F. APPROVAL OF ACCOUNTS
1. Manager Miller stated that in 1969, the Village Council approved the purchase
of McGoffin property (Western Hills Park) in accordance with the recommendation of
the Parks and Recreation Commission. The deed for this property was never finalized,
and to do so requires the payment of $3,956.36 for assessments and $3,431.29 for
back taxes. It is recommended that these costs be paid from funds allocated for
Park and Recreation Area development at this time, in order that the deed may be
officially filed. These monies were not included in the Area Development Fund;
- 1 - 9/20
therefore this expenditure will reduce the money available for their park devel-
opment by almost $7,400.00. To do otherwise, at this time, would simply result in
higher back taxes to be paid at a later date.
2. Councilman Wiegert moved that the accounts (Part I -Fees, Services Expenses,
Check No. 5031 through Check No. 5144 - $626,796.28• Check No. 16169 through Check
No. 16190 - $1,427,484.86; Part II, Payroll -Check No. 7276 through Check No 7360-
$23,049.39) in the amount of $2,077,330.53 be paid as submitted and that the pay-
ment of $3,956.36 for the assessments and $3,431.29 for back taxes be paid to fina-
lize the purchase of the McGoffin property (Western Hills Park).
Seconded by Councilman Greavu. Ayes - all.
G. UNFINISHED BUSINESS
1. Assessment Correction
a. Manager Miller stated that in a letter to Councilman Wiegert, Attorney
Frederick P. Memmer questioned the interpretation of our assessment policies
relative to the assessment of a utility improvement to a corner lot of the
shortest side plus ten feet when the utility improvement is not installed on
both sides during the same year. He indicated that the policy has changed
since the present Village Manager and Village Engineer took office (1970 - 1971).
A review of actual implementation of assessment policies prior to 1970 by the
staff has indicated the interpretation that both the short side and the ten
feet were assessed prior to 1970, even though the utility lines were not in-
stalled or assessed at the same time. Several examples of this application
of the policy were cited. It is recommended that the action of denial taken
by the Council on the request for cancellation of the assessment be upheld.
b. The staff report was furnished to Mr. Memmer.
c. No action was taken. Previous decision remains.
2. Sign Permit - Request for Fee Cancellation (St. Paul Jaycees)
a. Manager Miller stated that on August 16, the Council approved a temporary
billboard at the Keller Golf Course which advertised a golf tournament sponsored
by the St. Paul Jaycees. The billboard was erected prior to the issuance of
any permit due to an oversight on the part of the Jaycees. A double fee was
charged. The St. Paul Jaycees are requesting a cancellation of the fee. It
is recommended that the request be denied.
b. Mr. Don Waniata, representing the St. Paul Jaycees, spoke on behalf of
their request.
c. Councilman Olmstead moved to cancel the fee for the sign permit of the St.
Paul Jaycees.
Seconded by Councilman Haugan. Ayes - all.
3. Zone Change (R -1 to LBC) - West Side of White Bear Avenue, Frost Avenue to
Larpentuer Avenue (Easement Agreements)
a. Manager Miller stated on April 19 of this year the Council acted to "invite
a proposal of the property on the west side of White Bear Avenue northerly of
- 2 - 9/20
the Kentucky Fried Chicken property, approximately 3 or 4 hundred feet for a
rezoning to LBC with easement provisions to solve the traffic problems on
White Bear Avenue in terms of limiting the access, providing optional traffic
movement within the private property ". A reciprocal easement agreement which
has been prepared by one of the persons of interest in the property has been
submitted for Council review. Manager Miller reviewed the agreement.
b. Mr. Harry Jonsson, 1717 White Bear Avenue, stated he feels the agreement
is confusing.
c. Mr. Clayton Parks, attorney representing Rehnberg Realty, reviewed the
agreement.
d. Mayor Axdahl questioned if there were any persons who wished to speak re-
garding this matter. The following were heard:
Mrs. Fred Baumeister, 1743 White Bear Avenue, commented that the whole
area should be rezoned.
Mr. Norman Anderson, 1603 Frost Avenue, questioned if Hejny Rentals would
remain if the area is rezoned to LBC. He was informed they', would.
e. Councilman Greavu moved to refer the agreement to Staff for further_ clari-
fication.
Seconded by Councilman Wiegert.
Councilman Haugan moved an amendment that when roadway was constructed, it be

5. Metro East - Resolution
a. Manager Miller stated Metro East is an organization composed of local
officials and concerned private citizens which stated purposes are:
"I. To seek out and interpret the total community interest from a multitude
of local and regional plans and programs.
2. To communicate these findings and conclusions to the membership of Metro
East.
3. To interpret findings and assist the decision - making process by providing
information to the state legislature and other decision making agencies."
Metro East is now attempting to have some impact Metropolitan Council decision
making as well as that of the state legislature. In order to do so they are
attempting to get resolutions of support from communities on the east side of
the metropolitan area. The organization has submitted a resolution which in-
dicates support of the basic precepts of Metro East and wishes to utilize this
resolution to show support of the organization. The resolution is a model only
and can be altered to meet the needs of the individual community. The proposed
resolution was reviewed by the Council at a earlier date but no decision was
made. I believe that the basic concepts of this organization are good and
would recommend the adoption of the recommend the adoption of the resolution
as proposed. A copy of a brochure indicating the urban trends as seen by that
organization is presented.
- 11 - 9/20
b. Councilman Greavu introduced the following resolution and moved its
adoption:
73 -9 -223
WHEREAS, numerous studies and surveys have been conducted which indicate that
there may be a citizen concensus as to the desired future environment of the east
metropolitan area; and
WHEREAS, there seems to be a general desire to preserve the ecology, a certain
amount of open green space, various life styles, and to properly guide and control
urban expansion within certain prescribed limits; and
WHEREAS, a precedent for containment of urban expansion within prescribed areas
already has been set in various parts of the United States; and
WHEREAS, there is no general desire to develop a sprawling, "Los Angeles" type
of urban growth throughout the entire east side; and
WHEREAS, sufficient land for urban expansion needs for the next _i30 to 50
years exists in various communities on the east side which will accept such urban
growth; and
WHEREAS, planning studies in Ramsey and Washington Counties indicate that open
green space can and should be preserved; and
WHEREAS, there seems to be a general concensus as to which broad areas should
be preserved for open space and which areas should be permitted urban density devel-
opment and expansion; and
WHEREAS, better guides and controls for both urban growth and preservation of
open space and a rural environment are needed within prescribed urban expansion
limits;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT THE VILLAGE OF MAPLEWOOD does hereby sup-
port and recommend a policy of urban growth and expansion containment and the pre-
servation of open space as a general policy for the east metropolitan area. We
hereby express our support for development of a plan for ultimate containment of
urban expansion within prescribed limits and with said limits subject to approval
of each local unit of government affected. Further, support and assistance should
be secured from the Metropolitan Council, State Planning Agency, Boundary Area
Commission, State Legislature, and others who may be able to assist in developing
a satisfactory plan and policy implementation measures and procedures. The Village
of Maplewood accepts and reserves the right to accept or reject in total or in
part the growth plan and policies to be developed and hereby approves only of the
concept that the east metropolitan area need not, and should not, be an unbroken
"sea of roofs" from downtown Saint Paul to the Saint Croix River and from Cottage
Grove to Forest Lake.
