A RESOLUTION RECOGNIZING THE NEED FOR UNIFORM SNOWMOBILE
REGULATIONS WITHIN THE MUNICIPALITIES OF HENNEPIN COUNTY.
WHEREAS, the operation of snowmobiles has become a
rapidly growing recreational activity throughout the State
of Minnesota; and
WHEREAS, the State Legislature in Minnesota Statutes
1967, Section 84.86, Subd. 1 has stated, in effect, that the
public policy of the State of Minnesota shall be to achieve
maximum use of snowmobiles; and
WHEREAS, the incidence of snowmobile operations has
increased substantially in urban areas of the State during
the past few years, and in particular throughout Hennepin
County; and
WHEREAS, the several municipal councils have enacted
variously, the regulatory ordinances deemed in the best
interest of their respective municipalities; and
WHEREAS, the variations among municipal ordinances
within Hennepin County are difficult if not impossible to
discover and interpret by snowmobile operators who plan(
trips crossing several municipal boundaries; and
WHEREAS, some variations may be viewed by snowmobile
operators as discriminatory in nature and thus unconstitut-
ional or unreasonable; and
WHEREAS, such claims of unreasonableness may cause the
State Legislature to pass uniform snowmobile regulations on
a state-wide basis which are adverse to the metropolitan area
municipalities, thus pre-empting the municipalities from con-
trolling their environment;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED BY THE VILLAGE COUNCIL OF THE
VILLAGE OF SPRING PARK THAT:
1. Uniformity in snowmobile regulations throughout
Hennepin County is a just and reasonable goal.
2. Qerrit D. Schmidt, Mayor, is hereby appointed as
the representative of this municipality to the Ad Hoc com-
mittee on Snowmobile Regulations of the League of Hennepin
County Municipalities for the purpose of developing a
uniform snowmobile regulation code acceptable to the muni-
cipalities of Hennepin County, and for subsequent adoption
by said municipalities as regulatory ordinances.

A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE
CONSTRUCTION OF A 52 FOOT STREET
ON THE RIGHT OF WAY OF COUNTY ROAD NO. 15
WHEREAS, the Hennepin County Highway Department has provided
plans for the construction of a 52 foot street on County
Road No. 15 from the Seton Channel to the easterly
boundary of the Village of Spring Park including the
provision of concrete paving, curbing, parking lanes,
gutters and storm drains, and
WHEREAS, the County of Hennepin has requested th-: Village to
participate in the cost of said develo,)went to the
extent stipulated in the proposed Cooperative Agreement
No. PW 32-47-69
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE VILLAGE COUNCIL OF THE
VILLAGE OF SPRING PARK, HENNEPIN COUNTY, MINNESOTA THAT:
1. The Mayor and Clerk are hereby authorized to
execute the necessary documents for and on behalf of the village
contingent upon amending plans, specifications and all other
pertinent instruments as follows:
A. Provide a by-pass across the Seton Channel in
lieu of the proposed detour through Island Park via CSAH 125.
An exhaustive study of this proposal discloses that emergency
vehicles for which Spring Park contracts with the Village of
Mound will be delayed in reaching their destination to Spring
Park thus proving detrimental to the welfare of the to )payers
of the village. The detouring of traffic in the proposed manner
will overburden an already hazardous route and cause an estimated
delay of five to ten minutes at peak periods of traffic.
Serious consideration should be given to commencing
construction of the Seton Channel bridge and the resultant by-
pass in early fall to minimize the inconvenience to boat
traffic through the channel.
Cost distribution of the by-pass to be negotiated
between the County and the Villages of Mound and Spring Park.
B. Assurance, in writing, by the County that the
Village will be saved harmless from any claim for damages, actions
\ or causes for action and from any costs or expenses of defending
the same, arising out of or by reason of inadequate performance
of catch basin 87 and accoutrements thereto.
C. Construct a catch basin at the N,E. Corner of
Interlachen Road and CSAH 15 instead of the proposed bituminous
spillway which has proven inadequate in the past.
D. Reconstruct the easterly access to the Marina
Shopping Center, opposite Station 64 + 26 to a width of forty-
eight feet.
E. Provide a parking lane on the north side from
Interlachen Road westerly to approximately Station 87 + 60.
F. Eliminate the proposed improvement on Spring Street
beyond the County Road 51 right of way.
G. Install conduit for future traffic activated control
lighting at the intersection with King's Road as discussed with
county representatives at the time of reviewing the preliminary
plans.
H. Install at the J. R. Clark Co. and the Marina
Shopping Center conduit to permit ':future installation of
manually operated pedestrian cross -walk traffic control lights.
I. Provift access to 4396 Shoreline Drive, Plat 68059,
Parcel 6000 situated on the east corner of the intersection of
King's Road and CSAH 15.
J. Paragraph 2, Resolut_.-;, 69-27, insofar as it
refers to the development of a two• `c:ne nighway, is hereby repealed.

same manner as other municipalities except to arrive
at overall county statistical basis for increased
taxation in the smaller municipalities, and

MINUTES
SPECIAL MEETING FEBRUARY 16, 1970
ROLL CALL: Schmidt, Hunt, Rockvam, Walton and Wasik
present.
Th+.s special meeting was called to hear Ray Ploetz
and Charles Carroll, attorneys pleading for the cause of
their client, Ray Borgens, despite the moratorium declared on
the issuance of dance permits on February 2.
It was pointed out that the applicant had already
contracted for musicians and that the moratorium would
impose a hardship on the applicant in view of the fact
that no notice had been given prior to the deadline set
for submission of applications. It was also stated that
if the ban on dancing for this application was not lifted they
may be compelled to seek a mandatory injunction through
the courts.
The discussion evolved to the parking situation in the
area and special police problems in the establishment.
It was the consensus of opinion that there was a lack of
commmication between the police and the operator. Mr.
Borgens also stated that he had obtained permission to use
the area in the rear of the Golden Horn Cafe for parking
an estimated twenty cars for the period of the permit.
In view of the policing problem being experienced it
was agreed at the suggestion of the applicant that two
special police officers would be assigned on the dates on
which February dances are caaducted.
The attorneys also agreed to furnish a disclaimer in
writing.
Motion by Rockvam, second by Wasik to defer the
effective date of the moratorium to March 1 and grant the
February to the applicant.

SPECIAL MEETING FEBRUARY 160 1970
ROLL CALL: Schmidt, Hunt, Walton, Wasik, (Rockvam 7:45)
This special meeting with the assessor, Lawrencd
Brakke, was called ostensibly to review and discuss pro-
cedures being used in the village for arriving at assessed
valuations of personal and real: property, particularly
since the State Commissioner of Taxation has recommended
a 60% blanket increase.
It was determined that the assessor was adhering to
procedures established by State Statute and regulatiors
of the Hennepin Coghty Assessor.
At one point in the discussion it was suggested that
representatives from the State Tax Commissioner's office
be invited to sit down with the council and assessor and
examine individual cases to determine if any inequities
exist in the appraisal of village property, as arbitrarily
arrived at by that office. It was concluded, however, that a
united county wide approach through the Hennepin County League
will probably be more beneficial. Mayor to instigate action
with the league.

r MINUTES
SPECIAL MEETING FEBRUARY 23, 1970
ROLL CALL: Schmidt, Walton, Hunt present.
This meeting was adjourned from that of February 2
to permit officials of the J. R. Clark Co. to examine and
assist in arriving at solutions to problems with which the
village and the company are mutually confronted.
Present for the company was Thomas Mullaney, president;
Fred Gratis, operations manager; John Kloster, comptroller
and Walter Graff, attorney.
Mr. Mullaney prefaced the session by stating that, he
as a new official of the company, had not the opportunity to
investigate thoroughly and arrive at solutions to the prob-
lems with which they had been confronted. Tonight he
could only speak in generalities and trust that the council
will cooperate, as is the intent of the company, to encourage
good public relations. The company has employed outside
consultants to develop overall plans for the projected
future of their operation.
IT94 I: Construction of Warehouse - Internal problems
of the company as to distribution of manufacturing within its
corporate divisions presented a problem at this time.
Original negotiations with Andor Skaret, party to vacation
proceedings for portions of Interlachen Road and Warren
Avenue, could not be feasibly developed becuase of conflict-
ing terms. As a result the company divested itself, by
sale, of a portion of the public property vacated to recover
sane of the expenses involved in the pursuit of accomplishing
the project.
Mr. Graff has subsequently found through a torrance
examiner that portions of the public streets vacated were
acquired by the village by deed and that despite the
vacation the property is still that of the villagelby fee
title. That it appeared that any public liability will be
the joint responsibility of the village and the company.
ITEK II: Off Street Parking: This is of concern to the
company and efforts will be made to solve this problem
through their consultants.
ITO III - Winter Drainage from Building on to Public
Streets. Source has been found from roof drainage and will
be corrected.
ITEM IV - Pedestrian Crossings. Conferences with
Chief of Police indicated that he could possibly persuade
the county to perpetuate the upkeep of painted crosswalks.
The chief had recommended the employment of special traffic
•
officers at closing time for the daytime shift to al-
leviate the congestion and avert accidents. An officer can
be employed at the present wage scale at $10.00 per hour. t
It was also recommended that the council adopt a "Jay
Walking Ordinance" applicable only when a uniformed officer
is on duty to assist in controlling the flagrant abusers.
The chief had also suggested that the three large
corporations in the area, Advunce Machine, J. R. Clark and
Tonka Toys, by mutual agreement, stagger their quitting
times to minimise traffic congestion on the highway.
Company agreed to conduct a survey of employees to de-
termine the number of cars merging fro® their factory
at 4:30 P.H. This to be prepared by March 18 for
presentation to the Planning Commission.
ITEM V: Orderly Outside Storage - Company concurred
in the disorderly appearance of outside storage of supplies
and materials. Agreed to take corrective action in the
spring as soon as ground will permit the use of heavy
equipment.
ITEM VI: Filling of Septic Tanks in Park Area - To
be accomplished in the spring when ground conditions will
permit.
ITEM[ VII: Pollution - A recirculating system of
coolant waters from machinery is being installed and the
effluent will no longer be discharged into West Arm Bay
in conformity with PCA regulations.
They have discontinued the burning of trash which
caused the emission of heavy ash content and malodorous
smoke from the chimney. Trash is now being hauled away
by commerfial disposers.
The company has employed the services of Konki and
Associates to solve the problem of acrid odors being ex-
hausted as solvent vapors from paint operation.
On motion by Walton, second by Hunt an extension of
time to September 1, 1970 was granted for commencement of
the warehouse construction; provided that in the interim
the village and company attorney determine the legality
of the vacation in view of the stated conditions and
provided that the J. R. Clark Co. install barricades and
signs at their expense as follows:
F�
1. Warren Avenue- at westerly terminus of vacation
a barricade across avenue and sign indicating
:CClosed to through traffic."
2. Interlachen Road and CSAH 15 sign "Closed to

PUBLIC HEARING FEBRUARY 28, 1970
9 :00 A.am
ROLL CALL: Schmidt, Hunt, Rockvam, Wasik and Walton present.
Mrs. Elizabeth Bruzek, licensee the Downbeat, and her
attorney, Raymond Ploetz, were present to show cause why the
non-ontoxicating malt beverage, on and off -sale, and the
consumption and display of intoxicating liquor (set-up)
licenses should not be suspended or revoked.
Mr. Phleger was called on to cite the laws governing
the closing hours of establishments so licensed.
Chief Wilson summarized 1969 and '70 verbal warnings given
all tavern operators in an endeavor to bring about compliance
with the spirit of the law.Zhe police logs indicated that
as recently as February 6 officer Tharalson had warned
Thous Jerdee, bartender, about closing at 1:00 A.M. That
on the night of February 14 at 1:25 A.M. Tharalson again warned
Thomas Jerdee, The Tavern was vacated, but at approximately
3:25 A.M. officers Schoenhofen and Hendricks returned to
the area on a routine check and observed pepple within the
tavern. A knocking at the locked door was responded to and
entrance gained. The blance of the chiefs testimony con-
sisted of reciting the police log, copy of which is attached.
Mr. Ploetz admitted to violation of the &pws, but
considered the situation not quite as extreme as represented
by the police reports; that Mrs. Hruzek was relatively new
in the business and was probably not familiar with the laws.
Be also claimed lack of communication between the law en-
forcement bodies of the village, at which point the Mayor
interjected the annual invitation sent to tavern operators
to attend symposiums to jointly discuss and correct problems.
Mrs. Bruzek stated that she had gone to the tavern to
work on the books and to arrange for a temporary bartender
to permit other of the employees time off to participate in a
planned snowmobile party.
Mr. Teeter stated that he had closed at 1:25 A.M. and
along with others, went to the Pizza Platter at Minnetonka
Plaza, Excelsior, to eat. ;They returned at approximately
3 :00 A.M.
The Mabtor called for further discussion from anyone
concerned. There being none and on motion by Walton,
second by Rockvam the hearing was adjourned to give the
council the opportunity to consider the facts as presented.

JUNE 49 1970
ROLL CALL: Schmidt, Hunt and Rockvam
From the County Assessors Office: Wayne Johnson , County
Assessor and Robert Martin, assistant.
For the Village: Clerk and Assessor.
No public attendance, no grievances filed.
Mr. Johnson and Mr. Martin reviewed conditions which
necessitate a demand for an across the board 40% increase in
residential property L,A. He states that the market growth is
not reflected in the 1970 taxes for the village; that a
statistical study conducted by his department was reflected in
the computerised statements presented and that this will bring. -
the assessed valuations in closer conformity with the 609E
recommendation of the State Commissioner of Taxation. The
council debated the issue and finally was told that if the
village did not undertake a reassessment on its own the county
will proceed and charge the costs incurred. At the suggestion
of the Mayor it was tentatively agreed that the council will
undertake an appraisal in an effort to determine if and where
inequities exist with the possibility of employing independent
professional appraisers for assistance.

Mr. Phleger presented an affidavit supplemental to a motion
filed with the Village Clerk at 2:50 P.M., May 26, 1970 and with
the District Court, Fourth Judicial District -•n or about the same
date, alleging damages to the plaintiffs, Richard F. Bruzek and
Elizabeth M. Bruzek, The Downbeat, stemming from the ratifi-
cation of Ordinance No. 17:03 governing dancing in the village.
The ensuing discussion encompassed the ramifications of
the case aimed at mitigating the alleged damages to the
plaintiffs and to the peace, repose and welfare of the
residents of the village.
On motion by Hunt, second by Wasik Mr. Phleger was
directed to consult with Mr. Ploetz, attorney for plaintiffs,
to determine if his clients will consent to a compromise pend-
ing litigation. Said compromise proposal to be conditioned
upon plaintiffs dismissing the damage elements of the suit, thus
leaving for trial the question of whether or not the council
acted arbitrarily and capriciously in adopting Ordinance No.
17:03, whereupon the defendants will consent to issuance of
dance permits for Friday and Saturday nights only for which
application shall be made monthly to September 1, 1970, after

REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OCTO BER 19, 1970
ROLL CALL: Hunt, Acting Mayor and Skaret.
In the absence of a quorum the meeting was adjourned to
November 2.
The Acting Mayor then explained that inasmuch as all parties
directly concerned with the parking situation at Advance Machine
Co. were represented thay would be heard in an open discussion
but that no official action could be taken.
PRESENT FOR THE AGGRIEVED: William Smith, Carl Widmer,
Mrs. Lynn Rappe, Mrs. Barney Matson, Mr. and Mrs. Harold
Tuttle.
PRESENT FOR ADVANCE MACHINE CO. Mr. Holmgren and Chris Larson.
The subject matter of the discussion closely followed the
complaints registered in the October 1 letter of Mr. Smith to
Advance Machine Co., of which a copy was forwarded to the
Village Council.
Mr. Holmgren's rejoinder stated that the company's normal
employment complement is 250 and that they had made considerable
effort to encourage pool riding among their employees. He
further stated that consideration is being given to the in-
stalltion of speed control bumps at the exit, meanwhile they
will resume the posing of a man at the exit gate morning
,40F and night commencing October 20.
Mr. Holmgren also suggested the installtion of a gate at
the west end of the parking lot to prevent prowlers and
other alleged night time annoyances. At this point the in-
accessibility of the fire hydrant was drawn into the discussion.
Mr. Smith emphasized the necessity of a privacy fence between
his property and the parking lot to minimize the glare from
night time vehicle headlights allegedly disturbing his
privacy and in pursuing his grievance commented th-X"he Will
install his own privacy4and organize the residents for
citizens' arreasts".
Chief Wilson responded to the new compalint that motorized
mini -bikes on the parking lot are illegal inasmuch as they had
to travel on a public roadway for ingress. He further reported
that no complaints had been registered with his office concerning
the alleged violations as discussed.

spokesman for°the aggrieved and asked the questions, among others,
"Why is parking permitted on property zoned residential?"; "What
•
does the council propose to do?". Mr. Smith digressed from
the subject and among other things accused councilman Hunt of
being prejudiced in favor of Advance Machine -o. as a result

Pursued further the Advance Machine Co. parking lot.
It was determined by the attorney that the part of Lot 22,
Langdon Park, acquired by Advance machine Co. is zoned
residential and he recommended that the company petition for
rezoning through regular channels.
Councilman Hunt reported that he and Mr. Bush had
observed the afternoon exiting traffic from the parking
area this date and found it moving in an orderly, cautious
manner, but qualified his observation with the possibility
r---ti
that the drivers may have exercised caution with the presence
of sentinels. He further stated that no company attendant was
seen on duty, but it evolved during the course of the
discussion that a company man had been seen from time to
time stationed in a car or truck.
Carl Widmer asked, "does the viltlage have the right to
deny access?" Attorney responded by stating he thought the

-- q
The two fire hydrants enclosed by fencing came under
discussion. That on Advance Machine property has been
extricated in accordance with recommendations of the fire
chief. That on the property of Andor Skaret was yet
presenting a fire protection problem. Mr. Skaret suggested
that the existing hydrant be left in place and a tie-in
be made to another hydrant to be located on the right of way
of the roadway. The mayor in summation recommended that
the fence be movt,� north eight feet to conform with the
ordinance move the hydrant to within the right of way
at the owner's expense inasmuch as it was originally spotted
on an easement in favor of the village and prior to the time
Mr. Skaret had acquired the property. Directed Mr. Bush
to check road width at this point to determine available
space and report at next meeting.
Directed that water at Widmer Bros., Shoreline Drive
