(1 REGULAR COUNCIL ��{EETING OF fEaRU11RY 2, 1976 PAGE 2 The Public Works Director cxplained thai: this request by the Rnttlund Company is for a variance for a side yard reciuction from five feet to four feet, to allow the construction to continue on a house and garage at 1f51 Camelot Lane, N. E. He further stated Lhat it should bc noted that the censtruction at this point has stopped �vith the place�nent of the foundation in the narage. Ne sard that the garaye is the only portion involved in this request for a variance. This request came about when the ver�fication survey too{: place, as shown on page 1F in the agenda. The yarage was constructed too close to Lhe side yard. The Public lJorks Director said that hir. Roy Lund, represenl:ing the Rottlund Company is present to answer any questi�ns we ma,y have. Mayor Nee asked who owned the land to the east. Was it the developer. Mr. Lund explained that Tom [3rickner is the owner. P1ayor Nee asked if he was aware of the petition and Pir. Lund said �that he was. Councilman Starwalt commented Lhat he ��ras out to look at the property and noted that they had to pull a lot of ground out. He said that he could not see the f�undation, and that it looked as though it I�ad been filled over. He said he also noticed ther•e was a heavy matting, to prevent freezing, presumably on 1;he faundation. Mr. Lund explained that the verification survey is made after the basement is backfilled, that is the only way they can get an accurate taping. He�further explained that they took out approximately 6'-Z feet of dirt and filled i.t back and compacted it. He said a lot of excess dirt ��as left and there ��ere a lot of dirt piles and the property line to the east was not really clear. This is. the reason the mistake was made. Mayor Nee asked if the footings were going to be satisfactory in that area,`and Mr. Lund replied that they ;;ould. Mayor Nee as!:ed if there we�°e any further comments. He said the Board of Appeals recomnzends to grant tne variance. ..

'�.._ REGULAR P1[ETING OF FEQRUARY 2, 1976 PAGE 4 year. In talking to your staff tod�y, they asked us if we would present a little different type of nursery center and we agreed, but we were told we would also have to co;;�e in for the Srecial Use Permit for the nursery center again because oi' tt�e rezonirig i:hat occurred. Thei�efore, we will be applying for a new permit �•�hen the ne�a design is worked out i•ritfi the Planning Commission as to how it will sit on the propeety. Mayor Nee said he v�ould like to uiscuss how the company feels about the parking area being used for merchandising. Ne said his inclination is that o-le should have the City Assessor look at the land again. Generally speaking, P?r. Sieinman said, we �rill just have the t�-ro operations. The reason i�e v�ant to have somet:hing on the backside of the building is because it is rather drab, and it does not attract aryone. The Uui?dir.g originally ��as placed in the �tirong directicn. It shows the bac{:side of ihe buildinc� ti•ihere there is no activity at all. l�de feei a nice, ciean operation on this backside would add to the business and atcract more people to our operation. ble have no inten- tion of puttiny any other operations on the propei°ty. Councilman F1=,mernil; asked Nr. S1:E>inman if they feel they are putting a limitation on i;heir perkiny spaces. i�ir. Steinir�an said they were riot because i:he back is too far from the doors, and LI-�e custome�,s do not use this soace. Public parking is primarily on the east and north side of the buildiny. Some customers park on the west side, but a good share of ti-�e parking there is by eir.ployees. Councilman Fitzpatrick said that it was pointed out that as far as the req�aest by staff for some pei,manent iandscaping, etc., it was not their intent that this be the responsibility of thE neti•rly established business, but to have Holiday Village accepi: this responsibility. Mr. Steinman said he understood that, but this area is being leased to them. 41e have noi ;rorl:ed cut i:he details as yet, but the area they f;ave laid out for tneir ooeration ��ras to be iheir expense to upqrade that particular area, and make their display and 'oe responsiUle for everything within that area. He said he has not met �vith the Planning Cor.�mission or staff to see what can be worked out. P•1r. Qecker has met tivith the�n, and he could answer these questions. We will be responsible for everything that vre agree on. Mayor Nee asked �vhere the nursery store would be located and Dir. Steinman said it would be ir� the same general ai°ea. There is a possibility of moving it further to the south rather than right on the corner. This ��ill be presented when �ve come in fcr the Special Use Permit. Mr. Becker addressed P1ayor Nee and the Council and said, first of all, they are lookirg to Utl�7ZP_ the backside of the parking lot, not interferring with the parking facilities for the customers. The area is not presently being used for anything. We propose to have a sales office set up, skirted to look like i� is sitting in a mobile hoine park. There will be a maximum of ten units ready for sale and sho��r. 4fe i�ave had the operation moved to the west a�ittle bit, in an effort to cut cosis �ii haoking up to the se�•rer and 1-rater. We are closer to the connections anr�! 4J1�2 not require as r�iuch io hvok up the sewer° and wat�;r to the office. } _� l Mr. Decker then presented trro sketch�s i:o the founcil and st-aff, pointing out the loc��.tion of 1'he cffice and t:hai, it woi.ild loak like. He explained th�t the backside of the office wou?d epen up to a court yard, and has sliding glass doors. He also pointed out �ti�here t!ie parkin9 �;�ould he ac.�•oss tl:e front, apprAximately 150 feet ta the stree+�. Thcr�� i:o�.ild be sufficient custoi��er parking and addiCional � employee parking.

As far as the landscapiny is concerned, iii talking ��ii:h a nu�n�er �f people ahout tearing u� the blac{:topti!i�1g, I i-�ad both pro 4nd con re��ctions from a numb�r of stand- points. I viould like to use turf, I�e said, as 1 feel it ��+ill �•iear much better. The ai°ca is c�oin, to have a lot of people �ralking across it and regular grass will get ben� do�,rn. I have talked Lo pcople ahout astro turf and it could be laid out on the blac{;top and glued down, and rrould not sho�v the ��ear and tear. Illso, he centinued, �if ale t•rere io tear up the blacktop, there could h� drainage 'probler,is, as it PlOU�CI i;IlBll be a?o�� area. He said he int.ended i;o use redvrood chips around the border in the fl•ont of the office. The back would have a 20b,y 60 foot pi�ce of astro turf. Alsc in this area, there vrould be picnic tables and lawn chairs to look like the bacl: yard of a mobile home park. Light �NOUId be utilized as far as display and :or security at night. Counc�ila��e...i� I:uko��,�s{:i said tha* r,1r. Gec{:er st?ted he �vould be e�oving four to five units a month. At the Plam;ing Cem,!�ission mee+ing, she said she understood this t�ould not be a case of a high tin�n-over, and that a lot of their units would be set up in ir�obile hon�e par{:.s. She said she feels four or five units a month is a high ti�rn-over, especially ��,V�en she thinks of ho4v mam: pea�le go in and out of Nol�day Village ano hc�� r�eavy the traffic is �I1 highway 47. She said she �vas under tlie impression that they �•rould shotv the mobile homes and then tell the people they would take tl�em i:o ihe park ��:here a unit is stored and set up. Mr. Qecke��° explained that the average person does not have much luck in sellir�g mobile I�omes. They do not 4;now lioaa to set up the financing> e�c. This is the r��ajorit.y of c!,r sales. Ide have a listir�g of people living in mobile homes. 4J2 are going to t�y and sell people the units set: up in the mobi�e hor:�e parks, but . there �vill be se,re people �•.�hc �ti�� il l,�ant a��a.rticula�� unit. t�ioving �>��mits would he regulated vrith the City as fai° as routii;g and t�ime ef inev�ing, etc. There t�ou'd noi be r�iure than four ta five units a n;onth, an�l seme mobile home sales move as many as tv�enty a month. Council��oman Kukor:�ski said �hut �he �rajorit.y �f these places are on High�Nay 65, and noi; vahere there ��ou'd be a lot cf c�stomers goiny in and out as at Heliday Village. t�1r. �ecker said the.t as far as the traffic is concerned, no on� �eems to think it �4ou?d b� a problem. 1lie store doesn't utilize the area ��or customer parking. f=ive unii:s a month ��rould be a total ti;ne period uf 1=2 'iours a month. , Mr. Stc�inman asked I�r. Bec4:ei° if they �4�i11 have to take out a permit to move these hon;es each time t•dith the City of Fridley. h1r. Becker said that he be- lievec� they� v�ould have i:o go to the �tate.

Ne further stated 1:hat perhaps thei�- housekee�ing hasn't Leen thc best, but that other f�ousekcepiny in the City of Fridley in comparison has not been that good either. He r.:entioned that he talked with their neighbors around Holiday Village and gave them his name and tclephone number and said that if they had an,y complaints they shou',d call him personally, but h� has not received any calls. The City Maiiager e>:plaired that �•rhat he is saying is lookii�g at past history, a lot of promises f�ave been irade, and �;�e certainly are appreciative of that.

Qasfcally, he said, in January tne City Council approved a variar.ce request from the sign ordinance where th� netitione;°, thrcugh his attorney, requested roof.signs be pei�mit.ted in adc;ition to er.i�tirg free standirig signs. As noted in the ordinance it�e use o{ a roof sign �,�ill sub�titute a free standing sign in one section. tlnothc:• section state��. t��a� ane free standing sign be allotved for each building.

The staff inricated ��rhat the original approval had heen and the stipulations. The petitioner then voic�:d scme objeci:ion to the oricinal interpretation of the siyr� c��de.

Specifically, �nc�n you c�o through the siyn ordinance you do not find anytl7inc� ans�•rerin9 this question. You get into a situation where yuu have a non-conforming sign ��rhich ��ras allo�,�ed to be constructed for the restaurant . t3ecause ii was in existance before the code vaas adopted, it is allo;red to contimic. Then, vre are faced ��rith the question that if a netv tenn:lnt nioved into the sfiopping center, if the City took the position Clie fi°ee standing sign was in licu of any roof or arall signs, then the ne��,� busir�ess �•iould not be able to have a sign. He could not put up a free standing sign because the code says there can only be one free standing siyn per parcel per fi�ontage. It already has t��:o free standing signs so it Ytould be precluded from having a free standing sign. Then, if we further took the �osiiion they could not have any roof signs because the restaurant free standing sign is auihorized in lieu of a roof sign, a business moving in could not have �u�y siyns. F�10TIOi� bf Councilman Starv�alt to allo�v roof signs to be installed at the Shore- vlood Sho4:ping Center as per the City Ordinance.

Ne said he receives the impression that substantially it is firm, except in one or two areas of vagueness. The Public lJor{;s Director said that is true. The only area we could have a pro- blem is in setting up the cor�rletion dates and the actual recording of the plat. Perhaps in t��;o to thi�ee r�eeks we could have the final s�n�vey completed aild the f' 1 drlfting of it and then fiave it recoF'ded. The Puhlic lti�orks Director asked � � i .' � ina � I��r.

The Aub7ic I!or�ks Director explai�7eci ciiat at t��e preseni: time, Fridley does not have a di-ive�-;ay sno�r pio��;ing policy. We feel that it �is qu-ii:e er.!�ensive as t-�e would need additional mai�pc�,�er and additional en,uipment to get into i;t;ose con- fined areas or thc� drive�,��ays. The fact that ��,e uo havc: app�°oximately 6,000 single family r�esidents in the City, it would be ��uite costly, If �,�e r�ou7d pi�t that particular properLy on a low priority afier thc side�;;aiks and strcets are ploti•lnd, and th�n go back, �t ti-rould pt,o6ably have been tal:en care �f already.

Upon a voice vote, ai1 voting aye, t�� motion carried unan.imousZy. . Mr, Mark Treuen�els, 5248 Norizon Dr'ive h.E. said he would like to pre- '� sent a proposal for a Teen Center. The proposal was presented to Chairman Harris. , Mr. Treuenfels said that the resuli:s of a survey by the Fridley Youth Project Com�niitee indicated a desire for a te�n center by Fridley teenagers. This teen center wou1d serve as a ireeting pl�ce for youth where social con- tact would Q� possible. This would �e an a�ternative �o present facilities, ' s�applying recreation ai: a minimal cast. � we wi1l ask the Ciiy Council to grant the usa�e of �he unoccupied library ' space across from ti7e police station. If the space was ok�tained, we propose to stock �t ��r�ith the iollowing facilities: 2 coln operated foosball tables, 2 ping-pon� i:ables (park �epartm�nt), pinball machine (coin operated), furni- �ui^e, whicf� would include tables and chairs, carpeting, and possibly a used ' TV (to be :;cr.ated}, and a rTOVie sc��een a��d projector, to be bo,�rowed from the Fridley �;brary when needed. , ' ' To get this organized, a teir.parary board,consisting of Mike �larsnik, Pa� Q'Neili, F3�rnie and Pat i<lein, hed S'corla, Mark ireuenfels, and Sr. Elizabeth of Grace Nig}� School, would draw up a ch�rtei� providing for the means�of eiect- ing a;�ermanent board. ��1n would also promote public interest by advertising 'in local schual and City� neti-aspapet,s, puttiny posters up in schools ai�d tivriiing p.A. an►touncFments.

Ne said they may be hiring a part time director for this teen center if it was necessary. 3R Mrs. 4lahlberg said it aaas mentioned that they hoped to get funding from the Fridley businessmen and from the coin operated machines. She asked if they had any estimate of how much funding they would need. Mr. Treuenfels said there was no way of estimating the funding they might need at this time. Ne said that if they hired a professiona1 director, this vrould make a difference in the funding requirements. Mrs. Wahlberg�asked if they were a.sking the City to donate this space free for your use, including the heat, electricity, etc. t�1r. Treuenfels said they tivould be able to take care of the maintenance of this room. Mrs. 4Jahl�erg asked Mr. Qoardman if tf�e City had an�icipated any use of this library space? Mr. Qoardman said they were doing a utilization stu�y at the preseni: time, to see if we need any addit�ional staff space. He said this study shou1d be completed in early March, so that at this time he'could not make a determination as to whether or not we do need that space. Mrs. Wahlberg said she knew that some of the staff 4•�ere using that space at the pr^esent time. �1r. E3oardman said it was being used by the Planning internes and Planning aides at the presen�; time on a i;emporary basis. Mr. Boardman asked (�1r. Treuenfels what hours of operation they were think- ina of vrith tl�is proposal, and how would they conflict with the normal City business hours. Pir. Truenfels said he didn't think i� would interfere t�rith the »oi°mal operations of the City. They intend:�d to have it open..after school and ti��eek-ends. It would probably be op�n six to � hours. Mr. Boardman said he could see som� confiict in having a teen center so close to the operai:ion of City government. There v�rould be a certain amount of no�se being generated from this area, especially witn jute boxes. Game tak�les and oth�r uses of this room would yenera±e noise. W? have had a similar problem with the foosball tak�le and the ping-pong tab,les in the Parks and Recreal:ion Departr�ent. The Parks and Recreation Deparment has had to limit �he use of these f�ciliiies quite severely due i:o noise ►vhich has hindered City operations. Chairman Narris said it might be well tc send this propasal do�•Jn to the nie��5er Coimnissior�s so they cou1d study it anc! come up w�ith som� recommendations. 1 M�°.

It was due to this set of circun�stances that the ager�das a�ere not delivered at the nori,�al time. He said he wanted the January 'L8th , minutes ready for this meeting. We did not have any other items for the agerida � because the Comprehensive ftousing Plan was a separate book. , Mr. Scott said this was the first time the Planning Commission hadn't received their agendas well in advance of the Planning Commission meeting, and it was due to unusual circums�;«nces. � � J � ' � ' � MOTION by Wahlbexg, seconded by Langenfeld that the Planning Commission minutes of January 21, 1976 and January 28, 1976 be tabled until the next meeting.

Under A, 4, we did have just the con�inuation of the bike��ray/tivalk►-ray plan and 4��e have added the s�udy of oth�r transpori:ation forms. 41e felt it was necessary �o study these also to increase accessibility in the City.

It should therefore examine and judge each proposal for future development for iis effecis on the environment, ti�e Metro region and trie quality of life in Fridley." Mr. Qoardman said those were the major changes in the plan. They also put in bo1�f� the figure and �ercentage ��,here possible. He said that in their low-;:o-moderate income level housing, they had to change the figures because these figures had been based on the structure value only and Metro-Council bases their figures or, market value. 4Je rejuggled our figures to agree with P�etro Counci 1 and IiUD figures, so uae only have 349 owner occupied units instead of the previous 745 units, We now �;�ve 13B pr�oblem units out of the '349 instead of 22B out of the 745 uni�:s.

Mr. Qoa.rdman said they intended to have an expanded table of contents when thi s pl an ��ras pri nted. � Mr. Bergman saicl the motior on th� floor �ti�as a very encompassing motion, and he would like to zest a pari; of it.

He said he was a little bit concerned at our last-meeiing. He said ave ali recognize i;he benefits to our community and certainly to selected applicants. However, i;here was a negative side. He said that as he understood it and recallecf i'rom ihe last meeting, for all but Section B�housing, the property involved tivas not taxed at the going rat.e. In other words, the rest of the community subsid�zc�s ihe property tax.

Ile said that on nac�e 16 under G, they did state that "It is further recommended that the City continually review exis�:ingfed�ral, stateand local programs for commun- ity development funds. The City should make application to those programs for which it is eligible." In this case, he said they would have to keep a continual ti��ai:ch on whai: federaT programs were available, and not just limi� ourselves to tF;r4se i;hree programs. Mr. Qergman said that anotl�er thing that bothered him was the person pre- senting the availability of these funds obviously was in a very posi�ive frame. She talked about the 13 eon�munities whichw�ere already under Section 8 housing. She said this was a great pragram and that next year they plan on having 26 communities participating in this program, and more the follow- ing year. He said that someone else mentioned thai we had already paid our way. He said he had no quarre7 with that, but where was the line betw�en wha�: are have paid for and requ�sting programs that wi11 raise the fiederal taxes. Mr. Boardman said that he thought that you would find that in a deterior- ating community that if sorne action was not taken, this deterioration will tend to continue, if not exhilarated, S�eps have to be taken and monies have to be provided from somewhere, if not from the Federal governmenl;, then either State or iocal government. How much would local governments be willing to spend for the preservation of neighborhoods. He said it v�as pointed out during the pre��ious meeting that if Fridley did not apply for Federal funds, how muc� difference would that make in Federal taxes, as far as t�ieir spending goes. He:said that wl�ether Fridley cur�ailed asking for funds or made applica±ion for funds, it woulcj not stop the Federal govern- ment i�rom allocating funds for certain projects. Pat Brennen said t{�ere had been studies made, and it cost a lot more to rehabilitate areas tha�t were in a bad state of deterioration than it cost for programs of preservation, so if you were balancing these programs, it was much aetter to•apply for preservation funds than to finance a full scale program for det�riorated housing. She said this tvas the League of Women Voters stand. 3E Mr. Scott said he shared Mr. [3ergman's concern the way Federal funds were circled ar°ot�nd in �c��er�increasi�ig amounts, and comm�.�niti.es trying to get their share of f.hese funds. H� thought this problem.tvas best addressed at the ballot box. He t{�ou�ht ��e hacl sufficient problems in our community so that we should take advantag� of federal programs that had alreauy been fur.ded. Ne said w.e shou�dn't deny the people of Fridley �l;he use of these funds just to provP a poii�t. 1 i�1rs.

HG said he did not mean t;o imply that he had taken one side or the ol;her as a firm position. I�e said he agreed wii:h Mrs. b�ahlberg, but he did get tired of politicians saying �;hat the public �rras demanding more services, therefore, we need money for these programs. He felt that wi�;h these reconm�2ndations that we were part of that public who were making these demands. He said we were an a�rrfully small fish in the stream, but we were joining. Nir. Harris said that Mr. Gergman liad_�a valid point, and someday the government 4�as qoinq to have to sit down and work out some priorities. He said he was also concerned about ��rhat they had been discussing, but the alternatives, and he was thinking about the deterioration of the City, was not very promising, and we �rould like to help provide the City with well- kept homes. Mr. Ber�man said that private enterprise or personal initiative were not mentioned as alternatives. Mr. Harris said there was an alternative by vrhich privai:e en��rprise coiild do the job, but that would need help from the legislature and that was tax incen�:ives. He said it was his feeling thai you cou1d do away with all rehabilitation.programs if we t�rent to a system of tax incentives. Pat Brennen said that the Michael Servetus Church had some property which �hey ��vould like to develop as senior citizen housing. She asked if anyone c4uld tell her how th�y could ge� federai funding help witf� this. Mr. Boardman said she shouid get in touch with the State HUD office, and see what type of funding was available for private developers of housing for the elderly. Mr. Scott said �;here was a 1976 Area Plan for Programs for the Ageing under Ti�:le ITT. He said she should checH; into that program also. He said it was before the legislature at the prese�it time. - Mrs. �vJahlberg �aid the program she had mentioned last week which was a self-help neighborhood p�an was developed by the Nor�;heast Ki�vanis Club. They appliEd for federa1 fundiny, and the City of h1inneapolis gave matching funds. There was a slide presentation that was available i�f anyone was interested in this. �Mr. Qergman said the proposed Coi7prehensive Housing Plan was very well done. T� was very well organizecl. It has been grtatly improved since the oric�inal draft ti�ras pres�nted. He said he thought the administrat.ive staff sl�ould be comn�ended on the ,nany hours o-F effort and organization and talent that I�ave go►ic i nto thi s P1 an . Mrs. l�lahlberg said she thought it was terrific that for the first time Ft,idley has an understanding of where they're really at. She thought this was something that as a City we have nLeded for a long ti�ne. She felt this t��as really going to be a help to the Appeals Commission. Mr. Qoardman said said that when all the goals and objectives had been developed, then they �vould realiy know tivhere they wcre at. Mr. Scott said th� Iluman Resources Conmiission had yiven their plctudits at the last meeting.

Mr. Qoardman sa.id the Public Hearing on the Eomprehensive Housing Plan before the City Counci1 vaould be on February 23, 1976. Mr. Qoardrr�an said he wanted to commend Ray Leek on his work on this plan. He said he had been working 40 hours a�reek on this plan since last July. Chairman F;arris said he .did a very good job. Mr. Scott agreed that it wa� a beautiful job. DISCUSSION OF COP�u��U�lI7Y DEVELOPh1ENT aLOCK GRANT APPLICATIONS Mr. Boardman said �he deadline for Community Development Block Grant applications ��aas March 15th. We do have to have two public hearings on this application. The Public �-learing by thp Planning Commission will be on February 1B, 1976. We are getting it pretty well organized and should have i1: ready by the beginning of next week. Mr. Boardman said he felt this Comnunity Development Block Grantapplication would be in line with a lot of things thaf. were in the Comprehensive Housing Plan, so the Planning Commission could probably handle this without sending it dovrn to the member Commission;, ,�-art of the reason being time. I�e said we have to get the two public hearings in so we can make application, and the City Council could have its pubi ic hearii�g on March 8th. ThSs w�y ��e vrould have time to make any chang�s before the deadline of P�1arch 15th. Chairman Harris asked aboui; the Fiousing Maintenance Code. t�lr. 6oardman said it was included as a recommendation but it would not be going along with the Plan. Tt will be coming early in Marc��. It will be sent to the Planning Conunissior� and from there down to the member Commissions, probably. He said i:he Compreh�nsive Plan was just a rec�mmendation and as those recommendations were impleii�e►�ted they wo�7d be coming to the F'lanning Commission. Mr. Boardman said he would have Ray Leek give some background on these Community Developmen� Block Grants. . Mr. Leek sa'id he ha� a couple of Federal registers that out'ined the act that sets up Ccn��unit.y Development Block Grants if anyone ;1�as interested in loaking at them. He sai� that esseniially �-�hat the COIT;�,�unity Development B1ock Grant Proc��am wus, v�as a new approach to allo�a�inc funds �hat were already exisi:ing. As one part of the Housing and Community Development �ict of 1974, tl�is Gran+� Program consolidates rumerous special purpose programs into a single package. In other words, funds can be used for a wide range ofcon�n�unity ir��prove��ent pro�rai��s. The program ti�ras administered by I�UD. The�list oi= eligible activities fnr (31ock Grants tha�; each community receives, includes land acquisition, the� making of rublic improvemen�.s which can include such things as installai:ion of storm seti�ers where appropriate, buildinr com- ntunity facilii:ies fo�� .}�e elderl�/ or fa�" t;fl^ coi,imunity's y��unc�.

I�ha1: hanpens in the Sta�e ' Planninq Comrnission Meetinq - February 4, 1976 Page 9 �� C1 ' � � � of Minnesota was that from the t�asic amount that was available, certain entitle- ment citics and urban counties (Minnesota only has one urban county and that vras tlennepin County) get a certain percentage of those funds. These funds are taken off the i:op and ��1hat was lef� were cal1ed discretionary funds, which every oi;her local unit of government may apply for. That means that whoever makes ap�]ication ��ras in competition for the remainder of those funds. He said the funding would be about two million dollars'this year. Mr. Leek said that each community had to make a preapplication which goes to their regional development commission, which in our case was Metropolitan Council, for revievr. Metro Council sends �:heir reviewal comments v�ith the application on to HUD. This was reviewed by HUD, and if it was found to con- form to the general guidelines and the program was found to be warranted, then that community ��ras invited to make a final application, which would include a housing systems plan, in our case the Comprehensive Housing Plan. 1 Mr. Leek said this was basically the wa�,� Community Development Block Grant applications ti�rere handled and he would try t,� answer any additional questions the Planning Commiss�on might have. Mr. Scott said that last year HUD received 100% more applications than they had money, so there was a lot oi= competition for these funds. � Mr. Boardman said that in the metropolitan area there were three entitlement cities which G-rere P�inneapolis, St. Paul and Bloomington. These and other entitle- ment cities in the state receive automatic funding off the top of the money � availab1e, to c�ntinue certain�;�ro�rar�s that they already have. After these entitlement cities it goes do!an to urban counties. Hennepin County was the only urban county in our area. He said that last year most of the entitlement cities made application, and it ended up that all the communities in Hennepin � Caunty blocked together under Hennep�in County's urban county portion. They . couldn't get any money by going it alone, so they grc>�;:�ed together under urban couni;y, and they all got funded under urban county. .,,. Leek said that after � tMe top had been taken off the funds by entitlement c:t;ies and urban counties, it left 1.2 m�lliori dollars in�discretionary funds for the entire state. He said that meant that only 16 communities oui;sid� of zhe metropolitan area ' received any tunding. Ii: was expected that there wouldn't be much more in discre�ionary funds this year, maybe 20% more. ' N'irs. Wahlberg asked who would make the decision on how muci� money would be applied for and what it would be used for.within the City of Fridley. Mr. E3oardman said that the adminis�;ration a�as writing out certain programs , that �-�e feel wo«ld be eligil�le for application. This wo�ald be sub,iect to the recommendation of the Planning Con�nission and apprc�va� by the City Council. ' � ' Mr. Qoardman said he didn't know if they had any chance of getting any funding but they would have made a start. Mr. Langenfeld asS:�d if Mr. Qoardman could explain then what i;hey meant when they said at the last meeti;�g that Fridley had a top �ri ori ty rai:i ng. ' • Mr. Qoardman said this ��las two different things. tJe are in the top priority as f�1r as housincJ e�ocs, Lut as far as any I1UD Coinmunity Development alock Grants go, t��c were probably sittinq pret#:y low �n the �toi:cm pule. 11p{�licitions arc �iven iiigher pr�or�ii:y i f tiiey relate to housing as to over crowding and i:he � � . � Planning Commission Meetinc� - f'ebruary �t, 197G Page 10 3 I deter~ioration of the housing stock. These are the two criteria that they judge , all dppTications. tdr. Scott said he thougf�t there t�ras morP than that and that they had almost � as complicated rating sysi:em as the P".etropolitan Council. Mr. Leek said he had been i:o a t��orkshop which pertained to applications � being made by communi�ies in the htetro area. The Metr� Council in evaluating the a��pl;cat�ions that come before them have actually three criteria they.use. One was i:ha1: there was a concentration of low to moderate income groups in 1 the comm«nity. Another F�ras that the applications address residential needs in terms of rehabilii:ation. The third t�Jas �;hat there be a stimulation of reinvestments in blighted areas, so tha� programs woultl.not on]y be govern- � men1; subsidized but .«ould have funding. � Mrs. Wahlherg said she didn't see how Fridley could meet the criteria for over crowding or for deterioraiion of housing to get these funds. Mr. 1 Boardman said that ��:as the problem. He said that with i:hese criteria it h�as easier for small towns to meet these criteria than first ring suburb�, but thai did no1; mean that the first ring suburbs weren't having a problem ��ith ho�ising starting to deteri�rate. He said these smaller tovans were oider than � Fridley, so ti�eir housir�g stock was older and there was over crowding so they met the criteria set down by HUD. � ' Mr. Boardman asl:ed Mr. Leek to relate some of the programs that would be mentioned it� Fridley's Hud Block Grant app7ication. � Mr. �eek said that one of the prog��an�s theY were talking abaut in our appl i cai;i on ti�-as the establ i shment and i mpl emer� �a�ti on of the struc�ural. and Exierior ho:�sing maintenance code:, a.nd systemaiic enforcement ofi that code ' in prima�°�r target or primary focus areas that ��rere talked about in t�se Housing Plan. 4ve are also applying for the HUD money for purpase of tlousiny rehab�7- itation. In other words the money t�ou1d be used to help make home"rehabili�cation � iaans within the Ciiy. 41e are also talking abou�: using that samz HUD mon�y to esta�lish counseling or a referral service, ��lhereby there would be a central file of r;sources of wi�o to go to and where to ga if you want help in rehab- ilita�'ing ya�<r home oN r�aking home repairs. This was the major thrust of th�e ' application that we are developing. 4Je did tal�: Ubout a couple of otl��er i;hi��gs. t��e talked about 'che developing and helping to implement an information an� referi°a� service that sei,vices Fridley, this would not pr�clude helping ' an exi s�ti ng servi ce. t�t�othe?^ typt� of program 1;hat we were making appl i cati on for ��as the contii�uation oi- ti�e C�ity bikeway/wai�way system and a st�!dy of an�� other ��er�n o�' transpo� ation and implemen�:ation plan fa� a transportation ' syste,� wi th�i n the Ci ty of Fri cil ey. We were tal ki ng about thc constructi on of a senior• citizen center to provide _the necessar�� serv�ces for �:he Cit��'s eiderly �opulatian. P1r. Qoardman sa�id another thit�g they had discussed was ' tl�e acquisiticn of land in i:he Riverview Heights area. This was in the flood plain area. Mr. Sc��i.t ask�d aboui; i;l�e do�vntown area. h1r. Leek said i;hat when.you talkeu ' ab�::� do�;riitotivn rehabi 1 i�:� ti on proc�rlr�s �Znd i ndustri al ori ented programs, you were tal�.ing �71�L`Ut tlti'0 difi:;ren1; tl�ings. Mr. Scott said he was talking about i�elt�in�� i:he c��mmercial cent��rs in Fridley. He said that an internal transporta- , �.i�r+ sysL��i;i in f=i�id]ey 4•rou]d!�'t ci�� un,y good if yc�u didn't have any place to ,yo. ' � A Plat�ning Commission t�eetin� - February 4, 1976 Page Y� � � ' Mrs, blat�lberg asked if there was any single proposal in this application that was for senior� citizen housing? htr. t3oardman said that at this time, he was not all that convinced that we need a specific senior citizen housing program. He said he ��ould like how the Section II subsidized housing program affected i:he senior citizens in our comn�unity. Mr. Scott said that Wyn7an Smith had already approached the Numan Resources ' Commi„ion about senior citizen housing on part of the Michael Servetus property. Mr. Scoi:t said that ai: the present time, only 2.1/ of the population in Fridley were senior citizens. � � J � � i �' �' � ' � ' ' , Mrs. ��ahlberg said that as she had mentioned at the last meeting, the Appeals Commission G�ras concerned about senior citizen housing, and tl�at although the senior citizen population probably didn't warrant a separate housing program at this time, most of the l and in Fridley was already in use, and she thouyht that land could be se1: asi�e for this purpose, and be used at a later date. She felt that senior citizen housing, in order to be effeci;ive, ��hould be close to shopping and other facilities. She said that a lot of citizens in Fridley had parents who were senior citizens and vrould �ike to have them ]ive in Fridley. Mr. (3oardman said you would have to have a Housing�Authority to provide senio� citizen iiousing, and this was still some where down the line. Mr. Scott said he �hought the items that Mr. Leek had mentioned that would be in the applica�ion for HUD Community Develapn�ent Block Grant funds sounded good. Chairrr�a.n Harris said the only problem w�uld be to get HUD to give us the money. � PLANNING AfdD ZONIfdG INSTITUTE: FE3RUARY 25 & 2G, 1976: "THEY NEV�R LISTEN TO US" Mr. Boardman said that as'many members of th� P7anning Commission who could arrange to attend this Institute session should try to do so: Chairman Harris said he would try �:n arrange to att�nd. Mr. Bergman said he would try to do so also. The other members said they wouTd see ��vhat t�ey could do aboui attend�ing. Mr. Boaruman said they should let him know by February 13, 1976 so that all the reservations could be made at one iime.

APPROVAL OF MINUTES OF DECEMBER 3, 1975 CATV__COMMISSIOPd MEETING: , Mr. Marcus stated he would like to make a number of corrections to the minutes of the December 3 meeting. He stated on page 3, . the first sentence should read: Mr. Marcus stated it was in the ' best interests of General Television to have subscribers on both services. , Mr. Marcus added another correction should be made on page 3, paragraph 9. The last sentence of that paragraph s�ould read: If they get that commitment, it would make it much more feasible. Mr. Marcus stated another correction should be made on page 3, the fou=th sentence of the last paragraph. The sentence should read: This would allow them to cherry pick from any program available on the satellite. Mr. Marcus added a correction sliould be made on page 5, paragraph four. The sentence should read as follows: Mr. Marcus stated if they could continue to boost their subscriber count, GTV would probably be interested in expanding. Mrs. Hughes stated that as she had not yet read the minutes of the December 3 meeting, she would like to table this item until th.e next meeting. MOTION by Barbara Hughes, seconded by Nanci Wrubel, to table the approval of the minutes of the December 3 CATV Commission meeting until the next regular meeting. Upon a voice vote, all vating aye, the motion carried unanimously. II. AISCUSSION ON REC�NT PAY-CABL� DEVELOPMENTS: Attorney Douglas Hedin stated the first question �aas "May the city receive 5% of the company's revenues franits Cinema III operations?" He explained the only reason the � � � � 4A ' CATV COMMISSION MEETING PAG�: TWO city has any claim to any revenue fram Cinema III in 1975 was• because the filters were not installed until the beginning of this year. He added the FCC stated that local franchise fees may not be placed upon pay-cable revenues. Mr. Hedin stated since the Cinema III subscribers were also ' receiving the basic service, it was his feeling that the city can claim 5% of the $7.50 por.tion of the $9.95 which went for local origination. He added there was not much of an argument for the city to claim 5% of the remaining $2.45 which went for the Cinema III. The only argument would be that the company had illegally raised its rates to $9.95 without informing the city. He felt, ' therefore, that the $2.45 was exempt. He stated the city could claim 5% on any installation fees. However, advertising was not a part of the gross subscriber revenues. Therefore, the city could not claim S% on that. Mr. Hedin explained the FCC has said very little about the relationship between the basic subscriber service and the pay-cable. They did suggest that the pay-cable operator take the revenues from this and use them for local origination. He added for 1976 the city has no claim for 5% of the $9.95 to Cinema III only subscribers. He explained Mr. Herrick shares a different feeling on this. MOTION by Barbara Hughes, seconded by Nanci Wrubel, that the city notify the company that the 5% revenues from 1975 will include installation fees, monthly service charges, and $7.50 of tIze Cinema TII only monthly service charges due as of Marcfi 1, 1976. Mr. Haines stated he�would like to see the company and the city try to resolve the problem with the least amount of peaple as necessary. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. The Commission asked that Mr. Herrick be advise�' to look over this in accordance with his letter dated December 23, 1975, and that it be on the agenda for the City Council meeting. Mr. iiedin stated the second question was "Does the offering 1 of the Cinema III channel, without the public service channels, violate the provisions of the city's Cable Television �ranchise?" He stated he felt this did violate the ordinance. , , ' � ' , � ' ' � �J ' , � „ CATV COMMISSION MEETING PAGE: THREE He explained GTV�s lawyer may have a different interpretation of the words "subscriber" and "capability". He felt it would be a futile exercise to try to determine what the Council meant by these words when the ordinance was written. He added his interpretation was that the word "subscriber" included pay- cable. Mark Scott sug�ested tiie Commission give the company a date to come into compliar_ce with �the ordinance. Mr. Hedin added, if the company has a strong argument that they are not in violation, the Commission may simply ask them to amend their ordinance. MOTION by Barbara Hughes, seconded by Ken Brennen, that the city inform the company that the company is in violation of , Section 405.253 of. the Cable Television Ordinance and rvquest that the company inform the Commission by February 11, 1976 �wr�.q�g of their intentions for coming into compliance with the ordinance. Mrs. Hughes statect she wouZd like it noted in the minutes that this is based upon the strict interpretation of the words "subscriber" and "capability" from the ordinance as reflected in the memo. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, THE MOTTON CARRIEA UNANIMOUSLY. rir. Hedin stated the third question was "Does the company�s present aperation of the Cinema III channel violate any of the rules of the Federal Communications Commission?" Mr. Hedin explained his advice would be to join the public ' service channels and the pay=cabZe. He recommended the Com- missio'n not file a petition with the FCC as that u�ay delay a decision for an indefinite periad of time. , Mr. Hedin also informed the Commission of the 90 percent rule which was in effect at the time the company bought Cinema IIT. �Ie adde.d this is a part ot the cable television system, and ' it falls within the city's jurisdiction to see to it that the FCC's rules are enforced. ' MOTION by Barbara Hughes, seconded by John Haines, that the city notify the company the Commission has note�. on its sub- scription cablecasting operations that the company is not in full compliance with Section 76.225 (d) - 90 percent Rule -(FCC) ' and that the FrzdZey Commi.ssion expects the�company to come into compliance by April 1, I976. ' � , Mr. Marcus stated GTV has plans for children�s programs, concerts, etc. He added these types of programs were simply not avail- able previously. He explained it was his expectation they would have these films by ApriZ 1. 4C CATV COMMISSION MEETING PAGE: FOUR Mrs. Wrubel aske� whether Mr. Marcus had actually sought these types of programming previously. He stated' yes, he had. However., they would not be available for a certain amount of time. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, THE MOTION CARRTED UNANIMOUSLY. III. DISCUSSION ON THE PRQGRESS QF THE ANNUAL R�PORT: Mr. Brennen read aloud the first draft o� the Commission's annual report. He stated he had to condense the material given to him by the other Commission members in order that the report be kept to a maximum of two pages. He commended the other Commission members for the fine work they had done in assisting ta�th the xepo�.�, A copy of the report will be sent to each Commission member no later than the week of January 26. IV. DISCUSSION ON THE COMMISSION�S SURVEY: Mr, Scott stated the community schools, the Anoka County Com- munications Workshop, the Anoka County Library Board of Directars, General Television, and the City of Fridley will be asked to formulate two or three questions to be incorporated into the survey. He stated he would contact these organizations as soon as possible in order to meet the March deadline for the completion of the survey and annual report. Mr. Moravetz stated the City would probably like two questions ' incorporated into the survey: (1) What percentage of the citizens view the govern�ent access channel, and (2) What percentage of the citizens view the Council meetings. , V. DISGUSSION ON LETTER AND STATEMENT FROM ATTORNEY, DAVID GOLDMAN: Mr. 5cott asked the Commissian to refer to the memo he had � written to Mr. Moravetz regarding this matter. He added most of tlie time spent with Mr. Goldman was in conversations dis- cussing whether or not Mr. Goldman had a conflict of interest. � , , , , Mr. Moravetz stated he could not authorize this payment of $250 since he had r_o proof of anything accomplished by Mr. Goldman. Mr, Brennen felt this matter should be referred to the city attorney. MOTION by Barbara Hughes, seconded by Nanci Wrubel, that the Commission convey Mr. Goldman's letter and statement along with Mr. Scott�s ?etter to the city att4rney and ask him to consider what liab'iliLy the city might tzave towards Mr. Goldman. Upon a voice vote, a11 voting aye, the motion carried unanimously. � � , CATV COMMISSION ME�TING PAGE: FIVE V.

He again stated he did feel the city had a claim to 5% of that amount. Mr. Hedin added that what General Television has done is 100� opposite of what the FCC has said. The FCC was afraid that some cable TV companies would hide the pay-cable in the regular service. I�e explained General Television has hidden the regular ser- vice in the pay-cable service in an effort to save 5%. Mr. Hedin stated because it appears that so much of the revenues are coming from pay-cable, he would have the Commission consider asking the City Council to petition the FCC for a waiver of its rules and ' 5A � CATV �OMMISSION PAGE TWO 1 have the S% extended to receipts from pay-cable. � Mr. Scott stated he was willing to stand on the first motion made � by the Commission at'their January 21, 1976 meeting. � Mr. Hedin stated this would depend upon getting informatidn from the company as to how much of its monthly revenues are derived � from the pay-only service. Mr. Scott stated his main concern was not the amount of money, � but that pay-cable is now different than what the FCC envisioned. � Mr. Scott asked whether a petition at the FCC Ievel couZd be with- drawn. Mr. Hedin said yes. � Mr. Scott stated he wanted to take a strong stand on this. ' The Commission agreed upon the following statement to be made in conjunction with the first motion made at the January 21, 1976 CATV Commission meeting: �l , We have advised the company of what revenues will be liable for the S% revenues and they have responded that they do not agree, but it is our determination that their arguments do nat go to the point of our determination. We are advising the City that in the review of the books of the company, the City is justified in claiming these ztems as listed in the motion. Also, that a bill be sen.t to the company for that amount of money followino the audit, and if the company con- tinues to d�sagree, they have several optionsc 1. Use the $50,000 performance bond • 2._ Sue the company 3. Although �ve thinlc it is premature at this time, the FCC could be petitzoned for a waiver of the pay-TV revenues for 1975. The Commission is sLudying what would be involved in waivers �n the pay-TV revenues for 19�6. B. Di.scussion on second motion: (That the Clty inform the company that the CompanY is in viola�ion of Section 405.253 of thP Cable Teievision Ordinance and request that the co►�ipany inform the Commission by February 11, 1976 in �riting of their intentions for coming into compliance with the ordinance. Mr. Hedin stated tne City Council could (1) petition the FCC for r� waiver, or (2) amend the ordinance. Ms. Hugt�es asked Mr. Hedin whether he felt General Television's ar�ument had any validity. He said no. Mr. Brentzen stated lie did not feel it would be good for the City to proceed witti a petition at this time. Iie added (1) We haven't the documentation of the extent to which Cinema III has suppressed the regular service, and (2) GTV has recently ilired a local orig- ination d_ir��rtor, �nd they could use this as an argument to show thst r.hcy are tryit��; *_o build up the primary service. , �. l_ � � � � � , .� _ J � �� CATV COMMISSION PAGE THREE Ms. Hughes stated this may be a process the Commission may want to use at the end of the year. The Commission agreed upon the following statement to be made in conjunction with the secondmotion made at th.e January 21, 1976 CATV Commission meeting: We ure advising the City Council that we have informed the company that they are not in compliance with Section 405.253 relating to public access channe�,s for subsczibexs. The company has advised us they dq not agxee with our interpretation. We are advising the Council that we still consider the company in violation. Secondly, the ordinance required all subscribers to receive these channels. • �i�irdly, this is an area that is preemgted by the FCC, but exactly which specific points are preempted are not clear. We suggest that the City advise the company that they must come into compliance accord- ingly to the procedures laid out in the ordinance in Section 405.29, and that the Council set a special hearing date as soon as possible for making a determinat:ion of whether or not the company is in eompliance and that the normal procedures (as outlined in the ordinance) will follow. C. Discussian on thir.d motion: (That the City notify the company the Commission has noted an its subscription cablecasting operations tha� the company is not in full comgliance with Section 76.225(d) - 90 percent Rule -(rCC) and that the Fridley Commission expects the company to come into compliance by April 1, 1976.) The Commission agreed upan the folZowing statement to be made in con- � junction with the third motion made at the January 21, 1976 CATV Commission Meeting: � We are advising the City Council that we have notified the company that they are out of compliance on the 90% Rule (FCC) and we ask that the City Council set a special nearing date the same as for motion two on this issue, and that not?ce be given and that the procedures outlined � in the ordinance then be followed for notification. Also, that if the company not come into compliance within 90 days, that the City advise the FCC that the company i_s out of compliance in a formal petition. � The Com:mission would expect the City's obligation. ta cease at that point on tnis third section. � � � � Mr. Hedin stated he felt the Gommission should tell the City Council about the problems of arbitration. This may leave them in a very difficult bind.Because it involves several areas of law, it is a very suitable mechanism. IV. AUDIT OF GEN�RAL TELEVISIOI�' BOOKS. FOit REVENUES DUE MARCH 1: MOTION by Barbara Hughes, seconded by Nanci Wrubel, that the Commission inform tlie appro�riate city officials that the audit must include number of installation fees and costs, monthly service charge infor- mation for basic customers and Cinema III-only subscribers. Upon a voice Vote, all votin,n, aye, tlie motion carried unanimously. �_1 � � V. � � ' � � CATV COMMISSION PAGE FOUR DISCUSSION DF MEMO FROM MAYOR, DECEMBFR 11, 1975: PUBLIC CHANNrL UTILIZATION: Mr. Brennen explained the workings of the Anoka County Communica- tions Worlcshop . Mr. Scott stated he had done some investigation into expenses. He explained if the equipment were housed at General Television, the cost would be approximately $6000 t.o $7000. The City would have access to this equipment Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. He added the 1'ibrary at this time has a modulator and a monitor, so approximately $1500 of the cost to house theequipment would alread}* be ta'•.en carP of . The. p�iblic *,aould have access to rhis six days per week.. If the equipment were housed at City Hall, there would be access six days per week also. Mr. Scott further stated he d�d not feel the schooZ district would be interested in housing this equipment. Mr. Scott elaborated on the expenses staiing if the equipment was housed at the schools or City Hall, the cost would be approximately $6500. Also, if the library or General Television housed the equipment, the cost woulc3 L-e �pproxa_mat:ely $6200. 5C Mr. Moravetz stated if the Commission�s survey indicates most citizens � do not watch the governmeizt channel, possibly message wheels could be set up in lieu of the character generators. This would be more attrac- tive to the viewers. � � � Mayor Nee stated the Commission or the Councii could presenta proposa]. to the School Board in an effort to improve communications in the community. Mr. Scott stated even though the Cammission is in negotiations with General Teletii_sion, the Commission would be happy to approach Jeff Marcus and ask his ieelings on this memo. He stated the Commission could make a proposal available to the Council in March. VI .

' I1 , �� LJ � I� �, �u � J � ' � �J ' It seems c.Zear that the position af both the Commission and Mr. Iiedin on question numUer one results from a misunder� standing of what has been the policy of General Television since it commenced operations in Fric?ley, as it cannot be questioned that the present po.licy is in the best interests of the customer. In tize event any customer requests that his service be disconi�inued, no matter th� type of service, the customer is no longer billed for that service from the date of the request, even though he continues to have the ability to receive th� se�-vice until actual disconnection. As it is impossible for a customer to be "disconnected" the sarne day that his request for disconnection is m�ade, the Company beli�ves ti�i� best policy to be �ollawed is to no longer charge the customer for that service from the aate of reques�. The same policy prevailed during General Television's promo�ion in the rall of 1975, with which I assume you are familiar. Wit�h r.cspect �o those customers who el�cted to r�tain the Cinema IIT service on�y, on the date of the rec�ucst that the regular subscrii�er service be discontinued such customers were no longer �harged for the regular subscriber service in accordance with the long standing policy of General Television as outlined avove. Dioi-eover, the ordinance provides that the only revenucs subject to the franchis� fee are "grass subscriber revcnues", whicl� �rc c3cf.i.ned zs i-.ii�:;e r.cvenucs derived trom regular subscriber servicc. 11fi�er a customer. requesi�s tl�at he no longez receive the regulzr subscriber :��rvice, he is no long�r charged for stich service .

This, howTever, has never been erhaps General Television's policy. At the risk oi repetition, p another example w�uld bc helpful. Assume that tcac customers requesi: disconnectian of the regular subscriber service, one of wYiom had been receiv�.ng tlie regular subscriber service only and onE of wnom had becn receiving the regul.ar subscrik�er service plus the Cinema III. From the date of �uch request, General Television, in accordance �aith the present policy, would continue tc charge the second cusLomer ior_ Cine;�,_:: III only whil� charging the first cusi�omer noth:.ng. It is difficult to see how this practice violates i:he prohibition against� preferential or discriminatory practices. In iact, to adopt the CGmmission's and Mr. Hedin's position would constitute a clear violation of this prohibition. The second area oi controversy is, as you state in your letter, the heart af the dispure betwc�en tne Commission and General Television. Basically t��o questions are involved: 1. Whether the crdi.nance allows the Cinema TII service only to be ofLered by Gen�ral Television without th� public sexvice channeis; and 2. Notwithstanding a violation of thc ordinance, wheti7er offering Cinema _III s�?-vice only i:s authorized by the Federal CO1lU:li1I11Cc1�lO:1S Commission �n a manner whicl� prcempts local regulation. If th� answer to either of tl�e above i:��o c�u�stions is in the af£irmative, General Tel��Tisian's presc�nt; practi.ces cannot be subjeci� to comp].aint bs' thc Ci_t� . With respect to t?"ie L-ir� t c�ucstic�n, rir: Hedin concedes that tlZe or3iri�nce is suujcct t.c� c�.ifferi:ng inter_�retations. To begin with, in v�-c�� Ui ti��: 1�C�' "s L-�t:�l preemp�won c�f and �rohibition of any ?oc�l r.c�c�ul.ation r�garding pay cable, it is difficult to see how thc tC1Il1 "su��criber" could include a pay eable only customer. Secozidly, Section 405.253 of the ordinance requires only that a subsci'ik�c'r' s home have ttie capabi].ity of receiving the public acc��ss ct;annels. Capabili:ty daes not mean that each suUscriber n��ust act�u.ill.y receive such channels. . fi 12at;ll�r, capzbility Il1(��I1S Lllat if a subscriber wishes to pay �or such ch<:�nnel.s, he i:tlen car. .rece�_vc s�ach cYiannels. , � � � �� ' Mr. ria.rk Scott February 9, 1976 Page Four ' Regardless, howevcr, of the wording in the ordinanc�, it is quite clear that tize FCC has preempi�ed all a�pects of pay cable. Mr. Hedin docs noi� quarre7. with this. As I trust you are aware, in its Repori� and Order adcpted February 2, 1972, the FCC stated that "it is this Commzssa_on that must make the decisions as to condi�.ions to be imposea on the operation of pay cabl� chann�ls ...." The FCC went on to say that "w2 think that in this area a dual f_orm of regulation ��ouZd be r.onfusing and i.mpractical." The FCC has uncquivocally�stated that cable tclevision systems ar� author�zed to conduct pay cabl.e operations, that local authorit.�es are preempted from interfcring with such operations, that local franchise ter:ns regulating pay cable are inoperative, that local fees on pay cable are prohibited, that imposition of a local franchise fee an pay cable revenues is prohibited, and that the local regulation of pay cable rates is prohibited. What the Fridley Commission is attemPting to do in this situation, of course, is regulate pay cable by imposing conditions on i�s operation, i.e., that such service cannot be offercd except irz connection with �h� public service cYlannels. That this is a forr.� of requlatiar� o� pay cable and is pl"OY11h1.tCC� by the �'C:G seems toa clear to bzlabor any further. I£ any doubt r.enains in your mind, hawever, we would suqgest that an interpretaticn be obtained from the FCC.

Additionally, we are puzzled by the actiorls of L-he Commission in view af the fact tha�: the ordinance es�tablishes the Commission as an advisory committee to the City Cauncil, to advise and assist the Gity Council upon all matters affecting the CATV syst�m in the City. On the other hand, Section 405.29 of the ordinance authorizes the City Council, after a hearing, to determine oahethez tl�e Company is failing to perform and carry out any of the provisions o� the ordinance. If a violation is claimecl, notice is given and the Corr,pany has ninety days in wl�ich to r_emedy any f�ilures. tahile this section provides the rudiments of due process, the Commission has prc-- ceed�d without semblance of dtie process and determin�d zhat several violations of the ordinanc� exist, dernanding that corrective actions be taken. Whether the Commission is empowered to proceed in this manner is highly doubtful; but, more importantly, it appears that the Commission has become an adversary body rather than a cooperative body of citizens seeking to work with a cable television system �o k�romote the best interests of the City and the cable telev�sion customers thro�gh construct�_ve suggestians for prograitu;li:�c; and other operatiens .

HEDIN SUl3JECT: 1� 'ALYSIS OF GENERAL TELEVISIOi�t' S ' C:�.NFMA rII OPERATIONS TELEPHONE: 612/333-3481 I. FACTS . . 1. Facts. General �levision offers the citizens of Fridley three subscription options: (a) the regular service for which i:he monthly charge is $7.50; (b) Cinema III for cahich the monthZy charge is $9.95; and (c) the regular service plus Cinema III for wha.ch the ma�thly charge is $16.00. A subscriber to Cinema IiI receives approximately twelve first-rur. movies each month and is able to receive over-the-air �aroadcast stations. A filter at- tached to the suuscriber`s set prevents reception of government, education and public access programmin.g. . 2. Questions. (a) M�y the city rer,eive 5% of the company's revenues from its Cinema III operatior.s? • (b) Daes the offering of the Cinema III channel, without the public service channels, violate the pro- visions of the City's Cable �? evisic�n Franchise?

' �II. �'RANCHIS� FEE 3. Franchise Provisions. Under Section 405.05 of the franchise, , the cit receives 50 of the company's annual "gross subscriber . y � � � revenues", which are defined in Section 405.011, Subdivision 9 as "those revenues derived from regular subscriber services but not including advertising.. l.eased channel fees or other fees derived from non-subscriber services.° Under franchise Section 405.224, the company must notify the city of any proposed rate "change". This section applies to insta�iation and monthly service charges, but not to subscription • cablecasting rates. The city has reserved to itself the right � io approve or reject the requested rate °change" i.n the last �" sentence of this section. A rate change may be either an increase or a decrease, While the city may wai��e review of a rate de- crease, it certainly has tY±e authority under this section to review ar.y decrease in the monthly service charges which would so substantially reduce the compar�y's gross subscriber revenues � as to make the city's 5o portion miniinal or almost none�:istent. The company, of course, has never notified the city that it pro- posed to r�duce zhe monthly servicQ charge, which is now $7.50� �or one outlet in a single-family dvaelling. Franchise Section 405.261 prohibits preferential or discriminatory � pr�ci:.;4c4s . � The last sentence of th?s section provides as follows� _ �. Mcmorandum �` Page Three � �`� . •t "The company shall not, as to rates, charges, service facilities, rules, regulations or in any other respect ,� make cr grant any prefercnce or advantage to any per- � son, nor subject any person to any prejudice or dis- • advantage." � � 4. FCC Rules. The FCC has defined the term, "regular subscriber service", as used in Section 405.011, Subdivision 9, to mean service r_eguiarly provided to all.subscribers, including broad- cas-t signal curriage, designa�ed access channels and origination programming, but excluding subscription cablecasting. Clarif ica- �:ion of Rui��s, 39 Federal Register Z4288, 14297 (April 22, 1974). By FCC definition, the term "gross subscriber revenues", as used a.n Section 76.31(b) of its rules, which govern municipal franchise fees, includes: "...�nly those revenues de�ived from the supplying of regular subscriber service;_tnat is, tne installation fees, disconnect and reconnect fees, and fees �or re- gular cable benefits including th� transmission of �� broaacast and access and origination channels if any. It does not include revenues derived from per-program or per-channel charges, leased cr,annel revenues, ad- vertising rev�nues or any other income derived from the system." Clarification of Rules, supra, at 14298. �. Thus revenues derived solely from Cinema III are not subject to the 5� fee because that revenue would �e derived from a per- � r,hannel. eharge which is exempt from the�Zocal franchise fee by the FCC. 5. Compar.y Practice. Until approximate�y the end of 1975, a subscriber to Cine*_na iI� received tl�e regular subscriber service in additinn to aboat twelve motion pictures each month and paid � $9.95 for �Lhese scrvices. . � � � � �� Memorandum . page Four � . , :� _� . 6, City's Fee for 1975. The company apparently claims that the $9.95 received from the Cinema III subscriber in 1975 is entirely exempt from the city's 50 levy under the federal rules described earlier. Essentially the company claims that the 5ubscriber paid $9.95 for the movies and nothing for the regu- �ar subscriber service. The company.has never proposed, pursuant to �ranchise 5ection 405.224, that the monthly service charge I� for the regular subscriber service to the Cinema III subscriber be decr�ase<:; from $7.50 to zero. Of �reater �mportance �s zne fact that such a preferential service to one class of subscribers contravenes Franchise Section 405.261. For both of these rea- sons the company's argument is without merit. I it is my opinion that the city is entitled to receive 50 of the �- ��irst $7.50 ($00.375) received by the company from a Cinema III I subscriber who also received the'hasic subscriber service in � _ �� 1975. The remaining $2.45 is exempt from the city levy. The i� city cannot claim a percentage of $2.45 because it never authorized . an incr�ase in the m,onthly subscriber fee beyond $8.00. (Actually I� $7.50 for a single-family dwelling and a possib].e-$0.50 increase 3.n the near future. The figures mentio-ned in this paragraph are for the first�outlet of a single-family dwelling, and must be varied for other classes described in I'ranchise Section 405.222.) ?. City's Fee in 197G. In ear,ly January, 1976, the company began instaZling a speci��l filter wh?ch will prevent the Cinema i � I � , i � :� - . '! i , � Memorandum Page E'ive III subscriber from receiving the regular subscriber service. For this movie service, the Cinema �II subscriber will continue to pay $9.95 each month. L'nd�r the federal rules described above, revenues derived soleZy from a pay-cable channel ar� not subject to the city's 50 levy. Tt is my view, that the city may not claim 50 of reverrues derived.solely from Cinema III subscribers in 1976. 8. Potenti�l FCC Ruling. Th� FCC has recognized that income fram auxiliary services such as pay-cable eventually may con- stitute most of the cabl.e system's rzceipts, and has stated that it "has no intention of depriving the franchising authority of a reasanable percentagP of th�se receipts at that time." Clarification of Rules, supra, at 14298. If Cinema III sub-_ scribership cont�_nues to burgEOn, and revenues from this special- ized service make up the bulk of General Television's receipts in 1976, the city should consider petitioning the FCC for a1.Ioc�ance to rea�ive 5 0 of the compar�y's "gross �evenues" which would include subscription cablecasting receipts. �� 9. Recommendation. For Galendar 1975, the city is entitled to I' receive 5 o ef the followir_g revenues deri.ved from the co�npany's Cinema III operations: Installment fees �nd monthly service I� charges, c�efined in Franchise Sectior. 405.222, paid by the Cinema _ III subscrii�ers, who also .received the regular service in 1975. � Any receipts in e�cess of the monthly s�rvice charge are exempt. I � I � 0 �Y � � ��y � ,. . � � � . ' � � 0 Memorandum page Six St is recommended that the city notify the company immediately. of its position in view of the fact that Franchise Seci:ion 405.05 requires the company t� pay the c�ty its fee prior to ' March 1, 1976. III. LOCAL FRANCiiISE PROVISIONS � AND�CINEMA III OPERATIONS 10. Local Franchise. Discussion of the local ordinance must commence with Section 405.011, Subc�vision 6, which defines "subscriber" as "any person who has a contraci: with the company for service." Determination that this def?nition applies to a Cinema ITI-only subscriber is important because that wiZl trigger the application of SPction 405.253, periaining to the gublic service channe?s. - I� is my opinion that the definition of "subscriber" se� �orth in Section 405.011, Subdivision 6, $nccmpasses a Cinema IIl-only subscriber. There are two reasons for this conc�usion. First, and most importantly, such a subscriber in fa�t has a service contract with the company, and therefore com�s t,rii,hin the literal terms of the definition. Sec�nd, the FCC has nevEr• differentiated bet�veen pay--eable subscribers and regular service subscribers. T}le fact that pay-cable is beyond the jurisdiction o� the city does noi: mean that the ��ard "service" as used in Subdivision 6 means only regular subscriber service and r�oi: subscription cable- casting. � _ _ , _. , � , i � Memorandum Page Seven Several months ago, the FCC stated: "Subscri�tion cablecasting involves �he closed-circuit cable television system distribution of�non-broadcast programming for a�hich the cable television system subscriber is charged an addii.ional program or channel fee beyond the regular monthly fee far the system's television signal reception." First Report and Ord�r, 52 F.C.C.2d 1, 2(1975). (Emphasis added.) � This statement indicates that the FCC envisioned subscription cable as supplementing the basic subscriber service, and that a pay-cable subscriber simpiy was a regular subscriber who paid more per month for extra services. � a � 11. Under Franchise Section 405.253� Subdivision 2� "each sub- , scriber's home shall have the capability of receiving" the public , I � service channels descri.bed in Subdivision 1 of that section. A�ter the in�tallation of the new filters, a Cinema III-only subscriber may r�ceive only the special movie channel and �he o�;er-the-air broadcast stations. Such a subscriber's home does r.ot haye the "�apability" of receiving the public service cnann�ls describ�d in Section 405.253, Subdivision 1. The Cinema III fi3.�ers pre- vent this mandated public service capabili�y. Section 405.253, �herefore, is being violatecl by the company's failure ta provide public service channels to the Cinema III-only subscribers. � r � �� ,.1�. 1 ,, Memorandum Page eight ].2. Recommendation, If the Cable Commission accepts the analysis set forth above, the Company should be informed im- mediately of the Comm�ission's belief that Section 405.253 is being violated, and in addition be requested to advise the Commission within several�days of its position. If the eompany fails to accede to the Comr,iission's demands, it is recommended that the City Council "determine" th� company's violation of the franchise, in acco��ance wit}i the procedures in Secticn 405.29, and notify the Company tha't it has 90 days to come into compliance with the franchise by providing the public service channels to the Cinema III subscribers. Z�J . FCC RULES AND REGULATIONS AND CINEMA III C�PERATIONS 13. FCC rules can be reasonably interpreted ta require � General Television, which is a cable television s�.�stem.within tlie meaniiig of 47 C.I'.R. Section 76.5, to r.arry the various public service channels de�ignated in Section 7G..25I to a1? Cinema III subscribers. The FCC has expressed the view that the pay-cable suk�scr�_ber is an individual to whom the operator �� has certain mandated public service obligatior.s. In its First ' Report and Order,su ra, the FCC rejected the suggestion by �� broadcast intere.si:s that pay cable operators be limited to one � I � pay cable channel per system and be required to originate non-pay programminc�. Th� FCC stated: � ;�� ''I� � �V `YV� ` I I,'.�� , � � 0 Memorandum � Page nine Gable television...does not make use of - broadcast frequencies and has extensive channel poteni�ial. Substantial public ser_vice obligations are placed upon cable . television by Sections 76.251 and 76.253 . of the Rules, which require that channel space anr.� production facilities be made available for government, educational and � public use. We see no interest. to be served by restricting the numbEr of sub- scription channels to one per cable system . and by requiring non-subscripti.on programming on pay channels where sufficient channel � space is available to meet pub]_ic service prog'tamming needs. First Repc>rt and Order, 52 F.C.C.2d at 4S (i975) The FCC therefore will not impase further publ.ic service obligations on the pay cable operator because it believes that the existing obligations in Sections 7G.251 and 76.253 are enough. Preswnably, if the pay cable operator had no obligation to provide publa.c access service� to its subscribers, the FCC would not have made this statement. The present controversy, of course, has arisen precisely because the Cinema III subscribers do not have the cax�ability of receiving the public service channels. 14. Tf this analysis of the rules and policy of the FCC is acce��ted by the Commission, it may seek redress by petitioning the FCC for an Order to Sho�a Cause to be issued to the company. If issued, this Ordez wouid require the Comapny to show why it is not in viol«tion of the fede.ral rules and why the relief sought by the city Co:nmission shouid not be granted. � � � � _ � �� I � I � I � � � Memorandum Pag� ten. 15. There are four reasons why T recommend that, at this juncture in the controversy, the City and Commission avoid seeking redress before the FCC. First, the FCC has never �addressed itself to the question of whether its own rules require a pay cable operator to provide to its subscribers the public service channels and service. Because the questions raised by any Fridley petition would be of first impression, the FCC might enlar_ge tr� proceeding into a time- consuming, larger inquiry �nto this �ype of operation. A decision, in any event, would not be quickly madP. Second, there is no federal counterpart of franchise Section 405.253, and this makes the argument for federal violation less obvious than that made earlier for violation of the local franchisP. Third, the FCC has preempted the area of pay cable and any local regulation of rates or service is inoperative. First Report and Order, 52 F.C.C.2d at 67 (Z975}. It is advisable to avoid all preemption claims by placing primary emphasis � upon the company's vialation af specific provisions of the local. azdinance. A local reauirement that pay cable subscribers r.eceiv� the public service channels would not be a regulation of subscription cablecasting. Fourth, the attorneys on the staff of the FCC, with cahom I have consulted, are not so easily persua�ed that a pay-only system violates Section 76.251. For these reasons, T recommend that the present controversy be determined Uy ref�rence to the local tranchise. 0 � I �,: i Memorandum _ Page eleven 0 0 V . NIN�Ti' P�RCENT RUL� 47 C.F.R. Section 76.225(d) 16. FCC RulES. Section 76.2�5(d) of the FCC's rules regarding subscription cabl.ecasting provides as follows: Cable television system operators or channel lessees engaging in origination or access cablec��sting oper- ations for which a per-program or per-channel charge is made shall comply with the following requirements: ... (d) Not more than ninety (90) percent o.f the total cablecast pr_ogranuning hours shall consist of feature films and sports events combined. The pE�rcentage calculations may be made on a yearly bas:is, but absent a show�ng of r�ood cause� the perc�ntage of such prograrruning hours may not exceed ninety-five (95) percent of the to�al: cablecast programming hours in any calendar month. This rule prohibits s�abscription operations from devoting more than 90 � af their subscription programming 1-iours to feature films . and sports combined. Tt is designed to encourage diverseF � different and innovative programming. ' �I i If 50 hours of movies are presented .each morrth or� Cinema III, Section 76.225(d) requires the company to show a minimum of 2.5 hours of non-film, non-sports grogramsr and, on a yearly basis, an average of 5 hours per month of non-film, non-sports programs.

He added this was intended to bring this into accordance with state statutes. Mr. Brennen stated he felt the word "procedures" would be better than "rules". The Gommission agreed. Section 5.08 -- INITIATIVE BALLOTS Mr. Ash stated it was the position of the committee that the ,, City Council should be responsib?e to resolve the inconsistencies in case of i_ncorsistency Uetween two or more initiative ordinances approved Uy the electors. , Mr. Bjerke:�ett stated if this was not satisfactory, the petition route was still open. The change reads as follows: In case of znconsisrency between two or more initiative ordinances approved by the electors, the ordinances shall not go into effect until the City Council has had 60 davs to resolve the inconsistencies.

Sheridan stated it was the positian o.f the committee that the City Councii leave these sections as they are presently written. He added the city has not bee:� able to obtain the necessary figures.from the county in time. Therefore, they have had to table the item of f:he budget. Ms. Knoff asked Mr. Sheridan whether this was a legitimate argument. He stated this was a valid argument. Mr. Ash stated the City Council is not acting by the Charter. He stated the buclget �s a valid piece of information which the people need to make decision,s in an election ynar. He felt this could be a very key political issue. He added he would like to think about this matter for awhile to `onsider the issues. Ms, Knoff suggested putting this issue before the electors. She added the Commissior�ers could give tY:is issue a lot of public relatians. Mr. Sheridan suggested adding a provisi.on rE.qu.iring the county auditor to have such inf�rmation available at an earlier date. Mr_. Crowder felt the city should justify or detail any increase in budget. Mr. Ash stated his main concern was t�.hat a budget exists at the first City Council meeting in August; and a1�o that i.he Council proceeds to discuss the budget at t.iat m.eeting. fie suggested if a budget is not submitted at fhat meetina, th� C:�ty Council would not get paid.
