Regular Counci.. Meeting
October 21, 1991
Page 408
The applicant had asked staff to hold the
application for one meeting before presenting it
to the Council in order to give the applicant an
opportunity to meet with the neighborhood. The
applicant submitted a letter describing the
results of those meetings. The meetings were
held subsequent to the Planning Commission
meeting and the information has not been
considered by the commission.
Councilmember Vasiliou asked why the application
should not be remanded to the Planning Commission
if new information has been presentedi consistent
with Council policy.
Coordinator Dillerud stated the only new
information has received to date is the letter.
No amended plans have been submitted.
William Scott, 15720 Rockford Road, #225, stated
he has been a resident at Vicksburg Village for 1
1/2 years. He is in support of the application.
He stated that they have been restricted in
having guests come to visit because of the
inadequate parking. He stated the current
situation is a safety concern, and the problem
has become progressively worse, particularly on
weekends. There is no on -street parking in the
vicinity. Visitors have to park near CUB Foods
or several blocks away in another residential
neighborhood.
Ceuncilmesnber Zitur asked if the parking problem
could be the result of too many adults living in
some of the units.
Mr. Scott stated tht+re is restriction en the
number of adults allowed per unit, and he has no
knowledge that this is a prcL. em.
Councilmember Vasiliou asked if similar problems
are being experienced in other multiple dwelling
units.
Coordinator Dillerud stated that similar problem,
are occurring in other locations, and cited
Parkside Apartments as an example. The standard
for determining the number of required parking

stalls has changed since these developments were
built.
Grayson Smith, 15720 County Road 9, #202, agreed
with the statements made by Mr. Scott. He has
experienced the same problems due to inadequate
parking.
Lorrie Smith, 15720 County Road 9, #202, stated
the residents of the apartments need help to get
additional parking.
Pat Hall:.sey, 4065 Quantico Lane, represented the
Plymouth Creek Townhomes Association. He stated
that the development was originally built with
344 units and 564 parking spaces. This is only
1.68 spaces per unit.
He asked that the Council uphold the Planning
Commission recommendation of denial, and stated
he was disappointed with the staff finding that
the proposed Site Plan and Conditional Use Permit
amendments meet the ordinance standards and that
the proposed screening would be adequate. Since
this is a Planned Unit Development, he asked that
the Council consider the request in a more
restrictive manner. He believes the proposed
plan contains inadequate berming and screening.
Mr. Hallisey stated that at the meeting held
subsequent to the Planning Commission, the
petitioner and his representatives did not listen
to neighborhood concerns. He stated the
petitioner tried to convince the neighborhood
that their proposal was correct, rather than
considering alternatives.
He stated the Plymouth Creek Association had
suggested that the parking lot proposed on the
southeasterly edge of the site be moved to the
northerly center. The petitioner's
representatives stated it was not a convenient
location for the apartment residents. Mr.
Halliney stated that the petitioner was going to
do further architectural studies for
consideration by the Plymouth Cteek Association
for review and comment before presentation to the
Council. This was not done. Mr. Hallisey stated
the Plymouth Creek Association is still willing

Page 410
So work with `.he patitioner on alternatives to
the problem.
Attorney John Ploetz, represented Welsh
Construction and Z 5 3 Management. He stated
that Vicksburg Village currently has inadequate
parking and it causes congestion. The units are
85 percent occupied and 3.00 percent of parking is
being used. The result of an insufficient number
of parking spaces is vehicle parking in fire
lanes and handicapped zones.
Mr. Ploetz stated the plan meets or exceeds
current aesthetic/ccnstruction standards and will
improve the health and safety of the apartment
and condominium residents. The water quality of
Plymouth Creek will improve as the result of the
skimming and sedimentation/filtration ponds that
will be in -.luded in the plan. He stated the
property values of the adjacent condominium units
will increase due to the cleaner water. The
proposed landscaping and berming will enhance the
Jriew of the zpartments from the condoainiums.
Mr. Ploetz questioned whether Planning Commission
Chair Plufka was impartial on this issue since he
is an owner and resident of one of the Plymouth
Creek units, and the Association has been very
vocal in opposing the plan.
He stated that the proposal mentioned by Mr.
Hallisey to -move the easterly parking lot was
considered; however, the locations would not be
cloae to any of the apartment buildings and a tot
lot is nearby.
Councilmember Vasiliou stated she takes offense
and exception to the comments made about Chairman
rlufka. The first time this parking issue was
before the Council she had someone call the
Vicksburg village leasing office asking if there
was a problem with parking. she was told there
was no problem with parking.

response to a request from the Plymouth
speedskating Club; however, lighting vas
prev:.ously included in the plan:. There is
tremendous general public use of this facility.
The Park and Recreation Advisory Commission

Councilmember Ricker states I%n in favor of the
lighting installation, but gi:-...ioned the
recommended funding from the Park Dedication
Fund. The Council previously supported funding
this project from CARE funds. He suggested that
the project cost be funded 75 percent from DARE
funds, and 25 percent from park dedication funds.
Manager Willis stated there may be a problem
using the DARE funds, some of which is drug
forfeiture money. The forfeiture money may only
be available for Specific purposes in the police
department.
Public Safety Director Carlquist stated that drug
forfeiture funds can only be uses for capital
expenditures or further enforcement efforts.
Councilmember Ricker stated he doesn't want to
award the project bid until funding is
identified.
MOTION was made by Mayor Bergman, seconded by
Councilmember Ricker, to award the bid for rink
lighting at Parkers Lake Park to Metre Electric,
with funding from General Fund and to direct
staff to advise whether funds can come from
another source.
SUBSTITUTE MOTION was made by Councilmembsr
Ricker, seconded by Councilmember Vasiliou, to
adopt RESOLUTION NO. 91-681 APPROVING LIGHTING
FOR PARKERS LAKE SKATING RINKS, with funding from
the DARE funds.
Councilmember Vasiliou asked Speedskating Club
organizer Greg Oly what efforts have been made to
solicit funds from other cities where club
participants are from.
Greg Oly stated that most club participants are
Plymouth residents. The first year he nersona?ly
funded the club. Last year the club raised
4,500. This year he anticipates raising enough
funds to cover the program costs. He stated this
program has nos been funded or run by the Cite.
The police department or the DARE program is not
involved in administrating or running the
program. Lighting at Parkers Lake will benefit

the general public, not only the Speedskating
Club. He said the Club provides free skating
instructors to the public. if the Club ;e
practicing, anyone is welcome to participate and
the Club is open to members of any age.
In response to a question by Councilmember
Ricker, Mr. Oly stated the program is promoted
through the Plymouth Park and Recreation
Department. The City maintains the ice.
Councilmember 11cker predicted the program will
continue to grow, and stated that if it is a Park
and Renreation program, it may eventually be part
of the regular program budge .
Councilmember Zitur stated he supports using DARE
funding for the lighting. The skating program is
proactive toward keeping children occupied and
away from drugs.
Councilmember Vasiliou agreed, stating that the
Council was advised that the Speedskating Club
originally was an extenoion of DARE. She felt
the lighting installation would be a very
appropriate use of DARE funds.
Motion carried on a roll call vote, five ayes.
Mayor Bergman asked whether in-house park
department staff has been trained in irrigation
work, such as the proposed installation of an
irrigation system for Ridgemount Playfield.
Park Superintendent Peterson stated that park
staff has been trained in irrigation work and has
installed irrigation systema at several City
facilities. The City will rent the necessary
equipment.
Councilmember Vaailiou stated that several other
citioo have recei•red community organization
aonations for this type of work. She asked if
staff has considered looking to local groups for
donations on similar projects?
Manager Millis stated some donated services have
been received in the past from local clubs
including the Lions C1 ib and optimists Club.

Manager Willis stated that Robert F. Hughes has

of the Fire Inspector, Fire Chief, and Pablic
Safety Director with respect to a variance from
sprinkling of the basement of the business
located at 4130 Highway 101 d/b/a Party Mart
Liquor.
James E. Tiller, 145 Hamel Road, Hamel,
represented Robert Hughes. Mr. Tiller stated
teat a sprinkler eysrem was required for a
basement of 2,500 sq. ft. or larger in 1973, when
the building was constructed. The current Cede
requires a sprinkler system for a basement of
1,500 sq. ft. or larger. The building is about
1,584 sq. ft. He provided a copy of & letter to
Kevin Leuer from the btate Fire Marshal. The
letter indicaLed that the Fire Marshal used
discretion in situations of pre -1983 buildings.

Mr. Tiller stated sprinkling should not be
required in this situation because: 1) The usla is
an off -sale li;uor store; 2) Products stored are
non -hazardous; 3) The floor is prestressed
concrete; 4) Tzere is no furnace in the
basement - onl`, a water heater; 5) There is an
emergency esca;)e to the front of the building - a
beer chute; 6) Employees are in the basement only
a limited amou-.t of time each day; 7) The
basement is us: -d only for storage; 8) The cost of
installing the sprinkler system is estimated at
11,000 plus t:ie wiring and alarms.
Mr. Tiller staled that in the event the Council
does not rule favorably on the appeal, the owner
has the option to build a concrete wall the
length of the building which would bring the area
to less than the 1,500 maximum. This action
would not mater.'.ally change the risk, but the
owner would be :n compliance with the Code at a
significantly leas cost.
Bob Hughes state,, that the $11,000 for sprinkler
system includes the cost for bringing a 4" water
service line to the building. He is not
currently connected to City water.
Councilmember Zitur stated he is primarily
concerned about firefighters responding to a call
at this Location.
Public Safety Director Carlquist stated that
staff doesn't belie -re the building was in
conformance with the Uniform Building Code when
it was originally constructed. He stated that if
the Council upholds the decision of staff, the
owner has the option of appealing the decision to
the State Fire Marshal.
Director Carlquist stated the Fire Department
learned that the building had a basement when
conducting an inspection for a gasoline service
sCation license for this location a year ago.
The 1967 Uniform Building Cvr1P wnu ld hav±
required sprinkling of the prop"rty. Stiff can
find no documentation or reports that relate to
approval of the construction in 1968 or to the
addition in 1970. There wasn't water a•ailable
to serve the site until this year.

Kevin Leuer, Fire Inspector, stated the Uniform
Fire Code doesn't always require retrofitting of
a building if the building complied with the Code
when built. The Code outlines two criteria for
sprinkling: 1) The basement exceeds 1,500 sq.
ft.; and 2) Accessibility for outside
firefighting. He stated this situation meets
both criteria. It is likely that the heat of a
fire would expand the metal floor and when water
is applied the floor would contract causing the
structure of the building to collapse. The
language in the 1961 Uniform Building Code is
identical to the current Code with respect to the
sprinkling requirement. He believes the safety
of the firefighters would be at extreme risk if a
fire occurred at this structure.
Councilmember Ricker stated that while
construction of the concrete wall may ke an
alternative method to achieve the 1,500 sq. ft.
maximum, it would not solve the problem of
firefighter safety in the event of a fire.
MOTION was made by Councilmember Ricker, seconded
by Councilmember Vasiliou, to adopt RESOLUTION
NO. 91-684 DENYING THN APPEAL OF ROBERT F. HUGHES
PERTAINING TO THE UNIFORM CODE REQUIREMENT FOR
SPRINKLERING IN A BASEMENT. This allows the
owner the option of appealing the decision to the
State Fire Marshal.
Mr. Hughes stated his primary objection to
sprinkling is running a 4" wate, service line
into the building.
Inspector Lauer stated that to achieve adequate
water supply under the sprinkling requirements, a
4" line would be required to provide adequate
flow. If there is adequate water pressure with a
smaller sized watermain, a variance could be
granted to allow a smaller line connection to the
building.
Motion carried on a roll call •rote, five ayes.
Staff was directed to work with Mr. Hughes on
fire flow calculations to determine if water
pressure would be sufficient for domestic use and

Ass'-stant Manager Boyles presented the proposed
1992 Plymouth Metrolink and Dial -a -Ride budget in
the $mount of $1,158,000. He explained the
increr3e from 1991 includes increased ridership,
inc._essed hourly rates, and increased hours of
ser vi%:e. Two new articulated 60 passenger buses
will to added next year, and $100,000 is budgeted
on an undesignated basis to provide new transit

Pri gran..
T!.n budc-et anticipates a 3 percent increase in
rLiershio for Metrolink and Dial -a -Ride, and an
ii.crease4 in Dial -a -Ride fares from $1.50 to
2.00.
Zouncilmeriber Vasiliou described a resident
complaint that she is unable to get Dial -a -Ride
service because the vehicle is being used for
school bus transportation. The resident is told
when she calls to arrange a ride that the
vehicles are in use for schools, but she can't
call any sooner than 24 hours in advance.
Assistant Boyles will contact the resident.
Assistant Boyles stated the off-duty vehicles
provide additional riders for the program. The
primary difficulty in serving everyone is that
many people want: to be served at the same time.
An additional peak time Dcal-a-Ride vehicle will
be provided in 1992.
