FRANK G LIEBL MAYOR Publish; February 21, 1973 February 28, 19i3 1 IJ �R ' P�a,,,,,�nuing Commission Meeting - December 20, 1972 PaSe 2 Mr. Clark explained that the request for plattiag was oae of the requ:Lre- ' ments of the building permit for the Standard Oil Station aad ahopping cen�_er otherwise the legal description would b� in metes and bounds. They have d:ivided the property as it was described for the building permits. They have adde�i a � � tria�a���.lar outlot on the Eas� end. They hope to buy the property to [he 1lorth and cambine it wi[h the balaace of the plat for access to Osborne. They s�tated they would not let this piece go tax forfeit because it is valuable for ac��ess. Actually, it would not be built on because it is property the St. Paul Wat�er � Works has an easement on. The plaus are to put pZaatiugs on it. They are noa trying to buy it and feel that they will be successful. i LJ ' � � ' � ' ' ' � ' r -, �i � ' MOTION by Zeglen, seconded by Fitzpatrick, that the Plsuning Com�ission close the Public Hearing for the proposed Preliminary Plat, PeS. �72-08, Osborne Plaz a, By Standard Oil Company, property geaerally located at 7609 Uaivexsity Avenue N.E. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, the motion carried unanimously. MOTION by Fitzpatrick, seconded by Schmedeke, that the Planning Commission recammead to Council that they concur with the Plats and Subdivision - Streets st�d Utilities Subcammittee recoa�ending approval of the Proposed�Preliminary P1at, P.S. ��72-08, Osborne Plaza� by Standard Oil Company pn all that part of th� Northeast Quarter of Sectloa 11, lying Northerly of the center line of Osborne Road a�d East of the center Line of Universi.ty Avenue subject to C�utlot A being included as part of Lot 2. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, the. motion carried unanimously. Chairman Ericksoa woaderQd if the recaa�neadation should be made that the diviaion be granted at a later date.� Mr. 3chmedeke thought it should be attached now. Mz. Housenga was informed that Council, would, at their meeCing of JaLivary $th, set a public hearing date for the second meeting in February. 2. COPTINUED PUBLIC HEARING• REQUEST FOR REZONING, ZOA 4k72-11, BY UNIOri OIL COe; g695 Haclm►ann Avenue -- to rezone from G-1,S(lacaL shopping) to C-2 (geaeral businese) Public Hearing open. ' 3. CODIT�NUED PUBLIC HSASING• RIiQUEST FOR A SPECIAL (JSE PERMIT, SP ��72-18� BY UNION OIL CO.: 5695 Haclm�ann Avenue -- to construct a convenience s��ore and contiaue the service station. � Public Hearing open. Mx'. Glenn Hubbard represented Union Oil Company. , Chairman 8rlGkson said that at their last hearing, the Coanmissi,on recommended that the people be RoCifisd of thia meetiqg, and also a request was made to the City for a traffic count oct Hillwj.nd Drivs to help ia determiaing whether or noC this loopback was needed. Tbe request by Union 011 Gompany is to continue tne uae o� the service station on that site and in addition, they wish permission Co conatruct a couveaiea�e store So�th of the service station. In order t� do thia, it was felt aa easement should be grapted and a loopback �ambined. , � � ' �J i � � , � �laaning Cammission Meetin�, - December 20, 1972 Page� 3 Mr. Clark explaiaed the p�oposed loopback using a blown up copy. Lewis Sedluqd, 930 Haclmiann Avenue: Mr. Hedlund felt the Union Oii l:ompany was beiag coerced into graating the easement in ordez to provide the loopt�ack. Chairman Erickson said the Oi1 Company caa continue the use of the pr.operty without rezoning because the Use is under a grandfather's clause. M�c. Clark said that the City felt if they were going to chaage the road and require additional right of way it should be settled now before the n��w station is built. Chairman Erickson said the Co�mission has to make up their minds on ,�everal questions. First, is this corner such a traffic problem that it will have to change the traffic pattern. The State has offered to give the Cfty the land to change the traffic. We have had same situations wfiere it cost the City $20,000 to get land for the loopbacks. Glenn� E. Nelson, 5747 Central Avenue: Mr. Nelson felt this'plaa would be no improvement. Mr. Clark gave the following traffic count which was taken in 1970, for 24 hours: Hillwind Road, 670; Central Avenue around 3,500 cars per day. The grediction for 1975 was 5,000 cars on Cent=al Avenue and 1,000 on Hillwind. Stella A. Kowal, 5715 Polk Street: Ms. Kowal said she was especially bothered by the semaphore on Ceatral Avenue, She felt ths timing was very poor. � George Fletcher, 5725 Pplk Street: Mr. Fletcher stated he has been driving that road for 5'� years from 7:00 AaM. to 9:00 P.M. and has never had one iota of a problem from that area. � � ' ' Answeriag�the question of trafiic accidents at that intersection, M�-. Clark �said he could give the accidents reported to the Fridley Police Departmer.�t, whict: did not include the State or County figures. Ia 1971, from June to Deceu►ber, the accidents on the East aide of Highway ��65 were seven. In 1972 there were: six accidents East of Highway ��65. There were three accidenta on Central and Hackmann in 1971 and 1972. The West side of Highway #65 has more traffic accident:s. Vivian Hedlun3, 930 Hacl�ann Avenue: Mrs. Hedlund dida't think the}� could attribute many of the accidents oa [he East side of the Highway to Hill��ind Road. She did not think this particular loopback would do anything for that prc�blem. . Chairman Erickson asked if there was anyone present who used Hillwitid Road. � There wasn't. He said the concern with Hillwind Road was what will happE�n in the future when the development on top of the hill and the vaCant properi:y in between is completely developed, , � Joeeph J. Branco, 5720 Polk Street. Mr. Bz�anco brought up the fact that the ,bueea for �li schools in the area pick up the children at the Hillwind tntersecticn. ' Wasa°t there some way to direct the traf�ic away from Hillwind Road. H�: did n�c ' th1�k this plan would solve anything. When Onan employees get out.of w��rk t:is i-,ter- aec�ion is iaqposaible. Not having a right turn ofz Central without a sitop sign is a bad si[uation. • , � , ,. , ,. � ' , � � � � � � , � � � ' � , � � 1 � V 0 Planning Commissfon Meeting - December 20, 1972 Pa��e 4 Cttarles Buzzell, Jr., 5741 Polk Street: Mr. Buzzell asked if any of the atreeta would be changed as far as the width of the street, and how large an area would be assessed. , Mr. C1ark said the Cfty does not have a cost affectireg land owners yet because �his would be joint construction being this is a County Street with the City cantributing. Since this pzoject would be a loopback, the adj3cent property owners would be assessed. Central Avenue will be widened considerably. The road which intersects with Central Avenue is Hacl�ann. That road is 31 feet, but the State pays.�far wha[ is equivalent to a normal State servfce drive and the City picks up the difference. Five feet w;ll be taken because 31 feet is not wide enough for passing. Glen Nelson, 5747 Central Avenue N.E,: Mr. Nelson asked how much study comes with widening. Mr. Clark said the quentions on the cost will come up again at a preliminary assessment hearing. r Mrs. Hedluud asked what the citizens could do about it: If they could stop it now, why let it go o�? Mr. Clark understood the preliminary design had beeu State approved. M�C. Buzzell feic there must be some project cost settled or understaod before it is ddopted. He uaderstood a final analysis could not be made, but there �ust be some idea of the cost. Chairman Erickson said first of all the question that shouldlbe resc�lved is whether or not the City and you people feel the t�'affic is a problem to t'r:z extent that some alternative type of street be constructed and how it is to be F�aid for. In addition to the -reQuest for the street, which is really by the Citv, the petitione� is asking for rezoning of�the property so�that he can Legally con�inue �e use of the filling station without the grandtather clause. However, he could contiaue the filling statioa without rezoning. Mr. Clark continued that the convenience store could be built withat�t a special use permit and without any rQZOning. As he understands it, the F�arcel i� big enough for [he conveaience store right now without the street. i Mr. Miaish asked if the� convenience stoxe was to be a separate builcling. M�. Clark said it was and the only reason the intersection is being consi_dered is to avoid the problen� of having a new atructure built that would have t:o be tarct dowa if something 1s done in the future with the road, The qu�stion was aaked that if this interaectlon is something of a t:ra�fic h�1i$rd, Why put the store ia? Also what direction would the convenience store tace, off H�.11wind or the� present site. Mr. Glenn Hubbard said they havf; occupi�d Chs atatlon for 15 �►ears under the preseat zoning, About three years ago, the s�oaing was changed so that service statians were not permitt�d in that t�;n° of Loning. They did not know thfs uatil they wanted to do some remodeling �:r�d �ace li�ting on the statioa. Mr. Hubbard said the remodeling �+ould ccns:�st af adding a bay and a mansard zoof. He was asked if he were allnwed to mak�� the changes to the station. �rithout �dding a bay, would�he still go ahead anci put � LJ � � � � �I � � i � ' ' � � � � L� � � � � 1D p�anninst Commission Mee�in�, - December 20i 19�2 Pa�e 5 in the convenience store. Mr. HubbBrd said they wanted to put in a convec�ience store aad sell the la�d. They felt the couvenieace store would be used, t�ut noC duriag the rush hours of traffic. 2�'..r. Minish recalled that this was a problem intersection a coupl� of years ago, when Public Hearings were held for Viewcon, Inc. There was strong cancern that this would be a problem intersection. It was not the traffic on Hill.wind, but traffic bacicing up on Central Avenue. �Not just one street, but all oi: them. Chairma� Ericksou told the audience that at the time of rezoning for Viewcon, the Co�ission had many comments. The audience has to realize ttiere ia going to be additianal people using these streets when the land is ful:.y developed. When the Shell station was asked'to give up land for the �.00pback, it cost the City $22,500, We are trying to avoid that expense by planninF; ahead. If the station were remodeled, there would be two accesses to Haclanann, two to HilLwiad, but from a traffic standpoint, the City does not like all these accessea. If this is going to be a part of the trade, it will be part of the transaction. Mr. Clark said that if there is going to be a change in the intersection, aad the Oil Company agrees to give the land, let's do it now and not afte�r the station is built. Chairmaa Erickson cautioaed the people not t� �orget the �act that the reason this discussion came up is the people complaining about the traffic. Ann L. Williams, 5760 Haclanann: Mrs. Williams said that you will find the majority of the people here live in the iamediate area. Her driveway is the first driveway from that intersection on the North side of Haclanann, She has very seldom had to atop when she backed out of her driveway onto ; Hacl�ann. d A citizen commented that the assessor said they weuld be assessed if the road went through. He was tald it was true. Mr. Hubbard said he would like to get back to the origiaal issue of the rezoniag regardlesa of the station. They were agreeable either way about che station. Mr. Miaiah said ff the Planniag Commission were to grant the rezonir.�g, then Union 011 would be abla to expand and add a bay or rebuild. He asked Mr. Hubbard if he eavisioned there would be an increase of cars entering the station. Mr. Hubbard answered there would be a total of three bays in either case. They were most concerned about protecting what business they have. You t�ave to be modern and keep up to date in order to keep the business you have g;ot. Any tteW station bu�lt today ts a three bay station. He was not conviaced thi.s woula cauae a traffic problem. Mr. Miaisl� said vhatever Che traffic volua►e is, if the station is i�nprovedT Graffic will increase. Mr. Hubbard said their building would not generat:e tra�fic, the traffic is already there. , � lE , Plaanin,�Cocr.nission Meetin� - December 20, 1972 r.,�� b 1�(?TIQN by Zegleu, seconded by Minish, that the Planniug Commission close I the Public Hearing for the rezoning request, ZOA #72-11, by Union Oil Company and the request for a Special Use Permit, SP 4�72-18, by Union Oil Compaay. Upon a voice vote, a11 votiag aye, the motion carried unanimously. � ' � � Mz. Clazk said that Parcel �2 is 30,821 square feet, the road essement ie 10,592 syuare feet. Part of Parcel #2 would be on the opposite side af the service station, Mr. Fitzpatrick explained thaC it seemed to him thi all came abot�t because the Commission felt there was a necessity for improving traffic at this inter- section. The Engineering Departrnent submitted a proposal that is supposed tc do just that. He didn'.t know is th�y were tc� set themselves up as juc�;es as to whether this does it or not. He was not personally convinced this is a�ig improvement in traffic coatrol, but on the other hand, he was not an autk�ority to do that either. � Mr. Minish thought that this plan represents, probably, Che best apF�roach tp the prQblem at the Least cost, but aot necessary Che optimum�to solve the problem at increased cost. I Mr. Clark.explained that just the extension of Che island will proni.bit cars getting into che Station site and that will be better than it was be+f�ore. However, tha s�ation pevple must feel they would not grant an easement wi.thout � . coSt to the City if the access is cut off at this point. This plan is p.�rt of a repoi�t made �y a tra�fic engineering firm and approved in 1971 and the;� came up with about the same th�ng for this section. � L� � Concernint the petition, Mr. Clark said the Special Use Permit was �ieeded only for the station, but if Union Oil changed the plans and made one structure aad bay and accessory use for Che station, the rezoning was aecessary. Chairq�an Erickson added that the convenience store part of the request was really.aothing to discuss at this noint. The Commission couid just alloc,�;�im to go ahead under the graudfather clause without any action. Mr. Schmedeke said he was not sold on the street plan at all. � �hairman Erickson gaid the �ommission at th�s point had [wo choices. One, 'deny Che request for rezoniag and Special Use Permit to allow the staticii to ex�st as is. Secondly, gr�nt the request for re�oning so that the peeitioner � caq expand the station with stipulations whether or not the s�rvice stat�on be relo�aeed and that right of way be re-dedicated� � �� � � Mr, Minish said he was concerned about the safety factors of this iRter- aection� One of the conce�ms at the time of the Viewco:� rezonictg was ch-e probler: of t�affic at this latersection. � ?�Q�IQN by Minish, seconded by Fitzpatrick, tha[ the Planning Cov�issi�.:n re�Cpmmend to Council denia2 of the request for rezoniug, ZOA =`72-11, b� t;r.ion Oil Company, 5695 Hackmann Avenue, Co rezonP from C-1S (local shcpoin�;) tc G-2 (general business) and rzcommend denial for the request i:�r a Spec�ul L:_ Per�niC, SP #72-18, by Union Oil Company, 5695 iiackmann Avenue, to contin�le tne sexv�.ce atation and construct a convenieace storQ. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, the motion carried uaanimously. � � P�ann?n Coc:,m�ssion MeetinQ - December 2i��1972 PaQe 7 1F Mr. Hubbard said the neighbors said they did not object, but the City ' wants a service drive there, and because of that they are denied the use af - their property. � 1 � � i � � � i Cinairman Erickson wondered if there was some way of allowing,the thix°d bay. If so, it wo�Id give the Ci[y time to solve the traffic problern. Mr. Fitzpatrick said the whoe thing is brought about by the Commission's misgivings abouC this proposed solu�ion to the tratfic problem. He would like to poiut out to the iJnion Oil Conpany that what they were requestiag mighL make a bad situati�n worse, although it was not relative to the Counnission's pioblem'. Chairman Erickson said he had asked for an opinion about the feasibility of changing �he Ordinance adding a non-conforming Use without rezoning. Tliis is �a possible soLution to their problem. 4.

They hav� not lost any time on the request in this respect �.s ha wants to use as much of his property as he needs. Any agreement for the 5outhar:f end of the property probably should be left open. Lots 12 and 13, Block 2, City •View Addition, go down to 57th Ptace - Country Kitchen. Chairman Erickson asked what property was presentZy being used. Mr. Kohlan answered that almost all of it. On, Lots 12 and 13, Blocic 2, � City View Addition, the Western part has private homes. He produced a cE>_rtiticate of survey which show houses on Lots 10 and 11, Block 2, City View Additi��n, and that a fence encroaches on Mr. Gabrelcik's property. � � , � � Chairman Erickson stated that the uaderatanding is that Mr. Gabrilci,k has used Lots 6 through lp, Block 28, Hyde Park Additian, for his used car l��ts. i�las �t correct that he was not asking for any Use on Lot 16, Block 21, H;ydt Park Addition.

The May�or i�sked the City Attorney if the City had obtained the laad necessary for this action. The City Attornay said the State had deeded the unusod right of w�y to the County and the County had in turn deeded Che land to the City.

The ba?iic request is for rezoning the property tl�e gas stat�on is locatad on n�w. Mayor Lieb� askad if they could grant or deny either of the raquests at t}�e present time or would it require two Public Hearings. The Ci1:y Engineer said if the plan for the sup�rette meets all the requirament;> of the code a pormit would be issued. The request is to rezone the propexty where the gas station is,in oxder to allow Union Oil to plan a modern gas station.

He said it is a complex problem involv,ing zoning, traffic arid assessment considerations. Th� City Engineer recommonded a Public Hearing be set in March, allowing time to discuss the problem with M1ard Councilman Starwalt, and arrive at a salution to the serious tra£fic problem ahead of time. He said there are going to be 2,000 to 3,000 people in the new Innsbruck lio�th area and this pxoblem should be resolved bafore it gets too serious. He addad they h�d bean working with the Highway Department and also Anoka County, and the plans have been approved on a concept basis.

He added, not all the poople are goin� to agree with the plan, but a Public Hoaring or� March 12, 1973, would allow all the people concarned to air`tha whole problem. Caunciluian Nee a&ain, asked i£ thera was a better plan. The City _• Enginoer said a possible acc�ss was the use of'Polk Street and this ccrosidored whea develop�aent is approved.

Fridley, hiinnesota 55432 RE: Street Improvement Project 1973-1 and 2 Dear Mr. Gibbs; On March S, 1973, the City of Fridley o�ened bid proposals for Street Improvement P,o. 19T3-i anci 2. The results of the opening in- dicaLed that �finn-Kota Excavating, Inc. was low bidder with a total contract price of $440,373.55 (see enclosed Bid Tabulation). A check of ali �iirl proposals revealecl an error in ?iinn-Kota's bid proposal. Tne extension of tt�e unit price for item 2341.504 Bituminous I�faterial for t�fixture, was incarrect (see encloseci propo- sa2). A quantity of 1052.2 tons at the unit bid price of $40.70 per toii results in a correct extension of �42,824.54 in lieu: of the r{uoted �4,282.45. This correction results in a correct total contract price of $478,915.64. Stancla.rd Specifications for Highway Con�truction, dated January 1972; Division I, Section 3, Paragrap}i 1301, page 13, states; "In case of a discrepancy between a unit bid price and the extension, the unit bid price shall govern". Following the above specification and with concurrance from the State of Tiinnesota, Office of Contract Administration, it is our opinion that �1inn-Kota is no longer low bicicier and the coiitract shovld be awarded to the second Iow bidder, Bury and Carlson, Inc., for a correct total contract price of $460,622.40 If you do not concur with the above vpinion, please notify our � office prior to the Consideration for Award�FContract, �,rhich is on tlie a`-ei:da ior t11e Council :�ieati:�a sc,le:c:Edlec� ?:arc;i I�, 1�73. � � CC: Nasim Qureshi, City Engineer Enclosures/prl Yery truly yours, �`,� �� /z��� Richard N.

Aldrich, Director, Civil Aefense . March 6, 1973 Siren - Air Conditioner Exchange I talked with Mr. Gustafson, Civil Defense Director in Columbia Heights, and also to Mr. Flynn of UNICOM, regarding the exchange of equipment. Columbia Heights wants the air conditioners and is willing to exchange them for the siren. As to any paper work involved on the siren transfer, Mr. Flynn suggests that only a resolution by the two Councils�involved is necessary. I discussed this with Mr. Watson af Columbia Heights and he asked if I would prepare the necessary resolution and forward a copy to him, a copy of which is attached.

LUDWIG AWARD FOR DISTINGUISHED MUNICIPAL SERVICE Deadline May 1, 1973 T(2: i�ayors, Managers and Clerks in Member Municipalities For the twelfth consecutive year, the Executive Committee of the League of Minnesota Municipalities is pleased to ask for your nomination for the C.C. Ludwig Award for Distinguished Municipal Service. Those among you who knew the Iate Clarence Ludwig, League Executive Secretary from 1935 to 1958� knew what fine attributes of public service were exemplified in his own life and ideals. Oger the past 11 years, the stature of the award has grown so that nomination is recognized as a high honor. You can add to this stature by seeing to it that if you have a highly qualified person among your officials or employees, he is promptiy nominated for this year's award. The ava,rd itself is made at the League Convention each year to the official or employee o#' a member municipality who has, in the opinion of the judges, the most outstanding record of public service for his municipality among those nominated Por the award. The judges may, at their discretion, present two awards when nominees meet the standards of excellence contemplated for the award. When two ava.x°ds are presented, however, one must go to an official of a municipality of less tha,n 10,000 population. For this reason, small as well as large municipalities are urged to submit nominees. Far yaur guidance in preparing your nomination, instructions and a copy of the rules are enclosed. One copy of the nomination form is enclosed and additional copies are available on request. You may be interested to know that the committee of judges is composed of Minnesotans who axe themselves distinguished in public service. In addition to the form, the judges rely heavily on supplemental material as outlined o� page two of the award form. Your attention is also directed to the criteria enumerated under "Eligibility for Award" (see the first page of award rules). Material presented should help the judges make their decision based on these criteria. If you wish to present a variety of documents in making your nomination, we recommend that it be enclosed in a notebook, binder or scrapbook. ' A11 information regarding nominees must be sent to the League office, postmarked no later than May 1, 1973• The award will be presented at the banquet during the League Convention, June 28, in Alexandria.

LUDWIG AWARD FOR DTSTINGUISHED MUNICIPAL SERVICE . . I lo ESTABLISHMENT AND PURPOSE. The award to be�known as the C. C. Ludwig Award shall be made in accordance with the following rules to a deserving Minnesota municipal official or employee of a city, village, borough, or town which is a member of the League of Minnesota Municipalities. The award shall be made at an appropriate time during the annual convention of the League of Minnesota Municipalitieso 2. ELIGIBILITY FOR AWARD. The award shall be made to the official or employee who has, in the opinion of the judges, the most outstanding record of public service for his municipality a.mong those nominated for the award. To be eligible, an official must have been in office sometime during the year pre- ceding the deadline date for submitting nominations. In making their deter- mination, the judges shall take into account the following factors: a. The extent to which breadth of vision, statesmanship and unselfish concern for the general good have been characteristic of his public life. In the evaluation of this chaxacteristic, importance shall be attached to the following: (1) Service above and beyond that which is required by the nominee's position. (2) Contributions of the nominee in the interests of improved ' municipal government through national, state, county, municipal, professional, or other public organizations or agencies. ' b. The nature and extent of the improvement in municipal government or his municipality attributable to his municipal service and the lasting character of such improvement. c. The respect in which he is held by his community, �,nd the influence he has had irl raising the prestige of municipal government service. d. The length of his municipal service. This factor shall not be con- sidered as important as other criteria except that service of the nominee should have been long enough to have established a pattern of continued, unseliish conduct in office. No award shall be made in any year in which, in the opinion of the judges, no ;' nominee meets the standards of excellence contemplated by these rules. The 3 judges may make two awards in one year when, in_their opinion, two nominees meet the standards contemplated by these rules; provided, however, that if two :' awards are made, one must be made to an official of a municipality of less than 10,000 populationo ' 3• NOMINATIONS.

DAVIS, CITY MANAGER JAMES P. HILL, ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER/PUBLIC SAFETY DIRECTOR MARCH 12, 1973 SUBJECT: SPEEDING COMPLAINT FROM MR, DONALD iCERSTEN OF 565 HUGO STREET Niui►erous attempts were made to contact Mr. Kersten over the past week. We were finally successful in contacting Mrs. Kersten on Friday, March 9, 1973. As a result of. the contact with Mrs. Kersten an official Police Compla�,nt Iteport was filed, # J-9002, on this incident. Mrs. Kersten alleges that there were primari]y two juveniles, one living in the 600 block of Hugo Street and one living on Janesville Street, that were responsible for the speeding. The juvenile on Hugo Street along with his mother were contacted by a police officer who advised them of the seriousness of this complaint if this behavior were true and continued. The officer was assured that the juvenile would cooperate and observe the speed limits and use caution while driving. The second juvenile living on Janesville Street was not at home at the time ' the officer made contact with the parents. The parents requested that the officer have a talk with their son and they would follow-up the discussion at home. This juvenile was contacted at a serva.ce station and was advised oi . the complaint. This juvenile thought the fact that he had a loud muffler ' caused people to think he was speeding when he in fact may not have been. He stated that he would get a quiet muffler and watch his speed and driving habits. J � It is my understanding that the Engineering Department has, or will be making a recommendation for one additional sign on this street in the near future. Considering the fact that this complaint concerns a street consisting of only two blocks, in a somewhat isolated area, I do not feel it is justified in any further specific action at this time regarding enforcement. The street will be spot-checked by a squad assigned to that area and we will keep alert � to any further complaints on this street. __ .-� C ' � 1 C ' ' C ' ' � �J � ' � THE MINUTES OF THE PUBLIC HEARING COUNCIL MSETING OF MARCH 12, 1973 ����3 The Publio Hearing meeting of the Fridley City Council was called to order at 7:30 p.m., March 12, 1973, by Mayor Liebl. • PLEDGE OF ,ALLEGIANCE: • Mayor Liebl led the Council and the audience in eaying the Pledqe of Allegisnce to the Flaq, R(�LL CALL : MEMBERS PRESENT; Starwalt, Liebl, Utter, Nee, Breider.

He added, the development of Innsbruck had increased the amount of traffic in the area. He said the present intersection would be unsafe, unless the City makes provisions for the increase and plana a safe intersection. He said there are four possible proposals for..the the review oi the Council £or the modification of the intersection. The City Enqineer listed the four proposed routes and pointed them out on a map on the overhead projector. 1) Beginning at Matterhorn on HathawaX Lane and continuing down Hathaway Lane to the Central iatersection. . 2) 3) Beginning at Matterhorn on Hillwind Road to Polk Street to Hathaway to the Central intersection. Beginninq at Matterhorn on Hillwind Road to behind the service station, forming a loop-back. 4) Beqinning at Polk Str�et on Hathawa�y Lane and continuing to the intersection, but this portion of zoadway would become a one way to the west.

He said ther� would alsq be difficulties ir� the aecand proposal as this was also through a reaidential area witia some apartments. He added, th� �exraia would be difficult, and dividing of the property would be di�ficult. The City Engineer said �.he �hird pro�aos�a� would involvs the least number o#' residential Qroperties. iie aaid a loop�b�Gk would be used as has been done in a number of other instances withia t�,� G�.ty. He said the traffia wa�lA be routed �.o the outer drive az�d brough� into the intersection behind the gas station. Proposal nua�ber fou�, he sa�id, would create a one wa ir� the short st�etch of roadway between P41k Streat and the intersection on Ha�away L�.rie. I�e said t�h�� wou�d iorce a11. othar �.naominc� traffic in the sr�a to ta}ee another route such as Mat�eri�oraa or c��rc��na. � ' ' �J ' II� ' II� 1 ' � ' ' ' �I � L� ' ' ' ' ' ' � ' ' ' � , ' • ' , ' ' ' ' ' ' PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF MARCH 12� 1973 PAGE 3 He said the reason for the review of the traffic chanqe proposals at this time was �o try to consider the traffic problem and plan as a point of developanent . of the area. Mayor Liebl said that Matterhorn wpuld be completad to Ga�dena. He stressed, under no circwnstances was the City to change the traffic pattern on Hathaway Lane, this had been told to the property owners. Mayor Liebl asked the City Engineer if the connection between Matterhorn snd Gardena would be coa�pleted at the time of the proposed project. The City Engineer said this was true. Mayor Liebl listed the various routes for traffic to gain access to the area in several directions. He said at no ti.me would he advocate routing 2,500 cars along Hathaway Lane. He said he believed the use of Gardena, Hillwind Road and Silver Lake Road through Innsbruck should be considered. He said the steepness of the terrain would not accomznodate 2,500 cars, it would be too hazardous.. Mayor Liebl aaid he had talked to the people o£ the axea and he did not believe t.kze City should try to divert the traffic so it wi11 not cause interference as a. t doe s today . The City Engineer said there are many aress that must have improvements, he added, the City had been working with the Highway Depaxtment. The City Engineer pointed out the outer dr�ve and island on the map on the o�verhead projector. M�yor Liebl asked if a half ci�cle were created, how much land would have to be acquired from �.he property owners in the front of their hoanes? The City Engineer said there would be no need to acquire any land, and there is only one property owner with residential property in the area. The City Engineer pointed out the area where the resident lives and stated the property owner could obtain access from his property on a service road. He said the City could install sc�me kind of fencing for protection and security. Councilm�n Starwalt aaid he believed the Council waa+ trying to handle two problem� at the sante time. He said the Union Oil Caapany would like to have the property rezoned enabling Union Oil to add to the present facility or rebuild the service station. He said the building permit cannot be issued b�fore the property is rezoned. Counc�man Starwalt said Mr. Hubbard of the Union Oil Company said the convenienc� atore cou],d be taken out of the plana if the property ownera of tite area felt it would fuXther complicate the traffic situation. He said the request would be simply for a building permit for the gas atation. He eaid the current matter is a far reaching situation as the traffic problem muet b� considexed. He called on Mr. Hubbard to express hia views. Mr. Hubbaxd �aid �he Company either wanted to add on ta and remod�l the the exiatiag etzuctuxe or build a new building. He s�id the City staff had said they would like a loopback thnt would close off the road in front of the $tation and these plans were sub�aitted to the Company and had been agproved. H� said the aonvenience atore was not a requirement of the plan. i3e �aid �.i�e Company was willing to withdraw thia pQrtion af the plan if the City deqirec�. He s�id '��ey wanted to aonti�ue bueinese at the existing station and modernize the f�'cility. Mayor Lieb1 said he was cognizant oE th� faat th1�t the Company wanted to PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF MARCH 12, 1973 PAGE 4 renovate and update the building. He said he believed the Company would be hesitant to complete a larqe addition without first taking care of the traffic problems. Mayor Liebl said four streets are caning together in the area, and the City �rould have to solve four different conflicts. He said the residents of the area have to get around this area. He said he believed the creation of a loopback would reduce the accident rate as it had done on 61st and T. H. #47. He said thie would force the people to slow down particuZarly with the construction of a divider. He mentioned the increaseci problems in the �ummer months created by the drive-in movie across the hiqhway. Mayor Liebl said it is the obligation of the Council to provide a safer intersection and anticipate the increase in traffic that will be created by the develoFxne� of Innsbruck North. He added, this is why the current discussion for rezoning had to be con�idered along with the traffic problems of the area. �ouncila�an IItter said he would�like to see d copy of the comaaunication from the Union Oil Canpany in which they approve plans for the loopback. Mr. Hubbarci said the City Engineer had a copy of the ietter. Councilman Starwalt asked the possibility of deleting the plan for the convenience store, approvinq the rezoninq and handling the traffic problems at another time when a more caaplete plan can be provided by the City Engineer„ allawing the Ccanpany time for construction. Councila�n Breider said he believed this to be a feasible method of handling the matter. He said he believed the proposals for the elimination of the traffic problema to be very complex and should be discussed at len�th with the area people. He said he belioved the present meeting was resulting in the spinning of wheels as nothing could be acted upon. Mayor Liebl asked the-City Attorney if the property were to be rezoned, could the Company build on it? The City Attorney said the CitX would prefer that the Company obtain a buildinq permit. He said the two matters are separate, leqally. Before the buildinq permits can be iasued, the Company will have to suba�►it plans to face the building oze way ox the otlaer. He queationed whether this would be feasible for the Company before the entire area plan is finalized. Councilman Utter said he did not believe �he Company would like to build the �tation now and relocate it in a years�-:time. The City Attorney said if the Caanpany does build at the pre�ent time, and facea the building in a manrier that would not be aecesssble`,there wauld be cansiderable damage to the Company. ; Mayor Liebl said he thought it would be more feasible for the Oil Coanpany � to remodel the station at the pre�ent time. Mayor I,iebl stressed the importance ' of considerinq the problems of the entire area before anX action is taken on the a►a►ttex . Councilman Breider asked if the City could atipulAte that the Union Oil Compa►ny work with the City or only reanodel �t this time or until a satisfactory traf�ic pa,ttern has been worked out. The.City Attorney s�id if these m�ttters were put in the Eorm of stipulations, they would be atronqer than if-there were no etigulation at all. He added, if the pla�n� were to face the station on T.�i, N65, the Counci7. could delay �r�nting a permi� until the study of the traf�ic pattarn is completed. He said the 011 Company would klave to casnp�y or r�que�s� � building permit.

Mr. Hubbard said $30,000 to $35,000 would be involved in remodelinq and $90,000 would be used for rebuilding. Mr. Hubbard said eomething had to be done. He said if the plan called for rebuilding, this would be perfectly allright as they had dedicated the land for the proposed loopback. He said if the Council so desired, this plan could be put into effect six months from now, this would be fine. He said the dedication should be withdrawn from the plan if the City does not put the loopback in. Councilman Starwalt said he did not believe the traffic problem solution could be reached in a period of six �ontihs. He said the Council'a hands are tied until aome plan ia developed through the cooperation of the State, County and area residents. ���e City Engineer said this is the reason he had brought the inforsaation ,�� the proposals to the Council, as �Y►ey were closely related. He said ev�ry step of the way should be worked out for a solution of t�e problems �:�� the entire area. He said they had to work with the State, County.and the Oil Company for finding a solution to the routing of traffic. He said t�e City cannot go to the Qther departments involved until it has determined what plan is needed. He said this all had to be plann�d at the local level. Councilman Starwalt asked i� the construction of a statian would create more problems? The City Engineer said as lonq as the station is there, he felt it could �tay there. He said the City would like to solve the problem with the consiFieration of what is in-the best interest of the City, the azea people and the Union oil C�npany. Councilm�an Starwalt asked iE the Comprehensive Plan was being considered in the solution of the prob�ems of the area? The City Engineer pointed out an area on the map on the overhead projector sayinq there is no sewer in a certain portion��f the area. He said the plan that was beinq proposed coula be worked out with Anoka County and the Highway Department. He added, working with the Highway Department may take a v�hile. He said if the road is to be torn up, all the wark on the sewer should be done at this time. and the whole area would be cleaned up. He aaid there should be an overall plan and it should be worked on step by step. Councilman Utter said he believed the proposal on Hathaway Lane should be omitted. He s�id he did not think the Polk Street xoute would be feasible because of the number af residential dwellings. He added, to consider the residents, it would be best to conetruct the loopback. Councilman Utter mentioned the existance of dther loopbacks in the City and their effectiveneae. He eaid a fence could-be installed to cut down on the noiee. C�ouncilman Nee said Mr. Eldon Schmedeke w�►s in the audience, he would like him to a dre�s the Council and explain Nhy the Plnnning Co�nission had recammended d�nial of the request. He said he was not able to detenaine froa� the minutea of thQ Planriing Coaaniasion Meeting. Mr. Sahmedeke said many of the people at the present Public Hearing were also ' preaent at �he Planning Cotamission meeting when the proposal was diacussed. He said the Flanning Comnisaion knowa that there is going to be n►ore traffic in the future. He said when the requast was discuee�ed by the Planning Comanission ' there ha�i k�en only one pl� for �he aolution of the traffic problem aubaaitted. He said the Comaaission should have gotten a, cha}.ce o� �roposals. He said at PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF.MARCH 12, 1973 PAGE 6 the present time the traffic problem is not as urqent as it will be in the future. He said, in his opinion, there should be a bridge built in that area. He said there may be some enterprise that would come into the area and use the open parcel of land that is there. He said the co�nments that he is making were for himself and not the Planning Commission. He mentioned the great number of people that would be using the area from Innsbruck. He said the City shou2d not consider or activate a plan just because it is free or Cheap. Mr. Schmedeke said he did not know how a bridge would be placed in the area. He mentioned the fact that there may not always be a theatre in the area. He said there are other factors to the problP.ms in the east. He said the concept of the bridg+e should be considered for some 'ti,me in the future as he did not believe the present proposal would work, Mr. Hedlund said he believed the loopback would be a bad pla�. He said t�e plan would only allow for a three car stacking area. He said the traffic would stack up like crazy, He said there would be added problems during the Onan rush haurs and when traffic from Innsbruck was being routed through the area. He said he did not believe the plan would be gaining anything. Mayor Liebl asked the City Engineer if this was correct, would there only be enough area for three cars? The City Engineer said there would be area enqugh for ten cars. The City Engineer said there would be more stacking area in the alternative proposals, but there would be a problem of routing the traffic through a residential area. The City Engineer said he worked with traffic everyday and the volume in this area is about the same as on 61st and T. H. #47. He added, the plan is certainly not the best plan for the traffic problem. He said there are three othex plans that axe better, but there has to be some balance and the residents of the area must be protected. A resident of the area who stated he lives on Polk Street said he was not willing to accept additional traffic in front of his house, but added, there are only two routes that would be good solutions, on Polk Street and on Gardena Ave. He said if the City was going to be realistic, these are the only routes that could be used to solve the tra£fic problems. He added, the station had given the land for the loopback and the island construction was planned, but it had been measured and thexe is about 90 feet, or area enough to stack two cars. . Mr. Fletcher asked if it had been determined that there was a traffic problem? Councilman Starwalt said he wauld first like to thank Mr. Fletcher for openinq his home tv the area res3denta to meet and discuss the matter. He said Y�e did not believe anything could be solved by th.ose present iE the discussion were to become heated or irrat.ional, Councilman Starwalt .a�wered Mr. Fletcher's question by saying, there �.e a traffic problem there and at a11 times of the day. He said the parpblem is qping to get even worse. iie said Mattexhorn was scheduled to opex� into Gard�na this season and �ddit�q��� l�omes Wf11 be constructed in Innsbruck North and the traffic f�'o� Inn�bruck wi�.l marQ t,l�a�� likely �xr�eed the amoun� that has been reduced by the opening of A�latterhorn. �� � t �J ' , ' , ' �_I CI , �_ I , , ' ' , , , PUBLIC H�c,:�i?_ t� F`i:;ETiNG OF MARCH ) 2, 1973 ' • ' PAGE 7 Mr. Fletche� asked if Union Oil would want to widen Central to five or six lanes ar.a li.mit the access to the station with some kind df island? He said this would allow the traffic some space to get out of the area. The City Engineer said this was a two fold question. He said if union ' Oil closed off the access and there would be five lanes used, there is enough right of way for six lanes, this would be doubling the area as there is now three. The City Enqineer said each of the lanes would carry 5,000 ' vehicles, easily. He said this would require closing the access to the station. He asked Mr. Hubbard if Union Oil would consider this proposal? Mr. Hubbard said the Company would have to see a plan. ' I �I ' I� ' ' , , ' ' ' � The City Enqineer pointed out the area on the map on the overhead projector saying, this would require a left turn into the station, cars could still get in, but it would be more difficult. He said the only access would be from t.he detached service area. Mr. Hubbard said the Oil Company would prefer =:ccess into the media strip. He suggested creatinq a cut in the island, as all other areas allow access through such a cut in the island. He added, �.Yais would still separate the traffic. The City Attorney asked Mr. Hubbard if the Union Oil could consider remodelinq only at this time and at a later date when the loopback matter is solved the station could be rebuilt. Mr. Hubbard said they wauld prefer to rebuild at the present time, he added, they would rebuild in either case. He said this had been planned for two years and budgeted by the Company. The City Attorney said if the Company built the station facing #65, this w�ould eliminate the loopback passibility. Mr. Hubbard said the Company would wait for a solution to.the problem before buildinq. Mr. Hubbard said the Co�pany had granted the easement for the loopback in August of 1971. The City Engineer said there was a delay because there had to be an overall plan in the best interest of the City, Union oil and the people of the area. He added, finding a solution that woulc� be best for all three would not be done within a year. Councilman Starwalt asked Mr. Fletcher if he felt the Polk Street route would be the best solution. He asked Mr. Fletcher if this is where he lives? Mr. Fletcher said he did live on Polk Street. He said he would prefer a loopback to routing the traffic in front of his house. He added, he thouqht the construction of five or eix l�nes would be a good solution as thia would take care of the cars coming up to Hillwind Road and Hathaway. The City Engineer said if the six lanea can be p�sovided, thia would enable a atackinq area of at least ten cars which can qo onto T. H. #65. He added, 200 feet would be basically asaigned to Hillwind. Mr. Fletcher said he could accept this plan. Mr. Fletcher asked what the procedure would be if one of the plans were to be considered by the City. The CitX Engineer said all the area property owners would be notified and there would be another Public Hearing and t�iey would decide if there would be a banefit or not. He added, the people can determine if they are justifiably asae�sed, and i� they desire, they can go to a higher.court for hearinq and decisione on the matter. Mayor Ziebl said there wae a City policy on the in�prov�ment of intersections. , He said hs believed the conm►ercial property is fully asseased and the residents are a�sessed a pertion. He aeked if the method used on the 61et and T.ii. �k47 intersection was fu11y nsaesaing the commarcial property and the portion to be p8id by the residents and rest was paid with State l►id money7 The , City Eng�neer Said the sing�.e family pr�perty paid noxmal residential cost and the commercial property.owners paid the fu11 aoat. PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF 1N�.:.CH 12, 1973 PAGE 8 Councilman Utter asked when Matterhorn would be co�r►pleted? The City Engineer said this would be done by the coming winter season. A resident of the area asked if Hathaway would be cut into Matterhorn? Mayor Liebl said there had been four different proposals for exit facilities. He listed the proposals�. He said he could not see puttinq 2,500 cars on Hathaway Lane. He said the terrain would not allow it. Mr. David Ucebler, 1281 Hathaway Lane, said he hsd been followinq the action on the matter and had attended the meetings involving the problem. He said ther� had been aome talk of a four lane road being provided from the Innsbruck area, he said he had been up there and there is no road such as this. Mr. Doebler said he was aware of the pxoblem confronting Union Oil. He pointed out the varioua traffic problem areas on the map. He said the property owners of the azea conetitute most of the westerly traffic. He added, there c�uld be many accidents in the'area if easterly traffic was to be promoted. kze said he felt the additional traffic burden that may be caused by additional developonent in the area could be taken care of by the planning of a workable inter- sectioA. � Mayor Liebl asked Mr. Doebler if he concurred with the feelinq that the Council ehould not open Hathaway Lane7 Mr. Doebler said there is a very steep hill on Hathaway Lane. i�e explained the accident that his son had on that roadway stating the nature of the road made it impossible to determine the Zane that the accident had oacurred in. Mr. Williaa� Dietz, 1280 Hathaway Lane, eaid the City's service vehicles were unable to drive up the atreet because of the ateepness, they had to back up. Another reaident of the area said she had gone a back route also to avoid the intersection. She said ahe often will travel acrose the bridqe and get on Centxal on 49th rather than endanqer the lives of her children in the problem� intersection. She mentioned the danqer created by allowinq �the right turn aftex stoppinq off of T.H. #65. She added, the persons turafng do not stop and the traffic fraan Hillwind Road cannot determine if there is traffiv coming. The City�Engineer said it was possible to not allow the right turn at that intersection. Gbuncilman �Tee said he d�d not believe the City �hould open Hathaway Lane to Central Avenue. He asked the possibility of Uaion 4il purchssing the prope�ty fr�► the reaidents, having thb City rezone the la►nd, and Linion 011 construct the convenience store if it can be rattionalized in terms of traffic: Mr. Hedlu,nd said this would make his property unsellable.• He eaid it w�ould devnlue his property and if he were to want tv acquire property he Nould not buy.adjacent to ar convenienoe store. Councilman Nee asked Mr. Hubbard if Union Oil would negotiate for the sale of the houete if the Council would put the lauid inta some higher use for fuller use o£ the quadant. Councilman Nee said thia is i VAlL13b1@ piece of property. Mr. Hubbard said he would have to obtain approval from the Caapany, but he believed the idea had some merit. � Mr. Fletehex s�id he would r�ot want a convenience store in hia back yard no matter how convenient it wouid be to ge� a carton p,� m�.lk.

PAGE 9 Mrs. Lewis Hedlund, 930 Hackmann, asked who the Sanitary Sewer would sezve, w�y it is needed and is it a continuation of the Hathaway line? The City Engineer said no, it is between Haakmann and Central. He added, all the City is connecting is this line to the Central Avenue line. He said there would be no iunprovement to the individual systems, it is an overall benefit of the entire system. Mrs. Hedlund asked ii they would be required to hook up to the sewer line. The City Engineer said there would be another Public Hearing before the property owners would be asked to hook up. Mr. Hedlund said she knew how this would go, they would have to hook up. Mrs. Hedlund asked if Haclunann would be widened in this area. The City Engineer said he did not want to get into the minor details at the present time. He said h� believed they shoulid atick to the overall plan and find something that ��.A� can work with. He said there are four proposals, and they must find �t�c: most workable one. He said the people were asking for detailed engineering 4nformation and this was not to be given unless the Council authorized him to do so . Mayor Liebl said in 1971, he had surveyed the area and there were three points the people were interested in: one, they wanted a safer intersection; two, they wanted the station to be more appealinq and look better; and three, they indicated they were opposed to increasing the commereial property in the area. He stressed, nine out of ten people said they would not want to see additional commercial property on that corner. Mayor Liebl asked if there were any objections by the people for upgrading the intersectioa or making the station more appealinq? There were none in opposition. Councilman.Starwalt asked if the Oil Company plans wpuld be jeopardized if there is no action at this time? Mr. Hubbard said he would not like to wait until late in the seaaon tio begin construction becaus� of the weather, but the Company can wait if there is no action. Councilman Starwalt asked if Mr. Hubbard underatood the dileaana of the Council because of the problem of the entire area. Mr. Hubbard said he understood. Mayor Liebl asked if this would hold up the construction? Mr. Hubbard said they could not get a building permit without the rezo�inq. Councilman Starwalt said the rezoning did not apply to the intersection. � The City Engineer said the permit could be isaued without the consideration of the entire traffic problem, but if the City would wish�to acquire an inch of land sanetime in the future fro:n the Union Oil Company, they would have to pay dearly for it. He said iasuing the permit will not make the problem go away. • MOTION by Councilman Starwalt to close the Public Hearing. Seconded by Councilman Utter.

PUBLIC HFJ,RING MEETING OF MARCH 12, 1973 PAGE 10 Mayor Liebl asked Councilman Starwalt if he had any questions or commente? Councilman Starwalt said he would recommend closing the Public Hearing as Union Oil had said they were not going to build the convenience store in this area. The City Enqineer said the property is zoned correctly for the construction of the convenience store at the presen� time. Ha said as he has gathered, Union Oil no lonqer wanted to build the convenience store, and they will not request this. Basically, he added, this would be for the continuing use and building of the gas station, and this requires the special use permit. The City Engineer said the property woyld have to be rezoned before the special use permit could be granted. P7r. Hubbard asked 3f the matter could be tabled until the problem is resolved? Mayor Liebl asked if the station would aell gas and also have stalls for doing repair work? Mr. Hubbard said thi� was correct. Mayor Liebl asked Mr. Hubbard what his intentions were concerning the convenience store? Mr. iiubbard said he felt the Council and the people of the area did not want the convenience store in this area and he was willing to withdraw this requ�at. Mayor Liebl said there were no objections to upgrading the station. He said it would be a while before there was a conclusion to the traffic problems. Mayor Liebl aske@ if he could see the plans for the station. Mr. Hubbard said he had submitted them to the City Engineer. The City Engineer took the plan to the Council table and they were discussed. Mr. Hubbard said the front of the station was solid and constructed quite 2ike a house. Mayor LiebZ said the building w�ould greatly enhance the area. Mr. Hubbard said he realized there was a problem at the present time. He added, Union Oil did not wish to build the station and have the City condemn it. Mayor Liebl asked if there were any questions from the Council or fraa Mr. Hubbard. There were nd questions.
