Councilman Liebl read the following letter and asked that it be put into the minutes• "YOUR HONOR THE MAYOR AND HONORASLE COUNCIL MEMBERS, as you have promised me your honest answer tonight, I am here to remind you what my opinion is now, and always has been. if you believe you are be�ng fair and truly honest in your decis�on in listening to an appointed group that is not interested in this area, and never has been since Fridley was forroed, many people will be shocked. If we are going to get more feeble pramises, I am sure few of us will be listening This is your golden opportunity to show faith in a possible change in this part of Fridley. Of course the people own this part of our town, so the realitors may not get their hands on it first on short notice, but if we drag this out it could be done so they can get involved. If this ever materializes, I believe the small property owners should gaxn, not a total stranger as it usually is the case In my opinion, if some cammittee is dictating to you, then the mice are chasing the elephant, and I am surprised to see this. If the people in this � azea believe I am right, and what I as!z for is right, I w�ll abide by their w�shes. I was informed that you represent the party of free enterprise and self he1p, not federal handouts, only if it is the last resort. My trust and hope is this is slowly crumbling. I am no longer interested'in promises, and I ask for the truth. I am prepared to start my share of our 1oca1 urban renewal plan now, with the initiative of the people in this area at stake, and aC no cost to the taxpayers of Fridley. This group of interested citizens will probably stay in tact if you our elected Council show enough trust to pass this first important step in the right direction This step wi11 noC hinder the balance of the plan proposed if anyone has any intention of following the peoples wishes. I also want to emphasize that I did not pick G 2 zoning at random, I think it should have been mentioned two weeks ago that item (G) under C-2 puts my present business in this particular zoning group I do not want the people of Fridley to believe I am doing something wrong in asking for G 2 zoning as indicated by the Fridley Sun in an article two weeks ago. At the last council meeting the Chairman of the planning Commission stated that if these lots were zoned commercial that it would force the Council to do the same a block or two away. I would like to remind Chis council this was done on Che same side of IIniversity Avenue on the same street just two blocks away when Holiday strip-zoned University and 57th Avenue N E two years ago. Mr. Jensen stated if my lots were zoned C-2 the same would have to be done � Q� R REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING, APRIL 1, 1968 PAGE 3 ' across the street. I would like to remind this council, across Universrty Avenue from me is zoned G2 and I am asking only for the same consideration I have bought the lots where my building is on as commercial property, and I — always used these lots as commercial I am a firm believer in doing what is right and this happens to be so and not only in my opinion. In following the recomendations of Mr Virgil Herrick, the City Attorney, I have asked for this request and a correction in zoning of my property at this t1me, so you are not making any ma�or decisions Mr. Mayor, Gentlemen of this Council, I ask you for a final answer, to eiTher grant or deny my request based on its merits." Sincerely, /S/ Eldon Schmedeke Councrlman Liebl said that when Mayor Kirkham had been elected two years ago, he had said that the initiative of the people could do what Urban Renewal was supposed to do. He said that if the Council would have granted this partial rezoning, the people would have worked wzth the Council to make a nice area in the 3rd Ward He said he regretted to say that the Council has not helped him in any way. Mayor Kirkham said that his philosophy kas not changed, and he is stx11 for free enterprise and in favor of the people contr�lling their property, He said that his interest in asking Mr. Schmedeke to wait was solely to � protect Mr Schmedeke as well as the rest of the community, because granting a partial rezoning can create some problems. He said that all he asked for was a delay long enough for the City staff to work out some of — the problems and to prevent any errors from being perpetrated, if not to Mr. Sctunedeke, then to someene else. �1 CITY MANAGER'S REpORT REGARDING FUNDING OF LOOPBACKS: MOTION by Councilman Samuelson to adopt Resolution ��45-1968 Seconded by Councilman Harris, Upon a doice vote, there being no nays, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried. Councilman Harris said he had read the memo from the City Manager and said that he may have misinterpreted Lt, but he believed there would be some cases which would not be covered by the memo, and he would lxke to see it broken down further to apply directly to the existing intersections currently under pxoject study, MOTION by Councilman Harris to rece�ve the memorandum from the City Manager regarding funding of loopbacks, but not set it as Council policy at this time. Seconded by Councilman Sheridan Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, Maqor Kirkham declared the motion declared unanimously. �The City Manager said that his memo covers the general situation, but it � can be made more specific, and broken down by intersections Councilman � � REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING, APRIL 1, 1968 PAGE 4 Harris said he would like the people to know that if this is'delayed, f't�will ' not slow down the contracts that have been let The City Engineer said that this will in no way slow down the loop at Mississippi Street and Mississippi Place. Councilman Liebl asked the City Attorney if it can be assessed to the property owner The City Attorney said it can be done if there is additional value to the property, which is a decision the Council wi11 ultimately have to make The City Manager said that this would go to the bonding attorney for review, and he would check this very thoroughly He said that the recommendation would try to make the minimum impact on the property owner. Councilman Sheridan said it was his understanding that any policy set would be the overall policy on loopbacks for the entire community. Mayor Kirkham said that the policy would have to be uniform and keep the cost to a bare minimum for the property owners DISCUSSION OF LIQUOR STUDY: Mayor Kirkham said that the members of the Liquor Study Committee had been invited to attend the Council Meeting, but when they had been polled, several of the members had other committments, and the Chairmaa had asked that the Committee be excused from attending the meeting. Mayor Kirkham said that the item is still on the agenda because Councilman Sheridan has indicated he has something to say on this sub�ect. Councilman Sheridan said he has received considerable coimnents regarding � the Liquor Study and would like to make a statement befora handing out a resolution he would like the Council to consider. He reviewed the dates that the report was authorized, the date the Council received it, the date the committee was appointed and the extended date at which the Committee was to return their evaluation. He said that the calls he has been receiving have been on 6oth sides of the issue, and from some that have not made up theix minds, but they have been accusing him and the Council of shelving something and not making it readily available to the public He said he is proposing that the Council either accept the report, pay the accounting firm and make it public record or re�ect the report and return it and the balance due to the firm, and possibl�[ instruct the City Attorney- to begin action to retrleve the $1200 already expended. Councilman Sheridan handed out the resolutzon he wanted the Council to review and read it out loud to the public. MOTION by Councilman Sheridan to adopt Resolution ��46-1968. Seconded by_ Councilman Liebl. Mayor Kixkham pointed out that no effart has beAn made to hide the report, that copies of it are out, and the date for returning their evaluation was a � suggested date to get them to appreciate some concern as to timing Councilman Sheridan said that after talking Co one Committee member, the committee had met only twLCe. Once with representatives_of the authors of the study and a second meeting at which sub-committees �aere set up � C.� � REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING, APRIL 1, 1968 Councilman Liebl made the following statement PAGE 5 "Mr Mayor, you said at the regular Council meeting of March 18th, that you had given the chairman of the Evaluation Committee, Mr Langer no other authority except to evaluate the Horwath & HorwaCh report with the help of the *�hole committee On March Sth at one of the committee sessions, Mr Langer decided to split the group in three subcommittee s and make his own Liquor Study on his own initiative, he also stated that he had discussed iL with you the Mayor and had your approval and if anyone of the committee members did not wish to go along with him could resign anvtime You never mentioned one word of this to the whole Council except Lhe last Item of the March 18th Council session was a letter from Mr Langer dated March 15th asking us the Council if we would not ob�ect to a Liquor Study of his own initiative Haw many Liquor studies does the Council private Liquor clique want done in two years� Cons�der the employees who have had to live under this harrassment for two years not knowing from one day to the next whether they have to conslder other employenent Some of them after long years of faithful and conscientious service to the City of F'ridley Our Liquor stores manager is a competent out- standing man and the employees do an excellent �ob I strongly protest your attitude and sudden urgency to give up this operation These employees have to date, earned the people of Fridley $1,517,165 91 profit, and so have helped maintain this administration and previous ones balanced budget. What would we have done without the liquor income? net a You gentlemen want to get rid of our Municipal operation regardless what it wzll do to the taxpayers and to the city^s socxal and moral climate I will under no circumstances be any part of this I£ the Horwath & Horwath report does not merit an eva],uation in the oninion of the committee,tkten let them state so, hut with the�r signatures attacheci, to their findings This committee was not originally appointed to make any recommendation concern- ing MunLCipal or Private Liquor (that is what we paid Horwath to do) but to ev8.lu��e the recommendations contained in the Horwath report I have a letter here which proves to me and the people of Fridley thaC you are trying Mr Mayor your best to whitewash this expensive report whzch you recommended and now are not man enough to admit Private Liquor will breed corruption and pay-offs in our city in my opinion and in the opinion of many of our citizens I am asking for an EVALUATION of this committee in regard to the Horwath report not another Mayors Liquor study "(End of Councilman Liebl°s statement) Councilman Liebl read a letter written to him by Mr O.M. B�erkesett, a member of the committee, regarding the format�on of the three subcommittees and his ob�ection to rt REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING, APRIL l, 1968 PAGE 6 Mr Ole B�erkesett, Mr Dick Donlin, and Mr Wilbur Whitmore, each a member ' of the su6committees that had been appointed were present at the meeting Mr. Donlin said that somewhexe along the line everyone was getting involved in persona�ities and politics. He said he did not remember Mr, B�erkesett`s strong opposition to forming the subcommittees He said 6hat some of the Committee Members felt there were some figures in the report which were incorrect although they had followed these figures, He said that the sub- committee met two or three times. Mr. B�erkesett said that Zn a telephone conversation with the Chairman, Mr. Langer, he had refreshed Mr. Langer's memory, and he remembered that Mr. B�erkesett had ob�ected to what the Chaixman was doing. Councilman Sheridan said that his resolution was not directed at any personalities, but was a case where he felt the report should be accepted or re�ected by the Council within a certain time period. Councilman Harris asked Councilman Sheridan if he had discussed this with any members of the Committee, and if April 15th would give them enough time to finalize their report, Councilman Sheridan said he felt there should be a definite date named. Councilman Harris asked the three members of the committee present if they thought their evaluation could be concluded by April 15th The committee members felt they could be ready with an evaluation of the contents of the Horwath & Horcvath report, but they did not feel they should answer for the rest of the m�ubers on the committee. Mayor Kirkham said he would like to answer some of the charges Councilman � Liebl has made Mayor Kirkham said Yhey were something about whitewashing, delaying action, and that sort of thing,and about Councilman Lieb1 ' representing the people of Fridley. Mayor Kirkham said that he represented i- the same people, and a certain percentage of the people have come to him frequently to suggest that Fridley reconsider the position on Municipal Liquor, and in fairness to this segment of the population, he said in his mind it was only proper that the Council agreed to go at this from a business like standpoint and hire a study made. He said that he made the suggestion to the committee that this pattern be followed. Mayor Kirkham said that Councilman Liebl had made Che motion that the Horwath and Horwath firm be hired. He said the firm did not make a promise when the study would be back, but would try to have it back as soon as possible. He said they � had never made a study exactly like this before, and they were not certain what would be entailed, He said that it took longer then they and the'eouncil had hoped for, but there was not much to gain by pushing them and asking them to cut the study short, once it was started. Mayor Kirkham said Yhat after the report had been received, it seemed only proper to add more heads, and he formed a committee, and asked each Councilman to appoint someone on it. He said that he was accused of appointing people who had made up their minds and were pre�udiced, He asked which of the people he had appointed were pre�udiced, the two ministers, or the �udge, or who. He said that the man appointed by Councilman Liebl was an employee of the liquor store Mayor Kirkham said he took offense at Councllman Lieh1's accusations about someone lining their pockets He said he did not care if someone gets a , drink in Fridley. Mayor Kirkham said that these accusations are mean, personal and political, and if Councilman Liebl wants to campaign he should hire a hall or get a soap box He said it was not fair for him to take advantage of a captive audience. REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING, APRIL 1, 1968 PAGE 7 � Mayor Kirkham said there are two things to be decided, whether this commumty wants private liquor and if they want it, how can it be done economically, and if it costs more money, is it worth it7 He said that he wanted the people to decide, and they have to decide on the facts and not on facts that are slanted, and for this reason he wanted a composite oi some different viewpoints, which was the reason for the different members he had appointed to the committee. Two Ministers, a Sudge, Attorney, member of the Police Civil Service Cottunission, and the President of the Chamber oi Cammerce Mayor Kirkham said he did not feel the Council should dictate April 15th, Uut should ask the Committee when the earliest date would be that they would be ready. $e said that he thinks the City should accept the reporL It was contracted for and should be paid for, whether it is liked or not, Councilman Liehl said that if he sees the signature of the 2 ministers, Chamber of Commerce president and of a11 the other committee members on the evaluation regarding the contents of the Horwath & Horwath report, he will beiieve it Councilman Harris said he had no ob�ection to the resolution and will vote for it but he questioned the date and asked Councilman Sheridan if he would ob�ect to asking the Coimnittee when they could be done, as long as they are meeting on Tuesday evening. Councilman Sheridan said that if the seconder of the motion agreed, he would change the date in the Resolution from April 15, 1968 to May 1, 1968, which will give the Committee 30 days from today Counc�lman Liebl as the seconder � concurred.
