a decision on
this proposal that evening.
MOTION BY 1�2. WHARTON, SECONDED BY MS. SCHNABEL, TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING
ON ZOA #80-06 BY W. G. DOTY AND GARY A. WELLNER.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRMAN HARRIS DECLA�2ED THE PUBLIC HEARING
CLOSED AT 8:08 P.M.
Ms. Schnabel stated that last time when they heard this proposal, she seconded
and supported a motion to deny this request. She stated she did not have any
reason to change her mind; however, she was a 7itt7e uncomfortable denying it
again in Mr. Doty's and Mr. Wellner's absence. She stated the petitioners have
paid $125 for the rezaning request and $l25 for the vacation request, and she
felt uncomfortable denying them their "day in eourt". She stated she knows the
residents' feelings and she supports those feelings.
Mr. Wharton stated he felt that if the petitioners were that interested in their
$250, they would have been at the meeting.
Mr. Svanda stated he agreed with that and did not have any sympathy for the
�act that the petitioners were not at the meeting.
Mr. Harris stated he also agreed.
Mr. Treuenfels stated he did not see any reason to continue this.item.
Ms. Hughes stated she also did not have any sympathy in terms of the money.
Mr. Doty came before the Planning Commission unprepared and prematurely, but
she did think they owed him a hearing.

WESTERLY HALF OF VACATED ELM STREET, LOCATED SOUTH OF MISSISSIPPI STREET, AND
EAST OF Bt1RLINGTON NORTHERN RIGHT-OF-WAY. THE REASOIN5 FOR DENIAL ARE:
1. THE OVERWHELMING FEELING5 OF THE NEIGHBO.RHOOD AS DEMONSTRATED
BY THE NUMBERS OF PEOPLE AT BOTH PUBLIC HEARINGS AND BY TXE
PETITION THAT WA5 SIGNED BY THE NEIGHBORS; AND
2. THAT MULTIPLE RESIDENTIAL ON THAT PARTICULAR PIECE OF PROPERTY
IS 1110T IN THE BEST INTEREST OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD WITH REGARD TO,
BASICALLY, TRAFFIC AND THE FACT THAT THE NEIGHBORHOOD ALREADY HAS
A R�ITHER HIGH IMPACT OF MULTIPLE DWELLII+IGS IN IT.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRMAN HARRIS DECLARED THE MOTIDN CARRIED
UNAIVIMOUSLY .
Mr. Harris stated that ZOA #80-06 was recommended to City Council for denial.
� Mr. Boardman stated this will be set up for a public hearing at City Council
on Mar. 9, 1981.
2. CONTINUED: VACATION RE UEST, SAV #80-14, BY W. G. DOTY AND GARY A. WELLNER:
Vacate that part of Minnesota Street, as laid out in Lowe Addition to
Fridley Park; or Mercury Drive, as laid out in Sylvan Hil]s Plat �, now
known as Satellite'Lane, ]ying West of the Northerly extension of the West
line of Starlite Blvd., also being the East line of Lot l, Block 4, Sylvan
Hills Plat 3.
Mr. Harris stated this was not a public hearing, but they would conduct it as
an informal public hearing.
Mr. Boardman stated at the end of Satellite Lane, the City has some street
right-of-way. The eventual plan at one time was that Satellite Lane would
cross the railroad tracks. He stated this is not going to happen. The petitioner
has requested vacation primarily because of additional land for development.
At this time, the City has no problem with the vacation. The City is not using
the street right-of-way and aaill not be using�it.
Mr. Michael Larson, 6390 Satellite Lane, stated he is really the only one
affected by this vacation as his lot line adjoins the easement. He has mixed
feelings about it, but he will not oppose the vacation in the hope that he
will see this property developed R-l. If there was any chance it would be
developed R-2 or R-3, he would speak against the vacation.

has not received any objection from the neighborhood.
Mr. Harris stated this was a rather large accessory building, and he would
feel rather uncomfortable approvin� it without talking to the petitioner.

TNE NEXT MEETING AND REQUEST STAFF TO CONTACT 1�2. MILLER AND ASK THAT HE BE

MOTION BY NlI2. SVANDA, SECONDED BY MR. TREUENFELS, TO RECOMMEND TO CITY COUNCIL
APPROVAL OF SPECIAL USE PERMIT,SP #80-13 BY WALTER J. MILLER, WITH THE PROVISION
THAT THIS GARAGE BE USED AS A GARAGE FOR PARKING AND STORAGE AND NOT BE USEIy
FOR A REPAIR SHOP OR ANY BUSTNESS-FOR-PROFIT ENTERPRISE.
Ms. Schnabel stated she could understand Mr. Svanda's feelings. Mer perspective
came from being on the Appeals Commission where they hear these kinds of
requests al� the time. As a regular practice, the Appeals Commission has
always requested that the petitioner appear before them, ihey feel it is not
good policy to routinely approve things because a person fills out an application,
pays his fee, etc. By having the opportunity to speak to the peti.tioner, it
brings out a lot of information that is not contained in the 8 lines of print �
on paper. Even though, on face value, it appears to be a very straightforward
and simple request, they have often found many under7ying reasons and circum-
stances. One important �hing requested by the Appeals Commission which must
be included in the hearing is the hardship of the petitioner--why the petitioner
needs what he is requesting. She stated that in this case, there is no hardship
shown. Why does the petitioner need this building and why should the Zoning Code
be circumvented or altered to permit the construction of this building? For
these reasons, she stated she could not support�the motion to approve the special
use permit. �
Mr. Harris stated he� concurred with Ms. Schnabel.

Ms. Schnabel stated she fe]t the Planning Corrm�ission should be cautious about
these kinds of things. She did not think it was in the City's best interest
to act on things when they do not have the opportunity to speak to the petitioner.
Mr. Harris requested Staff to�ask the petitioner to be at the next meeting.

Addition�, Block 1, Lot 1. This is included in the legal description so they

presently owned by Midwest Printing Company, but they �annot close on the

6. CONTINUED: PUBLIC HEARING: �MENDMENT TO CHAPTER 205 OF THE FRIDLEY CITY
ODE, GENERALLY KNOWN AS THE FRIDLEY ZONING CODE
Mr. Wharton stated the Energy Commission has been reviewing the Zoning Code and
has received some recommendations from Staff for the Energy Commission's
consideration. He�would not like to see this document concluded until the
Energy Commission has passed on their rec�mmendations and comments to the
Planning Commission.
Mr. Boardman stated he would like to get all the Planning Commission's considera-
tions done, so that when they get the Energy Commission's concerns, they can
deal only with those concerns.
The Commission began reviewing the Zoning Code on page 74, C-3 District Regulations.
Mr. Boardman stated that wherever it is stated "on file in the office of the
City Engineer", it should be changed to "on file in the office of the C_it_ Y"
Also, wherever it is stated "by the Zoning Administrator", it should be changed
to "by the Cit�". Mr. Boardman stated that under "Drainage and Grade Require-
ments," #4-A, 'not to exceed four l4) feet" should be deleted.

a motion and they were asking for the Planning �ommission's concurrence on that
motion requesting financial assistance from the City Counci7 to the Citizens'
Advisory Committee to determine a cost estimate for the construction of a
building at the Community Park Site. She stated there was some thought the
assistance could be provided on the staff level, in which case an architect
would not have to be hired.

12. OTHER BUSINESS:
Ms. Schnabel stated she had been reviewing old Planning Commission minutes.
In the June 9, 1980, Special Planning Commission meeting minutes, one of the
questions the Planning Commission had discussed was when should there be public
hearings for public improvements. The Planning Commission did not come up with
any special definitive answers, but they had requested Staff to write a letter
to the Charter Commission asking them to review this. She thought it was
important that the Planning Commission fol]ow up on this as she did hot know
if a letter was written or if the Charter Commission had done anything about it.
She would like Staff to send a follow-up letter to the Charter Commission and
report back to the P]anning Commission.
* * * * * *
Mr. Harris stated he had talked to the City Council at their Jan. 26 conference
�'"� meeting about the Housing Section. The City Council apparently does not share
the Planning Commission's concern about providing the opportunity for affordable
housing in the City of Fridley. They seem to feel they have made a co�enant
with the City to maintain 9,000 sq. ft. lots and maintain the level of affluence
they now enjoy. He stated he isfor promoting reasonable and affordable housing
in the City of Fridley.
Mr. Treuenfels stated he agreed that housing is one of the concerns he also has
for the City of Fridley.
