Councilman Ra11es suggested the entire Section 2.09 should be placed upon
the ballot, enabling the voter to fully comprehend its intent.
Councilman Backes said the amendment had been rereferred to the Charter
Commission in the past and the wording had not been changed; therefore,
he suspected the Commission is comfortable with the language. He noted
violation of the section would result in public censure as we11 as
financial penalty and should be stated upon the ballot.
The City, Attorney agreed that State Statutes authorize the Council to
determine the characterization of the amendment upon the ballot; changes
in the wording of the actual amendment must be submitted by the

The President Pro Tem explained the City Charter states the Council

parties were asked to submit letters expressing their deaire to serve.
Councilman Martin wondered if it would be appropriate for the Council to
continue with six members until the elected M�yor assumes office in
December. He believed due to the shortness of the appointment period
and the time required to become sufficiently oriented, the appointee's
familiarity with the position and term expiration would coincide.
By concensus of the Council, the City Attorney was requested to provide
an opinion on the matter to be reviewed at 6:30 p.m., Ju1y 16, 1979.

Councilman Backes said since the time this matter last came before the
Council, the company he is employed with has developed a contractual
relationship with a company.associated with the applicant. He continued
that while he is not personally affected by his employer's association nor
believed a 1ega1 conflict of interest existed, it was his judgment for
appearance sake to the public to not participate in the matter.
After a brief background explanation by the President Pro Tem, it was
moved by Councilman Meland, seconded by Councilman Elstrom, that greater
public interest would be served by designating the streets and utilities
contained within the plat public rather than private; the developer shall
construct the streets and utilities to City standards and specifications.
Kenneth Maas, representing the subdivider, stated the roads and utilities
as drawn on the plat would meet all City standards.
Councilman Martin noted that through public designation, the City would
be responsible for street maintenance and asked if the savings would be
reflected in the neighborhood association fee. Mr. Maas stated any savings
would be passed on to the association; however, there would be no savings
to the developer with either alternative.

(Councilman Backes was not present).
Fred G. Anderson Company request for preliminary

Excelsior Boulevard.
Robert Bird, property owner at 4015 Yosemite Avenue, did not believe the
proposal an appropriate transitional use between the commercial and
residential properties; he was concerned that upon expansion, the hours
of operation could be lengthened and that in the future khe proposed
zoning could permit the location of a disruptive use on the site. He also

objected to redevelopment of the site prior to resolution of the area
parking needs. He did not feel.the City had adequate information to rezone.
Councilman Martin suggested that the Har-Ned property would not be the most
appropriate site for overf low parking from the Yosemite Avenue area.
Harold Norby, President of Fr_ed G. Anderson Company, stated he had
reviewed the site on many occasions and believed the proposal an asset
to St. Louis Park. He said the f irm is very much concerned with
aesthetics and neighborhood residents. He exhibited a rendering of the
plan stating it did not include unsightly signs and would include trees.
In response to the President Pro Tem, he stated he was aware the
Council is not changing the zoning at this time, but only reviewing the
concept.
It was moved by Councilman Martin, seconned by Councilman Ralles, to
approve the preliminary general PUD plan; staff was requested to review
the setback at the rear of the building and whether a possibility
exists that with a more narrow width of the building, several parking
spaces may be available.
Councilman Backes asked how staff should respond to Councilman Martin's
motion; he b elieved perhaps there should be clarification.
The President Pro Tem stated that the developer is aware there is a
parking problem in the area.
Walter Nelson, 4027 Yosemite Avenue, asked about hours of operation
and truck noise. He believed the building would protrude into three
residential areas. He reiterated comments made in the past relative to
the existing drainage problem on Yosemite Avenue, stating the inlets on
Excelsior Boulevard cannot handle the runoff. He asked the direction of
the roof slope, if the railroad spur track would be vacated and who
would be responsible £or the area weed maintenance.
Responding to the President Pro Tem, the Planning Director stated prior
to final approval, many types of plans would be required for presentation
to the Council.
Mr. Norby explained the business would Ue �perated weekdays from
7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., never on Sunday and occasionally on Saturday

road for its use is being considered; he said the business wi1�. not be
