Tenant Protection Ordinances
City Attorney opinion—can enact an ordinance as Plan B Statutory City
BUT, cannot enact anything that might be construed as “rent control”
Unfortunately this would preclude a tenant protection clause that the new
owner can’t hike up rents during the tenant protection period or after
Further discussions to be had and recommendation to be developed
What’s next for the Task Force
Identify & arrange speaking engagements with additional practitioners as
needed & available
Continue inventorying & developing strategies for preservation of Naturally
Occurring Affordable Housing (NOAH)
Finalize Tenant Protection recommendation
More research on cost offsets for inclusionary projects
Ongoing research into broader menu of policy ideas

A. PLANNING COMMISSION
Planning Commission Chair, Andrew Pieper, presented the 2019 accomplishments
and 2020 goals. They reviewed 17 development projects in 2019, including single
family home, multi-family housing, public organizations, and commercial and office. Single family home developments include Beverly Hill, Sheldon Place townhomes, Miller property, and Stable Path. Castle Ridge was a redevelopment for mixed-use senior housing commercial and retail project. Phase one has 274 senior housing units.
Paravel Apartments are a redevelopment at Castle Ridge for multi-family housing.
Pieper stated the Commission reviewed Central Middle School plans for additions and a remodel. Additions include a 700 seat auditorium, new west entrance, gymnasium addition, cafeteria addition, 26 additional classrooms, and a music wing.
They reviewed public organization projects such as the Nine Mile Creek Watershed
District office addition, City yard waste drop site, and ground storage water reservoir and pump station. They reviewed three variance applications, approved two code amendments, and finalized parks rezoning. The 2040 Aspire Eden Prairie Comprehensive Plan was approved by the Metropolitan Council with final approval
in October 2019 from the City Council.
Pieper stated 2020 Planning Commission initiatives include development project applications, Aspire 2040 implementation, code amendments, and Commission training curriculum.
Aho inquired about Commission training curriculum and if it will be suitable for other Commissions. Klima stated the training is catered to the Planning Commission,
City Council Workshop Minutes February 4, 2020
Page 2 but the template and general information could be used for other Commissions. Pieper added the training discusses the process of reviewing plans.
Nelson inquired about sustainable practices and the review of plans and projects such as electric plug ins for garages. Pieper replied the Commission brings up solar and electric charging stations for nearly every project.
Case inquired if the Commission Members have ideas of what the City could improve
on in the next ten years. DeSanctis commented he would like to see some of the vacant land converted to solar farms with a focus on pollinator preservation and prairie flowers. There have been successful cases in southern Minnesota. The plantings are also more aesthetically pleasing than gravel and fences. Pieper stated it
will be interesting to see how the light rail transit impacts the community in regards
to development. Case stated at a recent conference he viewed a future electric vehicle called cruise. It is an eight to ten passenger car with the ability to be programed to run a route. He noted SouthWest Transit may be moving towards these types of vehicles, specifically on routes near the light rail transit.
Freiberg expressed his gratitude for the work Commission Members do, and Council Members echoed those statements. Many projects are approved by the Council as is and are a testament to the work the Commission does.
Narayanan inquired about considerations for seniors such as accommodations for less
stairs and more accessibility. Pieper stated one of the recent senior living developments had an option for an elevator. Nelson noted developments such as Sheldon Place townhomes are providing opportunities for multi-level homes to be adaptable to various mobility needs. Case noted the City is intentionally enhancing
the quality of life of residents with quality projects.
Aho added to keep transportation and services in mind as projects are reviewed. B. HUMAN RIGHTS & DIVERSITY COMMISSION
Greg Leeper, Human Rights and Diversity Commission (HRDC) Chair, and Student Commission Member Stavan Bhakta presented the 2019 accomplishments and 2020 goals. There is a mix of newer and seasoned Commission Members. The student Commission Members have been very engaged and provide a lot of input. Last year
the Commission challenged the students to come up with an event, an initiative,
training, or some kind of offering to impact the high school or community. Leeper stated Eden Prairie is 25 percent communities of color, and they work to represent and engage all communities. When considering events, they wanted to
provide opportunities for residents to interact with the police and fire departments in a
non-emergency situation. They initially created Coffee with the Cops a few years ago. They started Kickin’ It with the Cops last year, and it was very successful. There was a lot of involvement with police, fire, and parks and recreation. The Council, Mayor Case, Police Chief, and Fire Chief volunteered in the dunk tank. There were at least
200 kids who attended.
City Council Workshop Minutes February 4, 2020
Page 3 Leeper stated in 2019 they awarded the Human Rights Awards. They also partnered
with communications to present a series of Native American Heritage Month social
media posts. 2019 was the second year of PeopleFest!, and the attendance increased from 300 to 700. Early last year, they hosted a community conversation series at the high school. They also partnered with Eden Prairie Foundation and Eden Prairie Community Education for Culture ‘N Motion.
Bhakta stated every month the Commission provided opportunities to listen to individuals and organizations on improvements the City could make. Some of the topics presented on were Census 2020 outreach, supporting survivors of human trafficking, social justice theater discussion on human rights, disability access,
American with Disabilities Act (ADA) transition plan for the right-of-way, and Indian
Independence Day celebration. Bhakta introduced the 2020 goals. The Commission intends to promote inclusivity by creating spaces for connecting, increase listening avenues, and enlist cooperation of
organizations and individuals in the community to promote awareness and
appreciation of the City’s Manifesto. 2020 initiatives include the Passport to Pop Culture event. The Commission is working to partner with the high school to have teachers offer extra credit for attending. Leeper stated an Iftar dinner is a new planned event. They were invited to attend an Iftar dinner in Golden Valley, and many wanted
to provide a similar opportunity in Eden Prairie. Bhakta stated the Commission is
focusing on continuing to build on PeopleFest! They will continue to offer Stop the Trafficking 5k, Kicking’ it with the Cops, and Culture N’ Motion. Leeper stated 2020 subcommittees will focus on Census 2020 outreach, police community relations, and one Eden Prairie. They will continue to serve as support for victims of bias crimes
and review alleged ADA violations.
Case inquired about what Eden Prairie could be doing now to help shape its future. Leeper stated to continue engaging community and have representation from diverse groups in all levels of government. Bhakta added more awareness of opportunities to
be involved in City government.
Nelson noted it would be helpful to have more awareness of the event dates and times through various sources.
Narayanan inquired if any bias crimes were reported in 2019. Megan Yerks, HRDC
staff liaison, replied there were a few reported to her but none wanting follow up from the Commission. Narayanan inquired about the human library event. Leeper replied not every event made it back into the rotation.
C. PARKS, RECREATION & NATURAL RESOURCES COMMISSION
Larry Link, Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission (PRNRC) Chair, presented the 2019 accomplishments and 2020 goals. PRNRC 2019 accomplishments include participation in the design process for the Staring Lake Park building and
contributing feedback to the redesign of the program brochure. Staff downsized the
City Council Workshop Minutes February 4, 2020
Page 4 total amount of pages from 96 to 48 and focused on more visual appeal and directing residents to the website. The brochure also includes all City events. PRNRC
continues to offer feedback and support for finding new areas for public art. Public art
has decreased instances of graffiti. Link stated the Commission received updates and commented on proposed strategies for Emerald Ash Borer (EAB). There has been an increase in the past two years of
infected trees, but the City has a good plan in place in regards to removal and
replacement. For the Community Center, the PRNRC reviewed improvements for new exercise equipment, benches, and trash receptacles. Additionally, staff presented on technology improvements for the parks and recreation department. There have been updates made to the scheduling software for staff, wifi added at Round Lake
Park, and the sound system added at Staring Lake Park.
Link stated in regards to 2020 goals, parks and recreation has been engaging in strategic planning. PRNRC continues to assist staff with reviewing those documents. They have discussed the changes that might be seen in the next ten years such as
demographics of participants, technology, partnerships with healthcare, and activities
available to residents. The Commission will continue to provide feedback and assist with PeopleFest! by building awareness and seeking out performers for the event. PRNRC continues to analyze and give feedback on ways to serve underserved populations and offer scholarships. They plan to review designs and help establish
priorities for trail connections. There is also a focus on assisting staff with equity and
inclusion efforts for adaptive programs for all groups. Lastly, they are continuing to increase marketing and learn how to engage the community. Nelson stated some families and seniors are not equipped to access all digital
programming. She added the best parks and amenities are on the west side of the
City, and to take into consideration the east portion of the City with events and portable splash pads. Also continue to provide equipment for preschoolers at parks. Narayanan inquired about what other cities are doing that would add to the City’s
offerings. He inquired if the City has considered digital applications to promote
events. Lotthammer replied they often seek input from student commission members. Aho inquired if the City is offering enough for pickleball players. Link responded there is a desire for more indoor playing spaces. Lotthammer stated the City did not
overbuild and the courts built were strategic. Staff continues to review best practices.
They are currently observing a nature-based preschool in another community. Aho inquired what the next popular activity is similar to pickleball. Link responded cricket is increasing in popularity, but they are still unsure what may emerge.

ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS A. RESOLUTION NO. 2020-29 OF SUPPORT FOR MANAGING WATER FLOWS
IN MINNESOTA RIVER BASIN THROUGH INCREASED WATER STORAGE AND OTHER STRATEGIES AND PRACTICES Getschow explained the Minnesota River Congress is spearheading an initiative to
secure significant funding by requesting a bill in the state legislature that would create a realistically adequate pool of money targeted specifically for surface water storage. The envisioned program and funds would target the Minnesota River Basin and potentially other Minnesota basins where applicable. Funds for implementation would be directed
to Soil and Water Conservation Districts, Watershed Districts, and landowners. He
noted the Public Works and Engineering Departments were supportive of the efforts and did not see any concerns about supporting the request. MOTION: Nelson moved, seconded by Freiberg, to adopt Resolution No. 2020-29
supporting managing water flows in the Minnesota River Basin through increased
water storage and other strategies and practices. Motion carried 5-0. XII. PETITIONS, REQUESTS, AND COMMUNICATIONS XIII. APPOINTMENTS XIV. REPORTS A. REPORTS OF COUNCIL MEMBERS 1. 2020 Mayor and Council Member Priorities Case stated at the first meeting in January he asked Council Members to be
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES February 4, 2020
Page 4 prepared to share several priorities about which each of them has a deep interest and passion for 2020.
Freiberg shared his three priorities: 1. Work force housing. We need to continue our efforts for affordable housing through the task force set up for that purpose and by keeping the pressure on until we have a really good plan.
2. Continue to look at redefining our downtown now that Southwest Light
Rail (SWLRT) is coming in and a very large Scheels store is under construction. We are losing a lot of entertainment dollars to other cities, and it would be good to have a clear-cut concept of our downtown. 3. Address the portion of our residents who are low income and need some
help. There are children and seniors in our community who are going
hungry. We need to look for ways to help people so no one goes to bed hungry. Nelson listed her priorities:
1. Housing. The task force is working on a plan, and the Council will need
get the plan, discuss how to work it out, and begin to execute the plan over the next ten years. 2. Conservation and waste. We need to continue our energy saving efforts in the City and should increase our efforts to conserve organics so we
can be one of the first cities to do organics recycling.
3. Set some requirements to encourage commercial and large housing projects to install charging stations in their buildings. 4. Make sure Eden Prairie gets as much as possible out of SWLRT and make sure it works as we want it to.
Aho shared his priorities: 1. The business community. It is important for us to be engaged with our business partners in the City. We have many large companies and organizations that employ a lot of people in our City. Many of those
people travel to work here, and it is important to keep engaged with that
community. In addition, he would like to look into having an incubator space to promote new businesses. 2. Transportation. As Chair of Southwest Transit, he believes there is a need for Southwest Transit and the City to focus on how to assist people
to make the last mile of their trip to work or shop after the completion of
SWLRT. We must make sure we are providing a valuable linkage between Southwest Station and people’s final destination. Southwest Transit has some great plans, and we, as a City, need to partner with them on such services as autonomous vehicles in the Golden Triangle area. In addition, people are in need of the PrimeMD service started by
Southwest Transit, and we can serve as a catalyst to promote that service. 3. Cyber security. There has been a lot of news about hacking, ransomware, and cyber-attacks being focused on cities and Police and
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES February 4, 2020
Page 5 Fire Departments. Because both he and Council Member Narayanan are involved in the field of cyber security, it would be a good time to
undertake an in-depth review of our current security measures to make
sure we are protecting our City. We need to use all the latest tools and techniques to protect our data. Narayanan stated as we take on additional goals, it is important to maintain our
current status as a City and the awesome level of services we provide. He
reviewed his priorities: 1. Environment. We should continue to make progress in setting goals and implementing environmental goals such as encouraging the use of solar energy and recycling. We should influence builders to include charging
stations in their projects.
2. Set up an initiative for the City and the Chamber to encourage small/medium sized businesses in our City. 3. Seniors. We have an aging population, and we need to focus on what the seniors need in areas such as affordable housing and transportation.
Case emphasized these goals are not specific goals to change the staff’s work plan; rather, these represent the interests and the priorities of individual Council Members. He listed his priorities: 1. A climate action initiative. Discussions about climate are increasing and
the technology regarding climate issues is exploding in areas such as
solar arrays and battery capacity. We should continue our progress in areas such as updating our municipal fleet to rechargeable vehicles. 2. Affordable housing initiative. We are currently gathering the information, but we must now decide what to do with the information to
make it actionable and effective in the City.
3. An entrepreneurship initiative. The City Council should partner with other organizations to develop some of the ideas coming from groups such as the Kauffman Foundation. We should put together an eco-system economic development space. There is space at the High School
that could be used by students and others in the community for such an
initiative. It would be a partnership with the City, the Chamber and the schools, and we would be one of the first communities in the State to have such an eco-system economic development space.
Narayanan commented he appreciated this assignment because it made him
really think about which things are important to him and what he wanted to accomplish in the City. Nelson noted it is important to continue the City’s sidewalk and accessibility initiatives.
Aho thought there was a synergy between many of the ideas presented.
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES February 4, 2020
Page 6 Case reported when he attends Mayors’ meetings he learns about many cities that are experiencing difficulties and problems. Here in Eden Prairie we have a
positive economic environment, and there is an overall satisfaction with our
City. We need to make sure we maintain that level. Getschow said almost every item mentioned by the Council Members is located somewhere in the City work plan. We need to maintain some things, take some
to the next level, and add some to the plan.

performance of this Agreement within ten (10) days of the Consultant's receipt of
payment by the City for undisputed services provided by the subcontractor.

respect employees of City, and (ii) shall have no authority to employ persons, or make
purchases of equipment on behalf of City, or otherwise bind or obligate City. No statement herein shall be construed so as to find the Consultant an employee of the City. 11. Insurance.
a. General Liability. Prior to starting the Work, Consultant shall procure, maintain and
pay for such insurance as will protect against claims or loss which may arise out of operations by Consultant or by any subcontractor or by anyone employed by any of them or by anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable.

completed operations, personal and advertising injury, and liability assumed under an
insured contract (including the tort liability of another assumed in a business contract). There shall be no endorsement or modification of the Commercial General Liability form arising from pollution, explosion, collapse, underground property damage or work performed by subcontractors.
d. Professional Liability Insurance. In addition to the coverages listed above, Consultant shall maintain a professional liability insurance policy in the amount of $2,000,000. Said policy need not name the City as an additional insured. It shall be Consultant’s responsibility to pay any retention or deductible for the professional
liability insurance. Consultant agrees to maintain the professional liability insurance
for a minimum of two (2) years following termination of this Agreement. e. Consultant shall maintain “stop gap” coverage if Consultant obtains Workers’ Compensation coverage from any state fund if Employer’s liability coverage is not
available.
f. All policies, except the Worker’s Compensation Policy, Automobile Policy, and Professional Liability Policy, shall name the “City of Eden Prairie” as an additional insured including products and completed operations.
g. All policies, except the Professional Liability Policy, shall apply on a “per project” basis. h. All General Liability policies, Automobile Liability policies and Umbrella policies
shall contain a waiver of subrogation in favor of the City.
i. All policies, except for the Worker’s Compensation Policy and the Professional Liability Policy, shall be primary and non-contributory.
j. All polices, except the Worker’s Compensation Policy, shall insure the defense and
indemnity obligations assumed by Consultant under this Agreement. The Professional Liability policy shall insure the defense and indemnity obligations assumed by Consultant under this Agreement except with respect to the liability for
Page 6 of 10 2017 06 01
loss or damage resulting from the negligence or fault of anyone other than the
Consultant or others for whom the Consultant is legally liable.
k. Consultant agrees to maintain all coverage required herein throughout the term of the Agreement and for a minimum of two (2) years following City’s written acceptance of the Work.
l. It shall be Consultant’s responsibility to pay any retention or deductible for the coverages required herein. m. All policies shall contain a provision or endorsement that coverages afforded
thereunder shall not be cancelled or non-renewed or restrictive modifications added,
without thirty (30) days’ prior notice to the City, except that if the cancellation or non-renewal is due to non-payment, the coverages may not be terminated or non-renewed without ten (10) days’ prior notice to the City.
n. Consultant shall maintain in effect all insurance coverages required under this
Paragraph at Consultant’s sole expense and with insurance companies licensed to do business in the state in Minnesota and having a current A.M. Best rating of no less than A-, unless specifically accepted by City in writing.
o. A copy of the Consultant’s Certificate of Insurance which evidences the
compliance with this Paragraph, must be filed with City prior to the start of Consultant’s Work. Upon request a copy of the Consultant’s insurance declaration page, Rider and/or Endorsement, as applicable shall be provided. Such documents evidencing Insurance shall be in a form acceptable to City and shall provide
satisfactory evidence that Consultant has complied with all insurance requirements.
Renewal certificates shall be provided to City prior to the expiration date of any of the required policies. City will not be obligated, however, to review such Certificate of Insurance, declaration page, Rider, Endorsement or certificates or other evidence of insurance, or to advise Consultant of any deficiencies in such documents and
receipt thereof shall not relieve Consultant from, nor be deemed a waiver of, City’s
right to enforce the terms of Consultant’s obligations hereunder. City reserves the right to examine any policy provided for under this paragraph. p. Effect of Consultant’s Failure to Provide Insurance. If Consultant fails to provide
the specified insurance, then Consultant will defend, indemnify and hold harmless the
City, the City's officials, agents and employees from any loss, claim, liability and expense (including reasonable attorney's fees and expenses of litigation) to the extent necessary to afford the same protection as would have been provided by the specified insurance. Except to the extent prohibited by law, this indemnity applies regardless of
any strict liability or negligence attributable to the City (including sole negligence) and
regardless of the extent to which the underlying occurrence (i.e., the event giving rise to a claim which would have been covered by the specified insurance) is attributable to the negligent or otherwise wrongful act or omission (including breach of contract) of Consultant, its subcontractors, agents, employees or delegates. Consultant agrees that
Page 7 of 10 2017 06 01
this indemnity shall be construed and applied in favor of indemnification. Consultant
also agrees that if applicable law limits or precludes any aspect of this indemnity, then
the indemnity will be considered limited only to the extent necessary to comply with that applicable law. The stated indemnity continues until all applicable statutes of limitation have run.
If a claim arises within the scope of the stated indemnity, the City may require
Consultant to: i. Furnish and pay for a surety bond, satisfactory to the City, guaranteeing performance of the indemnity obligation; or ii. Furnish a written acceptance of tender of defense and indemnity from
Consultant's insurance company.
Consultant will take the action required by the City within fifteen (15) days of receiving notice from the City.
12. Indemnification. Consultant will defend and indemnify City, its officers, agents, and
employees and hold them harmless from and against all judgments, claims, damages, costs and expenses, including a reasonable amount as and for its attorney’s fees paid, incurred or for which it may be liable resulting from any breach of this Agreement by Consultant, its agents, contractors and employees, or any negligent or intentional act or
omission performed, taken or not performed or taken by Consultant, its agents,
contractors and employees, relative to this Agreement. City will indemnify and hold Consultant harmless from and against any loss for injuries or damages arising out of the negligent acts of the City, its officers, agents or employees.
13. Ownership of Documents. All plans, diagrams, analyses, reports and information
generated in connection with the performance of the Agreement (“Information”) shall become the property of the City, but Consultant may retain copies of such documents as records of the services provided. The City may use the Information for its purposes and the Consultant also may use the Information for its purposes. Use of the Information for
the purposes of the project contemplated by this Agreement (“Project”) does not relieve
any liability on the part of the Consultant, but any use of the Information by the City or the Consultant beyond the scope of the Project is without liability to the other, and the party using the Information agrees to defend and indemnify the other from any claims or liability resulting therefrom.
14. Mediation. Each dispute, claim or controversy arising from or related to this agreement shall be subject to mediation as a condition precedent to initiating arbitration or legal or equitable actions by either party. Unless the parties agree otherwise, the mediation shall be in accordance with the Commercial Mediation Procedures of the American Arbitration
Association then currently in effect. A request for mediation shall be filed in writing with
the American Arbitration Association and the other party. No arbitration or legal or equitable action may be instituted for a period of 90 days from the filing of the request for mediation unless a longer period of time is provided by agreement of the parties. Cost of mediation shall be shared equally between the parties. Mediation shall be held in
Page 8 of 10 2017 06 01
the City of Eden Prairie unless another location is mutually agreed upon by the parties.
The parties shall memorialize any agreement resulting from the mediation in a mediated
settlement agreement, which agreement shall be enforceable as a settlement in any court having jurisdiction thereof. GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
15. Assignment. Neither party shall assign this Agreement, nor any interest arising herein, without the written consent of the other party. 16. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. In providing services hereunder, the
Consultant shall abide by statutes, ordinances, rules, and regulations pertaining to the
provisions of services to be provided. Any violation of statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations pertaining to the services to be provided shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement and entitle the City to immediately terminate this Agreement.
17. Conflicts. No salaried officer or employee of the City and no member of the Council of
the City shall have a financial interest, direct or indirect, in this Agreement. The violation of this provision renders the Agreement void. 18. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which

Scope of Services
Requested Action
Move to: Accept bids and award the contract for the 2020 Twin Lakes Crossing Trail
Rehabilitation Project to Odesa II Inc. in the amount of $94,988.00.
Synopsis
The City advertised for the rehabilitation of 1300 lineal feet of existing 8 foot wide trail, and the installation of 9 new pedestrian ramps at various roadway crossings. The City received sealed
bids from four contractors.
Background
The scope of this project is to replace the surface of existing 8 foot wide bituminous bike trail
segments whose surface is rough, severely degraded and in extremely poor condition. In 2018
these trail segments ranked as being in poor condition (PCI under 70) in a city wide trail and sidewalk assessment that was done by Good Pointe Technology. These trail sections cannot be renovated using the standard surface treatment of a rock chip seal coat; these bituminous portions must be rebuilt to provide a safe and useable trail surface for the next 20+ years.
The staff estimate and budget on this project was $100,000. The funding for this rehabilitation
project comes from the Capital Improvement Program, Capital Maintenance and Reinvestment funding under the Parks and Recreation Department.
Bid Summary and Recommendation
The summary of the bids submitted is as follows:

Approve Supplemental Agreement with Hennepin County for Flying Cloud Drive Utility Improvements.
ITEM NO.:
VIII.F.
Requested Action Move to: Approve Supplemental Agreement No. 15 with Hennepin County for utility improvements in the amount of $273,155.76.
Synopsis During the installation of city utility improvements (sanitary sewer, forcemain, and watermain) along Flying Cloud Drive as part of Hennepin County’s CSAH 61 improvements, the contractor experienced liquefied soils and unstable soil conditions under the proposed utility alignment.
After the discovery of these conditions, we worked with Hennepin County staff to re-design the
utility alignments to minimize the soil foundation issues but the conditions only minimally improved with the revised alignment. As a result, the county staff and contractor, in consultation with the geotechnical expert determined that special muck excavation and stabilizing rock backfill items be used when encountering these soil conditions. These pay items for additional
muck excavation and rock backfill were necessary to provide a stable foundation and bedding for
the proposed sanitary sewer, forcemain, and watermain. The attached supplemental agreement identifies the final quantities and negotiated unit prices for the pipe foundation/soil corrections. In addition, there is an item for standby time and an item for a 6” inside drop that were also a result of these soil conditions.
Financial Implications Supplemental Agreement No. 15 in the amount of $273,155.76 identifies the new contract items that the city in responsible for, as well as, the increased items that the county is responsible for
under their contract. The city’s cost of this supplemental agreement is $222,375.33 and the
county’s cost is $50,780.43. These extra project costs to the city will be funded with Sanitary Sewer and Water Capital Funds. Background Information Hennepin County began construction of the CSAH No. 61 (Flying Cloud Drive) project in the spring of 2018 with the closure of the eastern segment from CSAH No. 4 (Spring Road) to Charlson Road. This section was completed and re-opened in September of 2018. In the fall of 2018, the western segment from CSAH No. 4 (Spring Road) to CSAH No. 101 in Carver County
was closed and construction began during the fall of 2018 and proceeded through the winter of
2018/2019. Construction of this section of roadway continued during all of 2019 and was
substantially completed in November of 2019 and re-opened to traffic. Final construction of the
project will occur in the spring of 2020.

Award Contract for Asphalt Patch Truck Reconditioning and Updates
ITEM NO.: VIII.K.
Requested Action Move to: Award contract for asphalt patch truck reconditioning and updates to ABM Equipment &
Supply LLC in the amount of $24,313.93.
Synopsis The City of Eden Prairie currently owns a 2001 Freightliner model FL60 asphalt patching truck that has a
PB Loader model BC-4 asphalt patching body. The truck has only 37,000 miles on it and the cab and chassis of this vehicle are still in very good condition. In lieu of replacing this truck, staff is proposing to recondition and update the asphalt service body to extend the useful life of this vehicle for the foreseeable future. Given the low miles and overall good
condition of the cab and chassis, staff anticipates these updates will extend the service life of this vehicle for a minimum of 10 additional years. This is a considerable cost savings to the City as the purchase price of a new patch truck would be well in excess of $100,000.00.

Climate Action Plan Presentation
ITEM NO.:
XIV.E.1.
Requested Action
None Synopsis
In 2019 the City initiated an effort to develop a communitywide Climate Action Plan with a goal of eliminating carbon and greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. City staff, with the Conservation Commission and City Council input, have completed the draft Eden Prairie Climate Action Plan, and are presenting the Plan along with the key findings and recommendations. City staff will
come forward at a future near-term City Council meeting for final Climate Action Plan adoption.
Background Information By 2050, Eden Prairie’s community-wide business-as-usual emissions are predicted to total
1,028,901 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e). These emissions, in order of the largest
generating source, will come from travel, commercial/industrial electricity and natural gas usage, residential electricity and natural gas usage, and waste. To achieve a 2050 zero carbon emission goal several strategies have been identified in the
categories of commercial/industrial efficiency, residential efficiency, electric grid mix changes,
renewable energy, fuel switching in buildings, travel, and waste. Combined, these strategies have the ability to reduce total carbon emissions by over 1,000,000 tonnes. The strategies that will need to be employed to achieve this reduction include energy code
enforcement, net-zero energy buildings, energy-efficient retrofits, behavior change, Xcel
Energy’s planned emissions reduction, on-site renewable electricity, green power purchases, at-use fuel switching, travel mode shift, fleet electrification, and waste reduction and diversion. In support of these strategies the City will need to take several actions that encourage, regulate, incentivize, or demonstrative via leadership ways to accomplish significant decarbonization of
our community’s energy usage.
The successful implementation of Eden Prairie’s Climate Action Plan strategies and actions will lead to the achievement of community-wide emissions dropping to zero by 2050. These efforts will require critical partnerships with homeowners, businesses, nonprofit organizations, other
regulatory agencies, Xcel Energy, CenterPoint Energy, and the private sector advancement of
emerging technologies. Many steps have already been taken which position the City well to be a
leader in community-wide carbon reduction, but there will need to be a sustained push to
encourage, regulate, incentivize and lead as the plan is implemented over the next 30 years. At
key milestones the City will need to evaluate progress in meeting planned emission reduction goals and retool as necessary. It is recommended that the regional indicators presented in this report be collected and compared to planned targets every two years until 2030, then every five years thereafter.
While it is the goal of EP CAP to achieve total communitywide decarbonization by 2050, efforts that work to achieve this goal ahead of 2050 should be sought out and diligently pursued. Furthermore, The City shall make periodic updates to the CAP after communitywide emission data is collected to ensure the 2050 goal is achieved or to accelerate achievement to a more near
term date.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
By 2050, Eden Prairie’s community-wide business-as-usual emissions are predicted to total 1,028,901
tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e). These emissions, in order of the largest generating source,
will come from travel, commercial/industrial electricity and natural gas usage, residential electricity and
natural gas usage, and waste. Total CO2e emissions by generating source can be found in Figure 1 -
Business-as-Usual Emissions.
Figure 1 - Business-as-Usual Emissions
To achieve a 2050 zero carbon emission goal several strategies have been identified in the categories of
commercial/industrial efficiency, residential efficiency, electric grid mix changes, renewable energy, fuel
switching in buildings, travel, and waste. Combined, these strategies have the ability to reduce total
carbon emissions by over 1,000,000 tonnes as shown in Figure 2 - Planned Emissions Reduction.
The strategies that will need to be employed to achieve this reduction include energy code
enforcement, net-zero energy buildings, energy-efficient retrofits, behavior change, Xcel Energy’s
planned emissions reduction, on-site renewable electricity, green power purchases, at-use fuel
switching, travel mode shift, fleet electrification, and waste reduction and diversion. In support of these
strategies the City will need to take several actions that encourage, regulate, incentivize, or
demonstrative via leadership ways to accomplish significant decarbonization of our community’s energy
usage. A summary of all actions that support the strategies leading to a carbon neutral 2050 are
summarized in Table 1 - Climate Plan Actions.

As shown in Figure 3 - Planned Emissions, the successful implementation of Eden Prairie’s Climate Action
Plan strategies and actions will lead to the achievement of community-wide emissions dropping to zero
by 2050. These efforts will require critical partnerships with homeowners, businesses, nonprofit
organizations, other regulatory agencies, Xcel Energy, CenterPoint Energy, and the private sector
advancement of emerging technologies. Many steps have already been taken which position the City
well to be a leader in community-wide carbon reduction, but there will need to be a sustained push to
encourage, regulate, incentivize and lead as the plan is implemented over the next 30 years. At key
milestones the City will need to evaluate progress in meeting planned emission reduction goals and
retool as necessary. It is recommended that the regional indicators presented in this report be collected
and compared to planned targets every two years until 2030, then every five years thereafter.
While it is the goal of EP CAP to achieve total communitywide decarbonization by 2050, efforts that
work to achieve this goal ahead of 2050 should be sought out and diligently pursued. Furthermore, The
City shall make periodic updates to the CAP after communitywide emission data is collected to ensure
the 2050 goal is achieved or to accelerate achievement to a more near term date.

INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND
In 2019, the City of Eden Prairie partnered with LHB Corporation to develop a Climate Action Plan with a
goal of becoming carbon neutral by 2050. To accomplish this effort historical energy use and carbon
dioxide equivalent (CO2e) emissions were evaluated and contrasted to predict future annual emissions.
This involved the use of a Wedge Diagram Tool developed by Minnesota’s Local Government Project for
Energy Planning. The wedge diagram models actionable strategies for energy and greenhouse gas
emission reductions and helps prioritize impactful strategies, understand implementation pathways,
outline a plan for action, and measure progress toward goals.
After reviewing historic baseline data and determining business-as-usual forecasts, a series of strategies
were developed and modeled with the Wedge Diagram Tool that showed significant reductions in
carbon emissions in the categories of commercial/industrial efficiency, residential efficiency, electric grid
mix changes, renewable energy strategies, fuel switching in buildings, travel, and waste
commercial/industrial. Next, the wedge diagram results were shared with the Eden Prairie Conservation
Commission who then provided input on actionable steps that could be taken in support these key
carbon reduction strategies.
Through this effort a menu of actions were developed and categorized as either encouragement,
regulation, incentive or leadership. Encouragement action items are defined as those which the City
publically promotes to aid in awareness, publicizes to draw attention to, to participates in to assist with
education and outreach. Regulation action items are defined as efforts that involve the City mandating
through the establishment of standards, rules, policies or ordinances. Regulation action could also
involve the City advocating for other regulatory agencies to develop standards, rules, policies or
statutes. Incentive actions are defined as measures that work to motivate others to take steps they
otherwise might not. This often times include financial incentives but can also consist of providing
technical assistance or priority treatments. Finally, leadership action items are those where the City is
taking a forward role in demonstrating best practices or implanting new technologies as a means of
demonstration.
BASELINE DATA
Baseline emissions data are gathered through the Regional Indicators Initiative in compliance with the
U.S. Community Protocol for Accounting and Reporting of Greenhouse Gas Emissions produced by ICLEI.
The baseline greenhouse gas emissions inventories include:
Energy: Emissions from non-travel energy consumed within city boundaries. Each energy utility
serving customers within the city provides annual totals for citywide electricity use, natural gas
use, and district heating and cooling (if applicable), broken down between residential and
commercial/industrial uses. Emissions are calculated based on the emissions factors associated
with each energy source. Electricity emissions factors vary over time based on the energy
sources used for generation. When available, electricity emissions factors are utility-specific;
otherwise, regional averages from eGRID subregion MRO West are used.1
Travel: Emissions caused by on-road vehicle travel within city boundaries. Vehicle miles traveled
are measured by the Minnesota Department of Transportation and publicly reported at the city
scale.2 The associated greenhouse gas emissions are calculated based on the historic vehicle
fleet mix for urban areas of Minnesota, annual national averages for fuel economy, and
statewide biofuel characteristics.
Eden Prairie Climate Action Plan 2020 7
Waste: Emissions caused by the generation and management of municipal solid waste. Solid
waste data is collected by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency at the county scale and is
estimated for cities using the county's per capita rate. Associated emissions are calculated based
on the waste management method.
The summary of Eden Prairie historical emissions can be found in Figure 4 – Baseline Emissions. The full
methodology for determining baseline greenhouse gas emissions can be found at the Regional
Indicators Initiative website (www.regionalindicatorsmn.com).
Figure 4 – Baseline Emissions
BUSINESS-AS-USUAL FORECAST
The business-as-usual emissions forecast is based upon predicted city growth, assuming current
efficiency levels (energy, travel, waste per person) and carbon intensities (GHG per unit of energy
consumed, miles travelled, waste managed) remain constant. This approach enables efficiency and
decarbonization improvements to be accounted for in the reduction wedges, whether these
improvements are legislatively mandated, market-driven, or voluntary.
Business-as-usual energy emissions are estimated by:
1. Calculating the 3-year moving average residential energy consumption per person and
commercial/industrial energy consumption per job from the baseline data for natural gas and
electricity.
2. Multiplying the normalized energy consumption from Step 1 by future population and jobs
estimates, respectively, to get the total expected energy consumption.

3. Multiplying the total expected energy consumption by the most recent emissions factors for
electricity and natural gas, respectively, to get the total expected energy emissions.
Business-as-usual travel emissions are estimated by:
1. Calculating the 3-year moving average vehicle miles traveled (VMT) per person from the
baseline data.
2. Multiplying the VMT/person from Step 1 by future population estimates to get the total
expected vehicle miles traveled.
3. Multiplying the total expected vehicle miles traveled by the most recent emissions factor for
vehicle travel to get the total expected travel emissions.
Business-as-usual waste emissions are estimated by:
1. Calculating the 3-year moving average municipal solid waste (MSW) per person from the
baseline data.
2. Multiplying the MSW/person from Step 1 by future population estimates to get the total
expected municipal solid waste.
3. Multiplying the total expected municipal solid waste by the most recent emissions factor for
waste management to get the total expected waste emissions.
The baseline energy consumption, vehicle miles traveled, demographic data, and emissions factors are
from the Regional Indicators Initiative data. Population and job forecasts are from the Metropolitan
Council’s “Population, Households and Employment Forecasts to 2040, Twin Cities Metropolitan Area”
(August 28, 2019).3 Since these projections are only through 2040, a linear forecast was used to estimate
out to 2050.
Eden Prairie Population, Households, and Employment Forecasts:
2020 2030 2040 2050
Population 67,900 75,200 82,400 89,670
Households 27,400 30,400 33,300 36,267
Employment 64,000 68,000 72,500 76,650
Since different portfolios of reduction strategies are available to new buildings versus existing buildings,
the business-as-usual energy use needs to be divided between new and existing buildings to effectively
calculate the reduction wedges. The new construction rates for Eden Prairie were calculated based on
information from the City’s comprehensive plan for 2040. Commercial and industrial new construction
rates were estimated using planned growth in the commercial, office/light industrial, and industrial land
use categories.4 Growth in each of the land use categories was weighted equally since each is assigned
the same maximum floor area ratio (FAR) by City ordinance.5
Residential new construction rates were estimated by:
1. Calculating the number of new housing units needed to serve the City’s projected growth in
households, assuming the current vacancy rate is held constant.6,7
2. Determining the number of new housing units that will be single-family homes based on the
available land for low-density housing and the minimum density.8,9
3. Assuming the remaining housing units will be high-density.
Eden Prairie Climate Action Plan 2020 9
4. Weighting the new low-density and high-density housing units based on how their predicted
size (sf) compares to the average size of the existing housing stock in the City to account for the
lower energy use of high-density housing.10,11,12
Since the comprehensive plan projections only extend to 2040, the new construction rates are assumed
to stay constant between 2040 and 2050. In 2050, this methodology results in 48% of the city’s
commercial building stock and 26% of the city’s residential stock being built after 2017.

2017-2020 2021-2030 2031-2050
Commercial/Industrial 9.34% 1.08% 0.75%
Residential 1.83% 0.60% 0.52%

electricity, business natural gas and business electricity can be found in Figure 5 - Business-As-Usual
Emissions.

Strategy Interactions
Climate planning should be approached through a combination of efficiency and decarbonization.
However, if the savings from efficiency and decarbonization are both calculated based on the business-
as-usual consumption and emissions factors, the savings would be double-counted. To avoid this,
savings are applied first to efficiency strategies, then to decarbonization strategies. For building energy,
this approach first applies savings to efficiency strategies, then electric grid mix strategies, then to
renewable energy strategies, and finally to fuel switching strategies. In essence, efficiency savings are
based on business-as-usual energy use and business-as-usual emissions factors. Electric grid mix
strategies are based on planned energy use and business-as-usual emissions factors. Renewable energy
strategies are based on planned energy use and planned emissions factors. A similar approach is used
within the travel sector to first apply savings from mode shift and then electrification.
In addition to these big picture strategy interactions, there are also several overlaps between strategies
within a single category. These interactions are described in the respective category sections.
Definitions
The following terms are used in the calculation of the savings potential associated with each strategy.
Emission reduction
For each strategy, the emission reduction represents the reduction in tonnes of carbon dioxide
equivalents (tCO2e) from the business-as-usual forecast.
Building energy use
Building energy use refers to the amount of energy used in buildings, in million British thermal units
(MMBtu). This is the first data point needed for the energy efficiency strategies, and is typically
separated into commercial and industrial buildings versus residential buildings, as well as existing
versus new versus renovated buildings. For strategies that have different savings rates based on fuel
type, building energy use may also be separated between electricity and natural gas.
While Business-As-Usual (BAU) building energy use is used as the starting point for all efficiency
strategies, planned building energy use is the starting point for decarbonization strategies. Planned
Example
In 2030, Community A has a business-as-usual energy use of 1000 MMBtu and a business-as-usual
emissions factor of 0.10 tCO2e/MMBtu. Community A commits to efficiency strategies that reduce
energy use by 25% by 2030 and plan to install enough on-site photovoltaics to generate 100 MMBtu
per year. The energy utility that serves Community A commits to reducing their emissions factor by
30% by 2030.
Energy Efficiency Reduction: 1000 MMBtu x 25% x 0.10 tCO2e/MMBtu = 25 tCO2e
Electric Grid Mix Reduction: 750 MMBtu x 0.10 tCO2e/MMBtu x 30% = 22.5 tCO2e
On-Site Photovoltaics Reduction: 100 MMBtu x 0.07 tCO2e/MMBtu = 7 tCO2e
Eden Prairie Climate Action Plan 2020 11
building energy use is defined as the amount of energy anticipated after all efficiency and fuel
switching strategies are applied.
Participation rate
Participation rates are defined as the percentage of people or buildings adopting the given strategy,
assuming all households operate at the same energy intensity, and all jobs have equivalent energy
intensities. Since this is not true (especially for commercial/industrial buildings), the participation
rate is more accurately described as the percentage of energy use that will be affected by the
strategy. For example, if large commercial buildings comprise 25% of the building stock, but use 50%
of the energy, a strategy that targets all large commercial buildings would use a participation rate of
50%.
For one-time strategies such as equipment replacement or retrofits, participation rates are
distributed equally across the time period selected for strategy adoption. For example, a
participation rate of 15% for building retrofits from 2025-2040 would result in a 1% annual
participation rate. For ongoing strategies such as behavior change or green power purchase,
participation rates are assigned to each year of the designated time period. For example, a
participation rate of 15% for behavior change from 2025-2040 would result in a 15% annual
participation rate.
Energy savings rate
Energy savings rates are defined as the reduction in energy use from the BAU based upon the given
strategy. Depending on the strategy, there may be separate energy savings rates for electricity
versus natural gas.
Emission factor
Emission factors refer to the emissions intensity of each unit of energy consumed, in tonnes of
carbon dioxide equivalent per million British thermal unit (tCO2e/MMBtu). Since natural gas
emission factors do not vary substantially over time, the emissions factor for natural gas remains
constant at 0.05 tCO2e/MMBtu.13 The emission intensity of electricity changes based on the primary
energy used to generate the electricity. In this analysis, electricity supplied through the grid is
assigned an emissions factor that changes over time based on the anticipated portfolio mix of each
utility serving the community. Electricity supplied through renewable energy – whether from green
power purchase or on-site renewables – are assigned an emissions factor of zero.
While the Business-As-Usual (BAU) emissions factor is used to determine emissions savings for all
efficiency strategies, the planned emissions factor is the starting point for decarbonization
strategies. The planned emissions factor is the anticipated emissions factor of the grid, after
applying the electric grid mix strategies.
A summary of community-wide planned emissions reduction in Eden Prairie can be found in Figure 6 -
Planned Emissions Reduction and Figure 7 - Planned Emissions.

Persistence of Strategies
Persistence is defined as the effectiveness and longevity of reduction strategies after the initial
implementation period. Savings from one-time strategies that are based on installed technology (e.g.
Net-Zero Energy Buildings and Appliance, Equipment, and Fixture Efficiency) are typically assumed to
persist throughout the planning horizon, reflecting the lifetime of the energy-saving building component
or device. Savings from strategies that rely on the continued engagement of the building operator or
occupants (e.g. Energy-Efficient Operations and Behavior Change) are assumed to be contingent on
continued participation. Assumptions regarding persistence are described for each strategy in the
documentation below. A summary of actions steps supporting Eden Prairie’s carbon reduction
strategies is found in the various tables below.
1. COMMERCIAL/INDUSTRIAL ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Increased energy efficiency in commercial and industrial new construction, renovations, and existing
buildings can be achieved by improving the building’s thermal envelope, using more efficient
equipment, appliances, and fixtures, and using these devices more efficiently.
Strategy Interactions:
- The savings from these efficiency strategies are based on the business-as-usual emissions factor
rather than the planned emissions factor.
- Savings from Energy Code Enforcement are applied before Net-Zero Energy Buildings, so that the
savings from Net-Zero Energy Buildings are compared to the planned energy code, rather than
compared directly to the business-as-usual.
- Buildings constructed within the planning horizon are not eligible for strategies for existing
buildings. For example, a building constructed in 2025 can achieve ongoing savings through
compliance with the energy code, but cannot achieve additional savings through efficient building
operations. While this may underestimate the total savings potential for a new building, it avoids
double-counting.
- The remaining commercial/industrial efficiency strategies are defined in a way that avoids overlap.
For example, Energy-Efficient Retrofits include actions related to replacing or enhancing
components of the building’s thermal envelope, mechanical systems, lighting fixtures, and
appliances. Efficient Building Operations addresses operations and maintenance practices that are
typically within the control of a building operator, while actions that are controlled by building
occupants are included in Behavior Change.
1.1. Energy Code Enforcement
New construction and renovation projects in Minnesota are required to comply with the Minnesota
Energy Code. In 2015, Minnesota adopted the 2012 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC),
which identifies energy conservation requirements for building envelopes and systems and references
ASHRAE 90.1-2010 as a compliance pathway. This strategy estimates the emissions savings from the
increased energy efficiency of a new building that complies with the current energy code as compared
to a baseline building. To avoid double-counting with other strategies, renovations are not included
within this strategy.
Assumptions:
- The methodology for predicting energy use from new construction is described in the “Business-As-
Usual Forecast” section at the beginning of this document.
Eden Prairie Climate Action Plan 2020 14
- All new construction and renovations comply with the energy code. This is an improvement from
the average Minnesota compliance rate, which was 91.8% for commercial buildings in 2012-2013.14
The interim participation rates are:
2020 2030 2040 2050
Participation Rate 100% 100% 100% 100%
- New buildings that comply with the energy code achieve 34.5% energy savings in comparison with
the average baseline building.15 This assumes the energy performance of the average baseline
building is comparable to the ASHRAE 90.1-1989 energy code – which was in effect from 1991 to
2009 – and that meeting Minnesota’s current energy code is equivalent to meeting ASHRAE 90.1-
2010.16
- Although new versions of the energy code typically go into effect in Minnesota every 6 years, future
energy code improvements are not modeled as part of this strategy. Commercial building energy
savings have historically ranged from 3.2-11.9% for each 3-year code update.17
- Energy savings rates are applied equally to natural gas and electricity.
- Energy savings associated with energy-efficient building design and construction are expected to
persist over the lifetime of the building.
1.2. Net-Zero Energy Buildings
This strategy involves meeting more aggressive energy performance thresholds for new construction
than required by the current Energy Code, with the goal of producing as much energy on-site as is used.
This concept is called net-zero energy. Based on the Architecture 2030 Challenge, this strategy models
stepped energy performance targets for new buildings that lead to net-zero energy building design by
2030. To avoid double-counting with other strategies, renovations are not included within this strategy.
Minnesota has implemented a unique example of a net-zero energy standard through a program called
Sustainable Buildings 2030 (SB 2030), which is currently required on projects that receive general
obligation bond funding from the State of Minnesota. There are several ways to expand this strategy to
include additional buildings. Individual projects can elect to pursue aggressive performance targets
(which may be incentivized through utility programs). Cities can require compliance with a green
building policy for their own buildings and other projects that receive financial support or regulatory
approval from the city. At the statewide scale, the building code can be revised to either adopt a more
aggressive energy code or to provide a stretch code as an option that can be adopted by local
jurisdictions.
Assumptions:
- The methodology for predicting energy use from new construction is described in the “Business-As-
Usual Forecast” section at the beginning of this document.
- The city achieves a participation rate of 100% by 2032, which assumes that net-zero energy is a
requirement of Minnesota’s building code by then. The interim participation rates are:
2020 2030 2040 2050
Participation Rate 0% 5% 80% 100%
- The energy emissions savings rate increases over time, mimicking the savings anticipated through
complying with SB 2030 and assuming a lag time between building design and occupancy. For
example, a building that starts schematic design in 2030 would be designed to be net-zero energy,
Eden Prairie Climate Action Plan 2020 15
but may not actually be built and operational until 2035. The savings values are slightly different
than the stated SB 2030 savings of 70%, 80%, and 90% due to a different baseline being used. SB
2030 uses a 2003 building, which has been estimated to be 10% worse than a building meeting
ASHRAE 90.1 1989. The baseline building used here is assumed to meet ASHRAE 90.1 1989.
2020 2025 2030 2035 2040
Energy Emissions Savings Rate 67% 78% 89% 100% 100%
- To avoid double-counting, energy emissions savings are adjusted from the user input to remove
savings associated with energy code enforcement (Strategy 1.1).
- On-site renewable electricity is calculated based on the assumption that energy emissions savings of
84% can be achieved through efficiency.18 The remaining 16% required to achieve net zero energy
will need to be fulfilled by renewable energy generation.
- Renewable energy generation savings are based on the planned electricity emissions factor, rather
than the BAU emissions factor.
- Energy savings rates are applied equally to natural gas and electricity.
- Energy savings associated with energy-efficient building design and construction are expected to
persist over the lifetime of the building.
1.3. Energy-Efficient Retrofits
Commercial building retrofits are defined here as building envelope improvements and/or replacement
of mechanical equipment, lighting fixtures, or appliances that results in improved energy efficiency. This
strategy applies to existing buildings only, and not to new construction.
Assumptions:
- This strategy models the energy savings from achieving the targets described in Eden Prairie’s
Energy Action Plan for participation in Xcel Energy’s conservation programs for electricity and
CenterPoint’s conservation programs for natural gas: “By 2025, 50 percent of the largest
commercial/industrial energy users participate in Xcel Energy conservation programs.”19
Annual savings from conservation program participation in the specified year:20
2020 2025 2030-2050
Electricity (MMBtu) 18,766 24,566 27,637
Natural Gas (MMBtu) 17,200 21,900 25,200
- Assuming the average participating business will complete 2.75 conservation programs, this will
result in 84% of businesses participating by 2050. Percent of businesses that have participated in
conservation programs for their existing buildings by the specified year:
2020 2030 2040 2050
Participation Rate 6% 31% 57% 84%
- Energy savings from energy-efficient retrofits are assumed to persist over the lifetime of the building
since these savings are not dependent on occupant behavior.
Eden Prairie Climate Action Plan 2020 16
1.4. Efficient Building Operations
Low to no-cost improvements in energy efficiency can be achieved through building operations by
optimizing temperature setpoints and setback schedules and conducting equipment maintenance and
diagnostics. In addition to regular diagnostic tasks conducted by the building operator, efficient building
operations may also include periodic re-commissioning, during which a certified professional will
systematically identify and remedy energy wasting malfunctions.
Assumptions:
- By 2025, 85% of the city’s commercial and industrial buildings are actively engaged in building
operations BMPs. This is based on the ultimate net participation rate estimated in a national study
for commercial building operations and performance programs.21 This is described as an “aggressive
but reasonable level of participation.” The interim participation rates are:
2020 2030 2040 2050
Participation Rate 40% 85% 85% 85%
- The Energy Savings Rate is 23%. This reflects the savings potential simulated by the New Buildings
Institute for implementing best practices for commissioning, operations, and maintenance in a mid-
size office building in Minneapolis and Duluth.22 This is on the conservative end of the savings
potential of 23-30% modeled on a national scale by the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory.23
- The persistence of savings for this strategy relies on the continued implementation of energy-
efficient operation practices. If the participation rate drops, savings achieved in previous years will
not persist. This may slightly underestimate the continued savings from this strategy; the average
persistence for retrocommissioning programs range from 5-7 years, and a 3-year life is assumed for
programs like strategic energy management.24
1.5. Behavior Change
Businesses and industries can reduce their energy consumption through actions such as using smart
power strips and power management strategies to reduce plug loads, turning off lights and computers,
using operable windows and blinds to control heat gain, and adjusting temperature setpoints. These
actions can be supported through behavior change programs that are based on information, education,
and/or social interaction.25 Examples of behavior change programs include real time feedback,
competitions, and strategic energy management led by an energy champion.
Assumptions:
- By 2025, occupants of 33% of the city’s commercial/industrial buildings are engaged in sustained
behavior change strategies. This has been estimated as the adoption rate of strategic energy
management in 2030.26 The interim participation rates are:
2020 2030 2040 2050
Participation Rate 0% 33% 33% 33%
- The average percentage reduction in energy consumption for businesses engaged in behavior
change activities is 5%. This is within the range of savings typically achieved through real-time
feedback (1%-15%), persuasive messaging (1.2%-8%), competitions (1.8%-21%), and in-person
strategies (4.4%-27%).27
Eden Prairie Climate Action Plan 2020 17
- The energy savings rate is applied equally to natural gas and electricity. In practice, commercial
behavior change programs often achieve higher savings in electricity than natural gas – whether due
to being targeted at electricity only, or due to the types of actions taken.28
- The energy savings rate is assumed to be constant over time. This does not account for variations in
savings as programs ramp-up or as the participants’ engagement level changes.29
- Long-term persistence rates for behavior change strategies are currently unknown, but are likely to
depend on the duration of user exposure to the program.30,31 Here, the persistence of savings for
this strategy is assumed to rely on the continued implementation of behavior-based energy
management.
1.6. Total Estimated Commercial/Industrial Energy Efficiency Emissions Reduction
Through the strategies of energy code enforcement, net-zero energy buildings, energy-efficient retrofits,
efficient building operations and behavior change, commercial and industrial facilities in Eden Prairie
could attain an emissions reduction of 286,208 tonnes of CO2e by 2050. This represents 28.5% of all
emissions in the Eden Prairie business-as-usual model. Predicted results for each strategy in the
commercial/industrial category are detailed in Figure 8 – Estimated Commercial/Industrial Energy
Efficiency Emissions Reduction.

2. RESIDENTIAL ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Increased energy efficiency in residential new construction, renovations, and existing buildings can be
achieved by improving the building’s thermal envelope, using more efficient equipment, appliances, and
fixtures for space conditioning, lighting, cooking, and entertainment, and using these devices more
efficiently.
Strategy Interactions:
- The savings from these efficiency strategies are based on the business-as-usual emissions factor
rather than the planned emissions factor.
- Savings from Energy Code Enforcement are applied before Net-Zero Energy Buildings, so that the
savings from Net-Zero Energy Buildings are compared to the planned energy code, rather than
compared directly to the business-as-usual.
2.1. Energy Code Enforcement
New construction and renovation projects in Minnesota are required to comply with the Minnesota
Energy Code. In 2015, Minnesota adopted the 2012 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC),
which identifies energy conservation requirements for building envelopes and systems. This strategy
estimates the emissions savings from the increased energy efficiency of a residential building that
complies with the current energy code as compared to a baseline building. To avoid double-counting
with other strategies, renovations are not included within this strategy.
Eden Prairie Climate Action Plan 2020 19
Assumptions:
- The methodology for predicting energy use from new construction and renovations is described in
the “Business-As-Usual Forecast” section at the beginning of this document.
- All new construction complies with the energy code. This is an improvement from the average
Minnesota compliance rate, which was 76.8% for residential buildings in 2012-2013.32 The interim
participation rates are:
2020 2030 2040 2050
Participation Rate 100% 100% 100% 100%
- New buildings that comply with the energy code achieve 38.5% energy savings in comparison with
the average baseline building.33 This assumes the energy performance of the average baseline
building is comparable to the 1989 Model Energy Code (MEC) – which was in effect during the 1990s
– and that meeting Minnesota’s current energy code is equivalent to meeting 2012 IECC.34
- Although new versions of the energy code typically go into effect in Minnesota every 6 years, future
energy code improvements are not modeled as part of this strategy.
- Energy savings rates are applied equally to natural gas and electricity.
- Energy savings associated with energy-efficient building design and construction are expected to
persist over the lifetime of the building.
2.2. Net-Zero Energy Buildings
This strategy involves meeting more aggressive energy performance thresholds for new construction
than required by the current Energy Code, with the goal of producing as much energy on-site as is used.
This concept is called net-zero energy. Based on the Architecture 2030 Challenge, this strategy models
stepped energy performance targets for new buildings that lead to net-zero energy building design by
2030. To avoid double-counting with other strategies, renovations are not included within this strategy.
Minnesota has implemented a unique example of a net-zero energy standard through a program called
Sustainable Buildings 2030 (SB 2030), which is currently required on projects that receive general
obligation bond funding from the State of Minnesota. There are several ways to expand this strategy to
include additional buildings. Individual projects can elect to pursue aggressive performance targets
(which may be incentivized through utility programs). Cities can require compliance with a green
building policy for their own buildings and other projects that receive financial support or regulatory
approval from the city. At the statewide scale, the building code can be revised to either adopt a more
aggressive energy code or to provide a stretch code as an option that can be adopted by local
jurisdictions.
Assumptions:
- The methodology for predicting energy use from new construction is described in the “Business-As-
Usual Forecast” section at the beginning of this document.
- The city achieves a participation rate of 100% by 2032, which assumes that net-zero energy is a
requirement of Minnesota’s building code by then. The interim participation rates are:
2020 2030 2040 2050
Participation Rate 0% 5% 80% 100%
- The energy emissions savings rate increases over time, mimicking the savings anticipated through
complying with SB 2030 and assuming a lag time between building design and occupancy. For
Eden Prairie Climate Action Plan 2020 20
example, a building that starts schematic design in 2030 would be designed to be net-zero energy,
but may not actually be built and operational until 2035. The savings values are slightly different
than the stated SB 2030 savings of 70%, 80%, and 90% due to a different baseline being used. SB
2030 uses a 2003 building, which has been estimated to be 10% worse than a building meeting 1989
MEC. The baseline building used here is assumed to meet 1989 MEC.
2020 2025 2030 2035 2040
Energy Emissions Savings Rate 67% 78% 89% 100% 100%
- To avoid double-counting, energy emissions savings are adjusted from the user input to remove
savings associated with energy code enforcement (Strategy 1.1).
- On-site renewable electricity is calculated based on the assumption that energy emissions savings of
80% can be achieved through efficiency.35 The remaining 20% required to achieve net zero energy
will need to be fulfilled by renewable energy generation.
- Renewable energy generation savings are based on the planned electricity emissions factor, rather
than the BAU emissions factor.
- Energy savings rates are applied equally to natural gas and electricity.
- Energy savings associated with energy-efficient building design and construction are expected to
persist over the lifetime of the building.
2.3. Energy-Efficient Retrofits
Residential building retrofits are defined here as weatherization and/or replacement of mechanical
equipment, lighting fixtures, or appliances that results in improved energy efficiency. Programs such as
home energy audits can help homeowners identify and prioritize impactful upgrades. This strategy
applies to existing homes only, and not to new construction.
Assumptions:
- This strategy models the energy savings from achieving the targets described in Eden Prairie’s
Energy Action Plan for participation in Xcel Energy’s conservation programs for electricity and
CenterPoint’s conservation programs for natural gas: “By 2025, 75 percent of Eden Prairie
households will participate in a renewable energy or energy efficiency program.”36
Annual savings from conservation program participation in the specified year:37
2020 2025 2030-2050
Electricity (MMBtu) 3,398 3,276 3,020
Natural Gas (MMBtu) 18,600 18,600 18,200
- Assuming the average participating household will complete 2.25 conservation programs, this will
result in 82% of businesses participating by 2050. Percent of households that have participated in
conservation programs for their existing buildings by the specified year:
2020 2030 2040 2050
Participation Rate 8% 34% 58% 82%
- Energy savings from thermal envelope improvements are assumed to persist over the lifetime of the
building since these savings are not dependent on occupant behavior.
Eden Prairie Climate Action Plan 2020 21
2.4. Behavior Change
Residents can reduce their household energy consumption through actions such as turning off lights and
computers, using operable windows and blinds to control heat gain, and adjusting temperature
setpoints. These actions can be supported through behavior change programs that are based on
information, education, and/or social interaction.38 Examples of behavior change programs include
home energy reports that encourage conformation to social norms by comparing a household’s energy
use to that of its neighbors, real time feedback, and competitions.
Assumptions:
- By 2025, 98% of the city’s households will be actively engaged in behavior change. These
participation rates can be achieved through behavior change programs, which may be implemented
as “opt-out” programs – in which all residents participate unless they request to be excluded – or
“opt-in” programs in which residents actively choose to participate. Opt-in programs typically have
lower participation rates (20%) than opt-out programs (98%).39 The interim participation rates are:
2020 2030 2040 2050
Participation Rate 0% 98% 98% 98%
- The average percentage reduction in energy consumption for households engaged in behavior
change activities is 1.6%. Energy savings for behavior change programs vary based on program
design, with higher per-customer savings achieved through opt-in programs than through opt-out
programs. While savings from opt-in home energy report programs can reach as high as 16%, opt-
out program savings range from 1.2-2.2% for electricity and 0.3-1.6% for natural gas.40 This is similar
to the savings seen from real-time feedback, with demonstrated savings of 1% and a theoretical
maximum potential of up to 17%.41 Savings from residential competitions range from 0.7-14% for
electricity and 0.4-10% for natural gas, with most achieving savings of 5% or less.42
- The energy savings rate is applied equally to natural gas and electricity. In practice, residential
behavior change programs often achieve higher savings in electricity than natural gas – whether due
to being targeted at electricity only, or due to the types of actions taken.43
- The energy savings rate is assumed to be constant over time. This does not account for variations in
savings as programs ramp-up or as the participants’ engagement level changes.44
- The persistence of savings for this strategy relies on the continued implementation of behavioral
practices.45 If the participation rate drops, savings achieved in previous years will not persist.46
2.5. Total Estimated Residential Energy Efficiency Emissions Reduction
Through the strategies of energy code enforcement, net-zero energy buildings, energy-efficient retrofits,
and behavior change, residential buildings in Eden Prairie could attain an emissions reduction of 75,815
tonnes of CO2e by 2050. This represents 7.5% of all emissions in the Eden Prairie business-as-usual
model. Predicted results for each strategy in the residential category are detailed in Figure 9 –
Estimated Residential Energy Efficiency Emissions Reduction.

3. ELECTRIC GRID MIX
With the majority of non-travel energy emissions attributed to electricity consumption, strategies that
impact the electric generation sector have the potential to result in significant savings. This wedge
includes strategies that shift the primary energy used to generate electricity for the grid to less carbon-
intensive sources.
Strategy Interactions:
- The savings from these strategies are based on planned – not business-as-usual – electricity use.
Increasing energy efficiency will decrease the savings from these strategies.
- Electric grid mix strategies are treated independently from the renewable energy strategies. It is
assumed that the renewable energy strategies occur in addition to electric grid mix changes, rather
than counting local renewable energy generation toward system-wide emissions reduction goals.
This reflects current practice for green power purchase programs in which the renewable energy
credit (REC) is owned by the end customer, but may result in an overestimate of savings when RECs
are owned by the utility, which is often the case for community solar projects.
- To avoid double-counting, the emissions savings from any displaced electricity achieved through the
Renewable Energy strategies are based on the planned emissions intensity of the grid, which is
selected in this section. For example, if the grid mix is less clean, the savings from an on-site
photovoltaic system will be greater.
3.1. Xcel Energy’s Planned Emissions Reductions
Minnesota's Renewable Energy Standard requires electric utilities to procure at least 25% of their
portfolio from renewable sources by 2025. This has resulted in a reduction in the electricity emissions
factor during the baseline time period, and will continue to achieve reductions through 2025. In addition
to these legislated savings, electric utilities impact their emissions factor through other portfolio
management decisions, such as switching from coal-fired power plants to natural gas. This strategy is
based on the projected emissions factors identified by electric utilities in their Integrated Resource Plans
(IRPs).47
Assumptions:
- Xcel Energy’s future emissions factors for 2020-2034 are based on the five-state Northern States
Power Company System.48 For 2035-2050, the emissions reductions follow a linear trajectory to
Xcel’s stated goal of carbon-free by 2050.49
Planned Emissions Factor Savings Rates:
2020 2025 2030 2035 2040 2045 2050
Xcel Energy 5% 36% 73% 71% 79% 85% 100%
3.2. Total Estimated Electric Grid Mix Emissions Reduction
Through Xcel Energy’s planned emissions reduction strategies the electric grid mix in Eden Prairie could
attain an emissions reduction of 148,051 tonnes of CO2e by 2050. This represents 14.7% of all emissions
Eden Prairie Climate Action Plan 2020 24
in the Eden Prairie business-as-usual model. Predicted results for these strategies are detailed in Figure
10 – Estimated Electric Grid Mix Emissions Reduction.

4. RENEWABLE ENERGY
In addition to the energy transition occurring at the scale of the electric grid, local commitment to
renewable energy can contribute to emissions reductions. This wedge includes strategies such as green
power purchase by residents and businesses as well as on-site renewable installations.
Strategy Interactions:
- The savings from these strategies are based on planned – not business-as-usual – electricity use.
Increasing energy efficiency will decrease the savings from these strategies.
- Renewable energy strategies are limited to meet a maximum of 100% of the community’s energy
demand, meaning that excess energy production cannot be used to offset other sources. This does
not reflect current practice – in which a household with solar panels could be a net-positive energy
prosumer – and may not reflect the community’s approach to carbon accounting.
- It is assumed that the renewable energy strategies occur in addition to electric grid mix changes,
rather than counting local renewable energy generation toward system-wide emissions reduction
goals. This reflects current practice for green power purchase programs in which the renewable
energy credit (REC) is owned by the end customer, but may result in an overestimate of savings
when RECs are owned by the utility, which is often the case for community solar projects.
- The savings from renewable energy strategies are based on the planned emissions intensity of the
grid, which is specified in the electric grid mix wedge. If the grid mix is less carbon-intensive, the
savings from additional renewable energy will be reduced.
- The selected renewable energy strategies are combined with the selected electric grid mix strategy
to determine the planned carbon intensity of energy used within the community. This planned
carbon intensity is used to calculate savings from the fuel switching strategies. For example, if
residents switched from natural gas water heaters to electric water heaters, the resulting electricity
use is assigned an emissions factor that accounts for both green power purchase and a cleaner grid.
4.1. On-Site Photovoltaics
Minnesota has a goal of meeting 1.5% of its annual electricity consumption through solar energy by
2020 and 10% by 2030.50 Building owners may elect to install photovoltaic panels on their roofs to
reduce their electricity costs and carbon footprint. The generated electricity can either be used on site,
which may require energy storage, or sold back to the grid. This strategy is dependent on the amount of
viable rooftop area within the community that receives adequate solar energy. As a state, Minnesota
has the technical potential to meet 38.5% of its annual electricity consumption through rooftop
photovoltaics.51
Assumptions:
- By 2030, the city meets 10% of its electricity load through on-site photovoltaics, in line with the
Statewide goal. By 2025, it meets 5% of its electricity load through on-site photovoltaics. The
interim participation rates are:
2020 2030 2040 2050
Participation Rate 10% 10% 10% 10%
- There is 401,690 MWh of rooftop solar resource available within city boundaries, which represents
16% of 2017 city-wide electricity use.52 This was calculated through a GIS analysis of the Minnesota
Solar Suitability App.53
Eden Prairie Climate Action Plan 2020 26
- After energy efficiency and fuel switching strategies are applied, achieving 10% of citywide
electricity from on-site photovoltaics would require a rooftop utilization rate of 57% in 2030, 64% in
2040, and 66% in 2050. The rooftop utilization rate is the percentage of the total viable rooftop solar
resource utilized for photovoltaic panels
- To distribute emissions savings between sectors, it is assumed that the ratio of
commercial/industrial solar to residential solar is equal to the ratio of commercial/industrial
electricity usage to residential electricity usage. This does not impact the overall size of the wedge,
but does impact the amount of grid-based electricity remaining in each sector that is eligible for
green power purchase.
4.2. Green Power Purchase – Commercial/Industrial
Commercial and industrial customers that purchase electricity from a utility company can participate in
voluntary programs that allow them to purchase a portion of their electricity from renewable energy
sources. In Minnesota, utility green tariff programs and community solar gardens (CSGs) are two options
for consumers seeking to purchase renewable electricity.54
Assumptions:
- Programs currently available in the city include WindSource and Renewable Connect. Participation
rates in these programs through 2045 are projected based on linear growth from 2015-2018
community-wide participation. Green power purchase is expected to become obsolete when the
electricity grid is carbon-free in 2050.
2020 2030 2040 2050
Participation Rates 0.07% 0.09% 0.11% 0%
- The sum of carbon-neutral electricity achieved through on-site photovoltaics and green power
purchase does not exceed the total planned electricity.
4.3. Green Power Purchase – Residential
Residential customers that purchase electricity from a utility company can participate in voluntary
programs that allow them to purchase a portion of their electricity from renewable energy sources. In
Minnesota, utility green tariff programs and community solar gardens (CSGs) are two options for
consumers seeking to purchase renewable electricity.55
Assumptions:
- Programs currently available in the city include WindSource and Renewable Connect. Participation
rates in these programs through 2025 are based on the participation goals from Eden Prairie’s
Energy Action Plan.56 Future years are based on a linear growth in the percentage of subscribed
energy based on 2015-2018 community-wide data. Green power purchase is expected to become
obsolete when the electricity grid is carbon-free in 2050.
2020 2030 2040 2050
Participation Rates 1.5% 2.9% 5.2% 0%
- The sum of carbon-neutral electricity achieved through on-site photovoltaics and green power
purchase does not exceed the total planned electricity.
Eden Prairie Climate Action Plan 2020 27
4.4. Total Estimated Renewable Energy Emissions Reduction
Through the strategies of on-site renewable electricity, business green power purchase and residential
green power purchase, local renewable energy emission reductions in Eden Prairie would ultimately fall
to near zero tonnes of CO2e by 2050. Annual savings of 8,969 tonnes are achieved in earlier years, but
by 2050 the electric grid becomes decarbonized. This renders green power purchases obsolete while on-
site renewable energy systems become less common. Predicted results for each strategy in the
renewable energy category are detailed in Figure 11 – Estimated Renewable Energy Emissions
Reduction.

4.5. Renewable Energy Emissions Reduction Actions
Several actions will need to be taken to achieve the desired results outlined in the renewable energy
emission reduction strategies. These actions will target local commitments to renewable energy.

5. FUEL SWITCHING – BUILDINGS
With over a fifth of the state’s energy emissions coming from fuel combustion in homes, businesses, and
industries, to achieve aggressive greenhouse gas reduction targets these emissions must be addressed.57
In addition to efficiency strategies to reduce the amount of energy need for space heating, water
heating, cooking, and industrial processes, the energy for these needs can be met through less carbon-
intensive sources. Natural gas is currently less carbon-intensive than electricity in Minnesota. However,
as the electricity grid transitions to renewable energy sources, it will become less carbon-intensive than
natural gas. This wedge includes strategies that shift from on-site combustion to electricity use.
Strategy Interactions:
- Both efficiency and other decarbonization strategies are applied before fuel switching strategies.
The savings from these strategies are based on planned – not business-as-usual – energy use and
emissions factors.
- Green power purchase rates are applied to the additional electricity load from fuel switching.
- These strategies account for the on-site efficiency savings inherent in switching from combustion to
electricity use, but do not include additional efficiency savings from technologies such as heat
pumps, which are typically powered by electricity. Therefore, these strategies should be applied in
conjunction with the Energy Efficiency Retrofits strategies to fully account for savings associated
with electric heat pump heating systems.
5.1. Commercial/Industrial Electrification
This strategy models the impact of switching from natural gas space and water heating to electric
heating systems in commercial buildings. The savings depend on the planned electricity emissions
factor; if the electricity emissions factor is higher than the natural gas emissions factor, this strategy will
result in added emissions. Since switching from natural gas to electric heating often involves switching
to heat pumps – which are much more efficient than gas-fired boilers – this strategy should be
considered in conjunction with the Energy-Efficient Retrofits strategy.
Assumptions:
- The percentage of commercial/industrial buildings served by natural gas for space and water
heating that have switched to electricity by the specified year aligns with the “Electrification Futures
Study Sensitivity” scenario used in the energy modeling analysis conducted as part of Xcel Energy’s
Integrated Resource Planning process for 2020-2034.58 This analysis uses assumptions derived from
the national Electrification Futures Study (EFS) led by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory to
“explore the impacts of widespread electrification in all U.S. economic sectors.”59
Eden Prairie Climate Action Plan 2020 29
2020 2030 2040 2050
Participation Rates 0% 9% 38% 70%
- The energy savings rate from switching from natural gas to electric heating is 20%. This is based on a
thermal efficiency of 80% for natural gas-fired equipment and 100% for electric.60 The actual energy
savings will vary based on the baseline and replacement technologies (electric heat pumps can
achieve efficiencies of over 400%). However, this strategy accounts only for the inherent efficiency
differences between on-site combustion and electricity, and not for specific technologies.
- The percentage of natural gas used for space and water heating is 89%, which is average for
commercial buildings in the West North Central region of the Midwest.61
5.2. Residential Electrification
This strategy models the impact of switching from natural gas space and water heating to electric
heating systems in residential buildings. The savings depend on the planned electricity emissions factor;
if the electricity emissions factor is higher than the natural gas emissions factor, this strategy will result
in added emissions. Since switching from natural gas to electric heating often involves switching to heat
pumps – which are much more efficient than gas-fired furnaces – this strategy should be considered in
conjunction with the Appliance, Equipment, and Fixture strategy.
Assumptions:
- The percentage of residential buildings served by natural gas for space and water heating that have
switched to electricity by the specified year aligns with the “Electrification Futures Study Sensitivity”
scenario used in the energy modeling analysis conducted as part of Xcel Energy’s Integrated
Resource Planning process for 2020-2034.62 This analysis uses assumptions derived from the
national Electrification Futures Study (EFS) led by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory to
“explore the impacts of widespread electrification in all U.S. economic sectors.”63
2020 2030 2040 2050
Participation Rates 2% 17% 55% 97%
- The energy savings rate from switching from natural gas to electric heating is 20%. This is based on a
thermal efficiency of 80% for natural gas-fired equipment and 100% for electric.64 The actual energy
savings will vary based on the baseline and replacement technologies (electric heat pumps can
achieve efficiencies of over 400%). However, this strategy accounts only for the inherent efficiency
differences between on-site combustion and electricity, and not for specific technologies.
- The percentage of natural gas used for space and water heating is 93%, which is the average for

- As an efficiency strategy, Mode Shift is applied before the decarbonization strategy of Electric
Vehicles.
- The electric vehicles strategy is dependent on Xcel Energy’s Planned Emissions Reduction, but is not
assumed to be covered by on-site photovoltaics or green power purchase.
6.1. Mode Shift
This strategy involves reducing vehicle travel within city boundaries through increased walking, biking,
transit ridership, ride-sharing, trip efficiency, and telecommuting. It impacts passenger cars as well as
light- and heavy-duty trucks.
Assumptions:
- An 8.6% reduction from the baseline is derived from the estimated regional change in daily VMT per
resident by 2040 due to all changes made to the regional transit system.66 This model assumes
additional savings due to the greater-than-average impact of the Southwest Light Rail and
SouthWest Transit Prime MD on Eden Prairie (as compared to the region as a whole) in addition to
the build-out of the City’s bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure network, rideshare technology
further advancing, autonomous vehicle implementation, use of bike/scooter share systems, and
telecommuting.
Percent reduction in VMT/capita from 2017:
2020 2030 2040 2050
VMT reduction 1% 7% 10% 14%
6.2. Electric Vehicles
Driving electric rather than gasoline or diesel vehicles can provide significant greenhouse gas emission
reductions, with increasing reductions expected in Minnesota as the electricity grid becomes less
carbon-intensive. This strategy focuses on electrifying the passenger cars and light- and heavy-trucks
that drive within the city.
Assumptions:
- By 2050, all vehicles driving within City boundaries will be electric. This assumes a rapid
electrification of the transportation sector that outpaces what would be achieved under current
vehicle replacement rates.
Percentage of vehicles that drive within City boundaries that are electric by the specified year:
2020 2030 2040 2050
Passenger Vehicles 5% 30% 50% 100%
Light Trucks 0% 15% 50% 100%
Heavy Trucks 0% 15% 50% 100%
- For passenger cars the emissions reductions associated with switching from gasoline to electricity is
based on an emissions factor of 326.9 g CO2e/mile for gasoline, a 2017 emissions factor of 142.1 g
CO2e/mile for electric, and future electric emissions reductions based on Xcel Energy’s planned
emissions reductions through 2034 and goal of carbon-free electricity by 2050.67,68,69 In accordance
with the baseline data calculations, this strategy accounts for emissions from fuel feedstock
production and refining, but not vehicle and battery manufacturing.

Emissions reduction from switching from gasoline to electric:
2020 2030 2040 2050
Passenger Cars 59% 88% 91% 100%
- Emissions reductions for light and heavy trucks switching from gasoline or diesel to electric are
assumed to be comparable to passenger cars.
6.3. Total Estimated Travel Emissions Reduction
Through the strategies of mode shift, electric passenger vehicles, electric light trucks, and electric heavy
trucks, travel in Eden Prairie could attain an emissions reduction of 387,664 tonnes of CO2e by 2050.
This represents 38.6% of all emissions in the Eden Prairie business-as-usual model. Predicted results for
each strategy in the travel category are detailed in Figure 13 - Estimated Travel Emissions Reduction.
Figure 13 - Estimated Travel Emissions Reduction
6.4. Travel Emissions Reduction Actions
Several actions will need to be taken to achieve the desired results outlined in the travel emission
reduction strategies. These actions will target transportation behaviors to reduce the number of vehicle
miles traveled as well as work to upgrade the types of vehicle son the road. Recommended actions have
been grouped under the categories of encouragement, regulation, incentive or leadership. Details for
all recommended actions are listed in Table 7 - Travel Actions.

7. WASTE
Though emissions caused by waste management are only a small percentage of the community’s total
emissions, waste reduction and diversion can be a cost-effective strategy that visibly engages the entire
community in climate action. In addition to reducing the emissions from waste management, minimizing
waste also results in upstream emissions savings by reducing the impacts of harvesting, manufacturing,
and transporting goods and food.
General assumptions:
- In accordance with ICLEI’s U.S. Community Protocol, the community’s waste emissions only
represent the management of municipal solid waste (e.g. from landfills, resource recovery facilities,
etc.). Upstream emissions from harvesting, manufacturing, and transporting goods and foods are
intended to be accounted for within the community in which these activities occur.
- Savings from reducing vehicle emissions associated with waste management should be accounted
for in the Vehicle Travel Mode Shift strategy.
7.1. Waste Reduction and Diversion
This strategy involves comprehensively reducing emissions from managing municipal solid waste (MSW)
generated within city boundaries. This can be achieved through a combination of reducing MSW and
using less carbon-intensive management methods (e.g. recycling, composting).
Assumptions:
Eden Prairie Climate Action Plan 2020 34
- By 2050, net-zero emissions are generated from the management of municipal solid waste
generated in the city.
Percent reduction from 2017 emissions from the management of municipal solid waste:
2020 2030 2040 2050
Waste emissions
reduction 63% 75% 85% 100%
7.2. Total Estimated Waste Emissions Reduction
Through the strategies of reduction and diversion, waste in Eden Prairie could attain an emissions
reduction of 21,360 tonnes of CO2e 2050. This represents 2.1% of all emissions in the Eden Prairie
business-as-usual model. Predicted results for this strategy are detailed in Figure 14 - Estimated Waste
Emissions Reduction.
Figure 14 - Estimated Waste Emissions Reduction
7.3. Waste Emissions Reduction Actions

Eden Prairie Climate Action Plan 2020 36
SUMMARY
By 2050, Eden Prairie’s community-wide business-as-usual emissions are predicted to total 1,028,901
tonnes of CO2e. These emissions, in order of the largest generating source, will come from travel,
commercial/industrial electricity and natural gas usage, residential electricity and natural gas usage, and
waste. To achieve a 2050 zero carbon emission goal several strategies have been identified in the
categories of commercial/industrial efficiency, residential efficiency, electric grid mix changes,
renewable energy, fuel switching in buildings, travel, and waste. Combined, these strategies have the
ability to reduce total carbon emissions by over 1,000,000 tonnes.
The strategies that will need to be employed to achieve this reduction include energy code
enforcement, net-zero energy buildings, energy-efficient retrofits, behavior change, Xcel Energy’s
planned emissions reduction, on-site renewable electricity, green power purchases, at-use fuel
switching, travel mode shift, fleet electrification, and waste reduction and diversion. In support of these
strategies the City will need to take several actions that encourage, regulate, incentivize, or
demonstrative via leadership ways to accomplish significant decarbonization of our community’s energy
usage.
Combined, these efforts will require critical partnerships with homeowners, businesses, nonprofit
organizations, other regulatory agencies, Xcel Energy, CenterPoint Energy, and the private sector
advancement of emerging technologies. Many steps have already been taken which position the City
well to be a leader in community-wide carbon reduction, but there will need to be a sustained push to
encourage, regulate, incentivize and lead as the plan is implemented over the next 30 years. At key
milestones the City will need to evaluate progress in meeting planned emission reduction goals and
retool as necessary. It is recommended that the regional indicators presented in this report be collected
and compared to planned targets every two years until 2030, then every five years thereafter.
While it is the goal of EP CAP to achieve total communitywide decarbonization by 2050, efforts that
work to achieve this goal ahead of 2050 should be sought out and diligently pursued. Furthermore, The
City shall make periodic updates to the CAP after communitywide emission data is collected to ensure
the 2050 goal is achieved or to accelerate achievement to a more near term date.

18 Ibid. Based on discussions with Minnesota agency staff, the CSEO analysis estimates the contribution of different
technologies toward achieving net-zero energy in 2030. Energy efficiency is estimated to comprise 78% of the
required commercial electricity savings and 90.9% of the required commercial natural gas savings. Since
commercial buildings typically use relatively equal amounts of electricity and natural gas, an unweighted average is
used to estimate the total energy savings achievable through efficiency.

20 Annual savings from participation in Xcel Energy’s conservation programs were calculated out to 2050 by the
Center for Energy and Environment and provided through e-mail correspondence with LHB. These calculations
reflect the savings from program participation within the specified year; to calculate the total savings these
numbers are adjusted to account for the ongoing savings expected from past program participation.
