ADDENDUM TO THE AGENDA
Meeting No. 70 -31
I T E M
D -1
The low bid for this project was $114,281. as compared
with the estimate of $91,000. made at the time "of the
improvement hearing. This hearing was called to inform .
those involved and to determine whether the project
should be executed.
H -1
This plan was reviewed at the last meeting and referred
back to staff for study of the potential upgrading of
Holloway (see enclosed report). We have determined that
the upgrading of Holloway is not anticipated by the
county five -year plan as a county road; however, the
county would be willing to participate when the necessary
right -of -way is secured by Maplewood and North Saint Paul.
North Saint Paul officials have indicated a willingness
to cooperate in view of our efforts on 11th Avenue
(probably on the same basis).
H -2
Mr. Kuusisto will present answers to the questions raised
at the last meeting regarding the storm sewer project (69 -4)
>
in the area of McKnight Road, Beam Avenue and County Road D.
H -3
It has been determined that a public hearing is not required
in of liquor license transfers. The applicants for
the transfer are Amos Anthony Haynes (Maplewood), H. Ben
Meeks (Coon Rapids) and Robert Bertram Schmuck (St.Paul).
The Director of Public Safety has conducted the usual
record checks and has found no record of arrests for any
of the applicants. Approval of the transfer is recommended.
H -4
We have met with North Saint Paul staff and discussed the
closing of the dump. December 1, 1970 is recommended as
the closing date.
H -5
A list of the properties is enclosed. It is recommended
that only the first piece of property be released. These
are properties which are eligible for sale due to nonpayment
of taxes. The Village has the right to ask that some of
these be held for "conservation" land.
H -6
We have not received definite word that this is ready, but
are placing it on the agenda due to the nearness of the
final deadline date.
H -7
Mr. Kuusisto will present these reports. The 11th Avenue
improvements are found to be feasible. The Maryland Avenue
project is not found to be feasible at this time due to
the need for information regarding future State Highway
plans in the area.
I -1 Mrs. James Thompson (643 Ferndale) has requested that she
be placed on the agenda to inform the Council of a sewer
problem in her area.
I -2 Mr. Wicklander asked that he be placed on the agenda. He
has been discussing his problems with the staff and will,
I believe, ask the Village to take steps to maintain the
ditch. Before anything is done, it is recommended that
the Village Attorney be requested to research the legal
status of county ditches.
1 -3 Steps should now to taken to sell bonds for the 1970
improvements. The amount of the issue will be about
$1,000,000.
I -4 The Human Rights Commission recommends the reappointment
of the following members for three year terms:
Mrs. Kirsten Wold
James E. Brans.ford
B. John Broady
Charles D. Knutson
David Boerner
I have been advised of the appointment of the following
officers by the Commission:
Chairman - Clarence E. Harris
Vice Chairman - Charles E. Knutson
Secretary - Maria M. Larsen
I -5 Mr.. Kock was mistakenly assessed for 52 feet of paving
($241.80). This can be corrected by a supplemental .
assessment after a hearing. The next regular meeting is
suggested as a hearing date.
I -6 The Village has had an agreement with the Gladstone Baseball
Association allowing that organization to use and maintain
Flicek Park (Frost Avenue). This function has now been
assumed by the MAA which now wants a like agreement.
Approval of the agreement is recommended.
I -7 It is recommended that the Veterans Day holiday (November 11)
be traded for the Friday after Thanksgiving. This is
prefered by Village employees and was done last year.

Arrangements are being made for the sewer service line
on Larpenteur (Gallagher -2179 E. Larpenteur).
I have been advised that the parking restriction signs
have been reerected on the west side of i"IcKnight as per
the County's promise. These signs had been removed to
allow the apartment owners time to arrange for off-street
parking.
Oscar Londin has asked that two items be added to the
agenda. The items are:
1. House moving permit - The applicants wish to move a
home from Pacific to Sterling. The applicant meets
all of our requirements and approval is recommended.
2. Building permit (Kingsberry Homes) - We discussed
this matter in August. The building inspector had
received an application for a building permit for
the assembly of a Kingsberry Home (prefabricated)
on Barclay Street (Robert Lundgren, 2092 Barclay).
The home meets our code requirements. It will be
delivered with open walls and wiring will be installed
here. Approval of this application is recommended.

D. PUBLIC HEARINGS
1. Sanitary Sewer Improvement - Kohlman Lane
a. Mayor Axdahl convened the meeting for a public hearing on
the construction of Kohlman Lane Area northeast of Keller Parkway
by sanitary sewer mains, service connection and appurtenances,
The Clerk read the notice of hearing along with the publication
dates,
b. Consulting Engineer Kishel explained the specifics of the
proposed improvement. This is a rehearing of this project. The
low bid for this project was $125,382.00, as compared with the
estimate of $91,000.00 made at the time of the improvement hear-
ing. This hearing was called to inform the residents involved
of the increase in costs and to determine whether the project
should be constructed. Due to the increase of costs, approximately
$10.00 per assessible foot would be necessary to finance the pro-
ject instead of the previously stated $8.50 to $9.00 per front
foot. The area cost would remain the same. The service connect-
ion cost would be approximately $180.00.
c. Little Canada residents had questioned if they would be able
to hook up to the Maplewood sewer line along Beam Avenue. If
the Beam Avenue line was installed, Little Canada residents could
hook up and pay a cash connection charge.
d. Mayor Axdahl called for formal objections. The following ob-
jections were heard:
Jack Anderson, 2878 Meadowlark Lane objected to the Beam Ave-
nue extension.
Clarence Etter objected to the Beam Avenue extension.

1. Joseph Griemann, 185 O'Day, requested some action by the Village
to fill in a pond in the Battle Creek Area that was created by the
Village when they covered the exposed pipes and attempted to prevent
erosion.
Staff will investigate and if the situation requires fill, this will
be done.
2. Louis Kamrath, Jr., 2499 Ariel, stated he was a Maplewood resident
and North St. Paul was digging storm sewer on his property. He fur-
ther stated he had not been informed by North St. Paul of what was
being done. The construction being done is apparently in connection
with the 11th Avenue improvements.
Village Engineer Kuuisisto has a report on this project under Item
H - 7. This matter will be discussed in conjunction with the report.
H. UNFINISHED BUSINESS
1. Building Plan Review - Apartments (Holloway and Furness)
a. Manager Miller stated this plan was reviewed at the last meet-
ing and referred back to Staff for study of the potential upgrading
of Holloway. Staff has determined that the upgrading of Holloway
is not anticipated by the County 5 year plan as a County road;
however the County would be willing to participate when the neces-
sary right of way is secured by Maplewood and North Saint Paul.
North Saint Paul officials have indicated a willingness to co-
operate.
b. The owner of the property (southwest corner of Holloway and
Furness proposed for apartments) has requested the plan review
be tabled until the November 5, 1970 meeting. Then it could be
discussed along with the second phase of the Moore apartment de-
velopment which also affects Holloway Avenue.

2. Report - Storm Sewer Project (69 - 4)
a. Village Engineer Kuuisisto presented a report answering the
questions raised at the last meeting by Mr. Kurt Kramer regard-
ing the storm sewer project 69 -4. The report is as follows:
We have reviewed the letter of September 10, 1970, regarding the
storm sewer and ponding area project - Maplewood Project M.S.A.S.
38- 116 -02 and M.S.A.S. 38- 116 -03, Lydia Avenue. The project is
a result of several improvements that have taken place in the area
of Lydia Avenue from west of Furness easterly to the east side of
McKnight Road and the proposed improved street section of McKnight
Road from Beam northerly to Co. Rd. "D ". The curb and gutter to-
gether with surfacing was required for Lydia Avenue and the im-
provement on McKnight by the County required that drainage struct-
ures and utilities be in place prior to street construction in the
area. The County would include McKnight Road for rough grading and
a temporary surface that could be maintained providing the utilities
and storm sewer was installed, afterwhich the County would take
bids and complete the surfacing and curb and gutter. If the utilit-
ies and storm sewers were not installed, the County would not
maintain the gravel, rough graded road such as McKnight was.
Lydia from west of Furness easterly to McKnight was to be the route
for a major interceptor line to transport surface drainage south-
westerly. The pipe system would provide a stub easterly from Mc-
Knight to allow for future trunk systems to be constructed to serve
additional laterals to the trunk system. The improvement on Mc-
Knight with curb and gutter will require inlet structures and storm
sewers.
The interceptor sewer on Lydia has been connected to the lateral
system which serves Tilsen's Maplewood Heights Additions No. 3, 4
and 5, and a stub section east of McKnight on Lydia will serve
Tilsen's Maplewood Heights No. 7, by constructing a storm sewer
on the extension of Lydia easterly and would serve the east part
of Tilsen's Maplewood Heights No. 7. The west part of the Addition
would be served by the sewer on McKnight to the Lydia Avenue in-
terceptor.
The interceptor on Lydia west of Furness has a 36" stub pipe to
provide a connection to the property north of Lydia and west and
east of Furness.
The area east of McKnight is the major part of the drainage system
that will be connected to the interceptor. The total drainage
area that will ultimately be served by the trunk system was heard
at the hearing.
In the future, a trunk system will be required east of McKnight
to serve the general area west of Bellaire and south of Co. Rd.
"D" to Beam (Blackfoot).
Due to the large area to be developed in the future, and because
- 5 - 10 -15
this may not take place immediately and changing conditions,
land use, the assessments for the area may be quite different
then as now assessed and affect that area to be served at that
time. The area would also pay their share of the trunk system
which has now been installed. The method of charging using the
present method of assessing may not be adequate in the future to
provide the funds required to construct the pipe system on the
present basis with increases in construction and material costs.
The area will also require lateral systems in addition to the
trunk system and there is no guarantee that only the 2G that is
presently assessed would be the amount assessed.
This project has not been completed.
The street improvement project and utilities are being paid for
by those people directly benefited. The storm sewer project
has been paid for partly by those in the drainage area from a
point approximately 120' east of McKnight Road westerly to ap-
proximately Frederick Avenue extended and north of Beam to Co. Rd.
"D ", partly by State Aid and County, Village in general. The
balance of storm sewer project is paid for by future assessments
east of McKnight,
A trunk system has been installed to McKnight Road to serve the
drainage area and no construction east of McKnight is proposed
at this time and would be another improvement as development takes
place. A large number of laterals are completed with the except-
ion of a lateral system west of Furness to be constructed north-
easterly. Whether or not part of this area not covered by later-
als will be assessed again depends on future conditions. The
area adjacent to McKnight and south of Lydia (Tilsen's Additions)
are connected with trunks and laterals. In some areas where de-
velopments take place in the form of tract development, laterals
become part of tract. Trunk systems may be required by the large
area connected to lateral systems as required.
Ultimately the Village will participate in storm sewer and surface
drainage structures and the method and amount of assessment can
not be determined at this time.
3. Liquor License Transfer - Maplewood Wine Cellar, Inc.
a. Manager Miller presented a request to transfer the Off Sale
Liquor License for the Maplewood Wine Cellar, Inc, to the new
owners, Amos Haynes, H. Ben Meeks and Robert Schmuck. The usual
investigations have been conducted and the applicants have been
found acceptable. Approval of the transfer is recommended.
b. Councilwoman Olson introduced the following_ resolution and
moved its adoption:
70 - 10 - 159
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN, that pursuant to action taken by the
- 6 - 10 -15
Village Council of the Village of Maplewood on the 15th day of
October, 1970 a transfer of an off -sale liquor license from the
owners of the Maplewood Wine Cellar, Inc., (Clarence Hall, Charles

Seconded by Councilman Haugan. Ayes - all.
5. Non - Conservation Land Release
a. Manager Miller presented a list of properties which are
eligible for sale due to nonpayment of taxes. The Village has
the right to ask that some of these be held for "conservation"
land.
b. Councilman Haugan introduced the following resolution and
moved its adoption:
70 - 10 - 160
WHEREAS, The Board of County Commissioners of Ramsey County
by resolution dated August 10, 1970, classified as nonconservation
land, certain land lying within the limits of the Village of Maple-
wood; and
WHEREAS, A certified copy of the classification resolution
together with a list of the land classified has been submitted

in accordance with MSA, Section 282.01, sub. 1;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the classification of the
land shown on said list as nonconservation land and the sale there-
of be and hereby is approved; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Village Clerk be and hereby
is authorized to file a certified copy of this resolution in the
Office of the Land Commissioner.

antee is given at which time then will be a specific declar-
ation of time of completion for the landscaping and if there
is a failure of completion the financial guarantee will be
cashed;

c. Councilwoman Olson moved to deny the request to trade Nov-
ember 11 holiday for the Friday after Thanksgiving.
Seconded by Councilman Haugan. Ayes - all.
8. Property Division
a. Mr. Fred Gerten requested approval from the Village Council
for a variance from the Village Subdivision Ordinance so that
he may partition this 1.27 acre tract into 4 single family lots
without going through the required procedure of platting a formal
subdivision as is presently required by Village Ordinance.
b, Administrator Sieda presented the Staff report as follows:
1. Lot 2 would constitute a corner lot and would not 'there-
fore satisfy the Village minimum requirement for 100 feet
of frontage on all street sides;
2. Although Lots 3 and 4 do satisfy the lot dimensional re-
quirements of the zoning code, they would not be eligible
for building permits until the proposed road is improved to
a standard which qualifies it for acceptance for maintenance
by the Village of Maplewood according to the Village BUlding
Code.
- 12 - 10 -15
3. The applicant has not indicated or proposed any methods
or practices which indicate how, when, or with what materials
he will construct this proposed street.
4. Lot 2 would encroach 5 feet into the existing Sanitary
Sewer easement that the Village now has along the south side
of the existing property.
5. The proposed street would be a continuation of length to
an already existing dead end street which has a length of
already 1900 feet. Mere extension of an additional 280 feet
for the purpose of getting 2 more lots is considered from this
Officers point of view as undesirable and not in the interest
of the purpose clause of the Zoning and Platting Ordinance
adopted by this Village.
6. The fact that this owner now owns all the land to Gervais
Avenue causes this office to wonder about why not extending
Clarence Street all the way to Gervais and at the same time
improve Gervais so that we can eliminate the community traffic
bottle -neck that we now have. We can only conclude that this
proposed practice represents a pecking away process which
promotes uncordinated development at the expense of the public.
It should be noted that if Clarence is connected to Gervais
Avenue then the residents along Clarence all the way to County
Road C will be exposed to inflitrating industrial traffic
which would probably be employee or car traffic rather than
truck traffic going to the industrial areas immediately south
of this proposed lot division area.
c. Councilman Greavu moved to deny Mr. Gerten's request for lot
division at this time.
Seconded by Councilman Haugan. Ayes - all.
9. Authorization to Negotiate Park Site
a. Authorization is requested to procede with negotiations for
the purchase of the Demont and Flandrau property for park purposes
as per the 1970 budget.
b. Councilman Wiegert
Seconded by Councilman Greavu. Ayes - all.
10. House Moving Permit.
a. A request to move a house from St. Paul to Sterling Avenue
in Maplewood. The inspections have been made and everything
is found to be in order. All requirements of the code have been
met by the applicant.
- 13 - 10 -15
b. Councilman Greavu moved to approve the request to move a house
from St. Paul to Sterling Avenue subject to Staff approval.
Seconded by Councilman Haugan. Ayes - all.
11. Building Plans - Modular Housing.
a. Building Inspector Londin had investigated the Wick Modular
Homes and wished to inform the Council of his findings. He found
that these particular type modular housing does meet the codes.
No action is needed. Mr. Londin only wished to inform the Council.
12. Fire Station.
a. Staff presented a report regarding the possibility of Wood-
bury answering fire calls simultaneously with East County Line.
This would provide better fire protection. As a consideration
in this mutual aid proposal staff suggests the Council suspend
and cancel any future charges to Woodbury Fire Department for
our dispatching service to that department. We presently charged
them $125.00 per year.
b. Councilman Greavu moved for Staff to negotiate such an
Seconded by Councilman Haugan. Ayes - all.
13. Brookview Drive and Century Avenue
a. Manager Miller stated the site distance problem at Brookview
Drive and Century Avenue has been corrected..
b. Councilman Greavu moved that the Highway Department be thanked
for their cooperation.
Seconded by Councilman Wiegert. Ayes - all.
