J. �WILLT.A,.'�i DO�IOVA►�: VALIIATIO;I AND ASSESS:IEV� EiiGII3EER �v ' Dec�mber 9, 1979 � , St. Paul, Minnesota TO: City Council St. Paul, Minnesota SUBJECT: Response to letter (File # X2419) dated November 9, 1979 , regaraing application for transfer of liquor license of M.G.M. Liquor Warehouse, Inc. (See attached copy of letter) . Ladies and Gentlemen: We, the undersigned wish to take strong objection to any attempt by M.G. M. Liquor Warehouse to transfer address of their present liquor license. The effect of such a transfer being approved would constitute a further major expansion of this compan�'s activities in a block presently zoned one-half commercial and one-half residential and cause the loss of our neighborhood grocery. M.G. M. Liquor Warehouse, Inc. has demonstrated an unparrelled record of ignoring and abusing the wishes, feelings and rights of its neighbors since moving into the block approximately four years ago. This license transfer, if approved, will lead to the third major expansion of a business which is rapidly destroying the residential tone of our neighborhood. During the two previous expansions by M.G. M, verbal promises were made to us in your chambers on July 19 , 1978, which were subsequently ignored after M.G. M. recieved expansion approval; these include: 1 . No parking signs in the alley were never erected. 2. Painting of the back of the building from its present garish red to a color more compatible with the neighborhood was never done. 3. Closing of the area between M.G. M's two present buildings in order to deny acces;� to the alley by customers was never accomplished. 4. Promised periodic checks of the alley by the owners and/or employed off duty policemen have not been made. In addition: 1. The lighting of the alley has been reduced since M.G. M. expanded (November 2 , 1979) making it unsafe for use by other block residents after dark. 2. The broken glass and litter problem directly attributable to M.G. M. ha s magnified. 3. Loitering in the alley, especially after dark and during the noo.� hour has increased. 4. Our driveways are still being used by M.G. M. customers . 5. Customers urinating in our driveways and against our fences and garages has become almost an everyday occurance. We appeal to you not only to deny the applicatir�n in question but to aid us in holding, M.G. M. responsible for the deteriation of the health and safety standards of this neighborhood.

Gillen 1105 Califomia Avenue West St. Paul, Minnesota 55108 Re: Development of the new MGM Store at the intersection of Larpenteur and Lexington Dear Mr. and Mrs. Gillen: This letter is written to confirm our understanding of Friday, January 18, 1980, in which Mr. Richard Larson, an architect employed by MGM, and the undersigned met with you and Mr. and Mrs. Elvester to review the proposed new MGM building at the inter- section of Larpenteur and Lexington. At an earlier meeting on January 3, 1980, neighbors asked for co�ents on their concerns which may be summarized as follows: 1 The neighbors requested the building be moved from the front of the lot to the alley line. 2 There was a request for a pedestrian barrier to eliminate access to the alley. 3 The neighbors requested a fence be erected with a minimum height of eight feet of aesthetic ma.terial designed in a manner which would inhibit debris from blowing i.nto the alley. 4 Improved lighting in the alley. S Refuse be stored along Larpenteur Avenue and not adjacent to the alley. 6 That MGM �provide an increase in security. 7 That there be no parking in the alley. In the course of our discussion Friday afternoon, Mr. Larson, the architect, explained the City will not approve providing the proposed building with a traffic corridor adja- cent to Larpenteur Avenue. Currently, the B-line grocery store building is sited at the rear of the lot permitting parking and traffic movement across the front of the lot. The B-line grocery situation was "grandfathered". Mr. Larson noted it would not be permitted today an d in the case of the MGM proposal the City would be firm in its insistence that the building be sited at the front of the lot. . . k Lr1iRKIN, HOFFM�N, DALY Sc LINDGREN, LTD. Mr. and Mrs. Frances C. Gillen January 21, 1980 Page �ao At the rear of the lot there is a proposed 20 foot traffic corridor which initially contemplated traffic movement in a east-west manner. As the result of our discussions, Mr. Larson is modifying the plan to show an ingress for automobiles only at the alley on the east side of the building off of Lexington. Parking lot traffic will not be allowed to exit to Lexington Avenue by means of this corridor. The corridor will be an entrance only. Furthermore, trucks will not be able to utilize this corridor to enter or exit. Trucks will be required to enter and exit by means of Larpenteur Avenue. It is anticipated that most truck traffic will be confined to the early morning hours between 8:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. Trucks will be required to enter the parking lot off of Larpenteur Avenue and then back into the corridor for the purpose of making deliveries. The trucks will then exit �.y means of Larpenteur Avenue. It is agreed an eight foot fence will be erected of cedar. The fence will extend from the office building utilized by MGM as its corporate offices �o a point five feet from the property line at Lexington Avenue. The fence will scale down near Lexington Avenue to provide better vi.sibility for traffic utilizing the alley. The building plans will be modified in reference to refuse. The refuse disposal will be internalized and no refuse will be stored on the exterior of the building. Waste materials will be compacted and stored within the building until moved directly into a van and removed from the premises. Experience indicates this procedure should mini.mi.ze if not to�a7:ly eliminate problems associated with garbage. The light behind the MGM Store which is currently broken will be repaired and maintained by MGM. Physical inspection of the light on the afternoon of Friday, January 18, 1980, indicated that vandals had again broken the light. In the design of the new MGM store, Mr. Larson agreed to use a control light which will provide ample illumination of the parking lot and alley but restrict the light from falling upon adjacent residential are as. MGi�i will make an effort to improve security. Security has been directed primarily at . assuring compliance with applicable state and local law requiring alcoholic beverages not be sold to minors. MGM agrees additional attention will be given to problems arising in the exterior parking areas. MGM has in the past supported the efforts of residents to have parking prohibited in the alley between Larpenteur and California Avenues from Lexington to Dunlap Avenues. MGM continues to support this effort and will ask the City Council at the hearing on Wednesday, January 23, 1980, to consider some alternative means of accomplishing this end. Definitely, MGM has no interest in having its patrons or others park in the alley. Hopefully, the closing of the B-Iine grocery store will contribute additional parking area that will contribute to a temporary solution of a problem pending construction of the new facility. � � • .
