Members of the City Council
City of Richfield
Gentlemen:
Subject: Ordinance Amendment Regulating Bingo
'his year the state legislature passed a law which gives municipalities
much more authority over the regulation of bingo activities than did the former

opinion that it is necessary for the city to revise our ordira nce in order to
take into account the provisions of the new statute.
A copy of a proposed ordinance revision is attached for your consideration.
This item is included as a discussion item on the September 13 city council
agenda so that the council will have an opportunity to review the rather sub-
stantial changes before scheduling a first reading of the proposed ordinance.
Respectfully sub 'tted,

Subject: Discussion of. City Use of School. District Swimming Pools
At the August 23, 1976 city council meeting the city council requested that
I arrange a joint. meeting with members of the school board to discuss general
community use of school district swimming pools. The purpose of this letter is
to confirm some possible dates for such a meeting.
Because of the very serious impact which city operation of the West junior
High Pool had on the 1976 operating budget, I believe, that it is important that
the city council discuss this matter before meeting with the school board.
Therefore, this matter has been listed as a discussion item on the September 13,
1976 city council agenda.

Subject: Approval of Final Plans and Specifications and Authorization
to Advertise for Bids for Redevelopment of Fremont Park Tot Lot
This summer, city staff, park and recreation advisory commissioners and
neighbors in the vicinity of Fremont Park have held several meetings to discuss
and prepare a plan for the improvement of Fremont Park. Eased on these meetings,
final plans and specifications have been prepared; and approved by the neighbors
and the park and recreation advisory commission.
A major consideration during the preliminary planning was the funding which
might be available for the park improvements. Council members may recall that
$10, 000 of revenue sharing monies was allocated in 1973 for improvements at
Fremont Park. The park-and recreation advisory commission earlier in 1976
recommended that $10,000 for Fremont Park improvements be included in the
community development block grant application. This project was included in
the final 1976/1677 community development block grant application authorized
by the city council February 9, 1976.
The final plans and specifications do include the entire $20,000 appropriation.
Portions of the project could be completed with the existing revenues, prior to
receiving the community development grant monies. The recommended schedule
calls for construction to begin by October 1, 1976.
It is recommended that the city council take the following actions through
the attached res ilution:
1. Approve the final plans and specifications for redevelopment of the
Fremont Park Tot Lot.
2. Authorize the advertisement for bids for construction of the park
improvements .

TRAFFIC CONTROL COMMITTEE MINUTES
• August 30, 1976
The Traffic Control Committee convened at 3:00 p.m., August 30, 1976. Members
present were: P. Eberz, T. Morgan, R. Richardson, and J. Wilde. The committee
considered the following items of business:
1. 67th & 10th Avenue - J. Wilde reviewed the petition from residents in the
.vicinity of the intersection of 67th and. 10th Avenue South, who have
requested installation of a two-way stop sign at that intersection stopping
10th Avenue traffic. The representatives from the public safety department
reported that several accidents -had occurred at this intersection, and from
available information on the accident reports could possibly be attributed
to the lack of regulatory signing at the intersection. Members of the
committee also discussed the fact that there is irregular placement of
stop signs along 67th Street between Portland and Cedar Avenues, which
leads to confusion on the part of drivers on 67th Street regarding the
desired or proper traffic flow pattern. Based on this data, the committee
voted to recommend installation of the stop signs.
2. 77th & Logan Avenue - J. Wilde summarized the request for stop signs at
77th and Logan Avenue South, which was initiated by residents of that
vicinity at the time that Lindahl Olds applied for a special use permit.
The petitioners indicated a problem with traffic in that vicinity which
results from people test driving their cars on those streets. Lt. Richardson
observed that the stop signs would not deter or eliminate this problem.
Mr. Raaen and Mr. Eberz summarized the traffic information and Lt. Richardson
presented the accident history for this intersection. The committee voted
to recommend to the city council that this request for stop signs be denied,
in that none of the traffic control warrants are met.
3. 65th & 20th Avenue and 64th & 20th Avenue - The residents in the vicinity
of these intersections are requesting two-way stop signs stopping 20th Avenue
traffic at both intersections . The accident history report and the traffic
counts for this vicinity were presented by representatives of the public
safety and engineering departments. The committee review of this information
indicates that these intersections do not meet any of the criteria for installa-
tion of stop signs. The committee recommended that no stop signs be
installed at these intersections.

-2-
4. "No Parking" on 77th Street - J. Wilde reported that the committee had
received a request from one resident in the 7600 block of Morgan Avenue
South requesting that "No Parking" signs be installed on the residential
side of 77th Street between Logan and Morgan Avenue South. The committee
members observed that there does not appear to be a history of either public
works or public safety problems with the existing parking in this area. The
street is wide enough to handle existing traffic flows. There does not appear
to be justification for establishing a no parking zone for a distance of just
one block, and the committee recommended that this request be denied.
5. "Two Hour Parking" Sign Adjacent to 7645 Logan Avenue - J. Wilde reported
that this request was initiated by a businessman located at this address,
who felt that parking policies established for employee parking by other
area businesses had created a problem for customers seeking to park in
front of his business. The committee discussed this. request and concluded
that while the traffic volume and parking needs generated by the commercial
area might cause parking problems, establishing a parking restriction for only
one block will simply compound the parking problem on other streets and for
other businesses in the area. The committee voted to deny this request,
but concluded that a future item for study by the committee would be consid-
eration of a parking control zone for the streets adjacent to the entire
commercial area extending along west 77th Street. The petitioner both for
this request and the request for "No Parking" signs between Logan and Morgan
on 77th will be informed of the committee decision and advised that the
committee will in the future be studying the parking control policies for the
entire area.
6. "No Parking 8:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. School Days" Signs by Woodlake_ School -
J. Wilde reported that the request for removal of these signs was initiated by
the principal of Woodlake School. The committee concluded that with the
closing of -the school there does not appear to be a need for maintaining these
parking restrictions, and the committee recommendation to the council is that
the restrictions be removed.
The petitioners for each of these requests will be informed of the committee recommen-
dation before that recommendation is forwarded to the city council.

Subject: Richfield Lake Property Acquisition
Since early in 1.972 the city has been involved in litigation with Belle
Rutman of the `Lynd!ale. Fruit. and Vegetable Market concerning ownership of a
portion of Richfield Lake. Tn the spring of 1972 the city council agreed to a
staff proposal whereby the city would attempt to obtain rights;or purchase
lake bottom area and a portion of the shoreline being claimed by Belle Rutman.
The discussions concerning this `matter have occurred over a very extended
period of time during which I have corresponded with the city council. for the
purpose of keeping you informed on. the. status.. On April 14, 1,976, a hearing
was held on the application of Belle Rutman to register a. portion of the Rich-
field,Lake shorelinand lake bottom. As a result of our involvement in this
matter, it was possible for the city to enter into a stipulation with represent-
atives of the Rutmans whereby we obtained the option to purchase lake bottom
property which might be registered to the Rutmans. The stipulation was dated.
April 15, 1976 and the order and decree on property ownership was entered on
April 26, 1976.1
i 0%o.o
'The provisions of the stipulation are; as follows: 41,
1. The city hl s' an option. to purchase certain property shown on the
attached rap at any time for a period of seven months after the
property ownership decree was entered. (April 26, 1`976).
2. The purch se price to be paid upon the exercise of the option by
the city i $4,350. per acre or a total of $35,714 for the 8.21 acres.
3. Belle Rut an agreed that. for a period of three years from the date
of the sti "ulation she would not permit any action to fill any of
the land wIhich is included in these proceedings.
Council Letter No. 278 -2- September 13, 1976
4. The city retains storm. sewer easements and the continued right
to use and maintain these easements to provide drainage to the
lake bottom. Belle; Rutman is prevented from filling any property
in such a ?I way a s to block the flow of. water from, such storm sewer
outlets .
The city council received a report on ;this matter at the June 28, 1976
city council meeting. At that time. the 'city council referred the matter to the
planning .commission for required planning commission review of property
acquisition for _public purposes,.
The Richfield Lake property which the city has obtained in the past ha s
been used for drainage' or storm water ponding purposes The property which is
recommended for purchase at this time and shown on the attached map, would be
'required initially and primarily for drainage and park purposes. However, it
should be acquired; without any restrictions so that, it can be used forany
municipal purpose'in the future.
The acquisition of this property has been considered both by the planning
commission and the park and recreation advisory commission. Both bodies have
taken. favorable action in support of the acquisition.
It is recommended that the city council authorize the acquisition of this land
in accordance with, the option to purchase the property and that the property be
acquired for general municipal purposes which for the forseeable future, appear
to be recreational nd storm drainage. ' The cost of the property is $35,714. Tt
is proposed.that tY e city council appropriate half of the necessary funding from
the special revenue fund and the remaining balance from the sewer fund.

Subject: Request for Special Use Permit - 7521 Dupont Avenue
Mrs. Ruth',Erickson of 7517 Dupont Avenue is requesting 'a 4pecial Sp. ,
,'permit to a ow Group Family Day Care in a house located 'at 7521 Dupont
Avenue, the property adjacent to her home.
The following items are attached to this council letter and will be
referred to throughout:
1. Exhibit A -shows current zoning
2. Exhib it B - shows the current land use in the area
3. Exhib ilt C - site plan showing the applicant's property and the

4. Exhib it D - is a copy of the zoning ordinance regulations
Applicant's Pr oposal

for use as a gr .

A group family day care home can be licensed to care for up to,ten pre-school
children. The number of children for which the applicant can be licensed is
determined by the size of the home: The applicant is presently licensed as -a
provider of fa mily day care (less than five pre-school chil ren) in her own
home. She h s proposed to discontinue the family day care activity in her
home if the s; ecial use permit for the group family day care is issued.

" Council Letter! No. 276 -2- Septe mber 13, 1976
a "school" use in a'residential (R) district with the issuance of a special
use permit. The conditions governing the issuance of a special use permit
are as follows:
The council shall not grant a permit for the use unless it finds
that the operation for which a use permit is sought will not under
the circumstances of the particular .case be detrimental (1)' to the
health, safety, morals, comfort, convenience or welfare of the
persons residing or working in the neighborhood of such use, or
(2) to the public welfare or injurious to property or improvements
in the neighborhood.
Staff Review
As stated;, the applicant proposes to purchase this home and use it
for day care only. The applicant and her family would continue to reside next
door at 7517 Dupont Avenue. The house to be used for day care was constructed
in 1939, as a temporary "garage" dwelling. The house is located at the rear
of the lot and.is 20' x 24' (480 square feet), with one bedroom and no basement.
The floor plan inc u es a 14' x 14' livingroom, 9' x 9' bedroom, 9' x 9' kitchen,
and 5' x 9' bathroom. Heat is furnished by a single-space heater. The appli-
cant proposesi to use the kitchen for the meal preparation and for creative play.
The bedroom and livingroom would be used for play area •and napping. The
front yard of this property and the rear yard of the -applicant's property will
• be used for outdoor play. The applicant proposes to fence those areas which
are not now fenced.
Staff Recommendations
The applicant's, request has been reviewed, for compliance with the conditions
governing issuance of a special use permit.
This pro?,erty is zoned for single family residential use and has been used
up to the present as a single family residence. In addition, the property is a
non-conforming structure in a residential district because of its rear yard
location. If the primary use of this property is changed from a single family
hom o a group family day care center or school the basic purpose of the
residential structure is altered and increased intensity of use results. The
intensity of up e created by 10 children and two adults will accelerate the aging
and deterior0ion of the structure. The accelerated deterioration is directly
related to the overcrowded situation which would be created by a group family
day care oper?tion in this small home. When an overcrowded situation is
allowed to to the entire neighborhood can occur through
ex2st, a detriment t
the early deterioration of the house and property. While schools are an allowed
use in the R residential_ district. with a special use permit, the original intent
of the ordinance was not to allow a random distribution o Single fam fy i-I omes
• to be used fox schoo purposes.
This house is extrerre ly small (486 square feet). The State Department
of Public Welfare regulations for family day, care require .3 5 square feet of
primary space per child. ]'his space is exclusive of bathrooms and areas
Council Letter No. 276 -3 September 13, 1,976
occupied by fixed objects such as kitchen counters and appliances, etc.
Based on this requirement, the approximately.325 square feet of primary
space would allow nine.children to occupy. the structure.
In a house this size, this number of children and two adults would
create a severely overcrowded situation,. This is in direct conflict with what
many housing ;programs are trying to eliminate. In addition, this house is
not of sufficient size to allow conflicting activities, such as children
napping whilei other older children are involved in something else, to take
place at the same time. ' Sickroom areas are not provided:
This home has been inspected by the Richfield fire, health and building
departments. The following is a list of items which they would require if.
this home is to be used for day care purposes:
1. Replacement of space heater for safety and proper venting
2..Frovision of an enclosed play area out of doors
3. Provision of a thermometer for the refrigerator
4. Provision of a self-closing screen door for the front entrance
5. Painting of house where need is evident
6. Removal of dead tree in front yard
7. Mounting of utility shed on concrete slab
8. Bathroom wall covering to be removed in the areas of the sink,
lavatory and the tub/shower and replaced with waterproof gypsum
board,, and refinished.
9. Replacement of rear stoop with permanent stoop and step
10. Sink drain brought to code compliance
11. Installation of fustats in service panel
12. Removal of unused wiring
13. Grounding of electrical service and installation of ground fault
interrupter
14. Filling of well pit in front yard
It is the opinion of staff that the principle use of this home would be for
day care rather than residential purposes, and that the number of children
would create an overcrowded situation; that this use would be detrimental to
public welfare and to the health and safety_of.the children who would spend a
significant amount of their day in 'this house. Therefore, it is the recommenda-
tion of staff that this request for a special use permit be denied.
Planning Commission Recommendation
The planning commission reviewed this -request for a special use permit at
its August 24, 1976 meeting. The planning commission found that the conditions
for issuance f a special use permit were met, and recommended approval of the
special use permit, providing,all city health, sire and safety requirements are met.

Gentlemen:
Subject: Hearing On Assessment Rolls for 1975 Street Improvement
Project No. 667, Area 8 East of Lyndale Avenue, Area 12A
and 12B
September 13, 1976 has been scheduled as the hearing date on assessment rolls
for the 1975 .permanent street improvement construction project The assessment
hearing will cover the construction work performed in City Project No. 667, in Area
No.. 8, east of Lyndale Avenue and Areas 12A and B as shown on the attached map. _
Each property owner who will be assessed for this work has received two letters
from the city. The first letter requested property owners to advise the city of any
defects or problems' concerning the project of which they may be aware Each re-
sponse has been answered either through corrective work already completed or
scheduled, or throu h an explanation to the resident describing the circumstances
involved in the particular situation.
A second letter has also been sent, advising property owners of the date and
time of the assessment hearing. This letter included the amount of the assessment
and an explanation of the alternate ways by which the assessment could be paid.
A total of 588 parcels are included in the 1975 project Area 8, east of Lyndale
Avenue and Areas 12A and 12B.
The assessment rolls for this project have been calculated in accordance with
the Street Improvement Assessment policy adopted by the city council in June, 1970.
.An important element in the city wide street improvement project is the position of
the city council that the assessment policy adopted in 1970 would remain in effect
until the entire project. is completed in 1977. This means that all property owners
would receive equal treatment for assessment, using standardized criteria. The
1975 assessment rolls have been adopted based on this policy. Property owners
a Council Letter No. 274 - -2 September 13, 1976
have previously been advised of the assessment policies at public informational
meetings, public hearings, and byway of printed materials and audio-visual
information aids prepared by the city. It is recommended that, at the close of
the hearing, the city council adopt the attached resolution providing for the
adoption of the assessment rolls for the 1975 Permanent Street Improvement
Project No. 66,7 in 'Area No. 8, east of Lyndale Avenue and Areas 12, A and B.
