FIRST READING OF AN ORDINANCE FOR REZONING REQUEST (ZOA #69-11) AND CONSIDERATION OF SPECIAL USE PERMIT (SP #69-01), BURLINGTON NORTHERN: Mayor Kirkham read the Ordinance aloud for the Council and the audience. The City Engineer said that items "n" and "q" are the areas of the proposal by the railroad that show substantial change in that submitted by the City. He explained that the first pages in the Agenda are the petition submitted by the City and the last petition is that of Surlington Northern. Councilman Liebl said that he noticed that the changes are mainly in Items "g", "n" and "q". He said that he would like to say as the Third Ward Councilman that � he would be hesitant to give such broad authorization in regard to Item "n". He said that he would like to have a more sol�.d commrtment to protect �he City of Fridley. He pointed out that the City does not have much industrial land left available, and he is very anxious to qet every parcel of industrial land onto the tax xolls. The way that Bux'lington Northern has this item worded would not give the City any assurance that this would ever happen. He said that he would strongly urge a further commitment by Burlington Northern. LJ Mr. Russel Thompson, Assistant Director, Construction Pro�ects for $uriington Northern, asked if they were able to make an access from the East River Road side, would this be a sufficient inducement? He pointed out that Burlington Northern is going to be making a sizeable investment in the area. He said that the actual railroad operation would not extend more than about 150 feet, and the other area should be available for the other structure. 1-Ie did not feel that this would be too much of a deterrent. He said that they were looking at other possibilities, but this is the most feasible location as it would provide for quick movement of cars. He then went to the screen and pointed out the area in question. He said that traffic could be diverted to East River Road. The overpass over 43rd Avenue would take care of much of the traffic. He said that they were not planning the T.O.E•C. area for about three years unless given the authority to do so now. He said that he could not say that this industrial land could ever be put on the tax roll�, they may wnat to use it. If a reduction could be made in certain areas, maybe some land could be made available to industry. Councilman Liebl said that it would take about 300 feet in depth to get any industxy in there. xe said that he would like somthing more specific in this regard. Mr. Thompson said that they felt that if they gave any more land, the property would not be operable. Council- man Liebl asked if he was not saping then that they will eventually be going into a T.O.F.C. Mr. Thompson said that he was not sure, that they would still be looking for alternate locations. He pointed out that the Council would still have control. Councilman Liebl asked the'City Attorney if a bond would not give the City more protection. Mr. Wyman Smith, City Attorney in Leonard .7uster's absence, �d� REGULAR COUNCIL MECTING OF APRIL 20, 1970 PAGE 3 said yes, a bond would give the City more protection. A representative of � Burlington Northern asked 7ust what kind of a bond. Councilman Liebl said that he would like more assurance that the industrial property will eventually be on the tax ro11s. I£ this is the case, he would be willing to vote for it. The bond would give the City the assurance that eventually the property would be used for industry, rather than a piggy back yard. He said that if the City had a lot of industrial land left, they could afford to be more generous, but every piece of land must work for the City. Mr. Thompson pointed out that the railroad is developing other land industrial within the City of Fridley, and commented that the development of the railroad yard makes other areas in Fridley attractive to industry because of the convenience of the railway. With this thinking the T.O.F.C. would make rt a benefit to industrial development. Mayor Kirkham said that he was afraid that the suggestion as to the traffic would not be satisfactory. The traffic is already bad on East River Road, and he did not think anything would be solved by putting more traffic onto East River Road. Mr. Carl Paulson suggested the use of other submarginal land along the railroad tracks. Mr. Thompson said that they did not want to locate any further out of town because of the higher operating costs. If any more cost were added, it would make it impractical. Councilman Sheridan said that a change in the wording of the paragraph would satis£y him. He said that if it were to read as follows: "Petitioner agrees to make this property in parcel 1200, legally described as Lots 2 and 3, Auditor's � Subdivision #78, available to industrial development", and take out the phrase. "an exhaustive study of alternative locations £or the proposed T.O.F.C. facility in an attempt to make the---", then it would be acceptable. If the Council were to accept it as it reads now, they would probably be accepting a T.O.F.C. in this location. He asked what if the "exhaustive study of alternate locations" is not fruitful. A Representative of Burlington Northern said that he felt that the Council is not committing themselves to anything. They would still retain the right to act on any future T.O.F.C. at this yard. Councilman Sheridan said that even if the Council refused a special use permrt for the T.O.F.C. there would be no guarantee that industrial business would then go in there. The rail- road could hold this property forever. Councilman Lieb1 asked if they would be willing to go along with Item "n" as Councilman Sheridan stated. Mr. Thompson said that this puts them in the same position as with the petition the City wrote He felt very strongly that this should not be part of the conditions, but the Council feels that it should. This puts them in exactly opposite corners. He said that he was not in the position to approve of this petition as Councilman Sheridan suggested, but that it would have to go to a higher office. Councilman Liebl asked about Item "q". He said that he understood that Burlington Northern would be willing to bear the full cost of the shoo fly and 10% of the remaining cost of the pro�ect within the right of way limits, not including the shoo fly. Mr Thompson said yes, the shoo f1y would not be considered part of the cost of the pro�ect. Councilman Breider asked the cost differential between � what the City proposes and what Burlington Northern proposes. The City Engineer said that the difference is about $60,D00 Their estimate is $215,000 and the City's proposal is $275,000. Councilman Breider asked what is the main ob�ection to the small amount of additional cost. Mr. Thompson said the money. The estimate for their pro�ect was about $24,000,000 before the Mississippi Street �''� � REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF APRIL 20, 1970 PAGE 4 � underpass came up. In addition to this some Minneapolis water lines have to be relocated. Every time something comes up, it invalves more money. He felt that they were more than meeting their commitment with the City of Fridley. Councilman Breider asked about Item "p" in the petition. He asked what was meant by "exoessive". Mx. Thompson said that if the haul had to be hauled 7 or 8 miles and amounted to a large quantity, you could be talking about $75,000 to $100,000. IIe said that they would want to get together befare hauling if it was for some distance, and for a large amount. Councilman Breider asked if he could establish a mile radius. Mr. Thompson said that first you would have to find out where to waste the material. It may be possible to put it in an industrial area to build it up. They tried to find out where this land is and it appears that it may be 7 or 8 miles. This would seem excessive. They had in mind somewhere along East River Road that could be gotten to easily. He said that they would not want to do too much hauling through residential neighborhoods. There would have to be some sort of a determination on where the fill would be going. He did not think that this was an important part of the petition. At the time it was brought up it was not considered of great importance. Councilman Breider asked what the cost could amount to. The City Engineer said that there are charges different ways. It could be a lump sum for a �ob, or it could be so much per mile. It could be about 10C to 15t per cubic yard per mile wrth something additional for loading and maybe more depending on where a.t is to be hauled. Councilman Breider said that he was concerned about the word "excessive". There are no established rates, and the original proposal was for getting the fill at first option at no charge. He asked � if they would be willing to work with the City's stipulation rather than theirs. Mr. Thompson said that this is another one way street, and the Council has the control. There is no way of knowing how many yards we are speaking of, nor how £ar it is to be hauled. If there was three million yards, they would not want to haul it too far Shis could become very costly. He said that their thinking was that they could handle this material for the Crty within a decent distance, the contrac- tor would then have to be made aware of how much and how far. Councilman Liebl said that he was very appreczative of the cooperation Burlington Northern has shown with the Crty of Fridley Council and the Planning Commission He said that this was very commendable. He said that he did not want any mis- understanding, but he would certainly like their agreement on Item "n". He said that they could always come back in the future and request what they want, and the City would have the assurance, if some industry would want to develop the land that it was not tied up, and could become a tax advantage to the City. He said that there seemed to be compromises in other areas successfully. He said that this has nothing to do with the request at this time. Mr Thompson agreed that the T.O.F.C. is not part of this request, and suggested that the first reading could be held on the Ordinance and they will try to get Item "n" changed before the second reading He said that this will be checked out with the higher office. Council- man Liebl said that Councilman Harris was very insistant on this point in their discussions. MOTION by Councilman Liebl to approve the Ordinance on £irst reading, and the petition with the cha�nged wording as follows= "n": Petitioner agrees to make 1 this property in parcel 1200, legally described as Lots 2 and 3, Auditor's Sub- division #78, available to industrial development", and "p": The City will be granted first option on any excess material available from said construction to be dumped witha.n the City of Fridley at the direction of the Engineer of the City of Fridley at no charge, as agreed upon 6y the City Engineer and Burlinqton Northern". Seconded by Councilman Sheridan. Upon a roll call vote, Liebl, Breider, Sheridan and Kirkham voting aye, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried �� RF.GULAR COUNCIL ME�TING OF APRIL 20� 1970 PAGE 5 CONSIDERATION OF SHOREWOOD PLAT AND VACATION REQUEST MAX SALITERN�N� AND D25- CUSSION REGARDING DELAY OF INSTALLSNG BRICK ON SEARS STORE: MOTION by Councilman Sheridan to 1ay this rtem over until Mr. Saliterman or his representative can be present at a Council Meeting.

RIEDEL• Counczlman Sheridan said that he would like to have this item lazd over for a full Council. He said that he has been out of town and just picked up his Agenda this Noon and would appreciate an opportunity to read the Planning Commission and the Council Minutes. Councilman Liebl said that before the item is tabled he would like to make a request of the Administration. He said that he would like to have the infor- mation on how much in special assessments there has been against the Rieclel property for the improvement of Mississippi Street, 5th Street, 7th Street and 63rd Avenue. He said that he would like to know how much they have paid in an effort to get a thorough and clear picture of the history of the property.

The Council agreed that this item is to be brought back on May 18, 1970. FIRST R�ADING OF AIQ ORDINANCE FOR REZONING REQUEST (ZOA #70-02) TO REZONE FROM C-1 TO C-2� GENERALLY LOCP.TED IN TH� NORTHWEST CORNER OF 73RD AVENUE AND UNIVERSITY AVENUE AND REQUEST FOR SPECIAL USE PERMIT BY STEVE CODDON: Councilman Breider asked how the special use permit should be handled. The City Cngineer said that this was brought to the Council's attention now, but the special use permit could be approved on the second reada.ng of the rezoning ordinance. Councilman Breider asked if the plans would not still have to go to the Building Standards - Design Control Subcommittee and the City Engineer said yes, then to the Council. This is for a car wash with gas pumps. MOTION by Councilman Breider to approve the Ordinance on first reading and waive the reading. Seconded by Councilman Liebl.

Upon a roll call vote, Kirkham, Liebl, Breider, and Sheridan voting aye, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried. DISCUSSION OF MEMO BY CITY ATTORNEY JUSTER ON HXDE PARK IMPROVEMENT AND PAGE 6 Mayor Kirkham reported that Councilman Harris has asked that there be no action on this item tonight, as he is sick and could not make the Meeting. As Mr. Leonard Juster is not here either, it would be in order to table to May 4, 1970 MOTION by Councilman Liebl to receive the memoxandum £rom Nlr. Leonard T. Juster, City Attorney, dated Apxil 16, 1970, and open_this item for discussion. Councilman Liebl said that the opinion rendered by the City Attorney is self explanatory, very unbiased and honest. He said that he would like to say as Councilman of this Ward at this time, that he felt that it would not be 7ustifiable to rescind the resolution for the improvement of the slip-off. The property should be rezoned as was approved on the first reading on November 3, 1969 by four votes of the Council. This has been discussed over the past two years to develop plans for this area, and as you all know the plan was to develop the area between 57th Avenue and 60th Avenue as commercial and west of 2'� Street as R-3. � This was in order to clean up the area and develop the area as a sound and responsible commercial establishment. He reported that he has received over 200 telephone calls in the past urging the Council to continue to fight for the ma7orrty of the people. Some members of the Council were derelict in not voting af£irmative at the second reading. He said that he has tried conscientiously to clear up this area and get a tax structure in, and has been striving for a better community. He said that he would like to hear from the people in the audience in support of his stand. He said that he had worked hard and had thought that he had the support of the two at-large members. He still felt that the best way to proceed would be in the manner laid out by the City Manager. He asked for comments from the audience and there was applause. Councilman Liebl continued that he did not know why the two members o£ the Council voted as they did, but he would urge a change in vote to get a progressive and positive approach to the development of the area. He said that the Council was told that some of the people have hired an attorney to bring this item to the court and he would like to hear tonight if this is true. He pointed out that there was money wasted on the planner and the plan adopted was drawn up by the City's hard worka.ng, capable City Manager. I-Ie urged the Council to listen to the people. THE MOTION was seconded by Councilman Sheridan. Opon a voice vote, all votinq aye, Mayar Kirkham declared the motion carried. Mr. Andrew Kohlan, Attorney, said that to keep the record straight, there was a meeting with some of the people of the area and some 17 property owners are willing to participate in legal action. They a11 have two or more parcels of land. There � is no alternata.ve to instituting legal proceedings unless there is some reaction by the Council. Mx. Carl Paulson questioned whether this would not be a good area for a motor sales company. This would take up a good deal of land and there would be no children to attend school. The people could keep their prices high and get their money out of theix investment. Mayor Kirkham saici that he knew of no ob�ection by the '� �� REGULAR COONCIL M�ETING OF APRIL 20, 1970 PAGE 7 Council to a new car agency. The Council has been active in seeking such an � agency. There was one contacted that was extremely interested, but their franchise insisted that it should be east of T.H. #65. Mr. Paulson commented that the area should not have been developed as it is, but that is hind sight. He said that he could see no reason why this rezoning should not go through, it has been going on for two years. Councilman Liebl said that Councilmen Breider, Sheridan or himsel£ were not in a posation to bring thzs Ordinance back for a revote, as they were on the losing side and according to Roberts Rules of Order, an item has to be brought back for reconsideration by the winning side. Mayor Kirkham added that it would take a motion by Councilman Harris to put it on the Agenda May 4th, and he is sick toniqht. He said that as with the Council's past policy, they should honor Councilman Harris' wish and not discuss this tonight. The report has been received and can be studied for the next meeting. This item will be brought back May 4th and at that time a decision can be made. MOTION by Councilman Sheridan to table this item to the Meeting of May 4, 1970. Mrs. Marvin O'Berg asked if the slip-off assessment was still on the books, as long as the rezoning was voted down. Mayor Kirkham said according to the City Attorney's memorandum, yes. NLrs. O'Berg asked if the costs given to the people were last year's costs, and would they nat be more this year� The City Engineer said yes, they were last year's costs, and would probably be higher this year. Mr. Ken Strand wondered why, since the rezoning was voted down, the assessment will � go over to 2'� Street. They are not adjacent to it, and should not be included. Councilman Liebl said that the proposal was approved on the fixst reading but voted down on the second. The assessment had to be over that area of commercial included in the rezoning, although it is not commercial now. He said that now the people are threatening the Council with court action. He felt that if it went to District Court, the Council action would be overturned. Mr. Strand said that they are not in a commercial area now, so why should they be assessed. Mayor Kirkham said that if it were to be rezoned, this would �ustify the assessment. Now that the rezoning may not qo in the Council would have to reconsidex the assessment area. Mr. Andrew Kohlan asked Mr. Strand if it was not true that he no longer lives there. P1r. Strand said that this was true, but he still lives in the Third Ward and has money invested in there, and is interested in the area. Mrs. O'Berg said that she no longer ownec� her property either, but she had 1; times the estimate in escrow. She said that she has already paid for this assessment. This is quite a bit of money whether she lives there or not. She would like to have the assessment taken off so that she could use the money to better advantage, or else go ahead and put in the improvement. Mayor Kirkham said that he could understand her plight and that a determination will be made soon. Mr. Muggli, of Muggli Manufacturing Company, said that there seemed to be some confusion. He understood that there could not be assessments at this time. Mayor F.irkham told him that they were pending assessments. Mr. Muggli said that � they were talking about something that may never come about. Ae said that if the Minutes were checked, they would find that the slip-of£ was talked about to serve the new rezoned area. He asked why talk of putting in the slip-off to serve a residential area. Mayor Kirkham said that as the rezoning failed, it was assumed that the improvement would not be put in. The ruling was that the slip-off resolution still stands. Mr. Muggli said that there would be no benefa.t, and , � REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF APRIL 20, 1970 PAG� 8 M�., `� Mayor Kirkham agreed. Councilman Lieb1 said that they could be sure that if the Council did not reconsider the rezoning, and if thc court did not over-rule the Council, then he did not think there would be any assessments levied if there is no benefit. He said that the people indicated by about a 90o ma�ority their wishes and he has tried to serve them and the community. He said that he has tried to convince Mayor Kirkham and Couneilman Harxis that there should be a reconsideratian of the second reading so that the project can proceed. Councilman Sheridan called for a second to his motion. THE MOTION was seconded by Councilman Liebl. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried. Mrs. O'Berg asked i£ this is going to the courts, could not the resolution be rescinded, at least temporarily. If it is needed later, it could be done with the rezoning. If this goes to court, rt may take some time. Mayor Kirham said that if the rezoning goes in, the 51ip-off will be needed. He said that Council- man Harris and himself would like letters letting them know the peoples wishes in this matter This would help them to make their decision. Mr. Muggli said that Mayor Kirkham has called for letters, but does not the attendance o£ the people mean that they are in favor of the proposal? �ust bec�use a person fails to write a letter does not mean that he is not in favor of the rezoning. Mr. Eldon Schmedeke pointed out that there were petrtions signed by a number of people favoring the rezoning. The people in favor of the rezoning were asked to stand and approximately 30 to 40 people rose. Mayor Kirkham said that he was always concerned with the wishes of the people. He said Councilman Lieb1 men- tioned that he received about 200 telephone calls but he pointed out that he also receives telephone calls and letters. He commented that people do change their minds after signing a petition and in sprte of everything, if the people sti11 want this change to please let him know. He added that he had gotten the message from the people tonight. CONSIDERATIQN OF REMAINING APPOINTMENTS TO COMMITTEES AND COMMISSIONS: Plats and Subdivisions - Streets and Utilities Subcommittee Councilman Sheridan said that he did not have a name to present tonight, but that he would try to have one for the next meeting. Human Relations Committee Mayor Kirkham said that he would submit the name of Mrs. Domingo Ramos, 6340 Quincy Street N.E. for the vacancy of Robert Hynes, and Mrs. Ernest Slock, 71 Rice Creek Way for the vacancy of David Cook. He said that he did not have a replacement for ponald Satterson as yet. MOTION by Councilman Sheridan to concur with the appointment of Mrs. Domingo Ramos and Mrs- Ernest Block to the Human Relations Committee. Seconded by Council- man LiebL Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion � carra.ed. CONSIDERATION OF AUTHORIZING THE SALE OF SPECIAL ASSESSNLNT AND WATER IMPROVF.M�NT BONDS: (MR. EHLERS) Mr. Robert Ehlers reported that there are some changes to the report that the Counci]..has received The figure of $1,770,000 for local improvement should be �� i REGULAR COUNCIL M�ETING OF APRIL 20� 1970 PAGE 9 changed to $1,330,000 and the water works improvement figure should be changed from $325,000 to $460,000. This will change the maturaty-schedule. He said that he would recommend that the City now try to raise their bond rating from BAA to A. The City has been constantly improving and he felt that there would be a good chance to get the A rating. He said that there is now a$6�0 fee charged by Moodys Investment Service for this examination, but he felt that it would be worth the money. In connection with this rt may be necessary for some of the City personnel to go to New York in May. The written report may be enough to get the A rating, but if not, a personal appearance helps a great deal. He commented that the Finance Director has been doing a fine �ob with the internal financial funding. He recommended that the Council authorize the sale of the $1,330,000 and the $460,000 bonds. This is not creating a new debt, �ust re-funding, and there would be no taxes involved. He suggested June lst as the date for selling the bonds. Councilman Sheridan agreed wrth the idea of trying foz an A rating. This would be a definite advantage to the City. Mr. Ehlers-said that he was very proud of the way the City of Fridley does things. There has been a lot of planning and building and recovery work since the tornado. He hoped that they would be successful. Councilman Sheridan said that he felt that this would be money well spent He urged that the Council authorize the expendrture of the $600 for the new rating and also the expenditure for City personnel and a Councilman if necessary to go to New York to make a personal appearance. He said that this was done in 1965 and it seemed to help. Councilman Liebl said that with the increased industrial development the City has had, he felt that the City had an excellent chance for a higher rating. Mr. Ehlers said that if the BAA rating could be changed to an A rating, the interest rate should go down about 2/10 to 1/4 percent. MOTION by Councilman Sheridan to authorize the expenditure of $600 for the examination by Moody Investment 5ervice, and also the expenditure of money to allow Fridley personnel to go to New York to assist Mr. Ehlers in trying to obtain the higher bond rating. Seconded by Councilman Breider. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried. Mayor Kirkham commented that he would like to express his confidence in Mr. Ehlers and he felt that the City was most fortunate to have a man of his experience handling their fiscal matters. TION #78-1970 - RESOLUTION PROVIDING FOR-THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF 000 SPECIAL ASSESSMENT FOND BONDS: MOTION by Councilman Sheridan to adopt Resolution #78-1970 and set the date of sale for Sune l, 1970. Seconded by Councilman Liebl. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried. RESOLUTION #79-1970 - RESOLUTION PROVIDING FOR THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF 5460.000 WATER WORKS BONDS: MOTION by Councilman Sheridan to adopt Resolution #79-1970 and set the date of sale for June 1, 1970. Seconded by Councilman Breider. Upon a voice vote, a11 voting aye, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried. Mr. Ehlers said that if it should prove necessary to go to New York, it will be very short notice and he felt that it would be essential for the Finance Director and the City Manager to go and perhaps Mayor Kirkham also. Councilman Sheridan said that the Finance Director and the City Manager should be on call to go, and commented that if Mayor Kirkham should be unable to go, perhaps another Councilman could attend. ' � � REGULAR COUNCIL MEETZNG OF APRIL 20, 1970 �i f � t� PAGE 10 � FIRST READING OF AN ORIl2NANCE AMENDING TE3E CITY COD� BY PROVIDING SECTION 2.05 THEREIN AND PROVIDING FOR THE APPOINTMENT OF A DEPUTY CITY CLERK; The Finance Director said that this would be mostly for signing wage assignments, certifying Minutes and administering oaths etc. in his absence. Councilman Liebl asked if this would take an Ordinance or would a resolution su£fice. The City Manager said that an Ordinance would make the position continuous. It does not name anyone to the position. MOTION by Councilman Liebl to approve the Ordinance on first reading and waive the reading. Seconded by Councilman Sheridan. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried. RESOLUTION #80-1970 - RESOLUTION PROVIDING FOR THE APPOINTMENT OF THE FINANCE DIRECTOR AS ASSISTANT TO THE CITY MANAGER AND PRESCRIBING HIS DUTIES: The C1ty Manager suggested that this be by Resolution rather than by Ordinance, and to make the appointment of Marvin Brunsell by name. An Ordinance would make a perpetual position, and future Councils may not want it done this way. Council- man Liebl said that this was to authorize Marvin Brunsell to act in the City Manager's absence. MOTION by Councilman Liebl to adopt Resolution #80-1970 and order it to be brought back for ratification at the next Regular Meeting Seconded by Councilman � Sheridan.

CONSIDERATION OF A REQUEST TO SUBMIT MODSFICATION OF FRONT ELEV'ATION OF WAREHOUS� IN COMMERCE PARK (ON AGENDA AT REQUEST OF SACK JARRARD OF BALCO BUILDERS FOR MOGOL CORPORATION): � The City Engineer reported that the petitioners wished to withdraw their request. CONSIDERATION OF REQUEST FOR PERMIT FOR DOUBLE BUNGALOWS IN HYDE PARK: Councilman La.ebl observed that the petitioners were here preva.ously when Hyde Park was discussed. He said that he would appreciate it if they could wait a few weeks until the Hyde Park issue is discussed again. He felt that it would be irresponsible to grant a building permit if in a few years it would have to be torn down to make way for a commercial development. Counc�.lman Sheridan commented that as the Hyde Park discussion was laid over because of not having a full Council, this item should be also, until something is settled in regard to Hyde Park. He said that he could not vote in favor of granting a permit at this time. MOTION by Councilman Sheridan to lay this item over to the Meeting of May 4, 1970. The motion was seconded and upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried CONSIDERATION OF A REQUEST FOR A RADIATOR REPAIR SI-IOP IN THE REAR OF 990 OSBORNE ROAD (GORDON SWENSON): Mr. Gordon Swenson said that this is on the Nagel property behind the antique shop. The repaa.ring would be only on radiators brought in to him and he would not be takinq them out of cars, so there would be no cars standing around. This would be a good clean business. �r u lJ REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF APRIL 20, 1970 PAGE 11 Councilman Sheridan asked if this would be a special use permrt. The City Engineer said that normally if this was a new building, the requirement would be M-1 zoning In this case since it is a temporary type of business he suggested that a temporary permit be issued to be renewable every year. In this way the Council could revoke it or add in conditions if it proves to be unsatisfactory. He said that he understood that Mr. Swenson is having difficulty in financing his development. There are no Code requirements to cover this type o.f operation. Councilman Liebl said that if it is based on yearly renewal, he would have no ob�ection. Councilman Breider asked about the access, and if it would be off Osborne Road. Mr. Swenson said yes, right by the antique shop. The City Engineer then showed the property on the plat map. He said that the property has been rezoned and when the financing is available, Mr. Swenson plans on cleaning up the area and building a new building. MOTION by Councilman Breider to grant the permit on the condition that it is renewed every year. Seconded by Councilman Liebl. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried. RECEIVING THE MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OF APRIL 8� 1970. 1. LOT SPLIT REQUEST: L.S. #70-03, CLARENCE FOSSE: Lot 20, Auditor's Subdivision #129. To split for residential site. Represented by Maynard Sieve of Appolo Realty. The City Enga.neer explained that this is a parcel 140' X 150' and the request is to split it into two equal lots. The Planning Commission Minutes note that there is a variance needed also because the house would be only 7� feet from the new lot split line. He said that also the Council should be aware that this is old platted property on 73rd Avenue east of Central Avenue, and the frontage would be 70' rather than 75' creating two parcels 70' X 150'. This would meet the area requirement. Planning Commission recommends granting approval of the lot split and granting the variance so the house would not be more than 7� feet from the new lot split line. A Representative of the applicant in the audience said that the owner has reason to believe that the house may be about 9' or 10' from the new property line rather than the 7'� feet stipulated. The survey is not completed yet. The City Engineer said that the zoning is R-1 and the property behind this property has access on the west side. Councilman Sheridan asked how much access and the City Engineer answered about 60 feet. Councilman Liebl questioned if this variance should be acted on by the Council at this time or should it go back to the Board of Appeals. The City Attorney replied that he had talked to the Engineering Assistant about this. He pointed out that the Chairman of the Board of Appeals is a member of the Planning Commission. He felt that it could be handled either way, unless there is some problem peculiar to the case, In this instance rt is a simple variance and the questa.on becomes redundant. Councilman Liebl pointed out that the motion for approval by the Planning Commission carried unanimously. MOTION by Councilman Liebl to concur with the recommendation of the Planning Commission and grant a lot split to NLr. Clarence Fosse, and a variance to allow the house to be a minimum of 7i' from the new property line. Seconded by Councilman Breider. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried. � � � REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF APRIL 20, 1970 ,��N PAGE 12 � 2. LOT SPLIT REQUEST: L.S• k70-04, GIL-MOR, INC. (SFIELDON MORTENSON): Lot 5, Auditor's 5ubdivision #153 (split off parcel at southwest corner - 185' X 225') The City Engineer explained that the Planning Commission recommended approval of this lot split for property located on 52nd Avenue and T.H. #65. This is across from Robert Halls, and they are going to try to follow the architecture of Howard Johnson's. It is goi�ng to be a brick building_ It will front on T.x. #65 but access will be from 52nd Avenue. MOTION by Councilman Liebl to grant the lot split requested-hy Sheldon Mortenson.

Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried. RECESS: Mayor Kirkham declared a recess from 10:20 P.M. to 10 35 P.M. CONSIDERATION OF REQUEST FOR A TEMPORARY HOOKUP TO FRIDLEY S�WER SYSTEM ON STINSON BOULEVARD BY NEW SRIGHTON RESIDENT. MR. J.D. EIENNUM: Mayor Kirkham suggested that thzs item be taken up as the gentleman was warting in the audience. It was decided after a lengthy da.scussion on the method to use in charging a New Brighton resident Eor temporarily hooking onto the Fridley sewer system, to charge Mr. Hennum an initial $200 flat fee which will include the first years fee, and $100 per year thereafter on the first of the year until either the amount equivalent to the normal assessment is paid or he connects up to the New Brighton line Mr. Hennum felt that he could hook onto the New Brighton line within two or three years. In this way, if he connected to New Brighton after two years, he would have paid Fxidley $300. MOTIDN by Councilman Liebl to grant permission to Mr. Jack D. Hennum, a New Brighton resident, to hook up to the Fridley sewer system on a temporary basis, the charge to be $200 initially, and $100 every year thereafter due on the first of the year, , until he eitfier pays an amount equivalent to the normal assessment or disconnects from the Fridley system, plus the normal user charges.

Councilman Breider questioned Article 5 pertaining to appointments an relata.on to Article 8 stating that the duration of the commission shall be perpetual subject to the City Council. He felt that the Council should have the sight to make appointments when necessary throughout the year. Mayor Kzrkham said that he thought so also. Councilman Breider further questioned Axticle 4 and said that he was not in favor of the last phrase having to do with pexsonal financial gain. Ae felt that there could be no question of public funds bea.nq used if there was financial gain. Councilman Liebl said that perhaps the City Attorney should put the by-laws in proper legal language. Mayox Kirkham asked for a review by the City Attorney and after his review it a.s to be brought back. Councilman Breider pointed out Article 6, having to do with funding and said that they shauld submit a budqet. Mayor Kirkham commented that when the Commission was started it was not known �ust how much money they would really need. Now they should know how much they need to submrt in a budget. The Crty Manager said that he sends out a memorandum to a11 departments and commissions askinq them to submit their budget by a certain date. Mayor Kirkham said that the City Attorney will review the by- laws, and Councilman Breider said that he would not want the Commissa.on to get into any legal difficulty. It was agreed that after the by-laws are amended by the City Attorney they are to be forwarded to the Industrial Development Commission. THE MOTION was seconded by Councilman Breider and upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried. AWARDING CONTRACT FOR WATER PROJECT #95, SCHEDULE B: (Bids received April 13, 1970) NOTE: Bids listed in Minutes of April 13, 1970. The City Engineer explained that this is for the pumping facility for four wells. The estimated cost was $337,000 and the low bid came in at $454,203.00 by Berglund Johnson, Inc., including the park building. If the park addition is deleted the low bidder would be Peterson-Templin, Inc. The difference for the park addition is about $14,000 for a 21' X 42' addition. He then showed the plans on the easel. Councilman Sheridan said that the estimate for the park addition was for about $20,000. Originally he said that he was not in favor of the park addrtion, but for $14,000 it would seem worth the money. The City Engineer said that there would be toilet facilities, office and storage facilities. Councilman Sheridan asked what was the cost per square foot and the Crty Engineer said about $15.00 per square foot. MOTIOm by Councilman Sheridan to award Water Pro7ect #95, Schedule E to Serglund - Johnson, Inc. in the amount of $454,203.00. Seconded by Councilman Breider.

WNSIDERATIODi OF APPROVAL OF A R�GISTERED LAND SIIRUEY FOR AREA GENERALLY LOCATED IN NORTAEAST QUADRANT OF CES3TRAL AND MI,SSISSIPPI STREET. REQUE5T BY GEORGE WALQUIST The City Engineer explained that this lot split was originally approved April 1D, 1967. When Mr. Walquist took it to Anoka County the Torrens Certificate Examiner would not accept it and said that it would have to be a reqistered land survey. � � �� REGOLAR COUNCIL MEETING OF APRIL 20� 1970 � The City Attorney added that any torrens property would have to be done by registered land survey in Anoka County. �'i � 1 "1L9 :� (�l 3_ PAGE 14 MOTION by Councilmar Sheridan to approve the registered land survey requested by George Walqu�st. Seconded by Councilman Liebl. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried. DISCUSSION OF PROPOSED DENTAL CLINIC. (GEORGE WALQUIST): The City Engineer said that he had advised Mr. Walquist that the normal procedure would be to go to the Board of Appeals for the variance and the Planning Commission for the lot split, but Mr. Walquist insisted on going to the Council first. The City Manager added that this is the item which Mr. Oliver Erickson, Chairman of the Planning Commission, wrote to the Council about. Councilman Sheridan said that it seemed to be a problem of square footage on property previously platted. The City Engineer said that when reviewing the Zoning Ordinance the Council wanted to establish minimvm size when discussing the Hyde Park area. He would need a variance and the lot split. He wants to split a lot into two commercial lots. Councilman Liebl said that he would have to go before the Building Standards - Design Control Svbcommittee also with his plans. The City Engineer said yes, he did not feel that there would be too much time wasted in going to the Board of Appeals and the Planning Commission. At the same time he could process the building plans through the Building Standards - Design Control Subcommittee. � Mayor Kirkham asked the City Engineer to indicate to the applicant that the Council can see no objections, but that they would pre£er that the normal policy be followed. RESOLUTION #81-197D - RESOLUTION ORDERING PRELIMINARY PLANS, SPECIFICATIONS AND ESTIMATES OF THE COSTS THEREOF. STREET IMPROVEMENT PROJECT ST. 1970-4, ADDENDUM #1. MOTION by Councilman Liebl to adopt Resolution �r81-1970. Seconded by Councilman Sheridan. The City Engineer explained that this resolution covers the Onaway Addrtion area. They are scheduled for a.mprovement next year, Uut water and sewer is now being installed in this area. There is a problem that when the water and sewer is done, the streets will need a good base for the trucks to drive on. It is very sandy in this area. It is his suggestion that a public hearing be held and if affirmative, that the curbing, base and mat be put on, and leave the final mat until the storm sewer problem is solved. It might be two years before the storm sewer is installed He recommended with the prices going up so fast, that it be done this year. Councilman Breider asked how long it would be�before the plans are completed for the storm sewer. The City Engineer said fhat the preliminary plans are completed now, it is the problem of Spring Lake Park agreeing to participate. 'Phe plan approved by the Fridley Council is for a pipe from University Avenue to the rail- road tracks, and from there to the river it would be open ditch. Spring Lake Park wants all open da.tch. The decision is between the Fridley Council and the � Spring Lake Council. The cost was estzmated in 1968 to be about $80,000 to clean the ditch and put bigger culvert under the railroad tracks and about $250,000 to pipe the water all the way from University to the railroad tracks. Fridley wants a£ull pipe system and Spring Lake Park wants a full ditch system. The sanitary sewer system has been designed on the basis of a pipe system as previously approved by the City Council. �4y ii l� %+l REGULAR COUNCIL ME�TING OF APRIL 20� 1970 PAGE 15 Councilman Sheridan said that Fridley wants a complete system. Everything within � the City could be piped and outside Fridley could be ditched. Councilman Breider asked how to get this pro7ect moving. The Firdley Council met with the Spring Lake Park Council and they would like to stall for 10 years. If Fridley wants to develop this area there must be storm sewers. The City Engineer said that the problem is that Spring Lake Park would have to pay about 45% of the pro�ect. The City Attorney said that after the meeting between the Spring Lake Park Attorney and the Fridley Attorney, he thought that the only way to get any action would be to start court action. Councilman Sheridan said that if such action is started, it should also include the Highway Department. THE VOTE upon the motion, being a voice vote, all voting aye, MayQr Kirkham declared the motion carried. MOTION by Councilman Breider to instruct the City Attorney to inform the Council at the May 4th Meeting on his recommendation on the course of action to take wa.th Spring Lake Park on the participation in the storm sewer project.
