He said the applicant has two buildings on adjacent property and would like to construct an addit�orito joint the buildings. He pointed out the area being considered on Page 1-F of the Council agenda. The Pub]ic Works Director pointed out at the Planning Commission Meeting of May 21, 1975;�the Commission recommended approval of the request with several stipulations. He read the suggested st�pulations which appeared on page 1-D of the Council agenda book. ke said the City had received correspondance from NSP and PJorthv�estern .Bel1 and they have no objectfons to the vacation if the removal or relocation cost of the lines is reimbursed. The Pubiic Works Director read the fourth stipulation dealing with the approval of the remainder of the area residents and asked if Mr. Schaul was present at the meeting. There was no response. Mr. William Super, 190 Liberty Street N. E., addressed the Council and commented that he would also like to have the alley vacated. He said the area is planted with lawns and no one uses the area as an alley. , The Public Works Director said most of the abutting property owners are using this area for lawns. He indicated the only one who uses the alley for access is P-9achin�ng Inc. for access�to their existing building. 7he Public �Jorks Director sai:d the staff would , like to get rid of any umimproved alleys or stub streets. Mayor Nee asked if anyone alse would like to be heard oi� t'��is question. There was no � response. He asked if any member of the Council had any�questions. Mayor Nee questioned the matter of the crossing for access for Mr. Hayes. He asked if this question had been resolved. 7he Public Works Director said at this time, the agreement is only verbal. He said if the addition would be constructed in this area, there is the possibility that this would block off the access. He said htr. Hayes has two enirances at the present time and if the addition is constructed, it would block off one of these . entrances, the Longfellow access. Mayor Nee asked if this would be a lawful crossing. The Pvblic Works Director said it has been used for a rtumber of years. He�said what seems to be the alley in this area, or seems to be right of way is Machinirn Inc. . property. He indicated Machining, Inc. would be wiiling to sign an agreement for . continued use, but they would want to control the property. Mayor Nee said this consid- eration should not affect this question. The Public 4lorks Director agreed and said this would be two separate questions. He said the Council should oe aware of the other nroblem. ' Councilman Fitzpatrick said it seemed to him that one stipulation of the Plannin� Commission has not been satisfied. He said this would be the approvat or consent for the vacation PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF JUNE 9> 1975 PAGE 2 231 of the entire alley. He questioned if the Council should take action to vacate the alley or only that portion ebutting the P1achining, Inc. property. ' The Public Works Director explained that when the applicant had applied for the vacation of the alley, they first requested it only for their portionof the a11ey and the staff recommended that the entire alley be vacated. He s� d if Mr.�Schaul was not present, they could not determine if he had contacted the remainder of the property owners. Councilman Fitzpatrick asked if it would be possible to only take action on the Machining ' portion of the alley until the people of the area request tne entire alley be vacated. The Public Works Director indicated the City would like to have the entire alley vacated at this time if possible. Councilman Fitzpatrick said the Council was not aware that this stipulation has been complied with.. The Public Works Director agreed with this statement. Mr. Super addressed the Council and said the entire area had received notice of the vacation ofthe entire alley. Councilman Fitzpatrick said the consent of the property owners must be obtained. Mayor Nee asked how many houses are on both sides of the alley. He guessed this may involve six people. The Public Works Director referred to the map on Paqe 1-F of the agend� and said there are eight homes. He also pointed out the vacant lots on the block to b� Lots 41 and 42, and Lots 35 and 40. Ne said at the most this would be eight property owners. Mr. Super said three of the homes on the street are new and not sold at this time. Mayor Nee said he thought it would be fairly safe to go ahead with the vacation of the entire alley. The Public Works Director said the Council would have to close the Public Hearing at the present time and the Ordinance for first reading on the vacation of the alley would be brought back to the Coucnil at the next regular meeting. He said the staff could check into the stipulation concerning the approval of the adjoining property owner and furnish the Council with this information at the time of the first reading.

Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously and the Publ.ic Hearing on the vacation request by �lachining, Inc. closed at 7:43 P.M.

The Public Works Director said the Planning Commission recommended � approval of the vacatim of the street with two stipulations. He read them as follows: 1. The North Suburban Hospital District bear the cost of the comptetion of the curb ` alonq 5th Street N. E. and 2. The vacated roadway be improved with top soil and seeded to provide ground cover. He said the first stipulation was suggested so the property owner would nat bear the cost. 7he Public Works Director questioned if the Hospital District should have to.bear the entire cost and suggested that some of the cost be . taken care of by the City. Ne said this work could be done at the same time thai the parking lot is installed and this would reduce the costs. The Public Works Director also pointed out that there was also concern about the property owner.being assessed at a higher rate due ta the vacation of the street and i�crease area of his property. Mayor Nee said he agreed with ttie statement concerning the costs of the curbing.. The ; Public Works Director said the original agreement stated that this was to be accomplished �� ? on a cooperative basis. �, � He suggested an additional stipulation that the City maintain easement in this area. Councilman Breider questioned how much the City of Fridley was paying fo r the lease of the property. The Public Works Director said there•had been no exchange of money. He said the City of Fridley was to process the vacation of the street and would•pay no assessments against the area leased. Ne said there had.been no money exchanged. Councilman Breider asked the cost of the installation of the curbing. The Public Works Director said this would be 80 feet and would run from $300 to $400. Councilman Breider said the City was talking about spending $200 to $300 for an eignt year lease, Ne indicated he did not feel that this would be too bad a deal. '�� There was some discussion cancerning the addition of the vacated portion of property and that this would be added to the property owners parcel. The Public Works Director• � --, �1 � �� ' ' , 232 PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF JUNE 9, 1975 PAGE 3 said this would not increase the property to a11ow for two buildable lots. Ne said it would add about $25 to the taxes to be paid per year. Mayor Nee asked if the property owner was present at the meeting. The Public Works Director asked if Mr. Gabriel was present and there was no response. Councilman Breider said he favored the vacationof the street to confine the traffic to and from the Hospital to Osborne Road. He said there had a]ways been concern that there would be additional traffic on 5th Street and this would alleviate this concern. MOTION by Counciiman Breider to c7ose the Public Hearing. Seconded by Councilman ' Starwalt. Upona voice vote, all vot�ng aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously and the Public Hearing on the vacation of the street by the North Suburban Hospital District closed at 7:55 P.M. � LiC HEARING ON R�ZONING REQUEST ZOA #�75-02, BY WYMAN SMITH FOR FRIQLEY fROPlTIER CLUB The Public Works Director explained the area where the request had been made and said this � would bring the existing use of the property into compTiance with the zoning code. He explained the exist9ng use to be a tavern and at the present time this is not allowed in the C-1 zoning. . Mr: Mark Haggerty, Attorney for Mr. Povlitzki; addressed the'Council and explained that ' ' he had been before the Council before and had attended two meetings concerning this item at the Planning Commission. He said there had been a very detailed discussion at the f�.irst meeting of the Planning Corrmission and at the second meeting, the Planning . Corrnnission had recommended approval of the request for rezonino. Mr. Haggerty said , he would briefly list the reasons that this request should be granted and said the property has always been used as a liquor estabiishment. Ne recalled in 1949, it was an on and off-sale liquor store and after this, the property was rezoned to C-l. He further mentioend that the City of Fridley used this for'a liquor establishment until � 1957. He mentioned he felt the rezoning had been done by mistake because at the time the City was using the facility as a l�quor establishment. He"said now, 20 years later, this zoning is caus9nn- problems. Mr. Haggerty commented that Mr. Povlitzki had requested a liquor license and besides ' aiiowing for the present use to conform to the zoning codes, it would also allow the issuance of the liquor l�cense for this location.. He said this would allow Mr. Povlitzki to not take a loss on his investment and also the investme��t for the property. He said . this would allow for approval of the liquor license ai th�s location. Mr. Haggerty ' ' explained that Mr. Povlitzki was not able to attend the meeting, but he would answer any of the Counci7 questions. � The Public Works Director comnented that the Planning Commission had recommended approval � of �he rezoning with some stipulations. Mr. Sobiech read the stipulations that adequate parking be provided and the landscaping and .lighting plan be reviewed by the Building ' Standards Design Control Subcomnittee. ' 1; � �\ � . ' �� Councilman Starwalt said this consideration had no bearinq on whether or not the liquor license would be granted. Coucnilman Starwalt said he Vield the liquor as•a separate matter from the rezoning. Mr. Haggerty said yes, they were two separate requests. Councilman Starwalt asked what would happen to the piece of property to the east, would this split the zoning on a parcel. The Public Works Director said this property had been split when the area was platted and Mr. Povlitzki had only requested the rezoning on his parcel of property. Counciiman Starwalt said this action would not effect the rezoning on this parcel and the Public Works Director said not at this time. He said this would �have to be done separately by another property owner. Mayor Nee asked what the purpose would be of the C-1 zoning•. The Public Works Director said this would be for a iocal type business activit,y. Coun�ilwoman Kukowski asked what the vacant lot would be zoned and the Public Works Director said this is C-i also: Mayor Nee said this is Lots 17 and i9. Mayor Nee said this rezoning woUld make one corner of the b7ock C-2. The Public 1�lorks Director said yes. Counciiman Breider said there was a printing firm thinking about buying this corner, would this be allowable in this zoning. ,The Public Works Director said a small business would fit in C-1S. The City Manager asked if the parcel of property would meet the min�mum requirements for frontage and area. The Public Works Director said yes, the requirements for C-1 and C-2 are the �.ame. The City Manager a$ked if the property is 25,000 square feet and the Public Works Director said yes. PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF JUNE 9, 1975 PAGE 4 L33 Mayor Nee asked if anyone else had any questions or comments and there was no response from the audience. , Councilman Starwalt asked if the parking situatior� had been reviewed. The Public Works Director referred to the area in front of the building and said it would be stripped and the area in the back of the building would be black tepped and stripped to provide additional parking. He said according to the Planning Commission minutes, they are planning a seating capacity of 270 and this would require 90 stalls accarding to the City Code. He said they would be able to get up to 60 or 64 with the current pattern. He said they would have to acquire some additional parking area. Mr. Haggerty addressed the Council and asid he had talked to Mr. Povlitzki about this situation and he agreed to either acquire, lease ar rent additional property for parking and if this is not possible the seating capacity would be reduced. Mr. Haggerty said Mr. Povlitzki is willing to do anything to meet the s�andards and requirements of the City. Ne said the applicant had no objections to the requirement that off-street parking must be provided. Mayor Nee a�ked the Council to cansider what other types of uses vrould be allowed in this area if it were rezoned to C-2. MO7ION by Councilman Starwalt to close the Public He.,ring.

He explained the members of the Citizens Bikeway/Walkway Committee were present to discuss the plan. The City Manager said before the presentation for the Plan began, he would like to call the Council's attention to the number of communications received by the City concerning the SikewayJbJalkway Plan. He recommended that these communications be received into the testimony. ' Mr. Boardman explained that the staff had sent the Bikeway/Walkway Plan to approximately 40 service and civic organizations, other communities and County and State agencies and also to the Metro Authorities. He listed the organizations that had responded to the request to comment on the plan.

Seconded by Councilwoman Kukowski. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously. �. Mr. Boardman commented on the background of the plan by explaining the make up of �\ the citizen's committee which had been selected for active citizen participation in the plan from nine area neighborhoods in the City and 'ne pointed out these divisions on the map on the screen. He expiained that the staff worked very closely with the citizen's � corrmittee in the formulation of the plan. Mr. Boardman listed the members of the Bikeway/ Walkway Cornnittee and pointed out the areas that they served in the discussians on the plan. Mr. Boardman said one of the major goals of the plan is to es�tablish a high level of � pedestrian bike and walking safety. Fle said this would involve safety education and review of the present ordinances with modification and changes necessary to bring the ordinances to the standards neressary. He said another goal was establishing accessibility to all areas of theCity. He explained ' that in the City, there is a high level of traffic and barriers created by the n�ajor . - 1 • � .l 239 PUBLIC H[ARING MEETING OF JUNE 9, 1975 PAGE 5 . highways, etc. He said they.had also tried to establish cooperation from other governmental bodies and surrounding comnunities in proposing the accessibility. Another goal of the comnittee was to establish routes for recreational purposes to link the various parks in the City so anyone in the City could use any one of its parks in any location. He said they had discussed the short distance recreational uses along . with the long distant transportational uses. Environmental concerns were also a goal of the committee as pointed out by Mr. Boardman. He said they had tried to establish some flexibility in the system so if needed, there could be changes made. He mentioned that with continued development factors such as air and water pollution, noise and many other factors lend to the consideration of this proposal. Mr. Qoardman continued to point out that citizen awareness was essential in the entire planning process. He said the Committee felt it very important to find out how the individual neighborhoods felt about the plan. He said he thought this was accomplished and changes had been made where necessary to satisfy the communities involved. Mr. Qoardm�� continued to explain the use of the citizen survey in establishing facts and figures studied by the comnittee. He said the survey was taken from a 10� sampling of the City with results being obtained from 6% of the City. Hesaid 28 people_had hand delivered the survey forms and also picked them up upon completion. He pointed out the names of the 28 people appear2d in the plan information. Mr. Boardman said the survey indicated there is 62.5% ownership of bikes in the City of 32,532 which would mean thai there are close to 20,000 bikes in the City of Fridle;. He said the majority of the bikes are owned by persons ranging in age from six to fifteen years of age and the age group from 26 to 60 also showed a high percentage of ownership. He said thispointed out that many adults are getting out and using bikes. He said the survey pointed out that there are approximately 54,000 trips taken by bike in the City of Fridley per week with a total of 200,000 miles each week. Mr. Boardman explained the various methods of creation of the proposed bikeways io be paths, lanes and routes. He said the path system would be the most expensive type of system with the route consisting of inearly signing of a designated area. He explained the various types of systems by use of a i1lus�ration on the overhead screen. He further explained where the various ty�es of construct.ions and routes would be used according to the proposal. He said the implementation of theplan is prop�sed for a five state system t�lith the main reason for this being cost. He said certain stages of the plan would be more important at the present time. He said with the first two stages, it would be posible to create.access to all parts of the City. He said the first stage should be a pilot stage wh�ch would be used to monitor the use and obtain additional information for the remainder of the system. Ne said after this, if the pian does not warrant expa«si:oro, this would be noted and changes in the plan would be made. He said the pilot stage is not the least expensive in the plan, but it is the second least expensive. He explained that the first stage is concerned with the heavy used areas for bike traffic at major crossings. In some cases there would be a need to create areas of limited parking to implement the plans. He pointed out the various means in which this could be accomplished and said it may be done on a seasonable basis. Mr. Boardman ]isted the costs of thn various stages to be from 1974 construction figures as follows: State One -$39,000, Stage Two -$28,000, Stage Three -$56,000, Stage Four • $71,000 and Stage Five - $38,000. Mr. Boardman said the City had cor�nunicated with County Commissioner, Mr. Mike 0'6annon, who had said the County would help in any way possible on the County roads and provide � thest� pping for these roadways. Mr. Boardman continued to comment on the question of where the money would be obtained from. He mentioned that the Bikeway/Ldalkway Coirenittee has recommended that no funding ' be obt•ained directly from the assessment of property owners. He mentioned the committee. had recommended that the following methods of funding be considered: Land and Water Conservation funds, Federal Grants for Parks and recreation purposes, Community Development Block 6rants, HUD, new funding source for community improvement projects of which limited funds are available and Fridley is considered a priority II area, Federal . Aid Urban (Department of Transportation), �unding avai]ah]e for developing bikeways along FAU roadways and Fridleys systems is limited and may gain some funding in Stage � 5, Minnesota Department of Naturai Resources (Grants-in-Aid Program) which provides • funds for bicycle trail development, and Rice Creek Trail is along this system, • Minnesota State Aid Streets, annual fund for upgrading of classified State Aid Streets, � Revenue Sharing funds, a state allocation system for portions of industrual revenue collected by the State, County Sources, through participation in existing County road systems, and �.ocal �,ources. Mr. Qoardman explained the possible local sources to be . 235 PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF JUNE 9, 1975 PAGE 6 donations from Community Service Organizations, Bicycle related Fees, which would promote the enforecment of the bicycle license proceedures to license the 16,000 bicycles not licensed in the City. Mr. Boardman suggested that private donations may also be possible, but not likely. He mentioned this type of donation would be in the form of donations of easements and labar for the construction of the system. He said lasi but not least, he would like to mention that there may be a possibility of funding from the City Operating Budget through General fund appropriations. Mr. Boardman went on to explain tht there had also been a recommendation made for the establishment of a 4lalkway system in the City. He explained to comply withthe plan 5.25 miles of new sidewalks would have to be developed along with the existing side walks in the City. He explained the current policy of construction of the sidewalks City and said he had made the recommendation that the assessing policy on County and state Aid Highways along residential properties be changed, so the the assessment is against the property owner, but picked up by the State Aid Revolving Fund or City General funds. in the not Mr. Boardman called on Mr. Dennis Schneider; member of the Citizen Bikeway/Walkway Committee for _his comments. Mr. Schneider read the recommendations established by the Committee to the Council and audience as listed on the handout available at the meeting on Page 5. Mr. Boardman explained that there had been a number of public hearings on the committee level and many of the responses from the different neighborhoods had been ironed out and changed before coming to the City Council public•hearing. Mayor Nee asked if any of the members of the Council had any questions. Councilman 8reider said the bikeway plan included the signalization of 79th and East River Road. He asked Mr. Mike 0'Bannon, County Commissioner, if the City would put this in their budget, would the County support this improvement. Mr. 0'Bannon said he would be in favor of it. He said he knew the traffic on East River Road warrants this installation. Councilman Breider said this is a critical area in the Bikeway Plan as an access point. Mr. 0'Bannon said he felt this area warrants a stop signal with the ��partments, park and traffic. Mr. 0'Bannon said he would suppor�t this 100%. Councilman Starwalt referred to the mention :of the licensing of bikes. He questioned if the bikes with training wheels as well as the bikes that are from 10 to 15 speeds and cost hundre�s of dollars should be licensed for the same amount of license fee. Mr. Boardman said the licenses currently require the same license for anything on two wheels. Councilman Starwalt asked if this is a fair system. He asked if the smaller bikes should pay a lesser fee. Mr. Soardman said the fee is very low, only $2 and this is on a one time license. Councilman Starwalt said the money for the system would have to come from someplace. He mentioned the cost paid by auto users in taxes and questioned if this license rate was a fair one. Mr.'Boardman said in Denver, the li�cense fee� is $5 per year and the committee had discussed this possibility and determined that this would be too high and that the license should be a one time.expense. He again mentioned that with 16,000 not licensed in the City, there would be a great deal of revenue gained by the current rate. The City Manager said there is no question that the community needs an overall plan, this would set the goal and the City would keep work�ng toward this goal. He mentioned the implementation of theplan would take a great deal of money and the ADministration would try to obtain funding from other sources. He mentioned the license money could not be used, for this type of activity since it is not to be a revenue gathering activity. He said the fee would only cover the administrative costs. The City Manager outlined the Gity policy for the assessment of sidewalks on Caunty roads and said the street portionof the improvement in this case is not assessed to the property owners, on ly the sidewalks and curbing. He said the assessment in thes? areas would be only about one half of the assESSment an�ount of other residential areas. He ' said it didnot matter if the assessment would be called the sidewalk assessment or the streei assessment. He added, if the City changed this policy.at the present time, ' there would be problems with the people that had been assessed in this manner in the City. The City Manager said the plan was prepared through citizen participation an d the co�nittee and administration had done a lot of footwork• in the formulation and the data gathering: Mayor Nee asked s��hy the portionof the proposed bikeway jogged back and forth in the East River Road area. Mr. Boardman explained with the traffic on East River Road, if the bikeway were to be along East River Road it would have to be a path system and this would increase the cost of the system considerably. He said in the manner propose�, � the bikeway would be throurh the residential areas with tV�e crossing being done at the access areas in a route system. He.said the original idea is to provide access to all � parts of the City. Mayor Nee said this should be installed so the path �oes not jog � �. .. i � � � � � 236 PUBLIC HEARIN6 MEETING OF JUNE 9, 1975 PAGE 7 back and forth. Mr. Boardman said if this would be done, this �aould involve the installation of paths separate from the roadway. Mayor Nee asked if the City�had additional right of way on East River Road. Mr. Poardrnan said there �s additional right of way, but he was not sure how much wou]d be needed for any future expansion. Mayor Nee o,uestioned if someone was talking about expanding East River Road. Mr. Boardman said he did not know. He said the Committee�s concern was the cost of . maintaining this type of p1an. Mr. Alex Barna, 560 Nugo Street N. E., explained that there are people that he works with that bike to work on East River Road and he had been asked to join them and he would not. He said this would be taking his life in his hands because of the many blind spots. He said some people think that East River road is a freeway. He added, it is not possible to gain access to East River Road in many places. He said he cannot get on East River Road from Hugo, he must ga to 79th. h1r. Boardman repeated that the bike travel on East River Road would be dancerous and that �s why this would have to be a separate path. He said this is why the route was jogged back and forth in this area. Mr. Barna said he felt the children were still going to use the route and cross where they wish. He questioned why the paths couid not be put where the kfds travel. Mr. Boardman said the children should be educated to use the route. He said the.only recommendation he would have for East Riv.r koad is that the path be installed, if they use the area, there should be a path insta�1ed separate from the highway. Mr. Robert Pierce, 609 Bennet Drive N.E., asked why there had been no sidewalks proposed to Rice Creek School. He noted that there is access provided to all of the other ' schools in the City. Mr. Boardman explained that the only sidewalk neededin the area is the one aiready installed on Mississfppi Street, the others do not wa�°rant such � an insta]lation because of limited traffic. Mr. Pierce asked if the bikeways would be maintained in the winter months. Mr. Boardman said hopefully the streets wou7d be plowed from curb to curb and when there is no ice and snow, they would be operable. Mayor Nee asked if people would ride their bikes in the winter months. Mr. Boardman said this would be limited but there would be some use. Mr. Pierce asked how the City proposed to get the unlicensed bikes licensed. Mr. Boardman said the police are currently taggang those who commit violations on bikes. He said any adult will get a traffic vioiation and chiidren will receive a warning ticket from the juvenile court and the copy of this warning would be given to the parents. He also explained that the Police Department has been conducting an extensive educational program in the schools. Mr. Pierce said he had heard about this program and people seemed pleased. Mayor Nee asked if Mr. Slater in the area of Stevenson School had been taken care of. Mr. Boardman said he felt the committee had taken care of his concern. Playor Nee asked if Mr. Slater was present and there was no response. Mrs. Jan Seeger, 324 Ironton St., said she would like to reinforce what had been said by Mr. Barna. She said she wouid favor the construction of tYe path down East River Road. A representative of the Fridley League of Women Voters addressed the Council and said the League agreed with the overall concept of the plar, but the individual members were concerned about specific routes through the neighborhoods. She said this should be talked about within the iridividual neighborhoods. She mentioned the the League also supported funding from partial taxation or assessments for the neople of the City of Fridley. � Mr. Ken Sporre saidhe favored the bikeway plan and would iike to see a link in the system in to Coon Rapids and the North Park area. Mayor Nee said it was his impression that they were talking about adopting a overall plan, but that it may not be implemented in any single part for a number of years. Mr. 8oardman said the City had been working with the other communities in the areas to establish continuity in the overall plan. � Mayor Nee said all of the members of the City Council are concerned about the public � reaction to the plan such as how wi)] the no parking in front of people's homes be accepted and how would the people feel about the installation of sidewalk where there is none. He said he would like to find out if there is sufficient basis to make this�nore acceptable action on the part of the City Council. � ��' PUSLIC HEARING MEETING OF JUNE 9, 1975 PAGE 8 Mr. Pierce said this is why he had brought up the seasonal consideration in the use. tle thought the parking areas could be used in the winter months. Mr. Boardman exp1ained by State Law, there rrust be t��o lanes for bikeway traffic and this would create situations where only one side of the street may be used for parking. He said this may be done only seven months out of the year and it could also be limited to the hours between 8:00 A.M. ar,d 9:00 P.M. l�he City Manager said it may be of some help to tell the community what provisions have to be made and obtain their input. i�ir. Boardman said the various representatives on the corrmittee had talked to the area people. He listed the number of public hearings that had been held, the notificatiori given and the various groups and businesses that had been heard concerning the plan, He said hopefully, the neighborhoods had been advised and their input obtained. A resident addressed the Council and said he would like to see more information concerning easements that would have to be obtained. He mentioned he lived in the area of 7th Street south of Mississippi Street and he did not see where this plan k�ould be feasible for this area. The City P1anager said if there are any improvements or construction that affect the property or if the City would need additional easements, the people would have to be advised before this is dona. He said he thought this point was well taken concerning 7th Street. Mayor PJee askzd the resident ho� he would feel about no parking on the street The resident answei°ed that this would be acceptable if it was the limited type. Councilman Breider said if the pian is implemented, the easements, trees and all aspects would be worked out prior to puttinq anytning in. He said this should b� done within the public hearing process. He said he hoped that the Council would consider this type of policy not only as the legal process, but also if the funding is obtained from Federal and State funds. He said if a man is going to have a sidewalk in front of his home, he should be notified. The City Manager said the people would be r.otified, but he was not sure the reactior they would have. He said generally with this type of improvement, the reaction is negative. He recalled the adoption of fihe five year sidevralk plan and said Y.here were many people in opposition. He said .if the Council adopted the concept, the program ��ould be continued and those directly affected would be notified. Councilman Starwalt said he had foll�wed the actions of the committee ver�� closely and he said they had gone through a great.deal of ��:ork to come up with a{�lan.

He said this parcel has been split off of Lot 3, Registered Land Survey #3. He said the iotal area of the property is from 30,000 to 34,000 square feet. He explained that the other Lots D and E had been approved for such waivers in the hook up of sewer and water services. The Public Works Director explained the following�responses to the requests of the City on the matter: Metropolitan Waste Control Commission said since no system is available this would not be within their jurisdiction and up to the iocal discretion; Minnesota P�llution Control Agency, they have no rules and regulations pertaining to private sanitary searer and we71 systeins, i�is is up to the local community; Department of Natural Resouces, at the present time, they have no jurisdiction, but are in tihe process of preparing a Shoreline Management Act, and this property complies with those proposed regulations althought if it did not, they would have no jurisdiction for permits before the Shoreline Management Act �s adopted; Rice Creek Watershed Distr�ct, they have approved of the project after the review of the plans. The Public Works Director said he thought the roadway �ns.tallation should be taken • into account if this waiver is approved. He said there is an easement which was required of the property owner to the south. He explained that the property to the south is tax forfeit property and is included in the County Open Space Program. He said if this 4vaiver is granted, there wouid be no need for future services on Siverts Lane. Ne also exp]ained that the City h�ad received petitians from people in the area who indicated they would not split their prooerty. He said if this is approved, the City should prepare plans for the improvement of the street. He said the City has been helping with the maintenance of the street which is not the policy . of the City. He said if the maintenance is to continue, the improvement should be completed. Mr. Sobiech said the recommendation of the adininistration would be to approve the request with the stipulations listed on Page 5-A and 6-B of the agenda. The Pub]ic Works Director said the petitioner was present at the meeting to answer any questions. Mr. Ing Siverts, Siverts Lane, addressed the Council and mentioned there was a provision in the sale of the adjoining property that stipulated that the house �vould not be higher then the Siverts' windows. Mayor Nee asked if this would be enforceable by the City. Mr. Livingston, Calhoun Realty, said.the buyer of the property is perfectly aware of this stipulation and he had complied with it in preparation of the blue pr9nts. _ P1r. Siverts questioned if he would be assessed for this portion of the road improvement and the Public Works Director said yes. ' PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF JUNE 9, 1975 � PAGE 1� Z39 Mr. Sivert continued to explain the sale and splittinq of this property and said that he had dedicated the portion of the property for the utilities and roadway easement and he had been paying tax.es on this property for years. The City Manager corrunented that if this is a roadway easement, he would not have to pay taxes on the property. Mr. Sivert said he had been paying taxes on this portion cf property. The City Manager explained the maintenance and plowing policy of the City and said dirt roads or unimproved roads are generally not maintained by the City. He said in this case> since the utilitiFS had not been installed, the City had been maintaining the road. He said U:ith the waiver of the utilities installation, this is the last property to be developed and it would be possible to install the roadway. He mentioned this would net be a full. roadway with curbing etc, because there are only three people on the raad and this would make the assessments excessive. Mr. Sivert explained that the electric and gas lines are underground in this area. . He also explained that the water system for his property is located in the area where the road would be installed. The City Manager said the costs would be kept down�because only a limited number of people woul� 5e assessed. He said once the improvements are installed, there would be no reasun to deviate from the policy. Mayor Nee asked if the City had a petition from the property owners in the area and the Pu.blic Works Director said no. , Mr. Sivert suggested rather than develop the property in the ma.nner proposed, could it be picked up by the County in their open space program. The Pu�alic Works Director pointed out that the property to the east is tax forfiet and Mr. Sivert questioned the wording on the deeds of that property in that they are being held by the City of Fridley. MOTION by Councilman Starwalt to waive the requir�n��nt for sewer and water hook up as requested by Mr. Verlyn Vander Lught with the stioulations listed on Pages 6-A and 6-B of the agenda and with the additional stipulations that the eye level stipulation in the deed of the praperty be abserved in the construction of the home and that the property owner, Mr. UanderLught pay a norroa3 residential assessment for his share of the assessments for the construction of Siverts Lane or 75 feet.

Upon a voice vote, I the letter from Northern States Power Company dated May , ' all vot-ing aye, Chairman Harris read tihe letter as follows: "I received the �1140of � Fridley's notice of the preliminary heari�zg on the request of Machining, Inc., � Liberty Street N.E., to vacate the a11�y i.n Block 5, Spring Broolc Park Addition, l that lies between Ashton Avenue and the railroad tracks, to allow an addition that � will "oin two existing buildin�s. Northern States Power Company has no objection J to this vacation, provided we are granted a Permanent easement for the retention of our facilities or are reimbursed for rerouting them. Thank you for your consider-. '., � ation in this matter, John L. Ranck, Municipal Services Representati�ve, Nort': i D1V1SlOri.�� ' � �� r ' ' � ' I� ' 1. Mr. Boardman said that one of the stipulaiions of the Plats & Subdivisions- Streets & Utilities Subcon�mittee was that in orderfor this buildiny to be constructed, they would have to have written permission from the uti1ity companies who are presen�ly using this easement for their facilities. Ne said that the utility com- panies would be placing stipulations on� the heiqht of the building, and how fiar ;' the roof af the bui1ding a�ould have to be f,rom �the power lines, etc. � Mr. Narris asked what these power lines served? Mr. Schaul across the railroad tracks io John Nayes property at 136 Liberty said the power lines had just gone in last year, and he had given put the poles in. P�1r. Meissner asked Mr. Schaul if he had talked Power Company about the allowed height of the building, �tc. Mr. partner had been talking to them. Mr. Boardman said that if the utility easement was retained the petitioner gets written agreement from the utility companies on the encroachment> ihen the City couldn't see any problem wit11 vacation request. The City has no objection to the encroachment alley. said they Nient Street. Mr. Schaul them permission to to Northern States Schaul said his in this alley, and using this easement granting this an the vacated • Mr..Harris asked about Mr. Nayes having access through this property. He said there was an unsigned agre.ement in the agenda, which sta�ed that there was verbal agreement, but that h1r. Hayes would not sign it, on access through this property to the crossing at the railroad tracks. Mr. Boardman said that at present, John Hayes has access from his property to both Longfellow and Liberty Street, on Machining, Inc. property, and with the propased addition, he will only have access to Liberty. Street. The original unsigned agreement only gave him access to Liberty Street. Mr. Meissner asked if John Hayes knew that his access would be cut off to Longfellow? Mr. Schaul said he didn't think he knew this yet, but they had never had any trouble with Mr. Hayes. � Mr. Schaul said that about three years ago, he did seek le.gal advice, and that this advice was that he could shut the access off to John Hayes anytime, which he said he had no intention of doing. His only concern was that as Mr. Hayes had been Planning Commission Meeting - May 21, 1975 Page 4 �sing this access for a number of years, he might claim the property as his, and Machining, Inc. didr�'t want to give up any of their property, as tr�ey need every square foot that they have. Mr. Meissner said this easement for Mr. Hayes didn't en�er into the vacation request of the alley, but i� was something that would have to be considered. Mr. Harris said he thought this was something that would have to be resolved, because it was something that was sort of swept under the ruq by the City for many years. He thought P�achininq, Inc. shauld have some �ype of written agreement on the access to Liberty Street. Mr. Schaul said he was not under obligation to provide this access. Mr. Meissner said he may have a problem with adverse possession, if som� sot~t of ag►�.eement ��Jasn`t worked out. P�1r. Schaul said this what they worried • about. Mr. Hai°ris said the Mr. Schaul said that ��achining, Inc. got along fine with Mr. Hayes, but the next owner might wonder what Mr. Hayes was doing driving on this property. ' Mr. Boardman said that although ihis vacation request has nothing to d�� with the easement for M; Hayes, indirectly it does, because in granting this vacation to allow the construction of the addition, it wi11 block Mr. Hayes access to Long.fellow. He said the verbal agreement never covered an access to Longfellow, only to Liberty, but Mr. Hayes has been using both accesses. � �� Mr. Harris said an agreement should be drawn up, and if Mr. Hayes won't sign it, as he refused to sign the first agreement, there wasn't anything that could`change that, but he thought the effort should be made. Mr. Schaul said he thought Mr. Hayes would be fighting for another access, because he had seen him sitting at the tracks for an hour waiting for the train io move. Mr. Harris said that Mr. Hayes has his junk yard spread a11 over, and a 1ot , of it was on other people's property and in the street right of way. Mr. Boardman said that Steve Olson, the Environmental Officer .for the City, had been working with Mr. Hayes, and he has been pulling a lot of the junk back onto his own property. Mr. Meissner said that Machining, Inc. could give Mr. Hayes permission to use this�access unilaterally, but retain a11 rights for themselves, in an agreement. Mr. Meissner said that another question he had on this vacation involved a lot of people in this block, and without their written consent, he wou7dn't be in favor of vacating any more than just �he alley that was owned by the pet�tioner. Mr. Schaul said that was all he had requested. Mr. Meissner said he knew it was �he practice of the City to vacate the entire alley, but he would still want written consent from the rest of the block, even though-they had been notified of this request. Mr. Schaul said they only needed to vacaie the a11ey between Lots 10-17, and Lots 32-37, for the construction of their addition. Mr. Harris said that before he could go along with vacating the entire alley,. he would like to see some signatures of the affected praperty owners, that they were in agreement to the vacation. � Mr. Boardman asked what the Planning Commission would do..if a11 the signatures I' of the other property owners weren't obtained. Mr. Harris said then we would just vacate that portion of the alley that the petitioner requested. Mr. Boardman said that the administration felt it would be better ta vacate the entire alley from 1 Ashton Avenue to the railroad tracks, and that all those property owners had been notified of this request and had been asked to attend �this meeting. � / � Plann�ing C�nunission Meetinq - May 21, 1975 Page 5 '� 1 D Mr. f�arris said he agreed that i:he entire alley should be vacated, but he sti11 ' wouldn`t vote to vacate the alley without signatures of property owners in this block. Mr. Qoardman said tha�; Tri-Co Quilders had called the.office and said they had na objection to this vaca�ion. They own same property on this block. � . � � Mr. Meissner said tha� as a member of the Plats & Subs. Subcommittee, it had always been their policy ta vacate as many stub streets and undeveloped alleys as they could to get this property back on the tax rolls, not that these vacations added that much to trie 1;ax rolls, bui there tvas really no reason for the City to keep this property either.� Ne said that when something was vacated, he still liked to have the property oa�ners present to say that they will accept the property. Ne continued that 99 times out of 100, no one did object, but he wou1d still like to know that the proper.ty owners agreed to the vacation. , MDTION by Meissner, seconded by Drigans, that the Planning Commission recorrmtend to Counczl approval of the request �or a vacation, SAV #75-03, by h?achining, Inc., to vacate the a.Z1ey in Block 5, Spring Brook Park Addition, that lies between Ashtori �lvenve and the r_.:i?road tracks, to allow the construction of an addition that wi11 ' join two existing buildings at 140 Liberty 5treet N.E., with the following stipu- Zations: , 1. Retain the Z2 foot utility easement in the vacated �1.�ey• i , ' 2. City a11ow the encroacl�ment of the build.zng into the easement. 3. Petitioner get written permission from the utilit� companies, and follow their stipulations for this encroacrunent. 4. That consent be o�tained in some farm, from al1 the other affected property owners along this a11ey, or failin g that, that the a1.Zey just be vacated between Lots 10-17 and 32-38, B1ock 5, Spring Broolt Park Addition, which are owned by the petitioner. ' Mr. Harris asked if the agreement that Mr. Schaul should work out � �� with P�r. Hayes on an access should be a stipulation? Mr. Meissner said he didn't want to tie:ihis in with the vacation request. He said that Mr. Schaul did not intend to shut r�r. Hayes off froin an access, but he didn't want to give any of his � property a��ray either. Mr. Narris said that even if this was not going to be a stipulation of the vacation, he thought this a_greement was something Mr. Schaul should pursue. ' , ' �i ' UPON A VOICE VOTE, a11 voting aye', the zrrotion carried unanimously. Mr. fiarris said he thought that it should be brought to the Council's attention that there were platted streets and alleys across the railroad tracks. This was an ald plat, and none of the streets and alleys were in. He said this was a problem area in Fridley, and a solution of some type should be sought. 3. DISCUSSION ON 6IKEl�fAY PROPOSA� � Mr. Boardman said he would give the Planning Commission a little history on the bikeway proposal. E�e said that when we were working on the Parks and Recreation Comprehensive Plan, we had suggested that a bikeway system be developed for the City '- of Fridley. In late August, ,the City Council wanted to look at that a little further, _ so they set up a Citizen Qikeway Committee to make a study and prepare a report. He said he had been meeting with this,Gommittee ever since September, sometimes four � , lE March 21, 1961 TO t•71i0M IT PiAY CONC�P.N : This sha11 be a statement concerning a drive-way, right-of-way for Mr . John Iiayes on i•1r . Bernard R. Julkawski's land . Borh parties sha. i. si�;n this docwnent acceptin? the fact that Mr. Jol�n Hayes shal.l have a minimum of 2� feet along the northeast bard.er of PSr. Jullcowslci's land for access to �he present crossir.g over the railro?d tracics kThich lead to the property on the east side of the tracl:s. In order to do this, 2�1r. Bernard R. Julkowski sha11 move his proposed buildi�ig another 1.0 �eet south, �al:ing a total af 45 feet set-back and 2 feet west, leaving a one foat side-yard on the west side of Iiis prcperty. This sha11 leave appro�>inately 24 feet bet�:een said building and the northeast lot border. This right-of-�vay sha11 be in effect until such time as Liberty Street shall be con�inued straight acr_oss the railroad tracks wh.icl� would then give I�1r: Hayes a.ccess directly off his property onto Liberty Street. AL- that time, the right-of-way in question on rsr. Julkowslci`s property sha11 cease to exist.

Gal�riel asl:ed if tf�ere would ever be a cul-de-sac ther�. Mr. Clark said that one of the siipulai;ions ��Jhen the Hospital Board wanted ta put in the i��edical building ti��as that 76t1� Ave«ue i�ever be used ior an access to this p��operty, so the hospital wouldn't be putting a road in. h1r. Clark said the liospital Qoard has no plans fcr this property no��v. They di� make t.he statc�r�ent thai: the medical fiield w�s changing so i�ast, they didi�'t •kn�w what ti�eir needs would be in Lhe fut��re. Mr. G�briel asked i.h��t if ti�e Hospital (�oard put a parking lo� in �:his area, how close �voulc( it coi�;e to f�is ��ro��erty? P�1r. Cla�r°k said i:►�ey had to be 100 feet away from 5t1� Street. This was as close as �hey co�ld com� with the stipulatic�ns ,,.,.., . :,�r� ' �J , ' � 1'1anr,in Com�nission Mcctin -�ril 23�, 1975 � � Page 15 that w��re put on.the S�_]ecial Use Permit for the medical building. They would have i;a stay 20 fect fr•o�n the soui;h 1 ine of 7Gth /.lvenue and 150 fee� east of �;he east line of 5th Strect. Mr. Clark sa�id that if the Ifospital t3oard did decidc to make this area into a ��arking lot, they could go o►� the north side of 76th Avenue also. Mr. Cabriel �aid the 150 foot res(:ricti�n could still bring the parking lot r�ight up �;o f�is properiy linc. Mr. Gabrie1.asked ivhat choice he h�d in accepiing this 50 feet. P�r. Clark sa.id the 50 fc�et �vould be ��1r. Gabriel's to control. He said th� Flospital Qoard may be interesteci in buyir�g it, or you cou1d deed it to ti�cm if you so desired. I�Ir. Gabriel sa�id he couldn't understand �•�hy this property should com� to him. f�lr. Clark said �Lf�i� vras because the property was originally dedicated from Osborne hlanor ?_nd Addi.tion, so the property had to go bacl: to i:hat plat. 2C ��1r. Drigans asl;ed P��i°. Clark if you didn't have io have an agreement from all ' adjacent property oti-dners before you could vacate a stree�t? Mr. Clark said this was not a coc�e rCqUll�einenL, but �in praci,ice ��de ��rould like to have �greem�nt. i�;r. D�°igans said that i t seems tl�at in this instan�� that thcre a�dere L�NO parties invoJved, ' and one �,�ants i.he vacation and �:f�e other docsn't. f�fr. Clark said that ��tas the purpose of the Public Heariny before the Ci�ty Council so tha�; everyone who vras affected by a vacation tequest could b� heard. � � Mr. Gabriel said his ma.in concern now ��Jas the additior�a1 taxes and that this street �•�as undeveloped and had a loi; oi blc��m do��,m �;rees on it. He said there hadn't beer► a clea�� up of this 4�roperty fo�� qui�;e a ti�rh�ile. Mr. I�arris asked l��r. Gabriel ' if he useci ar�y rart of 76th Avenue for,access to his properi�y. Mr. Gabriel said his house fa.ced ?6th Avenue but his garage faced �th Street sa he had access from 5th Street. Fie said he vrould be in ��avor bf having this area cleaned up and soclGed. • Mr. I-{a�°t�is asked t�1r. C1arF: if there was any reason l��hy �:he City was maintaining the se4ver and Gaa�;er service on 7Gth Avcnue. 1�9r. Glark said it did service the I�ospital and the {11C'.CI1Cc� oi�fice building. Pir. Harris said tha� as long as they ��ere in use, they i�aul d have to retai n an easemcnt for th�i s u �i 1 i ti es . Mr. P��eissner said the�� had a 1ot of these same questions on�the Plats & Subdivisions Streets -& Uti 1 i ti es Subcomrni ttee 4�rher�e they had vacated qui te a fe�-r streets . He said that gei�erally taa:es, per se, ��ere nat radically affec�;ed, because as Mr. Clark stated, rnos�; of the value for the property �vas placed on t{�e si;ructure. He said any street imprave�,�ents or storin sevae�� assessi��ents tf�at are based on froi�t �oo�;aye of the property wus i-df�ere the impact of highei� taxes 1•�ould came in. i-le said that �1r. Gab��iel would have to di scuss tf7i s 4•Ji th tf�e C�i ty llssessor. He .sai d the land �voul d not be fixed up or improved in any ��ay by ti�e City when it was handed back to tt�e properi:y ot�ener. t�lhen tfle land avas given back after tl�e street G�as vacated, it then becomes the property o��ners 1 and �:o cl ean up and devel op, or ��rhatever they desi re to do. As for� �:hc� poteiitial curb across 76�h Avenue, the Planning Commission could stipulate that the City pic{: up this cost, if they so desire. I-Ie said Mr. Gabriel's option was to spl i t off ti�at 50 feet and sel 1 i t �:o the I�lo�pi tal Di stri ct, or deed i t to �I�em, i f tha�t was thc� way to get rid of it. h1r. Clark said he didn't think he tvould have to get a lot split. He though� if Mr. Gabriel jus�; called �:he Nospita7 [3oard and discussed this with John Haines after he had made up his mind what he wanted to do with th� Gacated strect, and the liospital Qoard might be interested in acceptinc� this as part of their property. Mr. Clark said thc comment made by Mr. f�1eissner thai; the City might be t,tilling l;o pick up th^ cost for- extendinc� the curbin� on 5�;h Street, he didn't kno�� if �;he City would want to absorb this cost. He said the fiosp�it?1 �oard was in the process of puttir�g in a new parking lot and curbs, and they might be willing i:o �dd this curb to tl�eir construction in considera�;ion of the vacation request. �. . . _�`�" ' ' � 1��rlinq Commission Mectinc� - A�ril ?_3_, 1975� Pac�e 1G_ � 2 D Mr. Harris asked Mr. Gabriel if he was in favor of the vacation or opposed to ii;.

If any one was ��ondering G�rhy thir business ��as already there, it v�as because ifi was there before the zoning ordinance 4�ras adopied by the Cit;y of Fridley, therefore, it was a legal nor-conforming use. It can remain so as long as it �flas not expanded in size,and runs continuous as the sa►}�e use. Mr. Clark said tha� in order to clarify this, he ti�rould read some of the uses permitted in a C-1 and C-1� District and a C-2, C-2S Qistrict. Ne said first he ��ould list what could be in a C-1 and C-1S District ti��hich are local business a•reas. It allo��vs such things as: 1) Reta�il stores and shops and srnall service Uusinesses sucli as: ar-� shops, professional studios, clothing, drug, grocery, frui �, meai, vetetable, confectianary, hardt��are, sportir�g goads, stationery, music, vdriety and natioi� stores, householcf app1iances, fixtur,e and furt�istiing stores and repair shops in connection there;-�ith; stores and shops for barbers, beauticians, cabinet makers, electricians, jewelers, ��atchmakers, locksmiths, pain�ers, plumbers, shoemaE:er.s, tailors, dressmakers, clothes pressers, job printers, blueprinters, photographers. 2) Bakeries, cafess coni�ectioneries, and ice cream a��d sofi: dr�i nk, shops , i ncl udi ng t}�e preparati on of food products- for rc �ai l sal e��r�o�i� their sites anly. 3) Liquor stores seii�ng packaged goods. 4} Radio and television offices and studios, excluding radio or television transmission to�ti�ers. 5) Theaters, lodr,es and assernbly faci1ities having a seai:ing capacity of less than 300 perso�s, � but not including �utdoor �;heaters. 6) Offices, incluciing business and professianal. 7) Sale of farm and garden products. 8) O�her retail stores and shops, offices and small businesses catering to neighborhood patronage, and sirnilar in character to those enuinerated above. Mr. Clark said these �dere the permitted uses in a C-1 and G-iS District. He said �he pern2�tted uses in a C-2 and C-2S District (��reral business and shoppinq areas) were business establishments that ��rere retail or service establish- ments i�hich cfeal directly witf� the customer for �-rhom the goods or services are furnished and they were: Crug stores, Hardware s�:ores, Department stores, Qakeries, Qars, taverns, Household equ�ipment repair shops, rlorist shops, Commercial recreation, Restaurants, excluding "drive-3ns, Hote.ls, rnotels, Theaters, ladges, assembly halls, auditoriums, Viospitals, clinics, nursing homes, convalescent homes, hon�es for the elderly, Offices, including business and professional, Vocational trade schools, Laboratories, medical, dent�l and optical, and harmless and inoffensive laboratories �1�ccessory �;o permitted uses, in the same building, and other retail or wholesale sales or servicc uses which are simila� in character i;o those enumerated above, ��i11 not be danqcrous or otherwise detrimental to persons residing or ��►orking i!� th� Vicinity tl�ereof, or �o tV�e public welfare, and will not imPair the use, enjoyme�t � � � 3� Fl anni n� Commi ss i or� _Meet__i_nc� _ Apri 1 9, 1975 Page 4 or value of any properi.y, but nat includinc� any uses excluded'hereinafter. Mr. Clar�c said that goi�g b�ick to the C--1 and� C-1S District, the uses excluded are: a) Commercial recreation uses such as amusement parks, bowling a1leys, 5illiard and pool halls, dance halls ar�d skating rinks. b) Taverns, beer gardens or bars serving any alcohoiic beverages on tt�e premises. c) Mortuaries. d) Used car lots. He sa�id uses excluded in C-1, C-1S a.nd C-2 and C-ZS were any use permitted in M-1 a�id M-2 Districts and any use excluded from M-i or M-2 Disiricts. h1r. Clark said that if the property were rezoned to C-2 it would be a use conforming to the uses permitted section of the City Cod�. Mr. Cla►�k �assed out some copies of the history of the site �al<en from legal records of the City. He said the long legal sheets werecopies taken from records of Council rninui:es of the year 1957. He said he didn`t ti�ini: they had to be read, it was just to indicate that ��hat was taken from the records was officially before �the Council. The minutes are from February 2B, 1957, and they sho�•� that the Ci ty Ccunci � authori zec! the Ci ty ��i�nager ta tei�:��i nate the lease agreement w ch Bob Carlson, th� olvne�� of i;he buildinq at 7365 Central Avenue ��.E. for an on-sale operation. At that same meet;ing, the Council authorized the City ffanager to enter into an�agree- ment wi th (�ir. r-?acKensi e to rent Ci ty equi pment at the 1 i quor di spensary at 7365 Central l�ven�!e N. E. The equi pment i nvol ved vdas som� on-sal e bar equi pment. t�t the same meeti�ig the Council approved �°'rc�nses for cigarette, tavern operation, non- intoxicating malt liquor and cafe operation �;o Mr. Cliff L. MacKenzie. If you are ti�onderi ng ��fhy thi s 4vas bei ng read i nto the mi nutes , i t was because the Ci ty i eased a portion of the buildir�g, prior to the Council meeting of February 195?, for both an on-sa1e and off-sale liquor operation. As of that date, or shorly afterward, it became a pr�ivate enterpr�ise, as far a� the dispensing of beer, and perhaps set-ups, altf�ough tl�ie records da not show that they ht�d sLt-ups. The City cont�inued to keep the off-sale operation until February 15, 1964. As far as what was E:not�rn today as� the Fridley Frontier Club; from 1957 to 195�, Clifford MacKenzie hcld the beer 1icense Robert Haskv;tz held i�; in 1959 and G0. It was he�d by the Fridley American Legion in 196C and 1961. In 19G1 and 19G2, it changed hands t�vice, from Norman Alberice to Joseph ��1orri s. Hans Har�sen hel d tl�e �eer 1 i cense i n 1962 an�i 19�63 , and i n 1963 to 1965 th` 11 C�IIS� �ti�as hel d by Marl ene Pov1 i tzE:i , and has cont� nued under Povl i tzk i ownership to the present time. Mr. Clar4: said tf-�at as far as the parcel involved, the frontage along Central Avenue was 151 fi�eet and the frontaye along Onondaga was 257 feet maE:ing a total of 38,G75 square feet. Mr. Clark said �he zoning in the surrounding area shows that diagona�ly across thi street there 4vas an existing trailer park, d�irectly across the street there ��aas M-1 �oning which G�Jas occupied by a light manufacturing plant and ice ��anufactur�ing p�ant:. The corner of 73 1/2 and Central has a used aui;o parts store, and between 73rci a�id 73 1.I2 it 4�ras zoned cominercial and was presently occupied by a service staLion. Across the street frcm the service station on the south sicle of 13►°d tvas an i��dustrial svarehouse ec� some industrially zoned pro{�erty, M-1. The southeas�: quadr�.nt of the intersection of 73rd was occupied by Onan. The northeast �ari of the intersection, he �vould call vacant, although the remains of a basement are on this property, and belongs to the American Legion. Right between that and the Frontie�° Club �vas ar. existing heuse that was being occupied as a house. Across �the street from tl�e Frontier Ciub on Onondaga, there was so�i�e vacant co►��i��ercial pr�perty, and just rorth of that th�rc was a vacant lot, zoned C-1S. The north side of F�r�side H�as occu4�ied by 1 v�cant piano s�ore, zoned commercial, and J�or'th of �;hat there was R-1 property r�7 th si r�gl e fami l y dw�l l i ngs , that have becn bu�i l t i n the l as t ttti�o or three years.

To the east of �he subj�cl: property, there �vas a small sl iver af land t;hat �ill remain C-1. l�he balanc� of ih� �roper�:y was zoned R-1 and ��as occupied by sinyle fiamily homes as �ar as Stinson [ilvd. There are two or three apartment buildings on 73rd ac��oss fr�:�i Onan's, but �.he balance of this property was basically single family dwellings. He said there was commercial property along Central /�venue near Osborne Road. N� said the history of the zoning of the property that t�ras uncier discussion, and the zoning in the entire area, had remained basically the same since �:r�e year the zoniny ordinance was adopted which was January 195G. Mr. Clark put on �:he screen a plot plan of the property sha4ti�ing that the parking was in the front and r�ear of ti�e structure. Ne said ihis area tiNas .all b1acN:topped at the presen� time, but if -improvements were made to the structure, or the occupancy ��rithin �:he building, �•�e ��:�ould want some greei� area along ihe 151 feet along Central . Avenue anu the 257 7�eet al ong Or�ondaga, vri �;h par�:i ng to the rear of the bui ldi ng. ' Mr. Marl% Haggerty said hE thought Mr. Clark had given an excellent history of the properi;y in question. He thought the point that shou1d be most apparent ��las �tha�t �h-is particular area vras Zoned, and hadn't been changed, since 1956, and sub- ' sequeni to that, �hi s pai�t�i cu1 ar arna had been �sed by the Ci ty of Fri dl ey �.s an on and of�� sale li�uor establishment, �rhich ��,�as the old muricipal liquor store, so to speak. It t,�as continued as an off-sale liquor st�re by the City until 1964. �E��er ' since 1950, this particular piece of property has been used ior on sale and off sale at uarious�;imes, and has been continued as a beer garden or a 3.2 beer establishment, up to the present time. F{e said that as you are very much aware, we have been applying �ora liquorlicense since f�ovember of 197�. We have maae repeated applications ' to the Ci ty Coun�i 1 y and i n the �l atter part of Febf~��ur•y or the mi dd�l e of March, 4�ae were infori»ed for tr�e first time, ai this zoninc� problem. Our firm ��as una�flat�e of it, Mr. Povlitzk,i «as unatArare of it, ihe City Council was unaware of it, and obviausly ' the, Ci iy Po1 i ce Depar�,ment and �i:he Pl anni r�g Commi ss i on tMere ur;::;�:�,�are of i t. The poi nt he was tnaking �-�as that if there tuas a problem there, it ti�as c �ng a tremendous hardshi p on h�i s cl i ent. He sai d t�z �vas of the opi ni �n that �; ;?roperty had been � ' use� as a �iquor establishment for nearly 20 years, even if �. �.� a legal non- conform-ing use, and tivas specifically excluded f�rom C-1 zoninc zf Mr. Povlitzk�i ever ��ranted to sell -i;his property, the fact that this ��as in i.t,� G��rong zoning, would � reduce the val ue af the propert.y, and thi s ��aoul d be a I�ardsf�i p on hi s cl i�nt. He thought it �Nas absolu�ely imE�erat�ve that th�is property be rezoned. He said they had aiso made application to the �oa��d �f �lppeals, whether that ��ould make any differ�nce at this time. He said that what he 4vas requesting at this ii�ne was tf�at the rezaning , request be approved, s� �7r. Povl i tzh�i can go on wi th hi s requi renients , and conti n��e improv�i ng the premi ses , and conti nue {ii s a�pl i cati on for a 1 i c�uor 1 i cense. He vras sure t.Viat the petitioner vaould agree to ai�y requirements necessary to get this rezon- ' ing approved. He said th�t before he went any further, he would like to ask if there t�vas any one in �he auc�ience who objected to this property being rezoned. There ��as no response. k�e saici that everyone in �he area had been notified of this request, � and no one was pr�esei�t to pi�otest tnis zoninc� change. Ne s,aid 1;he unly thing tha�. was ret>i1y bei�ig changed were the record books. ' ' � ' Mr. Harris said the Planning Commission had received a letter f rom Chester L. Cole of 13II2 Onondaga Street and he would 1et Mr. Haggerty read the letter before the Planning Commission received it. Ir10TION by iindblad, secondecl by nrigans, that the letter from Chester L.

The letter was as follows: With regard to the April 9 . . .�,�-• � �� _ .Planninc� Commission Meetin — - l��ril 9, 1975 Pac�e 7 3E li' He said that v�hen f�r.

He said the anl�� chanoes that ��lould come from this rezoning would be that the building tvould be im�roved. lde are only rec�uest�ing tha�: the zoning confcrm to the use this buildiny has had fior I aver 20 ears. i Y Mr. Drigans said poo1 tables ��ould not be in violation of this zoning, only I� ' billiards and pool halls are excluded from this zoning. Mr. Haggerty said he ac7reed, but ��rf�at he 4•�as discussing ti•dere the technical interpretations that brouyht up d�ifificul- ti es for f��r. Povl i�tzki . He sai d he ��ras not �sayi ny the P�9r. Povl i tzks ;r�oul d have problems, or that legally he should have, i�ut this �Nas a possibility, and in order to II ' avoid this pr,ob1em, as well as future problems, }ie felt this area should be rezon�d. Mr. Dr�i gans ��i c� tha�L ti�rhat the Pl anning C nmi ssi on had to consi der vras i f i t was prudent community planning to locate a restaurant estab1isr�ment adjacei�t to a r°sidential area� an establishment i�hat could have a noon day luncheon that could feature lingerie shoti�s5 for instance, the probleiT� of �arking for a supper club type of establish�»ert in a residentill area. He said �;hat the case Mr. Haggerty had stated t��as that this business had alvJ��ys been there and that it had alarays been a�l �sh- 1 iquor establ i shmer��;. f�1r. Dri gans sai ci he fel t thi s had been a nei ghborf�ood esta ment as opposed to a more open restaurant estab1ishin�nt. This was the difference that he could see. r�r.Povlitzki said he had some of the ;est entertainment in the TG�.in City area, and had a$7,000 band for a nigi�t, and he didn`t think this could be considered a neighborhood establishnient. Mt°. Povl i �zk� sai d he bought thi s property as a bar, and i t t�ras a 1 i quor �estab1ishment bcfore, so who made the error. Fi� asi:e� ii' he made ihe error or did the C�i ty make the ert,or. ' Mr. Naggerty said V�e th�ught thFre was just unaw�ireness on�the subject of the proper �oning. He said that P�1r. Driqans had stated that this was bordering a residential area, and if you look at ti�e z�ning rnap, th� facts; if you ti,rant to get technical ahout it t,ras tf�ai; this prop�rty was completely surrounded by a cammercial and industrial area, except for tne property to the eas�:. H� said he knew that in other areas of Frid1ey there were restaura��t areas that border� residei�tial areas. He said a case in 4�oint wcu�d b� Mr. St,eak and the other food esi;ablishn�ents in that same area that bor�der on residential propertyo� He didn't think the change Mr. Drigans was envisioning was going ta be that m�ich of a change. As far as the number of people wi�o would be frequenting this�operation, P9r.Povlitzke has already mentioned that he wanted �:o have larger ta!�les, �and he ��anted to �ring in pool tables or other means of entertainment. This 4�ould reduce the n«mber of people who would be coming into this establishment. If the Planni��g Commission was worr�ed about the traffic �nd parking problem, he said the�� were wi1liny �o ne�otiate or attempt to urchase more property in the general vicinity. Ile said he apprecial;ed the cnncerns �he Planning Con�missio'r�� might have, but he r�idn't �think there should be sa much concern that it si�ould prevent; the�n from recommer�dir►g approval of this request for rexoni«g. Mr. Drigans said he had anot.her concern with this type of establishment being next to a residential area, and tl�at �vas the police proble��. He wondered what type of probl em we have wi th Lhi s �stabl i�1�ment, not th�i ��e di di�' �; have probl e�»s ��i th a l 1 such establisf�ments, �+nd he w�uld like to know i:he history of this o�eration. � , ' 1 ' , ' ' ' ' ' 1 ' ' ' ' ' ' L� , Page 8 "'�annin�Com��ission h1eet�ing - l�pr�l 9, 1975 � _____-- --�------- -- Mr. Naggerty said it was the same as any establishment of this type. Th�re were a nur,�ber of tin�es tt�at the �ol ice have had to be called in when some one was disorderly or had become intoxicated. He said I-�is client had been instructed that any time there was any problem that he should call tf�e p�lice. This was whai; he had done, and the pol�ce have come. He said that he had called the police as a sort of protective policing, in that they are called before a situation got out of control. He said he ti�oucli�: the y�olice had don� a fine job for the Frontier Club he felt tha� any such establishmei�t would have a record of call�ing the police, at least a few times. 3F arid Mr. Povlit;zkl said he felt that Sandee's was in a more residential area than the F►°ontier Club, and they have a liquor license. ' Mr. f�aggerty sai d that Mr. ['�vl i tzki wants to improve hi s establ i shment. He vJants to mal:e it more enjoyable for his patrons, in�provL the exterior, impro�ie the parking area, and f�1r. Clark has rnentioned that they ��rant a green area with lar,dscaping. He said they ��ranted �:o work with the City to irnprove the area. ; � Mr. Povlitzki said that in an establishment such as his tNhere you sell set-ups, ; you do not have much centrol. So�ne one can bi�y a bottle of beer and drink a qurirt � of liquor ��r�ith it, Gvhi�ch ��tas uncontroTlable. He said you ��ould have much more cont��ol when you sell �:he liq<<or. He said there vaas quite a diF�zrence in the clientele of a beer estaulishment and a liquor establishment. Mr. Langenfeld said that in the Council minutes of January 13, 1975, Mr.,Po��litzk�. was asked��,�hat he fe1 t the ai��ount of the investmant vdoul d be and Mr. Povl i tzice had answered that it v,�ould be about �50,000. He ��fas then asked i�f ��hEn this was done, would th�is cnd up to be a night club, and Mr. Foviitzki nad ans��rered yes, it ��rould be like the Shore��ood Lounge. Mr. Langenfeld said that in regard to that statem�nt, if P1r. Pavlitzke �,ras going to�have food, dancing, en�;ertainment, pool tables, etc., ii was hard to visualize that there would be thzt much area to }�ave all these things. He �vould lif:e to have C�1r. Haggerty give input on i;hat basis. Mr. Haggert�! sa.id he woul d a�k Vii s cl i et�t to el abara �� 7�ore on ��aha.t he 4�ras proposing< Mr. Povl i.tzki sai d he used Shor�t-voad Lou��ge as an example of t�here they have food, entertainment and liquor. He said he didn't meln he was going to have individual rooms like Shore�NOOd had. It could be all in one room. Darrel Clarl< sa�id that what he ihought i�r. Langenfeld was asking was ti�hat tyl» of imp��ovement they i'ntended to.make on the i,nterior of the �LI1�CiiIIC�. Ml�. Povl�tzki said there ��;ouldn't be too mar�y, most of it was in the contents. Mr. Clark said the City had received a floor plan showing the improvements ��fr. Povli�;zki Gvould ��rant to make. It showed that about 7,200 squar� feet of the '� building would be used for the Frontier Club. M��. Clar4% said a questio�� he wouid have ��ould Ue how much of the structure would be left ifi t��is f1oor plan was folla�ved. Mr. Povlil;zki said he thought it would be about 1,000 squar�e feet. P1r. Harris asked ��Ir. f�aggerty if he thought an error had been make in the zoning of this property in the iirst place. Mr. liaggerty said the zoning ordinance has changed over t'►�e years, and he didn't knou� how much they had changed since 1956. Mr. Clark had a copy of the original zoning ordinance o{= 1956 and said it was basically the same as the present zoning code, as far as whai ti,�as allowed in tr�e zaning districts. Mr. H�ggcrty said it seemed paradcxical that; thc City zoned this pro(�erty C-1 which exclt�des taverns and bars servin�� intoxicatiny 1iquors, and then used this property for �Lhat use themselve�. tie saici he would have thou�fit the Ci ty would have zored this C-2, but as Mr. Clark had pointcd out, this property hadr�'t been p1a±ted a'r, the time of the zoning, so it ��ould t�e easy to n�a�;e a mistake. He said he didn't kno�ra why this �•aas zoncd this way, and he roulan't maE:e an opinion on whei;her tf�is was a mistake. � � , ' l __I � � , , ' ' ' ' ' �� , ' ' ' Plannii� Comiilission �1ee�ir�� - 11�ri� �, 1975 Page 9 �� P�r.

Mr. Harris asked P�ir. Hagyerty ��hat additional burden this would put on the surrounding nei�i�borhooci if i:he Planning Commission recomme��ded that this rezoning request be approved. �1r. Ilagyer �y sai d ti�at from �hi s i nvesti gati on of the s i tua�;i on , that ti�ere 4-�ould not be thai: much of �an additional burden, if any. He asked Mr. Pov1itzki how many people he could accom;nodate now on an average Frid �Y neohle he1 Povl i tzk•i a�i�!-�ered about 4U0. Mr. I-la�gcrty asked P�ir. Povl i tzici how many p p coulcf accom��oda�e afier he had made his improvements. Mr. Povlitzke said that it woul d be abou � 270 peopl e. P1r. Hagqeri:y sai d tha�. ��hen we were tal ki ng about a reduction of peo�le, we �vere taking ahout a reduction of 1�0 people. He said the first tf�ing i-.his 4-,�ould do ��rould be to alleviate the traffic problem that P�r. Cole �had compl�ai necJ aUout. Th i s chanye �,roul d i ncl ude th� upgradi ng of tk�e exteri or of the building and allow �Lhei�� ta provide landscaning. This would upgrade the property and ��rould certair�ly not be a burden o,� the surroundina area; in fact, it wo��ld bc a big improvement. They ��dere also willinq to obtain adaitiorial property fcr Narking.

Mr. � Haggerty sai d there woul d be f=ood served at these t�bles. Mr. Dric�ans denied the liquor ment: h1r. Clark asked if �the petitioner was den�iecS the rezoninc�, and eventually . 1 i cer�se , coul d kz� 1 egal ly cor;ti nue to operate hi s present establ i sh- said he could as a legal non-conforming use� Mr. Clark sa�d he wou1c� take a dif�crent exa.rnple. .If tf�ere had be�� a servic� station here i;� 19��, and i t 1 ool:ed to the nlanrlers at that time 1 i ke that property should be zoned R-1, because it lnol<ed ?ike it wa.s going to be a single family district, even if the surrounding area tvas all vacant at the time, as a lot of Fridley was in 1956, . that service station cou�ci cor7t�inue t� o�erate as long as it rei�?ained a service station. It cau►d chanc�e ov�nership nun�erous tir��es and stil� remain a service st�tion. Mr. Drigans said tl�e Zoning Adm�n�strator had indicated, and he wanted to read this....."the intent of the zoning ordinance is to allo4a non-confQrmirg uses to cantinut� for a reas�riabie per�Fod o1" �time so as not to invol<e a hardshi� on the owner of an existing noCl-COIlfOI"lTlll�g use a.t the �ime of tfie zoning restriction was enacted. flo�veve�, it is aiso th� objective of zoning ordinances to eliminate non- conforming uses ��ithin a reasonable time. ".......Mr. Dri�ans asked P�1r. Clark if v�hat he ha� been saS�ir�c� was 1;hat there was no reaso��a.bl� time established? Wasi�'t 14 years or whatever it ��as, a re�zsanab�e time? Mr. Clark said he ��asn't the 'Loning Aciminis�;rator, but he could venture a c�uess as to Gvhy he stated those �;hings. If it were a service station in an island oi� an it-1 District, it; may jt�sL die for lack af business.

Mr. C1 ark said this seci:ion of the City he vrould presuine, had been loo{:ed at and studied, but i1: t�ras not one of the pr,oject areas, as such, like f=ridley Park and some other areas, , vrhere it 4�ras generally felt could be zoned �omet�dhat different in the Comprehensi�ve Plan. This area vlasn't designated ��or cha��ge at all. He could honestly say that the zon-ii�g • on this particular piece of proper�:y had been looked at all. , ' ' ' ' � ' Chairman lfarris asked Mr. Nagyerty if he !-rould like to sum up his reasons on why this �proper�;y should be rezoned. f�r. Haggeri;y said the primary reason was the lenyth o� time this property had been used as one of the uses that ��as excl:�ded from C-1 zoning, :,e invest�;�ent that h1��. Povl itzl:i had �ut into the premises, the misconception that t4�e City or Fridley, the Zo«it�� Adn�ir�istrator, the Police, and everyone has had as to �-al�at zoi�ing tr�is pawt�icular piece af property had. He didn't think i�ir. Povli �zk:� should be penalized at t1�is late da�te. H� also t�iouah�tvre should look back to the time v�1�en i;his par�icu�ar �iecE of property ;�as originally zoned in 195� v�hen the City of Fridley was operating an on and off sale liquor establisrment. He also i'elt that this request shouldn't be d�nied ��ahen nobody has made any complaints on this request at �this mee�;ing v�ith the exceptian of the le�tter from M1�. Cole, ar�d he thought that problem co��ld be alleviated, becau�e we ��ill reduce the number of pa-��ons that 4��e can R�andle at one time. If vde ge�l-. the rezoning and are able to yet a 1 iquar 1 ice«se, ��de are going io t�educ e the max�i�r�um nural�er� oi� patro��s i=rom 4�0 to 270. We �4ould upgrad� the interior, upgra�e �;f�e exterior, vae would upgrade the . landscaping, and if neecf be, we would obtain more prop�r�y for par4:ir�g, so as to alleviate t:t�at probl�m. Fle said he f�ad summarizeci quic!:ly, and there may be other reasons, bu� jus�: on L}lese reasons �:�oi��e i�e thouc�l��t they should be allo�ved to go ahead with their plans and the only ;4��ay that could �� ccon��p,lished was for thP Planning Commissios� �:o�recommend approval or the rezoring request. Mr. Langenfeld sa�d he ap��reciated the feelinc�s of'i:.he adjacent neighbors, also the feelings of Mr. Povli�xki, but he fe�lt a final decision should be made � o►� u}�dating tfie zoning. His personal op-inio,� vaas th�t this proper�y shauld to to C-2, ' ' ' ' , ' ' and rezaned �1r.

Mr. t�angenfeld saici that on the basis of Mr. Hagge��t��'s sta�ement, it would seem to hinz i:hat other than the actual physical changes and maybe the addition to the contents, the general nature of ihe bus�ness was not goiny to change from what; it 4vas already, and thereby it iust �ti�asn't c�oing to be differeni;, and as Mr. Naggerty said, the actual amount of people coming to this establishment would be less. 41hat it �vas ric�ht no�v, und ��r��at it �dil�l be, as �ar as the nature of the operatior�,other than perhaps the servirl� ef l�iquo��, tiviil be tttie sa��e, and ihis can continue to exist as it �� . . . . . ..

It has been detern�i ned by the Ci ty Attorney tha�t t��c f3ul ui c 4Jorl<s Di rector i s t{�e 7_oni ng /�dm�i ni strator; the��°efore, the request for a det°rmination ihat a non-conforming use exists "as a tavern, beer , garden or bar servic�n alcoholic beverages on tf�e premises; of= the referenced . property has bcen t°efe��red to me. After a substantial review of the City of �ridley Zoniiig Code and other related ' chapters of the City Cede, together ��rltii t�evie��r of {�ertinent state laws, the request on behalf of Mr. & h1rs. Povlitzk�i for a finding that they are enti�led to a liquor license on C-1 prop�rty through an existing non-conforming use is denied. 7he rea�sons , for denial are as follows: l. Thai: the manner af operation of a non-conforming use would be substantially changed by permitting the conversion of a 3.2. and set- up opc�ration to an operation having an ;�i�-sale liquor license. That �-ahile �oth , 3. 2 becr and ha�°d 1 i quor are cl ass i fi �d as al cofiol i c beverac�es , the forn�er i s classified as a noi�-intoxicating beverage and the latter as an i►Zt�xic�,�.ing U�veraqe, and tV7at both the municipalii:y and the legislature hav� madc substantial distinctions ' bettveen t.he sale of the two commodities. 2. That the requested application for an on-sale liquor license conteni��latcs an increase iiz the size of the non-conforming , .�� . _ � i .:- ' LJ , L.i ' Plannirlct Co�TUnission t�lceting_- A{�ril 9, 1975 Paqe 12 3� use. While iL is true that the exterior of the building �rou1d not k�e enlarged, it is like��ise t;rue that � larger porportian o�C the buildi��g �vould be used for the non- conforming use, and t:hat convcrsely, a smaller portion of the building would be used for conior�ning uses. 3. That 1.he c�rani;inc� oi an on�sa��.c� 1iq��or ��icense wou�d cause a perpetuation of a non-conformir�c� use. Ihe ir�teni; ef ihe zonir�g ordinance is to allow n�r-conforminq uses to continue for a reasonable period of �ime so as not �o invol:e a hards��ip on the o4�aner of an existing non-confor+»ing use at ti�c� time the zoning restriction vras enacted. Hawever, it is also the objective of zoning orciinances to eliminatc� non-conforrning uses i�aitnin a reasonable time. A granting of an on-sale license to this applicar�i: �-rould not be consistent Svith that objective. 4. T1�at granting of an on-sale license ��ould produce a greater burden on the neighborhood. The d�()�1Cdt1� in requesting the on-sale license indicated that one of the reasons for the rcquest G�ras �:f�at tvi th such a 1 i cense, he .��oul d be abl e to attrac�: more busi ness to the locati�n; If tklis is correct, it �-lould produce a grea�;er burden on the - neighborhood that is existing under the present non-conferming use. , As ft�rther requested by the meii�ot�andu+n the above �ecision wi11 be submitted �to tl�e 6oard of Appeals as provided b,y Sectioi� 205.U82 of the Fridley City Code. The matter ��i 11 be consi dered by �.he 6oard oi� �lppea 1 s ui; thei r regul ariy sc �eduled ' meeti ng oi ��pr�i 1 5, 1°75. I ti��ould like to emphasize that the zoning �roblem is not a part of an evasive � tactic to deny and de1ay an issuance of a liquor license. It is a real problem that exists and should be correctec��through procedures provided in the City Code." � � , Mr. Drigans said his point,vdas that although the Qoard of Appeals must consicler the decision by the ?oning Administrator, he cioes state�;i�at it is Izis opinion �hat to go from a 3.2 beer oper°�tion to a restauran�: typc. of operation �vas a substantia? increase in the operation. Mr. Povlitzke has 111Ct�eased the non-conforming use by degrees, �nd ihat was ��I�at the {�et�it�ioner 4�,as continuing to attempt to do. r1t�. Drigans said �;his l�usiness w�s start�d as a 3.2 beer establishment and na�d he plans to go to a full scale restaurai��; ty�e of op°rai:ions and there will be a substanLial difference in the aperat�ony a��d �fir. D��igans said there laid his dilemma. Mr. Hagg�rt.y said that he cou1� come back raith a lot of.counters on t�ese points, � that coul d go oi� i or a hal f}�our, 1 egal op�i n i or�s to l ega� deci si ons , but he 1:hought this would be brought up at the �oard of Appeals mee��irg of the 15th:,' R1r. Clark sa.id that by riyl�ts this �vas G�hen it shoulu tiave been broughL up. ' , ,- ' ' ' , Mr. fiaggerty said �hey recognized i;hat there ��as a zoning {�roblem, and he agreed with tlie Publ�c Works D�i��ector that �here was a problem. He said that what we were trying to say �vas that ��rl;�n this prope��ty was zoned 18 years ago, the C;ty had an on and aff sale 1iquor operation a�: this location. Since �1r. Povlitzl:�obtained this operati��n, he has developc�d it, he has investeci i»oney into it, granted that he has extended tt�e use of that pro��erty as an aliec�ed r�on-conforming use, but he has improved i t whi 1 e h� f;as been doi ng i �;. I t 4�dou1 d seen� to Mr. Haggerty that thi s ti��as a vcry late stage to all of a suilden say, liold it, you can't c�o arzy 1'ur�:her. He said that we can see �:hat P1r. Povl i tzki: was attcmpti ng i�� good fai th to improve the premi ses , and he tf�ouyh�t the best rc�ti�edy, as tf�e Public S�!orks Directar. mentioneci, was that it shoul d be corrected il�ro�.igl� ihe 4�rocedures provi ded i n the Ci ty Codc.

The Bi keway/l�dal kway Cammi ttee recommends : 1. %. reevaluatior of the traffic signal timing in order to allow more time far pedestria.n and bicYcic rnovement. This i.s especially important at intersections such as Iii gh�tray ;�47 arid �� i ssi ss i ppi Stree t, Nighway �`b5 and Ol d Central , Osborne and East River Road, et;:. � 2. A c�ose loak at the difficult pedestrian moven�ent at the intersection of Osborne and E�st Riv�r Road. The free righ�: movern�nt; off of East River Road and the mandaf;ory turning o� traffic off of Osborne, cause an �mpossible situatioi� far pedestrian traffic. 3.

For safety reasons, a full signalization should f�e ir,stalled. 4. R more aggre;sive er}¢orcement of the bicycl� ordina��c�s recommended in this plan. The Committee feels that a sys�tem is as safe as the people who use the system, and the enforcem�r�t of its requlations. 5. That autamohile parking be removed from Osb�rne Road, Old Central Avenue, Mississi- ppi Str��t at�d Rice Cr�ek Road from Old Centra1 Au�en��e to the residen�ial properties just west of Hig��P�ay t;'65.

In developing a comprchensi�Te bikeway/walkway system, it is impera�tive to consider public participation as the central element of the planning process. It is necessary � to actively Seek angoing community input through all stages of the planning process and where possible, encourage active participation in implernenting the plan. It is a fact that in mast communities, where bi)ceways have become a reality, active citizen gr_oups were responsible for facilitating its development as is the key element in focusing public support. On May 10, 1974, the Fridley City Council established 1 a nine member citizen committee for the purpose of accomplishing the following tasks: � � � � � � � � � I� ,r l. � To develop a camprehensive bikeway/wal}cway plan working in close cooperatior. with the City administration. To provide active citizen participation in the preparation of the plane 3.. To provide representation to each of 9 areas of the City representing 28 different planning neighborhoods. 4. To provide a channel of communication between the City Administration and the Fridley resident. The committee could also be a focal point for coordinating other bicycle related matters such as bicycle safety education, theft and vandalism, enforcement of reg�a..latian�, licensing, provisions for bicycle parking and a continuing review of related ordinances and routing. -7- "� � {'^—� ,r` ':.�i °�'; .� F ?q ��,s � K s`? j "°;� +�" 1 �I � � "� � T � `� `.# � � �� 6 r � I � C,i � � u ! � � 't � � �� 1 9 ��,�r �, � D � � � � � @ ` ��`^�� C�I ; �° '� _ � � f�� Q r�� `�� z� ` `a�'��, �:.�;� 1' �`, � � �:� � �.� �.� k�� :_� � �: � �ti� �.� �t�� __� � � � � �-q� m°% E 9 �"� � r x � � � "� ' ""w T'�1 k'�! t"."� �.w e"'y �cs.,;� . ��'� �� t r�:� � � � [ �� .� `�'�� ' � E i � � a:� € i >� � � ; � , �� ' l i �� r �; j � '�, � � ; i �' � �� i _�� '� �;�, , � E� ,;�;4 �''� � r9'�i �+� �f`�� , t ''�q l� e'0. f 9 ( � . t f x �� d j �. � � � � I� ��" r� �� E � �� i.� � ,I��. �lia�aj � �{� �f �� {�,a �� t �{3 ij 3 9 �,:� L,.� �..� �� :,'� �.i �, ta � � �,��tC:1 c..d :,� �� ::,� `t.�� .� � �..� �..,.,� C.� �� i� t,d 6„�� c.� ui� i.� � • , �� k - 1 � � � � � ``�� _- ,,: a, ;��x��:��€ ��a��x��.�; �\� .:�.�.

I � r I - Fridley anci the a�jac��nt communities, County of Anol<a, Metropolitan �ouncil and the I'I� State of MinnE�sof;a. If thP City is ta have a viable plan, we must relate aur system to metropo1it�n demards as well as community dem��nds and plan for a complete metropolita�� system. The Qike��aay Systc;n Plan is made u� of 15 interconnected trails joining all residential areas in tl�e City of F��idl�y to parks, schools and shopping and employment areas. (See Bike��ray propasal maE�). The Bikeway System Plan has also considered adjacent community systems an� f;he metropol�itan sys�em proposal. T�e "Q`�ke�r,�ay System Plan" tables (listed in the appendix) describe the routes, mileage, estimated cos�cs, traffic volumnes, speed limits and unusual situations associated Wltil the bikev!ay route development. Al1 of the proposed bike4�rays represent recommended corriuors for safe and canvenient bicycling. These biketi�rays, therel=ore, may be altered if thu physical conditions of the designated route dictate such a cha�ge. ° �Iv'�'t�'.I�JJ�Y SYSTEi�1 PLA�I l�ith the developmer�t of a biI<eway �1an, it is also necessary to consider certain related pedestrian movements� �'hese movements, in the most part, are access orien'ced and are made up of relatively short trips. Nonetheless, access for pedestt�ian movement is important t� the City's interrelationship and therefare should be considered. Sidewalks should be placed along those roadways.that hancile heavy traffic loads and that can be util ized to break down other ��ajoi� barrlers. Since n�ast af the pedestrian traffic is schoo1 age children, special cure should be taker� in providing a safe means of wa�king ta and from school alang heavily traueled n�otor vehicle streets or across other barriers. It is also recommended that the bike paths as designated on the bikeway proposal, should also make provisions for pedestrian movement. This provision would be geared more toward recreation walks or hikes and mainly of a linear nature to accamodate the bike��vays.

Phase 1: Initial r�ccess Phase - Pilot Route Phase 1, as the initial route to provide bicycle access to the City is recommcncied to have a Pilot P,oute designation. Phase 1 is geared to have consid4rab1e effects in breaking down some of the major barriers in the City in order to allc�+.v bicycle movement more safely. It is hopeful trrat this phase can be coordinated �,�ith the bicentennial celebration in July 1976. Phase 2: Final Access Phase Tfiis phase involves the COf11p7et�fOP1 0�� the access partion of the system. The completiar of �:I��is phase wi11 link up all of the residential ar�as to provide accESS ta schools, major recreation areas, shopping and service areas in the City. Phase 3: Init�a� Recreation Phase - This phase involves the canstruction of that po►�t�on of the bikea,�ay system that will encourage more bicycling for recreation purposes or leisure time activity. It involves partial develop- ment of a Rice Creek Trail and a loop system around fV1oore Lake. Phase 4: Secondary Recreation Phase . The completion of the Rice Creek Trail and the link to North Park vaould be completed in this phase. These recreation routes are part of th� P1etropolitan Recreation Open Space Development Plan.

This Ph�se would most likely be deve'o;�ed when the vacant property South of I-6�4 is develaped. The estimated cost of the City wide bike�Aray system cannot be cons�idered to be great, whe�� campared to the advan�tages of the system. First and probably the n�ost impartant advantage v�ould be the levei of safety that it would afford to tf�e bicyclist. It allovrs the bicycle to be used as a viable al�ernative transpartatiori mode for schocl, shopping, � ��orking, etc.5 thus sa��ing on ti�e sE�ort distan� � automobile trips. It �vo«ld provide an add�d recrea��ion ben�fit by encourag�ing a higher �otential park usage. The�added � health bene�fits provided by exerc�ise encouraged by this system is also a plus. Im- �J � �� proved circulation v��ill also ber�efit the social and cultural interaction within the community. One' thing that should be remeE7�Uered is tha� �icycle and pe�aestr�ian movement is and should be an impartaf�t consid��ratio�� n the circula�tion systeir for �the City of Fridley. The en�ire bike�ti�ay system involved 15 routes stretc{�ing approximately 32 miles. The total cnst of this syst�m is estimated to be b�tween �200,000 to $250,000 (see detailed � breakdo�rJn in appendix) with a two year maintenanc� cc�st o�f apprc�ximately �2Q,000. Ir r , ' �i , comparison, the City f�as been spending bet��leen .��00,000 and $600,000 dollars a year on motor vehicle or street relateci improvements. The pravison of an efficient circula- tion system is necessary.in the City. This provision must inclu�e bicycle and pedestrian movement as well as that for the automabile. The following is a cost breakdown by development phase for tl�e bikeway system: * Total (�pprox�) County Hwy. City Street Phase 1.

Land and ��later Conserva�tion - Federal grant for parks & recreation projects. 50% Federal 25% State 25% Local Community Develo�!men� B1ock Grarts-� NUD - New �undir�y source for community � improvement projects. There are a limited a7r�ount of funds available to � approx;iz�ately 180 units of governm�rt in the Twin Cities. Fridley is in ' a priority I7 ar�a for purposes of H�using Priority which also relates t� ' community c�rant fundinn. Federal �1ict U��ban (Depat~tme��t of Trans�or°taiian) Funding is available for � the purpose of develop�ng bikew�ys along FAJ rroadw�ys. Al�though the FP,U system in Fridley is limited, it could be possible to get funding for Stage � � 5 of the bi E:ew�y system ur+d�r tl�is program, Minnesota_De��ar°tment of �!af;ural Reso«rces -(Grants �in�Aid Program) - There are a limited amount of funds available for bicycle trail developn�ent. 65� funding could be available to those areas who have a trail on the State-wide trail system. 7he Fr�idley Rice Creek Trail is on this State System. Minnesota Stat� /�id Streets - This is an annual fund received by the State for the upgrading �f Glassified Si.ate Aic! streets. , -�+l �- � I , � Rever��_�� Stlarinc� Funds - StatE alloca�;ion system for portions o� indust��ial revenue col iect�ci by the St��ie. County Sa��rces - Fassibi� County part�icipation or� existing county road syster�. tocal Sources: Community Service O��ganizations: Comir,unity service organizations have always bee�1 strong supporters of pragrams in th�e City in both financing and th� donatian of time. 6icycle Related �ees: It is reco��7mended that a pr�sent ordinance on permanen�t 1 icenses for bicycles be enforced. Ther e are an estimai;,ed 16,000 un.licensed bicycles presen�;ly in the City. These fees and any new fees con�ing in could go tov�ard the d�velapment and mainienance of the b i kevray. � Private Donations: Although this isn`t likely, it cou1d be possible that land costs could be ininimal with granti��g of easement for bikeway purposes. Other for�ms would Ue dir�ct money donaiions or labor danations for the systein deve�o�ment, City O�eratinc� Budge�: The City Council �ould take direc� action to develop thu system by budgetit�a for tf�e bik�ways through Gereral Fund apprcpriatio�. -42- i� � . �I,! i W�,I_K4�Jl�Y SYST�M D�1�ELQP��P!i The devE��ia;�m�nt of the ��aal kwa.y syst�m sF,cul d c�rresF3ond fai rly .cl�ose _�� the devel opr�7ent ; tage�> �f the bi ke��ay pl an. f�o�,�Jevcr, �chi s i s fl exi bl e and can be fl��ctuated acco�clin; �;o the avai1ability of money, and is not a funct�onal part of the !ai E<�v�ray syste�r�. , The vJalk�;�ay system c�11s for appr•aximat�i�% 5.25 miles of ��evf sid��alks to f�e develnped i�� c�r�junct�on v,�itf� the existing side;��al(<s and the cambined bike��ay/ � � vaal k��ay ��a�th.

That poll. resulted in 24 members voting for the plan, 3 m�mbers voted no opinion and 1 member abstaining from vo�ing pending more information. Comments which memb�rs asked to have passed on to you had to da with their concern for th� cost af the system as we1Z as for the safety to be pro��ided to the riders. It was the members hopes that the path��vays could be as simple as practicable, thir_king in terms of the cost. Your plan for hava.r_g pro�scted pathways ;vas wel2 received. lhank you for th� opportunity ta present our input before your committee.

Fridley, t:inaesota 55432 Attention: , Subject: , Gentlemen; Jerrold Boa�.�nan Planni.ng Office Bike�aay/GFa].kway Systems Plan TelepF.or e: 6I2-421-4760 � A copy of your �ikeway/Walkway System Plan £or the City of Frzdley was delivered to our ofiice on May 2, 1975, which did not aZlow us adequate time to review the document and prepare a co:�nentary on our review in time for you,� �fay Sth. deadline that was requested. tiJe have, as o£ this date� attempted to revxew ' the doc�nent and trust that the comments that we raalce at this timz will still be usef ul to you in the further preparation and development af your Bikeway/ Glalkway Syste.*tt for the City af Fridley. � � � � � ' � i Ouz office concurs in the necessity for the development of a sys�em of trai,Is for not or_ly the City of Fridley bu� also the neighborzng cor�unities and ever�- tually the metropolitan area and a state-wide system. C7e expect that the interest in tY:e develogment of this system will increase as tir�z�: goes on, and we will be atter:zgtino to worlc wi�h each of the corrttaunities to provzc�e for utilization of portions of the CvLnty highway sysCem whare the Iocation of a bzke trail alono our highways is feasible frar.► the standpoint o� capacity and safetp. Wzth th�sa thoughts in mind,we would offer a few comments concerning the system that you have propos�d,as shown on the r�ap included in the report on page 33. The location of bike lanes alozg the existing County highway system within the City of Fridley, cae realize,provide some good throuph connections. In several instances they also provide the anly controlled crossinjs o� Trunk Highway+s 47 and 65, and also cross�.ngs of the Bur].ington Northern Railroad within the City of Fridley. �Tithin the past week we have been in on a�eeti.ng wzth the State �Iighway DepartmenL relative to the intersections of Osborn Road and . 2fississippi Street with Trunk Hibhway 47, so you are aware of the problerris and concerns that must be dealt with in designino and constructino these inter- sections to adequately han�Ie the veh3.cular traffic, arcd also to provide far the safe passage of bicycle �nd pedestrian traf£ic. �� , City o£ Fridley P�iay 27 , 197 5 Paoe 2 j1e are concerned that, as addztivnal cievelo;xnent occurs t��ithin the Czty of , Fridley and witnin the neighborina adjacen� cor�nunities, the traffic volurnes on s�reets such as Osborn Road, Mississippi Street and fl1d Central, iahich are vital parts of your proposed system, wzll increase to a point where faur lanes � of vehicular traffic �aill be require3 and there wi1Z be a limited area, if any, rer*iaining on the paved surface for a bicycle la:�e. With this in minct, we would suggest strongly that c�herever possible you laok for alternative routes for your bicycle paths or ianes off af the County highwaq system, so that as ths � traffic builds up this chanoe in system at a later date cai11 not be a problem for eith�r the City of Fridley or the County af Anoka, � lJ L� , � , II � , � � ' In reviewing the bike trail systems for naighboring communities, such as Caon Rapids, Colvmbia Heiohts and rlew Brighton which are attachect in Appendix C in the report, we note.that the City of Coon Rapids has Zaid out their primary s stem in a fashiori to�that of the Cit of Fridle y �y y y, namely that a gooci shaxe of their routes are along County roads. We expect that traf£ic on these rautes will also increase in the future and they will be faced with the same type of problems I have described previously. [�Te note witn interest that the cities of Columbia Hei�hts and New Brighton have, in some instances, located their bicycle routes alono County highways. The majority of their routes, however, are located alonj city s�reets away from the heavil.y traveled routes, thereby not creating problems £oz traffic on the heavily traveled roads, bu� also pra- vi.ding £or a safer bicycle path or lane on s�reets that have more residential tra£fic characteristics. In zeviewing the recar�mendations that were prepared by your Bilce��ray/[ialkway Cor�mittee, as listed on pages 5 and 6 of the report, c,re t�ould like to state that our traffic signal section is in the process of revi.ewinJ each ot the signalized interszc�ions alona th� County high�aay systera, as require@ by State and Federal hiahway regu�.ations. One of the speci.fic items baina reviewed in this inventory is an enur�erati4n of deficiencies that exist re�arding pedes*_ri.an trafFic facilities. iie would expect that this report wi7.1 be coriplet2d and re- viewed within the nex� few months so that sone of the iterns that you note in Iter,�s l. and 2 of your recor��ndations will have been stu�lied and a solution of an� deficiencies that are found cozll be addressed, As we have stated previously, we will work with you an the indication by striping of bike lanes along Che County highway system. j•Te expect that our Tra�fic Uepart- ment will be r:ieetino with you within the next raonth prior to tha start of any s�ripins along the County roads �•rithin the City of Fridley. We �7is?� to r;iake clear the fact that the znstalZation of the stripino to provide for bicyc.le lanes at this time does aot guarantee that the bike lane can be maintair.ed along �he County roads if.need for the full paved width to safely and ade- quately handle v�hicular traffic necessitat�s the stripino of the roarlw�y for four lanes of traf£ic at some future date. If you have any questions or comments concerning , cludea in this letter in response to your report, to sit doNn wi,tn you to review the report in more poi.nts that cae huve raised. � I � u Very tru p yours, ' ��.' � � r -t_.c.,t. � �,�� ` paul IC.

One ��ras, that they have to appear before Guilding Stanuar�s ��rhich was was scheduled for June 5th, and the other was, that th�y wo«ld have to appiy for, and get approv�l for, a lot split or a p1at.

He said that it �f�as in�erestirrg that the lar,d cost and building construction cost would be about tiie same as if they could have started c�perations at the first location. This was because it would have been costly to bring the old buildir►g up to the City req�.�arem�nts and the Datsun requi re��en��s. Mr. C1 arl: asked f�1r.

Mr. Clark said he had talked ta t�ir. 6enjamin befo��e this meeing, and if th�is came to the Planning Ca��nmissian on their meeting of June 25th, it would go to the Council on Ju1y 7th, and t1�is was close enough to t{1E1T" proposed startine� date.

Na•rris said �t ��tould cnange the setback requirements if this service road 4,�ent rigf�t next to the property. Mr. Schroer said he ca��ld leave a 20 foot str�p as a boulevard for this service road then. h1r. Cl�rk said he should give that 20 foot stt,ip to Win Stephens, as they would probably have to maintain it. Mr.Schroer said he would, if they changed the service drive.

The requested route would begin at the Senior Iiigh School and �vould proceed i�.est on 61st Avenue to 7th Street, thence North on 7th Street to A4ississippi Street, thence �'lest on A�tississippi Street to 5th Street, thence South on 5tli Street to 59th Avenue, thence East on 59th Avenue to 7th Street, thence horth on 7th Street to 6lst Avenue, tlience East on 61s-t Avenue returning to the school. The originally planned route (s.ame as last years) was to begin at the Senior �iigh School and would proceed {dest on 6Zst Avenue to 7th Street, thence North on 7th Street to P;Iississippi Street, thence iVest on �iississippi Street to 5th Street, thence ' South on 5th Street to 63xd Avenue. The obvious reasons for the change a.n.d extension of th� ' route is because of �he increasing num�ber of units which will be participating in the parade.
