RESIDENTS REQUESTS AND COMMENTS FROM THE FLOOR Bill Frits, 8072 Long Lake Road, stated that he had read in yesterday's paper a story about an elderly northeast Minneapolis man who had been stabbed to death in his home. Mr. Frits contends that the same thing happened in Mounds View, but nothing had been said. Mr. Frits stated that the Focus Newspaper reported that on October 14, 1992, an elderly Mounds View man was tied up in his home and it took him 14 hours to get loose, he was threatened with a shotgun and shots were fired in his home, he has spent two weeks in-the hospital and now resides in a nursing home unable to stand up. Mr. Frits wanted to know who makes the decisions not to extradite the persons who committed this crime. Mr. Frits then referred to an article in the newspaper quoting Samantha Orduno, City Administrator, as saying Mounds View uses its own prosecutors, not those from .Ramsey County. Mr. Frits stated that Mounds View hires a lawyer for $50.00 per hour and that is why •we get a lawyer that doesn't prosecute. Mr. Frits wanted to know who makes Mounds View City Council ~egular Meeting Page Three April 26, 1.993 the decision to release the information to the papers. Mr. Frits stated that perhaps the newspaper did not print the article correct or it was given to them wrong. Mr. Frits stated that the newspaper article reported the date wrong of the incident incorrectly. Mr. Frits stated that it could not have happened on October 14 because Mr. Frits stated that he knew where the gentlemen's car was on November 14 and the whereabouts of the gentleman on that date. Mr. Frits stated that the Focus had done an article on this situation, but why wasn't there any information in the Bulletin, the official newspaper or in the Minneapolis or St. Paul paper. Why didn't this make the news? The people in Mounds View need to be informed as to what is going on in the community. Mr. Frits then stated that on the outside sign it reads, "Just Where Is Mounds View Going". Mr. Frits stated that this visioning process is a way to get input from the citizens. Mr. Frits stated that he received a nice brochure in the mail stating that the City was going to set up seven or eight task forces to see what the people in Mounds View want for the future of their community. Mr. Frits stated that the City of Mounds View has spent approximately $8,000 on professional surveys. Mr. Frits wanted to know how the City of Mounds View can trust the residents of Mounds View to come up ith what Mounds View wants for the future, when they apparently had no rust in the professional people they hired to conduct the surveys. Mr. Frits wanted to know how much money it takes to see what the people of Mounds View want. Mr. Frits stated that the people of Mounds View have stated what they want for the City, but the Council doesn't listen. Mr. Frits stated that one year ago he asked the City Council `if there would be a hearing on the sidewalk on Long Lake Road and Mr. Minetor stated that if the residents weren't paying for it, a public hearing need not be held. Mayor Linke commented on the items that Mr. Frits had brought up. Linke stated that Samantha Orduno would find out about the decision made to not to extradite regarding the elderly gentlemen. Linke further stated that Dick Meyers, a former City attorney, charged the City $50.00 per hour and that his protige, Mark Karney, still charges the City $50.00. The reason the price is low is that Mounds View was one of the first cities that Mr. Meyers practiced in. Linke stated that there had been talk about raising the fees, but nothing has come forward. Mayor Linke stated that there was a hearing on Long Lake Road and that residents were encouraged to meet individually with Mr. Minetor and his staff if there were concerns about the sidewalk. Mr. Frits indicated that there was a public hearing on Long Lake Road, but not on the sidewalk. Mr. Frits said he came before the Council at a Regular Council Meeting and asked if there was going to be a hearing on the ~idewalks for Long Lake Road and that Councilmember Wuori commented that Mounds View City Council Page Four ~egular Meeting April 26, 1993 there was no reason to object to the sidewalks as the citizens/residents didn't have to pay for them. Mayor Linke addressed the .statement regarding Samantha Orduno's report on .the legislation taking away the prosecutions from the City of Mounds View and stated that the City Council was deathly against losing this right at that time and also feels the same way presently. Mayor Linke stated that Mr. Frits owes Mr. Karney an apology because Mr. Karney does prosecute several persons for the City of Mounds View. Mr. Frits asked why there is no report of prosecutions in the paper. Mr. Frits further stated that if Mr. Karney is prosecuting and giving that .information to the papers, then he said he owes Mr. Karney, the County and the Police Department an apology. Is it the paper that is not printing the information? Mr. Frits stated that the citizens of Mounds View need to know what is going on. Mr. Frits stated that he is not a mushroom to be kept in the dark and fed horse manure. Mayor Linke stated that the prosecutions are listed in the St. Paul paper. Mayor Linke explained that the prosecutions are taken by the .newspapers from the court docket. ~ir. Frits stated that the Bulletin is the official paper and the City should be on them to print the information in the Bulletin as the City does pay a significant amount of money to print legals and other notices. Councilmember Rickaby stated that the crime committed was probably a felony and that our prosecutors handle misdemeanors and the County prosecutors would handle felonies. Councilmember Quick stated that if this case is a County case then Mr. Frits should call his next door neighbor as his neighbor was the County Commissioner at the time of the crime. Mr. Frits asked why the two perpetrators are not being extradited for this crime and are incarcerated in Georgia. Samantha Orduno, City Administrator, suggested that Mr. Frits call Ramsey County regarding this issue. Alice Frits, 8072 Long Lake Road, asked how much money the Contingency Fund started out with and how much is left in this fund at the present time. Frits stated that the City is taking $40,000 per month out of this fund.. Samantha Orduno,.City Administrator, stated that only $50,000 per year is put into the Contingency Fund. Orduno invited Ms. Frits to visit the City Hall offices and examine her records regarding the establishment of ~:ontingency Funds in other cities. Mounds View City Council Page Five ~egular Meeting April 26, 1993 Alice Frits stated that the Council is always taking .money from Contingecy - thousands of dollars. Ms. Frits asked why the City needed a franchise fee if there is a never ending amount in the Contingency Fund. Samantha Orduno, City Administrator, invited Ms. Frits to come to City Hall and look at the records of the withdrawals of funds from the Contingency Fund and the dates these withdrawals occurred. Jerry Koenker, 2317 Hillview Road, asked the location of the proposed golf course and asked if it would be public or private. Samantha Orduno, City Administrator, responded that it is just north of the freeway and very close to where the old speedway was previously located and that it would be a municipal golf course. Orduno asked Mr. Koenker if he would like to be on the mailing list for meeting notices of the Golf Course Task Force. Orduno indicated that, after the meeting, if he were interested he should leave his name and address with the Recording Secretary. CONSENT AGENDA Samantha Orduno, City Administrator, read the Consent Agenda. ~ayor Linke asked if there were any items the Council desired removed from the Consent Agenda. Orduno asked that Item A. be removed from the Consent Agenda. MOTIONjSECOND: Quick/Rickaby to adopt the Consent Agenda minus Item A. VOTE: 5 ayes 0 nays Motion Carried Orduno reviewed Item A, Declare the Puppet Wagon Truck and Drill Truck as Surplus Equipment and Approval to Dispose of at a Salvage Yard. Orduno reported that Mike Ulrich, Public Works Supervisor, brought to her attention that there was a 1990 Chevrolet Caprice, old squad car, that should either be auctioned off or sold to Woodside Motors. The maximum amount the City could receive for this car is approximately $2,000. Councilmember Rickaby stated that the wording would have to be changed regarding this item. MOTION,.,JSECOND: Rickaby/Wuori to Declare "Puppet Wagon" truck and Drill truck and 1990 Chevrolet Caprice as Surplus Equipment and Approve Disposal at a Salvage Yard of the "Puppet Wagon" truck and Drill truck and Approve 1990 Chevrolet to be Auctioned or Sold to . Woodside Motors 5 ayes 0 nays .Motion Carried Mounds View City Council Page Six ~egular Meeting April 26, 1993 COUNCIL BUSINESS: A. Ric Minetor, Director of Public Works/City Engineer, reviewed Staff Report No. 93-481C regarding an Ordinance Restricting Parking on Certain City Streets. Minetor presented information and a petition from residents at the April 5 Work SeSSion requesting No Parking between the hours of 9:00 p.m. and 2:00 a.m. on Clearview Avenue between Irondale Road and Edgewood Drive. Minetor stated that streets in this area previously were established as No Parking between 9:00 p.m. and 2:00 a.m. through a Council motion. Minetor stated that an ordinance would be more appropriate and, therefore, introduced Ordinance No. 526 - An Ordinance Restricting Parking on a Portion of Edgewood Drive, Greenfield Avenue, O'Connell Drive, and Clearview Avenue. Sue Linke, 2427 Clearview, that the parking bands really a nightmare. Ms. Linke stated that she is often awakened at 1:15 a.m. when the bar closes. Ms. Linke stated that she only has room for two cars in her driveway but has a large family who likes to visit and Ms. Linke also stated that she babysits so that also causes parking problems for her. Ms. Linke stated that her relatives are skeptical of the parking ban and, therefore, do not stay long when they visit. Ms. Linke stated that she respects the opinions of her neighbors, but would like to see some other means of parking restriction, i.e., one hour parking or parking permit of some type. Ms. Linke encouraged the City to talk to the bar owner and perhaps he could hire a shuttle or purchase some other property to control the parking situation. Mayor Linke stated that the City has been working with the bar owner and that he is trying to purchase additional land. Mayor Linke further stated that Ms. Linke could call the police department and let them know that cars will be parked on the street because unexpected company arrived. Mayor Linke explained that a person doesn't have to notify the police department days ahead, but at the time the company arrives. Ms. Linke stated that she doesn't think that she should have to do this. Ms. Linke stated that an acquaintance of hers owned a bingo parlor close to a bar and a similar problem was created. The problem was addressed by restricting parking to 15 minutes. Ms. Linke encouraged the City to continue to look for alternatives to the problem. Ric Minetor, Director of Public Works/City Engineer, stated that the final reading on this ordinance would not occur for two weeks. Mr. Minetor stated that he would discuss the situation further with the • Police Chief. Minetor explained that the problem with restricting the parking to one hour is that an officer would have to visit the car parked in violation twice, once to see it there and some time later to Mounds View City Council ~egular Meeting Page Seven April 26, 1993 .see that it was in violation. Minetor further explained that Mounds View has a limited police force and doesn't have the means to spend this kind of time checking twice on each vehicle in violation. Kris Eckstrand, 2447 Clearview, stated that it is Robert's problem and he should be doing something to alleviate the problem and not penalize the residents living in the area. Mayor Linke explained that there already is a parking ban on~this street from 2:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. Ordinance 526 would just be an extension of this time limit and ban parking from 9:00 p.m. and 2:00 p.m. on Clearview. Mayor Linke stated that there had been a parking problem and it had to be taken care of. Linke explained that people cannot be stopped from parking on the street. Robert Weiner, 2426 Clearview, stated that he is in favor of the parking ban as it will keep trash and garbage off of the street and his driveway will not be used as a cloverleaf for those trying to find parking spots at the bar. Ric Minetor read a letter from a Ms. Anderson stating that she was unable to attend the meeting but was in favor of additional parking restrictions. Councilmember Rickaby stated that the same solution should be used throughout the City if parking becomes a problem.

Severson further reported that an informational mailing was completed to call for citizen concerns regarding the carnival. This carnival would consist of 6 rides and a few small concessions. Severson reported that she had discussed the carnival location with Paul Harrington, City Planner, and that he made recommendations to rope off or barricade the carnival area for safety reasons and to not allow the running of electrical cords across drive areas. Severson further reported that Mr. Magel had meet all requirements of • the Mounds View Municipal Code including providing the City with a Certificate of Insurance, signing a contract stating that he had read Mounds View City Council ~.egular Meeting Page Eight April 26, 1993 and was aware of regulations with regard to carnivals outlined in the City Municipal Code as well as providing the City with a site plan for the carnival. The only action needed by the Council was to approve the license for the carnival. There were no citizen concerns.

Staff recommended awarding the proposal for remodeling the entry to Harmon Glass, the company with the lowest bid. Harmon Glass also proposed a Croy the floor inside the new entry way to match the existing floor. Minetor also brought up the revamping of the front walkway into City Hall, i.e. the concrete gets slippery or builds up ice patches in the winter, and also the fact that many of the ladies have told Mr. Minetor that the .concrete walkway into City Hall is very damaging to their high heel shoes.
