1, Plan Review - Apartment Building - Londin Lane
a. Acting City Manager Bittner read the staff report with the recommendation of
approval of the building and site plan with the following conditions:
1. Grading and footing permit to be issued after compliance with conditions
3 through 6;.
2. The grading and drainage plan to be followed is that submitted on May 1,
1978, which encompasses the entire P.U.D. site. The plan is to be modified
to conform to the Soil Conservation Service's recommendations as follows:
a. The proposed plan calls for terracing at location No. 6 (location number
is referenced in Soil Conservation Service report). The terracing should
be more pronounced in order to reduce the grade to eliminate erosion
potential.
b. Location No. 7 to have piping and catch basin installed to safely conduct
water down slope. As an alternative, a terracing system similar to that
proposed for location 416 will suffice.
c. Recommendations of the Soil Conservation Service as to bank stabilization
are to be implemented.
It is the intent of this condition to have all properties South of the nat-
ural drainage course running East and West through the site, constructed to
final grade.
The recommendations to control the existing erosion problems on properties
to the North of the drainage course must also be implemented. This area
will not be brought to final grade until additional construction commences
in the P.U.D.

Preliminary Plat and Rezoning
South of Holloway Avenue, between Furness Street and Beebe Road
Robert T. Sinner
Simmer Addition
April 13, 1978
The applicant is requesting approval of a preliminary plat and a rezoning from R -3
to R -1 to construct six single dwelling homes.
Proposal
1. The existing parcel is approximately rectangular in shape. It has 329.46 feet
of frontage on Furness Street and 682.49 feet of frontage on the undeveloped
right -of -way for Holloway Avenue. The total area is 5.16 acres.
2. The north 33 feet of the lot would be dedicated for the future construction
of Holloway Avenue.
3. The plat would create three lots fronting on Beebe Road and three lots fronting
on Furness Street.
4. The land between would be platted as an outlot. The applicant plans to plat
this land into eight lots in the future. This would require the construction of
Holloway Avenue and an interior cul -de -sac (see enclosed plan of future platting).
Surrounding Land Uses
1. Northerly: Undeveloped right -of -way for Holloway Avenue. The property north
.of Holloway Avenue is undeveloped land in North St. Paul, zoned for apartments.
2. Easterly: Furness Street. The property on the east side of Furness Street is
developed with single dwelling homes.
3. Southerly: The property to the south is developed with the Archer Heights
and Forest Green Apartments.
4. Westerly: Beebe Road. The property west of Beebe Road is owned by the School
District and used for a playground.
Past Action
1. 3 -5 -64: The Council rezoned the subject property from F, Farm Residence to
R -3, Multiples, subject to proper approval of plans by the Building Inspector;
of all site preparation, drainage, and utilities by the City Engineer; and of
setbacks of buildings and dedication of streets, as stipulated by the Council
with the developer.'

.. .. .
ill
2. 5 -4 -72: Council gave first reading to an ordinance rezoning the property from
R -3 to R -l.
3. 6- 22 -72: Council moved to reset the date for the rezoning public hearing
to July 27, 1972.
4. 7- 20 -72: Council moved to cancel July 27, 1972 as the hearing date for the
rezoning at the southwest corner of Furness Street and Holloway Avenue and to
delay a hearing until after the rezoning moratorium expired.
5. 12 -9 -75: The Maplewood Housing and Redevelopment Authority reviewed a subsidized
apartment proposal for the subject property. The HRA moved to discourage the
proposed development in Maplewood (in accordance with action taken at the
September meeting) in as much as this abuts existing high density, low income,
236 housing. It was felt that this type of project would be undesirable as
providing too high a concentration of this type of housing in one area and in
one school area."
6. 1- 19 -76: The Planning Commission concurred with the recommendation of the Housing
and Redevelopment Authority. The Planning Commission felt that there was a need
for additional housing for the elderly and lower income individuals, but felt
that the particular area is inappropriate for such development as it presently
supports a population in excess of that recommended by the City's Comprehensive
Plan.
Public Safety Considerations
1. The eventual construction of Holloway Avenue would allow through traffic, thereby,
increasing the effectiveness of public safety services.
2. At such time as Holloway Avenue is constructed, stop signs should be placed north
and south of Holloway Avenue on Furness Street, to prevent a jogging through
movement.
Engineering Considerations
1. Sewer and water are available.
2. The proposed drainage is in general conformance with the Maplewood Drainage
Plan.
3. The Ramsey - Washington Metro Watershed Board approved the proposed plat on March 2,
1978.
4. Holloway Avenue is planned as a future minor collector.
Planning Considerations
1. The property is zoned R -3 and planned for Rm, Medium Density Residential use.
2. The proposed lots would meet or exceed minimum Code requirements for lot area
and width.
Natural Features
Natural Features are described in the enclosed report from the Soil Conservation
Service.

Analysis
This is a fairly simple plat. Our primary concerns will come with the platting of
the interior outlot. The applicant intends to escrow the funds from the sale of
lots in the first plat to finance the development of the interior outlot.
Development of the outlot as proposed would involve substantial finances. The interior
wetland would have to be filled, and a cul -de -sac with storm sewer and utilities
installed, and Holloway Avenue would have to be constructed. If these expenses
become too high, the developer could probably plat six lots onto Holloway Avenue,
thereby, reducing street, storm sewer, and utility costs. In this case, Staff would
recommend that the existing wetland be retained and dedicated to the City for a
storm water retention pond.
Recommendation
Approval of the six lot preliminary plat and rezoning subject to the following
conditions:
1. Provision of 10 foot drainage and storm sewer easements along the back lot
lines of lots 1, 2 and 3 and the common property line for lots 1 and 2.
2. Implementation of the three recommendations from the Soil Conservation Service
report of March 6, 1978.
3. Changing the street names from Beebe Street to Beebe Road, Holloway Street to
Holloway Avenue, and Furness Avenue to Furness Street.
4. Agreement to the above conditions in writing.

SOIL AND WATER CONSERVATION DISTRICTS
March 14, 1978
TO: Supervisors, Ramsey Soil and Plater Conservation District
FROM: D. M. Zwiers
SUBJECT: Proposed Simmer Development Plat near Holloway and
Furness Streets in Maplewood.
I have reviewed the attached comments by our District
Conservationist, 11r. Howard Moechnig, and concur in them.
The site appears to have some possible erosion and drainage
problems which should receive careful attention during construction.
In particular, the possible peat area should be reviewed by a Soils
Engineer to protect future owners from possible settlement problems.
Proper precautions should be taken in the high water table area so
that homeowners will not have wet basements at some future date.
Sincerely,
D. M. Zwiers, Supervisor
Ramsey Soil and hater Conservation District
UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
SOIL CONSERVATION SERVICE
. St. Paul Rd.,
March 6, 1978
TO: Supervisors, Ramsey Soil and Water Conservation District
SUBJECT: Site plan review of Simmer Development Plat for the
City of ;daplewood.
I) INTRODUCTION
-- The proposed plat is located in the IM4 SEA Section 14, T.29N.
R. 22W. between Beebe Street and Furness Street on the south side of'
Holloway Street.
This, report evaluates existing soil and water resources in
relation to the proposed plat. Suggestions are offered to minimize
possibly adverse impacts.
II) EVALUATION OF EXISTING RESOURCES
A) Soils and Topography
The soils information is intended for general planning purposes
only. For detailed information a professional soils engineer :gust be
consulted.
The two groupings discussed below are outlined on the contoured
plat map. The positive and negative aspects of each group are listed.
Area A
- This is a small inclusion in the general soil 'type of the area.
It is a very poorly drained area with water at or near the
surface all year.
This soil, in its natural state, has no positive aspects for
development.
Area B
Soils here are sandy loams formed in the sandy loam till of
glacial end moraines. This soil type is generally well drained
with moderately slow permeability. The soil on the plat may
have been disturbed during past construction operations. As
a result the soil profile may be mixed or have other material
deposited on top. This should not hinder development.
Page 2
Positive aspects
1) The seasonally high water table is below 5 feet.
2) Soil strength is fair.
3) Shrink -swell potential is low.
4) Potenital frost action is low.
Negative aspect
1) The seasonally high water table may occur at depths less
than 5 feet in lots 2,3,9, 11 and 12.
B) Wetland and Water Resources
1) Description: A small water body (.5 acre) exists on the property.
Based on the topographic plat provided, the wetland will hold water to a depth
of 3 feet, dater above 3 feet flours wesi to a storm sewer inlet on the east
side of the fill bank, for Beebe street. This storm sewer outlets inte< a
pending area on Goodrich golf course. (see map #1)
2) Function: The marsh receives water by direct overland flow from
land to the south of the plat area. 'dater also enters from the area immediately
surrounding the marsh.
The marsh is part of the watershed area for Platefield Lake. However,
it does not act as a sediment trap or nutrient filter for any flo:v which
moves directly into !.akefield Lake. It does act as a small sediment basin
and storm water storage area for the small watershed associated with it.
Its function serves to cushion the existing sewer system along Beebe Street
from storm loads and sediments.
C) Significant Vegetation
i
The southern border is wooded with elm, boxelder and poplar. A few
oak exist in the western portion with the remaining area in grass and weeds.
The water body has a small cattail fringe.
III) Critique of Proposed Plan
The proposed plat presents no serious problems. The wetland and its
watershed do not contribute any direct flow to a major water body. The flow
originating in the area is ponded on Goodrich golf course. The loss of
stormwater storage by filling the wetland on the proposed plat area will
change the flow characteristics of stormwater into the sewer system. Tk.i
effect should be evaluated. ,
On site soil erosion is not a problem now and should not be durin;
or after construction, with two exceptions. 1) Please note on map #2 the area
circled in red. If overland flow from the Archer Heights parking lot drops
down this short slope, with the regrading that is planned, gully formation
is possible before the soil becomes revegetated. 2) The flow between lots
20 and 11, 12 (see red arrows map 72) receives flow from land areas to the
south. Care during construction should be taken to avoid gully formation
Page 3
or soil washing here.
One additional point should be considered: The wetland to be filled
may contain peat soils. The extent of peat should be explored so steps to
avoid settling of the fill may be taken.
IV) RECO1, 9.AENDATIONS
1) To reduce the hazard of gully formation at the locations mentioned
above, sod or a mulch blanket and seeding should be staked on to the area
immediately after grading.
2) The area to be filled should be done in a manner that will be
stable.
3) The change in runoff characteristics should be evaluated In
relation to the storm sewer system.
Sincerely,
Howard J. Mdechnig
District Conservationist

voting on the main motion, but felt he could discuss and vote on the
proposed amendment. When the Commission discusses home occupations,
r they must be consistent. If a sign is permitted under the home occupation
ordinance and sign ordinance, the question is moot as to whether a sign
is permitted or not.
Voting on the amendment: Ayes: Commissioners Waldron and Howard;
Nays: Commissioners Barrett, Kishel, Fischer, Pellish, Prew, Ellefson,
Sherburne, Axdahl;
Amendment fails.
Commissioner Prew said he thought a home occupation is to be permitted
in a residential area only when it is not disruptive to that residential
area and does not change the nature of the residential area. He could
not see how this type of facility,with 14 children, could be operated
without some type of disruption to the neighborhood, whether it is in
the form of building fences to maintain the operation or by bringing
in help to accomplish the same thing. He said he would have to vote
against the proposal.
Votin: Ayes 8; Nays 1 (Commissioner Prew);. Abstain 1 (Commissioner Pellish)
2 B. Preliminary Plat and Rezoning (R -3 to R -1) Simmer (Holloway)
Secretary Olson said the applicant is requesting approval of a preliminary
plat and rezoning from R -3 to R -1 for property located south of Holloway,
east of Beebe and west of Furness. The applicant is requesting platting
of six residential lots, three on Beebe and three on Furness. The balance
of the property would be platted at a later time after construction of
Holloway Avenue. Staff is recommending approval of the six lot plat
subject to the conditions outlined in the report.
Robert Simmer, applicant, discussed the proposed drainage and easements
for drainage with the Commission.
Commissioner Prew asked when Holloway Avenue would be constructed.
Secretary Olson said the applicant intends to escrow the funds from the
sale of the six lots to finance the construction of Holloway Avenue.'
Commissioner Fischer said this is one area where the zoning was in conflict
with the land use designation of the Comprehensive. Plan.. The zoning from
R -3 to R -1 would make it more consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.
Commissioner Kishel moved the Plann Commission recommend to the I!
Council approval of the preliminary plat subject to the following:
1. Provision of 10 foot drainage and storm sewer easements along the back
lot lines of lots 1, 2 and 3 and the common property line for lots l and 2
2. Implementation of the three recommendations from the Soil Conservation
Service report of March 6, 1978
3. Changing the street names from Beebe Street to Beebe Road and Holloway
Street to Holloway Avenue and Furness Avenue to Furness Street.

Commissioner Fischer said during the joint session with the Council,
it was recommended the Commission assist staff as much as possible.
One possibility is each commissioner take a zoning map of their area and
compare it to the Comprehensive Plan land use recommendations and make
notes where there was obvious discrepancies.

Planning Considerations
The property is zoned R -2, Double Dwelling Residential and is planned for RL,
Low Density Residential development. The RL designation in the Comprehensive
Plan is designed to accommodate primarily single family homes, with a scattering
of two family dwellings.
IPWIVIT
.. -._
TW
Analysis
The subject property is now being used for a single family dwelling. The City
would not allow this house to be converted into a double dwelling home, since
the property does not meet the minimum area or frontage requirements for a
double dwelling. City Code requires a minimum of 12,000 square feet of area
and at least 100 feet of frontage for a corner lot before a property can be
used for a double dwelling. Approving the second reading of this ordinance
will bring the zoning of the property into conformance with what actually
can be done with the property. This will avoid misunderstandings with the
present or future owners of the subject property.
Recommendation
Approval of the proposed rezoning from R -2, Double Dwelling Residential to
R =1, Single Dwelling Residential.

that at the present time, Maplewood is authorized to issue'
up to eighteen (18) on -sale liquor licenses. This figure

\ / MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: City Manager
SUBJECT: Amendment of Platting Code.
APPLICANT: City Staff
DATE: May 15, 1978
Request
6 ff - il
Action 1Y connc.il,
City Staff is requesting that the Platting Code be amended to permit the owner-
ship division of double bungalows and to establish a minimum lot width of 80
feet for double dwelling structures.
Proposal
Section 1005.010 of the City Code contains the established lot standards for
single family detached dwelling developments as well as general lot require-
ments (see enclosed copy). It is proposed that this section be amended as
follows to include subparagraphs (10) and (11):
(10) The minimum lot dimensions on parcels designated for double dwellings
shall
be:
(aa)
80 feet wide at the established building setback line;
(bb)
12,000 square feet in area.
(11) Lot splits for double bungalows
(aa)
If the conditions below are met, a lot or lots occupied by a double
bungalow may be split along the party wall to allow for individual
ownership of each unit. The newly created lots shall, therefore, be
exempt from the minimum lot width and area requirements. The minimum
area of 12,000 square feet shall still remain.
(bb)
All of the following conditions must be met before a lot split
described in subsection 1005.010 (11) (aa) may be approved:
1. The property and structure must be able to be easily split
into two substantially equal sections.
2. The structure must meet current Building Code standards for
fire wall separation. This can be added to an existing unit.
3. Separate utility services must be provided.
4. Deed restrictions shall be recorded with the property,
requiring that the structure shall have a uniform exterior
appearance, in terms of color, design, and maintenance.
1
,, t
5. Deed restrictions shall be recorded with the property, if one
unit is burned or destroyed it shall be-reconstructed in a
uniform appearance and if both units are burned or destroyed,
minimum lot widths shall then prevail for single dwelling
homes. A double dwelling may be rebuilt meeting the original
conditions of this ordinance.
6. Any disputes be submitted to binding arbitration according
to the rules of the Minnesota Arbitration Association.
7. Any other conditions that City Council deems necessary to
assure compatibility with surrounding structures or to assure
a resonable division of property.
Past Actions
1. January 17, 1977: The Planning Commission reviewed a variance request to
divide a lot with an existing double bungalow at 1745/1747 Duluth Street.
The intent was to sell each dwelling unit and half lot for individual
ownership.
The Planning Commission recommended denial of the request as the applicant
had not submitted justification for such a material deviation from the
requirements of the R -2 District.
The request was withdrawn prior to going before the City Council.
2. December 5, 1977: The Planning Commission reviewed the subject Platting
Code hilendment proposal. The Planning Commission moved this item be tabled
pending further information from Staff.
3. February 27, 1978: The Planning Commission again reviewed the Staff
proposal and tabled action to allow Staff to prepare a revised proposal.
Analysis
The help answer the Planning Commission's questions, Staff conducted a survey
of eight surrounding communities. The action each municipality would take with
this proposal is as follows (see enclosed table for further information):
Municipalities which would permit such a St. Paul
division: North St. Paul
Shoreview
Municipalities which would not permit
such a division: Little Canada
Municipalities which do not know what Roseville
action they would take: Woodbury
Oakdale
White Bear Lake
As the enclosed table indicates, this type of property division has not been
experienced by many communities.
�a
In order to avoid the problems discussed at the February 27, 1978 Planning
Commission meeting, the proposed amendment lists a number of conditions that
must be met before a double bungalow can be split.
This amendment also proposes a minimum lot width for double bungalows. We do
not have one in our present Code. We have, therefore, been using the standard
for single family lots. Since double units use a larger portion of a lot, a
larger minimum lot width should be required than for single family homes.
This should also discourage the need for future variances caused by additions
or garages planned for two family dwellings on single family lots.
Recommendation
Approval of the proposed amendment.

SUBJECT: Street Improvements - Geam and Lydia Avenue Openings
(Agenda Item J -2)
DATE May 15, 1978
The final plans and specifications have been completed for the opening
of Beam and Lydia Avenues.
The current estimated cost of the project, including engineering,
legal and administrative cost, is $149,100.00. This figure includes
both the Beam Avenue and Lydia Avenue connections; the improvements
of Beam Avenue, east of Frederick Street; and the completion of the
paving of Furness Court. The current estimate compares with an initial
estimate done in September of 1976, prior to completion of plans of
$79,000.
The project is proposed to be financed as indicated below. The funding
proposal reflects the eligibility for State Aid funds and the water and
sewer adjustments associated with the project.
State Aid Fund $ 122,845.00
North St. Paul Slater Availability Fund $ 21,320.00
Sewer Fund $ 935.00 M �
General Obligation 2,000.00
City Project 75 -8 (Furness Court) $ 2,000.00
The Council may wish to consider the addition of a landscaping plan to '
the street improvements on Beam Avenue, east of Frederick Street. The
project will require regrading and thus the elimination of the existing ✓''
trees in that area. As rights of access to complete the project
will be required from the property owners, replacement of the trees
and shrubs removed, together with some terracing to save other plantings,
may facilitate the rights of entry. These improvements are eligible
under present rules regulating State Aid funds in that trees and
plantings may be replaced on a two - for -one basis. Replacement at that
rate would result in an additional project cost of approximately $10,000.00
The approval of the project as indicated and authorization to advertise
for bids is requested.

Dear Mr. Cass:
You requested that we review our cost estimate dated February 6, 1978
for the subject project, in light of an earlier estimate which was
substantially less and previously furnished to the Council. Our
initial estimate of $79,000 was originally transmitted to Maplewood on
September 30, 1976. Additional copies of this estimate were subsequently
forwarded to the City on May 6, 1977 without revision. Revised cost
estimates were not prepared by our firm in the interim (Sept. 1976 to
May 1977), since the City intended to complete the design and our firm
was not privy to design consideration changes. Since the design is
nearly complete, we are providing an updated cost estimate dated
February 15, 1978 and totaling $120,000.
The following paragraphs contain explanations for the differences it
costs between the September 30, 1976 and February 1.5, 1978 estimates:
1. The 1976 estimate for Beam east of Frederick is based on
a 30 -mph design speed, with a maximum cut of about 1.5
feet. Current design speed is 35 -mph and maximum cut is
about 2,5 feet.
2. The excavated area on Beam east of Frederick is often 30 -40
feet wider due to deeper cuts, resulting in considerable
increases in tree removals, sodding, topsoil and excavation.
3. Bituminous pavement removal was originally a separate item
but in the current estimate is included in Common Excavation.
The estimated unit cost for Common Excavation was increased
from $1.50 /Cu.Yd. to $2.00 /Cu.Yd, because of pavement
removal.
4. The earlier estimate assumed that substantial pavement in
the Lydia- -Ariel and Lydia- Chisholm Parkway intersections
would remain in place. Later it was determined that the

pavement should be removed. This increased the quantities
for Common Excavation and paving.
5. The original estimate assumed that disturbed areas on Lydia
and on Beam west of Frederick would be seeded. Since these
areas now have established turf, and some development has
occurred, we recommend sodding, which is reflected in the
current estimate.
The quantities for Common Excavation, Sodding and Seeding in the September
30, 1976 estimate were approximations. For the current estimate these
quantities were computed and were then increased to allow for construction
contingencies. The Common Excavation quantities were increased by 20%,
based on our experience with similar projects. Quantities for Sodding,
Fertilizer, Topsoil Borrow and Salvaged Topsoil were increased by 30% as
recommended in the Minnesota Highway Department "Technical Manual ". For
the portion of Beam Avenue east of Frederick Street, final ground contours
have not been determined, and quantities for Common Excavation, Sodding
and related items are approximations.
The updated cost estimate does not include landscaping.
Please contact our office if you have any questions or require additional
information.
Very truly yours,

MEMORANDUM
TO Mayor and City Council
FROM Michael G. Miller, City Manager
SUBJECT: Lot Divisions - 801 Century Avenue - (McGuire)
(Agenda Item J -3a)
DATE May 15, 1978
Request
The applicant is requesting a lot split to divide the existing lot into three
lots.
Proposal
1. The existing lot has 78,795 square feet or 1.81 acres with 394 feet of
frontage on Century Avenue.
2. The applicant would like to split the property into three lots with Lot A
having 130 feet of frontage on Century Avenue, Lot B having 75 feet of
frontage on Century Avenue, and Lot C having 189 feet of frontage on
Century Avenue (see enclosed drawing).
3. Lot C is developed with a single family dwelling.
4. The County is requesting the dedication of an additional 16.5 feet on Century
Avenue for future street widening. Additional right -of -way has already been
dedicated from the property to the south.
Surrounding Properties
1. The property to the east is Century Avenue. Across Century Avenue are single
family homes.
2. The property to the west is a 5.6 acre undeveloped parcel.
3. The property to the south is occupied by a single family home.
4. The property to the north is occupied by a single family farm dwelling.
Planning Considerations
1. The City's Land Use Plan designates this parcel for Low Density Residential
Used Century Avenue is planned as a minor arterial highway.
2. The property is zoned F, Farm Residence.
3. The proposed lots conform to minimum area and width r
1
Public Services
1. Water and sewer are not available to the site.
2. Century Avenue is a paved County Road, classified as a minor arterial.
The County Transportation Plan calls for a 99 foot right -of -way on Century
Avenue. The existing right -of -way is 66 feet. This means that an
additional 16.5 feet is needed on each side.
Analysis
The proposed lot split is consistent with the City's Plan and regulations. The
primary concern is to acquire the dedication of right -of -way for Century Avenue.
The dedication for Century Avenue is necessary to allow for its future widening
and to assure that new homes, if constructed on Lots A and B, will have adquate
setbacks for the anticipated future widening.
The only other concern with this split is to assure that a driveway turn - around
is provided for new homes. Century Avenue is a minor arterial and will handle
substantial volumes of traffic. Cars traveling on Century Avenue should not
have to risk the hazard of cars backing out of residential drives onto arterial
streets.
Recommendation
Approval, based on the above analysis, subject to:
l� Dedication of 16.5 feet for Century Avenue;
2.' Providing a driveway turn - around with the construction of a home on Lot A
or B;
3. Compliance with all Building and Fire Codes; and
4. Agreement to the above in writing.

MEMORANDUM
TO Mayor and City Council
FROM Michael G. Miller, City Manager
SUBJECT: Public Improvement - Hillcrest Development
(Agenda Item J -5)
DATE May 15, 1978
Hillcrestment Development has requested the City to make available
to their property, water, sanitary sewer and a storm sewer system.
The property is located between McKnight and Century as indicated
on the attached map.
The request provides no detail as to the specific improvements
necessary nor of the project the improvements will serve.
Should the Council choose to initiate a feasibility study, Staff
will work with the Developer to define the scope of the improvements.
As the project has been requested to serve a single development,
and it is unclear as to whether or not a petition representing a
substantial amount of the affected property can be filed, it is
recommended that the Developer pay for the feasibility study.
Should the project be ordered, the cost will be reimbursed and
applied to the assessments.

Development's petition for utilities for the above property.
You are correct in observing that the petition we filed
does not delineate all of the properties which might be
conceivably affected by this proposed project. However, we
do not view that as a lack of standing on the part of Hillcrest
to file the petition and initiate action by the City.
We wish to have th
the City Council asking
in accordance with your
before the City Council
which we would make the
letter.
Ls petition treated as a request "to
that they initiate the improvements,"
letter. We wish to have this brought
at the earliest possible date, at
presentation referred to in your
As you know, no official action of any kind was taken
by the City regarding the earlier,petition of Hillcrest some
years ago. At this point, Hillcrest Development feels that
it is incumbent upon the City to analyze the situation and
make a decision.
Please advise me of when this request can be brought
before the City Council.
Thank you very much.

Re: Hillcrest Development - McKnight Road Property
Dear Sir:
In the normal course of business, the petition of your client, Hillcrest
Development Company has again come to my attention.
The recent petition appears to be a re- submission of the one previously
received by the City.
The comments to the earlier submission apply to the most recent one,
namely that it has no standing due to lack of definition of the affected
properties. As presented, it is impossible to determine if 35% of the
affected property has signed the petition and therefore impossible to
determine if it is a valid petition.
I wish to point out that another avenue of approach is available to your
client, should they be unable to present a valid petition containing
signatures of property owners representing 35% of the affected front
feet.
A presentation could be made to the
initiate the improvements. Upon a
the work could be undertaken.
City Council asking that they
vote of four - fifths of the Council,
Please feel free to contact me if I may be of assistance to you.
Sincerely,
William C. Cass

Enclosed for filing is the Petition of Hillcrest Development
for a public improvement project for the property indicated,
together with a Certificate of Ownership of said property.
We request that this Petition be reviewed and submitted to
the City Council for action in accordance with your customary
procedures.
By way of background, Hillcrest Development filed an
identical petition covering this property in August, 1972-
Thereafter, the City refused to take action on said petition,
claiming that it was "premature." Your engineering staff
has said now that a new petition must be filed. It seems
clear that, since well more than five years has elapsed
since the filing of the original petition, the project can
in no sense be regarded as "premature."
During the past several years, Hillcrest Development
has been ready, willing and able to develop the subject
property. We trust that the instant refiling of.this Petition
will result in its expeditious treatment on this occasion.
Of course, Hillcrest would like to work with the City staff
regarding all aspects of this matter.
In any event, once the staff has completed its review
of the Petition, which has already been discussed at length
with the staff on numerous occasions, we expect that the
City Council will take action.
Thank you very much.

Memorandum of Understanding be approved and that the City
Manager be authorized to sign the memorandum.
