ADDENDUM TO THE AGENDA
Meeting No. 71 -12
I T E M
E -1* It is recommended that all bids be denied due to the fact
that the State Highway Department will not, at this time,
grant approval of our installations.
E -2 The bids are to be received this afternoon. A report will
be given at the meeting.
H -1* The Village Attorney and the Chairman of the Human Relations
Commission have worked together on a final draft of the
ordinance.
H -2 No building permits have been requested for this property.
The property division itself was for tax purposes only and
did not effect the "buildableness" of the lots. When the
property was divided the Council also authorized a variance
from the area provisions of the zoning code. The staff had
recommended denial at that time based on the feeling that
there was no justification for variance from the minimum
requirement of 10,000 square feet per lot. Mrs. Sarrack
made no mention of a private covenant at the meeting nor
did staff. We did have knowledge of the covenant; however,
we felt that it was in fact private and enforceable among
the property owners. Your rules of procedure, section 5 (d),
actually provide for action to reconsider be taken "at the
meeting at which such action was taken or at the next regular
meeting of the Council ..." Section 12 provides "by 4/5
consent of all Councilmen these rules may be waived." A
motion will be in order to waive the rules and allow the
reconsideration. Staff's recommendation remains for denial
based on the Village Code and not on the private covenant.
H -3* The Great Plains Company had been requesting use of this
commercial land for multi- family purposes. The Dreyfus
Interstate Development Corporation is now making a similar
request. The Citizens Committee on Open Space and Recreation
in its Ramsey County Open Space System proposal suggests
that this property be purchased for open space purposes.
We are advised that funds are not available for the purchase
at this time. Our problem is that the plan has no legal
effect at this time relative to keeping the land available
for purchase for open space purposes. The Council is now
faced with a request for a special exception: from commercial
zoning to allow residential usage. If the request is denied,
the land remains commercially zoned and could be developed
as such. Dreyfus plans to make a formal presentation in
mid - April.
H -4* The applicants are Roger Kueffner and Lowell Vanderhoff.
The proposal is for the private operation of a solid waste
transfer station to be utilized by individuals, not
commercial haulers. The proposal calls for a location at
either 1487 Century Avenue or 2665 Highwood Avenue. The
application was made to the County, and the individuals
have since been in contact with the Village staff and have
(orally) mentioned the old Village landfill as a third
alternate. The plan was approved (without mention of which
site) by the County Solid Waste Committee subject to the
Village's approval. Ordinance No. 269 requires that persons,
firms or corporations "shall have garbage and rubbish
collected by haulers licensed by the Village of Maplewood... ";
therefore, the citizens of Maplewood would be unable to
use the facility as they are now required to utilize the
services of a licensed hauler. The Highwood site is not
properly zoned. The proposals have not been submitted to
the Metropolitan Council or the Minnesota Pollution Control
Agency for approval as required by State law. Denial is
recommended based on the fact that such a plan would encourage
the transportation of waste materials through the Village by
private individuals in violation of the Village Code. If
denial is not preferred by the Council then the matter should
be tabled and the applicants referred to the M.P.C.A. and
the Metro Council for consideration.
H -5 ** Copies of the agreement were distributed at the last
Council meeting.
H -6* The time- factors involved in the shopping center improvement
require immediate undertaking of engineering studies on
Beam Avenue. The staff recommends that H.N.T.B. be hired
to start the engineering work on the Beam Avenue improve-
ments including a study of alignment between Hazelwood and
Highway 61 and of the entire drainage from Bellaire Avenue
to Gervais Lake.
The engineering of the Maplewood Heights reservoir was
originally assigned by Council action to Howard Kuusisto.
The reservoir is now a part of the overall drainage area
proposed for study by H.N.T.B. in conjunction with Beam
Avenue. Staff recommends that the Maplewood Heights reservoir
engineering be combined with the work to be done by H.N.T.B.
H -7 ** Carried over from previous meeting.
I -1 I was asked to place this club on the agenda for the purpose
of discussing recreation in the northern part of our
community.
I -2* We have received a proper petition from the Eden Land Corporation
of Bloomington, Minnesota, requesting (1) the grading and
paving of Maryland Avenue from Lakewood to Ferndale and of
Ferndale from Geranium to Maryland, and (2) a water main on
-2-
Maryland from Lakewood to Ferndale and on Ferndale from
Geranium to Maryland. A feasibility study had been made
of a like proposal finding it not feasible. The staff
feels this finding to be still applicable.
I -3.* Mr. Swan is the owner of contiguous properties in
Maplewood and North St. Paul. Most of the property is
located in North St. Paul and he wishes to combine it as
a singly described piece of property in one community.
Staff recommends concurrence with the annexation to North
St. Paul of the property. The legal staff should be
instructed to prepare the needed resolution.
I -4 The developers of Beaver Lake Estates is requesting a variance
from our building code to allow the utilization of plastic
pipe in Phase II.
I -5* The Maplewood Jaycees have requested a carnival license for
June 17 through June 20 on the Ramsey County land south of
Aldrich Arena. The request is now under study by staff.
I -6 We have a petition to rezone the southeast corner of English
and Frost from M -2 to B -C. April 29 is suggested as a
hearing date.
I -7* The Police Department has requested that the Council consider
supporting a bill which will result in utilizing a 20 tax
on auto insurance premiums for the P.E.R.A. (Police) system.
OTHER The resolution regarding property tax reform should have
been included under H -7. A copy is enclosed.
The County Board will discuss the Goodrich Triangle Monday.
The reopening of the Village Dump for Spring Cleanup ,appears
to be out of the question with the requirements of the MPCA.

7. Legislation
a. Double Bottom Trucks
1. Manager Miller stated they have received correspondence from the
Ramsey County League of Municipalities advising us that HF655 would
permit 65 foot combinations of truck trailer, semi trailer and trail-
ers to operate on four lane highways, allowing trailers to be up to
30 feet long. In the past the League has taken opposition to double
bottom trucks, their increase size creates a possible safety hazard
on our highways. Increased inter -state travel by heavy trucks may
cause_ unjustifiable damage to our highways. For these reasons the
League will continue to resist the introduction of these trucks to
our highways.
2. Councilwoman Olson introduced the following resolution and moved
its' adoption:
71 -4- 50
RESOLUTION OPPOSING "DOUBLE- BOTTOM" TRUCKS
RESOLVED, by the Village Council of the Village of Maplewood, Minnesota,
that there is now pending before the Minnesota State Legislature certain
proposed legislation embodied in House File No. 655 which would permit
"double bottom" trucks to operate on the highways of the State of Minn-
esota; and
RESOLVED FURTHER, that the Maplewood Village Council recognizes that if
said proposed legislation were adopted it would create a safety hazard
and nuisance on the highways of this State and would cause excessive and
unjustifiable damage to said highways.
RESOLVED FURTHER, that the Maplewood Village Council hereby opposes
enactment of said proposed legislation and urges the Ramsey County
Legislative Delegation to oppose passage thereof.
