A list of the local winners is enclosed. I T E M D -1 The license of Morris Liquors at this location was revoked at the December 3 meeting; therefore, the application is for a new license. A routine police check is being made. E -1 Bids have been received for vehicles and equipment which is included in the 1971 approved budget. The low bids are as follows: Three 1/2 ton pickup trucks - White Bear Dodge ($5,475.) One 4700 ton G.V.W. 4x4 truck - Town and Country G.M.C. $3,267.) One 35,000 ton G.V.W. tilt cab chassis and cab - Midway Ford ($11,334.) One 35,000 ton G.V.W. dump truck - Midway Ford ($12,927.) Two sedans - Merit Chevrolet ($5,501.72) Two 10,000 ton G.V.W. dump trucks - White Bear Dodge ($7,760.) A detailed report with budget comparisons is enclosed. H -1 More detailed plans for this site (Southeast corner of Lower Afton and McKnight roads) have been received and reviewed. The Planning Commission recommends denial of the request due to the fact that "any surplus of earth materials on site is of such a marginal quantity that no excavation permit should be given." The staff concurs with the recommendation for the same reasons as given in the report presented on November 5. H -2 Bailey's report on alternate road locations was presented with the November 30 Planning Commission agenda packet. The Planning Commission recommends plan "alternate 7A" (see enclosed map) which includes the extension of Ripley through the project and Hill High School property to North St. Paul Road, Holloway to North St. Paul Road and Beebe Road to Holloway. The staff recommends the extension of Beebe to North St. Paul Road an,; Holloway to Beebe. It is felt that the opening of Ripley would defeat the Council's limitation on access to Furness and right -of -way through hill High School would present assessment problems. The extension of Holloway past Beebe would again present assessment problems with Hill. In addition, one -half of Beebe north of Holloway is now dedicated and would be the logical extension of the storm sewer system. It is suggested that the Council determine its choice of a street system and determine if the second phase of the Forest Green (Fred Moore) project fits the system. A staff report was issued on November 16 relative to the project which recommended approval with conditions. H -3 This ordinance was placed on first reading at the last regular meeting. I -1 The Human Rights Commission has recommended that its name be changed to Human Relations Commission. The Commission feels that the suggested name is more reflective of its duties. In addition, Commission has requested that the reconsideration by the Council of the Moose liquor license. I -2 Approval is recommended with conditions. I -3 I have received a proposed contract for the 1970 audit from the accounting firm of Johnson and De La Hunt. The charges for the service are as follows: Senior. Accountants $15. per hour Semi -- Senior Accountants 13. per hour Junior- Accountants 11. per hour Typing 5. per hour The rates are from 18% to 25% higher than last year. Due to the fact that the firm has completed two previous audits for us and is familiar with our system, I do not believe that any savings would result from a changing of firms at this time. Acceptance of the contract is recomi:;,�nded. I -4 The lot divisions include the Sarrack property on the east side of McKnight south of Case. It is proposed to divide the lot into three resulting in lots of 9500 square feet as compared to our required minimum. Denial is recommended because (1) it has been the policy of the Council to require platting of more than two lots and (2) we can see no reason, other than personal, for allowing less than our minimum area requirements. I -5 Authorization is requested to enter into an agreement with Howard, Needles, Tammen and Bergendoff for the preparation of site plans for these two recreation areas. I -6 I have received indications from the MAA that further support regarding the location of an ice arena (county) on Village property at County Road C and Cypress is desired in order to stimulate action. I plan on taking my vacation from December 21 to January 4th. Minutes of Maplewood Village Council 7:30 P.M., Thursday, December 17, 1970.

Chairman Lyman Coombs, Maplewood Planning Commission, presented the following recommendation regarding the Forest Green site plan: After reviewing the Planning Staff proposals for access to the area surrounding the Fred Moore Planned Unit Development project, Commissioner Singer moved the following motion: "The Planning Commission recommends to the Council that a total concept planning approach to the road network in this area be undertaken." "Our recommendation has been developed with th66mpJ1as s placed on ultimate throughfare planning rather than the financial impact. We realize that any road network could be built in stages and would appreciate the opportunity to advise the Council on a pro- posed staging plan," 12/17 "We would recommend on the basis of the information available that the plan shown on Alternate 7A be considered. We further recommend that further planning and engineering studies be pre- pared on this basis." Seconded by Commissioner Stolzman. Motion carried. Ayes - Commissioner Barrett, Batman, Howard, IZishal, Singer, Stolzman and Chairman Coombs. Nay - Commissioner Fischer. b. Mrs. Lorraine Fischer wished to file a minority report and read the following statement: "If the extension of Ripley Street had not been included, this would have been an unanimous recommendation. If the Ripley Street extension had been included as Stage 2 to be constructed at such time as future development on the Hill site would warrant such an extension, the report would still have been unanimous. How- ever, the majority decision to extend Ripley from Furness to Beebe Road would be in direct conflict with the Councils approval of the Fred Moore Planned Unit Development which provided quote - that the Second Stage have no access to Furness Street, - unquote. Further, this was incorporated into the minutes. To ignore this requirement could well bring legal action. To extend Ripley west from Beebe Road would bisect the Hill High School property, which is certainly not desirable from a planning view point. The question of assessment of Hill for this road would indeed be touchy, es- pecially if coupled with the argument that the road not only does not benefit the school but is detrimental to it. Further, approval of this route does not reflect the possibility of a road south from the first phase. The Council approval for the first phase of the Planned Unit Development stated; quote - That a road south to Larpenteur be constructed to handle construct- ion traffic and to provide another access - unquote. And provide another access could well mean to provide access for the occupants of Phase I. In which case, such a road might not only be desirable, but legally necessary. If such a road should prove desirable and/ or legally necessary, its location should be considered before the road or roads to handle the second phase of the project." c. At this point, Councilwoman Olson requested that the minutes of January and August (pertaining to this development) be referred to the Village Attorney for a legal interpretation of what is meant regarding the road to the south. d. Councilwoman Olson moved to table this matter to a later time on the Agenda. Seconded by Councilman Haugan. Ayes - all. - 7 - 12/17 j 3. Ordinance No. 278 (Snowmobile Regulations) Second Reading. a. Manager Miller read the proposed ordinance amending the Maple- wood Code, Chapter 1215 referring to snowmobiles. b. Residents of the Keller Lake area requested Council place ad- ditional restrictions and controls on the operation of the snow- mobiles. Mr. James Swan stated that at one time the past weekend, there were over 100 snowmobiles on Keller Lake. Most of them were going at a high rate of speed, creating hazards and preventing anyone else from enjoying activities on the lake. Mr. Doug Anderson stated that on Saturday and Sunday, the noise was so great, he could not even hear his radio. Carl Biebighauser reported that the snow- mobiles are going on his property, they do not observe the 10:00 P.M. deadline and are extremely noisy. c. Following further discussion, Council requested the staff to review the methods of measuring noise, of trying to patrol and police the areas where the snowmobiles enter the lake, and make recommendations. d. Councilman Wiegert introduced the following ordinance and moved its' adoption: Ordinance No. 278 AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE MAPLEWOOD CODE, CHAPTER 1215 REFERRING TO SNOWMOBILES. THE COUNCIL OF THE VILLAGE OF MAPLEWOOD DOES HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS: Section 1215.020, Subdivision 6 is hereby amended to read: Subd. 6. Within or across any public street or road right - of -way in Maplewood unless the operator has a valid Minnesota Motor Vehicle Operator's license, or a valid Minnesota Snow- mobile Safety Certificate for those 14 years of age or older but younger than 18 years of age, or there is a passenger on the vehicle as a rider who has either such license or certificate. Section 2 of this ordinance and Section 1215.020 further amended by adding the following subdivision which shall read as follows: Subd. 8. While under the influence of alcoholic beverages or narcotic drugs. Subd. 9. With more passengers than the designed capacity of the particular snowmobile. Subd. 3. This ordinance shall take effect upon passage and publication. - 8 - 12/17 Passed this 17th day of December, 1970 by the Council of the Village of Maplewood. Mayor Attest: Ayes - 5 Clerk Nays - 0 Seconded by Councilman Greavu. Ayes - all. I. NEW BUSINESS 1. Human Rights Commission - Name Change Request. a. Manager Miller received a request from the Human Rights Com- mission to change its name to Human Relations Commission. The Commission feels that the suggested name is more reflective of its duties. They also request the Council reconsider the action taken regarding the Moose Lodge Liquor License. b. Councilman Greavu introduced the following ordinance and moved its' adoption: (First Reading) Ordinance No. 279 Amending Ordinance Relating to Human Rights Commission (Name Change) Seconded by Councilman Wiegert. Ayes - all. c. Councilwoman Olson moved to suspend the rules and to the matter of the Moose Lodge Liquor License at the Janu meeting. Seconded by Councilman Wiegert. Ayes - all. H. UNFINISHED BUSINESS (continued) 2. Site Plan - Forest Green (continued) a. Village Attorney Lais stated he had reviewed the August, 1969 and the January, 1970 minutes regarding approval of the Fred Moore development. His interpretation would be that a roadway would be built for access to the site from the south but the wording of the condition regarding the roadway is somewhat ambiguous and is a matter of interpretation by the Council as to what their intent was. - 9 - 12/17 He further stated that this access was a condition of Phase I of the development. b. Harvey Kaplan, attorney for the developer, stated it was his understanding that the Council dial not want Phase II traffic to have access to Furness Street. A legal concern had been brought up as to restricting access to Furness Street from Phase II and thereby land locking Phase II. To eliminate that problem, consideration was given to providing some measure of access from Phase II, prior to development of that area, down to Larpent-eur Avenue. At that time, consideration had not been given to Mr. Seida':s proposal for an over all traffic development but preliminary consideration was given to avoid the land locking problem and it was his impres- sion, and the developers impression, that the specific purpose for the road to Larpenteur was to provide for Phase II access and avoid the problem of having Phase II traffic congesting Furness Street. c. Manager Miller stated the Planning Cormnission recomnen.ds plan "alternate 7A" which includes the extension. of Ripley through the project and Hill High School property to North St. Paul Road, Holloway to North St. Paul Road and Beebe Road to Holloway. The staff recom- mends „the extension of Beebe to North St. Paul Road and Holloway to Beebe. It is felt: that the opening of Ripley would defeat- the Council's limitation on access to Furness and right -of -way through Hill High School would present assessment problems. The extension of Holloway past Beebe would again present assessment problems with Hill. In addition, one -half of Beebe north of Holloway is now dedicated and would be the logical extension of the storm sewer system. It is suggested that the Council determine its choice of a street system and determine if the second phase of the Forest Green (Fred Moore) project fits the system. A.staff report was issued on November 16 relative to the project which recommended approval with conditions. Council had requested comments from Ramsey County and North Saint Paul regarding the proposed traffic pattern, but nothing in writing had been received. d. Following further discussion, Councilman Wiegert moved aHpraval of the revised concert plan. for Phase II with the staff's recommen- dations as amended: 1. 'Divide Phase 2 into 2 development stages: i (a) Designate Stage 1 as the 69 unit Southerly Portion; (b) Designate Stage 2 as <'the 123 Unit Northerly Portion; 2. Allow for Building Plan formulation and review to proceed for Stage 1 Portion subject to following conditions: (a) Council approval of detailed design plans for all neces- sary structures in Stage 1; - 10 - 12/17 (b) All construction traffic access from Larpenteur Avenue only; (c) No occupancy to any portion of Stage 1 until a hard sur- faced street is improved from Stage 1 parking areas to Lar- penteur Avenue; (d) Occupancy allowance for Stage 1 with only a Southerly exit to Larpenteur Avenue. 3. No Building plan approval will be given by the Village Council for Stage 2 until complete and improved access meeting Village Street standards is provided and extended connecting between North St. Paul Road and Larpenteur Avenue. 4. A dedication of 60 ft. of right -of -way shall be surrendered from the North end of Beebe Road to the north property line of the Phase 2 tract. This dedication shall be entirely given from the current fee title holder (Mr. Fred Moore). The alignment shall be such that it parallels the West property line of the Phase 2 tract in its entirety. The responsibility for this entire improvement as described in this #4 recom- mendation shall be borne by the developers of the tract and Mr. Fred Moore. All access to the Hill High School property shall be restricted and no access should be allowed. 5. The Village should acquire the necessary 60 ft, right of way for the length of Beebe Road and that distance North to North St. Paul limits from the tracts north property line. Improve - ment of these portions of the overall street between Lar- penteur Avenue and North St. Paul limits should be undertaken and improved by regular condemnation and assessment. 6. The site plan shall be revised to indicate the additional 30 ft, at. dedication off the West Side of the Phase 2 Tract and the structures indicated shall be so appropriately relocated to conform to this requirement. 7. All of Phase 2 shall be appropriately planned and developed with water and sewer facilities simultaneously with Stage I of Phase 2. This utility recommendation means that water and sewer shall be planned and installed to adequately serve all of Phase 2 at the same time as Stage 1 is undertaken even though Stage 2 might not be able to be allowed due to street improvement absences; 8. Stage 1 of Phase 2 shall execute physical development by build- ing permit within 9 months (September 1, 1970) or all of Phase 2 approval shall be automatically recinded by Council. 9. The developers and /or Mr. Moore shall deposit prior to issuance of occupancy permit for Phase I, Escrow Amount of $10,000.00 with the Village to have the Village Engineer perform a utility (water- sewer) study necessary for the Village to adequately service the entire Phase 2 area. The Escrow Agreement involv- ing the Village engineering studies for Phase I shall be re- solved to the Village attorney's approval. - 11 - 12/17 Seconded by Councilman Greavu.

Building Plan Review (Medical Clinic) Upper Afton Road. a. Manager Miller presented a request from Dr. Jerome Kaufer to approve building plans for a medical clinic to be erected on the northside of Upper Afton Road just west of Century Avenue. The pro- posed building would be a block building, single story, with area dimensions of 26' x 40' or 1040 square feet of floor area. b. Administrator Seida presented the staff report recommending ap- proval of the building plans with conditions. c. Dr. Jerome Kaufer, applicant, explained the specifics of the plans. Dr. Kaufer introduced Gordon Delmont, representative of Pixy -Pak Store, who stated he did not foresee any problems with Dr. Kaufer entering into an agreement to utilize the 20 ft, easement, between the proposed Medical Clinic and the store, for access drive purposes. d' Councilman Wiegert moved approval of the building plans with the following conditions: The mansard roof to be entirely around the building; accepting aluminum mansard shakes, but it is not to be considered a pre- cedent, being allowed because of the location; the break off block be of 2" depth; the rear 79 feet be grassed, subject to a landscaping plan approval by staff; obtaining a building permit within 30 days; submission of an easement agreement from Kelton Enterprises, Inc, to utilize the 20 ft, strip for access drive purposes; moving the building 2 feet west; moving the south park- ing lot 5 feet west; moving the north parking lot 10 feet north to allow backing maneuverability; a north parking lot lighting plan; and staff approval of any and all on site signing. Seconded by Councilman Haugan. Ayes - all. - 12 - 12/17 Councilwoman Olson excused herself from the meeting at 11:30 P.M. 3. Annual Audit - Contract a. Manager Miller presented a proposed contract from Johnson and DeLaHunt to conduct the 1970 audit. The rates are 18% to 25% higher. Due to the fact that the firm has completed two previous audits for the Village and is familiar with our system, the staff does not be- lieve that any savings would result from a changing of firms at this time. b. Councilman Greavu moved to authorize the Manager to a contract with the accountine firm of Johnson and DeLa Seconded by Councilman Wiegert. Ayes = all. 4. Lot Divisions a. Manager Miller stated the lot division request for the Sarrack property on the east side of McKnight Road, south of Case Avenue. It is proposed to divide the lot into 3 lots, resulting in lots of 9,500 square feet as compared to Village Code of 10,000 square feet per lot. Staff recommends denial because it has been the policy to require platting of more than two lots and because the lots do not meet the minimum square feet requirements. b. Mrs. Sarrack, owner of the property, explained why she wanted the lot divided. Her sons now live near her and she wishes her daughters to live near her also. C. Councilman Haugan moved approval of the one lot being divided into three lots because of the minor variation in the lot sizes a. because of Mrs. Sarrack's personal reasons. Seconded by Councilman Greavu. Ayes - all. d. Manager Miller presented two property divisions for approval. 1.
