Council Members:
Subject: Sale of Bonds in the Amount of $4,100,000
There is an item scheduled on the March 22, 1982 city
council agenda providing for city council consideration of a
request from the Housing and Redevelopment Authority to sell
$4.1 z:lillion in general obligation bonds. The purpose of this
bond issue would be to recover HRA costs associated with de-
velopment activities for the Lake Shore Drive condominium pro-
ject, the Lyndale Garden Center, the Richfield State Agency,
the western portion of the Godfather Block, and the three
• houses on Graham Avenue. The HRA adopted the resolution request-
ing the council to sell these bonds at their Niarch 15, 1982 meet-
ing.
Since the HRA adopted their resolution requesting sale of
these bonds, it has come to our attention that provisions of the
recently enacted tax bill may present an obstacle to the city
in seeking to market these bonds. You might recall that efforts
to sell these bonds in mid-December, 1981 failed when no bidders
were able to purchase the bonds for an interest rate of. less than
12 percent, the maximum interest rate by state law, which the city
is permitted to pay. The legislature, in the 1982 tax bill, has
revised the interest rate ceiling so that it is tied to the bond
buyers index, and essentially "floats" with the fluctuations of
the bond market. It is anticipated that the first month for which
the floating interest rate will apply will be April. However,
the legislation also contains language which provides that for
any obligation authorized by resolution prior to the first month
for which a rate is determined pursuant to that legislation, the
maximum rate shall be 12 percent per annum. The city's financial
consultants and bond attorney have advised us that, if the city
council were to take action on March 22, 1982 authorizing this
bond sale, the maximum interest rate for these bonds would be
12 percent. For this reason, it is the recommendation of the
staff that the city council take no action on this matter on
March 22. The staff will continue monitoring the status of this
legislatirn, and administrative actions taken by the State Commission E~~r
Council Letter No. 101 -2- March 22, 1982
of Finance to implement the legislation, and may wish to call
a special meeting of the city council for April 1, 1982 to en-
able council adoption of the resolution authorizing this bond
sale. It appears that council action in April will permit the
bonds to be sold subject only to the new floating interest rate.
At this time, on March 19, the Governor has not yet signed
the legislation. It is anticipated that the staff will be in a
position to provide a more complete report regarding the status
and impact of this legislation at Monday night's council meeting.

Council Members:
Agenda March 22, 1982
Subject: Alley Improvement Maintenance Projects
i
•
Resolution No. 6345, adopted by the city council on December 8,
1980, established a policy providing for the permanent .improvement
of the city's alleys by paving. This policy stipulates that the
paving of an alley will be undertaken upon request, via petition,
of the owners representing more than 50 percent of the abutting
alley footage. The alley paving projects are to be initiated on
a yearly basis, with those alleys in the city which are not
paved or scheduled to be paved being subject to special assess-
ment for the annual maintenance costs. In order to implement
the alley policy, it is necessary for the city council to initiate
a specific alley maintenance project. Th.e policy states that:
'°Al1 costs involved in maintaining an alley will be assessed against.
the property abutting the alley." In 1981 the maintenance functions-
to be covered in this assessment included such repair work as rough
grading, sweeping, cleaning of potholes and cold patching. By
council action of February, 1982, special assessments for the
costs of alley plowing are also to be made.
Community Services Department personnel estimate the annual
alley maintenance cost for the period of April 1, 1982 through
March 31, 1983, to be $39,000. This would result in an average
assessment of about $19.50 per lot, assuming a 50-foot lot, for
alley repair maintenance. Assessments will vary according to the
amount of repair work necessary on each individual alley. Alleys
which were resurfaced in 1981 or are to be resurfaced in 1982
will not be assessed for the repair-type of maintenance.
The second part of the estimated annual cost is the cost for
snowplowing. The average estimated assessment for snowplowing is
$4.10 per lot, assuming a 50-foot lot. Of course, weather con-
ditions will have a major impact on the actual assessment costs
for snowplowing. All alleys in the city are to be assessed for
snowplowing, whether permanently improved or not. Therefore, the
current maintenance costs for alleys to be assessed to abutting
property owners will be based on a per alley block calculation of
the actual cost for alley repair and a calculated shared cost of
the actual cost for snowplowing. Of the $39,000 estimated total
Council Letter No. 100
-2-

• cost for the period April 1982 through March 31, 1983, a home-
owner on a 50-foot lot adjacent to a paved alley could anticipate
an assessment for snowplowing only in the estimated amount of $4.].(rs
A homeowner on a 50-foot lot on an alley being repaired could
anticipate an assessment for snowplowing in the estimated amount
of $4.10 and an assessment for repair in the estimated amount of
$19.50, for a total assessment of $23.60. In each case, assess-
ments will vary depending on the condition of the alley, the
amount of snowfall, etc.
It is recommended that the city council adopt the attached
resolution, which proposes to specially assess for the costs of
current services provided for the alleys in Richfield, and sets
a public hearing date on this special assessment project for
April 12, 1982.

The Honorable Mayor

City of Richfield
Council P~iembers
Subject: Ordinance Amendment Relating to Sale and
Consumption of Beer in Parks. First Reading
In 1980, the City of Richfield adopted an ordinance which is
contained in the municipal code as Chapter IV, Section 4.17, sale
and consumption of beer in parks. The ordinance was adopted as a
result of the desire of the council to allow selected organizations
to have beer in the parks under special circumstances. There are
numerous conditions for this permitted activity which limits the
sale of beer and the potential for nuisance related to this sale.
The conditions are contained both in the city ordinance as well
as an accompanying resolution which the city council passed in
1981 further delinating restrictions on this activity.
Mayor Hamilton has requested that an ordinance be put together
which would further restrict consumption of beer in the parks.
The city attorney's office has drafted an ordinance amendment, a
copy of which is attached to this council letter, which would
further restrict beer in the park by amending the definition of
which organizations could apply for a permit so that only religious,
veteran, and charitable organizations whose "principal purpose and
which qualifies in all respects to the issuance of a license to
sell intoxicating liquor". Business organizations would be spec if i°
cally prohibited from applying for such a license. Additionally,
organizations would be required to have currently valid licenses
issued-by the city, authorizing the sale of on-sale liquor and
making sure that their existing dram shop and liability insurances
would cover the proposed activity in the park. The only two organ-
izations which would currently qualify under the ordinance as
amended would be the Veterans of Foreign Wars and the American
Leg ion .
Mayor Hamilton will discuss this proposed arendment at the
March 22, 1982 city council meeting.

Subject: Ordinance Amendment

Intoxicating Liquor
~~
Relating to the Licens-
of the On-Sale sale of
in Restaurants
Mayor Hamilton has requested that an item be scheduled on
the March 22, 1982 city council agenda concerning the require-
ment currently in the municipal code for square footage area.
for liquor license eligibility for restaurants. The city
attorney's office has drafted the attached ordinance amendment
for your consideration.
Currently, the municipal code requires that restaurants have
at least 7,500 square feet of space on their regular floor area
(excluding basement) in order to qualify for a liquor license
within our community. The proposed ordinance would reduce the
square footage requirement to 4,000 square feet as a require-
ment for liquor license application. In addition, the ordinance
amendment would add some language which was omitted by oversight
in a previous ordinance revision.
The chart attached to this council letter shows that the City
of Richfield has the most strict standards concerning issuance
of liquor licenses on a square footage basis of a number of
communities surveyed in the metropolitan area. The highest square
footage requirement that we could find was 5,000 square feet in
the City of Fridley. There currently are three restaurants in the
city which exceed 4,000 square feet. They are King Oscar's,
Country Kitchen and Dimitri's. Country Kitchen (3060 West 66th
Street) has 4,625; Dimitri's has 5,100 square feet, and Ding
Oscars has 4,264 square feet.
If council members would like any information concerning this i
matter prior to Monday night's raeeting, I would encourage you to
request that from me either over the weekend, or early T,londay
morning so that we can do appropriate surveys or other research. ~i

Council Letter No. 97
Agenga March 22, 19,82
The Honorable Mayor
and
Members of the City Council
City of Richfield
Council Members:
Subject: Beer in the Parks
In a letter dated February 15, 1982, the Richfield Fred
Babcock VFW Post #5555 requested the use of Augsburg Park on
July 25, 1982 for the annual picnic for Post and Auxiliary members
and their families. The grounds are proposed to be set up the
same as last year, with soda and rides for children and beer for
adults.
The Post has indicated that they would post the normal
damage deposit, leave the grounds as clean or cleaner than upon
arrival, and have a police officer on duty. Application for the
permit was made February 25, 1982, at which time the $25 permit
fee was paid. The application notes that beer would be available
from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., but would not be sold to the
anticipated 300-400 people in attendance. The beer would be
given to Post members and their guests.
According to city ordinance, the council may require, as a
condition of issuance of the permit, an indemnity bond holding
the city harmless from liability of any kind or character and
reimbursing the city for any property damage or clean-up costs.
The council may also require, in addition to or in lieu of such
bond, that the organization furnish proof of insurance adequately
covering all such actions, claims or costs, and may require that
the city be named as an additional insured. The organization does
have a valid license issued by the city for the sale of beer at a
different location. This satisfies the ordinance if the insurance
and bond required under such licenses cover the sale of beer in a
public park. The ordinance also indicates that the organization is
to execute a written agreement in form acceptable to the city,
releasing the city from any claim by the organization and holding
the city harmless from any claims by others arising cut of or
occasioned by cancellation of their permit. It is at the deter-
mination of the council whether a police officer or officers need
be in attendance at the permit site, at the expense of the
applicant, at all times and while beer is being sold.
Council Letter No. 97
March 22, 1982
• The Community Services Commission reviewed this request
at their March 9 meeting and recommends the city council approve
the VFW request. The Public Safety Department has reviewed the
application and has no objections to issuance of the permit.
Therefore, it is recommended that the city council take the
following actions:
1. Require an indemnity bond of $500 for clean-up costs
not performed by the VFW , to be refunded if not used.
2. Require that the proof of liability insurance be provided.
3. Require that the city be made an additional insured.
4. Require a written agreement releasing the city from any
claim arising out of or occasioned by cancellation of
the permit.
5. Consider that a police officer be in attendance.
6. Issue a permit with any determined conditions for beer
in Augsburg Park, 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Sunday,
July 25, 1982, as requested by the Richfield Fred Babcock
VFW Post #5555.

2. PARTIAL PREPAYMENT - kEDUCTION OF INTEREST PAYABLE
In the year of adoption, partial prepayment of an assess~•
ment in any amount not less than $100 is allowed if the
original principal amount of the assessment is $300 or
more and such partial prepayment is made within 30 days
after adoption of the assessment roll. Such partial
prepayment made will bear no interest. The unpaid
balance will be respread over the life of the adopted
roll.

Council Letter No. 92
Agenda March 22, 1982
Th.e Honorable Mayor
and
Members of the City Council
City of Richfield
Council Members:
Subject: Renewal of On-Sale Wine License, The Inn,
7640 Cedar Avenue South
The on-sale wine license currently held by The Inn is due
to expire on March 31, 1982. The required notice of hearing
with regard to the license renewal has been published with the
other on-sale wine license renewal hearings schedule for the
regular city council meeting of March 22, 1982. However, due
to the problems related to the applicant's late filing of the
license renewal application, and problems encountered by the
Public Safety Department in developing the required information
relative to the license renewal request, we have been unable
to complete the processing of the license renewal application.
Therefore, the hearing scheduled for March 22, 1982 with regard
to this matter can not be conducted on the original date scheduled.
It is recommended that the council continue the hearing
on the application for the renewal of the on-sale wine license
for the Inn, to the regular council meeting of April 26, 1982.

Office of City Manager
Council Letter No. 91
Agenda March 22, 1982
The Honorable Mayor
and
Members of the City Council
City of Richfield
Council Members:
Subject: City Facility Use Policy
For some years, the community center has operated under a
council-adopted resolution which outlined the policy and fees
for rental of the facility. Other facilities used by various
groups and organizations have had separate policies and fee
structures. To streamline the city facility use policy and
make information easier for the public, the staff has drafted
a proposed resolution which would provide a city facility use
policy not only for the community center but also for city hall,
the nature center and the golf course. This policy is very
similar to the policy used in the past at the community center,
although the fee structure has been updated to reflect current
costs for provision of these facilities to groups and organiza-
tions wishing a space to rent. The Community Services Commission
has reviewed the resolution and recommended city council approval.
It is the recommendation of the staff that the city council
approve the attached resolution with an effective date of
April 1, 1982. Copies of the previous policies are attached for
your information.
Respectfully submitted,

development plan for the properties occupied by the HUB shopping
center, Penny's Market, Snyder Drug and Summit Bank. This plan
calls for a four-phase improvement of the area. One important
aspect of the plan is the vacation of Pillsbury Avenue between 65t1~
Street and 66th Street. This vacation would not only increase the
off-street parking available in the area but would allow better
traffic. circulation and pedestrian flow between the uses in the
area. The city council passed a resolution determining that the
vacation of this portion of Pillsbury Avenue would be in the
public interest. This resolution indicated that a public hearing
on the proposed street vacation would take place upon the
occurance of any one of the following events:
1. Issuance by the City of a special use permit (pursuant
to an application anc~. the filing of a final development

In 1981 the owners of the Hub Center (United National
Corporation) and Penny's Markets petitioned for the vacation of
Pillsbury Avenue. The city council gave first reading approval
to an ordinance vacating the street on September 8, 1980 and set
a public hearing for October 13, 198. At the request of United
National Corporation, the public hearing was continued four
times, for economic reasons, and to allow additional time to
work out access agreements with the owners of the Clark Oil
Station. On May 11, 1981, when United National Corporation was
again. not ready to proceed with the vacation, the city council
closed the public hearing and discontinued the vacation procedure
and second reading of the ordinance to carry out the vacation.

Subject: Renewal of On-Sale Wine License, Pontillo's
Pizzeria, Inc., 2312 West 66th Street
The city has received an application for renewal of an on-sale
wine license from Pontillo's Pizzeria, Inc. The original wine
license for this business was granted on August 24, 1981. The
application has been submitted by Mr. Gladstone M. Stenson, Jr.,
President of the parent corporation. The application has been
referred to the Public Safety Department for investigation, which
has now been completed.
The Public Safety Department has conducted the necessary
background investigation in accordance with city ordinance code
requirements. There have been two changes in corporate officers.
Mr. Roger W. Schelper has been promoted from Corporate Secretary
to Vice-President. Mr. Patrick J. Woodring, who was formerly the
Vice-President, has been moved to Corporate Secretary. The
principal ownership remains with the President, Mr. Stenson.
During the course of the investigation it was determined that a
new Resident Manager has been named to the Richfield establishment.
The Manager is Ms. Shelly Youngkrantz. As a part of the license
renewal investigation, the required background investigation of
the new Manager was also accomplished. The investigation disclosed
no negative findings with regard to Ms. Youngkrantz' role as the
Resident Manager of the Richfield establishment.
All of the insurance and bonding requirements have been met
and are presently in force. Additionally, the Public Safety
Department has verified that all federal, state and local tax
obligations have been met.
As a part of the investigative process, the Public Safety
Department has examined the statement from the accountant for
the applicant corporation and determined the gross sales for the
12-month period ending January 31, 1982 was $552,747. Of this
amount, 95.5 percent of sales related to food and non-alcoholic
beverages. The remaining 4.5 percent of sales involved wine and
beer.
Council Letter No, 89 -2- March. 22, 1982
During the past year, there were a total of seven requests
• for Public Safety service at the establishment. Five of these
requests were for non-criminal general service calls. 'lhe
remaining two requests for service were of a criminal nature
with the applicant being the victim of a burglary on one occasion
and a vandalism on the second occasion.
Based on the information provided by the applicant, and the
information developed during the background investigation, there
appears to be no existing condition which would prohibit the
renewal of the on-sale wine license requested.

corporation continues to operate at its present location under
the same lease arrangement as in the past.
A review of the accountant's statement for the 12-month
period ending December 31, 1981 indicates a gross sales total
in the amount of $836,355. Of that amount, $693,718, or 82 percent
of ~.he total gross sales, were for food sales. The remaining
18 percent was for the total beverage sales.

Subject: Renewal of On-Sale Wine License, Miller's
Fireside Pizza, Inc., 6736 Penn Avenue South
The City has received an application for renewal of an
on-sale wine license from Miller's Fireside Pizza, Inc., and
its President, Mr. David Miller. The application has been
referred to the Public Safety Department for investiaation,
which has now been completed.
The original wine license for this business was granted on
May 12, 1980. The Public Safety Department has conducted the
necessary investigation in accordance with city ordinance code
requirements and finds no change in management or ownership since
granting the original license. All of the insurance and bonding
requirements have been met and are presently in force. Additional]..y,
the Public Safety Department has verified that all federal, state
and local tax obligations have been met.
As a part of the investigative process, the Public Safety
Department has examined the statement from the accountant for the
applicant and determined that 84 percent of the present business
income is from food sales with the balance of 16 percent of the
income from a combination of beer and wine sales.
During the past year there were only two reported Public
Safety incidents at the applicant's place of business. Both of
these incidents were for non-criminal general. service calls.
Based on the investigation conducted by the Public Safety
Department there appears to be no basis to deny the applicant's
request for license renewal. I am pleased to note that the ap-
plicant has conducted his business in an exemplary manner during
the past year and would appear to be a credit to our business
community.
