. .. . _ . . . _ . . . � � .�
Mayor Liebl asked the Public Safety Director if he had talked to Mr. Schurr of �
Shorty's Towing and also if he agreed with the approval of the agreements as
presented in ihe agenda. Mr. Hili said he agreed with the agreements and Mr. Schurr
also approved, ?
;
MOTION by Councilman Breider to approve the agreement with Anoka County for Reimburse- : '�
ment for Junked Autos for further discussion. Seconded by Counci7man Utter. (Note: a
This motion was amended later in the discussion.)
.. , . .. __ . __
Councilman Breider referred to page 3-D of the agenda and inquired what the blanks would
contain in the completed agreement. He said this was under Section D of the agreement.
The Public Safety Director said this agreement is recommended by the Director of �
Environmental Health and this amount is set by the State. He said the current rate f
is only $10 and the County is negotiating with the State for a hisher rate. -Ne said
the State reimburses the County and the County reimburses the City. Mr. Hill ;
commented that the City is trying to get some kind af reimbursement and the County ;
and State had come up with the agreement within the agenda. He said he did not ;
favor the smaller amount, but he added, this is a provision which the City did '
not have at the present time and would be better than what is in effect at the �
present time. He interpreted the intent to allow the City to pick up abandonded , : �
vehicles over seven years old with missing parts. He said even with the reimbursement,
the City would loose money with the storage fees. ��
Counciiman Breider questianed if the Council was to approve the agreement as it is
with the figures missing with the understanding that they would be added when they
are available. Mr. Hill advised the Counci7 that he could see no problems in this
proceedure because the figures would have to be used after the agree�nent between
the County and 5tate are agreed upon. ,
Councilman Starwalt suggested the figures be obtained and the agreement brouc�ht back
for Council approval at that time. • ,
The Public Safety Director said the addendum had been provided for an estimate
in the costs which would be negotiated between the Gounty and Staie. He said there
was no provisions in the agreeinent which would indicate the rates.
The City Manager advised the Council that the request for approval would be for' the
Agreement of the Addendum.
Mayor Liebl said he thought $20 would be a practical amount, Mr. Hill agreed stating
the Towing Company would not know how far away the car wouid be.
The City Attorney said he assumed that the rates being negatiated between the
County and State would be established statewide and would be uniform.
Councilman Breider said he would see no problems with the first agreement and
thought the $15 and $20 amounts would be more than adequate. He questioned the
approval of the second proposal without figures.
The City Attorney advised the Council that the agreement could be approved in
principle and there would be no problems. •
The City Manager explained that the fee would be.established within the agreement ;
through negotiations with the County and State and the City is not taking part in the I
�
negotiations. - I

PROBLEMS IN FRIDLEY AREA AFTER RECENT S ORM:
! MOTION by Councilman Utter to receive the communication from Mr. John H. Mertz,
� i Manager North �ivision, Northern States Power Company, concerning the restoration
� of service after the windstorm of Thursday, June 20, 1974 and dated June 26, 1974.
-� Seconded by Councilman Breider.
i
Mayor Liebl read the letter to the Council and audience.
The City Manager said this item ap.peared on the agenda because of the complaints
received from the citizens of the area. He said there had been a report provided to
the members of the Council in their agenda folders. He said the Administration had been
�in contact with NSP and had requested that a representative of the company be present
, at the current meeting to explain why the company had not provided rapid restoration
!• of service to the community.
Mayor Liebl read from the reports submitted by the Administration. He indicated the
length of time a lift station vaas without power which was siated in a memo from t�r.
Ralph Volkman, Superintendent of Public 4Jorks. He also pointed out there was a memo
from the Public Safety Director and Deputy Fire Chief which indicated that in all cases
where there were wires down, measures were taken so that no one was hurt by the wires.
Mayor Liebl said 1,OQ0 people worked around the clock on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday
with some working over 24 hour periods without rest. Mayor Liebl stated he believed
NSP had done an outstanding job in restoring service to the Fridley area. He asked
the members of the Council who was without lights after the windstorm.
The City Manager said Logan Park and Marion Hills were without power after the storm.
Mayor Liebl�called on Mr. John Ranck, representative from NSP.
'� Mr. John Ranck addressed the Council and stated all of the corrnnunities were treated
equally after this storm which came through the entire metro area. He said the
' damage was equal in the south, north and metro areas. He said the Company was not
able to bring the crews from one area in from another because there was equal wide-
spread damage and each area's crew had their own proble�ns to iake care of.
Mr. Ranck continued to exp1ain that the men worked better than 30 hours and they
ususlly only work for 16 hour shifts and rotate in this kind of emergency. He
said the men choose to work the extended time. He pointed out t.hat there had to
be a matter o� priorities set and followed and the main feeders had to be repaired
first. He explained the method of restoring the power stating the main feeders_
would have to be fixed before the limbs which had taken out the individual residents
.

to provide power to those residents. He also explained that the City utilities would
have to be restored with power first and the hospital.s would also be a high priority.
He said these priorities have to be set and when work is done on the higher priority
levels, the crews will move on to the next catagory. He further explained that all
of these types of emergency calls are directed to the Trouble Department which
dispatches the crews. He said that NSP has a board on which all feeders are
indicated and the Company would know when a feeder is out �aithout receiving calls
from the area. Mr. Ranck pointed out to the Counci7 that before the storm hit
the western area of the metro area, there were crews out because of the storm
forecasts.
Mr. Ranck said he would like to echo the comments made by Mr. Mertz in his letter
to the City of Fridley. Mr. Ranck thanked the Fridley staff for their cooperation.
He explained that many people were without power and there were many hardships caused
because of this. He explained there were many large oaks broken and down from the
storm and that the wet conditions preceeding the storm made the conditions worse,
Counciman Nee questioned Mr. Ranck on how the information was obtained by NSP that
the power was out in the Marion Hills area. Mr. Ranck ansv:ered if the feeder was
out, this would show up on the board. He said if this is not the case, it would
be through calls from the custoiners.
Councilman Nee said when he had called, he had gotten a recording. Mr. Ranck said
if this h�ppens, the caller is receivinq the signal that all of the lines are busy
and he should try again. He explained his o��an wife had to ��rait until the lines were
not busy to put a call through. Hr further commented, all 125,000 people would be
trying to call at one time.
Councilman Nee pointed out that a lift station was out fot° 10 hours and he asked
if this was because no one v,�as able to report this. Mr. Ranck said they were all
aware of this and it was back in operation as soon as possible. Mr. Ranck said he
goes out on calls such as this, and it is often just a matter of time and could be
be something downstream. He explained there is only a certain amount of people able
to work on this and it cannot be done at the same time. He pointed out that all of
the service a�as restored within 48 hours and with the 125,U00 people out of service,
this would average out to be 6,000 restored per hour. He stai;ed he did not know
how anyone could expect more from a company after this type of extensive storm.
He further explained that after each storm, the company has a meeting t� discuss
their shortcomings and solve all problems that ntay exist.
Councilman Nee again questioned why the phone is not answered.
Mr. Ranck said when the recording is played, i:he 5Q available lines in the Trouble
Department are busy. He further explained there are four lines in the north division and
the Manager has his own line. He said the City Managers have access to this line and
can get through to him. lie repeated, the recording wou7d be off vdhen i:he 50 lines are not
busy. Mr. Ranck explained the Cornpany has total information on the feeders.that are out.
Mayor Liebl said the relay would indicate the feeders that a�°e out.
Mr. Ranck thanked the Council and the City Marrager for the opportunity to come before
them.
Councilman Starwalt asked what advise would be offered to the people in case of a
similar situation in the future. He asked if t}1e people vaere to get the recording,
should they just keep trying until they get their message through?
Mr. Ranck said the Company has to rely on individuals to relay the message to the
company for outages of individual service. He advised the Council that once the
Company has the information, there is not any need to call again, not everyone
in the block has to call. He said he had ti��orked with the crews in this area and
most of the people were very considerate and understanding.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, all voting aye, Mayor Liebl declared the motion carried unanimously
and the communication received.

could draft such a docum_:��;, if the Council wanted this done.
Councilman Starivalt asked if it is standard proceedure to pay the fees at the time
of the filing of the Plat, why should Wall Corporation become an exception to the policy.
Playor tiebl said this would be because t,fall Corporation wanted to pay this when the
R-1 area is developed.
Mr. Dante stated bJall Corporation was not aware of this type of fee being required on the
filing of the plat. He said they had been encumbered with this and it would be a help
to the Idall Corporai:ion with the situation of the money market of today, Mr. Dante
said he would appreciate the Council giving this request some consideration and drafting
a covenant with the City which would be a legal instrument which would require Wali
Corporation, or the developer of the ft-1 area to pay the fee when the area is developed,
or at the end of an 18 month period, whichever carne first.
Mayor Liebl asked if it was Mr. Dante's intention to save interest an this $8,000 for a
period of 18 moni:hs, Mr. Dante said it was r�ot only this factor that prompted the
request, b�t the matter of the prime raLe of today beina very high. He exp7ained
there is the addition uf two to three points over this prime rate charged. He said
this woul�i be a considerable amount of money, and would b� an •interest rate of 15%
to 16%. He said this interest un the $II,000 at this rate in the overall package would
be detrimental to the development at this time.

Councilman Starwalt asked when the 4lall Corporation would be breaking ground. Mr.
Dante said he could not determine an exact date at the present time. He again explained
that the City has the drawings, but they are communicating on a dai7y basis correcting
and adhering to what had to be done.
Mr. Dante said tdall Corporation U�as trying to fill the City requirements. He commented
4ta11 Corporation had wanted to begin construction the previous month. He said they
hoped to get started the current month.
Councilman Starwalt asked the City ��1anager if this type of procedure had been
,� followed in other areas such as Innsbruck. Mayor Liebl explained this to be a
! different situation, I�msbruck had donaLed land in exchange for the plat. The City
Manager agreed and said this had been 12 acres and i;he land around the lake.
' Councilman Starwalt said unless there is some good reason for deviating from the policy,
! the past policy shculd be follo�,�ed. He said he believed the payment of the money at this
time would be good for the 41a11 Corporation as well as the City. He continued, he
would not support a motion to change this policy at this time.
Mayor Liebi called ori Councilman Nee to explain the intent of this type of suggestion.
Councilman Nee said he had made th�is suggestion u�hen the proposal for the donation
to tf�e parl: funcf would have been S20,OU0 with the construction of two tennis courts
and his suggestion would have been io extend the tin!� period for the installation
of the tennis courts. He said he had discussed an arrangement that wou7d delay
the construction of the tennis courts for two years. Fle explained the conditions had
been scaled down some since this was the proposal. H� said he believed the approval
of this request Nrould set a precedent that would be very d�ifficult to live with.
Councilman Nee said he understood the applicant's problem, but if this was approved
at this time, it ���ould have to be done for everyone in the future. He asked how
it would be possible ta enforce this type of policy in the comir�g years.
The City Planager said he believed Gouncilman Nee's comments were pertinent to the
question at hand. II� said this had never been considered before and it would set
a precedent. He pointed oui that ather developers in the City had paid the same
high interest rai:e. He carrmented the others would expect the same type of requests
to ue approved.
Councilinan Breider said he concurred with the comments of Councilman Starwalt and
CounciTman Nee.

Mr. Dante said there was another in�tter� that v�ould have to be settled at the present
meeting. He mentioned the �insl:allation of the structGre in�the de�icated easements.
The City Manager said there is sarne pondiny necessary and there were two levels in
elevations for this ponding. He said this area in auestion concerned the normal range
and also a 50 year rar�ge frequency. Ne explained this would ind�icate an average of
every 50 years, this area may be fl.00cled. He further explained the current concern
was that the garages were plann�d for installatian within the 50 year frequency range, in
the drainaye area. He sa�id at times, there may bc �,Jater aro��nd the garages. He said
there ���ould be no seriaus problem in this, but if this is approved, Wa71 Corporation
should bear the liability. He suggested this be stipulated that 6da1T Corporation
or future owners cr develoners of the area be liable for any drainage problems.

The City Manager said this request was before the Council and approved a few years
ago. He explained the property would drain to the Moore Lake area:' He further
explained at the time of the first request and a}�proval, the City had received
a letter of approval from the adjoining property owner. He said the two people
at that time were in agreement with the request.
MOTION by Councilman Starwalt to receive the letter from Pdrs. Holan with the notation
that this property o��m er is no longer effected by this variance because they no longer
reside adjacent to the applicant. Seconded by Councilman Utter. Upon a voice vote,
all voting aye, htayor Liebl declared the motion carried unanimously. '
Councilman Starwalt explained that he had talked to the Jacobsons and also other
property owners in the area. He noted that tliis action had taken place four years
ago, but the requested structure had not been constructed at that time. He said he
would like to address some Guestions to the City Manager. He continued asking
if there could be a drainage problem in this area and if it would be possible
to hold the City harrnless if any problems occur. He said f�lr°. Jacobson's alternatives
would be to either build the garage five feet above the roadv,ay and creai;e a tuck
under garage or c;o by the present proposal to build it two feet under the elevation
of the roadway. �H� said in th� later case the v;ater ���ould run toward the garage and
in a heavy raifall, the water aaauld be directed through the garage and drain to
Moore Lake.
Mr. Jacobsen addressed the Coun�il and explained there would be dead man's ti7e
installed in the back of the yarac�e within the graund to drain the garage. He commented
if the water v�as up to this elevation, everyone in the area would have a problem, not
just himself, Mr. Jacobsen stated he belicved the drainage prot�lem had been solved
in the plan. �
The City Manager ex4�lained that this drainaye system could become plugged and create
some problems in the garage. He said the applicant should take the responsibility for
any drainage problems if the neigl�bors do not object to this construction.
Mayor Liebl asked P1r. Jacobsen if h� would c�ncur with the agreement which had been
signed the last �;irre the variance had been applied for. Mr. Jacobsen said he would
agree with this signed agreement, he would like reapproval of the agreement.
The City Manager stated the garaye floor vaould be lower than the curb and the
drainage would go toward the garage.
, Mr. Roger Jorger�s�n, 5341 Wes� Moore Lake Drive, addressed the Council and stai:ed he
' is the present abutting prop�rty otvner and this vari�nce ��reuld allow construction
two fe�i: from hls property line. Ne commented there weuld be some problems
if conditions created by this ins�allation �vere not properl,y maintained. He said
the garage roof line would create a patio tahieh would be 12 feet from his bedroom
windows.
Mr, ,lacobsen answered, this area could not be used as a patio, he had already built
a beautiful patio in his yard ancl he would not use the top oP the garage for another
patio.
Mr. Roger Papke, 5801 41est Moorc Lake Drive, said he would not have any faith in the
installatior oi re�aininy ��alls. He explained tl�ere are some in the area which had
been installcd and are crumbling.
Mr. Qernard Altermatt, 5831 ulest f400re Lake Drive, said he wou7d like some assurance
that this time the work would be done. Ile explained, last time this was considered,
there was a mound of dirt hauled to the area and it is still sitting there.
Mr. Jacobsen explained this would have to be done when a person is in proper hea7th
and has the financial means to support the project. He said the construction would
come up to from �5,000 to $7,000.

Councilman Utter asked Mr. Jacobsen the reason for installing the tuck under garage
rather than one level with the ground . Mr. Jacobsen in turn asked Counci7man Utter
if he had been up to the sitc. Mr. Jacobsen continued stai:ing �his wauld create a .
situation with the leveT installation that would noi; allow access to the back yard.
He explained tF�ere �vould be the possibi7ity of constructiny a i:en foot family room an the
top portion of the yarage in the future. He said this would allcw for the construction
of a bigger house. ;

concerned about what would be done with the top of the garage. He continued this would
be close to the Jorgenson bedrooms and if i:here is a family room constructed, this
would be disturbing,
Mayor Liebl said there would be 16 feet in between the garage. He continued stating
this is a normal distance �For a separation between homes.
Councilman Nee questioned how �1r. Jacobsen proposed to protect his neighbor, did he
plan to fill in the area. Councilroan Utter asked if he plarined to install retaining
walls. Mr. Jacobsen said he v,ould install retainirg walls, he would have to p�otect
himself at the same �irne with this insta7lation. Ne informed the Council that many
people up the street have retaining N��alls.
Mayor Liebl asked f�1r. Jacobson if he was prepared to accept the responsibility for the
construction of thc proposed retaining vaalls. Mr. Jacobson said he had already done
this and this construction was in the plans.
Councilman Nee asked if the proposed incline would be about six to one. Councilman
Star4�alt asked h1r. Jacobson ho:� he planned to get out of his drive�!ay. Mr. Jacobsen

indicated this to be no problem. Fie said if this is construcied properly and the
snow is removed, there would be no pro�lem at all.

to the Council would be. Mr, Hill said he would recommend hiring the additional
police officer°s. .
Mayor Liebl said there are additional people in the Innsbruck and Meadow Run areas
that would need police protection. He also referred to the ne��l three zone policy
of the Poiice Department and intensified police surveil7ance of the residential
areas.
The City D1anager refer�red to the report in the aaenda and said 1:hei°e is a cost
attached to such service. He pointed out that it would be a cost committment of
about $400,000 fcr one man for a period of 20 years, and approximately $ U,000
cost for the next y2ar. He said t}�e limitation for raising taxes is set at 6% each
year ard there has be�n a 12% cost of living increase. He said they may be ample
justifical;ion, but ihei°e would be a 6% levy limi�:ation.
t+layor Liebl said he felt there vtas a need for additional security and protection
against burglary in the residentiaT areas, industrial, and commercial properties.
He said one of these days, they t�rould be tested, and this is the reason he had
asked that the Po7�ice force be ree��aluated.
Mr. Hill said his recoininendation had been based on the 1972 statistics and if
this were updated for the coming year, there would be a need for five additional
men. •_ .
Councilman areider questioned 1�1r. Hill as an Admin�strater and asked him what he
would do if he needed more men and v;as afraid to spend the money. Mr. Hill referred
to other areas of attention in the �ity ard said would these areas of study continue
if there was not enouoh funds available.
Councilr�;an areider asked if there was some understanding at the 21q funding. The
Finance Director said there was a letter of understanding. Counci7man Breider
asked hot•� much weighi: such a letter had. The City 1lttorney said not too much,
this is a lel:ter of understanding by the officers, tfe said it had been presented
to the entire body and the Police Officers had stated they were not opposed.
Councilman Breider asked if the nei�a people are hired, could they be placed on
PEIZA, or would they go on the Police pension plan.
The City Ai:tarney said the State Legislature had said the Municipa]ities v1i11
pr�perly iund the pension, and there cannot be an ayreement made bztNreen the
officers and the Department to do less than i,he Sta.te Legislature requires
the h;��nicipalities i:� do. It would not make any difference if there was an
agreement to uay only 12i.
Coun�ilman Qreider asked if they would be able to put the new people on PERA.
The Ciiy Attorney said this is the question of a current law suit in Columbia
Heights. tie explained that PERA vrill not accept funds frorn those who have an
independerrt fund.
Coucnilan Dreider stated th�re has to be a way out. 7he City Attorney said the
only way out woulci be if the Legislature r^econsidered.
Councilman Starvralt commented he believed Fridley has an exceilent Police Department.
He asked Mr. NiIT if h� woulr� i;urn dovm one police officer if this was the amount
authorized. Mr. Nill said he would not t�arn dotan anything. He said he felt the
justificai:ion is there for the two additional po'ice offic�rs, and this matter would
be up to the Council.
Councilman Starv�alt suggested one man be hired at the pr°eser,t time and one man in
six months from this time, Mayor Liebl said there ���ould be a time limit involved
to allow the men to attend training school. Mr. Hill said they would only be
gaining one man, �ne sergeant and one man in the field area, lie explained with
this addition, the,y would only be yetting one in the field. He said he would like
to attract some gualifiied officers who would not have to attend the training school.
He indicated some of the men interested in the positions in Fridley had had outside
training and had acqu9red necessary skills.

Mr. Volkman continuE�d to explain, many things can ta4:e the cold we i:her and they

COI�SID[RATIOP� OF A BASEQALL 1=EIJCE AT FRIDLEY CO�;?�iOP;S PARK #1:
Councilman Utter recalled at.the last meeting of the Council, this item had
been voted do;vn. He ���alked to the map on the sct�een and pointed out �he area to be
fenced. Fie saiu he had taiked to the members of ihe Park and Recreation Comn�ission
who had indicai;ed they knew the maney was budqeted for the installation of the
fencing. He said the members of Lhe Con:missicn seceied to have the same reservations
about this insiallation as he had er,pressed at the previous meeting of the Council.
Couneilman Utter continued the proposed fence ��,ould run along 61st, 7th and then
continue around the ball diamond, He said part of the proposal 4iould be the
installation of so!,ie gates. He questioned if the gates would be locked urhen the
park is not in use. �la said the fencing would stop some balls from going into.7th
Street. •
Councilman Utter• questioned it if �,uuld be possible to cut do��rn on the size of the
right„�ield and allo4v foi° some space between the fences beti�leen the two diar�onds to
a11ow for a��ralk�,ay. N� said this vaould also allow for space for people to stand
to watch tl}e ball gnmes. He s�ici the first proposal to use the one fence for both
diamonds ��rould be a reduction in cost, but he felt this proposal to aly«�l:he space
in bet���ee�i �vould allow sc;ne access to the area. Fle pointed out that there is no
side•,+ralk in this area. Ne also pointed out it �•rould be possiUl�e to delete the plan
for tfie fence along 61st and only install the fence along 7th Street.
hir. Paul Bro�vn, Dii°ector of Par{:s and P.ecreation, addressed the Council and pointed
out i:hat the activities at the Coir�,nons Park are al��ays the rnan�ber one i:eams. He said
this is why this area �•ras pro��osecl for this fe�cing. Ide said he believed Councilman
Utter's sugyestion to be a good compromise. f(e stated, it �•�ould allow th�se �tanting
• to �•ratch the"yarne i:o stand along the fence. Ne also mentioned that the gates of the
fence would not be locked during tF�e day. Ne explained tf.at this field �dould be
used primarily for the [3abe Ruti� teams and the morning teams. • Ffe said it tvould be
possible to use 1.4�e six foot fencing throughout the area, and this ��jould make up
for the difference in cost which would be �increased by the i��stal1ation of the ti��o
fences to•create the a,�al!:v�ay area. i�ir. !�rc�:vn pointed .out tl�at the eight foot and
six foot fencing a�ould be safer than the fo«r foot fe�icing because at four feet,
the players �dould run into the inetal bars af the four foot fencing. He said ihere
would Ue a nced f�r tne installation of a gate for �the access of equipment for ,
maintenance of the area. •
t40TI0N by Co�ulcil�uan Uti:er to adopt the proposal �vith the• stipulatian that there Ge
a ten foot vrai I:���ay Getween the two ball diao�onds and thai i;lie fence be six feet in

GOldSIDFRATION OF THE ALICE WALL PCAT PARK DEDICATIOPI:
The City Manager said there had been a meeting t-�ith the representative� of the Wall
Corporation and there is some question concerning the park fee. He said acco�°ding
to the ordinance tiii�ich establishes this amount, i:he payment should be $20,�00. He
said the Administration iias suggested tv,ro alternatives for a soiution of this problem.
He said if Vlall Corporation was to donate land to the park system, the density of the
apartment complex v�ould have to be decreased because this land had been figured in the
total density of the apartment con;plex. He said if ihe l�lall Co�°poration is required
to pay�fees for only the residential portion of the property, this t�aould be a total of
approximately $8,OOU. He said if this is done, he �vould suggest s�ipulatirg that
some recreational facilities such as tennis courts be included in the apartm�nt complex
recreational area. He explained t.he park fee would be waived for the apartment area,
and only acquired for the residential lois.
Mayor Liebl said he would like to see tennis courts installed as a part of the
apartment complex.
Councilrian Breider said if the fees were waived for the apartment area, and required
for the residential lots, this would be fair in his mind.
Councilman Utter recalled there had been extensive discussion concerning keeping
ihe park like area for the use of the apartment complex. {�e said if this area were
dedicated to the City and open to all of the City, there would have to be some
aeces�ability for maintenance equipment. He said he weuld also aaree with the
proposal of waiving the fees for the apartment area and would li}:e the tennis courts
installed, _ .
Mayor Liebl again stressed his strong feeling that the Wall Corporation should furnish '
tennis cou�•ts for the people in the apari:ment complex.
The City F�lanager said he feit this to be a reasonable compromise that the fees be
waived for the apartment area and then the blall Corporation w,ould on7y pay $II,000 ,
inpark fees fior the residential area. i
P10TION by Councilman areider to au�horize the Ad�7inistration to waive the fees for
the area of the apartment complex and only require park fees fior the residentia]
area with the stipulation that tennis courts be provided for the apartment complex
wil;hin the recreational area for the comp�ex. 'Seconded by Councilr�ian Utter. Upon
a voice vote, all vot�ing aye, �•layor Liebl declared the motion carried unanimously.

The City Manager explained through this type of cooperation and this type of program
it would be possible to obtain state and federal funding. He said at this time; he
would recommend that the Council take action i;o set up consideration of such a
program and if there is a proposed program, this could be brought back for Council
consideration,
Councilman Utter said he hoped those on the City staff do not go to the School
District with a nature intcrpretive prcgram and expect the School to adopt this,
He said ine officials a1; the Schoo7 goi; the feeling that the natura7ist would
`come up wii:h a program and i:he School was to accept this program.
The City Manager said this is the reason there is to be equal members from both
areas.
Councilman IJee said he was empathically in favor. of this program, uut he questioned
if Woodcrest School would be a part of the program.
The City P�anayer responded, this would only include tho.se Scl�aols in District �€14

community. lie said this cooperation 4YUU1(� bC extended to the othcr school districts

said this program is not for the use of the naturalist, it is for the cooperation of
the fity and Schools in all types of �rograms.
Cquncilman Breider questioned if the concept �•ras to be approved at this time.
Councilman Utter said if tfie program is approved, this would provide for possibie
funding of.some activities.
Councilman Nee said this type of co,romunity/school program or joint recreation
commission tivas used years ago, but this fell apart because of tax payer suits.
He explained if the uses of the procram vJere not available to the children of the
entire City area while the entire City ��;as being taxed, this brought about suits, and
the program fell apart. N� said he would ]ike to see som� arrangement where all of the
people within the City from the other Schoo] Districts tiaould be able to take advantage
of the program.
The City P�tanager said ai, the present time, ihe City t,ras not asking for any commitment,
they titi�ould come back for Cou�cil approval for this. tle said the prog�^am could be

UPOfJ A VOICE VOTE, all voting aye Mayor Liebl declared the motion carried unanimously.
CONSIDERA7IOiJ OF REVIE4! OF PARI: CO3�1PREHEP�SIVE PLAN:
1�1ayor Liebl said he G,rould like to see some recommendation from the Parks and Recreation
Commission on the Park Comprehensive p7an. He said he would also like to see some
priority areas pointed out.
The Gity Manager said the Plan had been revier�ed by the Park and Recreation Commission
and they recommentled approval of the plan. F{e said the Plan had been submitted to the
Council a couple of �veeks previously. fie said the Co:�ncil should review the Plan
pieae by piece. . '
Councilman Breider asked.�•�hat was being talked about when a bikeway or walkway was
ind9cated. He questioned if this would be a dirt trail or an asphali path.
Mr. Jerrold Boardman, Planning Assistant, addressed the Council and said there would
be three or fout~ alternative types of biket��ays and tivalkways. He said this could be
from a�� asphait bike path to a line incorporated in the City streei.s. He said some
areas provide paths wi�ich are stripped and separated from the car traffic and p°destrian
traffic. H� said a third type would be just a desianated bike route vdhich a�ould merely
point out the route and caution cars for bikes on the street. He said the plan points
out the possible routes for these proposals, but �:his is not set to the specific areas
noted in the plan. Flnoiher methoc� �-�ou�d be to separate the bi�ke and walking traffic
by placing these areas on the opposite sides of the street. He said there could also
be a physical separation by the use of curbing. iir. Boardmar pointed out the various
possibilities of types of �-dalkiti�ays and bikel��ays from a booklet in which the Denver '
plan is illustrated.
'fhe City Manager elaborated on the reason for this being brought to the Council at the
present time. H� listed the first reason to be the energy crisis, and said the bike
is being used as another mode of transportation. Fle said, secondl,y, the City has a very
fine parl: system �•�hich can be connected for access by the creation of these routes.
He said this would be a safety measure for the children of the City and protection
for them.
Fhe City Manager pointed out another important reason for adopting this type of plan
would be for the possible acquisition of State and Federal Funding. He said there
is an increasing pror,otion on the State and Federal levels for this type of plan. ,
Ttte City Manage�- ir�forined the Counci] that some of the other comnunities had started
working on plans such as this after Fri�ley had begun their plan, and some of the
plans have been started. tie sUid the other areas have surpassed the City of Fridley
with progress in this area. He said he would suggest 1:hat i;he plan be approved in
concept on a City wide basis. � -
Councilman [3reider said he ���as havinq a problem understanding the physica] implications
of the plan. Ile recalled Jackson Street as an er.ample, but said any street could be
used. He saicl��rhen the proposal fot° the side�„alk was suggested, the plan for the
sidcwalk would go ri�ht Chrough the trces that had becn planted in this area. He
' ' • ' .

REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF MAY 20, 1974 PAGE 10
pointed out the question of the creation of a walkway or bikeway on Ballet Street
and said it is barely wide enough for t4��o cars to pass each other. He questioned
ho�a a bikeway would be put in this area. He said he o�ould like to see or find
out the ans«ers to the physical prof�lems. .
Mr. Boardman said this was a general plan and the Parks and Recreation Comr�ission
had indicated priorities of the plan to be acquisition of land and also execution
of the plan for the basic safety of the bicycle traffic. �dr. Qoardman said he
would suggest the local Cit1Ze11s be talked to about the bike and ti�:alkv:ays in their
own area. He said the Feople in an area would have the best idea of ti�here this
type of thing ti�rould be needed ar.d if it is needed. He said it would also be
determined ho�,�r much it tlould be used. He explainzd to the Council that there are
plans undertivay for a grcuo of students to con�plete a survey of the park usage in
the City by actually sperdinq time in the parks and deter}nining hot�i and when they
are used. He said it �-rould also determine ho,�! many people are using the parks.
Ne saici h� would also like io find out from the people haw they arou7d like to use
the parks. "
� Mr. Boardm�n po�inted out that the plan should be gone through street by street and `
, s�ep by step. He again meni:ioned the plan that had been proposed e,rould make all '
of the neighborhoods accessable to a17 of the City. Ne stated, this wauld make
the City safer for pedestrians �nd also bikei°s.
The City Ptanager stated he believed Councilman Breider's concerns to be pertinent
�' and he would come back vrith p��ys�cal examples or the plan. 7he City Manager said he
; believed this pian Kould probably seem an asset to the City by some and take a�•ray
j the rights of oi:h�rs. He said there would be strong feelings on both sides of this
� proposal. Ne said all of tP�e inforination should be researched thoroughly before
the people are brought in for public input on the plan. {ie said if this is not
i done, it would create unnecessary and heated problems.
�; P�layor Li'ebl ayreed that the Council should be made aware of all aspects of the plan
��. ' before the public input is s�ught. He suggested a meeting of the Parks and Recreation
� Commission and Gouncil to establish priorities and goals. He said it would be
important to knov� all of the as{�ects of tl�e plan. He added, if someone is told
there ti��ould be a bi4;eway in i:he back of his home, it would be apparent ho�:� he
iwou7d react. (�iayo�, Liebl said he had heard that there was some objection from
, the park people about the prior•ities of the plan. I�e said if the Council and the
I Commission could come to some ayreement, this �vould stimulate the whole area.
Mr. Boardman said there are no definite priorities in the plan. He indicated
that the majority of the bike 1:�°affic in the City is on the heavily traveled roads
such as Mississippi Street and 7th Si;reet. He said if priorities:are determined,
these should be top priority, but the recon�ienc�ations are flexible.
I Counciman t3reider said the creation of the best possible routes such as in Riverview
; Heiqf�ts and Jackson Street just create traffic problems. He said some of these areas
are just speed��rays. Councilman Greider said he thought it vrould be a lot more
difficult to set up bikev�ays than sidewalks. Courcilmar areider said if thei,e is
� a.problem in a.traffic area, and 9t would bebest for the neighborhood to install
, some improvement, a�hen ti�e oeople are contacted, there are many different opinions
! because all af the people would not be eff°cted in the same manner and not all of
, them have the same opinion. �
� Mr. 6oardman said the information that ��till be obtained in the survey and the
� studies i�hich �•�i11 be made would rrovide detailed information for a complete
;, recommendation. fie said not studies of any type have been done on the park usage
� or ho�•r many people use the various facilities in the City parks. He said this would
i be important information for th� formulation of the park pla«. •
! Councilman Breider said he would like to table the Comprehensive Park Plan until
aftcr the co�nplet;ion of the survey and stu:�ies of the various neighborhoods. Fle
said after this is done ard the priorities have been established the plan could be
, adopted and the City could apply for-funding. .
' hir. Qoard!nan explained the survcy would be do,�e by someone locating in the �ark for
� the entire day ancl recording the n�m��ber of p�ople usi�ig the park and in whai; way.
'� He said they raeuld �lso ask th�� prople �.�hat i:ype of usa�e thcy would want iii �he

Counci)man Breider askPd what kind of time frame would be involved in the survey and
studies proposed•. ��ir. Qoardman said this ��ould be completed in from six months to
a year. f�e said this would depend on the detail of the information obtained and
sought.
Councilman Breider asked if the Comprehensive Park Plan ti�ras to be submitted �o any
group, or if it ��ras an internal documental plan. P1r. Boardn�an said this was a City
plan which �•�ould be required fnr ihe federal funding. He said ihere would be plenty
of time before this funding �rould be sought and this would be June 1, 1976.

and after this, cietermine priorities and go after.the federal funding. Seconded by
Counciln�an tJtter.
The City R1anager cautioned the Council to briny this proposal to the people in a
careful way. He said this ��rould also apply to those avho would be handling the survey
or• people cou]d get the wrong ide�. He sa;d if the citizens' committee ���ould be
formed,"they could keep the people in`ormed on the proposal, He �aid if this vaould
not be handled in a careful n�ann2r, it could tu�^n into a critical and emotional
�social issue. •

for members of the Council indicating the various types of sidewalk improvement
throughout the entire City. �
Mayor�Liebl read the various codes and proposals for use a�oud to the Council and
audience. {;e said tne only requests that ha��e come to the City for the instal7ation
of sidewalks had cor,;e from the var9ous schoo7 d9stricts, and so��etimes it is �
impossible to comply with these requests because the peoi�le of the area oppose the
improvement. li� su�id he only knew of one area where the people may �,rant a side°.�alk
at the present tir��e. He asked Councilman Greider if there should be a publiC hearing
set for the side�f�alk proposal in the Jackson Street area,
Councilman areider said not at the present tirne. Counci7r�an areider explained he
had {irst proposed the installation of the side�,valk from Osborne Road to Lyric
Lane and the people thought this ���as from 73r�i to Osborne Road. He said no;� there
is trou6le.
Mayo),. Liebl asked the members of the Council if �ny ot' them had any requests for
public hearings for the installation of sidev�alFs �vithin i:he City. Councilman
E3reider said there would be no requ�st at this i:ime �n 41ard I.
Councilman Starwalt said the only area in Ward II ��hich is in iirmiediate need
of the installation of sideti��alis is currently included in the Street improvement
project on Nlississippi Street from Old Central to St�nson [3oulevard,
Courtcilman Nee questioned the portion of Mississippi Street which a�as indicated '
on the map.and asked if this would be included in the improv�m�nt of the underpass,
Councilman Nee said if there is money availahle, he �,�ould like some sidevaalks •
on East River� Road. He said this ���ould be if the people are not assessed for the
improvement. • i
htayor LTebl asked if this 4•�ould be in the area of the school. Councilman Nee said
ti�is would be his only priority area. !1e said iie could not determine if t}iere would

Mr. Harris poi�nted out that there is a large amount of fill available in this area.
He questioned if this is a public area under public domain. He said the City is in
need of fill in many areas and he questioned ifi this fill could be stocked piled for
future use rather than just alloi•�ing it to drift a�Yay. He advised the Council that
the fiill is highly compacted and quite valuable.
The City I�ianager said the City does save all material possib]e for oi:her projects,
and the only time the fill is disposed of is when the City does no1; need it.
The City tianager told hir. Flarris if he ��.�anted the fill and the City did not need it,
Mr. liarris could have it. .

f�ir. Harris said he believe�i the �-rhole 1�1-1 and P1-2 ir.dusti°ial sectioii to be tota77y
inadequate, tle pointed out an example to be that only one parking sta71 is
required for 1,000 square feet and i:his parking is to be a block_a4�ay from the

..!
F1r. Harris further pointed out that the�°e are definitions of the required setbacks
for front and �ack yards, but there is nothing on side y�:rds. He said he thought this
entire secCion should be looked at. H� said he though± i:hat in some areas, the policing
po�ver of tl�e staif go�s beyond this. k;e said the buildif�g board does not do the
screening of the applicants, the staff does this.
The City Att.arney said the City had revised the building code before Mr. Narris was
seated�on the Planning Co��imission. He said if there are deficiencies in the Code,
Pdr, Narris should make this known to the Planning Con�nission who would make recon��nendations

� laid out. He explained the area people would not feel any ownership of the plan
I if they were not involved in the discussions. He stressed, they should have some
', input before the plan is finished. He thought the plans would have a better chance
��,�

of succeeding this way than if the City says, this is what we have for you.
The City Manager said he had hoped the Planning Commission would hold the Public
Hearing only if the Council would wish to get into this venture, the Planning
Commission could hold the hearing before the item is reviewed by the Council.
The City Manager said the staff was trying to give the background to the Planning
Commission and they would like some indication on which way the Council would like
them to go on this matter at the present time. Ne said this is a difficult area
with many property owners and some of them have very strong feelings.
Mayor Liebl questioned what direction this would be, and asked Councilman Nee
to spell it out. Ne asked if he wanted some grand urban renewal. Councilman Nee
responded he wanted it to be a workable program and there had not been any mention
of neighborhood interaction, and this is what he would like to include.
Mr. Richard Harris, Member of the Planning Commission, said the Planning Commission
was confused at what it should do concerning this matter. He said the Planning
Commission did not know if they are to have a public hearing on this matter.
The City Manager recalled and explained this matter had come up when there was an
item before the Council on 57th and this request was denied. He said during the
discussion on the matter, there was general concensus that the whole area should
be looked at for future development and what should be encourag°d. He further
explained the staff put together some background material for the Planning Gorrnnission.
He said he thought it would be up io the Planning Commission on how far they wanted
to go before having any hearings. He thought if the P7anning Commission were to
have the hearings, this would give the Council more input.
Councilman Breider said in his mind there was a problem with the development of the
area. He said the people have not come together to make the development of the '
area worthwhile. He recalled with the development of the telephone building, one ,
property owner felt he was landlocked. Councilman 6reider felt that Councilman �
Nee had a point, and the people of the area should have a chance to voice their
feelings. He said he would like to see how this commercial plan vrould relate to
the property otvners. He said th� people would have to be in a position to understand
the situation and the overall plan and show thein their lot lines in relation to the
overall plan. He said this is a very tentative thing, and it would not be
of too much value to have a hearing before the Planning Commission before this is done.
Mayor Liebl said five different plans had been submitted at the time of the
rezoning of the area, and this aras discussed for two and a half years. He said
finally there was a plan developed which uras acceptable to a great number of the
people. He said it was the recommendation of the Planning Commission to concur
with the plan and rezone with certain stipulations. Ne further explained the
area has lots which are 40 feet in frontage and the stipulation was not to develop
any parcel less than 200 feet in frontage. He said this what the people thought
was acceptable and practical at the time and the land was rezoned and they agreed
to get together and develop the land for commercial use.
MOTIQN by Councilman Nee that the Administration prepare some plans for the
development of the area and call in the people of the area and have some discussion
with the neighborhood to get the neighborhood plans and ideas for the overall
development plan of the area. Seconded by Councilman Breider, Upon a voice vote,
all voting aye, Mayor Liebl declared the motion carried unanimously.

questioned the City Attorney on this point, The City Attorney suggested squaring
away this point before any Council action wou7d be taken in this direction. The
City Attorney said the State Statutes preempts what the City can do in regard to
the handling of variances.
Mayor Liebl asked if these statutes would direct the action on recomnendations
of variances to the Qoard of Appeals at the present time.
The City Attorney said he did not want to say before checking. He said the question
would be if the Environmental Quality Commission could serve in place of the Board
Appeals.

of the stalls rather than the reduction in number of stalls would be legal.

CONSI
N
Mayor Liebl stated the Subcommittee had recommended approval w-ith eight stipulai:ions.
He read the stipulations.
Mr. Harris said he would like to use precast curbing because it would be impossible
to drain the top of the buikfing in this area with the poured curbing unless it
was constructed with holes ar7d drain tile. He added, in the winter months, the
poured curbing would hold back the water and create ice. Ne said they would not
get the drainage that v�as needed and there would be a build up of water in the
back of the building. He said the precast curbing ��rould be pinned and the purpose
for this installation would be to keep the cars away from the bui7ding.
The City Manager said the Engineering Staff would work with Mr. Harris for a
solution to the drainage problem in the area, and if there is a problem, it would
be bi�ought back to the Council. �
Mayor Liebl asked if Mr. Harris was planning to follow the eighth stipulation which
dealt with the screening of the parking area. Mr. Harris explained he did not
know what would be done about the screening. He noted he did own the adjacent
property. He also questioned the installation of berming indicating there are
trees in the area which are greater than three inches in diameter and could not
be removed for this berming. Counciltnan Breider said the method of screening
would be a flexible thing.
The City Manager stated the code is trying to tone down the objectionable material
from being in site. He stressed, this area is shaping up, and this is one of the
extra things that is required to continue this enhancing of the appearance.

Mr. Harris assured the Council that what ever is done, he would do a good job.
He explained his business to be building of concrete p7ants, not br•ick plants.
Councilman Breider asked if Mr. Harris was planning on constructing other
buildings in the area and Mr. Harris said yes. Councilman Breider asked if
if these other buildings would be of the same type of design. Mr. Harris said
this would depend on the property being used. He explained there is a difference
in lot depth and this ��rould control the design of the construction.
Councilman Utter questioned if Mr. Harris is planning on taking care of the
material in the other area. Mr. Harris said he planned to hold an auction in the
near future. He stated he is unable to locate the owner of the slide and would like
to find the man before he just gets rid of the slide. Councilman Nee asked if Mr.
Harris would be able to obtain legal ownership of the slide because it had been
in this area for a length of time. Mr. Harris said this may be possible, but
he felt some obligation to the investment of the ov�ner and would like to attempt
to locate him before this means is sought.
MOTION by Councilr�an Breider to approve the issuance of a building permit to
Harold and Richard Harris for the construction of a warehouse to be located
at 7780-7790 P1ain Street N. E., with the eight recommended stipulations of the

to set poured curb or precast curbing be left up to the Engineeing Department.

of the complex, stucco.
Mr. Dante pointed out the location of the swimning pool, bridge to the second
deck, putting range, and accessory building for the recreation area. He explained
the access from the garage areas to the apartment complex building.
Councilman Breider asked if the ins�de apartments would have patios to the
court yard area and t�1r. Dante said there would be no patios or balconies. Mr. Dante
said there would be some access from the party rooms to this area.
Mayor Liebl asked how large the swimming pool would be and Mr. Dante said this

because this is considered a risk and a dangerous addition. He said the depth of the
pool would be from 8 to 10 feet.

plan and would like the project to get going. I�e said the staff recommendation ti�ould
be that the Ccuncil approve the plan with ti�e stipulations listed by the Building
Standards-Design Control Subcommittee. He commented, this would complete the
requirements of the City as far as variances and plan approval.
Mr. Dante addressed the Council and said there are nine stipulations in the minutes
of the Subcommittee. He said he would like to go thr•ough the stipulations one by one
to make their position a part of the record.

to the Subco�nittee had also been c�mpleted he said.
Mr. Dante continued stating the fourth stipulation which said a drainage plan would
be used as set up by theCity of Fridley, avould be agreeable. He further stated,
if there are any questions or additions to this portion of the stipulation, he
would like to know.
He went on to the fifth stipulation �vhich said if a future storm sewer system is
needed to drain the area adequately, Wall Corporation �•�ould pay their fair share.
He said 4Ja11 Corporation had agreed to this. He added, they definitely would pay
their fair share, whatever fair share is encumbant on them, this would be their
responsibility.

by reducing the size of the indoor stall sizes as required by the Board of Appeals

Mr. Dante west on to the eight stipulation that parking will be 5 feet off of the
garage, separation made by a poured conc�°ete curb, six inches by 78 inches, and
that the area between the curb and the bu-ild-ing will have a low maintenance material.
He explained the plan for the building had been changed and this stipulation was no
longer applicable because there would be no parking ua to the garages. He said
this was originally stipulated to keep the cars from d�maging the bui7ding, but all
of the parking would be ii� the open area, not facing th� garages. He said they did
not want to take tl�e chance of damaging any part of the curbing and by redesigning,
the stipulation would no longer apply. He also stated, there would be no need for
the installation of the low maintenance material up against the building.
Councilman Utter asked if there would be some type of curbing separating the
building fran the parking area. Mr. Dante said there would be some type of
planting or foliage.
Mr. Dante continued stating the ninth stipulation read that there will be planting
used as a buffer on the south side of the cemplex to provide complete screening
from the R-1 praperty. He explained when he arrived iri hlinnesota from California,
he was pleased with the t�pe of landscaping witn the absence of fencing. He
explained the view from the R-1 area into the ponding area of the camplex would
, be a pleasant one, and he doubled if those who t��ill reside in this area 4•aould like
this type of screening.
Councilman Utter asked if there would be some type of berming of the parking
area. Mr. Dante said this plan is in the landscape plan and fihe Wall Cor�oration
would have to make the area pleasing to sell the R-1 property to a residential
developer. '
Mayar Liebl stated Mr. Oante did not aoree to the stipulations numbered eight
and nine. Mr. Dante said since the change in complex, they no
longer apply,
Mayor Liebl said there would have to be eeeing and . Dante agreed.

REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 3, 1974
PAGE 10
the last meeting of the Council, this item was discussed by the Council and the
Council took action that the $20,000 park fee for Wa77 Corporation be reduced
to $8,000, and that tuio tennis courts be provided for the R-3 area, He said
Wall Corporation would have the choice of providing the $20,000 to the park
fund, or paying $8,000 and installing two tennis courst. He added, the only
question would be the provision of the park fee, not who uses the property.
The City Manager said he felt this had been a reasonable compromise.
Mayor Liebl asked P1r. Dante if he would provide the tennis courts for the
apartment users and Mr, Dante said yes. Mayor Lieb7 asked if the swimming pool
would be for the apartment users and hir. Dante said yes.
Mayor Liebl said in order to develop this property, the surface water would have
to be taken care of to allow this to be developable property. Mayor Liebl
continued, the Wall Corporation said they would assume this responsibility.
He said he did not know the cost of the ponding facility or the recreational area
and asked what kind of money was being talked about in this type of installation.
Mr. Dante said there would be $125,000 to $150,000 spent in the area for ponding.
He said he had received an estimate from Carlson and LaVine that the cost of the
tennis court would be from $9,000 to $70,000 each. He said the s���ir,�ming pool
without the building for the swimining pool would run $15,000. This would be a pool
equipment building and would be in the area of from $7,000 to $8,000. He said there
would be some expense for theputting green and this would not include the 7andscaping
of the entire complex area. He said this would be $185,000 �o $200,000 without
the landscaping. He said this would be another 525,000 to $30,000. Mr. Dante
said this would be an investment of from $210,000 to $230,000 or a quarter of
a million dollars. He continued stating money is costing 18%.
Councilman Starwalt recalled at the previous meetings of the Council, there was
discussion on whether or not the open areas would be available to the people
outside of the complex and whether or not there t�dould be passagevrays created
throuyh the area for access. He added, at that time, Wall Corporation was against
the installation of the walkways stating the park like area would be reserved
for the apartment tenants. He said now, there is a different story.
Mr. Dante commented that this is not a different story. He read from the minutes
of the December 10, 1973 Counci] meeting which concerned the item. He said five
single family lots had been taken from the plat to allow for the open space for
the complex. He said at this time, there was a question of who would maintain the
area and take on the liability for this area. He said the Wall Corporation is
maintaining the area and also responsibility for the liability. He further stated,
the plan for the residential lots had been with the depth of 180 feet and the City
had determined they should be 120 feet deep.
Mr. Dante said this area would not be fenced off by the Wall Corporation, they
wanted to keep the view for the single family property owners. He added, this
will be a very desirable location.
Mr. Dante questioned v;here the trade off would be if the original expenditure
would have been $20,OG0 for the park fees and now he would have to pay $8,000
to parks and install another $20,000 in tennis courts.
The City Manager said he thought this entire question had been resolved, He
stated the park fee was quoted for the residential lots and this is according to
ordinance.
Mr. Dante expiained the method of figuring the park fee to arrive at the $8,050, which
had been done by Mr. Darrel Clark, Con�n�umiiy Development Administrator, and came
to 35¢ per square foot. He said his concern would be spending the $8,000 for the
park fee and at the same time spending the $20,000 for the tennis courts. He said
Wall Corporation cannot go along with this. He stated they would have to pay
3 to 3'a points over the prime inLerest rate which is at 18 to 18%z% per annum
and this area cannot support this type of development.
The City Manager said if Wall Corporation did not want to put in the tennis courts,
they could pay the City $20,000.
Mr. Dante referred to a le±ter received by Wall Corporation on May 24 which indicated
there would be additional changes in the hard shell for the plat which wnuld be an
' l ���
, REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 3, 1974
PAGE 11
' additional expendature of $4,000 for k�all Corporation. He said there was a meeting
with the City on May 10, 1974 and none of the changes had been made at this time and
the Engineer had prepared the fina] hardshell. He said when ihe City later came up
with changes, it had cost the Wall Corporation �4,000 to make these changes.

The City Manager said there had been many corununications sent to the 4da11
Corporation and they had been trying to get this done for two �ears. He said he
would not want to get into this type of discussion at this time, he wou7d like
some agreement reached for settlement of this matter so Wall Corporation could
get going on construction.
Mayor Liebl said he felt the Counci] �-ras responsible to see that recreational
facilities are provided in the R-3 area.
Mr. Dante said he vaould put in the tennis courts, the putting green, the
swimming pool, the storrn sewer system, the lighting and the ponding area, but
they did not want to pay the $8,OOU for the R-1 area.
MOTION by Councilman 6reider that the building permit be approved based on the
nine stipulaiions as recommended by the �ui7ding Standards-Design Control Sub-
committee and changino �the first stipulation to read that one tennis court be
provided in the R-3 area for the 144 unit apartments and that $8,000 for the
R-1 area be paid for the park fund fee for total expenditure of approximately
$20,000. Seconded by Councilman Utter.
Councilrnan areider said the other deve7opers throughout the City had paid 10%
and if it e��ere not for this, there may not be a Co�nmons Pat°k or a P�leado��dlands
Park. He stated Mr. Dante had given the Council a forceful argwnent, but the
Wall Corpot°ation had been allowed to build the T�4q 11111$S because the �-1 area
had been credited for the density. He said the Wall Corporation would have
to be treated in the same way as the other deve]opers in the City and this is the
intent of his motion.
The City Attorney said the motion should state the park fee is made in lieu of
properiy donation and the money Nrould be put in the general fund.
Mr. Dante said the progr•ess of the develapment had come to the point vdhere they
were ready to go ahead with the exception of this one concern. He said he
would like to see tl�is concern resolved and then 6Ja11 Corporation could get
started u�ithin a monrh. He said they would not be Lack for any more variances,
this would be their final appearance at the City Council.
UPON A ROLL CALL VOTE, Mayor Liebl vot9ng nay, Counci7man Utter voting nay,

courts for the 144 unit apartment bui?ding and reduce the $8,000 park fee to
$4,000 in lieu of the R-1 contribution of land to parks, and issue the building
permit with the other eight stipulai;ions. Seconded by Councilman Starwalt for
clarification.
Councilman Sta.��=:'.t asked if the contribution, $20,000, had included the R-1
area. Counci:- Ereider said yes, it had been based on the entire area.
Councilman St�; .,:;t said if he had known this, he would have supported Councilman
Breider's motic,:. •
Councilman areider said the fair amount under the ordinances of the City would be
$20,436. Counciiman Breider said he,would not vote in favor of the motion made
by Councilman Utter. He said he had never worked so hard to get something for
an apartment compiex. He said when the other builders in the City build such
a complex, they come in and their plans include such items. He said the only
item the Council had not gone after was the putting green. He said if this
motion was approved, the City would be giving the Wall Corporation two tennis
courts for their complex in lieu of the park payment.
Councilman Breider said he feared the next developer wouid come to the City and
be required to put $20,000 into parks and put in a swimming pool and the City
will deduct this from the park fee. He said this could include additional items
2� ��-=

tradeoff with Wall and the park fee was reduced to $8,000 if they would put in

Councilma�� .'���ter. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Liebl declared the

� ' Mr. Gharles Johnson, 6580 Channel Road, addressed the Council and said the primary
reason for requesting the "No Parking" signs was a matter of safety. lie explained
there are many young adults living and visiting through the center portion of the
' roadway and these young people speed up the street and hit top speed right in
' front of the apartment complex. He explained the 15 to 20 unit apartment is being
rented by many people with young children and there is no playqround facilities
for them, so they play in the street and in and out of the parked cars in front

of the apartment buildings. He said this parking is on both sides of the street.
He said this parking is on both sides of the street. He sa•id the children from
the apartment buildings use the drivel��ays on the west side of the street to ride
their bikes in and these df,ives are s7oped sharp7y to the street and the children
cannot stop if a car avas coming. He further explained that the cars cannot
see the children coming out of the drive��v�ays because of the cars being parked on
both sides of the street. Mr. Johnson feared someone would get killed in this area
if something is r,ot done. He said another reason for this request is because
the cars park in front of the mail bo;es and the mail carrier is unable to get
into the boxes. He also said the people from the apar°tments use the driveways
of the people on the west to turn around in. I�'ir. Johnson said he is tired of
picking up garbage that has been thrown there by the apartment tenants and guests.
Ms. Joyce Ames, Manager of the apartment, addressed the Council and said there
is a severe hand9cap 9n the amount of parking for the apartn�ents. She explained
there is oi�ly one park�ir�g stall per unit and many of the people residing there
have tv,�o cars.
Councilman StarG��alt said he had talked to the manager of the building and advised
her to contact the resicents of the buildings and stress the importance of not
infringing on the residential property o�vners. He agreed there is a p��oblem
with th� amaunt of parking available �t the apartments.
Councirran Stur�,�alt said if the apartmeiit tenants would just park on their own
side of tl�e street, this would be an aid in this situation. He suggested giving them
a period of 30 cia,ys io sP�a.pe up the situation. He said he would be reluctant to
put up the no parking signs, this would allo�v for an increase in the speeding
probl e�ns .
Ms. Ames said there is 22 units in the building and only 22 parking spaces. She
further stated t�nere ��aauld be no place for the guests of the apartinent tenants to
park if the signs were installed. She said they pick up the garbage and try to
keep the area clean.
Mr. Roy Boone, 6564 Channel Road, said the single family residents on the street
are wi1ling to have the no parking signs installed on both sides of the street
because they believe they have drive��rays sufficient to handle their own parking.
F10TION by Councilman Starwalt to allota a 30 day trial period to deterrnine if the
problerns could be taken care of, and after or before this, if there is still
a problem, the no parking signs would be placed on the t-rest side of the street
and absolutely erforced. Seconded by Counci]man Utter.
Mr. Johnson acidressed the Council and said it could be determined �vithin the
period of a few days. He said if the apartrr�ent residents would use the parking
lot instead of the str~eet, �here tiaould pt�ababiy not be any problems. He added,
he had not seen the parking lot used to 60% capacity since moving to the area.

' Inc., distributors of Schlitz, Old Milwaukee, and Lowenbraue beers t-�ith offices
on St. Anthony Boulevard in Minneapolis.
Mayor Liebl stated the procedure of the issuance of �ndustrial revenue bonds
, has been established by the Legislature to he7p promote industrial growth in
cities. Mayor Liebl said he had thoroughly read the material presented by the
Hi-Mount group and stated the zoning of the proposed property is correct for this
type of usage and there would be no problein in this respect.

� Mayor Liebl said the industrial revenue bands Yiad never been used for development
in the City of fridley, all of the develop:nent is privately financed.
Mayor Liebl asked how long the Hi-Mount Ccmpany had been in existance. PSr. Paul
Pohle said it �-das formed in 1�larch to bring in a franchise for Olympia Beer. Ne
said the company is solely cr!ned by his bro�her and himself. He explained the
ownership of the other Company, Pohle Sales, Inc., and explained it was physically
irr�possible to do a good jct� ofi cperating the cor�pany at the same plant. He
explained with this type of operation, it is necessary to establish a location
on the rail, He said this c:{�eratio�� is cu�°rently being o�E,cra�ed in Braoi:lyn Center
and this is in a buildii�p thut had a short �erm lease. Ffe further explained the
new facility would have to b� obtained 61� October because tl�ie building now being
used in not heated and the product would freeze if left any longer ti�a.n this.
He explained this to be i:he reason for such sho:�t notice T� the City on this
considerationo f1r. Pohle a�lso axplained they had originally planned to construct
an addition to theit° existing faci7ity. He said the contractor had been se�ected,
but the elevations rrade the pro�osal unacceptable. He said the Fridley properf:y
was found after this.
Mr. Paul Pohle said he would lil:e to obtain concentual approval o� the proposa7
from the Council Urith authority being given tn sane person so the Company would
not have to wait until tl�e next month for this determinai;•ion.
Councilman Breider asked the ar��ount of th� net worth of Hi-hloun�t. Mr. Paul
Pohie said he cauld not tell ihe Cour�ciZ tP;is at this point. Ne exp7�:.ine� tl�at
the operation is growing so r�pidly, it WUU�d not be possible to siate an amount.
Mr. John Cairr,s addressed the Council and exnlained th� uncier�,rit�r had �ase�i
the concei~n on th� sales ar the Pohle Sales Company. He said in this case the
City would only hold the lease, there wo�.�ld be no administrative rnainzei�anc,e.
Mr. Cairns presented a brief history of this type of funding and stated it was
established in 1967 and there had been 1Q9 issues oP such bonds, six of thein
in St. Paul with only one fai7ure thiasfar. He stated this type of funding t�tould
provide a reduced interest rate for the Corrpany. He cortinued, his presentation
emphasiziily th? point that i:his would provide the City 4��ith a r;ei;hod of ass?st9rg
industrial gro��,th witnout any exposure to th2 project. H� stressed the point
that the City would not have any financial t�utput, nor would ihey have any
liability if the Coinpany failed, this is a legal poirt in this typF of issuance.
He stated, this will not b� ti�e City's last request, t4iere is a great deal of
interest in this type of financing.
The Finance Director said if the City would like to employ a third party to
� research this proposal, th��,� G,�ould be no expense to the City. He said t'rie City
would not have any financia' _sponsibil-ity, the only connection there taould be
is that the bonds would say "::+ City of Fr-id7ey" on them,
' The City Attorney stated h ',l work vaith the Attorney for Ni-Mount and the
Qonding Company, and if hc �t would be necessar�y to obtain the services of
an attorney that specializ: aor�ds, he knew of several in the area and would
call on them for aid.
' The City Attorney agreed wit:i the statement of Mr. Cairns that there is no
obligation on the City's part. He said the insurance company would take care
of the ad�ninistrative tasf:s such as the making of the payments. He mentioned he
had not examined the policy.

Councilman Starwalt questioned if there had been any cost relationships set up.
Mr. Cairns said this would be researched by the underwriter. Mr. Cairns explained
the methods used in the appraisal of this type of property vaith no construction
in relation to a property with improvements.
Mr. Cairns continued his presentation asking the Council for approval of the
concept at the present meeting so the parties involved could get together and
work toward the construction of the fac�lity. He said final approval would not be
given by this conceptue.l appi°oval, this �aouid have to �e done by the authorizing
of signatures on the various documents. He said thisr�ould be done after the City
Attorney and City P1anagei° have reviewed ihe papers.

CONSIDERF,TICiJ OF REFUhdDI";G BO�+DS ISSUL-D Th 1970:
Mr. Segar Swanson, representative of Etilers and Assosciat�s addressed the'Gouncii
and ex�l; ined i,his i:�ou]d concern the :Ln;provement Bonds ot 1970. He said it is
possible to ob+.;ain advance refunding bonds �,�hich a�ould be at a rate of inierest
which vaculd be '; zo 3i4% loJ:er than these previously mentionec�. He said the
current market rate is 6.77%.
Mr. Swanson co��±inued to exp�ain there are two methods available to the City
with this type of proposal. One !7e�:hod, he said ti•�ould be over a short period of
time witl� the savings of $7f�,996.2.5, �nd the other over u lona�r period of tirne
with a projected savings o� �137,G46,25, Ne further er.r�lained most cit�ies prefer
the stierter term because of the expectation of the decrease ii� the value over
the lo��ger pEr�icd of time.
Mr. Sti•ranson saici the seller of the (!. S. government securities k�ould establish
a trust account and vriil underwrite the cost of the refunding. Ne stated there
would be no cost to the City. He also pointed out tf�at the City tvould hold all
options to stop at any point, and this ��ould be without cost. He said the City
would enter intc a centraci: with tne seller of the U. S. securities and Ehlers
and Associates only.
Mr. Swanson said he v�ould like to have the Council consider the concept and the
approach.
The City Dlanager recalled this liad been done before by the City. The Finance Director
said this had beer� done in 1965.

Mr. Swanson explained that the last time this was done by the City, the City had
' paid the fees, now, it would be the responsibility of the trustee to do this.

deCTared Che motion carried unanimously and stated the public hearing had been

The Assistant Engineer, Mr. Richard Sobiech, explained that the request had

wanted to construct a loading dock and this was in the area of the property where
;
- � 2:5?
PUBLIC HfARING MEETING Of JUNE 10, 1974 PAGE 2
the zoning is R-1 at the present time. He said in order to proceed with the
proposed construction, there would have to be a zoning change. Mr. Sobiech explained
that at the time that the property was purchased, it was not known that half of
it was corrmercial and half was residential. He said the rezoning request would
be to enable the applicant to construct a loading dock and remodel the facilities.
Mr. Frank Niznick, 191 Liberty Street N. E, addressed the Council and said this
may effect the evaluation of the residential area and increase the traffic. He
said it is the general concurrance of the area people that there is a lot of
traffic at the present time, and if there �as any expansion, there would be more.
Mr. Clarence Godlewski, 228 Ely Street N. E, addressed the Council and questioned
why there had been a request for an increase in the amount of parking space. He
said there was five stalls and they are to install ten. He pointed out that there
would be houses across from this faci]ity, the zoning is R-1.
Mayor Liebl said there would be no problems with the improvement of the front of
the building there would be flagstone installed and also planting of shrubs,
Councilman Nee said the plans do not call for the expanding of the building.
Mr. Godlewski said if there would be any future expansion, this would be to the
back of the building. He said it would be possible to build a big buiiding and
increase the truck traffic in this area.
The Assistant Engineer said the property would have to be rezoned to constuct the
loading docks, they cannot be constructed in an R-1 area. The Assistant Engineer
said there are three lots between the building and the railroad tracks.
MOTION by Councilman Nee to close the Public Hearing on the rezoning request by
Berkeley Pump Company. Seconded by Councilman Starwalt. Upon a voice vote, all

diamond. He pointed out that the recreational equipment had been removed from the

RECONSIDERATION OF A REQUEST TO ALLOW THE UPGRADING AND IMPROVEMENT OF THE LOT
The Assistant Engineer poirtted out the plan for the area on the ma� on the
screen. He indicated thefirst proposal was for the remodeling and improvement
of the building. He explained there were some items theapplicant would like to
delete from the plan for economic reasons. He explained`the stipulation concerning
the installation of the green areas on the south and north front corners are to
be 9 feet and 16 feet respectively and the applicant had indicated this v�ould
not be feasible.
Mr. Don Lunde, Pasco Marketing, addressed the Council and said the top manage-
ment of the Company said they had to stay within the budgeted amount with this
improvement. Mr. Lunde presented a picture to the Council of another facility
which was improved as the proposed facility would be improved.
Councilman Nee said he believed the stipulation was to utilize the open space at
the side of the facility. Mr. Lunde said if this area is out 16 feet, the light
would have to be taken out. He said they would be ab7e to plant the live plants
on the sides, this would be manageable.
Mayor Liebl asked what the total expenditure for the improvement would be. Mr.
Lunde answered, this would be from $5,000 to $6,000. t�1ayor Liebl questioned
which of the stipulations would not be agreeable to Mr. Lunde. Mr. Lunde stated,
this would be the first stipulation concerning the green areas on the south and
north front corners which are to be 9 feet and 16 feet respectively.
Councilman Starwalt said the only p^oblem would be with the first stipulation.
Mr. Luride pointed out that they did not own the building, th�ey were just leasing
it. Mr. Lunde listed the oiher stipulations stating he approved of them and
added, this is much more than had been done in the other building.
Councilman Starwalt asked how tight a schedule the Company was on. Mr. Lunde
said they had planned to be open at the present time and they were in a hurry.
The City Manager walked to the map of the site and proposed the green areas be
moved to the east/west direction and this would alluw for more green areas. Mr.
Lunde agreed to this type of compromise stating he was sure if the stip�alation
were to be enforced as it read, the lights would have to be moved. He said he
would present this proposal to the management of the Company to determine if
they would accept this typz nf compromise.
MOTION by Councilman Starwalt to change the first stipulation to read that the
applicant work something out 4rith the Administration for the placement of the
green areas and approve the building permit with the remainder of the 8 stipulations
as recorrxnended by the Subcommittee and issue the building permit as requested

MOTION by Councilman Nee to pay the Estimates. Seconded by Councilman Utter. Upon

Mr. John Cairns, Counsel for the Poh7e Brothers, addressed the Council and explained
he fiad met with the City Attorney, City Manager, and City Finance Director the previous
Friday and the documents presented to the Council were a result of that meeting. He
further explained that the Pohle Brothers had c�iven their personal guarantee to cover
ar+y loss that may be paid by the holding company if there would be any failure
to complete the lease.
Mr. Cairns said the Council for their preliminary approval of the plan, again.
Ne said this would not be final approval of the plan and the City would not have to
approve the final agreements. He said if ldter the CIty did not approve, the
Canpany would have to obtain another way of financing the building..
Mayor Liebl said he is aware of Chapter 475.67 and the legislation of 1967.
He said Fridiey has an 9ndustrial Com�rnission who has asked people to invest money
in Fridley. He pointed out that the high Industrial and Commercial evaluation in the
City. He said all of the people had come to the City and developed properties on
an equal basis. He stated, if this proposal was approved, this would be setting
a precedent and would be unfair to the other enterprises such as Medtronic and
Onan. He said if the Council as City Fathers would give specia7 consideration to
Mr. Cairn's clients, this would allow them to develop in the City with a lower
interest rate than the others were able to have. Mayor Liebl said he did not think
the City could do this for one development and not the others. He said he did not
think the tax payers in the City wouid want to subsidize industry. Me questioned
who this would hurt and who it would help. He asked if the approval of this concept
would require three votes. The CIty Attorney said all that would be needed is three
votes.
Mr. Cairns-said he was on the Council in Minneapolis when the first industrial revenue
bonds were considered and issued and he agreed, this would be setting a precedent.
, Mr. Cairns said this type of bonding cannot be related to Onan or Medtronics because
they are very large and this type of issue would be to aid the small businesses
that do not have extensive capital. He said this was not the intent of the Federal
' and State governments. He explained that the only large company that had obtained
financing through this type of bonding would be Land 0 Lakes and this had been
for equipm�nt. He voiced resentment at this being done for this large a company.
He said people who are buiiding iarge million dollar buildings would feel this amount
being requested would be a drop in the bucket. He said Hi-Mount is a small industry.
I
I
i
Mr. Cairns said this Company would employ many local people. He continued to
explain this type of financing would seem like a subsidy at first glance, but it
is not a one way street for the City. He said there would be 35 people employed and
also make it possible to develop a parcel of property. He explained there would
ben an increase in revenues to the City because of the development of the property
over that of a large parcel that is vacant. He stat.:d the belief that there would
be a reduction in development of industrial and commercial properties because of the
reduction in convential financing. He cammented that it had been possible to sell
stock to raise capital, but now the trend is to issue bonds. He said he thought
this precedent would be a healthy one for the City. He said with this type of
granantee, there would be no risk at all to the City. He said the only connection would
be that the "City of Fridley" would appear on the bonds. He said this small edge
would only to to the small business,

PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF JUNE 10, 1974 PAGE )7
Councilman Breider questioned the portion of the documents which related to the
insurance of the Pohle Brothers to pay the balance iri case of a failure to
re-lease the facility.
The City Attorney explained there is an insurance policy which would cover the payments
on the lease, and their personal insurance is secondary. He said first liability
would be to Hi-Mount, then after this, it would be the insurance company. He said
if Hi-Mount would go bankrupt, the insurance company has the personal guarantee
of the subrogation from these two individuals. He said the City of Fridley would
not be obligated to make any levy against the property. He said it would be the
intent of the insurance company to seek a new tenant.
Councilman Breider asked if the City would be responsible for finding another
tenant. The City Attorney said the City would have no responsibility for this
whatsoever.
Councilman Breider asked if this were possib7e to issue this kind of personal
guanantee, why did they not finance the building at the present time.
Mr. Cairns explained the personal net worth of the men could not be used to
finance the building of this company. He explained the money is tied up in Pohle
Sales, Inc., and this is not the type of leverage that ti�ould allow them to raise
money. He said this is not the kind of strength that is needed for long term
financing.
Councilman Starwalt questioned why this rate of interest on the bonds would be
higher than those for the advance refunding. Mr. Tom Moore, Underwriter, addressed
the Council and said this would be because this would be a revenue producing business
and the City of Fridley is not obligated for any loss.
Mr. Cairns stated that rather than considering this type of financing setting a
precedent, the Council should think of it as an option. He said in the case of the
business proposed, it is carefwl7y tied together, and the next request may not be.
He said some requests may not have any muscle to back them up financia7ly. He said
this case Burlington-Northern would take the property if there was any failure,
there would be no threat of the City having any responsibility in this instance.
He co�unented, they had been very careful that this building would be a multiple use
building. Warehousing is always multiusable.
Mayor Liebl questioned if another man could come in and ask for this type of
bonding. He said if this woul� come up ail over the City, they could be in
trouble.
7he City Attorney said each request would have to be looked at on the case basis.
Ne said as a tax payer, he would say that no one could get hurt with this type
of bonding. He continued it would provide good jobs and some tax revenue. He said
from the financial and legal standpoints, he couid see no risk involved for the.
City.
Councilman Nee said he had discussed this matter with elected officials in other
areas and he had been told that Minneapolis turns down many more requests than it
approves. He explained that this matter had come up so quickly and hs had not
talked to the community about this type of bonds. Councilman Nee said he had
doubts that this should be accepted without community input. He said on this
basis, he would vote to turn down the request. He questioned why those in Minneapolis
had been turned down.
Mr. Cairns explained the lease guanantee insurance and said it is not very often
that a company would be able to provide this type of insurance. He explained out
of 100 reqaests, there may be about 10 that would be approved. Ne also explained
some request would involve the installation of a very dirty industry, or the
building would not be a multiuse bullding plan. He said there would be a multitude
of factors that would determine this denial.
Councilman Utter said the City has plenty of additional land available for the
development of industrial properties. Ne said other companies had come to the
City and found any means possible to finance their construction without coming
to the City for help. He said he would have to vote against this bond issue.
Mayor Liebl said he could not be sold on this proposal until he had received some
indication on how the cort�nunity felt about this. He said in his opinion, this is
' °n

opposite from the feeling the community has had in building the City to what it
is at the present time.
Mr. Cairns said the ball game had changed and there had been a great deal of
this type of financing within the last 12 months. He explained that this type
of financing is now available to any type of revenue producing enterprise. He
said this is a new tool and the conventional type of financing is not favorable
in development at the present time. He predicted this would be a primary tool
in the development of commercial, industrial and office facilities. He said
the City would not find a better, more protected arrangement than the proposal
of Hi-Mount.
I Councilman Nee said Mr. Cairns had made a good presentation and the package
was a good one. Councilman Nee said he felt Mayor Liebl had voiced the general
feeling at this point, He said from the comments made, he would understand the
concensus of the Counci7 to not use this tool. He also stated he had some other
information that said this would not be approved anyway.
MOTION by Councilman Nee to deny the request for the issuance of industrial
revenue bonds for the construction of the warehouse on the Burlington Northern
property by Hi-Mount. Seconded by Councilroan Utter. Upon a ro71 ca17 vote,
Councilman Utter voting aye, Councilman Breider voting aye, Councilman Starwalt
voting aye, Councilman Nee voting aye, and hiayor Liebl voting aye, Mayor l.iebl

of industrial revenue bonds had been denied.

not be picked because they favored this type of installation according to the

had agreed to pay $15,000 and if the City would pay $5,000, this wou]d leave the
settlement about $2,000 short. He said he would like Council action authorizing the
City to offer the amount of $7,500 to d�spose of this matter. He said if the matter
is not settied in this manner, it would involve a lengthy litigation and would call
far expensive witnesses. Ne said he doubted if the City would be able to obtain

Re: Appointment of City Employee to City Commission
Date: JuZr� 1, 1974
The city council has requested that I research the IegaZ.zty of
appointing a city employee to a city commission, i.e. The Environmental
Commission. The particu.Zar city employee suggested is a member of the
police de,partment. In examining the Civi1 Service Rules arzd Regulations
of the Frid.Zey Pol.ice Department, I note that in Section 24 entitZed
"Prohibited Activities":
"No employee of the department shall ho�d any offi ce or
empZo�m�nt under the city, count�, state., or federal
governmen� or anz� division thereof, whether ar not he
receives compensation, except for servi ce in the NationaZ
Guaxd, the Reserves, or other branch of ihe armed forces."
In view of the languaqe indicating that an employee may not
hold any office under the ciiy government ,., , whether or not he
receives campensation, T am vf the opinion that the r.ules of the Civi1
Service Cammission ti�rould prohibit a po.Zice offzcer from holding az�� cit�
office whether electi ve or appointi ve and whether compensated or not
compensated.

MEMORANDUM
NASIM QUESHI, CITY Ml�NAGER
JAMES P. HILL, ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER/PUBLIC SAFETY DIRECTOR
JUNE 21, 1974
SUBJECT: CITY EMPLOYEES SERVING ON COUNCIL �PPOINTED BOARDS ANb CONI�IISSIONS
During the past few months there have been two occasions where City Council
has considered the appointment of City employees to the various commissions.
In both of these instances the City employees happened to be police officers.
In my opinion both of these employees would be very good choices for the
particular commissions for. tiahich they tivere being considered, however this is
not really the major consicleration. In my estimation, the City administration
should examine the total ramifications in a broad sense of City employee
political appointments beyond the narrow sco.pe of t}�e emplayee being qualified
for the position.
It has been stated that City employees should not be considered second-class
citizens and as taxpayers and home-owners they shoul.d have the same opportunities
as all other citizens. This comment is well taken and ha�� a lot of inerit. It
shoula be noted, however, that in some past federal eourt decisions regarding
police officers rights in internal investigations, the courts have stated that
police officers do have the same rights as all o�her citizens, however, by the
nature of accepting a position of public trust they may be implying a waiver
of certain rights, while they hold these positions. Court decisions are, of
course, always subject to new interpretations.
Of an even more significant nature is the objecti.ve of Boards and Commissions.
It has aliaays been my feeling that these bodies are created to obtain public
input and assist the Council. If this observation is correct, are we not
depriving non-city employee citizens from being appainted to a position of sig-
nificant input if we establish a policy of appoiniing City employees to these
positions? I think �ve would agree that a citizen, as a City employee, already
has an opportunity for significant contribution to various City operations, both
on a formal and informal basis. We s:iould also not lose sight of the fact ihat
many City employees are members of various aduisory bc�ards on a I:;�al, county,
regi.onal and state level by the very nature of their City employee pasition.
i9hile serving on these various advisory commissions the City employee citizens
already are directly having a sigziificant input into various areas that effect
the City operations and, in effect, are representing the City. The various
advisory boards to which I make reference, of caurse, are not Couneil appoint-
ments but are rather department head appointments.

CITY E�fPI,OYEES SERVING ON COUNCIL APPOINT�D COARDS AND CON�7ISSIONS
� -2-
�
Finally, iae must consider the potential effect on the internal operational
' structure of the City government should we establish a policy of City
employees being politically appointed to the various Boards and Commissions.
The potent�al danger is almost unlimited if we look at this situation in
the extreme. For example, a subordinate City employee could be appointed
� to a Commission or Board that has a considerable effect on the subordinate's
department head or the City government. The City employee could also be
placed on some commissions in which he could in effect be legislating rules
� and regulations that he felt would be in his best personal interest. In
other cases there could be City employees appointed to Boards and Commissions
outside his department area which could create considerable hardship betwaen
' the employee and that department, or that department's supervisor. This,
of course, would create an intolerable morale problem within the City govern-
ment and could in its extreme form considerably deteri_orate the morale and in
effect the efficiency of various departments which in *he long run reduces
, the public service to the conmiunity.
Based on the above considerations, it would be my opinion that the City
� administration should recommend against City Council adopting a policy whereby
City employees are appointed to the various Boards and Commissions at the
Council appointment level.

IN RE: Jubilee Committee
Dear Nasim:
June 25, 1974
The Jubilee Committee wants to report that we are reasonably pleased
, with the turnout and the various run of activities. Each of the
committee members, as you know, put in a Tot of time on a totally new .
event for our community. Leon Madsen did an exceptionalty good job
' of being helpful in coordinating so many things. Numerous other people
in the community taok care of various assignments much of which is
little known and is unrecognized.
,
�
�
�
As I previously discussed with you the teenage dance was cancelled.
You indicated after talking with Mr. Hi11 that perhaps the reasonable
thing would be to reschedule it later in'the summer. We had to pay
the band a settiement of $175 which was a saving of $75 of our con�ract
but promise that when it is rescheduled we would use the same booking
agency. If funds remain available to put it on my personal recommen-
dation is that it be held at the 4lickes parking lot. The management
there is agreeable to such a thing. Ed Dunn indicated that he thought
that his Board would approve the Chamber of Commerce handling the affair
and making the necessary arrangements. Since I wi11 be gone on vacation
for several weeks I thought I should send out this letter so that at
least you know my latest thinking on it. I am sending copies of �his
letter to Leon and to the members of the Steering Committee. I trust if
they have some other notions that they will contact you directly.

TO THE CITIZENS OF FRIDLEY:
5
The City Council of the City of Fridley would like to thank the
community for its support in promoting Fridley's Silver Anniversary.
Our 25th Anniversar�� celebration was a big success and it was due
primarily to the cooperation and participation of all the Citizens
of Fridley.
The Council would like to extend a special thanks to the Silver
Jubilee Steering Cammittee whose leadership initiated the support,
the volunteers who made each of the activities a tremendous success,
and last but not leGst, to all the Citizens whose participation
throughout our Silver Jubilee festivities made the work of all the
individuals involved worthwhile. ����
Fridley's history has not always been a record of comanunity coopera-
tion, although a great deal of community participation has always
been prevalent. The activities sponsored throughout the Silver
Jubilee celebration show that this community can be responsive to
a cause, and we hope future activities in the community can receive
as much overall caoperation from all segments of the community as
was shown in our Silver Anniversary celebration.
The City Council again would like to thank all the Citizens of the
community, and it is our hope and intention to make the next 25 years
as fruitfull as the first. �
Yours truly,

Dear Mr Liebl
I want you to know how much we at NSP appreciate your patience and
understanding after the extremely damaging windstorm Thursday, June 20.
Some 125,Q00 cusfiomers were withou# elsctriciiy immediately after the
windstorm. About 1,040 NSP employees joined in to restore service.
In the metro west area alone, 33 main feeders were locked oufi causing
120,000 customers to be without electric service. These type outages
were given the highest p�iority and when back in service, �estored
power to a good share of the interrupted customers. We also received
3,000 wire down calls with 5p0 of them involving primary conductors
with large numbers of customers being affected.
I would appreciate it if you would extend our thanks to any of your
associates who were invalved. Please accept my apolagies far the
inconvenience and extra probiems it may have caused you and members
of your city staff.
Sincerely

I would like to know what steps were taken by each of your depart-

1974.
Some of the ci_tizens were having problems getting hold of Northern
States Power to provide electrical service. Also, what procedures
do we have to find the areas and citizens needing service after
such an emergency, and how do we help citizens with the services to
be provided by other franchised utility companies in such a situation.
I would also solicit your suggestions in how we can irnprove t$e
services to the Citizens of Fridley in such an occurance in ti�e
future.
Thank you for your assistance.

MEMORANDUM
NASIM QURESHI, CITY MANAGER
JAMES P. HILL, ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER/PUBLIC SAFETY DIRECTOR
JUNE 24, 1974
CITY'S RESPONSE AFTER HIGH WINDS ON JUNE 20, 1974
Attached you will observe a memorandum from Lieutenant Rick to myself
describing the police action taken in regard to the storm �f June 20,
1974. It should be noted that the police action related to in Lieu-
tenant Rick's memo was a direct result of observations made by
police officers or calls received to the Fridley Police Departm�nt
on our nonemergeney line. I wauld suspect that numerous calls were
received through the Central Communications emergency lines regard-
ing our outages which would be relayed to Northern States Po�ver
Company.
In addition to Lieutenant Rick's camments regarding police response
in Fridley during this storm it was my personal observation by monitor-
ing the radios that all of our adjoining jurisdictions were having
considerable problems during this time, In addition to storm damage
we were unable to obtain outside lines to notify Northern States Power
Company due to the heavy demand on the phone lines during this period
of time. Fridley appeared to be one of the iirst jurisdict.ions to get
through to NSP to notify thezn of the first initi.al batch of emergency
and nonemergency problems. I noted that it was approximately one or
two hours after Fridley was able to notify NSP that I heard Spring
Lake Park by radio s-�ate that they �vere finally able to contact the
power company. This,of course,is a problem b�yond human cantxol
due to the situation at the time.
It was also my observation that Northern States Power Company, through
the mass media, specifically on radio and television were continually
tlashing notices to the general pubiic that if they had power outages
they should notify the Northern States Power Company directly and gav�
a telephone number. In addition, the Northern States Power Company
was stating that it would be one or twa days before full power was
restored. The C�.ty of Fridley had very litt�e qer.eral blackouts, as
I understand it, our central power substation was not deactivated. Our
power failures in some sections of the City was a result of the sub-

stations in the Columbia Heights and Spring Lake Park area being
deactivated which would have had a greater effect on those juris-
dictions' populace than ours. On Saturday, June 22, I was advised
by Chief Merle Glader of Columbia Heights that there were still
sections of Columbia Heights without power including some traffic
signals on some highways.
It is my persanal observation that during the actual emergency
situation that the Fridley Police, Fire, and Public Works Depart-
ment did all they possibly could and worked in a fast and expedient
manner to ensure the safety of our citizens on emergency conditions.
We, of course, have no way of determining the priority that NSP gives
to its nonemergency work once it is reported to th.em when there is
Metropolitan area-wide damage.
I can offer no suggestions at this time regarding any further
services that the City government of Fridley could have rendered
its citizens under this type of crisis situation. My only concern
during the entire situation occurred when a tree fire was reported
as a result of a live wire in Hilltop. The Fridley Fire Department
is contracted with Hilltop to provide fire service. The procedures
of the Fire Department during the daytime is to sound a general
alarm and, as you know, deactivates many of our Public Works �mploy-
ees who are volunteer firemen. Under normal circumstances this is
an excellent system for p�otection of our residents. However, in this
case, most of our Public Warks employees were operating under emergency
con�itions of. their own, checking downed wires and tree damag� within
the City which may have in fact endangered public lives. In addi�cion,
one of our filtration plants was without power and the water level
was rising. I have not discussed this with Chief Hughes, but possibly
a modification in the fire procedure in this type of crisis situation
would be in order, on the other hand perhaps the procedure that is
in existence is the best �hat we can afford at this time.
If there are any a�ditional questions you may have, or if I may be
of any further assistance, please advise.

' The following is a list of the ca11s received, the approximate time the calls
were received, and the response to these calls �ahich all basically deaZt �aith
emergency or semi emergencies that were caused by the thunderstorm activity
June 20, 1974, at approximately 1230 hours.

I, myself, was present in the squad car with Sergeants Allard and Sprungman,
Upon seeing the approach of the storm whi.le �ve were eating, Sergeanti Sprungman
and Allard and myself left the cafe and got in the squad car, at which time
Sergeant Spurngman checked with, and advised the other personnel who were on
patrol in the City to immediately start to check the various palyground areas
for children playing and if seen to send �hem on their way home. �it this time
the storm was moving into the City and it was very evident from the looks oi it
that it very possibly would be c�uite severe, including the fact that radio warn-
ings and teltype warnings at that time were present and we were aware of them.
Se�g��nt Sprungman was informed by 312 t}iat he, Officer Olsen, had already cleared
Commons Park and that t}ie Beach had been checked. Sergeant Sprungman then in-
dicated he would check the area of tVest Moore Lake and the schoolground complex
which we did on the way back to the station. The storm hit while were were en-
route to the station and ive continued and Sergeant Spurngman dropped me off at
the station so that I could assist the technician who evas thEn alone in the
station. I then sat on the desk arid answered the telephone and dispatc}iedvarious
individuals to various calls, etcetera, until approxi.mately 2 o'cloek.
During the time I sat on the desk I received 6 separate calls that ►vere in regard
to the storm activity. The first indication of a problem came with the alarm
fram 79th and Apex Lift Station tiahich �ae immediately transmitted ta the Public
Works Department, specifica.liy 711, Rusty Silseth, informir� him t}iat �he alarm
was on. I also sent a squad to the area to attempt to check as to the problem.
This problem was resolved by Public Works Superintendent, Ro1ph Volkman, cvho
reported this to NSP. A telephone call was received :Erom a party 4vho stated
there was a tree on a wire at Broad and Dover. I advised the squad 311 which �vas
checking the area to also check that.
The next instance was the report of a sign advertising Sar�dy's Restaurant being
' knocked down. This was on Highway 65 and Mississi.ppi Street and a Iive wire
was dangling. This li_ve dvire was subsequently disconnected by Bacon Electric
Company and neutralized so that it would czuse no inunediate problem.
'
�
'
'
The next instance was in the same nature only at A7aon Plaza where a sign
advertising Moon Plaza had blown over and dropped a live wire down an the sign
body itself. This was reported to us as a sparking, or burning, wire by ihe
recruzter at the Recruiting Station at Moon Plaza. Sergeant Sprungman went
do�,rn ta check this out and izpon his arrival he determined that the �rire had in
fact shorted out and blown the fuse and at that time had neutralized itsel£
'
'
�
by blowing the fuse and there was no further emergency connected with that particular
sign. This condition was also reported ta Northern States Power by rayself
and they �aere advised of the situation as far as the fuse being blo��n and advised
that it was not a high-priority item.
� at
The next instance that was reported to us cvas that 342 Rice Creek Terrace a branch
was laying across a power cable. This tivas checked by Public Works and found to be in
fact a branch laying across the General Television coaxial cable which was strung on
' the power poles. The branch, however, was not interfering in any way with the power
poles. The Public Works Department notified General TV of that particular situatian.

The next instance was a fire call advising there was a fixe in a tree in the vicinity
o£ 41st and N1ain. The Fridley Fire Department was dispatched to that locatian and
took action to handle it. It should be noted thatColumbia Heights was also having a
considerable amount of problems in that specific area with branches on trees, ecetera.
The ather instance was reported by Public tiVorks Department and consisted of a broken
gas main in the 1300 block on Mississippi Street. This occurrence was repoxted to the
Gas Company by Public Works Depaxtment and Chief Aldrich was also sent by us to check
the nature of the break and determine if it was an er�ergency situation or what action
had to be taken. He later reported, after inspecting the situation, that it was not a
hazard in the fashion it was broken and there wasn't anything the Fire Department could
do ta relievethe situation and the best solution would be to wait for the Gas Company
and this is how that particular call was handled.
At approximately 2 o'clock Officer Rehard came to work and relieved me at the desk and
in discussing the evening with Officer Rehard, he stated that during the time.he sat on
the desk, which consisted of a couple hours, he received two calls. One af the calls
was from a citizen who reported that at 91 - 612 Way there was a power line down which
was a hot wire. A sc{uad was sent to check that and this was later reported by Officer
Rehard to NSP. By this time the storm had passed through the City and we had our
patrol squads checking the general area of the City for any emergency type damage.
Sergeant Sprungman, in the south end, reported there was another ►aire down on Topper
Lane and the cul-de-sac, and Officer Rehard also repor�Ced this to Northern States Power.
We were not made aware of any other power outages or hot wires until after 5 o'clock
when the afternoon dispatcher, John Brazil, began to receive calls from residents in
residential areas in regard to the power being out in specific areas. He stated that
during the time he was on duty, which would be from 3:30 until midnight, he received
one call from Rice Creek TErrace and 71st iaay i.ndicating the power was out. He received
three calls from the area of Hickory Circle reporting that -the power iaas out, and he
received two calls from the area of 5ky�eood Lane reporting that the potiver was out. All
of the calls were relayed by him to Northern States Power emergency. He was advised by
the Power company that they we;re very bu�;r ancl that they would handle ih�m when they
ivere able to. After the first call to North�rn States Po�ver he advised the people that
called in after that of this circumstance - that they would be busy, but that he wauld
report it.
We are unable to determine from any of the officers cvhether or not they sac� any
Northern States Pc�aer crews working in our City during that afternoon or evening.
Officer Groinus, who ivas the supervisor on the night shift starting at 11 until 7
in the morning, did see a iJSP truck parked at the Embers and Iater determined that the
crew in the �ruc}: were having coffee or a meal or something o� that nature at the Embers.
This probably was in the neighboxhood of 2 to 2:30 in the morning.
In conclusion, at approximately suppe.r time 4 to 6 o'clock, our police
officers were made aware that the Public Works Department had cleared the streets
and there were no Ulockages of any street and that the power lines that were down
had been reported so tliat the immediate emergency of the situation had passed by.
The calls that were received after that were all in the nature of power outages and not
of an emergency type.

SUBJECT: City's Response After High Winds on June 2Q, 1974
The Sewer Department, on the day of the sto�m, was on
the streets checking catch basins for plug-ups and debris. The Street
Department went into action assisting the Sewer Degartment. The
Street Department was also dispatched by the Street Department Fore-
man into our seven maintenance districts to check for down-wires in
the streets, fallen trees in the streets and any other hazards that
might have occurred in the storm. By 4:30 P.M. on June 20th, all
hazards had been removed fram the streets, or barricades had been
set up around fallen trees until the next day.
The Sewer Department had power failure at two locations --
the 78th and Apex Lift Station and the Riverwood School Lift Station.
The Apex Lift Station went out at 1:20 P.M. Northexn States Power
Company had the power bactc on by 3:30 P.M. The Riverwood Lift Station
power was off at 9:00 P.M. NSP was called, and by Il:OQ P.M. the
power was restored. Our Foreman made other arrangements to pump this
station, in case the power was not restored, in arder to prevent back-
ups in homes.
We feel that NSP gave us the best service that could be
expected, considering the severity of the storm and the pawer outages
throughout the whole metropolitan area. Also, the Public Wozks Depart-
ment did everything they possibly could to make sure that the services
to the Community were restored as soon as passi�le. As far as power
outages were concerned, the only way that this information could he
passed on to NSP in a speedy manner, was by the citizens ealling and
informing us at City Hall of their problems.

Mr. Ro}� Taylor, ger_eral contractor and brother of the applicant, was present ta
present the request, .
MOTION by Crowder, seconded by Gabel, to waive reading tiie public hearinq n�ti.:e.
Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, the motion carried.
Mr. Taylor explained the buildings to either side of the proposed dwelling have
less than the required 35 foot sstback. He said they would like ta line this
house up with the existing garage that is set back 22.7 feet from the Fairmont
Street property'line. He said this location will be more convenient in getting
from the'house to the garage. He said they would also like to line up with the
dwelling that is set back 19.9 feet from the property Iine along Broad Street.
Chairman Drigans asked why they are tilting the house. Mr. Taylor answered for
appearance-wise mainly. He added this will prevent cutting down several trees
and will give more privacy to the back yard.
10
Chairman Drigans asked why the house can't face Fairmont Street. Mr. Taylor said
' it could, but this positioning will make a inuch r�icer corner. He said this location
will also prevent the possibility of selling off part of these lots for another
building site.

Mrs. Wahlberg asked if there are any ottier houses in this area that are tilted
on the lot. Mr. Taylor said h� did not know of any.
Mr. Crowder asked if the garage had an existir.g hard surface driveway. Mr.
Taylor said the qarage is a block garage and has just a gravel driveway. Mr.
Crowder asked if there was a house on this 1ot at one time. Mr. TayZor sai.d the
garage was built some years back and was part of the adjacen� property to the
south. He said when thcy sold thc land, th� garage went with it. A1r. Crowder
aaked if there were plans to enlarge the garage ai,d Mr. Taylor answered it would
be used just.as it is now. . �
Mr. Crowder asked how the house would be located if the vaxiance was denied.
Mz'. Tayl.or said he re,ally diiin`t know. �
Mx. Mattson stated another. thing is that Br.oad Street t..�kes a jog at.this
location, so if the tiouse would be tnrned to tiie north prol�erly (parallel to
Fairmani: St. ) it WOL11C1 loo}; down Broad Street.

The Minutes of the Boar.d of Appeals Subcommittee Meeting of June 11, 1974
Chairman Drigans asked what is on the lots to the east; Lots 30, 31, 32 and 33.
Mr. Taylor said these lots are part of a hill that is about 15 feet above the
road level. He said he believed the lots are buildabZe but there would, in his
opinion, be problems building a house on them.
Mr. Mattson mentioned the variation in the setbacks would no.t be as apparent here
as where the land is f1at.
Chairman Driyans said another fact to consider is traffic visibility. He said on
a corner lot this is a big consider.ation. �
�0 A
Mr. Crowder said he didn't think he would like to see the house not tilted and have�
a 22.7 foot setback. He said the visibility is better as the house is proposed than
if it met Code.
Chair•man Drigans said the hardship seems to be keeping the house in line with the .
garage and the adjacent dwelling and saving the existing trees. •
MOTION by Wahlberg, seconded by Gabel, to close the public hearing. Upon a voice
vote, there being no nays, the motion carried. .
Chairman Drigans informed�the Board that this item was before the Council on
June 10, 1974 and the Council will concur with whatever the Board decides.
Mrs. Wahlberg said she doesn't find any strong objections to the variance other
than the fact that the request for the 22.7 foot setback should be predicated on
the fact�that the house be tilted as proposed on the survey dated May 30, 1974.
She said she did ��ot want the house to be chancJrEd to be parallel to Fairmont
Street and she felt �hat if it was changed, that it would need another variance
and come back for review. �
MOTION by Wahlberg, seconded by Gabel, to approve the variance request v�ith fih+�,
sta.pulation that the house be located as proposed on the survey dated May.30, 19!�►4
and if the location is cha.nged to be parallel to Fairmont, that the request e�cns�.

5920 KIF.KWOOD LT�N�, MINNLIIPOLIS, MINN�SOT11 55442.)
No one was present to present the request. .
Chairman Dr9.gans stated this request was befare the Council on June 10, 1974 and
the Council tentatively approved three of the variances but did have strong
reservations about the variance to reduce the side yard setback abutting a side
street of a corner lot from 35 fect L-a 25 feet. He' said the ali:erriative for this
variance would be to reduce the building size by 10 feet to meet the setback.
The Minutes of the Board of Appeals 5ubcommittee Meeting of June 11, 1974
� • A discussion on the variances brought out that the rear yard variance and the
zero side yard would al�.ow this building to line up with the building to the
north wh5.ch also had tYiese variances granted on it. The parking variunce has
il ,' also bePn grarited on the building to the north and on other buildings in the
� area.
'
'
�
r�
'
' .
II �
Mr. Crocader stated the reason for the zero side yard was to have more green
area on the ends of the buildings and to reduce the side yard variance from
35 feet to 25 feet would defeat the reasoning for zero side yards.
Mrs. Wahlber.g stated she felt the Board should concur with the Council and
deny the side yard variance.
MOTION by Crowder, seconded by Wahl.berg, to close the public hearing. Upon a
voice vote, there being no nays, the motion carried.
Page 3
MOTION by Crowder, seconded by Plemel, to appz'ove the variances to reduce the
reax yard setba;ck °from 25 feet to 24.5 feet, and to reduce the.:�3.de;Y�,
setback from 15 feet to zero feet on the n.orth side,of the buildzng and to
reduce �he setback between�of'i�'street parking and'the building from.5 €eet
to zero feet with bumpers installed on the building, and to ��+�°�� v,��'.� :.�e,�
�o r�du_c�k�e side yard setback variance a�utting a side street of d�a'a N,
�,ot from 35 feet to 25 feet for the foZlowing reasons;�� The u�� ttzng ca '
west; across Elm Street, meets the 35 foot setbac}�. 2. The proper�g t�r the�
east, across the alley, if developed as industrial, will probably h�v� i�ro
meet tl�e 35 foo� setback. Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, the motion
carried.

Mr. Harris said that he noted the building that M�. Pascke
wanted to build woul.d be on two lots. Mr. Boardman said he wanted
to build a 55 ft. x 75 ft._k��iilding which required many variances.
He said the variance request to reduce che sicie yard setback abutting
a side street of a corner lot from 35 feet to 25 feet had been denied

MOTION by Drigans, seconded by Harris, that the Planning
Commission waive the reading of the PubZic Heaxing notice on the
request for a SpeciaZ Use Permit, 5P #�74-11, bz� Curtis Barsness.
Upon a voice vote, aZ1 voting aye, the motion carx�ied unanimousZy.

Mr. Barsness said he wanted this 24 ft. x 26 ft. second garage
because he has a 1967 Corvette and a 1940 Buick that were getting
� to be collector's items and he wanted them under cover.
' Mr. Harris asked the petitoner what he
for. Mr. Barsness said he can get one car
used the rest of the garage for his hobby.

Mr. Fitzpatrick asked if he was going to have two driveways an
his property. Mr. Barsness said he thought he would be combining the
driveways to go out to Central Avenue. He said he had no access to
66th Avenue because of a 2 foot outlot. He said there was a 33 foot
easement for a road South of his property, and there was a possibility
. that Bacon Electric, who own this praperty, might put this road in.
He said he would prefer to have access to this road.
Mr. Drigans asked the logic behind the placement of this garage.
Mr. Barsness said he had a garden behind the garage and he has to stay
behind his hause which has a 47 foot front setback. He said if he
ever sold part of his lot, all his building would be on the one lot.
Mr. Drigans said the problem with the placement of this garage is that
the driveway will be 85 feet long, which will make the required hard
surface driveway very expensive. Mr. Barsness said there would be
26 feet more because of the boulevard. He said he knew this would be
costly. �
Mr. Drigans asked what type of construction this garage would be
and what utiliti.es would be in it. Mr. Barsness said the garage woul.d
be wood frame and he didn't intend to have any utilities, not even
electricity, because it was too far from the house. He said he thought
he would install some kind of alarm system.

Mr. Boardman said the biggest concern of the City, although

Upon a voice vote, there beir_g no nays, the motion carried.
Mr. Perry Dommas a:�d Nir. Ke�_th Johnson of S�rite-Anderson and their contractor,
Mr. Bob Coyle, were present to present the request,
Chairwoman tlahlberg asked them to explain the par};ing variance requested. Nir.
Do:nmas stated they want to blacktop right up to the bui.lding on the west side
of the proposed addition but there will be no parking stalls tYiere because of
the loading docks, but the variance is still needed for the blacktop.. He said
tha space will be available if they need it for parking. Chairwoman Wahlberg
asked if the number of parkin�� stall.s rneet the Co�e. Mr. Boardman stated they
have 167 stalls and the Code requires 17�. He said if additional s�alls are
needed for parking, the City can require them to add more as the room is available.
� Mr. Boardman added the parking situation in this instance is different as they have
3 shifts, and the shifts are staggered enough,to prevent a parking problem.
Mr. Plemsl asked what the maximum number of empl.oyees was an any shi�t. Mr,
Dommas answered that 70 people was the maximum. H� added that if they have to,
they could install parking in tiie ease.ment along the south lot line.
Chaircaoman Wahlberg asked why they needed a variance on the addition and the
existing building.

Mr. Boardman explained th�y built an addition onto their building in 1972 tha�L the
' Council approved caith the stipulation-they �hey eithc�r request a variance or acquire
12 more feet of land. Strite-Rnderson has not acquired the additional land so they
are now asking for the variance on �ie existing building.

Mr. Dommas added they would like the proposed addition to be flush with the existing
building so they are asking for a variance on the addition also. .
Chaircaor�ari WahZberg asked cahat type of tratfic protection will br. prova.ded along

MOTION by Gabel, seconded by Plemel, to waive reading.the public hearing natice.
Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, the mo�ion carried.
' Mr. Jack Lawrence, Signcrafters, Inc., was present ta present the request.
A plot plan of the location was shown to the Board. Mr. Lawrence explained they
wish to put a pylori on Osborne Road that will be the identification sign for
' Frank's Nursery. A sketch of the sign was shown to the Board. Mr. Lawrence added
they also want to install a wall sign for Frank's Nursery that wi.11 be within the
size requirement of the Code.
�

,
'
'
Chairwoman-Wahlberg stated a separate variance will }ae required for the wall sign
as the Council has previously stipulated th4t all sigrls that had been on this
building were to be removed. She udded when Mr. Schroer came in on his variance
request for his wall sign, it was stipulated that both names be removed from the
existing pylon, rs. Lawrence said his company pu* up Afr. Schr.oer's siqn and he
understood that the names were to be removed from the pylon. He said he also
thought the wagon would come down..
The Board and Mr. Lawrence discussed the signs that are existing and Chairwoman
Wahlberg read the Council Minutes of May 20, 1974 concerning the variance request
for Mr. Schroer.
Mr. Lawr.ence stated that Frank's Nursery needs the exposure this sign would bring.
He added he had just received the sketch of the sign from Detroit and it shows
the.sign 6 feet x 12 feet so the variance can be reduced to 72 square feet instead
of the requested 80 square feet. .
Chairwoman Wahlberg asked what signs Frank's Nursery now had. Mr. Lawrence said
they have a temporary sign over their entrunce door to show people which door to
go in and tt�en �hey have their name on the pylon. � .
bir. Lawrence said the proposed sign will l�ave plastic panels, be interior
, illucninated, double faced, and be approximately 20 feet back from the property line.
alonq Osborne Road. He said the top part of the sign will have a white background
with red lettering spelling "Frank's", and the bottom portion of the sign will hav�:

a green background with yellow lettering spelling "Ilursery & Trims" with the
daisy trademark. Mr. Lawrence added he felt they could meet the Code of 25 feet
on the height so they would not need that variance.
Mr. Plemel asked if Mr. Lawrence felt this sign could be seen from Univ�rsity
' Avenue and M.r. Lawrence felt it would be able to be seen. Mr. Plemel stated he
felt the Board has been trying to get away from individual identification signs
' at this location. Mr. Lawrence said there is a definite break between businesses
and he felt they should each have their own signs. He said the only thing they
have in common is the.parking area.
' Chairwoman Wahlberg said what bothers her is that the signs are becoming what was
there before. She said she could see Mr. Schroer coming back next and asking for
another pylon for Bob's Produce identification.
'

ILJ
�
�
There was a discussion on the number. and types of.signs allowed by the Code at
this location. Mr. Mattson stated, according to the Code, this location is not
classified as a shopping center, as yet, so they are allowed one pylon per each
street frontage, plus wall signs that do riot exceed 15 percent of the wall area.
He stated if another building is built to make this location into a shopping center,
they would be allowed 1 pylon for each street frontage plus an area identification
sign plus the wall signs.
Mr. Plemel stated he felt it would be nice to have the applicants stay with what
they propose and live with the stipulations ra�her than having them come back
every year asking for more variances.
Mr. Lawrence said Frank's Nursery does need the sign and they are only asking for
a small variance on the size.
Chairwoman Wahlberg said she dicl agree that theg need the sign even thouqh it goes
against her better judgement.
Mr. Lawrence added as the landscaping shrubs and trees grow larger, they will
definitely need a sign that can be seen.
Chairwoman Wahlberg asked ho�o late the sign will be lit. Mr. Lawrence stated it
will prok�ably be turned off at 10:00 to 1.0:30 P.M. He said they are trying to
'"-- educate people to the fact that signs don't have to be lit during the day but only
for about 2 hours at night.
' MOTION by Plemel, secorzded by Gabel, to close the public hearing. Upon a voice
vote, there being no nays, the motion carried.
'
'
'
�
Mrs. Gabel stated s2ie can see where they have a problem in beinq seen because
of tYie service station in front of them and.they do need a sign if their name
is to be taken off the existing pylon.
Chairwoman �nlahlberg said two hardships that were brought out were;'one is that
they need their own identification to show tney are in the building and secondly
they need exposure for the traffic goinq east on Osborne Road. She said the sign
is tio be reduced to 72 square feet and the height will be kept at 25 feet. She
said since the time when Council stipulated no pylon was to be erected or. Osborne,
there has been changes in the building layout and in the number of signs that
were existing.

at this time. Mr. Lawrence stated he understood that and he would bring this
item up at the Council meeting to try and save some time.

FR�C}NT Y�RD SETE;ACK FROM 35 Fr.E:T TO 19 PEET TO F�LLOW THE CONSTRUCTION OF A U.�7ELLIn1G

N.E. , F�:IDL�Y, M1N^7ESOTA. (FLQU�S'I' BY MR� G. CRAIG WILLEY, 3816 POLK STREET DJ :;. ,
MINNEAPOLIS. MINNESOTA.) .
Mr. Willey was present to present his request. A survey showing the proposed
house location, ar,d a picture of the lot were shown to the Board.
Mr, Willey showed the Board a topography drawing of the lot that he had made. He
said he had make 92 elevation shots sa that he would know where to best position
the dwelling. He addecl the neighbor's house to the nor�h is set bacJc 19 feet,
the same distance as he is asking for, and for the same reason. He said the reason
he �aould like i:o set the house closer to the street is that from the edge of the
cul-de-sac running westerly through his property, there is a grade change of 20 feet.
He said the steepest point e�:ists within tYie first 30 feet from the street so if he
were to maintain the 35 foot setback from the property line, and keep the top o£ ihe
foundation above the grade of the street, he would have to use excessive courses of
block and additional fill. He said he has to have excessive courses of block as
proposed, and even to stay back 25 feet, as suggested by Mr. Clark, would mean
2 to 3 feet of ad3itional block and a lot of fill. He said there is a 6 foot
boulevard for a sidewalk to be put in but he said he is not for a sidewalk and he
didn't feel anyone else in the neignborhood wan�ed one-put in either. He said he
is as}cing for the variance on the basis that a sidewalk would not be needed.
Mrs. Gabel asked if he intended to live in the hous.e. Mr. Willey said that he did.
Mrs. Gabel asked what type of a house was proposed, rir. Willey said it �oould be
rambler appearing from the front with a terraced down yard to expose one lower level
window. He said the back will be a walk-out and most of the living area will be
on this level. He said the garage will have a spancrete floor with a recreation
room beneath it. He added it will be valued around $45,000.00.
Mrs. Agnes Johnson and son, 5947 Central Avenue, and Mrs. Lyle fIalland, 120?
Gardena Avenue came forward to voice their opinions of the request.
Mr. Johnson stated because of the grade of th� 1%�n3, they have had trouble with
flooding basements for the past 5 years. He said they are just now getting this
problem under control and feel that building this house will worsen their run off
problem. He felt that a drainfield or something like that should be installed.
Mrs. Gabel asked what is involved in resolving a run off problem. Mr. Mattson said
it is a matter of landscaping and s�ddiny but this would have to be worked out with
the Engineering Department.
Mrs. Halland stated the storm sewer on Woody Lane doesn't take care of aIl the
storm water and she felt itsibuld be checked.
Mr. Willey said he realizes the problem exists but it would still exist whether

Chairwomari Wahlberg stated the problem of the storm sewer will have to be handled
by the Engineering Department and the City Council. She said the Board is only
authorized to act on �he variance request. 5he asked if there was any objection
to the variance itself. Mrs. Hal�and said her husband might have an objectian but
he had to work and could not be present. Chairwoman Wahlberg informed Mrs. Haliand
that her husband could come before the Council if he wanted to state any objections
to the variance.
t�ir. Willey added he has.purposely left 8 feet between his garage and the lot line
so that he can put in a ditch drainage area for the roof run off.
MOTION by Plemel, seconded by Gabel, to close the pulalic hearing. Upon a voice
' vote, there being no nays, the motion carried. �
'
�
'
Mr. Plemel stated he could see no need for a sidewalk to ever be installed and
considering that the house to the north is already set back 19 feet, and because
this is on a cul-de-sac where the houses are not in line, he had no objection.
Mrs. Gabel said she agreed�with Mr. Plemel.

of the variance to reduce the front yard setback from 35 feet ta�1�$`f�e� Upon a

MOTION by Plemel, seconded by Gabel, to recommend that the Council ta�ke �oti�e oi";�::r

this house might add to the problem, and to see if something can be worked out to
alleviate the problem. Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, the motion carried.

Subject: Request for Variance
Gentlemen:
We have in our plant expansion requirements met with a deterrent that
can only be accomplished by a variance from the City Council.
We have found that we cannot build our required addition without infringing
on your required twenty-five (25) foot easement at the rear of the building.
We are therefore asking for your concurrence of variance.
If there is any further information required or desired, please contact �
the undersigned.
Very Sincerely,
STRITE-ANDERSON MANUFACTURING COMPANY

Mr. Perry Domaas, I�ir. Keith Johnson and h4r. Bob Coyle were present for
the request for Strite-Anderson.
l�ir. Domaas explained that the addition that they are asking for is
' 100 feet x 190 feet extending south from the existing builda.ng along the rear
of the lot. The building will be a metal building to ma�ch the existing
structure. •

Mx. Boardman said that two variances have been recommended by the Board
of Appeals. They are a rear yard variance from 25 f�et to 13 feet and a
variance for parking setback from 5 feet to 0 feet on the west side of the
building, this wi11 allow parking right up to the side af the building.
Mr. Bomaas said that the reason that they needed the variance to bl.ack-
top up the building was to allow £or easier maneuvering forthe present loeding
docks .
bir. Lindblad asked if they will be doing any curbing ox additional land-
scaping. Y,eith Johnson said that they cvill be curbin� all a.reas except along
the south side of the parking lot for reasons of possible park�ng, lot expansion.
{Vith this plan they will be providing 167 stalls and the City requirement is
for 171 stalls and this area to the sout�i could ve used for additional parlcing
if it is ever needed. They will also b e bringing the frant green area up to
the required 20 feet planting strip (they presently have I3 feet).
I�9r. Tonco asked if they planned to s creen the propane tanks that was
stipulated on the last addition they built. P�1r. Domaas said that th.is will
be done with this construciton.
hir. Boardman said that all other outside storage will h ave to be screened.
He said he had noticed quite a bit of ��allet and barrel stacking outsicle about
a week ago. t�tr. Domaas said the barrels are gone now, but the pallets are a
continuing storage problem. They have a high turnover on the pallets and are
constantly going in and out.

I�Ir. Tonco asked if this could be stored in a screened area outside
(arouncl the tank area). D1r. Domaas said that they would likc to do this but
are not sure about this year's budget. They would like to store all of this
material inside the proposed building until they can budget for the necessary
outside screening.
Ntrs. Treuenfels felt that this �vould be alright, how.ever, the screening
on the tanks themselves must be done right away. Mr. Domaas agreed to this.
MOTION by Tonco, seconded by Treuenfels, to recommend to Council ��roval �,,�
of the addition with the following stipulations:
1. That all curbing be completed except for temporary curbing along
the south side of the parking lot to allow for possible expansion of.
the parking lot if it is ever needed. This should be reviewed in 5 years.
2. Planting strip along Viron Road be widened to the required 20 feet.
3. That all storage of materials will be stored o�i the inside until
appropriate outside screening areas are provided.
4. The present tanks will be screened as previously stipulated on the
building perm�t for their last addition.
5. The drainage system as presented be approved by the Engineering
department.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, all voting aye, the motion carried unanimously.

Ron Nelson was present on b�half of Target Stores, Inc., to discuss the possibility
of leas�n� or selling the proper-L-y adjacent to the Park property cam�nonly referred
to as Cheri Lane. Targ�t c�onated the Cheri Lan� property �anen the store was bu.i.lt,
and it was the fe-�ling o� Nir. Nelson that if additional prop°..xty was purchased or
leased, it coulc� possil�ly enco�irage the developmer_t of_ the Park property.
The proposed additional land could possiUly house a ball diamond or other such
recreational facilities, �nd perhaps give the neighborhood youngsters a place to
go and someil�ing to do wi�t�ti spare time. Mr. N�lson said that he and Mr. Brown had
d�iscussed the purchase possibilities and agre� that it was�pretty much out of the
questio�i. The leasing id�a would b� znore satisf�ctory for both parties involved.
A lease could be set up on a 3 to 5 year basis an3 a� a nominal fee, ancl after that
length of time, �rhaps on an annual renewal.
Nir. Blair S�c."ttEC� tYlc�t �Y11S Wd5 anothex area where we had �a small pocket with no
recreational facilities. Mr. Brocan nointed out that the recent purchas� at Hamilton's
A�3ition to Mechanicsville was nearby, but on i:h� west side of 7th Street. We also
have 0ak Hill Park in this area, but it is not large enough to house a ball diamond.
It's strict].y a t�t park.
A�r. Wagar aske�a if money had b�.n discussed and Mr. Brown statcd that it had not.
A1r. rdelson �.��s here to g�t the feelings of th� Co�-��nission and to discuss the
existin� tucilities far th� neighborh�d. Mr. Brown went on to exp).ain that this
wi11 benefit Target, a1so. At the present time, therc is a fc:nce wi7ich runs along
the nroperty and the property in ques�Lion has b��ne a n�ighborr�od dimlp. Mr. Broun
sa.id that th� City tries to keep it cl<�aned up, but it really isn't large enough to
develop.
Mr. Wagar aslcc�d if there was a need for a bal]_ diamond here. NL-�. Browr� said that it
rcall_y hac�n't been disc�.lssed, but was merely a suggestion on the part of Mr. Nelson.
I�Ir. Nelson szi3 that thc ball park idea was just an idea to give the neighborhood
kids sanething to do as opposed to nothing to do. He•referred to the fact that they
have had san�e vandali�m �roblc�ns in this area. He said that it do�sn't have to be
an elaborzte field. Pcrh��p� a ho�ne plate arx3 a couple ot lrare places which the kids

Mr. & Nirs. Lynn Hansen were present to request the uzstallation of a fence along
' their prop�rty line which is adjacent to Jay Park. The Hansens a�rim an apartrnent
building and receive quite .a flow of traffic frc� the Park. Mr. Hansen stated that
a four-foot fence would suffice. Mr. Hansen s�aid that if he had t�o install his o�m
' fence, he would insta.11 a four-foot fence. Mr. Hansen stated that the contour of the
land is such that the Park is lower and he felt that four feet �aould be adequate.
Mr. Brown agreed. Mr. Hansen stated that he and his wife live in the buildir.g.
�
,
�
�
'
'
Mr. Peterson questioncd the four-foot heighth. He said that he has watched kids
go over th�n without any difficulty, and perhaps a higher fence would be requested
at a later date.
Mr. Hansen f�lt that the majority of the traffic is frcgn the very young children
and the older ones just pass ti-�rough.
Mr. Peterson statc� that the City has, in the past, worked with the neighboring
pzoperty ocaners, in tY:e installation of such fences, and he guessed that his only
question cvas wheth� or not the four-foot fence would be adequate. Mr. Hansen
said that he hasn't had any experience along these lines, so h� really doesn't
know.
Mr. Hansen state3 that his neighbor, who also lives adjacent to the Park, has had
saYie problan.s with ball playing and will probably be building a higher, privacy
fence. Mr. Hansen stated that he has not had this type of probl�n since it's
primarily the tots wlZO are playing near his hcane. Mr. Hansen said that it is his
impression that Iv.s neighbor plans to install his own fence, at his awn expense.
� Mr. Broc�m asked A4r. Iiansen if he wanted the fence installed on his awn property or
on the City prope�-ty? Mr. Hanser� stated that it did not matter to him. He stated
that there are same trees on tlie line, and this could be a detnrmining factor. He
� also said that ttie Parl. property was quite a bit lawer tl�ian his own, so maybe it.

2nd�S�Jc.ee,t N. �.
Robert Bishop was present to discuss the pro�alc�ns he is hava.rig with hi.s property
and the adjoining Altuia Park. rir. Bishop's home is locat�l directly South of the
Fark, and he is constantly botl,�er_ed with Park traffic, vandalism, an3 debris.
Mr. Bisliop e.��plained that he has a white picket fence in his back yard, along the
Paxk side of his pro��rty. Each night, h� has to go out in his yard and repair
the broken fence. In the ��inter�ime, all the snota blo�,�s across the park and onto
his driveG,�ay. The d�x�s are runnir.g loc�se, and the traff_ic fram thz children using
the Park is ruining his shrubs. r7r. Lishop statcd that he has no so.lutions to his
problem, but he is tired of pic;cing up trash and all of the other probl�ns. One
of his suggestions was to put more trash banels in the park and insta.11 a fence
all the way to the c�urb. Pdr. Bishop said that he is also having probl�ns with the
kids who play ball b�cause they are damaging his siding on his home.
Mr. Blair asked about installing a fence all the way to the curb? Nir. Braun said
that this was against the City Ordinance. One of the reasons would be for snow
plcr�aing.
Mr. Bishop asked how th� kids could be stop�cd frcan cutting through the shrubs?
' He also stated that he is ready to take do„� his picket fence because it's be�n
damaged so,m,.any tim�s. Mr. Bishop said that they ccxn� up his driveway, tA avoid
�jtunping the curb which runs along the front of the ParY.
,
'
�
'
,

'
'
Mr. Blair as}ced Mr. �ro�an for his opinion on a solution. He responded that the
installation of the chain-link ience would be advisabl�, but that it cannot go
all the way to the cu�-b. He felt that the fence should be installc--d fram the
street right-of-way to the front of his hc�ne, and fro:n the back of his h�ne ta
the freecaay fence at the back of his lot. He felt that it was a bad idea to fence
tlie �area right along the side of Mr. Bishop's ho,-�e.
Mr. Bro�,m recananended that the site be reviewed and discussed again at the June :
meeting.

Mr. Bishop went on to ea�lain that he feels the apparatus at the Park is geared.for
older children. Th� majority o� the children who play at Altura P�rk are tots, and
he was inquiring aLout the installation of saddl�ates or tot-sized swings. He also
askcd for additional trash receptacles. • ,
Mr. Brown responded tYk�t he would see that anothex trash barrel is placed in the Park.
Mr. Bishop suc�gested that a barrel be placcd by the basketball court.
Mr. Bro�an and M�:. Bishop will meet arbd discuss the probl�ns ar�d possible solutians,
and report back to the Ccnnnission at the ne�:t meeting.

f I NY TOTS AGE RE(1U I REMENT �
Rolan Anderson was present to ask how the City had arrived the age cut aff for the
' Si�ur�er Recreation proqrams. It is presently the policy to allow a child to
participate in the progr�;m, if he or she beccgnes of age befoie the last day of the
prograrn. Mr. Anderson explained that this is terribly unfair to those youngsters
who have birthdays between the last day of the prograTn, and the first of September
' which makes them eligible for Kind�rgarten. Mr. Andez'son gave two examples of his
neighborhood children who were unable to participate in tlze Tiny Tots Prcgram
because their birthdays fell within tl�at one-month period. These children were
' denied participation i.n the program l�ecause of this factor, and their playmates
wexe allowed ta register.
' Mr. Blair asked the Dcp.�rtment for more backround on setting of the cut off dates.
It �•�as explain�3-�hat l�fore the present policy was set, the children were required
to be of'age l.��tore they registered for the program. This eliminated even more
' children who were deni.ed participation in the program but who would be��ligible to
atten3 ICindFxg2sten in Sept:��nber. Witti this in mind, the cut-off date was changed
to the last d�y of the program.
'
'
'
'
,
Mr. Wagar poi_nted out that a child v,�ho becc�nes 4 on September lst, will only be
able to.par�icipate in Tiny Tots for one year, also. Mr. Anderson said that the
September lst cut-off did enable tY�iose elig�ble for Kindergarten, to participate
with his friends.
Mr. Peterson felt that the City should use the same cut-off date as that used by
'the school districts. �
Mr. Harris asked for an approximate rnunber of ch�.ldren who are affected by this
problem. He was told thai: it c,ras a very small num}�r.
Mr. Brown said that perhaps we hadn't looked far enaugh�into this situation,
especiall_y since Tiny Tots is such a new program. It was Mrs. N�ine Boone's
recce�m�endation, as Playqro,:nd Director, that p�xhaps the 4 year olds are too young
for the program. •

on the pro�rty in Special 1lssessn�nts and t�es. Nfr. Blair said that he didn't feel
we were interested in fihe property at this tutie. Nir. Wagar agreed that there were
areas with higher prioritics. � • ,
Mr. Darris said that he felt we shouldn't flatly refuse the offer, but rather, we

�The City received a letter frcan the Lakeside Park Comnission in reference to the
spraying of Spring Lake, next to John Erickson Park. They explained that they
' treat the lak� each Spring and were inquiring aboitt the possibility�of sharing the
expense with the City of Fridley, and treating our�area as w�ll. Our share of the
exprnses would be about $200.00.
' It was the feeling of the Co�nission, that since we already hire a company to treat

In addition, Mr. Caldwell had submitted a report on the protection systems.
Mrs. Hughes questioned whether this would be done by Cable in Fridley?
Fr. Ed said it was his understanding that it would not be done at the
present time by Cable. This was the best temporary solution available
until a Cab1e system is possible.
SEMINAR
Fr. Ed announced that on Monday, May 20 there would be an elaborate seminar
on "The uses of Cable Television by Religion," He felt this was a very
ecumenical and cooperative effort on the part of the 9merican Catholic
Church and the State Cable Commission. Fr. Ed said the first three evenings
the seminar will be held at St. Williams Parish and the last evening will
be held at the studio. Fr. Ed feZt this might be a model for other sectors
of the Community .
Fr. Ed stated �ie would not be able to attend the four days on the seminar,
oae of the other priests from his parish would be attending as a staff inember�,
He felt it would be of interest to any member of the Commission to attend
this seminar.
GENERAL DISCUSSION
Fr. Ed suggested getting expertees to explain to the public the technical
parts of Cable TV. People look to Cable TV as a community service.
Barbara Hughes asked what the involvement of the Cable Commission has been,
if any at all? Fr. Ed explained it was just through himself. He had
been introduced as a member of the CATV Commission and then gave a small
report on the public use of the medium.

Fr. Ed asked Clyde Moravetz information concerning the Metropolitan Council.
' CZ3rde Moravetz said the status had not changed since the last meeting,
except that they are trying to formulize a final draft. Fr. Ed asked what
was the philosophy on..that? Clyde said they wanted to leave it up to the
Municipalities to issue their own franchises. They encourage to have joint
' agreements. This draft is subject to change by the Metropolitan Council
be£ore it gets to the State Commission. He said there is nothing concrete
on this.

Barbara Hughes asked what were the influences that changed it? Mr. Moravetz
said a few of the meetings which he had not attended, a few of the other
Municipalities became involved with something and they were opposed to a
type.of districting because they ran into problems in density. .Mr. Moravetz
said he had presented that report to them.
Barbara Hughes said there would be a hearing on June 1 from 20:30-Z:00
and 1:30-4:30. Thexe are 20 days following in which written com�ents can
be made. She asked if anyone from the State Commission was looking at this.
Clyde Moravetz said he would mention it to the State Commission, some
might be interested in attending.
Mr. Haines asked if anyone had been chosen to be program director?
Fr. Ed said no:one had been hired yet, they would probably hire a program
director by June when definite plans are made. Fr. Ed felt it was difficult
to bire a program director, since many qualified directors.are already hired.
Members discussed KSTP and bringing in an independent station, such as
Winnipeg.
Mrs. Hughes asked if they had seen the article in the Minneapolis Tribune
which Bob McDonald said that information was sent to all the Cab1e Commissions
and he had received poor reply's from some, and said they had the option of
possibly taking some legal action.
Mrs. Hughes thought they should investigate that, and inquire through the
Company to the State Cable Commission to see how well they responded to
that. Clyde Moravetz said he would check into that.

CABLE TELEVISION COMMISSION, FRIDLEY, �1INNESOTA
REPORT - VISIT TO FCC
On Thursday, April 18, 1974, Councilmen Bill Nee and Tim
Breider of the Fridley, Minnesota - City Council, Bob Hinckley
of General Television, and the writer met with Mr. David Kinley,
Chief, Cable Television bureau of the Federal Communications
Commission, Mr. Jerry Jacobs, his chief assistant and several
men from their staff.
Because the F.C.C. was going to start operating on April Z9th
with out a quorum, the bureau chief and his chief assistant were
, required to shorten their meeting with us to just a half hour so
they could attend meetings to provide for the no-quorum contingency.
That half hour was restricted to a definition of the purpose of our
� trip and an expression on the part of all persons concerned to do
the things necessary to gain for Fridley its certification,
�
�
'
'
When the bureau chief excused himself, I suggested to Stephen
Effros, a bright young attorney, who was the trouble shooter, that
he move from his original chair to the chief's chair, so that I
could get into the circle of chairs around the chief's desk. I had
been sitting off to the side. It is possible that my suggestion
could have been the most important single thing that the delegation
from Fridley did in that meeting.
As soon as Attorney Effros sat in that chair he seemed trans-
formed. He immediately took over the responsibility for Fridley's
certification. He personally sought out�the way the certifica�ion
could be accomplished. We reviewed the sieps to be taken, including
a letter from Fridley citing the several instances where the Fridley
Cable Ordinance severence clause would eliminate a conflict with the
F.C.C, rules.
� i
� It was stated that the letter which we had taken with us, would
provide adequate evidence to justify a waiver on the matter of the
$25,000 franchise fee, which will be in excess of the 5� annual fran-
chise fee permitted. Our new budgetary information was felt to warrant
' the 5%.
We left with a good feeling, a feeling �hat we had accomplished
' what we set out to accomplish. We pray that we have not over-estimated
the effectiveness of our meeting.

CHARTER COMNIISSION
May 21, 1974
MEMBERS PRESENT: Ray Sheridan, Cliff Ash, Ole Bjerkesett, Herbert Bacon,
Peg McCesney, Donald Wegler, Edythe Collins, Roy McPherson,
Elaine Knoff, and Harry Crowder.
MEMBERS ABSENT: Jack Kirkham, Robert 0'Neill, Jackie Johnson, Francis Casey,
and Jerry Ratcliffe
Chairman Sheridan opened the meeting at 7:45 p.m.
� ACCE PTANCE OF MINUTES
Mr. Bacon made a motion
Ole Bjerkesett. Upon a
'
,
r
�
that the April 16 minutes be accepted. Seconded by
voice vote, the motion carried unanimously.
REPORT FROM OFFICERS
Mr. Sheridan said he had contacted Mr. Qureshi after the last meeting in
regards to the discussion where the Com-nission was trying to set up a schedule
for getting everything together for the Council and City officials that have to
go at the general election thay may have to be voted upon. A letter was sent
to Mr. Sheridan from the City Manager on May 9 which he set out two dates, the
date of August 7 was set for all the necessary information to be sent to the
Citp Council for ample time for review and for the City staff to have enough
time to prepare the necessary data to meet the legal requirements for the
election. The County Auditor needs to know by September 16 how many items
will be included in the election and the contents of these items. The Council
will require at least a couple of weeks to review the Charter Co�nission's
recommendations. The regular Council meetings are August 19 and September 9,
so the Citq staff would apgreciate the week of September 7 to the 14th to
review the material and prepare supplemental data for the Council.
' Mr. Sheridan felt there would be no problem in meetirig those dates. He said
this in in regards to items that the Commission feels are necessary�.to put on
the ballot for the November 5 election.

REPORT FROM COl�L'�fITTEES
Mr. Bjerkesett pointed out that the recommendation to make a change in the
reqc�iremsnts for a primary have been tab}.ed by the Council, He said it was
probably their intention to receive all t�e changes at the same time.
Mr. Bjerkesett said the original intent of submitting this was to put the
requirements on the books for this fall's election. Mro Sheridan stated that
any changes that take place wi11 not �ake effect until after January 1, 1975
with rEgards to elections or anything elseo
Mr. Ash asked if it was the Council's intention to take all the Charter
recommendations as a package or an individual thing? Mro Qureshi £elt it was
their intention to receive all recommendations at one time, rather than
iadividually.

Mr. Sheridan asked if this would change the_Charter_Commission's,time_���3�dule
so that if they sent a eries of recommendations to change by Ordinance and
Council decided to delete a portion of those items and the Commission felt
strongly towards them to be put before the electorate, would this have to be
accomplished by SepCember 16?
Mr. Sheridan said it was his understanding that if the Charter Commission
recommends a change to the Charter, whether it could be'handled by an Ordinance
to change it or whether it had to go before the electarate, the Charter
Commission had the option of putting it before the electorate. Mr. Bjerkesett
said this could be done without Council's approval but he wondered whether
they could do this on their own authority. Mr. Sheridan said they c�uld
strictly do it on the act3_on of the Charter Commission, and then the electorate
is given the chance to say yes or no.
Mr. Bjerkesett said whatever reconr.mendations are submitted to the City Council,
the Commission should insist upon a response within a given period of time,
whether they act favorably or unfavorably. Mx. Sheridan said tney could have
each item on the ballot as a separate question or as a package.
Mr. Bjerkesett said even though the Council had tabled the recom.*nendation, the ���
Commission should inform the Council they w•ant action on it. Even if the
Council was to act upon it, it would be too late because it requires 6 months
before the election to do so, and the d$adline has passed.
Mr. Bjerkesett suggested the Commission submitting the suggested changes to the
Council and inform them to act upon anything they can, otherutise put i- on the
ballot. Mr. Sheridan said the Commission would pr�bably want to review those
items which would be rejected. The Comsnission would want to support anything
they put on the ballot. This could be done by possibly setting up a special
meeting in the early part of September or late�August.
NEW BUSINESS
Mr. Sheridan said Jackie Johnson had notified him saying that she would not be.
a le to attend this meeting.
Mr. Crowder said he had received so.�e communication from Mrso Johnson. He read
aloud from her letter, raferring to Section 6.04, Subordinate Officerso "The
City Attorney shall be appointed by the Council." MOTION TO CHANGE THAT PORTION
TO READ, "THE CITY ATTORNEY SHALZ BE APPOINTED BY THE CITY MANAGER WITH THE
APPROVAL OF THE COUNCIL." The basis for her motion was that she considered
the City Manager's rvle as one to direc�� and control the Administration of
the City's affairs and the City Attornep's position is one that is part of the
Administrative procedure of the City. She felt the City Manager should have
complete control of his Administration in order to perform his job efficiently,
alang with giving the City Manag�r powers that are above partisan politics and
yet, consistent with the efficient operations of the City's affairs. This
change is in agreement with recommendations raceived"iry the Chartsr Commission
from Councilman Tim Breider, Mr. James Hill, and the League of Women Voters of
Fridley. Motion seconded. .� _ ' •
Mr. Crowder said he agreed with Jackie's motion but felt it should be tabled
till the Commission gets everything together. Mr. Crowder explained that
Jackie was probably not aware of the Council's action taken on'the last motion.

MOTION BY OLE BJERKESETT THAT TFIIS MOTION BE TABLED ON THE ACTION OF SECTION 6.04
TILL THE JUNE MEETING. Elaine Knoff seconded the motion. Upon a voice vote,
the motion carried unanimously.
DISCUSSION WITH CITY MANAGER AND ASSISTANT
Nasim Qureshi and Peter Herlofsky were present at the meeting to discuss the
Charter. They presented the 1974 Model Charter from the League of Minnesota
Municipalities which the Commission had requested from the Administration at
the last meeting. (Absent members will receive copies by mail).
Mr. Qureshi gave copies of material concerning the Charter as the Charter is
ori.ginally written, with update suggestions by the Administration, All changes
from the Administration were underlined. The Charter was reviewed page by page,
and any changes or recommendations were discussed at that time.
Mr. Qureshi went over some of the cocnments made by the past City Manager, Jerry
Davis, He referred to page 7, i.n regards to the Mayor!s authority and it was
recommended to delete the last two sentences in Section 2.07.
� Section 2.10 Intereference with_Administration
Mr. Qureshi said the recommendation was cnade to deleta the first portion of the
first sentence, because the Administration and the policy making body has
, separate functions. Also, a new paragraph was added to this section, previously
made by the Cha.rter Com�nission.
Section 3.01 Council Meetings
� Mr. Qur�shi felt this section should be mads consistent. The sentence should
be changed to, "On the first Monday of January following a regular municipal
election, the Council shall maet at the C�:ty Hall at the usual time for the
, holding ot Council meetings." It should also state that a special meeting
can be held if inembers of the Council waive notice because this is the present
practice.

Section 4.03 Prim�,ry Elections
A few changes were reco�nm�nded in the time of primary elections, which w�re
consistent with the State statutes. The top paragraph on page ll could be left in.
Section 4.05 Judges and Clerks of Election
A change was made from 10 to 2S days in the amount of days before each tnuniciral
election in appointing judges of elections. The remaining section could be left
in.
Section 4.08 Canvass of Elections and Taking of Office
Canvassing oF election r�turns within 7 days could be changed from 5 days.
' Section 6.01 The Citv Manager
Recommendations were added to this section made previouslq by the Charter
Commission. The Charter Commission had indicated one month but Mr. Davis had
a contract that covered two months. Suggestioa was made by the Administration
' to add, "minimum of•1 month and the Council's prerogative to add on."
There was a minor change in Section 6.Olb.
' Mr. Qureshi said the Com��nission had discussed the City Attorney's position,
whether he should report directly to the Council or City Manager or whether
�
�
Page 4
' he should be a staff inember. The Administration's feeling is that there is a
better working relationship working under the direction of the City Manager.
The Administration recommends that he be a member of the City staff. This
, should also be extended to City prosscutore Should be stated as, "The City
Attorney and the City prosecutor shall be appointed by the City Manager."
' Section.6.05 Purchases and Contracts
The Administration received a legal opinion that on these items, the State
statutes sup�rsede the City Charter. These ssctions could be made consistent
with the statutas. The Administration recommended deleting them or updating
' the figures. They recomnsnded deletion of the sentenee, "All contracts, bonds,
�nd iristrixments of e►�ery. �.ind to�rahich ;the City shall b� a pa�ty•-shall be signed
by the Mayor on behalf of the City as well as by the Manager and shall be
, executed on the name of the City." Mr. Qureshi said that anything that involves
s contract is brought before the Council for their approval.
'
'
C!

�C
Mr. Qureshi said many of the figures must be changed. For example, Section 6.06,
the expenditure should be changed from $1000 to $5000. Further studies ara being
made by the auditors.
Section 7.02 Power of Tax�tion
The Charter presently states the figur� of mills is not to exceed 30. This could
be changed to 16 or 17 mills, upon the Charter Commission's prerogative.
Section 7.03 Board of Equalization
Mr. Qureshi said the State statutes call this section, "The Board of Review."
This section says notices of such meetings �h�.11 be g,iven in,th� official ,
newspaper of the Ci.ty at Ieast 15 daps prior to the m�:eting." The State
statutes require 10 days, and this should be made consistent.
Section 7.05 Passa�e of the Budget
Mr. Qureshi said the budget is presently discussed at the first regular monthly
meeting of September,, therefore should be c�ianged from August. Also, in Section
7.14, Accounts and Reports, June 10 is a more realistic date when the financial
operations are to be published in the newspaper, rathe� ti�an Ap�ri1 10. June lU
has been the procedure in the past because the auditor's need the chance to
review everything.
Section 8.05 Public Works: How P2rform�d
The amount of $1000 should be changad to read
State statutes.
$5000 to be consistent with the
GENERAL DISCUSSION
' Mr. Bjerkesett said the information entitied, Suggestions for Review were not
recommendations from the Charter Comnission. These w�re notes [�e had accumulated
and had given to the Commission.
Mr. Bjerkesett felt that Section 2.09 is a follow-up of Section 2.07. The
Mayor had the suthority but the Council has:the power to make investigations
into the City's affairs. He felt all mea�bers of the Council should have the
same pawers.
Further discussion was held oa the section of the City Manager.

Re: Final Plat

fR{DLEY, MINNESOTA 5542t
Dear rir. Dante : .
We recently received a copy of the final plat of the Alice t�all Addition.
The revisions made are all according to our ear].ier request, however, we
noticed that the drainage and utility easement for the 5Q year pond does
emcomUass the area where the two garages are proposed to be built.
I question whether the City will be able to issue building perznits for
structures in a dedicated ease�-nent. You may caant to checl� this with your
lega]. staff and I glan to send a copy of this letter to aur attorney for his
comments. This may appear before the City Council on July l, 1974 if it is
proper for a Council to grant building permits c•�ithin a dedicated ease�ttent.
We also.must settle this matter on par3c fee along with the dedication for
sidewalks along all streets.
4Je have not yet received any petition for improvements for water and sewer
or sidewalks either.
If you have any questions on this matter, please feel free to call me.
Sincerely,

ANOKA COUNTY
6431 UNIVERSITY AVENUE NE FRIDLEY, MINNESOTA 55421
T0: Departments having to do with Bicycle Path Construction
FROM: Harold. J. Belgum, Chairman of Human Relations Committee
DATE : June 11, 1974
I have contacted 70 taxpayers who live in the Riverwood Community and
only 3 of them refused to sign the enclosed petition. This gives you
some idea of what citizens and voters and taxpayers living here would
appreciate from their elected officials, Bikeways would promote better
human relations as well as safety of life and limb for those who choose
to ride bikes rather than pollute the air. May I have your reaction?

MEMO FROM: Jerrold Boardman, Planning Assistant
MEMO DATE: June 7, 1974
RE: Selection of a Citizen Committee For a Bikeway-Walkway
System Study
Attached is a map that we set up for the selection of nine
members to a citizen committee to aid in the development of a
bikeway-walkway system. The divisions that are shown relate closely
to the 28 neighborhoods that were set up in the plan and take into
consideration similar traffic routes and patterns. This should give
us a fairly workable committee that can give us a good cross section
of the entire City.
It will be important to choose people who are interested enough
to be willing to put in time and effort on this study in order to
get good citizen interaction and have good communication with the
citizens in the area they represent.
I would like to get this committee set up as soon as possible
so as to involve them in the initial stages of the planning process.
It is especially important to have this committee working with us in
the early stages of the survey which will be �.'�iti;ated around mid-June.
I have also attached other maps along with the suggested citizen
committee boundary map for your information.

NASIM QURESHI, CITY MANAGER
JAMES P. HILL, ASSISTANT CITY MANAGERJPUBLIC SAFETY DIRECTOR
JUNE 7, 1974
, SUBJECT: ANIMAL CONTROL FINAL RECONIlHENDATIONS
, After considerable deliberation and research into the City's animal control
problems, some of which are refl.ected in the attached data, I feel we are now in
a position to highly recommend that City Council take the following action.
'
�
'
'
'
_' .
�
'
1
'
1) Approve and authorized the signing of the attached contract with
the Metropolitan Animal Patrol Services, Incorporated, effective
August 1, 1974,
2) Authorize the notification of B�E Patrol, Incorporated, of the
termination of their services as of July 31, 1974.
Since my memo to you dated March 22, 1974, on the above subject, I have had dis-
cussion with Steve Olson, our Environmental Officer, who concurs with my recommend-
ations, as well as holding a meeting with Mr. Olson and a representative of the
Metropolitan Animal Patrol Services, Incorporated.
We make our recommendations primarily on two major factors which are as follows.
1}. The services of the BF,E Patrol have been quite unsatisfactory
especially since the death of the previous owner of the company.
In addition, even though the ordinance requires the Police Depart-
ment to have direct supervision over this agency we in fact have
very little knowledge or control of their activities. Under their
operating system we have absolutely no way of confirming that they
work the required number of hours for their annual salary. We have,
as you are well aware, had numerous complaints regarding the service
of this agency by our citizens.
2j The organizational structure, facilities, and equipment of the
Metropolitan Animal Patrol Services, Incorporated, is such that
it would reflect that the City of Fridley and its citizens should
receive a significant increase in the efficiency of animal control.
Same of the distinct advantages that this agency will provide us are
as follows;
a. The Animal Control Officer will work within the City of
Fridley on a pre-established schedule approved by the
Police Department.
b. The Animal Control Officer will check in with the Police
' Department upon beginning his tour of duty and will
receive any complaints that the police officer has
received.

c. Upon leaving the City the Animal Control Officer will
check out with the Police Department and advise the Police
Department of the action taken on the citizen complaints
along with his individually initiated activities.
d. The Metropolitan Animal Patrol Service will issue violation
tags to owners of dogs that are violating the City ordinances.
e. The Metropalitan Animal Patrol Service will sell City dog
licenses to owners of impounded dogs which will be a require-
ment before release of the animal.
f. The Metropolitan Animal Patrol Service will collect an
impoundment fee of $10.00 for each claimed impounded animal.
This amount is returnable to the City of Frid�ey general
fund.
g. The Metropolitan Animal Patrol Service provides 24-hour
- live answering service for all complaints. There wi11 be
a vehicle assigned to respond to calls on emergency basis
after hours. They also have a back-up system in which the
answering service has a list of every employee in the
company whom they are to call if for some reason the on-ca11
individual is not in phone or radio contact thereby assuring
that every complaint is answered.
h. The City of Fridley should appreciate an additional form of
revenue �or the expenditures that the taxpayers are funding
for Animal Control. This revenue will come in the form of
impoundment fees, increased sale of dog licenses, and in
tag violation fees.
� �
For the above reasons and others we feel that it is imperative that City Council
concur with our recommendations if we are to provide a more efficient Animal Control
service to the residents of Fridley. �

JAMES P. HILL, ASSISTt1NT GI'IZ' M,�NAGERJPUBLIC SAFETY DIRECTOR
P�IARCH 22, 1974
REPLY TO YOUR MEMO NUMBER JH-4 REGARDING DOG PROBLEMS
Attached you will find a report by Lt. Ho�aard Rick re�arding information
in possession of the Police Department relative to the current dog
situation. Also enclosed.in Lt. Rick's memorandum is some basic research
that he has completed on the subject.
In reply to your specific two questions in your memo I tivould make the
follo�ving recommendations:
1.
�
In reviewing the existing dog ordinance there does not
appear to be any area that needs revi_sion at this time.
We may want to consider sometime in the future redefining
the ordinance to cover domestic animals rather than
specifically dogs and cats. I do not recommend that this
change be made at this ti.me, however, as there does not
appear to be an immediate and apparel�t need.
1Vith respect to the existing contract �vith B�E Patrol
it appears tha.t their service has been continually
depreciating over the past year. It would therefore be
my recommendation that at a point convenient to the City,
that we serve a thirty-day notice to B�E Patrol concerning
eancellation of their contract.
Prior to cancellation of BF�E contract the City obviously must have an
alternative system. In reviewing Lt. Rick's memorandum it would appear that
t�ao immediate alternatives would be (1) to contract with the Metropolitan
Area Patrol SErvices, Incorporated�of Nlinneapolis. It should be noted,
however, that the cost far this service will be greater than that of BF7E
Patrol. (2) The second alternative would consist of the City af Fridl.ey
initiating its own animalcontrol system. Both of these alternatives appear
reasonable and both have certain advantages and disadvantages.
It would be my suggestion that we pursue the possibility of a��arding a
contract to the Metropolitan Area Patrol Services, Incorporated,£or an
indefinite period of time. Prior to our contracting this service I �vould
have some suggestions in a change of ttie language of the originally sub-
mitted contract. One specific area would be to make the contract effective
on a manth-to-month basis, rather than for an initial ye:.r, with the thirty-aay
cancellation clause attached thereto. If this suggestion is amenable,

we could then explore further the possibillty of the Ciiy initiating its
own animal control system. For the City to i_nitiate its own animal
control system would require some additional research and numerous alter-
natives as to methocls which are not enclosed in fhe attached criteria.
If you have any further questions at this time I would be glad to discuss
them with you.

SUBJECT
MARCH 22, 1974
ANINIAL CON'TROL
In response to the request concerning the Animal Control problem within
Fridley, the following information is submitted for consideration.
In 1973 we had 97 written reports made regarding calls received at the
Police Department about dogs. Of these 16 were handled by direct
referra2 to B�E Patrol with no further police action. The remaining 81
required some police action to resolve them; these may have also included
action by BF�E Patrol. An unknown number of calls regarding animal
complaints were referred directly to B�E with no written xeparts or
further act�:on by the police.
The complaints about $f�E service we received were not recorded, but
generally consisted af citizens heing irritated in that they were dealing
with an anstiaering service when night calls we.re made, and a few about
delay in response. It did not appear that any serious problem•existed
and the response to a police request was reasonable and expeaitious.
Toward the end of the year complaints began generating from our officers
abaut delays, and we began to receive calls from citizens who informed
us they had been refused service at night unless it was aslced for directly
by the Police Uepartment. It was a.ssumed by the officers and shift
sergeants that this was some new procedure agreed to by the City and BF�E
Patrol, and the officers would assess the citizen's proble�s ai�d resolve
it by either calling BF�E or satisfying the citizen in some other way.
�
� ' -2-
In the beginnzng of 1974 several instances occurred wilich the officers
and the technicians felt should be reported so consequently.the four
attached reports, or note, were tivritten. (See attachments A, B, C, and I�.)
At this time the response to police reauests are no longer considered
adequate and a file has been maintained since January of this year to
gather the complaints xeceived from our officers and other sources with
intent to make recommendations for changes in the operating procedures,
or different approaches to the Animal Control Problem.
To simplify introduction of research done in this area, I will address
three different alternatives: Maintaining B�E as the Contracted Service,
Changing the contract to another service, or Instituting the position of
Animal Control Officer as a part of the Police Department.
BFE PATROL
In order to continue the services of the B�E Patrol several distinct
problems would have ta be resolved. It is expected that an Animal Control
Service shauld relieve police officers of the necessity of handling dog
calls in which requirements are such that specialized equipinent is necessary
for such as removal of dead or injured animals, capture of dangerous or
suspected rabid animals, ete. Our squads are equipped to hanclle many
things, but definitely not animals.
It is further expected that such service wi11 provide satisfactory
i.nformation to the inquiries of the citizens and resolve their problems
�vzth a minimum involvement by the Police Department.
/1t this point I am not a�vare of any record being kept as to how much actual
patrol is being done within the City and feel a system of checking ,in and
out with the Poli�e Department would be in order. This cvould also provide
�
� -3-
i �
a contact with the shift sergeant who could convey any special problems to
� the service. This is now accomplishecl by calling the B�,E Patrol. wiih u-�
o t an�
real way to check on ►ahether it is done or not.
� Finally, a definite attitude change is in order which could probably be
resolved th�ough betier communlcation and understanding of mutual p.roblems.
�
�
�
r

Our cost for the present service is $7,200.00 per year for 20 hours of
patrol per week, or about $7.00 per hour. In Deeember, 1973, and January,
1974, records show 12 dogs were picked up, as a result of the patrol. I do
not intend to imply that this was all that was d.one as there tiaere uiidoubtedly
other services rendered, but only cite this to point up the inadeQuate
means of evaluating the results of the service.
METROPOLITAN ANIMAL PATROL SF:RVICES, INC.
In coiisidering an alternative service this one was used since they had
already submitted a contractural �roposal to the City.
The attachments contain descriptive laterature that appears to address all
of the major questio.ns. The cost consideration is higher than we now
pay ($7.00 pr hr BFE -$8.25 px hr MAPSI) and the contract app•ears to cover
about the same areas, tivith a feiv exceptions. 'The services are detailed and
a fee schedule is included.
The letter from the President, Mr. Smieja, con±ains one statement, number 5,
�vhich I felt was contradictory to section 12-d in the contract. I called and
was advised the two situations ar� in �act a clloice between either a flat
$10.00 fee for emergency calls, or the other method of simply deducting
time from the regular patrol to compensate. Mr. Smieja stated this.had
been requested by other communities as a means of staying within a set-
� • :

�
money figure, which then gave them the service of an emergency call and
II , did not add monetary cost. The choice would be made by the City.

�� I checked on their customers and found they service eleven (11) communities,
of whom I contacted four(4).

The third aliernative, to create the position of Animal Control Uff.icer �vithin
the structure of the Police Department, is somewhat more complicated to
assess. The statistical material available is limited to two other
operations being presently used of which both ai:e in their initial year of
existence. Budget breakdowns are attached (t�ttachment 1 and 2) for the combined
Crystal-New fiope operation and the combined Br�oklyn Park-I�laple Grove
operation. Note that the breakdown for Brooklyn Park-Maple Grove is only
for nine (9) months as they started April 1, 1973.
The early evaluations of both operations are favorable and both ivere continued
into 1974 with little change.
It is obviously a great financial advantage to combine funding from two
communities, although some cost could vary, such as number of animals h�used
and the number of miles travelled within the two communities.
In revietiaing the bLidget figures the Crystal-New �Iope Evould probab2y be more
realistic as it includes the purchase of the trt�cic and is for a period af
twelve (12} months,
Cost figures could be reduced by going io a part-time i�asis, hut in reality
would still be close to �ZO,OOO.UO yearly for the first year since kennels
would have to be built and certain procedures would have to be instituted
for collection of fees, release of animals, security and maintenance of the
impounding area.
The cost should drastically decrease in areas where large capital expenditures
are necessary to purchase equipment which will last over a number of years.
It should not be unreasonahle to assume the reduction would be in 'the
area of 30% after the first year.
-6-
This then tyould put us in the area of about $15,000.00 annual expense after
the first year tivith percentage increases reflecting normal cost and wage
raises.
Administration of the program could be handled as a part of the Technical
Support Division which would also perform the necessary support functions.
such as vehicle maintenance, animal releases, etc.
I have inclu�ed as Attachment 4 an excerpt from the Minnesota Municipalities,
March issue, which cites a court case with direct bearing on the responsibility
of the City in regard to this matter.

Lieutenant:
I think something should be done about the B� E patrol.
They are very reluctant to pick up dogs at night. For
some reason they think there mus-t only be strays duri.ng
the xP�,n,tlar working day hours.
T called tonight and let phone ring about twenty times..
FinaZly someane answered and was down right rude.
A woman got on the phone and answered me "Ri.ght ��otia???
I asked her if she thought dogs were only stray dur�.ng
dayl9.gFat hours,, Then she said, "Okp i'll be out and
hung the phone up ori my> ear.
If this a�s a sexvice to the comnunity, then it is a
very strange one. To me they sh�uzd have someone on
ca11 at all hours and i£ it is th�re duty to he on
call then tIiey should n�t be xelucfiant and ri�de about
the idea of doing tIieir job.
Have you tall:ed to any-oz�e about this outfi-�? ,
I'm curious, I:��hy /.-.. _ _ : _ ,

CITY OF FRIDLEY
MEMORANDUM
iYASIM M. QURESHI, CITY MANAGER
MARVIN C. BRllNSELL, ASST. CITY NfGR./FIN. DIR.
SUBJECT: METER DEPOSITS
� DATE: JUNE 21, 1974
' In my memo of April 18, 1974, I pointed out some of the problems
the City now faces because of the new statute requiring the City
to pay interest on meter deposits.
�
'
L_l
'
'
'
,
�
�
'
I have not as yet received any information from the League as to
what some of the other cities are doing who are faced with the
same problem as Fridley.
I do have a recommendation for your and the Council's consideration.
The recommendation is that the City refund all meter deposits but
require the customer to purchase the meter. The customer whould be
allowed to purchase the meter at a depreciated rate. If we assume
a meter has a life expectancy of twenty years, it would be depreciated
five percent per year. This means that a meter that was five years
old would.be purchased at seventy-five percent of cost which would
be seventy-five percent of $25.00 or $40.00 in the case of a single
family residence.
I assume that in any event, the City would maintain the meter free
of charge until such time as a complete replacement of the meter
would be necessary. The customer would then be required to purchase
a new meter.
An alternative would be to take the approach the City of Brooklyn Center
is considering. They are in effect, requiring the customer to purchase
the meter at full cost. If the customer asks for a new meter, rather
tiian keeping the existing one, they will give him a new meter. This sy.stem
would be less complicated to administer than the one outlined above.
Brooklyn Center is also considering buying the meter back from the customer
when he leaves if the customer desires. This is not firmed up at this
ti� however. �
If you and the Council are in agreement with one of these policies, we
will work with Virgil Herrick`s office to make the necessary ordinance
changes.

MEMO FROM:
SUBJECT:
OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER
FRIDLEY, �`�1NNESOTA
JuN� 28, 1974
THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
CITY MANAGER
AUTHORIZATION FOR ADDITIONAL POLICE OFFICERS
Attached herewith is a memo from James P. Hill, Public Safety
Director, outlining the data and justification for additional
Police Officers and requesting authorization for transferring
monies from the Reserve Fund for two additional Police Officers,
for the second half of the year 1974. He has ably explained
the need and justification for his request.
Also, attached to this memo is a report from Marvin C. Brunsell,
Finance Director, regarding the costs of one Police Officer
to the City would be above $.17,000 in 1975 and, over a 20 year
service period, the City would be accepting an obligation of
over $389,000 if certain assump�tions made are correct for the
hiring of one Poli�e Officer. One p�oint I especially want to
bring to the Council's attention is that the City is only funding
the pension cost at 210 of thE salary, whereas, to fully fund
the obligation, we should be funding at 45.60, this is, even �
when the 7o State Insurance rebate is included, the City is
falling behind 17.6a in funding the total pension cost, and there
does not seem ta be a solution in the offering in the near future
because of a number of reasons the Councii is fully aware of.
There is also a 6% levy limitation from the State Legislature
for the Municipalities, and recently, the cost of living has
skyrocketed to the area of 120, and it is going to severly
influence the Municipalities ability in providing existing
services at the same level and will certainly require a great
deal of scrutiny in adding new help and programs, and in estab-
lishing a system of priorities to reasonably stay within the
6% levy limitation restraint and meet cost of living pressures.
This information is being provided to the Council so the Council
is fully advised of all the ramifications and to take into
consideration all the factors so they can make the best deter-
mination for the citizens of the City.
If you need any additional information, please advise me.

NASIM QURESHI, CITY MANAGER
JAMES P. HILL, ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER/
PU$LIC SAFETY DIRECTOR
JUNE 26, 1974
SUBJECT: MIDYEAR REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL POLICE OFFICERS
As you will recall, in October of 1973, City Council authorized
the placing of monies in the reserve fund for two additional
police officers. City Council requested that the Administration
prepare the background data and justification for the authoriza-
tion of these two officers for the second half of 1974, which is
the intent of this memorandum.
To provide the background and justification by scientific compu-
tations we should refer to the study, "A Survey Report of The
Police Department Fridley, Minnesota - S�pt. 1972", and specifi-
cally Chapter III Allocation and Distribution of Manpower p.32.
Through the effort of City Council and the City Administration
we have come a long way in implementating the manpower requirements.
To date we are still deficient three recommended police officer
positions in the field operations; two patrolman in Special Opera-
tions; one patrolman in investigatic�n, and one administrative
assistant (Sgt.). It was my recommendation in 1972 that the
administrative assistant position should not be an additional man-
power authorization but rather a reclassification of position of
the current position ot Chief of Police which can no longer be
justified under our current organization. It is my opinion that
the Chief of Police position be abolished as soon as the current
Chief is eligible for retirement in September of 1974. The patrol-
man position recommended for investigations is being delayed pending
further evaluation and consideration of a modified utilization of
the Anoka County Major Crime Investigation Unit. This still leaves
two police officers for Special Operations, and three police officers
for Field Operations.
I feel that it is very important to emphasize that the manpower
requirements referred to above was based on data computed in 1972.
Since that time our City population has increased and correspand-
ingly so have the calls for police service. As the "report" indi-
cated, the techniques employed to determine the required manpower
and the philosophy determining their application were a departure
from traditional police officer allocation techniques based on
guesswork, rule of thumb, or intuitive judgment. The methods have,
however, proven to be effective in deter�nin ing the proper allocation
of manpower. The basic ingredient, "Workload", is determined by a

tabulation of total called-for police service. This scientific
manpower allocation and distribution is the only system used by
the International Association of Chiefs of Police on a nation-
wide basis today. Should we conduct another comprehensive
study of manpower based on 1973 data, I feel confident that the
recommendations made in 1972 would no longer be adequate. The
Police Administration is fully aware of the high cost involved
with the employment of sworn police officers, and we are reluc-
tantly attempting to hold with our 1972 recommendations and are
studying new concepts in providing adequate police service with
civilian employees in the field to fill future requirements
beyond the 1972 recommendations.
Another method of making comparisons and determining manpower
requirements is by evaluating data published by the F.B.I.
Uniform Reports. Information from this publication based on 1972
data reflects the following as it relates to Full-Time Law Enforce-
ment Officers:
Average number of officers
511 cities - Per 1,000 inhabitants Fridley - based on
25,000 to 50,000 population 32,000 population and
27 sworn officers
1.6
602 cities West North Central -
25,000 to 50,000 pupulation
1.3
Suburban Police Agencies
3,022 agencies
1.5
.84
.84
.84
This system I consider a rule of thumb method which reflects
averages and trends only.
The jurisdiction which has the most comparable population would be
Coon Rapids with 34,000 compared to Fridley's 32,000. Coon Rapids
has 37 authorized sworn police positions which would compute to
1.08 officer per 1,000 inhabitants compared to Fridley's .84.
These figures are also offered as a commonly used method which
should be considered as information only and lacks the justifica-
tion of a scientific manpower study described in the first part of
this memorandum.

FOR ADDITIONAL POLICE OFFICERS
It is anticipated that two midyear authorized positions will
be utilized to fill �he recommended position in Special Operations.
To reiterate from the survey report, the basic concept of this
type of unit is to provide back-up services to the main Patrol
thrust. These services may take many varied forms but generally
can be described as functions by individual officers of a special-
ized nature which, when performed by a member assigned to Patrol,
will detract from his effectiveness in his primary function of
providing Patrol services.
Some of the Special Operation Unit tasks lie in the areas of
� specialized Crime Prevention (Operation Identification, etc.),
Specialized Traffic and Accident Problem analysis, Public Rela-
tions, Training and Supervision of the Police Auxiliary. In addi-
� tion it is our intent to develop and initiate a City-Wide Bicycle
Safety Program by fall of this year.
L_ J
�
�
�

The routine requirements of Patrol officers are such that they
can only exert a token effort in most of these areas and concentrate
for the most part in Traffic Control, Accident Investigation, and
Preliminary Complaint Investigation. The_development of the Team
assignments was intended to more closely assess the aceountability
for these three general areas, and eventually broaden into a fully
implemented Team concept which would include these special opera-
tions as part of each Team's task.
We still find that the public expects from us a continuance of
service like Snowmobile and Motorcycle Patrol, Speaking appearances
by officers, Operation Identification, and the many other services
that have been provided. We also find the need for special tasks
such as surveillance of high burglary areas and radar use for
Traffic Control and Accident Prevention. From an economical and
efficiency standpoint we find that these and other special services
can at this time be provided by a small
organized for this purpose in the sense
than adding personnel to the Teams.
group of persons in a unit
of a support function rather
Some hard data is available showing the hours which have been
expended in some of these special areas. The Tactical Squad appli-
cation in December of 1972, and again in December of 1973, used
approximately 400 hours of overtime work. The Operation Identifi-
cation program used a total of 180 hours of extra time plus approx-
imately 45 on-duty hours. The two officers assigned to this have,
due to their personal interest in the program, donated many extra
hours of their time. The motorcycle patrol has found much enthu-
siasm with the citizens, but our patrol requirements have severely
limited the availability of qualified and licensed operators. At

this time we have provided approximately 30 hours of patrol.
� The recorded snowmobile complaints for 1973 amounted to 44 and
in some cases we were able to patrol the areas. It is somewhat
simpler since the operator skill is not a restricting factor
as with the motorcycle. We managed to provide 40 to 60 hours of
� � patrol. In total we then.find approximately 695 hours spent in
these four special operations.
�
. �
The officers assigned to Sgecial Operations would also be scheduled
to cover 230 days of vacation time taken each year by the Patrol
officers, and fill in on sick days and other vacancies with the
goal ot maintaining an adequate level of manpower on patrol duties.
Based on these projected hour needs and anticipated use of these
� people to supplement the Team effort in their specialized areas,
the addition of the two patrolmen originally requested is recom-
mended.

The Fridley Police Civil Service Commission is currently conduct-
ing examinations for the position o£ police officer since we do
not have an active list. We have one vacancy to fill due to the
retirement of Sergeant Fritz which has resulted in one of our
police Teams being short one man.
Applicants in the current process are either experienced palice
officers or individuals who have completed two years of education
in law enforcement plus completing the State basic recruit school.
It will therefore be unnecessary to lose this particular group of
applicants for basic recruit school training should they be
appointed.

SUBJECT: COSTS OF A POLICE OFFICEP,
DATE: JUNE 27, 1974
You have asked about the cost of a Police Officer, including the cost.
of fringe b2nefits. I am giving you this information on a separate
sheet. t�!e have projected the cost of a Police Officer over a tvienty
year period, assuming a starting date of July 1, 1974. It is assumed
that the salaries �vill be raised five percent a year and that the
insurance costs, pension costs, etc. will remain at the same percentage
of salary as they are at the present time.
The cost for the year 1974 perhaps should be separated from the year
1975 and beyond. One o� the reasons for this is that the pension
contribution by the City for 1974 is set. Of course, if the City v;ere
to employ additional Policemen, thz liability for the pension costs
will accrue even though there is no cash d�isbursed at this time.

� DESCR'tPTION OF CONTENTS OF EACH OF TFIE COLUMII'S ON THE ATTACHED t•JORK SHEET
BASE S.ALARY
II , This assumes a starting base salary of $830 a mor.th, which is the present
starting salary for a Patrolman. It is assumed that salaries will increase
I� � five ercent a ear and that the atrolman will rogress through the five
P Y P P
step schedule as they do at the present time.
EDL'CATIO�T ALLO:�[�NCE
'� A Patrolman can earn up to ,572 per month additional pay for college credits.
We have made the assumgtion that the average patrolman hired would have two
�
years of college and would therefore be eligible for half of this allowance.
, They are not eligible during the first twelve months of employ.ment.
INSURAi\CE - HOSPITALIZATION AND T�70RK{�iEN' S COMPEPdSATION
� This averages about 6.7% of salary �or Police Officers at the present time
t and we will continue to use this percentage.
UNIFORM ALLOtJANCE
The present uniform allocvance is $175 per year. We have assumed an increase
� of five percent per year over the t�aenty year span.
CITY PENSION CONTRIRUTION - TWENTY-ONE P�:RCENT
This is the present rate of contribution the City is making to the pension
association. This does not meet the State Guidelines Act and does not fund
the present plan. The present plan wiZl continue to build a larger deficit
if the City's contribution rate remains at twenty-o�e percent.
SUBTOTAL - CITY'S PRESENT COST
This column shows direct costs to the City at the present level of pension
support.
�
�
�
STATF INSUR�1r�C� CONTF.IBUTION
The City receives an insurance rebate on automobile policies written,
which is turned over to the Police Retirement Fund. At the present time
this averages about seven percent of the Police Officers' salary.
COST OF PEIvSIQV k UND NOT FUNDF.D
This is a difference between the stated actuarial cost of the pension plan
at 45.6% less 21%, present contribution, and less 7% insurance contribution.
TOTAL COST
This is a total cost of a patrolman per year. This assumes that.the total
cost of the pension plan will be paid, tahether it is paid at the present
time or at some future date.

MEMO FROM:
PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT
CITY OF FRIDLEY
Nasim Qureshi, City Manager
Ralph Volkman, Superintendent of Public Works
MEMO DATE: June 28, 1974
SUBJECT: Request for Cold Storage Building
The Public Works Department is requesting the City
Council to appropriate $10,848.00 to be used with the $4,000.00
of budgeted money to purchase a steel cold storage building. The
size of the building is 36 feet by 60 feet.
I feel the Public Works Department needs the additional
cold storage area because of the extreme shortage of space for stor-
ing equipment, material and supplies. For detailed description, see
Justification Analysis.
The building we are proposing is of a low profile nature.
It will also blend in with the present structure. This building will
have two twelve foot sliding doors, plus one service door. It is of
baked-on enamel. It has a variety of colors -- white, red or mint
gold. The upper overhang is constructed in two manners: one is a
cedar shake, and one is a white shingle. The overall height of this
building will be fifteen �eet. Our present structure is approximate-
ly eighteen feet high. This building will be constxucted on the
southern end of the Corporation Yard. �
We feel that this is the most economical way to obtain
cold storage space. In comparison, a concrete structure of the same
size would cost us in the neighborhood of $30,000.00, We firmly feel
. that this cold storage building, as proposed, will fit our needs and
will not deter from the appearance of the present structure and
grounds.

MEMO FROM:
DATE:
SUBJECT:
PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT
CITY OF FRIDLEY
Nasim ��ureshi, City Manager
Ralph Volkman, Superintendent of Public Works
March 22, 1974
Justification and Analysis of the Need for Additional Cold
Storage Located within'the Municipal Garage Property
We have completely studied and analyzed all departments re-
quiring additional cold storage room to accomodaCe more supplies, mater-
ials, miscellaneous inventory and equipment.
The following breakdown is by department and estimated in
square feet:
A. PARK DEPARTMENT
1. Fertilizer: Total storage = about 19 tons a year
15' x 7' = 105 sq. ft.
� - The fertilizer and grass seed now stored in the City Garage
can be put in cold storage. We could use the heated part of the Garage
for equipment that should not be in cold storage.
�
'
�
�
2. �rass Seed: Total storage = about 2 tons a year
Cement 6' x 6' = 36 sq. ft. (cement = 25 bags)
The grass see3 is stored in a dangerous location, whereby a
man taking it down from the platform might drop it on someone (see pic-
tures ��l and ��2) . Total square feet = 141.
B. STREET DEPARTMENT (Outside Storage Area)
l. Miscellaneous Tools: Rakes, shovels, brooms, jack
hammer and accessories, wacker-
packer and miscellaneous
3' x 12' = 36 sq. ft.
These materials now stored by the Street Department in the
garage (please note pictures ��3 �nd ���+ are taking up heated space
which could be used for other th�.n�s, as well as, they are in the way of
other equipm�_nt, especially the s�,1a11 plows.
�:
2. Si�n Storage: All street signs, stop, traffic signs, etc.
4' x 15' = 60 sq. fC.
The'sign equipment that is stored is also taking up heated
space. If we could add fifty square feet to the siga storage area, par-
tition it off and heat it, we could do a lot of sign work in the winter
time. We now spend 1,158� hours on sign maintenance per year. This is
one man's time for one-half year. This room would be 10' x 11' for a
total of 110 square feet. (See picture ��5)
3. Street Marking Equipment: Stencils and paint, spray gun
4' x 12' = 48 sq. ft.
1
�
,
page Two
MEMO: JUSTIFICATION AND ANALYSIS OF THE NEED FOR ADDITIO�tAL COLD
STORAGE LOCATED WITHIN THE MUNICIPAL GARAGE PROPERTY
B. STREET DEPARTMENT (Continued)
These could be put in cold storage (Street marking equipment).
4. Sweeper Brooms: 12' x 10' = 120 sq. ft.
� Sweeper broo�u, main brooms and gutter brooms are purchased
through the Hennepin County Bid, so that we have to buy a one-year's sup-
ply in advance and store on our property (note picture ��6)• In the past,
we stored these inside the building. This winter wa removed them from the
� building because of lack of space, and covered them and store3 them outside.
,
5. Salt Storage: Storage of salt for winter ice conditions
12' x 20' = 260 sq. ft.
6. Calcium Chloride; Storage of calcium chloride needed
for winter ice conditions (3 tons)
7` x 9' = 63 sq. ft.
, The calcium chloride storage building is a converte3 truck
box. This is an unsightly sCora,ge area, and i feel this m�terial should
be store3 inside the cold storage building. (See picture ��7)
TOTAL = 527 sq. ft.
C. SEWER DEPARTMENT
1. Sewer Chemicals: Sewer aid (1 ton - 40 pails)
5' x 10' = 50 sq. ft.
The Sewer Department stores two basic chemicals in the Ga-
rage. They are stored in the open against the wall (note pictures ��$)
and ��9)• One of the chemicals is copper sulfate, stored in bags. It
comzs in light blue crystal form. The otlzer chemical is the sewer aid
which comes in plastic containers and steel containers. I feel these
chemicals could be a hazard in case of fire. 'I'hey could emit noxious
gases and be very harmful to fire fighters or employees ca.�ning in con-
tact with the fumes. I feel this situation is very dangerous.
2. Sewer Equi�ment: One (1) 6 inch trailer pump
One (1) rodding machine & accessories
500 ft. of fire hose
sewer couplings (plastic)
14' x 15' = 210 sq. ft.
The rodding mschine is used twelve months of the year, and
it should be protected from the elements. We now store this machine in-
side during the winter (note picture ��11.). If we could put this in cold
storage, out of the elements, this space could be put to better use.
The six inch pump (see picture 12.)is not used a great deal. If we do
need it, we are never sure if it will run or not, even though we keep
constant maintenance on it. I feel that storing equipment outside cuts
down on the life of same.
TOTAL = 310 sq. ft.
� �
Page Three
MEMO: JUSTIFICATION AND ANALYSIS OF THE NEED FOR ADDITIONAL COLD
STORAGE LOCATED WITHIN THE MUNICIPAL GARAGE PROPERTY
D. SHOP
1. Equi�ent: One (1) sand blaster
3' x 4' = 12 sq. ft.
The Shop has a number of pieces of equipment that are used
by all departments, but they are still considered Shop equipment. The
sand blaster (see picture �� 12)is now stored by the trucks, next to a
post. It takes up too much space in the wintertime, nee�ed by trucks
with snowplows on them. This a3ds to the cluttered look.
2. Additional Tractor tires, sno;a tires (summer)
Tire Storage: 10' x 12' = 120 sq. ft.
With the increasing number of vehicles, our tire supply is
also increasing. We 3o keep many tires on hand, especially for the
Police Department vehicles (note picture �� 13). With cold storage, we
could m��ve 60'10 of the tires now stored in the heate� area. With the
removal of most of the tires from the heated garage, this space could
be used for storage of paint. We now keep paint in two different areas.
I believe we �ould consolidate everything into one area. This would
make it fireproof.
3. Licjuid Storage: Four (4) 55 gal. drums anCi-freeze
Two (2) 55 gal. drums windshield washer
4' x 10' = 40 sq. ft.
We now store ��10 weight oil, 4�30 weight oil, transmission
oil, 55 gallon drums windshield washer and 55 gaLlon drums anti-freeze
outside (note picture �,�14). This may be okay to store in the open as
shown, �ut it does leave the barrels open to the weather and possible
water seepage into the barrels, in case vandals might puncture the drums,
or if caps are not put on tight. This cauld ruin a whole barrel of
material. I feel these materials should be stored in a weather-tight
area. There is a great deal of value in these materials.
4. Miscellaneous Four (4) oxygen and acetylene tanks
Equipm�nt: i�Iiscellaneous used inventory for repair
equip�ent
5' x 8' = 40 sq. ft.
We have acetylene gas tanks stored in the Shop area. There
are four of them. They are stored where we ha�e welding and cutting
material. We must remove these from the area, according to OSHA stan-
dards. They are hazardous in their present locations (see picture ��15)
We have a porta-power and a high pressure washer, now stored between
sCalls in the Garage area (see picture ��'16). On this picture, we can see
why it is difficult for mechanics when woricing on vehicles stored in the
aisles -- which may be a violation, according to OSHA rules. This also
makes for hard housekeeping.
TOTAL = 212 sq. ft.

D.M. Noyes Construction Company/Home Owners Insurance
The above subject project was compl.eted by the City of Fridley upon the default of
the contractor, D.M. Noyes Construction Company and the financial failure of the
bonding company, Home Owners Insurance Company. Upon completion of this project
$9,408.02 was on hand in the City of Fridley and is being retained in lieu of a
maintenance bond not being available since the bonding company is no longer in
business.
On April 16, 1974, we brought to your attention a claim from Les' Standard Station
for gas purchases made by the contractor and not paid for by the contractor or the
bonding company.
Enclosed herewith please find a copy of the followxng:
1. Letter to Comstock & Davis from ltichard Sobiech, Assi't Engineer, City of
Fridley, dated May 22, 1974.

Department Foreman, dated May 16, 1974
4. Letter to City of Fridley from Keith Zimmerman, Berghorst Plumbing and Heating,
dated May 22, 1974
5. Invoice No. 133 from A..T. Chromy Construction Company, dated May 22, 1974, to

Based on these documents we recommend that the City of Fridley reimburse Berghorst

of Fridley Public Works Department $646.40 from the funds on hand being maintained

CAPITOL SQUARE BUILDING

Dear Mayor Liebl:
The Minnesota Enviranmental Quality Council on May 14,� 1974 required
the preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement on the City of
Fridley's proposal to construet a golf course at the site known as
"North Park". The City of Fridley was designated as the Responsible
Agency for the preparation of this Environmental Impact Statement.
In view of the fact that a referendum vote on fVovember 5, 1974 will
determine whether the North Park site wil7 be used as a golf course
or a nature center, the Environmental Quality Council has grante�
the City of Fridley a time extension for preparation of the Environ-
mental Impact Statement. The Draft Environmental Impact Statement
will be due on March 5, 1975, which is 120 days from the date of the
referendum.
�
' After the Draft Environmental Impact Stat�ement has been submitted to
the Environmental Quality Council, the City of Frid7ey must hold a
public meeting or hearing for review of the Draft. The record must
, remain open for not less than 45 nor more than 90 days after submittal
of the Draft Environmental Impact Statement for receipt of comments.
Thirty days after the record c7oses, the Fina] Environmental Impact
Statement must be filed with the Environmental Quallty Council, which
' then has 45 days to decide whether to review the Final Environmental
Impact Statement.
' Based upon Fridley City Counci7 Resolution #53-1974, it was the
understanding of the Environmental Quality Council that no construction
activity related to the golf course would take place unti7 after the
' referendum vote is conducted. If the outcome of the referendum
supports the construction of a golf course, and it is the City's wish
to commence construction prior to acceptance of the Final Environmental
Impact Statement, then I suggest that the City of Fridley request the
' Environmental Quality Council to allow the commencement of construction.
Sincerely,
, ��i�� •

Dear Mayor Liebl:
This month has seen a change in the top managPment of your Metropolitan
Disposal System. As the new Chairman of the Metropolitan Sewer Board,
I believe zhe follo�ving szatement is a key concept in understanding how
the Board views,its responsibility: �he Board will operate iche agency
as a trust on behalf of the citizens of the Twin Cities Metropolitan
Area.
��
Area 612, 222-8423
As part and parcel of this trust, I see our mission as being that of
managers of an outstanding and efficient regional service delivery
system. One aspect of carrying out our mission is to encourage ci�izen
participation in the public decision-making process -- both in the broader
sense and from the viewpoint of government officials.
' It is my intention to provide a genuine continui�y of the positive effect
the Board's programs are having on our regional environment, wnile
concurrently strengthening the Board's ties with our government officials.
�I
�
'
�I�
Your assistance in helping us carry out the responsibilities of managing
this agency is vital.
Warm Regards,

Dear Mr. Sobiech:
Refer to your letter of June 7, addressed to Mr. Herman,
Agent at liinneapolis, regarding difficulties at Mississippi
Street crossing account crossing signals in down position when
no apparent movement of trains in the vicinity.
We have experienced considerable difficulty with vandalism
in this area, particularly with youngsters pulling the bond
wires off betcaeen the rail points, which has the effect of
activating the signals just as tho a train were in the cir-
cuit.
When such conditions are repo=ted our Signal I�Iaintainer is
called immediately and takes what remedial action is necessary
to insure proper operation on the signals.
Very truly yours,
S''��•i.!� r'- � >

Dear Mr. Qureshi:
176 East Fifth Street

Telephone (612) 227-0911
June 28, 197�+
In connecticn with the pernission granted Burli.ngton Northern
by the City Council on April l5, 1974, to cflnstruct a temp�rary
access road from the TOFC axea in our yaxd on to Ma.in Street in
the vicinity of 48th Avenue, N.E.
' The construction which necessitated the rerouting of truck
traffic has been completed and use oi the tecr�oraxy access will
be discontinued effective June 29. It is realized that the
loca.l residents and the City of Fridley have been inconvenienced
, to a great degree by our operation, and we are most appreciative
of their patience.
' Gonsiderable effort a.nd noney has been expended by Burlington
Northern to meet the commitment to hold clown the dust created by
use of the road. The road was constructed using a 6" limestone
' base ma,terial wnich was then treated with road oil. In addition,
the roa,d has been. watered neaxl,y every week day, excluding d.ays
when it rained.
�'I�
�I
'
'
,
'
L__!
Main Street has been swept and washed on two occasions, and will
be cleaned again on P�Ionday, Ju1y 1st. Even with this caxe,
dust has been a definite problem.
7�e sprin� has been unusually windy, and the heavy rains have
created considerable mud which was carried onto the temporary
road as well as Niain Street.

This is in reference to our telephone conversation of June 18, 197�.,
regarding the John Erickson Park, the speed limit and the request
for a street light.
The area concerned is on Osborne Road bet�rzen Lakeside and Pleasant-
view Drive.
This area mentianed has the John Erickson park e�ra t�e Nortk �ide
of the street, erith playground and svrimm�ng facilities.
The speed limit is t�0 mph, which �ve feel should be lowered. There
, 3s an excessive amount of trafiic. Vde feel tnat some type of signs
indicating this is a playground should be ins�alled, as th� approach
to this area is blind fram both direciions.
We also would like to have a street 1.ight installed.
Anything concerning the above m�t�ter c�rould be greatly appreciated.
