viewed and that certain recommendations had been made

Draft Ordinance Relating The City Manager next discussed a draft ordinance rela-
to a Dutch Elm Disease tive to the establishment of a Dutch Elm disease control
Control Program, program. He stated the ordinance was first read on
October 16, 1972 and published on October 26, 1972.
A discussion then ensued regarding the need for and the
administration of such a program.
The Mayor stated that one of the unanswered questions
of the proposal was the possibility of a replacement
program. He noted that this had been suggested in light
of the receipt of federal Revenue Sharing funds.
The City Manager stated that at this time it did not
appear the cost of a replacement program would be pro-
hibitive presuming that small city - owned trees were used
for the replacement of elm trees removed from boulevard
areas. He stated, however, if larger trees and /or a
large number of trees were necessary, a re- evaluation of
such a replacement program would be necessary since
that expenditure would be similar to a major capital
investment.

Consensus as to Duration A brief discussion was initiated by Mayor Cohen who
of Council ?Meetings suggested that the Council consider an informal policy
wherein Council meetings would not extend past mid-
night. A consensus developed that unless warranted by
special circumstances, Council meetings would not be
extended past the hour of 12 :00 midnight.
Discussion of Draft The next order of business was the discussion of a pro-
Resolution Re- establishing posed redefinition of the Park and Recreation Advisory
Parks & Recreation Advisory Commission responsibilities. The City Manager pre-
Commission sented a draft resolution and explained that it represent -
ed an effort to redefine the duties and responsibilities
of the Park and Recreation Advisory Commission along
lines previously discussed by the City Council. He
stated the proposal has been developed in a format
similar to those which created various other advisory
commissions such as the Human Rights Commission, the
Conservation Commission, and the Youth Advisory
Commission.
An extensive discussion ensued and Mayor Cohen
recognized the Director of Parks and Recreation who
offered comments as to the draft resolution. Further
discussion centered around the role of the Commission
in developing a comprehensive park plan and recommend-
ing priorities in relation to capital budgeting.
Park Service Districts Councilman Britts initiated discussion relative to the
Discussed proposed establishment of park service districts with
particular regard for the appointment of commissioners
representing such districts. He noted his concern that
the draft resolution somewhat arbitrarily designated two
commissioners from two of the districts. Councilman
Kuefler suggested that one commissioner be appointed
per each of the five park service districts with two
commissioners to be appointed at large with the provision,
that there be not more than two commissioners per
district.
Include Community In further discussion it was determined that Subdivision4
Center in Draft paragraph 3 should include the City recreation center as
one of the points to be visited by the Commission in an
effort to keep informed of current recreation programs.

Council or, cork Service committees, the Mayor commented that such appoint -.
Area Committee Appoint- ments should be subject to the advice and consent of the
ments Council. Regarding the designation of the park service
area committee chairman , it was determined that the
provision of Subdivision 11 should read, "The chairman
of each park service area committee shall consist of a
park and recreation commissioner residing in the res-
pective park service area. "
In response to a question by Councilman Britts, the
City Manager explained that a copy of the draft resolu-
tion had been sent to the present Park and Recreation
Commissioners and that the item was presented to the
-9- 1 -22 -73
Council as a discussion item and was not proposed for
a first reading at this time. He stated that the Director
of Parks and Recreation had arranged for a meeting of the
Park and Recreation Commission in the near future and
that the resolution would be reviewed at that time.
Proposal to Make The next item of business was introduced by Councilman
Recreation Center Facilities Kuefler who proposed that necessary action be taken by
Available to Senior Citizens the Council to amend the membership policies of the
Free of Charge Community Center so to offer such facilities without
charge to Brooklyn Center residents over 60 years of age.
The City Manager suggested that the matter be referred
to the staff for preparation of a policy statement for City.
Council action. He stated that it appeared the proposal
would be workable and was feasible.
Direct Development of Following a brief discussion there was a motion by
Response and Resolution to Councilman Kuefler, seconded by Councilman Fignar to
Proposed Policy direct the City Manager to develop a policy statement
regarding the proposal to offer the facilities of the
Brooklyn Center Community Center to residents over 60

against: none. Motion passed.
Consideration of Proposed The next item of business was consideration of proposed
Modifications to Chapter 34 modifications of Chapter 34 of the City Ordinances (Sign:
(Sign Ordinance) Ordinance) submitted by the Planning Commission. The
City Manager explained the matter of office building
signery had recently been an item of considerable activ-
ity. He stated apprehension that the activity was pro-
gressing along lines not fully comprehended by the Sign
Ordinance led to an administrative moratorium on the iss-
uance of office building signery until the Planning
Commission and Council could review the matter. He
stated the problem was most specifically related to the
multi -story office buildings now being completed in the
City.
He then proceeded to review the draft containing changes
recommended by the Planning Commission. An extensive
discussion then ensued.
Councilman Britts inquired whether the recommended
pro-
changes had been considered in the context o€ the
9 p
posed freeway zone concept and Mr. Tremere responded
in the affirmative. Councilman Fignar inquired as to the
differentiation between "commercial" vs. "retail" rela-
tive to the provisions for wall signery which ground
floor tenants of multi -story office buildings in the C2
district would be permitted.
In further discussion the City Manager stated that a
determination should be made whether continuation of
the moratorium on wall and projecting signs for multi-
story office buildings should be continued pending
further study and determination. An extensive dis-
cussion ensued and it was determined that more time
was needed to fully analyze and discuss the proposed
changes to the Sign Ordinance.
-10- 1 -22 -73
Declare 60 Day Motion by Councilman Fignar, seconded by Councilman
Moratorium- on Issuance Britts to declare a moratorium on the issuance of permits
