LIEBL, MAYOR . � �� , i; n March 8, 197� Mr. Pete Sto ley Assistant Ci y Administrator City Hal l Northfield, innesota 55057 Dear Mr. Sto ley: In response o your inquiry of February 28 concerning municipal environmental commissions, we are sendi g the following materials: � Cottage Grove Ordinance Nos. 132 and 185 436A Minneto ka Ordinances Nos. 92 and 92-1 436A Edina 0 dinances Nos. 105 and 105-A1 . 436A ' Crystal Ordinances Nos. 70.6 and 71.18 436A Directo y of Environmental Commissions in the Twin Cities Area 436A Misc. I have spoke to one knowledgable person in each of the above communities about their environmenta commissions, I have attempted only to discover if the commissions are oper- ating, and w th what scope and with what effectiveness they are operating. If you are interested i further communication with any of the persons I spoke with, please contact me a ain. What I learned about these few commissions follows: Cottaqe G The Cottage rove commission was established in July, 1970 by ordinance. It's name, and hence it functions and duties, were changed, shortly thereafter. It is now the Cottage Grov Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission. They have turned their attention fr m environmental considerations to parks and recreation planning. Review vf de elo ment ro osals with re ard to environmental considerations is done b the Plannin Commission staff. Mr. Rick Lewis of that staff told me that they construe their zoning ordinance enclosed) to allow them to require any type of information from a developer ith a proposal, up to and including a full-blown Environmental Impact Statement. r. Lewis feels that their review process is highly effective, but it certainly is not visible at all to the public. Edina The Edina En �ronmental Quality Commission was established in Novmeber of 1971, and has been ope ating rather successfully since then. Their philos phy, as expressed by Dr. Ronald Hays, the chairperson, is that they can be most effe tive b wQrkin with the Cit Council, rather than fighting them. To this purpose they attempt to anticipate problems, rather than review current proposals. They have dr fted several ordinances which have been ado ted b the Council includin flood lain onin , sign zoning, soil erosion and removing or cutting vegetation. ��ont.) . Mr. Pete Sto�ley Page 2 Or. Hays fee s that the commission had been very effective, since the ordinances whi:ch have been ad pted are working and effecting development in the city. Minnetonka The Minneton in 1971, as impact of pr City." Acco commission, of the City Basically, a Environmental Quality and Natural Resources Commission was established review board concerned with "appraising and advising on the environmental posed undertakings by the City, by residents or by developers within the ding to Mr. Peter Johnson, Minnetonka Planning staff liason with the he commission is presently being dissolved as part of a general reorganization overnm�:nt in Minnetonka. ie Commission has not worked, for all of the following reasons: a) The had difficulity establishing goals andstandards for review of�proposals. b) The had conflicts with the Planning Commission over procedures, and areas of esponsibility. c) The met anly monthly and the Planning Commission met twice monthly sa that the Environmental Quality Commission "was always one step behind." d) The members of the Commission were not rofessionals in the field. Developers usu lly submit impact statements which are highly technical, and difficult for lay eople to deal with. Crystal The Enviromm �tal Commission in Crystal was also established in 1971 by ordinance. t is strictly advisory to the city council. The commission has done research and made recommendations to the council in the areas of non-returnable containers, itterin , and ener conservation. They also have participated in a stud of the uali of Twin Lakes, and have Task Forces which deal continuously with citizen education an attention to le islation. The Commissi n is currently working on a proposal for a resource recycling center, and in a joi t effort with Brooklyn Park, an environmental park. The commission has begun wo k on the form for an environmental impact statement requirement, but has made no form 1 proposals to the council. According to Mr. Lundeen, Administrative Assistant in Crystal, the commission's only problem has een with attendance at meetings. There is a group of ten or twelve people in th community who are interested in environmental concerns, but usually only four or five attend meetings. A quorum is six members, so often action is stymied for lack of quorum. Mr. Lundeen oes recommend the organization of the commission in Crystal as one that might be suc essfully copied. � , . �Mr.' Pete Sto ley � ' Page� 3 , ,� March 8, 1974 In addition o the information above, Mr. Peter Johnson of Minnetonka had some suggestions or an alternaiive method of environmental review of development pro- posals. 1) Mr. Johnson would suggest that advocates of "open space" be added to the Park Boa d. These persons would help to advance proposals for the acquisition of lan for "open space" purposes, as opposed to land for only organized or sem -organized recreational purposes. 2) He lso suggest that attention to environmental considerations be made a formal par of the review process of the Planning Commission or Planning Depart- men . One way to accomplish this would be to amend zoning and subdivision ord nances to include requirements for some type of environmental impact sta ement in the plans of proposed developments. Mr. Johnson is adamant in the belief that an Environmental Commission made up �f la eo lz, with mandatory review power over development proposals, will not work. - His suggesti ns for an alternative, I realize, may not satisfy those in Northfield who are pressing for a commission of citizens. However, Mr. Johnson does have experience with the onl mandatory review commission about which I have any information. I hope this answers your questions and serves your purposes. If there is any other assistance I can offer, please feel free to contact me again. Yours truly, Leslie M. Frolst Research Assilstant LMF;cmo Encl. i . , Y `t , . .

As you are well aware, t ing communities in the m able difficulty with the ational vehicles for the difficulties the elected Enforcement officials ar many problems connected metropolitan area. Hist are received regarding t plaints are received on individually have attemp As a result of the annua ie City of Fridley and all other surrouna- �tropolitan �rea have experienced consider- control of sno��umobiles and other recre- past few years. As a result of these officials, Cit:y management, and Law � continually attempting to resolve the vith the use of these vehicles in the �rically every spring a rash of complaints ie use of minibikes and every winter com- :he use of snow.mobiles. The various cities :ed, year after year, to address this issue. L consideration of this problem, city ordinances continue to be moditied and expanaea. rlost cities nave now found themselves in a rather nebulous situation of attempting to enforce a conglomerate of various rules and regulations. I had an occasion today to talk to Chief Nelson from Coon Rapids who expressed to me that they have considerable problems with complaints regarding snowmobiles at this time. In further discussion with Chief Nelson I find that they have a considerable amount of ordinances and regulations governing the use of snowmobiles including the re- quirement of permits. Chief Nelson's comments are basically the same as those that I have received from other Law Enforcement offi- cials that the ordinances are practically impossible to enforce. The unforceability of ordinances basically rests with the multitude of variances that exist within each ordinance and within ordinances of each city coupled with the extreme difficulty of practically apprehending snowmobile violators due to their fast mobility from the time of the complaint to the time the officer arrives on the scene. This is also coupled with the great variance in age of the snowmobile operators. Apparently as a result of this rather difficult situation on a. state-wide basis, our State legislature, on April 11, 1974, approved a new statute(84.90) governing the limitations on the operation of recreational motor vehicles. In reviewing this rather simplistic law we find it to be quite practical although a strict enforcement. of this new statute has not been initiated as of this time. Of particular importance in Minnesota Statute 84.90 is subdivision 2, which in essence states that within the seven-county metropolitan Mr. Qureshi January 25, 1975 Snowmobile Ordinance 2 area, na person shall enter and operate a recreational motor vehicle on lands not his own, except where otherwise allowed by law, without the written or oral permission of the owner, occupant, or leasee of such lands. Written permission may be given by a posted notice of any kind or description that the owner, occupant, or leasee prefers, so long as it specifies the kind of vehicles allowed, such as saying "Recreational vehicles allowed", "Snowmobiles allowed", "Trail bikes allowed", "All terrain vehicles allowed", or words substantially similar. Another important section of this law is subdivision 6 which states that nothing in this section shall limit or otherwise qualify the power of municipalities of the state to impose additional restric- tions or prohibitations on the operation of recreational motor vehicles on property not owned by the operator in accordance with law. � As I had previously alluded to we in the City of Fridley have done extensive research and work regarding the problem of recreational motor vehicles ouer the past few years. Both the City Manager's and Public 5afety Director's office have extensive files on samples of various ordinances throughout the Twin Cities area, as well as a proposed ordinance that I had personally drafted for review by the City Attorney in the early part of 1974. In addition the City Attorney had submitted a memorandum to City_Council on April 15, 1974, listing three alternative actions the Council could have taken regarding the snowmobile or recreational vehicle prob- lems. The City Attorney also had attached to his memorandum a draft of an ordinance that he had prepared. Due to the voluminous nature of all of this material I am not attaching same to this memo- randum, however the material is available for review. It should be noted, however, that all. past material and proposed ordinances would have to be modified in light of the latest State statute. I�would like to call to the Council's attention the extreme diffi- culty the Fridley Police have had in attempting to enforce our current ordinance 703.022. This ordinance states that no person shall operate a snowmobile upon the right of way of any municipal street except for the limited purpose of transporting said snow- mobile from the place of the owner's re:sidence to property that has been authorized for snowmobile use. Th.e police officers have found this particular ordinance to be practically impossible to enforce for obvious reasons. Almost without ex:ception all individuals stopped on City streets state they are going to and from the desig- nated area. This law then in effect ha.s given violators a tapl to use to avoid being charged with a viola.tion. This, of�course, is somewhat frustrating to the police offi.cer, but in reality it becomes much more frustrating to those citizens that are disturbed by the snowmobiles being operated upon the streets. It becomes very difficult for the complaining citi.zens to understand why "the police can not or will not do anything" or why "the police simply stop the snowmobiler and let him go". Mr. Qureshi January 25, 1975 Snowmobile Ordinance 3 I could now list various alternative actions City Council could take from the extremities of not doing ,�nything to total abolition of the use of snowmobiles in the City of Fridley. I do not fee1, however, that the extremes are very pra��tical to implement. For this reason it would be my recommendati��n that Cit� Council simply direct the City Attorney to draft a new ordinance which addresses limitations of the use of "Recreational motor vehicles", rather than our current ordinance regarding "S:nowmobiles". In drafting this ordinance I would strongly urge th.at the primary portions of Minnesota statute 84.90 be utilized. In addition, I would suggest that the City Attorney receive recommendations from the � Police Department regarding additional restrictions,that need be added to this ordinance with respect to the use of snowmobiles in the designated areas. Such sections would basically address the issue of maximum speed, hours of operation, et cetera. It would also be my recommendation that the current City Ordinance 703 regarding snowmobiles be abolished by enactment of the redefined recreational motor vehicle ordinance. With the abolition of our current snowmobile ordinance I would also recommend that the section permitting the use of snowmobiles on City streets simply be not addressed which would make it a violation, or specifically addressed making it a violation to operate on any City streets except under certain emergency conditions. This in effect would require those snowmobilers who desire to use designated City areas to trailer their snowmobiles to the areas. It would then be practical for Law Enforcement officials to tag those violators operating on public roadways since the operators would then have no defense for such action. I should also like to call to your attention that in Dan Huff's memo to you on January 9, 1975, regarding his phone �� survey that 9 of the 19 communities, abc�ut 50%, do not allow public streets to be utilized for the operation of snowmobiles. It is fully realized that this will create some hardships on some people and that Council more than likely will receive several complaints from legitimate snowmobilers regarding this type of action. This, however, is strictly a political policy determination that must be made by City Council. If it is Council's desire to allow the use of the City streets by snowmobilers for the purpose of operating to designated areas, it may be more feasible simply to allow all City streets to be used by snowmobilers under certain restrictions. As drastic a°measure as this may sound, we must understand that the current ordinance regarding this subject is practically u.nenforceable and becomes a causation factor for strained public relations for those citizens that want and demand the law enforced. I appreciate the fact that the control and use of recreational vehicles, particular snowmobiles, is a very delicate situation. I feel Council should also keep in mind. that the majority of complaints that all of us receive regar�ding this subject matter are basically from those people that do not enjoy the noise or appreciate the use of these machines. Consideration should be . • � ` . . Mr. Qureshi January 25, 1975 Snowmobile Ordinance given, however, to the many users of snowmobilers who may become alarmed over further restrictions on their use within the City. For your information I am attaching a copy of the latest State statute regarding recreational motor vehicles, as well as the snowmobile regulations that have been in existence by State statute for sometime. 4 s.,^ F+ 3`rr .Idircnr `e�n�, . _T �o�..�^ v. , •,� r 1..
